Seeing that he was about to smash Huanglong, he would defeat it in one battle.

But he didn't expect that this group of slaves was too unbearable to build, and the good situation was lost in an instant, not only was they driven out of Qingtang City, but they also lost the city gate that was difficult for the Fei Lian Army to control.

It's not that the Fei Lian Army is not strong, but there are people everywhere, and there are escaped slave soldiers everywhere, and the Fei Lian Army is like facing a rushing countercurrent, and there is no way.

In the end, he could only withdraw from the city in disgrace.

The good situation was ruined.

This is enough to make people angry, and what makes people even more angry is that the escaped slaves are very consciously close to the side of the Song army, and they have no sense of shame, which is a headache.

I knew it earlier, so I let my people go, but whenever the Song army invaded the city, the resistance in Qingtang City would be extinguished by the Song army, even if the jade was burned. Street fighting is as easy as holding a handle for the Song army, because this kind of combat mode is the favorite way of the Song army's equipment.

The military camp commander Zhang Nei, Gao Yu first opened his mouth to admit his mistake: "Renjie, it's all a certain fault, the Feilian Army did not build a defense near the city gate, and when the slave soldiers were defeated, it was too late to build it, and a great opportunity was lost." ”

"I don't blame you, I didn't take into account that the slave soldiers had such poor military discipline, they all attacked the city, and they could still be blasted out."

"Ten thousand, do you want it?"

What can Li Kui do, he is the commander of the battle, and his prestige is only invincible in the Fei Lian army. If you really let Qin Fenglu's officers and soldiers order it to be banned, will you really treat Liu Yannian and the others as clay figures?

Chong Jianzhong suggested: "Why don't you attack the city on an unknown day and let my Deshun army board the city?" Bump, seven cylinders. ”

"I'm afraid this won't work, I just promised the old monk Lobsang to let him reprimand the slave chief. Although these people are not slaves now, if they want to be official, they have to work hard, otherwise the role of the old monk will be small. He couldn't bear to be crushed by others. ”

When Tong Guan said this, he glanced at Li Kui nervously, and then said very unconfidently: "This is what Renjie asked me to say, not my own opinion." ”

Li Kui bowed his head and said: "That's true, if I make a statement, I should kill someone." Now there are too many people in Qingtang, if I go to kill people, it will make people alienated, if they kill each other, it is an internal division. ”

"This method is good, but it's a pity that we and other soldiers are eager to make meritorious contributions."

"The reward will not be less, after this battle, the wealth of the grassland will be redistributed, let's prepare one for the army that stays behind, and the other can be sent to the soldiers. But it's all cattle and sheep, which is more troublesome. ”

"Tong Guan, why don't you touch the cards?"

"I seem to be out of my mind."

……

Outside the tent, Liu Yannian and You Shixiong looked at each other and did not make a sound. But his gaze has softened a lot, and he is not as angry as before

。

Actually, this is mainly because You Shixiong is angry, but Liu Yannian doesn't care.

He is already the deputy envoy of Xuanfu, and he has achieved the ultimate in military generals in the local area. Unless he is summoned to the capital by the emperor, he is promoted to be the commander of the palace, that is, the palace marshal, and he can also be called a captain in private. But this is probably not a beautiful thing he dares to think of, the commander in front of the palace is Han Deqin, and he is still in a position, unless he is taken down. And Han Deqin is deeply trusted by the emperor, and Liu Yannian has no chance at all. It can be said that Liu Yannian has no desire in Qinfeng Road.

Before Li Kui came to Qin Feng Road, Qin Feng Road's tens of thousands of soldiers and horses were all under his command.

If the military general does this part, he has to avoid suspicion.

This kind of thing is to fight for merit, and you can hide if you can.

Otherwise, the emperor should not be able to sleep, and if the emperor can't sleep, he will be unlucky.

As for You Shixiong being angry, he was really anxious. has been an official in Qinfeng Road, and he has never been developed in his life. is already a fast ear in his age, according to the lifespan of Da Song, he is already a long-lived person, maybe he will return to his position that day.

What You Shixiong wants in his life is to be able to get a high-ranking official before returning to his hometown.

He doesn't care about Longtu Pavilion, Tianzhang Pavilion and other pavilions, he can mix it up. The bachelor was too tall for him to think. Straight bachelor, if you're lucky, you'll have it in your dreams. He just wants a four-grade 'to be made' job. Don't underestimate this post, most of the transfer envoys in the Great Song Dynasty do not have this honor. As long as You Shixiong has this honor, he will be satisfied.

When Cai Jing was a transfer envoy in Sichuan, he was given the title of 'Longtu Pavilion to be system', which shows that this post official title is very difficult to get. Of course, with the post of 'Longtu Pavilion to be system', after he dies, the officials will draw up a nickname according to his life and career, and let the emperor give instructions.

After the decision was settled, the Qin sent the holy decree to Cai Jing's mansion, and when he carved the tombstone, he could engrave the name, which was regarded as a posthumous honor.

However, the battle during the day made him feel uncomfortable like a roller coaster, and he felt that his meritorious service was hanging. Not to mention that when he returned to his hometown, he won the honor of 'to be systematic'.

He began to prepare for his death, and the opportunity he finally waited for was gone in a blink of an eye, can he not be in a hurry?

It's just that what he can't understand is that although the military situation discussed in the tent, there are also words that have nothing to do with military affairs, which makes him scratch his head.

You Shixiong raised his head and looked at the burly Liu Yannian, and asked softly, "What are they doing?" It doesn't seem to be all about military intelligence. ”

Liu Yannian said in a low voice: "Play mahjong." But you don't have to worry, Li Kui and they have their own opinions. After all, the weapons of the Fei Lian Army are now terrifying, and it should not be difficult to break the city again. ”

"What mahjong?" You Shixiong has been a local official, and it is understandable that the popular mahjong in the capital does not know.

"It's just a game."

"What, being so lazy, wouldn't it be a great crime to let down Jun En!"

"Who's out there?"

"Hezhou Zhizhou ......"

You Shixiong also wanted Liu Yannian to report to his home, but suddenly found that he was the only one standing outside the handsome tent, and Liu Yannian had already left.

He had no choice but to walk to the handsome tent, it turned out that Li Kui and the others were really playing cards, which was also a pastime. At this time, drawing up a battle plan is nothing but self-deception. In the siege battle, all that can be done is to build siege weapons, and it is not even realistic to send spies.

When You Shixiong saw Li Kui and others slacking off military affairs, he immediately looked angry, pointed at Li Kui and said angrily: "The old man wants to write to His Majesty, impeach Er and others." ”

Li Kui's complexion is relatively dark, and he can't see his joy or anger.

But Tong Guan's face is white, he has never met such an eyeless official in his life, holding chicken feathers as an arrow, and putting his nose on his face.

Li Kui touched the tip of his nose and muttered: "After breaking the city gate tomorrow, let the Hezhou soldiers enter the city first." ”

You Shixiong hesitated, Qin Fenglu's soldiers were good. Even the Xiang army is not bad, mainly because the local people are fierce, and there are many Qiang soldiers, who are brave and good at fighting, and are not afraid of death. And he is also poor, so poor that the monthly salary of the Xiang army can make people willing to die.

Is it a hard hand?

Or in the face of the benefits given by Li Kui, remain unmoved and maintain justice in the world?

You Shixiong's chest rose and fell for a while, and finally he was short of breath and said, "Before the slave soldiers in Qingtang?" ”

"In front of them."

Li Kui nodded in agreement.

You Shixiong didn't bother and turned his back decisively: "I didn't see anything!" ”

After speaking, he left the tent with his hands behind his back leisurely.

Following.

Outside Qingtang City, there are armies out of the camp in the east, west, north and south.

You Shixiong felt that something was wrong, as if he was not going to storm the east gate.

He found Li Kui and asked, "Li Zhizhou, what does this mean?" ”

"Today, the three city gates are stormed, and they don't give the Qingtang King Ali Gu a chance to trap the beast and fight."

These words were righteous, and You Shixiong suddenly felt that he was being put on a stand by Li Kui, and his face was a little ugly. But at the same time, I began to ponder, could it be that Li Kui had a lot of siege methods?

Or did he decide to put all his troops into the battlefield, in case the casualties were too great, wouldn't it be that the old man did a lot of harm for his selfishness?

You Shixiong said in his heart: "Will it increase the casualties, if so, the old man can't bear it." ”

"No, it's still the same as yesterday, this time our army is besieging Qingtang City, just to test the new weapons in the army, and we have to try as many new weapons as the Privy Council's workshop brings. Otherwise, wouldn't this battle be fought in vain? Li Kui was very generous and didn't care about You Shixiong's offense to him: "It's just that You Zhizhou chose a city gate for the Hezhou Army, right?" ”

You Shixiong is not a child, and he can't be bullied casually.

It's just that the title of the predecessor is omitted.

You Shixiong frowned, and said suspiciously: "Which city gate is fine?" ”

"It's nature. It's just a small Qingtang fight, it's already a trapped beast, I really think my army can't break the city? It's just that You Zhizhou also understands that the magnates before Qingtang have not fallen, and if I want to control this anointed land, I will have to work hard. ”

At the end of his speech, You Shi's ambition was clear. Anyway, it's a Qingtang person, and it doesn't matter how much he dies.

He said forcefully; "I want the East Gate."

"Okay."

Fei Lianjun behind Li Kui asked, "What kind of way do you want to break the city?" ”

You Shixiong is stunned, is there any choice for this? He asked cautiously, "Yesterday's thunder was very good." The old man chose to thunder. ”

"Okay."

Li Kui immediately ordered: "Nian Xi, you take the catapult to the south gate and use the fierce fire oil to burn the bomb." Go and select 10,000 slave soldiers to attack the city. ”

"Order!"

After speaking, Li Kui arched his hand to Liu Yannian and said: "There is Liu Xuanfu to suppress the formation." ”

"Out of the way."

The Derong army followed Nian Xi's catapult to the south gate.

"Feng Zhang, you go to the West Gate with a conscienceless cannon and pick 10,000 slave soldiers for the project."

"Order!"

The cannon without conscience is not a way for Li Kui to do, this weapon is thrown very close, only 200 meters, but it can throw a bag of explosives weighing more than 10 catties, and the power is amazing, which can be regarded as making up for the problem that the artillery can only fire solid projectiles. It can be regarded as a variant of a large-caliber mortar gun.

The reason why there is no one in the siege is that Qingtang City does not have a north gate, and the north of the city is a mountain, so there is no way to attack.

After the distribution is in place, the offensive begins.

already had personal experience with the new weapons of the Song army, and Qingtang City was also prepared to deal with it.

A small number of soldiers were arranged at the head of the city, so as not to give the other side the opportunity to kill and wound a large number of soldiers at the head of the city.

At the same time, Ali Gu also prepared mobile heavy cavalry, although there are not many of them, but the effect of using them yesterday is remarkable, and there is no reason not to use them.

At the same time, parts of the streets were blocked.

After the slaves rushed into the city, they robbed and killed people when they saw them, which was simply mad. After sealing off the streets near the mansions, temples, government offices and royal palaces of the powerful in the city, Ali Gu was a little relieved.

In fact, he wanted to surrender, but the Song army now has an obvious advantage, and the result of his surrender will be miserable.

On the contrary, if he can fight back and forth with the Song army and let the Song people know how powerful he is, he will have the confidence that he can surrender more decently.

If you can't beat it, you have to fight it even more, this is the most headache for Ali Gu.

"Great King, the Song army has besieged three city gates, and I am afraid it is about to attack."

"Is the gate blocked?"

"It's all blocked."

Ali asked his attendants to put on his armor, and he was able to face the rumbling explosions near the three gates. But even so, he still felt uncomfortable, and he always felt that something was going to happen.

Suddenly, he saw a fire rising from the south gate.

Aligu's mentality collapsed again, and the corners of his mouth trembled: "Is God going to abandon me?" ”

He couldn't explore whether the gods were gods or not, but he knew that Qingtang City was once again swaying in the wind and rain.

And the movement of the west gate is even greater than that of the east gate.

On the mound outside the city, Li Kui looked into the distance, but his eyesight was still a little lost. I couldn't see the movement of the West Gate at all, but I could hear the explosion, and I could see what seemed to be a cloud of black smoke, but unfortunately I was standing too far away to see clearly. The effect of the cannon without conscience is not as intuitive as that of a close-up observation.

It is lively at the south gate, and the moment the fire rises into the sky, it is clear at a glance.

At the east gate, although the movement was not small, as yesterday, the soldiers successfully attacked the head of the city.

Then when he went down to the city, he found that the gate was blocked.

The moment the news reached the outside of the city, You Shixiong shook and almost fainted. The city gates were blocked, and if they were to be cleared, it would take a long time. It's easy to block, but it's not easy to pick up the blocked stones and wood.

After the siege of several other city gates, there were battle flags waving at the city gates.

Seeing that he was about to attack and enter the city.

You Shixiong suddenly became anxious and ordered the soldiers to clean up as soon as possible.

For a time, Qingtang City was full of battlefields. The slave soldiers, who did not have time to enter through the city gates, went down the city with ropes along the city wall and launched an attack on the defenders inside the city.

"King, the south of the city is dangerous."

"My lord, the gates of the eastern city are about to be opened."

"The King's ......"

"Get out."

Ali was tired, he didn't have long eyes, and he already saw the crumbling city defense. But what can he do, who knows that the Song army will go crazy and not follow yesterday's siege routine?

Ali Gu, who has been deceived emotionally, is also entangled, but there is one person who is more decisive than him.

In the Prime Minister's Mansion near the royal court, the Prime Minister Mu Chi said to the powerful people who were in a hurry to trap beasts: "Everyone, the destruction of Qingtang by the Song people has been revealed. I have to think about the future. ”

"Why don't we do it now?"

The one who spoke was wearing armor, but inside the armor was expensive silk, and his status was obviously noble.

Mu Chi shook his head slightly and said, "The strength of the royal court has not suffered a big loss, so we can only wait for the sake of today." ”

"But which lowly slaves don't care about this, if we don't do it, I'm afraid the outcome will be unpredictable."

Mu Chi insisted: "The strength of the Woo Woo Clan is still there, it's too risky to do it now." Ladies and gentlemen, I have only one request, your people will guard their respective mansions, and I will go to the Daye Temple to see Venerable Ba Rile before speaking. ”

In Daye Temple, the old monk Ba Rile, the monk with the highest status in the Qingtang area, sat down, silently recited the scriptures, and ignored Mu Chiguo in front of him.

After a long time, he sighed and said: "The temple is a pure place, and the old monk does not ask about the world. But under the nest, Ann has finished eggs, I hope you are doing the right thing. ”

"The disciple did this to keep the last bit of seed of my clan."

After Mu Chi walked out of the temple, he said to a group of powerful people who greeted him: "The master has promised to greet General Song, and we can do it." ”

After fighting for half a day, the range of defenders in Qingtang City was repeatedly compressed.

But at this moment, a big change occurred in the Qingtang Palace, Ali Gu stared at Mu Chi angrily, and roared: "You have broken the covenant and will go to hell!" ”

Mu Chi said coldly: "The old man is afraid that if he doesn't agree to the Song people, he will go to hell today." Take ......"

Li Kui also entered the city, and he set up a temporary command post on the tower of the eastern city to observe the battlefield up close.

The city was miserable.

At the same time, the slaves were fierce.

At this moment, a group of Qingtang warriors escorted an old man and a monk from the street, led by a Qingtang man who could speak official language, and Li Kui couldn't hold his face a little when he spoke: "My lord, take the supernatural powers, let's descend!" ”
