Jiang Xia stopped beside Shi Yu, shook his head and said, "I don't dare, the more this kind of big thing is calculated, the greater the loss." If my master hadn't lost too much, I'm afraid he wouldn't have vomited blood and died so early. ”

Shi Yu retracted his gaze and continued to look beyond the city wall, "Fortunately, no, I am really a little scared to hear any bad news again." ”

Jiang Xia looked at Shi Yu's side face, and after hesitating for a moment, he still spoke: "So, Lord Jing really went to the west?" ”

Shi Yu nodded, "Yes, in this situation, even if the overseer sends back the news, I won't be able to receive it." ”

"Although there is a big murderer, it may not be impossible to turn evil into good fortune, Lord Jing is not an ordinary person, and the emperor doesn't have to worry too much." Jiang Xia comforted.

Shi Yu exhaled slowly and smiled again, "I understand, don't worry." What I'm going to do now...... It is to concentrate all your energy and defend the crane city. ”

Jiang Xia followed Shi Yu's line of sight and looked out of the city, the sun had completely set, leaving only a few faint afterglows, twilight, looking into the distance, everything seemed to be shrouded in shadows, which made people feel depressed.

"Your Majesty, have you ever thought that it is the destiny of heaven in case the Jin army is defeated one day?"

"Destiny?" Shi Yu turned his head and raised his eyebrows to look at her.

Jiang Xia sighed, "At the beginning, my master calculated that the fortunes of the Li Kingdom had been exhausted, and it was the destiny of Heaven to die in the country. Although he worked hard and exhausted all kinds of means, in the end, he still failed to change the fate of Li Guo. In case of...... The defeat of the Tianjin army is also the destiny of heaven? ”

"So do you think your master is wrong, and he should have obeyed the destiny of heaven from the beginning?" Shi Yu asked rhetorically.

Jiang Xia was stunned and did not speak.

Shi Yu laughed and said, "Or, if it were you, wouldn't you have made the same choice as your master?" ”

Sighing, Shi Yu looked up at the sky that had completely darkened.

"Before the endgame, I don't know what the destiny is. Just like when you finish calculating the hexagram, you will also add a sentence, which may not be without variables. If everyone believes in the destiny of heaven and acts according to the destiny of heaven, then I am afraid that there will be no change of dynasties and overturning the country in this world.

As long as the ruler of the world firmly holds the Mandate of Heaven, he can use this to fool the people and make them all keep to themselves. But in fact, everything is constantly changing, and where can the so-called destiny really be calculated? ”

Even if Jiang Xia said at this moment, she calculated that the fate of the Heavenly Jin was exhausted, and she would definitely be defeated. However, she still believes that there are many soldiers in this city who are unwilling to be captured.

Jiang Xia was silent for a long time, and finally, he laughed lightly.

"The emperor is right. Even if he glimpsed the destiny of heaven, he was unwilling after all. ”

The night wind blew across the city walls, and the two were silent.

After half a cup of tea, Jiang Xia turned to leave, didn't take a few steps, stopped again, and looked at Shi Yu again.

"Actually, I'm probably the same as my master, there are some things, even if I know that I can't do it, but I still want to do it."

Shi Yu looked at Jiang Xia, who was serious for a moment, and then lowered the city wall with a smile on his lips.

This night, the crane city is waiting for the day.

At dawn on the second day, the army of Beiyuan approached the city as everyone expected.

Xiao Chengfeng, who was dressed in armor, stood on horseback and looked up at Shi Yu on the city wall.

"See you again, Emperor Tianjin." The tone was smiling, as if greetings.

After speaking, his eyes swept over the city wall, and he smiled again.

"Why don't you see your country's Yu Wangye, is it ...... He was also poisoned? ”

"Despicable and shameless, he even dared to mention poisoning!" Wang Ye's face was pale.

"Soldiers are not tired of cheating, not to mention, I heard that the grain was personally moved back by General Wang." Xiao Chengfeng's tone mocked.

Shi Yu glanced at the angry Wang Ye and motioned for him to calm down.

"The Emperor of Beiyuan is really ruthless enough, but is it really cost-effective to use the grain and grass that Beiyuan urgently needs now. I'm afraid that the current grain in Beiyuan may not be able to last even today. ”

Xiao Chengfeng smiled and did not change, "So what, on this battlefield, grain and grass are indeed important, but what is more important is to win." ”

Beiyuan has always been insufficient in terms of grain and grass, and it is better to take a gamble than to find ways to continuously raise grain and grass.

If the Jin army is greatly damaged today, as long as this crane city is captured within two days, there is naturally no need to worry about the problem of grain and grass.

His eyes were cold, Xiao Chengfeng raised his hand, and when he fell, a loud horn sounded, and Beiyuan launched the first round of attacks.

This was the first time that Shi Yu had seen the two armies fighting each other.

The sun pierces the clouds, and the flag hunts.

The soldiers of the northern abyss swept towards the city wall like a wave rolling up on the flat ground, shouting and killing, and smoke and dust billowed out.

On the city wall, countless feathered arrows and large stones that are constantly thrown are like summer rains, covering the sky.

The soldiers of the North Abyss below, holding shields and carrying ladders, although people kept falling, even so, they still followed one after another.

The city gate of Hecheng was so strong that it could not be broken open with wooden pillars, so Beiyuan chose to rely on a cloud ladder to climb over the city wall.

Seeing that the cloud ladder was getting closer and closer, Shi Yu glanced at Wang Ye, who gave an order, threw down several jars of fire oil, and hit the cloud ladder.

At the same time, Wang Ye lit the oilcloth wrapped around the arrowhead, took a bow and shot an arrow, and the arrow went straight to the ladder.

With a bang, the fire spread instantly.

"Good!"

On the city wall, the soldiers cheered, and several rockets were fired again, destroying the cloud ladder of the northern abyss.

Xiao Chengfeng stared at this scene, and with a wave of his hand, hundreds of crossbowmen approached the city wall under the cover of shields.

The rain of arrows came from the bottom up, giving the Beiyuan soldiers who were besieging the city an opportunity to take advantage of, and the cloud ladder erected the wall of Crane City.

"Push it down now!" The big knife in Wang Ye's hand knocked down the arrow that came and opened his mouth sharply.

The soldiers no longer cared about blocking the arrows, and while the soldiers of the North Abyss were still climbing, they used their spears to push down the cloud ladder.

In the midst of the chaotic arrows, people kept falling, and people kept relaying.

With a bang, the ladder toppled over, but the next moment, another one came up again.

The smell of blood and smoke and dust spread together, obscuring the sky and the sun.

The soldiers of the Celestial Wings resisted the first wave of attacks almost with all their might, but then the second wave and the third wave struck again.

"It can't go on like this." Shi Yu gritted his teeth and looked at Wang Ye, "Let all the fire oil be brought up." ”

"Your Majesty, ...... tomorrow"

"If you can't stop it today, how can you come tomorrow. Xiao Chengfeng was determined to attack the city with all his might, if he couldn't completely defeat the spirit of the Beiyuan soldiers, the next offensive would only be more fierce. ”

There is already a huge disparity in troops, and if it continues like this, the soldiers will not be able to stop it!

"Good!" Wang Ye spoke.

Soon, all the remaining oil was brought up.

This time, the oil did not smash into the moving ladder, but poured it directly down the moment the ladder reached the city wall.

The flames were filled, and the ladder was lit with the soldiers of the Northern Abyss who were climbing.

The wails of pain were sharp and piercing, but at this moment, no one would be soft on the enemy.

One after another the ladders were lit, and the wails aroused the instinctive fear in the hearts of the people, and the sound of rushing and killing was no longer as fierce as just now, and finally, Beiyuan's sharp energy dispersed!
