Chapter 256: Weizhou is the burial ground that I prepared for Lord Jingdu

Yue Ge frowned tightly and looked at this scene worriedly, "Your Majesty, it seems that Tianjin is completely out of the way, and there is no backhand. If we continue like this, we will probably lose a lot. ”

Xiao Chengfeng naturally saw that the soldiers already had the intention of being afraid and retreating.

On the contrary, it was Tianjin's side, who gave birth to a lonely and sharp spirit in a desperate situation, and his morale became higher and higher.

He did want a quick victory, but he also understood that in this situation, if he wanted to capture Crane City today, he was afraid that it was impossible.

Finally, Xiao Chengfeng spoke, "Withdraw the army." ”

The horn of retreat sounded, and the besieging soldiers retreated, but on the city wall, everyone still looked tense, and none of them could relax their vigilance until the Beiyuan army completely retreated.

Until the Beiyuan army left the city, in the silent and oppressive silence, I don't know who took the lead in cheering, and then the entire city wall was boiling.

"Win! Win! ”

"Hold on, we hold on!"

Soon, above the city wall, the joy spread throughout the Crane City.

Although everyone knew that Beiyuan would not give up and would soon make a comeback, from yesterday to today, everyone had a boulder in their hearts, and this victory was enough for them to breathe for a moment.

But the joy was short-lived, and after the wounded and dead soldiers were settled, the guards on the city walls were rearranged and it was quiet again.

Shi Yu was still standing on the city wall, sniffing the bloody gas that had not dissipated in the air, looking at the scorched earth burned under the city wall, and his legs began to weaken after realizing it.

Although they won, some soldiers died in the war.

Although they won, everything is far from over, and the next defense of the city will be even more difficult.

His eyes swept over the scattered arrows and blood stains around him that had not yet had time to be cleaned up, Shi Yu's heart trembled a little, and his stomach was a little overturned.

"Your Majesty!" Behind him, Wang Ye walked briskly up the city wall.

Shi Yu suppressed the discomfort in his heart and looked at him, "Have you counted everything?" ”

Wang Ye nodded, his face solemn, "Your Majesty, although we won this time, the casualties were not small, according to the current strength, the next time Beiyuan attacks, I am afraid it is very likely that it will not be able to hold it." ”

The fire oil in the city has also been depleted, and the number of arrows is only one-third, plus the number of troops is far inferior to the northern abyss......

Wang Ye gasped.

"I see." Shi Yu nodded, she had already expected this situation.

"The wounded soldiers are properly settled, and the poisoned soldiers ......"

Wang Ye hurriedly replied, "Your Majesty, don't worry, the doctors in the city, the military doctors, and Imperial Doctor Lin are all taking care of them." Although it still hasn't been detoxified, there is no danger for the time being. ”

"Okay." Shi Yu answered, glanced around the city wall again, and then walked down.

The night came quickly, and that night, it rained heavily.

The raindrops of beans crackled down, like the sound of soldiers, and everyone was solemn when they heard it.

Until the next day, although the rain stopped, the inside and outside of the city became very humid, and the air was still filled with rain and fog.

Probably to ease the atmosphere, Wang Ye sighed with emotion, fortunately, he used up all the fire oil yesterday and resisted Beiyuan's attack, otherwise even if it was left today, I am afraid the effect would not be strong.

In this regard, Shi Yu smiled in agreement, and then climbed the city wall again.

Half an hour later, Beiyuan's army once again approached the city.

Xiao Chengfeng sat on the horse, he didn't wear armor today, and changed back to the swaggering red clothes when he was in Tianjin.

Shi Yu raised his eyebrows and looked at him, "What, Emperor Beiyuan wants to make a good fortune?" ”

Xiao Chengfeng smiled unruly, "Emperor Tianjin can think so, after all, today, I will be stationed in this Crane City, which is also a good thing." ”

Shi Yu sneered, "Emperor Beiyuan is inevitably too confident, have you forgotten the scene of yesterday's fiasco and retreat?" ”

"If I guessed correctly, yesterday's battle has consumed a lot of materials and even troops in this city, and now this Crane City really has the strength to resist me?"

Xiao Chengfeng said in a playful tone, looking at Shi Yu with his eyes, and suddenly laughed again.

"There is another piece of news, I forgot to tell Emperor Tianjin yesterday."

In Shi Yu's silent gaze, Xiao Chengfeng said leisurely: "What does Emperor Tianjin think, how is Jing Heng's situation in Weizhou now?" ”

One sentence made Shi Yu's pupils shrink, and his face changed suddenly, "What do you mean?" ”

Xiao Chengfeng looked at Shi Yu's reaction with satisfaction, "I just kindly want to remind Emperor Tianjin, don't waste any more thoughts, wait for Jing Heng to come back." From the moment he left for Weizhou, everything was as I expected. Or, from the very beginning, Weizhou was the burial place that I prepared for Lord Jingdu! ”

Shi Yu's face turned pale in an instant, and he gritted his teeth and stared at Xiao Chengfeng, "What did you do?" ”

"My reinforcements are indeed preparing to attack Weizhou, but after you burned the grain and grass, I changed my mind, not only to capture Weizhou, but also ......" Xiao Chengfeng's eyes suddenly turned cold, overflowing with killing intent, "I must kill Jing Heng!" ”

Seeing Shi Yu's face change greatly, Wang Ye hurriedly spoke: "Your Majesty, you must not be affected by these words, Lord Jing is not an ordinary person, and there will definitely be no accident, not to mention that even if the Beiyuan Army really reaches Weizhou, it may not be able to capture it, Lord Jing will definitely ......"

"If the garrison generals of Weizhou are already used by me!" Xiao Chengfeng interrupted Wang Ye.

As soon as these words came out, not only Shi Yu, but even Wang Ye's face couldn't help but change.

Xiao Chengfeng glanced at Yue Ge, and the latter immediately spoke: "Yan Muqi, the general of the Weizhou garrison, was transferred two years ago, but because his mother was old, her health was not good, she couldn't withstand the long journey, and her children were still young, so she didn't move her family over. Now more than a dozen members of the Yan family are all guests in Beiyuan. ”

"Despicable and shameless!" Wang Ye was furious.

actually used his family as a threat to kidnap the old mother and children, Beiyuan was really mad!

Xiao Chengfeng smiled contemptuously, not caring about Wang Ye's scolding at all, but just looked at Shi Yu with peach blossom eyes.

"The first order I gave to Yan Muqi was not to let him open the city gate and let the Beiyuan army enter the city, but to let him kill Jing Heng at all costs." Xiao Chengfeng paused, and the smile in his tone became stronger, "Emperor Tianjin thinks that Jing Heng can guess that the dignified general of the Weizhou garrison is actually obeying my orders." ”

Xiao Chengfeng's words made the last trace of blood on Shi Yu's face fade cleanly.

Even Wang Ye couldn't help but look at Shi Yu, wanting to seek an answer.

"Jing Heng does suspect that there may be people from Beiyuan infiltrating Weizhou, but ......" Shi Yu took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and did not continue.

However, they really didn't guess that the problem was actually the garrison general!

The whole person seemed to be surrounded by great fear, and Shi Yu's figure couldn't help but shake.

"Your Majesty, be careful!" Wang Ye hurriedly supported Shi Yu.

The surrounding defenders all looked at Shi Yu, and the emperor's reaction made them couldn't help but worry, and for a while, the momentum of defending the city obviously changed.

Under the city wall, Xiao Chengfeng watched this scene with satisfaction.

raised his hand, ready to give the order to attack the city, but Shi Yu suddenly looked at him......
