The generals of the Zhenjiang Army reacted surprisingly unanimously to Li Jiong's proposal for negotiations: they scoffed.

Why did you go earlier?

Now that we have beaten the nest, and seeing that the mountains and rivers have been exhausted, you know that you have to talk, what is the bloody battle in front of you?

If you want to negotiate, you can also disarm the whole army and surrender the city.

When Li Zhi's envoy heard this, his face turned green. Disarm and surrender? What's the point of talking about that? He hesitated for a long time, and asked weakly: "His Royal Highness the King of Jin......"

Du Jian glared at him: "What Your Highness?" Anti-thief Li Jiong! ”

Xiong Yunjie followed up and snorted coldly: "What the hell do you want to ask, hurry up!" ”

The envoy still can't understand why he, as a well-informed messenger who has a front station for the King of Jin, has to face so many fierce and vicious generals.

He was stunned for a moment, then stammered in response, "Your Highness...... Oh no, General Li, we General Li don't want to surrender, we want to cooperate......"

"Cooperation?" Jigriz couldn't help but laugh: "Don't you think it's funny? We have traveled thousands of miles from the ghost desert in Western Xinjiang to kill here, just because you traitors are the enemies of the Zhenjiang Army, and Li Jiong is the murderer behind the murder of He Jingming. Cooperation, he's crazy, right? ”

The envoy was also eloquent, and although he was terrified, he still had the courage to defend at this time: "This general's words are wrong. As the saying goes, those who know the times are Junjie. For example, if there is chaos for a long time today, the court has become elbows and armpits, the life and death of the emperor are unknown, and the queen is Si Chen, which is the precursor of Shengtang is about to fall into the abyss. We, General Li, have a social heart in our hearts, and are willing to abandon our past suspicions with Dadu Protector and join forces to deal with the demon queen Cheng Wen, isn't this a measure for the benefit of the country and the people? ”

"!" Du Jian said coldly: "Li Jiong's family still has Sheji? He's thinking about the emperor's throne! Don't talk nonsense, hurry back and tell Li Jiong and ask him to wash his neck. He can't hide from the hatred of Commander He! Even if he escapes to the ends of the earth, Lao Tzu will kill him! ”

Looking at Du Jian's appearance of wanting to eat people, the envoy asked with a bitter face: "General, when the villain is here, he has to see Dadu to protect him." His old man sent a message, and the villain could go back to make a business. ”

Xiong Yunjie shouted: "With your ruined army, you still want to meet our adults? Didn't General Du already make it very clear just now that Li Zhi must be severely punished, and there is no room for negotiation! ”

The envoy struggled to himself: "Generals, it is a well-known thing that the queen and Dadu are not in harmony. If she is in power, she will definitely let the imperial army deal with you, so why waste her precious combat power on us? ”

Du Jian waved his hand: "This doesn't bother you." Instead of worrying about the safety of our Zhenjiang army, it is better to take care of yourselves first. Go back and tell the rebels to wait, our army will start a full-scale siege of the city early tomorrow morning, and the chance to surrender is only before dawn. If you don't want to die with Li Jiong, you will tie him up and surrender out of the city! ”

Hearing this, the envoy couldn't help but be shocked, and hurriedly said with a white face: "General Du, think twice!" Once you and I start a war, it will definitely be a never-ending duel, and it will not do your army any benefit at all......"

At this moment, a loud voice suddenly came from outside the tent: "The complete elimination of the rebels is the greatest benefit of the Zhenjiang Army!" ”

With these words, the generals in the tent stood up one after another, and responded in unison: "See Dadu Hu!" ”

The envoy was startled, and quickly turned his head, just in time to see Li Jiangyao, who was dressed in armor, striding into the tent.

Before he could say hello, he only heard Li Jiangyao say lightly: "You better hurry up, our army's plan of action has changed, and the city will be attacked in half an hour." You bring a message to Li Bing for me, and ask him not to kill himself, and he must leave the dog's life to me to take it himself. ”

"Ready-to-go!"

With the commander's order, a huge fireball rose up all over the sky, like a star in the night sky, and flew quickly to the head of Hangzhou.

For the first time in this time, the Zhenjiang army organized more than 3,160 trebuchets to fire fiercely around the city on all sides. The fire oil bombs and boulder bullets were like torrential rain, wave after wave, round after round, continuously, smashing Hangzhou's city defense to pieces and slamming into flames.

This momentum alone has already made the rebels defending the city fearful.

More than half an hour of trebuchets covered the blow, almost completely destroying the strong and tight defense line of the city, nearly 4,000 defenders were either killed or wounded, and the rebels were almost unable to gain a foothold in the city.

Ye Rongcheng launched a ruthless attack, and decided that the few remaining Xuanjia elites in the police station would venture out of the city to raid the trebuchet troops of the Zhenjiang Army, and strive to win back a game and defeat these terrible long-range killers.

Unexpectedly, his plan had been expected by Li Jiangyao, and as soon as the rebel cavalry in charge of the trebuchet left the city, they ran into the iron defense line composed of hoplites.

The huge shield stood on the ground, and countless spears stabbed obliquely from behind the shield wall like a dense forest, which made people shudder to look at it. In addition, the giant crossbow and bow and arrow phalanx were in full firepower, and from a distance of several hundred paces, they took the lead in launching a fierce attack on the rebels who left the city.

No matter how strong the Xuanjia elite is, after all, it is still flesh and blood, and it also has the feelings and judgments of normal people. Facing the dense rain of arrows from the other side like now, directly impacting the heavy infantry phalanx like an iron wall is completely in vain.

More and more knights in armor grabbed the reins of their advance and stopped in front of the Zhenjiang army's defensive line.

Despair, deep despair.

This is Ye Rongcheng in the city and the Xuanjia army outside the city, the only mood at this time.

In mid-air, the oil bombs and boulder bullets were still whistling and galloping, without the slightest intention of stopping, and in the direction of the two wings of the Zhenjiang army, countless iron cavalry had already jumped out, running around the arc to attack the flanks and rear of the rebels, with a very obvious intention: they wanted to completely destroy the Xuanjia army that had left the city.

If you hesitate for a while, the back road will be completely cut off!

Ye Rongcheng was suddenly entangled.

If it is not withdrawn, the valuable combat power may be lost on the spot; Withdrawing, not only can not remove the threat of the opponent's long-range weapons, but it may even be chased into the city by the Zhenjiang Iron Cavalry.

Ye Rongcheng, who has fought for so many years and met countless opponents, truly realized Li Jiangyao's awesomeness. This kind of gap in absolute strength makes the opponent appear to be at ease and take the lead step by step when arranging troops, and he will always fall into a dilemma everywhere.

He hesitated for a moment, finally slammed the battlements hard, ordered the horn to be blown, and before the first army of the wind could rush up, let the soldiers and horses outside the city quickly shrink and retreat, and return to the safety of the city.

In this way, the elite troops who raided the city did not even destroy a trebuchet of the Zhenjiang army, but they lost thousands of lives in vain and fled in a hurry.

The terrifying siege force of the Zhenjiang Army is really beyond the imagination of all the rebels.

In other words, Li Jiangyao is serious this time.

In the face of the imperial capital city guarded by the Turks, hundreds of thousands of Zhenjiang troops surrounded but did not fight, like an old monk calming down, but did not release an arrow, did not throw a stone, only with clever strategy and the victory of the Weinan Campaign, Ashina Jin was forced into a desperate situation.

Now, Li Jiangyao is in the city of Hangzhou, in order to avenge his teacher He Jingming, there is no need to hesitate to weigh it, and it is a thunderous momentum as soon as he makes a move.

After the hoplites and ironclad cavalry joined forces to drive the enemy back to the city, the trebuchet force continued to rise. The fire oil bombs personally deployed by Lei Yu, the second son of Perak Hall, seemed to be endless, and they rushed all over the world, smashing the city of Hangzhou unspeakably miserable.

Clear-eyed people have already seen at this time that this is actually a replica of the tactics of the Weinan Battle against the Turkic army: use superior forces to carry the engagement line, and then through long-range output, constantly kill and injure the enemy, and at the same time consume and disintegrate the opponent's will to fight.

In a nutshell, if the rebels can't rush, they can only be beaten honestly.

When the eastern sky was white, the fierce long-range attack finally gradually stopped, and through the faint morning light, the city wall of Hangzhou, shrouded in mist, was full of ruins and devastation.

Just by the boulder smashed out of the gap, the south, east, west, and northwest sides are combined, and there are eleven places. At its widest, it even exceeded the size of the city gates.

As soon as the trebuchet stopped, the deafening sound of war drums sounded. Thousands of Zhenjiang soldiers wearing iron armor and helmets, holding long swords and axes, lined up in a neat line, stepping on drums, and approached the city wall.

The sun shone on the armor and weapons, glittering.

-

"You mean we can't even hold on for a day?" Li Zhi looked at Ye Rongcheng blankly: "This king's Hangzhou is so fragile?!" ”

Ye Rongcheng shook his head with a painful expression: "Your Highness, Li Jiangyao's methods are too ruthless. Thousands of trebuchets bombarded continuously all night, and now the city defense is full of gaps, and the people we prepared in advance have no time to carry out emergency repairs. At the moment, the brothers are trying to close the gap, but ...... This is not the way to go, and it will not stop the fierce charge of the hoplites. ”

Li Wei sat back in his chair and looked out of the door in distraction, and the shouts of killing on the city wall defense line were higher and higher, and they could be heard clearly.

Ye Rongcheng looked at Li Jiong, who was at a loss, and said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, please hurry up and make a decision." At this time, there is still a glimmer of life to break through, if it is too late, and the Zhenjiang army controls the city gates, we will really be cornered. ”

"Breakout? Where else can this king go? Li Jiong asked disheartenedly.

"It's okay to go to the south, and it's okay to go to the west to join Xie Bao." Ye Rongcheng said: "Anyway, you can't wait for death here." ”

Li Bing glanced up at the other party, and a trace of despair flashed in his eyes: "We took the main force of the Jin army to guard the city of Hangzhou, which has been operating for many years and is impregnable, but we can't hold it even for a day and a night, what can we do if we flee to the south?" It's just like a lost dog, chased and killed by Li Jiangyao all the way. It's even more unrealistic to go to Xie Bao, is Murong Xue willing to let us go? ”

Ye Rongcheng said in a deep voice: "When Minister Lao left, didn't he leave a letter for His Royal Highness?" As long as you try to persevere, he has his own way to turn things around. ”
