The Jiangling Mansion of the Yongle Dynasty, here is the outpost of the Yongle Dynasty, and the entire Yongle Dynasty has laid the territory from Ninghang Mansion to Jiangling Mansion, because the geographical location of Ninghang Mansion is the best, and it is also convenient for Fang La to continue to conquer Zhejiang Yongbo Town, and the Yongle Dynasty set up the capital in Ninghang Mansion.

Today's Ninghang Mansion has no chance to capture Zhejiang Yongbo Town because of Yunze's defeat of Zhejiang Yongbo Town. Fang La had intended to change the capital to Gangneung Mansion, but because Wang Yin rebelled and took his throne, Wang Yin had no idea of going to Gangneung to set the capital for the time being.

After all, he is now secretly controlled by Yun Ze, although he has the heart to be independent, but he also knows that Yun Cheng can't afford to provoke him, if Yun Ze wants to destroy him, he will definitely sweep him away with the power of thunder.

Moreover, because he found his wife and daughter. Also not so enthusiastic about rights. He even thought that if he could become one with Yun Ze's Cloud City earlier, he wouldn't need to worry about it anymore.

However, although he did not transfer the capital to Gangneung Mansion, the Yongle Dynasty's troops in Gangneung Mansion also had 50,000 troops, plus the scattered troops of several surrounding prefectures, there were 100,000 people.

Originally, the Yongle Dynasty was to guard against Li Zheng, the king of the north, and the area of Liangshan Shuibo on Shandong Road was controlled by Hu, Zhu Erzhuang and Liangshan, but almost all the remaining Shandong roads were under the control of Li Zheng, the king of the north, and the number of troops was also sixty or seventy thousand.

It's just that the king of the north has no military talent, and his generals are not of great use, so even if he knows that the Yongle Dynasty is on his side of the territory, he never thinks of conquering it.

This also allowed the Yongle Dynasty to enjoy a rare period of peace, but this peace was broken by the arrival of the Jin army not long ago.

The Jin army of this expedition had a strength of 150,000, led by Wanyan Zongbi, and there were countless fierce generals under his command, among which there were ten of the most powerful generals.

In addition, the 60,000 troops in the hands of Li Zheng, the king of the north, were also recruited, and a total of 210,000 troops approached Jiangling Mansion. The guard general here is called Yu Zhenhai, who is the most effective general under Wang Yin.

Looking at the 210,000 troops approaching the city, he felt a deep sense of shock and despair in his heart. Although he had never fought with the Jin army, he also knew the prestige of the Jin army, and in this battle, Jiangling City was afraid that it would not be able to be saved, and even the entire Yongle Dynasty would be destroyed.

In front of the army outside the city, Wanyan Zongbi and his fierce generals looked at Jiangling City, and Wanyan Zongbi's face was a little ugly. Even if he fought all the way here, he didn't have a heart of joy.

It was really on Shandong Road that he suffered the losses of Hu, Zhu Erzhuang and Liangshan, which made him still full of unwillingness. He didn't know the specific battle situation, but he vaguely knew that Liangshan was afraid that it was a difficult bone to gnaw.

He lost almost seventy or eighty thousand people on his side, and he was shocked when he thought about it, he didn't want to waste all his energy on Liangshan's side, after all, he killed Liangshan just because he was afraid that Liangshan would mess with him behind his back.

But I'm not really worried that Liang Shan can get him, after all, Liang Shan is still a lot of distance away from Yongle Chao's side. What he feared most was that Liangshan would cut off his supply route.

However, this problem is because of the existence of Li Zheng, the king of the north, so he can be relieved a little. Therefore, he gave up attacking Liangshan, and did not want to lose his 150,000 troops on Liangshan.

Even if he is confident that he will take Liangshan, it makes little sense to take Liangshan at any cost, it is better to let Liangshan isolate him in his Dajin territory first, and wait for his hands to have enough time to slowly clean up Liangshan.

"Dashuai...... Is it to persuade to surrender first? Or a direct siege? At this time, Aliku, who was beside Wanyan Zongbi, looked at the opposite city wall.

The Jin army has always attacked any city, almost always first to persuade surrender, and then to attack the city. Those who do not surrender will enter the city and kill all the people of the city. There are many cities because of this move of the Jin army.

Either the people of the whole city resisted to the death, or they surrendered without a fight. Aliku felt Wanyan Zongbi's depression, and he didn't know if Wanyan Zongbi wanted to use the city in front of him to establish power.

After all, they came all the way, except for the prestige when they were in Jindi, but when they arrived at Shandong Road, they fought extremely aggrieved, and almost lost one-third of the army.

And because of this, Wanyan Zongbi's son Wanyan Lu has been arranged to the rear baggage army. If it weren't for the fact that he was the son of Wanyan Zongbi, Wanyan Law would probably have let Wanyan Zongbi cut it.

"Persuasion...... Those who do not surrender will enter the city and kill all the people! Not a single one to stay! After hearing this, Yan Zongbi suppressed the grievances in his heart, and he said coldly.

Following his voice, the soldiers who were in charge of persuading him to surrender rode towards the gate of Gangneung Fortress in front of him. On the city tower, Yu Zhenhai looked at the Jin soldiers who came below, his eyes flashed, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

The generals under him looked a little nervous, and someone swallowed his saliva and said, "General, I'm afraid they're here to persuade them to surrender, what should we do now?" Surrender or? ”

When Yu Zhenhai heard this, he turned his head to look at this person, then at the other generals, and said lightly: "What do you think, should we surrender or defend to the death?" The message for help has already been sent, and the king should send reinforcements within three days, at least no more than seven days! ”

When the generals heard this, they looked at each other, their eyes were full of hesitation, the Jin army was powerful, and they were really afraid. But as Chinese people, they are also very unwilling to face the invasion of foreign races and let them surrender without a fight.

The soldiers of the Yongle Dynasty came from the common people, and they were all bitter people before, and they were no better than the generals of the Jing Dynasty, who did not know the suffering of the world.

They also knew that if their side fell, even if the Jin army did not slaughter the city, the people in the city were afraid that most of them would be captured, or even more, and these people would become slaves of the Jin people, and life would be worse than death.

In the eyes of the Jin people, the people of the Jing Dynasty were two-legged sheep, and when there was no military rations, the Jin people even killed the people of the Jing Dynasty as military rations.

"General. As...... Come down, we won't be their opponents, if we fight, we will only let the brothers lose their lives in vain, we surrender, and we can still slowly figure it out! ”

The general who spoke first hesitated, but still said what was in his heart. His words made the others frown, and one more chimed in:

"General, I also think it's better to surrender, we don't care about the lives of the people, and if we resist, if the Jin army breaks the city, we will slaughter the city! In this way, we can be regarded as giving the people a way to live, do you say? ”

As soon as this man's words came out, one of the generals said angrily: "What do you mean, aren't you from a common people's background!" , don't think that now that you are a general, you have forgotten your roots. ”

"You said it lightly, our surrender is to give the people a way to live, but such a way to live, do you think the people want it! It's better to live than to die, it's better to die. It is not without hope that we will hold on to this city. ”

"That's right, we are defending this city, even if we can't beat it, we must not let the Jin army kill our compatriots, we are from the people of Kuhaha. How can you forget your duty. ”

"Right...... I'm also in favor of holding to the death, General, you can say something, if you are in favor of defending to the death, we will follow you to the death, and if you want to surrender, then we ...... Surrender with you too! ”

Most of the generals chose to defend to the death, but in the end, they still gave the choice to Yu Zhenhai.

Yu Zhenhai looked at the Jin army in front of him, and then glanced back at Jiangling City, looking at the people in the city who were still living in peace under the Jin army, he was inexplicably sure.

If the people are taken captive by the Jin army, the final result is that life is worse than death, or, if he fights, the people of the whole city can continue to live in peace. The worst result is that the whole city will be buried together, and he must not let Jin Jun get his wish, even if he dies, he must make Jin Jun pay enough price.

"Shou...... Brothers, we have suffered from it, we have been slaves, we have suffered the most hardships, and we are looking forward to living in peace in the world, and now, the golden man has deceived us, he wants to enslave us, can we agree! Even if it is death, we must live with dignity, everyone will defend Gangneung with me, and wait for the king to save us! ”

Yu Zhenhai's voice was a little agitated. His words made everyone echo for a while, and the two generals who were in favor of surrender before showed a sense of shame on their faces, and when they looked at each other, their eyes became firm. Joined the solidarity.

At the same time, Yu Zhenhai took the bow and arrow on the side, and aimed the bow at the Jin soldier who had just arrived under the city wall, and the other party just opened his mouth to shout. Yu Zhenhai's long arrow shot over.

Instigate! The arrow struck the golden soldier at an astonishing speed, through his mouth, and through his skull, and the golden soldier looked at the people on the city wall in shock, his eyes full of shock and disbelief.

He never thought that Jingren would be so fierce that he didn't even give him a chance to persuade him to surrender, and shot him directly in front of his army.

Not far away, Wanyan Zongbi saw this scene, his eyes flashed, and a strong anger made his whole body tremble. The terrifying aura that burst out of his body made the surrounding Jin soldiers feel a chill.

"Hmph...... Since you are looking for death, then this king will fulfill you, and give this king a siege and kill into the city, leaving no one behind! ”

At this time, Wanyan Zongbi felt extremely aggrieved, he wanted to suppress his anger, hoping that the people on the other side could surrender without a fight under the deterrence of his Jin army.

He also had this self-confidence, and felt that with the prestige of his Jin Army and the prestige of his Wanyan Zongbi, he would definitely frighten the generals of this dynasty established by the common people.

But who would have thought that in response to him was a hard slap, and his herald was like this, or in front of his eyes, which made him hurt more than slapping him in the face.

At this time, he just wanted to destroy the city in front of him to vent the hatred in his heart. Following his voice, the generals behind him hurriedly gave the order to siege the city.

The assembled trebuchet has begun to prepare for launch, and the 10,000 people of the front army have already broken through to the city wall, these people are all soldiers under Li Zheng, the king of the north, and Wanyan Zongbi will certainly not let his soldiers go to attack the city.

At the same time, Wanyan Zongbi looked at Aliku beside him and said: "Jiangling City is the gateway of the Yongle Dynasty, the Yongle Dynasty will definitely send reinforcements when it learns that we are attacking the city, you take 50,000 people to block the enemy, be sure to block them, wait for us to take Jiangling City, and then turn back to clean them up, of course, if you can destroy them, it is the best!" ”

When Aliku heard this, he hurriedly took the order and left. The 100,000-strong army of the Jin army remained outside the city of Gangneung, while the main force of the siege was dominated by the 60,000-strong army of the king of the north.

Soon, trebuchets threw bags of explosives made of gunpowder at the walls, banging ...... The explosive bag exploded on the city wall, but the soldiers on the city wall were killed and wounded.

The soldiers besieging the city had already set up the ladder and began to rush up towards the city wall, and the soldiers on the city wall hurriedly began to roll the stone sassholes and pour fire oil down. At the same time, there are people pushing ladders.

It's just that the ladder is too heavy to be pushed over by just a few people, and the soldiers who are besieging the city under the city wall also shoot arrows at the city wall, which makes the Yongle army pushing the ladder suffer countless casualties.

The siege had just begun, and the Yongle Dynasty fell into disadvantage, but none of the soldiers of the Yongle Dynasty retreated, they rose up to resist, and the enemy who rushed to the city wall was beaten down by them.

In the city, hearing the explosion on the city wall, the people who were still stable all looked at the city wall worriedly, and panic and despair flashed in their eyes.

They knew that the Jin army was approaching the city, and the Jin army was coming too fast and too fierce, and the people in the entire city were caught off guard, and they didn't have time to escape from the city at all. Most of the people have nowhere to flee.

One of the little girls with pigtails looked up at her mother innocently and asked suspiciously, "Mother, is it the Jin Army calling?" The Jin army is coming? Are we all going to die...... Ke Er hasn't lived enough, Le'er wants to eat sugar gourds and eat cakes made by her mother. Mother, can I not die! ”

Hearing the little girl's words, the surrounding people were silent for a while, and a deep sadness swelled up on everyone's faces.

If the Jin army breaks the city, regardless of the men and women in the city, the old and weak, the final outcome will be a dead end, especially for children like this little girl, as well as the old and weak, they will be killed by the Jin army first, those who are strong, young, or may survive.

But this child is only five or six years old, and it is the time for innocence and enjoyment of life. They still have a long way to go, but if they meet a golden man, their fate will also end.

There was fear on her face, but more of it was nostalgia, nostalgia for this world, and she was at a loss. There were many children like the little girl, and even the whole people of the city fell into panic and despair.

They only hope that the defenders will be able to stop the Jin army, or someone will come to their rescue, but in the face of the notorious Jin army, do they have the ability to fight? The only person in the whole world who can fight against the Jin people is probably the rumored Lord of Cloud City.

It's a pity that the other party is in the distant Cloud City, so it is impossible for him to appear here at all, and it is impossible for him to come to save them. In the crowd, some young men stood up, and some of them shouted: "To defend our homeland, we will go to the city wall to help, even if we die, it is better than being enslaved by the Jinren!" Death is also buried with the Larkins! ”

As the man's voice sounded, many young and strong people gathered towards the city wall.
