Chapter 24: Attack on the Royal Capital

Chapter Twenty-Four: The Destruction of Rock City

At this moment, in Rock City, the soldiers defending the city have been hungry for almost two days, and the soldiers have asked more than once when the grain and grass will arrive. By the time they knew that they were completely surrounded on all sides, the defenders were in complete despair.

"Captain Wu, I'm so hungry, I feel like I'm about to faint......"

"Me too, in the haze I seem to see my milk beckoning to me, I'm really going to die, I can't eat enough if I'm not a soldier, I still can't eat enough when I'm a soldier, I guess I'm going to starve to death......

"Second baby, if you insist on it, the general has already gone to find the city lord, and the food is estimated to be coming, hold on!"

"But Captain Wu, can the generals really bring rice?"

"That's natural, our general said that there must be one, when did he deceive us, you can't faint, again... Hold on!"

"Woo... Long... I seem to see rice in the sky beckoning to me again... Captain Wu, Chief, Chief!!, Chief, ......Chief, Chief

In the city lord's mansion, more than a dozen generals crowded at the door of the city lord's room, and the first one said in a deep voice: "Please come out and see the city lord! The soldiers have not eaten food for two days. ”

"Please retreat a few generals! The city lord has something to do, and he is not in the mansion at the moment," a guard said respectfully to the generals.

Suddenly, a stubble general rushed over, knocked over the soldiers with one punch, and said angrily: "Damn, when I was fighting, I was urging the good news every day! When the soldiers under Lao Tzu had no food to eat, they told Lao Tzu that they were not there! I came four times and told Lao Tzu that I was not there, who are you fooling! If you don't come out today, Lao Tzu will demolish this house, and Brother Lao Tzu will be born and die, and now Lao Tzu wants to let them starve to death, you will do it, Lao Tzu will not do it!"

"The third general is right, and ask the city lord to come out and give an explanation, you can't hide!"

"The three generals are angry, why bother with a subordinate! Since the city lord is not here, then I will wait for the first time, or think of another way. A veteran patted General Stubble on the shoulder, said earnestly, and then pulled General Stubble out of the door.

After half a pillar of incense, in the veteran's mansion, more than a dozen generals were all here. I saw the veteran general look at the generals in the palace and said: "Generals, it seems that it is impossible to count on the city lord now, these children of the family only want to be able to feed and clothe, and now they have no food for two days, and their morale is low, how can this be good?"

"Damn, I'm scared to go to the barracks now, and when I go, I see the brothers staring at me, as if they could see rice in me......," said General Stubble

"Me too, when they go back to the barracks, they look at me like a girl with a fruit body, and their eyes light up! The saliva is dripping, but I can't change rice out of thin air! If I don't come to rice, this will chill the hearts of the soldiers!" said a soldier.

"Yes, you go out and listen now, the soldiers are complaining, how many people are hungry and faint, and if you don't solve it, I'm afraid it will cause the soldiers to mutiny!, I don't dare to sleep in the barracks, I'm afraid that they will suddenly tear down the old bones and ask me to take out the rice!" said the first general

"Presumably, General Liu Yang summoned us not just to listen to our complaints. One of the generals asked.

The old general sighed and said: "The old man used to think, whether we are loyal to the Zhao State of the Zhou family, or loyal to him Chang Gang, we are the ministers of the Zhou family, and the third prince is also surnamed Zhou! At least the name is justified, so it is not considered a collaboration with the enemy and treason!"

"Listen to the old general, is it because he wants us to wait... Surrender?" exclaimed one of the generals

"At the moment, even if we don't throw, we can't beat them, and we don't decide now! At the latest, tomorrow, or tonight, they will attack. As long as they have advisers, they will definitely not let go of this good opportunity! Our soldiers have never had food and clothing, their bodies are weak, what do they use to fight with others, and this battle will be defeated! And the third prince is the prince of the Zhou family, it should not be regarded as surrender, it can only be regarded as letting us stand in a good position, whether to choose Chang Gang or the Zhou family! Compared with Chang Gang's brutality, Zhou Yu is considered benevolent and righteous, just like Lin Gui of Nanyang City, surrender and not discharge the power of the army, can be reused, with this Ming Jun, why not vote. General Liu Yang said.

"Lao Tzu doesn't care who they are, anyway, they are all members of the Zhou family, and I don't care if they kill Chang Gang outsiders. Lao Tzu only needs to consider that the tens of thousands of brothers brought by Lao Tzu cannot starve to death! Old general, you can say what to do! As long as Lao Tzu's soldiers do not starve to death, Lao Tzu will raise his hands in approval! Who dares to oppose Lao Tzu hacking him to death. The third general said seriously.

"That's the only way, let alone at night, even if they attack now, we can't parry it, the city lord may still be eating meat! The children of the family never care about our life or death, it should have been reversed a long time ago, I agree with the old general!"

"Then how do we surrender, and if we surrender at will, how will people treat us! If we are slaughtered at will on charges of crime, isn't that self-defeating?" said the first general

"Then the Nanyang City Lord will not be able to be reused if he votes! We will vote for the Three Princes, in the name of justice. Join the Three Princes' Army! The Three Princes will accept us if they want to show their own army! What about the old general's intentions?" said the three generals

The old general nodded, pondered for a moment and shook his head, and said in a very thin voice without pause: "Having said that, now I wait... One more vote is missing!"

"What does the old general mean... City... Lord!!" exclaimed a general

"If this is the case, then who should be sent to this matter! After all, this matter must not be sloppy, it must be clean!" said the first general

"Damn, I've long seen that guy Gou Niang is unhappy, Lao Tzu goes, make sure it's clean and neat!

The old general Liu Yang touched his beard and glanced at everyone, seeing that everyone had no objections, he said in a deep voice: "Since everyone agrees, the old man will immediately repair a letter and send it to His Royal Highness the Third Prince, and after the three generals are successful, the city gate will be opened!

After hearing this, everyone nodded and left in a hurry, while the three generals headed towards the city lord's mansion with their swords...

Outside Yancheng, the main general camp of the righteous army, Tang Xian casually opened a letter and looked at it a few times, handed it to Zhou Yu, Zhou Yu smiled and handed it to Li Nan, the Marquis of Zhennan, Li Nan suddenly opened his eyebrows and smiled: "Hahahaha, I just wanted to come to a council to prepare a surprise attack on Yancheng! They were impatient to surrender! This Liu Yang is still full of wisdom!"

"The soldiers are besieging Yancheng! There is no food for two days! If you don't eat your stomach, how to fight, the rock city is broken, and this battle should be the first merit!" said the lieutenant general with a smile.

"Wonderful, if it weren't for the soldiers attacking the city in front to attract their attention, Lin Gui would not have been able to capture Caixi County so smoothly! After all, the dangerous road is not easy to walk, but fortunately there was no ambush. Tang Xian said shyly waving his hand

"You don't have to push it back like that! The soldiers have merit, and they will be rewarded for their merits afterwards. Now just wait for their city gate to open!Let's go!" Li Nan said with a smile

After half a pillar of incense, the four gates of Yancheng were opened! Old General Liu Yang led more than a dozen generals to kneel down on one knee, and the three generals held the head of the city lord in their hands and raised it high: "The ministers meet His Royal Highness the Third Prince! The traitorous city lord has been ambushed! We are willing to serve His Royal Highness the Third Prince." ”

"You know the general situation, don't be with the thief Chang Gang as a companion, even though the thief in this city has been eliminated, generals, please get up, and follow me into King Qin. Kill all the thieves and all the rebels, and you can be regarded as a hero who has made meritorious contributions to crimes! ”

When the three princes helped them up, Tang Xian looked around strangely and shouted: "Sandezi, where is Sandezi?

"What do you command, the invincible general of the universe!" the general in armor rode his horse, and when he approached, he jumped off his horse in a stride and knelt down on one knee and said respectfully.

"Take your brothers and raid my house! Oh, it's for me to collect the private soldiers of those families in the city, and half of the property! If you don't accept it, give me a raid! Hurry up! Except for a stitch and a thread, nothing of other value should be left behind!" Tang Xian shouted in a deep voice.

Liu Yang and more than a dozen other soldiers were trembling when they heard that they were raiding the house, and they didn't bring a stitch or thread, and then they heard that it was to deal with the family, and these soldiers exhaled and finally put their hearts at ease. Nima doesn't want to be so scary! Who is this person!
