Although he didn't like it in his heart, he still had to be intimate on this occasion. There are two purposes, one is disgusting and disgusting Wei Qianli, he didn't agree with Wei Qianxing when he was good with him, but now, Wei Qianxing has all the children, you cheap brother-in-law should be decided, go to the depressed nest.

The second is that Song Li wants to use this to divide the Holy Emperor's trust in Wei Qianli.

The Holy Emperor is suspicious, Song Li is very clear. And with this relationship between himself and Wei Qianxing, coupled with his current words, Song Li believes that even if the Holy Emperor will use Wei Qianli, he will definitely be wary in his heart.

As long as he is suspicious and will no longer trust and support Wei Qianli with all his might, then it will be a good thing for his side.

It would be better if the Holy Emperor was more ruthless and directly captured Wei Qianli or killed him.

Although Song Li didn't like Wei Qianli, he also knew that his brother-in-law was indeed not an ordinary person, and he really had two fights, and with him guarding here, it was not easy for him to break the emperor.

Sou.

At this moment, a scream came from the top of the city, and a flash of fire shot towards Song Li.

Thundered.

When I got closer, the sound was like thunder.

This is a rune arrow, and the fire attack rune is engraved on it, and the attack power is quite powerful.

It was none other than Wei Qianli above the city who shot this arrow.

Regarding Song Li's words, Wei Qianli was too lazy to listen to or defend himself, his answer was very direct, that is, if you have a friendship with me, I will return you an arrow.

"Qianli, you are really ruthless, even if you want to prove your innocence in public, you don't need such a ruthless hand, if I have a mistake, your sister has become a widow, you help me raise a child." As Song Li spoke, his fingers flicked, and a flash of fire flew out, already hitting the rune arrow that was coming from the lightning.

As long as something like a rune arrow is shot, it is basically in a state of exploding at any time, and it will explode whatever it hits, which is very powerful.

But what Song Li popped out at this time was a wisp of imperial fire, and when it landed on the rune arrow, the arrow of the rune arrow was reduced to nothing almost instantly. This rune arrow is completely powerless.

However, its momentum did not weaken at all, and it shot towards Song Li with a sharp whistle.

Syllable.

At the last moment, Song Li grabbed it, and then raised the rune arrow in his hand high, indicating that he was fine.

"Handsome and mighty. ”

"Mighty. ”

Seeing that their commander was so powerful, the soldiers were naturally excited, applauding loudly, shouting loudly, and the shouts shook the sky, wave after wave, and morale skyrocketed.

Morale is something you can't see or touch, but it's crucial to battle. There are many ways to boost morale, and the most direct is to let the soldiers see how wise and powerful their commanders are.

Song Li is playing such a hand now, which not only improves his prestige, but also boosts morale, which is more beneficial to the siege battle later.

But just these, Song Li obviously didn't think it was enough, so he said: "Qianli, I misunderstood you, it turns out that the rune arrow you shot didn't have an arrow, so I said, we are relatives after all, you are still the uncle of my unborn son, how can you be so ruthless as to kill me, so that your nephew will have no father before he is born." ”

"Don't worry, your subordinates will be merciful, and after I break through the imperial capital, I will also be merciful. When Song Li said this, he shouted: "I am a very talkative person, I have always been the main culprit and must be punished, coercion does not matter, you are just forced to defend the city here, it can only be regarded as forced, I will not treat you like this, rest assured." ”

"Alright, I've said what I need to say, so let's see you later. Song Li said and waved his hand at Wei Qianli, turned around and returned to the military formation.

"Dashuai, do you really want to show mercy to his subordinates?" Lu Qian asked.

"Nonsense, it's just talk, you still take it seriously!" Song Li glared at him and said, "Tell me below, give me a fight to the death, if anyone dares to be soft, military law will be involved." ”

"Understood. Lu Qian said loudly.

"Prepare for the offense. ”

"Prepare for the offense. ”

......

As the heralds on horses and holding the command flag galloped in front of the battle and shouted orders, the soldiers, who had been gathering momentum for a long time, began to check their preparations under the leadership of the non-commissioned officer, preparing to launch an attack later.

The imperial capital is not only high in the city walls, but also has a wide and deep moat outside.

This moat is nearly 50 meters wide and nearly 100 meters deep at the same time, and with such a river in the way, it is basically impossible to attack the city directly.

However, Song Li's side had already taken countermeasures to this, and after the order to attack was issued, dozens of huge shield carts slowly drove out of the military formation.

In front of these shield carts was an extreme wooden shield, and behind them were large wooden carts, filled with sand, gravel and dirt. A rough calculation of each car is nearly ten or twenty squares.

Pushed by many people, the shield cart slowly came to the moat, and then someone shouted: "Dump." ”

The people on both sides began to shake the handle on it, and then the body of the car began to slowly rise, and then the sand, gravel and soil contained in it poured out from under the wooden shield.

Seeing this scene, the defenders at the head of the city were all dumbfounded.

It's not that they haven't seen a shield cart before, but this is the first time they have seen such a shield cart, especially watching so much sand, gravel and mud poured into the moat, everyone can't help but think, it's over, the moat won't be long before it will be filled. Who came up with this idea, it's so hateful.

The defenders of the imperial capital felt hateful, but the soldiers on Song Li's side felt that it was too good.

The reason is simple: in siege warfare, filling the moat is definitely a dangerous and troublesome job, because it is within the range of the opponent, and if you want to fill the moat, you basically have to brave the enemy's arrow rain to rush over. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is filling the moat with human life.

Originally, the soldiers were still thinking that the moat in the imperial capital was so wide and deep, how many people would die if they wanted to fill it.

But now with this shield cart, they don't have to take any risks. Naturally, everyone is happy.

Of course, this shield car is improved by Song Li, although its appearance is still similar to that of ordinary shield cars, but the structure has become similar to that of dump trucks, the only difference is that there is no power system, and it can only be pushed by people.

Although this will increase the danger of the people, because the front of the shield cart is an extremely thick shield with steel plates, it is not enough for ordinary feather arrows to penetrate it, and as for more powerful crossbow arrows, it is not so easy to penetrate them, and it is relatively safer.

With these shield carts, the moat of the imperial capital is really no longer a problem, and after a while, the river has gradually narrowed.

During this period, the defenders naturally did not sit idly by, and they also tried many ways to destroy the shield cart, but it was useless to shoot with ordinary bows and arrows, although the shield cart was shot like a hedgehog, but the people hiding behind it did nothing.

And if you use crossbow arrows, although you can cause some damage to the shield car, because the people who work are mainly concentrated behind the shield car, even if the big shield on the shield car is shot through, the power of the crossbow arrows is already very weak, and the possibility of injuring the people is much smaller, even if some unlucky people are shot to death, it is not unacceptable.

The defenders even used runic arrows. Needless to say, the effect is quite good, one rune arrow is enough to destroy a shield cart and even kill all the people behind the shield cart.

But the defenders stopped shooting after a few shots, because the cost performance was too low.

How much is a rune arrow, and the cheapest one is thousands of gold coins. But a shield cart is only a dozen gold coins if it dies, and as for the people, it is even more as much as they want, and it is enough for one person to give a dozen gold coins as a pension after he dies.

In this way, the defenders are definitely losing money by shooting the shield car with rune arrows.

What made the defenders even more angry was that they had just destroyed a few shield carts on their side, and Song Li's side immediately replenished the number of shield carts, and there was a posture that if you dared to shoot, I would dare to continue to replenish.

In this case, no one does it anymore unless the brain burns out.

As a result, the defenders of the imperial capital could only watch the shield carts come and go in great depression, pouring a large amount of mud, sand and gravel into the moat, but there was no way to stop it.

They also thought about sending people out of the city to stop and kill them, but looking at the cavalry at the gate of the city, in the end, no one moved such an idea anymore, they were really afraid that stealing chickens would not lead to rice.

"What's the situation on the Zhan Long side?" Song Li asked.

"It's also filling in the moat, the progress is similar to ours, and the official start of the attack is estimated to be in the afternoon, and the commander asked me to thank the marshal, saying that you solved a big problem for his shield car. The spy replied. Looking at Song Li's eyes, his eyes were full of admiration.

"Don't rush, take your time. Song Li was very leisurely and authentic.

With such a large city, Song Li knew very well that it was impossible to take it all at once, and he was ready to fight a protracted battle from the beginning. Now the filling of the moat is just the beginning, and it is still far from the start.

Song Li beckoned the guards beside him and said: "Pass the order, let the generals not be idle, boost morale, don't be idle for a long time, and you will really lose your energy in the fight." ”

"Yes. ”

Long before the start of the war, Song Li ordered fifty shield chariots to be filled as soon as possible in order to fill the moat as soon as possible with as little loss as possible of his soldiers.

It's just a part of it that was pushed out before, one is to try the effect, and the other is to not want to expose it too much, so as not to provoke the defenders in the city, and really bombard it with rune arrows at any cost.

Now that a few cars were destroyed, Song immediately replenished them, and there were many more, which gave the defenders in the city an illusion that Song Li had prepared a lot of this kind of shield car, so that he stopped attacking it from a distance with rune arrows.

Seeing this, Song Li immediately ordered someone to push the rest of the shield carts out.

More than forty shield carts came and went, and the originally wide moat became narrower and narrower, and tended to merge.

At this time, the generals under Song Li's command began to give orders, urging his non-commissioned officers and soldiers to prepare for battle.

In fact, needless to say, the soldiers can also see that the moat is about to be filled, and the next thing will inevitably be a tragic siege. Whether it was under the city or in the city, the atmosphere suddenly became tense and solemn
