Outside Bianliang City, the yellow sand is rolling, the black clouds are overwhelming, and the army is floating horizontally......

Zhao Zichuan led the troops to the "Ghost Gate Cliff" to attract the attention of Wuliang Tuoduo reinforcements and buy time for the vanguard army to crusade against the city. Although the www.biquge.info old friend is desperate and his heart is painful, the matter has come to this point, and the fighter plane that Zhao Zichuan exchanged for his life cannot be wasted in vain - Lu Jing sat in the army formation, waved his troops forward, and in front of Bianliang Pass, a battle was about to start......

"Start the siege ......" Lu Jing's eyes were indifferent, and he gave the order to attack in a low voice.

Tang Zhan knew that Lu Jing was in pain in his heart, how could he not be the same? In his heart, he decided that this battle must be won, Tang Zhan was also firm in his belief, and rode forward with a gun and iron, and waved the order to attack the city......

For a while, the siege firearms fired one after another, and countless flying fire meteors flew through the sky and landed on the ancient walls of Bianliang, making a violent explosion -- Bianliang, which was once prosperous for a lifetime, and the hometown of everyone, was now only destroyed for a while, and it was shrouded in the sea of fire of the merciless hell......

"Boom-" "Bang-" On the city wall, the rubble was stirring, and the Mengyuan soldiers were all frightened.

"Ah-" "Ah-" "Ah-......" At the bottom of the side wall, on the stone stairs, the guards of the city, the rescue troops, gunpowder shells shot one after another, the flames suddenly rose to the sky, the corpses of the soldiers flew everywhere, and the soldiers of Meng Yuan were quickly overwhelmed by the explosion and thick smoke......

"Damn-" The adjutant general Wuliang Habelle led the troops to defend against the enemy, but before he could meet with bayonets, his soldiers were already in turmoil, and he couldn't help shouting angrily, "Give me the side of the city wall to resist, the stone steps that were broken by artillery fire, hurry up and reinforce them, move quickly!"

Wang Gubu Zatai was wearing battle armor, personally climbed on top of the city tower, looked at the artillery fire in front of him, and said angrily in his heart: "Zhu Yuanzhang, if you kill my son, it is death, and my Wang Gubu Zatai is also inseparable from you......"

"No, the enemy's artillery fire is too fierce-" For a while, Wang Sansheng, who led the troops to garrison, couldn't help shouting, "There are not enough defenders on the Bianliang side, if General Wuliang Tuoduo doesn't come again, I'm afraid I won't be able to withstand it for a few hours......"

"If you can't stand it, you have to take it - their vanguard army is only 20,000 horses, as long as we hold on to the reinforcements of Wuliang Todo, we have a chance of winning!" Wang Dasheng walked up the stone stairs destroyed by artillery fire at this time, and said with a cold expression, "And it seems that they attacked the city too hastily, and there must be a sudden change in the situation, as long as we make a slight mistake, we can find the right time to counterattack!"

It was not only Wang Dasheng who caught up with the city tower, but beside him, there was also a military general wearing glorious armor - this person was expressionless, his eyes were gray, his hair was messy, and his expression was sluggish...... That's right, he is Murong Xin who killed his parents and brothers with his own hands.

Murong Xin completed the "family massacre" and successfully became the "General Zhennan", and now that the Bianliang War has broken out, it is natural that he will serve Meng Yuan - and now Murong Xin is almost completely crazy, and he can only work for the court in this war, because even if Wang Dasheng does not let go of himself, if he fails to defend the city, his younger brother and sister, Murong Fei and Murong Ying will not let him go......

However, Wang Dasheng doesn't seem to be optimistic about Murong Xin, more precisely, he just regards Murong Xin as a tool to complete his tasks, or as a material for watching a drama in wartime - Wang Dasheng, who kills people without blinking, can't wait to watch a fight to the death between the Murong brothers and witness the last scene of the Murong family's fratricide......

"Big brother, ten bronze cannons are ready!" At this moment, Wang Ersheng braved the overwhelming artillery fire and ran up to the city tower to report.

"Hmph, are the firearms from two years ago still there......" Wang Dasheng smiled coldly, and then ordered, "Order, place artillery fire in the fulcrum of the city, once the enemy forces forcibly enter the city, use artillery fire to intercept it!"

"Yes-" Wang Ersheng got the order, and then jumped down the city with light skills......

"Hmph, the bronze cannon from two years ago, fortunately, there is still some ...... left" Wang Dasheng looked back at the enemy's position, and said secretly in his heart, "This is all to blame for the good things that Xiao Tian and Su Jia did...... But two years ago, I used these guys to send you a farewell to the cliff of life and death, and this time, I'll use these guys to send you back to the West......"

Yes, the remaining ten bronze cannons are the firearms that Wang Dasheng secretly seized from Xiaojia Villa two years ago by taking advantage of Xiao Wuzhong's betrayal. At that time, Su Jia fought a thousand troops alone in Lingguan City and destroyed most of them, and now the remaining ten bronze cannons are still intact......

In the vanguard formation, the onslaught of firearms continued. However, there was an accident in the plan, an unexpected situation, which shocked the vanguard generals......

The artillery siege continued for a while, but for some reason, the movement gradually stopped. From the departure of the Chinese army to the left and right divisions, the sound of gunpowder and artillery gradually stopped, and the firearm deterrence, which had been planned smoothly, suddenly became silent......

"Why did you stop?" Lu Jing noticed that something was wrong, and couldn't help shouting urgently, "Hurry, the firearms siege continues!"

Tang Zhan also felt that something was strange, and immediately issued an artillery command again...... But the result was still the same, there was no artillery fire in the two flank armies, and it was quiet under the thick smoke and yellow dust......

"Why, why don't you listen to the order to fire the cannon?" Lu Jing suddenly became anxious, and shouted loudly, "Go on, firearms attack the city!"

But the result is still the same, no matter how Lu Jing orders or shouts, there is almost no movement in the army......

"What the hell is going on?" Lu Jing was already completely in a hurry, and angrily reprimanded - Li Yuru's sacrifice and Zhao Zichuan's death had completely confused his mind, and he couldn't calm down in front of the war army, and he could only keep shouting "angry" when something happened, and the marching order was completely out of order.

Tang Zhan saw it in his eyes, knowing that Lu Jing had already collapsed, and he was restless when something happened, and commanding the army to fight in this state must be too worrying.

So, Tang Zhan decisively jumped off the war horse, ran to Lu Jing's side, and kept dissuading: "Jing'er, calm down!"

"My sister-in-law is dead, the life and death of the Zichuan brothers in the 'Ghost Gate Cliff' are uncertain, and they exchange their lives for us for fighter planes, why are you still wasting it in vain......!!? Yes...... Woo woo ...... "Gradually, maybe Lu Jing was tired of shouting, maybe she couldn't control her emotions, Lu Jing's mind collapsed, and finally she cried out in grief and fell down beside Tang Zhan.

Tang Zhan held Lu Jing with one hand, and shouted at the officers and soldiers of the Chinese army: "You guys, go and see what is going on, why the artillery fire has stopped-"

"Yes—" The men replied in unison, and ran away to the left and right......

"Jing'er, don't be in a hurry...... the battle was tense, Tang Zhan still tried to comfort the heartbroken Lu Jingdao, "Even if there is no gunpowder, we still have the advantage of attacking the city...... Calm down, we'll find our chance—"

But Lu Jing is like this, how can he still have the heart to continue commanding? In order not to let the soldiers behind him see it and affect the morale of the army, Tang Zhan deliberately turned his back, blocked Lu Jing in front of him, and leaned into his ear to comfort him: "Jing'er, don't worry, if you are tired, rest for a while, and then leave it to me......

Lu Jing didn't answer, but the center of the chaos looked at the ancient city of Bianliang that was destroyed by artillery fire but then stopped......

"Oh no, Sister Jing......" However, it seems to be unfavorable news coming back from the left and right divisions.

Lu Jing was still a little sensible, and after calming down a little, when she heard the news return, she stood up again, let go of Tang Zhan's hands and said, "Don't worry, stupid, I can hold on, you don't have to worry about me ......"

Tang Zhan was concerned about Lu Jing on the one hand, and on the other hand, he was worried about the war situation transmitted back, and he was also anxious and uneasy in his heart - he saw Lu Zhao, Lu Meng and others, who were in charge of artillery fire, as well as Murong Fei and other cavalry generals, gathered one after another, and it seemed that the impact of the sudden situation was not small.

"Oh no-" Lu Zhao ran to the front of him, gasped, and then said solemnly, "The gunpowder that Zhu Yuanzhang gave us is a problem!"

"What did you say?" Tang Zhan asked in place of Lu Jing in shock.

"It's true-" Lu Meng also said on the side, "The gunpowder at the beginning was fine, but just now, when we were about to continue to exert firepower, the gunpowder shells in the back were simply fake and could not be used!"

"How is this possible?" Tang Zhan's eyes widened, and he couldn't believe the Lu brothers' words.

"Do you mean...... Wouldn't it......" Lu Jing seemed to realize something, and her expression couldn't help but be surprised - yes, all the gunpowder came from Zhu Yuanzhang's army, if it was only one or two cannons that popped out of the problem, it would be understandable, but for a while, all the gunpowder had a problem, and there was only one possibility for the result......

In Lu Jing's mind, a familiar and bitter picture reappeared......

(in recall)......

"Before leaving, I summoned you here, there is something important to ......order," Zhu Yuanzhang pretended to be calm, and said seriously and cautiously, "This time the surrender of Bianliang, although Zuo Junbi surrendered, and the army division made great contributions, but it angered the generals of the main battle faction of Bianliang, the negotiations broke down, and the war was inevitable - in this way, the army division is not really successful......

Hearing the inevitability of war, everyone couldn't help but be entangled in their hearts for a while. Especially Lu Jing, who swore in front of his friends that he could successfully negotiate, but who knew that Zuo Junbi's surrender still couldn't stop the war in Bianliang, and Lu Jing couldn't help but feel guilty and uneasy in her heart.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Lu Jing and continued: "But Zuo Junbi's surrender is true, it is just what the army division did, and it is not perfect, now give the army division a chance to make up for it, if you do it well, I will reward you greatly......" Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes turned around.

Lu Jing seemed to foreshadow uneasiness, and her eyes couldn't help but stare.

The corners of Zhu Yuanzhang's mouth gradually showed an imperceptible "smile", and then said: "The battle in Bianliang is inevitable, and now I order the army division to lead the vanguard army to crusade against Bianliang!"

Hearing that it was a crusade, not only Lu Jing, but also Xiao Tian and Nangong Murong were also entangled in their hearts.

"The emperor wants us to lead troops to attack the city?" Lu Jing asked rhetorically.

"Is there any problem?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked rhetorically, "Now that Zuo Junbi has surrendered, the combat power of the enemy city in Bianliang has been sharply reduced, even if there are generals of the main battle faction who are desperately resisting, but the vanguard army is sitting on 20,000 people, it should not be difficult to take Bianliang......

Lu Jing closed her eyes slightly, as if a faint pain welled up in her heart.

Zhu Yuanzhang continued: "Moreover, I heard that there are enemies in your camp who have lost their lives, and now you are leading your troops to fight, isn't it a good opportunity to take revenge?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the audience couldn't help but be stunned - they didn't expect Li Yuru's death, and Zhu Yuanzhang also knew about it. You must know that not long after Li Yuru passed away, and even Lu Jing just learned the bad news yesterday, but Zhu Yuanzhang seemed to have predicted everything, and he could grasp everything as soon as possible......

Lu Jing saw it in her eyes, and smiled helplessly: "I didn't expect that the emperor was really timely, the last general only informed the general of his death yesterday, and the emperor actually knew that he died at the hands of the enemy general......"

If you don't even know this, how can you lead the army to the north? Including your vanguard army is the same......" Zhu Yuanzhang's last sentence is intriguing and unsettling.

"Crusade against the city, the last general and others will definitely be ......ordered," Lu Jing pretended to accept the military order calmly, and then said, "It's just that although Bianliang City is outnumbered, there are still three generals of the Wang family stubbornly defending......

"Bianliang is already a ruined city, and it is better to crusade against it, and there is no need to make a big move. I led my own troops to sit in the rear, and the main force came from the Shandong market, and the soldiers still need to recuperate and recuperate, and keep them for the strategic use of Luoyang and Tongguan......" Zhu Yuanzhang recounted in detail the fatigue of the army, and then turned to a tone and said, "Moreover, the advantage is so obvious, and there are heroes such as Xiao Tian and General Tang Zhan in the army, if you can't take a small Bianliang, the 'wise feat' of the vanguard army in Shandong may also be regarded as ancient......" Zhu Yuanzhang said this, obviously with a hint of "provocation".

Lu Jing listened, as if she had a premonition, and her eyes couldn't help but glance.

Zhu Yuanzhang thought for a while and continued: "Of course, the vanguard army has made countless military exploits all the way down, but the military consumption is not small...... Rest assured, to be sure, I can provide you with plenty of gunpowder and arrows. If you are ready to attack the city in a few days, you can come here and get it at any time......"

After speaking, Lu Jing and Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at each other, and it seemed that in each other's eyes, the other party had calculations for each other......

(In reality)......

"That's ...... that time," Lu Jing seemed to understand, and said secretly in her heart, "Zhu Yuanzhang calculated from the beginning, treating us as chess pieces to use, weighing its weight left and right...... What is said to be for the strategic purpose of staying in Luoyang and Tongguan is nothing more than wanting to take Bianliang at the lowest cost, and at the same time weaken the strength of our vanguard army...... Zhu Yuanzhang was afraid of me, so he deliberately made things difficult for our army, did not give our army enough gunpowder, and weakened the strength of our army...... Crusade against the city at the lowest cost, and at the same time weaken the henchmen, Zhu Yuanzhang's game of chess is too wonderful......"

Lu Jing kept talking to herself, but her expression was stunned. Murong Fei saw it in his eyes, thinking that Lu Jing was panicked because of this, and then said magnificently: "Hmph, it's just that there is no firearm to attack the city, and the number of troops on both sides is still significantly different...... It's a big deal that the manpower forcibly attacked the city, and I still don't believe that there are only a thousand people left in Bianliang, and our army's 20,000 troops can't take it-"

"Hey, wait......" Lu Jing was afraid that Murong Fei would lose his mind, so he stopped in time, but maybe he was tired of shouting just now, and his tone was obviously not as firm as before.

"Sister Jing, you're like this, I'm afraid it's difficult to command now......" Murong Fei continued, "It's too hard for you to fight all the way to unify the army-you can rest assured, just leave it to us in the first battle in your hometown!" After speaking, Murong Fei gestured to Qin Yu beside him.

Qin Yu was the leader of the former army in this battle, replacing the position that should have been Zhao Zichuan, plus he was quite good at the siege battle, Lu Jing recuperated for some reason, Qin Yu naturally led the troops to capture the city.

Qin Yu nodded, agreeing with Murong Fei's opinion, so he comforted Lu Jing: "Sister Jing, you also said that we can't waste the opportunity that Brother Zichuan exchanged for his life...... Although there is no gunpowder now, we still have an advantage in terms of troops, and we must take the city as soon as possible before the reinforcements from Uliang Todo arrive......"

"Brother Qin......" Lu Jing looked at Qin Yu in a daze, and felt a lot of emotion in her heart.

"Qin admires Sister Jing's military talent, but now that you are overworked, as Brother Murong said, take a good rest, just leave it to us here......" Qin Yu responded to Lu Jing's words, and immediately immediately stepped forward with a gun, and issued a siege military order instead of Lu Jing, "The whole army listens to my orders, and the position is attacking the city!"

"Kill!-" For a while, there was a shocking shout in front of the city -- the elite and brave soldiers of the vanguard army, one by one, rushed forward and launched a flood-like attack on the ancient city of Bianliang...... (To be continued.) )
