Chapter Eighty-Seven: The Shangyuan Festival

Today is the Shangyuan Festival, in previous years, all kinds of streets and alleys have already been full of people, the tea shop should also be lit with lights and candles, gongs and drums, firecrackers, Nanshi is a hundred miles of lights, everywhere is a festive. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info It's a pity that now the army is besieging the city, the Yang family has issued a martial law order, the people are not allowed to go to the streets at will, and the shops from all walks of life are also preparing for the future war, the atmosphere of the whole festival is gone, most people are afraid that after the city is broken, the enemy will come in to kill, burn and loot, and one by one they are at home to pray to God and Buddha, praying for God's blessing.

Of course, the martial arts conference could not be held, and although many people from the rivers and lakes who came here complained, they could only accept this fact. However, Luo Jianfeng has been recruited by Yang Xiaotian, and now it is the time to employ people, and he can meet this young man who will definitely be able to mix well under the old fox.

Even if all industries are depressed, Qinglou and wine shops are always different, even if the sky falls, these two businesses will not close, this is an eternal truth. And Luo Cheng and the others were waiting for Chen Zhiyuan's news in Su Yan's room.

Even if the fight outside is in full swing, it is not surprising that there are men in the Qinglou to patronize, and the so-called erotic sexuality, the master thinks so, how can the ordinary people be exempt from vulgarity? And Chen Zhiyuan also relied on the floating red mansion as a cover, gathered nearly 3,000 children, and the brothers after him still came one after another, but after all, it was an extraordinary period, everyone was scattered in the city, and it was not convenient for everyone to find a suitable reason to come out and prostitute themselves, and at this rate, it seems that it may not be possible to reach half of them until dark.

In view of this, before noon, Chen Zhiyuan sent Jiang Zheng to discuss with Luo Cheng and others.

Let's be honest. Jiang Zheng couldn't help but be a little embarrassed when he saw Luo Cheng again, who let him go on his own when he was in Huishui City? However, Luo Cheng didn't say a word about this matter, and saw Jiang Zheng coming. After a few words of greeting, Luo Cheng went straight to the point and said, "General Jiang, how are the brothers preparing?"

Jiang Zheng was embarrassed: "Now there are only 3,629 people, and it is estimated that there will be no more than 5,000 people by the end of the Shen period.

There is no way to talk about punishment, after all, Jiang Zhengshi Chen Zhiyuan's subordinates. Luo Cheng also knew that the other party was advancing by retreating, and waved his hand and said: "It's a little reluctant to attack the palace with this force, what should be done on the other side of the Moon Mansion." Now that Diao Biqing has been assigned to the east gate where birds don't, does Brother Chen have any suggestions?"

Jiang Zheng hugged his fists and said: "The head of the family has a question, now the army is trapped on the periphery, if we capture the palace." At that time, what should Yang Xiao Tiangu do if he jumps over the wall and lets the army outside?"

Luo Cheng knew that this problem was not sloppy at all. No one wants to make clothes for others, he said confidently: "Yang Xiaotian is a smart person, if Yang Zhe outside hits in, the first person to kill is him, this is clear to him in his heart, but the impact of changing the emperor in the palace is not very great, so we must act quickly, immediately support the new emperor after capturing the palace, and then reward the hearts of the people." In this way, Yang Xiaotian, a dumb man, is decided, and when King Qin's army arrives. It's a big deal!"

There is as much risk as the benefits are, Jiang Zheng thought about it and made sense, and said frankly at the moment: "Now that the children of the Moon Mansion are all sent to the city, the strategy of the Moon Mansion does not need a lot of manpower, as long as Yang Xiaotian's family is in control, he will not be able to do it at that time." Moreover, the rebellion of the east gate will also cause corresponding troubles at that time, and it should be able to contain the reserve army in the city. The only thing to worry about is whether the east gate will be breached!"

Hearing this, Luo Cheng proposed: "At that time, let General Diao put more dummies on the city wall, mixed with the soldiers, it is difficult to see at night, and it will definitely be able to confuse the enemy for a while, and when the palace is captured, we can cooperate with the internal staff in the army to take down Yang Xiaotian and his son in one fell swoop, and in the future, we will only need to defend the city and wait for reinforcements!"

"Brilliant plan!"

Jiang Zheng hit the case and said: "At that time, we will enter from the Vermilion Bird Gate of the palace, and go straight to the Yellow Dragon, as long as we kill the old monster in the palace, and then set up a child who has nothing to do as the emperor, then the world will be the head of the family...... Of course, Abbot Luo has also worked hard, and the land of Huizhou is rich, and it will be the abbot's bag at that time!"

"Hahaha!"

"Hahaha!"

The two parties seem to be cooperating happily, but only God knows what will happen in the future, at least before Chen Zhiyuan ascends to the throne, Luo Cheng is still the most important partner, he relies on a lot, and even Jiang Zheng is polite to Luo Cheng. However, Chen Zhiyuan is ambitious and will not be satisfied with the status quo at all, how can Luo Cheng let him take power, even if he is sorry for Dan Lao, he will nip the Chen family's ambitions in the bud.

At noon, the army led by Yan Yan on the periphery began to tentatively attack Luojing City, this is Yan Yan always advocated, after all, Luo Cheng has not fought a few battles, and he does not have a deep understanding of the truth, if he has been besieging but not attacking, the morale of the generals will inevitably be low, and the siege of the city can also attract Yang Xiaotian's attention, which is convenient for Luo Cheng's actions in the city, this matter has also been supported by Zizang, the so-called generals are outside, the king's order is not subject to this reason, with Luo Cheng's mind will never mind this matter, the two know their temperament to act like this, in other words, they really dare not act rashly if it is someone else。

After all, the defenders in the city are few people, and the three gates attack at the same time, and the troops in Yang Xiaotian's hands are suddenly clumsy, and he can only send three thousand reserves to withstand the opponent's offensive, but fortunately, Yan Yan is just a little tempted to withdraw the troops, and there are at least hundreds of giant crossbow cannons on the city, if you are tough to attack it, this damage Yan Yan can't afford it, and it is not easy to explain it in Luo Cheng.

After the two discussed, in view of the weakness of the few defenders, let the soldiers set up a nest car to harass, the target of the nest car is too small for the artillery, it is a waste of ammunition, and the top of the nest car can stand no less than ten archers, condescending to the city to constantly shoot cold arrows, making the defenders miserable, but fortunately, there are not many nest cars built in the army, otherwise Yang Xiaotian will desperately let the cavalry go out and destroy this annoying instrument.

Seeing that the sun was about to go down, Yan Yan once again shouted gold and withdrew his troops, less than 100 people were killed or injured today, which was completely within the acceptable range, and the next thing to do was to see Luo Cheng.

And Yang Xiaotian's casualties were nearly five times, mainly because there was no war for a long time, and the heavy equipment at the head of the city was unfamiliar, and when the soldiers were familiar with it, the other party changed their tactics, but fortunately, the giant crossbow hit the opponent's two nest cars, otherwise it would be a good thing for the defenders today.

After a day of fighting, the nerves of the defenders were tense until now, they were all hungry and tired, Yang Xiaotian did not dare to let them go to the barracks to repair, and even the reserves were sleeping in the city together, and he himself set an example to rest in the city tower.

Yesterday, his flying pigeon biography has been sent, and I believe that the defenders on the border will be able to rush back in seven or eight at most, that is, as long as Luojing is held during this time, then Yang Zhe outside the city will have nothing to do. Yang Xiaotian was afraid of negligence, so he inspected the city again, but when he walked to the stone staircase at the end, he did not return, and directly limped down the city tower, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.

At this time, Zhang Bang had already left the south gate and returned to the palace, and the four thousand brothers led by Luo Cheng and Jiang Zheng were also moving quickly in the direction of the palace under the cover of night...... (To be continued.) )
