From eunuch to emperor

The first attack was repelled by Long Chen, Feng Erniang felt that the situation was not good.

Blindly rushing forward is not the answer, the counterattack in the city is too fierce.

The ghost was riding on the horse, and the entourage brought a black veil cap to wear.

"The catapult is pushed through."

Guiti ordered, and more than 20 catapults were pushed outside the city.

The soldiers began to twist the wheels, and the stones were moved up.

In the city, Long Chen immediately said to Mei Yu: "Aim at the catapult and bombard him."

Mei Yu immediately ordered the artillery to aim at the catapult and fire.

The artillery was fired, the catapult was hit by iron bullets, and the wood was smashed and deformed.

After several rounds of shooting, only 4 catapults were successfully launched.

The stone flew over and hit the city wall, leaving a deep hole.

Mei Yu ordered to fire again, and the remaining four catapults were also destroyed.

The soldiers had no choice but to retreat.

Feng Erniang returned to the ghost fetus and said, "Master, that thing is so powerful that the catapult is completely destroyed."

The artillery was erected on the city, and the black muzzle made Nanliang soldiers daunted.

This is the first time they have experienced the power of artillery.

Guitai sneered and said: "Don't panic, order all the soldiers to pile up the soil, fill up the moat, and build a high mountain."

"Slowly move forward, we don't have to worry about how many people there are."

After speaking, the ghost retreated, and Feng Erniang ordered all the soldiers to dig up the soil and pile it up.

in the city.

Long Chen watched the Nanliang soldiers slowly pile forward carrying sandbags, earth and rocks, and Han Ziping said, "They want to block the city?"

Long Chen said: "They are nibbling away, pushing forward little by little, filling up the moat, and pushing directly to the bottom of the city."

"After the soil is piled up into a mountain, you can climb it up by stepping on it, and finally the soldiers attack the city."

Tang Heizi felt that it was difficult to deal with, and said: "If you let them fill in the soil like this, sooner or later the moat will be filled in, then it will be troublesome."

Long Chen said: "Let the crossbowmen release arrows, shoot anyone who dares to approach."

After much deliberation, this is the only way to fight back.

Han Ziping immediately ordered the crossbowmen to release arrows.

When Long Chen returned to the city, the Empress asked about the situation outside, and Long Chen truthfully reported it.

"The ghostly method is stupid, but it is very useful."

The empress was very worried. When the soil was filled under the city, the city would not work, and there would only be melee.

Long Chen said: "The ghost thinks that the Holy One is not in the city now, but it will soon find out, I mean to attack tomorrow night, and go straight to the camp of the ghost's army."

Long Chen deliberately asked Ye Chang to lead troops out of the city, creating the illusion that the Empress returned to aid Xianhe City.

But this illusion cannot last for too long, because once Xu Feng finds that Xianhe City is an empty city, he will report the ghost.

At that time, the ghost fetus will know that the empress is still in the city, and the deception plan will fail.

Therefore, Long Chen must hurry up.

The empress nodded slightly and said, "Okay, do as you wish."

...

Beiling City.

Yan Xi and Wu Hongying continued to command the soldiers to attack the city, Wu Jian and Li Xiannan fought back vigorously, and the city was full of corpses.

The soldiers of Nanliang kept rushing forward, the feather arrows fell from the city, and the soldiers died under the city.

The nine-ringed broadsword in Wu Jian's hand cut a gap, and Li Xiannan was also tired, leaning against the top of the wall to rest.

Nanliang finally called for gold to withdraw its troops, and the attack temporarily stopped.

Gan Zhen leaned against the city wall, shook his head and said, "Is Yan Xi crazy? Does he want all the soldiers to die?"

After fighting for the past few days, Gan Zhen found that Yan Xi didn't care about the life and death of the soldiers at all, and just rushed forward.

Wu Jian said: "Their purpose is to consume. As for how many soldiers die, they don't care at all."

Li Xiannan ordered the treatment of wounded soldiers, preparing for the next attack.

Meng Yidao and Zhuang Linger also went down to rest.

Back in the mansion, the messenger reported that Linhu City had already started a war, and the ghost fetus led 50 soldiers and horses to besiege.

Gan Zhen was very worried, the defenders in Linhu City were only about 20, if there was a scuffle, it would be bad for Long Chen.

"Don't worry, the Holy Majesty is still in the city. The Major General and the Holy Majesty will join forces, and it will not be a problem to defend the city."

Wu Jian comforts Gan Zhen.

It's just that there are too many people, the combat power of the soldiers is not as good as that of the Long family's army, and the generals are not as good as Long Chen and the Empress.

So Wu Jian was not worried.

Gan Zhen nodded and said: "That is, it is impossible for adults to suffer from others."

Li Xiannan drank two bowls of tea and said, "Now that the battle has reached a stalemate, it depends on who can survive the other."

Long Chen had the upper hand in the early stage, but now Guitai has stabilized its position, neither side can gain an overwhelming advantage, and the battlefield is stalemate, so Guitai adopts the method of attrition.

Whoever can survive this period of time can reverse the situation on the battlefield.

Wu Jian said: "Our side must strive to win as soon as possible, and then gather troops to reinforce Linhu City."

"As long as Linhu City wins, this war of attrition will be over."

The sound of war drums sounded outside the city again, and Yan Xi attacked the city again.

Gan Zhen scolded: "If you don't kill them all, you can't stop!"

The generals went up to the city wall again with their weapons in hand.

The soldiers of Nanliang had already started to attack, and the defenders fought back with arrows, fighting until dusk.

The bloody setting sun sprinkled on the battlefield, and the corpses and dark blood all over the place looked very tragic.

To the west, two shadows quietly came to the city.

The soldiers defending the city were very tired and did not notice the approach of the shadow.

After the two entered the city, they entered the commander's mansion and found Li Xiannan's subordinates.

The female soldier exclaimed, "Princess? Why are you here?"

Di Luoxi and Di Lingyi rushed to Beiling City, and instead of riding directly into the city, they sneaked into the city.

"Bring Li Xiannan here."

Di Luoxi sat down, and the female soldier immediately went out to find someone.

When they arrived at the top of the city, Li Xiannan was holding a hammer, looking at Yan Xi outside the city and yelling.

"Old man, after a few days of killing, your soldiers are almost dead!"

Yan Xi sneered outside the city and said, "A lot of your soldiers died. I have a large land and resources in Daliang, so I can afford to die. You only have a few soldiers in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty."

"If you kill for two more days, all the soldiers in your city will die."

Wu Hongying stepped forward, pointed at Li Xiannan and cursed: "If you feel sorry for the soldiers, you come out to fight by yourself, do you have the guts!"

Yan Xi and Wu Hongying's cultivation bases are so high, if Li Xiannan went out to fight alone, he would definitely not be able to beat them.

"Think again..."

Li Xiannan was about to curse back when a female soldier hurried up behind him and said in a low voice, "General, the princess is here."

Li Xiannan was stunned for a moment, then turned his head and asked, "Which princess?"

The female soldier said, "The third and fourth princesses are here."

Li Xiannan was secretly happy, the two princesses arrived, suddenly there were two more warriors here, the situation was in his favour.

"Two immortals, you wait for my old lady, come out and fight one-on-one right away, I must kill you today!"

Wu Jian next to him was taken aback, and Gan Zhen was also surprised. Why did Li Xiannan suddenly agree to a duel?

Meng Yidao said: "General Li, we are out of strength, fighting generals is not the best strategy."

The sun was about to set, and it would be unwise to promise Dou General at this time.

Li Xiannan didn't care, and scolded: "The two old men underestimated me, if you don't go, I will go!"

"The two of you are waiting for my old lady! Change the horse and come!"

After scolding, Li Xiannan gave Wu Jian a wink, and Wu Jian followed immediately.
