witch chaotic country

Chapter 804 Lonely City
According to Tan Yaoyu's original plan, as long as Pingcheng is captured and the dispatch of the army is delayed, then Liu Song's army will have enough time to attack. At that time, with a little pressure, the princess can agree to surrender Liu Song. .

But things were disrupted by Mrs. Qiao.Now even though Liu Song has already dispatched troops, the ones who arrived in Pingcheng before them will be a dozen Xianbei kings who intend to ascend to the throne!

Liu Yiji would definitely save the life of the little emperor and grandson in order to recruit peace, but those Xianbei kings would never let Tuoba Jun live.Even if there is no crown prince, Tuoba Jun is still the orthodox heir of the Northern Wei Dynasty. How could the Xianbei kings who wanted to seek power and usurp the throne leave themselves with such troubles!
"Lu Zhen!" In just a split second, Tan Yaoyu had already made a decision, she had already taken away the throne that should belong to him from this child, and she must not let others hurt his life again.

"The minister is here." Lu is really a smart person, and he has already guessed the current situation after a little speculation.

"Take your people, take the badge of this palace, and immediately escort the emperor's grandson to Beiliang's territory! Go immediately! No matter what happens, don't look back! Zhenxi Army still has some troops there, as long as Join the Zhenxi army, and you will be safe for the time being."

Lu Zhen didn't expect that the first thing Tan Yaoyu wanted to save was the life of the emperor's grandson. He hesitated, "Then what about you, empress? The emperor's grandson is His Majesty's blood, but you are also the queen that His Majesty will marry. They will not let you go." than yours. How about..."

"I can't leave the palace." Tan Yaoyu resolutely refused, "None of them is worthy of this throne. All the kings want to rob Pingcheng, and it is bound to turn this place into a battlefield. They have long been accustomed to supporting wars with wars. No one is willing to go back empty-handed... If they find that the throne is hopeless, they will definitely loot Pingcheng, and then Pingcheng will become a purgatory on earth."

"Your Majesty wants to defend Pingcheng alone?!" Lu Zhen was a little surprised, "The troops of the kings are not weak, and they attack in turn, even the entire force of Pingcheng may not be able to withstand it."

Tan Yaoyu did not tell Lu Zhen that she was not fighting alone, her courtiers, friends, teachers, father and brothers were coming from all directions.All she has to do is before they arrive,

Hold Pingcheng.

"Needless to say, quickly protect the crown princess and the emperor's grandson from Pingcheng! With my palace in charge here, I will never let the rebels have a chance to chase you."

Although Lu Zhen felt that as the leader of the imperial army, he should stay in Pingcheng to fight against the enemy, but he finally chose to obey Yao Yu's order.

"I'm under your command, please take care of yourself, Your Majesty."

The gate of Pingcheng was completely closed after Lu Zhen left. Tan Yaoyu ordered ordinary people to hide in the cellar while counting the available troops in Pingcheng.

The spies were sent out wave after wave, and each time they brought back bad news.The rebels had obviously received the news a few days earlier, and the first group of troops had already arrived on the outskirts of Pingcheng.

Because of this palace change, all the Xianbei nobles who were involved were deprived of military power, and the few remaining few heard about Tuoba Tao's death, and even moved to seize the throne. Fortunately, Tan Yaoyu controlled most of the troops in the city , and quickly suppressed these waves of small rebellions.

The least casualties in this mutiny were those Hanchens.First, he was protected by Shu Yun in time, and later he escaped the military chaos in the city under the command of Yao Yu.

But they were not united, and faced with the approaching rebels, they could not come up with any useful countermeasures against the enemy.Tan Yaoyu had no choice but to gather everyone in the palace for protection first, and took the Jinwu Guards to live directly on the city wall.

Looking at the military newspaper, Shu Yun's expression became worse and worse, "Mother, the city's current combat strength is only [-] at full strength. It has to be divided into guards on the walls and patrols in the city. It is already unable to cope. The anti-king forces from all walks of life are increasing It seems to be more than one hundred thousand, with such a huge disparity in strength, does the empress really plan to resist to the end?"

Tan Zhaoyu took a deep breath, "Yes. As long as I am still here, I will never let the anti-kings enter Pingcheng. Don't worry, I am not the only one who can defeat ten with one."

Hearing what Tan Yaoyu said, Shuyun secretly speculated in his heart.Could it be Kou Qianzhi?He really didn't expect Kou Qian, one of the national teachers, who usually only retreats in Jinglun Tiangong, would stand up to resist the enemy at this time.

There are also a few other people who look like Taoists, who seem to know Kou Qianzhi and Tan Yaoyu, and they have been guarding the city wall in their clothes these days.

Shouldn't all Taoist priests meditate while reciting scriptures?When will you lead the army to fight?

At this time, Tan Yaoyu is not afraid of the enemy, only afraid that his own time is approaching.Although she woke up and Zhu Rong could give her medicine, no one could tell how long this flashback would last.

Tan Yaoyu didn't dare to sleep, she was afraid that if she fell asleep again, she wouldn't be able to wake up.Instead of waiting for the enemy to attack, it is better to fight quickly!

Tan invites Yu to call Shu Yun and ask him to find a few people to pretend to be fleeing civilians and go outside the city to confuse the rebels.

Once these people are caught, all they need to say is that Tuoba Tao and Xiao Huangsun are dead, and the kings of all walks of life are already approaching the city.

But so far no one has entered the city, just because the goddess promised that the country should not be left without a king for a day. In order to prevent Pingcheng from being destroyed, the kings need to win and lose outside the city, and the winner will directly enter the city to become the throne!
When Shu Yun heard this plan, his eyes lit up. It is indeed difficult for [-] troops to face [-] rebels, but whoever said that [-] rebels can't kill each other first.

With Tan Yaoyu's operations, all the rebels who were about to arrive, and those who hadn't arrived, rushed to the horse. At first they were a little worried, fearing that Qiao Nu would give them fake news, but now they were afraid that they would arrive too late and would not be able to join them. The other kings compete with each other.

It's just that what they don't know is that at the same time that they are ambushing each other and fighting halfway.Liu Song's army has successfully crossed the river and is approaching Pingcheng step by step.

Looking at the scenery in the north, Liu Yiji was filled with emotion, how much hard work his father and brother had put in, and finally it could be realized here.

"Where are General Tan's troops now?" Liu Yiji asked the military detective beside him.

"Go back to the emperor. General Tan crossed the river more than ten days before the emperor, and he will arrive in Pingcheng in two or three days sooner."

At this time, a fellow official stepped forward and said: "Since General Tan has penetrated deep into the enemy's belly, the emperor might as well lead his troops to defend Hexi, so that he can cooperate with General Tan."

Liu Yiji snorted coldly when he heard the words, "You want me to be a coward?! I said that the imperial conquest will be personally conscripted, and I will never return it until I arrive at Pingcheng! Whoever dares to stop the army and defeat our army's morale will all be dragged out and beheaded!" Already!"

Tan Yaoyu's strategy worked, but not completely.Although it is true that several anti-kings began to fight each other, this matter cannot deceive those who are already in Pingcheng.For them, instead of spending time with several anti-kings to decide the outcome, it is better to capture Pingcheng first before these people arrive!
So on the night of the second day after Tuoba Tao passed away, the first wave of rebel offensives started from both east and west directions at the same time!
The torches on the city wall lit up half the sky.

Tan Yaoyu held the nine-section whip and jumped directly onto the wall. Under the light of the fire, she looked like a god of war, and the nine true qi were like iron whips. No matter how many ladders the enemy set up, they would be smashed to pieces by her!
