Hengdao Sixteen Kingdoms

Chapter 561 Morale
Most people in Dragon City did not feel that the situation was serious.

Jie Zhao's 40-strong army was wiped out. It happened more than ten years ago. Many people saw with their own eyes that Jicheng was surrounded by groups and cut off internally and externally. 36 cities in Liaodong surrendered. All the powerful chiefs in the city wanted to abandon the city, but in the end they still Defeated Jie Zhao.

Another 20 years ago, Goguryeo, the Duan clan, and the Yuwen clan formed an alliance under the instigation of Cui Ao, the governor of Pingzhou, and besieged Jicheng, the capital at that time. They camped for thirty miles, but the Yan State still stood up and repulsed the three armies. , drove Cui Ao away and annexed Pingzhou.

Compared with Jie Zhao's army, the pressure of [-] to [-] Liang troops was not great, and even Dragon City could not be completely surrounded.

Murong Ping still has more than [-] troops in his hands, and there are still more than [-] troops from Murong De, Feng Yi, Xian Yuliang and others in the city. Together with the young and strong, they are enough to defend themselves.

As for the surrendered cities outside the city, they have long been accustomed to it. After Liang Guo retreats, these cities will fall back again.

In the land of Liaodong, whoever is strong will depend on whoever is strong.

Murong's rise was also like this back then.

"The Queen Mother does not need to worry too much. There is enough food and grass in the city. She has more than a month's supply. Liang Jun retreats. I will take advantage of the situation to cover up and kill him. We can recreate the great victory of Jicheng City in the past!" Murong Ping was wearing a golden armor and a white jade deer sword hanging on his waist. His face was flushed, as if he was more than ten years younger.

Murong Ke died in the battle, and the power of Yan State naturally fell into his hands.

From beginning to end, he never thought about surrendering, and sent envoys to Liang Jun just to delay time.

"The Grand Governor... has been on the battlefield for decades, but now the only one holding up the country is the general." Kezuhun said helplessly.

Murong Ke died, and Murong Ping took charge of the Chinese and foreign military affairs.

"The Lord of Liang has fallen into my trap of slowing down the troops, and his defeat is imminent. The Queen Mother and Your Majesty are waiting in the palace to receive the good news from the ministers!" Murong Ping waved his sleeves and walked out of the hall with his head held high.

A hundred-footed worm is dead but not stiff.

The State of Yan has been entrenched in Liaodong for nearly a hundred years. As long as the Dragon City is not broken, the foundation will be there.

The total number of soldiers and civilians in the city was 16. Why should they surrender?
Outside the palace, more than a hundred bodyguards with heavy backs had been waiting for a long time. As soon as Murong Ping got on his horse, he heard a thunderous sound outside the city and asked in surprise: "Liang Jun actually attacked the city?"

The guards all looked frightened.

Murong Ping rolled his eyes, "Where are Murong De, Xian Yuliang, and Feng Yi?"

"We are guarding each city separately, and the generals Pangdiao, Zhaishu, and Kusugguanwei are also assisting."

"Well, no worries then, let's go back home." Murong Pingle turned his horse's head.

"The Governor is not going to the battlefield?" The guards all looked over.

The richer they are, the more afraid of death they are, and the more they want to preserve their strength, "What do you know? There is someone strategizing and winning thousands of miles away. Longcheng can sit back and relax. Let Murongde, Xian Yuliang and the others fight with Liang Jun first. , when his strength is exhausted, I will wait for the work with ease, and with a sudden blow, I can defeat Liang Jun!"

These words were so righteous that people had no choice but to believe them.

In the early years when Murong Xin and Murong Hui were still there, Murong Ping could barely be considered a brave general, fighting in the north and south without any ambiguity.

It’s just that in recent years, as my family has become richer, I have begun to pamper myself...

At this moment, on the city wall, Murong De looked at the huge thing pushed by Liang Jun and felt a little guilty, "Are the reinforcements coming?"

Their only support is the city wall under their feet.

But now, no one is sure whether this city wall can withstand Liang Jun.

Liang Jun's momentum was like a rainbow, sweeping in from afar like a black tide.

Murong Ke's death in battle greatly damaged the Yan army's morale. They didn't realize it before they attacked the city. Once they attacked the city, Liang Jun's arrogance was so overwhelming that it seemed as if the entire Dragon City could not breathe.

This is the psychological advantage.

"The Governor said that Liang Jun was just bluffing... General, don't worry." Murong Kai said.

"You're already on fire, why don't you wait?" Murong De's eyes were about to burst, and he looked back at the soldiers on the left and right. None of them had the will to fight. They were completely different from Murong Ke when he was there.

Beams are beams because they support the countertop.After Murong Ke fell, there was no such person in Yan State.

"Nephew... I have something to say..." Murong Kai said hesitantly.

Murong De knew what to say as soon as he saw his expression, "Your father has entrusted me with the country, and I would rather die than surrender!"

Murong Kai had a sad look on his face, "It's not about surrendering, but about running away. Dragon City is gone. I heard that Fu Jian is kind and kind, and many people from near and far are returning. Why not carve out a bloody road, go north to the desert, and then surrender to Qin for me?" Murong should keep some more incense, it will be useless to die in vain. Taking advantage of the small number of Liang Jun's troops, we can ride out lightly, and we can do a lot."

"This..." Murongde looked at Liang Jun who was getting closer and closer, unable to make a decision for a moment.

Only those who have been on the battlefield in person will know how terrifying Liang Jun is.

Murong Ping was hiding behind, obviously using them to consume Liang Jun. Regardless of victory or defeat, Murong De would suffer heavy losses.

In these turbulent years, as long as Bubu is still there, life will not be too bad.

"You go and prepare the cavalry and arrange your family members. I will fight in a bloody battle, and I may be able to repel Liang Jun!" Murongde quickly made a decision.

"Wei!" It's not that Murong Kai doesn't want to be loyal to the Yan country, but he doesn't want to see Murong Ping succeed as a villain. The two families have deep grudges, and Murong Ping has gained the upper hand. After surviving this test, it will be Murong Kai's turn to suffer misfortune.

call out--

More than a hundred cannon stones screamed and hit the city head, setting off a wave of dust and blood.

After the artillery fire, arrows rained down from the Linchong car.

Under the city, rushing cars, flying buildings, crashing cars, climbing cars, hooking battlements, and stair cars are like giant beasts, advancing inch by inch.

Surrounded by iron armor, the evil spirit soared to the sky.

And once these devices get close to the city wall, it will be the end of Dragon City.

Although the Liang Army has a small number of troops, they are all elites accumulated by the Liang Kingdom for more than ten years. They are true tiger and wolf men, which are very different from Shi Hu's hundreds of thousands of troops back then.

Murong De suddenly felt powerless in his heart. Without Murong Ke, it was as if half of his spine had been taken away.

Even he is like this, let alone ordinary soldiers.

"kill!"

At this moment, the city gate opened wide, and a veteran general rode his horse and held a spear, followed by more than a thousand armored cavalry, and rushed towards the rolling enemy army.

"It's General Xianyu!" Murongde was refreshed.

The most taboo thing about defending a city is to defend it to death.

Xian Yuliang's attack greatly boosted the morale of the defenders in the city.

There were more than a thousand cavalry, but they showed the momentum of thousands of troops, like a long sword piercing Liang Jun, bringing out a wave of blood.

There were thunderous cheers on the city wall, and morale seemed to have recovered a lot at this moment.

However, the cheers only lasted for a dozen breaths and then ended abruptly.

Xian Yuliang's Qian Yuqi seemed to be swallowed up by a bloody mouth and quickly disappeared without a trace.

From beginning to end, it failed to shake Liang Jun's offensive, as if this cavalry had never appeared.

The black-red tide covered the sky and continued to surge forward. The huge beast in the middle also approached the city wall, and a huge shadow enveloped the soldiers on the wall.

Not long after, Xian Yuliang's body was hung on a Linchong car.

And a row of sharp crossbows on the vehicle were pointed directly at the defenders on the city wall...
