"Siege the city! Siege the city! Jinan City must be captured, this king must capture Tie Xuan and cut that man to pieces!"

Zhu Di was furious, and the Yan army also launched a real fire. They concentrated their catapults and violently bombarded a fortress in Jinan City. Zhang Yu, Zhu Neng, Qiu Fu and other powerful generals took turns to lead the charge. It's more tragic than ever.

The defenders in the city have been driven to a dead end. Fake surrender has been a prudent strategy of the city defenders since ancient times, because it is easy to be retaliated by massacring the city. Now not only the false surrender, but also almost killed King Yan. What happens if it breaks?The fear of death inspired their courage and determination to fight to the death.

"Whoa!"

After being repeatedly thrown by the trebuchet, a gap in the city wall collapsed, and the ladder could be directly placed on it. The soldiers were attached to it, and there was an endless stream. The city head immediately mobilized troops to counterattack. It changed hands, and just fell into the hands of the Yan army, and was taken back by the defenders who fought back desperately.

"Mobilize the copper fire guns and blast them all to me!"

Zhu Gaoxu stood on the dirt wall with a knife in his hand, and immediately shouted loudly when he saw this scene.

Six or seven copper fire guns were brought in. Although it was not powerful enough to knock down the city wall, the iron sand splashed on a large area had a great killing effect on the defenders at the top of the city. Since there was a gap in the city wall, the copper cannon Shoot flat on the earthen wall outside the city to suppress the enemy, and the Yan army below can continue to climb, and when the artillery stops, they can immediately rush to the top of the city to fight.

As a result, the defenders fell into a more difficult battle. When the artillery roared, they did not dare to hide in the bunker, and the casualties were naturally heavy.

"Report, General. The city wall collapsed and it was too late to build. The Yan army suppressed our army with artillery fire, causing heavy casualties. If this continues, we will not be able to hold on."

A chief banner officer with blood all over his face staggered and threw himself in front of Sheng Yong. Sheng Yong gritted his teeth, drew his knife and said, "The situation is critical, Mr. Tie, please sit here on behalf of the general, and I will lead the supervising team to retake the city wall." .”

"Wait, General!"

Tie Xuan stopped him: "The artillery is sharp, and the general will go to battle in person, which may not be of any help. Once the general dies in battle, how can Tie command the army and the people if he doesn't learn the art of war?"

Sheng Yong said helplessly: "At this moment, what can you and I do?"

Tie Xuan was in a hurry, and said with a sneer, "Wait a minute, general, I have a solution, let's see if Yan Ni dares to risk the world's big taboo!" After saying that, he hurriedly turned and walked to the book case, Sheng Yong, Gao Wei and others looked at each other in astonishment.

After a while, Tie Xuan picked up a large piece of paper dripping with ink, which was as long as a couplet, and wrote a line of big characters: "Open the sky, walk the way, start the discipline, establish the great sage, the god, the benevolent, the righteous, the Wu Junde, the successful high emperor!"

Tie Xuan said: "Come here, quickly paste it on a wooden board and place it in the collapsed part of the city wall. I want to see if Zhu Di dares to bomb the city!"

"Tie Hyun, Tie Hyun!"

Zhu Di heard that the cannon was dumb, and even the trebuchet was dumb. He was inexplicably shocked. When he went to the front of the battle, he saw that he was so angry that one Buddha was born and two Buddhas ascended to heaven.

When the two armies were fighting, they really did everything they could. Tie Shenzheng, who was praised as a sincere gentleman, even asked the emperor Zhu Yuanzhang's God Lord spirit card to be placed on the crenel of the city wall. Such a rogue method... Jun Kong held a sharp weapon, facing the small spiritual card, no one dared to move it. It was the spiritual card of His Royal Highness King Yan's father, who would dare to bombard it?

"Tie Hyun, Tie Hyun!"

Humiliated and humiliated, Zhu Di was so furious that he drew his sword and pointed it at the top of the wall, cursing sharply: "If I don't kill Thirteen Niang, you will be fried in a frying pan, I will not be able to dispel the hatred in my heart!"

He said cruel words, but looking at the spirit card of the deceased father standing on the top of the city, he was helpless. 3

None of the 60 troops of the imperial court could stop him, but facing Huang Kao's spiritual card, how could he smash the steel knife in his hand?

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

Li Jinglong returned to Jinling with his tail between his legs.

He led the defeated generals from Jinan and fled all the way south, and fled to Xuzhou in one breath, but he didn't leave.He couldn't leave, the emperor gave him 80 troops back and forth, but he was defeated in a row, and now there are only tens of thousands of people around him, what face does he have to go back to Jinling?It is unreasonable to go back without being beheaded.

Li Jinglong gained a firm foothold in Xuzhou, thinking about it, thinking that he should gather the remnant soldiers first, he first sent someone to inquire about the movement of the Yan army, and learned that the Yan army had besieged Jinan, and then sent orders to Guo Ying, Pingan, Chen Hui, etc. The general led his troops to wait for his dispatch.

This old man waited for more than half a month, the old general Guo Ying ignored him, and directly threw his order arrow in the face of his messenger, blasted out of the Chinese army tent, and then went on to write his plea and complaint memorial ;Pingan still gave him face, and he agreed with a humming haha. He just agreed to agree, but he didn't move his nest. He worked hard near the Shanjia Bridge and built a small soldier town like a copper wall. , and went to the back of the Yan army; Chen Hui also agreed to come down, but today he said that the remnants of the defeated generals had not yet been gathered, and tomorrow he said that they found out that the Yan army had set up an ambush halfway, in short, they just didn't move.

The generals of other walks of life are also roughly similar. The veterans directly don't give him a good face, while those of the same generation find many weird reasons.Since ancient times, the generals were not granted the orders of the foreign emperors. When Li Jinglong changed it, it was changed to not give the orders of the generals. He was first abandoned by the generals under his command.

Li Jinglong couldn't advance, nor could he retreat. In desperation, he could only blame others for the reason for his defeat, and then wrote a secret letter, asking someone to send it to Jinling to Huang Zicheng, hoping that in times of crisis, Master Huang would pull back again. Little brother.

Huang Zicheng read Li Jinglong's letter, and his whole body was about to collapse. Previously, Li Jinglong's 50 troops were defeated and retreated from Dezhou City. He was able to hide such a major event that has been heard by the government and the public, and only coaxed the emperor to not know. This is almost impossible. The 60 army has suffered a crushing defeat, even worse than last time. Only half of the 60 army is alive, and there are tens of thousands of disabled soldiers. Dezhou's million dan army food has been paid to the enemy. During the siege, generals from all walks of life wrote letters one after another, all pointing to Li Jinglong. Even if he, Huang Zicheng, covered the sky with one hand, he couldn't hide this matter.

Huang Zicheng didn't give him another hand, but took his letter and went to the emperor to impeach him.

Zhu Yunqiu is still learning Zhouli, which is profound and profound. If he wants to rule the world with Zhouli and restore Anbang, he can't do it without learning it thoroughly. He is learning it with great interest, and Huang Zicheng came in disgrace with Li Jinglong's letter.

When Zhu Yunwen saw that his expression was different, he couldn't help asking: "Why are you panicking, sir?"

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."

Huang Zicheng fell to the ground, crying: "Li Jinglong was defeated, Dezhou was defeated, and the 80 army was defeated. Now Yanni has trapped Jinan City, Li Jinglong has been defeated and left Xuzhou, and all the generals are fighting each other. Your Majesty..."

"what?"

Zhu Yunwen turned pale in shock, stood up suddenly and said: "Didn't Li Jinglong lead the army to attack Shisanniang Beiping? Why was he defeated in Dezhou, with an army of 80,... unexpectedly defeated? How many troops does Yanni have?"

Huang Zicheng kowtowed: "Your Majesty, Li Jinglong sent troops to Beiping and arrived at Baigou River to meet Yan Ni's troops. Li Jinglong was arrogant and arrogant, and his soldiers slowed down the enemy. As a result, he was completely defeated and humiliated the country..."

Zhu Yunwen's face turned pale, he took two steps back, fell down on the chair, Huang Zicheng crawled a few steps, and wailed loudly: "Li Jinglong's command was improper, and countless soldiers and horses of our court were lost. Please also issue an order immediately to call Li Jinglong back to the capital, and punish him." Its head, Ming Zheng canon punishment, to thank the world, encourage soldiers, and inspire people."

Zhu Yunwen was in a state of confusion, and waved his hands: "Quickly deliver the decree, announce Li Jinglong's return to the capital!" Then he stepped forward to help Huang Zicheng, and said in a panic, "Sir, Li Jiujiang was defeated, Shandong Mansion is in danger, what should I do?" good?"

Huang Zicheng opened his mouth, but he could no longer show the air of crouching dragon and phoenix chick.

Seeing this, Zhu Yunwen hurriedly said: "Hurry up, quickly announce that Mr. Xiaozhi, Qi Tai from the Ministry of War and other important military officials will go to Zhengxin Palace to discuss matters!"

Li Jinglong looked forward to the autumn water in Xuzhou. He didn't wait for Huang Zicheng's ingenious plan, but he waited for an imperial decree, so he had to return to the capital sadly.

When Li Jinglong arrived in the capital, he tied his hands and went to the hall to plead guilty. Huang Zicheng was the first to rush out and said, "Your Majesty, Li Jinglong insulted the country and mourned his teacher. He deserves death. Please punish him and thank the clan."

Li Jinglong also knew that his crime was serious, so he trembled with fright, and kowtowed repeatedly to plead guilty. Zhu Yunwen saw it, and remembered that when he was still the grandson of the emperor, he had a very good friendship with him. Now that he is the king, he This minister, his life and death are in his own hands, with a heart of compassion, his anger became weaker, and he said: "The most urgent thing is how to deal with Yan Ni. Li Jinglong's crime is unforgivable, but thinking of him is the foundation of the country. After the hero, I really can't bear to kill him, and... extrajudicial kindness, let him be spared."

Huang Zicheng righteously said: "The law is the law of the ancestors, and the law is to inspire the soldiers. Now Li Jinglong is ordered by the emperor to seek rebellion, but he is so incompetent that he loses his teacher and humiliates the country. Although ten thousand deaths are not enough to atone for his crimes!"

Li Jinglong gritted his teeth when he heard this, and stared at Huang Zicheng resentfully, but at this moment, he was already a rat crossing the street, and Huang Zicheng was the emperor's number one favorite, how could he dare to provoke Huang Zicheng and make himself worse.

Seeing that the emperor wanted to pardon Li Jinglong, Lian Zining, the deputy capital censor, rushed out of the class angrily and said: "Your Majesty, the way to govern the army should be clear rewards and punishments. Your Majesty should not grant pardons, but severely punish them, so as to inspire the morale of the army! "

The military generals pretended to be deaf and dumb, and none of them said anything, just watching these civil servants talking to themselves, the young imperial envoy Yu Xin, who was firmly opposed to violating the ancestral system and cutting down the barriers in the civil servant class, jumped out angrily and shouted: : "Your Majesty, Li Jinglong is unforgivable! Not only Li Jinglong is unforgivable, but Huang Zicheng, who recommended him to lead the army, is also unforgivable!"

When Yu Xin said this, everyone in the room was shocked, and they heard him impassionedly say: "Not only is Huang Zicheng unforgivable, but I heard that the imperial court's rebellious army suffered a big loss in the city of Beiping. If the situation is true, the Minister of War Qi Tai concealed the military situation Fang Xiaoru is in charge of the state affairs and intercepted the memorials of the defeated soldiers, which is also unforgivable. These people tolerate Li Jinglong's incompetent generation, causing heavy casualties to the 80 army of the imperial court, shaking the country; leaving countless families with only orphans and widows, day and night Weeping. Everyone is guilty of unforgivable crimes, and it is not an exaggeration to punish them all!"

As soon as Yu Xin, the angry youth, jumped out, it was a disservice. He was unwilling to kill his big cousin Zhu Yunqi. If Fang Huang Qitai and others were to be held accountable, what capable ministers could he have around him? Died halfway?Faced with such consequences, how could he afford to sacrifice the Shangfang sword in his hand? ! ~!
