Dressed as a tyrant and kissing the little queen

Chapter 293 Siege
However, now that the matter has come to this point, it doesn't matter what Ling Junxing thinks.

The most important thing right now is how she leaves.

Qin Luoyu originally wanted to find a chance to escape in Jizhou City.

But right now the army of the Ling Kingdom is outside the city, and she doesn't want to take any risk of being discovered by Ling Junxing.

Staring at the map and thinking about it, Qin Luoyu decided to wait until the return trip.

It takes about four days to return from Jizhou City to Pingliang City. To the west of the return journey is the Langshan Mountains. As long as she can escape and enter Langshan, she may have a chance to escape.

After all, the battle is imminent, and Xiao Shangyan has to go back to prepare for the retreat, so it is impossible to go all out to find her.

Qin Luoyu had made up his mind and went to bed early at night.

In the middle of the night, with the faint sound of fire and fighting, she woke up suddenly, quickly put on her clothes and opened the door.

The guards stood outside the door, preventing her from stepping out of the room: "The army of the Ling Kingdom is attacking the city, and the young master has gone to the tower to set up defenses. It is better for the third princess to wait inside."

Qin Luoyu had no choice but to go back to his room.

The fighting outside became louder and louder, and the flames lit up half the sky.

Qin Luoyu's mind subconsciously recalled the tragic fight that night in Luocheng, and he felt a little uneasy, as if he was sitting on pins and needles.

Xiao Shangyan said that Jizhou City is easy to defend and difficult to attack, if the Xiaoqi Battalion attacks by force, the casualties will be heavy.

Since Ling Junxing is here, will he, will he personally lead the army to attack the city?
I hope, I hope he doesn't get hurt, nothing happens.

The gates of Jizhou City were billowing with thick smoke, and the flames were soaring into the sky.

The rockets of the army of the Ling Kingdom swished into the city tower, the dark sky was reddened by the fire, and the sound of fighting was deafening.

Accompanied by the sound of fierce fighting, the heavy banging on the door sounded like thunder, and it sounded firmly and forcefully, and the city tower seemed to be shaken by the impact.

The soldiers of the Xiaoqi Battalion fought hard, trying to climb the tower from the ladder.

One was cut down, and the other rushed up one after another, as if they couldn't kill them all, one after another.

The northern guards on the tower swung their swords and hacked into a group of soldiers from the Ling Kingdom who were trying to climb the tower.

Xiao Shangyan swept across the fire below the city, and frowned fiercely, "How did this fire burn so fast? You didn't know how to put out the fire before?"

The weather is so cold and it is snowing lightly, even if there is a fire, it can be extinguished quickly.

But when he came, the fire was already burning so big, what were the defenders doing?
The guard wiped the blood from his face, and almost cried: "Young master, the people of Ling are playing tricks! They pretended to be my tribe from the North, saying that Pingliang City has been lost!"

The [-] troops of the Ling Kingdom stood outside the south gate, attracting their attention.

But they secretly sent a team to change into Beidi people's clothes. In the middle of the night, they ran to the west gate in embarrassment and called them the soldiers of Pingliang City in Beidi dialect.

They said that the army of the Ling Kingdom raided Pingliang from Langshan Road, Pingliang City was lost, and they had to meet the young master urgently, "If the military situation is delayed, you can't bear it!"

The other party spoke a Northland dialect, his words were convincing, and he acted in a panic, with injuries all over his body, so he couldn't help but believe it.

Pingliang is their base camp, if Pingliang city is lost, the consequences will be disastrous.

The general guarding the city at Ximen asked the opponent to wait outside the city, and he went to ask the young master to come in person.

Some soldiers who looked seriously injured got off their horses and sat by the city gate to rest on the pretext of being too tired.

Then the next moment, the place where they stayed, suddenly ignited a fire.

Those people actually ignited the fire oil in the water bag together.

Almost at the same time as the flames burst into the sky, the rest of the soldiers who were still on horseback suddenly raised their bows and arrows, and densely packed rockets shot at the tower.

The guard didn't pay much attention to the fire at first. In such a cold day, with light snow falling, the army of the Ling Kingdom wanted to use fire to attack, wouldn't it be ridiculous.

But when they started looking for water to put out the fire, they found that the fire was burning too fast, almost weirdly fast.

Wherever the rocket hits, there will be flames everywhere.

Those rockets were tied with old cotton wool clothes that had been soaked in kerosene, once they got stuck, they couldn't be extinguished at all!

Taking advantage of the cover of the fire and the brief chaos on the top of the city, the ambushing army of the Xiaoqi Battalion took the opportunity to advance and attacked the city in the blink of an eye.

And when the flames came together, the more than [-] Ling Kingdom troops who had been standing still outside the south gate also moved, moving as swiftly as the wind and as fast as thunder.

However, the Ling Kingdom does not only have the armies of Nanmen and Ximen.

They also ambushed people and horses at the east gate. When the fire broke out, they launched a violent attack on Jizhou City almost at the same time.

At this moment, Jizhou City can be said to be attacked on three sides.

Xiao Shangyan dodges a ferocious rocket, and the rocket brushes past his robe, causing a big fire on his body.

The guard hurried over and helped Xiao Shangyan put out the fire on his body.

Xiao Shangyan stared at the rocket with an extremely cold expression.

Fierce fire oil is an extremely scarce thing. Xiao Shangyan has fought in the Great Qin for many years, and has also used the strategy of attacking with fire.

However, compared with the fire attack of Lingguo, it can be said that it is insignificant.

He didn't know where the Ling Kingdom got the fuel, and he didn't know how many rockets the Ling Kingdom army had prepared.

But judging from this posture, they are just arrows shot by the army of the Ling Kingdom, and if they are piled up together, they can ignite a monstrous fire.

Lord Ling is acting like a man, and the use of troops is really unpredictable and unpredictable.

However, wanting to capture Jizhou City tonight is wishful thinking!
Xiao Shangyan calmly adjusted his battle strategy, and urgently dispatched two mobile troops to support Sanmen at any time.

Just when the offensive of the Ling Kingdom army was gradually suppressed, a general came rushing staggeringly.

His body was blackened by smoke and fire, and his clothes were stained with a lot of blood, but he held an urgent report in his hand and gasped, "Young Master, Pingliang City, Pingliang City has changed."

Xiao Shangyan's face changed slightly, and he snatched the urgent report with his hands.

The letter was written by Zha Hetie, it was extremely short, and the handwriting was extremely scribbled, it was obviously written in a hurry.

There was only one sentence in the letter: "The army of the Ling Kingdom descended out of thin air through the Langshan trail and raided Pingliang!"

Langshan was originally stationed with tens of thousands of horses, but in order to support Jizhou City, Xiao Shangyan just allocated [-] Pingliang troops and horses to support Jizhou a few days ago.

The elite and heavy soldiers of the Northland are all in Jizhou City, less than 2 troops are stationed on the front line of Langshan, and there are only more than [-] troops in Pingliang City.

Since the enemy army was able to raid Pingliang, it is obvious that the 2 troops on the front line of Langshan could not stop the army of Lingguo at all, and it is very likely that the entire army has been wiped out.

If the 2 horses in Pingliang City were prepared in advance, they might be able to survive for a while, but I'm afraid they won't be able to last for too long.

Xiao Shangyan clutched the urgent report tightly, and the blood on his face faded away in an instant.

He finally understood what Lingjun Xing decided to ask him to come to Jizhou City for a meeting.

Brightly repairing the plank road and secretly hiding Chen Cang, this move is really too high!

He tore the urgent report into pieces with a sullen face, "Leave 8 people and defend Jizhou City to the death! The rest of the soldiers and horses will return to Pingliang immediately with me!"

Pingliang City must not lose anything.

If Pingliang is lost, it will not be so easy for them to retreat to the desert!
