Xia Chu did not think about the chances of breaking through for the moment. Even if she could break through, she would not let Xiao Zimu and Xiao Mubai be torn into pieces by Concubine Li's army...
The agreement between life and death is broad, and it is said by Zicheng.
If Xiao Mubai wants to gamble, she can only stand firmly on the city wall with both feet.
Live with the city and be with him.
If he could really wait until the emperor woke up, he would be waiting for an unfounded hope.
At that time, she and he will retire and give Xiao Zimu a beautiful land.
If you can’t make it…
Even though thousands of people were blocking him, even though there was a bloody journey ahead, even though she knew that she would be involved in this huge force and turn into powder, she would die with him and go to hell together.
Xia Chu had made up his mind and followed the direction of Xiao Zimu's eyes, staring at the more solemn North City Gate in the sunlight without saying a word.
The whole of Chang'an did not wake up with the rising sun, and hundreds of thousands of people stayed at home in fear.
At first, they only heard the sound of the trumpet.
However, not long after, rows of soldiers passed by the window. They pricked their ears to listen to the movements outside. The streets and alleys between the houses and the government offices were empty and silent.
So quiet, so deserted, it makes people feel that the first day is still an endless night...
At this moment, the sound of banging on the door suddenly came from the morning wind, and the thick North City Gate was bombarded time and time again by King Mo's army holding the ramming wood.
Then the horses hoofed and neighed.
The sound of armor and swords clashing could be heard in my ears, and the flags of King Mo's army were fluttering in front of my eyes. Even from such a distance, I could feel the overwhelming momentum of King Mo's army.
Wolf smoke rose from two sides, west and north of Chang'an, outside the two city gates.
The snow mixed with loess was crushed and crushed by the hooves of the galloping horses, and then kicked up, turning into a piece of snowy yellow mud.
In the snowy sky, a large military flag fluttered in the wind, with the red flag written in ink swaying in the wind.
Just one look at him gave him an irresistible aura, and even in the smoke and dust, he was still full of murderous intent.
Lou Hongfang, the former general of Zhao Jiajun and now the cavalry general of King Mo's army, who has experienced countless battles in his military life, is under this flag, looking at his army with extremely complicated emotions, holding up the city wall again and again to bombard the North City. Door.
He was very familiar with the north gate. If Shi Fuqiu was given time to prepare, arrows and stones, he could defend the city with about two thousand soldiers.
No matter how elite Mo Wang's army is, if he only relies on 20,000 troops to attack the city, he may not be able to reach Chang'an even if it takes three to five years.
The capital of Xiao State has been besieged by foreign enemies in history, but it has never been invaded by the enemy into Chang'an City.
At that time when the emperor led troops to fight, no other country even dared to set foot in Xiao's land.
Chang'an, as the capital city, has been pampered and prosperous for many years, and has never fallen into the mud.
Lou Hongfang never thought that one day he would be ordered to attack Chang'an City.
Shi Fuqiu was in the same complicated mood as him. Shi Fuqiu was taken out of the palace by Concubine Li in a daze. By the time he regained consciousness, it was already too late.
Even though he had never had the idea of treason before, the deal was already done. He had been on the same boat with Li Fei for many years and had already earned a reputation.
The only option is to fight to the death.
If you win, you will be the Duke of Zhenguo.
Lost, no!
He won't lose...
Although Concubine Li had told him to guard the North City Gate closely and keep an eye on the 20,000 soldiers Xiao Mubai had brought back.
But he didn't expect that Xiao Mubai would actually order 20,000 troops outside the city to attack the city.
After all, this move is really like hitting an egg with an egg.
Although they also have 20,000 soldiers and horses, the difficulty of defending the city and attacking the city are completely different.
Therefore, even the arrows were temporarily collected by Shi Fuqiu from various mansions.
Shi Fuqiu stood on the turret of the north city gate. Although he was surprised by Lou Hongfang's siege, he was not panicked.
In addition, he only needs to defend for one day, and when Baoning's garrison comes over and attacks from both sides, the so-called 20,000 elite King Mo's army will be dead or alive.
However, Shi Fuqiu, who was standing in the corner tower of the north city, did not know that the smoke was gradually rising and the horn was roaring.
Looking down from the imperial city, one can find that on the outer city wall of Kyoto at this time, dozens of clumps of smoke and dust appeared in the direction of the west gate, and the sound of hoofbeats was like thunder, rumbling from the west gate, along the four streets and eight lanes of Chang'an. On the main road, head towards the North City Gate to attack and kill!
Everything seemed so silent and fast. Countless smoke and dust brought up by the galloping horses were blown towards the city gate. From a distance, it looked like a headless and tailless yellow dragon, which was constantly heading towards Chang'an City, struggling to enter.
At the same time, the smoke also blocked the light cast by the rising sun that broke away from the clouds.
It made everything inside and outside the city gate a little dark.
By the time Shi Fuqiu found out, it was already too late...
He originally thought that this battle would be easy, and he would only need to wait for the arrival of Baonyeong's garrison to attack from both sides.
Who would have thought that the first person to be attacked... would be himself.
Where did Xiao Mubai get another 20,000 troops
But Shi Fuqiu had no time to think about this. He quickly mobilized his soldiers to prepare for the roaring Mo King's army from the west.
However, at this moment, in the middle of Sifang Street in Chang'an, a scene of two opposites appeared.
Xiao Mubai rode Juechen, wearing black armor and a heroic figure, with King Mo's army far behind him.
Xiao Yanjun was alone, wearing brocade clothes and holding a torch, with the Shi Jiajun behind him.
"How about I give this place to you, Chang'an?" The torch in Xiao Yanjun's hand reflected his extremely handsome face.
Xiao Mubai once again thought of Concubine Li's gorgeous face, his eyes moved, and he raised his eyebrows slightly, and said to himself: "I gave this palace to you, how about it?"
Concubine Li knew where Xiao Mubai's advantage was, so she was willing to give in repeatedly and let Xiao Mubai break into the palace, seemingly controlling everything.
Now, she was still pretending to be retreating, while Xiao Mubai was coming with force and seemed to have the upper hand.
In fact, no.
"Second brother, you also know that the garrison is on its way. The North City Gate is not that easy to break. I only need to bring all the power in the capital to resist you for one day. By then, you will not be able to even occupy Chang'an. What's more , since you attacked Ximen, I have sent people to pour pine oil on all the houses. If you don't know how to praise me, I don't mind leaving you a dead city." Xiao Yanjun's voice was not loud, but Not small either.
Concubine Li had already been torn apart in the palace, so what if he, the prince, was to be torn apart again in Chang'an
But this small sound was clearly heard by the people living nearby on the street.
The people who heard these words were shocked...
Yesterday, His Highness King Mo was actually a traitor to the country. How come today, His Highness the Crown Prince, in vain, burns down the entire city of Chang'an to threaten the traitors
