Monk Zonglun deceived him, probably because he was too careful, and he believed it himself. His face was emotional, and his face seemed to be filled with Zen thoughts, but the movement of twisting the beads in his hand unconsciously sped up a lot.
Li Shouzhen's mental state at this time was obviously not normal anymore, and her guilt towards Zong Lun was true, but after hearing his words of relief, the wrinkles on her face disappeared a lot.
"As the master said, destiny is in me. I have been subjected to this kind of training, but I am not strong-willed. I will hesitate even if I have a slight setback..." Li Shouzhen muttered after controlling his emotions and regaining his composure.
From the looks of it, it seemed that he believed Zong Lun's words again, but it was more like he was just looking for comfort from Zong Lun.
"Instruct all armies to be vigilant against the Han army's surprise attack. The generals and generals of all armies must strictly restrain the soldiers. Tell Wang Jixun that if there is any abnormal movement among the officers and soldiers, they can be killed first and then reported!" Taking a deep breath, Li Shouzhen ordered coldly.
During the period since Wang Jixun rebelled, he fought very hard. Although he also lost more than he won against the official army, his bravery and rare small victory made him more and more trusted by Li Shouzhen.
He was appointed as a patrol inspector to inspect Pucheng.
After hearing the order, the two subordinates Sun Yuan and Liu Rui looked at each other and felt that Li Shouzhen had not returned to his usual "heroism". After a slight hesitation, Sun Yuan couldn't help but suggested: "Your Majesty, the Han army is besieging the city.
The people in the city are panicked and the military is in turmoil. Should we send money and food from the government treasury to reward the soldiers and improve their morale?"
After thinking about it for a moment, Li Shouzhen waved his hand: "You hold the Gu hand order, follow this, and tell the sergeants that if you follow Gu, you will be able to defeat the Han army!"
I don't know how many people here believe this, and how much.
When Zong Lun walked out of the palace, he let out a heavy breath, and his body could not help but tremble. He was no longer the same image as a senior monk. The cold wind blew up, and his heart felt cold. Before he knew it, his back was already wet. Just now
Li Shouzhen in the hall obviously frightened him.
Looking back at the still magnificent palace, a strange color flashed through his eyes that had lost their "Buddha spirit".
"Master." The novice monk waiting outside the hall stepped forward nervously and called out humbly.
"Go back to the monk hall and tell me to go down. I want to retreat and pray for the king and the soldiers!" Zong Lun looked solemn and walked away quickly.
However, I was secretly thinking that I had to find a way to escape and protect myself. At the same time, I was inevitably disappointed. I hit it off with Li Shouzhen in the beginning, and after spending so much effort, I finally helped him successfully raise the army. This glorious reputation has not been earned yet.
To the point of falling apart, the danger of life is just around the corner...
Why don't you just start a rebellion? Why did the Han Dynasty react so quickly and violently? Is it because the emperor was too young?
In the hall, Li Shouzhen left his son alone, pressed his shoulder, and solemnly ordered: "Chongxun, I will hand over the fifteen hundred tooth soldiers in the mansion to your command. The situation from now on is unpredictable. If something goes wrong,
, take someone to escort your family for a small breakout. The Han army will only surround you with heavy troops in the east, south, and north. There may be a way out, but you have to make it on your own..."
Hearing Li Shouzhen's heartfelt words, Li Chongxun was stunned. He looked at his father and said doubtfully: "Father, you..."
"Hmph! Does Zong Lun really think that Gu is so easy to deceive? He just tacitly agrees. Now that we have reached this point, the situation is critical, how can Gu not see it!" Li Shouzhen said lightly, with the corner of his mouth raised in a sarcastic arc.
"What should I do, father?" Li Chongxun nodded suddenly and asked urgently.
"Don't worry about Gu!" Li Shouzhen waved her hand and showed a stubborn and low face.
Without explaining anything to Li Chongxun, he drove him out of the hall forcefully. Then he slightly hunched his burly body and dragged his heavy steps to the back of the case. He solemnly straightened his robes and sat down firmly on his desk.
On the throne of King Qin.
...
In the early morning of the next day, the thick fog had not yet dissipated. The officers and soldiers of the two large camps in the east and south of the army had filled their stomachs early, and then moved in an orderly manner. The soldiers with combat missions entered their respective camps under the command of the commanders of each army.
Role and position, ready to attack.
Although the sight was not very clear under the fog, the movements of tens of thousands of people and weapons could not be concealed at all. The dull movements had already aroused the vigilance of the rebels at the east and south city walls.
When the sun rose high and the fog dissipated, the true appearance of the situation below the city was revealed. More than 50,000 officers and soldiers on both sides were neatly distributed within the walls of the village, creating a completely orderly scene.
Previously, many camouflage facilities were built in the construction of the Walled City, but now they have been completely demolished and completely replaced with a new look.

The hundreds of trebuchets arranged near the Walled City also revealed their true appearance. The dozens of three-bow crossbows neatly placed in the front row also tore off the linen coverings. The arrows were thick and long, and the spears were
The feather shone with a sharp cold light. It was a sharp weapon that could almost penetrate the city wall. It was shot at the city, and people could step on it and wait for it.
The atmosphere was serious and tense. Seeing the scene below the city, the guards on the city looked at each other with fear, and there were many gulping sounds. After hearing the news, the guards who came up to the city cursed.
When the rebel commander saw this scene, his expression changed drastically and he couldn't help but lose his voice.
In the south camp, a temporary battle viewing platform was built, nine feet high, at a safe distance. At this time, Liu Chengyou, escorted by his internal guards, stepped on the platform to watch the battle.
Standing high and dying, you can have a panoramic view of the situation of the upper and lower armies in Pucheng, especially the strong power of the officers and soldiers, which gives people a kind of heart-breaking excitement.
Zhao Yanjin stood aside with his sword pressed. Although the army had been deep in the depths for a long time, this was the first time he had encountered this opportunity to see the overall situation. He had never found that the prosperity of the Han army was so fascinating. He couldn't help but look at it carefully and his face was calm.
, Liu Chengyou was drinking tea calmly, and the respectful look on Zhao Yanjin’s face seemed a little more sincere...
"Send the order to attack!" Liu Chengyou, on the other hand, did not care about Zhao Dianzhi's subtle psychological changes. He glanced at the "short" traitor with a cold gaze and said coldly.
After the order was given, the flag-bearing generals posted on the viewing platform immediately waved their flags and gave orders. All of a sudden, the orders were passed in sequence, and the entire army siege formation started to move. War drums beat and shouts suddenly rose.
Accompanied by bursts of neat shouts, the first ones to start were the trebuchets. The twenty-pound stone bullets were pulled by the soldiers with all their strength, and were suddenly launched towards the top of the city. With unparalleled ferocity, they smashed into the wall.
Oar. Specially trained warriors move neatly and smoothly without any sluggishness.
From slow to urgent, from sparse to dense, it gradually grew to a large scale. Soon, in addition to the constant undulations of shouts and chants, there were the sounds of swarms of stone bullets hitting the city, "bang" and "dong".
", one hit after another, a dull and heartbreaking sound, even mixed with the screams and wails of the rebels.
The manpower-pulled stone trebuchet does not have high requirements for the accuracy of the launch. To attack a city, it only needs to be thrown onto the city. In terms of lethality, the threat of stone bombs is actually limited, but it is full of deterrence, especially in
Under intensive attack.
Just looking at the stones flying at high speed is enough to make people feel frightened. There are many guards on the city, so there are always some unlucky ones who will be hit and turned into minced meat in an instant. Such bloody scenes are very scary to the rebels.
The impact on morale is more direct. The quality of Pu's troops in the city is not strong, and many of them are temporarily recruited and trained.
The result was, above Pucheng, hiding, screaming, howling, and chaos...
When Nancheng launched the attack, Dongcheng, under the command of Bai Wenke, also made similar moves. Under the impact of stone bullets, the entire Pucheng almost trembled!
