Chapter 215: The Shocking Change in the Principal City III
Previously, a group of civil officials ran out of the outer city from the official road in panic and nervously, but they still remembered the instructions of the Taifu. They found the army to suppress the enemy's return. Because the riots in the city were too serious and the troops were insufficient, most of the troops in the palace were dispatched. However, they were caught by the enemy's plan and took advantage of the lack of skills in the guards, they killed the palace guards and created a serious palace change.
When the doctor Ling received the news from the rebel army, he immediately thought that the young master was still in the palace. Half of his body suddenly became cold. His other half of his body had not yet been cold because they said that the Taifu had rushed over. Without saying much, he immediately brought the troops behind him to the palace to support him. However, they never met the Taifu. Whenever they hurried to a place to save people and quell the chaos, they could only see the rebels who fell to the ground...
When the doctor ordered the entire palace, he didn't even catch a living rebel. They felt that this trip to the palace might... just support loneliness?
Wei Wei asked dryly without knowing the situation: "Prefecture, palace..."
"It has been cleared up." The Taifu's voice was a little low and silence, which was different from her usual warmth and gentleness.
Seeing her lingering bloody aura, you can imagine the consequences of the rebels.
They all shivered and looked at her with a terrifying and admiring look.
Martial arts worship the strong, which is an eternal psychology.
Chen Baiqi threw away a long sword in his hand with a bent blade. The circle of white hair inlaid on the sleeves of the purple robe was already scarlet. The neatly combed hair of the temples slipped a few strands between her cheeks, which made her skin look cold and transparent. She looked up at the sky and suddenly said, "It's time to come."
After these endless tricks and tricks end, it's time to serve as a real dish.
The Weiwei reacted quickly, and he quickly said: "The Tingwei brought his troops to the residences of the doctors to communicate. The Chief Commander and the Chief Commander led people to clean up the streets. The Censor and the Chief Commander had gathered all the troops and were ready to fight back at any time."
Her expression was extremely faint. She looked at Wei Wei, but she didn't say anything, but only sent a message to his ears: "The young master is not in the palace, nor did she find the people sent by Gong Zheng and me. I think it was hiding somewhere. You personally bring a group of people to continue looking for the young master, don't make a statement."
Wei Wei was stunned for a moment, and for the first time he was secretly heard, staring at her with some uncertainty.
"Did you hear it?" Chen Baiqi frowned and said.
He was sure of it now and immediately said, "Here."
Chen Baiqi turned his gaze: "The rest of them continued to patrol the city as planned, and arrested immediately when they encountered suspicious people. If the stubborn spirit resisted, they would be killed on the spot!"
"Here!"
They all answered one by one.
Chen Baiqi turned around and turned into a light smoke and disappeared in front of the city gate. Although she was still worried about Aguai and Si Jiang, the more imminent thing was the enemy troops coming to attack the city. If she could not defend Xianyang City, the old people with inconvenience in legs and feet on the day the city was broken, and the children of the Qin people would be killed. The cows, sheep, property, fields, and the Xianyang City in the city would all become the possessions of the invaders.
She stepped onto the city wall and stood above the high city. She saw the busy soldiers coming and going back and forth, watching the garrison soldiers splashing onto the city wall with buckets of black liquid. The dark and viscous liquid falling from the high place flowed down the gray and black city wall with a layer of black and smooth.
She stared at them for a while and asked them, "What is this?"
Without waiting for their answer, a lukewarm voice said first: "Look at this body of blood is stronger than that of the generals fighting on the battlefield. It is hard to believe that you are the Grand Tutor in charge of etiquette and education in the State Administration."
Chen Baiqi knew who he came without looking back: "Are you very idle?"
After stinging her for a few words, Ji Ying waved her hand and let the others continue to work. He said, "This is lacquer, which can make the rough wall smooth and difficult to climb, and can also prevent fire attacks."
As a royal city, Xianyang City was renovated and raised at one time. It was made of large stone strips. In addition, the height was more than three meters above the average city wall. The arrow tower and the city gate were all made of rocks and stone slabs. It looked powerful and terrifying. Now, with the lacquer, whether it is fire attack or cloud ladder climbing, it has greatly deepened the difficulty, which can discourage the attackers.
Chen Baiqi really admired Qin's military talent. She said: "There is no general in the city, but I want to bother you, a civilian, to be the general of the city guarding."
"Chen Rui, this battle... do you think we can hold on?" There was a little blurry fog in Ji Ying's eyes. His voice was very light, and the wind blew and melted into the night.
The other party came prepared, and shortly after the King of Qin passed away, they arranged these plans. They first created rumors and panic, intentionally, left, right prime minister and special envoy of the State Government to quell the civil strife, and then set up an ambush along the way, intending to cut off the wings of Qin, and sent troops to provoke outside the pass, forcing them to send troops to Hangu Pass to suppress the city. In the end, their goal was to take down Xianyang City!
If Chen Rui hadn't had the pre-examination of the danger and had been prepared for it, they would have been afraid that when they knew nothing in their dreams, they would have been taken away by someone, breaking through the city gate, and taking the palace. At dawn, Xianyang City would be completely captured and become the enemy's combat power.
Chen Baiqi said: "I don't know if you can keep it."
He looked at her suddenly.
"But I can,"
There was not a decisive tone, but just an undoubted tone.
Ji Ying suddenly laughed: "Baru."
He evaluated her.
But he said again, "I believe in you, too."
This was the first time Chen Baiqi heard his dog spit out ivory from his mouth.
But before she could speak again, the first batch of enemy troops had already spread to the hillside not far from the city wall like a black tide. When they saw the Xianyang City Gate, which was still closed, they stopped in surprise. Now it was the same as the agreed time, but an accident occurred. It was obvious that all this was arranged so meticulously, so what was the mistake?
In the night, the other party did not raise any marked flags, but the bad situation of the arrival of the person did not weaken at all.
"Who is coming below?" Ji Ying stood on the city wall and shouted loudly.
The other party did not answer. Without saying a word, the forwards in the hooded hood fell off their horses and took out something from their pockets. When they ran, they lowered their upper body like a cheetah. They swung around in their hands and threw a long rope of iron hooks to hang the walls, trying to climb up the rocks. However, a layer of lacquer in Xianyang City had just fallen down. The paint was not dry, as smooth and sticky as oil. Their pointed hooks were not stable at all. They just climbed up a few steps, and they almost lost their focus and slid down apart.
"It doesn't look like the army sent by a country in the Central Plains, but like a group of dead soldiers. There is no need for general command, and it only takes one order to complete it." Ji Ying stared at the humanitarian side.
Seeing that they encountered setbacks, Chen Baiqi did not retreat and continued to work hard to climb a little higher. A group of people behind him took advantage of the strength to step on the height of their backs and rushed up. The iron hook with great tension was swinging and sliding a few scratches on the wall.
"I want to climb the city wall in this way?" Ji Ying took a step back and waved: "Cum down."
The feather army, which had been prepared in the arrow tower, shot arrows down with a crossbow. The enemy at the top had nowhere to hide in the air and fell to the ground. At this time, the second group of enemy troops also arrived. They pushed out a strange-shaped car from the rear, without windows or doors, and were not made of wood, but with fine iron. There were four shafts below it. The place where the door was supposed to be in the front was sealed, leaving only four large holes.
At this time, the top of the car was opened, and a person stood up inside. He adjusted the position of the car, and after aiming, he stepped on a position. He saw four extremely flexible steel bars shot out from the four large holes. The force of the steel bar was shot out particularly huge. In addition, the front end of the steel bar was made into an arrow cone shape, and it shot into the wall and smashed into a deep pit. The steel bar had a reverse stab and was embedded in the stone pit and locked firmly.
In this way, four long steel cables were pulled out from the iron cart to the city wall, like four slender bridges built up.
"Maybe the iron cart of the equipment be the Mo family... it's not them!" Ji Ying's face changed when he saw this scene.
Chen Baiqi said: "This iron car is extraordinary, it must be done by mechanical experts. Now it is not the time to think about these things. They are coming up soon!"
But in an instant, it is easy to seize the opportunity and step on the steel cable one after another, and rushed up the city wall like a flying man.
First of all, the arrows were not far enough, and the night was insufficient, so the other party had already taken advantage of the chaos to get on many people. The arrow tower was also missing one another. Chen Baiqi had prepared troops early to transport a truck of oil-rolled stones and kept throwing them down at the largest gathering of people. Even if they avoided being smashed by stones, they would inevitably get some clothes on them. Then they threw the torch at them, and the people who were restricted on the iron chain burned their bodies for a moment, like balls of Mars falling to the ground.
Chen Baiqi looked farther away and the third group of opponents was about to arrive.
"None of these people are ordinary soldiers, and this method can't be resisted for too long." She said in a deep voice.
Ji Ying clenched her fists and said, "As long as the city gate is not broken, let's see who can hold on until the end."
At this time, Chen E Baiqi suddenly heard a strange cry from a distance, like the barking of a dog or the hiss of a wild beast at night. In short, it was very uncomfortable to hear it. No, not just one sound, but one sound after another, and finally it was a buzzing sound.
She suddenly looked up and saw that in a thick dark night, something was approaching this side at a rapid speed. Black shadows were whipping from the ground like whips, which were so fast that they could be dazzled. They did not have to step on objects and flew up. Whether it was the galloping arrows or the throwing stones, they were lightly avoided. They landed on the steel cable, but the steel cable did not shake at all, like a snowflake falling on the eaves.
