Li Shimin's army is less than twenty miles away from Qingzhou City.
As Tang Wu'an said before, Li Shimin had no intention of sending an envoy to talk or persuade him to surrender.
After the 50,000 troops he brought camped in the open space outside the city, they immediately began to cut down trees in order to prepare siege equipment.
In the deep forest on both sides of the road, towering trees with ice and snow hanging on them were chopped down with big axes, then tied with ropes and pulled down from the hillside.
Thick trees were continuously transported to the army, and then made into ladders, crash carts, shield carts, trebuchets, etc. on the spot by the craftsmen accompanying the army.
With the appearance of these siege equipment, a sense of killing gradually spread to Gyeongju City.
"Hey, you said we've forced that Yang Wen to do it like this, why doesn't he just jump over the wall?"
Just when the army was busy in full swing, there was a bare mountain not far outside Gyeongju City.
Cheng Yaojin was grabbing his telescope and looking hard into the city. At the same time, he took another bear paw and patted Yuchi Gong beside him and asked.
"I don't know if he can jump over the wall or not! But I know that if you want to shoot again, I'll let you jump off the mountain first!"
After being slapped several times in succession, Yu Chigong finally couldn't help but waved away Cheng Yaojin's big hand and shouted angrily!
"Ah?" Cheng Yaojin was stunned by Yuchi Gong's drink. He put down his telescope and looked at him with a strange expression: "Hey, I'm talking about Yang Wenqian. Why did you jump over the wall in such a hurry?"
"Wow, you're so mad at me! Where is my sword?!"
I have to say that Cheng Yaojin is definitely at the master level when it comes to irritating people! With just one sentence, Yu Chigong was so angry that one Buddha was born and two Buddhas ascended to heaven!
"What? Hei Tantou, you want to fight? I'll help you!"
Cheng Yaojin showed no sign of weakness when facing Yu Chigong. He rolled up his sleeves and stared, ready to take action!
"Shut up you two!"
Seeing that the two guys who didn't know their priorities were about to perform a full martial arts show, Qin Shubao over there couldn't help but let out a low drink, then pointed to a place on the city wall, frowned and asked: "Look, what is that?"
"What?"
Being interrupted like this by Qin Shubao, how could Cheng Yaojin and Yuchi Gong bother to fight? They curled their lips at each other, and then looked together at the position pointed by Qin Shubao.
"Hey, it seems like it's a big flag! It wasn't there just now!"
The telescope in Cheng Yaojin's hand was stolen from Xiao Han last time, so the quality of the telescope was the best among them! Almost immediately, he saw that there seemed to be an extra big flag on top of Qingzhou City.
!
"Big flag?!"
When the others heard what Cheng Yaojin said, they immediately looked at each other with surprise and suspicion in each other's eyes!
"What words are written on the flag?" Li Shimin asked with a trembling voice.
"Wait, let me take a closer look!" Cheng Yaojin rubbed his eyes and looked forward through the telescope!
A gust of north wind blew, and the newly raised flag at the top of the city unfolded in the wind, with a huge "Li" character on it shining in the sun!
"Hey? It's Li Ziqi? What do you mean? He wants to surrender to us?" Cheng Yaojin couldn't help scratching his head and asked after seeing the words on the flag clearly.
Li Shimin stared at the flag in the distance with his eyes, and then gritted his teeth and said: "It is impossible to surrender! You have also read the letter sent by Xue Fang. This Yang Wenqian is not a fool. He can see the consequences of surrender!"
Cheng Yaojin nodded: "Then, why is he raising the Li flag?"
Li Shimin's eyes narrowed: "Send someone to take a look!"
"Then who should we send?"
Cheng Yaojin was still trying to look at the big flag at this time, and asked subconsciously.
Then after these words, the surroundings immediately became deathly silent...
"Hey, you guys, what are you looking at? You don't want me to go, do you?" Sensing something was wrong, Cheng Yaojin put down the telescope and stared wide-eyed, looking in disbelief!
"Ahem, I think Cheng Zhijie is the only one who is qualified for such a big responsibility!" Yu Chigong said with a straight face and a serious look on his face.
That look definitely didn't look like he was adding insult to injury.
However, Cheng Yaojin was very anxious when he heard this: "I'm going! You black carbon..."
"Okay, you go!" Before Cheng Yaojin could finish speaking, everyone interrupted him in unison.
Cheng Yaojin shook violently and almost fainted: "Wait a minute, I said I'm going! It's not that I'm going, it's that I'm going... Okay, I'm going..."
After a long time of anxious explanation, his tongue was almost tied up! But facing a group of bastards who said, "It's up to you", Cheng Yaojin finally had no choice but to accept this tragic reality.
You can never wake up a person who is pretending to sleep! Likewise, you can never explain something that is beneficial to others but harmful to yourself!
"You shameless bastards, just wait for me!"
The wind was rustling and the water was cold! General Cheng came down from the hillside, cursing and leading his horse to Qingzhou City.
It was difficult to walk on the snowy ground. Even on horseback, Cheng Yaojin had a very difficult time walking with one foot deep and one foot shallow until he reached the outside of Qingzhou City.
"People inside, listen! I am the general who put down the rebellion, Wei Chi Gong! His Majesty already knows about your rebellion! There is no point in raising flags now! Those who know how to do it, get out quickly, and maybe you can even leave your body intact!"
"
One person, one spear, and one horse! But Cheng Yaojin's extremely arrogant look really makes people want to ride on him and punch him twice in the face!
"That man is Cheng Yaojin, a general under King Qin."
Just when Cheng Yaojin was yelling at the city gate, Yang Wenqian happened to be standing at the city gate. He calmly explained to a few people around him, with a calm demeanor, as if he couldn't hear Cheng Yaojin's curse.
However, the people around him today seemed to have lost several familiar faces.
"This guy bullies people too much!" Tang Wu'an stood closest to Yang Wenqian. At this time, he was looking angrily at Cheng Yaojin who was still shouting below, his fists trembling slightly.
Below the city, Cheng Yaojin was still cursing, using all kinds of vulgar and slang words that were too easy to hear! If Li Shimin on the hillside could hear it, he would definitely regret the effort he put into these days.
If I had known this, if I had sent this guy to scold the formation every day, sooner or later, Yang Wenqian would be scolded to the point of losing his mind and he would have to fight them hard!
Time, half a cup of tea passed unknowingly, and just when Cheng Yaojin grabbed the snow on the ground for the third time to moisten his throat, Tang Wuan on the city wall seemed to be unable to bear it anymore, and fiercely
He raised his hand and said, "Captain! Let me go down and kill that guy!"
Having said that, without waiting for Yang Wenqian to agree, he got off the city wall with a bang, mounted a fast horse, and rushed out of the city gate!
"Hey, are there really people here? I thought the city was full of eggless cowards!"
Seeing the gate open, only one horse came to kill him. Cheng Yaojin, who was ready to run away, immediately reined in his horse and rushed forward with a big smile!
"Come on, come on, fight me for three hundred rounds, whoever goes first will be the dog!"
