Qiqi Biyu's "grasp" became shaky with the arrival of Li Xian's army. He almost immediately felt the impatience and beating of the minds of the soldiers and people in Heishan City, and his rule was unstable.
Turn around from the city wall and walk down.
On the wall that I walked past, there were countless soldiers with weapons guarding groups of civilians.
These people, both men and women, looked frightened. Under the supervision of soldiers, they did not dare to make any sound and were carrying stones in their hands.
These are the people in Black Mountain City who were brought in to carry supplies.
Ignoring the fearful expressions of the people, Qiqi Biyu walked down the stone steps with a gloomy face and came to the bunkhouse under the city tower.
In this world where the Thunderbolt Chariot has become a regular siege weapon, during siege battles, apart from the inner city far away from the front line, the safest place is the inner foot of the city wall that cannot be hit by stone bullets.
In the center of the bunkhouse, a stone house was the officer's quarters for the city gate garrison. Now it has become a temporary resting place for the beggar Biyu. As soon as he sat down on the chair, someone came outside to see him.
"Sir, Mr. Du wants to see you." The guard reported from outside.
Mr. Du and Du Zhenzhi, both from Qi, have been Qiqi Biyu's confidants for many years and have always been the most important figures in Black Mountain City.
When Qiqi Biyu heard that it was him who had arrived, he immediately said: "Let him come in."
"Yes, sir."
After a while, a thin man walked in from the outside. He was slender, with a elegant scholar's shirt, and he was still a bit dashing, but his eyes were bloodshot and dull.
As soon as he came in, Du Zhenzhi first bowed respectfully to Qiqi Biyu who was sitting on the seat, and said with a worried look: "Sir, Heishan City has been trapped by the Qi army on all sides, and the soldiers and civilians in the city are in constant turmoil. It's just that.
Last night, more than a hundred people descended on the city. If this continues, the military morale in the city will be in chaos. Sir, you need to make a decision early."
"Oh? Is the morale of the army in chaos?" The smile on Qiqi Biyu's face suddenly froze, and he repeated this sentence again, raising his head and staring at Du Zhenzhi.
Seeing Du Zhenzhi break out in cold sweat, Qiqi Biyu withdrew his gaze and said lightly: "In your opinion, how can we reverse the situation?"
Du Zhenzhi was so frightened that his heart almost jumped out of his chest. He laughed twice to calm down his emotions. Hesitation arose in his heart, but he thought about the situation in the city and hesitated. Finally, he had the courage to persuade him and said: "Sir,
In Yizhen's opinion, this battle cannot be fought any longer. This moment of dormancy is really nothing. The green mountains are left, so there is no need to worry about running out of firewood. At present, the rest of the Black Mountains are under the control of the Qi army, only this one
The county city cannot be defended for a few days. If you don't pretend to surrender to the Qi army first, you can slowly regain your strength secretly. If there is an opportunity in the future, it will not be too late to make a comeback... If it continues to be wasted, not only the people in the city will be afraid of death.
Treason. Even the Qi army outside the city will not tolerate you anymore."
"Are you trying to persuade me to surrender?" Qiqi Biyu's eyes were as cold as the cold light shining from the abyss.
Du Zhenzhi's heart was beating wildly and her vest was soaked with sweat. She hurriedly said: "Sir, you are just pretending to surrender. One day when the time comes, you can try to make a comeback!"
Qiqi Biyu obviously didn't want to hear any more. He stood up suddenly and shouted outside: "Come here."
"My lord" heard the commotion, and several armed guards came in from the door.
Qiqi Biyu pointed at his former confidant Du Zhenzhi, who was facing him and turned pale with fright: "Drag him out and kill him!"
"Yes, sir."
The personal guards were all selected from Qiqi Biyu's most die-hard tribe. They only had eyes for Qiqi Biyu and did not care who Du Zhenzhi was. Not to mention Du Zhenzhi, who had offended the clan leader and completely lost power.
Several personal guards couldn't help but drag Du Zhenzhi up and walked out.
"Sir, you can't be like this. My lord, Zhenzhi has been by your side all these years, and there is no merit but hard work. My lord, I just don't look at the merits Zhenzhi has made for you, but only because I have been running around for so many years.
"Come on, please spare this little man's life, sir..." After Du Zhenzhi was dragged out, his shouts became farther and farther away.
When the sound was no longer heard, Qiqi Biyu sat down again with a gloomy face.
I picked up the tea cup and just took a sip when I couldn't help but fall to the ground and hurt myself.
"Sir!" Hearing the sound from inside, another guard from outside immediately entered, only to see Qiqi Biyu sitting there with a gloomy expression.
"Step back." Qiqi Biyu said coldly without even looking at the personal guards who came in.
"Nuo." Seeing that Qiqi Biyu was fine and just venting his bad mood, the guards stepped back respectfully.
"Wait a minute, let Renya come here to meet me." The guards were about to cover the door, and Qiqi Biyu suddenly spoke. Renya is the number one warrior under him, the number one general under him, and the same
His number one confidant can be described as loyal.
"Yes, sir." Hearing this, the bodyguard retreated.
After a while, Renya stepped in from outside and stopped at the door: "I've seen you, sir."
"Come with me to the top of the city for a walk." Qiqi Biyu stood up and walked out. He was very hurt by the 'betrayal' of his close adviser, and said as he passed by Renya.
"Nuo." Renya respectfully followed Qiqi Biyu towards the city.
When the two of them came to the top of the city and looked at the army below, Renya couldn't help but touch the wounds on his body and sighed secretly.
As a front-line general, he was very aware of the unstable military morale in the city.
Qiqi Biyu was defeated and almost died before. Although he escaped back to the city, the situation was over. Even if there were direct troops to suppress him, it would be of no avail because the people's hearts had been dispersed!
Neither of them spoke. How could Qiqi Biyu not know what Ren Ya knew. Even the counselor Du Zhenzhi had 'betrayed' him.
"When the city is really destroyed, let this Black Mountain City and my Qiqi family be buried together, and never fall into the hands of the Qi army." Qiqi Biyu thought firmly in his heart.
"Renya." After a while, Qiqi Biyu drank.
"The end will be here."
"Have you prepared all the things I asked you to prepare a few days ago?" Turning around, Qiqi Biyu looked at his confidants with blazing eyes.
"Sir, we are all ready." Renya's face changed slightly, but he still replied respectfully.
Qiqi Biyu nodded, with a gloomy expression. "Okay, keep this matter secret carefully. Stay until the end and listen to my orders."
"Yes, sir."
Outside Heishan City, there is a continuous large camp, which looks spectacular.
It was dark at this time, and the oil lamps in each tent had been extinguished.
Only the main tent of the Chinese Army was brightly lit, and the table was full of documents. Li Xian was waiting for the arrival of someone, so he did not fall asleep at this time.
Time passed little by little, and finally a figure entered the big tent.
"How is the situation?" Li Xian put down the pen in his hand and asked with his eyes as bright as beads.
"General Li, Du Zhenzhi has been beheaded by Qiqi Biyu, and his attempt to persuade him to surrender has failed." The black shadow replied.
"Then follow the follow-up plan and instigate a few generals to surrender to the city." The light in Li Xian's eyes dimmed.
"No." The black shadow quietly retreated.
The military morale in Heishan City is turbulent and public opinion is impetuous. It is necessary to capture this city!
The Qi army needs to kill chickens and scare monkeys, and use the head of Beggar Biyu to alert the entire alien race outside the territory. Similarly, Li Xian also needs to perform well in front of Zhu Biao to reflect his own value!
For Zhu Biao, what is more important is to use this as an entry point, little by little, to slowly integrate the foreign forces outside the region.
Because the territory outside the territory is too large, with high mountains and dense forests, and foreign tribes as numerous as ants, Qi State does not have the real strength to swallow them whole. However, he must hold in his hands the familiar land that has been cultivated for a long time, such as the homeland of Goryeo.
Without these cultivated lands, relying solely on the backward productivity of the alien tribes, the alien tribes outside the region would not be able to accumulate as much power as the Goryeo before, and they could actually sweep the counterattack——
Due to the limitations of food, the limitations of weapons and armor, and the invisible hand of darkness that Qi State has stretched out, the future will be a world of tribal competition for supremacy outside the territory, but their level is only limited to the level of tribal competition for supremacy.
.
A foreign country like Goryeo, whose institutional productivity is no less than that of the Central Plains vassal states, will become an eternal phenomenon and will never appear again.
Lieshui Kingdom will not become the second Koryo Kingdom, because Zhu Biao has already set his sights on it. Soon, one blow after another will make him degenerate from a country into a 'tribe' again!
The entire civilization beyond Dongyu will undergo a major degradation. And this is Zhu Biao’s plan! (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!
