Countless people who were mobilized are reinforcing the four walls of Liangzhou Mansion under the supervision of the Liangzhou Army.
Stones and rolling logs were constantly being transported from outside the city to the city.
The moat is also being widened.
The newly recruited soldiers are undergoing the most basic military training.
Food and grass collected from various places were also transported to the city.
The entire Liangzhou Mansion was filled with a tense atmosphere.
The mountain rain is about to come and the wind fills the building.
Although King Guo Mingcheng of Liang tried his best to conceal it, deserters returned from various places every day, making everyone understand that the Liangzhou army was being defeated.
Prince's Mansion.
lobby.
Guo Mingcheng's face was ashen and he sat upright.
All the guests and generals of the palace gathered in the hall.
It was originally according to Zhong Chengyun's plan.
At this time, Liangzhou Jingqi was making a sneak attack on the logistics supplies of the left and right armed guards.
But they still underestimated Qin Yu. Qin Yu had already ordered the left and right military guards to set up an ambush in advance on the retreat of the Rongcheng defenders and Shengqingcheng defenders.
The defenders of Rongcheng and Shengqingcheng suffered heavy losses.
Now the defeated troops in Rongcheng City and the defeated troops in Shengqing City have all withdrawn to Liangzhou Prefecture.
The armed guards on the left and right are heading towards Liangzhou Prefecture.
At this time, Guo Mingcheng is waiting for news from Baima Pass. If Gundam can successfully defend the Wei army's attack, then he will send 10,000 elite troops to Baima Pass to resist Qin Yu's army in the direction of Baima Pass.
As long as they can hold Qin Yu back.
The left and right armed guards wanted to capture Liangzhou Prefecture, but they were just talking nonsense.
In order to rush on the road, the left and right armed guards only carried light siege equipment. Most of the siege equipment was in the Anbei Army.
Therefore, without Anbei's army, Guo Mingcheng can give full play to the power of the ordnance at the head of Liangzhou Prefecture.
Not only did he have the confidence to defend Liangzhou Prefecture, he also had the confidence to defeat the left and right armed guards.
The premise is that Baima Pass can stop Qin Yu.
Guo Mingcheng waited anxiously.
All the generals and guests in the hall also had their brows furrowed.
This time Liangzhou Prefecture has truly reached a life and death moment, and their chances of victory have become increasingly slim.
at the same time.
A messenger rushed in from outside the house, looking anxious, and went straight to the front hall.
The moment the messenger rushed into the front hall.
The hearts of Guo Mingcheng and everyone in the hall were in suspense.
"What!? Can Baima Pass resist Qin Yu's attack!?"
Guo Mingcheng's eyes widened and he stood up excitedly.
The messenger looked sad and angry, and knelt down on the ground with a plop, "Your Majesty! Baima Pass has fallen! General Gundam died in battle!!!"
The sad words of the messenger were like a bolt from the blue, hitting everyone in Guo Mingcheng's heads.
"this......"
Guo Mingcheng felt his brain roaring and fell straight onto the futon, "How could this happen! How could this happen!"
He couldn't understand that even if Baima Pass could not withstand several attacks by the Wei army, there was no reason why it would fall so quickly.
Zhong Chengyun also frowned deeply and asked with confusion on his face: "What on earth is going on? How could Baima Pass fall so easily? Hasn't General Gundam been told how to defend the city?"
The messenger hurriedly explained: "The fall of Baima Pass was due to the fact that the captain Shen Yan, who had fled to Baima Pass at Qingfeng Pass, turned his back on the battle, opened the city gate, and allowed the Wei army to enter the pass!"
The words fell into place.
Everyone in the hall was shocked again.
It's true that the house leaked and it rained all night, and the boat was late and encountered a strong wind.
At such a critical and critical moment, some people actually defected and opened the city gate for the enemy!
"Who!? Shen Yan!?"
King Guo Mingcheng of Liang did not believe it and waved his hand: "Impossible! Absolutely impossible! I know Shen Yan, and he will never betray Liangzhou Prefecture so easily! He is the first lieutenant under Li Chengdao, and he It is impossible to betray this king! Absolutely impossible!"
Zhong Chengyun hurriedly looked at the messenger and asked, "Is there something hidden in this?"
The messenger hurriedly said: "Shen...Colonel Shen Yan was indeed ostracized. That day at the General's Mansion..."
Then he told the whole story of what happened at Baima Pass in detail.
After hearing the whole story, everyone in the hall was quite shocked.
"ah!!!"
Guo Mingcheng was even more furious. He was so angry that he slapped the table in front of him with his palm, "Gundam mistaken me! Gundam mistaken me!!!"
He knew it wasn't that simple.
Guo Mingcheng still knew about Shen Yan. He was from a bad background, but he was very capable, honest, loyal to Liangzhou Prefecture, and got along well with the soldiers.
Such people can be forced by Gundam to defect in battle.
One can imagine how much Gundam went too far.
Guo Mingcheng couldn't understand. His life and death were at stake, and this dog-like God was still fighting in the den.
The current situation at Baima Pass was really caused by Gundam.
He really accepted Gundam. If you really hate Shen Yan, then kill him. Otherwise, ignore the past grudges.
It is really retarded to force others to defect in the face of battle.
Zhong Chengyun felt speechless for a while as he listened.
No wonder Liangzhou Prefecture has fallen to what it is today. Facing such a critical moment, these people cannot unite as one. How can they be invincible when facing such a powerful enemy?
"Sigh... what should we do? The situation was originally very unfavorable to us in Liangzhou Prefecture, and now Baima Pass has fallen again due to Gundam's cunning manipulation. Now the Wei army will rendezvous outside Liangzhou Prefecture. "
"The key is that Qin Yu came with artillery. With a distance of 1,500 steps and an explosive range attack, not only could the defensive equipment at the top of our city not play its due role, but all of them had to be dismantled."
"This Gundam is really damned! If he wants to die, he can just die. Why is he holding us back? This is good. Originally, he wanted to rely on the White Horse Pass to resist the Anbei Army, but now it seems like it was given to others for free. Sample!"
"Wei's 100,000-strong army has not suffered any losses at all. Now our Liangzhou Prefecture, plus the forcibly recruited new army, only has 50,000 troops, and most of them are new troops. How should we fight this battle?"
.......
All the generals and retainers in the hall were talking about it.
They are now very, very worried about the situation in Liangzhou Prefecture.
Ever since the Wei army invaded Liangzhou, let alone fighting an evenly matched battle, they were almost either crushed by the Wei army or ambushed by the Wei army. They had never fought a good battle.
Guo Mingcheng was pacing the hall, also upset.
The fall of Baima Pass by Gundam once again disrupted Guo Mingcheng's rhythm. In such a short period of time, Liangzhou Prefecture's city defenses could not be fully reinforced.
He is upset.
Dayi Sand Wolf Guard General Lalong Zhuojia broke in from outside the hall. Faced with the anger, he burst into anger and said, "Guo Mingcheng! How long are you going to keep this secret from me!?"
