Wang Quan drew his sword, pointed at Long Chen and shouted.
The crossbowmen on the city fired arrows together, and thousands of arrows flew towards the river.
Long Chen stood on the boat, bent his bow and aimed, the arrow flew out, and shot off the royal flag.
The commander-in-chief flag fell to the ground, and Wang Quan shouted: "Hang up the commander-in-chief flag!"
call out!
Wang Quan felt like he had been knocked on the head, and the feathers on his helmet were gone.
The helmets of Nanliang generals would be decorated with feathers, just like ordinary soldiers would be decorated with red tassels.
Long Chen had just shot off the feathers of Wang Quan's helmet with an arrow, scaring Wang Quan into a cold sweat.
Obviously, the arrow just shot was merciless.
If Long Chen wanted to, he could kill him with one arrow.
The other generals were busy firing arrows and did not notice King Quan's situation, so they continued to shoot arrows at the warship.
The soldiers on the ship raised their shields and leaned against the side of the ship to avoid the arrows.
After several waves of arrows passed by, Liao Yong shouted: "Fire the arrows!"
The crossbowmen on the ship fired back, and the arrows fell on the city wall. The Nanliang soldiers leaned against the city wall to take cover.
The distance between the warship and the city wall was already very close. Long Chen put down his big bow, held an iron spear in his hand, jumped up, and his body turned into a shadow and landed on the city wall.
Wang Quan was still directing the soldiers to defend when he saw Long Chen standing in front of him.
"General Wang, surrender!"
Long Chen held an iron gun and knocked on Wang Quan's helmet.
Long Chen and Wang Quan knew each other, so they didn't kill him directly.
Nanliang is different from Xixia. People in Xixia can be killed if they don’t know them.
There are many old friends in Nanliang, and Long Chen can't do anything.
Just like Cheng Li back then, if he was willing to surrender, Long Chen would not kill him.
Wang Quan looked at Long Chen in confusion, feeling at a loss for a moment.
The general next to him was also confused. Why did Long Chen suddenly appear at the top of the city?
The shouts of killing continued, and the random arrows continued. Only Wang Quan and the surrounding generals stopped.
"I...can't surrender."
Wang Quan's family is in Jinling. If he surrenders, his family will die.
Long Chen raised his spear and hit Wang Quan on Wang Quan's helmet. Wang Quan fell to the ground on the spot.
Lieutenant General Chen Sheng immediately dropped his weapon and shouted: "I surrender!"
Other generals also knew that there was no point in resisting anymore, so they dropped their weapons and surrendered.
The warship leaned against the city wall, and Liao Yong led his troops to quickly occupy Yunqi City.
After entering the commander's residence in Yunqicheng, Liao Yong said happily: "Thanks to King Wu, we only lost a dozen brothers this time."
If you attack according to ordinary methods, it will be impossible to break through without tens of thousands of casualties.
Yunqi City is the same as Houmi Pass. Although the city is small, it is very strong.
If you want to conquer the city, you can only attack it by force and use human lives to pile it up.
Long Chen smiled and said: "There is no powerful general here, so we can take advantage of the opportunity."
"You will come out immediately to pacify the people. The captured soldiers will be escorted to Wushun City. I will return to Linjiang City first."
Farming near Wushun City and Xianhe City needed manpower, and these captives served as laborers.
Liao Yong accepted the order, and Long Chen immediately took a speedboat back to Linjiang City.
...
Jinling City.
Yu Ziming, the Minister of War, looked at the battle report and was so angry that he slapped the table and cursed: "What does Xuanjizi know? Besides playing with concubines, what else can he do!"
"Any talk about Yunqi City restraining Long Chen's troops is bullshit. Yunqi City is gone!"
The news of Yunqicheng's fall reached the Ministry of War, and Yu Ziming was very angry.
General Wang Quan was killed in the battle, Yunqicheng's navy was wiped out, and the rest surrendered and were captured.
Sun Yu, the Minister of War, advised in a low voice: "Sir, be careful what you say, be careful what you say."
No matter how little Xuanjizi is, he is still Gui Fei's confidant. Yu Ziming cursed like this because he was afraid of Xuanjizi's revenge.
Others retaliate by killing and silencing, Xuanjizi retaliates by raping and humiliating his wife and daughter, which is even more abominable.
Yu Ziming was still angry and hurried into the palace with the battle report.
This time, he didn't look for a mystery, but directly looked for a ghost.
Yu Ziming still had feelings for Daliang, and he couldn't bear to see Daliang's soldiers die in vain.
When we arrived at the Imperial Study Room, the ghost fetus was not there.
After asking the eunuch, he said that the ghost fetus was in the imperial garden, so Yu Ziming immediately went to the imperial garden.
The entourage was guarding the door. Yu Ziming stepped forward and said carefully: "I want to see the Holy Son. I have an urgent battle report."
The entourage went in, and after a while, Yu Ziming was put in.
The ghost fetus was sitting under the pavilion in the pond, feeding the fish with fish food in his hand.
"Slave Yu Ziming pays homage to the Holy Son."
Yu Ziming knelt down and kowtowed, looking very respectful.
The ghost boy ignored Yu Ziming and continued to feed the fish.
"I just got the battle report. Yunqi City was captured by Long Chen. The general was killed and the soldiers surrendered."
Yu Ziming held up the battle report, Long Ye took it and handed it to Guitai.
Guite did not look at it, but said calmly: "This is a matter for your Ministry of War, you can handle it yourself."
Yu Ziming replied: "Long Chen's momentum is fierce. After capturing Yunqi City, he will definitely gather his troops to attack eastward. Please give the Holy Son's decree on how the slaves should respond."
After finishing scattering the fish food in Gui Fei's hand, he turned to look at Yu Ziming.
"Xuanjizi is the national master, you just have to discuss it with him."
Yu Ziming's heart skipped a beat and he bowed: "Xuanjizi knows about sexual pleasure all day long and doesn't understand military affairs at all. Yunqicheng asked to retreat many times, but Xuanjizi made a mistake in judgment and said that Yunqicheng was used to contain Long Chen. As a result,
Losing troops and generals."
Of course Guitai knows that Xuanjizi knows about sexual pleasure, he just doesn't bother to ask.
"Let Li Chengdao come out. It's time for Long Chen to gather his troops to attack Linhu City. Let Li Chengdao come out and take charge of military affairs."
"Don't make such a fuss. It's just Yunqicheng. I will personally come to Linhu City to meet the enemy."
Gui Fei didn't care that Yunqi City fell. In his opinion, Yunqi City was an isolated city.
Leaving soldiers to defend the city can also consume Long Chen's troops, which is a good thing.
Yu Ziming bowed and said: "I accept the order, and I will retire." ⑧①ZW.????m
Climbing out of the Imperial Garden, Yu Ziming slowly arrived at the East Palace.
Once here, Yu Ziming did not dare to go in and see Li Chengdao.
After waiting for a long time, when Zhong Gui finally went out, Yu Ziming immediately greeted him.
"Father-in-law, long time no see."
When Zhong Gui saw Yu Ziming, he said calmly: "Why is Master Shangshu free to come here?"
Zhong Gui was extremely disappointed with these ministers in the court, and so was Yu Ziming.
Yu Ziming immediately said: "The Holy Son has an order, please ask the emperor to come out and preside over military affairs."
Zhong Gui was even more dissatisfied. These ministers all ordered Li Chengdao to do things under the name of ghosts, without the courtesy of a monarch or a minister.
"Oh, you go and report it to the emperor."
Zhong Gui said coldly, turned around and entered the East Palace, not wanting to pay attention to Yu Ziming.
Seeing that Zhong Gui ignored him, Yu Ziming had no choice but to bite the bullet and enter the East Palace.
It was deserted inside, with weeds growing in the gaps between the floor tiles in the yard and cobwebs on the windows.
When Yu Ziming arrived, he looked at the footprints on the ground and arrived in front of a secret room.
Facing the secret room, Yu Ziming bowed and said: "I am a humble minister, Yu Ziming, asking to see the emperor."
There was no response from inside and the door was still closed.
Yu Ziming waited for a long time and paid his respects again: "My humble minister, Yu Ziming, is here to meet the emperor. The Holy Son has something to convey to me."
After a while, the door slowly opened, and Li Chengdao was standing at the door wearing thin clothes. His beard was a little messy, his hair was messy, and he looked very haggard.
"Wei ministers pay homage to the emperor."
Yu Ziming wanted to kneel down, but felt that he shouldn't.
Li Chengdao said coldly: "If you have anything to say, just say it."
Yu Ziming immediately bowed and said: "The Holy Son has an order, please ask the emperor to come out and preside over military affairs."
Li Chengdao said coldly: "Didn't we discuss it last time?"
Last time, Guitai asked Li Chengdao to arrange military affairs, and Li Chengdao discussed it once in Chengtian Palace.
Yu Ziming said: "Long Chen captured Yunqi City, Wushun City and Xianhe City were also captured. Soldiers and horses gathered in Xianhe City. The situation is critical. The Holy Son asked the emperor to take charge of the overall situation."
Li Chengdao said expressionlessly: "General Xuanjizi is in charge of government affairs, just look for him."
