A huge rolling stone appeared on the dome and fell towards this place with terrifying power.
When Li Danqing went to Ma Tuo City to rescue the Qingyun Army, he saw the tragic scene of Ma Tuo City being smashed by the huge rocks blasted by the huge catapult.
This huge boulder looks to be over a thousand times heavier. If it had been hit hard by this blow, it would be difficult for anyone without a divine river realm cultivation level to survive.
Li Danqing, who was thinking about this, ignored the argument in front of him and quickly looked at the people who were still in a daze and shouted: "Quickly leave!"
Most of the people were shocked by the roar and the trembling of the earth just now, and their minds were still in a state of confusion. They finally came to their senses after hearing Li Danqing's screams. Everyone's expressions changed, and they hurried towards this moment.
Retreat everywhere.
Fortunately, everyone's cultivation level was quite good, and Li Danqing's reminder was timely. Even Shi Ziju and Lu Shude, who had no cultivation level at all, were supported by quick eyes and hands, and jumped out of the landing point of the boulder.
Even so, when the boulder hit the city wall, the aftermath and the huge impact of the gravel still knocked everyone to the ground. Many people outside the city wall were not so lucky and were hit by these flying rocks.
, the power contained in those flying stones is extremely powerful. Once touched, it will cause head injuries and bloodshed. For a time, it can be said that there are many victims around the city wall, and it is terrible to see.
Li Danqing helped Lu Shude up on the ground. After making sure that the other party was okay, he turned his head and looked at the scene in the windy city.
Youyun's two huge catapults were still running. When Li Danqing turned his head, another huge boulder fell onto the city wall in the distance. There were far fewer soldiers stationed there than Li Danqing and others.
With such luck, the huge stone fell, and dozens of people were smashed to pieces on the spot. A huge hole was also directly smashed into the city wall. Rubbles and corpses could be seen everywhere. Along with bursts of wailing, this windy city
At the city gate, it was like purgatory on earth for a while.
Li Danqing's body trembled, as if he was stunned by the scene. It took him a while to recover, and he shouted: "Go to the inner city! Quick! Go to the inner city!"
He shouted like this, and everyone around him came to his senses after hearing the words, and started running towards the inner city.
It’s just that the boulders blasted by Youyun are still falling towards the city wall. In addition, there are a large number of refugees gathered at the city gate and the people in Gale City who are helping to transport supplies. The panic caused by the continuous falling of the boulders makes the crowd chaotic.
, everyone was hurriedly escaping towards the inner city, pushing and pulling each other, and the scene was chaotic for a while.
But Li Danqing, who was supposed to be commanding everyone at this time, didn't care about everyone at all. As if he was frightened out of fear, he ran quickly towards the inner city alone.
Seeing this, Xue Yun frowned and cursed: "A dog can't change its habit of eating shit!"
But there was no choice but to take over the burden of command at this moment, stand on a high place, command the Blackwater Army and the disciples of the Ancient Sheep Gate, and evacuate everyone as much as possible.
The gate of the inner city is not big, and there are hundreds of thousands of people gathered in the outer city at the moment. It is not easy for them all to reach the inner city through the city gate. Xue Yun has to direct the people to make the people move in an orderly manner.
Returning to the inner city, we must also lead a large army to resist the Youyun people who continue to attack from outside the city gate as the city gate is broken open.
The two sides were involved, and Youyun's catapults continued to hit huge rocks at the city gate. When the army covered everyone and completely entered the inner city, nearly a thousand soldiers died under the swords of Youyun people.
Xue Yun led the army back to the inner city and closed the city gate. The Youyun people outside the door seemed to feel that they had reached this point. They were already trapped in the urn and did not rush to attack, probably to prevent injury.
Thanks to our own people who had already entered the city, the bursts of rocks also temporarily stopped, and everyone also had some breathing space.
When Xue Yun returned to the inner city, he brought Liu Zizai and others with him. They were all in ragged clothes. Almost all of their armors were damaged. They were covered in blood. It was hard to tell whether it was his own or left by the Youyun people.
.
The common people looked frightened, and many soldiers were also in low spirits. Xue Yun's eyes swept over everyone one by one, but he did not find the figure of that guy. He asked in a deep voice: "Where is Li Danqing?"
Everyone was stunned and looked around, but they did not see Li Danqing's voice.
"I...I just saw that the dean seemed to have returned to Dafengyuan..." Hou Yu muttered quietly.
"Hmph!" Xue Yun snorted coldly when he heard this, turned to look at Liu Ziyan and said: "City Master Liu, please set up defenses here, I will go see what the hell that guy is doing!"
Liu Zizai and others wanted to protect Li Danqing, but Li Danqing's behavior of abandoning everyone just now was a bit too much. Liu Zizai and others didn't know what to say for a while, and they had no reason to stop Xue Yun, so they could only nod.
.But Liu Zizai still winked at Liu Yanzhen, and Liu Yanzhen came over and hurriedly followed the angry Xue Yun. Seeing this, everyone around him also hurriedly followed. The people in Gale City were already in chaos.
After looking around with hands and feet, and not knowing why, they followed the large army to the location of Dafengyuan.
The leader, Xue Yun, had an angry look on his face and walked angrily ahead, leading everyone straight to where Dafengyuan was.
Just as he walked to the entrance of the courtyard, he bumped into someone.
Xue Yun staggered and took a step back, but the man fell to the ground and let out a cry of pain. At this time, the things in his arms were scattered on the ground.
Everyone was startled and looked intently, only to see that the person who fell to the ground was Li Danqing! And the things he held in his arms and scattered on the ground were actually some silver coins and gold utensils.
In one place, if we were to count them carefully, the number would probably be close to one hundred thousand.
number.
"Are you trying to escape?" Xue Yun glanced at the money on the floor, and suddenly seemed to understand something. He looked at Li Danqing with a gloomy expression and asked.
Li Danqing seemed not to have expected that everyone would come so quickly. He came to his senses, lowered his body, and hurriedly picked up the scattered banknotes on the ground, and put them into his arms at random. He hurriedly said: "I
...I was thinking of taking the money and going...to find some reinforcements..."
Li Danqing said this, but with a somewhat stuttering tone and a panicked look on his face, this statement was unconvincing.
"The entire Yingshui County is already in Youyun's possession. Where is Prince Li going to find reinforcements for us?" Xue Yun asked, squinting his eyes.
Li Danqing was speechless for a moment, and Liu Yanzhen frowned and whispered: "Dean... he may have his own plans..."
"Yan Zhen!" As soon as she said these words, Xue Yun shouted, interrupting her words.
"Are you still protecting him at this point?"
"You still can't understand, does he just want to escape? Don't lie to yourself! He is not our dean, he is just the high-ranking Crown Prince Li in Wuyang City!" Xue Yun shouted angrily.
When these words came out, the expressions of everyone present became extremely ugly. Liu Yanzhen's eyes turned red. Looking at the figure who turned a deaf ear to the quarrels of others and just continued to pick up the banknotes on the ground, he felt a stinging pain in his heart: "
He...he won't...he won't."
Liu Yanzhen murmured like this, but her voice became smaller and smaller. It was obvious that she herself could not believe such words. Rather than trying to evade Li Danqing, she was more trying to convince herself.
"Huh!" Xue Yun snorted again when he saw this. He grabbed Li Danqing's lapel, lifted his body high, and asked loudly: "We have come to this step! Li Danqing! Just tell us.
Let’s be honest! Let them understand!”
"Don't you want to escape? If you understand what you said today, I will let you go! Otherwise! We will die together in this windy city!"
Xue Yun's tone was cold and full of murderous intent, making it difficult for anyone to doubt the murderous intent in his heart at this moment.
Everyone present, including Liu Yanzhen, looked at Li Danqing with nervous and complicated expressions.
Li Danqing, whose neck was pinched by Xue Yun, struggled hard for a while, but soon he seemed to realize that he was no match for the guy in front of him. He stared at Xue Yun angrily.
Seeing this, Xue Yun narrowed his eyes and smiled, and said: "Youyun's army outside the inner city is knocking on the door. How long can our manpower last? Prince Li should know better than me. If the stalemate continues, Prince Li may not even want his life."
Alright?"
When Xue Yun said these words, Li Danqing's face suddenly became extremely ugly. He gave Xue Yun a vicious look with unwillingness, finally gritted his teeth at this moment, and said in a deep voice: "That's right... I just want to escape.
…”
Although Li Danqing's various previous performances had already shown his thoughts, when he personally admitted all this, it was still an unacceptable thing for everyone in Dafengyuan.
Liu Yanzhen's face turned pale, and Hou Yu, Jiang Yu and others also looked in disbelief.
"Impossible! The dean must be thinking of something. How could the dean abandon us..." Liu Yanzhen murmured. She walked forward slowly and looked at Li Danqing expectantly.
She hoped that at this time, Li Danqing would nod with a playful smile, and then tell her in a very disgusting manner: "Xiao Yan really understands this prince! This prince is so cunning and strategizing..."
But the fact is that Li Danqing gave her a cold look: "You... are just pawns to me! You don't really think that this prince cares about your life and death, do you?"
The expression on Li Danqing's face and the tone of his mouth were colder than anyone had ever felt before. That look made everyone feel strange, as if they had never really understood the person in front of them.
"You're talking nonsense! In order to save Senior Brother Xue, you made enemies of the people of Yongsheng Palace. In order to vent your anger on us, you refused to deal with several major colleges. And after Yingqu and the others settled in Dafeng Academy, you took the risk to help us take care of them! Everything you said is true.
It's a lie!" Liu Yanzhen said loudly, tears welling up in his eyes, obviously unable to accept this fact.
"Hmph! I know you people don't know much about the world, and if you give me a little favor, you will give up." Li Danqing said with a sneer.
"When I first came to Yingshui County, I had no foundation. You all have powerful backgrounds in Yingshui County. If I take some risks and make you sincerely convinced of me, I will have the foundation to settle down in Yingshui County! You see,
If the Youyun people hadn't destroyed Yangshan, wouldn't I, Li Danqing, have managed the Dafeng Court in a spectacular way? If not, why do you think I'm spoiling you?"
Liu Yanzhen trembled when she heard this, her body shook as if struck by lightning. She bit her head and looked straight at Li Danqing: "No! You must be lying to me! If that's true, then why are you
After Youyun's invasion, you still have to stay in Gale City! And you still have to risk your life to rescue the Qingyun Army?"
Liu Yanzhen asked, which made the sneer on Li Danqing's face get a little thicker.
"You still don't understand why I came to Yingshui County! How can this insignificant place be as prosperous as Wuyang City?"
"If that bastard Ji Qi hadn't exiled me here, how could I have come to a place like this!"
"As soon as Youyun's army arrived, his imperial edict also arrived. I wanted to pack up and leave, but Ji Qi wouldn't let me! He had to leave me here, he wanted me to die! What could I do?
I only
You can pretend to be upright and awe-inspiring. Look, didn’t I win over you and the people behind you? It’s a pity that you natives of Yingshui County are still too weak. I thought I could sustain it for a while.
I might have a chance of winning if I work hard on my connections in Wuyang City. Now it seems that you are just useless trash, vulnerable to the Youyun people. At this point, if I still don’t leave, how can I stay here?
Are you waiting to die here?"
"I am Li Danqing!"
"I am the son of Admiral Tiance! How could I die here!"
Li Danqing said this. The more he spoke, the louder his voice became, and the expression on his face became more and more excited.
Everyone who had just had some illusions about Li Danqing suddenly turned pale and despairing when they heard these words.
They never imagined that Li Danqing, whom they regarded as family and confidant, was actually just plotting against them from the beginning to the end.
"You bastard!" Liu Yanzhen gritted her teeth after hearing these words. Her eyes turned red. At that time, she finally couldn't hold back the anger in her heart. She stepped forward and slapped Li Danqing hard.
There was a loud snapping sound, swinging open in front of the gate of Dafengyuan.
Everyone looked astonished, and Liu Yanzhen was also a little surprised by what she had done. She took a step back and looked at Li Danqing with a bit of bewilderment, who struggled to stand firm after the slap.
Li Danqing touched his face, and the bright red fingerprints on it were shocking.
"With this slap, we are settled." Li Danqing lowered his voice and said this, then turned to look at Xue Yun: "How about it? You wanted to ruin my reputation, and now you got your wish! You can let me go.
Yet?"
Xue Yun took a deep look at Li Danqing in front of him, his eyes full of contempt.
"So many people have sacrificed their lives for you, do you think this will settle the matter?"
When Li Danqing heard this, he secretly thought that Xue Yun was still entangled with him. He suddenly became furious and yelled: "Then what do you want to do? There is still a lot of rice in this Gale City. You ten or so
Ten thousand people can each share enough rations for three months, so if you don’t share it, let’s all run for our own lives!”
After hearing this, Xue Yun was completely disappointed with Li Danqing.
He wanted to say something, but in the end he endured it and turned sideways to make way for Li Danqing.
Li Danqing's face lit up with joy when he saw this. Without any hesitation, he picked up the money in his hand and ran forward. During the whole process, he did not go until his back disappeared from everyone's eyes.
Turn around and take a look at everyone.
…
"I've said it before, this Li Danqing is just an embroidered pillow. As soon as our dragon-carrying car comes out, it will be like a clay doll in a small place like Da Feng City. It will break into pieces when touched!" Ran Ling looked at the giant stone in front of her.
He was very proud to see the torn apart walls of Gale City.
"Your Majesty, what are you waiting for? Let me take people there and bring you back Li Danqing."
Ran Ling said this, but Long Tuo Yan Ya, who was sitting next to him, frowned and turned a deaf ear to what Ran Ling said. He just stared at the city in front of him with a strange expression: "It shouldn't be. This
Is Prince Li really a strong-willed guy?"
"Don't worry, let the army in front test it out..."
"Your Majesty! Our goals are Yanma County and Lanshan County. What's the point of spending time here?" Ran Ling muttered dissatisfied, noting how timid Long Tuo Yan Ya was when facing Li Danqing.
There is dissatisfaction.
Long Tuo Yanya narrowed his eyes and looked sideways at Ran Ling. He was about to say something, but before he could say anything, the board in Ran Ying's hand suddenly lit up again with a dazzling light.
Ran Ying hurriedly stepped forward at that time and told Long Tuo Yan Ya the message transmitted from the ring finger.
After hearing these words, Long Tuo Yan Ya frowned and looked at Ran Ying: "You mean Li Danqing has escaped?"
Ran Ying nodded when she heard this and whispered: "Your Majesty, do you think we should take advantage of their coach's escape and morale loss to send a large army to capture it in one fell swoop..."
Hearing this, Long Tuo Yanya frowned and thought for a while, then stretched out his hand and said: "Don't worry. This Li Danqing has many tricks. Even if it is true, the longer it drags on, the more leaderless the people in Gale City will be, and the more beneficial it will be."
We defeated it with one blow..."
Ran Ying had an indifferent temperament, so she would not refute Long Tuo Yan Ya's words. She nodded and was about to leave, but at this moment the ring finger in her hand lit up for a burst of light. Ran Ying was stunned and hurriedly stepped forward to speak.
"The spies came to report that there is still a huge amount of grain and grass in the city. At this moment, Li Danqing fled, and everyone in Gale City became distraught. Xue Yun opened the granary and prepared to distribute the grain and flee!"
"Huh?" Long Tuo Yan Ya's expression changed upon hearing this, he looked at Ran Ying and asked: "How much food and grass are there?"
Ran Ying whispered: "The quantity is huge, enough to last our army of 400,000 for more than a month and a half..."
"Your Majesty, we don't have much food and grass in our hands. The attitude of the remaining royal families in Youyun towards the supply of food and grass has always been ambiguous. We originally thought of plundering Yingshui County to make up for the shortfall, but Yingshui County has experienced the Yangtze River.
After the mountain collapse, the amount of food was extremely scarce. Along the way, more than a hundred towns were plundered, but the harvest was very little. If this is true, the food we obtained would be enough to support us in conquering Lanshan County and Yanma.
county……"
"But if these grains and grass are taken away by the common people, it will not be so easy for us to recover them!"
"This matter is of great importance, please make a decision as soon as possible, Your Majesty!"
