Chapter 163: The plan worked

Following.

After a night of silence, Dongfang saw white, and Li Baiyu, who was sleeping soundly with the Son of Heaven Sword, was awakened by the sound of drums and horns outside the city, and subconsciously opened his eyes and walked out of the attic under the city tower with the Son of Heaven Sword.

Li Baiyu, who has experienced more than 20 days of war, is now more like a battle-hardened general than the king of a country.

Li Baiyu looked at the Praetorian Guards gathered on the city wall and looked out of the city.

Looking at the rebels who were pressed up, Li Baiyu smiled bitterly and sighed.

"I can't wait, it seems that your pressure is even greater than mine."

"Your Majesty, the rebels are attacking the city again."

Lu Tao ran towards Li Baiyu with his blade in full armor, his face was full of fighting spirit, and the heavens were beautiful, so that the Praetorian Guards were proudly repaired for four days, and the Praetorian Guards, who were physically and mentally exhausted, regained their fighting spirit.

"Tell the brethren to be on guard, as the days go by, my brothers must be impatient, the rebels' offensive must be fierce, and the ice outside the city is not a moat, and it will not be able to resist for long."

"After holding on for so many days, seeing that King Qin's army is coming, the city has been broken at this time, and all the hard work has been in vain."

"The old minister understands, the old minister has gone to command."

The little cutie rubbed her sleepy big eyes and got out of the city tower, and next to her was a pretty-looking, about seventeen or eighteen-year-old palace maid, who thought it was Li Baiyu who was serving the cute Cuiyun.

Cuiyun looked at the little cutie, looking like she hadn't slept enough, and her pretty face was very anxious.

"Princess Yue'er, let's go down quickly, once the rebels attack the city, it will be dangerous above the city tower."

The little cutie looked at the rebels outside the city angrily, stretched her waist and nodded helplessly: "Okay, Sister Cuiyun, let's go down." ”

"Princess, please."

Cuiyun protected the little cutie with one hand, and gently lifted his heavy cloak with the other, revealing a sword hilt, Cuiyun gently pumped, and a soft sword like a spirit snake was carried by Cuiyun in his hand to protect the little cutie and walked towards the bottom of the city tower.

Li Baiyu heard the movement behind him and turned to look, and saw the two people who walked down the city tower nodding at Cuiyun.

"Protect Yue'er, she has a hair on it, and I ask you."

"The slave obeys."

On the battlefield, Cuiyun didn't care about the difference between being inferior to the little cutie, and gently lifted the cloak to wrap the little cutie in and shrank under the battlements, and the soft sword in his hand was tightly clutched in the jade hand in a defensive posture.

Although the battlements can withstand bows and arrows, there are still occasional falling rocks from trebuchets that happen to fall here.

It is precisely because of this that Li Baiyu deliberately passed on a female master with good kung fu to dress up as a palace maid to protect the safety of the little cutie.

As Li Baiyu said, the little cutie is now the only bond that can maintain the relationship between herself and her brother-in-law Liu Mingzhi.

The city was broken, and it was understandable that the little cutie died at the hands of the rebels, and the current little cutie must not have any problems.

Every time before the end of the city defense, Li Baiyu would recall the words that Li Zheng taught him when he was alive.

In the past few days, Li Baiyu sorted out all the words and summed up one sentence.

If you want to reuse Liu Mingzhi and ensure Liu Mingzhi's loyalty, you must treat his family well.

As long as his family is not harmed, he and Liu Mingzhi can continue the good story between his father and his monarch and ministers.

The safety of his family is the premise of Liu Mingzhi's loyalty to the imperial court.

"Fire!"

With the wave of the command flag of Lu Tao and the four of them, the artillery on the city wall fired a dense cannonball and bombarded the rebels who had already entered the firing range.

Li Baiyu's guess was right, and Li Yunlong and they were also in a hurry now.

Looking at the fierce posture of the rebels charging desperately regardless of artillery fire, one can know that Li Yunlong's brothers have given death orders.

There is no way, Li Baiyu can afford to wait, Li Yunlong, Li Baihong can't afford to wait, wait one more day to face the crisis of King Qin's army.

As long as they attack the city and threaten the Zongren Mansion, the royal family and clan relatives pray for heaven and earth, and sit on the throne naturally, and after King Qin's army arrives, they can only stare dryly.

Unless you want to bear the name of rebellion like yourself and others.

Then the rebellion of the vassal king was completely different from the situation faced by the rebellion of the foreign ministers.

One is to rebel against his own family, as long as Jiangshan is still surnamed Li, the Zongren Mansion will solve this matter.

One is the rebellion of the courtiers, and when the generalissimo of soldiers and horses from all states in the world gathers to respond, the entire Dalong will be completely chaotic.

With Li Yunlong, Li Baihong's brothers' understanding of these old ministers, they will definitely not do such a thing, and the only thing that has changed is Liu Mingzhi.

However, as long as he ascends to the throne, the evidence of the relationship between Liu Mingzhi and Jin Guoxiao's cute father and daughter will be revealed to the world.

It's hard to say what the outcome was at that time.

Li Baiyu's two sons Li Ye were proclaimed, and one of Li Tao's brothers ascended the throne as emperor and succeeded his father to the throne.

It's a pity that the queen's position has not yet been determined, Li Ye and Li Tao brothers only have the title of prince, and they have not been established as the crown prince by Li Baiyu, and it is uncertain whether they can ascend to the throne, and it is even more difficult to say if they want to inherit the throne.

Secondly, the age of the two brothers is too young, if it is based on the interests of the overall situation, the group of old things in the Zongren Mansion will definitely favor Li Baihong, Li Yunlong, the feudal kings who had a good reputation in the past.

After all, in addition to the stigma of rebellion, the means and mental brothers are almost the same as Li Baiyu, and the only difference is the difference in personality.

"General, there is a thick layer of ice under the city wall, siege trucks and trebuchets can't transport it at all, the brothers can't stand steadily with the ladder, and the archers on the city wall are shooting the brothers without fear!"

Lu Gui and Jiangzhou under Li Yunlong looked at the crooked movements of the former army brothers under the city wall, and looked at each other with gloomy faces.

Lu Gui retracted his gaze and sighed: "They poured water on the frozen line of defense given by God, what should I do?" If this continues, the brothers will die in vain. ”

Jiang Zhou slapped his palm fiercely: "There is no way, the prince can't wait, it will snow heavily for three days, clean up the snow for two days, and wait until the army of King Qin will kill us." ”

"Although we are elite, we are still not good compared with the border army, and we must attack the city as soon as possible."

"What do you say, if you continue to attack like this, you will let the brothers die in vain, and if the siege equipment can't go up, you can't let the brothers climb up, right?"

"Order the former saber and shield soldiers to come forward to take cover, guard against the rain of arrows, and the rest of the brothers break the ice."

"The brothers of the rear army of the Chinese army retreated, out of the range of the Janissaries' shells."

"That's the only way, give the order, I'll go and report to the prince."

"Okay, you go and tell the prince about the situation, and I'll supervise the battle here first."

The situation of the rebels was exactly as Lu Tao expected, and in the face of the ice that had been frozen for four days and four nights, the rebels' heavy siege weapons could not be transported at all.

The ladder was light, but it couldn't stop the rebels from slipping on the ice.

All of a sudden, this was the case on all four walls.

The rebels tried to attack but could not attack, and the attacking side became a passive defensive side.

The siege battle was at a stalemate for a short time, and the cutie's plan worked completely.
