Chapter 652: The Military and the Civilian Concentric Liu Renliang Recognizes the Lord (Four Changes)

It can be said that Li Tai has made a bit of a ruin this time. Now there are only more than 50,000 people left in Li Tai's hands. This time, 40,000 people were transferred out, and now there are less than 10,000 people left in Youzhou City.

If there is really any loophole, let the coalition forces of the two countries directly attack Youzhou. I'm afraid it's really hard to say, what the ending will be.

So now in Youzhou City, there is a serious shortage of troops. Even the disciples of the Momen also went up to the city wall one after another to prevent accidents.

Even so, the defenders on the city wall were only fifteen or six thousand. For tens of miles of city walls, these people are indeed a little too few.

Just when Li Tai felt helpless, someone suddenly came to Li Tai. Kneeling on the ground and said to Li Taishili: "Your Royal Highness King Yan, the people of Youzhou City spontaneously formed a city defense army. The number of people has reached more than 100,000, and it is still increasing. ”

"Now that they have all arrived at the city wall, they are helping to carry them to the city wall, rolling wood and thunder stones, and other things to defend the city. Even some people even brought their pots to the city walls. ”

These people did not put pots on the city wall for cooking. Instead, prepare to boil hot water in a pot, or boil oil. When the enemy army attacked the city, it poured down from the city walls.

Li Tai didn't expect that there would be people who spontaneously went to the city to defend the city. And the number of people is as high as more than 100,000. This has rarely happened since ancient times.

So Li Tai hurriedly got up and led the people towards the city wall. The walls of this Youzhou city are divided into four gates and eight sections. The four gates are the four city gates in the south, east and west.

There is also a watchtower at each corner, and the original four sections of the city wall are divided into eight sections. Each section of the wall is about ten miles long, and the total length is about eighty miles. It can be said that it is a big city second only to Chang'an City.

Of course, the original Youzhou City was not so big. It was Li Tai who expanded to the current scale after arriving in Youzhou. Therefore, even if the Khitan and Xi States jointly sent 200,000 troops this time, it would be impossible to besiege the entire Youzhou.

The biggest impact is to block the four gates of Youzhou City. Among these four city gates, the closest to the Khitan and Xi countries are the two city gates in the northeast.

So this time Li Tai came to the East City Gate, when Li Tai arrived at the East City Gate. I saw tens of thousands of people, busy.

As soon as Li Tai arrived at the East City Gate, he was discovered by the sharp-eyed people. So he shouted loudly: "Folks, His Royal Highness King Yan has come down." ”

With this shout, tens of thousands of people put down their work. They all knelt on the ground, looking at the black oppression.

"Folks, please get up, it's not you who should salute today, but this king. Thank you, King. It is the incompetence of this king to defend your homeland for you. I even let you go up to the city to defend yourself. Li Tai said to the people in front of him.

"His Royal Highness King Yan must not be like this, His Royal Highness King Yan has not been to Youzhou before. Although we can also have no worries about food and clothing, we live a life of fear. ”

"I'm afraid that there will be a natural disaster in some year, or the city will be sacked by these foreign races. At that time, we will not be able to pay the heavy taxes, and the only way will be to sell our sons and daughters. ”

"Since His Royal Highness King Yan came to Youzhou, not only have we had the land to cultivate. It also exempted us from taxes. It also allows our children to go to school, all of which was brought to us by His Royal Highness King Yan. ”

"Now these big families who are blessed are frantically colluding with different races in Fanbang. I want to ruin the happy life we just had. Folks, can we agree? An old man with gray hair, with a cane in his hand, said loudly.

The old man's words instantly resonated with the people. shouted loudly: "We swear to die in Youzhou City to live and die, and no one wants to destroy our homeland." ”

Hearing the shouts of the people, a happy smile appeared on Li Tai's face. Li Tai didn't expect that he would have such a status in the hearts of the people.

Even the military generals of Wenchen beside Li Tai had a happy expression on their faces at this time. With these people loving them, what is there for them not to be satisfied?

"Folks, today I, Li Tai, am scheduled to live and die together in this Youzhou City. Even if there is only one soldier left in the battle of my Yan Kingdom, I, Li Tai, will not take half a step back. Li Tai shouted loudly.

"Folks, hurry up. Only now that we are fully prepared, we will not worry about the arrival of the Khitan and Xi countries. ”

"As long as our military and civilians are united, even if he comes with another 200,000 or even 1 million troops, he will not want to shake my Youzhou City." Liu Renliang, who was standing beside Li Tai, shouted loudly to the people.

Looking at the people who began to be busy again, Li Tai directly rolled up his sleeves. Stretched out his hand and began to carry the Rolling Wood Thunder Stone with the people.

Li Tai has done his work, how can these civil and military generals stand idly by. So one by one, they gave up their former official authority and participated in the defense of the city.

At this time, Liu Renliang came to Li Tai's side and said to Li Tai with a smile: "His Royal Highness King Yan, I Liu Renliang have seen it today. What is the meaning of those who win the hearts of the people can win the world? Now the people's hearts are available, and Yan Guo is worry-free. ”

"I don't care if I don't have the world, but the king only cares about the people under the king's rule. If you can't give the people under your rule, a peaceful and prosperous world. Then what kind of face do I, Li Tai, have to stand between heaven and earth. Li Tai said to Liu Renliang with a straight face.

"I have long heard that His Royal Highness King Yan loves the people like a son, and when I saw it today, it was true. Now that I, Liu Renliang, have met such a master, if I don't make a choice, I'm afraid I will hate it for the rest of my life. Liu Renliang said with a laugh.

After Liu Renliang finished speaking, he knelt directly on the ground. He made a great salute to Li Tai, and at the same time said to Li Tai: "My subordinate Liu Renliang is willing to recognize Li Tai, the king of Yan, as the master." In this life, in this life, in this life, swear allegiance to the death. ”

Li Tai hurriedly stretched out his hand and helped Liu Renliang up. Then he laughed and said: "Today, this king has Liu Xiang's help, it is really like Zhou De Lu Wang, Han De Zhang Liang." ”

Liu Renliang didn't expect that he was in Li Tai's mind. It can be compared with Jiang Ziya and Zhang Liang. This can't help but make Liu Renliang even more loyal to Li Tai. I secretly swore in my heart that I must assist Li Tai to achieve a great cause.

"Congratulations, and today you have the help of good ministers. It seems that the future of your kid is limitless. Even if you have the heart to be free, I'm afraid you may not be able to get your wish. At this time, Cheng Yanjin came over and said to Li Tai with a big laugh.

"Uncle Cheng, why did you come to the East City Gate too?" Seeing Cheng Yanjin appear in front of him, Li Tai opened his mouth and asked Cheng Yanjin.

"Now even the people of the city are willing to help you defend the city, regardless of life and death. How can I be indifferent to Cheng biting Jin, Lao Cheng, I transferred the right Wuwei to you. ”

"But you kid have to remember that today you owe me a favor to Lao Cheng. Someday, but I have to pay it back. Cheng Yanjin laughed and said to Li Tai.
