At night, Li Renyi sat bored in his mansion, looking at the stars in a daze.

Although he is an inner servant, when he reaches the status of Li Renyi, he also has his own mansion in the inner city outside the forbidden city. Even like his peers in the Great Song Dynasty, Li Renyi also married a wife and concubine and had children. Li Mingxin is only his nominal son, but in fact, he can be regarded as a political force to support him. In the mansion, Li Renyi still has a son in the real sense, although he was not born by himself, but he can also inherit the lineage for him, inherit the incense, and even grace the official title early.

The inner servants of this era, especially the senior inner servants, are different from their counterparts in later generations, they have the same family, have the joys, sorrows and sorrows of ordinary people, and in thought, they also have more ordinary colors.

The result of the battle in Langzhou was unexpected, and Li Foma's trust was lost, and Li Renyi had to think carefully about his future. Even for the sake of this family, he also wants to keep his glory and wealth.

Now that the Song army is approaching the city, according to Li Foma's temperament, if everything goes well in this battle, Thang Long Mansion can survive the crisis without danger, and even the Jiaozhi army on the periphery returns in time to inflict heavy losses on the Song army, then Li Renyi will have a chance to turn around.

Li Foma was born in an imperial family, and his bloodline was extremely complicated. His father is naturally Li Gongyun, the founding monarch of the Li Dynasty, and his biological mother Li Foyin is the daughter of Li Huan and Yang Yun'e, the founding monarchs of the former Li Dynasty. Yang Yun'e is also the descendant of Yang Tingyi, a key figure in the independence of Jiaozhi, and the widow of Ding Buling, the leader who truly realized the unification of Jiaozhi, that is to say, Li Huan not only inherited the country of Ding, but also inherited his woman. Li Foma has the blood of several dynasties and cochin emperors in his body, which can be described as extremely noble.

This kind of origin. In addition, since childhood, I have seen a lot of intrigues for power and profit. Since he was a teenager, he led troops to fight in the south and the north. It is really worthy of the four words Wen Taowu Liu. Li Foma can be light in all kinds of political struggles, introverted, benevolent and benevolent, and can easily pacify internal strife and external enemies.

It is precisely because of this that Li Foma thinks very highly of himself, and he is generous on the outside, and he will not care about the small sections, if he can save the day this time. Li Renyi has a chance to make a comeback. But on the other hand, Livermar has an insight into all kinds of political tricks, and he is never soft on those who really threaten him. His kindness is only a reward for his subordinates, and has nothing to do with his own temperament.

If it weren't for the accident of Xu Ping's world, Li Foma would have been safe, easy and happy, and would have been Li Taizong, who was infinitely praised by later generations.

When Xu Ping came to Yongzhou, the Great Song Dynasty opposite Jiaozhi changed, and Jiaozhi will also change.

Li Renyi looked at the stars in the sky. I secretly prayed in my heart, praying that Song Jun was just coming for nothing. Pray that Cochin will survive this crisis in peace.

"Boom-"

Suddenly, there was an earth-shattering sound outside, and the entire Thang Long Mansion trembled uneasily.

Li Renyi stood up and looked out of the inner city in horror, looking at the fire that was not bright but solemn in the northwest.

The eldest son, Li Mingde, ran out of the house in a panic to find someone familiar with him to inquire about the news.

Li Renyi stood in the courtyard, motionless, his face as white as paper, and his hands and feet were cold.

He is no stranger to this kind of movement, a year ago, with Li Foma's expedition to Guangyuan Prefecture, the Jiaozhi army was tortured by this voice, and came back in disgrace.

Not long ago, on the front line of Langzhou, Li Fengxiao was also sealed in the valley with such a loud noise, and finally took his life.

Now, the voice rang out in Thang Long Mansion.

Li Renyi only felt dizzy for a while, and he didn't even dare to think about what would happen next.

"The walls are falling! This Thang Long Mansion looks like a huge city, but it can't withstand our bombing! ”

Sang Yi jumped to his feet, said goodbye to Xu Ping, and went to command the Song army to enter the city.

Xu Ping stood outside the city, looking at the sparks that flickered and flickered not far away, and the gap in the huge city wall in the firelight, he had an indescribable feeling.

Outside of his plan, he had always felt that this action was very reluctant, but he was just trying it out with luck. Unexpectedly, with such an explosion, the walls of Thang Long Mansion collapsed.

Who built this city wall, it's too powerful to cut corners!

Moreover, Jiaozhi is only equivalent to the land of several states of the Great Song Dynasty, so he dares to build such a large royal city, with 5,000 people in it, and the inner and outer cities are divided, and they can't defend it, so they are simply killing themselves.

The moat was not too wide, and the water flow was gentle, and after a while, the Song army set up a pontoon bridge, and a steady stream of Song troops rushed into the city through the gap in the city wall.

The strength of the Jiaozhi army that lost the protection of the city wall was at an absolute disadvantage, and the overall situation had been decided, Xu Ping ordered Tan Hu to send the Chinese army into the city to maintain order, and prohibit the soldiers from entering the city from burning, killing and looting.

Breaking the outer city does not mean that you have captured Thang Long Mansion, and there is a stronger inner city in front of you. The true essence of Cochin, the noblest families, including the King of Cochin, Li Foma, and the richest merchants, lived in the inner city. If the Song army is not restrained in the outer city and provokes a popular uprising, it will give Jiaozhi salted fish a chance to turn over.

After entering the Shenglong Mansion, he naturally would not return empty-handed, but Xu Ping would not let the soldiers rob it. There will be a more effective way to ask for money, thieves are like combs, soldiers are like grates, and organized is always more efficient than unorganized.

Li Foma stood on the upper floor of the inner city, looking at the outer city at night with a gloomy face. He thought that the outer city might be breached by the Song army, but he didn't expect it to be breached so quickly.

When the Song army crossed the river, Li Fomaga sent several teams of men and horses out to order the peripheral troops to immediately pick up the King of Longfu Qinwang, according to his estimates, ten days later, the army around Thang Long Mansion would gather.

If the Song army could not break through the outer city within ten days, the battle would be considered a victory. Li Foma was not too worried about the situation of the Song army's siege, and he was even faintly excited in his heart, once the commander of the Song army was dizzy, greedy for merit, and was besieged under the city of Thang Long Mansion, he would take back what Langzhou had lost.

However, the outer city of Thang Long Mansion was broken in one day, which caught Li Foma off guard.

The gates of the inner city were wide open, and the general of the Forbidden Army was directing the defenders of the outer city to withdraw to the inner city. There was no point in entangling with the Song army in the outer city, but it would cost you valuable manpower.

The outer city is an earthen city, and the inner city is a mixed brick and stone building, and the inner city is covered with rammed earth, and the degree of fastening is far from being comparable to that of the outer city.

Moreover, after the defenders withdraw, there will be no dead ends in the defense, and the Song army will have no chance to blow up if they want to.

Seeing that the lights were lit up at the gap in the northwest city wall, it was soon as bright as day, and the Song army with torches spread like a long dragon in the outer city, divided into several teams and went straight to the inner city gate. Li Foma's eyes were sharp, and he saw that the soldiers entering the city under the city tower began to sparse, and ordered the soldiers guarding the city to close the city gate.

Before they could enter the gates, the soldiers of Jiaozhi were clamoring outside the city, and the defenders of the city began to fire arrows to drive them away, and Li Foma turned his head coldly and did not look at it. Although he is known for his kindness, some of them are not the kindness of women, and those who should give up must give up decisively.

With the lights lit up in the inner city, Li Foma glanced at Li Renyi's mansion not far from the forbidden city, and his eyes were faintly murderous.

On the night of March 24, the Song army broke through the outer city of Thang Long Mansion and quickly cleared the buildings around the inner city in preparation for an attack on the inner city. (To be continued.) )
