Chapter 954: The Battle of Kaesong
Chapter 959
Sooner or later, it will come to this.
Li Xingya understands this, and Nohara Huo also understands it in his heart.
The key is that the Jiangnan Army does not have the ability to fight the Rong people head-on. In the past battles, Li Xingzai used a lot of intrigues and tricks, and he did a good job in this regard, causing great trouble to the Rong people.
But that's all there is to it, the Rong people can still afford this loss. The Rong army gradually advanced, pulling out the enemy on the periphery of Luofeng City. After that, the siege of Luofeng City was formed.
The Rong people have had a lot of experience in attacking cities, and for them, there are ways to bring down Fengcheng.
It's all about how much it costs.
Li Xingzai gathered a lot of troops in Luofeng City, and he put enough food and grass to set up a battle with the wild plain fire sword and sword.
The two can be said to be from the same school, and they have been in the toad village for a long time. This contest is to see what each of them has learned. The winner of this battle will have a chance to win the one and only chair.
After pulling out the two eyesore existences of Qinglong Village and White Tiger Village, Yeyuan Fire had already cut off the connection between Luofeng City and the periphery, and then gathered forces and officially launched an attack on Luofeng City.
Now, the Rong clan has the absolute initiative, and they can take a good time to come up with various ways to break through Luofeng City.
The four walls were surrounded, and the main attack of the Rong tribe was still at the west gate.
The trebuchets pulled out of their formation, digging nearby rocks for ammunition, almost emptying a hill. On the day of the war, stone projectiles flew sideways, like a rain of stones falling from the sky in the city.
The soldiers defending the city worked together to resist the attack of the Rong tribe desperately. Even though it blocked the first wave of attacks of the Rong people, they paid a terrible price for it.
How can there be a city in the world that cannot be attacked. As long as they are given enough time at all costs, at the cost of human lives, and given enough time, any city will always be breached one day.
In this battle to defend the city, the Jiangnan army behaved heroically. But in the face of this inevitable defeat, it is inevitable that everyone will be panicked.
In the study room of the City Lord's Mansion, Li Xingzai admired a landscape painting of ink on the wall.
In the picture, the fisherman is fishing, and the smoke and rain are coming to the future, which makes people read it with a sense of dust.
On the table, there is a letter just sent by the Rong clan, which can be confirmed by Li Xingya, who is written by Nohara Huo, not because of Nohara Huo's handwriting. He has been with Nohara Fire for a long time and knows him very well. Yeyuan Huo has hardly read any books, and he doesn't know a few big characters, that is, he was counted in the literacy class in Toad Village.
The sentences on the letter are incoherent, full of typos, and it is simply shoddy. But being shoddy often means being sincere. In this letter, Nohara Huo rarely touched his true feelings.
He recalled the experience of getting along with Li Xingya, and at that time, it was not too much for the two to say that they lived and died together.
Although on the fox Nagisa, it is said that the past is written off, but the two words of love are often the most difficult to calculate.
The best friend who used to be fatal, but now he draws his sword to face each other, and even Li Xingzai is a little lost in his heart.
The meaning of the letter is that Nohara Huo is willing to spare Li Xingya's life. He listed three siege strategies, each of which could break the city. At present, Li Xingzai is already bound to lose, so it is better to surrender as soon as possible.
He is willing to carve out a piece of land and make Li Xingzai establish himself as the king, firstly, because he is afraid of the feelings of the year, and secondly, he can also protect the Li family's incense.
Regarding the three strategies he proposed, Li Xingzai thought about it carefully, and did not deny that it was indeed effective.
What a losing situation......
The conditions he proposed can not be described as unfavorable, and the feelings cannot be described as insincere, but they just let Li Xingzai open the door and surrender......
Did the empire lack an emperor who surrendered? In those years, Emperor Ming twice negotiated peace with the Rong people, and the empire's face plummeted. Li Letian and Xiangfu secretly communicated with each other, but in the end, they were slowly set aside. Even Li Xingzai had to compromise.
But it has come to this day, when he left Beijing on a white horse and came to Luofeng City alone. met Qi Jiguang first, and then got help from the Cao Gang. Sweep away the pirates, go north to fight against Rong, get the help of the king of the East China Sea, defeat Li Xing and replace him......
One by one, it is not too much to say that it is bloody, and it is not too much to step on the blade.
Why do you have to work so hard to suffer from these turmoil.
In the quiet room, Li Xingzai pondered for a long time. If you just want to be a prince of peace and do a life of spending all your days and drinking, when there is an easier way, there is no need to come this far.
I always want to do something.
In Chang'an City, the government of officials was mediocre, and corrupt officials were rampant. In Youzhou, seeing the princes separating their territories, they violated Wang Fayang's obedience. At the northwest border pass, seeing that the army was weak, the Rong people slaughtered the people of the empire unscrupulously. Seeing that the people are not living well, the lives are miserable......
I always want to do something.
Until today, he has soldiers and loyal civilian generals to assist him. Although compared with the Rong people, they don't have the upper hand, but they always have the qualifications to wrestle with the Rong people.
The overall situation of heaven and earth, what the final trend is, no one can say. Now an insignificant fall may affect the final outcome.
Li Xingzai is anxious and apprehensive, but I am afraid it will not be easy for him to give up the things he has worked so hard for.
In this way, Nohara Fire is a little naïve in this matter. He took the love he used to take too seriously, and he also took Li Xingya's determination too lightly.
After thinking for a long time, Li Xingya walked out of the study.
In the hall, Qi Jiguang was waiting for his decision to see how to communicate with the Rong clan.
"Your Majesty, the Rong clan has built four high platforms outside the city, once the high platforms are built, I am afraid that our army will have no chance of winning completely. ”
The battle has reached this point, and Qi Jiguang is also worried in his heart. Knowing that it is a certain defeat, how to let the soldiers charge into battle.
Li Xingzai slowly said four words: "The decisive battle of Kaesong." ”
Qi Jiguang was startled, raised his head, and saw Li Xingzai's eyes like coals. He was silent for a moment, then nodded heavily.
Nesting in the city to defend passively is undoubtedly defeated, of course, going out of the city to fight a decisive battle with the Rong tribe may not have much chance of winning.
But at least there is some room for struggle, isn't Li Xingya struggling to get to where he is today.
The Rong people captured countless people and built several high platforms for them outside the city. Even a little higher than the city wall, the soldiers fired arrows on the city wall, which was really unscrupulous.
This time, when the Rong people decided to attack, they suddenly saw the city gate open, and the Jiangnan army lined up and put up a posture with the Rong people under the city.
The first was a white horse, Li Xingzai was a Rong clan, holding a golden spear from the overlord, and a big flag was flying behind him.
At the head of the city, Qi Jiguang sat in command, and ordered the three armies with the banner in his hand.
After seeing this scene, Nohara Fire was also shocked. He didn't expect that his letter would have any effect, but if he could save Li Xingya's life, he was still willing to let the other party live.
It's just that even so, he still underestimated Li Xingya's determination and courage.
