Chapter 462 A lonely city swaying with snow

"Damn God, when will the snow stop?"

In the military camp outside the city of Peking, Li Jinglong cursed loudly. Because of the heavy snow, it had been delayed for several days. If he bit the snow to death, he would forcefully attack the city.

"Report to the general, the spy came to report, and the defenders of Zhengyang Gate ahead suddenly increased several times."

As soon as Li Jinglong finished scolding, he heard the deputy general come in to report.

"It has increased several times? It seems that they have already transferred the troops from the other city gates to Zhengyang Gate. In this way, the defenses of the other city gates will be weak." Li Jinglong laughed and felt that now was the time.

"Haha, Zhu Gaochi, Zhu Gaochi, I heard that you are covered in flesh and you really have no brains. I don't know if you break a city gate, will Peking be broken? Do you think I can only attack Zhengyang Gate? It's simply a whim!" Li Jinglong suddenly stood up and said to the deputy general, "Send the order to let Qu attack Chaoyang Gate, be sure to capture me before dark!"

"Siege the city now?"

The deputy general thought he had heard it wrong. Now that the snow is falling so heavily, how could he capture the city gate?

"Hmph, what do you know? There are only 10,000 defenders in Beiping City. Now at least half of the troops have been transferred to Zhengyang Gate. Where are there any defenders in the remaining gates? Qu Neng now has 50,000 troops in his hands, and he can't even capture Chaoyang Gate after entering, so let him come to see me with his head!"

Li Jinglong touched the stubble, took the helmet on the weapon stand next to him, put it on his head, and murmured, "Follow me to go out and have a look."

It was still windy and snowy outside. Fortunately, the military camp was stationed in a depression. After entering the flat ground, it was probably blown far away by the strong wind.

However, this also increases the workload of soldiers. The snow accumulated in the depression must be cleaned up, otherwise there will be a risk of being flooded by heavy snow.

But Li Jinglong doesn’t care about this. As long as he can capture Peiping, what’s the point of being tired from the soldiers?

When you come to a mountain in front, you can see an isolated city in the wind and snow, that is, Peking, this lonely city that makes Zhu Yunwen a headache, an isolated city that Li Jinglong thought about day and night. As long as he takes down this lonely city, he will be famous for his eternal reputation, and it is not impossible to be named a king of a different surname.

Through the dense snow curtains, Li Jinglong could see the city tower in front of him. It was indeed crowded, and the number of people guarding the city increased several times.

"Hmph, I will tear down the east wall and repair the west wall, but I won't attack Dongzhimen."

Li Jinglong smiled, but the laughter was overwhelmed by the wind.

At this time, Zhu Gaochi looked at the group of people holding kitchen knives and hoes in his hands. He never expected that at this time, these people would come to help him defend the city in the wind and snow. Those who could not use weapons would deliver food to the soldiers guarding the city. Although they were not as good as the delicacies of the mountains, the soldiers felt warm in their hearts to be able to eat this kind of hot meal on heavy snow.

Especially those soldiers who surrendered later. They had never been treated like this before.

"Mom! Why are you here?"

Zhu Gaochi suddenly saw the figure in the wind and snow, which was Xu Miaoyin wearing armor.

"I want to give the people courage. I must persevere until your father comes back, and Peking cannot be lost!" Xu Miaoyin climbed up the city wall. She was gasping for a moment, and the cold air entered her mouth and immediately shivered.

"Mom. I'm here to bear it, so there's no problem. You'd better go back to the palace to rest." Zhu Gaochi said loudly, because the voice was low, the wind would be overwhelmed.

"Yes, Princess! Don't worry, we will definitely defend Beiping. Even if we use our lives to fill it, we will defend Beiping for His Highness Yan, and we will not let the enemy step into Beiping City!"

A young man holding a kitchen knife said loudly.

"Okay! OK! With you, I will feel at ease." Xu Miaoyin laughed loudly, letting Green Screen take off the armor on her body, and then handed it to the young man. "I don't know your name, but I know you are for Peking. This armor is the armor worn by the King of Yan when he went to Mongolia. Now I will give it to you. You must make good use of it."

"Also, this sword was also the sword of King Yan back then. I hope you can use it to kill the enemy and guard Beiping!"

Then Xu Miaoyin took the sword around her waist and handed it to the young man.

The young man immediately burst into tears when he saw the princess take off the armor, and it was the armor of King Yan, which was the supreme glory.

After taking the armor and sword, the young man knelt on the ground and said loudly, "Don't worry, Princess! Caomin will definitely fight for the King of Yan until his last breath, and will never let the enemy step into the city of Peiping!"

Zhu Gaochi looked at the young man in surprise. He admired his mother's trick. In just one day, all the people in Peking were mobilized, which was equivalent to increasing the defenders of Peking several times. Now there is a great hope of defending Peking.

"Ahem."

After taking off his armor, Xu Miaoyin felt cold in her body and immediately started coughing.

"Mom! Go back and rest quickly, leave it to me!"

Zhu Gaochi quickly took off his clothes and put them on his mother, and asked the green screen to take them back to the Yan Prince's Mansion.

Looking at Xu Miaoyin's back as she left, Zhu Gaochi's eyes showed resilience. His mother was sick and could be so tenacious. As Zhu Di's eldest son, what reason is he not strong?

"Soldiers! The villagers! The court wants to capture my father! The king of Yan wants to capture your decades of hard work to waste our efforts! We absolutely cannot bear it! Now the imperial army wants to stave off Peking, can you agree?" Zhu Gaochi shouted loudly, his fat body and thin clothes were so conspicuous in the heavy wind and snow.

"cannot!"

"For the princess!"

"For the King of Yan!"

"For the prince!"

"Defend Peiping!"

...

...

Various slogans began to ring on the city walls.

A person's voice was very small and completely covered by the wind.

However, the voices of thousands of people, together, have already spread across the wind, and have been transmitted to the city of Beiping, to the other eight gates, outside the city of Beiping, and to Li Jinglong's ears.

"Hmph, you still have to struggle dyingly. It's just an isolated city. When I break the city, you still dare to shout!"

Li Jinglong heard the shouts on the top of Zhengyangmen City and said disdainfully, then asked the deputy general, "Is Qu Neng's army in place?"

"Return to the general, Qu Neng has led 50,000 troops to Dongzhimen. He can take down Dongzhimen just by waiting for the general's order!" The deputy general answered with certainty, because in terms of the current form, Beiping City has already placed most of its defensive forces at Zhengyang Gate. Dongzhimen must have empty defense. Qu Neng is able to fight with the advantage and lead 50,000 troops. He can't attack Dongzhimen after entering, that is, God is helping Peiping.

"Now there are four hours left before dark. You can send an order yourself, either to enter the Dongzhi Gate before dark, or to let Qu Nengtianhei come to see me with his head." Li Jinglong said loudly.

The deputy general's neck chilled when he heard this. He knew that although this general was not a material for a big battle, he was not vague when he killed someone.

So he hurried to send an order, hoping that heavy snow would be less in a while.

A moment later, a roar sounded from the east of Beiping City, covering the sound of wind and snow, all of which were shouting and beating and killing.

"My commander, the enemy is about to attack."

On the wall of Dongzhimen, a deputy general said to Gao Ren anxiously that he knew nothing about Gao Ren, but that he was the commander appointed by the princess himself, and he would guard Dongzhimen.

"Don't panic. It's snowing heavily now, the ground is slippery, it's easy to defend but difficult to attack. It's not that easy for them to capture Dongzhimen."

Gao Ren had been in the army for more than ten years, following Zhang Fu in the south and north, and also followed Zhang Fu with hundreds of people to chase the Mongolian army of ten thousand people. He had never seen any big scenes. Now there are more than a thousand soldiers guarding the city, and countless people come to reinforce. Even if the enemy has a total of 50,000, so what? If the time, place and people are in harmony, he can't defend Dongzhimen.

But the deputy general was obviously a little worried. The 50,000 troops looked a little shocking. There were heads everywhere outside Dongzhimen, densely packed, appearing faintly among the snowflakes, looking even more terrifying.

"Let the archer prepare and prepare the hot turbulent oil! Follow my order and then shoot the arrow!" Gao Ren gave the order in an orderly manner. The deputy general was not worried at all when he saw Gao Ren. The panic in his heart was a little more stable, so he went down to pass the order.

"Young Master, young master, since you have foresaw today's big events for a long time, why don't you leave some tricks? Just a single piece of calligraphy can't save Peiping at all."

After the deputy general left, Gao Rencai looked at the army in the wind and snow and murmured.

The sharp, Qu Neng's army was approaching. The order he received was to attack Dongzhimen before dark, and at any cost.

After hearing the news from Deputy General Li Jinglong, more than half of the defenders of Dongzhimen had been transferred to Zhengyangmen. Now it was empty, so Qu Neng was not very worried. He had a total of 50,000 troops, and even if he used people to pile up, he had to pile up on the city wall.

"Send the order! The whole army attacks!"

Qu Neng roared and immediately heard a long horn, which was the horn of the attack!

In fact, Qu Neng didn't want to attack on the snow anymore, but the coach had the order and he had to refuse to follow, so he had to pay a little more.

As the horn of charge sounded, the war drums began to pound, and Gao Ren on Dongzhimen heard waves of rushing sounds.

Seeing a soldier starting to charge from a distance, Gao Ren's face was expressionless.

"Two hundred steps! Eight ox crossbow! Two rounds of volleys! Let it go!"

With Gao Ren's order, the lonely city in Peking also began to struggle in the troubled times. (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, novels are better, updated and faster!
