The next morning, the long cloth that had just been coated with tinder oil was transported to the city wall of Cangzhou. The scout came to report that the Goguryeo camp ahead was gathering teams.
It seems to have the intention to attack the city.
Li Jing was awakened by Xu Shiji just after he finished his work.
After rubbing his sleepy eyes, Li Jing felt a little tired at this moment.
"Duke Wei, Yuan Gai Suwen seems to be preparing to attack the city!" Xu Shiji and Li Jing said.
Yesterday, Li Jing told him that the Goguryeo army was probably going to attack the city in the past two days, and Xu Shiji was a little unbelievable before.
But I didn't expect that there would be some movement today.
The news of Qin Qiong's death in a fierce battle spread throughout the army. The soldiers lamented Qin Qiong's heroic spirit, and were now twisting, waiting to fight the Goguryeo army to fight for life and death.
It would be great for Yuan Gaisuwen, so he would lead his troops to attack at this time.
It seems that it's really impatient.
"Assiege?" Li Jing smiled and nodded, "Okay, I'm afraid he won't come."
"Go to the city tower."
Li Jing put on a piece of clothing and ran straight towards the city tower. Hongfunu had just brought a basin of hot water to wash Li Jing.
This man had already disappeared.
When the two arrived at the city tower, all the soldiers on the city tower were on guard.
Several tall trenchers appeared on the city tower.
The soldiers were a little strange.
This catapult is generally used for siege, so that the attack range can be concentrated. Even if many enemies cannot be killed, it can at least bombard the city wall.
It's not a waste either.
But can a castle cart be placed on the city tower and kill the enemy troops in the city by stone?
The result of this kind of battle may be better than throwing stones directly from the city wall.
But this was Li Jing's order. Although everyone was surprised, they did not dare to act without following the order.
"Donald Wei, look, the momentum on the opposite side is a bit huge, it seems that it is not just a test."
"Even the Eight Cow Crossbow was pulled out!" Xu Shiji pointed to the Goguryeo military formation slowly coming toward this side and said to Li Jing.
Looking at the huge Eight-Nuo Crossbow in front of him, Li Jing frowned.
The Eight Niu Crossbow was originally a war weapon provided by Zhao Chen to the Tang army, but it was because of Hou Junji's defection.
But now it has become a weapon to find the lives of their Tang soldiers.
"Hou Junji deserves to die." Li Jing said hatefully.
The Eight Niu Crossbow is extremely powerful. If it is shot, no one will survive.
"It's a pity that Chang'an and the outside world are all isolated, and Zhao Chen has returned to Chang'an."
"Otherwise let him get out the sky-bombing cannon and kill the beasts in front of him." Xu Shiji sighed.
These days, because he has been worried about the emperor's situation, when he saw Zhao Chen, he really forgot that Zhao Chen had the ability to make the Sky Cannon.
Now I regret it even when I think about it.
If there is a Sky Cannon, aren’t these people on the other side all mobs who can hold the meat of mermaids?
Li Jing smiled.
Fortunately, Zhao Chen and the emperor did not release the technology of the Sky Cannon before.
Otherwise, if Hou Junji got it, they might have been blown up to the sky long ago.
Even if you don't use some things, you can't get them.
"Yun Gassovian probably wanted to defeat us at one time, notify the soldiers to kill one enemy and give a bounty of 10,000."
"Kill the lieutenant above the opposite side and get a reward of 100,000." Li Jing and the messenger behind him said.
"Yes." The messenger moved when he heard the sound.
Such a high reward is the first time.
Even Xu Shiji was surprised at this moment.
Now they can't even go back to Chang'an, and even raising military funds is a problem.
Not to mention these so-called rewards.
If the soldiers can't get the money at that time, it will be a big deal.
"Duke Wei, this reward is too high, we can't afford that much money." Xu Shiji and Li Jing reminded.
At this moment, Li Jing had sent someone to spread the order, and the soldiers had already known the news.
Looking at the cheerful and fighting spirited soldiers in the distance, Xu Shiji felt a headache.
"We don't have to take this money." Li Jing said with a smile.
"Don't we need to take it?" Xu Shiji was puzzled.
If they don’t have to pay for this money, someone will have to pay for it.
But where did such suckers give them money like this?
"Yes, Zhao Chen told me that if you kill one Goguryeo soldier, you will be rewarded with tens of gold, and if you kill a Goguryeo centurion or above, you will be rewarded with tens of thousands of gold."
"If someone can capture Huizhen alive, he can be granted the county man."
"If anyone can kill Yuan Gaisuwen, he will be conferred the county duke." Li Jing said with a smile to Xu Shiji.
Xu Shiji was slightly stunned.
At first he thought it was Li Jing’s own idea, so he thought it was not appropriate.
But if Zhao Chen said this, the situation would be different again.
In the past two years, God knows how much money the industries under Zhao Chen have made.
If he remembered correctly, if he went to Tubo to build roads, the treasury would ow Zhao Chen countless money.
For Zhao Chen, these rewards that can be rewarded for killing enemies are really just a drop in the bucket.
However, Xu Shiji felt that it was a bit inappropriate to the title of title mentioned later.
After all, although the emperor admitted Zhao Chen's identity, there was no public order. Now, it is not a contempt for the emperor's authority to say that such titles are given.
Of course, the emperor has never had any authority in front of Zhao Chen.
But you have to act like this no matter what, right?
"Don't you understand what Zhao Chen said implicitly?" Li Jing saw that Xu Shiji didn't say anything, knowing what he was thinking, so he asked with a smile.
Xu Shiji looked at Li Jing, remained silent for a moment, and then asked with some uncertainty: "Zhao Chen will not be the one who took the position of crown prince when he goes back this time!"
...
The war came very quickly, and the first ray of sunlight shone on the city wall in the early morning.
Yuan Gaisuwen's army appeared a hundred feet away from the north gate of Cangzhou City.
Huizhen led the army, and her face was full of coldness and sternness at this moment.
Since killing Qin Qiong, a famous Tang general, Huizhen has been a little proud.
Today's attack on Cangzhou City was also a task he snatched.
The other generals dared not fight with him.
Today, Huizhen led the army to fight to the death with the Tang army in Cangzhou City.
If he could capture Xu Shiji of the Tang Dynasty alive, or he could hold Li Shimin who was already dying.
Then no one can compete with Huizhen's position under Yuen Gasuwen.
"General, the siege weapons are ready, and you can siege the city at any time." A general and Huizhen reported.
Huizhen nodded, but was not in a hurry to order the siege.
Instead, he rode alone to stand outside the range of the Tang Dynasty archers.
"Commander of the Tang Army, I am Huizhen, come and talk to me quickly." Huizhen held her long sword on the ground and shouted loudly.
When he heard that Hui Zhen was in front of the city wall, the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty aimed at him one after another.
But no one shot the arrow.
Everyone knew very well that at such a long distance, it was really impossible to hit Hui.
"Why, no one came out to speak?"
"It seems that the general killed Qin Qiong, which scared you so much that he didn't even dare to say anything."
"Since that's the case, why don't you go out of the city and kowtow to greet me!" Huizhen shouted coldly, and her voice reached the city wall.
The soldiers of the Tang Dynasty changed their qualities.
Someone couldn't help but let go of the arrow in his hand, and the arrow shot out.
But it fell softly ten feet in front of Huizhen.
"Why, you hurt you, want to hurt someone with a hidden arrow?"
