Chapter 123 Siege

Li Chunfeng quickly told the emperor what had happened these days. When the latter heard that the second and third princes had colluded with Murong Jie and the Mingyue Sect to rebel, he was in disbelief. When Li Chunfeng explained

, the prince and an official were escorted by a group of experts to the palace. When he saw that his father had woken up, he was so happy and excited that he suddenly knelt down in front of the emperor.

This official's name was Huang Bingyi, and he was the emperor's most trusted minister. Ever since the emperor ignored the government affairs in the past few days, he felt that something was not right, so under the instruction of the prince, he secretly collected information from the second and third princes.

Evidence of plotting a rebellion. Three days ago, with the help of Li Chunfeng and other experts, he finally collected favorable evidence, a false edict, and several secret letters with the Mingyue Sect and Murong Jie, which recorded their details.

Evidence of collusion.

The prince was almost crying, "Father, you are finally awake. Now Li Chunfeng's men are fighting with the rebels of Mingyue Sect. Moreover, the second and third brothers have begun to assemble their troops to prepare for the attack. They will soon attack the capital.

.”

Then Huang Bingyi handed the imperial edict and the letter to the emperor. The latter struggled to sit up. After reading the letter, he almost fainted again. After he calmed down, he immediately issued an order to the people present. He would

He moved inside and tapped the wall three times. A small hole suddenly opened in the wall. He took out a firework object from it and handed it to Li Chunfeng.

"Prince-in-law, you release these fireworks in the air, and experts will come to help." Then he took out a golden token from the small hole, handed it to Huang Bingyi and explained: "This token can

Mobilize all the guards in the capital to defend against the enemy's attack."

After taking the things, the two left the palace.

The emperor said to the prince in front of him: "Prince, with our current military strength, we cannot withstand the attack of hundreds of thousands of troops. Have you thought of a countermeasure?"

The prince nodded, "As early as three days ago, I asked Li Chunfeng Feijian to send a message to Qi Tianyang and King Mu, asking him to lead the army to Beijing to capture the thieves. They also responded to the letter and have already rushed here. The number of people is about

There are hundreds of thousands of people, and it will take seven days to get to the nearest one."

The emperor sighed, "I really don't know if our defenders can hold on until that time."

The prince said firmly: "Yes!"

The emperor was very curious as to what made the prince so determined? So he asked: "Why are you so sure?"

The prince's eyes became extremely determined, "Because of Li Chunfeng."

The emperor suddenly understood and couldn't help but sigh: "This boy can always play a big role at critical moments. No wonder the prince would choose to join forces with him."

Outside the palace, seeing that the Mingyue Sect was about to lose its support, the thousand people who went to support Wenzhong finally came over, and nearly two thousand Mingyue Sect disciples appeared on the wall, as well as

More than a dozen masters of the Three Realms.

The second elder who was fighting with Wei Mengchen in the air saw this situation and immediately flew to the ground and laughed loudly, "Hahaha, you didn't expect it! In fact, we already knew that you guys wouldn't give up, so we

I'm here to invite you to the urn. No, it should be called catching turtles in the urn. All of you will die here today."

Seeing so many people from the Mingyue Sect, and the disciple Li Chunfeng except Feng Wuya, everyone else was afraid and had plans to escape. Just when the people from the Mingyue Sect were about to take action, Li Chunfeng suddenly jumped out,

He sneered: "It's too early for you to be happy!"

I saw Li Chunfeng release the fireworks in his hand, and four big characters "Enter the palace to escort" suddenly appeared in the air. At first glance, they were written according to the emperor's handwriting. In an instant, many powerful people appeared in Tianyun City.

About three to four thousand people rushed towards the palace.

These masters are all masters that the emperor is responsible for placing in Tianyun City. They usually stay in every corner. Once the emperor has something to do, they will quickly enter the palace to escort him.

The second elder was shocked. He wanted to order everyone in Mingyue Sect to continue the attack, but the leader of the second division helm standing next to him stopped him, "Second elder, now is not the time for a decisive battle. If you hold everyone here, what will you do?"

Explain to the leader."

Although the second elder felt unwilling to do so, he still gritted his teeth and ordered: "Withdraw!"

After the experts who came to support came here, they saw so many people in the palace and thought they were assassins, so they prepared to escort them. Fortunately, the prince arrived in time and explained the matter clearly, and then the matter was calmed down.

Now that these people are here, the prince will naturally make use of them and prepare to let them defend the city, and make a promise to them. Once they defend the capital, those who have outstanding military exploits will not only be promoted to official positions, but also receive large sums of money.

If you cannot keep your money, the consequences can be imagined.

These people are originally the soldiers raised by the emperor. With the promise of the prince, they will only work harder. They are not only interested in money, but also pay more attention to living in a different identity so that they no longer have to live the life of licking blood.

Already.

Originally, the emperor wanted to send people to capture Murong Jie's family, but after Li Chunfeng led the experts to the Prime Minister's Mansion, they found that their family had long been deserted. Murong Jie took everyone in the family and fled to the Second Prince's military camp.

.

The people on Li Chunfeng's side were not in a hurry to go back, but went directly to the surrounding area of ​​the city.

Wen Zhong led 500 people to guard the back of the city, Wei Mengchen led 1,000 people on the left, You Changjing led 1,000 people on the right, and Li Chunfeng led 1,000 people to respond to the enemy on the wall directly in front. Those emperors

The dead soldiers were scattered around the city wall.

According to Li Chunfeng's expectation, the two princes would definitely not withdraw their troops after learning that the emperor had woken up. Anyway, whether to withdraw or not would lead to death. It would be better to fight to the death. Only in this way can they gain a chance of survival and even ascend to the throne.

As Li Chunfeng expected, the second prince had no intention of withdrawing his troops. He had already surrounded the entire Tianyun City without leaving even a single gap. He even said that once the city was broken, all the soldiers guarding the city would be destroyed.

Leave none behind, kill them all.

The second prince's move violated a taboo among military strategists. It is often said in military books that "if you are surrounded, you must be surrounded", so that these soldiers have a way to survive, so that they will not fight to the end, and the people who are besieging the city can more easily capture the city. This is terrible.

Well, these soldiers have no way to retreat, so they can only sink their boats and fight against the Second Prince's army.

At this time, the emperor, wearing a dragon robe, stood on the city wall, looking far away at the second prince.

The emperor shouted loudly to the soldiers below: "Listen, soldiers below, the second prince intends to rebel. Please withdraw your troops as soon as possible. I can forget the past."

After the emperor finished saying this, who knew that the soldiers below were still unmoved. These soldiers were all brought out by the second prince. No one could command them except for his orders, including the emperor.

The second prince was wearing a light yellow armor and riding on a horse with a spear in his hand. Facing His Majesty the Emperor, his face remained unchanged and he pointed his spear forward, "Your Majesty must have been threatened by a villain, so he said this. All the soldiers listen."

Order, follow me into the city and rescue Your Majesty."

Following the second prince's order, more than a dozen catapults instantly threw huge boulders, hitting the city wall and the defenders heavily. After dozens of rounds of attacks, the defenders on the city wall suffered heavy losses. Then two

The soldiers on the prince's side set up ladders and battering rams and rushed over.

The soldiers guarding the city were all looking forward to death. They knew that once the city was breached, only death awaited them. They resisted desperately one by one. With the help of many martial arts heroes, they repelled the waves of enemy attacks and pushed those enemies away.

All the enemies who entered the city wall were killed.

After a day of fierce fighting, the defenders of the city wiped out nearly 20,000 people at the cost of 4,000 people. The battle loss ratio reached an astonishing 1:5. The masters on Li Chunfeng's side also lost nearly 300 people. Although they died,

There were a lot of people, but it was worth it to withstand the Second Prince's attack.

Li Chunfeng stood on the top of the city with a long sword covered in blood. The blood was not his own but the enemy's. He alone killed hundreds of enemies. In this battle, he relied on his superb swordsmanship.

Although Li Chunfeng had completely gained a reputation, he couldn't feel happy at all because he had paid for it with an innocent life.

Li Chunfeng looked down at the city wall. There were piles of corpses there. Those soldiers were just like ordinary people. If it weren't for the selfishness of the second prince, how could so many people die? If it wasn't for the sake of the common people in the world, he would

I really don't want to participate in this war.

In the large tent of the Chinese army, the second prince was yelling at his generals, "You useless trash, so many people can't attack Tianyun City, and you've lost so many soldiers, what's the use of keeping you here?"

.”

One of the generals wearing armor stood up and saluted the second prince, "Your Highness, behind the high walls of the capital city, the soldiers guarding the city are all looking forward to death, and they simply don't want their lives when fighting.

, it makes sense that we can’t capture it.”

Hearing the general's reply, the second prince suddenly became furious and threw the book in his hand, "If you are still reasonable, drag him out and beat him with twenty military sticks."

After hearing the second prince's decision, everyone knelt down to plead for the general. Now the third prince on the side also spoke kind words for him, "For the sake of General Zhao's hard work and merit, I will spare him this time. The most important thing now is

The purpose is to come up with a way to deal with it. If we wait until reinforcements arrive, we really have no chance of winning."

Hearing this, the second prince took the initiative and let the general go for the time being, and then said to everyone: "If you have any countermeasures, please tell me quickly."

Another general stood up and said, "The general has a few suggestions, I don't know if they are feasible."
