Chapter 235 Siege! Xia Qingwu, who is tearing her skin apart!
Xia Qingwu almost shouted loudly! As she spoke, she had already drawn her sword!
"All armies listen to the order! Divide into four groups and encircle Shiye City! No one is allowed to escape!"
"Lin Yiqiu! I want you and your Imperial Army to die in this Shiye City!"
Wow!
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a sudden roar from the soldiers below!
Then a group of soldiers divided into four groups in an orderly manner and surrounded Shiye City.
But this was completely unexpected to the Imperial Guards at Chengmenlou Mountain.
Good guy, the Northern Qi army didn't even attack the city when they came. After all, this princess is one of her own family members, so she actually wants to attack their imperial army?
Even if Governor Lin is allowed to enter, it is impossible for him to lead his troops to attack his own city!
In an instant, all the troops realized the seriousness of the matter.
By now, Lin Yiqiu had completely confirmed Xia Qingwu's conspiracy to rebel!
"Princess! It seems that the BAIC army was also deployed by you, right?"
"You are hooking up with people from Beiqi!"
Standing on the city gate tower, Lin Yiqiu asked coldly.
Below, Xia Qingwu laughed wildly after listening to it.
Now that she has lost her face, there is no need for her to pretend anymore.
Even if Lin Yiqiu knew it, he would die soon anyway, so what could he do?
She smiled evilly and said: "That's right! Marshal Zhao Yuanhui of the Northern Qi Army came to this Shiye City just under my order!"
"His army just gave me an excuse to send troops!"
"Without him, what reason would I have for bringing so many soldiers to attack Shiye?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the soldiers around him were already roaring like a tsunami, and the murderous intent was like a rolling wave! It was rolling in!
"As expected, this guy really wants to rebel!"
Lin Yiqiu's expression was even more grim.
"Army, listen to the order! Guard the city gate! We must not let them break through the city gate!"
"The eldest princess has united with the Northern Qi Dynasty! Her intention to rebel is obvious! If Shiye City falls! The capital will be wide open! Your Majesty will also be threatened at all times!"
After shouting the order, all the forbidden troops were infected by the dignified aura.
They were originally the imperial army that guarded the imperial city. At this moment, facing the eldest princess's confession of rebellion, it was of course impossible for her to succeed!
As Lin Yiqiu said, the geographical location of Stone Industry City is so important!
If the eldest princess really takes over, I am afraid that this Stone Industry City will become the biggest threat to the capital!
"Hold the city gate! Kill!"
"Kill! Guard the city gate! Guard it!"
One after another, monstrous shouts continued to sound, and at this time, the imperial army had also erupted with extremely terrifying murderous intent!
Outside the city gate, there are beacon fires and arrows raining down!
But inside the city gate, the imperial troops did not retreat at all! Facing the soldiers who tried to attack the city, they rolled the rocks directly! All the hot oil was poured down!
In addition, most of the original fortifications of Shiye City have been built, so even if the eldest princess Xia Qingwu has 50,000 soldiers and horses, it is impossible to capture Shiye City quickly!
No matter what time it is, sieging a city is extremely difficult.
Food, wages, supplies, and various logistical guarantees allow the siege soldiers to defend and fight without any worries.
Although the eldest princess Xia Qingwu has 50,000 soldiers and horses, it is nearly six times that of the forbidden army in the city!
But among the 50,000 soldiers and horses, 10,000 are responsible for logistics, which is almost impossible to fight.
There are also many people who are light cavalry and are of almost no use when attacking a city.
Therefore, the actual number of people attacking the city was less than 30,000.
And thanks to the geographical location of Shiye City, there are no logistical worries.
Therefore, for Lin Yiqiu, it is still the same sentence, just hold on!
The longer it is delayed, the worse it will be for the princess!
Lin Yiqiu was also merciless in the face of those enemies who were frantically climbing up the tower from the ladder.
He and Cang Hong, together with their elite men, carried out the most brutal strangulation of these enemy troops!
He, a master-level expert, may not be able to defeat a thousand people, or may not be able to defeat ten thousand people.
However, he was able to handle these hundreds of people climbing the city with ease.
Therefore, for a while, the eldest princess Xia Qingwu really couldn't break the city quickly!
Even the soldiers who were climbing the ladder were killed in hundreds!
The siege situation suddenly froze!
"Damn it, this dead eunuch! I didn't expect him to be quite capable!"
Whether it was the deployment of troops or the guarding of the city gate, Lin Yiqiu did a pretty good job!
In their army, he is probably a rare talent.
Of course, Xia Qingwu also understood what Lin Yiqiu was thinking.
If Shiye City can really delay it, it will be extremely detrimental to her.
At this time, the next general also reported: "General! Although we have a large number of people, it will not be easy to capture Shiye City!"
"If we fail to capture it within seven days, then our logistics supply will have a big problem!"
They came out this time with only ten days of supplies in total.
Because they all thought they could easily enter Shiye City, bringing too many supplies would be a burden.
But now that the situation has changed, Lin Yiqiu is guarding the city gate. If they forcefully attack, they may injure ten thousand enemies and eight thousand themselves!
Xia Qingwu was thinking about this problem. After listening, she spoke coldly.
"Bring me the map around Shiye City."
She stretched out her hand suddenly.
Not long after, the general below handed him the map.
Xia Qingwu watched for a moment, thought for a moment, and immediately ordered: "Lead a part of the army to search all the small rural counties around Shiye City!"
"Use their materials and food to serve as supplies for my army!"
"General, do the people want it?"
The general asked.
Xia Qingwu only gave him a cold look.
"What do you think?"
"Yes, I understand!"
After hearing this, the general immediately led an army of several thousand people and rushed towards several surrounding villages and counties according to the map!
As for the life and death of the people, the eldest princess has already given the order anyway, so naturally no one will be left alive!
At this time, Lin Yiqiu, who was guarding the tower, naturally saw what was happening below!
"It's strange, they separated some people and left. What are they doing?"
Cang Hong looked puzzled.
The more critical the situation is, the less likely it is that the soldiers attacking the city should leave. This makes no sense.
But Lin Yiqiu thought very quickly, and after a while, his expression changed drastically!
"Oops! This princess! He wants to attack the people around Shiye City!"
"What?"
Cang Hong was also a little confused!
Lin Yiqiu frowned and continued: "It seems that in order to supplement his own logistics, he is planning to snatch food from the surrounding villages and counties!"
"This big princess! She's even less human than me!"
"Then what should we do? Doesn't it mean that the people are in danger?"
Cang Hong also became very nervous.
Lin Yiqiu was struggling to support himself in Shiye City at the moment, so there was no other way.
And there is a more important point, Tang Zhaoyi and Gu Jinglan are still in Yong'an County! This chapter has been completed!
