My wife is the Daxia Empress

Chapter 40 Siege
Just when Lu Yu was wavering, a voice came from outside the big tent.

"What's the matter?"

Lu Yu frowned.

"Your Majesty, there is a person from outside the camp who claims to be a citizen of Suining, and has a good plan to help you defeat the enemy!"

A soldier came in and half knelt on the ground to report.

A gleam flashed in Lu Yu's eyes, he exchanged glances with Wang Meng and the others, and immediately said, "Let him in quickly."

Soon, a man dressed in rough clothes came in, and when he saw Lu Yu, he bowed his head and bowed.

"Get up, don't need so many etiquette."

The people said in unison, glanced at Lu Yu slightly, and their hearts were shocked.

How young!

"You said you have a good plan to defeat the enemy?"

Lu Yu propped his chin, and there was hope in his eyes.

"Yes, that Ji Zhen was extremely cruel. He detained my relatives and confiscated all our rations. Countless people died of starvation in the city. Some people even started eating human flesh to satisfy our hunger. We can't live anymore. We just wait With the arrival of Master Wang."

The man had tears in his eyes, and every word he said hit the hearts of everyone present.

Everyone has a heavy complexion and clenched their teeth.

"What is your solution?"

"There is a secret passage in the city that can lead to the outside of the city. I came out of this secret passage, but this secret passage is very narrow, only one person wide."

"Are you telling the truth?"

Lu Yu was very excited in an instant. If there is such a secret passage, even if it is narrow, but if he can send a surprise army to capture the city gate, then Suining will be settled!
"Yes, in the past there were many horse bandits around Suining, and they would often come to rob, so basically every family would dig secret passages. These secret passages were their own escape methods, so no one except my family knew where they were. Later, when the first emperor wiped out the horse bandits, these passages were no longer useful and were gradually blocked, but now there is still a secret passage!"

There is a brilliant light in everyone's eyes.

This secret path must belong to their family.

Qin Chu and Wang Meng looked at each other, then nodded.

"Which of you is willing to open the city gate?"

"The end will be willing to go!"

Everyone shouted in unison, and the momentum shook the sky.

"My lord, leave it to me. This Ji Zhen escaped once in my hands, and I will never let him escape again!"

Xue Rengui has a strong fighting spirit and a decisive attitude.

Lu Yu was silent for a moment, then said: "Okay, I'll leave it to you."

As the sky was getting dark, Ji Zhen dragged his body to inspect the city wall. When the people saw Ji Zhen's appearance, they all widened their eyes and their pupils protruded.

I wish I could sleep on my skin and eat my flesh!
Seeing this, Ji Zhen just smiled coldly.

Hate it, as long as he can win, he will completely ignore it.

"How's it going?"

"My lord, the Xia army has been camping outside for almost two days, but there is no sign of attacking the city."

"That's natural. If Lu Yu attacks the city, even if he can capture the city, he will be reviled by thousands of people. When the time comes, the people will renounce, and Great Xia won't last long."

Ji Zhen smiled proudly.

As long as Lu Yu didn't dare to attack the city, it would be fine. In this way, Lu Yu should retreat after a few days of siege.

"Go and guard the gates of the various cities to prevent them from attacking at night!"

"Several teams of soldiers and horses are patrolling alternately at the city gates, and guard posts are kept on the city walls at all times. As long as Lu Yu approaches, he will be spotted immediately."

"That's good." Ji Zhen let out a long sigh of relief, this should be the best news he has heard in the past few days.

At this moment, countless flames ignited outside the city, and the light was extremely dazzling.

All the people were nervous, staring fixedly at the outside of the city.

But the flames that looked like long dragons stopped hundreds of feet away from the city, and they had no intention of moving forward.

Ji Zhen frowned tightly, not daring to relax for a moment.

The strings of everyone on the city wall are tense.

However, after waiting for a long time, even when the bunches of torches started to go out, there was still no movement outside the city.

Instead, they were tense and exhausted.

"What are you trying to do?"

Ji Zhen condensed his voice, and then he told He Mu: "Send a word, if they don't evacuate, they will kill one person every ten breaths, this king will do what they say!"

He Mu's expression froze, and he hurriedly sent a message.

However, there was still no movement outside the city, as if nothing had been heard.

Ji Zhen was furious immediately, and shouted, "Kill me!"

Just when He Mu was about to make a move, a familiar voice suddenly sounded, which surprised him and Ji Zhen.

"kill!"

Xue Rengui's roar broke the original tranquility.

Ji Zhen's pupils suddenly dilated, and he hurriedly looked out of the city, searching around.

He was so familiar with this voice that it was almost his nightmare.

At that time, Xue Rengui chased him down for a whole night!
"My lord, that voice doesn't seem to be outside the city, but inside the city!"

He Mu's voice trembled, and his expression seemed to have seen a ghost.

Obviously they have been so strictly guarded, why did Xue Rengui still appear in the city? Could it be that Lu Yu really has God to help?

Ji Zhen's face was gloomy, and he shouted angrily: "Follow me to have a look!"

If the city is breached, even threatening the common people is useless.

Although Lu Yu was concerned about the safety of the people, it was difficult to take care of everyone in the end, and sacrifices were inevitable. Lu Yu could only find ways to reduce casualties.

in the city.

Xue Rengui's figure was like a ghost, Fang Tian's painted halberd suddenly appeared, and Xia Jun, who appeared from nowhere, appeared in front of the city gate.

Sweeping with the halberd, the rebels defending the city were wiped out in an instant.

"Quickly open the city gate!"

Xue Rengui guarded the gate of the city and suppressed it all by himself, but all the rebel soldiers were afraid to go forward.

squeak~
The heavy city gate was pushed open a gap, and at that moment, the sound of countless horseshoes suddenly sounded outside the city, and the ground shook.

Iron cavalry rushed towards Suining City at high speed.

"What are you all doing blankly? Let the arrows go, let the arrows go!"

The surrounding rebels held their bows and arrows, and the rain of arrows fell in an instant.

Xue Rengui looked at it defiantly, Fang Tian's painted halberd kept flying in the air, and a sharp arrow snapped off.

"Give it all to me! If you let them break through the city, everyone will die!"

With an order, all the rebels rushed to kill them as if they were desperate.

Rebelling against the imperial court will not only kill them, but may even implicate their own family members!

Thinking of this, all the people came with red eyes and came fearlessly.

"kill!"

Xue Rengui let out a low shout, and swung the halberd left and right among the crowd. Scarlet blood stained the halberd, and the tip of the halberd kept dripping with blood.

"Open the city gate!" Xue Rengui roared again.

Everyone in the Great Xia gritted their teeth, the heavy door was constantly being pushed open by the joint efforts of everyone, and the gap widened!
