The Chronicles of Longevity on Liaozhai Road

Li Ying looked at the shining sword on her neck, and finally lowered her head helplessly, admitting it.

The veins in Shouming's hand holding the sword were already exposed. He wanted to stab the sword several times, but finally stopped.

Finally, Shouming threw the sword in his hand on the ground decadently, and staggered back to his seat.

This time, he has completely lost confidence in the upcoming war.

Because no matter how many soldiers he recruits, if there is no food to feed these people, he may not only not be able to defend the city for himself in the end, but even these people will become the most unstable factor.

But Li Ying was still loyal. Seeing that Shouming's face was gray and white, he hurriedly stepped forward and whispered in his ear.

"Commander, although the food in the poverty relief warehouse and the poverty relief warehouse are gone, the food has not left the capital. As long as you make up your mind, Commander, there is still room for recovery."

Shouming's eyes lit up as if he understood something.

Now the grain in the capital is rising three times a day, where does the grain behind these grain stations come from?

Seeing Shouming's eyes brighten, Li Ying knew that he had figured it out.

"Marshal, but behind these people are the big bosses of the imperial court, and they can affect the whole body. Do you want to report to the emperor and make a decision?"

Shouming thought for a moment, if he reported this matter to Emperor Shunde, then Emperor Shunde would be concerned about the stability of the capital and would not dare to arrest people wantonly.

The final result is a symbolic penalty of some food, and finally nothing happens.

Just don't do one thing and keep going, and do one by yourself first and then play.

After thinking of this, Shouming raised his head, with a fierce light in his eyes.

"Since Grandpa Huang ordered me to take charge of the defense of the capital, it is my duty to raise food and grass, so there is no need to bother his old man with this matter."

After saying this, Shouming stood up and said to Li Ying below.

"You took all the grain depots in the capital with you, and copied all the grain depots in the capital. Anyone who stands in the way will be killed without mercy."

After listening to Shouming's order, Li Ying felt relieved, and Shouming forgave himself this time.

Therefore, now he does not dare to disobey Shouming's order.

"The final general will obey the command of the commander-in-chief."

After saying this, he hastily added another sentence.

"If you don't get the food, you will come to see me at the end."

After Li Ying finished speaking, she turned around and left the platform, and disappeared into the teaching field.

Chapter 644

The side of the imperial court was actively preparing for the battle, and Yang Heng's side was not idle either.

During the daytime when the siege failed, Yang Heng reflected on his strategy in the big tent.

You must know that this capital city was built by the imperial court for hundreds of years of continuous reinforcement. It is almost impossible to forcibly break through this city with military force.

Therefore, in order to break through the capital, in addition to one's own Taoism, one must also cooperate with the inside and the outside in order to be able to enter the city smoothly.

However, in the capital, Yang Heng does not have much strength.

But Yang Heng thought of a few people as soon as he turned his mind.

These people were none other than Yang Heng's apprentices, and their families were all dignitaries in the Great Zhou court.

If these people can contribute, they should be able to deceive a city gate and let them enter the city smoothly.

After thinking of this, Yang Heng hurriedly ordered his own soldiers to send a few apprentices to see him.

When the guards heard that it was Yang Heng's call, they didn't dare to neglect, and soon came to the main tent of the Chinese army.

After entering the big tent, the precept guards quickly knelt down to salute Yang Heng.

This time Yang Heng stood up very attentively and helped these apprentices up one by one.

They were a little flattered by keeping the precepts.

In the past, Yang Heng paid great attention to his status as a master, so he didn't talk about those who kept the precepts, but what happened today?Master, is your brain burnt out?

But even though they thought so, they did not dare to show their faces, they all stood there respectfully waiting for Yang Heng's order.

Yang Heng stood on the upper hand and said with a smile: "Now the capital has been besieged by us, but the capital is high and the walls are thick. If we attack the city with all our strength, I'm afraid we will suffer heavy losses."

After saying this, Yang Heng stopped and glanced at a few apprentices with his eyes.

After listening to Yang Heng's words, Shou Precepts and the others pondered in their hearts, what exactly does Master mean by this?

Among these people, the precepts are the most clever, and he understood the master's idea as soon as he turned his mind.

It seems that the master wants to let people like himself contact their family members in the capital, and contribute to breaking the capital.

However, this is also in line with the heart of the guard.

Because as Yang Heng's strength grew, and the scope of the Great Zhou court's control became smaller and smaller, almost only the capital was the city.

By now, anyone with a discerning eye can see that the Great Zhou Dynasty has reached the point where the sun has set, and if nothing happens, Yang Heng should be able to unify the world.

In this case, although I and others are under Yang Heng's command and can be regarded as Yang Heng's apprentices, to be honest, they didn't make any contribution.

If they wait until the new dynasty begins to reward the world, they probably won't get any big benefits.

But now is an opportunity, Yang Heng is trapped under the capital wall, if his family can do their best to open the city gate for Yang Heng, it will be regarded as a great contribution, and when they reward the world in the future, they People can also rely on this credit to seal the title.

After thinking of this, Shou Jie stood up first, stepped forward and cupped his hands and said: "Master, my family still has some energy in the capital, why don't you let me sneak into the capital and discuss it with my father at home, and open the city for the master at that time." door to reduce casualties of soldiers."

Yang Heng was overjoyed when he heard that, this precept was really clever, and he said everything he was thinking.

"Okay, since you have this ambition, I can't stop you from making meritorious deeds. In this way, if this thing really happens, the prince's reward will definitely be indispensable in the future."

Obtaining Yang Heng's promise, the vigilance blossomed in joy.

In the family, I am the closest to the master. In the future, when the rewards come, the master will not distribute them to those in the family. It must be rewarding myself.

As soon as he thought of becoming a duke or marquis in the future, keeping the precepts put all the dangers out of the blue.

When the other apprentices received Yang Heng's promise, they also murmured in their hearts.

In the end, after much deliberation, he felt that wealth and wealth are in danger, and if this matter turned out to be the most profitable, it would be Yang Heng's disciples like them.

So they moved forward together, and each assured Yang Heng that they would go to the city to contact the family and pave the way for Yang Heng to open the city gate.

Yang Heng nodded in satisfaction, and finally asked: "The four gates of the capital are closed, how do you enter the city?"

Shou Jie and the others looked at each other with a smile on their lips.

"Master, you don't know. In the past, the Mansion of the Commander-in-Chief of the Five Armies has been infiltrated by various families. Just like the plug, the family we wait for is also related to the Mansion of the Commander-in-Chief of the Five Armies. It is impossible to open the city gate, but let us It’s okay for us to enter the city.”

Yang Heng felt relieved.

He thought for a while, then took out another orb from his bosom, and sent it to Shou Jie.

"You hold this bead. If there is anything you want to contact me, use magic power to input the bead, and I will naturally know."

After Shou Jie took the beads happily, several people bid farewell to Yang Heng.

When they left the big tent, the smile on Yang Heng's face disappeared immediately.

Letting these few people connect with the strength in the family and open the city gate for themselves is just a secret hand of Yang Heng.

However, Yang Heng didn't put all his hopes on these people, because everyone in the world knew that they worked hard under his command, not to mention that they were sent to him by Emperor Shunde back then.

Yang Heng would not believe that Emperor Shunde had no fear of monitoring their family.

Perhaps it was because the families of these people were too powerful, so the Emperor Shunde did not take extreme measures.

Yang Heng can't place all his hopes on them. Tomorrow, he must use his supernatural powers and attack the capital with all his strength. He wants to see if the capital is impenetrable under his supernatural powers.

On the morning of the next day, Yang Heng's army had a meal after the strike, and then came out in full force, and came under the city wall of the capital.

When Yang Heng was on the high platform behind the army, setting up an awning to watch the city wall of the capital, he took a deep breath.

Because he found that the soldiers were densely packed on the walls of the capital, at least twice as many as yesterday.

If you still look at the situation of your attack on the capital yesterday, even if all of you are dead, you will not be able to break through the gate of the capital.

Just when Yang Heng frowned, on a horse next to Yang Heng, his confidant general Liu Yue sneered.

"My lord, don't worry. These people seem to be numerous on the surface, but in my opinion they are nothing more than worthless."

After hearing this, Yang Heng raised his eyebrows, and then asked with a displeased face: "What's the reason? You don't dare to take it lightly and be arrogant."

Liu Yue cupped his hands, and then said: "Marshal, we have already found out how many soldiers and horses there are in the capital. There are so many people suddenly appearing today, they must be the generals in the capital, and they have captured the strong men to make up the number."

When he said this, Liu Yue paused, and then there was a hint of ridicule in his eyes.

"The general leading the army must not have much experience, because at this time, so many strong men are forced to recruit, and they are rushed to the city to defend the city. On the surface, their strength seems to be increased. In fact, once they arrive at the capital and are at a disadvantage, they will definitely Fleeing in swarms, if things go wrong in the end, the morale will plummet and the original elite troops will be implicated."

After hearing this, Yang Heng thought for a while, and it was indeed the case. After all, these people were ordinary citizens one day, and would fight on the battlefield the next day. They would definitely not be able to pass this level psychologically.

If their own side is in an advantage, these people can barely hold on. If they are in a disadvantage, their first thought is not to resist but to escape.

After thinking of this, Yang Heng's worries eased a bit.

Then, just like yesterday, the army began to swarm towards the capital.

But the siege with high morale was quickly splashed with cold water.

Because arrows like raindrops were shot down from the capital, and all kinds of rolling logs and thunder stones kept throwing down as if they couldn't run out.

Yang Heng looked at his soldiers from the back of the formation. He suffered heavy casualties just by charging. He was bleeding in his heart, but he knew that he must not retreat under such circumstances. Dead in vain.

Therefore, instead of letting the army retreat, Yang Heng blew the horn and sounded the war drum.

Hearing the loud sound of the trumpet and the sound of drums like raindrops, the soldiers swarmed forward even more, and immediately there was a fierce fight under the city wall.

But Yang Heng looked at the situation and thought for a while, and then said to Liu Yue beside him: "You will temporarily control the army to attack the city, and I will go to the front to help the soldiers."

When Liu Yue heard Yang Heng's order, he immediately understood what the general was going to do.

So he cupped his fists and cupped his hands in a hurry, "Go ahead, Commander, I'll leave this place to the last general."

After Yang Heng patted him on the shoulder with a smile, he handed the Lingqi in his arms to Liu Yue.

When turning around, Yang Heng intentionally or unintentionally winked at Erya next to him.

Er Ya stayed with Yang Heng for a long time, and she understood Yang Heng's meaning in an instant, so she nodded imperceptibly, and put her hands in her arms at the same time.

Seeing that Erya was prepared, Yang Heng felt relieved.

I saw him galloping out of the big formation, using his supernatural powers while walking forward, and when he was about to approach the city wall, he had already changed to a height of several tens of feet.

Those soldiers who were desperately defending the city on the city wall, as well as the strong men, saw such a huge monster rushing towards the city wall, and many of them were already so frightened that their hands and feet went weak.

This gave the besieging soldiers a chance to seize the opportunity, so soon several waves of people rushed up the city wall and occupied a small area.

Shou Ming, who was supervising the battle in the city tower, knew the situation was bad when he saw the situation. If Yang Heng was not repelled, the capital might be captured today.

Therefore, Shou Ming jumped out of the city tower fiercely, and took out a token from his arms.

All I saw was that he stroked the token lightly, and then dripped his own blood on the token.

Immediately afterwards, the token turned blood-red, and at the same time emitted a ray of light, and at this time a golden light also appeared in the palace, echoing the blood-red ray.

Chapter 645 Dragon Spirit

The treasure in Shouming's hand was borrowed from him and the emperor, and it was also the treasure at the bottom of the Shunde emperor's chest.

He is the founding emperor, made with his own arm bones.

The function is very simple, it is to allow the royal blood to mobilize the dragon energy, protect the country and defeat powerful enemies.

But this treasure is not without its flaws, that is, because he is the bone of the founding emperor, every time he summons dragon energy with supernatural powers, part of it will be infected by dragon energy, so the bones will shatter after a few times.

Fortunately, this is only the last resort of the dynasty and generally will not be used.

But this time the situation in the capital was already in danger, and the Emperor Shunde had nothing to do with it even if he didn't want to use it, so he lent it to Shouming.

I saw that the blood-red light in Shouming's hand resonated with the golden dragon energy in the capital, and then an unprecedented coercion came to Shouming's side.

Although this Shouming said he was holding the token, he didn't know much about the use of dragon energy.

Naturally, he couldn't use his supernatural powers like King Rong did back then, using dragon energy like an arm.

So Shouming could only use it superficially, only to see him open his mouth and inhale desperately.

The dragon energy that had descended was sucked into his body at once, and then Shou Ming's body began to expand violently.
