"The first person to climb the city will be rewarded with a thousand taels and a hundred bolts of cloth!"

A general from Chen State waved the sword at his waist and shouted, which suddenly boosted the morale of the soldiers and they rushed to the city wall carrying ladders.

"The archers let go of their arrows! We must not let them come up!"

The general of Chu State stood on the city wall and looked at the crowd of soldiers below and gave orders quickly. The soldiers around him took out bows and arrows from the arrow pots and shot at the enemy.

"shhhhhh"

Rows of bows and arrows passed over the heads of the Chen soldiers and landed on them.

"Raise your shield!"

Upon seeing this, the leader, Captain Chen Guofu, ordered the siege soldiers to raise their shields, but some soldiers were still unresponsive and were hit by sharp arrows. They vomited blood and fell into the sea of ​​people.

"Ladder!"

"Hey! Hey! Hey!"

Groups of soldiers carrying ladders slowly stood up the ladders through their shields.

"Quick! Shoot where there is a ladder!"

The generals of the Chu State realized that something was wrong and quickly pointed to the ladder. The archers around them also bent their bows and shot arrows.

"shhhhhh"

"what!"

"Uh!"

Accompanied by scattered screams, every time a Chen soldier fell, another soldier rushed up. In this way, the ladder was gradually built up towards the city wall.

"Snapped"

The moment the ladder was put up, Chen Guo's soldiers' eyes lit up, and they climbed up step by step holding up their shields and swords.

"Coming up! They're coming up!"

Just as a Chu archer finished speaking these words, he was shot through the throat by an arrow from an archer outside the city wall. His eyes dimmed and he fell to the ground.

"Don't panic! Throw rocks and kerosene quickly! Don't let them come up!"

Under the command of the general, the soldiers of Chu State regained their morale. Those who threw stones threw stones, and those who threw kerosene threw kerosene.

"Ah! My eyes!"

"Fire! Fire! There is fire!"

"Help me! Help me!"

For a time, the entire border turned into a purgatory, with fresh lives dying every moment.

Half an hour passed like this, and the city wall was covered with stinky corpses and some burning smells. The city wall was also covered with blood, but the war was still going on.

"They're coming up! Fire oil! Hurry!"

"No...no more, the kerosene and stones are gone."

"Varied..."

Before the soldier could finish his words, he was chopped down to the ground by a Chen soldier who climbed onto the city wall.

"Come in... come in! Chen Guo's army has come in!"

With the influx of Chen's army, Chu's situation began to reverse, and Chu's border was broken.

......

"bang bang"

There was a knock on the door, and after a long time, a rustling sound was heard, and then the door slowly opened.

Chu Ruohan, with her hair disheveled, poked her head out slightly and said hello when she found out that the person at the door was Emperor Chu.

"Hello, grandpa."

"Hey! Hello Han'er."

Emperor Chu smiled and nodded. When he was about to ask about Lin Yi's whereabouts, he suddenly saw a pale man with lifeless eyes in the deepest part of the room, looking dully at the ceiling. This made Emperor Chu tremble all over and didn't know what to do. Open your mouth.

"What's wrong, Grandpa? Is there something wrong?"

"Ahem...Didn't Lin Yi come to me to ask me about the auspicious day to get married? I asked the Taoist priest for a fortune-telling, and the day after tomorrow is the best time."

"Really! That means I can get married to Ayi soon!"

Chu Ruohan's beautiful eyes flashed and her face lit up.

"Yes, Haner, you and Lin Yi's wedding clothes are ready. I will personally hold the most grand wedding day for you the day after tomorrow."

"Grandpa...thank you."

"This sentence is out of context."

Emperor Chu waved his hands and smiled, and when he was about to say something, he noticed that Lin Yi's head on the bed suddenly tilted as if he was dead~

"Well... that Han'er, Lin Yi, is he in good health recently?"

"Why did Grandpa suddenly talk about this? Don't worry, I've checked Ah Yi's body and he's very healthy!"

"So good... so good..."

Emperor Chu nodded awkwardly.

"Then I won't bother you anymore, Han'er... play it safe. After all, Lin Yi is still young..."

After saying this, Emperor Chu quickly left without looking back. This fast pace was extremely inconsistent with the steady nature of him in the past.

"Squeak~"

As the door closed, Chu Ruohan hummed a little tune and slowly returned to his bed, gently pulled Lin Yi's head back and placed it on his shoulder.

"Hey Ayi~ In two days it will be the day when we get married. I'm really looking forward to that day."

"Hmm... It seems that I went too far. It's better to be more restrained next time... But why are you so distracted, A Yi? It's all your fault after all. This is the corresponding punishment. , hum~"

......

"Your Majesty! It's not good!"

Emperor Chu had just returned to the study and was about to prepare a dowry for Chu Ruohan when he was stopped by soldiers in black who suddenly appeared in front of him.

I saw a soldier in black kneeling respectfully on one knee and bowing his head and saying: "Letter from the border, Chen Guo sent 300,000 troops to attack our country's Yanguan three hours ago. I'm afraid it's already in danger now..."

"You can't bear it now? It seems that Emperor Chen has been planning this for a long time."

"Your Majesty, do you think it is necessary to send the defenders from each city back? According to such a fierce attack, there is a high probability that they will directly rush into the capital all the way, but our current defense strength..."

"No need! Even if they return with their troops, they will eat away at the surrounding cities. Now we can only let them attack first."

"But...but Your Majesty..."

"Don't worry about me. What they should worry about is themselves. Go ahead and tell me. I will hold a grand wedding ceremony for my royal granddaughter and make the capital more beautiful."

"Yes...."

The soldier in black wanted to say something else, but it was impossible for him to disobey the king's order, so he could only nod and accept the order.

"Oh, Emperor Chen, Emperor Chen, you are so confused."

Emperor Chu looked at the bright moon in the sky and sighed deeply.

"Let's think about Haner's dowry."

......

"I...I'm still alive?"

When Lin Yi touched his chest and face to make sure he was still alive, he sighed happily. This was the first time he experienced the feeling of "euthanasia", which made him shudder when he recalled it.

"Ayi, wake up, come and taste the fish soup I made for you~"

Chu Ruohan just opened the door and came in at this time, holding a bowl of steaming fish soup in his hand.

"Ruo...Ruohan?"

Lin Yi saw Chu Ruohan's body shaking instinctively, and it wasn't until Lin Yi adjusted for a while that he gradually calmed down.

"This fish soup is..."

"They were fished out of the pond. Don't worry, Ayi. Now I have fished out all the fish in that pond, and the pond has become flat. I'm afraid I won't be able to catch any fish in the future~"
