The tyrant empress is my wife, I am invincible and have been hiding
Chapter 668: Your Highness, the capital is in danger.
"Drive! Drive! Drive!"
"Get out of the way, get out of the way!"
"It's urgent."
"Tulaoguan Pass has been lost."
"Tulaoguan Pass has been lost."
Outside Yunzhou City, a soldier riding a war horse, holding a command flag, galloped over and kept roaring.
Hua Hua Hua...
As his words rang out, the guards at the gate of Yunzhou City were suddenly filled with panic and were ready for battle.
"What did you say, say it again?"
A general in armor, he was Lin Peizhi, the general of the Yunzhou City Guard Camp. He suddenly jumped down from the city gate tower and stood in front of the horse of the soldier who was delivering military intelligence.
"General, Tulao Pass has been lost. I have risked my life to come here to report the news." The soldier who brought the news rode on his warhorse and immediately rushed towards the direction of the palace.
Seeing the scout who delivered the military intelligence leave, Lin Peizhi's face changed drastically and his expression became panic-stricken. He knew very well that the other party was definitely not exaggerating.
General Jin Kai of Tulao Pass led 100,000 Lingnan troops and had already rushed to the front line from Tulao Pass to support Zhuang Yan, making Tulao Pass useless.
But what he couldn't figure out was where the enemy came from, what kind of force they were, and why they suddenly appeared at Tulao Pass.
He didn't have time to think about it, so he immediately gave the order: "Pass on my order, the city gates will be closed immediately. The first battalion of the guards, 5,000 archers, are all ready to take their positions and stationed inside the city walls. Pull all the arrows ready for me."
"The second battalion of the guards, 5,000 soldiers, will immediately climb the city wall and prepare all the rolling stones and wooden beams, ready to fight the enemy at any time."
"The third battalion of the guard battalion, 10,000 soldiers, is responsible for guarding the moat. Build the bridge over the moat for me. No one is allowed to pass through. We must not let the enemy rush into Yunzhou City."
Lin Peizhi knew very well that once Tulao Pass was lost, it would mean that the enemy could march straight in and reach the outskirts of Yunzhou City.
Outside Yunzhou City there is a moat more than 20 meters wide, with a bridge over the river.
This was when Li Bing and his son were building the Jiuzhuan Dam. They unexpectedly found it very useful.
Once a crisis occurs in Yunzhou City, the bridge can be pulled up with iron cables to prevent the enemy from crossing the river. If the enemy forces their way across the river, the archers on the city wall can shoot arrows to stop them.
"As ordered!"
Following Lin Peizhi's arrangement, the 20,000 soldiers of the guard camp began to perform their duties.
"General, no...we want to enter the city."
"The enemy is attacking. We must enter the city, otherwise we will all be buried with them."
“Don’t lift the bridge.”
Hundreds of soldiers on the city wall pulled two heavy iron chains and began to continuously pull up the bridge over the moat, which was more than ten feet wide.
The people outside the moat saw this scene and became panicked, clamoring to enter Yunzhou City.
"General, there are too many people on the moat bridge. If we forcibly pull up the bridge, I'm afraid some of the people will fall into the moat. I'm afraid..."
A captain of a thousand men ran up to Lin Peizhi from the city wall and bowed to report.
"We can't care about so many things now. If the enemy breaks into Yunzhou City, the entire Western Shu Dynasty will be finished. Hurry and pull up the bridge for me."
Lin Peizhi also saw that on the other side of the moat, more and more people were rushing towards the bridge over the moat. If it was not pulled up, it would be too late.
"Go quickly, what are you standing there for? Do you want to die?"
When Lin Peizhi saw that the captain was still hesitating, he immediately shouted angrily.
"As ordered."
The centurion turned and rushed up the city wall. Looking at the people on the moat bridge, he could only stamp his feet and said, "Hurry up and pull up the bridge."
"Captain, those are all the people of our Western Shu Dynasty?" Upon hearing this, a soldier's arms that were holding the chains trembled continuously.
Snapped!
The captain slapped him hard on the head and said, "Do you think I don't know? Pull him up quickly, or we will all die."
"Pull harder!"
Seeing that many soldiers were still hesitating, the centurion simply took action and pulled the chain hard. In an instant, many civilians piled on the bridge slid down and fell heavily into the moat.
The water in the moat was surging, and some civilians were smashed to pieces in an instant. The blood dyed the moat water red.
"what!"
"You bunch of beasts, don't you care whether we live or die?"
"General, please, don't pull,"
"father……"
On the other side of the moat, people watched as the bridge was constantly being pulled up by iron chains and people fell into the moat one after another, roaring and crying.
"Oh no, the enemy is coming."
"Run, cavalry."
"Run? How can you run? If you jump into the moat, you will die."
"The bridges were pulled up by the defenders."
The many people staying on the other side of the moat had no time to feel angry or sad before they heard the deafening sound of horse hooves coming from behind them.
There was fear in their eyes, and the densely packed crowd had endless sadness in their eyes, as the saying goes.
Well, the people are suffering!
Death, the people suffer!
Dynasties fight against each other and the throne changes. Hasn't it been like this since ancient times?
"Lord, what should I do?"
Li Shanxiao, riding on his warhorse, paused. In front of him were unarmed civilians. If he charged forward with his black-armored cavalry, these civilians would be trampled into meat paste in an instant.
"Order the entire army to stop right here."
Ye Feng looked at the densely packed people, including children, their eyes filled with a desire to survive.
"Listen, all the people. I am the ruler of the Song Dynasty. You cannot enter Yunzhou City now, so leave immediately."
"When I march and fight, I only kill the enemy's soldiers, not the civilians."
"Back off!"
Ye Feng said loudly.
"If the bridge over the moat is pulled up, we won't be able to cross the river."
Lady Xinling couldn't help but sigh.
If we rush over now, we might be able to seize control of the bridge.
"what!"
"Thank you, Lord Zhen Guo!"
"Thank you, Lord Zhen Guo!"
When many people heard Ye Feng's words, they bowed and ran outside quickly. They were afraid that Ye Feng's cavalry would charge in.
……
"You are useless. You can't even eat. Get out of my way."
Liu Xie sat upright, his face full of displeasure.
He pushed the beautiful woman in his arms away.
"Your Highness, please forgive me. This is my first time eating this... My teeth are a little unfamiliar..."
The woman was so frightened that her face turned pale and she quickly knelt down to apologize.
"Report! Repay!"
"Your Highness, Your Highness, it's bad, the enemy has reached the outskirts of the capital."
At this moment, before Liu Xie had time to enjoy the beauty in front of him, he heard hurried voices coming from outside.
"Enemy? Where do the enemies come from?"
When Liu Xie heard this, his face changed drastically. He stood up, quickly pulled up his trousers, pushed open the door and walked outside.
"What a waste, so soft and small, ugh!"
Seeing Liu Xie leaving, the beautiful woman's face was filled with anger. She muttered and spat out the saliva in her mouth, with a look of disgust on her face.
