Having said that, Qiu Longci had no idea about this battle, and Pei Jinglin came to a conclusion after thinking about these words carefully.

"Since that's the case, it seems that the only option is to procrastinate. It will take five days at the earliest for the border army to arrive. I think it can be delayed." Hearing Qiu Longci's words, Pei Jinglin didn't panic at all, but calmed down Said.

After all, it's hard for a clever woman to cook without rice, how can she fight without soldiers and win the enemy?Moreover, this battle is about the lives of the people, so it must be treated with caution.

Qiu Long acquiesced to Pei Jinglin's words, "But Xi Yuankui won't sit still, and it will take a certain amount of energy to procrastinate. Now let the soldiers guarding the city guard the gates of the imperial city. If there is any change in Xi Yuankui, immediately report..."

As a result, before Qiu Long could finish his words, a soldier rushed over in a hurry.

"My lord, Mr. Pei is not well!" Xiao Bing said in a flustered tone, panting heavily, and he knew at a glance that he had run all the way.

Pei Jinglin frowned, looked at the little soldier who was running, and asked sharply, "What happened?"

"The imperial city, the imperial city is surrounded!" Xiaobing said out of breath.

Qiu Longci's expression darkened immediately, and he passed the two of them and walked towards the place where he had climbed the watchtower. Pei Jinglin also followed quickly.

If not, from the high lookout tower, one can see the continuous bonfire outside the winding city tower at a glance. Looking from a distance, the city gate is full of flames, almost lighting up half of the sky. Qiu Longci couldn't help but sneered when he saw it, "Does this old fox, Xi Yuankui, want to sneak attack?"

In the dead of night, Xi Yuankui actually chose to besiege the city, which was beyond his expectation.

Pei Jinglin looked around, with a serious expression on his face. If Xi Yuankui attacked and entered the city now, with the strength of the troops in the Huaxia Imperial City, he would really be unable to resist.

"Prime Minister's posture looks like he is going to attack the city tonight, can he resist it now?" Pei Jinglin asked in a worried voice.

Qiu Longci's eyes were long and narrow, and the tails of his eyes were sharp and slightly drooping. At this moment, he looked coldly at the six-nation army surrounding the imperial city, and looked even more stern and unapproachable. He only moved a little when he heard this, "The current plan, There is only one word, if it is a hard attack, this king will lead eight thousand elite cavalry to fight outside the city."

Eight thousand fine riders?Pei Jinglin thought it was Qiu Long's slip of the tongue, and said that five thousand soldiers were eight thousand elite cavalry. Such a critical situation is not the time to correct mistakes. After Pei Jinglin hurriedly responded, he turned around and left.

That night, Juyongguan was fully guarded, and the clamor of the six countries/armies outside the city was still unmoved, but the number of soldiers guarding the main tower was doubled.

Luo Qingzhu, who was sitting on the carriage, was closing his eyes and recuperating, completely unaware that Huaxia was surrounded after he left the imperial city.

The imperial city was peaceful, and the people in the city didn't know that the danger was so close to them.

There are many crises, but the situation is still calm. Under the calm, it is not known when the danger will break out.

The city tower was built on the night it was built, but it also played a role in resisting foreign enemies. Xi Yuankui did not lead the army to break through the city that night. Perhaps Xi Yuankui underestimated the defense of the imperial city and did not concentrate all his troops.

So just one day later, Xi Yuankui made a comeback again. This time, Xi Yuankui did not choose to be in the middle of the night, but at noon.

Qiu Longci was looking at the map of the imperial city in Juyongguan at the moment. When Pei Jinglin rushed in in a panic, Qiu Longci was about to put the map away.

"Your Majesty, Xi Yuankui has made a comeback, and the attacking force is now at the gate of the city, and he is attacking the city. Xi Yuankui thinks he wants to break through in one fell swoop!" Pei Jinglin's forehead was covered with sweat in this cold autumn, and the hair on the side of his face was also covered with hair. The strong wind blew a little messy.

Qiu Longci closed the map in his hand with a 'snap'. It seems that Xi Yuankui is already in a hurry. Maybe he knows that the border army is on the way. If it is not captured at this time, it will be even more difficult in the future. .

"The gate of the city is strong, and it will take two hours to attack forcefully. This king will lead the elite cavalry to go there now. You issue the order now, so that the people in the city can live at home and avoid unnecessary disasters." Qiu Longci calmly ordered.

"Yes, my lord." Pei Jinglin calmed down a little, turned around and walked out quickly.

"Beiying!" After Qiu Longci gave an order, Beiying appeared from somewhere.

"Subordinates are here!"

"Order eight thousand fine riders to wait for the king outside the pass. After a moment, go to the main tower. Xi Yuankui must not be allowed to break through the imperial city." Qiu Longci ordered in a cold voice, and the aura on his body also said these words suddenly changed.

"Yes, my lord!" Beiying replied with a firm tone and full of arrogance. The clothes on her body were not the black clothes she used to wear, but a thin layer of armor that was close to her body. Although it looked thin, everyone who knew it knew it. It is a rare soft armor in the world, which can be used for sharp weapons, and can protect your name in critical moments.

In the whole world, only the Regent can have this kind of soft armor.

Qiu Longci watched Beiying leave quickly and powerfully, then turned around and walked inward.

The sun was in full bloom, and the sun was hanging high, dispelling the cold autumn air. Eight thousand cavalry dressed in brown and black armor and masked their faces, lined up on the yellow ground in front of the pass in an orderly manner without any unnecessary movements.

There is also a horse standing beside each hidden guard, and those horses stand silently beside each of them just like themselves.

These eight thousand cavalry were like deadly soldiers from hell, and the soldiers in the pass didn't even have the guts to take a second look.

And after Pei Jinglin gave the order, he also put on a suit of armor and rode towards the pass, but what he saw was not the ordinary soldiers in the pass, but those he had never seen before... It would be wrong to say that they were soldiers .

It turned out that the eight thousand fine horses that the prince said was not a slip of the tongue, Pei Jinglin stared at the unmoving eight thousand fine horses, dazed.

This person should be unknown to the prince and raised by himself. Because of Xi Yuankui's rebellion, he appeared in the world. After he became known to the world, he imagined the consequences...

Pei Jinglin suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart.

But looking at the eight thousand fine cavalry, it seems that there is an army of tens of thousands. It is not impossible to deal with the army led by Xi Yuankui.

No wonder Qiu Longci didn't change his face when facing Xi Yuankui's rebellion, because he had a good hole card in his hand.

It's just that if this matter can end, I'm afraid... Pei Jinglin lowered his eyes, wondering what he was thinking.

At this time, Qiu Longci just came riding his thousand-mile horse. He was dressed in armor, with a black inner robe as the bottom, and his hem was blown up by the wind.

When he was approaching in front of the eight thousand fine riders, he suddenly pulled the reins, raised the horse's head high, and let out a horse cry that seemed to tear the sky.

Then Qiu Longci pulled the horse rope again, the horse stopped obediently again, and stood still, the yellow sand gradually fell back, and it was suddenly clear.

Pei Jinglin watched from a place not far from Qiu Longci, and felt that he was as small as the yellow sand in front of Qiu Longci.

The bloodthirsty aura on Qiu Longci's body was not concealed at this time, and it was fully displayed. It was only seen by soldiers who returned from the battlefield with blood. It turned out that this was the real Qiu Longci.

The rebellious, cruel and ruthless Prince Regent in the rumors is just restrained.
