Great Zhou Tianzi

089 The Royal City is in Danger

[I'm not good enough, I was squeezed out of the new book list so quickly, children's shoes, give me some support, flowers, collections, VIPs, whatever! 】

The old eunuch was in a hurry, and was stopped by Zhao Ling as soon as he took a step forward. You are not qualified enough to get close to Ji Jie.

"General Zhaowen, you can't just sit idly by!" The old eunuch said with emotion in his voice, "The emperor regrets that he didn't care for you before, but no matter what, you are the emperor's nephew, a member of the royal family of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and you are always welcome. You can't just watch Da Zhou being wiped out by the vassal states! Once Wangcheng falls, how can Zhaocheng stay out of it? This is a relationship between lips and teeth..."

Not to mention, the old eunuch has some ink in his stomach, and it took great pains for King Zhou Nan to send him as an envoy. If it were an ordinary person, he would definitely think his words made sense.

Ji Jie is no ordinary person.

Dazhou has more than 1 regular troops, plus the imperial guards and the private soldiers supported by the princes and ministers, there are at least 2 people. As the defensive side, [-] people are against [-]. This is a huge advantage.

According to the law of war, ten times surround it, five times attack it, and double it fight it. That is to say, if you want to capture a city, your military strength must be at least five times that of the opponent, otherwise it will be very difficult to win.

Although the Qin army is powerful, there are only 5 people, and there are at least 2 people in the royal city, and ordinary people can also participate in the defense of the city after being armed. of.

"Go back and tell the Son of Heaven that Ji Jie won't just sit idly by, but it's inappropriate to ask my people to go for reinforcements before the war starts!" What should I do if I came here to violate Zhaocheng?"

"Then what does General Zhaowen mean?" There was a gleam in the triangular eyes of the old eunuch.

Ji Jie remained expressionless, and said, "I don't mean anything, don't make assumptions, you can go!"

The old eunuch wanted to say a few more words, but Zhao Ling and Ji Jian put up one arm and pushed him out. Ji Xueling asked softly, "Brother Jie, you don't really care about Wangcheng's life, do you?"

O woman!At critical moments, she always softened her heart. At that time, when she fled from Zhao Kingdom, King Zhou Nan angrily announced that she would not have her daughter, and ignored her life and death. Now that the king's city is in danger, she couldn't bear to watch her family being slaughtered.

Ji Jie smiled and said: "How could it be, Ling'er, don't worry, I will lead troops to reinforce at the critical moment! But not now, think about it, if I lead people there now, the emperor will definitely put our people in battle At the forefront, there is even something that allows me to go out of the city to fight, you know the personality of the emperor, what do you think?"

Ji Xueling nodded. Her father, the emperor, would definitely do this. In this way, the people brought by Ji Jie would suffer heavy casualties. As a result, both Qin Jun and Qin Jun would be hurt. Once the Qin army retreated, the emperor would immediately drive him out of the royal city, and Completely obliterate its achievements.

"So, let your crown prince show off his extraordinary military talent first!" Ji Jie analyzed: "The emperor holds the military and political power firmly in his hands, but once the war starts, he will hand over the command of the army to Ji Jie." Jia, Ji Jia has never experienced the feeling of being an emperor. He doesn't want Dazhou to be destroyed so soon, so he will lead the soldiers to hold on to the city. In addition, the teacher is far away, and the morale of the army will decline accordingly. At that time, I will lead people to rush there and join forces with Ji Jiali, and the Qin army will definitely be defeated!"

Ji Jie's analysis was wonderful, and the four of them nodded together, but he didn't know what to do. Whether King Zhou Nan and Emperor Ji Jia could do what he said was still unknown.

Historically, not long after the Great Zhou King City was besieged, King Zhou Nan surrendered. This is why Ji Jie said in front of the old eunuch that he would never sit idly by. The emperor has a hope, although this hope is invisible and intangible, but as long as there is this hope, the emperor will not surrender easily.

Everyone knows what it means to surrender. Since King Qin already has the heart to destroy Zhou, surrendering means putting his head on someone else's butcher's knife.

A secret letter was handed over to Ji Xueling. After opening it, she read out the contents: "The Qin army has [-] infantry and [-] cavalry. Most of them have participated in the Battle of Changping and are very powerful. The military counselor Sima Jing , This person is an elder of the Sima family, the intelligence master. The Sima family is vying for the position of patriarch. I don’t know why he appeared in the Qin army! The Qin army camped ten miles away from the royal city, and according to the situation, they will tentatively attack the city early tomorrow morning.”

It turned out to be Sima Jing, with him, Meng Ao's grasp of information has not only improved to a higher level.

Meng Ao himself is a general who is good at fighting, plus Sima Jing who is an intelligence background, it seems that this time the opponent is really strong and cannot be underestimated!

King Zhou Nan suffered a lot.

Early the next morning, Ji Jie and Ji Xueling appeared on the high ground not far from Wangcheng, accompanied by two brothers Xiong Ba and Xiong Ben.

Ji Jie took out a binoculars. The lens barrel was made of bronze, divided into three segments and retractable. The lens was made of high-quality transparent crystal. In clear weather, objects five miles away could be clearly seen.

He does not intend to promote this thing to the Seven Kingdoms. After all, it is better to keep some things for your own use. If everyone is on the same level, there is no advantage to take advantage of.

Through the binoculars, he saw Qin Jun walking in neat steps, holding a huge shield and walking towards the city gate. The huge siege equipment was slowly moving towards the city wall under the push of strong soldiers.

Dozens of ramming cars and cloud towers, giant stone catapults roared, and round stone balls smashed towards the city walls and gates.

The stone ball hit the city wall, and the city bricks flew in all directions. The smashed and shattered arrow stacks fell down with the archers hiding behind. Many defenders began to tremble, and some even peed on their pants.

The bed crossbow on the top of the city shoots giant javelin-like arrows, which penetrate the giant shield of the Qin army and then penetrate the soldiers holding the shield. However, the number of bed crossbows is limited, and they cannot do critical damage to the densely packed Qin army below the city.

Ji Jie handed the binoculars to Ji Xueling, and said with a smile: "Sure enough, as I thought, your brother has reached the top of the city, but your father never showed up!"

The older a person is, the greater his desire for power, but his courage becomes less and less, and he cherishes his life more. This point has been perfectly interpreted by King Zhou Nan. He first took back all the troops, thinking that this would be the safest way, but the war continued. He didn't dare to go to the city to oversee the army, so he had to hand over the military power to his son.

Ji Jia was waving the long sword and chanting words, which must have stimulated the morale of the guards. Not to mention, after the brat bluffed, the morale had improved significantly.

The next step is to see who is more desperate, and the brave wins when they meet on a narrow road. This is the same truth through the ages.
