Violent sword repair teaches you to be a human being

Chapter 145 The Empress Dowager Who Died for the Country (24)
Although he made complaints about it, Lin Zhen was actually quite satisfied with the result: neither of the two sides had a fight, but just moved their lips a little, and Zamur honestly led the Huns army out of Yucheng.This is a big city with high walls and deep moats, the gate of the capital, so it was taken down without using a single soldier.

What's the difference between this kind of big deal that you can pick up without any effort, and a pie in the sky!
As for whether the Xiongnu would jump in anger after hearing the news...that's none of her business.

Lin Zhen watched the Huns' army leave with satisfaction. She did not regroup until the last Huns left from Yucheng. She rode her horse forward and said to Li Mo, "Let's go. Pass Yucheng. You can see Kyoto."

The gate of Yucheng was opened quietly like that.

The army silently passed through the city gate, walked through the silent streets, and then saw the messy and desolate city.

After being occupied by the Huns, Yucheng was quite quiet, only the hurried footsteps of the army and the sound of horseshoes echoing in the empty streets could be clearly heard.

Walking in the city, few pedestrians could be seen. Occasionally, a figure flashed past the corner. Even if he walked fast, he could still see his tattered clothes that could barely cover his body, and his emaciated body. The body and ribs almost pierced the skin.

The streets that should have been bustling and bustling were empty, only some bits and pieces of dilapidated objects that the Hun army hadn't taken away were scattered on the ground, looking a little messy.

Lin Zhen sighed, and put this account on the Xiongnu's head for the time being, and Jiang Xing's share by the way, and will settle the account with them after Qiuhou when he has time.

She galloped down the street on her horse.

Although the location of Yucheng is dangerous, the city is not particularly big. It is only five or six li away from the north gate to the south gate.Lin Zhen led the army through Yucheng quickly, and then walked along the avenue outside the south gate of Yucheng. There were no barriers on the way, and everyone soon came to the foot of the capital of the Chu Dynasty.

The city wall of the capital city is very high, and the moat outside the city is deep and swift, and it looks as solid as gold.

No wonder Zamul lingered there after capturing Yucheng. Presumably Mobei didn't have any reinforcements, and if he forcibly attacked the city, it would be thankless and he could only stay in the city for a while.After all, for a strong city like the capital, if there is no one in the city to support it, it will take some effort to win the capital.

Lin Zhen looked at the closed city gate in front of him, and said jokingly, "At least the defenders in the capital know how to close the gate to resist the enemy. With Jiang Xing's behavior, he didn't directly order people to open the gate and surrender. It's rare."

It is really rare for this kind of behavior to appear on Jiang Xing.

Li Mo felt that compared with Jiang Xing's previous behavior, he was able to defend the capital when the Huns were about to approach the city this time, which is already a very commendable thing: "No matter how cowardly Jiang Xing is, he will never dare to treat his ancestors Throwing Sheji aside? It is rare to do something that is not so muddled."

Of course, the cession of the land belongs to the cession of the land, and the summation belongs to the summation. It is all in order to be able to continue to settle down in a corner and sit on the throne. There is still a big difference from the direct subjugation of the country.Thinking about it, Jiang Xing wouldn't be so outrageous.

They were all beaten directly to the door of the house, so they have to stand up and resist, right?

Just thinking about this, Lin Zhen looked up at the city wall again, and was surprised to find: "Hey, there is no one on the city wall?"

There were only a few banners planted on the top of the wall, floating weakly in mid-air, and several human-shaped objects under the banners stood there motionless.

After a closer look, I realized that it was actually a few straw men stuffed with straw in the armor. If it weren't for a bunch of straw emerging from the gap in the armor, it would be really hard to see that standing on the city wall in a daze. The defenders turned out to be fake.

In addition, there was no one on the city wall.

Li Mo also galloped forward, and lined up with Lin Zhen's horse's head. When he saw the situation on the city wall clearly, he couldn't help frowning and said: "Your Highness, there is no one guarding this city, but they are bluffing with straw men... "

Why use straw people instead of defenders on the city?Could it be that there is such a shortage of soldiers in the capital?
Lin Zhen also felt a little puzzled. She could only attribute this kind of weird thing to Jiang Xing being a demon again: "Could it be that Jiang Xing did something wrong again?"

Judging from Jiang Xing's behavior, it is possible for him to do any outrageous things. If there are no defenders on the city wall of the capital and the scarecrows are related to him, it sounds reasonable.

But the problem is that the scarecrow can't move or speak, and can only stand there in a daze.If this is the case, how can they contact several internal agents in the upper city?
After watching for a long time, there was still no movement on the city wall.So Lin Zhen rode a horse and walked across the white stone bridge outside the city gate, stepped forward and tried to knock on the city gate wrapped in gold and iron with the handle of the spear in his hand: "Hey, is there anyone?"

There was an empty sound of iron "dong dong" from the knocked city gate, but other than that, there was no sound.

Thinking about it, there are no defenders on the city wall, so how could there be behind the city gate?
Li Mo felt a little worried about this: "Your Highness, what should we do..."

I don't know what the situation in the city is like, it's really a headache.

Lin Zhen looked up at the high and strong city wall of the capital, smiled shyly, and said, "Let's go in first and then we'll talk."

It's not easy to sneak in the unguarded city wall?
Lin Zhen didn't need to do it himself, Li Mo immediately understood, and sent one of his own soldiers to climb up the city wall with a bamboo ladder. He was like an ape climbing a tree, with quick and dexterous movements, and quickly ran towards the city wall out a lot.

After only waiting for tens of breaths, he had already climbed to the top of the bamboo ladder, leaped towards the opposite side of the tower, and landed lightly on the city wall.

After the soldier went up skillfully, he grabbed the head of a scarecrow and looked around, and found that there was no mystery, it was just an ordinary straw man stuffed with straw.

He threw the helmet stuffed with straw on the ground with a "clang" without interest, then probed his head to identify the direction, and after confirming that there was no one around, he quickly ran towards the city gate and opened the gate of the capital city. .

Seeing the city gate open, Lin Zhen and Li Mo hurried forward with the army behind them: "Drive!"
