Chapter 627 Siege (one more)
In the Black Cliff Pass, everyone is busy preparing for the battle. Outside the Black Cliff Pass, the Great Wei Crown Prince Yuanzhao is not idle, and he also leads people to formulate battle strategies.
Prince Yuanzhao was favored and trusted by the Emperor of Wei since he was a child. He acted without any scruples and recruited talented people. Therefore, his subordinates also produced many capable people.
Because he has never been restrained by others, the Emperor of Wei is not afraid that the crown prince will be capable, nor is he afraid that his successor will threaten his imperial power. Therefore, the capable people he has recruited all these years from childhood to adulthood, in fact, are more powerful than Prince Yan of the Liang Dynasty. There are many capable people.
Not only talented students and think tank stars, but also knights and swordsmen who have taken refuge in the rivers and lakes.
After a series of failed plans against General Zhang Ping's rebellion against Daliang, Jibei and Pingxi, Yuan Zhao was extremely unwilling to withdraw his troops. Therefore, when he came back to attack Southern Chu this time, Yuan Zhao brought all the think tanks and capable people around him. People and horses.
There is He Lanjue, the number one hero in Wei, Lu Jin, the number one counselor in Wei, Ren Yue, the number one chivalrous man in Wei, Luo Yan, the number one poison doctor in Wei, and so on.
It is worth mentioning that this Luo Yan is a woman, a teenage girl. It is said that she learned to use poison at the age of three. He poisoned his master to death, inherited the Poison Doctor School, used the entire Poison Doctor School as a dowry, and went to Prince Yuanzhao's palace to recommend himself for marriage. At that time, the entire Wei Dynasty was shocked. Everyone thought that Prince Yuanzhao was not Yes, after all, the Crown Princess of Great Wei, the future queen, cannot be a quack girl, but unexpectedly, Prince Yuanzhao asked Luo Yan a question, saying that within ten days, if Luo Yan can successfully poison him , he agreed to marry him as the princess.
Yuan Zhao, even though he was favored and trusted by the Emperor Wei since he was a child, he did not spoil him. On the contrary, he is very competitive, talented, talented, and has an extraordinary mind. not him. His brothers had tried to kill him growing up, but none of them had succeeded.
So, when Yuan Zhao came up with this question, everyone felt that Luo Yan was useless.
But unexpectedly, under the precautions of the prince and everyone around him, it took only three days, and Luo Yan was poisoned by Yuan Zhao without anyone noticing.
When Luo Yan came to the door with an antidote and smiled, Yuan Zhao was said to have been silent for a long time, agreed to the marriage, and asked the emperor to issue an order to inform the Great Wei that the poison doctor Meng Luoyan was his crown prince.
Although the Emperor of Wei was not very satisfied with this daughter-in-law, he also felt that she was really capable, and she was worthy of the status of the crown princess, but he was a little worried, for fear that in the future the crown prince would set up a side concubine, Liangdi, concubine or something. , and was poisoned to death by Luo Yan.
Yuan Zhao didn't think it was a big problem, he just said that a gentleman's promise is worth ten thousand gold, even if she attacks his backyard in the future, he can only accept it. Big deal, he won't marry any side concubine Liangdi or concubine.
Emperor Wei was said to be very speechless at the time, and silently issued the imperial decree for bestowing marriage.
At that time, when the imperial decree of marriage was issued, it was discussed by people for a while, and it was also spread to Daliang and Nanchu. However, nothing happened to Luo Yan later, and after he obtained the status of the crown princess, he returned to the poison doctor. He went to study poison medicine behind closed doors, and there was nothing wrong with it, so that it disappeared after a gust of wind, making people almost forget that the Great Wei Prince had such a prospective princess.
Before she came, she naturally brought countless medical and poison experts and poisonous insects.
Luo Yan was born with self-confidence. She listened to Prince Yuanzhao discussing the battle strategy with everyone. She listened and didn't make a sound until everyone finished discussing. When Yuanzhao turned to her and asked her if she had any opinions, she opened her mouth and said : "I can sneak into the Black Cliff Pass tonight and poison Su Rong to death."
Yuan Zhao laughed, "If she is so easy to die, I don't have to spend so much effort to bring troops to Nanchu personally. Su Rong is good at medicine and medicine, I don't allow you to act rashly, you just follow me, This king said to do it, you can do it."
Luo Yan frowned, a little unhappy, "I just listened to it for a long time, and I have nothing to do with the strategy you formulated. Then why did you ask me to help you?"
"No, you are very useful and can help me a lot, but you can't rush, you have to listen to me." Yuan Zhao patted her on the shoulder, "I never do useless work."
"Okay." Luo Yan nodded and was appeased by Yuan Zhao.
Yuan ordered 800,000 soldiers and horses to rest for a day, and in the early morning of the second day, he launched an offensive against Heiyaguan.
Zhang Mao, Jiang Zhu, and Ning Ze took turns guarding the whole night. During the night, the Wei soldiers did not attack. At dawn, the three gathered together. Each of them had a meat bun in his hand. They were eating deliciously when they heard the sound of the city gate. Someone shouted, "Da Wei attacked the city!"
The three immediately swallowed the meat buns in their hands in twos and twos, and ran up the city wall. After seeing it, it was true that Wei had attacked the city, and the attack was fierce. Jiang Zhu immediately ordered people, "Hurry up and report to the queen, Wei has attacked the city!" .”
The three quickly took their weapons and together with the soldiers resisted Wei's offensive.
In the city, Su Rong and the others were busy in the middle of the night, and they took the time to sleep in the second half of the night. After two hours of sleep, before dawn, Su Rong got up, replaced Feng Ling, asked him to rest, and took the people with him personally. Tour layout.
When Su Rong heard the news of the siege, Su Rong immediately rode to the city gate.
After she boarded the city wall, she saw that Dawei's attack was really brave. Dawei set up a ladder, but was set on fire by the soldiers of Nanchu. There are also crossbowmen, using special crossbow arrows, to shoot row after row at the Southern Chu soldiers guarding the city wall. The soldiers defending the city on the southern Chu side also have bowmen, but the range of the bows and arrows is not as far as that of the Great Wei. Using shields to block side-to-side shots, they were very passive for a while, and many people in the Wei Dynasty had already climbed the city wall by using the ladders. The sound is loud.
Zhang Mao, Jiang Zhu, and Ning Ze dispatched men to fight with them. They were in a hurry and suffered heavy injuries. Wei's offensive also shocked the three of them, and even the three of them almost doubted that Wei was so ferocious. The siege of the city, the crossbow arrows are so powerful, can they really withstand half a month?
It wasn't until Su Rong came to the city wall, seeing the situation, her eyes turned cold, and she threw out a golden needle from her sleeve, like snowflakes, and saw little stars. Wherever she went, the soldiers of the Great Wei fell one by one, and the three of them Immediately, he stopped the thought of overpowering others and destroying his prestige, and Qi Qi focused on fighting with a shudder.
