    Chapter 249: Fighting

    Meng Yao didn't answer but asked: "How did you interpret that poem?"

    "Poetry?" Yang Xiao was startled, wondering what Meng Yao was talking about without beginning or ending.

    "The bright moon is hidden in the clouds, and heavy rains are a disaster; the banks of the Luo River are three feet long, and the rivers and rivers are ten feet deep."

    "Oh" Yang Xiao immediately understood that Meng Yao must be talking about how they escaped the shocking explosion in Mingyang Palace.

    Yang Xiao smiled profoundly and did not answer his question. He said to himself: "You have no name as a teacher, how can you block the mouth of the world?"

    Meng Yao was stunned and didn't expect Yang Xiao to ask such a question, but she was a good woman after all. After thinking about it for a moment, she said: "My husband is the second prince of the Sui Dynasty. He is now imprisoned by the emperor. I am here to welcome you."  husband"

    ¡°Hahaha¡ª¡ª¡± Yang Xiao burst into laughter, ¡°I¡¯m afraid you still have your brother. How can you think of becoming a king by yourself or holding the emperor hostage to order the princes?¡±

    "You and I are smart people and there is no need to go through so many doorways." Yang Xiao sneered, "Just tell me what you want to do here today."

    Meng Yao stared blankly at the cute and hateful man laughing at the top of the city, and his heart was filled with excitement. Unexpectedly, his fear of confronting him finally came true.

    Fangxin sighed secretly, and Meng Yao stopped beating around the bush: "Yang-Yang-xiao, I have abandoned the city and surrendered long ago. I-I will never kill anyone in vain."

    "It's ridiculous that the slaughter of the village and the coffin shop in Ji Changheng County was not in vain." Yang Xiao sneered and said, "Let me ask you if the young master of Qin Mansion is in your hands."

    "Yes," Meng Yao said sadly, "Now in our army's tent, I lost the bet with Li Qi."

    "Well, you are so refreshing, you deserve to be a heroine"

    "You can't keep it." Meng Yao didn't feel the slightest pleasure in his praise. He just looked at the resolute man in his dream at the top of the city.

    "Whether we can hold it or not is still unknown," Yang Xiao said confidently.

    Meng Yao shook his head, and moved his fair little hand back, pushing up a huge crossbow, with a black and cold object in the center of the crossbow.

    General Chen and others on the battlements were stunned. The weapon was clearly the "Zhentian Crossbow" invented and designed by Shangguan Chong'er.

    Of course, when everyone was stunned, the sky-shattering crossbow roared towards the city gate with a roar and banged on the city gate, causing the wall and gate to tremble.

    "Your Highness, how can he-they-have a Sky-shattering Crossbow?" Zhao Heizi next to him looked surprised.

    The Sky-shattering Crossbow is powerful. Yang Xiao has long known that it is a good weapon for attacking cities and plundering ponds, no less than the explosive packs of later generations. It is obvious that Gao Wuniang also helped Meng Yao make the weapon when she made it for Shangguan Chongzi.  Some.  Fortunately, the gold casting workshop is now in my own hands.

    ¡°There¡¯s nothing surprising,¡± Yang Xiao said calmly, ¡°How could someone as smart as Meng Yao be unprepared?¡±

    "You should think about it carefully and I will come back tomorrow." Meng Yao looked at Yang Xiao who looked indifferent on the tower, then led the army back to Erlipu on horseback.

    "Your Highness, what should we do now?" General Chen Jian looked worried as he watched Meng Yao leave.

    The city gate, which was originally not the weakest in the defense of the city tower, has now become the most vulnerable link under the threat of the Sky-shattering Crossbow.

    "Instruct the soldiers to dig a big hole inside the city gate overnight and build a moat. If the city gate is broken, it can stop him." Yang Xiao thought for a while.

    "No, Your Highness," Zhao Heizi was the first to object, "This will trap us into a desperate situation. There are moats outside and inside the city, so how can we attack it?"

    "You want to attack?" Yang Xiao looked at him and said, "Twenty thousand guardsmen break out? Where can they break out? How to fight outside? My current goal is to defend the city. The longer the defense is, the better. If we can't hold it all, retreat."  To the south bank of Luoshui River." Yang Xiao said, turning to Chen Jian and saying: "General Chen, please go to Daxing Palace and tell Uncle Zhu and the old emperor to evacuate all the people to the south bank of Luoshui River."

    "This - this -" Chen Jian looked at Yang Xiao in confusion. Daxing Palace still had an inner city to defend, and the south bank of Luoshui was nothing more than a Luoshui River barrier. It was comparable to Daxing Palace.

    "Go," Yang Xiao said calmly, "Just tell them what I say and see what they mean. If they all go, you stay to protect them."

    Chen Jian nodded heavily and led several of his followers to Daxing Palace.

    "Heizi, since you want to attack," Yang Xiao thought for a while and said, "Then let's take two thousand elite soldiers out of the city overnight and retreat to Beimang Mountain, and then circle around the Meng Yao family's flank as a containment."

    &nbsp"This attack method is quite similar to that of the old woman's battle. Liu Xiongwei and hundreds of scouts finally survived.

    "Good" Zhao Heizi is good at offense but not good at defense, so it is inappropriate to put him here.

    "You remember these sixteen words: when the enemy retreats, we advance; when the enemy advances, we retreat; when the enemy is stationed, we harass; when the enemy is tired, we attack."

    Zhao Heizi¡¯s eyes widened when he heard this. Who said His Highness Changsun was not a god?

    Watching Zhao Heizi leave happily, Dong Xiangyun looked back and stared at Yang Xiao. All the useful relatives and followers around him were gone. It was not necessary to mention the risks involved if he had to defend the city by himself.

    "Don't you need their help? After all, they are also the commanders of the Imperial Guards." Dong Xiangyun looked at him with burning eyes.

    Yang Xiao smiled lightly and said: "We are dedicated to guarding the city. With my eldest grandson here, how can we not compare with them in the hearts of the people?"

    Dong Xiangyun nodded. The Meng Yao clan attacked the city in several directions without troops. It was just because they were too confident that they were sure of success, so there was nothing special about defending the city.

    "Let's go down and see if we can dig a bigger area near the city gate." Yang smiled and took the lead to the stairs of the city tower.

    In the early morning of the next day, as the red sun rose above the horizon, Meng Yao led 30,000 troops into a giant square array and lined up outside the city.  More than ten sky-shaking crossbows were lined up in a row, aiming at the city gate.

    All soldiers who have seen the power of the Sky-shaking Crossbow know that once these ten or so Sky-shaking Crossbows hit the city gate, the city gate will immediately become a huge fan.

    Meng Yao was still fully armed, riding a tall horse and Wen Tailai stood in the middle of the army early.

    ¡°Girl, there¡¯s no news from the general so far?¡± Wen Tailai said worriedly.

    "Have you been sent here to see it?" Meng Yao frowned and said, "Donglingguan is weak and should have arrived earlier than us. Could it be that something went wrong?"

    "We sent someone last night and they haven't come back yet. However, at noon yesterday, the scouts reported that the general had left camp early. There shouldn't be any problems on the way. Why don't you wait?"

    "No wait," Meng Yao said calmly, "Can't a hundred thousand troops break through this city gate? Come on, let's go meet him."

    The two men drove their horses to the front, looking at Yang Xiao who was still sitting on the tower, and said loudly: "Yang - Yang - Xiao, abandon your troops and surrender as soon as possible. I - I will never hurt a single soldier."

    Yang Xiao shook his head and smiled lightly: "There is absolutely no way that the word surrender is not in my dictionary. I want to see how you fight your way into the city." After Yang Xiao finished speaking, he turned to Dong Xiangyun and whispered softly, "I'll see in a moment.  I gestured and pointed all the Sky-shattering Crossbows at their Sky-shattering Crossbows. I will count as many as I can destroy."

    Meng Yao had been getting along with him for a long time. The Meng Mansion Courtyard in Changheng County had already learned about his nature. He didn't say anything more this time. He just turned to Wen Tai beside him and said, don't hurt his life, and then turned around.  He got off his horse and headed towards the Chinese army.

    After Wen Tailai was startled, he drew out the long sword from his waist, pointed to the sky and shouted: "The crossbow soldiers are ready, facing the city gate"

    Yang Xiao didn't wait for Wen Tai to speak, he had already made a gesture, and the thundering crossbow iron gun on the city tower had already roared and fired towards the outside of the city.

    Several streaks of light rushed toward the sky-shattering crossbow placed by Meng Yao with faint thunder.

    Start up first, and then get stuffed

    "Boom - Boom - Boom -" Three or four Sky-shaking Crossbows suddenly fell into pieces. At the same time, several unhit Sky-shaking Crossbows in Meng Yao's army also made loud noises and attacked the city gate.

    Boom boom boom¡ª¡ª

    The loud noise of the city gate caused a turbulence on the ground. The ten-foot-high gate collapsed with a burst of thunder, and was as weak as paper.

    ¡°Hahaha¡ª¡ª¡± Wen Tailai laughed, and waved his sword again, ¡°Brothers, charge forward.¡±

    "Come on!" The deafening sound came like thunder.

    The heads moved like ants swarming over.

    By the time the siege troops were within firing range of the crossbows, the Imperial Guards on the tower had already fired their crossbows, and arrows rained down from the sky. The screams and wails were heart-piercing and shook the sky.

    The moat was gradually filled with corpses, and the red blood slowly soaked the river water red.  Wave after layer of attacks were swarming towards the city gate.

    There was no suspense. In less than an hour, Meng Yao's army had covered the moat and entered the city gate.

    ?Thousands of people rushed in, but they all fell into the huge hole dug in the inner city last night, leaving their limbs broken and bones broken.

    The thousands of Imperial Guards waiting at the edge of the pit had already drawn their bows and fired crossbows at the pit, one after another as if they were filling the pit.

    After a while, Meng Yao's 100,000-strong army had lost as many as 20,000, but was blocked between the city gates.

    Hearing the cries of mourning in the city, but there was still no panic on the top of the city, Wen Tailai was a little surprised, as if the soldiers were like tigers.The mouth usually goes away but never comes back.

    ¡°Boom¡ªboom¡ªboom¡ª¡±

    Suddenly, several loud noises erupted from the city gate, and then dozens of "sky-shattering crossbows" roared out from the city gate with abnormal whistles. Each black iron gun took away dozens of people.  Hundreds of lives.

    It was a tragic scene with blood splashing and corpses flying everywhere.

    Wen Tailai was panicked. In such a siege, a hundred thousand troops might not be able to fill it.

    He quickly ran to Meng Yao's side to ask for countermeasures.

    Meng Yao thought that she had also seen this. She never expected that the lover in her heart would indeed use strange tactics. If you want to attack the city gate, you can attack it. I only need to hold the city gate and it will be like a man guarding the gate.

    "Order the troops to retreat," Meng Yao said calmly.

    ¡°Dong¡ªdong¡ªdong¡ª¡± the drums sounded, and the surging Huainan soldiers retreated like a tide of ants.

    Seeing that the Huainan Army, which was said to be an army of 100,000, was forced to retreat by himself, the Imperial Guards on the tower suddenly let out a burst of cheers. Yang Xiao frowned deeply as he looked at the Huainan Army advancing and retreating in an orderly manner.  .
