The system forced me to be emperor

Prince He nodded, and took a deep look at Wei Jiangjun.

His elder brother is the right minister Wei Nanzheng, if he doesn't cheat you, who will he cheat!

After explaining, Prince He returned to the government office.

Although Prince He is leading the general this time, in fact, this is Wei Nanzheng's trick. Qi Huang also wants to use Prince He's reputation to disgust Xia Guo at the same time.

But at the same time, Emperor Qi was also worried that Prince He would defect to the enemy and betray the country. After all, he had a very close relationship with Xia, so Prince He had no actual military power. If he arranged some strategies that were not good for Qi, the generals under him would definitely not agree.

Of course, it is necessary to obey the favorable things, such as the grain harvest this time is a good thing.

Outside the city of Liaoyuan, Champion Hou's army remained stationary. On the other side, Li Cunxiao and Yang Youji led [-] troops to go north and conquer another city.

Champion Hou saw the impatience of the generals under his command, and his eyes shifted to Liaoyuan City.

There are two important military sites in the south of Qi State, one is Fengtian, and the other is Liaoyuan. The two cities are located on the central axis of the south of the capital of the Qi Emperor, like two gates.

Take Fengtian City and sit there, and you can control the area to the south.

If you take Liaoyuan and sit here, you can go north to directly attack the imperial capital of Qi, and go south to control two-thirds of Qi. You can advance, attack, retreat and defend. This is another reason why the champion Hou is bound to win Liaoyuan City.

During this period of time, Daxia's soldiers and horses were unstoppable. According to his temper, even if Liaoyuan City was difficult to attack, he would take it at any cost, so as not to let Daxia's momentum fail.

The reason why we only besiege the city now and not attack it by force is all because of the secret letter sent by the crown prince.

In the letter, His Royal Highness told him not to attack by force, there is a way to take Liaoyuan City with less loss, and the key is Prince He.

Champion Hou knew that although Prince He was a general in charge of the army, he was actually held in vain and had no actual right to lead the army. Who among the five generals under him would listen to him.

Moreover, Prince He is a native of Qi after all, and he also cherishes his reputation. In his later years, if he really seeks refuge in Da Xia, he will be collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country. I believe he is unwilling to bear the infamy.So how will Prince He help?

Just last night, the scouts he sent to investigate under the city received the arrow feathers shot from the city. There was a note on the arrow, saying that the city was collecting grain for unified management. Seeing this news, the Champion Hou understood that Prince He Thoughtful and scheming.

What would happen if the grain depot in Liaoyuan City caught fire and all the grain was burned?

This is all the food reserves of the people in the city, all of them are gone, and only a little surplus food left by the people's families according to the head of the people is left, what is there enough for!

Once the food is exhausted, this fortified city of Liaoyuan will be a dead city. At that time, the Qi army will definitely not defend it to the death, but will escape from the north gate by surprise.

So after getting the news, Champion Hou immediately dispatched his troops at night, letting some of the army lie in ambush ten miles north of the official road in Liaoyuan City, and the soldiers and horses outside the other three city gates remained calm to avoid being attacked by the Qi army in Liaoyuan City. Found clues.

Then it will be up to Prince He.

It was night, just as the moon was going down, and it was covered by dark clouds, the moon was dark and the stars were sparse.

Over the years, Prince He has also secretly cultivated a group of dead men, and today is the time to use them.

At the end of the ugly era, the soldiers in Liaoyuan City were all exhausted. Prince He gave an order, and more than 100 dead soldiers were dispatched.

They were originally from the Qi army, and Prince He had already forged the pass badge, saying that he was ordered to inspect and then entered the granary smoothly.

Although General Wei, who was in charge of guarding the granary, sent additional manpower to increase the strength of guards and patrols, it was impossible for this General Wei to guard the granary himself.And those patrolling soldiers couldn't even think of it. This group of bossy inspecting soldiers came to set the fire.

In this way, the dead man approached the granary and opened the granary for "supervision".Then they poured in the oil they had with them, and ignited the grain.

The grain cellar is full of dry grain, which is the best combustible material. When it encounters fire, it will burn directly, and the fire will become larger in an instant.

More than a dozen grain cellars were lit at the same time, and it didn't take long for the flames to ignite, illuminating the sky above the grain.

The fire attracted the patrolling soldiers, who hurriedly beat gongs and drums, shouting "fire escape", but at this time, those dead soldiers dressed in full soldiers violently killed people, and there was a sudden chaos.

The Qi army who came to put out the fire was in chaos in an instant. They were all wearing the same uniforms, and it was dark again. It was impossible to tell who was the enemy in the chaotic fight. Some soldiers were wary of the people around them in order to avoid fighting.

And just this delay made the fire in the grain cellar even bigger.

The fire was getting bigger and bigger, lighting up the sky, and more and more soldiers heard the news and rushed to fight the fire, causing chaos on the scene.

The fire also attracted Champion Hou from outside the city. Champion Hou had already ordered his soldiers to prepare at night, so the soldiers of Daxia put on their clothes and slept, quietly waiting for the horn to sound.

"Boom boom boom..."

Suddenly, the four battalions stationed outside the city sounded drums at the same time, and the drums sounded to indicate an attack!The Great Xia general who had been waiting for a long time immediately led his subordinates to attack the city.

The city of Liaoyuan was busy fighting the fire, and the news of Daxia's attack suddenly came. The five generals of Qi State cursed again and again, and then went to the city to fight.

Attacking the city late at night, Daxia's offensive method has been adjusted.The champion Hou had already ordered people to prepare earth bags for filling the trenches, and solved the first line of defense prepared by Qi State.

Then the burning oilcloth trembled on the crossbow arrows, and then all the arrows were fired into Liaoyuan City.

The gunpowder concocted by the trebuchet is also flammable fuel. After hitting the bunker made of wood in the city, it exploded and ignited, and it burned instantly.

At the end of autumn, the weather was dry and the weather was dry. This time, Champion Hou used fire to attack the city, which was just as good as the burning grain cellar.

The attack continued until the early hours of the morning, and several streets and thousands of houses were burned down near the four city gates. The entire sky was filled with black smoke and fire, and it was a mess.

It's a pity that the city walls are all piled up with bluestones, and there is nothing to burn when the towers are burned down, but the wooden bunkers are almost burned.

At dawn, Champion Hou's attack officially began.

At this time, the ladder was launched, and the Daxia soldiers began to attack the city.

The panicked general of Qi State led the even more panicked Qi army to defend the city and began to defend the city.

Liaoyuan City, which is blooming on all sides, fell into a great panic, especially when the grain cellars were burned. Only five of the dozen or so grain cellars were extinguished, and the grain in these five cellars was almost burned. City, repelled Xia Jun's attack, and they also became shackles.

How can we eat without food?Without food, where is the strength, if you don't have the strength to go up the tower, you are courting death!

How to do?

Panic was spreading, and some people wanted to survive.

Don't forget, there are 10,000+ soldiers in the Qi army who were recruited by rebels. They used to be refugees. They were rebels in order to live on enough to eat, and they were recruited to live on enough to eat. Just run away!

Here comes the question, where to escape?

There are four gates in the southeast, northwest, and the back of your head, you know if you want to flee to the north, are you going to be a prisoner if you flee to the south?

So a wonderful scene happened at the North City Gate.

Xia Jun outside the city wanted to go in, and Qi Jun inside the city wanted to come out.

It turns out that the city gates are easier to open from the inside than from the outside!

The Qi army who was once a traitor actually opened the north gate of Liaoyuan City and rushed out.

Daxia's soldiers and horses were still on the ladders, and they were still attacking the city on the stairs. The rams had already been brought in, and the city gates were opened before they hit, and then a large number of Qi troops fled out of the city in a hurry.

In the back, more and more people poured out of the city, and then fled.The soldiers of Daxia retreated quickly and stopped attacking the city. They lined up for defense and watched them run wildly like refugees.
