Unparalleled Concubine

"Even if we can't eat Hanzhou before the beginning of spring, the Hanzhou army will be damaged seven or eighty-eight times, and it will be disabled if it doesn't die. When the time comes, Pei Jin and the Grand Duke will return to Beijing to accept the crime."

Xiao Zheng was a young eunuch who was born in Prince Wei's mansion. Although he has become a great eunuch in the palace in the past eight years, he is good at dealing with people and tricks, but he knows nothing about fighting. He coughed and looked at Pei. Jin Jin said: "The general can really win Hanzhou before the spring begins?"

Pei Jin half-kneeled in front of Xiao Zheng, and said in a low voice: "I am willing to issue a military order!"

Xiao Zheng hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

"The general will let go of it."

"Our family and Xiao Huai are waiting here for the good news from the general, and we will return to Beijing with the general in triumph."

Pei Jin stood up from the ground, and gave Xiao Zheng a deep bow.

"Thank you Grand Duke for fulfilling it."

After saying this, he got up and walked out.

And Xiao Zheng and Xiao Huai both watched Pei Jin's back.

"Godfather, do you think this General Pei can win or not?"

Xiao Huai bent over and squeezed Xiao Zheng's shoulders behind him.

Xiao Zheng picked up the tea on the table, lowered his head and took a sip, then put down the teacup with a frown because he disliked the inferior tea.

"Our family doesn't understand, but seeing his confident face, it seems like that."

Speaking of this, Xiao Zheng took a deep breath, thinking of the young man who used to drink tea and wine in Wei Wang's mansion back then.

"But, that Marquis Li is really amazing..."

………………

Pei Jin, who was separated from Xiao Zheng, immediately gathered all the middle and high-level generals of the entire army together in another tent. This general who had led the Imperial Army for 20 years had a serious expression on his face.

"listen."

He shouted in a low voice: "From today on, we will cut down nearby wood, make catapults, ladders and other siege equipment, and select suitable stones from the nearby mountains, and send them to Hanzhou city one after another!"

Pei Jin glanced around at these temporary subordinates, his voice was cold.

"After seven days, start storming Hanzhou City!"

As soon as these words came out, the faces of these generals all changed.

The so-called strong attack means regardless of casualties, regardless of life or death, as long as there is no Mingjin, they will rush forward and charge towards the city wall.

To put it nicely, it's called a strong attack, but to put it badly, it's just taking human lives to fill it.

These lives are not exchanged for the lives of the Hanzhou Army, but for the defense materials of the Hanzhou Army, such as arrows, hot oil, rolling stones, and golden juice.

The city of Hanzhou is so big, there can't be too many materials for defending the city, as long as these materials are used up, the city will naturally be unable to defend.

This is the most primitive, simple, and brutal method of siege.

But there was no other way. At this moment, Pei Jin had no other choice.

These generals all stood up with dignified expressions, and saluted Pei Jin with fists cupped.

"The last general is waiting..."

"As ordered!"

Chapter 753 Will You Kill Me?

At the beginning of December in the eighth year of Taikang.

Even in the southwest, the weather is quite cold. Li Xin is wearing a leather robe at the moment, and together with Ye Mao on Chenglou in Hanzhou City, watching the dense imperial army gradually approaching from outside the city .

Standing behind Li Xin, Mu Ying was dressed in iron armor, and took a deep breath.

"I'm afraid... 3 to [-] people will attack the city this time."

Li Xin took a few glances through the binoculars, and let out a breath of white air.

"There are 3 people, but the city of Hanzhou is not big, and it is impossible for these 3 people to climb the city wall at the same time."

With that said, Li Xin looked back at Mu Ying.

"Can you hold on?"

"In a short period of time, there is no problem."

Mu Ying said in a deep voice: "It's just the stones on the city wall, the boiling oil and other supplies for defending the city. I'm afraid it won't last long."

Li Xin narrowed his eyes, and said slowly: "Pei Jin sent so many people over in one breath, obviously he was in a hurry, this time he will probably use the most violent attack to attack the city, Brother Mu, I need you to help me defend Three days."

When Mu Ying heard this, she patted her chest and said with a smile: "Since Hanzhou was besieged, the Mu family has been making preparations, so there will be no problem in three days."

Li Xin said slowly: "Should guard the city for three days, it is a careful guard."

"On the first day, fight normally, fight as you want, and throw anything on the city wall. It's best to hurt these imperial troops and make them fearful."

Seeing that the imperial troops were approaching, Li Xin continued: "But from the second day on, it is no longer possible to throw boiling oil, stones, and gold juice on the city wall on a large scale. , and let it go less.”

Mu Ying pondered the meaning of Li Xin's words for a while, then nodded and said: "My subordinates probably understand what Master Hou means!"

Li Xin said in a deep voice: "The most dangerous thing is that when defending the city on the third day, brother Mu has to act as if the city is exhausted and will not be able to hold on any longer. He must barely hold Hanzhou City."

Mu Ying hesitated.

"That way, the Hanzhou Army will die a lot."

Li Xin looked calm, and said slowly: "If you don't do this, more people will die. Brother Mu, you have to believe me."

Mu Ying nodded heavily, and was about to speak when seeing people from outside the city rushing towards him, he took a deep breath, gritted his teeth and said, "Master Hou, I'm going to defend the city first, the city wall is dangerous, I will Let someone send you down!"

This time Li Xin didn't hesitate, and simply retreated from the city wall.

Not long after he walked down the city wall, he heard the sound of shouting and killing from behind. Li Xin expressionless, rode on his black horse and walked towards a manor in the city.

Soon, he stopped his horse at the gate of the manor and walked in. This place is far away from the city wall, and the sound of killing outside could not be heard clearly. After walking a few steps in the manor, he saw the man resting in the middle of the garden. Lin Hu.

Lord Jing'an walked behind Lin Hu and smiled slightly.

"Huzi, is your injury better?"

That day when they entered the city together, Li Xin killed five or six people with his sword, while Lin Hu shot and killed nearly 20 people with an ox horn bow. After pulling away dozens of times, when entering the city, not only was the finger of his right hand covered with blood, but both arms were shaking.
