Wearing armor, Lu Wei rode a tall and healthy horse from the Western Regions, and ordered more than ten thousand Imperial Forest troops to head towards the north gate of Fengjing City with the symbol of a tiger.

Although the Imperial Forest Army is small in number, they are all composed of elites from the royal family and noble families. Their interests are glorious, and their family relatives are connected with the blood of Da Mu. They are a team that can fight to the death without retreating.

It was also this night, the only stubborn resistance that the Northern Xinjiang army might encounter.

At this time, the news of the soldiers approaching the city had not yet spread, and it was the curfew time, so the city was very quiet, only the sound of horseshoes hitting the bluestone slabs could be heard.

Under the silver lion helmet, Lu Wei's thin lips slightly curved.

Looking at the situation, the father and younger brother have already controlled all the people and officials in the city according to the plan.

Avoiding unnecessary casualties is very good and fits his aesthetics.

Lu Wei galloped all the way to the north gate and looked down.In the dark night, there are countless torches gathered here, spreading to far, far away like a long dragon.

Qi Shang, the commander of the imperial forest army, stood beside Lu Wei with the sword on his waist, and cast a distrustful look at Lu Wei.

According to Qi Shang's knowledge, Lu Wei died in the imperial prison half a year ago.It was his tragic death that led to the disintegration of the Xunchen Party.

But half a year later, Lu Wei stood in front of him alive again, holding in his hand the tiger amulet commanding the Imperial Forest Army and held by the emperor.And the Northern Xinjiang army approaching the city... had inextricably linked with Lu Wei.

No matter how you think about it, Lu Wei is very suspicious.

Qi Shang has already made up his mind that if Lu Wei issued suspicious orders such as opening the city gate and tried his best to disobey the Tiger Talisman, he would also kill Lu Wei on the spot.

"Commander Qi, it seems that the northern Xinjiang army is all gathered here." Lu Wei looked away and looked at Qi Shang.

"Yes." Qi Shang also saw the scale of the torches under the city, and they should have 20 people. He agreed with Lu Wei, "Looking at the situation, they should wait until dawn before launching a general attack."

Lu Wei nodded, and said: "They have a lot of people, we can't fight them head-on, we can only stick to the city, and at the same time report the news quickly, waiting for the general soldiers from Jingzhou, Yuzhou and Yangzhou to come to help."

"As long as Fengjing City can defend for ten days, it will no longer fall into a passive situation. At this time, before they launch a general attack, we have to strengthen the city walls and gates overnight."

Qi Shang watched Lu Wei methodically speak out the strategy against the enemy, and froze in place.

Holding the tiger talisman commanding the Imperial Forest Army, Lu Wei not only did not give the order to open the city gates, but instead went to strengthen the city walls and gates, making full plans to defend the city against the enemy.

Could it be that Lu Wei really had nothing to do with this rebellion, did he blame Lu Wei by mistake?

Seeing this, Lu Wei patted Qi Shang who was in a daze, and said softly: "Go, ten days will pass soon, the emperor is still in Fengjing City, we can only win this battle, not lose."

"I hope that after ten days, Lu will be lucky enough to have a drink with Commander Qi at the celebration banquet."

Qi Shang saw that Lu Wei was open-minded and behaved like a gentleman, he couldn't help feeling ashamed in his heart, he cupped his fists as a courtesy and said, "Yes!"

Then, they hurried down to deploy and arrange for the Royal Forest Army to strengthen the city wall and report the news.

Lu Wei stood on the tall city wall of Fengjing City, looking at Qi Shang's leaving back.The night wind blew the long white tassels on his lion helmet, and the sharp light of a predator shone in his star eyes.

Commander Qi... is really a simple-minded, straightforward and lovely person.

……

The Imperial Forest Army was busy, reinforcing the city gates and walls in the middle of the night. Before dawn, the Northern Xinjiang army attacked the city, but they waited for a half-dyeing messenger soldier.

"Report! Report!!" As soon as the messenger got off his horse, the horse foamed at the mouth and fell to the ground, while he yelled, rolling and crawling on the ground, "We have been tricked! The south gate has been opened by the insiders. They, they Come in from the south gate!!"

Lu Wei looked at the messenger and clicked his tongue in his heart.

The Royal Forest Army is full of elite children from high-ranking and wealthy families. This messenger soldier is only sixteen or seventeen years old, and he still has a bit of a childish look on his body. Even if he is allowed to come back to report the news, the play is going to be real, and there is no need to be so serious. hand.

It looks terrible.

But there was a shocked expression on his face, "What, what?! How could this be?!"

Looking to the side again, Qi Shang also showed a panicked and shocked expression on his face.

It's just that Lu Wei's reaction was pretended, but Qi Shang's was a real reaction.

At this time, the morning light was twilight, and the torches under the city revealed their true colors.

There was no one outside the north city gate, only a large number of camouflaged tents, and the torches tied to countless trees and bamboo poles were burning with embers.

They really fell for it!

"His Royal Highness... what should we do now?" After spending most of the night together, Qi Shang completely believed in Lu Wei, and even began to feel dependent on him psychologically.

Lu Wei, as a self-made president and a popular battlefield fighter, has strong control leadership and charisma, and it is easy for him to gain Qi Shang's trust.

"There are only two ways to go." Lu Wei took a deep breath, and pointed his slender index finger outside the North City, "Escape from Fengjing immediately, and find a way out."

Immediately afterwards, he pointed in the direction of Nancheng, "Swear to the death to fight to the death of the emperor."

Lu Wei was used to speaking in the army, and his voice was clear and clear. At this moment, there was silence around him, and almost every imperial guard could hear him clearly.

After a while, someone in the Royal Forest Army shouted: "Even if we fight to the death, we will not be able to rescue the emperor in time, let alone defend Fengjing. We will just lay down our lives in vain and make unnecessary sacrifices, isn't that right?"

Hearing this, Qi Shang glanced at the soldier shouting, and said loudly: "What are you talking about, are we afraid of death?!"

"Commander Qi, we are not afraid of death, but we are afraid that death will not be what we deserve!" The soldier blushed and roared, "If there is even a little hope, why should we be afraid of dying in battle! Commander Qi, for the sake of the so-called honor, Do you want us all to lose our lives?!"

Lu Wei saw that there was a disagreement within the Imperial Forest Army as expected, and the corners of his lips curled up inconspicuously, and he stepped forward and said: "The grace of the emperor should be repaid, and life is also precious. This is a dilemma."

"Since this is the case, those who are willing to die in the city to repay the emperor, follow me. Those who are willing to go out of the city to find a way out, open the city gate and go."

For Lu Wei's proposal, no one has any further comments.As a result, the [-] Yulin Army quickly divided into two groups.

Survivors accounted for the vast majority, more than 1 people.On Lu Wei's side, there are only less than 3000 people.

Of course, Qi Shang, the commander of the Royal Forest Army, stood by Lu Wei's side from the beginning to the end.

Seeing this situation, Lu Wei sighed and said to the more than 1 people: "After I leave with Commander Qi, you can open the city gate and go."

As he expected, human nature tends, and in this situation, survivors should account for the vast majority.But such a huge disparity in proportion still made him a little disappointed with the Royal Forest Army, which claimed to fight to the death.

After Lu Wei finished speaking, he rode on his tall and healthy horse and headed towards the south gate without looking back.

Followed closely behind are three thousand soldiers with the heart of serving the country with death.

The author has something to say: think about it. . .

Because I want to abuse the emperor quickly~~

But the concubine can't do it, hey.

Mr. Lu is still a strong and kind man who looks forward to world peace today.
