It's just that Kebi Neng's strength increased greatly after annexing other Xianbei tribes.
Bu Dugen's troops were no match for Ke Bineng and were beaten back and forth.
When Gongsun Yuan asked Xianbei for help, Kebineng had not yet decided the winner with Bu Dugen, so he did not come to support him.
Although Bu Dugen's troops were severely damaged at the moment, Kebineng would not dare to attack rashly without cutting them off.
This is why Yang Ling can be sure that the Xianbei people will not support Goguryeo.
"There is no need to worry about Xianbei. From tomorrow on, we will prepare to attack the city!"
Yang Ling said in a deep voice.
"Here!"
Everyone responded in unison.
…
After the Huns fell apart, the Xianbei people rose up and occupied Mobei, becoming the largest ethnic group in the north.
From the perspective of the throne palace, now that Ke Bineng is the strongest among Xianbei, no matter what, Cao Wei must have some face from the Xianbei people, right?
He calmed down a little and continued drinking and having fun.
At this moment, a military general ran in in a panic,
"Your Majesty, it's bad! Cao Wei's army...is coming!"
Wei Gong was stunned for a moment before he realized what he was doing, and he was immediately shocked.
"What?! Where is Xianbei's envoy?"
"We don't know either!"
The general said with a mournful face.
Didn't Ju Luohou go to see Yang Ling? Why was there no movement at all?
Wei Gong panicked, quickly stood up, and led a group of men towards the city wall.
When he came to the top of the city and looked out, he suddenly took a breath of cold air.
I saw that the densely packed Cao Wei army had arrived at Heshenggu City.
They did not rush to attack, but spread out and surrounded the city!
Cao Wei plans to surround himself here and die!
Wei Gong was panicked at this moment and said quickly,
"Someone, go and invite Da Duilu!"
"Have you forgotten, Your Majesty? Da Duilu... was driven back to the royal city by you!"
The attendant on the side said cautiously.
Wei Gong then remembered that a few days ago, Pei Zhe De Lai was driven away from this place because he offended him.
This is good, there is no one to offer advice!
Looking at the shocking Wei army outside the city, Wei Gong felt sincerely afraid.
If this battle fails, I am afraid that my life will not be saved!
He stopped pretending and looked at his subordinates expectantly.
"Do you have any plans?"
Everyone looked at each other.
After a while, someone stood up and said,
"Your Majesty, the Chinese art of war says to surround an enemy ten times."
"The Wei army outside the city now has only 100,000 soldiers and horses."
"If we organize all the soldiers and civilians, there will be at least 50,000 people."
"There is enough food and grass in the city, and we have the advantage of defending the city. Why do we need to worry about the Wei army?"
His words made sense and won the approval of some Goguryeo generals.
But if others don’t know how powerful the Wei army is, how can they not know the position of the palace?
He had heard that the Wei army had a sharp weapon called artillery.
No matter how strong the city wall is, it cannot withstand artillery bombardment.
Seeing the worry on Wei Gong's face, another person suggested,
"The king might as well send an envoy to see Cao Wei's general and tell him that we intend to surrender."
"Come to test Cao Wei's attitude, and also inquire about the whereabouts of Marquis Juluo."
Wei Gong nodded slightly,
"You are right, I will do as you say!"
He immediately waved to two ministers and asked them to visit Yang Ling.
The two ministers who were named cursed secretly in their hearts, but they did not dare to disobey the palace's order.
The two of them could only follow the palace's instructions, take the hanging basket to the outside of the city, and walk towards Cao Wei's camp holding a white flag.
Seeing the two of them entering the Wei camp, Wei Gong breathed a sigh of relief.
It seems that Cao Wei is still interested in peace talks.
If it doesn't work, just admit it yourself.
Anyway, Liaodong is remote, and Cao Wei's army was stationed here for a short time.
After they withdraw their troops, the Xianbei people will free their hands and it will not be too late for them to rebel.
While the palace was thinking about it, one of the two ministers suddenly walked out of the Wei camp with an extra baggage in his hand.
The other person was nowhere to be seen.
What's going on?
Could it be that Yang Ling wanted to negotiate peace, leaving one person behind and letting the other person respond to him?
The palace had some doubts in his heart, so he quickly asked someone to put down the hanging basket and bring the minister up.
"Your Majesty, Wei Jun... said that he would... massacre the city!"
The minister looked pale and shook the bundle out of his hands.
I saw a human head rolling down to the ground. It was another minister!
It turned out that after they entered the Wei camp, Yang Ling had no intention of talking nonsense and directly ordered the other person to be chopped off.
Let this minister come back and ask him to bring a message to the palace.
"Yang Ling said, let the king... wash his neck and wait for death!"
As soon as these words came out, Wei Gong was angry and anxious!
What a Yang Ling, you really don’t take this king seriously!
Okay, the worst case scenario is that the fish will die and the net will fall apart!
With a fierce look in his eyes, Wei Gong said to everyone present,
"You have all heard it, right? The Wei people are planning to massacre the city!"
"Spread this matter in the city and tell the people that if they want to survive, they will all come to help me defend the city!"
Everyone quickly took the order and left.
In less than an hour, all the soldiers and civilians in Heshenggu City knew that the Wei army was going to massacre the city!
Under the call of the throne palace, they came to the top of the city one after another, sharing the same hatred and vowing to live and die with the city.
Seeing this, Wei Gong breathed a sigh of relief.
Yang Ling, I want you to know the price of despising me!
The Wei army was in formation.
Looking at the Goguryeo people on the city wall, Yang Ling showed a sneer, turned around and said,
"How are the preparations going?"
"Reporting to His Highness King Qi, we are ready!"
Zhao Yun replied.
"Very good, let's start attacking the city! Tell the soldiers that after the city is broken, you can plunder as you like!"
Yang Ling said calmly.
"Here!"
Zhao Yun took the order and left.
"Rumble..."
The heavy sound of drums resounded between heaven and earth.
The first to be dispatched was not the artillery in the Wei army, but the air force.
I saw more than a dozen hot air balloons taking off from the Wei army camp!
Seeing the monster flying in the sky, not to mention the soldiers and civilians of Goguryeo, even the palace was dumbfounded.
What is this thing, and how can it fly into the sky?
Before they could react, a dozen hot air balloons had already flown over their heads!
The Wei soldiers in the hanging basket lit the prepared kerosene bombs and then threw them down towards He Shenggu below.
"Crash..."
Countless clay pots fell from the heads of Goguryeo people like dumplings, and cracked in Heshenggu City.
The burning fire oil spread in all directions.
Goguryeo's productivity was limited, and most of the domestic buildings were wooden houses.
As long as one of them is ignited, a large area will instantly become a sea of fire!
Seeing this situation, the Goguryeo people on the city wall instantly became anxious!
They came to the city to kill the enemy, but their families were still in the city.
Before Wei Gong and others could react, the people left the city and ran towards the city.
