Chen Heng didn't sleep all night.
Really can't sleep.
The bloody battle at Changui Gate during the day is still vivid in my mind.
As long as he closed his eyes, his mind would be filled with scenes of soldiers fighting in bloody battles.
This condition was later known as postwar traumatic stress syndrome.
Although Chen Heng fought in battles all his life, they were not as dangerous as the Zhangyimen battle.
Not only did he personally fight Qu Neng with his sword, but he was also prepared to die at any time.
The result was unimaginable. Li Jinglong would be so stupid as to withdraw his troops at the request of gold.
There are so many twists and turns that Chen Heng still can't figure it out until now.
Since he couldn't sleep, Chen Heng simply patrolled the city defense and performed his last duty.
Suddenly, he heard a commotion ahead.
what happened?
Could it be that the enemy troops are attacking the city again?
Chen Heng didn't have time to think too much and rushed over in a hurry.
However, the next moment, the famous general felt that his brain was not enough.
I saw a group of soldiers gathering together, talking happily, as if there was some big happy event, and from time to time the cheers of the soldiers could be heard.
What's going on here?
Chen Heng suppressed the anger in his heart and asked in a low voice: "What are you doing?"
When all the soldiers saw the visitor, they all bowed and saluted.
"General, it's done!"
"Yes, General, it's a miracle!"
The soldiers explained happily.
Chen Heng was even more confused.
Until he looked along the line of sight of the soldiers, his pupils suddenly shrank!
I saw layers of thin ice forming on the city wall they had repaired overnight!
And as the cold wind howls, the thickness of the ice layer continues to increase.
Chen Heng immediately called two soldiers and climbed up the battlement with their help. However, his foot slipped and he almost lost his footing and fell directly.
"General!"
"Be careful, General!"
Chen Heng made a fool of himself. Instead of getting angry, he looked up to the sky and laughed.
"Hahaha……"
"A miracle! It's really a miracle!"
"Su Sheng's plan is so unpredictable!"
At this moment, Chen Heng finally understood why Su Sheng asked them to draw water to water the city wall!
The temperature dropped suddenly tonight. In the cold weather, it can be said that drops of water turned into ice. This water formed an ice layer on the city wall. If the enemy tried to climb up through the ladder, they would only be smashed into meat patties!
Furthermore, with this ice defense, the lethality of enemy artillery will be greatly reduced!
Use water to irrigate and protect the city with ice. This is Sault Ste.'s plan!
Su Yang, Su Yang, who are you? You are so terrifying!
The Yan army has Su Sheng's help, so why worry about not succeeding?
"God bless King Yan! God bless Beiping!"
Chen Heng shouted, and the soldiers also burst into deafening cheers.
For a time, Yan Jun's morale was greatly boosted, as if he saw hope of continuing to hold on!
Overjoyed, Chen Heng reacted immediately.
The ice layer is still very thin, and it is still somewhat insufficient to withstand enemy artillery.
"Pass my military order to continue watering the city wall. Everyone must not slack off and work hard!"
The soldiers also recovered from their joy and continued their task of fetching water for irrigation.
Chen Heng happily found Zhu Gaochi and others. Since I couldn't sleep, everyone stopped sleeping and got up to have fun together.
Zhu Gaochi looked at Chen Heng with dull eyes and scolded the guy a few times, but considering the current situation in Peiping, he gave up the idea.
In this short period of time, everyone has been exhausted and finally got some free rest, but was disturbed by this guy.
As you can imagine, everyone's eyes were somewhat unkind.
But Chen Heng didn't take it seriously, and instead showed a happy smile.
"Everyone, great things have happened!"
Zhu Gaochi was stunned when he heard this, and then asked with joy on his face: "What does General Chen Heng mean by this? Could it be that my father has led troops to return for reinforcements?"
"Ahem, that's not true!" Chen Heng laughed twice.
Everyone looked at him with speechless faces. If it weren't for the time when they were employing people, they would really want to teach him how to behave!
"It's Su Sheng's plan that succeeded!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned for a moment, and then looked confused.
Chen Heng didn't bother to explain and took them directly to the top of the city. Seeing it with his own eyes was far more convincing than listening to other people's explanations.
Zhu Gaochi looked at the ice on the city wall, couldn't help rubbing his eyes, and then made a crazy noise.
"I knew it!"
"I knew Su Yang would never trick me!"
Zhang Bing and Jin Zhong were also filled with admiration, and their admiration for Su Sheng reached a higher level.
Only Monk Dao Yan had a complicated expression. He looked at the ice and was speechless for a long time.
He thought that after learning the knowledge imparted by Su Sheng, he should not be far from the realm of Su Sheng.
But now Dao Yan understands that there is still a long way to go between them, and it is even difficult to compare!
Since Dao Yan was born, why should Su Yang be born?
"Draw water!"
“Everyone go get water!”
"Gather the people in the city and water the entire city wall!"
Zhu Gaochi immediately ordered that he saw hope of defending Peiping!
Su Yang gave him this glimmer of hope, so he should hold on tightly!
Following the order from Prince Yan, the entire city of Beiping took action again.
Even Zhu Gaochi himself was not idle, but rushed to the city with buckets of water.
If Prince Yan is like this, the soldiers and the people naturally don't dare to be lazy and work harder and harder!
Most of them don't know why they do this. There is only one name that continues to circulate in Beiping City.
That name is Su Yang!
At the same time, the Jinling Imperial Capital.
Zhu Yunwen strode into the imperial prison.
Given his status, he shouldn't have come to such a dirty place.
But Zhu Yunwen came here today, and he was still smiling.
It's not that he has changed his temper, but that he is in a good mood and wants to share it with others!
Since receiving the news of Li Jinglong's victory a few days ago, Zhu Yunwen was in a good mood. Not only did he go to the ancestral temple to show off, but he also held a grand banquet to entertain hundreds of officials, which finally stabilized the hearts of the ruling and opposition parties.
But Zhu Yunwen still felt a little dissatisfied. After thinking about it, he thought of two people.
One is the former Chief Secretary of the Ministry of Punishment, the interview envoy in Peking, Bao Zhao.
The other one is Xia Yuanji, the little official whose advice failed at first.
Of course, Xia Yuanji was just passing by, and the person Zhu Yunwen really cared about was Bao Zhao.
Bao Zhao was a man of both political and political integrity, and Zhu Yunwen paid great attention to him.
However, after Bao Zhao went to Peiping before, he was bewitched by the villain and turned against Tiangang, preventing himself from reducing the vassal status. He also made many remonstrances and even died in court after returning to Beijing.
In anger, Zhu Yunwen dismissed Bao Zhao from his post and sent him to prison, where he has not been released to this day.
At this moment, Zhu Yunwen deigned to come to this dirty place, firstly to show off, and secondly to persuade Bao Zhao to change his mind.
Looking at Bao Zhao kneeling in front of him, Zhu Yunwen proudly took out the official document of the great victory and threw it in front of him.
"Bao Zhao, did you see it?"
"Master Wang has surrounded Beiping, and Yan Ni will be wiped out soon!"
"Facts have proven that you were wrong, and I was not wrong!"
Unexpectedly, Bao Zhao did not read the official document, but raised his head and looked directly at Emperor Jianwen.
"Your Majesty, you are wrong without knowing it. This is what worries me!"
"Baozhao, you..." Zhu Yunwen was furious, and his good mood disappeared instantly.
But Bao Zhao did not give in, but still looked directly at Zhu Yunwen.
"When the late Emperor was here, he loved his people like his own son and implemented benevolent government. As a result, the world was at peace and the world was at peace!"
"But after His Majesty ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, on the surface he implemented the New Deal and benevolent policies, but very few of them actually benefited the people."
"There are too many sycophants gathered around Your Majesty, and there are also too many people who are bewitching His Majesty. Isn't Your Majesty aware of this?"
Bao Zhao let out a long sigh.
"What I care about is never who wins or loses in this battle, but what the people of the world want!"
"If your Majesty continues to act like this, you will one day lose the heart of the world!"
"Bao Zhao, how brave are you!"
Zhu Yunzhen went crazy with anger.
If you come here to show off, you will be taught a lesson by this guy!
How dare he do this? How dare he?
After suppressing the anger in his heart, Zhu Yunwen did not do anything impulsive.
"Bastard thing!"
"Then you, Baozhao, just stay in this prison!"
Your mother and maidservant!
You ungrateful animal!
Then lock him up until he dies!
