Chapter 327 The Last City Reclaimed



Prince Zhu looked at him coldly.

And Zhu Hongzhe looked back calmly.

"Take him away and put him under house arrest in my palace until the truth is revealed. If this matter has nothing to do with you, then that's fine. But if you find out that this matter was instigated by you, don't blame me for being rude."

Prince Zhu can't do anything to them now, because the emperor is not dead yet.

The imperial physician is still treating him. Maybe he will be able to speak again in a few days.

If they knew what he had done to them and their son, and reprimanded him for being intolerant, it would be counterproductive and he would be criticized for being unworthy of his position.

We can only keep the person under guard first.

One is to prevent them from taking other actions, and the other is to prevent them from contacting the outside world.

If those assassins were really brought by them, they would be exposed sooner or later. It would not be too late to deal with them then.

Dawei has lived with her aunt for more than forty years, and it is hard to guarantee that she still loves Canglan in her heart.

Zhu Hongzhe is the biological son of Prince Rong of Wei, so it is even more uncertain whether he really loves Canglan.

Battle reports from the front were transmitted back every two days.

Prince Zhu didn't have much time to take care of catching the assassin.

The Southern Shu Kingdom has begun attacking Yunshan City.

The Crown Prince of Southern Shu personally led the army with an army of 100,000.

However, there are only 80,000 people in Canglan Yunshan City.

To the southeast, Dawei has another bomb to clear the way.

He is in a state of panic every day.

Canglan had prepared more troops and all of them had been dispatched.

Military supplies consume a lot of money, and wars require silver, food, weapons and people.

Prince Zhu made two arrangements.

Notify the generals at the front and arrange for people to steal as many of the Dawei bombs as possible and make imitations.

The emperor was hesitant and even now he dared not use the strategy he had mentioned before.

Now that he was regent, he put his plan into action without hesitation.

The capital city of Canglan was sealed for three days, but nothing was found, so the city gates had to be opened.

Yunling finds a way to get them out of the city.

The method is very simple. Dress them up beautifully and go to the neighboring city to participate in a beauty contest.

Among the girls in the mixed building, they sat together in the carriage.

During the inspection, there were six girls in each carriage, and they flirted with the soldiers guarding the city.

Each of them has soft bones.

After checking the carriage again, there was nothing inside except a stool and the clothes they needed to change into. I also turned over the small table in the middle of the carriage, but there was nothing inside.

We left the city smoothly and went all the way to the next city without encountering any pursuit.

Prince Jing and his entourage finally felt relieved.

The iron box was decorated to look like a stool and he managed to get out of the city.

When the examination was conducted, I was sitting right under his butt.

Of course the most dangerous place is the safest place.

Every bench on the bus was decorated the same, with one girl sitting on one. The people who were checking didn't pay much attention to it, but the places where things could be easily hidden were checked carefully by them.

At night, everyone stayed in a small courtyard, which was also arranged by Yunling.

It is also one of her industries here.

"Father, if we act together, we will be too conspicuous. Why don't we learn from Shangguan Hongzhe and pretend to be a few fake people so that we can return to Wei in time?" Cao Jinyu suggested.

"Okay, let's do it this way. First, arrange the route, and then organize the action."

——

It was the end of August.

Shangguan Ziqi had already recaptured Lin'an City at this time.

There is also Rongyun City, which is the last city occupied by the enemy.

The city of 㱕 has been recaptured and the people have returned one after another.

"Report."

"Come in." Shangguan Ziqi was studying a map with Zhong Weiliang.

They used bombs to attack the city only to clear the way and could not rely on them completely.

The output is too small and time is tight, so it is impossible to get as much as you want.

"Greetings, Marshal. We have caught a few spies who sneaked in and wanted to steal our black balls." Jinshui came in to report.

"Well, just kill him directly." Shangguan Ziqi didn't even raise his head.

I don’t even know which batch this is.

The Canglan people really didn't give up, they knew that thing was not needed, so of course he had people guard it tightly. How could he let anyone get close to it?

"Yes, Marshal." Jinshui just showed his face and turned away.

After entering the camp, the four servants became the prince's personal guards.

The errands are basically done by the four of them.

"Sir, in order to minimize the damage to the city wall, I suggest dropping the bomb from here." Zhong Weiliang studied it and combined it with his observations outside the city wall to come up with a plan.

The city they attacked was the Great Wei city. If it was damaged, it would take manpower and resources to repair it, so the less losses the better.

"Well, that's right. Let's do as Lord Zhong said." Shangguan Ziqi also thought so.

"But our soldiers have fought several battles in less than two months. Can they handle it?"

Zhong Weiliang is just a scholar. He came here just to use his brain to be a military advisor to Shangguan Ziqi.

As for military management and command, he had no idea at all.

"It's better to do it in one go. If we relax, their fighting spirit will weaken and they will become dependent on bombs.

We need to create an atmosphere of bomb shortage so that the soldiers can be ready to face the enemy's counterattack at any time."

"The prince said yes."

August 15th.

Shangguan Ziqi moved forward and set up camp outside the city of Rongyun.

On August 17, a declaration of war was shot onto the city wall with an arrow.

On August 18, we launched an all-out attack.

Siege vehicles, chariots, catapults, ladders, and arrow arrays all went out.

The catapult appeared first, and ten bombs were thrown onto the city wall one after another. Before the smoke had dissipated, dozens of skilled soldiers used flying claws and, with the cover of archers, flew up to the high city wall.

Fight your way out and open the city gate.

The Canglan Army, already frightened by the previous bomb attacks, fought desperately.

But Da Wei would drop a bomb from time to time, making it difficult for them to defend themselves.

The screams of misery continued.

As soon as the city gates were opened, the Wei army poured into the city like a flood.

After the previous few battles, the Canglan Army suffered heavy losses, while the Dawei Army had an absolute advantage in numbers.

After a morning of bloody fighting, Rongyun City was recovered.

The remnants of the Canglan Army fled in panic.

Some of them were captured before they could escape.

Clean up the battlefield.

More than 2,000 of our own men were killed or wounded.

The enemy suffered more than 8,000 casualties.

More than 10,000 prisoners of war.

"The entire army will reorganize and rest for half a month." Shangguan Ziqi ordered.

Since then, all the cities lost in Tang Dynasty's homeland have been recovered since the war broke out.

The battle report was quickly sent to Beijing.

The news spread throughout the country, especially the refugees who had fled and rushed back to their homes after hearing the news.

There's nothing better than coming home.

Officials from all regions actively cooperated to allow the refugees to return as soon as possible.

At the beginning of September, Shangguan Ziqi inspected the military training situation early in the morning as usual.

Just as he returned to his main tent, a military doctor came to see him.

Generally, military doctors would not ask to see the commander-in-chief unless it was extremely important.

He also asked the coach to come out and see him.

This request shocked Qingfeng and the others so much that they looked at each other in amazement.

Who is this military doctor? Why did he ask the commander-in-chief to come out and see him?

Moreover, the military doctor did not come forward, but spoke to them from a distance of more than two meters.

"I say, Doctor Shao, aren't you too bold? You actually dare to ask the commander to come out to see you." Yuanshan found it funny.

"Guard Yuanshan, I really have an urgent matter to discuss with the commander-in-chief. Please ask him to come out and see me. I really can't come in." The military doctor looked anxious.

"What's wrong?" Hearing the noise, Shangguan Ziqi saw people talking outside and no guards came in to report. He felt strange and walked out.

"Your Highness, Doctor Shao wants to see you, but he wants you to come out and meet him." Qingfeng straightened his body and reported seriously.
