First Secret Agent in History

As mentioned before, the area of ​​the Nu Emperor's mausoleum is larger than that of Split Wind City.

Under the open space outside the city wall on the north side of Split Wind City is still the scope of the Nu Emperor's Mausoleum.

In other words, the northern city wall can also create the effect of the sky falling apart and the earth collapsing.

But Zhou Li, the eldest prince of the Southern Zhou Empire, did not do that.

Why not do such a gorgeous massacre effect?

First of all, the Southern Zhou Empire still did not know the formula of gunpowder.

Jing Zhongyue is a very strange person. She told Yan Pianying all about the Troy plan, but she said nothing about the formula of gunpowder, because it was a gift from Yun Zhonghe, and she named it Yue Huo. It's a unique gift. Therefore, she was determined not to hand it over, and Yan Pianying did not dare to press him.

Without flames, it would be impossible to blow up the supporting stone pillars of the mausoleum in an instant, and it would be difficult to create the effect of the earth collapsing at once.

Secondly, the previous massacre at the Tomb of the Furious Emperor was too ferocious.

Within a few days after the massacre, the entire mausoleum was filled with stench, and countless corpses began to rot.

The carbon monoxide gas had finally dissipated in the past two days, but it was too late to saw off the supporting stone pillars on the north side of the mausoleum and create a major collapse in the north of Split Wind City.

And as mentioned before, the open space to the south of Split Wind City is wide and can create a large collapse that can kill nearly a hundred thousand troops. The open space outside the northern city wall is narrow. Even if the ground collapses, it will only kill 20,000 to 30,000 people.

Therefore, Zhou Li decisively gave up this seemingly dazzling plan, and no longer wanted to use the earth collapse to kill the imperial army.

…………………………………………

Yun Zhonghe stood on the city wall, looking to the north.

The 200,000-strong army led by Hu Yanzhuo, deputy commander of the Southern Zhou Empire's southern army, was getting closer and closer.

The terrain to the north of Split Wind City is too narrow to accommodate 200,000 troops, so it stretches for several miles.

Along the way, Feng BoE still led Da Ying Empire's spies to run back and forth between the two armies, delivering news.

I saw that the 200,000 troops led by Hu Yanzhuo were getting more and more relaxed.

Because the distance is getting closer and closer, you can clearly see within the field of vision, the flag of the Great Victory Empire is hanging above the head of Split Wind City.

Moreover, the fourth prince Ying Qu was standing on the top of the city, and beside him stood an extremely handsome young man, who should be the genius Yun Zhonghe.

Ordinarily, the City Lord Jing Zhongyue should also be there, but I don’t know why she is not there. However, I heard that this female City Lord has a very paranoid personality, so it is normal that she is not here at this time.

For Deputy Commander Hu Yanzhuo, this time he led his troops to support, transport military supplies, and build a defense line in preparation for Ao Xin's Northern Expedition.

This 200,000-strong army is getting closer and closer.

Next, the entire field of vision was filled with dark and dense troops.

Yan Pianqing laughed softly and said: "Your Excellency Yun Zhonghe, you must be very anxious now. You want to remind Hu Yanzhuo to run away quickly, run away quickly, but you can't make any sound."

Not only was Yun Zhonghe unable to make any sound, he was also unable to move at all.

They could only watch helplessly as the 200,000-strong army of the victorious empire got closer and closer, falling into the trap step by step.

The whole world was quiet, except for the footsteps of the two hundred thousand troops.

Even when they were still several miles away, the 200,000 troops had already begun to change their formations.

He didn't enter any fighting state, just relaxed and prepared to enter the city.

Because according to the military order of the Fourth Prince Yingqu, these 200,000 troops are here to support and defend Split Wind City.

Almost half an hour later!

The 200,000-strong army of the Great Victory Empire all arrived at the foot of Split Wind City and spread out for several miles.

Their state of relaxation was extremely high, and they were waiting to file into the city, completely without any precautions.

In the city, the eldest prince of Southern Zhou Zhou Li said: "Where is Ao Xin's army?"

"According to calculations, it is eighty miles away from Split Wind City." Shadow said: "But the direction in which he will move next should just block the retreat of the Great Victory Empire."

Zhou Li pursed his lips and smiled.

Although Ao Xin, Marquis of Nulang, doesn't know how to behave and is too cold and arrogant, he is a genius when it comes to leading troops and fighting, so there is no need to worry at all.

Therefore, although Zhou Li is the coach, he never gives too precise orders to Ao Xin.

Because Ao Xin is a genius general, his grasp of the battlefield is unmatched by anyone, and he can do better than you want.

Done!

Next, Hu Yanzhuo's 200,000 troops were unable to escape.

The sheep has entered the tiger's mouth.

The valley to the north of Splitwind City is long and narrow, making it difficult for the army to deploy. Once it enters, it will be difficult to escape.

The fish has completely bitten the hook and cannot escape.

…………………………………………

Hu Yanzhuo, deputy commander of the Great Victory Empire's southern army, dismounted, came to the city wall, knelt down on one knee and said: "General Hu Yanzhuo, pay homage to the commander and request to enter the city!"

Of course he knelt down to the fake fourth prince Ying Qu on top of the city.

While kneeling down on one knee, Hu Yanzhuo presented the soldier talisman with both hands. As Hu Yanzhuo knelt down, dozens of generals behind him all knelt down.

When Ying Qu is away, the command of this army belongs to Hu Yanzhuo. Once Ying Qu is here, the military symbols will naturally be handed over to the commander Ying Qu. This is a very serious rule that must not be exceeded.

The fake fourth prince Yingqu said: "Thank you Marquis Anxi for your hard work, please get up. Generals, please get up."

Hu Yanzhuo stood up straight, and the dozens of generals behind him also stood up.

The fake fourth prince Yingqu said: "Marquis Anxi, the person next to me is Lord Yun Zhonghe, who is the biggest contributor to this battle in Split Wind City."

Unable to move, Yun Zhonghe nodded in greeting like a controlled puppet.

Hu Yanzhuo, the Marquis of Anxi at the foot of the city, bowed his hands and bowed. He didn't seem very affectionate, but he wasn't very arrogant either, and seemed a bit distant.

"Your Royal Highness, my subordinates request to enter the city and return the military talisman." Hu Yanzhuo once again presented the military talisman with both hands.

This is the rule of the empire. After seeing the commander, he must hand over the military talisman as soon as possible to show that he has no intention of seizing power.

What's more, the coach Ying Chu is a prince.

The fake fourth prince Ying Qu said: "Marquis of Anxi, generals, please enter the city. I have prepared a banquet to wash away your dust."

"Rumble..."

Immediately afterwards, the north gate of Split Wind City slowly opened.

Although it is a city gate, it is actually the devil's big mouth and seems to be the entrance to hell, which will completely destroy the 200,000-strong army of the Great Victory Empire.

The deputy commander Hu Yanzhuo had no doubt that he was there. He held up the military symbols with both hands for everyone to see, and then led dozens of generals into the city.

Once these people enter the city, they will definitely die.

Once these people die, the 200,000-strong army will be completely leaderless. They will be attacked by Zhou Li and Ao Xin's armies and will surely die.

Hu Yanzhuo walked very slowly, because this was the return of military power, and every step had to be full of ceremony.

At this moment, even Zhou Li and Yan Pianying held their breaths, their hearts beating faster and faster.

Their grand conspiracy is about to succeed.

The strategy that has been planned for several years is about to come to an end, and it is about to reap unprecedented huge results.

Deputy Commander Hu Yanzhuo is getting closer and closer to the entrance of hell.

At this time, Yunzhonghe could not make any sound or make any movements.

Suddenly at this time.

Deputy Commander Hu Yanzhuo suddenly shouted: "Xiao Li."

Everyone present was stunned, not knowing what this meant.

Yan Pianqing's expression changed, knowing that something bad was going on. Although he didn't know what it meant, he could guess that it must be the nickname of the fourth prince Yingqu, and it was a nickname that most people didn't know.

There is no doubt that after getting a little closer, Hu Yanzhuo still saw the flaws in the fake Yingqu. After all, they were only 80% similar at most.

Therefore, he directly called out Ying Qu's nickname to test.

This nickname happened more than 20 years ago. Because Ying Qu was just born and weighed less than five pounds, his mother was worried that she would not be able to feed him, so she gave him the nickname Xiaoli.

But soon after, Yingqu grew up vigorously and became stronger than his brothers. Therefore, no one called him this nickname for a long time, and only those closest to him knew it.

The relationship between Anxi Marquis Hu Yanzhuo and the fourth prince Ying Qu cannot be said to be close, and he did not know his nickname. However, before departure, the fourth prince's mother, Concubine Yu, specially summoned Hu Yanzhuo to talk. They did not discuss any serious matters, just They chatted about interesting things about the fourth prince Yingqu when he was a child, including his nickname.

The reason why Concubine Yu did this was of course because she cherished her son and wanted Hu Yanzhuo to take good care of the fourth prince Ying Chu.

Moreover, this kind of thing cannot be explained clearly, and only alternative methods can be used to bring the relationship between the two parties closer.

This fake fourth prince Ying Qu was also very cunning. He only stayed for half a second, and then laughed loudly and said: "Marquis Anxi, showing such a posture in public, it is really hard for people to get close to him."

This response was considered very smart. It didn't admit it, but it didn't deny it either.

Hu Yanzhuo, the deputy commander of the Great Victory Empire, smiled respectfully, then turned around and ran away without saying a word.

"There's fraud, there's fraud, there's fraud!"

"This is a trick of the enemy!"

It was completely unexpected that the deputy commander Hu Yanzhuo was so fast, running like a fierce horse and shouting continuously.

Zhou Li and Yan Pianying's expressions suddenly changed.

The fish that bit the hook really made him run away.

"Cum, cum, cum..."

Following an order, the Southern Zhou army pretending to be victorious over the imperial army on the city wall rained arrows down like crazy.

The deputy commander Hu Yanzhuo ignored him and turned around and ran wildly, letting the rain of arrows hit him. Because he was covered in iron armor and weighed a hundred kilograms, he was not afraid of bows and arrows at all.

However, there are archers on the walls.

Each arrow was so fierce and sharp that it shot directly through the iron armor and nailed the sharp arrow directly to Hu Yanzhuo's back.

So when the deputy commander Hu Yanzhuo fled back to the army formation, there were four or five arrows stuck in his back.

Next, Hu Yanzhuo will face a difficult life and death decision.

Should we flee immediately or attack the city directly?

Obviously this is a dragnet set by the enemy. If you want to prevent the entire army from being destroyed, you should escape immediately.

But where to run?

Instinctively, one should flee toward the border of the Great Victory Empire. After all, the defense on the border is impregnable. As long as one escapes back to the defense line, he will be safe.

But since the enemy has laid a dragnet, they will definitely block the way back, and Ao Xin's army may be behind them.

So we can only escape to the west?

But if you go all the way to the west, you will reach the western desert. If you go further to the west, you will find the Kingdom of Great Liang, a tough and ferocious enemy country.

The most important thing is that the army brought a lot of bows and arrows and a lot of ordnance, but not much rations, because according to intelligence, the food in Split Wind City was piled up like a mountain.

But fleeing to the west seemed to be the only way to survive.

He hesitated for only half a minute.

Deputy Commander Hu Yanzhuo made a completely unbelievable decision.

"Siege the city!"

"Siege the city!"

"Siege the city!"

If he doesn't do anything, he will continue to attack Split Wind City directly.

"The army assembles and forms its formation!"

Following Hu Yanzhuo's order, the 200,000-strong army began to hurriedly form an array.

It's so pitiful that they didn't bring any siege equipment, not to mention the trebuchet, not even the siege ladder.

Moreover, the terrain to the north of Split Wind City is so narrow that the army cannot deploy at all, making it absolutely easy to defend but difficult to attack.

"Cut down trees and build siege ladders!"

Following the order, thousands of heavy troops rushed to the mountains on both sides and began cutting down trees.

Isn't it a little late to build a siege ladder now?

Ao Xin's army is eighty miles away and will arrive in a day.

……………………

In the city!

Many generals in the Southern Zhou Empire couldn't help but laugh.

Hu Yanzhuo is indeed of foreign descent, and he is upright and strong.

Under such unfavorable circumstances, they actually chose to attack the city instead of fleeing westward.

Of course, if they fled westward, Hu Yanzhuo's army, which lacked food, would be waiting to die.

And to attack a city is to seek death.

Split Wind City is such a big city, and there are 200,000 defenders in the city.

Two hundred thousand against two hundred thousand, one side is exhausted, and the other side is waiting for work, how can it be possible to win?

Moreover, the Southern Zhou Empire's Nulanghou Ao Xin's army is less than a hundred miles away and will soon be behind them.

Although there were some twists and turns in the process.

But the result is still the same, Hu Yanzhuo's 200,000 army will still be completely destroyed.

If he fled westward, he might still have half a chance of survival, but if he directly chose to attack the city, it would really be a recipe for death.

"Get ready for war!"

Following Zhou Li's order.

The Southern Zhou Empire army began to prepare for war, and the dense army climbed onto the city wall.

The trebuchet opens,

The giant crossbow opened.

Countless archers, layer upon layer, even stood under the city gate.

The 200,000 defenders couldn't fit into a city wall that was only three or four miles long.

Completely capable of arming every inch to the teeth and defending to the extreme.

………………

Three hours later!

Hu Yanzhuo, the deputy commander of the Great Victory Empire, shouted loudly: "Attack the city!"

Suddenly, countless Imperial troops charged forward like a tide.

Rush, rush, rush!

Tens of thousands of troops, carrying the newly built siege ladder, rushed towards the city wall desperately.

There were no trebuchets or siege engines, and they relied entirely on manpower.

"Cum, cum, cum..."

Following the order, the Southern Zhou Empire's army in the city rained arrows wildly.

"Swish, swish, swish..."

As the arrows rained down one after another.

The soldiers of the Great Victory Empire fell to the ground one after another, blood splattering everywhere.

"Put it, put it, put it..."

More than a dozen trebuchets began to show their power, throwing huge rocks weighing dozens of kilograms wildly.

"Bang bang bang bang..."

These boulders hit the ground and trembled. Most of them were unable to hit, but a few of them directly crushed dozens of Dawei Empire soldiers into a pulp after hitting them.

This war has been intense from the beginning.

casualties.

Horrible casualties.

Under the rain of arrows from the Southern Zhou Empire, the casualties of the Da Sheng Empire's army were increasing.

However, countless armies continued to rush forward like moths to a flame, rushing towards them crazily.

Really not afraid of death at all.

This is the scary thing about an empire that is on the rise. Every soldier is filled with a sense of honor.

Faced with such terrible casualties, he showed no fear and still rushed forward crazily.

Seeing this scene, it was completely shocking.

Yan Pianqing sighed: "Good soldiers, good soldiers are rare in the world, brave, fearless, and passionate. But it is a pity that their sacrifices are meaningless."

Yun Zhonghe was released from the restraint at this time and could speak and move.

What? Afraid he'll run away?

With his helpless hands and small arms and legs, where could he escape?

"Kill, kill, kill..."

The whole world was shaking.

Countless war drums sounded.

The war drums of both armies were beating crazily.

Under the command of deputy commander Hu Yanzhuo, an army of 200,000 attacked the city almost frantically.

In such an unfavorable environment, it is completely risking one's life.

There was blood everywhere, flames everywhere, and corpses everywhere.

Yan Pianqing said: "It's so brave, but it's meaningless! How long can this crazy attack on the city and crazy sacrifices last? Within a day or two, they were all gone. This Hu Yanzhuo is just a second-rate general. "

yes!

According to this desperate method and this method of death, almost all the 200,000 troops will be lost in less than two days.

"Kill, kill, kill, kill..."

"Rush, rush, rush, rush..."

Hu Yanzhuo almost shouted hoarsely.

However, it is really impossible to attack.

The terrain here is too narrow for the army to deploy at all, Split Wind City is too high, and the enemy defenders are too many and too elite.

No matter how many troops were sent, they all died.

There was no way to climb the city wall.

Deputy Commander Hu Yanzhuo's eyes were red.

Suddenly, he handed the command flag to Shi Dao, the governor-general next to him: "The command belongs to you."

The face of Shi, the governor-general of the Great Victory Empire's Southern Expedition, changed drastically. He immediately knelt down and said, "Marquis Anxi, you must not do it, you must not do it!"

Anxi Marquis Hu Yanzhuo shouted loudly: "Where are the warriors of the Huyan family? Where are they?"

"exist!"

"exist!"

Suddenly thousands of majestic warriors came out. These were the private warriors of his Huyan family, and they were the most elite and fierce.

Hu Yanzhuo looked back and saw his son, his brother, and his nephew inside.

He knew almost everyone.

Good steel should be used on the blade, and it's time to do so now.

The most elite troops should be deployed.

Hu Yanzhuo shouted: "Men of the Huyan family, follow me, follow me..."

"Be loyal to the emperor and protect the country now!"

After Hu Yanzhuo, the Marquis of Anxi, roared wildly, he personally picked up the sword, led thousands of Huyan family elite warriors, and tens of thousands of soldiers to charge wildly.

If Ying Qu is not here, Hu Yanzhuo will be the coach.

As a coach, he personally attacked the city, which was crazy.

Even the generals of the Southern Zhou Empire on top of the city were stunned.

Are the armies of the Great Victory Empire so ferocious?

Is the general who conquered the empire so passionate?

Faced with this kind of fatal battle, the coach personally goes into battle?

This is too crazy.

"Kill, kill, kill..."

Anxi Hou Hu Yanzhuo led thousands of warriors, and they were indeed fierce and fierce. They rushed directly to the city wall despite countless arrows.

"Rush, rush, rush..."

Anxi Marquis Hu Yanzhuo still went up personally, taking his son and nephew with him, desperately climbing up the siege ladder.

"Roll the wood, roll the wood..."

"Roll the oil, boil the oil..."

"Bow and arrow, bow and arrow..."

On the city wall, countless rolling logs and boiling oil poured down in crazy waves.

The three or four miles long city wall completely turned into a wall of death.

Every second, there are staggering casualties.

But Hu Yanzhuo and his family warriors were so strong that they actually rushed to the city wall.

The soldiers of the Southern Zhou Empire were really shocked.

Under this situation, the soldiers of the victorious empire could really charge up the city wall?

This...this is too scary.

"This is the destiny of the country!" Zhou Li said lightly: "Civil officials don't talk about money, and generals are not afraid of death. This is the destiny of the country."

"Hold!"

"Hold!"

"The army is on the wall!"

"The whole army is marching, the whole army is marching..."

Zhou Li did not personally direct the battle. The commander-in-chief on the battlefield was Duke Zhou Xun, who was also a member of the Southern Zhou royal family and a veteran on the battlefield.

Faced with Hu Yanzhuo's faster attack.

Duke Zhou Xun, the battlefield commander of the Southern Zhou Empire, was victorious and shouted: "Don't let the winning country see clearly our Southern Zhou Empire, follow me, follow me..."

The old Duke Zhou Xun of the Southern Zhou Empire, leading his personal guards, also rushed to the top of the city crazily and fought in person.

This is completely unnecessary. As a battlefield commander, he does not need to go into battle to kill the enemy.

However, Hu Yanzhuo, the deputy commander of the Great Victory Empire, went into battle in person. Do we want people in the world to think that our Southern Zhou Empire does not have such bloody courage?

As a member of the royal family and a cousin of His Majesty the Emperor, if I dare not go into battle, what will the soldiers of the Southern Zhou Empire think of me, the Zhou royal family?

soon!

The battle on the city wall entered its most intense stage.

It’s really the white knife that goes in and the red knife that comes out.

Two armies, frantically throwing themselves into the army.

The city wall, which was only three to four miles long, had completely turned into a meat grinder.

On the side of the Great Victory Empire, when they saw their coach rushing to the city wall, their morale was even higher, and they rushed to the city wall regardless of their own safety.

Although they are at an absolute disadvantage, their morale is extremely high.

As for the Southern Zhou Empire, Duke Zhou Xun's personal participation in the battle was like a shot in the arm, boosting morale.

The two armies became more and more fierce as they fought.

Investing in the military regardless of cost.

Zhou Li was completely moved when he saw this scene.

The army of the Great Victory Empire was so fierce and powerful. In such a passive and terrifying situation, they were so inextricably killed.

This city wall is really like a black hole.

Continuously devouring human lives and devouring armies.

"Put it on, put it on it, put it on it..."

Following the order, the Southern Zhou Empire's army in Split Wind City rushed forward crazily.

The main force.

Reserve Army.

They all swarmed forward.

Hu Yanzhuo is too tough, and the Da Sheng Empire is too strong.

If this wave of offensive is not completely wiped out, the battle situation will actually be a bit dangerous.

Do it all at once, second time tired, third time exhausted.

"Kill, kill, kill..."

Although Hu Yanzhuo is tough, his family's warriors are powerful, and even though they win a great victory over the imperial army, they are tough.

But...it's too passive after all.

On average, among three people, at most one person can successfully climb the city.

Therefore, the ratio of the two sides around the city wall is one to three. No matter how fierce the imperial army is, one cannot defeat three.

so……

Although the strong army led by Hu Yanzhuo was like a raging flame, it was about to be extinguished.

This crazy offensive will soon be wiped out.

Moreover, the thousands of family warriors led by Hu Yanzhuo will soon be completely surrounded and divided.

The balance of the battlefield was quickly moving towards the Southern Zhou Empire.

The situation is becoming increasingly unfavorable for the Great Victory Empire.

Such a crazy battle was followed by more than just defeat.

Even the coach Hu Yanzhuo will die completely on the city wall.

The powerful warriors of the Huyan family may be wiped out.

The Imperial army that storms the city will be completely destroyed.

This battle will be completely lost.

It’s about to be completely over!

Yan Pianying breathed a long sigh of relief.

"It's over, it's finally over."

"Lord Yun Zhonghe, your victory over the empire's army did not disappoint you. It showed terrifying combat effectiveness and a terrifying sense of honor."

"But, everything is coming to an end. The army is defeated like a mountain. It won't take half an hour at most, and you will lose."

"Hu Yanzhuo is going to die, and the Huyan family warriors are going to be wiped out."

"All of this is thanks to you, Master Yun Zhonghe. The army of the Great Victory Empire did not disappoint you, but you did let them down."

"Lord Yun Zhonghe, you are finished. Congratulations. You killed two commanders of the Daying Empire and killed hundreds of thousands of troops."

at this time!

Duke Zhou Xun, the battlefield commander of the Southern Zhou Empire, shouted loudly: "Brother Huyan, surrender! Your family warriors are going to die. Surrender, I will protect your wealth for the rest of your life."

Commander Hu Yanzhuo shouted: "If you die, you will die, so why should you be afraid?"

"Be loyal to the emperor and protect the country now!"

Hu Yanzhuo, covered in blood, fought even more crazily.

The family warriors he led were even more crazy.

But this is more like the madness before death.

Everyone could see that the battle was over.

The great victory over the imperial army is about to end. It is only a matter of time before Marshal Hu Yanzhuo and his family warriors are all destroyed.

However……

Just at this time!

"Kill, kill, kill..."

Dozens of cracks suddenly appeared on the ground.

Countless warriors of the Great Victory Empire emerged from the ground one after another.

The leader is the fourth prince Ying Chu, and beside him is Lord Feng Xingmie.

A hundred thousand troops emerged from the underground mausoleum and attacked the back of the Southern Zhou Empire.

Each one seems crazy.

"Kill, kill, kill..."

The army of the Southern Zhou Empire instantly changed from taking the absolute initiative to being attacked from both sides.

Win the empire's 100,000-strong army and carry out crazy backstabs on them.

Zhou Li, the eldest prince of the Southern Zhou Empire, was completely stunned. Was Yan Pianqing also stunned?

This, is this hell?

Aren’t the 100,000-strong army of the Great Victory Empire in the Mausoleum of Emperor Nu being dead?

Aren’t Ying Qu and Feng Xing Mie already dead?

Inside the underground mausoleum, there were obviously countless corpses, tens of thousands in total.

Even the body of the fourth prince Ying Qu has been found.

Even though it was bloody, scarred, and beyond recognition, you could still tell that this was Ying Qu. The birthmarks on his body were all the same.

Why didn't he die?

Why didn't these 100,000 troops die?

But no one answered them why? Prince Yingqu led an army of 100,000 people, constantly emerging from the ground and charging towards the back of the Southern Zhou Empire army.
