Round after round of shelling continued to bombard the walls of Yongzhou City. When it was getting dark, the Song army under the city accelerated the frequency of shelling.

Anyway, solid projectiles have the lowest cost and are the most convenient to transport, so they don’t hurt when smashed.

But for Li Qiande on the top of the city, this day's experience was almost like a nightmare - weapons he had never seen before, and the Song army who kept a vigilant posture under the city without slacking off all day, made Li Qiande more and more... No confidence.

Of course, this is no wonder that Li Qiande has little knowledge.

Just like when Rabbit's record of picking off seventeen families in a row made Ka Dazuo mistakenly think that the five gangsters were weak chickens, Li Qiande still looks at the imperial guards who are screaming for military glory with the same eyes as before. This is not a birthday man hanging himself. Are you tired of living?

"Your Majesty, I have an idea."

Afraid that Li Qiande would think of sending him as an envoy again, Xu Baixiang rolled his eyes and simply suggested to Li Qiande: "Didn't your Majesty bring many from Lianzhou and Qinzhou to Yongzhou? Why don't your Majesty use them as hostages, or give them up first?" These people went to the Song camp as envoys to test the attitude of the young emperor of the Song Dynasty?"

Li Qiande thought about it and suddenly found that Xu Baixiang's proposal was very good——

After all, Xu Baixiang came here on his own initiative. It would be useless to use him as a hostage. If he was sent on a mission but ended up with the same fate as Li Hong, would anyone else come to him in the future?

The officials and surrendered generals brought from Lianzhou and Qinzhou are different. Even if they die, there is no need to feel bad. Because these people surrender to Dai Viet because they are greedy for life and fear of death. They will not be of the same mind as Dai Viet at all. Maybe those people Now I am thinking about how to return to the Song Dynasty.

Thinking of this, Li Qiande gave a faint hum, winked at Li Changjie, and said: "In that case, it is better to send one of the people out of the city first to see what the little emperor of Song Dynasty wants."

Li Changjie immediately bowed in agreement, and then strode away from the city. Li Qiande also ordered Li Yanghuan: "Order someone to raise a flag and ask the Song army below the city to stop temporarily."

…

"What does it mean to be careful?"

Taking advantage of the temporary lull in the artillery, Xiao Nuoyan said to Yang Zaixing angrily: "Before the arrow in your hand has been shot, you have to know what the target will look like after it is shot - you You have to pull your arrow carefully!"

"What you said when co-writing is based on imagination?"

Yang Zaixing scratched his head with a frown, and took advantage of the interval after another shell was fired to say: "I think this is too difficult!"

Xiao Nuoyan laughed loudly, pointed at the head of Yongzhou City and shouted: "I'll show you something even more powerful!"

After saying that, Xiao Nuoyan took out a feather arrow from the quiver, casually put one on the bow and shot it out, followed by the second arrow, the third arrow, and more than ten feather arrows in a row. He shot an arrow at the monkey on top of the city.

After finishing shooting, Xiao Nuoyan chuckled and said: "Look at the monkeys on the top of the city, they are basically arrows in the left eye."

"A flurry of arrows!"

Yang Zaixing screamed in surprise, looked at Xiao Nuoyan's right hand, and couldn't help but said with some envy: "How do you think your arms grow? I really want to change them with you!"

After finishing speaking, Yang Zaixing raised his right hand to cover his forehead. After looking at it for a while, he asked tentatively: "Several monkeys have died, but from such a long distance, you can guarantee that the one you shot must be the left one." Eye?"

"If you don't have some skills, how can you be called a vulture shooter?"

Xiao Nuoyan shook the bow and arrow in his hand and said with a smile: "After the city is defeated, you can go and see if the monkey has an arrow in its left eye."

When Xiao Nuoyan said this, Yang Zaixing's desire to learn shooting from Xiao Nuoyan suddenly became more intense.

Li Qiande, who was on the top of the city, looked at the dead soldiers not far away, all with arrows in their left eyes, especially the two soldiers holding white flags in their hands. His whole heart felt cold, and then he became furious. , shouted: "Then what does the young emperor of the Song Dynasty want to do? He doesn't even have the idea of ​​​​peace talks!"

Hong Zhen, Li Yanghuan and others also fell into silence.

The distance from the top of the city to the bottom of the city is not that close. To be able to shoot more than ten people with a volley of arrows from such a long distance not only requires extremely high requirements for bows and arrows, but also requires even higher requirements for archers——

Even if you search all over Dai Viet, you can't find such a powerful shooter!

"Send someone to raise the flag again."

After a long silence, Li Qiande gritted his teeth and ordered: "I don't believe that the archer under the city can keep shooting!"

Li Yanghuan immediately bowed and agreed, and arranged for two more soldiers to raise the white flag. In order to prevent the shooters from the city from shooting them both to death, Li Yanghuan simply arranged for two more soldiers holding large shields to protect them. In front of these two soldiers.

As a result, Yang Zaixing and Xiao Nuoyan who were under the city immediately realized that something was wrong, and quickly sent someone to notify the Zhongshi Zhong, who in turn notified Zhao Huan, who was sleeping soundly in the imperial chariot.

"Let them die!"

Zhao Huan, who had been sleeping soundly amidst the roaring cannons, was suddenly woken up by someone. He was so angry that he said angrily: "Notify the soldiers that from now on, it doesn't matter whether the monkeys raise the white flag or not, just hit them like this. Fight from now until night, from night until dawn tomorrow!"

…

Seeing that the shelling outside the city showed no sign of stopping, Xu Baixiang really didn't want to stay in Yongzhou City anymore, at least he couldn't stick to it anymore——

If the Song army outside the city continues to smash it with the current intensity, the wall of Yongzhou City may not be able to survive even two days and will be destroyed. By then, won't people like you become turtles in the urn?

Moreover, according to the consistent behavior of the Central Plains court, as long as the Li family and his son surrendered to the city, and then declared themselves vassals and paid tribute as the emperor and prince of the Dai Viet Kingdom, the Li family and his son would probably be able to save two lives.

But what about yourself?

Unlike those captured and demoted generals, he took the initiative to defect to Dai Viet. Prince Hong Zhen and Li Changjie were able to capture Yongzhou. It can be said that most of them were due to themselves——

Now, this credit has become a reminder!

Secretly shuddering, Xu Baixiang hurriedly paid homage to Li Qiande: "Your Majesty, the Song army outside the city has been hitting the city wall with iron projectiles. I am afraid that the wall of Yongzhou City will not last for a few days. Your Majesty should have made plans in advance. yes."

Li Qiande hummed and asked, "Does Mr. Xu have any good ideas?"

Xu Baixiang rolled his eyes and replied: "Your Majesty, the student had previously suggested that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Lieutenant Li destroy all the nearby ships. Now, except for the warships of Dayue in Zuoshui, only Yongzhou City is still alive. There are some.
