The long dark night will eventually pass, and when the sky in the east turns white, a new day finally comes.

And with the arrival of a new day, a new round of war is about to begin.

Tens of thousands of Tang troops who had completed the landing were divided into several batches, starting from the dock in waves and moving towards the capital of Japan not far away.

At this time, the gates of the capital of the Japanese capital were tightly closed. The Japanese troops above the city were facing a great enemy, and they were nervously watching the more and more Tang troops outside.

There is an old saying: It is surrounded by ten.

The tens of thousands of Tang troops were not enough to surround the capital of Japan, or even if it was encircled, the thin encirclement was not enough to pose a threat to the tall city wall. This was the conclusion drawn by the Japanese Emperor Shu Ming and his subordinates overnight.

But there are many things in this world that cannot be considered according to common sense, especially when hot weapons face cold weapons.

Therefore, after the army was overthrowing, the Tang army did not really surround the capital of Japan, but tightly blocked the city gates on all sides, followed by nightmares-like shelling.

The thunderous sound rang all day long, and there was no one on the top of the capital of the Japanese capital who dared to stand on top to pay attention to the movements of the Tang army.

Of course, there were some eyes monitoring the Tang army's movements in the dark, but they hid very deeply this time and did not dare to let the Tang army outside discover them.

The Japanese people outside the city were all frightened and retreated into their homes one by one, not even daring to go out of the door. They looked at the Tang cavalry who were galloping out of the horses and were silent.

However, Li You ignored them for the time being and kept showing his power at the capital of Japan. The new Zhenguan cannon was bombarded for a whole day, and at night, he started to attack with a bed crossbow and a catapult.

Packs of gunpowder were thrown into the city by a catapult cart, making a deafening explosion.

The flying phoenix army was soaring in the wind, constantly indicating the location of the catapults outside the city. Wherever there were people, countless gunpowder packs would fall.

In the darkness, blazing flames lit up in the capital of Japan, and from time to time there were shrill screams faintly.

Wooden-structured houses are prone to fire, and near the city walls are poor and poor people. Their houses are even simpler, basically with thatch as the roof. In this case, they are more likely to be ignited by gunpowder.

So the sky-sky fire burned for a whole night. At the beginning, some people came to save it, but they were killed by gunpowder packs falling from the sky. After countless people were killed, those who were preparing to put out the fire began to run for their lives. As for those who were still in the sea of ​​fire, they could only ask for their own blessings.

The attack of one day and one night caused countless casualties in Japan, but the Tang army itself was not injured at all, only a few unlucky ones. Because of their poor vision at night, they fell off their teeth while carrying gunpowder.

The old guy Shu Ming knew he was afraid at this time. The continuous attacks of the Tang army outside made him realize that this city that made him live on could not guarantee his safety.

The flying phoenix army that could not move in the air was like a maggot on its tars, flying around the sky above the palace at all times, paying attention to all the movements on the ground.

Shu Ming had no doubt that as long as he dared to step out of this room, the guy in the sky would kill him at any cost.

Shu Ming regretted it, regretted that the decision made the decision a few days ago was too hasty.

If he had known that the Tang army would have such determination, if he had known that the Tang army would have such strength, if he had known that the Tang army had reached such a level, if he had known that the Tang army's equipment had reached such a level, if he had known that Li You would not play according to the routine... Emperor Shu Ming thought too much about what if.

But in this world, I don’t believe that if, the bitter fruit caused by himself can only be borne by him.

Although if he did as Li You asked at the beginning, he would inevitably take this step in the end, after all, that "if" has not happened yet, it will always give people hope.

"Your Majesty, rescue, ask for help from the Fobu clan and Suwo clan. If this continues, it will take less than three days, and the capital will be captured by the Tang army. At that time, we... we will all be hanged by the King of Qi!" The begging voices of court officials who had been stranded in the palace for several days came, interrupting the contemplation of the Japanese Emperor Shu Ming.

"Seeking for help? How can we ask for help now? The Tang Dynasty has sent even the heavenly soldiers. What ability do we have to ask for help?" Yamada, who was criticized by everyone a few days ago, roared angrily, venting his dissatisfaction.

"That's better than waiting to die. Didn't you see how terrible the attacks of the Tang people were yesterday? Do you want to wait until the day when the city is broken and we will be hanged and beheaded together?" Facing Yamada's anger, someone immediately retorted.

"That's nothing. The situation is obvious now. The Tang army is just surrounding the points to attack the reinforcements. They just want us to find reinforcements and then eliminate our hopes outside!" Yamada had no choice but to use a hysterical roar to remind Shu Ming, so that he could think about his words carefully.

"Forget it, the Tang army doesn't want to surround the reinforcements at all. If they really think so, then they will leave a hole to let us send people out. But now you look at it, siege the city on all sides and siege the city on all sides. They just want to destroy us before the reinforcements arrive!"

"Yes, the Tang people don't have that many soldiers at all. They don't have the strength to eliminate reinforcements. As long as the reinforcements arrive and open a hole outside, we can open the city gate and kill from the inside, cooperate inside and outside, and drive the Tang army back to the sea completely."

Under the threat of death, a group of cowardly guys' minds became brighter, and they all showed their intelligence and talents in front of Shu Ming's Japanese Emperor, analyzing the strength and weakness of their Tang army.

As for Yamada? His position is too low, so low that what he said is completely ignored by everyone.

Although in some ways he said nothing wrong.

"But, but you just said that there are sieges outside, how can we send people out for rescue? The flying Tang soldiers in the sky can clearly see everything happening on the ground, so how can they let us send people out for rescue?"

Shu Ming, the Japanese Emperor, also did not think that Yamada's words were correct, although the last time he followed his advice, might not have happened like this.

But people have the desire to survive. If it is true that Yamada said, then the people in this city can basically wait for the arrival of death by fate.

The Japanese Emperor is also a human being, and he is also afraid of death. He is also worthy of this emperor.

It was precisely because he was afraid of death that subconsciously he chose to believe in those cowardly guys and prepared to send someone out for help.
