It seems that the capital of the King of Peking has indeed issued a death order... and he had previously eliminated his adopted father's old subordinates and cultivated his confidants. At such a time of danger, many military generals were still willing to protect the King of the Kings until the last moment.

Therefore, the Xianyu defenders fought to the death, with arrows falling from the city and rocks flying. The soldiers who were originally trying to attack the city would inevitably fall down... After two rounds of offensives, they remained unmoved. A general who was ordered to lead his troops to attack the Nancheng had also rushed to the commander of the commander under the capital of Beiping according to the order of Emperor Wei Li Tianqu, and he was still ashamed on his face, and he said:

"The Beiping defenders are pounding stone arrows and counterattacks are very fierce. Although the dozen stone throwing machines they set up have bombarded one after another, they still destroyed the city gate for a while... The last general is incompetent, and he has a heavy trust from the coach with the negative junction!"

"What a good city of Xianyu. I thought that the Beiping soldiers were few and few generals, but our Wei army launched a war to attack and killed the city. The Beiping army would be shocked. If there were any defenders planning a mutiny, they were willing to surrender to our dynasty and open the city gate to support our army to enter the city. But now it seems that... the enemy guarding the city gate still has to resist stubbornly..."

The commander of the Wei army heard the news from his subordinate generals, looked at the head of Xianyu City, which was filled with smoke and muttered... This person was Wang Yanqiu, the governor of the Henghai Army. He was dispatched according to the imperial order and he was fully in charge of the battle to break through Xianyu City, which was exactly the same as his record of destroying the Beiping Kingdom according to historical records.

Wang Yanqiu waited and turned his head and said to the man who blamed himself:

"The south city of Xianyu City is also built in front of the city walls, with a city wall several meters high. It seems that the Beiping army often reinforces, and the bricks and stones are built in a solid manner, which is indeed very solid. Moreover, all kinds of city defense buildings are complete and sufficient guarding facilities. If you want ant to climb the city, it is difficult to seize the city gate in one fell swoop...

Our army has built a trench bridge to build a moat, but when we approached the past rashly, arrows and flying stones poured over. If we attacked hard, the losses would be heavy... You don't need to blame yourself. These two rounds of siege were originally intended to test the reaction of the defenders in the city. For nothing more than... I'll send orders to withdraw the troops, otherwise it would be just a waste of casualties."

When the teeth heard this, he immediately took the order. When he was about to turn around and leave, he subconsciously asked Wang Yanqiu again:

"Jie Shuai, how long will the troops who attacked the city gate rest this time? Do you still have to make up the full amount of manpower?"

Although he was ordered to attack the capital of Peking, he has been unable to attack so far. However, Wang Yanqiu's face was very calm:

"I don't have to make plans to attack the city soon. After the troops have enough strength, they will be dispatched according to my orders to cut off the roads of Xianyu City and Ding and Yi two prefectures. I will submit a letter to request a report to temporarily set up the Xiguan City of Dingzhou as a capital, and in charge of military and civil affairs of Yizhou and Dingzhou during the war era... In this way, even if the king can defend it, except for this lonely city, the entire territory under the rule of the country of Peking will be fully annexed by our dynasty. Where can he escape?"

If Wang Yanqiu followed the trajectory of the official history line, he was ordered to fight against the rebellion and rushed to the capital of the Beiping Kingdom, he believed that "Dingzhou City is strong and cannot be attacked. He added Xiguan City to be the prefecture, and set up a recruitment of the prefecture and Dingzhou Travel Prefecture in Xiguan City. The people of the three prefectures were allowed to pay taxes and provide food to the army to guard it."...

In other words, it is to surround but not attack, and to treat other counties, towns and villages under the rule of the State of Peking as their own territory. The territory under Wang Yu's control has been reduced from the original "country of the country" to the scale of the "country of the country"... No matter how sufficient the grain and fodder reserves in Dingzhou Xianyu City are, they will inevitably be exhausted for a day. Anyway, our military supply supply is continuously supplying, but the grain in your city cannot be replenished... Then it will be consumed until the grain is exhausted, and the grass is too scarce, and the other party's city defense will be strong, and in the end, it will only be destroyed without attacking.

If you follow the historical record, there will be more people under Wang Yanqiu's command, Zhang Qianzhao and others are eager to do so. In this time and space, the generals who had already died in the war of the Wei Dynasty's defeat of the Later Tang Dynasty... Seeing that the coach set up camp under the capital of the Beiping Kingdom, he had no intention of siege for a period of time, he promoted Wang Yanqiu's cowardly battle everywhere. However, the emperor Li Siyuan, who did not understand the situation on the front line, heard the rumors and issued an edict to urge Wang Yanqiu to step up the siege.

Wang Yanqiu then had to attack Dingzhou, but was hit hard, and returned in vain, losing thousands of soldiers. He then reported to the court that the enemy's city defense was strong and it was really difficult to conquer for a while. However, as long as he could control the supply of taxes in nearby prefectures, form a siege, provide pensions to the people, and loves soldiers, the enemy would definitely defeat themselves without attacking... Li Siyuan no longer urged him to attack the city, and the war was still fully controlled by Wang Yanqiu.

Li Tianqu naturally knew this historical record very well, so he issued an edict earlier to command Wang Yanqiu to lead the main force of the Henghai Army's Yajun to attack Xianyu City, the capital of Beiping, and did not set a deadline to break the city. He also instructed him in the handwritten instructions whether he was intending to take it quickly or to siege the city for a protracted battle, it was all up to you...

Originally, the Beiping Kingdom was destroyed by Wang Yanqiu, and Li Tianqu thought that it would be possible for him to achieve the achievements in the original historical record... The current situation is more beneficial to the Central Plains dynasty. In addition to the foreign troops who had previously driven here, the Khitan was now shaking and it was absolutely impossible for him to send reinforcements to rescue the capital. The number of casualties of Wei soldiers was minimized. Dingzhou Xianyu City was one time earlier and one time later, and in the end, the Wei Dynasty would still be occupied by the Wei Dynasty.

So when the general of the army retreated and went to order the troops under his command to retreat, Wang Yanqiu calmly ordered and instructed the military academy around him:

"Although the city defense in Dingzhou is stable, the anxious thing is Wang Yu and his defenders. Our army is not in a hurry. The longer it takes, the more beneficial it will be for us. And to the end, even if Xianyu City is as solid as a rock, it will be self-defeating. But we must also tell the men of the tribes to be careful of the enemy's attacks and robbing camps at night... and send orders to inform the generals who attacked the other city gates to retreat, clean up the battlefield, and rescue the wounded..."

The military academy of the Henghai Army received the order and urged the horse to convey military information to the outside of the city gates. After a while, the Datong Zhenya Army, which besieged Xianyu City, retreated like a tide. On the way back, he did not forget to set up a shield and save the wounded comrades as much as possible and retreated back to the camp.

The Beiping Guards, who were guarding the city pass, were finally able to breathe a sigh of relief when they saw the Wei army retreating... They hurriedly began to order the military and civilians to repair the village defense and replenish the defenders. Under the city, the chaotic crowd ran hard and did not dare to slack off.

In addition to the generals and soldiers who received their salaries and military salaries, almost all the male young men in the city were arrested, and they were involved in carrying soil, stones, demolishing houses, transporting guards, etc., in labor affairs. Even ordinary women had to deliver food, water, and cook food.

If the Wei Dynasty army had to continue to launch a fierce offensive due to its large number of soldiers and wide generals, the war would have ended, which would have been a big deal... The capital of the Beiping kings was now forced to jump over the wall and had already made up their minds. At that time, whether women, old or young people in the city would stuff a weapon into their hands, force them to the city gate, and they would also personally participate in this tragic war.
