Chapter 256

She also said in a deep voice, "The enemy's attack is certainly an unprecedented crisis for my Da Qian, but Changan has Junior Official Gao and ten thousand brilliant plans. As long as my Da Qian is united, why fear the Great Chu's hundreds of thousands of troops?"

Lu Zhen, Zhao Ponu, and Qin Zhenguo looked at each other, then stood out one after another, saying loudly: "We are willing to fully cooperate with Lord Gao to guard Changan, to guard... our common home!"

Lu Wen and Wang Hao looked gloomy, looked at each other, and looked hesitant.

Lu Wen's eyes flickered, and he stood out and said, "May I ask Lord Gao, how much certainty do you have in defending the city!"

Gao Yang said with a calm face, "With Changan united, and with the means in this official's heart, I have ninety percent certainty that we can hold it!"

Hiss!

Ninety percent certainty!

With Gao Yang's reputation as the "Living Yama," this undoubtedly injected a shot of adrenaline into some wavering officials.

Wu Zhao also looked at Gao Yang, carrying shock.

"This subject would rather die than be a minister of a fallen nation, and is willing to listen to Lord Gao's dispatch!"

A censor with low status but a face full of righteousness stood out and said loudly.

"This subject agrees!"

Immediately after, like a tide, voices sounded one after another.

"This subject agrees!"

"This subject agrees!"

One official after another stood out, bowing to Gao Yang.

Lu Wen and Wang Hao looked back in shock, and what came into view were faces full of hot blood.

They were fearless, and burning flames ignited in their eyes.

If there is a glimmer of hope, who is willing to be a minister of a fallen nation, and who is willing to be a dog for Prince Wu and Great Chu, and be scolded by history books?

The blood in their hearts had not yet cooled.

Among the officials, there were not a few ministers like Gao Tianlong and Gao Feng who were determined to commit suicide if the city was broken.

Of course, there were also ministers whose water was too cold and whose scalps were itchy.

But at this moment, with the voices of Wu Zhao, Gao Yang, and Gao Tianlong, the war faction had become the general trend!

Neutral ministers defected one after another.

Since the "Living Yama" didn't run away and said there was ninety percent hope, then we can still fight!

Cui Xinghe also stood out and said loudly: "This subject agrees!"

Yan Zheng also looked at it and stood out one after another, saying loudly: "This subject agrees!"

For a time, Wu Zhao smiled.

Gao Yang also smiled.

The destruction of a country is not the capture of the monarch or the shattering of mountains and rivers, but whether the bones of the ministers and commoners of this country are hard.

If the court is timid and has no blood, the commoners will only be more desperate, losing the hearts of the people. Even if the Chu army really wants to slaughter the city, the commoners will never rise up to fight back. Then let alone a counterattack under disadvantageous conditions, even if it is an advantage, sitting on a pile of artifacts like gunpowder, so what?

The fall of the country is only a matter of time.

But as long as the hearts of the people and the blood are still there, then this battle can be fought!

Gao Yang looked at Lu Zhen and said loudly: "Old General Lu!"

"This general is here!"

Lu Zhen stood out and said loudly.

"From this moment on, Changan scouts will all go out, covering a radius of one hundred miles. Our Da Qian must control the movements of the Chu army!"

"In addition, you send a large army to strengthen the walls and clear the fields, collect the fallen wood and rolling stones outside Changancheng, take as much as you can, and burn what you can't take. Do not leave even a little bit for Great Chu, and be fast!"

"Once the military order is issued, immediately block Changancheng. From royal relatives to commoners, do not let anyone out of the city!"

Gao Yang's eyes showed killing intent.

"If there is any resistance, regardless of status, kill without mercy!"

"And spread the news of the Great Chu army's attack to the commoners, claiming that the Great Chu army has reached the surroundings of Changan and is slaughtering our Da Qian commoners!"

"In addition, act according to the plan, while spreading rumors, while claiming that the Empress is guarding the national gate and the monarch is dying for the country, encouraging our Da Qian commoners to defend Changan together!"

"Be sure to mobilize the commoners of Changan to disguise our Da Qian's city wall as having many soldiers and generals!"

Lu Zhen bowed directly, his face full of solemnity, "This general Lu Zhen, obeys the order!"

Gao Yang looked at Qin Zhenguo, "Old General Qin, you take a large army to patrol Changancheng."

"But those who have ulterior motives and those who gather privately in families can be beheaded first and reported later!"

"Also, buy the fine wine from the major wineries in Changan at a normal price. Those who dare to raise prices temporarily, don't talk nonsense, behead them immediately!"

Qin Zhenguo immediately said loudly, "Qin Zhenguo obeys the order!"

"Chancellor Xu..."

"Minister of Works..."

For a time, accompanied by Gao Yang's orderly orders, the entire Da Qian, the entire Changancheng, operated at a terrifying speed!

All this is just to race against time!

Gao Yang took a deep breath.

These have almost reached the limit of what Changancheng can do.

But this is not enough.

To deter Great Chu and destroy their morale, these special means must rely on him.

Now it depends on how much time Great Chu gives him.
