The Struggle of the Reborn Prince

Kong Yanzhou's plan was shocked as soon as four of them were released. Once the Lianghe River water was released, it would flood all the outside of the city. All workshops were suspended and fertile fields were destroyed, and it would be difficult to recover for many years. The Song army was blocked, but the economy of Liaoyang Prefecture was also

It will be a fatal blow, and forcibly entering the fort will also cause dissatisfaction among the people who suffered heavy losses, so it is extremely difficult to order this decision to be implemented.

"Sir, the officials think this plan is feasible. If the Song army breaks the dike and releases water, it will cause us great damage. Compared with us, the losses will be much smaller, and it can block the enemy from the outside, and the two powers will harm each other.

It is better to take the lighter than to lose Liaoyang to the opponent." Wanyan Tuhesu first expressed his supportive attitude.

"Sir, the Song army is close to you. When Zhao Er's army arrives, it will attack the city. There is not much time left for us to prepare. You must make plans early." Liaoyang Defense Envoy Jiagu Wuli added,

He fought with the Song army many times, and of course he knew the power of the artillery and thought he was not an opponent.

Jiagu Wuli Bu is sixty years old, and he is also a young man joining the army. He followed Wanyan Loushi to attack Liao, attack Gao Yongchang, followed Taizu to attack Linhuang Mansion, and Suixie also took Dading Mansion to help Zong Wang attack Song and surrender.

Yanjing Prefecture. But he also experienced the defeat of Wuma Mountain and the destruction of Yanjing City. He was very happy in life and had rich combat experience. Because his troops lived in muddy waters for generations, he was tired of fighting in the court, so he asked to return to his hometown to defend Liaoyang.

I wanted to enjoy my old age, but I didn't expect to wear armor and fight on the battlefield again.

"This... Liaoyang is my place of money and food. Once it is completely destroyed, I am afraid that the emperor will blame it." Wanyan Yong was still hesitant and ordered the flooding of the city to be saved, even if the city is kept, he would still eat it after he was investigated.

No sin.

"Sir, the matter of the Emperor's peace with the Southern Dynasties has been decided long ago. According to the Left Prime Minister, Zhao Er wanted to use Liaoyang as the boundary. Under such circumstances, I think the Emperor would agree. At that time, Liaoyang will become the front line and a war may break out at any time.

Things outside the city will be destroyed sooner or later." Li Qiong was anxious. This was the only solution to the problem at present, so he quickly persuaded him to make up his mind.

"Sir, the Song army will arrive soon, and we don't have much time left. If the Song army is at the city, tens of thousands of cannons will be launched and the people and the city will be destroyed, it will be too late to regret it. If your descendants are punished, the emperor is willing to bear it with all his strength!

"Wanyan suddenly stood up and saluted. The left-behind capital was in charge of the military and political affairs of the local government, which was equivalent to the local emperor. Wanyan Yong could not implement it without nodding. He understood that this was the only opportunity that Liaoyang City could be saved, so he could only stand up and ask again

.

"Sir, I am willing to advance and retreat with you!" Li Qiong, Kong Yanzhou, Jiagu Wulibu and other civil and military officials bowed together.

"Okay, let's use water as a soldier to flood the city and resist the enemy. If something happens, the general will take care of it." Wanyan Yong gritted his teeth and said, "So you will immediately give the list and let the residents outside the city enter the city. The Qingye of Chibi cannot give Song

The army left behind available items; Kong Yanzhou, you immediately checked the dam site, selected the location of the dike, and planned the plan. This commander granted you full authority; Li Qiong and Jiagu Wuli Bu, you two are responsible for recruiting civilians and military soldiers,

Construction will start immediately after the dam site is selected and must be completed within four days. Just wait for the Song army to break the dike and release the water immediately as soon as it arrives."

"Secretary and others should follow the commander's order!" The generals saluted and immediately left the palace to act according to the assignment...

..............

"What does Wanyan Yong want to do?" Ma Wei murmured while walking in the handsome tent.

The scouts reported the news early the morning before yesterday. At dawn, the Jin army set up obstacles in the river, drove away the villages outside the city, moved the residents of the fortress to the city, and then set fire to the fire without leaving any of them. However, a large number of Ding Zhuang were sent to the city to siege the city and dig moats.

The digging soil was piled up into earthen trunks a hundred steps outside the city. At first, Ma Wei didn't take it seriously, thinking that the Jin army was clearing the fields of the Red Cliffs. The siege of the city was just to consolidate the city's defense.

But the situation became increasingly wrong. Liaoyang City sent tens of thousands of people. Not only were there civilians, but also a large number of soldiers, working day and night, the bottom of the built earth pile was three meters wide, and it was also used.

The reinforcement of giant trees and stones did not look like an obstacle to intercept the Song army, but it seemed like another city wall was built. By the third day, it was amazing. The barrier had been built more than two meters high, almost

The city walls are the same high and are still increasing.

Guanshishan Camp also reported that the Jin army retreated ten miles away overnight, as if it was shrinking the city defense. They had followed forward and confronted each other three miles away. Last night, they quietly retreated ten miles again, five miles away from the city.

In the camp, Liu Bao and others were very puzzled by the inexplicable actions of the Jin army. They suspected that the Jurchens were making any tricks to lure them into the army alone, so they asked for advice on whether to advance or retreat.

The abnormality is a monster. The boundary trenches built by the Jin Kingdom spent a lot of manpower and material resources to block the footsteps of the Song army, and the example of Jinzhou City being bombarded into ruins by cannons is right in front of me. But Wanyan Yong still built a camp and had heavy troops

The city defense approach is too strange. In this way, they not only lose their defense depth, but also dig their own graves and trap themselves in the city, and they can't escape even if they want to.

Ma Wei couldn't figure out what Wanyan Yong wanted to do and dared not advance rashly. He ordered Liu Bao to send many scouts to investigate the situation and then advance in succession. In particular, he should pay attention to whether there were enemy troops lurking on both wings and trying to do tricks such as night attacks.

. At the same time, he ordered the Marine Corps and the Navy to clear the obstacles arranged by the Jin army in the Lianghe River, approached Liaoyang City, cleared the periphery, and when the emperor arrived, he joined forces to attack the city and captured Liaoyang City in one fell swoop...

Two days later, Zhao Qiong took a boat into Lianghe. Ma Wei led the generals to meet for thirty miles. After the king and his ministers met, they each sat down. After a few greetings, the topic naturally shifted to the current war. Ma Wei talked about the Jin army for a few days.

A strange behavior is that the camp outside the city has now been built with the efforts of tens of thousands of people, while the Jin army outside the city has retreated again and again. Yesterday, they retreated into the city without even demolishing the camp tent.

"Oh, where are the navy and infantry and cavalry now?" Zhao Qi asked immediately after hearing this.

"Your Majesty, the navy warships have penetrated into Lianghe less than five miles away from the city. The infantry and cavalry occupied the Jin army camp and were three miles away from the city. After Your Majesty arrived, the whole army will attack the city together." Ma Wei said.

"Zhao Lian, where did Gao Chong and the others go?" Zhao Qi turned around and asked after hearing this.

"Your Majesty, I reported yesterday that Gao Shuai had passed Guanshishan Pass yesterday. According to the time and distance, it should be less than twenty miles away from the city." Zhao Lian replied.

"Hurry and send someone to send an order to stop Gao Chong's advance, and the tiger generals and the Leopard Wing Army quickly retreat to the vicinity of Guanshishan. If necessary, abandon the baggage they carry, and do not make any mistakes; the fleet will stop moving forward immediately, and the Ma Wei ordered you to send the ship in advance

The team can retreat to the vicinity of Sanjiangkou to meet us, and there is no delay." Zhao Qi's face changed and pointed to the sand table of Liaoyang Prefecture and said.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Although Zhao Lian and Ma Wei were not sure, they did not dare to ask again when they saw the emperor's face was not good, and immediately sent a separate order. After a while, the two of them returned, and the emperor frowned and pulled the grinding in the cabin.

, Everyone knew that there was something difficult in his heart, and no one dared to say anything, staring at the emperor in circles with big eyes.

"Your Majesty, why have you arrived at the city and suddenly withdrew your troops?" The group of people watched the emperor turn, and their eyes were dizzy. Zhao Yong couldn't help but step forward and asked.

"Oh, this boy Wanyan Yong seems to be loyal, but his heart is so cruel!" Zhao Qi raised his eyes to Zhao Yong, then looked at everyone, and said such inexplicable words.

"Your Majesty, what do you mean?" Zhao Yong asked in confusion, but he thought in his heart that no one is cruel than your Majesty. Tens of thousands of people in Jinzhou City were killed or injured by artillery fire. It's not your idea, but it's not your fault.

Can say it out loud.

"Look at the top of the landform of Liaoyang City, from Baishi Mountain in the southeast to the banks of Hun River in the northwest, the terrain is from high to low, from Zhongshan, low mountains, high hills, low hills, and clear layers, and according to this, it fell to form the southeast high,

The same direction in the northwest is tilted and slowly descending, and a low-lying area is formed between the two rivers." Zhao Qiong asked everyone to return to the sand table and said with a pointing finger.

"Your Majesty, so what? We have already attacked the center of Liaoyang, and there is no obstacle except the city. Why is this hurried retreat?" Ma Wei understood it, and everyone understood it, but I couldn't figure out what it was about retreating.

relation.

"What do you think the high tower built by Wanyan Yong outside the city is for use?" Zhao Qi asked back.

"Of course, it is to prevent our army from approaching the city and trying to block our attack with the trench." Ma Wei said without hesitation, and all the generals nodded, because recent battles have been revolving around this terrain.

"Oh, how did I teach you such a group of idiots!" Zhao Qi gave everyone a 'Bao Li' in a fury, "Then the fuck is clearly a dam to protect the city from flooding."

"Your Majesty means that Wanyan Yong wants to dig the Lianghe embankment and flood the city!" Zhao Yong immediately reacted and said in surprise, not caring about rubbing his head that was so painful that the emperor knocked.

"This plan is indeed cruel. Once our army is at the city, he suddenly digs the embankment, and the river water surging down and can't hide. I'm afraid that tens of thousands of us will become fish and turtles in the river!" Zhao Lian was also shocked.

, said with sigh.

"Yes, the embankment was dug out, the river water dropped sharply, and our warships would be stranded. At that time, the Jin army could only ride a small boat to clean up our entire fleet." Ma Wei said, putting down his hand rubbing his head.

, "No, I have to urge myself to let the fleet retreat quickly." After saying that, he ran out of the cabin, jumped into a fast ship and left...

"Fortunately, Your Majesty saw Wanyan Yong's tricks clearly and made a quick decision to order the withdrawal of his troops. Otherwise, our tens of thousands of troops would be destroyed under the city of Liaoyang and would be destroyed in this surging water for several years!" When the Jin army found that they were lured under the city of Liaoyang!

The Song army suddenly withdrew. When the rear army stopped moving forward, they realized that their plan had been discovered. Wanyan Yong immediately ordered people to dig a large embankment. The Lianghe River water rolled down, and the water level suddenly dropped for more than a meter. The water flowing for more than ten miles changed slightly.

Slowly, Gao Chong looked at Liaoyang City in the Ze Kingdom under the sunset and sighed. (To be continued)
