Although the surrounding areas of Bozhou City were not cleared, under Li Qiong's instructions, there were indeed no common people left. Everyone entered the city early, but every day they cursed those outside who prevented them from spring plowing. Stinky person.
Therefore, although the Song Dynasty army had kept a certain distance from Bozhou before, and acted as if the general was not surrounded, the middle part became the place where the scouts from both sides were active, and everyone had a tacit understanding. You avoid me and I avoid you, whether it is a small-scale encounter or a large-scale attack, there is no such thing.
Naturally, the defenders of Bozhou would not be stupid enough to go to war with an enemy that was several times their size, especially when the enemy still had the bonus of the Zhao Guan family of the Song Dynasty, while the kings and divisions of the Song Dynasty were waiting for the emperor's order.
Now that the emperor's order has come, this brief stalemate should be over.
On March 12, the twelfth year of Shaoxing, on the first day after Yu Yunwen escaped from Bozhou, all three city gates of Bozhou were surrounded except the north gate. The Song army used artillery carts to fire stones and debris at Bozhou. Porcelain shards, under the instruction of Zhao Guan's family, used the sacks containing everyone's golden soup as weapons. Fortunately, they did not build a few artillery carriages, otherwise, the people of Bozhou would probably have to taste the excrement of the Song Dynasty soldiers.
Hundreds of thousands of people! Five to six thousand horses! Four or five days’ worth!
Thanks to the care of Zhao Guan's family, they specially asked people to mix the sand with everyone's golden soup. At this time, they not only did not pollute the villagers, but also disgusted the sergeants guarding the city of Bozhou.
It’s not that no one has used gold soup before, and some even collect women’s menstrual belts as weapons, but most of them are used when defending the city. The effect of this thing when attacking the city is not great, except for disgusting people. There is no other effect of excrement, so it is better to send more boulders. After the defenders overcome the shadow in their hearts and understand that excrement cannot kill people, they will only look at the attackers like fools. .
In fact, it can kill people.
For example, there was a bag floating in the air at the east city gate. According to the plan, the bag was shot open with a divine arm bow, but the person in charge of archery sneezed and let the arrow fly past the bag. Dozens of kilograms of golden soup happened to hit a person on the city gate... Maybe he was destined for such a disaster, but he was knocked unconscious and died on the spot.
The Song army below the city didn't know about this, and the man in charge of archery was scolded by Han Chang, saying that he was trashing things and wasting firepower.
By the way, it was indeed Han Chang at the east gate. Zhao Guanjia patted his shoulder and said:
"You kid, don't have any ideas. Don't think that I don't mean what I say. Think about it for yourself. Since you have been with me, have you ever encountered any war?"
"The Han'er in Liaodong are also Han'er, and it's the same when you command the Han'er in Huainan. Don't doubt the people you employ, and don't use them the same. I knew this in my previous life."
"I'm not afraid of your disapproval at all, because the war..."
The former king of Zhenguo still remembers Zhao Guanjia's expression at that time. In terms of confidence, arrogance and arrogance, Han Chang originally thought that Wanyan Wushu was already the best in the world, but until he saw Zhao Guanjia's face that day, He just realized that the fourth prince of the Jin Kingdom was even a little humble in front of the Zhao Guan family of the Song Dynasty.
What Zhao Guanjia said was: "In matters like fighting, you are far behind me."
This was the first war he commanded after surrendering. Although he knew that he was only pretending to be a diversion, Han Chang did not dare to be negligent in the slightest. He wasted dozens of kilograms of golden soup. He was heartbroken and wanted to have people hurry up. Now pull it up to make up.
As for Ximen, there is no one else in charge except Captain Zhang. It’s not that Liu Bang trusts him much. Well, trust is indeed trust. It’s just that when it comes to doing ridiculous things, Liu Bang hasn’t found anyone who can compete with him. Zhang Jun is more talented.
He only said that it was mixed with sand, but he came up with the truth and put the stones into the bag. Many defenders could not tell what was in the bag. They only knew that it was not very powerful, but it was just disgusting, and they could not avoid it when they evaded it. I'm not that serious, but I don't want to accidentally win a prize and be smashed to death.
A bag of gold soup and a bag of stones, and occasionally five or six bags of stones and five or six bags of gold, changing the order from time to time, tormenting the guards at the West City Gate to curse, but as soon as they opened their mouths, they tasted the taste of the King of Song Dynasty The smell sent out by the master from the Five Zang Temple made everyone extremely angry. If it hadn't been for the guard's desperate efforts to stop them, they would have opened the city gates one by one and fought to the death with the people outside.
At this time, the real owner, Liu Bang, took Zhao Mi and others to find the place southeast of Bozhou City... The east and north of Bozhou City are surrounded by whirlpools. If the entrance is really here, then the whirlpool will There is a real possibility that water will flood in if the water surges. No wonder Li Qiong believed Xin Zan's words.
Everyone stood behind and to the left and right of the emperor. Leading the way was Zhong Lei. He was holding the map sent by Yu Yunwen... Xin Ciying redrawn it, stamped his feet on the ground and said:
"The official's house, as shown in this picture, should be here."
Without any hesitation, Liu Bang waved his hand:
"Dig, dig the fuck out!"
In addition to the soldiers who surrounded the city on three sides, he still had more than 50,000 people who had not moved. With just one order, hundreds of people started to move with hoes and shovels.
I have to say that this troop transport road is much shallower than Liu Bang imagined. In fact, the hole was only filled with soil to the height of a person, and several trees were even buried underneath... I guess it was Xin Zan alone, and he didn't have that much effort. It's already very good to be able to disguise yourself and be able to look like this.
At least no one noticed, and that would have achieved his goal.
After another cup of tea, the troop transportation path finally appeared in front of everyone's eyes. It was a stone arch door two or three people high and six or seven people wide. It was pitch black inside. Even from a close distance, you could still feel it. The cold wind blowing from inside slapped my face, more violently than the wind outside.
Seeing the things in the book appear in front of his eyes, Xin Ciying was as happy as a child in his fifties or sixties. He wanted to jump up and down on the spot, patting his thighs and laughing:
"It's said in "Three Kingdoms" that in the Battle of Guandu, Yuan Shao's army shot at the camp, and Cao Cao's army 'made tunnels in the mountains'. This man always likes to do Kung Fu underground. It's really true, it's really true!"
Liu Bang was also very happy, because the appearance of this path showed that the effort he had done before was not useless, but his attention was attracted by the word "Gun Xue" on the stone door.
He had seen these two words in the painting before. At the time, he didn't think they had anything to do with it, but now it seems that it reminds him of something.
Even in the Han Dynasty, the word "gun" has some flaws. Then Cao Cao is not an uneducated person, so he shouldn't make such a mistake.
However, I heard from people that the writing method of "gun" without a dot next to it has been passed down from generation to generation. Normally, it's okay, but when writing calligraphy, "gun" is always used instead.
What is Gon?
Gong is the clothes worn by the emperor. It is not regular clothes. It is something that can only be worn on formal occasions, such as when he ascends the throne or worships heaven. Liu Bang wears Gong clothes when he meets with the envoys of the Jin Kingdom throughout the year.
I heard that that boy was a descendant of Xia Houying's family. I don't know if it's true. Xia Houying was so stupid and had thick eyebrows and big eyes. He didn't expect that his descendants would actually kill his own big man. He stood there and thought about it. All the generals were shocked. I was waiting for his instructions, but I didn't expect the first thing he said to be:
"The word 'gon' is written wrong, please find someone to make up the three points."
This is a cultural relic, and it was written by Wei Wu himself. Xin Ciying couldn't bear to part with it, so he quickly tried to dissuade him:
"His Majesty……"
"Three points to make up, no negotiation."
After finishing speaking, he didn't look at anyone, but seemed to be asking himself:
"I don't know who should go down here."
"You must be brave, resourceful, bold and careful. After all, you can't be ambushed when you lead someone in."
"Hey, who should I send?"
Seeing the emperor pacing back and forth, Zhao Dusang, who had long wanted to prove that he was not a waste, almost looked through his eyes, but Zhao Guan's family refused to kill him. He was so anxious that he almost knelt down and begged Zhao Guan's family to let him go.
Unexpectedly, Yang Yizhong was one step faster than him, directly cupped his fists and bowed:
"I am willing to go."
Liu Bang shook his head: "You can't do it. You haven't been able to do it after fighting for so long before. It's better not to go."
"This city is bound to win today. All you need to do is work with Zhao Mi and stay by my side honestly. When the time comes, you will share the credit."
Yang Du bent down lower:
"If we cannot capture Bozhou today, I am willing to die to apologize."
Liu Bang glanced at him and then at Zhao Mi, who then reacted:
"The same goes for me! If I can't take Bozhou, I will no longer be able to see the official family. Even if I die, I will still deserve it!"
As he spoke, he took off the red tassel on his helmet, raised it above his head, and handed it to Liu Bang.
"In that case..."
He stretched out his hand to take Hongying and gently put it back on Zhao Mi's head:
"Then you two go together. You will be the vanguard and Yang Yizhong will be the deputy."
"In everything we do, we must prioritize the destruction of the city. If there are any obstacles..."
Seeing Zhao Mi getting a little excited, Liu Bang patted him on the shoulder and said:
"Kill without mercy."
