Chapter 43, the fire burns Shangguan

On the tenth day of entering the city, after the hard work of the Dali army and civilians, the food in the city was barely enough to eat for two months, and the reinforcement of the city wall was successfully completed. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info stone throwing machine and giant crossbow each rushed to make a sample, and Qin Muxue and Xiaobai were testing the results at the foot of Cangshan Mountain.

Yang Yu sent ten barrels of black oil and ten barrels of gunpowder to Chu Lianjun, and at Qin Muxue's suggestion, he also collected five hundred quilts and sent them over. At the same time, more than 500 fishing boats were requisitioned, and they could reach the place designated by Chu Lianjun at about night.

Today, General Yang Hu woke up, and after listening to his son's briefing, he was very satisfied, and fell asleep again. Zhao Piaopiao followed Yang Yu to the military aircraft tent to take a look, and it happened that Qin Muxue and Xiaobai were noisy and ran back......

"I said a long time ago that this wood is not good, but you want to use it, now it's okay, it's all falling apart and ruined, it's all because of you, a little Khitan ghost!"

"Eh, what are you talking about, I don't know that poplar trees are of poor quality? Tell me where to find good wood!" “

The two suddenly saw that Yang Yu's mother was also there, Qin Muxue looked embarrassed, and hurriedly shouted "Auntie" and stopped talking, while Xiaobai didn't bite a word.

"Ah Yu, what's the matter with the wood they are talking about?" Zhao Piaopiao asked puzzled, and Yang Yu told him about the stone throwing machine and the giant crossbow in one hundred and fifty ten.

Zhao Piaopiao pondered for a while, and immediately thought of a place, and approached to tell his son.

"What? Chongsheng Temple! Grandma, that's a royal temple, no matter how good the wood in it is, I'm afraid it can't be moved! Yang Yu screamed in shock.

"Ah Yu, special methods should be practiced during special periods, you should borrow these woods, and return them later!" Zhao Piaopiao was calm and smiled, trying to convince his son.

Qin Muxue immediately jumped out, excited and overjoyed, and shouted again and again: "As long as there is good wood, it doesn't matter where he is!" “

Xiaobai rolled his eyes at her, pointed at her and scolded: "I think you dare to tear down even the palace of the palace!" “

Qin Mu Xue said happily: "Is there a palace?" Let's go and tear it down! Ha ha! “

Seeing that she was so excited, Yang Yu didn't dare to object for a while.

Zhao Piaopiao saw everything in his eyes, and said with a smile: "My family Ah Yu has grown up, and I can't listen to my mother's words, but I like to listen to other words very much." “

She said that she looked at Qin Muxue, got up with a smile and went back to continue to take care of Yang Hu, making the blushing Yang Yu at a loss.

"Let's go, Chongsheng Temple will tear down the wood!"

Qin Muxue smiled and pulled up Xiao Baifei and ran out, Yang Yu didn't dare to stop him, so he hurriedly chased him out and reminded loudly: "You remember to call Red Blood to go together!" Then he hurriedly sent someone to the palace to report to His Majesty the Emperor.

The war was tense, and the people in the vicinity fled to the capital to seek refuge, and refugees from Shanju and Jianchang Prefectures, which had been captured by the Western Xia army, also came......

The Yang Mansion took great pains to evacuate the population of the city, and now that a large number of people are pouring in, Yang Yu is about to give the order to drive it away, and the holy decree has come...... The king of Dali ordered the Yang Mansion to receive all the people who came to defect.

The emperors of Dali have cared for the people of Limin, and the last sentence of the holy decree is very bloody: "...... If I can't protect my people, how can I resist the enemy! What kind of face do you have to meet the ancestors of the Chongsheng Temple after death! “

…… Chongsheng Temple!

Yang Yu's eyebrows jumped after hearing this, and he was sincerely afraid to accept the holy decree.

He immediately summoned all the generals in the city, personally read the emperor's edict, and ordered the construction of a camp at the foot of Cangshan Mountain for the refugees to live, and at the same time stationed 500 soldiers to manage and strictly investigate suspected secret agents.

After everything was arranged, Qin Muxue came back.

"Where's Xiaobai? Are things going well with wood? Yang Yu was weak-hearted, and asked about others again and again.

"This dead girl has to play with red blood, the wood is going very well, and the monks in the temple are still helping to dismantle it!"

Yang Yu was overjoyed after hearing this, and hugged Qin Muxue and kissed her on the mouth.

"Oops! Don't make a fuss, I'm covered in sweat and mud, you don't like it......" Qin Muxue was shy and hurriedly broke free.

"I heard that there was a large number of refugees outside the city and rushed back, how about it? Did you drive them all to Xiaguan? “

"This ...... Belch...... His Majesty the Emperor has decreed the reception of refugees, and I have ordered them to be encamped at the foot of the Cangshan Mountain. “

"What...... Why are you Dali King so confused, it was not easy to accumulate some food, and now there is a steady stream of people coming, how many mouths do you have to add! “

"Ayuki...... His Majesty the Emperor is right, these people's homes were destroyed and came to defect, if they don't take them in, it is indeed unreasonable, so don't be angry, okay? “

Qin Muxue glared at him with raised eyebrows, and said angrily: "When the time comes, the 200,000 troops of Western Xia will come to besiege the city, and after the city runs out of food, the tragedy of the ancient Yizi eating and splitting bones will be staged, I don't think you and your King Dali will think like this!" “

Yang Yu grinned and coaxed softly: "How could such a tragic thing happen, isn't there still a wolf killing knife Qin Muxue, her wisdom is comparable to Zhou Yu and Kong Ming!" “

Qin Muxue was amused and laughed like a flower, she patted Yang Yu's shoulder vigorously and said, "Ah Yu, when will you learn to pat my ass!" Ha ha! It's weird for me to shoot it. “

Yang Yu thought to himself: The Khitan people really can't boast, this smile is too exaggerated.

Shangguan, Chu Lianjun and Huyan Xiaofeng led elite soldiers to ambush in the dense forest and deep grass, quietly waiting for the arrival of the enemy army.

Zhao Bing and Ling Huke waited anxiously for the five hundred fishing boats on the shore of Erhai Lake.

In the evening, dozens of enemy scouts appeared, and they were let go one by one, and they hurried and did not find the ambush.

After a while, the black banner of the Western Xia army appeared, and a large group of majestic cavalry drove over, all with their heads held high, their faces arrogant, and they looked invincible in the world......

At the north gate of Dali City, four people stood at the head of the city and looked at Shangguan, waiting anxiously.

"According to the calculation of the foot, the enemy vanguard should have been near Shangguan, why is there no movement at all?"

"Huh...... Little devils, they won't fail! “

Yang Yu and the red blood eyes were fixed on Shangguan, they knew in their hearts that the battle of Shangguan would be the last battle before the siege, and if this battle could be won by a big victory, they could frustrate the enemy's morale and boost the morale of the defenders in the city...... If this war is lost, the consequences will be unimaginable.

Yang Yu suddenly remembered something, turned his head and smiled at Red Blood: "Third brother, I was really sorry for you back then......

Red Blood looked back at him and smiled slightly: "...... I haven't even thanked you yet, haha! “

Xiaobai ran over to join in the fun, patted this and that, nodded and said, "Well, a manly man, except for life and death, it is a trivial matter." “

"Look! It's firelight! Qin Muxue jumped up happily and turned her finger upward.

The sky has darkened, and there is indeed a faint red light in the distance, which makes people feel that it is an illusion, and poor eyesight cannot be seen at all, Qin Muxue grew up in the grassland since she was a child, and her eyesight is excellent.

"Wow...... I've seen it too, but it doesn't seem like the fire is too big, is it? Xiaobai was first surprised, then disappointed.

"Let's wait, there is gunpowder and black oil, and there will never be only such a little flame." Yang Yu's thick lips rose slightly, and his tone was very excited.

"When it's darker, there will be wind, and fire will inevitably grow stronger by the wind." Red Blood was full of confidence, and he deeply regretted that he could not participate in this battle.

The fire was slowly increasing, and now a cluster of light could be clearly seen at the head of the city, and the soldiers gathered together to point at the firelight, because the battle was highly secret, and they did not know what was happening.

At this time, a strong hunting wind blows from the direction of Shimonoseki!

After a while, several huge explosions suddenly came from the north, and the cluster of firelight burst up like lightning, turning into a ball of flames that rose into the sky in an instant, instantly illuminating the sky and illuminating the clear Erhai Lake......

"The little devil has succeeded! Ha ha! Xiaobai shouted happily and ran around the city wall, and the soldiers finally understood, and began to shout excitedly, "It's burned!" Go up in flames! Burn them! “

"It's better to burn all the Tangut people to death! Ha ha! It also saves the uncle's shot! “

"Don't burn it out, leave a few for me to receive a reward for meritorious service, haha!"

Red Blood asked Yang Yu with a smile: "Xiaoyu, such a big fire, I'm afraid you can even see it in the palace!" “

Yang Yu reacted at this time, and hurriedly explained a few words to the Yang Mansion's personal soldiers, only to see the personal soldiers hurriedly running in the direction of the palace.

Crimson laughed and said, "Our Emperor doesn't know what to do now...... Hahaha! “

Qin Muxue quietly walked over, looked at Yang Yu, and then at the red blood, and said mysteriously: "Let's guess the three of us, how did Brother Chu burn Shangguan?" When they come back and confirm them one by one, please drink the least guessed. I guess that's how they use gunpowder and black oil...... First bury the powder keg on both sides of the enemy's road, pull out the fuse and hide it in the quilt, then bury the quilt soaked in black oil in the surrounding woods and grass, wait for the enemy vanguard to enter the ambush circle, shoot a rocket to ignite, and then take advantage of the chaos to kill him by surprise! “

Red Blood nodded and said, "I agree with Mu Xue with the ignition method, but the timing of the ignition should be ...... Raid the enemy's forward battalion first, the enemy will see that our army is not large in number and will pursue with all their might, and immediately ignite the fire after the pursuing enemy enters the fire, and the fire can burn a part of the enemy together, and then use a strong crossbow to shoot the enemy, so that it is also convenient to evacuate. “

Yang Yu thought for a while, looked at the fire spreading in Shangguan and said: "When I was a child, I played with Sister A to burn Chibi, and the location was at a pass in Shangguan...... On the shore of Erhai Lake, there are usually many fishing boats docked on the shore, and some old broken boats and fishermen are reluctant to throw away, and they are often placed on higher places, and many are upside down on the side of the road. As long as the gunpowder explodes, the road will also be blown up, and Brother Chu and they will definitely put a group of enemy troops over before igniting the fire, and as soon as the gunpowder explodes along with the fire, this group of enemy troops will become a lone army, and under the surprise attack of the divine soldiers and the five thousand elite soldiers of the Yang Fu army, the whole army will definitely be wiped out! “

Xiaobai had been eavesdropping on the sidelines, and she finally asked: "What you said is quite reasonable, I just can't figure it out a little, why does the gunpowder explode after a while after the fire is ignited?" “

When the three of them thought about it, they all frowned and thought about it......

"I know that there must have been two fires, the first fire was to block the enemy front and rear, and the enemy troops behind were desperately fighting the fire, constantly rushing forward intensively, and then igniting explosives in the back and putting the second fire, the two fires cut the enemy into three sections, and the worst in the middle was burned alive and blown to death!" Xiaobai shook his head and shook his head, and analyzed the head of the way.

Yang Yu nodded in approval, Qin Muxue patted her little head and praised: "Not bad, yes, you have become smart with me!" “

Red Blood also said: "If it is really as Her Royal Highness the Princess said, the gunpowder should be buried between the two fires, only in this way is the most lethal!" “

"And how was the second fire lit? After the first fire is burned, our people will not be able to pass behind the enemy army. Qin Muxue didn't figure it out for a while.

Yang Yu and Red Blood looked at each other and smiled, Xiao Bai raised his small mouth high, and said in a very disdainful tone: "Stupid, isn't there still a small fishing boat?" “

"Ouch! Spare your life, Qin Daxia spare your life......"

Xiaobai was chased and beaten by Qin Muxue, running back and forth around the city wall, causing the soldiers to laugh heartily......
