It's just that this hope was quickly dashed.

In the Song army camp outside the city.

"Emperor Qiqi, just now, the last general's subordinates found a secret passage in the corner of the wall, after the exploration of the last general, this secret passage should lead to the city of Nanjing." Cao Han, the general of the Song army, said.

"Oh? The secret passage? Discover the secret passage at this time? Zhao Jiong muttered to himself with a solemn expression.

All the people in the audience didn't dare to speak out, for fear of saying something wrong and upsetting the emperor.

"Oops!" Zhao Jiong thought about it for a long time, and finally came up with a clue, so he slapped his thigh and said loudly.

"Your Majesty, what do you mean?" Cao Han didn't know why, so he asked.

"I'm afraid that the secret passage was deliberately dug by someone, and the purpose of digging this secret passage is obvious, that is, to enter the city. You say, "Who else is so desperate to enter the city now but us?" Zhao Jiong said with a sad face.

"You mean the Liao Army?" Cao Han looked at Zhao Jiong with wide eyes as if he couldn't believe it, and asked.

"Probably no one wants to go into town more than they do. I had intended to besiege the city of Nanjing, to make it a dead city. But now it seems that we cannot afford to delay any longer. Pass my order, and at the second watch this evening, launch a tentative attack on the scale of Xiao from the south of the city. I want to see who sneaked into the city of Nanjing. Zhao Jiong said with a torch in his eyes.

It was a moonless night, and I couldn't see my fingers. The Liao army in the city of Nanjing was after the arrival of Yelu Xuegu's men and horses. Morale was greatly boosted, so they all slept soundly that night. And Yelu Xuegu's men and horses replaced the original tired soldiers to patrol the city tower to protect the safety of the entire city of Nanjing.

Around the second watch, a soldier came to report to Yelu Xuegu: "General, there is a situation in the south of the city!" ”

Yelu Xuegu hurriedly rushed to the south of the city, and as soon as he went up to the city tower, the Song army had already launched an attack. It seems that Song Jun is already impatient.

"Brothers, the swords in your hands should also be stained with blood, and show the blood of your men. These Song dogs who invaded our homeland are driven ◎∏dǐng◎∏diǎn◎∏ small ◎∏ say, .←.⌒os_(); Out of our land! Yelu Xuegu pulled out the sword at his waist and shouted excitedly.

When Jeruhchus brought with him, the army that was defending the city heard this. Immediately, he rushed forward like a chicken.

There were sounds of killing everywhere, and there was blood everywhere, but no one flinched. They knew that if they didn't rush forward at this moment, then the Song army might be able to break through the city of Nanjing. Occupy their homeland. Bullying their families. They are all iron-clad men. They couldn't let those Song people trample the ground under their feet, so they all did their best.

It is said that mourning soldiers will win, especially soldiers like them who do not care about a single qiē in order to protect their homeland. Until dawn. They finally completely repelled this attack of the Song army!

Although this battle was a very small victory in terms of numbers and scale. In the old days, these were not worth mentioning at all. But now, at this moment, its meaning is extraordinarily different. Because this is really a very heavy and inspiring victory for the Liao army defending the city that has been defending the city in a panic.

The sun rose, and the sun shone on the faces of every soldier defending the city, and it looked so peaceful that it was completely impossible to tell that they had just experienced a bloody war.

These are all going to end, and they're all going to get better, everybody thinks so.

However, for Han Derang and Yelu Xuegu, the most powerful officials in Nanjing at this time, this was just the beginning.

Because they couldn't know exactly when the rescue army sent from Shangjing would arrive, they still had to continue to face the hard battle of counterattacking and besieging the Song army. And when exactly this battle will be fought, no one can predict. Therefore, they did not dare to relax in the slightest, and deployed soldiers to rush to work day and night, repair the equipment for defending the city, and strengthen the fortifications of the building. And the team of men and horses brought by Yelu Xuegu also took turns to monitor the city towers on all sides day and night, and took strict precautions.

At the same time, Han Derang asked the spies outside the city to do something secretly. If this thing is successful, then maybe Nanjing City can really be defended. And before this thing is successful, what they have to do is to defend the sovereignty of this land to the death.

Because the first tentative attack had been defeated, Zhao Jiong simply turned his heart on the sidelines and asked the Song army besieging Nanjing City to immediately switch to a full-scale siege of the city, and even the time of the battle changed from the previous night to day.

This attack was very different from the previous one, before it was all about concentrating firepower to hit one place, but now Zhao Jiong has changed the combat plan. He sometimes had the besieging soldiers concentrate in one direction, and sometimes he had the soldiers attack from four directions at the same time. Its purpose is to disrupt the Liao army defending the city, so that they cannot figure out the details, so that they cannot prevent and deal with it.

Fortunately, the city of Nanjing is a battleground for the soldiers of all dynasties, so the solidity of its city wall is unimaginable. It was with such a strong city defense that the Liao army defending the city was able to thigh the Song army's attacks again and again. They knew that they seemed to have no choice but to rely on the high walls and deep trenches to resist desperately. This is their homeland, and once lost, there is nothing left. Therefore, as long as the city is not lost, they can save their lives and their homes.

However, the Song army, which had been besieging the city outside the city, was different, when the siege failed again and again, the soldiers of the Song army no longer had the strong will they had at the beginning. Their sluggish fighting spirit and negative feelings continued to grow and spread outside the city.

At this time, another thing happened that was very unfavorable to the siege of Nanjing.

On this day, a Song soldier dug up a crab while digging in the camp. The soldier felt very strange, because Nanjing is located inland, there are no lakes and no rivers, how can there be crabs? He felt that there might be something else going on in this matter, so he didn't dare to make a decision. So he dedicated this crab to the general Cao Han.

And there has been no progress in the siege operations in the past few days, so Cao Han's heart is very upset. At this time, he was thinking hard about how to break the stalemate, and his bodyguard held the crab that the Song soldier had dug up before.

"How can there be crabs in this inland land?" Cao Han asked curiously.

"General Hui, this was sent by a small soldier in the battalion just now, saying that it was dug from the soil. Because I thought it was very rare, I specially offered it to the general. The personal guard replied.

"In this way, this is indeed a bit rare. As far as this official knows, this crab was originally a thing in the water, and it couldn't leave the water for a moment, and now it was actually dug out of the soil alive, which is really strange! Cao Han frowned and looked at the guards and said.
