500. Happy flaws
Soon, hundreds of hot air balloons rose into the air.
Chengtou was happy and thoughtful, "Do you use this trick again?" Wen Tianxiang, you know that this trick will not work, what kind of mind do you have? ”
He waved his hand back, "Let the soldiers disguised as the people come up." ”
Under the city, thousands of "people" were escorted to the head of the city.
It's just that there is inevitably some sighing in my heart. Unexpectedly, this method could only be used to restrain the Song Army's Flying Army.
This method is undoubtedly unkind.
But Chaozhong has never been able to develop a weapon to deal with hot air balloons, but he has no other way.
Looking at the hot air balloon rising into the sky, his happy eyes gradually became firm again. In order to defend Fujian, he didn't say benevolence, and he was willing to pay even the biggest price.
"Son of a bitch."
And Ren Wei led the Flying Army to the sky above the head of Minqing City, looked down with a telescope, and couldn't help but curse in his mouth.
He had a hunch that he would use such a method, and now it was not surprising.
Looking at the Yuan army in the city below, Ren Wei knew that he couldn't rely on the advantage of hot air balloons this time. If you want to fight, the flying soldiers can only fight on the ground.
Zhao Dongting now has supreme majesty in the Southern Song Dynasty army, and no one dares to disobey his orders.
So, Ren Wei floated around Minqing County with hundreds of hot air balloons in the air, but he never threw a thunderbolt below.
After probably seeing the defense of the Yuan army, he led the Flying Army back into the army.
Ren Wei came to Wen Tianxiang with a somewhat angry face, "The military order, the Yuan army really takes the people as hostages, and the general will not be able to do it." About 5,000 men were stationed on each of the four walls, and about 2,000 or 3,000 men at each of the corners, ready to aid the gates. ”
Wen Tianxiang nodded lightly, looked at the camp tent set up on the spot behind him, then looked at the city head, and drove forward a little, "Happy, do you just take the lives of the people so seriously?" ”
Happy snorted coldly, "Wen Tianxiang, you don't have the advantage of your tongue, if you want to attack, you can attack." Ben wants to see how good you are. ”
Wen Tianxiang also colored, "The Yuan Dynasty has no way, and it is a matter of time before it loses power." If it weren't for the fact that the emperor of my dynasty loved the people like a son, and wanted to break your Minqing county, our army would not have to blow it away. ”
After that, he said no more, turned his horse's head, and went back to the army.
On this night, the lights were bright in the She civilian military camp outside Minqing County.
The same is true in the city.
However, when everything was quiet, there was a sudden tidal wave of shouts outside the city.
"The Yuan army has no way, and the people are the hostages! Punish them together! ”
"The Yuan army has no way, and the people are the hostages! Punish them together! ”
“……”
Ren Wei took several hot air balloons and flew over Minqing County. Use a telescope to observe the inside of the city.
A look of doubt gradually appeared in his eyes.
Because, with the wave of sound outside the city, there was no movement inside the city.
This doesn't make sense.
Even if the people of Minqing have become accustomed to the oppression of the Yuan Dynasty over the years, in this case, they should not be indifferent.
How could those fathers and elders of the family who were taken hostage to the city not have the slightest act of resistance?
With doubts, Ren Weifei returned to the barracks and reported the matter to Wen Tianxiang.
In the city, there were also soldiers who hurriedly ran to the government office and reported the shouts of the people outside the city and the fact that Ren Wei led the army to patrol the air.
Wen Tianxiang looked puzzled.
Happy's face changed slightly.
Of course, he knew why the people in the city didn't move, because he didn't arrest any of them at all.
However, at this time, the flaws in the city have been exposed, will Wen Tianxiang notice it?
In the battle between the two armies, any uncertain factor may become the straw that will determine the balance of victory and defeat.
After a moment's hesitation, he said happily: "Immediately let the soldiers create a panic in the city!" Burn down some houses! ”
The generals in front of him couldn't help but be stunned, "General, will this cause the people to be resentful?" ”
Happy twisted his face, "It's just burning down some houses, how can they be resentful?" As long as you can hold Minqing County, this loss is nothing, just do it quickly! ”
At that moment, the generals didn't dare to say more, and two people ran towards the outside of the palace hall.
Happy was silent for more than ten seconds, and then said: "The generals listen to the order!" ”
"The last general!"
"Quickly prepare for the battle, if you see the Song Army's Flying Army rising into the air, immediately withdraw from the city, hide in the private house, and wait for the Song Army to enter the city, give a head-on attack!"
But when he gave this order, the generals were slightly stunned.
Someone said: "General, are you still worried that the Song army will break the city?" ”
Happy and solemn: "Wen Tianxiang is far from being as easy to deal with as the generals of the She people. Either way, be careful......"
As he spoke, he returned his gaze to the map of Minqing in the middle of the main hall.
Happy knew very well in his heart that even if he let the soldiers make chaos in the city now, there would be flaws. With Wen Tianxiang's ability, it may not be impossible to see it.
One move is lost, one move is lost.
He really didn't expect Wen Tianxiang to use such a trick to cause the people in the city to mutiny.
He was undoubtedly in a dilemma right now.
If the people are really escorted to the city, I am afraid that there will really be a mutiny in the city. And if he doesn't, Wen Tianxiang will see the flaws, and he will definitely attack the city on a large scale.
Whatever you choose, there are risks.
In the end, he was happy or chose to be tough with Wen Tianxiang. Because he knows how much impact the loss of popular support will have on Minqing.
The Yuan Dynasty looked down on the Han people and extorted violently, and was not treated well by the people. If he stirs up the people's anger again, he can't say that Minqing County will be self-defeating.
……
In the barracks outside the city, Wen Tianxiang paced and pondered for a long time, and his eyes suddenly burst into light, "Those in the city may not be real people. ”
Many of the generals in his tent were puzzled.
Wen Tianxiang said again: "The emperor once said that the people have never been fish and meat to be slaughtered. If the Yuan Dynasty really took the people as hostages, such atrocities, and we fanned the flames outside, the people in the city should not have the slightest movement. Even if some people succumb to the atrocities of the Yuan army, they will never choose to give in. The people of the city...... I'm afraid that Mo is pretending to be Yuan Jun. ”
"Military Order!"
Ren Wei was the first to react, revealing a look of ecstasy, "The last general will lead the Flying Army to blow him up!" ”
Wen Tianxiang was also excited, and nodded: "Okay!" Tonight, be sure to break through Minqing County! ”
But at this moment, outside the tent, a scout suddenly ran into the camp tent, knelt down and said: "Military order, there are fires in the city!" ”
Everyone looked puzzled again and looked at Wen Tianxiang.
Ren Wei said: "Military aircraft order, could it be that the people are only now starting to mutiny?" ”
He was really puzzled, because he had been patrolling the skies over Minqing for a long time before, and it stands to reason that if the people want to mutiny, they should not wait until now.
But why is there a sudden fire in the city?
Wen Tianxiang frowned, contemplative again.
He said to himself, "If you are happy, what will you do at this time?" ”
Then, he slapped his hand heavily on the sand table in the tent and said, "This chaos may be due to the deliberate paralysis of me." Don't bother with it, General Ren, you attack the city quickly! ”
"The last general commands!"
Ren Wei didn't hesitate, and immediately walked out of the tent.
Wen Tianxiang looked at the rest of the generals again and said, "Zhao Da and Zhao Hu listen to the order!" ”
"The last general!"
"When the general bombards the city, you will immediately lead the army to bombard the city gate!"
"The last general commands!"
"The rest of the generals! Quickly assemble the soldiers and wait for the commander to dispatch at any time! ”
"Order!"
And all the generals gave up their hands, and then they went out of their tents.
Wen Tianxiang stared at the sand table with burning eyes, and muttered in his mouth, "Happy, I hope you haven't abandoned the conscience in your heart." Otherwise, Ben will be miserable to you this time. ”
In fact, he didn't dare to be completely sure in his heart whether it was the soldiers or the people who were taken to the city.
No matter how big the possibility is, it is only possible. Nothing can be said without conclusive evidence.
Wen Tianxiang is gambling.
Even if it weren't for the imminent need to take Minqing, he might be able to solve the predicament of Shaowu County, and if it weren't for Zhao Dongting in Shaowu County, he would never have taken such a risk.
As the people's livelihood in Guangxi is getting better and better, the imperial court is thriving. He also more and more agrees with Zhao Dongting's people-oriented thinking.
And happy to know him, he also knows happy.
Happy is not a person like Qin Han who completely disregards human life like a mustard.
So, he's willing to bet this time.
