Everyone can be regarded as an old minister who follows His Majesty, and for so many years they have adapted to the style of the little emperor, participating in a small court meeting like this I don't know how many times, saying that there is something to do, and going to their own hands as soon as they have nothing to do. In less than an hour, Zhao Yu finished handling political affairs and announced the dissolution of the dynasty, but he asked Lu Xiufu, Zhang Shijie, Ni Liang and Lin Zhiwu and other civil and military ministers to discuss the siege of the city.

"Ladies and gentlemen, Lin'an City is close at hand, and it has been our long-cherished wish for many years to return to the city, how to fight you, please give advice!" Back in the second hall, this has been arranged as a suggested command room, with a map hanging on the wall, and a sand table in the middle.

"Your Majesty, Lin'an City is surrounded by water on both sides and mountains on one side, and only the North City is a place where soldiers are used!" Zhang Shijie said first.

"Your Majesty, our army is good at water warfare, and there is a precedent for attacking Quanzhou, and the enemy defense in the east city is weak, and the warships can drive directly to the city, and the subordinates think that they can break the city from everywhere!" Lin Zhiwu said.

"The west of the city is close to the West Lake, and there is a water gate, and the river in the city extends in all directions, you can blow it up, and break into the city with a small boat to carry troops down the river, and the center blooms!" Zheng Yong also suggested attacking the city by water.

"I think that if it is purely about attacking a city, your suggestions are feasible, but what we want is not a ruined city or an empty city, but a base that can provide us with production, life, and support retro." Zhao Yu listened and looked at the left and right words.

"Your Majesty's intention is that this siege is to preserve the facilities in the city and not harm the lives of the people, and after the city is broken, there is no need to make efforts to remediate, and you can use the workshops and personnel in the city to produce weapons and provide supplies." Lu Xiufu pondered for a moment.

"Lu Xiang understands my intentions, that's exactly the case!" Zhao Yu nodded, as if he was very pleased.

"Your Majesty, the houses in Lin'an City are lined up one after another, and they are all made of bamboo and wood. And the two armies will inevitably be killed and injured in the battle, and our army is equipped with firearms, which will inevitably injure innocents when radiating, and ignite houses......" Zhang Shijie frowned.

"The Commander's intentions, I also know that it is difficult to protect the city and avoid hurting the people in a chaotic war, right?" Zhao Yu nodded and asked with a smile.

"Your Majesty Shengming!" Zhang Shijie bowed his hand and said. He also realized the gaffe just now, if he said this, he would have the intention of fighting, and he would show that he was incompetent.

"I also know that it will be difficult, but I can't protect Lin'an, what do we want him to do, just to regain the reputation of the old capital? If it is better to bombard it with a salvo of 10,000 cannons, wouldn't that be more intimidating to the enemy! Zhao Yu said.

"Your Majesty said yes!" The little emperor's words made Lu Xiufu only goosebumps all over his body, which was originally a good word, but it made people uncomfortable when he said it, but he could only say it along with it.

"Your Majesty, we can besiege the city, all the armies in Hangzhou have been annihilated, and there are no more soldiers around to help, and they will have no food and clothing at that time." Zhang Shijie said at this time.

"No, this is the time of urgency of the war, if the siege involves too many troops, it will be difficult for the enemy to come to our army to help, and winter is coming, and the army cannot sleep in the field for a long time. In addition, if Lin'an can't attack for a long time, it will definitely affect morale and make the enemy dare not surrender! Lu Xiufu waved his hand.

"The land minister is reasonable, the recovery of Lin'an cannot be delayed for a long time without fighting, otherwise it will not be conducive to stabilizing Jiangdong, and even affecting the recovery of Jiangnan." Zhao Yu said.

"Your Majesty will speak bluntly if you have any plan, don't let me guess!" The little emperor asked everyone to find a way, this is not good, and it is so bad, but it means that Lin'an must be captured. Ni Liang understood that he must have an idea, but he clenched his fists for everyone to guess, and muttered dissatisfiedly.

"Hehe, you're in a hurry!" Zhao Yu heard it, turned his face and glared at him, but said with a smile.

"I want to attack from here?" Zhao Yu nodded on the sand table.

"Your Majesty wants to attack the city from the south?" Zhang Shijie couldn't figure out why His Majesty set the breakthrough there, and said with some surprise, "Your Majesty, the south of Lin'an City is mountainous, there is almost no access, only the city gate and water gate are set in the southeast corner, and the terrain is complex and narrow, and it is difficult for the army to deploy, which is not conducive to attacking the city." ”

"Your Majesty, it's really inappropriate!" Lu Xiufu also objected, "The southern city wall is close to the imperial city and adjacent to the Ouchi, and there are many palaces and pavilions in the meantime, so it is not a place to use soldiers. ”

"Hehe, but that's the past, not today!" Zhao Yu said with a wry smile when he heard this. Yesterday he had learned from Zhou Mi what the Imperial City was like before, and how miserable it was today.

The Lin'an Palace of the Southern Song Dynasty was expanded on the basis of the original Northern Song Dynasty Hangzhou Prefecture after the decision to take Hangzhou as the "line" in the second year of Shaoxing, and it was called Da Nei. Its location is at the southern end of Lin'an City, ranging from the eastern foot of Fenghuang Mountain to the south of Wansongling, east to the south section of Zhonghe, and south to the north of the Five Dynasties Brahma Temple. There are 30 halls, 33 halls, 4 halls, 7 floors, 20 pavilions, 1 Xuan, 6 Tai, 1 Guan, and 90 pavilions. In addition, there is also the East Palace of the Imperial Palace. It is divided into five parts: the outer court, the inner court, the east palace, the academy and the palace garden.

The outer court lives in the south and west, the inner court is northeast, the east palace is in the southeast, the academy is near the north gate, and the palace garden is in the north. The palace city is surrounded by the imperial city, the south gate of the imperial city is the main gate of Li, the north gate is the Hening gate, there is the Donghua gate in the east, and there is only the back gate of the house in the west. Miyagi has a north and south palace gates opposite the north and south gates of the imperial city.

There are four groups of buildings in the outer courts: Daqing Palace, Vertical Arch Palace, Yanhe Palace, and Duancheng Palace. Daqing Hall is located in the South Palace Gate, is the place of the Great Dynasty, the vertical arch hall is in the north of the west side of the Daqing Palace, the apse is in the north of the vertical arch hall, the Duancheng Hall is in the east of the apse, the vertical arch hall is the palace of the Chang Dynasty, the apse is the place where the emperor meets the winter solstice, the festival of Zhengdan, and the Duancheng Hall is a multi-functional hall, as the suburbs of the Ming Hall are called "Duancheng", the strategist is called "Jiying", the banquet is said to be "Chongde", the martial arts confer official is said to be "speaking of martial arts", and the plaque is changed at any time.

There are many palaces in the inner court, and the emperor's dormitory has Funing Hall and Qinzheng Palace. There is also Jiaming Hall as the emperor's dining place. The queen's dormitory is the Hua Palace, the Kunning Palace, the Ciyuan Palace, the Renming Palace, the Shouli Palace, etc. In the palace, there are also the Hall of Electode where the emperor and his ministers deliberate, the Chongzheng Hall where lectures are held, and the Library Pavilion. In the East Palace, there are palaces used by the prince to study, such as Xinyi Hall, the sleeping hall Yi Zhai, and the Cining Hall used by the Queen Mother, as well as garden buildings such as Boya Building and Xiuchun Hall.

Gonghou Garden faces northwest in the inside, the main hall has Cuihan Hall, Guantang and Lingxu Building, Qingrui Hall and a number of pavilions, there are artificial small West Lakes that imitate the scenery of West Lake in the garden, rockery flying springs, pavilions and pavilions, beautiful. In addition, the academy is also in the Hening Gate, inheriting the system of the North Gate Academy of the Tang Dynasty, outside the door is a series of central institutions including the Taimiao Temple and the six ministries of the three provinces, with the royal road as the axis, distributed from north to south between the areas of Wushan, Ziyang Mountain and the eastern foot of Fenghuang Mountain.

"Your Majesty, the minister knows that there has been a fire in the imperial city, but there will be a legacy!" Lu Xiufu listened to the words of the little emperor and suddenly felt bad.

"The Imperial City and the Sansheng Six Divisions have all been turned into white land, and there are no tiles left." Zhao Yu sighed and said leisurely, and casually stroked on the sand table, sweeping those temple models to the ground.

"Your Majesty, the imperial city is built on the Phoenix Mountain, its north is close to the West Lake, the south is connected to the riverside, the shape is like a flying phoenix, so the name is Phoenix Mountain, the two wings are Xuanzhu, the left book of the lake is the margin, the right sweeps the riverside, the shape is like a flying phoenix, a county of kings, all from this mountain. There is really a rare auspicious place here, after recovering Lin'an, the palace city will be rebuilt, if the army fights here, I am afraid that it will damage the king's spirit! No one spoke for a while, as if they were all recalling the prosperity of the imperial city in the past, and regretting the tragic situation today, Xu Zongren sighed lightly and persuaded.

"Hehe, the spirit of the king, when the dynasty moved to Qiongzhou, someone also persuaded me, saying that Qiongzhou is located in a corner of the country, and there is no king's spirit, and it is difficult to make a difference. But what about today? In the past, Wu Yue built the city to dominate Jiangdong, but now where are they! Zhao Hao smiled and said with a smile, he didn't believe in evil at all.

"This ......" Xu Zongren didn't know how to answer, so he could only retreat.

"Our intention in this battle is to keep the workshops, craftsmen, and warehouses, reduce the casualties of the people, and take Lin'an City completely. Therefore, in this battle, I am ready to use the tactics of encircling three and missing one, and drive the enemy out of the city, but not in the city to fight the enemy in a decisive battle, look here! Zhao Yu said and pointed to the sand table.

Luocheng was a concentrated area of government workshops, which was taken over by the Yuan court after the fall and remained basically intact. In the organization of the three superintendents of the ordnance, the Shaofu and the generals, the distribution of its main workshop area is: the west of the Tribute Courtyard of the Ministry of Rites where the ordnance is located, which is the first military workshop area in the city. The second military workshop area, the Duzuo Yuan, is located in the north of Yongjinmen.

Wensi Academy, divided into two worlds, the service of each craftsman man, located in the southeast of Guanqiao Anguofang, that is, Beiqiao potato. The dyeing workshop is in Yijing Lane, North of the Recommendation Bridge. These two places are the workshop areas to which the Shaofu Supervisor belongs. The East and West Eight Divisions of the Prison are located in Kangyu Fang, which is commonly known as the Eight Divisions Lane. Danfen is located in the south of Pu'an Bridge outside Chongxin Gate, and the curtain foil field is in the west of Chunhu Bridge outside Chongxin Gate. The camp of Xiu Nei Division is in the south of Weichun Cangnan in Dongqingmen. The bottle yard of the Shunai Division kiln is in the east of Chengchun Cangdong.

There are three aspects of the government printing industry, one is the printing workshop of Guozijian printing classics, history, children, and medical books in Jijiaqiao, and the bookplate gate is also located here. The other is the printing workshop of the tea field Huizi library, which prints the huizi. Attached to the tea field in the east capital of Tongjiang Bridge. The paper bureau to which it belongs. It is located on the shore of Chishan Lake, which is quite large-scale. The third is to cross-quote the library to print tea and salt banknotes, and to cross-quote the printing workshop, which is in the gate of Taifu Temple in Baominfang. These three are relatively concentrated and have a certain scale.

There are more than 80 squares inside and outside Luocheng, but the wall of the square has long been demolished, the square system exists in name only, and the Song Dynasty was originally divided into thirteen compartments on top of the square to strengthen the control of the citizens. With the development of the commodity economy, large-scale workshops have been established in shipbuilding, ceramics, textiles, printing, papermaking and other handicrafts in Lin'an City. Specialized bazaars and trading houses are located in and around the city. From the main street and Zhufang lane, the size of the mat, even the door is, the two sides of the street are also lined with shops, there is no one who does not buy and sell, due to the destruction of the fang system, the city system and the relaxation of the night ban, there is also a night market in the city, the buying and selling is endless, the night is three or four drums, the tourists are scarce; Five drums and bells rang, and those who sold the morning market opened shops again.

In the canal in the north of the city, the river boats from the river and Huai are connected to each other, day and night; Chengnan Jiangganyi brings to and from Taizhou, Wenzhou, Fuzhou, Quanzhou and sailing to Japan, Korea and Nanyang countries of the sea ships gathered, and the masts are numerous. In the Southern Song Dynasty, six new cities were added, except for Nantumen City and Beitumen City in Dongcheng, because this area is close to the Grand Canal, the transportation is convenient, and it is the key point for the distribution of goods and business travel, and the rest are distributed in the northeast and northwest suburbs of the city, and there are more in the northwest suburbs.

"Lin'an City has been prosperous since ancient times, and it has been such a scale for another hundred years of operation in our dynasty, if the city is stormed, I don't know how many years it will take to recover, Your Majesty considers it!" Although Lu Xiufu has not spent much time in Lin'an, he can also see the layout. If the siege of the city can take care of a lot, it will be a mess after the war, how to settle the dynasty to move back, and it will take countless money and manpower to rebuild, and he also knows that the battle for the restoration of the country is only the beginning, and it is still difficult to raise the huge military expenses in the future, let alone rebuild Lin'an City.

"Your Majesty commands, the ministers should follow them!" Lu Xiufu approved of the little emperor's idea, and Zhang Shijie no longer insisted on his own opinion, Shi Lidao.

"The main force of the enemy's Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces, the four 10,000 households have been wiped out, it is reported that the land in the city is short of troops, and only 10,000 people are collected by all means, and some of the forcibly recruited Ding Zhuang assists in defending the city, and they do not dare to go out of the city to engage in battle. The Imperial City has been destroyed and abandoned, and the official offices and subordinate officials of the Tartars live in Luocheng, so the main force of its defenders must be concentrated here, and there is no time to take care of the outer city, which gives us an opportunity. Zhao Yu said that the city of Lin'an is not like other cities, the sub-city, the inner city and the outer city are interlocked, like a hollow shape. Rather, Luo Cheng and the outer city were juxtaposed, and the outer city continued to expand eastward with the eastern wall of Luo Cheng.

"In this way, we hid our troops in the eastern mountains, broke the city from Taohuaguan into the imperial city, and sent troops to seize the east and west walls of Luocheng to the north to form a joint encirclement, and the main force went out of the imperial city to squeeze north along the royal street, forcing the enemy to abandon the city and flee. I have such a plan, and the details have not yet been thought through, so you can say what you have to do! ”

"Your Majesty, the wall of the Imperial City is connected to Luocheng, but the east gate of the Imperial City is set in the southeast corner, and the road from Taohuaguan is difficult to walk, and there are moats around. It is better to dig a tunnel under the pass and go straight to the city, and then plant gunpowder to blow up the city wall, so that the three armies can quickly attack the city and make the enemy defenseless! Ni Liang thought about it and said first.

"What Commander Ni said is very true, so that you can highlight the surprise soldiers, and the enemy is not prepared!" Zhang Shijie nodded and said, "The minister thinks that the replenishment fleet has not yet arrived, so he can take the opportunity of surrender to prepare and secretly send troops to dig into the tunnel." In order to confuse the enemy, we can send troops to the north city to set up a fortress to attack the city, and send sailors to enter the Qiantang and West Lake to block the water surface and cut off all communication between the enemy and the outside of the city! ”

"Well, Ni Dutong and Lin Yuhou will formulate a detailed battle plan according to what the cardinal commander said, report it to the cardinal commander for review, and then discuss it!" Zhao Hao took a sip of water, thinking about it, let Zhang Shijie organize the siege of the city, and it can be regarded as an explanation for him to follow him......
