Chapter 503: Flaws

Zhao Hao thought that Pu Shougeng might secretly Chen Cang because he was too calm, openly bargaining with himself, and secretly sending someone to assassinate him, which was not like being frightened at all, which showed that he had already left a way for himself to retreat. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info and whether it is a high position or a super dominance on the sea, it is nothing more than a huge wealth in the hands of the honor guard. In this era, there was no bank, let alone any depository business, so Pu Shougeng could only hide the accumulated property at home.

"What a cunning man!" If the nest is terminated and the property is confiscated, it is clear that he is not a fart at that time, and he has lost the foundation of his life. But as long as his money is still there, he has a chance to turn over, so it can be said that Pu Shougeng understands that saving his life is as important as protecting his wealth. Thinking that Zhao Ruogang's nouveau riche in Guangzhou also knew how to build a shadow wall with silver and cast gold into a lotus jar to hide. Zhao Yu thought that Pu Shougeng must also have a place to hide gold, and the reason why he didn't flee was to send his accumulated wealth out of the city.

Zhao Hao figured out the key and got confirmation from Ying Jieyan, and Cai Wanyi's words made him conclude that his judgment was correct. The Pu family could not afford to build a secret passage to the outside of the city on their own. However, he can take advantage of the convenience of municipal engineering to connect his culvert with the official flood drain and moat to build a complete escape route. At the moment, only by preemptively blocking Pu Shougeng's escape channel and intercepting the channel for smuggling property, can he be regarded as not coming in vain. And once he launched a general attack, he slipped out and ran away, and it was really a white run to grind the soles of his shoes.

A few people analyzed it, since it is a dark passage, and it is borrowed from water, and the channel that can lead to the outside of the city is nothing more than the water gate opened on the city wall, and the culvert reserved directly from the city wall, but it is not ruled out that Pu Shou Geng will secretly do something from it and reroute the culvert to other places, but no matter how it changes, it will not leave the water. Cai Wanyi is the head of the snake, he led people to first block all the known water gates and dark ditches out of the city, and Zhao Yu ordered the besieging departments to closely monitor the moats around the city, and check whether there are any hidden ditches that have not been found.

It will take time to transfer troops, and the current gathering of troops will inevitably arouse Pu Shougeng's suspicions, which can only be explained by the emperor's arrival, and the purpose is to talk about the conditions for the withdrawal of troops. But everyone was ready for a decisive battle, the little emperor suddenly withdrew, Wen Tianxiang and Zhang Shijie hurriedly went to the city to see what happened.

"Your Majesty, why did you suddenly suspend the attack?" Zhang Shijie asked after he saw the ceremony after going to the city.

"Your Majesty, soldiers are a major national affair, not child's play!" Wen Tianxiang also said with a sullen face, "In the past, the Youwang Beacon played with the princes, so that he lost his trust in the princes and terminated the country, Your Majesty must not repeat the mistakes of the past!" ”

"Minister Wen, cardinal commander, don't worry, Your Majesty ordered the attack to be suspended, there is really a reason...... Ying Jieyan saw that the two of them were very blamed, and immediately took over the conversation and explained.

"Oh, I see, this guy still has a way back, fortunately, His Majesty is vigilant, otherwise if you don't talk about the old thief, those treasures will also be transferred by it!" Zhang Shijie said suddenly, "Your Majesty, but the army is all in formation, just wait for an order, if you wait for a long time without fighting, your morale will be damaged, please decide as soon as possible." ”

"Yesterday, His Majesty made it clear that he would no longer discuss with him the matter of atonement for his sins with money, but now he has mentioned it again, I'm afraid it's not appropriate!" Wen Tianxiang also said.

"I only said that I would suspend the attack, but instead of not fighting today, I will attack immediately when I find out the secret way of escape. Discussing this matter again is just a matter of buying time for the blockade rather than thinking of it as a snake! Zhao Yu saw that Wen Tianxiang was displeased, after all, he reprimanded the two of them last night, and now he regretted it, of course, people were not happy, and they could only say good words.

"I see, but now that it is almost the end of the day, the weather is getting hotter and the heat is attacking, and the soldiers are very tired in their clothes and armor. And the trenches inside and outside the city, if you want to find out one by one, it is definitely not a moment and a half, it is better to fight again tomorrow! Zhang Shijie looked at Tianyan and said.

"Your Majesty, what the cardinal commander said is true, if you delay it for too long, it will not be easy to fight again!" Ying Jieyan also nodded.

"No, the attack will not change today, no matter what the matter is, the attack will be launched at the beginning of noon!" Zhao Yu shook his head and said.

"Your Majesty, don't be reluctant, Pu Shougeng won't gain more than he loses!" Wen Tianxiang thought that his words had stimulated the little emperor and made him angry.

"Needless to say, I have made up my mind." Zhao Hao made a mistake again, and said with a small face, "Wen Xiang sent someone to send a letter to the thief, saying that I want to discuss it with him." The cardinal commander pacified the army, ordered the generals not to slack off, and attack as soon as the time came! ”

"Obey the Divine Commandment!" The two looked at each other, bowed and saluted, and each received his own order.

"Your Majesty, don't be rash!" Seeing that the two of them had gone down to the city, Ying Jieyan stepped forward and whispered persuasion.

"Sir, don't worry, I have my own calculations in this matter, and I am not fooling around!" Zhao Yu said with a grimace and a smile.

"Your Majesty......" Ying Jieyan thought about it and kept his mouth shut, he knew this apprentice too well, and he would never say anything if he didn't calculate it, which was in line with being an emperor.

"Hehe, sir, in another hour, the tide will rise!" Zhao Yu whispered in Ying Jieyan's ear.

"I see, Your Majesty is really thoughtful!" Ying Jieyan listened and pondered for a moment, and immediately came to his senses.

Ying Jieyan knew that the city near the sea and the river generally built a damp-proof gate, which is a one-way opening and closing valve set at the outlet of the drainage pipe to prevent the water from being poured back, and it is a gate with a water baffle suspended from a free-rotating horizontal hinge. It can be located on the mouth of the outlet or on the mouth of the upstream drainage pipe, when the outlet of the drainage pipe channel leads into the water body affected by the tide and the high tide water level is higher than the water outlet, it is closed by the downstream tidal pressure, so that the tide will not pour into the human drainage pipe. When water comes from the upstream drainage pipe, the water flows into the water body through the damp-proof door. When there is no water in the drainage pipe, it is sealed by its own weight, so as to maintain the water level of the water system in the city, that is, it will not let the tide enter the city, and the flood water entering the city can be discharged.

And the little emperor's meaning is very clear, he can delay time through negotiations, and he shows his lenient 'mind' to cure diseases and save people. But once the tide rises, the sluice gate will be automatically closed, and the water system in the city will be completely isolated from the rivers and seas outside the city, and the sluice gate will never be opened by manpower. As long as he can quickly attack Pufu, poor Pu Shougeng will either be drowned in the culvert unless he becomes Wang Ba and can hold his breath in the culvert until the tide recedes......
