Volume 1 Mountains and Rivers Change Hands Chapter 11 Iron Horse Glacier Comes to Dream 1
Zhang Yu said: "Your Highness, our army can open the embankment on the south bank of the Daqing River, divert river water to irrigate Jinan City, and take this city without spending a single soldier." ”
After Zhu Di heard this, his brows tightened, he thought for a while, shook his head and said: "The solitary Jinan is to isolate the north and the south, and the original self-defense in the painting, if this city is destroyed in one fell swoop, the army and the people are all fish and turtles, what good will it do me?" ”
Zhang Yudao: "Our army can first write a letter of persuasion to surrender, order the city to surrender, if not, then break the embankment and flood the city." As soon as the flood came, the soldiers and civilians in the city either surrendered or fought against each other in order to survive. At that time, our army will plug the breach again, which can not only take Jinan, but also not kill and injure more lives. Isn't it beautiful? ”
After Zhu Di heard this, he nodded and said, "Just follow Qing's words." ”
The next day, the Yan army sent a letter of persuasion to surrender into the city, to the effect that it was to persuade the soldiers and people in the city to surrender as soon as possible, if not, they would dig the Daqing River and flood the city with water.
After receiving the letter of persuasion in the city, after half a day, a document was also shot down on the city, and the soldiers of the Yan army did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly sent the letter to the big tent of the king of Yan.
King Yan opened it and looked at it, his face was surprised and happy, and it was uncertain, Zhang Yu boldly asked, "King Yan, how do you reply in the city?" ”
Zhu Di, the king of Yan, shoved the letter into Zhang Yu's hand and said, "Look at it yourself." ”
Zhang Yu unfolded the letter and looked at it, only to see that it was written: "Student Xianning kowtows to His Royal Highness King Yan, and he is terrified!" In the past, the Duke of Zhou was the minister of the Zhou family, and he became the king. Become a king and give an alliance. He said: 'The descendants of all generations will not harm each other.' 'Contained in the League's Mansion, the Taishi's position. Today, the king is the eldest of the sons of Taizu, and he is ordered to guard the border and screen the royal family. The young lord is the heir, and His Royal Highness is no different from the Duke of Zhou to become the king. However, because of a small gap, His Royal Highness once raised an army, rejected the kindness of relatives, betrayed the alliance of orphans, and treated each other as enemies, not only could not look at the back of Zhou Gong, but could almost be compared with Liu Biao. I don't know what the king will look like in the future, and he will see Taizu under the nine springs? Plagiarism is deeply despised by the king. I hope that the king will apologize for his sins, and then repair the alliance well, and will always be the assistant of the domain, the world is safe, and the merit is great, and everyone praises him, saying that the king is the reincarnation of the Duke of Zhou under the ages. I hope the king thinks twice. Student Gao Xianning bowed again. Jianwen 2nd year May Xin Si"
Zhang Yu smiled after seeing it: "The view of rotten Confucianism, why worry about it." ”
Zhu Di nodded and said: "Yes, since the city refuses to surrender, don't blame this king for turning his face and being ruthless, you bring your own troops to open the embankment and teach them a lesson." But this Xiucai is a good person, and when the city is broken, his life must not be ruined. ”
Zhang Yu obeyed the order, and went out of the account to prepare.
In the evening of the same day, the Yan army moved to a high place and sent people to pick up the embankment of the Daqing River, and the river water gushed out and poured straight into Jinan City.
Tie Xuan has been busy guarding the city for a few days, he is very tired, and he was busy until midnight before going to sleep, not long after falling asleep, he was suddenly awakened by a rapid knock on the door, he rubbed his sleepy eyes, got up and opened the door, only to see a guard panting and said: "Tie participates in politics, the big thing is not good, the flood is coming." ”
Tie Xuan suddenly woke up and said, "Really? Where did the water go? ”
The guard said: "It has already flooded to the hole in the city gate, and if it overflows the city wall, the whole city will be full of fish and turtles." Tie Sen in politics should think of a way. ”
Tie Xuan hurriedly said, "Take me to the city to have a look." ”
At this time, the day was bright, and the guards hurriedly led Tie Xuan out of the palace, through the cross street, to the top of the city, Tie Xuan looked out of the city, a bright and bright water, flooding the fields, villages, trees, etc. outside the city, and there were furniture, farm tools, livestock, and dead bodies floating on the water, like hell on earth.
Tie Xuan sighed suddenly: "I didn't expect this Yan King to be so ruthless. These are the people of the Zhu family, and he actually abandoned them. ”
A person behind him sighed: "The Yan thief has gone so mad for his own selfish interests. ”
Tie Xuan looked back and saw that the person who came was Gao Wei, who had joined the army.
Tie Xuan hurriedly grabbed Gao Wei's hand and said, "Gao joins the army, how do you think you deal with today's matter?" ”
Gao Wei thought for a while and said, "I think it's better to call Sheng Yong and Zhang Shixing together to discuss countermeasures." ”
Tie Xuan nodded and said, "So far, it's all about it." ”
Tie Xuan and Gao Wei hurriedly returned to their homes and summoned Sheng Yong and Zhang Shixing to come over to discuss countermeasures.
Tie Xuan's face turned pale and said: "I received a letter of persuasion from King Yan before, and without consulting with everyone, I asked Gao Xianning, a student of Tai, to reply to him and refused to surrender. Today's flooding of Jinan, for the hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians in the city, I am willing to surrender the city, but the matter is big, so I summoned everyone to come to discuss, what do you think? ”
Sheng Yong was overshadowed and said: "Since Tie Shenzheng said so, for the sake of the people of the city, I am willing to surrender." ”
Zhang Shixing said angrily: "Shixing and Yan thieves are incompatible, they will never surrender, and they are willing to die to repay the country." ”
Tie Xuan looked at Gao Wei again and asked, "What does Gao want to do with joining the army?" ”
Gao Wei said indifferently: "I am willing to surrender." ”
Tie Xuan resolutely said: "Since most of them are willing to surrender, I will reply to King Yan, and I am willing to lead 300,000 soldiers and civilians in Jinan City to surrender, hoping that he will not commit any crimes after entering the city, and after everything is settled, I will give an explanation to the emperor." Commander Zhang is unwilling to surrender, so I will find a small boat to send you out of the city, and you can go south. ”
Zhang Shixing said to everyone: "Everyone, I have taken my leave." Then he departed.
Gao Wei smiled: "This drop is not the other one, I'm talking about fraud." ”
When they heard this, they were all very interested, and they gathered around him to hear him say how to deceive him.
Gao Wei said slowly: "I had a relationship with that swallow thief, and I have some friendship. I went to the Yan camp this time, and said that the city was afraid of being flooded, so I came to beg to surrender, the Yan thief must not be guarded, will block the breach, and after the water recedes, I will introduce him into the urn city, and the kings ambushed the city to kill it in one fell swoop, which not only solves the danger of Jinan, but also destroys the thief for the country, isn't it killing two birds with one stone. ”
Tie Xuan slapped his thigh and shouted, "Clever plan, wonderful plan." ”
Sheng Yong said: "The Yan thief is extremely cunning, and Gao joining the army may not be able to lure him into the city." ”
Gao Wei said: "That's okay, as long as the water recedes, Jinan City can be safe." The Daqing River is not like the Yellow River, there is not so much water. It is impossible for the Yan army to break down twice. ”
Zhang Shixing glanced at Gao Wei and said: "Gao joins the army to go to Yan Ying, if he enters the tiger's den, if the Yan thief does not allow the invitation, I am afraid that there will be a mistake." ”
Gao Wei said: "If I can save the people of the city from the flood, my personal safety has already been put on the line." ”
Tie Xuan stood up, knelt down and kowtowed to him, and said, "I, Tie Xuan, thank Gao Gong on behalf of the people of the whole city." ”
Gao Wei hurriedly helped him up, and said angrily: "If I can exchange my life for the lives of the soldiers and civilians in the city, I Gao Wei will die a well-deserved death." ”
When Sheng Yong and Zhang Shixing heard this, they also bowed and thanked him.
The four of them sat down again, and then carefully discussed how to enter the Yan camp to surrender, how to ambush and other details, the plan has been decided, and the next day Gao Wei took a small boat and came to the Yan army camp to surrender.
When King Yan heard the news, he ordered someone to introduce him into the big tent of the Chinese army.
As soon as Gao Wei saw King Yan, he knelt down and kowtowed, saying, "Join the army Gao Wei knock to see His Royal Highness King Yan." ”
King Yan said coldly: "Gao Senjun came this time, what is the so-called matter?" Do you come again to persuade this king to apologize and submit to the court? ”
Gao Wei hurriedly kowtowed again and said, "Weichen doesn't dare." On behalf of the 300,000 soldiers and civilians of Jinan City, Weichen came to beg for surrender, hoping that His Royal Highness would remember that these are the people left behind by Emperor Gao, raise their noble hands, and spare their lives, otherwise the people of the whole city will be fish and turtles. I can't thank you enough. ”
King Yan snorted and said, "Now that I know that I am afraid, I don't know how to lift." The whole city can surrender, but that Zhang Shi can't. ”
Gao Wei said: "Commander Zhang knew that he would not tolerate King Yan, and he had already fled south of the city. ”
King Yan said: "This is very good. He turned his head to Zhang Yu and said, "Shimei, you go and block the breach and solve the crisis in Jinan first." ”
Zhang Yu arched his hand and said, "Obey." Then he went out of the camp to block the breach of the Daqing River.
King Yan said to Gao Wei: "Gao Wei, now I have ordered someone to block the pass, when will you come to surrender Jinan City." ”
Gao Wei said: "When the water recedes, the minister will personally lead the king into the city." ”
King Yan stared at him and said, "If you dare to lie to me, you will be broken into pieces." ”
Gao Wei's face did not change and said: "The minister swears to the sky that he will never dare to deceive the king." ”
Ten days later, the water receded, the guards of Jinan City were withdrawn, the loess mat road, and the clean water splashed the street. Zhu Di led the army to the city, only to see Tie Xuan kneeling in the city gate cave and kowtowing: "The traitorous ministers have seized power, so that the king has come to the city in the frost and dew, and he will worry about the society." Who in the world is not the son of Emperor Gao? Who was not a subject of Emperor Gao? It is reasonable for him to descend to His Highness. However, the people of the East China Sea did not practice military revolution, saw the army pressing the border, did not know the meaning of the king and the people, or gathered and annihilated, and were terrified. Therefore, Weichen dared to ask the king to retreat ten miles, ride into the city alone, and the ministers waited for a pot of pulp and cow wine to welcome. ”
When Zhang Yu heard this, he stepped forward and said to Zhu Di: "Your Highness, I'm afraid there is fraud in it." The last general is willing to enter the city for the king to find out. ”
Zhu Di looked at the quiet and empty city, and the city gate was full of people kneeling, not like there was an ambush, so he waved his hand and said: "It's okay, this king enters and exits the enemy formation, as if walking on the ground, not to mention this small Jinan Mansion." ”
After that, he said to Gao Wei: "Lead the way in front of the head." ”
So Gao Wei led the way, Zheng He opened the Huangluo umbrella to cover the back, and Zhu Di, the king of Yan, rode a high-headed horse in the center, with four guards, slowly walked across the suspension bridge and came to the city of Jinan.
Tie Xuan kowtowed and said, "Congratulations to His Royal Highness King Yan Chitose Chitose!" ”
The people behind him also shouted: "Welcome His Royal Highness King Yan Chitose Chitose." ”
King Yan bowed his head and said to everyone: "Everyone, you are flat." ”
As soon as the words fell, a loud bang was suddenly heard, and an iron plate the size of a desktop fell from the sky. When King Yan heard the wind, he subconsciously pushed the horse backwards, and the iron plate smashed on the horse's head, and smashed the horse to the point that his brain burst and fell to the ground, and Zhu Di was thrown to the ground at once.
A common man kneeling behind Tie Xuan jumped up, holding a steel knife, and rushed towards Zhu Di, who was dressed by Sheng Yong, the commander of the capital.
Zheng He saw that the situation was urgent, and smashed the Huangluo umbrella cover in his hand towards Sheng Yong's head, the umbrella cover was huge, and Sheng Yong was hanged in it and couldn't get out for a while.
Zheng He hurriedly jumped off the horse and helped Zhu Di onto the horse, Zhu Di hurriedly turned the horse's head and wanted to escape back to his own position, as soon as he stepped on the suspension bridge, the suspension bridge creaked and rose. Zhu Di had no choice but to retreat, and at this moment he and Zheng He and other four guards were isolated in the trench, facing each other from their own army.
Zhang Shixing poked his head out of the city and shouted to Zhu Di: "Yan thief, where are you fleeing this time?" ”
