Chapter 148: You have a good plan, I have a wall ladder
"Marshal, what should we do with these two people?" Lu Junyi stepped forward and bowed and asked.
"Kill!" Zhao Gou said two words calmly, as if he was speaking, it was very flat, without any fluctuations, hearing Lu Junyi and the others dumbfounded, their surprise was not finished, Zhao Gou continued: "In addition, there is no need for this person to stay, and kill them together!" ”
The other person Zhao Gou was referring to was Fang Tianding, Fang Tianding saw that Zhao Gou had given the order to kill, he chuckled in his heart, and looked at Zhao Gou who was breezy and calm, knowing that he was not as simple as he seemed on the surface. For Zhao Gou, the dead brothers are irreparable, no matter how long it takes, they will not give in, and killing them can be regarded as a tribute to the dead brothers.
Fang Tianding smiled calmly: "Now it seems that you only have the majesty of the commander of an army, and this prince really underestimates you." ”
Zhao Gou sneered, ignored them, and directly ordered someone to take the three of them out and kill them on the spot, leaving no trace. Fang Tianding walked towards the guillotine, looking calm and relaxed, not afraid at all, and secretly thought: "Father, you are right, he is really the natural enemy of our army. If we don't get rid of him, we won't be able to take the world. It's just that I didn't expect that there would be such a figure in the Song Dynasty, if he is given enough time, he will definitely be able to gallop the world, no one can be defeated, father, you have to be careful. ”
Fang Tian couldn't help but think of what Fang La had told him the night before he left, after Fang La made the arrangements, he left him alone for a conversation between father and son, he asked puzzledly: "Father, do you have anything to tell your son to stay?" ”
Fang La said in a deep voice: "I have decided to leave Hangzhou City in your hands, and you will control all affairs." However, this is a dangerous task that only you can accomplish. Song Jun knew that you, the crown prince, were in Hangzhou, so he naturally guessed that I was also here, and he would not turn his attention elsewhere. ”
Fang Tianding exclaimed: "Father, our army is already entrenched here, no matter how powerful the Song army is, it is impossible to break through our army's defenses and attack Hangzhou City, if Father Emperor is no longer in Hangzhou City at this time, what should I do?" ”
"Stay in the green mountains without worrying about no firewood!" Fang La sighed, "I'm too arrogant, and I also underestimate the commander of the Song army. Although the city of Hangzhou is impregnable, as long as it is not a large-scale attack, it is difficult to break through the defense of our army. It's a pity that I underestimate the combat effectiveness of the Song army, and I am too arrogant, and judging from the current situation, it is only a matter of time before I break through the city of Hangzhou. ”
Fang Tianding said: "Since this is the case, can we withdraw our troops?" ”
"Withdrawal?" Fang La said bitterly, "If I can withdraw the army, how can I be willing to defend Hangzhou." If our army withdraws in a big way, it will definitely alarm the Song army, and even the morale of our army will be shaken. If this is really the case, then we will be defeated, it will be difficult to turn over, and only one person will sit in Hangzhou City to attract everyone's attention, and then wait for the opportunity to move. ”
Fang Tianding was silent, he knew that this time he would definitely be dead without a place to be buried. Although he is the crown prince, he is a little reluctant in his heart. If you die like this, you can't die vigorously, and you are somewhat unwilling. However, Fang Tianding had to agree in his heart.
If this is not done, the commander of the Song army will inevitably know that his army will no longer have any generals, and it will inevitably become a plate of scattered sand. At that time, it was even easier for the Song army to break through Hangzhou, and the commander of the first army was to stabilize the morale of the army, and he was also the commander-in-chief of the operation, and there must be no mistakes. If there is no one on their side, they will lose their mastermind, and then the generals will fight separately, and the end and end will not be connected, and it will be useless to resist the offensive of the Song army.
Fang La sighed: "I know that this matter is very dangerous, but I say that there is no life or death. But if we don't, none of us fathers and sons will live. Now, I want to know what's going on in your mind? Answer me truthfully, and do not conceal anything. ”
Fang Tianding replied: "Erchen is willing to stay!" ”
Fang La looked at Fang Tianding intently, the pain in his heart could be imagined, if there was a way, no one would want to let his son take this risk. If this is not done, then the uprising led by Fang La will be completely defeated, and he will never be able to make a comeback, and he will be defeated by the Song army, and he will not escape death when he returns to Bianjing in the future.
Rats leave a sinking ship!
The rebel army was formed by Fang La's gathering, even if Fang Tianding was the crown prince, he would not be able to control the power. Considering the overall situation, Fang Tianding could only do this, if he didn't make a choice, the army would definitely be defeated at that time, and it would be impossible to escape at that time. Leaving Qingshan without worrying about running out of firewood, as long as Fang La does not die, even if he dies in battle, he can make a comeback again.
Fang La glanced at it reluctantly, he was also very entangled, and he didn't know what to do. If you don't, you're going to fail. If you do this, you will have a chance to fight back again and take the city. In front of the country and the family, Fang La chose the country, put aside his personal feelings, and only thought about the emperor's hegemony.
So, Fang La quietly changed into the clothes of a Song soldier that night, disguised himself as a pawn, guarded the city gate, and immediately abandoned the city and fled as long as the Song army attacked. Moreover, in order to attract Zhao Gou's attention, Fang La also left the left and right protectors, and found a person with a similar body shape and not weak martial arts from Manichaeism to disguise himself as the right protector, and the right protector changed into his appearance and sat on Cai Jing's mansion.
Fang La knew in his heart that after Zhao Gou broke through the city, he would not be able to find himself, so he would inevitably lead the army to this place, so as to delay Zhao Gou's footsteps and give him more time to escape. Sure enough, just as Tong Fangla thought in his heart, the Song army attacked continuously, and took advantage of the situation to open the city gate, and drove straight into the city, and he took advantage of the chaos to leave.
Fang La's heart ached, in a good situation, he was actually overturned by the Song army led by Zhao Gou, attacked Hangzhou City, and captured his own generals, he was worried, he knew that all this was because of Zhao Gou. If it weren't for the leadership of the commander of the Song army, everything would not be like this.
Looking at the city of Hangzhou from afar, where the smoke was everywhere, the war was raging, and the screams were incessant, Fang La secretly swore and said: "Zhao Gou, I will definitely find you to settle the general account one day, and let you watch me lead the army to break through Bianjing City and capture the Dog Emperor alive, and at that time, I will use your blood to pay tribute to the souls of the dead in battle." ”
Fang Tianding, the left and right protectors and others were all pushed out of the city gate and beheaded, and Song Jiang asked in a low voice: "Marshal, Fang La doesn't know where to go, what should we do next?" ”
Zhao Gou smiled indifferently and said: "It is not difficult to guess Fang La's whereabouts, our army has already captured most of his country, and only those few places can escape." If I'm not mistaken, he must have gone there. ”
Wu Yong said in surprise: "What did the marshal say about Shezhou and Muzhou? ”
"Yes, these are the two places!" Zhao Gou said, "Now, our army has captured the city of Hangzhou, and only our army in the south has not yet arrived. Didn't the generals find out that half of the enemy's main force was not in Hangzhou City? I think Fang La must know that our army will definitely be able to break through Hangzhou, prepare in advance, take advantage of the chaos to escape, and order half of the troops to go first, thinking of the way back. ”
"Now, our army has captured all the cities north of Hangzhou City, and only Shezhou, Muzhou, and his old nest Qingxi Town have not been occupied. Moreover, these two cities have a dangerous pass, easy to defend and difficult to attack, as long as he is still there, there is no worry about no soldiers available, it is expected that he must have fled to the south, but I don't know where he is in Muzhou, Shezhou or Qingxi Town. ”
Wu Yong answered: "In this way, our army will divide its troops into two ways and attack in two ways, as long as it breaks through Muzhou and Shezhou, the two armies will converge and approach Qingxi Town, so that even if it is in the old lair, it can be forced out by Huanglong." Otherwise, if our army deals with him, I don't know how long it will take, and only in this way can we force him to comply. ”
Lu Junyi said in a deep voice: "However, Shezhou and Muzhou each have Yuling Pass and Wulongling dangerous places, and if you want to break through, I am afraid that it is not much better than Hangzhou City." ”
Zhao Gou nodded and said: "What Lu Xianfeng said is very true, these two places are indeed very important, and they are the last line of defense for Fang La, as long as they break through the two places, they can directly take the two cities of Shezhou and Muzhou." At that time, Qingxi Town was also in the bag, and it could be easily attacked. Therefore, Ben Shuai decided to divide his troops to attack, take the two cities directly, and then gather in one place to approach Qingxi Town, it is bound to capture Fang La alive, as for the others who surrender, they will not be killed, and those who would rather die than give in will be killed. ”
So, Zhao Gou once again divided the army into two parts, one army led by Lu Junyi, and the other army led by himself, and then the two armies attacked the city in order to reduce the time. However, the danger also increased, and the life and death of the soldiers could only be left to fate.
