Volume 9 Saving the Sky Chapter 732 [Exhausting Personnel]
Tokyo Bianliang is a rectangular city, consisting of three castles of Miyagi, Inner City and Outer City, which is very neat, and the size of the city even exceeds that of Tang Chang'an Castle. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Among them, the imperial city is about two miles wide (900 meters) from north to south, and half a mile (200 meters) wide from east to west; The inner city is the old city, which is six and a half miles long (2,900 meters) from north to south and five miles wide (2,600 meters) from east to west; The outer city, the new city, is twelve miles (5,800 meters) long from north to south and ten miles (4,800 meters) wide from east to west.
Not to mention the offensive of the Jin army, let's just say that on the wall of this outer city that is nearly fifty miles long, how many defenders do you have to stand to be full?
In addition, there are seventeen gates in the outer city alone, including four water gates, and how many soldiers do you need to guard these gates?
In addition, as far as the Song army knows from the reconnaissance now, the Jin army's siege method is extremely tragic, and it still uses the traditional tactics of arrows and rain of arrows and ants. But the Jin army is ferocious, and everyone has a bloodthirsty aura and is good at breaking through the face with points, even the Liao army, which is far stronger than the Song army, cannot resist the Jin army's siege, and where does the Song army find the confidence to block the Jin army's offensive?
Therefore, it is better to concentrate his troops on the inner city of more than 20 miles to hold on to the inner city of only more than 20 miles. Moreover, the inner city was built in the Later Zhou Dynasty, and it has been repaired and maintained very well since the dynasties, and the defensive function has not been damaged much.
Moreover, according to the strategy of the Seed Master, once the Jin army broke through the outer city to attack the inner city, and then planted and folded the two military ranks and tails, and sealed the exit of the outer city, wouldn't it be a urn to catch turtles?
At the same time that the four of them were arguing about the feasibility of the "Bianliang Codex" of the Cultivation Master's Dao, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty and even the people slowly woke up at this time. First of all, both Shizhong and Zhe Keshi were generals of the Western Army, and the imperial court did not put them in the northwest to guard them well, but transferred them to Gyeonggi to serve as envoys and observers, what was the intention?
There are also Li Gang and Zong Ze, who inexplicably transferred the two to Tokyo to guard and Shao Yin and the envoys of the four walls, and what is their intention?
For a time, all kinds of theories were rampant, and far-sighted people were also aware of the rise of the Jin State, and began to worry that once the Jin State successfully destroyed the Liao, it would be possible to take the Great Song Dynasty to the knife. Of course, there are also some people who claim to be half of the Zhao family, thinking that today is the Son of Heaven alive, and the Jin people who could be bought with money in the past captured the land of Yanyun for the Great Song Dynasty, and now they are afraid that they can also use money to buy the Great Song Dynasty Ping'an.
In this world, there is obviously no one who can't get along with money!
The Great Song court's response to these rumors was to send a huge delegation headed by Tong Guan at the end of June, with Wang Hao, Li Bangyan and Cai You as deputies, first to Xiongzhou to relieve the army, and then Li Bangyan as the main envoy to Jin to negotiate the ransom of the six northwestern states again.
Seeing that the court was so confident, many uncomfortable remarks quickly dispersed.
During this period, the seed division and Zhe Keshi also successively transferred the seed army and the fold army in place, among which the 28,000 seed army led by the seed division was stationed outside the daimyo's mansion, and a large camp was built ten miles northwest of the city, and it was practiced day and night. The 16,000 Zhejia army of Zhe Keshi chose the garrison in Xiangzhou, Hebei (now Anyang), echoing the Daimyo's mansion.
As for Li Gang and Zong Ze, because they were in full view of Bianliang, they didn't dare to make any big moves. First of all, in the name of repair, Li Gang recruited people and craftsmen, and under the pretext of repairing the outer city of Tokyo, he overhauled the walls of the inner and outer cities. Then, in the name of preparation, Zong Ze carried out a drastic combing of the Tokyo Forbidden Army, strictly investigated the phenomenon of empty salaries and redundant officials and soldiers, and reduced the Great Song Forbidden Army, which was originally known as the 80th People, to a real number of 270,000.
While the four of them were acting according to the policy in various parts of Gyeonggi, there was not much movement on the Huangzhou side. In addition to the time in May, there was a firm in Yingchang Mansion that wanted to contract the construction of a two-way four-car official road from Yingchang Mansion to Bianliang, and was willing to advance funds in advance, which attracted the Yingchang business community to hear the wind and finally raised nearly 200,000 yuan in the form of shares, and the government had to agree to start construction, but there was really nothing else that happened.
However, only the people of Huangzhou slowly discovered that since April, although the Longshan Academy under the Huilong Mountain is still reading loudly, but the Yuche Academy located next to the Tuanfeng Mountain in the north of Huangzhou has fallen silent, and in the past ten days and a half months, you can see a large group of people and horses driving chariots to travel, and the spectacular scene of the drill in the huge campus of the college is no longer seen, and the whole college has fallen into a dead silence.
And the people in Xishui County also found that thunder was rarely heard in the thunder mountain today, and there were many caravans in the lively mountain roads in the past.
In addition, in the Yangtze River water market in front of Huangzhou City, although the fishermen and boatmen who make a living here have found that there have been many more businessmen who have settled in Huangzhou in recent days, these people have disappeared after they have been scattered into Huangzhou.
Not to mention this kind of situation, but on the tenth day of August of this year, a military order was issued from the Imperial Chariot Army, requiring Yue Fei and 500 elite cavalry, who had been stranded in Huangzhou for a year, to return to the camp.
Before leaving, Huang Jie summoned Yue Fei to the study, and the two were speechless to sit and drink tea.
At this time, Huang Jie, because he didn't have to show his face, naturally he didn't have to put on makeup and fake himself, so his face was as good as ordinary people. But when he saw that he poured a cup of tea and Yue Fei, he also smiled and said, "Senior brother is here, but what else is there to understand?" ”
Yue Fei took the teacup and drank it, and then asked solemnly: "Senior brother's plan for the New Year, Xiao Fei also cares about it, but he doesn't quite understand, since Senior Brother has such preparations, why don't you go directly to the imperial court and deal with it as soon as possible?" ”
Huang Jie smiled when he heard this, thought about it for a while, and then said: "There is an old woman in a certain village, who has the ability to communicate yin and yang, and she will be warned by heaven one day, saying that when the stone lion's eyes at the head of the village bleed, there will be a big disaster in the village." Since then, the old woman has been guarding the stone lion every day, and is regarded as a mad demon by the villagers. Over time, they scoffed at it, and one day the naughty children in the village were playing, and someone found the eyes of the lion with chicken blood, and the old woman saw this and reported the warning to the villagers, but no one believed it. However, that night, the river embankment in front of the village suddenly collapsed, and the river flooded the village, killing the village except for the old woman's family. Xiao Fei thinks, what is the explanation of this matter? ”
When Yue Fei heard this, his face was strange, and he didn't say anything for a long time.
Huang Jie smiled lightly, got up and came to the window, looked north, and said, "Xiaofei, let's go to Tokyo, everything will be done according to the plan!" ”
When Yue Fei heard this, he also got up and said yes, but after thinking about it, he wanted to say it and stopped, so Huang Jie also came to pour him a cup of tea again, and then said with a smile: "In this underworld, everything has a number of days, and I just wait to do my best and obey the destiny of heaven!"
