Qiu Muling Zhonglian had already gone down to the city, commanded the remaining 10,000 mobile troops, and went out of the trench to line up. When Puliuru Bosheng saw the banner of the city, he commanded the various commanders in the circle formation, alternately covered, and retreated backwards.

The five commanders formed a small circle formation to block the pursuit of the Jin soldiers, while the other five commanders gradually retreated to the rear. The cavalry of the Jin soldiers wanted to outflank them, but they were pinned down by Guleping.

Wu Ge saw the situation of the Song soldiers, his face was gloomy, the Song army had too few cavalry, and when he retreated, he was easily intercepted by the Jin soldiers.

Sure enough, the five commanders who retreated in the first group stopped, lined up the arrow array, and waited for the five commanders to block the attack, and the Jin soldiers quickly caught up and dragged all the ten commanders of Puliu Ru Bosheng.

There are also two Jin soldiers Meng'an, directly embedded between Puliu Ru Bosheng and Qiu Muling Zhonglian, it seems that the Jin soldiers are ready to leave the entire army of Puliu Ru Bosheng behind.

Wu Ge was very anxious, asked Hu Yangeng for orders, and led his headquarters to the south to participate in the war.

Hu Yangeng groaned: "Yifu is very affectionate, but the responsibility of Yifu is to guard the east wall. ”

"If the east wall is in danger, will the general not rescue the east wall?"

Hu Yangeng was about to agree, but when he saw Qiu Muling Zhonglian's subordinates, carrying hundreds of big tree trunks, neatly arranged, he couldn't help but be happy, and muttered: "They took this out, and they are not afraid of exploding." Then he stopped Wu Ge: "Yifu, let's look at the new toys of the Sajia family." ”

Wu Ge looked with Hu Yangeng's fingers, and saw Dongjun aiming those big tree trunks at the Jin soldiers in front of him, suddenly, there was a loud bang, and the root trunks spewed out dense smoke, and at the same time scattered a piece of something, knocking down the Jin soldiers in front, just when the Jin soldiers shouted horses and neighed, the other tree trunks were like firecrackers, and they exploded with a bang, and Qiu Muling Zhonglian was full of smoke in front of the formation, but the Jin soldiers were swept away.

"What is this?"

Hu Yangeng laughed: "Pine cannon, hollow out the big tree trunk, fill the back with gunpowder, plug the front with broken copper and iron gravel, ignite the gunpowder, and you can use fine hard objects to kill." "The method of making pine cannons is clearly written in the militia manual, and ordinary farmers can make them as long as they have an axe. In the era of the Anti-Japanese War, it was used as heavy firepower by the guerrillas, and it could confront the 38 big cover under specific terrain conditions, not to mention the seven-pound weak bow of the Jin soldiers.

This round of pine cannon killings really shocked the Jin soldiers, and took this opportunity to take advantage of this opportunity to take over the cover of Qiu Muling Zhonglian and Puliu Ru Bosheng and retreat to the trench area.

"The general has such a sharp weapon, how can he not promote the whole army."

Promote the whole army? The effect of Ka Qiusha and the pine cannon surprised Jin Bing, and Song Bing just got a respite. Tomorrow, Jin Bing will come back to his senses, these two weapons that are far from mature, are not of much use in the Battle of Bianliang.

After the Song army withdrew to the trenches, the counterweight trebuchets on the city began to exert their might, and the Jin soldiers quickly withdrew from the south of the city, leaving the battlefield full of corpses to the Song army to clean up. The Jin soldiers did not attack again throughout the day, but to the south of Bianliang City, the Jin soldiers had already driven the people to build a barracks. And due to the difficulty of the fierce battle with the Jin soldiers in the morning, the Song army did not send troops to leave the protection of the trebuchets to intervene.

"The gold thief is going to besiege the city."

Hu Yangeng returned to the Yujin Garden camp, on the one hand, he used two new weapons today, so he naturally had to summarize and discuss. On the other hand, ask the king for instructions on what to do in the future.

"Bianliang's grain storage is still enough to eat in March, and the gold thief may not be able to hold out in March." As the commander-in-chief, Wang Yu did not panic, "But we must send a messenger to Yingchang to let Han Tao and Peng Xi pay attention to the movements of the gold camp and harass the gold thief's grain team." Although Wang Yu did not experience the first siege of Bianliang by the Jin soldiers, he also had a specific understanding of the situation at that time. Dissecting the corpse of the gold thief found that the Jin soldiers only had black beans to feed the horses in their stomachs, which shows that the grain of the Jin soldiers may not be able to support the siege of the city for three months.

After Hu Yangeng and Wei Dingguo, Ling Zhen and others discussed the gains and losses of the new weapon, and got out of the big tent, it was time to Shen, the sky had become dark, Hu Yangeng looked at the clouds condensed in the sky, and said in his heart: "It's going to snow." ”

When the time came, the snow fell one after another. The Song soldiers who were originally arranged to sleep in the trenches all withdrew to their camps, but the sentry posts were still there, and they were not afraid of the Jin soldiers' sneak attack overnight.

There were also a few light snowfalls a while ago, and there was thin ice on the banks of Bianshui and Cai River. Wu Ge got into the tent where Hu Yangeng was and shouted: "Sure enough, this is the real heavy snow, this snow, I'm afraid that I won't freeze to death that gang of gold thieves." ”

Huyan Geng was not so optimistic, generally speaking, snow is not good for the besieging side and good for the defenders. But Jin people have always been tenacious, and they are used to staying in bitter cold places, so they may not be able to survive this winter. On the other hand, the Song soldiers did not have complete clothes in winter, and many sergeants were still wearing single clothes, and they were fine when they started fighting, but when they were not fighting, they all relied on hiding in the camp tents to keep warm. The only thing that made Hu Yangeng feel a little relieved was that this time and space had carried out the clearing of the strong walls, and the surrounding big trees were all included in the city, and the Song soldiers were not short of firewood for the time being.

Hu Yangeng slept until midnight, and suddenly the alarm bell was loud, and the Jin soldiers really took advantage of the snow night to steal the camp, but fortunately, the Song soldiers did not withdraw their posts, and after a small fight in four places, the night fell silent. There was no bad news coming from the north and west walls, and they didn't let Jin Bing take much advantage.

But after yesterday's battle, the Song soldiers did not find any effective way to prevent the Jin soldiers from continuing to build a camp in the south. Not only that, but the west and north sides seemed to be deaf, and yesterday the fighting in the south was in full swing, and I did not see anyone sent from those two sides to inquire about the situation. Hu Yangeng thought: The Privy Council doesn't seem to have fulfilled its responsibility of centering and deploying, I don't know what Uncle Zhang is busy with at night? It's snowing, and I don't know if Uncle Zhang has adopted that method.

At this moment, Zhang Shuye was summoning Liu Ju, the military officer of the capital, Yin Xu Bingzhe of Kaifeng Mansion and others, to discuss the purchase of winter clothes for the soldiers defending the city.

After listening to Uncle Zhang's chattering at night, Xu Bingzhe sat down without saying a word.

Liu Ju said: "The treasury of the Ministry of War, the armor and weapons are still in use, but there are not many winter clothes, and they still need to be purchased in Kaifeng Mansion." ”

Seeing that Xu Bingzhe was like an old monk and didn't speak for a long time, Uncle Zhang called softly: "Xu Fu Yin, Xu Fu Yin ......"

Xu Bingzhe suddenly woke up: "Ah, the gold thief is very hateful, buy new clothes, winter clothes, winter clothes need to be purchased." ”

"Fu Yin is right, the winter clothes of more than 100,000 Bianliang defenders must be purchased."

"It's not easy to buy this." Xu Bingzhe said, "During the Xuanhe and Zhenghe years, Cai Jing, Yang Jian and other thieves bought and bought many times, causing public resentment to boil and chaos to break out. What he meant by this, Kaifeng Mansion did not accept this job.

Uncle Zhang and Liu Ju rubbed for a long time, and Xu Bingzhe pushed the second gear and pushed the responsibility cleanly. The three of them discussed for a long time, but there was no result.

Uncle Zhang returned to the back hall at night, and a short black fat man next to him asked softly, "What is Enxiang's trouble?" ”

Uncle Zhang said about the purchase of winter clothes at night. The black Humpty Dumpty man laughed, "What's so hard about this? Song Jiang has a strategy, dedicated to the privy. Borrow money. "It turns out that the black Humpty Dumpty man in front of Uncle Zhang is Song Jiang. He and Wu Yong and other Liangshan subordinates were broken by Zhang Shuye, and after being captured, they surrendered to Zhang Shuye and participated in the battle of Zhengfangla.

According to the record of "Eastern Capital Affairs": "In the second year of Song Xuanhe, Fang La made a rebellion and trapped 52 counties in six states, which was very vigorous. Uncle Zhang recruited Liangshan Song Jiang at night, and it was Xin Xingzong, the former commander of the Xihe army, who gave thousands of people and ordered the attack on Hangzhou. Hangzhou thief side seven Buddhas, there are 60,000 people, Song Jiang used a plan to break it, captured, the old family of more than 100 people also suffered more than half of the casualties. The Chinese army commanded Jiang and other merits, and Xin Qizong said: 'Jiang and others were originally Jiangyang thieves, although they had merit in breaking the city, but they atonement for their previous sins. 'The ruler Wang Yu did not dare to fight, and Song Jiang and others retired and disappeared for life. ”

According to this account, Song Jiang's credit for taking Hangzhou was taken away by Xin Xingzong. However, Song Jiang, Wu Yong and others did not go into hiding, but were used as staff by Zhang Shuye.

Song Jiang suggested that Uncle Zhang borrow money at night and use the property in the palace of the Zhao official family as a guarantee.

Uncle Zhang was a little hesitant: What should I do if I can't borrow it? Really copied the old bottom of Zhao Guan's family? Song Jiang said with a smile: "The king will win." "Are you afraid that you won't be able to pay off the bill if you win the war? If I lose, do I still need to pay the bill?

Song Jiang saw that Uncle Zhang was still hesitating, and he was thinking in his heart, the nobles of the national dynasty really have a solid family background, and the Huyan family was able to take out 150,000 yuan at once, it turned out that Huyan Geng found Song Jiang and gave the idea. After Hu Yangeng arrived in Bianjing, on the one hand, he made friends with Zhang Shuye's two sons, and on the other hand, he tried to find a way to deal with Zhang Shuye's staff. So let Qiu Muling Zhonglian make friends with Song Jiang, and when Qiu Muling Zhonglian pretended to be drunk and chanted "Dare to laugh at Huang Chao is not a husband", he was cited by Song Jiang as a confidant, at least on the surface.

At this moment, Zhang Shuye asked: "If you want to borrow like this, Gongming, you take a charter out."

Song Jiang took out the charter that had been prepared earlier, and Zhang Shuye discussed it with Liu Ju again, and for a while, he couldn't think of any other way, so he had to ask Zhao Huan to issue an edict.

He first asked Zhao Huan to solve the problem of winter clothes, and Zhao Huan also put on a bright appearance, and ordered that "all ministries and institutes cooperate with Zhang Shumi to prepare winter clothes, and command the implementation from top to bottom." But Sun Yu, a member of the Zhongshu House, wrote his will, but it became a question of where to publish it.

It is said that the army's winter clothes are under the control of the Privy Council, but Zhang Shuye has already checked the treasury under the jurisdiction of the Privy Council, and it is really empty, so he has to find another way. Some ministers said that they were under the control of the household department, but the household department was only in charge of civil taxes, but they could not manage winter clothes, and some said that they were under the control of Shaofu and Taifu, but Taifu Temple and Shaofu Temple are now their own officials, and they are just fictitious titles, not to mention winter clothes, and there are not even a few horses of linen.

In the end, Uncle Zhang sighed at night: "Why don't you give an order to the Privy Council, let the Privy Council raise money, and then hand it over to the city to buy winter clothes." ”

As soon as this method came out, everyone said that it was good. Uncle Zhang then asked for another decree, please use the royal property as a guarantee. Zhao Huan was holding Mingjun's style, and he didn't think that anyone really dared to ask the emperor for an account, so he agreed with a smile: "Zhang Qing's family, it's just that the army needs it, just borrow it, and I will give you the cover." ”
