0230 Dust Explosion (3rd Shift)
Kim Rushan immediately set off for the city of Pyongyang.
At this time, the Baekje army was completely different from the previous days, and the high morale was gone, and there was a sense of solemnity and depression.
They failed to take this lonely city for several days, and their side suffered heavy casualties, which was a very big blow to morale.
Fuyu looked at the city from afar, and there was an extra layer of haze in his heart. But at this point, there is no way back, and no matter what the cost, the city must be taken.
When his subordinates reported to Jin Rushan and asked for a meeting, and also brought the method of breaking the city, his expression was very exciting.
There is doubt, there is curiosity, there is anger......
Doubting whether Tang Guo could do it, curious what they would do.
The angry thing is that Tang Guo obviously has a way but has not come up with it until now, isn't this a deliberate consumption of Baekje's power, look at his jokes?
But he didn't show his anger, because anger doesn't solve anything. If Tang Guo can break this city, it will also be a good thing for him.
So he immediately asked people to invite Jin Rushan in.
"I heard that the golden shopkeeper has a way to break this city?"
Jin Rushan affirmed: "There is indeed a way, which can break this city in two days at most." ”
Fuyu nodded, didn't ask whether it was true or not, but said, "What do you want?" ”
Jin Rushan praised: "The king is wise, everything in the city, population, wealth, food, etc., belongs to my Tang Kingdom." ”
Fuyu's expression suddenly fell, and he said, "Impossible." I, Baekje, sacrificed so many people to take Lelang County, how can I give you the fruits of victory. ”
Jin Rushan said with a smile: "Then it depends on whether you want the land or the rich people in this city." ”
Buyeo said, "I want them all." ”
Jin Rushan said: "Human nature, since this is the case, there is nothing to talk about, the king continues to attack the city." In the next farewell. ”
After saying that, he turned around and left, without dragging his feet.
Fuyu Ju knew that he was taking care of himself, but he still had to call out to him and said, "The money in the city can be given to you." ”
Jin Rushan stopped and said, "The king said that he laughed, the Goguryeo people have already taken away valuable things, and the remaining money is not worth our dealing." ”
"Well, I know that Baekje needs food supplies from the city, and money to reward the soldiers. We don't want any of these, just the population, how? ”
Fuyu Ju immediately understood that what the other party really liked was the population, and he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
He has no interest in these people, and it doesn't matter if they have a better one, anyway, there will be a large number of immigrants from the country later.
But he was very uncomfortable with giving people to the Tang people like this, so he said: "There are nearly 50,000 people in this city, and I can only give you 10,000 at most." ”
Jin Rushan said: "Everyone, this is the reserve price we are selling. Oh yes, after the city is broken, it is inevitable that there will be killings of people. ”
"In order to avoid unnecessary verbal disputes, 30,000, after the city is broken, we will have 30,000 living people, one-third of them must be young and strong, and not one less."
Fuyu Ju's face was a little ugly, he did have the idea of slaughtering the city after the city was broken.
The excuse is also very sufficient, the siege soldiers have heavy casualties in their hearts, they are angry, out of control, and he has no choice.
But Jin Rushan's words plugged this loophole.
Seeing that the other party had thought about everything, Fuyu Ju also knew that there was no room for bargaining, so he said:
"Okay, it's 30,000. After the city is broken, I will hand over these 30,000 people to you, along with all the Han people in Lelang County. ”
Jin Rushan said: "Happy, but I still need the king to provide a battalion of manpower and a hundred pieces of flour." ”
Fuyu said incomprehensibly: "Flour, what do you want it to do?" ”
Jin Rushan said: "You don't have to worry about this, we have our own use, it must be white flour." ”
Fuyu also knew that he couldn't ask anything, so he said, "Okay, I'll let someone pick it up right away." ”
Soon Liu Meng came to the front of Pyongyang with a company of officers and soldiers, chose a direction, and let those Goguryeo soldiers dig tunnels where arrows could not shoot.
The generals of Baekje also heard about this and came over to watch.
When I saw them digging tunnels, there was a lot of discussion.
"What are they doing? You can't dig a tunnel to get to the city, right? ”
"Don't they know that the foundations of the walls are deep and strong?"
"Even if you dig through and enter the city, others will block the hole and kill them, and you can still set it on fire, isn't it sent to death?"
"That's it?"
Most of the Baekje generals were disdainful, and some even shouted mockery.
A small number of people did not express their opinions, such a simple reason Tang people should not be unaware, they may have other intentions in doing this.
At the entrance of the tunnel in the distance, Yang Dun elbowed Liu Mao next to him and said, "Hey, you see that group of Baekje people and stupid hats, will they be scared to pee out when the city is broken." ”
Liu Mao smiled: "I don't know if they will be scared to pee, I know that you were so scared that you lay on the ground and couldn't stand up for a long time." ”
Yang Dun smashed him and said angrily: "Do you want to die?" ”
In the distance, Lu Yan frowned and shouted, "You two take care of your mouths, and be careful that the head of the regiment punishes you." ”
The two of them hurriedly closed their mouths and secretly looked at Liu Meng. Seeing that he didn't pay attention to himself, he breathed a sigh of relief.
The Goguryeo people in the city also discovered that they were digging tunnels and trying to attack with arrows, but they couldn't shoot at too far away, so they stopped wasting arrows.
Gauss immediately had the buildings behind the walls cleared, and sent more men to patrol, preparing to teach the other side a lesson when the tunnel entrance was dug through.
A battalion of soldiers took turns digging tunnels under the city walls in less than a day.
At this point, Liu Meng did not let them continue to dig into the city, but dug down, digging a space the size of three houses under the city wall.
Then a hundred hubars of flour were brought in, and a few barrels of fire oil were brought in, and then the men were let go.
He took Lu Yan and the others into it, raised the flour, and did not withdraw until he could no longer breathe.
The wooden stakes were knocked out, the dirt above them fell to seal the tunnel entrance, and the reserved fire rope was lit.
Then turn around and run.
What does it mean that the Goguryeo people on the city wall have a question mark on their heads, digging for several days and then destroying it? Is it fun?
And these people are all white powder, are they rolling in the powder pile?
The people of Baekje also have the same question, what are these Tang people doing? Do you sprinkle flour in a hole in the ground and play?
Fuyuju's face also became gloomy, and he thought he had been tricked.
Dig a hole and throw some flour into it to break the city? When did flour have such power?
If they hadn't known that they had thrown the flour into a hole in the ground, they would have thought that they were sending warmth to the Goguryeo people in the city.
No, this group of Tang people must be arrested and killed in order to relieve the hatred in their hearts.
Before he could open his mouth, he heard a dull "boom", and then felt the ground vibrate.
What's going on? Did the ground move (earthquake)?
As soon as this thought arose, another louder 'boom' sounded, and the ground moved more violently.
This time he finally determined that the sound and vibration were coming from under the walls of Pyongyang, or rather from the cave.
