"Yang Yuanjun, can we talk again?"

Tao Qian had no choice but to shout loudly, wanting to negotiate with Yang Zhao.

But Yang Zhao and the others had already retreated beyond the moat, the distance was relatively far, Tao Qian's voice, Yang Zhao couldn't hear it clearly, he could see Tao Qian shouting, and he didn't bother to pay attention to it.

Without a response, Tao Qian's face sank.

There was nothing to talk about, they could only watch the water flow into the canal, and soak in the vicinity of the city wall one after another, although the city wall was blocked, but there were still gaps between the stones blocking the door, and the water could easily penetrate through the gaps.

They could see that water had penetrated into the stones of the city gate, and although it was not a lot, it could also wet a piece of the ground.

Outside the city, more and more.

"What should I do?"

Tao Qian asked everyone again.

They don't know what to do, they can only look at me, I look at you, and then there is no then.

Outside the city.

When Yang Zhao and the others saw that the water diversion was successful, they arranged for hundreds of soldiers to watch and go back to the barracks to rest first.

"In the southeast of Xiapi, there is also a county, called Guangling, at the same time as the stalemate in Xiapi, I still want to take it easily, Wenda led 20,000 troops to take Guangling, Wenhe followed, can it be done?" Yang Zhao asked.

"Yes!"

Li Da said loudly.

Jia Xu said with confidence: "With the prestige and prestige of the lord in Xuzhou, it is not difficult to take Guangling, and when the lord breaks through Picheng, we will definitely be able to come back with good news." ”

Yang Zhao laughed and said, "Okay! I'll leave it to you. ”

They were ordered to go to the camp first to order troops and set off directly to attack Guangling, and the remaining 30,000 people had no problem dealing with a Xiapi who was about to be flooded.

The method of flooding was carried out in the blink of an eye for three days.

The water soaked outside the city of Xiapi is already at a height of a person, and if you want to get close to the city gate, you can only do it by boat.

The city is also a vast ocean, and I don't know how many houses have been soaked and how many people have suffered in the city.

Yang Zhao didn't care about the consequences of the flooding, he just wanted to get the result, anyway, the people in the city, in the end, they only complained about the assassination of Yang Zhao, the greedy and lustful Tao Qian, everything was Tao Qian's fault.

This can also cause the anger of the people in the city, drive the resentment of the soldiers, and make it easier to break the city.

"Lord, are you a little cruel?"

Guo Jia also took this into account and continued: "It may be that I am a person who is easier to be soft-hearted, and if it were Wenhe and Wenyou, I would definitely not think like this." ”

Those two old cowards can sometimes be very ruthless.

"If we don't be ruthless, we can't retreat, or stay here, right?" Yang Zhao said.

It is true that there can be no stalemate and retreat, Guo Jia can understand, he has come and come, if he can't even take a Xiapi, how will he conquer the world in the future?

In any case, even if the means are unscrupulous, Xiapi must be captured.

Yang Zhao said again: "Soak almost, let go of half of the water, and let there be water downstream to irrigate." ”

The soldiers were ordered to dig up the soil that blocked the river, and the water poured down in an instant, and the dry river was finally moistened.

Soak the lower pi and continue.

In the blink of an eye, another seven days passed, and at this time, in Xiapi City, there were many complaints, and the people were complaining, and the people who were soaked had reached the limit, and they had no high-rise buildings at home, so they could only climb to the roof to avoid the soaked water.

"Do you have anything to eat at home? My grain is blistered bad! ”

"My food is still there, but there is no fire, do you have a fire?"

"No ......"

Several people responded at the same time.

They were all on the roof now, and as soon as they lay down, facing the sky, someone shouted, and several neighbors around them could respond.

Either there is no food, or there is no fire to cook and eat, and the things that can be on the roof are very limited, but fortunately it is spring now, not the cold of ice and snow, otherwise many people will die.

As they spoke, the sound of a child crying came.

When they were soaked, people were already very irritable, and there was an even more irritable cry, and they almost couldn't help it.

"It's all Tao Envoy's fault!"

"That's right, it's his fault! is good, he has to assassinate Yang Yuanjun in Qingzhou, and he also wants to rob Yang Yuanjun's fourth wife, if it weren't for him, we wouldn't be like this. ”

"Yang Yuanjun said, just for revenge, only kill Tao Yuanjun alone, but Tao Yuanjun will not surrender to death, and he will drag the people of our whole city to accompany him to die, Yang Yuanjun has no choice but to drown Pi."

"Tao Qian, that dog official, killed our ......"

Voices full of resentment echoed among the people.

At first, they also called out for the envoy, and later called Tao Qian's name.

Not only the people, but even the soldiers in Xiapi are now angry, gritting their teeth with hatred, but they have no choice but to look at the ocean in the city.

"The child has a fever!"

At this time, some people shouted worriedly.

Finally someone got sick and the situation was getting more and more precarious.

"Kaesong surrenders!"

Some people couldn't help it and shouted loudly.

"Kaesong surrenders ......"

As if it would be contagious, it quickly spread among the people of the city, and more and more people cried out for surrender.

The voice of one or two people may not have much power, but the whole city is shouting, the voice is loud, it is transmitted far away, echoing in the city, even Tao Qian, who is standing on the city tower, can hear it.

"Envoy, I've finished eating the dry food!"

Zhao Yu came back and said: "Our firewood has also been used up, and even the charcoal has been burned several times, and the grain is there, but there is no way to cook it, and it can't be eaten dry." ”

Tao Qian's face was gloomy, and he walked around the city wall, but he couldn't come up with a countermeasure.

"We fell ill with two more soldiers."

Cao Bao said helplessly: "The water soaked in the city is all dirty water, the soldiers are easy to get sick when they drink it, and there are more people who fall ill in the city, so what should we do?" ”

Tao Qian's brows furrowed even more!

He didn't know what to do.

"Or do you surrender?"

Sun Guan suddenly said: "What else can we do but surrender?" ”

He still hasn't finished saying a word, if he doesn't surrender again, the people in the city will not die of illness, they may starve to death, and Tao Qian will become a sinner in Xiapi.

"Envoy, surrender!"

Zang Ba sighed, his mind was shaken, and he didn't want to hold on any longer.

"Please surrender!"

The soldiers defending the city finally couldn't help it, knelt in front of Tao Qian, and shouted: "Please make you surrender!" ”

There is no other way but to surrender.

Even if Tao Qian didn't want to surrender now, in two days, the soldiers on the city tower would force him to surrender.

The soldiers mutinied, and the consequences were still very serious, after all, the battle of Xiapi was the people of the whole city, fighting for Tao Qian, not for Xiapi, they all decided that it was Tao Qian who brought this disaster to Xiapi.

Zhao Yu really couldn't hold on, and sighed and said: "Envoy, let's surrender, otherwise many people will die in the city, and none of us can afford this responsibility." ”

"Are you really going to surrender?"

Tao Qian's voice became very weak, he looked outside the city, and said helplessly: "Send someone out of the city and tell Yang Zhao that we surrender!" ”
