At the same time, Hu Biao and others, who couldn't sleep, sat silently on the top of the mountain smoking cigarettes and thinking about their hearts under a bright moonlight.

Even in the ensuing boredom, Hu Biao also took out the pig-killing knife on his waist because he had cut too many people during the day, and the blade had been rolled up, when he was polishing it on a whetstone.

They don't know that they're not alone.

Because it was only more than three miles away from their current location.

Wanyan Zongwang, Wanyan Zonghan, Wanyan Xiyin, Wanyan Lou Room and other four giants of the Jin State and the Song army; Under the butter lamp in the big tent of the Chinese army, they also did not fall asleep.

It's normal to think about such a situation.

With the vicious eyes of these four people who have been trained under the battle for a long time; Where can we still see some of the crises that their current army of the Song Dynasty is facing.

Yes! That's right.

Hu Biao and a group of netizens, these Song people, who they initially thought were just minor troubles, have finally risen to the level of crisis.

It is precisely because of Hu Biao and others that they far exceeded everyone's expectations, and miraculously persevered on the Cooking Cake Mountain day after day.

As a result, in Kaifeng City, the Song people, who were originally as weak as sheep, have now become more fleshy as the days pass.

In the last two consecutive days, hundreds of Song people braved most of the casualties from the waterway and forcibly supported the Cooking Cake Mountain.

And in terms of the number of people, it is getting more and more day by day, which is the best proof of this.

If things continue, with their rich experience in warfare, they will not be able to understand such a war; I don't know what this war, which has long been out of suspense, will eventually become?

No way! They have fought many vicious battles, but this is the first time they have encountered such a strange situation.

Now, of course, they still occupy the absolute initiative on the battlefield; As long as you want to leave, you can return to Jinguo with a lot of loot.

Just returning like this, they have a lot of unwillingness.

In short, as soon as they thought of the above, these so-called golden soldier giants were very anxious in their hearts.

It was only in the middle of the night that they did not rest in their respective tents, but came to the camp at the foot of the Cake Mountain together.

Everything, it's not because they are worried in their hearts, how can they use the fastest time to lay down the Cooking Cake Mountain and press back the bloody nature that the Song people have just risen.

It's a pity that it's one thing to realize that something is wrong.

It's another thing to think of a solution, they've been sitting here for a long time, and they don't have any idea what to do......

In the crisp sound of 'clanging~', Wanyan Xiyin waved his hand and smashed a tea cup 'Jianzhan' used by the Great Song Dynasty royal family in his hand to the ground.

In an instant, only half of such a modern plane Huaguo remained, and there was only one island country left.

As long as it is successfully brought back, it can definitely be regarded as a national treasure, and the value of the treasure is immeasurable, and it is smashed to a pulp like garbage.

In the following time, Yan Xiyin opened his mouth and shouted:

"Aruno, immediately give me some troops to attack the mountain overnight, and from this moment on, the mountain will be attacked day and night, even if the dead are piled up as high as this mountain of cooking cakes, they must be taken.

What could be the big deal? It's just a few more pawns.

In the past, there were many Han and Liao people in Liao, as long as they went back and erected the banner of recruitment, they could have as many as they wanted; If you die one here, I'll make up for you.

As long as I have this cake mountain and the heads of the Song people on the mountain, I don't care about anything else~"

Hearing this, because of the reason for the rush to get on fire these days, Captain Arubu, who had several bubbles on his lips, suddenly became overjoyed in his heart.

He is also a middle-level and high-level person among the Jurchens, since he followed the old emperor of Aguta to raise troops; I don't know how many vicious battles I have experienced, but where have I suffered such losses and suffered such anger.

Until now, the number of his soldiers who have died in the Cooking Cake Mountain is almost tens of thousands.

That is, several marshals continue to replenish manpower to come in, otherwise he would have become a bare-bones commander a long time ago; But even so, his fellow clansmen didn't know how to laugh at him in secret.

Now that I finally heard such an order, I immediately prepared to act.

As Wanyan Xiyin said, it is nothing more than more Han and Liao people.

It's just that at the moment when he was about to rush out of the camp and start attacking overnight, Wanyan Zongwang was the second prince of the Jin Kingdom and the commander of the East Road Army.

After putting down a thick dossier in his hand, a sentence came out of his mouth:

"Wait, the matter of attacking the mountain overnight has not been mentioned~"

After finishing speaking, the second prince of the Jin Kingdom didn't care about Arubu, who had a grievance, and said to Wanyan Xiyin and the others:

"Xi Yin, you might as well take a long-term view, the former Liao land has become the land of my Dajin Kingdom, and those Han and Liao people are now also the people under us.

Treat them as if they were your own cattle and horses, and you can't drive them to death.

Feed them an extra handful of forage on weekdays, so that they can have more strength when farming, and more meat when slaughtering; Remember! In the future, such words must not be said in front of those Han people, so as not to hurt the hearts of these people.

In the same way, the soldiers and horses under your command who are not my Jurchens cannot be used like this, and you can consider the thoughts of those Han and Liao generals. ”

Wanyan Zonghan's lesson is very reasonable.

Therefore, with Yan Xiyin's temperament, it is not easy to refute it directly for a while.

He could only shout angrily: "If you don't use human lives to pile up, Zong Wang What other good way can you take down this mountain of cooking cakes and kill all those Song people?" ”

Wanyan Zongwang heard this, and confidently slapped the pile of files in his hand, and smiled in his mouth:

"There really is, but it's not what I thought of, but some Song people who know the Song people the most, and they have thought of a lot of good ways for us~"

In fact, the files in Wanyan Zongwang's hands were some of the things that Song Huizong and those ministers handed over after they put pressure on the Great Song Dynasty two days ago.

The specific content of it not only has the relevant records of Hu Biao and Hu Yitong.

Even the identity and information arranged by the system for the team and a group of netizens to cover some of the identities and information, such as origin, what was committed, and portraits, are all involved, which can be said to be quite perfect.

Let those people hand over these materials so happily, there is an extremely dirty mind in them.

They wanted to use this way to show Jin Bing that the identities of those people on the Cooking Cake Mountain were either thieves and soldiers, or they were criminal officials like Oiran of the Jiaofang Division.

In short, to put it bluntly, they are all some criminals and rebellious people who do not obey the king, and no matter what they do, they have nothing to do with the Great Song Dynasty.

And in addition to some of these official documents, there are also some things that are privately entrained.

It must be admitted that every time this nation reaches the most difficult moment, there will never be a shortage of righteous descendants who stand up without hesitation.

Give everything you have to save the day, so that such a civilization can last.

But it is also undeniable that often at such times, there is no shortage of scum who recognize thieves as fathers for private interests.

So along with these files, there is some inside information sent along with the scum who secretly defected to them.

It includes last night, when I heard that the people on the mountain actually sang those 'don't want the immortal emperor', these rebellious lyrics.

Zhao Ji, who is now considered the emperor, was furious on the spot.

Even to the cronies around him, he said the words 'These chaotic people are the big trouble, and they must not be left behind'.

In addition, that scum put forward several vicious suggestions in response to the current dilemma faced by Jin Bing, relying on his familiarity with the Great Song Dynasty.

Based on all of the above, after getting such a thick pile of files and information this afternoon, Wanyan Zongwang patiently read them one by one.

At this point, I already have some good ideas in mind.

Facing the crowd with their ears pricked up, he said in his mouth: "There are several ways, and listen to me in detail."

First, the Cai River is only seventy or eighty meters wide, and there are many iron chains in the arsenal of Kaifeng City.

It is equivalent to coming to a wire across the river, which can make the Song people's boats unable to cross.

Second, let people tell the Song court early tomorrow morning that if they don't want to provoke us to raise troops again to attack and open the blockade; Let them send some of the Imperial City Division's henchmen and horses to guard the water gate for me.

Don't let any of the boats out, or we'll get them in trouble.

Third, according to Na Neiying, the reason why there are reinforcements in Kaifeng City every day, and a steady stream of support is to support the Cooking Cake Mountain, because someone is secretly organizing.

However, the Song people who are the leader are very careful, and he only inquires now, and this person is called the leading brother.

Fortunately, it doesn't hurt to find this person, as long as you put pressure on the Song court to increase the search and arrest, so that it has no way to continue to organize people easily.

If the above three articles are implemented together, it can be regarded as a three-pronged approach to prevent those reinforcements in the city; In this way, those Song people can still put on wings and fly up the Cooking Cake Mountain?

Fourth, in Kaifeng City, there is actually a naval army in the hands of the Song court.

That old Zhao Ji'er, don't you want the rebellion on Cookcake Mountain to die now, then let him send that naval army to fight and attack Cookcake Mountain with us and other land and water troops.

There were no new reinforcements, and there were more attacks on the waterways.

No matter how strong the Song people in Cooking Cake Mountain are, they can't withstand it for long, at most five or six days, or at least two or three days, and it is not easy to defeat them, and they do not have to cause a large number of casualties among the soldiers and horses under their command. ”

There are four of them, and each one sounds like an excellent solution.

After that, Yan Xiyin's face was finally overjoyed, thinking of the Song executive who secretly took refuge in them, he immediately gave a pertinent evaluation in his mouth:

"I never thought that this old guy is really a good dog~"

After unloading all kinds of worries in his heart, with Yan Xiyin's irritable temperament, and even some leisurely thoughts, he picked up the file that usually gave him a headache and looked at it.

Of course, he mainly looked at the portraits of Hu Biao and others in a pile of materials.

As a result, his eyes lit up after a few turns, because he saw the portrait of the concubine, and sure enough, as in the legend, there was some legacy of the Tang Dynasty.

Waving the portrait, Wanyan Xiyin, who had already regarded the people on the Cooking Cake Mountain as his bag, immediately shouted at Aru Bu in his mouth:

"Remember, this Song girl must catch me alive."

After that, there was no longer any intention to continue to stay up late in the Chinese army camp, and he went straight out and prepared to go back to the camp to rest.

It was also in such a process that he looked up and suddenly found that the moonlight tonight seemed to be extraordinarily bright.

After thinking of something, he said a sentence to several guards behind him:

"Tomorrow is the Shangyuan Festival of the Song people, and when we arrange those means one by one, those Song reinforcements find that they can't even get out of the city, and that uncomfortable appearance must be very happy......

*******

Time: The next day, that is, the annual Lantern Festival, in the evening of the same day.

Location: The east city wall of Kaifeng City, in an inconspicuous two-story building near the Northeast Water Gate.

A servant dressed in soap art took a look at the Northeast Water Gate, which was now guarded by hundreds of soldiers and horses of the Imperial City Division, and an iron gate of thousands of catties had been lowered and completely closed.

Suddenly, in a huge anger in his heart, he lowered his voice and scolded:

"There must be people in the court who have secretly communicated with the Jin people, otherwise how can those Jin people who have just arrived understand the reality of this city so well, and have made all kinds of meticulous arrangements."

The voice fell, and there were seven or eight men dressed as Taoists, Minzhuang, and Xiaowu in the room.

They all nodded, and their faces were solemn.

In the following time, the official immediately asked a series of questions to the Taoist in his thirties in the room:

"Big brother in the lead, the situation is so difficult now, how should I wait tonight, and continue to act?"

That's right! This Taoist in his thirties is the leading brother who is now being frantically tracked down by the people of Kaifeng Mansion under the strict orders of the imperial court.

If Hu Biao and others saw him, they would already shout:

Isn't this Ma Kuo and Ma Xuanzan?

Speak! In recent years, Ma Kuo has not had a very good time.

Originally, from the huge credit for recovering the sixteen states of Yanyun, Ma Kuo also shared some profits, and he could have been promoted to the rank of knight.

It's just that he not only ran for Hu Biao, but also persuaded Song Huizong and Zhao Ji many times to prepare forces to prevent the Jin people from going south.

As a result, after hating Song Huizong, he was sent to Hezhou.

In the following time, King Qin experienced the first Kaifeng War, but was framed for colluding with the Jin people; participated in the Zhending Mansion Volunteer Army's anti-Jin, and the result was defeated.

In the end, he was disheartened and lived in seclusion in the downtown of Kaifeng City.

As a result, he never thought that when he was most depressed and desperate, his good brothers Hu Biao and Hu Yitong appeared, and immediately made his heart come alive.

After lifting his spirits, he began to move around the city.

In the previous time, it was under the organization led by him that after a hot-blooded leader like Chen Ergou, he was a straggler who couldn't even get out of the city gate.

Hundreds of people acted together in a relatively organized manner, and finally succeeded in supporting the Cookcake Mountain.

also brought Hu Biao what much-needed supplies he needed very purposefully.

And after the successful example of the previous two days, more people are now willing to join them, and more people have also donated various urgently needed materials such as grain, knife wounds, and gunpowder.

Even with more experience, they are better prepared.

For example, a small boat will be made more improvements.

The erected door panels are nailed to the edge of the ship, so that people do not have to carry it all the time; Add a layer of wet quilt to the outside of the planks for stronger defense.

Leave some gaps in the door panels to allow the people on board to paddle the oars; It's not just one person rocking, it's too slow, and so on.

In short, every effort was made to make the boat stronger and faster, and to reduce casualties when passing through that section of the Death River.

However, all these beautiful plans began to take a turn for the worse at a quarter or so this morning, when the situation had undergone some astonishing changes.

First of all, in the midst of the uproar, a small number of forbidden troops and a large number of people guarding the Northeast Water Gate.

These have actually opened up the relationship, and the guards and horses who have a tacit understanding between the two sides were driven away by the soldiers and horses of the Imperial City Division who had just arrived.

In the words of the first lieutenant, the defense of this water gate has now been taken over by them, and without the order of the imperial court, not a single plank can leave the city.

Not long after, an even bigger piece of bad news came.

It was after the city's arsenal was opened, and a large number of rusty iron chains were transported out of the city and sent to the upper reaches of the Cai River, leaving some blacksmiths busy.

made a posture of pulling up a few iron cables on the river surface to cross the river with an iron cable.

To make matters worse, they heard even worse news:

The capital naval division of the Great Song Dynasty in Jinmingchi has been mobilizing personnel and preparing certain combat equipment since today; Once it is completed, it will go out of the city to attack Grandpa Hu and others in Cooking Cake Mountain.

Everyone present, they are all natives of Kaifeng, and they are naturally no strangers to this Beijing sailor.

This thing was still when the Great Song Dynasty was founded, and Zhao Guangyi, the official at that time, wanted to take advantage of the Shangshui Division in order to recapture the sixteen states of Yanyun in order to conquer Liao.

So he established this group of water divisions in the capital, and often trained in the Jinming Pool.

It's a pity that before this water division left the station, the army of Hua Liao was defeated and returned, so that a water division became the son of the Zhao family, a toy in the bathtub like Jin Ming Pool.

However, no matter how poor the combat power of the Beijing Navy Division is, there are many large ships and warships, and all kinds of combat equipment on them are quite complete.

If they join the attack on Cooking Cake Mountain, and their manpower and materials cannot be delivered, Hu Yitong is afraid that they will not be able to bear the momentum.

In contrast, Kaifeng Mansion starts today.

Increasing the pursuit of him, the leading brother, is not a matter of concern at all, and Ma Kuo has never taken it to heart.

Because among those who captured him and the servants, there were a large number of people, if they were to risk their lives to support Cooking Cake Mountain, I am afraid that they would not be able to do it because of many scruples.

But there is no problem in ventilating the news in private, opening one eye and closing one eye in the process......

Facing these subordinates in front of him, who are not subordinates, just because of the bitter hatred for the Jin people in his heart, and the blood in his heart that refuses to kneel, the brothers gathered together, the question of 'how is it good'.

Frankly speaking, Ma Kuo, the so-called leading big brother, has no way.

But he faced a pair of expectant eyes, based on his years of experience as a leader, and knew that the more he came to such a time, the more he could not show his timidity.

Otherwise, the brothers are afraid that they will become more and more worried, which will make things worse.

For this reason, he cheered up, and said in his mouth: "It's okay! After everyone is ready, and wait patiently, there is a solution tonight. ”

Then after thinking of something, he added another sentence in his mouth:

"Today is the Shangyuan Festival, when preparing meals in the evening, remember to prepare more floating gardens by the way, and cook some for the brothers to eat.

Some of the rest were sent to the mountain of cooking cakes. ”

After saying that, Ma Kuo silently added a sentence in his mouth: "If it's possible......"
