Early the next morning, Su Jin personally led tens of thousands of soldiers to the lake area in the south of Zuzhou City, but Su Jin issued not a battle order, but a puzzled order, he led the soldiers to dig up the soil and cut down the wood for the dam, and built a five or six zhang high earth dam on a small river with a width of five or six zhang on the south side of the lake, after the completion of the earth dam, he ordered people to dig up the embankments of several rivers and small lakes upstream, because the terrain is high in the south and low in the north, the water of the rivers and lakes is surging into the small river that has built the earth dam, two days, The river swelled, overflowing the meadows and trees on both sides of the riverbank, and suddenly became a swamp.

Pan Jiang and the others somewhat understood Su Jin's intentions, and Pan Jiang asked: "Does the marshal want to divert water to fill the earthen dam, and then dig the embankment to flood Zuzhou City?" ”

Su Jin nodded and said: "The terrain is quite different, the terrain in the south is at least five or six feet higher than the north, and the flood will pour into the city, there will be nearly one person high, do you think they can still stay?" ”

Jingtai said with a smile: "The marshal is really resourceful, this method is really amazing, it can be effective without spending a single soldier, and I can't wait to see the scene of the flood attacking the city." ”

Su Jin smiled: "Don't be in a hurry yet." Zuzhou has a low terrain, and several rivers in the south are flowing into the big lake, but the water level has been kept stable, which shows that the Liao people must have opened a canal to divert water out of the city and keep Zuzhou from being flooded by the rising lake; I judged that there must be a big river or canal flowing out of the north or east of the city, and the next step was to block all the rivers that discharged the flood, and then I don't need to say. ”

Jingtai raised his big finger and said: "The handsome man is high, and he is willing to go to the northeast of Zuzhou to take a look." ”

Su Jin nodded and said: "Okay, you take 20,000 brothers to the north, and the dynasty takes 20,000 people to the east, remember to bring more straw bales, fill with mud, and act overnight, the dam will be opened early tomorrow morning, and this mud dam may not last long." ”

Jingtai and the dynasty received the order, and went to the north and east of Zuzhou overnight to search, and sure enough, as Su Jin expected, there were as many as seven rivers flowing through the northeast and northeast, so the soldiers immediately took soil on the spot, and blocked the river three or four miles away from the city, making final preparations for flooding Zuzhou.

That night, the defenders of the Liao army in Zuzhou saw the torches lit on both sides of the east and north of the city, and they were noisy, thinking that the Song army was building siege fortifications, and the city lord of Zuzhou, Ye Lurong, laughed after receiving the report: "Let them make a fuss, my Zuzhou Tun grain is hundreds of thousands of stones, even if they are surrounded for three or five years, they don't want to trap us, the sons only need to keep their eyes open, don't let them sneak attack the city at night, pass my order, increase the night vigil manpower on the northeast city wall, and hang three hundred wind lanterns on each city wall." ”

Early the next morning, Su Jin came to the outside of Zuzhou City with dozens of personal guards, and stood still three hundred steps away, Ma Han took out an iron-armed strong bow, put on a feather arrow and aimed far away, a Liao army captain at the head of the city saw this situation and pointed at Su Jin and others and laughed, and ridiculed in his mouth: "Song pig!" Are you going to stand out of my bed crossbow for the rest of your life and fire cold arrows? Lao Tzu doesn't believe that your arrows can shoot 300 steps, don't waste your efforts, let's go back to the Song Kingdom, if you delay any longer, your Bianliang will be occupied by our Daliao Iron Cavalry. ”

Mahan yelled, "There's a kind of you standing still. ”

The leader of the Liao army patted his chest and shouted: "Grandpa doesn't blink his eyes." ”

Mahan shouted, "Okay, whoever moves is the turtle king bastard." ”

The leader of the Liao army laughed and said, "If you move, I will be your son, okay?" If you don't shoot, you're my son. ”

Mahan shouted: "Son, look at grandpa's arrows." "Bend the bow like a full moon, let go of the hand, the arrow bursts out like a meteor, and the bowstring bounces back, making a low buzzing sound.

Su Jin rolled his eyes, called someone else's son, and called himself grandfather, what kind of generation is this.

But seeing that arrow, flying through the open area of three hundred paces, breaking through the sky and only running to the chest of the leader of the city, the leader of the Liao army was about to curse a few more words, and suddenly saw the other party shooting an arrow, only in the blink of an eye, the arrow went straight to himself, not even a curve, straight and full of strength.

The little leader was startled, forgot the agreement that he couldn't move, his body slammed to the side, and quickly moved half a step to the side, the arrow grazed his chest with a trill, and someone behind him screamed, and a soldier standing guard behind him was innocently hit by an arrow, and the arrow pierced into the armor and pierced into the chest three inches deep, and he couldn't live when he saw it.

The Liao soldiers gasped, good guys, the Song people are evil, an arrow has a range of 300 steps, what kind of arm strength and bow and arrow is this, if they are like this, can this city still be defended?

Ma Han's arm is sore, this iron arm bow is he begged Liang Shi to choose the best fine iron refined in the Chengzhou iron mine, the bowstring used is also from the Xia country to purchase the yak hamstrings kneaded, each wild yak only four suitable hamstrings, take out the sun to dry and smash into a thin rope, the bowstring needs 64 strands of plum blossom string enough to need more than 100 hamstrings, can imagine its preciousness.

A good bow may not be able to be used, such a bow and arrow, it is not easy to pull it apart, Mahan can only open a small half at the beginning, but he has a brute strength, after continuous practice, the arm strength increases, and he can grit his teeth and pull it away, today he was going to shoot a letterhead into the city, out of a safe distance, he took this bow and arrow, it is not difficult to throw it into the city, but three hundred steps away to kill people needs to pull the bowstring to do it, so he shot an arrow, his arms and arms are a little sore.

"You are hiding, you are my son, son, there is a letter from my marshal to your city lord on that arrow, quickly send a letter for your son, and when the city is broken, you and I will talk about the relationship between father and son, hahaha." Mahan scoffed loudly.

The little leader was in charge, Tie Qing did not say a word, turned his head to see that there was indeed a ball of cloth hanging on the shaft of the arrow, which had been dyed red by the blood of the dead soldiers, and quickly reached out to take it off, hurriedly went down the city tower, and reported to the city lord's mansion.

Ye Lurong was sitting and drinking tea with a group of generals and officials in the city lord's mansion, and when he heard that the Song army had sent a letter into the city, he joked with a smile: "Could it be that the Song people want to make friends with me?" The Song people just like to engage in these vain things, and they don't dare to fight, so if we send a letter, will we give up our hands to Zuzhou? Joke. ”

The officials burst into laughter, and someone joked: "Maybe the Song people plan to send a few beautiful women to bribe the adults, the adults are having fun, maybe they will let them take Zuzhou as soon as their hearts are soft." ”

Yelurong scolded with a smile: "Phew, Lao Tzu is so? The Emperor of the Song Kingdom gave his queen concubine to Lao Tzu about the same, hahaha. ”

In the midst of laughter, Yelu Rong Shi Ran took out the letterhead from the cloth bag and unfolded it, with a few lines of ink on it, and the calligraphy was not very good, but it had the potential of swords, guns, swords, and halberds.

"The city lord Taijian, my great Song Xiong soldiers came south, and they will capture Zuzhou in the near future, and you think you have peace of mind, but you don't know that the disaster has come; The people of the two countries are innocent, in view of this marshal is in morality, for the sake of the innocent people, you are allowed to evacuate the people, for a limited time of one hour, if the people are miserable, it is not my great Song Song is not benevolent, I hope to think twice! Great Song Town, Peking University General Su Jinzi. ”

Yelu was so angry that he stretched out his hand and threw away the letterhead, and scolded: "Don't be ashamed, who is this Su Jin?" What a big breath. ”

Someone picked up the letterhead and read it and said: "Su Jin is the chief general who commanded the Xia army when my Da Liao fought against Xia, and the big loss that my Da Liao suffered a year ago was due to this person." ”

"No wonder he's so arrogant, but, this time, Lao Tzu told him to eat deflated in my hands." Yelurong gritted his teeth.

An official wondered: "Why is Su Jin so angry?" They suffered a big loss in the siege of the city a few days ago, could it be that they came up with some kind of strategy? ”

"Bullshit schemes, bluffs, how can the solidity of Zuzhou be broken casually." Yelurong looked like he didn't care.

"Lord Yelu, don't take it lightly, let's think about it, whether there are loopholes in the city defenses, what does he mean by reminding us to evacuate the people in his letter? What danger can the people be in the city? ”

"Lao Tzu said a long time ago, they are just bluffing, intending to cause panic, ignore him." Jerodon was impatient.

"No, my lord, last night the Song army acted sneakily and worked all night in the north and east of the city, it couldn't be a joke, I don't know what is wrong with you?"

Ye Lurong frowned, he didn't pay attention to what Song Jun was doing in the north and east of the city, and early in the morning, no one came to report; After being reminded by the hand, I felt that something was wrong.

"Let's go and have a look at the city." Yelurong grabbed the blade and went out, a cadre of officials and generals followed, got on the horse and galloped to the north city, after the city wall, everyone put up a pergola and looked at the place where the Song army was noisy last night, because they were too familiar with the terrain, they saw more things in the distance at a glance, and if they looked closely, it was something like an earth dam.

"When were those three earthen dams built?" Jerry Rong asked.

"It wasn't built by us, it must have been done by the Song army last night."

"What did the Song army do when they built an earthen dam...... Oh...... Not good! Jerion shouted.

Everyone was shocked and asked, "What's wrong, my lord?" ”

Yelurong didn't say a word, quickly went down the city and galloped to the east city, went up to the city tower and looked, the four newly built earthen dams seemed to be in sight, and suddenly the sweat dripping down his forehead was the size of a bean, and he said in a loud voice: "It's amazing, it's amazing." ”
