As Murong Fu thought, Wanyan Zongwang's smile froze on his face, "What? The Dingguo army captured Hanyang City? How is this possible? "Don't blame Yan Zongwang for not believing it, it's really unbelievable, but after he listened to the process of the fall of Hanyang, he could only lament that God didn't open his eyes, Cui Zhuo's old guy is also smart, he has nothing to do with sulfur powder, I really think Zhao Yougong eats dry rice, this is good, he saved so much sulfur powder, he didn't keep Hanyang, but lost Hanyang. Suddenly, Wanyan Zongwang understood a little why Murong Fu came in person, didn't Li Ziqian want reinforcements, Murong Fu definitely didn't want to send reinforcements, if he wanted to transfer, it could only be Wang Bengu's forces, and it was just Wang Bengu who had too close contacts with him Wanyan Zongwang.

Murong Fu wanted him to order Wang Bengu and Li Ziqian to cooperate with Yan Zongwang, in normal times, Wanyan Zongwang would be happy to pretend to be confused, and would never admit that he had an inherent connection with Wang Ben, but the current situation was urgent, and he couldn't care about it. Murong Fu's soldiers and horses will definitely not be transferred to Goryeo, even if Murong Fu is willing, he will not agree to Yan Zongwang, once the Liaodong army is empty, Yelu Dashi and Yelu Sha will annex the east of Dading Mansion and kill Liaodong, for the sake of Liaodong, Murong Fu's soldiers and horses cannot move.

"Huh, let's do it, this king has some friendship with that king Bengu, and he will repair a book after a while, persuading him to give up his prejudices and cooperate with Li Ziqian for the time being. Of course, you have to help Brother Murong in this regard, without you, this king can't say that Li Ziqian can't be moved. ”

Wanyan Zongwang replied very cleverly, he only said that he would cooperate for the time being, but he did not say that he would continue to cooperate, the meaning was already very obvious. Right now, right now. Wait for this dilemma. Whoever Goryeo belongs to in the future will depend on their ability. Of course, Murong Fu listened to the meaning of Yan Zongwang's words, and he didn't care, Li Ziqian has been a powerful minister for so many years, and his power and prestige are by no means comparable to Wang Bengu, hum, he is really fighting for Goryeo, Wang Bengu can fight Li Ziqian? If you can fight. Wang Bengu will not be driven from the throne of the royal capital to Xichuan City. Murong Fu arched his hand and said with a smile, "Then thank King Xie for your help, in short, the longer this Goryeo person stops, the better it will be for us." In addition, it's time for both of you and me to make up our minds, is it time to move the Dading Mansion? ”

Murong Fu didn't want to wait any longer, it would change later, and the Dingguo Army had already occupied Hanyang City. How long will it take to unify Goryeo? Even if Li Ziqian and Wang Bengu are there, they may not be able to stop the Dingguo Army. The only hope is to conquer Dading Mansion before the Dingguo Army opens up Goryeo and arrives in Liaodong, as long as Dading Mansion is occupied, it is impossible for Zhao to easily solve the Liaodong problem even if he has the ability to reach heaven.

Wanyan Zongwang's brows furrowed, he originally hoped to let Liaoyan's soldiers and horses attack Dading Mansion first, and with the help of the Dingguo Army, weaken Liaoyan's power, isn't it good? But now this idea is a bit unrealistic, Murong Fu is as cunning as a fox and refuses to be fooled, not to mention for the time being, Guang Zhao has a tendency to be aggressive, and he can't delay any longer, it seems that he can only spend a dozen bloody battles. After a long time, Wanyan Zongwang nodded vigorously, "Okay, Brother Murong is right, it's time to move the Dading Mansion." ”

Murong Fu returned satisfied, Wanyan Zongwang seemed to have gotten what he wanted, in short, the two met very happily this time. Wanyan Zongwang's urgent report was soon sent to Xichuan City, as the base camp of the Wang family, Wang Bengu's power can be described as deep-rooted and stable. In fact, Wang Bengu didn't have any thoughts about the Dingguo army, in his mind, it was best for Li Ziqian and the Han people to eat the dog, and bite and lose both. It's just that Yan Zongwang's order was sent over, so Wang Bengu can't help but think about it carefully.

"Really, are the Han people so powerful? actually asked Li Ziqian to go to Liaodong to ask for reinforcements" Wang Bengu was suspicious for a while, could it be that Li Ziqian was afraid of excessive losses, so he pulled him Wang Bengu into the water together, right?

Wang Bengu kept thinking about it, but unfortunately it was because of his thoughts that he couldn't compete with Li Ziqian, when was it, and he was still thinking about these little Jiujiu. But in the end, Wang Bengu still decided to send troops, isn't it just to attack Nanpu City, and he won't leave when Nanpu City is defeated, Nanpu City is not Li Ziqian's own land, whoever occupies it is whoever's. On the same day, Wang Bengu asked his confidant to lead Wang Houliang to 15,000 people from Xichuan City, and arrived at Baqiao Town in the southwest of the royal capital in Pingyuan, Jinchuan and other places.

On the eighteenth day of the first lunar month, the coalition army that had been brewing for several days finally rushed towards Nanpu City, in order to attack the small Nanpu City, Li Ziqian and Wang Bengu almost mobilized 30,000 soldiers and horses, and a small Nanpu City actually dispatched 30,000 troops, which shows that Li Ziqian and Wang Bengu are bound to Nanpu City. Compared with Wang Bengulai, Li Ziqian wants a victory, this is the first time to face the Dingguo Army, if you lose, it doesn't matter if Nanpu City can't be defeated, the most important thing is that morale has too much impact, and now the soldiers are affected by the Dingguo Army's capture of Hanyang City, and feel that the Dingguo Army is like a heavenly general, if you don't break this mentality, you will fight and lose many times in the future.

Ganghwa Island west of Inju, in order to deal with the attack on Nanpu City by the coalition army of Li Ziqian and Wang Bengu, Zhao Yougong rushed to Ganghwa Island from Hanyang on the first day, and after learning the number of coalition troops, Rao is Zhao Yougong's heart is big enough, and he can't help but be surprised. The army of more than 30,000 people is still a soldier in a hundred battles, and this battle is not easy to fight. Hu Cheng was in charge of the fortifications of Nanpu City, so he knew best about the ability of Nanpu City to bear, and he couldn't help but worry at this time, "Your Highness, Li Ziqian dispatched such a large army, it is difficult for Nanpu City to hold on. Now that our army has just experienced a series of major battles, it is unrealistic to travel long distances to aid Nanpu, and it is uncertain how useful the White Water Army and the Tiger Head Army will be, so it is best to be cautious in this battle. ”

"Well, what my brother said is very true" Zhao Yougong nodded slightly, if it is 10,000 people, Zhao Yougong will not be afraid, relying on the courage of Nanpu City and the Dingguo Army, he will definitely be able to retreat the land that will be invaded, but the other party is 30,000 people, then the situation is different. No matter how bold Zhao Yougong is, he will not be stupid enough to think that a few thousand troops can defeat an army of 30,000, this is Nanpu, not a meadow, and the cavalry is useless.

How should this battle be fought? Zhao Yougong was thinking, and everyone else was also thinking, Sanniang twisted her fingers, a little unconvinced, "Official, if you really can't do it." Don't defend Nampo City. ”

Sanniang's words. It's really a word that woke up the dreamer. That's right, why do you have to guard Nanpu City? used Wang Yingren to put Li Ziqian together, so why not use Nanpu City to sing another play for Li Ziqian? Soon, Zhao Yougong had a bold idea in his mind, "Changke, you leave Ganghwa Island immediately, take all the cavalry away, and enter Pyongyang from Hushan to lurk nearby." After Li Ziqian's army arrives in Nanpu City, you will lead the cavalry to cruise and attack near the royal capital, in short, you can make as much movement as you can, but there is a premise, don't get stuck in the quagmire and can't pull it out. ”

Although Gao Pet didn't understand why there was such an arrangement, he still respectfully received the order.

"Brother, please go to Nanpu City and try to withdraw all the soldiers and horses in Nanpu, in addition. Don't forget the most important thing, when you leave, you will tear down all four gates of Nanpu. Don't leave a single door panel, and a flag should be planted in front of the city gate to welcome General Li Ziqian to Nanpu. ”

Hu Cheng's eyes rolled, and he seemed to understand a little bit of what trick His Royal Highness Zhao wanted to play, was it an empty city plan? But it's not simply an empty city, and the high-ranking cavalry should be of good use.

"The rest of the people will rest for the time being, and then King Sui will go to greet Li Ziqian together, hum, this king wants to give Li Ziqian a big gift!"

As he spoke, Zhao Yougong laughed twice, laughing so hard that it made people hairy. The wooden woman squinted her apricot eyes, and the corners of her mouth twitched, this thief, it is estimated that he has any bad intentions, Li Ziqian touched him, and it can be regarded as eight lifetimes of blood mold.

If the Battle of Hanyang City allowed the Goryeo people to see the strength of the Dingguo Army, then this time Li Ziqian's coalition army attacked, so that the Goryeo people saw what it means to have a military order. With Zhao Yougong's order, in less than half an hour, Gao Zhong left Jianghua Island in a hurry, and the 1,000 iron horsemen who were parked in Renzhou to rest also disappeared into the mountains north of Renzhou. At the same time, the naval division of the Dingguo Army also quickly assembled and approached Nanpu City an hour later. That is to say, from the time the order was issued, in less than an hour, the Dingguo Army had completed all the preparations and put them into practice. It's amazingly efficient.

In order to swallow Nanpu City in one go, Li Ziqian has put a lot of effort into it, and in normal times, with Wang Bengu's soldiers and horses following, he has to do something harmful to others and benefit himself. But on the issue of dealing with Nanpu City, he and Wang Bengu have the same meaning, because compared with the dispute between the two sides, the Dingguo Army is the great enemy. In order to ensure that Nanpu City would not be foolproof, Li Ziqian directly sent tens of thousands of troops to block the road to the north of Nanpu City, and at the same time let people hold the west coast, the purpose of which was to find a way to cut off all the sources of baggage for the Dingguo Army. He wasn't worried that he would fail, what kind of joke, if an army of 30,000 against a small Nanpu City, if he couldn't take it, wouldn't it be a big joke in the world?

On the twentieth day of the first lunar month, the army of the royal capital set out from Pyongyang City, and after joining the soldiers and horses of Xichuan, an army of more than 32,000 people totaled the mighty battle towards Nampo City. The marching speed of the coalition army is obviously a lot worse than that of the Dingguo army, the quality of the more than 30,000 troops is uneven, and some of them are still mountain bandits who have recently surrendered, and the bandit spirit on their bodies has not been completely changed. Wang Yingren is now the general of the Wangdu City Defense Capital, and he also attacked Nanpu City with the Wangdu army, and the soldiers and horses under his command are the bandit troops who have recently surrendered.

"What kind of thing is this, a bunch of bastards don't know how thick the sky is, they should be allowed to suffer a little" Wang Yingren could only whisper a whisper, if he really wanted to say it loudly, he didn't want to make trouble with this group of bandits?

Li Ziqian led the coalition forces out of Pyongyang, and Gao Chong's cavalry came around from the foot of Hushan, of course, Gao Chong did not rush to show up, but ordered to lurk in the northern col of Hushan, for two consecutive days, these brave and warlike cavalry have been relying on a small amount of dry food to satisfy their hunger. Afraid of revealing his whereabouts, he didn't dare to make a fire at night, you must know that this is the midwinter weather in the first month, especially in a place like Goryeo, the winter is extremely cold, but fortunately there is no snow in these two days, even so, the soldiers are frozen enough. Gao Zhong can also be regarded as an iron-beaten man, but he can't stand it anymore by hiding in the col like this, so he secretly made up his mind that after he gets out of the col, he must toss it well, and he has to toss Li Ziqian until he vomits blood, otherwise it will be in vain to suffer this crime.

After he entered Nanpu City, he did not force the people to strengthen the city defense, but went to the streets to beat gongs and drums, and publicized it. No, the most prosperous bazaar in Nanpu City remembered the sound of broken gongs again, and the people who came were all Goryeo people dressed in official uniforms, and they shouted loudly, "Fellow villagers and elders, don't panic, His Royal Highness the regent of the Great Song Dynasty is willing to hand over the peace of Nanpu to King Li Ziqian." Since then, there has been no war in Nanpu City, and all the fathers and elders can live in peace. ”

At the beginning, no one really believed this kind of nonsense, the army of the royal capital and the army of Xichuan came to conquer together, and the Han people would do nothing and obediently hand over Nanpu City? I'm afraid there are no such fools in the world, right? However, a day has passed, and there is still no announcement of requisitioning the people to build city defenses, on the contrary, I also heard that the Han people have demolished the city gates, and the defenders have left Nanpu. At this point, the people of Nanpu City are not panicked, some are just curious and surprised, what the hell are the Han people doing, even if you don't want Nanpu City and want to give it to Li Ziqian, there is no need to tear down the city gate, how can there be such a thing in the world? Could it be that the Dingguo Army lacks baggage, and needs those boards to repair things?

"Tsk, have you heard, the two gates of more than 400 catties at the south gate are really gone, and now I pass by there, and the whole door hole is empty, it's really strange!" A merchant touched his hat and said loudly, and the other also nodded, "But isn't it, I heard that the north gate is more thorough than the south gate, not only the door panel is gone, but the two arrow towers that were just built before have also been demolished, and the removed wooden strips have been distributed to the nearby people as firewood." ”

"Brother Cui, you're not kidding? The arrow tower was also demolished, and it was given to the villagers as firewood? "Some people in the teahouse soon expressed doubts, I have seen the soldiers send warmth, and I have not seen the people who demolished the arrow tower to send firewood to the people, this is not a good person, but an idiot and a brainchild.

"How can this be a lie? I saw this with my own eyes, you all know the old Xie Tou in the north of the city, I got two large bundles of firewood this afternoon, and the old Xie Tou was happy. Anyway, it's weird, it doesn't look like it's going to be a war at all. (To be continued.) )
