Chapter 1004 [No Hurry]

Zong Bi could not attack Kaijing, and he lost the deputy marshal Yinshu brother under the city, and also encountered the defection of the attached army, and finally had to withdraw the news to Liaoyang, it was already the seventh day of the first month of the third year of the main road.

After all, if this news wants to reach Liaoyang, it is impossible to go by land, so it is necessary to go to sea from Kaijing to Bailing Island, and then take a regular cargo ship from Bailing Island to Qingzhou, and then take a boat from Qingzhou to Yaozhou, so that it can be delivered to Huang Jie's hands.

And after Huang Jie negotiated with Zong Wang on the first day of the first lunar month to sign the "Convention for the Protection of Prisoners of War and Civilians", he didn't do anything else.

Since there are not many prisoners captured this time, and Zong Wang's heart is ruthless enough, Huang Jie calculated, and felt that it was too worthless to kill them all before the fifteenth, so he simply set the number of fifty people to be killed every day, and prepared to kill them slowly until the end of the month!

Because Liaoyang City hangs the free battle card every day, Zong Wang is also no temper, so he can only expand the camp ruthlessly, the length of the original camp from east to west is almost ten miles, and the depth from north to south is more than five miles, and in the past few days, with the continuous arrival of the civil service collected in Shenzhou, Zong Wang has widened almost three miles in the east and west directions, and at the same time built a small deer village in two farther places, like horns to guard the camp, so that the entire camp looks like a crescent moon to completely block the way forward in the north direction of Liaoyang.

In this regard, Huang Jie didn't care at all, every day he either watched the beheading on the high platform on the city gate building, or held a banquet in the city lord's mansion to reward the military advisor, or called Yan Xiyin to drink tea and play chess, and occasionally he was really bored, and went to the prisoner of war camp to check the pulse of the wounded soldiers.

Not to mention, how can Wanyan Xiyin say that he was also a few Jurchen students back then (Aguta sent a large number of people to study in Liaoguo back then), so Wanyan Xiyin not only mastered Khitan culture, but also knew a lot about the Great Song Dynasty culture, and his chess skills (Go) were also good, and he could really take a few steps with Huang Jie.

On this day, when Huang Jie received the news of Kaijing transferred from the Yaozhou base camp, he happened to be drinking tea and playing chess with Wanyan Xiyin, because Huang Jie invited Wanyan Xiyin to the city gate tower to watch the execution and drink wine several times before he refused, Huang Jie was not strong, so he simply handed over the knots and came to the city lord's mansion to play chess with him specially arranged for Wanyan Xiyin.

It is also said that at this time, Huang Jie and Xi Yin are strangling in the middle game, Huang Jie is staring at Xi Yin's black dragon in the hinterland of the Central Plains, and Xi Yin calmly lays out and wants to lead Huang Jie's pursuers into death.

At this time, Huang Dalong also came in with a military report marked with feathers and handed it to Huang Jie to watch, Huang Jie did not avoid Xi Yin, so he opened it and looked at it, and asked Huang Dalong with a frown: "Why did the news of the second day of the junior high school only arrive today?" ”

Huang Dalong also explained: "I heard that when the messenger ship entered Liaodong Bay, it was attacked by the Jin army's sailors, and the naval battle was delayed for half a day. Later, the coast guard ships of the base camp arrived in time and sank several of the opponent's warships, and then escorted the messenger back. ”

Huang Jie responded when he heard it, but he put the paperwork and looked at Xi Yin and said, "Oops! When did the Jin Army have a sailor? ”

Xi Yin didn't raise his eyelids, and he also smiled with the chess pieces in his hand: "Jinzhou has the original seaport of Liao, and it is not difficult to rectify a few sea ships to come out and do some raids!" ”

Huang Jie also felt justified when he heard it, so he also reached out and patted the letterhead on the table and said, "Mr. Wushe, why don't you guess what will happen at this time?" ”

When Xi Yin heard this, he also looked up at Huang Jie, and saw that Huang Jie's face did not have the joking expression when he was doing things in the past, but a serious appearance, so he also thought about it and replied: "I just heard what the king of the county said, I'm afraid that the news of the second year of junior high school is not coming from the Song Kingdom?" ”

Huang Jie immediately shook his head with a smile, and Xi Yin thought about it again and said, "It took five days and took the sea route, if it weren't for the news of the Song Kingdom...... It's the news of Goryeo, could it be that Uju has withdrawn his troops? ”

This time, Huang Jie couldn't help but admit that Xi Yin guessed correctly, so he nodded, Xi Yin's expression became solemn when he saw it, and he pondered: "Pu Lu Hu has always been against Uzhu, so even if Wu Zhu gets the news of Pu Hu's death, he may not give up the Eastern Crusade and withdraw his troops to help, is there something else?" ”

Huang Jie heard Xiyin say that Puluhu and Wuzhu were not in harmony, but he also felt that this pass was worth the price just now, so he also said directly: "Not bad! Uju first attacked Pyongyang, and then Kecheng went to storm Kaegyung, but he didn't bargain for anything, and Uzhu's deputy Yinshu Brother was also killed under the city. ”

"How? Brother Silversmith...... Killed? ”

Xi Yin was surprised, and he heard a loud noise, and the chess piece he was holding in his hand was too shocked, and he missed it on the chessboard, ruining a good game that was difficult to solve.

Huang Jie was also annoyed, slowly returned the chess pieces he was holding in his hand to the chess box, and came to clean up the endgame again. Without Brother Yinshu, Wuzhu can only retreat! ”

Huang Jie said with a smile while cleaning up the chessboard: "In this way, Wuzhu and Brother Yinshu, Wuzhu uses his bravery, and Brother Yinshu uses his wisdom?" ”

Xi Yin also nodded, because in the eyes of the Jin country, it is indeed the case, just as Pu Luhu and Han Lu Bu are also brave and wise, which is not a secret in the Jin country.

However, Xi Yin didn't want to say anything more on this issue, but also helped clean up the chessboard, but asked: "Wuzhu is very stubborn, although he will withdraw the army temporarily, he may not return to help Zongwang as the county king intended, I don't know what the county king has planned?" When did you go to war with Zongwang? ”

Huang Jie smiled, motioned for Xi Yin to come to another game, and after making a move to lay a son on Tianyuan, he said, "It's not in a hurry!" I don't know if it's because of the lack of adaptation to the water and soil, or because of the cold weather, our army's combat strength has been weakening recently, so this king decided to at least wait until after the beginning of spring, and then it's not too late to study when to fight! ”

Xi Yin thought it was funny when he heard it, he would believe this kind of blatant nonsense before he called a ghost, so he also casually put on a piece of paper and said, "Could it be ...... Or is it about the POW Convention? ”

Huang Jie asked him to carry out the "Convention for the Protection of Prisoners of War and Civilians", Xi Yin was also completely confused, because he really didn't understand the significance of making such a so-called convention, but also in line with the psychology of not letting the Jin country suffer, he still translated the Chinese character text Huang Jie took into Khitan and Jurchen script, although he did not believe that such conventions could have any binding force on the Jin State or the Great Song Dynasty, but literally it could still reflect the Confucian "benevolence" thought and the "compassion" feelings of the Shi family. The shamanism of the Jurchen people also teaches that people should not see death without help, and that they should lend a helping hand to those in distress in time, so Xi Yin did not contradict this "convention".

It's just that he also expected early on that it would be absolutely impossible for Zong Wang to sign such a paper document that is tantamount to tying his hands and feet, because the agreement in this convention on treating prisoners and wounded soldiers well is okay, but the terms for civilians are too harsh, if such a convention is signed, isn't it equivalent to letting Jin Guo not need to sign an army or attach an army, is this possible?
