Chapter 1060: Flooded New Town
"Father, the mounds outside the city are already higher than the city walls, and Li Xin has not attacked yet, why is this?" Yang Hebei looked at the earth mountain outside the city and couldn't help but ask.
"It's too far away, and when they get close to the walls, that's when they attack." Yang Wanchun has not slept well these days, he has not rested for three nights, but looked at the earth mountain outside the city, the uneasiness in his heart is even worse, but he doesn't know where this uneasiness comes from, suddenly he saw the huge tent in the distance, the soil of the hill is basically from there, the tents have changed from one to dozens, according to reason, this kind of tunnel has been dug successfully, but it is still digging, this situation makes him very uneasy.
"Is there any movement in the tunnel?" Yang Wanchun asked in a low voice: "The old man feels that there is a problem here, Li Xin will not attack our new city so simply, this is not the art of war, it is just a simple strategy, not even a strategy." ”
"It's also the easiest and most direct way to attack, at least it's effective for us." Yang Hebei said in a low voice: "With the approach of Tushan, the morale of the soldiers has been greatly affected, if you really want to kill it, I'm afraid it's not good, father, we can't sit still, it's really not good, let's just kill it and fight with them, even if the whole army is annihilated, it can make him suffer a big loss." ”
"Will it work?" After Yang Wanchun heard this, his face was stunned, and he said: "In the field battle, the infantry is definitely not the opponent of the cavalry, Li Xin has a lot of cavalry, and the decisive battle with them in the field can only be the fate of being slaughtered." ”
"How's that good?" Yang Hebei was slightly nervous in his heart, at this time, he couldn't wait to kill him immediately, his sister had fallen into the hands of Li Xin, who knew how Li Xin treated his sister at this time.
Li Xin, who was far away outside the city, sat on a chair, and the many generals in front of him stood beside him, and the eldest grandson Wuji said loudly: "Your Majesty, the soldiers of the three armies have been prepared, as long as Your Majesty makes a holy decree, you can flood the new city." ”
"Then withdraw the troops, withdraw the troops now, and make a detour to Xincheng and attack Liaodong." Li Xin waved his hand and said. The crowd responded.
The Tang army pulled out the camp overnight, and killed the past towards the east, the momentum was huge, the army stretched for dozens of miles, there was no trace of concealment at all, Yang Wanchun in the city soon got the news, his first reaction was that there was a problem in Liaodong, this is like the original white wolf water, Gai Suwen was stationed on the east bank of the white wolf water, originally to prevent Li Xin from crossing the white wolf water, but what he didn't expect was that Li Xin had already sent Su Dingfang to make a detour from the Khitan and attacked Gai Suwen, causing Gai Suwen's fiasco.
This time it was the same, Li Xin gave up the upcoming new city and turned to attack Liaodong, which made Yang Wanchun not only not have any happy appearance, but was worried in his heart, who knows what will happen to Li Xin, a cunning guy.
"Father, do you want to send someone to Li Xin's camp to see what is going on, or to knock down that mound of dirt." Yang Henan jumped to try, he had long seen that the mound was unhappy, and now he wanted to take the opportunity to knock the mound down, so as not to cause problems in the future.
Yang Wanchun thought about it, looked at the countless cavalry under the city, and hundreds of thousands of troops roared under the city, he shook his head and said: "Now if you go out of the city, the other party's cavalry will kill, and you won't even have a chance to escape, and we have to see if Li Xin really retreated and really went to Liaodong." Wait! Wait until tomorrow to send someone to venture to his camp. ”
Yang Wanchun had never fought with Li Xin, but he believed that Gai Suwen, if even Gai Suwen was not Li Xin's opponent, let alone him, the powerful power of cavalry, on the Liaodong Plain, was a powerful force that could change the war, Yang Wanchun did not dare to take risks now. He was able to become a defensive general of Goguryeo because of his steadiness and prudence.
Yang Henan was a little disappointed in his heart, he thought that in this case, he should seize the opportunity to destroy something that might threaten the new city, prudence is naturally a good thing, but being too cautious is not a good thing.
In the dark night, on the bank of the Liao River, a loud noise came, and suddenly, the river of white flowers rushed out of the Liao River, and the water roared down, and did not disperse privately, but rolled into several ravines, and there was a huge wood in the ravine, the wood was pointed, and with the big waves rolled down, it rumbled towards the new city and killed it.
On a dirt slope in the distance, Li Xin and others stood on it, looking at the river rolling down, sighing slightly in their hearts, and they didn't know how many people in Xincheng died in it after this battle, but Cheng Yanjin and others showed joy on their faces, so that they could solve Xincheng without a single knife or shot, and these people were very happy in their hearts.
"Your Majesty, ten ravines are connected, and they rush directly to the city of Xincheng, even if Yang Wanchun finds out, it will be too late by the time the water rushes into the city." Qin Qiong said loudly.
"At this time, I'm afraid that Yang Wanchun really thought that we were digging tunnels to blow up the city wall, but I didn't know that Your Majesty would flood the new city." Cheng Biting Jin laughed, pointed to Xincheng and said: "If we dig tunnels, there must be a thin layer of soil under the opposite city wall, which has no effect in front of the giant trees, and the water of the Liaohe River will definitely be able to easily penetrate the soil layer, and the big water will rush into the new city, and Yang Wanchun will be difficult to fly even if he has wings." ”
"Let's get ready!" Li Xin watched the water crash down, his face was calm, he didn't have the feeling of compassion and compassion of Buddhism, war is like this, where is the truth of immortality, and it is still the enemy who dies.
In the dark night, the people of Xincheng have fallen asleep, although at this time, Xincheng was besieged, but Li Xin did not launch a large-scale attack, especially during the day today, Li Xin has withdrawn his army, and these people sleep more peacefully.
"Boom!" There was a loud bang, and the tall city wall made a loud noise, as if a boulder had hit it, shaking and shaking, and when the soldiers guarding the city were surprised, suddenly ten white waves under the city wall rose into the sky, like ten huge fountains, and all the houses around the city wall were washed away at once. For a while, there were screams repeatedly, and the soldiers on the city wall had already opened their eyes wide.
"What are you doing in a daze, hurry up and go down and block it!" Yang Hebei heard the sound and rushed over, the river had already filled the West Gate for dozens of zhang in a radius, and there was still river water rolling in, Yang Hebei's face turned white. He finally knew why Li Xin withdrew his troops at this time, and the reason was that for tonight's incident, the water was roaring down, and the new city was in danger.
