Chapter 1061: A devastated new city
Yang Wanchun woke up in his sleep, he didn't sleep well all night, thinking about Li Xin, his sworn enemy, and he was afraid that he was already galloping on his daughter at this time. Unspeakable anger in my heart. Originally, when I learned that Li Xin had withdrawn from the army today, I felt a little more comfortable, even if I attacked Liaodong, at least there was no problem on my side, but I didn't expect to be woken up by my son not long after I fell asleep just now. Yang Hebei looked panicked, his armor was crooked, and he said loudly: "Father, father, it's not good." ”
"What's going on?" Yang Wanchun's first reaction was that Li Xin came to attack the city at night, and quickly got up at the moment, but it was Yang Hebei who broke into the room, he was about to scold, but when he saw Yang Hebei like this, he suddenly exclaimed: "But Li Xin came to attack the city overnight?" ”
"Water, water, the whole new city has been filled with water, and the water of the Liao River has rushed to the city, and it can't be resisted at all!" Yang Hebei cried bitterly: "Father, we didn't expect that Li Xin didn't want to forcibly attack the new city at all, but wanted to flood the new city!" After playing this time, the army Xincheng couldn't resist the water of the Liao River at all. ”
"It's vicious!" Yang Wanchun's whole person seems to be very old, the new city is impregnable, it is difficult to break through at all, which is why he wants to stick to the new city, even if Li Xin piles up dirt mountains outside the city, he is confident that he will dig out a piece of meat on Li Xin's body, but what he didn't expect is that Li Xin didn't want to fight with himself at all, but directly used the water of the Liao River to talk to himself.
The so-called piled up soil mountain turned out to be fake, and the main purpose was to dig the mouth of the Liao River, impact the water of the Liao River into the new city, and then flood the new city.
"Let's go, let's see." Yang Wanchun hurriedly put on his armor and went out of the city guard's mansion, the terrain of the city guard's mansion was relatively high, which made Yang Wanchun not feel that the ground was full of water just now, but when he got out of the city guard's mansion, he found that there was already an ocean in the distance, under the firelight, a piece of white flowers, the river of the Liao River has completely entered the new city, and there are still a lot of dead bodies on the water, obviously these people are in their sleep, they were drowned.
"Li Xin, aren't you afraid of heaven's punishment?" Yang Wanchun's face was red, with tears in his eyes, and he looked at everything in front of him. What he thought was solid was useless in front of the Liao River, and the flood still rushed into the new city.
"Father, those soldiers guarding the city are okay, everyone lives by the Liao River, and most of them know how to water, but some brothers drowned in the dark night without reacting at all." Yang Hebei said in a low voice: "The flood rushed into the new city, and it is better now, but it will not be good in two days, everyone has nothing to eat, and all the grain and grass are washed away by the flood." ”
"Let the soldiers and the people go to the roof first, although the water of the Liao River has been broken, but it will not last long, and the water will soon reced, and at that time, it will be restored. There was still some grain in the castle guard's mansion, and all this grain was divided and given to the soldiers and the common people to eat. Yang Wanchun gritted his teeth and said.
He knew that this was not a foolproof solution, because after the flood, there would be more problems, if those dead corpses were not disposed of in time, there would be a plague, although after a while, it would be winter, but this situation, once it lasted for a long time, the entire new city might not be empty, and in this situation, even if Li Xin didn't fight, I was afraid that it would take everyone's lives, so to speak, this battle, Yang Wanchun has already lost.
"Father, we have lost this war." Yang Henan and Yang Hedong didn't know when they were holding a bamboo row and led a few personal soldiers to break over.
"What, do you want to surrender?" Yang Wanchun said viciously.
"Don't dare, don't dare." The three sons fought a cold war, who dared to surrender at this time, not to mention that he and the others and Li Xin were almost enemies of life and death, and more importantly, his own Lao Tzu would not allow such a thing to happen.
"What the child means is that at this time we have no other way but to leave the new city, otherwise, what awaits us is death." Yang Henan hurriedly said. The other two brothers also nodded, in a flooded new city, almost just sitting and waiting for death, Li Xin would not allow such a new city to still exist, and when the great level was quiet, he would definitely lead a large army to kill. At that time, there was simply no way to resist.
"That's to escape, at this time, how can we escape, how powerful his cavalry is, without the protection of the city, we will definitely die, tens of thousands of troops will become those who mine and build roads, and when they die, they will have to do things for Li Xin." Yang Wanchun shook his head and said, "Do you know what the outcome will be after being captured by Li Xin?" It is even more painful than the soldiers of the Central Plains that we captured back then. The old man would rather die in battle than do such a thing. ”
Yang Wanchun jumped onto the small bamboo raft, held the bamboo pole to prop up the small bamboo raft, and rowed towards the city wall in the distance, and said loudly: "Now our task is to fight, and we must bite off a piece of meat from Li Xin's army." "Yang Wanchun is already desperate to fight Li Xin, especially once the new city is lost, he will not have the face to return to Liaodong, even if he dies in battle, he must leave a clean reputation for the Yang family, at least, in the future, there will still be people in Goguryeo who will remember the Yang family who fought bloodily for Goguryeo.
"Yes." The three sons were also moved by the tragedy of their own Lao Tzu, looked at the not tall figure not far away, and said loudly.
With the efforts of the Yang family father and son, in just two days, the gap in the new city was finally blocked, but the loss brought was bitter in the hearts of the Yang family father and son, not to mention countless casualties for the time being, but the foundation of the city wall of the new city was fatally hit, and the people in the city were even more homeless, and they didn't even have anything to eat, which was the biggest problem. As for morale, it has been hit like never before.
"Father, Li Xin's army has not yet appeared, is there any accident, at this time, we might as well leave the new city from Liaohe. The corpses in the city already stench, and if this continues, I am afraid that there will be a plague. Yang Hebei said with some concern. In fact, he was a little dissatisfied with his father, and now that it had been two days, if he had left earlier, he might have escaped, how could such a thing happen. (To be continued.) )
