"Oops!" Hu Yanping heard that a large number of Jurchen cavalry were coming behind him, and immediately his face changed dramatically and he screamed, and then immediately commanded people to go out of the city to meet the enemy, but at this time, most of the Song army had already rushed into the city, and the number of Song troops left outside the city was not much, and what was worse was that the Song army outside the city was mainly infantry, and the cavalry of the Jurchens must have suffered a lot.

Seeing this situation, Hu Yanping wanted to transfer the cavalry in the city to meet the enemy, but at this time, on the horizon in the distance, a large number of Jurchen cavalry could already be seen rushing over, I am afraid that before his cavalry can be killed, the infantry outside the city will be scattered by the opponent's cavalry, in this case, he immediately ordered the infantry outside the city to speed up into the city, and then defend with the help of the city wall.

The Jurchens who were killed outside the city did not seem to want to engage the Song army head-on, and when they saw that all the Song troops had entered the city, they immediately beat their horses and turned around outside the city, as if their purpose was to drive the Song army into the city. At this time, Hu Yanping also came to his senses, and immediately sent people to investigate around the city, and found that the entire Liaoyang Mansion City had almost become an empty city, and everyone in the city seemed to have moved out, as for the grain and grass materials, there was no left, and only some Jurchen troops were arranged on the head of the city, except for a small number of real Jurchens, the rest were all ordinary people who were temporarily recruited.

"No wonder when we entered the city, the defenders at the head of the city looked so panicked, and they were killed into the city by us so easily, it turned out that this was a trap set by the Jurchens a long time ago!" Hu Yanping gritted his teeth and said hatefully at this time.

He didn't expect that he would be wise for half his life, but in the end he was planted in the hands of the Jurchens, but now they are only trapped in the city of Liaoyang Mansion and have not suffered any losses, the only problem is that the dry food they carry is almost gone, originally he thought that he could get some supplies by taking this place. But now it seems that it is impossible, and the team transporting supplies in the rear will definitely be intercepted by the Jurchens, and it is impossible to transport them at all, so they must be killed before the food is cut off, otherwise they will only be trapped alive by the Jurchens.

Come to think of it. Hu Yanping ordered people to climb the city to defend it, and at the same time asked everyone to search the whole city, because he suspected that the Jurchens might not just want to trap them in the city, maybe there would be some future moves, especially in the city, it was likely to be passive, so it was necessary to search thoroughly.

As the search progressed, the people below soon discovered some anomalies in the city, such as many houses in the city were full of firewood, and some places were even drenched with fire oil. This is obviously preparing to set fire, and the ignition point is not far from the city wall, only need to use a rocket outside the city to ignite the city, Zhao Jia couldn't help but be surprised after hearing the report of the soldiers below, he didn't expect that the Jurchens were really paying for it, and in order to destroy them, they were willing to pay the entire Liaoyang Mansion City.

When Hu Yanping heard about the abnormality in the city, he immediately ordered people to destroy it, and he gathered all the generals. After a brief discussion, the men were assigned to the defense of the city. After all, although the Jurchens outside the city have not attacked the city now, God knows when they will attack the city, and it is always right to make arrangements in advance.

"Uncle Ping, according to the news we got, didn't most of the Jurchens go with Ah Guda to attack the Liao Kingdom, how could so many Jurchen cavalry suddenly appear outside the city?" After the generals left. Zhao Jia finally had the opportunity to ask the question in his heart.

Hearing this question, I saw Hu Yanping smile bitterly and said: "We are all in the hands of the Jurchens, if I guess correctly, we all knew before that Ah Guta had withdrawn the troops of Liaoyang Mansion and chose to send troops from Huanglong Mansion." At that time, I was still a little strange, Huanglong Mansion and Liaoyang Mansion are about the same distance from Shangjing in Liaoguo, among which the road from Liaoyang Mansion to Shangjing is better, why did Aguda choose to send troops in Huanglong Mansion? But I didn't expect that he actually gave us an illusion, making us mistakenly think that the Jin Kingdom would definitely neglect the defense of Liaoyang Mansion and lure us to attack......"

"Huh? No, Ah Guta didn't know our plan to divide our troops into three routes, how could he be sure that we would sneak attack his Liaoyang Mansion City? Before Hu Yanping's words were finished, Zhao Jia interrupted with some puzzlement.

"This is the genius of Aguta, don't forget that Wanyan has suffered the loss of our Great Song Dynasty several times, and every time we go by sea, coupled with the development of our Great Song Dynasty sea trade, Aguda must know that we have a huge navy, and we will definitely use the navy when we attack Liao, so as to facilitate the projection of troops to Liao, and Liaoyang Mansion is not very far from the sea, as long as he creates an illusion that Liaoyang Mansion has empty troops, he is not afraid that we will not be fooled, in fact, he set off from Huanglong Mansion with soldiers, Then turn around the border of Liao, let everyone think that they really went to attack Liao, but in the end they came to the periphery of Liaoyang Mansion to ambush, and they can wait for us to take the bait. Hu Yanping explained again at this time, but unfortunately he didn't see through Ah Guta's trick until now, otherwise he wouldn't have been easily fooled.

"Hiss~, this Ah Gu has a deep scheming and strong calculation, no wonder my father has always said that their daughters are really the henchmen of our Great Song Dynasty, and now it seems to be really good!" Zhao Jia couldn't help but gasp when he heard this, it is said that Ah Guda is not a few years older than himself, but this kind of scheming and calculation is far from being comparable to him.

However, after sighing with emotion, Zhao Jia asked again: "Uncle Ping, although we fell into the trap of Aguta, we did not encounter any losses, the Jurchens outside the city are no more than 50,000 at most, which is equivalent to our strength, with our combat effectiveness, it should not be difficult to kill out, but why did you let the whole army enter the city of Liaoyang Mansion just now, instead of killing it directly?" ”

"Jia'er, why did you forget, when we were preparing to attack Liaoyang Mansion, in order to speed up, all the soldiers only brought three days' rations on them, and now they have been exhausted, although there is a team to transport supplies in the rear, but with the cunning of the Jurchens, they will definitely send troops to intercept it, and even if we kill it at that time, I am afraid that we will not be able to get material replenishment, so wouldn't it be a repeat of the previous mistake of Xiao Yanshou defeating Huanglong Mansion?" Hu Yanping explained with a wry smile at this time, he also had a deeper understanding of the terrible Aguta, and the other party must have calculated that they would definitely not bring more grain and grass when they sneak attacked, so they would empty Liaoyang Mansion City and besiege them without attacking, in order to wait until they ran out of food.

"Xiao Yanshou's mistake!" Zhao Jia couldn't help but show a sudden expression of realization when he heard this, before Xiao Yanshou had to lead an army of 100,000 to retreat to Huanglong Mansion because of lack of food, but he was attacked and harassed by Ah Guda all the way, and finally lost most of the people, this time the Jurchens are simply a trick, planning to force them to lack food on the road, fortunately, his Uncle Ping actually saw through the Jurchens' strategy in such a short period of time, although he is now trapped in Liaoyang Mansion, but at least he does not have to worry about being attacked by the Jurchens at any time.

"Uncle Ping, what should we do now, since our food is running out, I'm afraid we won't be able to last long even with the help of the city wall, right?" At this time, Zhao Jia asked again, although he was in a critical situation, he was very calm, after all, he was also a soldier, and his experience in the army in the past few years also made him more stable than his peers.

"Don't worry, I have already asked people to collect all the food in the army, and then distribute it uniformly, saving a little should be able to last for a day or two, and if the transportation team behind us is attacked by the Jurchens, it will definitely alert the rear, with your uncle's shrewdness, he will definitely notice that something is wrong on our side as soon as possible, and as long as his reinforcements arrive, we will be safe." Hu Yanping said very calmly at this time, although they will face the crisis of food shortage in the next few days, he is confident that with his prestige in the army and the good discipline of the Song army, there should be no major problems.

Seeing Hu Yanping behaving so calmly, without showing the slightest panic because of being besieged, Zhao Jia couldn't help but secretly admire, just this calm kung fu, he needs to study hard, and in addition, making correct judgments in a complex environment is what he lacks, he always felt that he was already very good, but now he knows that he is still far behind.

That night, Hu Yanping's army rested in the city of Liaoyang Mansion, and the Jurchens outside the city also camped to rest, at this time, after the estimation of the Song army, the number of Jurchens outside the city was also about 50,000, I am afraid that this is already all the troops of the Jin State, which also confirms Hu Yanping's guess from the side, the person who led the troops outside the city should be Akuta himself.

At night, when Zhao Jia was about to rest, he suddenly received a message from Hu Yanping himself, asking him not to take off his armor when he sleeps at night, to keep his weapons at hand, and to keep one eye open and one eye closed when sleeping, which makes Zhao Jia feel strange in his heart, it is said that the fire left by the Jurchens has been found in the city today, so the Jurchens' conspiracy has been discovered, why does Uncle Ping still let him take precautions?

Although Zhao Jia couldn't figure out the joints, but out of trust in Hu Yanping, he also prepared according to his instructions at night, and held the weapon in his arms when he slept, at first he was a little worried and couldn't sleep, but because he was too tired today, he finally fell asleep in a daze somehow.

Just when Zhao Jia was sleeping soundly, he was suddenly awakened by a shout of killing, and he jumped up from the bed very vigilantly at the moment, and then rushed out of the door, at this time he only heard the shouts of killing the heavens in the city, obviously there were Jurchens who killed the city, Hu Yanping's personal guards also rushed to Hu Yanping's residence to escort, and he also hurriedly rushed to Hu Yanping, only to see Hu Yanping sitting in the hall very calmly, as if he had expected this situation.
