Prosperous Tang Blood Blade

Chapter 105 The Strange Incident of the Salt Lake
Thank you very much for waking up to the alarm clock at 2000 points, and if I want to have a sister, I can give 500 points for my love!Old Cheng has an impression of the ID of the alarm clock when he got up, and he was the helmsman in the last book.

……

In order to defend Lingzhou City, Guo Zihe paid a very heavy price.His third younger brother Guo Ziduan died in battle, and his second younger brother Guo Zisheng was shot in the chest by an arrow and injured his lung lobe.

He originally had [-] direct lineages, but now more than one-third of them have died in battle, and less than a thousand people can still maintain their combat effectiveness.The most troublesome thing for Guo Zihe was that the weather was too cold, and the firewood in the city was about to be sold out. Now the people unanimously tore down furniture and wooden doors to make fires to keep warm.

This move is undoubtedly drinking doves to quench thirst.It's okay to remove the furniture, but how long can it burn if the wooden door is removed?
Once the fire is burned out, Lingzhou will become a dead city without fighting.

Liang Shidu injured more than [-] troops under the city, and was already unable to attack. Naturally, it was nothing to worry about. What worried Guo Zihe most was the increasing number of Turkic people.

Suddenly, a burning smell entered Guo Zihe's nose.Guo Zihe naturally knew what it was like, it was the stench of burning corpses.Looking along the source of the smell, Guo Zihe saw a house not far from the city wall. Guo Zihe thought about it, and finally walked towards the house with dozens of guards on his numb legs. go.

Before reaching this house, there were several small courtyards exuding such a burnt smell that made people want to vomit. In fact, there was no need to look, Guo Zihe also knew what happened.

"Chu attacked the Song Dynasty, surrounded its city, and the people exchanged their sons and ate them, and dissected their remains to cook them." Lingzhou Governor Shi Yang sighed leisurely: "I didn't expect that the horrific tragedy recorded in the history books would happen in Lingzhou today. Staged in the city!"

"It's not enough to change children and eat!" Guo Zihe said: "The food in the city can last for half a year. This is the fuel, we can only..."

In fact, Guo Zihe was helpless.If there were no coalition forces from the Turkic and Liang divisions to besiege the city, the people in the city could go out of the city to cut wood for salary and survive this difficulty.But now that they are trapped in the city and cannot get out, peeling off the flesh from the corpse and burning the bones should be the best way.

Suddenly, Yang Ze faced the direction of Chang'an and knelt down, drew out his sword and laid it across his neck: "I have committed the entrustment of the sage, and I must die!"

He said that he was about to kill himself with a sword.

However, Yang Ze found that his sword could not be cut no matter what, turned his head and saw that it was Guo Zihe who stretched out his hand to press on his sword hilt, Yang Ze said angrily: "Why did Director Guo stop Yang! "

"Yang Changshi wants to die! Have you ever thought about the [-] Lishu in Lingzhou City?" Guo Zihe sighed and said, "Yang Changshi doesn't want to be a second minister, so does Guo Mou want to be a second minister?"

"This..." Yang Ze pondered.

"Death is the easiest way, and it is even more difficult to live!" Guo Zihe said: "This year's severe cold, white disasters are raging, the Turkic people have suffered heavy losses, and countless cattle and sheep have been frozen to death. Trick, does Yang Changshi really think that even if he surrenders to the Turkic people, they will leave the more than [-] people in Lingzhou City behind?"

Without waiting for Yang Ze to answer, Guo Zihe shouted loudly: "No, the Turkic people will not leave a Tang person behind at all, they will slaughter Lingzhou completely, leaving no chickens or dogs behind."

Yang Ze's expression darkened upon hearing this.

What Guo Zihe can think of, there is no reason why he can't think of it.It's just that there are some things that he doesn't want to think about.Yang Ze was in a state of chaos at this moment: "Director Guo, what shall we do?"

"The only option is to stand firm and wait for reinforcements!" Guo Zihe said, "Your Majesty will not sit back and watch Lingzhou fall into the enemy's hands, nor will you sit and watch Lingzhou's people die. Maybe the reinforcements are already on the way, and they will arrive within half a month, or ten days at least. !"

……

The reinforcements that Guo Zihe spoke of had already arrived.The hot spring pool is only more than a hundred miles away from Lingzhou. If Chen Ying wants to, he can reach the city of Lingzhou in at most two days.

It's just that Chen Ying really had no choice but to send troops decisively.If there were no more than [-] Turkic people in Bogulu town, Chen Ying would have sent troops to Lingzhou long ago.If we don't pull out the nails in Bogulucheng now, Chen Ying will have no way to enter Lingzhou.

With the efforts of Lin Chuanfu, more than one hundred skis were made that night, and Chen Ying took a hundred soldiers selected from the whole army to conduct ski training.

However, it is a pity, and for some unknown reason, these healthy soldiers have never been able to ski like the People's Liberation Army in the forest and snow field.

Either this one stumbles, or that person stumbles.Even Chen Ying wondered whether he should give up his plan to sneak into Lingzhou City with skis.

You know, according to the current situation, let alone three to five days, even ten days and a half months, they will not be able to learn to walk like flying with skis.I'm afraid that when they learn how to control the skis like this, Lingzhou City will be lost.

In fact, Chen Ying didn't remember whether Lingzhou was breached by the Turks, but Chen Ying still planned for the worst.Prince Li Jiancheng was under a lot of pressure to send troops to rescue Lingzhou this time.Once he loses, it is likely that Li Jiancheng will fall into a passive position.

Just as Chen Ying was thinking about it, suddenly there was a crisp sound of "Crack!" in front of him.

Chen Ying looked up and saw Liang Zan disappearing from the snow with an "Ouch".

"Liang Zan, Liang Zan!" Chen Ying turned pale with shock, and hurriedly shouted: "Liang Zan, Liang Zan!"

Chen Ying hurriedly ran towards the place where Liang Zan disappeared, but Gao Yunquan stopped Chen Ying: "General, you are the leader of the army. If there is an accident, morale will be frustrated, and the consequences will be serious!"

Luo Shidao: "Let me go!"

Before Luo Shixin could go up, Liang Zan struggled to crawl out from the snowdrift, and shouted nervously, "Don't come here, there are ghosts here!"

Naturally, Chen Ying didn't believe in ghosts. After a long time, Liang Zan said, "Lang Jun, get out of here quickly!"

"what happened?"

Chen Ying asked puzzledly.

Liang Zan said: "This place should be a salt lake. There are salt layers everywhere, and there is no freezing at all."

Chen Ying took a closer look, and sure enough, as Liang Zan said, he didn't know what was going on. Although the snow here looked the same as in other places, it was only a thin layer, and it would fall off even with skis. He fell into the salt layer and fell into a mess.Fortunately, the salt cave Liang Zan fell into was not too deep, only about three or four feet.

"Gao Zuo deputy rate!" Chen Ying turned to look at Gao Yunquan and said, "You have seen a lot, so you know what's going on here?"

Gao Yunquan pondered and said: "Lingzhou produces salt. This should be a salt lake. When there is drought every year, the salt lake will dry up. Where there is salt, the snow will not freeze, forming holes one after another. Look, there is a gazelle here." skeletons!"

When Chen Ying heard this, he suddenly remembered that when Song, Liao and Xia were at their peak, Lingzhou belonged to Xixia, and Xixia was rich in green salt.

"How big is the salt lake here?" Chen Ying looked at the endless snow surface, and a vague idea loomed in his head.

"The last general didn't even come to Lingzhou!" Gao Yunquan clasped his fists and said, "According to rumors, it seems that the salt lake in Lingzhou is about a hundred miles square!"

"Baili, Baili!" Chen Ying murmured: "Make an eye-catching mark here, no one is allowed to go deep, so as not to suffer unnecessary damage!"

Suddenly, a light flashed in Chen Ying's head.

There was a calculation in my heart.

Several soldiers took out their flags and were about to insert them on the edge of the salt lake.Chen Ying suddenly said: "Stop, go back first!"

Chen applied his skis to move quickly towards the hot spring pool. As soon as he entered the camp of the hot spring pool, Chen Ying rushed to Liang Zan and said, "Pass through all the generals above the school lieutenants, and gather in the big camp of the Chinese army!"
