Chapter 502 0499 [Wanyan Zongwang’s heart is known to everyone! 】

"Fortunately, I live up to my fate!"

All the way back to the commander's tent in the military camp, Ma Kuo placed the head of the Jurchen supervisor on the desk.

Although Yelu Dashi did not recognize this person, he knew he was a Jurchen just by looking at his hairstyle.

Although both the Jurchens and the Khitans are bald, they are completely different.

The braided hair hangs down the shoulders, separated from the Khitan, and has a golden ring. The hair is left behind the skull and tied with colored silk.

Yelu Dashi looked happy and praised: "Brother Ma is as talented as Ban Dingyuan and Fu Jiezi."

Ma Kuo said humbly: "The King of Liao has given too much praise. The brilliance of the sages is like the bright moon in the sky, and some are no more than the light of fireflies."

"Where are the people from Gaoqing?"

Yelu Dashi looked outside the tent and saw that there was no one outside, he couldn't help but look puzzled.

Ma Kuo did not answer but asked: "Does the King of Liao and General Gao have any enmity?"

On the way back, he had already thought of a countermeasure.

Hearing this, Yelu Dashi was stunned, thought for a moment, and shook his head slightly: "I am not familiar with Gao Qingyi. I have only met him a few times as officials in the same dynasty in the past. There should be no hatred."

"That's weird."

Ma Kuo frowned slightly and said: "When we were talking just now, General Gao was extremely dissatisfied with the King of Liao both inside and outside his words. He seemed to have a grudge and was unwilling to submit to the King of Liao. I had to move out of His Majesty's house before General Gao would surrender to our country. together."

Return to Daqi?

Yelu Dashi felt a chill in his heart and looked at Ma Kuo calmly.

It's just that Ma Kuan's acting skills are excellent, and there are no clues on his face.

Suppressing the doubts in his heart, Yelu Dashi chuckled and said, "It doesn't matter. You and I are allies. It doesn't matter which family Gao Qingyi surrenders to."

He is still very concerned about Gao Qingyi. This man is brave and resourceful, and he is a strong general. All the Liao troops under his command are veterans of many battles.

However, now that he has surrendered to Qi, he can only put it aside for the time being and win over him later.

After all, we still have to rely on Qi State to help conquer Linhuang Mansion, so there is no need to fall out with Qi State over a Gao Qing descendant.

After leaving the commander's tent, Ma Kuo returned to the camp, wrote a memorial, and handed it over to the scout battalion to rush to Datong Mansion.

……

……

Datong Mansion.

The spring rain like butter keeps falling from the sky.

One mile outside the city, villagers were busy building awnings.

Nail the wooden stakes and cover it with cowhide cloth, and a simple awning is completed.

These awnings were not used by Han Zhen, but were used to place siege guns.

After a while, a row of awnings stood in the spring rain.

Siege guns made of brass were pushed under the canopy.

Cleaning the barrel, adding gunpowder, loading ammunition, and adjusting the angle of the barrel are all done in one go and smoothly.

Artillery is very valuable, because a skilled artilleryman is fed with barrels of gunpowder and cannonballs.

"fire!"

Boom boom boom!
As soon as he finished speaking, deafening loud noises sounded one after another.

As thick smoke rose, solid iron bullets shot out and headed straight for the tower.

Today's attack on the city is just to lower morale.

Wait for the weather to clear up and be able to use firearms and field artillery, and then take it down in one go.

Otherwise, there are still more than 80,000 Jin troops and more than 100,000 people in the city, and a strong attack will only kill 800 enemies and lose 1,000.

Marshal's Mansion.

The study room was in a mess.

Since coming back last night, Wanyan Zonghan couldn't control the anger in his heart and smashed the study to pieces.

A servant wanted to clean the house, but the furious Wanyan Zonghan chopped off his head with a knife.

After that, no one dared to approach the study.

"Marshal, Zuo Jianjun wants to see you."

At this time, a notice from the guards came outside the door. Wanyan Zonghan raised his head slightly and ordered: "Let him come in."

creak.

The door was pushed open and Wanyan Xiyin stepped in.

Seeing the mess on the ground, he advised: "Marshal, my condolences. Now that the Qi army is approaching the city, I hope the marshal can regain his strength. A victory or defeat is not something to be afraid of."

"I know."

Wanyan Zonghan nodded and asked, "Did the Qi army attack the city?"

Wanyan Xiyin replied: "It was just shelling, not a large-scale attack on the city. It seems that we want to weaken the morale of our army and wait for the weather to clear up and take it in one go."

Wanyan Zonghan asked again: "Is there any news from Olubu?"

"This……"

Wanyan Xiyin looked hesitant.

Seeing this, Wanyan Zonghan frowned and said, "But it doesn't matter."

"Orulu added that he must beware of the Qi army's counterattack on Nanjing Road, so he could not send troops to help." After Wanyan Xiyin finished speaking, he sighed slightly.

"Good good!"

Wanyan Zonghan laughed angrily: "Olubu really worked hard for this throne."

At this time, Wanyan Zongwang was still playing tricks on him.

Once the Xijing Road is lost, the Shangjing Road will also fall into the hands of Yelu Dashi, and the Zhongjing Road may not be able to be saved. By then, the Jin Kingdom will have to live in a corner and be forced to shrink to the Tokyo Road.

Wanyan Xiyin advised: "Marshal should write a letter and explain the interests."

"Ah!"

Wanyan Zonghan sneered: "Do you think Orulubu is a fool? No, he knows everything and understands everything. He is afraid. Last year when we were on the Nanjing Road, his back was broken by Han Zhen. Now He just wants to return to the Northeast and become the emperor of his Jin Kingdom!”

"..."

Wanyan Xiyin was silent for a while, feeling helpless.

When Taizu Aguda was still alive, the entire Jin Kingdom was twisted into a rope and unanimously opened up to the outside world.

But as soon as Taizu died, he immediately began to fight for power.

His Majesty is also a softie today. If he had Taizu's three-point means and prestige, he would not be in such a situation.

To put it bluntly, the Kingdom of Jin expanded too fast, and it was too full to digest in one bite.

In the original time and space, Zhao and Song were too destitute, Yelu Dashi was forced to move westward, and Xixia was weak. Therefore, the Jin Kingdom did not have any pressure and had enough time and energy to digest the results of the war and slowly stabilize the domestic situation.

But now, with a formidable enemy like Qi, a series of shortcomings of the Jin Kingdom have emerged one after another.

Although Han Zhen has risen quickly, his fundamentals are solid.

In addition, the political system of the Central Plains dynasty itself is mature. It only needs a slight restructuring to eliminate the shortcomings of the previous dynasty, and it can be stabilized in a short time.

From the pre-Qin Dynasty to the Zhao and Song Dynasties, after so many dynasties, political systems and management methods, how can it be compared to the backward slavery of the Jin Kingdom?

Wanyan Zonghan said in a deep voice: "The Qi army's firearms and artillery are sharp, and Datong Mansion cannot hold it any longer."

"Marshal wants to evacuate?"

Wanyan Xiyin was shocked.

"For now, Xiao Qing and Gao Qingyi have temporarily blocked the Yelu Dashi, and Guihua Prefecture (Zhangjiakou) has not been lost. But if it continues, it will be difficult to leave."

No matter how unwilling he was, Wanyan Zonghan could only choose to evacuate.

If we insist on holding on, with the 80,000 troops under his command and the more than 100,000 people in the city, we can hold on for a month or two, but what's the point?

Wanyan Zongwang has made it clear that he will not send troops to help, and Yelu Dashi is attacking the city from behind. Xixia, the white-eyed wolf, may also send troops to take a bite. It is completely meaningless to hold on to Datong Mansion.

As for Emperor Wanyan Wu's begging for money, even if he wanted to save him, he was powerless.

The 50,000 soldiers and horses under his command are his last resort, and he will not move easily.

Wanyan Xiyin quickly figured out this connection and pondered: "When does the Marshal plan to evacuate?"

Wanyan Zonghan ordered: "It's time to wait for a few days. I can't believe that Xiao Qing and Gao Qingyi, the surrendered generals of the Liao Kingdom, will surrender to Yelv Dashi if the news of their defeat reaches the rear."

Ever since Yeluyu was stabbed in the back, he no longer trusted Khitan and Han'er.

This was also the intention in transferring Xiao Qing and Gao Qingyi away.

Otherwise, if these two people stay in Datong Mansion and stab themselves in the back at a critical moment, the consequences will be disastrous.
