The Great Ming Reversal

Chapter 270: Two heavens of ice and fire

Views:

Now the weather in Liaodong is very cold. Although the moat has not been frozen, it is normal for some ice to appear. And now it is probably the way it looks like when the moon is in the middle of the sky, the Taizi River is high tide, and the water of the river that had entered the winter dry season slowly rose. And in a hidden corner on the side of the moat, there is a small hole. If you didn't jump into the moat and look closely, you wouldn't be able to see it at all. At this time, the water of the moat has risen past the entrance of the cave, and streams of river water poured into the cave. With a cathartic moat, it is like a child who has found a toy. Happy. The surging white waves rushed into the cave with the corpses that had fallen into the river a few days ago. But the hole is like a bottomless pit, no matter how much water is poured, there is no intention to stop.

Date Masamune led the soldiers depressed, clutching the embarrassingly smelling cloth and rushed into the fire. There are not many soldiers, only two thousand. He didn't bring such a few people because of his Tibetan selfishness. It was because the fire in the city no longer allowed more people to enter. When the time comes, there are too many people, but you can't stretch it out, blocking yourself, and it's not good for yourself. Originally, Matsudaira took Date Masamune as the commander of the entire army. He did not agree with Date Masamune to lead the troops himself. Instead, he wanted to lead his troops to rush in to solve the problem of Hachi, but Date Masamune refused. Although Matsudaira was unsuccessful in the Tokugawa family, he was a member of the Tokugawa family after all. If Matsudaira is allowed to die here, Hidetada Tokugawa will be very happy, but he will behave anyway, and the unlucky one will be himself. And if he died there, he could be regarded as giving his life for the country no matter what. Even if the Tokugawa family complained to themselves, they would not embarrass their children too much. Considering this situation, Date Masamune still has to lead the team in himself. There is only one requirement for Wei Ming, and that is that I am not familiar with this Liaoyang city, and now it is on fire again, it is very likely that I can't find a place. To rush in without knowing this is simply irresponsible to the soldiers. In fact, the soldiers came here with seven crutches and eight crutches. They were not familiar with the terrain of Liaoyang City. At this time, the cell boss stood up and said that he was a native of Liaoyang City, and he could lead the army to **hachi Official office. After Wei Ming nodded and agreed, Date Masamune rushed in with his troops, without any hesitation.

"No, it's very difficult to put out the fire. If this goes on, the fire will always spread." Sun Chengzong said with a gloomy face when he saw the soldiers rescuing the fire in the city. Now it has been rescued for some time, but the fire has not diminished at all, but has a tendency to spread. If this continues, even if Houjin and the Mongols do not come, they and others will have to be suffocated to death in the fire.

"Establish a fire belt. Throw all that can be burned into the fire. If nothing is burned, then we will be safe. Don't worry, we will definitely survive!" Wei Ming looked at the raging fire. Muttered in his mouth. In fact, his palms were already full of sweat.

"This is also a way, but it doesn't necessarily work. The Jinjun has made enough preparations this time. There are many things that ignite the fire in the city." Sun Chengzong said with some worry.

"I hope it works!" Wei Ming shook his head, threw these messy thoughts out of his mind, smiled and said to Sun Chengzong: "You said my cheap father-in-law can come out alive this time?"

"Who knows!" Sun Chengzong spread his hands, and when an old man made such a move, Wei Ming felt that his entire worldview was about to collapse.

"Boom!" There was a loud noise, and the whole earth seemed to be shaking. Wei Ming and Sun Chengzong were the first to bear the brunt of being close to the city wall and almost fell to the ground. But at this time, the tall and rugged city wall was dropping stones.

"What's the matter? There was an earthquake?" Wei Ming and Sun Chengzong stood up to support each other, looking at the still slightly shaking city wall, they still had lingering fears. If there is another earthquake at this time, it will really worsen the situation. Looking at it, it seems that the city wall is not very good to rely on. The wall has collapsed, so where can they go? Only the last fight. Wei Ming and Sun Chengzong's eyes became sharp almost at the same time.

"My lord, my lord, there is water coming from there and there!" A small soldier watched the water rustling out from under the city wall, and the feeling he got bigger and bigger, his lips were trembling with fright. Is it because God's punishment is impossible? It's not just a soldier who thinks so, many soldiers think so. His face turned pale, and some even suspected that this was the god Hachi begging to punish them. What is a man before God? Nothing!

"What is the chaos! You are warriors, fearless warriors, this little thing can scare you like this?" Wei Ming roared, and Sun Chengzong also found a few soldiers who were trembling there. , Took a few whips, so that the fear on the faces of the soldiers was wiped out. However, in their eyes, they can still see the anxiety.

"Master Hou, in order to save you a few days ago, a man brought by the lady tried to dig a tunnel into Liaoyang City from the outside. But then because of the inner ghost, that person died. The inner ghost was killed by me. . And this is probably related to this matter." Dongfang Xiaomo was also taken aback. But after calming down, he listened to the roar of the moat outside the city, plus everything in front of him, and made his own judgment.

"Is that so? How did the water enter the tunnel? Did you set the exit of the tunnel in the river?" Wei Ming said with a flash of eyes. Don't dare to talk nonsense now. A wrong judgment may even kill the three armies. No one dares to resist this responsibility, and no one can handle it.

"Hou Ye, in order to avoid being discovered by the post-Jin army, the digging tunnel has to hide the mud. So there is a mouth that directly leads to the moat. The loud noise just now is probably caused by the collapse of the tunnel outside. The reason why water came out from under the city wall was probably because the tunnel was too close to the city wall and the water flow was too fast.” Dongfang Xiaomo explained.

"Come here, go to the city wall to see if there is a phenomenon of land collapse outside the city." Wei Ming roared, and someone ran up to the city head and shot the rocket at the city head far away.

"Sir, there are indeed signs of land collapse outside!" Xiaobing reported. But such a sentence made the soldiers even more fearful. What kind of power is this that can actually make the earth collapse? Do you really want to be trapped in Liaoyang City when you wait for someone

"Hahaha!" Wei Ming laughed three times but the soldiers were taken aback. You can still laugh at this kind of time, you really don't know whether you live or die! Lu Xiangsheng, An Bangyan, and She Shehui didn't say anything. They felt the deepest about Wei Ming's deeds, feeling that this man was like a god, and there was nothing impossible to do. Coupled with deliberate propaganda, these people are willing to believe even if Wei Ming says carbon is white. Because when Wei Ming said that there could be tens of shi per mu of grain, no one believed it. Later, they believed it. Trust is a process of accumulation. So their faces are excited, which is in sharp contrast with the armies of other forces. However, although I was a little disdainful in my heart, I was afraid of Wei Ming's position no matter what, and did not dare to stand up and say some nonsense.

"Why, are you still scared now?" Wei Ming said with a look of excitement. Seeing everyone staring at him in a daze, he said: "This is actually what we calculated a long time ago. ** Hachi can't defend Liaoyang city, this Liaoyang city must be ours. But with ** Hachi's In terms of character, he will definitely not give up. Now he is still fighting in his home. And setting fire in the city has become inevitable. How can I set fire without water? A few days ago, I sent someone to dig it. The water diversion channel leads directly to the city. Brothers, soldiers, this is life-saving water! With water, are we still afraid that the fire will not be extinguished?" On the surface, Wei Ming seems to be impassioned, but in fact, he doesn’t believe in his own nonsense. . But it is still possible to push the process from the results. So when I get here, I can say that the truth is true, but in fact, this is simply a bunch of things that happened together by coincidence. To put it nicely, this is called Zhuge Liang after the fact. If it's a bit ugly, it's just pretending to be there. But the effect is really good, everyone heard that they weren't their gods summoned by the post-jin people! I'm afraid of a fart! As a result, the sentiment is excited, as if it wasn't them who was afraid to die just now.

"Go, follow me, and fight the fire!" As soon as a soldier waved his hand, the big guy took various things to catch the water, and Wei Ming exhaled a long breath when he saw this. Some water had already flowed over and submerged Wei Ming's feet, causing Wei Ming to shiver. When a cold wind blows behind him, he is also shivering. I don't know when the back is full of cold sweat. It seems that this deceptive thing is better not to be done in the future.

"Are you really prepared in advance?" Sun Chengzong saw that the effect was good, but he was so convinced. But after thinking about it, it felt impossible, so he ran to Wei Ming and asked in a low voice.

"Of course!" Wei Ming said boldly. After speaking, he led everyone to the front line of fire fighting. It's not that he wants to fight the fire, but that he really doesn't want to stay under the city wall. Seeing that this city wall has quality problems. Can the digging tunnel shake the foundation? I am drunk too. If such a person is under Wei Ming's hand, Wei Ming will definitely make him live happily.
