Eight Hills in the Eastern Jin Dynasty

Vol 4 Chapter 2807: Just watch and don't starve to kill at the end of the battle

Heipao sneered, then turned to look at Murongchao, and said solemnly: "Your Majesty, these Chinese prisoners want to defect. I have sent someone to rectify the law on the spot. It is also used to shock the hearts of the people in the city. People, these are the fate."

Murong Chao said in surprise: "Do you have an army and soldiers under your commander to drive?"

The black robe smiled slightly: "Guilin King Murong Town, come back to the city with me this time. He still has more than a thousand tiger-striped knights. In addition, more than 10,000 armored knights that attacked the rear army of the Jin army have also withdrawn. Guanggu There are tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in the city, which can be worthy of a battle. This time, any possibility of peace with Liu Yu has been cut off. Everyone is mortal, and we can definitely defend Guanggu!"

Murong Chao gritted his teeth: "Since everything has been arranged for you, then I have nothing to say. Let's go back to the city now and prepare to set up the defense."

Hei Pao said suddenly: "Wait, there is one more thing, which is more urgent than defending the city and needs to be arranged in advance."

Murong Chao said softly "Oh", "Is there anything more urgent than defending the city? What is it?"

Heipao's eyes flashed coldly: "Princess Lan insisted on making peace, but she felt that Guanggu City could not be defended, and was besieged by Liu Yu's army. Sooner or later, it would be broken. On this point, I also agree with her."

Murong Chao was taken aback for a moment, then a flash of anger flashed in his eyes: "What? You admit that you can't hold Guanggu City now? Then you still..."

The black robe said solemnly: "No, please listen to your ministers to finish speaking. Guanggu City is small and strong, especially the inner city, built on the mountain. More than 300 wooden armors designed by Zhang Gang have been placed on the inner city. The institutions, even some, are made of steel and are indestructible. Although small, they are strong enough to withstand the attacks of more than a hundred thousand troops. This is why Guanggu has become the capital of many forces that ruled Qingzhou over the past 100 years."

Murong Chao's expression slowed down a little: "If that's the case, what does the national teacher say that he can't hold it?"

Heipao sighed: "Unable to defend the city, it is not necessarily a forceful attack and fall. It is more likely to be a long-term siege and wait for the food in the city to run out. Before, we used the 80,000 soldiers and civilians in Guanggu City to collect food and consume food every month. About 20,000 shi, so we prepared 300,000 shi, food and grass, and placed them in the eternal warehouse city in the inner city for the purpose of defending the city. The food in this permanent warehouse is not allowed to be used for relief due to the famine and disease of China. It can only be shipped out after three years, and it can only be shipped out when the same amount of grain is in the warehouse. Otherwise, even if it is rotten In Cangcheng, it is not allowed to take it away either."

Murong Chao nodded: "It is true. The food stored in the Yonggu warehouse in Guanggu City is the most basic ration for Dayan, and it is also the source of the confidence to guard Guanggu. We have enough food and grass to defend the city for a full year. Even if Liu Yu wants to besiege I'm afraid I won't stay for a year."

Hei Pao shook his head: "Usually it is okay, but now, there are more than 200,000 Xianbei people from all over the city. This is our Xianbei custom. Each city must build an inner city for the Xianbei people to live in. If there is a problem, All are concentrated in the capital."

Murong Chao opened his eyes wide: "Yes, but didn't they focus on Guanggu before and let them graze in the nearby wilderness, and they also brought hundreds of thousands of cattle and sheep, and they moved from the tribe, why? Want them to enter the inner city?"

Hei Pao smiled and said: "With the current situation, Linqu was defeated. The rest of Qingzhou is mostly cities on the plain. Farming and trading are usually very good, but at this time it is impossible to defend. There are thousands of Xianbei people everywhere. If it were concentrated in the city, I’m afraid that as soon as Liu Yu’s army arrived, the Han people in the city would meet inside and outside, and the city would fall. This kind of thing was seen a lot in the past when Houyan fell. At that time, the first emperor also experienced it. Northern Wei Junyi Except for the core cities of Yecheng, Zhongshan, and Xindu, almost all of them fell within ten days of the day. In Qingzhou, there are not a few strong cities yet, only one is Guanggu, so , To concentrate all the Xianbei households and retreat to Guanggu City in times of national crisis is the only choice."

Murong Chao gritted his teeth: "Didn't they bring hundreds of thousands, millions of cattle and sheep? You can bring them into the city as military rations."

Heipao sighed: "There are no grasslands and pastures in the city, and there are no room for so many livestock. If it is now slaughtered and made into dried meat, I am afraid it will not be too late. Therefore, when the army goes out, I have ordered these tribes to leave the animals temporarily. Put it in the surrounding wilderness, ready to enter the city at any time. And this time I turned into Yuwen Hailanhu. This is what I did in the Yuwenbu, and most of the other tribes are like this. When facing life and death, the tribes are likely to know Abandon the cattle and sheep, now outside Guanggu City, unattended cattle and sheep are everywhere, and UU reading www.uukanshu.com is everywhere."

Murong stomped his feet bitterly: "It's too disgusting, it makes Liu Yu a thief!"

Hei Pao said indifferently: "We gave him a large amount of rations in Linqu City, and the Han people in various places will probably send a large amount of rations to Liu Yu's army. Therefore, even without these cattle and sheep, he will not be short of food and grass. With Liu Yu’s character this time, he will definitely attack the temptation first. If the attack fails, he will be surrounded by a long-term siege of Guanggu. If one month does not work, three months, if three months do not work, six months, and six months does not work, then one year. We don’t have enough food, so we can’t just defend the city, we have to have other tricks."

Murong Lan's voice was angry: "The best trick is to kill you and use your first level to make peace!"

The black robe laughed and said, "If it can do this, it's okay, but it's too late now. All the prisoners of the Han Dynasty are dead. Just killing me will not calm Liu Yu's anger, because he can't do anything to the Eastern Jin Dynasty. This is an explanation, only by destroying Dayan and conquering Guanggu, can you vent your anger."

Murong Lan's eyes almost burst into flames: "You are going to bring the two or three hundred thousand people in the city to funeral together with you, and tie their lives to you, you devil!"

Heipao sneered: "If Dayan died, then all the tribesmen would become slaves to the Han people, and would be tortured to death sooner or later. How about a battle in Guanggu and a vigorous death? Back then, the Murong clan's ancestors entered the Central Plains. At that time, I swore to God that I would never be a slave or servant of the Han Chinese in the Central Plains again. Princess Lan, you don’t know this vow. For so many years, you want to break this vow with Liu Yu and let us The Murong clan members once again become servants of the Han people. Do you think this is good for them? Huh, I think you have stayed with these Han people for a long time, and you have lost the blood of the Xianbei in your bones!"
