The Song army formation outside the city, five large flags fluttered in the front, the Jing army in front of the hall, the guards' personal army, the Xingguo army, the God Beggar army, and Zhao Dongting's dragon flag.

Behind them were endless army and various black and gold-inlaid flags. Zhao Dongting's chariot was in charge of the central army, and the flying dragon soldiers protected him.

When Ali Hague heard the news of the Song army, Zhao Dongting also learned from the scout that the Yuan army had entered the city.

This made him frown and sigh, "Hurry up, I didn't expect it to be slower..."

If he was asked to choose, he would naturally be willing to fight against the Yuan army in the field. Although the Yuan army was large, it was tired and had a low morale and would inevitably be defeated.

Now that the Yuan army has entered the city, if they want to defeat them, they will have to break the city, which will undoubtedly be much more troublesome.

Zhao Dongting sat in the carriage and began to meditate alone.

Only when the sun sets west did the army reach outside Lipu City.

Su Quandang, Wen Tianxiang and others stopped the army and horses, then ran towards Zhao Dongting's chariot.

Naturally, they had already received news that the Yuan army had entered the city. At present, the gate of Lipu County was closed, and countless Yuan soldiers in the city were not easy to break the city.

Wen Tianxiang and the others felt sorry for him. If the march was faster, they could drag the Yuan army outside the city.

However, it is now a foregone conclusion, and they can only report to Zhao Dongting and then discuss it.

The generals arrived in front of Zhao Dongting's chariot one after another. Zhao Dongting heard the sound of horse hooves and walked out of the chariot.

Yue Peng said hurriedly: "Emperor, the Yuan army has entered Lipu County, what should we do?"

He had no good ideas in his mind, so he asked in a hurry, thinking that Zhao Dongting had any good ideas.

Although Zhao Dongting was young and was an emperor, in the eyes of Wen Tianxiang, Yue Peng, Su Quandang and others, he was not just as simple as governing the country. Regardless of the previous Battle of Benzhou, just take the attack on Pingnan and defending Pingnan in Guangxi as an example, Qin Han did not give any advice. He followed Zhao Dongting's method to attack the Jiesul camp and the authentic plan of fireworks Ali Hague, and successively achieved great victory.

They were also very impressed by Zhao Dongting's military strategy. The emperor's thinking was wild and often unexpected, and it was not comparable to them.

Zhao Dongting glanced at Wen Tianxiang and others, and found that they were all looking at him with a slight movement in his heart.

During the journey to Lipu County, he naturally had thought about how to break the city, but he was unwilling to all these generals to become wooden people who were unwilling to use their brains and could only act according to orders. If so, how could he rely on them to defeat the Yuan army in the future?

Zhao Dongting never thought that he would always follow the army to fight. He was the emperor, not a general. He could do it occasionally.

At that moment, he asked, "Do you have any ideas?"

Yue Peng and Dongheli were waiting for you to look at me, and I looked at you, and they all frowned.

Their thinking has almost solidified. There is no proper way to attack Lipu County, where 60,000 people from their own side are stationed, but they have to attack 80,000 or 90,000 troops.

After a while, Yue Peng said, "Emperor, why don't we use the Dragon Cannon to bombard Lipu County?"

When they were in Hanjin County before, they used this method to force the city to break through, drag Yuan to force ebony out of the city to kill. Now, when they think about it, Yue Peng still feels comfortable. Such an unscrupulous way to break the city is really majestic!

Zhao Dongting curled his lips and asked Zhao Da, Zhao Hu, "How many dragon shells are there in the army?"

Zhao Da scratched his head and said embarrassedly: "There are less than ten shots left. They were all used up when Pingnan County was breaking the city to resist the Yuan army."

"Why don't you know how to save some money?"

Yue Peng almost jumped.

Zhao Da said aggrievedly: "At that time, the Yuan army was coming in full force, weren't we afraid that they would break the city!"

Wen Tianxiang and others smiled bitterly when they heard this. It is true that Zhao Da and Zhao Hu could not be blamed for this matter. When the Yuan army attacked the city in a mighty way, the scene was indeed scary.

The generals began to ponder again.

After a while, Su Quandang hesitated and said, "Your Majesty, why don't we use the same methods to cure others? Ali Hague sent experts to attack our Pingnan County at night. Can we send experts to attack the county town of Lipu County at night? As long as we can break the city gate and with the rainbow momentum of our army, we can still defeat the Yuan army."

Zhao Dongting didn't say anything, so he didn't comment.

Dongheli said: "But so, even if our army breaks the city, the losses will be great."

Su Quandang frowned slightly and said, "Then our army will siege and not attack? The Yuan army lacks food and grass, just wait for the food to be cut off, and they will definitely run out of the city by themselves."

"No, the Yuan army has no food, so they will definitely entrust troops to grab food. At that time, it will only make the people in the city suffer." Wen Tianxiang sighed beside him.

Su Quandang stopped talking.

Yue Peng was so angry that he stomped his feet, "It's not possible to attack or siege. Can we withdraw our troops?"

Wen Tianxiang looked at Zhao Dongting with a smile and bowed, "I believe that the emperor is calm and calm, there should be a good idea in his heart, right?"

When Zhao Dongting saw them around, he looked at him again, and was amused and crying. He shook his head and sighed: "Apart from Yue Peng, you are all familiar with military books, but your thinking should not be completely confined to what is said in military books."

Yue Peng was regarded as a typical example, with a embarrassed face, and Su Quandang and others couldn't help laughing.

Zhao Dongting said again: "It is the best way to defeat the enemy without fighting. Although there are many Yuan troops, we may not be able to separate them."

When all the generals heard this, their eyes were filled with light.

Wen Tianxiang said: "The Yuan soldiers are in panic at the moment. What the emperor means is to send someone to persuade them to surrender?"

"No."

Zhao Dongting shook his head, "Ali Hague is the commander of the Yuan army, with a high position and a powerful position, and it is impossible for him to surrender. We will send envoys in, but we just humiliate themselves for nothing. But there is a way to try it. Ali Hague is a native of Uygur, and his generals are of all races. The most important ebony, Jessul, Toheti and others have all died of our hands. He does not want to surrender, but his generals may not be willing to follow him to defend the city. Even if those generals are willing, the soldiers may not be willing. Who is willing to be able to fill his stomach, who is willing to die for him? "

All the generals looked at Zhao Dongting with even more light in their eyes.

Zhao Dongting said again: "We sent hundreds of people to shoot arrows in the city. Letters tied up the arrows, which said that the surrendered people will not blame them. Those who do not want to join the army can distribute money and food to let them return home. Those who are willing to continue joining the army can stay in our army to continue to entrust important tasks, just like Wanyan Zhang, who resisted the Yuan army. In this way, the Yuan army will inevitably mutiny, but the morale of the army will definitely be even more dispersed."

The light in Wen Tianxiang and others' eyes reached its peak at this moment, "The emperor is a talent!"

Zhao Dongting nodded, "Order all the soldiers to rest on the spot, Zhao Da, Zhao Hu, you two bring people to the city to shoot arrows!"

"yes!"

Zhao Da and Zhao Hu two ugly men with copper faces grinned and happily greeted the Feilong soldiers.

They don’t know any military tactics, but they only know that there is nothing wrong with listening to the emperor.

Zhao Dongting didn't feel any pride in his heart. He also saw this method in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms in his previous life. When Lu Bu retreated to Xia Pi, Cao Cao used this method to make Lu Bu's army mutiny, which led to Lu Bu's ten thousand enemies being bound by his subordinates and losing his life.

Although the Romance of the Three Kingdoms is probably all imagination and not real, this method may not be impossible.

Just as he was on the march, Zhao Dongting did not think of a better way.

Su Quandang and the others said it was right. Even if they attacked the city, they would inevitably suffer heavy losses. If they siege, the people in the city would inevitably suffer. This was not what Zhao Dongting wanted to see.

When he thought of the people, he suddenly thought of something again. What should the Yuan army do if the people in the city threatened?

Zhao Dongting has been in such a dilemma twice.

But then I thought again, the Yuan army had 80,000 or 90,000 people, so it shouldn't be so despicable, right?

He waved his hand and asked Su Quandang Yue Peng and the others to go down to arrange the soldiers to camp, and then return to the chariot.

There are always many variables in war. He cannot plan like Qin Han, so he can only do his best.

Until now, Zhao Dongting has actually seen a lot, or has been assimilated a lot. In war, some losses are inevitable.

He wanted to protect all the lives of all the people and all the soldiers, but even gods could not do it. And he was just a time traveler. Apart from some thoughts and insights in his head that were beyond the times, he actually did not have much advantage compared to these ancient people.

When it comes to military tactics, not to mention Wen Tianxiang, Su Quandang and others, Zhao Dongting is probably only a little stronger than Yue Peng.

Do your best and leave your destiny.

When the sunset was still a little afterglow, the large Song army camped and the flying dragon army galloped out.

Zhao Da carried Zhao Dongting's dragon flag and galloped in front. The soldiers behind him were carrying bows and arrows, and white cloth was tied to the arrows. These cloths were written by the letters of persuading surrender. Zhao Da and Zhao Hu were illiterate, and they were written in a hurry by the accompanying officials in the army. There were hundreds of copies.

The Yuan army on the wall of Lipu County was a little confused when they saw hundreds of Song army and rushed to attack the city.

What can hundreds of people do in such a number of duels?

A sneak attack may still work, wouldn’t it be a blatant siege to die?

Even the sentries on the watchtower did not sound the horn, and did not take Zhao Da, Zhao Hu and the others seriously.

Until closer, when I saw the dragon flag carried by Zhao Da, the generals and soldiers guarding the city of the Yuan army looked slightly stern. It turned out to be the messenger.

Before the war in ancient times, it was not strange that there were messengers negotiating.

At Zhao Da, when Zhao Hu led the Flying Dragon Army to only more than 20 meters away from the city, the Yuan army soldiers set up bows and arrows, and the generals guarding the city shouted loudly: "The person who comes will stop!"

"end!"

Zhao Hu shouted loudly.

The soldiers of the Flying Dragon Army were all swinging.

They received special forces training in Leizhou, and their qualities are naturally not comparable to ordinary soldiers.

As soon as the horse was strangled, hundreds of people pulled their bows and arrows together, and hundreds of arrows tied to the letter of surrender shot towards the walls of Lipu County.

Their shooting angle was extremely high, and the arrows fell like rain, and they did not mean to harm the Yuan army on the city.

"retreat!"

Then, before the Yuan army came to their senses, they slapped their horses and retreated quickly.

The Yuan army general stared at him with confusion, and his face changed slightly until a soldier discovered the letter of persuasion and presented it to him.
