160. The battle of ideas(1/2)

In the night, Zhao Da led dozens of cavalry and rushed to the city of Wuzhou with Ali Hague.

There was a torch on the top of the city wall, and Kong Yuan stood by the top of the city wall, next to it was Wanyan Zhang tied up by many flowers.

The moon is like water, and it looks even more desolate.

Wherever the cavalry passed, corpses were everywhere.

When he arrived at the city, dozens of cavalry all pulled their horses together. Zhao Da shouted: "According to the order of our emperor, come and exchange Ali Hague for General Wanyan of our army!"

Kong Yuan looked at the city, waved his hand, and ordered the deputy general next to him: "Take General Wanyan out of the city!"

However, at this time, Wanyan Zhang suddenly shouted to the city: "The Jurchen soldiers have been eliminated, how can Wanyan Zhang survive?"

After shouting, he laughed loudly, "The emperor is willing to exchange my life for Ali Hague, Wanyan Zhang is very grateful!"

Before he finished speaking, he struggled suddenly, threw away the two Yuan soldiers escorting him next to him, and suddenly stomped over the city and walked out.

"Stop him!"

Kong Yuan shouted in dismay, but it was too late.

Wanyan Zhang's burly figure stepped out of the city and fell to the city like a kite with broken strings.

A dull sound came from the city.

No one expected that Wanyan Zhang would seek death at this moment. He seemed to intend to let Zhao Dongting see his heroic spirit.

"General Wanyan!"

Zhao Da shouted, his face changed drastically.

Then he raised his gun and shouted, "Go back!"

The Wuzhou city wall was dozens of meters high, and Wanyan Zhang fell from the top of the city, and there was absolutely no possibility of surviving.

The words he shouted before his death always echoed in Zhao Da's mind.

But at this time, Ali Hague actually took advantage of the moment when the soldiers were ecstatic and struggled away and ran towards the city gate.

"snort!"

Zhao Da, who had just turned his horse's head, gritted his teeth and snorted coldly, and threw the spear in his hand at Ali Hague's back.

Wanyan Zhang is dead, and Ali Hague naturally has no value anymore. Although he is not good at fighting, he still knows this truth.

The spear passed by at a very fast speed in the air, passing the running Ali Hague through his chest.

Ali Hague's figure suddenly stopped and a spear stabbed to the ground, leaving his body unsuccessful.

Kong Yuan's eyes suddenly opened and he yelled angrily: "Shoot the arrow! Shoot the arrow!"

But Zhao Datou didn't look back and quickly left with dozens of cavalry.

The corpse of Ali Hague stood in the night, with his head hanging down towards Wuzhou City.

The night wind blew, and his body suddenly fell to the ground.

The Yuan army who had left the city rushed to him, and the deputy general looked extremely ugly and ordered his soldiers to carry Ali Hague's body back to the city.

The Song army had gradually set up camp tents, revealing vague white dots in the moonlight.

Zhao Da led his soldiers through the barracks, returned to Zhao Dongting's chariot, and walked into the chariot with a calm face, "Emperor, General Wanyan... He died for his country."

Zhao Dongting asked in surprise: "How could this happen?"

Qin Han asked: "How about Ali Hague?"

Zhao Da replied: "General Wanyan Zhang said that all the Jurchen soldiers had died for their country and were unwilling to survive. They jumped off the top of Wuzhou city. Before his death... he said that the emperor was willing to exchange Ali Hague for his life, and he was very grateful. Ali Hague... has been killed by me."

Zhao Dongting closed his eyes slightly, "He wants me to feel that I owe him, so I will always remember my promise to him..."

Qin Han breathed a sigh of relief quietly.

Zhao Da knelt down on the ground, "I am not good at doing things well, please punish the emperor."

"General Wanyan Zhang has ambitions of life and death, no wonder you." Zhao Dongting just sighed.

He actually had a premonition in his heart that Wanyan Zhang would survive and die with Wuzhou City, but he didn't expect that Wanyan Zhang would choose such a decisive method.

In this life, he is afraid that he will never forget Wanyan Zhang's death, nor will he forget his promise to Wanyan Zhang.

Jurchens...

The chariot fell silent again.

Not much, after all the tents were laid, Wen Tianxiang, Su Quandang, Yue Peng, Liu Zijun and other generals rushed from all over the place.

Zhao Dongting forced himself to walk out of the carriage, Yue Peng and Su Quandang both knelt on the ground, their eyes flushed.

"Get up!"

Zhao Dongting knew that the guards and the guards of the Palace Front Office were almost dead, but he did not intend to blame them.

Wen Tianxiang bowed and said, "Your Majesty, should we camp here, should we attack Wuzhou, or withdraw our troops after resting?"

Zhao Dongting looked at Wuzhou City from afar, and the high walls made people feel insignificant.

He was silent for a while and said, "There are large troops stationed in Wuzhou City. Our army has insufficient troops and food. We will withdraw our troops tomorrow morning and return to Pingnan."

"emperor!"

At this time, Qin Han suddenly walked out of the chariot and said, "Just wait until tomorrow, the Yuan army will leave the city."

Everyone was surprised when they heard this and couldn't help but look at Qin Han.

Zhao Dongting was also surprised and asked, "Why did the military advisor say this?"

Qin Han's face was cold and said lightly: "Before leaving the city, I asked the soldiers to throw poison into the wells in Wuzhou City. Now, there should be many Yuan troops in the city that are poisoned."

"hiss!"

Everyone took a deep breath and looked horrified.

Dove poison!

Even Zhao Dongting changed his qualities.

Dove is a species of bird, but it has disappeared in modern times. This type of bird eats snakes, and its feathers are highly toxic in the southern mountains. Its feathers are almost unsolvable when soaked in wine. It is a collective term for future generations to gradually evolve "dove wine" into "toxic wine". Although dove poison will be diluted when thrown into a well and its toxicity will be greatly reduced, the human body will definitely not be able to bear it.

But there were no people left in the city. After drinking the well water...

Zhao Dongting jumped out of his chest with a very angry look, his face flushed, and he roared at Qin Han: "How can you use such a shameless method?"

Qin Han was not afraid at all and still stood proudly, "When Wuzhou was about to be destroyed, the army was still missing. I don't use this method. Can't I sit back and watch tens of thousands of Yuan army attack Guangxi? The emperor thought that the tens of thousands of soldiers in our dynasty who were chasing Ali Hague overnight could block Kong Yuan's iron cavalry?"

Zhao Dongting said, "But there are still people in the city! If you use this method, the people in the city will not be devastated?"

Qin Han said: "Wuzhou is a key land, and our dynasty must take it in our hands. What are the mere people?"

As he said that, he bowed and said, "If the emperor thinks that my actions hurt Tianhe, he can kill Qin Han. If the heavens are angry, Qin Han will bear it alone."

Zhao Dongting was really angry and his heart was filled with endless chills. He felt that Qin Han was simply a cold-blooded person.

Poisoning poison in the well water may make the entire Wuzhou a dead city.

He narrowed his eyes slightly and shouted, "Come on, drag Qin Han down and behead him!"

"Your Majesty!"

But at this time, Wen Tianxiang, Liu Zijun and others actually fell down one after another.

Liu Zijun said: "Emperor, although this move of the military advisor has hurt the peace of the world, it is also a helpless move. Most of the people in the city have fled outside the city, and there should be few people in the city. The military advisor seized Cangwu, seized Jingjiang, and made contributions to guard Wuzhou. Finally, the general pleaded for the military advisor and asked the emperor to be kind!"

Even Wen Tianxiang said: "Emperor, although he poisons the people in the city, if he can take down Wuzhou, it will be of great significance to our dynasty."

Su Quandang and Yue Peng all spoke, "Please be kind to the emperor!"

They saw Qin Han's credit. If it weren't for Qin Han, they would not have been able to destroy Ali Hague so easily and seize the land of Guangxi.

And in their minds, compared to Wuzhou, the people in the city were nothing.

When military generals open their borders, how many people are not people with strong hearts?

They are used to fighting and will not take the mere people left in Wuzhou City to heart. Moreover, those who have not left the city are mostly old and weak.

This era is far less important than modern times to life.

Zhao Dongting was stunned.

He also knew that Qin Han poisoned him for the sake of the Southern Song Dynasty. However, this sinister method still made him feel heartbroken.

If he wants to seize the world, there will be casualties. He can accept the death of soldiers in battle, or even accept the massacre of the people by the Yuan army, because that is inevitable. However, in order to defeat the Yuan army, the people in Wuzhou City were innocently injured, which was difficult for him to accept.

Because it was Qin Han who was killing them. Qin Han was his military advisor.

This is equivalent to him killing the people in the city.

Zhao Dongting wanted to restore the Southern Song Dynasty to build the entire world into a paradise so that the people can live and work in peace and contentment. All the people of this era can have a full meal and live a stable life. However, Qin Han's move made him feel like he had become a butcher.

He couldn't accept it, at least, he couldn't accept it yet.

Qin Han has made contributions and can survive, but Zhao Dongting dared not let him stay by his side again.

He only has a battle situation in his eyes, but no humanity. His ideas are contrary to Zhao Dongting's.
