Chapter 116 Do your best to follow your destiny

When Chu Tianya came to the north gate, he saw the flag flying here from afar, and the sound of drums was loud. Ten or twenty thousand victorious sergeants are lined up under the city in five rotations here, ready to deal with the defense of the city at any time. There is a tense atmosphere.

But the real woman did not attack the North Gate.

Wang Yu stood at the top of the city and saw Chu Tianya running from afar, and hurriedly sent someone to urge him to the head of the city. Before Chu Tianya stood firm, he asked, "How's it going?" But is there a war at the East Gate?

"That's right. The real woman came to tentatively attack, and now she has retreated. Chu Tianya told Wang about the situation of the war on the other side of the East Gate.

After listening to it, Wang Yu obviously breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's good to start. If you keep holding it like this, everyone is in danger and uneasy. Xun'er played well. That's it. Let him guard the east gate!"

Chu Tianya nodded, "Teacher, I have something to talk to you about."

Wang Qi frowned, "Is it urgent?"

"It's not urgent, but the earlier you say it, the better." Chu Tianyadao.

Wang Qian nodded, summoned his deputy to let him take charge of the guard here, and then called Chu Tianya to the wall castle at the top of the city.

"Say it, what's the matter!" Wang Yu knew that what Chu Tianya officially mentioned to him like this must not be a trivial matter, so he did not neglect.

"The students said it slowly." Chu Tianya said, "From the beginning, because of the leakage of the military plan, the Jurchens had to temporarily change the battle plan, from a lightning attack to a regular soldier. After capturing the outpost of Taiyuan, they went straight to Taiyuan but besieged but did not attack. They turned to attack Xishan and block Taihang. The students thought that the intention of the real woman had changed, that is, they were no longer expected to take Taiyuan by force. Turn to a way of 'win and make friends, and don't fight for profit'.

"Oh?" When Wang Qi heard this, he felt quite fresh. He stroked his whinings for a moment and said, "That's not right. Since they can't beat Taiyuan, how can we talk about 'winning and handing over'? Now they are just soldiers in the city. Not only can they not fight against Taiyuan, but it is also difficult to pose a threat to the hinterland of the Song Dynasty. Does Wanyan Zonghan still want to follow the example of the alliance signed by Liao and me, and also sign a ' alliance of Taiyuan', in an attempt to rule with me with Taiyuan as the boundary, so as to swallow the Shuo Dynasty after Taihang Mountain?

Chu Tianya frowned and shook his head, "I'm afraid Wanyan Zonghan's appetite is much bigger than that of the Liao people back then!"

"What do you say?"

"Taiyuan is the foundation of the east of the river, and it is a dangerous place that soldiers must fight for. If it's just to rule with Taiyuan as the boundary, how can the real woman spend so much effort? At least, it's enough after the Erzhou of Shuo Dynasty. You don't have to risk the lonely army to continue to march, right? Chu Tianya said, "After the annexation of Liao, the ambition and appetite of the Jurchens have swelled unprecedentedly. They have made it clear that they want to take the Song Dynasty and replace it and enter the Central Plains! - What the students say is not to the victory of Wanyan Zonghan, but..."

Speaking of this, Chu Tianya hesitated to stop - how to tell Wang Yu, according to the normal historical trend, it is likely that the people and horses along the way of Wanyan Zongwang have hit the edge of the Yellow River?

"And what is it? Why are you hesitant?" Wang Yu was a little unhappy.

"The teacher should still remember that the student once said that Yelu Yuyan told me that the female real man's invasion in the south was going hand in hand. In addition to Wanyan Zonghan's department on the East Road, there is also Wanyan Zongwang on the West Road. Chu Tianya had to move the dead Yelu Yuyan out and lied for himself. He said, "Wanyan Zonghan, because Yelu Yuyan's treachery was exposed, which led to Taiyuan's early preparedness, so he was blocked under the city of Taiyuan. However, Wanyan Zong looked at the people who set out from Pingzhou and went straight to Yanshan Mansion. Because of the time constraints, the incident suddenly happened, and we didn't have time to inform the court and Yanshan Mansion, which must have been unprepared. As long as the Yanshan Mansion is broken, Wanyan Zongwang can attack Hebei and go straight to the Yellow River!"

"Haha!" Wang Wei laughed and said, "Tianya, although you are smart and often have insight into opportunities, you are too worried this time. Yanshan Mansion is the northern gate of the Song Dynasty, which is as heavily guarded as Mount Tai. We have tens of thousands of elite soldiers stationed there, and the thickness of the city is not as strong as Taiyuan. In addition, there is also the Changsheng Army, which is stationed by nearly 100,000 people under the headquarters of Guo Yaoshi, which will be foolproof. In addition, behind Yanshan Mansion, there are three major military towns in Hebei, where there are no shortage of soldiers and horses. Once there is a movement in Yanshan Mansion, these three towns can go to the rescue. Although the soldiers and horses of the real women are strong, they are not good at attacking the city. They can send people to attack Yanshan Mansion, and it is difficult to exceed 150,000 people at best. How could they use the lightning attack to break the Yanshan Mansion between day and night? As long as the battle starts over there, all the soldiers and horses stationed in Hebei will flock to help the battle. Even if it is used to pile up people, Yanshan Mansion can also pile up a solid soup. Even if Wanyan Zongwang has great ability, how can he cross the gap of Yanshan Mansion?

Chu Tianya was speechless for a moment. According to Wang's analysis, this is indeed a more normal and reasonable logic. Historically, the defense of the Song Dynasty in Yanshanfu and Hebei can indeed be described as "a sea of people".

But this seemingly solid military defense line is actually a veritable tofu dregs project. Moreover, the main engineer, Guo Yaoshi, also took the lead in the destruction. Is there any reason not to collapse?

But many things in history are often not normal and reasonable to talk about!

Chu Tianya wants to say something. He can't tell Wang that I'm from a thousand years later, and I know what will happen next. Even if he refuses to believe his speculation in the end, he should be psychologically prepared for the matter of "the Song court being forced to cede Taiyuan by the Jurin".

After thinking for a long time, Chu Tianya could only say gently: "When the Jurchins rose up against Liao, there were less than 3,000 people, and the Jurchin people were just a small tribe that had been enslaved by the Khitans, which was not eye-catching at all. But in just ten years, they have swallowed up the Liao Kingdom, whose territory is wider than our Song Dynasty and more powerful than ours. After all such things have been done, why is it impossible for them to swallow another Yanshan Mansion? In fact, the student's idea is to prepare for the worst in advance to avoid any emergencies in the future and be caught off guard.

Wang Yu was calm and didn't want to fight with Chu Tianya. He smiled indifferently and said, "The worst plan you said is nothing more than Wanyan Zongwang has broken through Yanshan Mansion and swept Hebei, right? If that's the case, Taiyuan will become a lonely city floating outside. It's really harder to keep it.

"More than that. If Wanyan Zongwang has swept through Hebei, it will certainly make the court panic. According to the customary custom, the court must send people to make peace with the State of Jin. Chu Tianya said, "If I were Wanyan Zongwang, I wouldn't want anything at the negotiating table between the two countries. I must be Taiyuan. As long as Taiyuan arrives, all the obstacles to the south of Jin will be opened, and they can invade the south at any time. This is indeed a cost-effective peso for thousands of gold and silver.

Wang Yu's eyes were frightened, "You mean that the reason why Wanyan Zonghan besieged Taiyuan and did not attack was that he wanted to get it from the negotiation in a way that he would not fight and subdued the soldiers?"

"That's right."

"Then why did he fight again today? Isn't this incompatible with the original intention?" Wang Qi also hit the nail on the head and pointed out the flaws.

Chu Tianya replied, "I guess Wanyan Zonghan may be under some political and public opinion pressure and has to send troops to fight. Moreover, if we don't put a little pressure on Taiyuan City, in case we turn to attack the Taihang Mountain soldiers outside the city, he may not feel good. Therefore, he is holding Taiyuan with attack instead of defense, so he will definitely not play hard to attack, and at most he will stop.

"Wanyan Zonghan has been famous for many years, and his battle has always been swept by thunder. It's really suspicious that he used such tactics abnormally this time. Wang's old eyebrows frowned and his expression was very serious. He nodded slowly and sighed leisurely, "Actually, you want to say that our Taiyuan is now completely isolated. Not only are we not looking forward to the rescuers of the court, but we may also be abandoned by the court and ceded to the State of Jin?"

"Yes. That's what the students want to say. Chu Tianya nodded and said to himself that Wang Yu was still very calm and wise. He may have thought of these problems a long time ago.

"I know it in my heart." Wang Yu said with a blank face, "Don't take these words out and tell others, so as not to confuse the army."

"Students know."

Wang's thick slap suddenly patted Chu Tianya on the shoulder and said solemnly, "Tianya, the situation you expected will be the most unfavorable, and I don't want it to happen. But I know in my heart that it is most likely to become a reality. If that's the case, I will never accept such a decree even if I take the crime of bullying you. By now, I only have one idea left - the city is in people, and the city is ashamed!"

Chu Tianya frowned and nodded without saying much.

"In fact, you don't need to say more. I have been prepared for this since I decided to stay in Taiyuan." Wang Yu turned around, held a knife in one hand and crossed his waist in the other. He looked at the endless white snow outside the house and sighed, "If God's will is like this, we can only do our best and listen to fate, but please have a clear conscience!"

Chu Tianya sighed gently and hugged his fist, "The student said goodbye."

"Wait a minute." Wang Yu suddenly stopped Chu Tianya.

"What's the order of the teacher?"

Wang Yu reluctantly squeezed out a little smile and said, "No matter what the current situation is, you just practice martial arts and study the art of war, and don't be affected and disturbed too much. If there is anything you don't understand in the military book, you can ask Wang Xun or ask me. Originally, when I accepted you as an apprentice, I wanted to pass on your Wang family's shooting techniques, but now it seems that I'm already playing tricks. There is the best teacher in the world in your family. Let him teach you the first shooting method in the world!"

"The first shooting in the world?" Chu Tianya couldn't help but be stunned.

Wang Qi was surprised and said, "You don't know yet, do you? In terms of shooting, if Mr. Guo is the second, no one in the world dares to be the first. Even if Mr. Yang and his several Yang Huzi are still alive, they can't be said to be inferior. Not to mention the shooting marksmanship of my Wang family.

Chu Tianya couldn't help but be shocked. He said to himself: It turned out that Uncle He's real surname was "Guo". Now he has taught me and Xiao Linglong's shooting, and he is so powerful!
