Liu Chan had some expectations when he received the letter from his brother-in-law Cao Rui, but when he opened the letter and read a paragraph, he shook his head speechlessly, and then said to Wei Bing who sent the letter: "Go back and tell Cao Rui. , fight in groups, let others choose."
"You want me to withdraw my troops?"
"Don't even think about it!"
"Unless——"
As soon as Liu Chan finished speaking, Wei Yan was immediately stunned. How could he not appreciate it? So he hurriedly said: "Your Majesty!"
However, Liu Chan raised his hand slightly to indicate that he should be calm.
The Wei Bing seemed a little happy and asked: "What is your Majesty's request?"
Well——
Although this guy doesn't seem to have a high official rank, he is very smart. As soon as he heard it, he knew that if he wanted me to retreat, he must have requirements.
Cao Rui didn't say anything else in this letter.
In fact, it's just one sentence, I have a large number of troops on the border and can attack Jinyang City at any time, and General Sima Yizheng is leading an army of 100,000 to come to the rescue.
Liu Chan, I am thinking of my sister Cao Ling’s face, so I will give you a chance to survive.
Retreat immediately and get out of Jinzhong.
Liu Chan really wanted to laugh when he saw it, but as the emperor, he had to have a certain degree of majesty, so naturally he had to hold it first, glanced at the Wei soldiers, and said calmly:
"Go back and tell Cao Rui, asking him to pay tribute to me immediately."
"If Cao Rui can do it."
"I——" Liu Chan sneered and said, "I will return to the court immediately."
"???" Wei Bing was stunned when he heard this.
"Okay, go back!" Liu Chan said angrily: "Go and tell your master that he started the war, and now it's too late to stop the war."
After Liu Chan finished speaking, he ignored the Wei Bing, but Wei Yan shouted loudly: "Get out!"
This kind of result was something that Wei Bing had expected. After all, the state of the Han Dynasty has become more and more powerful in recent years. Even if the emperor of Wei Dynasty personally came here to conquer the country, he probably would not be able to scare the emperor of the Han Dynasty.
Of course——
Cao Rui wrote this letter not because he really wanted Liu Chan to retreat, but because he wanted to frighten the Han soldiers with his momentum before the war started.
It's just a pity.
He miscalculated.
"Wei Aiqing!" Liu Chan looked at the Wei army in the distance and said with a smile: "Secure the city and hold on!"
"Wei Chen accepts the decree!"
Wei Yan immediately agreed. Now that the Wei army has just arrived, its troops are in full swing and they still have a numerical advantage. Although Wei Yan is very brave, he will not just rush out to fight with the Wei army.
Liu Chan did not go out to fight, and Cao Ruike did not cooperate with Liu Chan.
"Siege the city!"
Cao Rui shouted loudly that he would not give Liu Chan a chance, let alone the Han army from Hedong to rescue him.
In the afternoon of that day, the Wei army blocked the east gate, north gate, and south gate of Jinyang. Because the west gate was adjacent to Longshan, the Han army had already deployed a lot of troops here, and the Wei army had no chance to block the west gate.
Therefore, only the west gate was not besieged by the Wei army.
In addition to the 10,000 Wei troops surrounding the north and south gates, the remaining nearly 50,000 Wei troops were deployed at the east gate, ready to attack Jinyang at any time.
"Shoot!"
"Cum for me!"
Xia Houhui stood in front of the formation and kept urging the three-bow bed crossbow to attack Jinyang City. The Wei army also learned very cleverly. Although the range of the Wei army's bed crossbow was not as far as that of the Han army, it still had a range of three to four hundred steps.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
The spear with blossoming flames flew towards the top of Jinyang City.
This is why after Kebi was able to attack Fan Yang with muskets, now the Han and Wei armies are using muskets to attack at every turn. The Wei army seems to want to use this to burn down the city.
"Son of a bitch!"
Liu Chan couldn't help but feel angry secretly. If he had known that he would not leak out the three-bow bed crossbow, now the Wei army actually used the bed crossbow he made to attack him.
What's even worse is that Liu Chan used surprise troops again this time, hoping to quickly capture Jinyang. Now Jinyang was asked to be defeated by him, but he did not bring a three-bow crossbow.
Now——
The Han army could only hide at the top of the city and did not dare to take the lead.
Just——
It seems it is too late to regret now.
Leaving aside the fact that the prime minister secretly gave the retired three-bow bed crossbow to Ke Bineng, Liu Chan knew about it and agreed with it.
There is no other reason.
Because of the peace between Han and Wei, there will be no war between the two countries for the time being. However, if the Han Dynasty wants to restore the Han Dynasty, it will be a matter of time before it starts a war with Wei.
As the saying goes, a teacher must be famous.
For the sake of short-term peace, the Han Dynasty agreed to Cao Wei's marriage proposal.
If Cao Rui keeps developing, how will the Han Dynasty find a reason to start a war?
It is best to let Cao Rui take the initiative to attack.
So Prime Minister Zhuge thought of borrowing Ke Bineng's hand to give the three-bow bed crossbow to Cao Rui. After Cao Rui got the three-bow bed crossbow, he would naturally produce it in large quantities. At the same time, the Han's bed crossbow would appear in the Xianbei people's market. in my hand, so I hold a grudge.
At the same time, Ke Bi can also be used to harass Cao Wei.
Cao Wei goes to war with Xianbei, which can delay the development of Cao Wei, and the Han Dynasty can use this time to vigorously develop its national power.
The fact was just as Zhuge Liang expected. He secretly sent the eliminated three-bow bed crossbow to Ke Bineng. Soon after, Kebineng took the three-bow bed crossbow and started a war against Cao Wei.
However, Ke Bineng's strength was still a little lower, and he finally lost to Sima Yi, which also allowed Cao Wei to take the opportunity to destroy Gongsun Yuan in Liaodong.
Thinking about it now, Liu Chan actually couldn't blame the Prime Minister, because although it was apparently the Prime Minister who secretly gave it to Ke Bineng, the fact was that when Liu Chan was chatting with Zhuge Liang, Liu Chan deliberately mentioned that the enemy of his enemy was
Friends and enemies who secretly help their enemies can also be regarded as attacking their enemies.
As a result, not long after, Kebineng sent envoys to Chang'an, so Zhuge Liang secretly gave the eliminated three-bow bed crossbow to Kebineng.
But now——
Liu Chan frowned as he watched the spears flying towards the city.
'If I had known, if I had known, I would have brought some explosives.' Liu Chan murmured secretly.
Five years ago, Liu Chan used the saltpeter brought by Ma E to prepare black gunpowder. Although Liu Chan did not vigorously promote black gunpowder in the past five years, in the craftsmanship department of Weiyang Palace, a lot of saltpeter was refined. Although
I usually use a lot of it to make ice.
But——
In the basement of the Craftsmanship Department, there is still a lot of saltpeter in stock.
Liu Chan did not use black gunpowder in the military, mainly because the current smelting technology is still a bit backward. If you want to use black gunpowder in the military, you must first have excellent casting technology. Otherwise, even if you have black powder, it will only be made.
Some simple explosive bags.
But at this moment, Liu Chan thought of the explosive pack.
Because Cao Wei's muskets were so troublesome, the Han soldiers could only hide on the city wall, not even daring to come out for fear of being hit by the muskets.
If there are explosive packets, when the Wei army begins to attack the city, throw the explosive packets directly into the galloping Wei army formation.
When the explosive pack goes off, even if it doesn't kill the Wei army, it will scare them to death.
What a pity——
Money can't buy you, you know it early.
Liu Chan could only watch as Wei Jun's muskets continued to attack the city.
"Everyone is hiding!" Liu Chan reminded the Han soldiers from time to time, saying: "When the Wei army gets closer, everyone will come out."
"No!"
The soldiers leaned against the wall. At this moment, they especially listened to Liu Chan's words.
After all, they don’t want to die either.
