Chapter 682: Should we keep this Jingyuan Fort or not? (Second update)
"This is not complicated at all. Zhao Adban, please explain it to General Yao. After all, you have been in charge of this matter of climbing the immortal boat."
"General Yao, we communicate with Dengxianzhou through message tubes and flags."
"The flag language...is the flag command?"
"No, no, no, semaphore is the military order that the generals intend to convey. Through the color of the flag and specific movements, it is conveyed to professionals who understand semaphore..."
After Zhao Yaban explained, Gao Zhang saw that the generals of the Western Army seemed confused and laughed.
"Why not, please generals, please think about it and prepare for the soldiers and horses three doors away to do something or make some noise."
"Here, Zhao Adban and the others will be responsible for delivering the news. You will know after one try."
After hearing Gao Zhang's words, all the generals of the Western Army were ready to take action. At this time, Miao Lu couldn't help but was the first to stand up.
"Since Privy Gao is destined, I will be willing to give it a try."
After all, this guy actually made it so complicated, and it was obvious that he wanted to make things difficult for others.
After Zhong Shidao had a low-pitched exchange with a group of Western Army generals, he stepped forward and said respectfully to Gao Zhang.
Miao Lu, who had already felt regret in her heart, quickly opened her mouth to make amends.
"Is this too complicated? If it's not appropriate, then it will be changed."
"Okay, please also ask Zhao Yaban to tell the southern soldiers to beat the drum ten times, and then let the north ring the gold ten times, and finally let the west ring three times for the great victory of the Song Dynasty."
"..." Looking at this Privy Councilor Gao who was so casual, as if he was asking someone if he wanted to add something to his meal at night.
As the round thing rose higher and higher, it looked like a black dot from below.
In addition to the dozen or so people here who are employees of Duan's Trading Company, there are three others who are detectives from the Imperial City who are lurking here.
"Zhao Adban, go ahead..."
Miao Lu, who had just thrown out this difficult problem, now stepped forward with sincerity and bowed deeply to Gao Zhang to apologize.
"General Miao, please give the order." Zhao Yaban confidently stood in front of Miao Lu.
But everyone's heart felt like a heavy boulder was pressing down on their heart and liver, making them breathless.
#####
At this moment, a lot of people had gathered in Duan's Trading Company, which was located in the center of Jingyuan Castle. Everyone looked a little anxious and a little bit excited.
Similarly, the generals of the Western Army of the Song Dynasty standing outside the East City Gate also heard various noises coming from the south, north, and west.
#####
The Xixia soldiers on the city saw that the round thing as big as a room could actually float in the sky.
"Then how about leaving some defensive facilities such as city walls and gates?"
At this time, Maledubu suddenly heard the sound of military drums coming from the south, and immediately ordered his soldiers to rush over to see if the Song army intended to launch an attack.
"Next, I would like to invite you generals to sit down and watch how our imperial army of the Song Dynasty conquers this city."
As the supreme commander of Jingyuan Fort, Meledubu no longer knew what language to use to express his feelings at the moment.
"Okay, here's my military order. All artillery groups in the four directions should aim at the back of the city wall and open fire after ten breaths."
Gao Zhang stood outside Jingyuan Fort and commanded calmly, as if he was splashing ink with ease and ease.
Duan's trading company now has business premises in various counties in Xixia, and all business premises will be located in the middle of the town.
However, I saw that Gao Zhang still had a calm smile on his face, as if he was unmoved.
Seeing that these Western generals had united their opinions, Gao Zhang, who had finished showing off, calmly nodded in agreement and turned around to look at Lu Qian.
Under everyone's gaze, the message box was pulled up by the red rope, quickly rose towards the sky, and disappeared from people's sight in a few blinks.
The young boy in front of me can easily turn him into a humble official and a privy minister.
From the moment the city-wide alarm went off, they had already taken the initiative to rush to Duan's Trading Company.
"Reporting to Lord Zhuangyuan, all thunderbolt batteries have been loaded and are waiting for orders."
Just when everyone was puzzled, the shouts of Song troops came from the west. Thousands of Song troops shouted Song Wansheng's roar outside the city. Even the soldiers standing on the top of the east city city
Melatubu also heard it clearly.
"Are the thunder cannons ready?"
"But before that, I would like to ask the generals, should we keep this Jingyuan Fort or not?"
"Privy Councilor Gao, we think it would be best if we could stay, but if we can't break the city..."
Zhao Yaoban was so happy that he shouted loudly and walked away quickly. After quickly recording the orders that Miao Lu told him, he stuffed them into the message box and fixed the message box on the hanging red rope.
Go up and pull it three times.
What kind of tricks are the Song troops outside the city making? Is this a trick? But the military drums and the ringing gold are the equipment used by the Song army to direct the army's advance and retreat.
Is that the gods doing magic? Could it be that this is the Taoist magic that the people of the Song Dynasty believed in...
At this moment, the countless party warriors around Maledubu looked timid and began to pray for blessings from the chanting scriptures of the Buddhas in the Western Heavens that they believed in.
All the common people and soldiers in the city were in commotion, and the shouts of the Song army soldiers made the defenders in the city even more frightened.
As soon as this request came out, the faces of several Forbidden Army generals darkened, and the faces of a group of Western Army generals also looked a little unhappy.
This order had been determined as early as when we first opened our business premises in Xixia.
"General, you don't have to be like this. After all, it's normal to have doubts when you see this thing for the first time."
Gao Zhang showed an indifferent smile to Miao Lu, turned to Zhao Yaban, nodded and gave instructions.
As soon as Miao Lu finished gibbering, he felt those unkind eyes falling on him, and his heart trembled.
However, the Song army in the south stopped beating their drums ten times, while the Song army in the north actually started to beat the drums. Now, not only Mele was embarrassed, but also all the Xixia soldiers were a little confused.
"...If this can be done, it would be great. After the war, our army will be stationed here to prevent Xixia from retaking Jingyuan Fort."
Only Gao Zhang understood why he wanted Duan Zhongping to insist on this order. The reason was that once gunpowder weapons were used to attack the city.
The most unlucky ones are definitely the residences close to the city wall, only the center is the safest.
On the city wall, there were nearly 10,000 Xixia soldiers and horses, as well as nearly 30,000 young men and women, making it seem as if an airtight fence had been erected on the wall of Jingyuan Fort.
The Xixia soldiers, who had been fighting against the Song Kingdom for many years and had always maintained a strong psychological advantage, felt that the Song army's actions today were deeply evil.
