Wanyan Hujia stayed where he was. The large-scale commotion that suddenly broke out today diverted his attention, causing Wanyan Hujia to ignore the location of the granary.

He grabbed the informant angrily and said angrily: "Fart!"

As he spoke, he looked up and saw billowing smoke rising from the west of the city.

At that moment, Wanyan Hu Jia's face turned pale.

At this time, Wang Shen was standing in the granary covered in blood. He threw the last oil into the front room and set it on fire.

In order to burn everything quickly, they operate in multiple directions and ignite at multiple points.

"What a pity it is to burn these grains! Many people don't have enough to eat, but we still have to burn grains in this world!" Wang Shen sighed with emotion, "I hope there will be no more wars in the future, and we will not burn like this again.

It’s food.”

When Zhang Xiaochun saw the billowing smoke, he was ecstatic, but he couldn't show it.

Wu Jie was listening to the casualties of Guo Hao's morning siege. Li Heng on the side shouted: "Wu Tongzhi, look over there!"

They looked up and saw billowing smoke rising.

Wu Jie stayed where he was. Could it be that he succeeded?

Wanyan Hu Jia and his men rushed frantically towards the granary. The Tongjun Division was not too far away from the granary. When they arrived, the fire was already raging.

Wanyan Hujia's whole body collapsed on the ground.

As night falls, snow begins to fall in the sky, but the snow tonight is red.

Countless people lay dead on the streets, and their bodies were piled up and covered with snow.

The killing was not over yet. The knife passed through his neck, making a sound like chopping wood.

There are children sitting among the dead and crying, while wild dogs are eating the entrails in the corner.

On the day of the bloody battle in Taiyuan City, there was no peace in Shouyang, a hundred miles away.

After Wanyan's mother arrived in Shouyang, she launched the most violent attack on Shouyang, and the two sides started the most brutal war at the head of Shouyang City.

Countless people die in battle every day.

Wanyan's mother threatened that in just two days, on November 17, he would be able to capture Shouyang in one fell swoop and then kill everyone here to teach the Song army a lesson.

On November 17, the Jin army began to attack Shouyang again.

But on this day, Wanyan's mother received urgent information from Taiyuan.

When he learned that his granary in Taiyuan City had been burned down, he became furious and cursed Wanyan Hujia three hundred times.

Now Wanyan Yanmu has two paths to take:

First, if we run out of food, we should abandon Taiyuan and evacuate to Zhending Mansion.

Second, go back and continue fighting, defeat the main force of the Song army, and then go south to rob the Song people of their food.

Yelujin said worriedly: "Du Tong, the food has been burned. If there is a stalemate with the Song army, it will be detrimental to us!"

Obviously, Yelujin still maintains a cool head.

War is not a gamble. Without food as a backing, you can only make a desperate move, and you cannot even fight a longer war.

The soldiers could not even be informed that the food was burned, otherwise the whole army might mutiny immediately.

However, in the eyes of Wanyan's mother, Song Jun was still where he was five years ago.

He said arrogantly: "I only need one battle to defeat the Song army!"

Yelujin obviously could no longer persuade Wanyanja's mother.

On November 23, Wanyan Chamu returned to Taiyuan with his troops.

The original plan was for Wanyan Yanmu to return to Taiyuan after defeating Shouyang, and attack the Song army with the Jin army in the city.

However, at this time, street fighting in Taiyuan City was still going on on a small scale, and the Jin army in the city had been exhausted. If Taiyuan City was not so strong, the Song army would have attacked and completely occupied Taiyuan City.

"Report! Control, traces of the Jin Army were found thirty miles east." The scout brought back the news of the Jin Army.

Wu Jie said: "Have all the pits been checked?"

"Checked."

"Okay, pass on the order, the whole army is on defense, no attack without authorization."

"yes!"

Guo Hao said: "Wu Tongzhi, the last general is willing to be the vanguard and fight to the death with the Jin people!"

"Why are you so anxious? Wanyan Yan's mother's food has been burned. He must have known the situation. He must be very anxious now and eager to fight decisively. We will not fight decisively. We will dig the trap well so that they don't dare to come over casually and waste his life.

Ten days and a half, wait until his military morale is gone before we fight again!" Wu Jie said with a smile.

He smiled so kindly, like a big brother next door: "In command of the armies, you should calm down. Now is the time when the enemy is most impatient."

Guo Hao said: "The commander is right, I don't know what is going on in Taiyuan City now."

Wu Jie sighed and said, "I'm not optimistic."

Guo Hao also sighed: "I wonder when this war will end."

Everyone misses the peace of the past, but everyone knows that peace is gone forever.

Countless people buried their bones in Hebei and Hedong. Blood and fire shattered the old dreams of the past. People were forced to throw away their hoes and pick up swords.

Countless mothers will lose their sons, and children will lose their fathers.

If you have not experienced the cruelty of war, it is difficult to appreciate the preciousness of peace.

At noon, Wanyan's mother's army came in force.

They looked far away and could see Taiyuan City under the sky.

Nothing seems to have changed, but everything has.

"Report! Commander, we found a lot of traps in the front!" The scout brought back the intelligence from the front.

"These Song dogs!" Wanyan's mother scolded, "despicable!"

Yelujin said: "How long is the horse trap? Can the army make a detour?"

"If we take a detour, the army may be exposed to the main force of the Song army, which is very dangerous."

Wanyan's mother ordered: "Detour! I don't believe Song Dog dares to attack us!"

The Jin army began to bypass the trap.

"Report! Control, the Jin army has begun to make a detour." The scout sent the information about the Jin army. Wu Jie was studying in the army, and he was watching attentively.

Zong Ying walked in and said, "Tongzhi, the Jin army is preparing to circle to the west and attack us."

"How's the digging of the horse trap to the west going?"

"It's all dug out." Zong Ying couldn't help but want to laugh. It turned out that this was the purpose of digging out the horse pit. "They can't get through."

"Are the raiding cavalry ready?"

Guo Hao said: "We are all waiting. I will go there in person when the time comes!"

This is also thanks to Zhao Ning's construction of an engineer shovel.

The engineer shovel was not invented until World War I.

It's not that this thing is difficult, but it's not that it was needed in previous wars.

The iteration of weapons in World War I required a large number of trenches, so the engineer shovel appeared.

When the Song Dynasty wanted to deal with the Jin cavalry, it was not realistic to expect to dig trenches, but at least it could create some trouble.

In just a few days, the Song army dug several deep ditches around Taiyuan City, almost isolating Taiyuan City inside.

It is almost impossible for the Jin army's cavalry to cross over, which is equivalent to isolating Wanyan Yanmu from the Jin army in the city.

Wanyan's mother had no food supplies, and the Jin army in the city also had no food supplies.

As for the Song army, they only had enough food. They sat behind the trench, supported the wooden stakes, and set up their crossbows.

When Wanyan Yanmu went around to the west of Taiyuan City in the afternoon, she discovered that there was actually a fucking trench there.
Chapter completed!
