Chapter 179 (2/2)
”Well, well, to tell you the truth, it was designed by the Emperor himself. With such weapons, why should I worry about my long-term success?”
After that, all the generals nodded.
All the generals said with admiration: ”Your Majesty is extremely intelligent, which is really the blessing of all the people! Before that, there were four books of merit and virtue, as well as wisdom and courage. We have such a commander-in-chief. This is the blessing of a hundred generations of cultivation! ”
At this time, Zhang Kui and his wife showed the most.
I saw and heard that the grand master suddenly said to Zhang Kui and his wife, ”two lucky generals, now Su Hu is afraid that he has broken his courage. What should we do now?”
Zhang Kui knew that he had been tested by the grand master. He thought about it for a long time before he said, ”grand master, when your majesty went out to battle, he was a teacher of benevolence and righteousness, so we can't attack the city by force. It must be very easy for us to rush into Jizhou with such weapons as commercial cannons? However, the end will have another way, if not, direct Siege! Cut off their food and grass, within a few months, Su Hu will take the initiative to show the city! And in the name of your Majesty's benevolence and righteousness. ”
Hearing Zhang Kui's words, the grand master thought to himself, if your majesty really knows the Pearl with wise eyes, why didn't you find out so early as a brave and resourceful officer like Zhang Kui.
This strategy of Zhang Kui coincides with that of Wen Taishi.
It can be said that this is the best way, and can give his Majesty the best name of benevolence and righteousness, but also can let Su Hu not fight and surrender.
Wen Taishi nodded: ”this plan is very wonderful. He ordered the three armed forces to besiege the city in four ways. They are not allowed to enter the city. They can't get it.”
After the order was given, the troops brought by the grand division immediately surrounded Jizhou city.
The news of the siege spread all over Jizhou city in an instant. All of a sudden, the generals, officials and people in the city were in a panic.
After all, being besieged, they will face the possibility that there will be no food in the future, but they will naturally starve to death
So there are rumors in the city that Su Hu, the Marquis of Jizhou, disobeyed his Majesty's order to make everyone rich in Jizhou for his own self-interest, which made the emperor angry before attacking Jizhou.
