Chapter 502 Suspend the attack

Overnight, Zhao Bing felt that he had no freedom again, but he did not try to resist again, but accepted it safely because he did not want to be killed and received. Biqu     'ΩΔ Pavilion Ww     W.

BiQuGe.

CN But Pu Shougeng is still so stingy. In his eyes, his emperor is only worth a thousand taels of gold. It is so cheap. There is no such thing as scolding people! No matter what purpose, Zhao Bing must destroy Pu Shougeng today. He changed into military uniform early in the morning, with a helmet and armor, and a short knife on his waist. If he hadn't been erect, he would have the charming style of "Little Captain".

Under strict protection, Zhao Bing climbed the South City Tower. At this time, the city was cleaned up, but the bloodstains and ruins on it could still make people see how fierce the battle was. At this time, the city was guarded by the guard camp and a cordon was arranged. Zheng Yong led the guard of the guards to take their seats on the sea surface of the city. Only then did the guard of ceremonies be set up and the imperial flag was raised.

Zhao Bing looked around and saw that not only Ying Jieyan, but also Cai Wanyi and other generals personally protected themselves like facing a great enemy. Even Yuan Miao, who never appeared in public, was mixed in. In addition, there were some unrecognizable faces among the guards. There was no need to ask that this was the person from the Affairs Bureau brought by Zheng Huchen. It can be said that everything was arranged openly and secretly. If someone wanted to get close to him, he would have to airborne him, but he would also avoid the arrow net woven by the crossbows.

Holding up the telescope, Zhao Bing looked down at the city, and everything was clear. Since the city was built with the river, the city walls were curved and not as square as other cities. Because it looked like a carp, it was named "Car City". Since there was no large-scale battle in the city, everything basically maintained its original appearance, but there was no prosperity of the past at this moment, and everything was shrouded in a solemn atmosphere.

Zhao Bing's gaze quickly turned to Pu Mansion located in the south of the city. Thinking about how many expansions of Quanzhou City were only twenty miles in circumference, which was five miles in length. However, it gathered more than 200,000 people, and there were many commercial ports and dense crowds. It can be said that every inch of land is valuable. However, his family occupied a large mansion of 300 acres in the south of the city. From this, it can be seen that his status and financial resources in Quanzhou are seen.

Look at the Pu family courtyard, the pavilions and towers are all available, with small bridges and flowing water and flowers blooming. But Zhao Bing is not concerned about this at the moment, but he sees that the walls of his family are indeed tall, basically level with Zicheng, with battle walls and corner towers built on them, and the upper is covered with military soldiers. As Zhang Shijie said outside the courtyard, the surrounding alleys are tortuous, and it is difficult to arrange troops except for the wide front, and they are all within the range of the archers of the defenders in the palace, so it is not easy to get close.

"Sir, if Pu Zhe wants to run away, where do you think you will break out?" Zhao Bing asked after looking.

"Your Majesty, I think he will not think of breaking through!" Ying Jieyan replied, "The outer city has been completely controlled by our army. All the city gates are guarded by heavy troops, and there are also signs of signs in the city. If he breaks through, he is only seeking death. It is better to be guarding the palace and wait for reinforcements."

"Well, what sir said. But I still feel something is wrong. He gave up the city defense and entered the prefectures and gave up the escape route. But he was cunning, how could he put himself in a dangerous place without leaving a way out!" Zhao Bing felt uneasy in his heart and frowned.

"Hiss..." Ying Jieyan took a chill and said, "Your Majesty is right. The cunning rabbit has three holes. The Pu thief not only has a mansion in the city, but also has an outer house and a garden in the Yunlu of the Dharma Stone. The Dharma Stone Port is regarded as their brother's special ship Macao, and is moored to the Pu family's fleet. Could it be that he has escaped from the city?"

"I think that when the city falls, the Pu thieves should still be in the city. Otherwise, how could officials in the city dare to give up the city defense easily and turn to Pu's private house to resist stubbornly!" Zhao Bing thought about it.

"Well, Your Majesty's analysis is reasonable, but the Quanzhou city was all over our army for a day. He should also understand that it is difficult to defend his private house, and he will not only place his hope of saving his life on Suodu. Then he is calm and composed. Will he have already chosen a way to escape?" Ying Jieyan felt that it was true. If Pu Shougen was not in the city, those shrimp soldiers and crab generals would only rob the Pu family first, instead of retreating to defend the dead. Therefore, it should be that he was ordered by Pu Shougen. However, it is very likely that he did this because the city was suddenly surrounded, so he could not transfer his family's wealth, and could only try to delay time to transfer his property. However, the city was surrounded by three floors inside and outside, and he could not figure out how to do it.

"I think there should be escape passages such as dark rooms and secret passages in the mansion, leading to hidden places in the city, or even outside the city. Once the house is broken, you will immediately escape!" Zhao Bing nodded and said.

"With this possibility, ordinary Xiaofu family will build a dark room to prevent thieves. Quanzhou was repeatedly invaded by pirates. In addition to raising private soldiers to protect the house, they must also have another place to escape with treasures." Ying Jie Yan Yan said, thinking that how did his disciple understand such a crooked and evil thing so well?

"There are rivers everywhere in Quanzhou, and the groundwater is very shallow. When the ground is dug three feet away, water will gush out. If the tunnel leaves the city, it will have to penetrate two or three feet deep. It is probably difficult to complete such a large project even with the financial resources of the Pu family!" Zhao Bing thought that it was impossible for Pu Shougeng to escape from the city and use the method of excavating secret passages. It is not easy to dig such a long tunnel under the water with modern technology, and it will also encounter problems such as leakage and collapse.

"Your Majesty, there are secret passages in this city that can reach the outside of the city!" Cai Wanyi suddenly interrupted.

"Oh, tell me!" Zhao Bing asked anxiously.

"Your Majesty, Quanzhou City is built against the sea, and water flows through the city, so there will be a risk of tides flowing backwards. In order to prevent tides from flooding the city, water in the city can flow out of the city. At the beginning of the construction of the city, a moisture-proof dam was built and a gate that can be opened and closed. When the tide rises, the gate is closed, and when the tide recedes, the gate is opened and then flooding is opened. Because the city has been expanded repeatedly, a section of dam is buried underground." Cai Wanyi replied.

"Water is always available in the dam, so how can it be passed?" Ying Jieyan felt it was unlikely and asked back.

"Ying Shuai didn't know that the dam was more than 100 meters deep, more than 2 meters wide, and half a 100 meters narrow. If it was not full at the tide, a small boat could be used in the secret passage!" Cai Wanyi explained again, "There is a garden pond in the Pu family, which is the water in the trench that is connected to each other. If you pass the secret passage, you can dive out of the city for several miles!"
