Vol 2 Chapter 163: Negotiate strategies (one more)

Su Fengnuan walked closer and looked at Xu Yunchu with raised eyebrows.
Xu Yunchu smiled at Su Fengnuan and said warmly,
I’m not very tired and can’t sleep, so I’ll go out and see if I can help.

Su Fengnuan smiled and suggested that Su Zhen would take all the soldiers to dig trenches outside the four cities and prepare to enclose the fire dragon in order to stop the Northern Zhou soldiers and horses.
Xu Yunchu smiled and praised, "I heard about it when I first came out. This is indeed a surprisingly good strategy."
Su Fengnuan said, "If what I expected is not bad, I will go back tonight and Chu Han will find out. I will not attack the city tomorrow. If I attack the city tomorrow night, work day and night, and the fire dragon of the gully will be completed. "
Xu Yunchu nodded, "If 70,000 soldiers and horses are used, it's almost the same."
Su Fengnuan looked at the incineration site and said with a smile, "From the day when soldiers and horses in the Northern Zhou Dynasty invaded Yanbei, there were only less than five thousand guards in the Yanbei Palace before I came to Yanbei. , The loss of 45,000. Tonight, the Bei Zhou attacked the city, and I tried everything, but I still lost two thousand guards, and now there are only 3,000 people left in the Yanbei guards. And the 30,000 capitals I brought You have lost more than ten thousand soldiers and horses tonight. Now you have brought the emperor’s fifty thousand imperial forest troops. All the soldiers and horses in the city together, the number of seventy thousand is not enough to fight the hundreds of thousands of troops in the Northern Zhou Dynasty. So I Thinking of using this method, it would be best to stop the soldiers from the Northern Zhou Dynasty from attacking the city again without a single soldier. Otherwise, I am afraid that even if we die until the soldiers and horses arrive in the West, there will be few people left."
Xu Yunchu also looked at the incineration site, where the flames soared to the sky, it had been burning for more than an hour and was still going on. He nodded, smiled, and said in a deep voice, "You are right. Once the gully fire dragon ignites, it will definitely prevent the Northern Zhou soldiers from approaching the West City Gate. If you can't get close, there will be no way to attack the city." , Said again, "But water can extinguish the fire, if the Northern Zhou Dynasty draws water to extinguish it..."
Su Fengnuan said, "The land of Yanbei is cold and hard, so the moat dried up decades ago. The nearest water sources to Yanbei City are Heishui River and Qingshuitan, but the nearest source is also dozens of miles away. The water diversion in the city was connected to Qingquanling a hundred miles away with iron pipes, but it was buried more than ten feet underground. Since they could not enter the city, they would naturally not be able to access the water source in the city. Therefore, Chu Han came to attack Yanbei. The rear camp was anchored thirty miles away because it was close to the Qingshuitan. The soldiers of the Northern Zhou Dynasty used the water from the Qingshuitan to divert the water."
Xu Yunchu suddenly said, "In this way, Chu Han can't bring water to put out the fire."
Su Fengnuan nodded, "Even if he wants to divert water to extinguish the fire, it will take a lot of time. What we want now is to delay time and wait for the rescuers in the West."
Xu Yunchu nodded and suddenly asked, "Is it possible for us to go to Qingshuitan to get poisoned? Since the soldiers and horses of the Northern Zhou Dynasty diverted water to Qingshuitan, once they were all poisoned..."
Su Fengnuan sighed, "I've thought about this, but the water from Qingshuitan runs straight to Qingquan Ridge and poisons Qingshuitan, unless we don't drink the water from Qingshuitan, hurting the enemy a thousand and hurting ourselves 800. "The words fell, and he said, "The entire people of Yanbei are diverting the water from Qingquanling. Once the Qingshuitan is poisoned, then the damage will not only be to the Northern Zhou army and Yanbei city, but also the people of the entire Yanbei area. "
Xu Yunchu stopped thinking immediately and said, "It's really undesirable, no matter if you don't want it."
Su Fengnuan smiled, looked at the northern sky, and sighed, "Even if it is desirable, it is not possible. The two countries are at war. Although the Northern Zhou Dynasty is not benevolent, the wolf's ambitions violated Nanqi, and I was in Fengkou Mountain earlier. , It caused the fire in the mountains and forests and burned 90,000 soldiers and horses in the Chu Han. Although it was the Northern Zhou dynasty who took the blame, it was really a crime.
Xu Yunchu heard this and said, "Girls have a benevolent heart."
Su Fengnuan sneered, shook his head, and looked at him and said, "If I had a benevolent heart, I would not set fire to the mountains and burn the Chu with 90,000 soldiers and horses. It's just that the poison is serious, if it is light, it will be drugged. A doctor in the army can easily solve it. The poisonous medicine is life-threatening. The hundreds of thousands of troops in the Northern Zhou Dynasty were poisoned to death. If there are gods and Buddhas in the world, I am afraid that they should not."
Xu Yunchu smiled, "I remember the girl said earlier that she didn't believe in Buddha."
Su Fengnuan grinned, "I don't believe in Buddhism, but I imagine that if hundreds of thousands of troops in the Northern Zhou Dynasty were poisoned to death, if they were not handled properly, the people of Yanbei would suffer from water diversion, and it might even cause a plague. Spread, then the entire Yanbei will be over. We are here to save Yanbei, not to fight for war, not to make all the soldiers and horses of the Northern Zhou Dynasty die in order to achieve the goal. To save the people of Yanbei and retreat the Northern Zhou Dynasty is the goal. "
Xu Yunchu was ashamed and authentic, "Yunchu is not talented and narrow-minded. What the girl said is extremely true."
Su Fengnuan smiled and shook his head, "Uncle Xiaoguo is self-effacing. You are not narrow-minded. Under the circumstances, you should think of some special methods without getting out of the box. In front of the major issues of the family and the country, don't talk about your heart." The words fell. She smiled, "It's just that I have already burned Chuhan's 90,000 army. This kind of sinfulness is not forced by helplessness, but there is a slight other way, and I don't want to be charred."
Xu Yunchu also smiled and said, "The Northern Zhou Dynasty is coming fiercely and vowed to break the Yanbei City. Even if we have the heart of heaven and good life, I am afraid that the Northern Zhou Dynasty will not think so and will not easily retreat."
Su Fengnuan said, "For many years in the Northern Zhou Dynasty, the country is rich and strong, and we are not afraid of fighting, but we in Nanqi are now suffering from internal and external troubles. Over time, the supply of grain, grass, and weapons will be insufficient and we cannot afford to delay. Therefore, when the soldiers and horses from the West come, we still have to He slapped Chu Han severely, and then told him to retreat and roll back to the Northern Zhou Dynasty."
Xu Yunchu nodded, "Indeed, we in Nanqi are now afraid of war." He said, "But the prince of Bei Tuesday, Chu Han, is an ambitious man. If he doesn't give him a lesson, he will return to Bei Zhou. Repeat."
Su Fengnuan knocked his head and said softly, "When I was in the West, I seriously injured him, but I didn't kill him. It was because of a piece of cold jade. The day before yesterday, I was on the bank of the Heishui River. I had a chance to kill him. But because my cousin Su Sixuan was in his hands, I was threatened by him and failed to kill him. Now it is not easy to find a third chance."
Xu Yunchu said, "Among the princes of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, this second prince alone dominates. The other princes do not have the ambition and ability of this second prince. Therefore, they are not as favored as the second prince. But the other princes have been suppressed by him for a long time. There is also a lot of dissatisfaction. If we find a way to make the Northern Zhou Dynasty unrest and the royal princes fight, perhaps the Northern Zhou Dynasty will no longer have time to launch troops to attack the Southern Qi. We will eliminate internal worries and accelerate the military power. When the Northern Zhou Dynasty commits another crime, we will not be afraid."
Su Feng Nuan smiled, "This is a good idea. When the soldiers from the West Territory arrive, we will fight a fierce battle. After Chu Han retreats, we will find a way to get them to fight inwardly. Chu Han lost the battle. Countless soldiers and horses died and wounded, even if the King of Northern Zhou spoiled him again, he would be somewhat dissatisfied. If he had something else, the princes would deal with him unanimously, and he would feel better."
Xu Yunchu nodded with a smile, "Exactly."
The two were talking, Su Zhen walked over from Qianjie, and when they saw them, they immediately said, "I will arrange the soldiers to dig trenches in turn, rest in batches, and dig in batches. In this case, the effect is higher." Luo said to Erren, "You go back and rest, especially Uncle Xiaoguo. You rushed from Beijing, haven't you rested well? I'm staring in the city, you go."
Xu Yunchu smiled and said, "I couldn't sleep, so I came out and wandered around. Now Miss Su has already thought of a countermeasure. I can take a rest."
Su Zhen stepped forward and patted Xu Yunchu's shoulder, "Go! Waiting for the soldiers and horses to come to the West to beat the Northern Zhou Dynasty, we will drink again."
Xu Yunchu promised with a smile.
Although Su Fengnuan was not too tired, Su Zhen insisted on letting her go back to rest, and she stopped shirking and returned to the Yanbei Palace.
She returned to her yard in the Yanbei Palace, and saw Su Sixuan waiting in the yard. She was sitting on a wicker chair, holding a branch in her hand and paddling on the ground. She raised her eyebrows slightly and asked , "It's so late, why haven't you stopped? What are you doing here?"
Su Sixuan raised her head when she heard the sound, threw the branch in the water, immediately got off the wicker chair, and quickly walked towards Su Fengnuan, "Sister, are you back?"
Su Fengnuan nodded and looked at her, only to see that she had obviously been freshened up, much cleaner than at night.
Su Sixuan came to the front, looked at Su Fengnuan, and whispered, "Sister, can I ask you something? Without asking, I can't sleep..."
Su Fengnuan looked at her and saw that she was a little embarrassed on her face. She raised her eyebrows and tapped her and said, "Are you asking about Uncle Xiaoguo?"
Su Sixuan was shocked and looked at her with wide eyes, "How do you know?"
Su Feng Nuan smiled, walked to the wicker chair and sat down casually, and said casually, "What do you want to ask him? Does he have someone he likes? Is there a marriage? Or is there any woman who likes him? What is his family background? Who are there in the family? How is his character? Is it good?"
Su Sixuan opened her eyes even more, looking at Su Fengnuan, she seemed shocked and dumbfounded.
