The Rise of the Song People of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 1060 Corpse Siege
Only one day has passed since the battle to rescue Yelu Tulu, and the next day Hulagu, Zhang Rou, and Guo Kan started attacking the city again!
At the beginning, it was still a stone bomb, but after two days, it was no longer a boulder bomb, but the corpse of the previous Liao army.

The weather is very hot now, and the corpse was thrown into Yunhai City after two or three days. This is obviously a poisonous plan such as bacterial warfare!

Naturally, this is not the first time for the Mongols to do this. They played this trick when the Mongols attacked the city of Kaffa, which caused a major outbreak of the Black Death in Europe in history.

The Black Death is the plague. Although the plague was not explicitly mentioned in the history of China, large-scale plagues continued to appear.

In the original time and space, the decades-long plague from the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty to the early Three Kingdoms period caused countless deaths. It was under such circumstances that Zhang Zhongjing devoted himself to research and wrote the masterpiece "Treatise on Febrile Diseases and Miscellaneous Diseases".

For example, the famous Battle of Chibi in history was a battle in which Cao Ying retreated due to the epidemic of plague.

However, there is no precedent for using the plague as a weapon of war in China, because the war in China is not for the sake of killing, but ultimately for the sake of population and territory to improve one's own strength.

In China, Boss Cao, Xiang Yu massacred the city, and murdered captives have been accused by thousands of people, and they have been infamous for the rest of their lives.

The Mongols were different. Slaughtering cities was commonplace for them, and killing for the sake of killing did not blink at all. Using corpses as an attack method did not think about any consequences at all.

When Temujin went south, he didn't think about asking for territory at all, but purely killing to avenge his hatred!

One after another Khitan corpses were hit on the city wall, and the flesh and blood were smashed to pieces.

"@"&"All the soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty were full of fragrance, cursing the Mongols for being despicable and shameless!
The Khitans such as Yelu Tulu, Yelu Jilie, Yelu Bali, Yelu Fulisi and so on are even more eye-opening, wishing they could fight the Mongols now.

But now that the Khitan people are all disarmed and controlled, naturally they have no choice but to curse with their mouths.

This is also Shi Tianze's poisonous plan. Since the Song people took in the Khitan people, using these corpses to stimulate the Khitan people will definitely make both sides suspicious.

But Shi Tianze's scheme failed!

At the first moment when the Khitan people went to Yunhe City, Zhou Buyi ordered all the Khitan people's weapons to be disarmed, or they would be killed.

Under the threat of arrows from countless crossbowmen, and under the watchful eyes of Gan Ning and Hu Yanzan, Yelu Tuluqian, Yelu Jilie, Yelu Bali, Yelu Fulisi and others could only put down their weapons.

So Shi Tianze tried to use the Khitan people to complete the plan of the civil strife in Heyun City, but it was resolved by Zhou Buyi before it even started.

However, in the face of these corpses, Zhou Buyi immediately ordered to collect the corpses and burn them.

Use mugwort leaves, vinegar, lime, etc. to disinfect the walls and city walls one by one.

The soldiers who were splashed by the corpse water immediately replaced the reserve team and went to the rear for unified treatment.

This is Zhang Zhongjing's experience in dealing with the plague in "Treatise on Febrile and Miscellaneous Diseases" and today's emperor.

These methods are all in practice, and are recorded in the "Da Song Da Dian·Medical Chapter" through the methods approved by many miracle doctors.

Zhou Buyi, who has read a lot of books, has read "Da Song Da Dian·Medical Chapter" in the palace, and recorded them one by one with the talent of photographic memory.

Now that these medical knowledge are used one by one, even if Zhou Buyi is not here, Guo Fan is a military doctor in Yue Fei's formation.

I will also point out these one by one, so the Mongols act like villains this time!

Soon all the corpses of the Khitan people were thrown into Yunhe City. Unless the Mongols also used their own corpses as ammunition, there would not be so many corpses.

Originally, the Mongols thought that this method would fill the city with plague, but after waiting for half a month, there was no response in Yunhe City.

Xu Liewu, Zhang Rou, Guo Kan and others knew that this method might also be ineffective against Song Jiancheng!
To the southwest of Yunhe City, it is on the edge of a large lake called Yunhe. The reason why Yunhe City is called this name is because it is a city built on a lake.

Cloud River City is not a square city, but an irregular shape, with a water gate directly above the Great Lake.

The big Zhuque banner in the Song Dynasty barracks on the southwest side of Yunhe Lake represents the identity of the marshal of this army.

Lu Xun, Marshal of Southern Suzaku in the Great Song Dynasty, commanded a full half of the forbidden army stationed here.

"Marshal Qi reported that the Mongols attacked the city again, but they were all beaten down by Marshal Xuanwu." The scout reported to Lu Xun the news of the Mongolian army in the past five days.

Looking at the surrounding terrain, Lu Xun was thinking, it is easy to repel the Mongolian army, but it is very difficult to destroy this army.

There is no cover on the grassland, and the attack conditions are very difficult.

But after five days of observation, when both Guo Kan and Zhang Rou were attacking the city, the scouts were scattered around.

Both of them are cautious people, which greatly increases the difficulty of the attack, and there is only one chance to seriously injure the enemy.

"How is the raft doing?" Lu Xun asked Gu Tan, the adjutant of the Quartermaster.

"Report to Marshal, there are still two days left, no, one more day to complete the number of rafts."

Gu Tan first paid respects and then reported that this person is Gu Shao's son and also Gu Yong's grandson, an authentic relative.

Time has passed, and now the Song Dynasty, the third generation has entered the officialdom.

"For example, if it is completed before You o'clock tomorrow, send someone to notify Marshal Yue Fei to coordinate the attack tomorrow night."

"Here!" Gu Tan immediately left the military tent as soon as he paid his respects.

"Here!" The same man in black also took the order.

Soon a water ghost set off from Lu Xun's barracks, swimming normally at first, and halfway approached the detection range of the Mongols.

He began to dive into the bottom of the lake, and only occasionally borrowed reeds to breathe and swam towards Yunhe City.

Near the water gate of Yunhe City, this person found that the Mongols were attacking the city, and this person was not worried that the Mongols, like all other nomads, had no navy.

So the water gate is still quiet, but at this time there are still constant scouts patrolling.

Cloud River City stood tall on the grassland and was extremely empty, so if there was any movement in the city at this time, it would be noticed immediately.

So this person waited obstinately until it was dark before sending out a signal to enter Cloud River City.

Some people will refute, so why not come at night?

In the dead of night, Zhang Rou and Guo Kan are not unknown people. Although Xu Liewu is young, he is a military genius, and there are scouts patrolling non-stop at night.

During the day, the sound of the Mongols attacking the city was covered up, but at night, the movement of swimming was very quiet and could be easily spotted by scouts.

In short, with the cautiousness of Xu Liewu, Zhang Rou, and Guo Kan, there is only one chance to attack!
After a night of silence, Xu Liegu took turns to attack the city the next day, and there was nothing he could do about Yunhe City where Yue Fei was stationed.

But Xu Liewu, Zhang Rou, Guo Kan and the others didn't know that the opponents fighting today were not the elite Yue family army from the previous few days.

Yue Fei received the news and took advantage of the night to replace the reserve guards stationed in the city, and the elite replaced them to recharge their batteries.

On this day, the defenders of the city were all reserve soldiers, while the Yue Family Army and the various legions waited impatiently until the evening.
