Back to the Song Dynasty: The Rise of an Empire

If the Tang Empire won, it would say to its opponents: "You damn well behave yourself in the future, or be careful that I wipe out your entire clan. Pay tribute obediently every year!"

Chapter 307 Yue Fei's Army's Strong Attack

"Is that so?" Ren Duochuqing's sharp gaze seemed to see right through Yeli Qingge's heart.

"Yes!" Yeli Qingge said, "I don't know where His Majesty is, I will go to see him right away."

"General, you must not go to see His Majesty now, or your life will be in danger."

"impossible!"

"General, why would I lie to you?"

Yeli Qingge was slightly taken aback, and he really couldn't figure out why the other party would use this to deceive him.

Renduo Chuqing shifted his gaze and looked into the city.

He saw women in the city streets, some of whom had smashed their heads against walls to their deaths, and others who were unconscious. He also saw some Song soldiers who were emaciated, almost skin and bones, and looked like they couldn't even fill out their armor, but their posture was still as straight as spears.

Renduo Chuqing was slightly taken aback, then rode his horse into the city.

He saw more and more Song soldiers still alive looking like this. He saw soldiers by the roadside with their stomachs pierced by a knife, with some scraps of leather inside, and nothing else.

Before long, the quartermaster ran up and said, "General Yeli, there is no more food in the city."

Yeli Qingge's furry face immediately changed: "What! Impossible! Search! Dig three feet into the ground! Torture all these people and find the Song army's grain supplies!"

Ren Duochuqing said, "No need, there's no food left in this city!"

Yeli Qingge said, "Impossible! If there's no food, how could the Song army have held out for so long!"

From afar came the mockery and disdain of the Xia soldiers towards the Song army. To vent their frustration at the unsuccessful siege, the killing had already begun.
