Reborn in the Water Margin as emperor, built tanks to level the world

"Anyway, your martial arts skills are average, and your riding and shooting skills on horseback are far inferior to those of Lu Yuanwai and others."

"Even so, if we rush out rashly this time, there is a high probability that we will lose our lives."

As soon as Li Kui said this, Lu Junyi, who was standing next to him, was immediately startled.

Originally, he wanted to stop Li Kui and tell him to stop talking nonsense.

But at this time, Zhao Ji smiled calmly, indicating that he didn't care at all about Li Kui's words just now:

"Tieniu, what you just said is absolutely right."

"My cavalry and shooting skills are not comparable to those of Yuanwai Lu and General Guan. Even those captains under my command such as Zhier are far inferior."

"Indeed, it's just as you said just now."

"If I rush out this time, I'm afraid my life will be in danger soon."

"But Tieniu, you have to think so. Why did those people gather here all at once this time?"

After Li Tieniu heard such a question, his two thick brows knitted together tightly.

After pondering for a long time, he finally said:

"Isn't it because this city is so strong that the Jin people can't attack it for a while, so they called in other helpers?"

Zhao Ji smiled bitterly:

"Of course not."

"Nine times out of ten, those people are here just for me."

"Did you know that there was Cao Cao during the Three Kingdoms period?"

Li Tieniu nodded as if he understood:

"Of course I understand, but he is a huge traitor."

Zhao Ji nodded slowly:

"At that time, there were many capable officials and generals who fought in hundreds of battles. They all knew that Cao Cao was a treacherous man, but why, nine out of ten, were they willing to obey him openly?"

"Tieniu, do you know why?"

Li Tieniu raised his big hand and scratched the back of his head with a puzzled expression:

"Is it because there are many generals under Cao Cao's command, and they are all very powerful, making those people afraid?"

"Is that why you listened?"

Zhao Ji slowly shook his head:

"It's more than that."

"The main reason is because Cao Cao holds the Emperor of Han in his hands."

"But those capable ministers and invincible generals who govern the world are all ministers of the Han Dynasty."

"So they must obey the orders of the Emperor of Han Dynasty."

"And what happened next?"

"The Emperor of Han was kidnapped by Cao Cao. Since then, Cao Cao has been using the name of Emperor of Han to order the civil servants and generals."

"And those civil servants and generals, although they are extremely unwilling to do so, have to obey those orders in many cases."

"The thieves and bandits from our Song Dynasty gathered here this time because they just wanted to capture me."

"As for his intentions after capturing him, I'm afraid it will be the same as that of Cao Cao."

"And the reason why I laid out such a plan this time was just to take advantage of the psychology of those people."

"Tieniu, don't try to persuade me again."

"Tonight, I will definitely leave the city with the people and you soldiers."

"And what lies in front of us is the twenty-mile escape route."

"As long as we can cross Yingchou Gorge, then the battle ahead will be considered won."

"If you can't get through..."

"Then all of us here will probably die."

"After all, compared to the enemy's hundreds of thousands of troops, we only have more than [-] available troops here."

"With such a huge disparity in military strength and without advantageous conditions such as location, it is almost impossible for us to win this battle."

Zhao Ji was still waiting to say more, but at this moment, a messenger suddenly ran over from the side:

"Reporting to the officials, General Guan and General Hua said that all the soldiers and horses in the city have been assembled."

"Right now, all the people and soldiers in the city are waiting for is an order from the officials to rush out of the city together!"

At this time, Zhao Ji looked at the shining stars hanging in the sky with a serious face.

While my heart was filled with mixed feelings, I was also sighing frequently:

It seems that in just the blink of an eye, the wheels of history are rolling here.

And the current battle is probably the most dangerous one since I traveled through time.

If I can win this battle, then what will be in front of me from now on will be smooth sailing.

What if this battle is accidentally lost?

So it's hard to say, the entire Song Dynasty will repeat the mistakes of history.

It would be a lie to say I'm not nervous.

But the current feeling of challenging the future really makes me excited.

Give me one more time to burn incense, and also give the soldiers, generals, and people in the city a little more time to prepare.

I want to review the current situation again to see if there is anything I missed.

Zhao Ji stood here, turned to the messenger and said:

"Pass my order, and after a stick of incense, everyone in the Daming Mansion will rush out of the city."

"The generals are in front, and the people are in the back."

"After breaking through the siege of Dajin's army and horses, all the people immediately turned around and headed north of Daming Mansion."

"And all the soldiers and horses are running quickly towards Tokyo City."

"And pass through Yingchou Gorge as quickly as possible."

While the messenger soldier took the order and left, Zhao Ji also took three sticks of incense from the general next to him and inserted them in a corner of the city wall.

Along with three wisps of green smoke, slowly floated into the air.

It also marked the beginning of the Daming Mansion breakout battle, which had slowly begun.

When the three sticks of incense were half burned, Zhao Ji took them down himself.

Then he led several generals behind him and hurriedly arrived at the gate of Daming Mansion.

And here, several soldiers presented Zhao Ji with bright yellow armor.

At this time, Zhao Ji asked to dress up like this, firstly, to suit his identity, and secondly, because he also wanted to make his logo more obvious.

In order to catch all the bait.

Be fully prepared for the next step of this plan.

When the three sticks of incense in Zhao Ji's hand were completely burned out, Zhao Ji suddenly got on the horse and pulled out his Longquan Sword from the side of his waist.

As the Damingfu city gate not far ahead rumbled open, Zhao Ji, protected by Lu Junyi on the left and Guan Sheng on the right, took the lead and rushed out.

Following closely behind were generals such as Li Kui, Chao Gai, and Hua Rong.

Zhao Ji's choice of time to break out was very clever.

I chose it in the second half of the night.

At this time, it was also the time when the military camp was exhausted.

In addition, Zhao Ji and others' breakout was extremely unexpected, which also confused the Jin army generals who were besieged around Daming Mansion. Hundreds of Song Dynasty soldiers rushed towards them without paying attention.
