Chapter 47: Battle Report

"Your Majesty, didn't we discuss this matter last year, I think we can adopt the strategy discussed last year, attack and win over at the same time, give them a hard time first, and then send someone to discuss how to live in harmony with them!" Sikong Chengxin stood up and said slowly.

"But these hateful guys, when our army goes, they run, and as soon as our army withdraws, they come again, how can we fight this shameless way of fighting!" An officer in the military attache queue said helplessly.

"It's definitely going to be beaten, but we have to think about the way to fight. I suggest that the generals who intend to lead the troops write down their own strategies for this expedition, and your Majesty will decide which general will go on the expedition, and what will you think? Cheng Xin said slowly.

Cheng Xin and Emperor Fuhuang Yang Chengfeng have fought together many times, and many of his ideas are very much in line with Emperor Fu's wishes. Sure enough, his idea was approved by Emperor Fu, so Emperor Fu decreed that within ten days, the general who intended to lead the army to the expedition wrote a battle strategy, and the court selected the most suitable person to lead the army.

"Old man, you're doing a good job! If you want military merit, you have to come up with a good strategy and make everyone's heads move, which is better than a few good guys scratching their heads. Seeing that the civil, military and civil officials were all gone, Emperor Fu looked at Cheng Xin, who had been specially left, and said with a smile.

Emperor Fu's words were right, on the day the decree was issued, the think tanks of many forces in Xijing gathered together to urgently negotiate for this expedition, and to find the best plan to collect this military achievement.

Ten days later, Emperor Fu synthesized the plans of all parties, and finally chose Yang Ming, the victorious king known as the "God of War", as expected, and asked him to lead 100,000 iron cavalry to give Liuyi a hard blow.

At the oath meeting, Yang Ming specially invited his thirteenth brother Yang Yun to the forefront of the army, because this time he was able to lead the troops smoothly, which had a lot to do with the strategy of this younger brother.

Battle flag hunting, roaring in the sky, walking neatly, looking at these, Yang Yun's heart fluctuated, in the previous world, Yang Yun had only seen such a scene at the military parade on TV. I didn't think that one day, I would really stand on the high platform and look at these hot-blooded men who were about to go on the expedition. At this time, his heart was boiling, and the dream of a general, which had been hidden in his heart, became clearer and clearer.

Yang Ming took his 100,000 iron horsemen and also set out with the expectations of the Dafu army and civilians. This walk also took away Yang Yun's concern, and for several days, Yang Yun "wrote" books in the house all day long, and almost didn't go out. He paid attention to the movements of the army every day and asked if there was any good news, which made Yanqin and Liu Yue start laughing at him, even if the army doesn't sleep, it won't be able to reach the battlefield!

The days passed quickly, and three months passed, and the Shadowless Guard Division to which Yang Yun belonged developed rapidly, accumulating a lot of financial resources for him. Keen on "writing" books, after writing "Journey to the West", he began to start with his favorite Chinese network in his previous life, and "moved" several of his favorite novels. "The Story of Cultivating Immortals in Rain and Ink" with the autumn wind and the slanting sun, and "The Continent of Divine Prayer" with a drop of tears in the rivers and lakes...... How can the people of this world resist the temptation of such a wonderful novel, and join the ranks of book grabbers.

A large amount of silver rolled like Yang Yun's pocket, but Yang Yun was not particularly excited, because he was always concerned about the battle ahead. After a long wait, there was finally a result, and on this day, a fast horse galloped into Xijing City, bringing good news ahead, which made the people of Dafu rejoice.

Shengwang Yang Ming went out to Liuyi this time, completely changing the previous way. In the past, every time the Liuyi was conquered, the generals of the Dafu army used the cavalry pursuit method to chase after the enemy to strike, but no matter how elite the cavalry was, it could not outrun the Liuyi man who grew up on horses, so the results of each battle were not obvious.

This time, the Liuyi people found that these Dafu people did not pursue themselves, but only marched slowly. However, when they came to a tribe, they took away all the old and young women and children left behind in the tribe, as well as all the property in the tribe, and burned all the remaining houses and tents in the tribe, leaving only a ruin.

At this moment, the Liuyi people were dumbfounded, their wives and children and parents were actually going to be taken away, they had always advertised themselves as the army of a great country before, and they didn't bother to do such a thing?

In desperation, the Liuyi people saw that the Dafu army brought many Liuyi people, and they couldn't take care of the end of the day, so they took advantage of the night to sneak attack the Dafu army in an attempt to snatch back their relatives. Who knew that Yang Ming, who commanded the Dafu army, had already prepared, and actually hid the army among the people, but instead attacked the Liuyi people. The Liuyi cavalry was killed, and the twenty or thirty thousand Liuyi people were killed, those who were caught, and more than half of the personnel were lost.

In this way, the Dafu army took the Liuyi people plus 30,000 or 40,000 prisoners, and marched to the country of Dafu. However, due to the slow pace of the march of the army with a large number of civilians, Liuyi gathered another 50,000 or 60,000 people and launched a direct attack on the Dafu army.

The armies of the two sides encountered more than 100 miles from the territory of Dafu, and the Dafu army left 50,000 men to manage the prisoners and civilians, leaving only 50,000 to fight against the Liuyi.

The advantage of the Liuyi army is that they are mobile and good at long-distance attacks, but frontal combat is their weakness. King Shengwang has led the army for many years, and is well versed in the way of arranging troops, and the soldiers he leads are all elites. After a big battle, the Dafu army suffered more than 8,000 casualties, but it left more than 20,000 corpses behind the Liuyi people and fled in embarrassment.

Since then, the Liuyi people can no longer attack decently, and can only watch their wives, children, fathers and elders being taken back to the hinterland of Dafu by the Dafu army.

As the fast horse passed back the good news ahead, people in the streets and alleys of Xijing City were discussing the battle, and some people even compiled him into a commentary. The victorious king who commanded this war was fiercely praised, and for a while, the title of "God of War" of the victorious king Yang Ming Dafu resounded throughout the north and south of Dafu.

The officials of the imperial court were not so relaxed, because there were still tens of thousands of displaced people who were coerced by the Dafu army and needed to be resettled. According to the plan that was made, they were to divide these people into family units and move them to various parts of Dafu and restrict them from leaving for a year. During this year, Dafu gave them land, and they could intermarry with the Dafu people, and after a year, they were completely free.

Although the policy was repeatedly told to the Liuyi people, they never believed it, kept making noise, and even took the opportunity to escape. For these thorns, the Dafu officials were not soft, a light whip, a few heavy heads, and finally packed up these rogues.

These Dafu officials sent the Liuyi people to various prefectures and counties, and privately demanded that the local grassroots officials be loose on the outside and tight on the inside. It is necessary not only to make them feel the kindness of the Dafu people, but also to prevent them from sabotaging or escaping.

In the short term, this effect is not bad, these wanderers rarely find a chance to escape, and most of them are slowly adapting to the stable life of Dafu, without having to chase water and grass all day to graze, and do not need to risk being killed to loot around.

There is also a good phenomenon that some Liuyi came to Dafu in order to find their relatives who were brought to the territory of Dafu. Of course, these people have no chance to leave, but the officials of Dafu have been kind to them and have tried to help them find their relatives.

As the proponent of this policy, Yang Yun was very concerned about the development of this matter, and visited the area where the Liuyi people were resettled many times to understand their current situation. However, such days did not last long. Because when he was almost fifteen years old, he was forced to leave his home and begin to complete the first task given to him by the court.
