Chapter 386: The head of the city anticipates the enemy's opportunity
Murong Nan looked at Liu Yu's eyes, and a sad look flashed on his face: "Moreover, that water has to be a big lake, but you can't stay too long, otherwise the cattle and sheep will eat up the grass sooner or later." Therefore, we have to move from season to season, spring, summer, autumn and winter on different pastures. No matter how powerful a tribe is, it will have to compete with other tribes for these pastures. Therefore, this kind of conquest and vendetta on the grassland has not stopped for a moment! ”
Liu Yuqi said: "In this way, you are just because food cannot be stored, so in order to make a living, you have to fight for pasture and water, is not this the case?" ”
Murong Nan said: "Liu Yu, we are human beings, not beasts, even if we are not as knowledgeable as you Han people, but we also know that you can't kill people casually, and you know that plundering is not good." No one can be strong forever, today you robbed others by strength, but you have a hatred, then you are weak, others are strong, you can do the same to you, such a vendetta is endless, even a powerful tribe like the Xiongnu has a day of decay, a steppe overlord with a brain, will never be a man without leaving any room. ”
Liu Yu smiled slightly: "So you want to take the opportunity to raise your clan into the Central Plains, just to avoid this terrible grassland, which will always fall into vendetta and face huge survival pressure?" ”
Murong Nan sighed: "With this consideration, we will always face endless vendettas and battles outside the Saiwai, and the Central Plains will not, even if Dayan is destroyed, we can still stay." Liu Yu, if one day in the future, you Eastern Jin Dynasty can really win the world, I hope you don't drive us away. ”
Liu Yu hooked the corners of his mouth: "My China has been hospitable since ancient times, and the Yongjia Rebellion is not because we stayed in the Central Plains, and the Hu people of all ethnic groups who have compiled the people will take revenge?" In the future, if we restore the Great Jin, as long as you Murong Xianbei are obedient and don't make trouble, I don't think at least I won't drive you to the Saiwai Grassland again. ”
Murong Nan laughed: "It seems that you can decide the general trend of the world, as if all people will die, Lord Liu, wake up, it's dawn." ”
Liu Yu also laughed: "This is not the topic you started." Okay, let's not talk about that, let's talk about the current war. The shouts you just asked about when farming were also thought of by me, and according to the art of war, it must be the power of drums and trumpets. ”
Murong Nan nodded: "There are also gongs and drums in the city, why do you have to use this method?" ”
Liu Yu smiled slightly: "The number of people and gongs and drums of the Qin army far exceed ours, I am afraid it is difficult to suppress their momentum just by playing the drums, and you have also seen the situation just now, the soldiers and people in the city are very nervous and afraid, otherwise there will be no conflict in the city today, in this case, if you don't want to mobilize their enthusiasm and morale, how can you roar against the enemy army?" ”
Murong Nan sighed: "Your inspiration is really wonderful, I saw the light in their eyes, and the morale is really high at this time." However, you said before that they fought in the city because they were afraid, and I can't understand it. ”
Liu Yu Zhengse said: "Because the movements of those people and sergeants are very stiff, so they will bump together, maybe they didn't find it themselves, and the sergeant and Zhiyan will quarrel when they collide, and it is also because of resentment and fear that the sergeant will draw his sword and face each other, and Zhiyanzhi is also emotionally out of control, so there will be conflicts." As for the people and sergeants who surrounded them, if it was in peacetime, such a confrontation would not have broken out. ”
Murong Nan nodded: "After all, the enemy is strong and I am weak, tens of thousands of Qin troops outside the city, even if there are less than 10,000 strong men in the city, it is normal for them to be afraid." Like that to Yanzhi, he was not a Shouchun person, but when the war was in chaos, he also left Qiang. ”
Liu Yu said with a smile: "What is needed to defend the city is to unite as one, if the people's hearts are scattered, fear is spreading, and the army and the people are resentful of each other, it will definitely not work." The Qin army came so quickly, it was Liang Cheng's elite troops, they would take advantage of this sharp spirit to attack, otherwise they would not be able to attack after a long time. ”
Murong Nanqi said: "They have a large army in the future, if it drags on for a long time, it should be more beneficial." If I were Liang Cheng, I would not have taken the initiative to attack when I saw the high morale in the city today. Since it can't be done unexpectedly, let's fight steadily, cavalry is conducive to field battles and not conducive to siege, this truth is understood by a small soldier. ”
Liu Yu shook his head: "Brother Murong, I bet with you that Liang Cheng will definitely attack the city tomorrow." ”
Murong Nan shook his head in disbelief: "I don't believe it, he is a general, and he will not violate basic military common sense." ”
Liu Yu breathed a long sigh of relief, looked at the Qin army camp outside the city, and said in a deep voice: "The Qin army went south this time, our army retreated all the way without a fight, and abandoned the entire Huaibei. This morale was sustained entirely by victory and captivity. ”
"Liang Cheng is a Di person, is Fu Jian's favorite general, this time the light soldiers are in a hurry, indicating that they have internal problems, the usual Qin army battles, are all with foreign soldiers and horses as the pioneer, such as the last time with Ju Nan and Peng Chao's Xiongnu headquarters people, and the Han people to fight the vanguard, or when fighting Xiangyang, with your lord's Xianbei people as the pioneer, and the Di army is used as the rear supervision team, and it is easy not to enter the battle."
Murong Nan nodded thoughtfully: "That's really the case, after all, the number of Di people is insufficient, if there are too many losses, then there will be problems in the world of the Qin State, but, according to what you say, Liang Cheng came with the elite of the Di clan in advance, what did he do?" ”
Liu Yu's eyes flashed coldly: "Because they need victory, they need a big victory, to calm the morale of the army, let the troops of all ethnic groups who follow the south see hope, and stimulate their will to fight, Shouchun is the first big city they encounter that will not give up, so they must take it, otherwise, if the other ethnic groups behind them see that they can't conquer even a single Shouchun, it will only change the morale of the army and respond more passively." ”
Murong Nan sighed: "So, Liang Cheng will attack Shouchun regardless of the casualties of the Di army?" Then why didn't he attack the city when he first came? We didn't even apply mud back then. ”
Liu Yu smiled and waved his hand: "Liang Cheng's cavalry can't fly, and there are no siege equipment, how can they attack?" However, today's battle cry of the whole army is to test our strength in defending the city, especially to see our morale, now he knows that our army has high morale and will not intimidate them, that is not said, tomorrow will grit his teeth and attack, as long as he withstands this wave, Shouchun will defend half of it! ”
Murong Nan's eyes sparkled: "What can I do?" ”
Liu Yu smiled and put his hand on his shoulder: "Listen to my orders, maybe your brothers can come in handy tomorrow!" ”
