Chapter 476 Soldiers are not tired of deceit
If nothing was done, there might still be nothing to do without sleeping all night, but the current situation is that the Western Xia defenders have not slept for a day and a night, and they are all fighting.
To be honest, these Western Xia defenders have not experienced any decent battles at all, they are the defenders of the capital, and they have not experienced perennial battles like the border army at all, so from the beginning, they were in a disadvantaged position.
So at this time, in the face of the menacing Mongol army, some soldiers had no way to fight at all, they were too tired.
The situation of the war is directly one-sided.
"Kill me, people!" Li Gu stood on top of the city wall and shouted loudly.
But there are not many people who respond to him, there is no way, they also want to defend their capital, but their own strength does not allow it.
Seeing such a situation in front of him, Li Gu was also anxious, and hurriedly rushed over to pull up a soldier who was sitting on the ground, and roared loudly: "You get up for me, the enemy is coming, you are still sitting here, don't you want to live?" ”
The soldier smiled bitterly and said, "Your Majesty, it's not that the grass people don't want to stand up, I'm too tired to move." ”
When Li Gu heard what the soldier said, he said angrily: "Hurry up, believe it or not, I will kill you now?" ”
"Even if you kill me, I won't be able to get up." The soldier really had no strength at this time, so he simply said indifferently.
Li Gu was angry, seeing the appearance of these soldiers on the city wall, he was also very helpless, after such a non-stop attack, how could people stand it at this time.
"Your Majesty, I'm afraid it's useless to kill them at this time." University Scholar Kende said with a wry smile at this time.
Li Gu took a deep breath, he also understood this truth now, but in this situation, what could he do? Do you just give up and let the Mongols attack? It's better to surrender directly, which will save a lot of trouble.
But if that's the case, how can he be willing, if he surrenders, maybe ordinary people will be fine, those who are officials can continue to be officials, and those who are soldiers can continue to be soldiers, but what about themselves? It's impossible for an emperor to continue to be an emperor, right?
In such a situation, he has only been the emperor for a day, wouldn't he become the king of the dead country, that is really a joke, he is so desperate, so hard, in order to be the emperor? Now that he has finally become this emperor, how can he be willing to let him give it up to others like this.
"No way, even if he dies, he won't let go!" Li Gu gritted his teeth and thought.
"Citizens, stand up, take up the weapons in your hands, and dare to go away from the invaders." Li Gu said in a loud voice.
"Maybe you don't know about the brutality of the Mongols, right?" Li Gu actually didn't know how the Mongols treated those who surrendered, but since they surrendered, then their own lives were in the hands of others, and there would be no good results.
The soldiers looked at each other and did not respond to what Li Gu said.
"You may be thinking that even if you die at this time, you don't want to stand up again, you are so tired!" Li Gu went on to say that there is no pain to empathize with, and all persuasion must be considered from the other party's point of view, only in this way can it resonate and be recognized by the other party.
Although Li Gu became emperor on the first day, he has to say that he is a natural king, and he is still very talented in inspiring people's hearts.
That's right, Li Gu's words spoke the hearts of most of the soldiers at this time.
"But have you ever thought that you have fallen and surrendered like this, are you alone?" Li Gu asked rhetorically.
He approached a soldier and asked, "Do you have a wife?" ”
The soldier was nearly thirty years old, and when he heard what Li Gu said, he nodded and said, "Yes...... Pregnant! ”
"Do you have children?" Li Gu then asked.
"Yes, the child is already ten years old!" The soldier didn't know what Li Gu meant by asking like this, and replied truthfully at this time.
"Then you won't think about it for them? If you surrender, even if the Mongols don't kill you, then your wife will become their plaything, and your children will become their slaves. Li Gu shouted loudly.
Yes, maybe a person can give up on himself, but when he has a child and a wife, he has a responsibility, and he lives for the heavy responsibility on his shoulders.
Hearing what Li Gu said, this person's eyes turned red.
Seeing that his persuasion had had taken effect, Li Gu couldn't help but roar loudly: "Now tell me, what are you going to do in the face of the Mongol attack?" ”
The soldier couldn't help but shout loudly: "Kill, kill all these sons of bitches!" ”
"Pick up your weapons and give them a wreak to the invaders!" Li Gu ordered loudly.
I have to say that Li Gu's brainwashing technique is still very effective, at least the current Western Xia soldiers were encouraged by him, and they began to pick up the weapons in their hands and launched the most fierce counterattack against the Mongol attack.
At the beginning, he had actually discovered that the Tangut people had become the end of the crossbow, and the defeat had become a matter of time, but he didn't expect that now they would burst out again with combat effectiveness.
"It's just a trapped beast!" Hearing Zamuhe's report, Temujin said indifferently.
Zamuhe also understands this truth, but this war, to be honest, is also a morale, the so-called "husband war, courage also." One blow, then decline, three and exhaustion". Zamuhe was actually a little worried in his heart, they were alone in the depths, if they couldn't capture Xingqing Mansion for a long time, would it have any impact on the morale of the army.
Moreover, now there are still 100,000 troops on the eastern front of the Western Xia Kingdom, if Xingqing Mansion cannot be broken before the arrival of these 100,000 troops on the eastern front, then it is estimated that the last chance to destroy Xingqing Mansion will be lost.
Temujin naturally thought of this, and he said to his old partner with a smile: "Don't worry, the siege on three sides is just an appetizer. “。
When Zamuhe heard what Temujin said, his heart moved, and he said to Temujin: "What does the Great Khan mean? ”
"That's right, we have been besieging three sides all along, and the south side of the Xixia people has already relaxed their vigilance." Temujin said lightly.
