Chapter 701: Attacking the Heart
"Don't pick it up, don't look at it." , Bursts of cheers sounded in the Xia army camp, but many Xia army soldiers had already secretly stuffed pieces of paper into their arms.
This is the purpose of Li Chengye! Through the method of 'casting a net in the air', the shocking changes in Zhongxing Mansion were transmitted to the Xia Army barracks. So that more low-level soldiers know that their capital has been destroyed, and the emperor is gone.
In the absence of allegiance, their military spirit will inevitably disappear.
It was also the period of cold weapons, and the main factor affecting the victory or defeat of the war, in addition to equipment and the quality of the army, was the morale of the army.
Usually, when two armies face each other, the best way to break the morale of the army is to kill the opposing commander and cut off the commander's flag. In the case of inconvenient communications, the command of the army cannot be passed on by word of mouth. Therefore, the handsome flag has become the spiritual pillar of an army. Once the pillar falls, the rout of the army is inevitable.
At present, Li Chengye asked people to say in the letter, because the lord of Xia is mediocre and unreasonable, and he listens to traitors and misleads the country. Therefore, the heavens sent down heavenly punishments, which made the imperial relatives and court officials in the capital lose their humanity and become beasts that drink the blood of Mao Ru.
Therefore, Dayuan advised the Xia army on the opposite side not to obsessively embark on the road of destruction for the mediocre lord.
Of course, if they surrender to the Yuan army, the Yuan army will let go of their previous grievances and spare their lives. More crucially, they were also allowed to immigrate to the Yuan Kingdom and were given land.
In particular, the last sentence of 'giving land' can be said to be in the hands of most soldiers.
Dayuan's Gansu Province has been established for four years, and many low-level soldiers already know what is going on there.
Those who could not afford to eat in the past will have land and land when they go there, and they will be able to marry and have children.
They can't even imagine this life.
If they still didn't believe it in the past, but with this entry into the territory of Ganzhou, seeing is believing, they have to believe it.
Moreover, many of the soldiers in the Gansu army that attacked the Xia State turned out to be Xia people.
Their earth-shaking changes all prove that the life of the Yuan Kingdom is indeed a hundred times better than that of the Xia Kingdom. For those of them who have no land and only a bad life, it is the easiest way to survive.
Besides, Dayuan's threshold for Xia immigrants is not low! To be precise, the threshold for immigration to any country is not low. Gansu Province used to be the territory of the Xia Kingdom, and most of the people living there were Xia people. Even if they emigrate, there is not much difference.
Before this, although they had the idea of immigration, because they had joined the army of Xia Guo and separated from the identity of ordinary people, they were afraid that the immigrant Yuan would be rejected or even killed by the other party.
So now, with the guarantee of the Great Yuan Liang Palace, they don't have much to worry about.
In addition, the lords of the country are dead, and the capital is in chaos. It is estimated that the Xia Kingdom is also over, rather than following the Mongolian masters who don't treat them as people, it is better to surrender to the Great Yuan, and farming is also a way to live.
Therefore, there is no need to think too much about the relevant interest trade-offs.
Jebe summoned all the Monxia generals to discuss countermeasures. Wei Mingling Gong looked at the hill-like letterhead in the middle of the tent, and his heart was already unwavering. If it was said that before the matter was announced, he would still have a headache because of it. Then after the matter has been announced, he has no worries.
Because the low-level soldiers have found a way to live. If anyone dares to stand in the way of their survival, it will only cause public anger. Your death and my death are the only result.
Jebel is not a fool and is clearly aware of this. After being silent for a while, the generals present felt the pressure like a mountain. Only then did he threaten to say that tonight's garrison task would be handed over to the new annexed army. As for Xia Jun, after guarding for so many days, it's time to rest.
Who still can't understand such perfunctory words. Those generals of the Xia Army didn't speak with a calm face, and they didn't bother to look at the famous Linggong. Seeing this, Wei Ming Linggong had to stand up and admit to Jebel that he listened to the other party's arrangement.
On the night of the failure, the newly withdrawn Yuan army observed a major military movement at the deployment points along the Yellow River. Obviously, the Mongolian army didn't trust the Xia people stationed there, so they replaced them with their own people.
Although the new annex army is not its own people, it can only be regarded as cannon fodder for the Mongols. But compared to the Xia people, who were hostile to them, the Jin army that was more afraid of them was more trustworthy.
However, what the Mongol army did not expect was that the Yuan army did not cross the river after taking the battle of attacking the heart. For three days in a row, the officers and men of the new attached army, who were still nervous, couldn't help but relax.
But in the summer army camp! Out of distrust of the Mongol army, they were surrounded between the camp of the Mongol army and the newly annexed army. Moreover, the camp of the Chinese army is still under the nose of the Mongolian army. Such a grandiose threat made the soldiers in the Xia army's camp even more resentful of the Mongolian army.
At this moment, in the camp tent, Wei Mingling Gong lit the incense candles produced by the Yuan Kingdom, and looked at the most popular rubbings of the Yuan Kingdom, "Journey to the West". Because the incense candle is a medicine candle with a mosquito repellent effect, there are no mosquitoes in the tent. The whirring Yuanguo automatic fan was constantly rotating, bringing up gusts of fresh air.
This is the gear fan of the Yuan Kingdom, and it has a hinge in it. After shaking your hand for a while, you can automatically turn it for a while. Although it is still a little inconvenient, it is more windy than a fan.
This thing has not been on the market for a long time in Dayuan, and there are not many of them, so it is not cheap to sell. Wei Mingling Gong was able to get this thing, and it was also given to him by the people below. If there is ice, the wind is cooler.
It's just that when you go out to lead the army, it's naturally impossible to have ice cubes.
I was watching the plot of 'Tang Seng subduing the white dragon horse', when there was a sudden bang outside, and the ground suddenly exploded, as if something had exploded. Immediately shouts rang out, and the army outside was alarmed.
The specific name Ling Gong just raised his head, and then turned his gaze back. Anyway, he is now relieved of his military power, and there are Mongols watching outside. No matter what happened, he couldn't do it.
"Dig ---", a worm chirped, and the famous Linggong's interest in reading was disturbed again. Then the curtain of the door was lifted from the outside, and two people walked in.
"General, I'm here to get you out." As soon as the visitor saw the famous Linggong, he immediately knelt down and said.
"The old man is not in danger of life!" , Wei Ming Linggong had already guessed the purpose of the arrival, but he still pretended not to understand.
"General, the lord of the country is gone, and the capital is in chaos. You just don't care about yourself, you also think about the whole army, right? They all went out with the general, can you bear to see them become cannon fodder for the Mongols? ”。
