Lingwu County has six tun, three townships and one town, now the county governance collapses, Dingkou register is lost, the population is not much, in addition to the descendants of the Yong people who were reclaimed in the year, there was also a branch of the Helian clan. The surname Helian is derived from the two surnames of Bogulu and Lieshiduo. Together with the Yan surname of the Yong people, as well as several other Yong surnames, they became the eight surnames of Lingwu, but with the reign of Chen Guo, five of these main surnames of the Yong people disappeared, and they were added with the surname Huatai, who did not know what race they were in, and were collectively known as the four surnames of Lingwu.

Lingwu changed hands, and they immediately sent important figures of the clan to the original county capital, waiting early in the morning to meet the generals of the Eastern Xia side, so as to avoid the changing Great King Banner in the war from affecting them, swallowing them in, and only spitting out a few pieces of white bones.

Diao, who had no time to pay attention to them, nor did he despise them, but let them show them a room to entertain them, and make his own military deliberations in order.

The generals have arrived.

The base camp has made a relatively detailed division of their operations, but some adjustments have to be made in accordance with the actual situation on the battlefield. Diao sat on the left side, and the counselors representing the base camp unfurled a large wall chart on the right side opposite him, and selected a fluent representative to compare the current situation with what was expected and what adjustments were made. Diao's bird also listened carefully.

In the course of the war, cumbersome place names, army formations, and combat missions were involved.

The generals were either busy writing down their own records, or they brought their own records of the counselors, most of which were their own understanding of the battle, and after a while, the headquarters would also issue them standard form documents, which they compared according to their own understanding.

There was only one person in the hall of the entire county government who was explaining in a low tone, and everyone was recording in a rustle.

Diao glanced at it, pleased with the atmosphere. He stayed in the Central Plains Imperial Court, and was extremely dissatisfied with the process of doing things for many parties, and every time he was in his base camp, his military office seemed to be very efficient, and he was also satisfied with the counselor who explained the battle, and he was also satisfied with the planning of the entire war in the base camp, and he also took out a pen and paper, put the written paper on one side and pressed it with a paperweight, put the blank one in front of him, and sketched something from time to time.

When it was almost noon, the battle was basically completed, and the counselor put the Lingwu town guard to the end, announced a series of establishments, a list of generals, and counted the troops...... Everyone nodded frequently, and they also found out that in the final announced list, several generals were not present.

The counselor finished his lecture and was about to put away his whip and turn down.

But Dia Bird found that there was one name missing, and another name was added, so he couldn't wait to ask, "What about Lonely?" Why is there no loneliness? ”

Everyone laughed.

The counselor stood where he was, turned around, but did not smile, hesitated for a moment, and announced: "There is no name of the king in the battle of the base camp, you should stay in the rear." Lingwu was commanded by General Zhao Guo. ”

Because of his serious expression, the generals felt that they were not interfering as they thought, so they stopped laughing, slowly quieted down, and finally focused their eyes on Dia Bird.

Dia Bird smiled: "Plus." Lonely to the town of Lingwu. ”

The counselor refused, bowed to Dia Bird, and said loudly: "All the soldiers and counselors of the base camp have unanimously decided that the base camp and General Zhao Guo will replace the king to guard the Lingwu. If you are there, then Lingwu is there, and if you die, Lingwu is still there. ”

He turned his face, faced the generals, and said solemnly: "I think the generals must also have such an opinion, I don't know, right?" ”

Only then did the generals realize why there was no name for Dia Bird.

It seems that the base camp's assessment of Lingwu is extremely sinister, so they refused to allow the king to stay in Lingwu, and they immediately exchanged heads and talked about it.

Dia Niao raised his arm unhappily, waved his sleeve, waved the back of his hand out, and then restrained his unhappiness, and said with a smile: "You overestimate the enemy and underestimate our soldiers in Eastern Xia. Lone needs to stay in Lingwu, not only to stay in Lingwu, but also to fight to the death with Tuoba Weiwei here. ”

He demanded, "Don't be busy fighting against Lonely. When Gu announces the battle method advocated by Gu Gu, it is not too late for you to make a decision. ”

Coughing slightly, he turned to the generals, and motioned for the counselor to find a place to sit down, and then asked with a dark face, "Which of you is scolding your mother in your heart?" ”

The generals hurriedly looked at each other, wondering who scolded their mother.

Immediately they were stunned, the king asked not who scolded his mother, but who scolded his mother in his heart, and who scolded his mother in his heart, how did he know?

In an instant, their spirits were mobilized, and the sleepiness worn out by the boring cloth war was gone.

Dia Bird smiled, "Don't pretend. Absolutely. And not a few. Don't think Lone doesn't know. The war is about to start, and if there are any changes in the battle, just send a piece of military paper to you, but you have to come overnight, and the farthest place will come early in the morning, right? Oh. I was irritable in my heart, and I definitely said in my heart, I fell asleep when I heard how to set up the war, and I didn't remember anything to adjust, and I had to hurry back in a hurry, and I wouldn't let me fight the war well. ”

The crowd laughed.

Some people probably have a weak heart, and they even eat and laugh, and say, "No." Certainly no one. “

Dia Bird said, "It's good if you don't have it." The war is to lay down. Most of you are experienced in many battles, and you have been training intensively several times, and you feel relieved. The real point is not to let you review your combat deployment. Mind you, it's all about now. Listen. How important is it, important enough to reduce the casualties of two-thirds of my Dongxia soldiers, so that you can still be scared, and you can sleep peacefully after you go back. ”

The crowd opened their mouths wide.

Dia Bird asked the first question: "In the operational deployment of the base camp, where to hit first and then where?" ”

Everyone replied, "That's still a question." Of course, it is eaten in pieces, first cut in from the side, concentrate the superior forces to eat, and after eating, then fight from the side. ”

Dia Bird smiled and asked a second question: "How long are you going to fight?" ”

The crowd was dizzy.

The representative of the base camp, the counselor who had just explained the battle, got up and said on behalf of everyone: "We have estimated that it will only take a month to fight. ”

Dia Bird laughed, "It's too long. ”

He stopped smiling, and asked again: "Do you think that if you encircle and annihilate 300,000 people, how many casualties will I have in Dongxia?" ”

Everyone thought for a while, Niu Liujin got up and said, "It's less than 50,000." ”

Dia Bird's face became serious, he stood up suddenly, walked to the empty space in front of the crowd, turned around, and asked softly, "Fight for a month?" 50,000 casualties? ”

He slapped his hands, became extremely agitated, and yelled, "A month? Coupled with the two round-trip trips, my farmland in Dongxia was full of grass, and in a month, all my livestock in Dongxia were reduced to skeletons. You're going to fight for a month? You guys just compare with Tuoba Black Cloud who will die first. ”

The crowd was wooden.

Niu Liujin cautiously asked: "How long will it take, and will you take turns to fight tomorrow and night?" ”

Diao snorted coldly.

He only said lightly: "Lonely can't stand it for a month, the long pain, the loneliness can't stand it, and Dongxia can't stand it, the people are very bitter." ”

He added: "Fifty thousand casualties." We collected the whole country in Dongxia, but we only collected more than 500,000 ding, and the casualties were one-tenth, who had no parents, who had no wives and children. How much money does the treasury have, and how to get a pension? ”

Niu Liujin almost couldn't hold back, and almost blurted out: "Chen Guo is 300,000, 50,000 are you distressed?" ”

Dia Bird pointed to Niu Liujin and said, "You have no tricks." Right? Then sit down and listen to Lone's arrangement for you, that's why Lone has to call you to come. One or two stuffy heads fighting. Lonely will enlighten you. ”

Everyone fell to the ground and was speechless.

Dia Bird said, "Ah Xiao." There are some Tuoba generals who have surrendered to you, right? ”

Diaxiao got up and said in a muffled voice, "That's right. Actually, there are not many people. ”

He was not like others who were taboo, and said angrily: "You mobilized it at the beginning." Everyone has a small appetite, and you will definitely eat 300,000 people. Now, you are suspected of fighting for a long time, and you are suspected of suffering heavy casualties. What are you going to do with us? Attacking in turns? Won't you take turns to attack you? ”

Dia Bird sneered and said, "So." Use your brain. ”

He asked unashamedly: "Who is wiser than Lone and Tuoba?" ”

Everyone didn't expect it, and they responded in unison and angrily: "King." ”

Diaoi asked rhetorically, "Did you speak against your will?" Why do you all look disgusted? He then asked, "Who is wiser than Lonely and Tuobaweiwei?" ”

The crowd was helpless and shouted in unison: "Great King." ”

The bird did not let them go, and asked, "Who?" “

The crowd was afraid that he would not give up, and roared one after another: "Great King." ”

Dia Bird smiled and said, "Sincerely." Then you won't tell Battle's Battle? ”

Everyone's eyes suddenly changed, weird, weird.

Dia Bird asked again: "Ask again, are you living well in Dongxia?" Are there any generals who are older than you who oppress you and rob your concubines? ”

The generals laughed.

Dia Niao said again: "Is Dongxia better or worse than Chen Guo? This standard can't all be said by Lone, just like Lone just asked you who is wise between Lone and Tuoba Weiwei? Look at the reluctance on your face. Summarize it yourself, think about it, and tell Chen Guo's soldiers. Lone remembers that a fierce general once told Lone, who to fight is not a war? You say, is this also the voice of the people of Chen Guo and the soldiers of Chen Guo? ”

The generals will be enlightened.

Dia Niao said again: "Ah Xiao, your generals, use them well, they are all old Tuoba people, sing a song in front of the position, let them think about their hometown, and think about whether they should die on the chaotic battlefield like this?" Right. Waste should also be put to good use. How can it be raised in vain. What's more, it may not be all waste, maybe some people still have talent and popularity, and they will make meritorious contributions. ”

Diaxiao said in a sullen voice, "Got it." Elder brother. I'll arrange it when I get back. ”

Dia Niao looked at the contemplative generals, looking a little intoxicated, and said: "Lone also wants to prompt, why hasn't there been a large-scale surrender of Chen State?" ”

And they all looked up sharply, their eyes wide.

Dia Bird found Wang Zhen Evil and asked, "Three Young." You say. ”

Wang Zhenwei stood up in the laughter of everyone, and thought for a while: "The food has not been broken. Not hungry yet. ”

Another general stood up and replied, "I haven't told them that we are good in Dongxia, our king is good, and we are worthy of their loyalty." ”

Diao ordered a few more, and there was really no reason. He himself narrowed his eyes and said murderously: "Chen Guo is too big. They didn't think about the defeat of the Chen Congress. They didn't see the bravery of our Dongxia Erlang. They didn't hurt, they didn't shed tears. You haven't played a role yet. When you fight, killing is secondary, annihilation is not the main thing, what is the main thing, play with prestige. Shock them. ”

He turned his head to find the direction of the base camp and asked lightly, "There are three elites defending Lingwu, right?" Lone remembered that Qinghuatan could cut off the enemy's retreat, and Wu Ban reported it, right? Lone used three elites to play the first majestic game and eat him 50,000 people. Go. Chuan Gu's order told him that all the captured prisoners, those who voluntarily stayed were given to stay, those who were unwilling to stay, those who had fathers and brothers in the enemy camp, and those who were concerned, were all put back, and the war was only fought until dark, and after dark, the troops were withdrawn from Qinghuatan, and the remnants of the defeated soldiers were returned to propagandize for us. ”

After thinking for a while, he added: "A female painter once told me that when people are depicted in the beautiful life of men and women weaving, the mob will also be infected and put down their knives and guns. ”

He choked up a little when he said this, which reminded him of a person who had already drifted away with the wind.

He demanded: "There is no shortage of painters in the army, and there are color prints, so why not publish some color pictures of family harmony, men ploughing and weaving, male shepherds and women, children playing under the eaves, and herds of cattle and sheep rolling around, and throw them out with catapults?" What good do we do if we kill 300,000 people? The bone-buried loess will also dig a huge pit. We are the army of kings, and we are not fighting to make people die, but to let people live, let the Dongxia people live, and let the enemy become the Dongxia people to live. This is the will of Lone. It should also be your will. This is justice. There is justice that is different from 'to whom to fight is not to fight'. In our Dongxia, the life of Goolan is not so terrible, and it will be established at the end of the period, you go back to review and review, and see how the slaves in Goolan have become commoners in Dongxia. Are there any generals in the army, let them show up and tell those prisoners that he is a living example, from a slave to a small general, maybe in the future to a general. ”

Finally, he concluded: "According to the data, Lone has estimated the enemy's food consumption, but it is only two or three days, plus the war attrition, it may be a few more days, no matter how Lone calculates, at most six or seven days, there will be a shortage of food, they will rob each other, they will kill horses to eat, they will kill people to eat, why are they so stubborn?" Therefore, Lonely's expectation of war is seven days, and if seven days is not the end of the war, it is incompetence and incompetence, and we must work together to endure hardships for the people and apologize for the world. The expected casualties were less than 20,000. is insufficient. It's not just 20,000, it can only be less, and the more less, the better. Even if Tuoba Weiwei can come up in time, we only need to block them for one or two days, the situation of the 300,000 army inside is erosive, and it doesn't make any sense for him to attack Lingwu, but he is sending them to death. ”

He handed the manuscript in his hand to others so that he could copy it or publish it for distribution, and he smiled and made a gesture for everyone to leave, and walked out lightly.
