Section 87 Chinese Generals

Gaonu City is a place of defense for all dynasties.

The height of the city is three zhang and six feet, the base is five zhang wide, the top is three zhang wide, the terrain is high in the east and low in the west, the northeast corner protrudes outward, the west side is by the river, in the north, there is an earth Great Wall outside the city. However, Bo Dalu did not have much experience in defending the city, in the face of the Chen army all over the sky, he fought a few battles around the city, lost the moat and the Great Wall of Earth, and lost it, he did not think about retaking it again, and resisted the enemy by the river, but shrunk the army into the north and south cities.

Chen Guo took the lead in attacking the big and small west gates, and they all went up to the city tower and were driven back.

It is precisely because the enemy's castle tower has been boarded that Bo Dalu is very annoyed, and what is especially annoying is that at this juncture, the vassals of Dongxia are still calculating with him who takes advantage and who suffers...... The enemy is powerful, only by keeping the elite soldiers of the lineage, can it last, now, he must keep the elite soldiers in his hands as a new force, not to mention him, and any one of them will be arranged in the same way, is there anything unreasonable about this?

If it weren't for Da Xia Lu, he wouldn't let it, then he wouldn't have let it, he really wanted to kill three or five townspeople.

The laws of Daxia do not allow the loss of human life, even during the war, even if the vassals are guilty, they need to be handed over to the vassal for punishment, not to mention that they don't break the law if they make a fuss, which makes them feel that this is good in Eastern Xia, and they really let the enemy in because they are in a dispute, and they will not ...... As soon as they heard that the enemy's castle towers had been built, the feudal divisions who had gathered in the theory of the north tower of the town dispersed in a hurry, and according to the division, they fulfilled their functions.

The enemy at the Great and Small West Gates was repulsed, followed by the North Gate.

Chen Guo began to launch a more fierce offensive against the north gate, and got on the throwing train, and a large area of fire smoke rose up.

Then, Chen Guo began to attack the east gate, and gradually it was already a siege of three queyi.

Bo Dalu was unmoved.

He patrolled the city, knowing that this was just the beginning, and he still had the heart to drink tea slowly in the north building of the town, temporarily cramming Buddha's feet, looking for some pictures and texts to study the city.

Back then, Shouyuyang was a ruined city, and there was a shortage of food, so I had to fight back.

Now the city of Gaonu is high and deep, there is no shortage of food, a cellar and a cellar of the warehouse, the soldiers are excellent, the people are concentric, just shrink with peace of mind, and it is a big deal to fight in the street when you enter the city. He took the appearance of being light and light, and didn't care about anything, and increased his confidence to his subordinates, but the three city gates were all in an emergency, and the elite soldiers under him were gradually distributed.

In the war of hundreds of thousands of people, the camp was stationed and cut off, and it was impossible to contact the base camp, but he thought that the base camp should be able to contact Wang Ben, who was active in the Central Plains, thought for a while, and replied: "Didn't Wang Jishen go to Taiyuan?" He naturally knows whether he should ask for reinforcements or not, and in my opinion, he has a mission and will mobilize the imperial army, but he will not necessarily come to our aid, but will let the imperial court increase its troops to the county. ”

The last time he had fought a fake battle was still fresh in his memory, and afterwards, Diao warned him that he should not only lead three or five thousand iron horsemen to gallop, but think more of himself as the commander of the first army.

He thought about it from the perspective of the big picture.

This speculation does not come from the base camp, but from his own analysis, is the king outside the battle circle, sitting and watching the enemy besiege the city?

The king must have increased his troops behind enemy lines, and let the enemy attack the city, and he must have the purpose of allowing the enemy to attack the city.

From time to time, he would think of the battle of Yuyang, Yuyang's battle once and for all, and solved Bayi Wusun, and now maybe the king's intention is to "gather and annihilate" the enemy army...... Later, although the base camp gave him an order, but because of secrecy, he did not fully explain the plan, even so, the word "Ju Annihilation" flashed many times in his mind, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was possible, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that the results of the first battle of Gao Nu would be greater.

After many years of fighting, he has his own tacit understanding with Dia Bird.

After the counselors urged him repeatedly, he said, "Then you can send someone to the south to see if you can contact Wang Jishen, maybe he knows what the base camp wants us to do." After saying this, he continued to learn how to make tea and flipped through his books, texts and picture books.

The counselor had already glanced at the letters in his hand and stacked a few letters, knowing that they were written to him by the king, and there were faint words "general cultivation" on them.

It was only because of these pieces of paper that the counselor did not fight-for-tat, and asked him: "You are here to learn to drink tea and read picture books, do you know?" "Instead, I tried to contact Wang Ben in the Central Plains, and when he needed help, he could get him to negotiate and ask the imperial court.

It's not easy to contact Wang Ben, but it's not too difficult, if you rush through the blockade of Chen Guo, you can be picked up by the imperial court, if you want to help directly, it's easier, and contacting Wang Ben, the road is much farther.

Wang Ben went to Taiyuan once, and then went to Changyue, which even Zhang Huaiyu didn't know.

Several soldiers who went to see Wang Ben walked halfway to Taiyuan, only to know that he Wang Ben had gone around in a circle and was already in the capital for Changyue, so he turned around and went back to Changyue.

Zhang Huaiyu is also waiting for the imperial court to order.

In addition to Gaonu, he recovered almost all the land in Shangjun, and he could directly use Shangjun as a springboard to attack Chenzhou, but because of the beginning of the Gaonu War, the imperial court asked him to stand still and wait for the opportunity to support Dongxia, so he waited here...... Waiting here, he was extremely anxious in his heart.

He has also always been very different in the Jingkang military department.

He was born recklessly, and his military management methods were cruel, but he was able to clean himself up, and he did not have the nouveau riche mentality of a reckless hero, and his daughter-in-law was taken away by the Dongxia Diao, but he used the advantages of Dia Bird more than once to admonish his son. A year ago, his son was under his shadow and was recruited as a councillor to buy a house in Changyue, and he opened his mouth to ask him for money. He said, "You have been protected by me, and you have received your money, and you will not worry about it for the rest of your life, so why should you work again?" To pay for the father's property, it is not unacceptable, but I am afraid of luxury. Er is born Vino, Ah Wan doesn't love, don't learn from others to squander. ”

You have been sealed by me, you don't have to worry about eating and drinking all your life, and you still come to bother you Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu has no money, the money is used to govern the army, and I won't give it to you, I'm afraid that you will spend money indiscriminately. You are cowardly by nature, and your fiancée doesn't love you, do you still want to learn from others to squander? It's over for a lifetime.

With such a letter, can you imagine how his son felt after receiving it?

On the winter solstice of the previous year, he went to Beijing, and the emperor asked him and Tao Kan about the military affairs, comparing them with Dongxia.

Taukan answered three wins, he answered three defeats. He replied in public that the soldiers of Eastern Xia spontaneously restrained them, and the ministers handed over the military law, which was not enough; The Eastern Xia army was governed by righteousness first, and the soldiers of the ministers relied on rewards and punishments, which was not as good as that; The Eastern Xia soldiers Chongzhi grammar, the soldiers of the ministers sought to be strong in the hard-working township, which was not as good as that.

In front of the ministers of civil and military affairs, the emperor's face was dark, and he had to play a round for him, saying that he had lost to Diao on the battlefield and was too humble.

Rival political opponents have attacked him on more than one occasion, and he is a remnant of the Legalists.

Those gate valves all wanted him to give up his position and give up the Dengzhou trade route, and attacked him more than once.

He was also staggering in the position of the Dengzhou town soldier.

Although the emperor did not replace him, seeing that the rewards and favors he had received in recent years were not as good as before, he also put him in the position after the generals.

Because he saved Qin Li's life, Qin Li was more courteous.

But what is surprising is that he refused to get too close, before his son was recruited as a councilor, Qin Li summoned him to the mansion, but he refused on his behalf.

This large-scale Northern Expedition, from Jingkang's domestic point of view, the western front fought hard, the middle line advanced steadily, but he was the first to win the record, at the beginning, he recovered Shangjun.

Others think that he is lucky, the Eastern Front is easy to fight, and with the strong reinforcement of Dongxia, he just wants to compete on the battlefield, and his heart is naturally impatient.

However, Dongxia defeated Gaonu, brewed a big war, and attacked Chenzhou, he had no part in supporting Dongxia, but Dongxia has not opened his mouth so far.

He waited in a hurry.

The soldiers who had just been sent away to find Wang Ben, and when Dongxia's report arrived to him, he knew that Lingwu had changed hands.

What does it mean for Lingwu to change hands?

He was stunned for a moment, and then poured down like a pot of boiling water.

He jumped to his feet, opened the map and searched all the way, muttering something in his mouth: "Dia Bird is crazy." Is he going to eat more than 300,000 Tuoba clan? How is this possible? ”

In the end, with a strange expression, he summoned his confidants and staff, asked them to draft a letter to the emperor, walked around by himself, and narrated: "Dongxia Dia Bird captured Lingwu, and everyone else was on the outside, but from the minister's point of view, he wanted to encircle and annihilate the main force of the Tuoba clan on the eastern front of Gaonu, and there will be a performance in the near future, and His Majesty can step up the offensive on the middle line to cooperate with it." Minister, how can China's generals be like other countries? The general will lead the soldiers under his command, and the upper county will be the place of death, and will not let the Chen army break through here. ”
