In the twentieth round, Shangsa changed the army to take the city of Blunt

Besides, Sagai and Yingge agreed to divide the troops into two ways and besiege Ah Jiu City. He led the partial division, passed through the Hu Lun Ridge, and traveled for two more days to reach Abu Saishui. It was already dusk, and the Wuyan tribe had been on the side of the road for a long time, and immediately invited the soldiers led by the Sagai to stay at the Wuyan tribe's house, and said that he had stopped cooking. Sakai said: "There are so many soldiers that they dare not disturb the people. So he ordered to choose a place where the leeward and the sun were to be set up. He also invited Sakai and his subordinates to sit down with the Wuyan tribe, and said, "Prepare water and wine, and talk and drink a few glasses." Sakai said: "The rules in the army are that the soldiers will not leave the soldiers, and the soldiers will not leave the generals, and they will not dare to separate." And he thanked him very much. "It's better to be famous than to see, and it's better to see than to be famous." He whispered to the people around him, and soon after the people left, he led more than a dozen people, loaded with wine, and came to ****. Sagai rewarded the soldiers with all the consolation items, and did not leave a single penny for himself.

When night fell, Sakai invited him to sit in the tent. As if he wanted to say something, he did not refuse. After entering the account, sit casually. Sagai first inquired about the customs and customs of some local tribes, and then asked: "I don't know what to see and learn about this southern expedition?" "The affairs of the army are extremely secret, and they must have been planned in the trenches, so how dare outsiders participate in them." Sakai said: "Xiao Jin was born here, although he has never participated in Ah Xuan's scheme, but after all, he has some understanding, and is more familiar with the time and place in this area, and the customs and characters, please feel free to talk about it." "In this way, I don't know where to start. Zagcai said, "Please don't be inhibited, just think of it." For example, if you are asked to lead an army against Ah Xuan, how will you command such a battle? Xile Xiaojin smiled: "That's easy to say, in my opinion, we should also divide the troops into two ways and join the army under the city." This is the so-called in-depth policy that cannot be changed. Sagai laughed and said: "Hahaha, it's really the same as the hero." "However, in the direction of the march, the choice is different, and the result is very different. When Sakai heard this, he was amazed and asked, "What is the difference?" Please elaborate. "Before Ah Jiu rebelled, he sent people to connect with other tribes, and although the other tribes secretly rebellious, they were timid, and their attitudes were warm and unclear. Only Dull Grace promised to be his wing, willing to serve the force of death. Zakai said, "He is the son of Naganne, a member of the tribe of Sushire. When Nageny was defeated and killed, he succeeded him and became Sumire. "Yes, that's him." The distance between Ah Xuan City and Dunthorn City from north to south is only twenty or thirty miles. The city of Dull En is in the south, and the city of Ah Jiu is in the north, facing each other from a distance, and they are each other's horns. Therefore, if it is attacked from the southeast and south, Dull En will send troops to support it. The city is very strong, if it is difficult to capture for a while, it will be forced by the inside and outside, and it is really the way to defeat. ”

When Sakai heard this, he was greatly impressed, so he took the opportunity to ask: "In my opinion, what is the best policy?" "In my opinion, it is better for the prime minister to avoid the city of Ajiu and not attack, and take a detour to the south of the east road to pacify the people of the gurgling water and the stars and waters. Behead his henchmen and win the hearts of his people, if he can take advantage of the situation to capture the city of Dull Grace, it will be even more shocking to Ah Jiu's courage. Then, march under the city of Ah Xuan, forming a north-south attack. The siege of the city for a long time, there is no food and grass inside, and there are no reinforcements outside. Sakai said: "This plan is wonderful, and it is indispensable to exterminate Ah Xuan." He said: "The Minister of State has won the award, and I hope that this trip will be successful." I took my leave under it, and I said goodbye! ”

After sending off Shya Sumire, Sakai fell into deep thought again. Originally, he had made an appointment with Yingge to join the army under Ah Jiu City at the same time, but in this way, he would inevitably have to change his strategy of action. He made a detour to the southwest, and if he wanted to attack the city of Dunt, it would affect the time under the city of the Hui army, which might bring unimaginable difficulties to the main force led by Ying Ge. He has to bear great responsibility for all of this, and even has to be responsible for all the consequences. However, this is another strange move, a wonderful move. If he can capture the city of Duthorn, Ah Jiu will be placed in a desperate situation of besieging the lonely city and being in a dilemma. After weighing all the pros and cons, Sagai finally made up his mind to make a detour south and attack the city of Duun first.

When he was about to march the next day, he sent a messenger with a letter to tell Yingge that he had changed the direction of the march on the spot. After Yingge got the news, she changed color, thinking that this would inevitably change the status quo and course of the entire war process. He immediately sent his personal guards, brought his handwritten letters, and went to see Sagai, telling him that the road was going very smoothly, and asking him to proceed according to the original plan.

When the messenger sent by Yingge saw Sagai, the soldiers led by Sagai also arrived outside the south gate of the city of Dull Grace. After a day's rest, the siege began. When the banner of Sagai was hoisted outside the city, and the earth-shattering gongs and drums and the sound of shouts and killings were sounded, he couldn't help but panic and retreated into the city, not daring to go out of the city to face the battle. Later, when he went to the city to watch the battle, he saw that there were not many soldiers in the army of Sagai, so he began to ignore the other party. Every day, several groups of men and horses were sent out of the city to tear them apart, and if they were not victorious, they quickly retreated into the city. Although it was a small defeat, it had no defense against the defense of the city. Although the army of Sachai won several battles, it did not damage the vitality of Duen, and the two armies held each other under the city.

Sakai saw that it was difficult to win, and he also understood that this was because of the small number of soldiers. After thinking about it again and again, he decided to ask Yingge for reinforcements. He had received definite news that the main force under Ying Ge's command had arrived at the city of Ah Jiu five or six days ahead of him. As long as Yingge agreed, reinforcements would arrive in an instant.

Ying Ge was very unhappy at first when she learned that Sagai had asked him for help, and then weighed the pros and cons, thinking that Sagai's way of fighting first to take the city of Dull Grace might be an excellent strategy, so she left a small number of soldiers to monitor the movements of the enemy soldiers in the city, and sent most of the troops to reinforce Sagai. The next day, Sagai sent troops to attack the city from all sides, feinted with a small number of soldiers in the east and west, and sent the main force to attack in the north and south. The next day, he changed his tactics again, changing the north and south to a feint attack, and the east and west to focus on the attack. After attacking for seven or eight days in a row, it was difficult to distinguish between reality and fiction, and he was exhausted. On the 10th day, Sacai concentrated his forces and attacked the south gate. On this day, the defenders deployed at the South Gate were the weakest, and when the Blunt received an urgent report and sent troops to reinforce them, the South Gate had been breached by the army of Sagai. Seeing that the city had been lost, he led a few of his own soldiers out of the east gate and took refuge in the Wugulun tribe Liuke.

After Sagai broke through the city of Duen and pacified the people, he left the soldiers to defend the city, and led the rest of the soldiers to attack the city without stopping.

Yingge joined forces with the army of Sagai, and the army was very majestic. The two discussed it and ordered the troops to rest for a day and prepare to attack the city. On the third day, they gathered troops under the city and attacked in turn. According to the agreement, the Sagai Department attacked the east gate and the south gate, and the army of Yingge attacked the west gate and the north gate. Mao Jianlu shouted loudly at the head of the city: "Yingge, what do you have to do with me as your festival envoy? But he had to lead his troops from afar, show his teeth and claws, and show off his might. You can bully a three-year-old child, but how can you help me! Okay, I'll sit on top of this tower today, sir, and see if you can get me? After all, it really made people set up a table on the city tower, and while drinking wine and eating meat, they couldn't stop sneering in their mouths. Ying Ge was furious, called a few archers, and shot at Mao Jianlu. Who knew that Mao Chulu had already taken precautions, and a row of shields stretched out in front of him. When the arrow hits the shield, it makes a "clang, clang" sound, and then bounces back and falls into the trench. Yingge shouted again, "Siege!" Then another line of archers appeared on the side of the battlements, and they all fired their arrows down the city. In an instant, the arrows came like a torrential rain, covering the sky and the earth. The soldiers who approached the moat, the dead and wounded, and the rest hurriedly withdrew. In the evening, Yingge ordered Mingjin to withdraw the army.

The next day, Yingge still urged the army to attack. Mao Jianlu said at the head of the city: "Hehe, what is your Yingge capable of, just use it today." I, Mao Jianlu, dare to boast to you about this Haikou today, and I will tell you to withdraw your troops without a single soldier. Well, I'm not going to use this trick yet, I'll let you attack for three days and three nights, and then I'll send you away. When Yingge heard this, she ignored him, and the overseer attacked in a hurry.

In the afternoon of the same day, when the battle was raging, I saw a group of people and horses galloping in the distance. Mao Jianlu saw the truth from the top of the city tower, and laughed: "Hahaha, I was just about to ask you to attack it for three days and three nights, but who knows that it will be less than a day, and you will have to get out." Hahaha, fuck off! ”

In a few moments, the group had already arrived at the city. Ying Ge saw that the envoy of the Liao State was coming, and hurriedly bowed to them and welcomed them into the big tent. The Liao envoy took out the holy decree and recited it in Khitan for a long time, and the interpreter said to Ying Ge, who was kneeling and worshipping: "The emperor of Liao has an edict to tell you to withdraw your troops quickly and not to attack Ajiu City!" Ying Ge was about to argue, but the envoy of the Liao State saw what he meant, and hurriedly waved his hand to stop him, signaling him not to say anything more, and said: "The emperor's will cannot be disobeyed!" When Yingge saw it, she had to be silent.

After sending off the envoy of Liao, Yingge's state of mind was in a very contradictory and extremely complicated state. On the one hand, he did not dare to disobey the will of the emperor of Liao, he was unwilling to offend the people of Liao; On the other hand, he was unwilling to see Ah Jiu betray the Jurchens and be difficult to receive the punishment he deserved.

The siege has stopped, but the besieging soldiers can't be withdrawn yet! That night, in the big tent, Ying Ge discussed with the minister of the country about the situation in front of her for a whole night. Ying Ge said: "Prime Minister, your judgment of Ah Jiu is very correct. It seems that Ah Jiu has indeed taken refuge in Liao. Sakai said: "The main problem now is that Ah Jiu himself has gone to Liao, which may be an opportunity for us. We should find a way not to let him return to Ah Jiu City. Otherwise, we would want to come back to this place, it would be a dream. Ying Ge said: "Prime Minister, you mean that we will not withdraw our troops!" Zachai said, "Yes, that's what it means!" Ying Ge said: "However, the will of the Emperor of Liao cannot be violated!" Sakai said: "The Liao people just forbade us to attack the city, and we besieged but did not attack, so he had nothing to say." In addition, if both of us leave here and return to the Wanyan tribe, then they will have no reason to accuse us of disobeying the holy decree of the Liao Emperor. Ying Ge said: "In this way, there must be a person who is both civil and military, wise and brave, who can be competent for this?" Sagai said: "There is one person in the army who can take on this position. In my opinion, this is the only one. Ying Ge said: "The person said by the minister must mean the impeacher. "It turned out that there were two people named Impeacher in the Wanyan tribe at that time, one was the eldest son of Wugu Yao, that is, Sagai's father, who had died at that time. The other is the grandson of Shi Lu, his father's name is Hu Shu, and Yingge is considered a brother in the clan, and it is this impeacher recommended by Sagai.

After agreeing on the choice of the commander, Sakai said: "The city of Dull Grace is not far from here, and now that it has been captured by us, we should also send troops to defend it, so that we can support each other with the soldiers who have besieged the city of Ajiu." If there is an emergency, there is also a way back. When Ying Ge heard this, he went to the city with the impeacher to inspect the city, and couldn't help but sigh: "Judging from the current situation, the country is quite the first to respond to the situation, and the decision to take the city of Dull En in the south cannot but be said to be a wonderful move on the chessboard. If the city is still in the hands of the city, then the soldiers we left behind to besiege the city will not be able to face a disaster. Yingge and Sagai stopped all the deployments, led more than 100 foot riders, and returned to the Wanyan tribe.
