Chapter 458: Deliberations in the Accounts
Knowing that Zhao Guangyi was going to drive the expedition in person, the Manchu civil and military forces, including Sun Yue, actually did not feel surprised.
The world is unstable, the army is not convinced, this product has basically never touched the war, fighting the Khitan is not better than fighting with the south, no matter what, it is also necessary to be elite, such a big authority does not dare to entrust to others anyway, as for the level of his use of soldiers, in fact, it is not so important.
Regardless of how the center deploys troops and dispatches generals, let's just say that at the north end of the river, Yelu Hugo personally went south to attack, who dares to be careless? Sun Yue also took off his gorgeous robe, put on heavy armor, and sat beside Han Chongyun to supervise the battle.
Tan Ma Lai newspaper, Yelu Xiu Ge seems to be very arrogant, the 500,000 army is divided into two, all the way to Yunzhou and all the way to Xiongzhou, that's all, he actually scattered his own 300,000 troops like a plate of scattered sand, each fighting their own, he himself led more than 60,000 elite soldiers to the Waqiao Pass, and shot up a letter with arrows, which was written to Sun Yue, saying that he missed it very much when he said goodbye back then, and asked him to go out of the city for a narrative or something, and said that he was willing to follow the story of the pre-Qin Dynasty and fight a heads-up battle with Sun Yue.
This is purely disgusting, who doesn't know that Sun Yue fights the five scum, so Sun Yue is more reasonable, and he doesn't care about him at all, but he just ordered people to make fires and boil water every day on the city pass, so that the warm smoke curls up on the tile bridge non-stop, and if there is nothing to do, you have to sing to the Khitan people, you must know that it is very cold outside the city, and the heating conditions must be very poor, so you will be angry.
Of course, this is all a trail, and the Khitan people have never been afraid of the cold, and it is the comprehensive strength of the two families that really fights.
The White Tiger Account held a meeting, and Han Chongyun asked, "How many arrows do we have in our army?" ”
Sun Yue said: "More than two million, from Luoyang water and land transport, it is not a big problem to transport another three million in a month, and the materials for defending the city are quite sufficient, but ......" picked up a bow, and shouted loudly, and the arrow shot out with a bang was only more than 30 steps before it was boring, and he couldn't help but say bitterly: "On this day this year, it's too cold, the bow can't be opened, and our army's beast tendon bows are only more than 7,000 in total, so what's the use of saving more arrows?" ”
Han Chongyun said: "There's no way, fortunately, the Khitan has always liked to come when it's cold, and these soldiers of the Tianxiong Army are used to it, just stay up until the spring flowers bloom." Fortunately, since the cement was available, the tile bridge pass has become more and more dangerous, even if the bow and crossbow are unfavorable, they are not so easy to get in. Is there enough food and grass in the forts? ”
"I'll do something, don't worry, I've already prepared it, even if the city is all besieged, it's enough to eat for three or four months, in addition, I have prepared enough firewood for each fortress and fortress to make fires for heating, and there is absolutely no problem if the imperial court reinforcements dare to come."
Han Chongyun nodded and began to discuss the situation with Sun Yue.
Obviously, both of them are holding on to the idea, to put it bluntly, they are relying on the high walls of the city and the Khitan consumption, after all, there are hundreds of thousands of elite reinforcements and royal drivers behind them, and the time is not for me, why fight with the Khitans.
Since the invention of cement, has always been the priority to supply Xiongzhou, more than ten years of construction, the He-North city defense is now far from the history of the early Song Dynasty defense line can be compared, the plain has built 36 fortresses, less than three or five hundred people, more than two or three thousand people, staggered and dense, any Song army fighting on the He-North Plain can guarantee that you can find a place to rest within a day, the same way, also ensure that no matter where the Khitan iron cavalry fights, they are always facing the Song army's chrysanthemum shot, so that the military deployment of the Song army has been revitalized a lot, It greatly reduced the advantage of the Liao cavalry coming and going like the wind.
In this way, it also gave Han Chongyun and Sun Yue the confidence to play scoundrels, and they will talk about it again.
At present, the nominal number one of the male army is Han Chongyun, and the second leader is Sun Yue, and the two of them have already been decided, but in fact, the military discussion is only a formality, but Sun Yue still symbolically asked the following bunch of generals: "What do the generals think?" ”
Han Chongxun, as the main general of the guest army, was the first to stand up to express his support, and the generals of the other Tianxiong Army were naturally unlikely to express any opposition, Sun Yue was about to say that everyone would go home to soak their feet, but he saw a young man in the middle striding forward, and actually said in a loud voice: "The last general thinks it is impossible"
Sun Yue saw that it was actually Li Jilong, and couldn't help but look at Han Chongyun curiously, and the look in his eyes was clear: You arranged it? It turned out that Han Chongyun's eyes were similar to his own, and he seemed to express the same meaning.
Without waiting for the two of them to speak, Han Chongxun scolded angrily: "Li Jilong! Is there a place for you to speak about the war agreed upon by the two commanders? The little deputy commander also dares to be presumptuous? ”
The main general of his army happened to be the son of Fu Yanlin in the Nine Heroes of the Fu family back then, and he knew very well the decision of the merger of the Fu and Sun families, so he couldn't help but reprimand angrily: "Xiao Li, don't be rude, don't retreat quickly!" ”
The rest of the generals looked at him with some disdain, but Li Jilong was not afraid at all, and said loudly: "The two commanders summoned the generals to discuss the matter, isn't it just to solicit people's opinions, if you are not allowed to speak, what do you want me to wait for a meeting?" ”
Han Chongxun was about to scold again, but Han Chongyun stretched out his hand to stop him, and said with a smile: "General Li is right, if Brother Yue and I settle the matter in a few words, then wouldn't it be okay for the two of us to have a meeting, General Li has different opinions?" ”
"Not bad."
"Tell me about it?"
"The last general thinks that the Khitan captives have been killed at the doorstep, and it is not too much to be a shrinking turtle. The first emperor personally conquered the newly restored homeland, and the people's hearts are still fluctuating, if we shrink like this, won't we let them be trampled on wantonly by the Hu captivity! Where is the will of the people, and if they go to recover it in the future, will there still be the grand occasion of the general scramble to return three years ago? Therefore, the general thought that he should take advantage of his unstable foothold and go out of the city with elite soldiers to frustrate his spirit! The last general asks for orders, and if he can't break the enemy, he is willing to make a military order. ”
Sun Yue and Han Chongyun looked at each other, this is so special.
As a coach, to be honest, what I don't like the most is this kind of recklessness, and even the people under my command would rather be a little cowardly, because sometimes recklessness in the military camp is really particularly politically correct, as far as Li Jilong's set of knocks is concerned, who can say that there is something wrong with this? Righteous Ling Ran, this is.
It is precisely because of the great righteousness that Ling Ran is so righteous that it is not easy to object to this for a while, I can't say, it's okay, let the Khitans kill the grass people outside, and they can't grab much grain and grass when they kill them, and it's useless to go out of the city, they can't be saved.
Believe it or not, if you say this, you have to let the history books scold you to death.
Han Chongyun, the old fox, coughed lightly when he saw this, gave Sun Yue a look, and then closed his eyes and recuperated, obviously he wanted to kick the ball to Sun Yue, but Sun Yue was not very good at kicking the ball back, because generally speaking, when the army sang red and white, it was also the responsibility of the supervising army to be scolded.
Fortunately, Sun Yue prepared a little in advance, secretly took out a piece of ginger from his sleeve, wiped it on his eyes, and the tears came down, and he said: "Woo hoo lament, General Li, the people of Hebei are all the people of this official and the people, watching them miserable, this handsome, my heart is like a knife." However, we are responsible for guarding the land, and Waqiao Pass is the gateway to the world, and now the available bow is only 7,000 numbers. Let's take a long-term view of this matter. ”
