Chapter 166: Release
Kong Xian took the letter and asked with a smile: "Daosi, what exactly did you write in this letter to my father?" ”
Wang Shen: "If Bo Yuan wants to know, just take it apart and see." Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Kong Xian was displeased: "Daosi, you are what kind of person I am Kong Xian, I opened the letter privately, and it was my father's letter, which was not in line with the etiquette." So I went back to the city. ”
Wang Shen: "Come on, send Major General Kong back." ”
When Kong Xian left the Chinese Army Festival account, Wang Shen, who was still drunk before, had a clear light in his eyes, he picked up the teapot and poured himself a glass of water steadily, and smiled faintly: "It turned out to be Miss Kong Er, it's a little interesting." ”
In true history, Kong Yanzhou was a beast in human skin, and he didn't even let go of his own daughter, so much so that it caused a great tragedy of family ethics.
When he first remembered this history, Wang Shen only had a vague thought in his mind, wondering if he could use it to cause civil strife in the Confucian family. Because of this, when the two families were at war, Wang Shen not only did not object to Lu Benzhong's request to marry Miss Kong Er for him, but also publicized it.
Especially after knowing that Kong Lin is the half-sister of Kong Xian, the major general of the Kong family, I feel that if this move is played well, there will be unexpected surprises.
Moreover, the best thing is that this Kong Xianren is still very good. Respect the teacher, love the younger brother and sister, and be a gentleman with a strong sense of morality. Ever since that scandal happened at home, this kid has been in agony all the time. Sometimes Wang Shen really wonders if this kid is Kong Yanzhou's biological son, in fact, the surname Kong came all the way from the north to the south to Qi and Huang, and walked all the way, plundering all the way, with a group of wives and concubines, and it is estimated that he can't figure out whether the children in the wombs of those women were planted before or after following him.
Lao Tzu doesn't need to worry about Kong Yanzhou about this matter, whether it is true or not, he will be turned into a fake, so that Kong Lao Thief will be suspicious of dark ghosts and his own family will be in a mess.
Thinking of the smugness, Wang Shen couldn't help laughing.
After a long time, he instructed the guards: "Go and invite Lu Can." ”
After a while, Lu Can came: "Military envoy." ”
"Ziyu, sit down." Wang Shen sat on the carpet casually, grabbing the back of his neck comfortably: "The troops have all withdrawn?" ”
Lu Can saw that Wang Shen was not in shape, and frowned slightly: "Daosi, after getting your general order, all departments have stopped attacking the city, and only built a walled fort and a long siege outside the city, preparing to plan for the long term." However, it is not an option to go down like this. ”
Wang Shen: "I just suddenly had an idea. ”
Lu Can: "Please also ask." ”
Wang Shen looked very secretive and smiled: "Don't talk about this, I called you here today because I have something to discuss with you." In the month of the siege of the city, Kong Yanzhou conquered the people in the city to fight, and robbed the people's food, thinking that the people in the city had already begun to starve. Hey, after all, it is my people of the Great Song Dynasty, as a court official, how can I bear that they will become starving, and I want to open the net and let the people in the city come out to survive, I don't know what you think? ”
Lu Can was surprised: "It should be like this, it should have been like this a long time ago." However, I am afraid that some people in the army will not will. ”
The meaning of his words Wang Shen naturally knew that Kong Yanzhou had coerced tens of thousands of people before defending the old city of Qichun. After months of siege, there must have been a famine in the city. As long as they surround for a while, Kong Yanzhou's troops will be so hungry that they can't walk, and if they can't say it, there will be civil strife again.
Now that Kaicheng is letting the people out of the city, isn't that reducing the burden on Kong Yanzhou?
Since the beginning of this month, the battle has been big and hard, and both sides have fought hard. This order will inevitably cause dissatisfaction among the soldiers.
Lu Can is a righteous man and a gentleman, so naturally he can't bear to see the people suffering, Wang Shen said that he would let the people out of the city, and he was naturally happy in his heart. But as a leading general, from the perspective of the entire strategy, he still felt that Wang Shen's decision was very unwise: "Daosi, in this way, wouldn't the war continue to drag on." If Kong Yanzhou is not taken again, the thief army on Anlu's side may have abnormal movements. ”
Wang Shen smiled disdainfully: "The whole annihilation of Cao Chengjun and Yang Zaixing's troops, the thieves have lost their courage, and they dare to destroy themselves?" I didn't know that the war was not a big deal if it dragged on like this, but you don't have to worry about it, I have already calculated, and after ten days and a half months, someone will obediently open the city gate to welcome my army into the city. ”
"That's good, that's good." Lu Can nodded, he naturally understood what Wang Shen had called him over today, and said, "Over there, I'll go talk to them, soldiers." ”
Today's Sizhou army has red eyes, fierce and fierce, and is happy when they hear the battle. Surrounded but not fought, they were already dissatisfied, and now they let the people out of the city, they are afraid that there will be a storm immediately.
Wang Shen nodded: "In this way, it will bother the rest of the brothers." ”
Sure enough, as he worried, as soon as he heard that the people in the city were going to be released, the army was in an uproar and shouted, "Why let the people inside?" This is a chaotic life, it must be a traitor by the side of the military envoy. ”
"What people, are there people in them? When the arrows in the upper city shot us, splashed us with boiling golden soup, and smashed the wood and stones down, they had already become soldiers. Now we see that the city is about to be breached by us, but it has been transformed into a common people? ”
"You have to die, see the truth on the battlefield!"
For a time, the crowd was excited and murderous.
Lu Can didn't distinguish between them, and only looked at them quietly with his hands behind his back. After a long time, his face was expressionless, and he paused word by word: "After speaking, listen to me: Is it possible that you still want to slaughter the city after entering Qichun?" ”
"This, this ......"
"Let me ask, are you going to slaughter the city?" Lu Can continued: "It's very good, is it out? ”
It's strange to say, seeing his clear water face, everyone quickly calmed down, looked at each other, and couldn't make a sound. Yes, is it possible that the people of the city will be slaughtered in the future, and how can they do it?
Lu Can: "The military envoy said that not all ordinary people can go out of the city. First are women and children, then children under the age of 10 and the elderly over the age of 60. As for other people, it is okay to come out, but each person has to pay a pound of grain. If there is no food, twenty catties of copper and iron will do. ”
"This one does." Everyone nodded at the same time, and they also understood that Wang Shen's move was to consume Kong Yanzhou's war resources. To put it bluntly, fighting a war is about logistics supply, and fighting is about food, iron, and population.
Wang Jun's envoy let the people out of the city, which can indeed greatly weaken Kong Yanzhou's strength, and this move is very clever. It's just that the surname Kong will obediently obey?
It shouldn't be that simple, right?
In order to keep the people in the city, Kong Yanzhou will definitely take strict vigilance, and even ruthlessly suppress the people who are eager to escape from the city. In this way, there will definitely be a civil unrest.
In any case, it is a good thing for the Sizhou army.
After defeating the coalition of thieves from Anlu, the form improved day by day, and the Sizhou army could be calmly arranged.
