Chapter 164: Air Raid (2)
Although there is no longer any concern that Goguryeo still has a large army, even a small army harassment is not easy to deal with. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
It is necessary to take advantage of the siege of the Goguryeo royal fortress to completely or mostly bulldoze the foundation of the Goguryeo kingdom when there is no order in the territory of Goguryeo, so that the Goguryeo royal city is isolated and helpless, and there is only waiting for death.
Therefore, it is the best policy to besiege the Goguryeo royal city without attacking it and clean up the surrounding area
At present, the royal city of Goguryeo has been isolated and helpless, and I don't know how much food there is in Goguryeo, but the supply outside the city has been cut off, and no matter how much food there is, it will be eaten sooner or later.
The number of 100,000 auxiliaries is very large, and it is not difficult to build a strong camp. In order to prevent Goguryeo from breaking through or sneak attacking, Zhang Yu adopted a double layer of defense.
The first line of defense was a simple guardrail, which was filled in with earth at a distance of about 30 steps to make a high platform, and then a guardrail was built on top of it, and even if Goguryeo rushed into the first guardrail, it would be a matter of death.
Everything was well prepared, and only 20,000 auxiliary troops were stationed on each side of the 100,000 army, with 10,000 auxiliary troops in the front and another 10,000 auxiliary troops in the rear, taking turns to replace and rest.
The remaining 20,000 auxiliary troops were sent to the periphery to clear out, and the time was three to five days or ten days and a half months, depending on the distance, and when the time came, they would be rotated into another 20,000 troops.
This arrangement is to make 100,000 auxiliary troops have hope, if it is boring to stay outside the city to garrison, it is the expectation of every auxiliary soldier to go out and vent ****. By the way, clean up the perimeter of the city so as not to be harassed by some small forces.
Leaving Luo Shixin to lead 100,000 troops to besiege the city, Zhang Yu and Pei Yuanqing began to go north with their troops. As they went, they sent out auxiliaries along the way to clear them, and the remnants of the army or other castles were slaughtered everywhere they passed.
If the Japanese had abandoned their strategy in other directions and devoted all their troops, or a considerable number of troops, to deal with Fengtian, they could have defeated the northern anti-Japanese volunteers.
From this point of view, sealing the sky is an adventure.
However, Feng Tian knew the grand strategy of the Japanese.
Unless the Japanese abandon their so-called grand strategy, in order to gamble on a breath, and fight with Fengtian endlessly.
In the eyes of the Japanese, the Northland is not the Central Plains.
The cost of this war, the Japanese could not afford.
Otherwise, the Japanese would have been dragged into the quagmire of war in the event of a while.
If the war cannot be ended in a short period of time, the Japanese will become poorer and poorer because of this war, and they will even go bankrupt because of it.
On this day, someone from the army sent out suddenly came back to report the news.
"Report, general, I waited to take down a dirt enclosure today, but I accidentally found some Han people inside, and they were all being guarded and worked as slaves.
When we were gathering the captives together, someone probably heard us speaking Chinese, and asked us in Chinese if we were from the army of the Great Sui Dynasty.
After our interrogation, we learned that these people were all soldiers of the Sui Dynasty army who were captured by Goguryeo during the three expeditions to Goguryeo, and there were nearly 100 people.
General, they are now very miserable, they are almost thin, we have separated these people separately, I don't know what to do with them, so I came back to ask the general. ”
Zhang Yu was stunned when he heard the news, and then realized that there were indeed many people in Goguryeo who were trapped in Goguryeo during the Three Expeditions, or were killed, or captured, and no one knows how many people there were.
That's right, this is the hinterland of Goguryeo, and the Sui Dynasty soldiers who were captured by Goguryeo may indeed be placed in this area, which means that there are many places in this area that are likely to have Sui Dynasty soldiers.
It seems that the strategy needs to be changed, and these auxiliaries cannot be allowed to kill indiscriminately, and they need to be screened.
"I have ordered that when the various armies attack, they must screen the captives and rescue the Han among them. Who dares to wantonly and indiscriminately kill and cause innocent deaths of Han people, there is no mercy for killing!"
"No, General. Save the Han people first, if there is an indiscriminate killer, there will be no forgiveness. ”
The subordinates quickly conveyed Zhang Yu's order, and then let the attacking armies know that there were still Han people here.
This small unexpected discovery did save many Han people. Within a few days, thousands of Sui Dynasty captives alone were rescued.
There is also an accident, there is no shortage of people who have lived here for several generations, and still speak fluent Chinese, do you say they are Han Chinese or Goguryeo?
At the end of the Han Dynasty, it was still under the rule of the Han Dynasty, and there were indeed many Han people who settled here.
Now it's Zhang Yu's turn to have a headache, although these people still speak Chinese in their mouths, but there is no guarantee that they are pure Han Chinese, is there no one in Goguryeo who can speak Chinese?
But no matter what, these people must not be equated with the Goguryeo people, and they must be treated differently.
