Chapter 213: Heaven Falls (19)

"It's a foolish thing to attack the enemy's strengths with your own shortcomings." Wanyan Haiya explained his intentions to the high-level Liao army in the tent, "The Zhao army is good at defending cities, we are not good at attacking cities, and it will be very unfavorable for us to continue the battle like this." ”

Speaking of this, Wanyan Haiya got up, pointed to the map and said: "If we follow our previous thinking, in addition to attacking Huairou, we will also attack Shunyi in the south, as well as Changping and Yanqing in the west, which are only the main big cities. Whether it is Shunyi, Changping and Yanqing, the walls of these three cities are comparable to Huairou City, how much time will it take to completely defeat these cities, and how many Manshu warriors will be sacrificed? ”

After the Liao army on the way of Yan Haiya attacked the three cities of Miyun, Chaohe and Neimiyun, they slaughtered the three cities, and savagely burned and plundered the residents in the city, and tasted the sweetness from it.

Of course, the Menggu tribe and the rest of the barbarian tribes also have a part, and Wanyan Haiya can encourage the Menggu tribe and the rest of the barbarian tribes to attack the city. It is to rely on primitive barbaric plundering methods to stimulate the desires of these steppe people.

The gold and silver treasures in the city and the delicate Han girls are the source of motivation for these grassland people to risk their lives to attack the city.

No one in the top level of the Liao army in the tent stood up to refute Wan Yan Haiya, Wan Yan Haiya was right, if they attacked the city and plundered the land along the way, and gave the reinforcements of the Zhao army enough time to serve Wang Jingshi City, the Liao army would be very passive.

Moreover, the Western Liaoning Corridor was not opened, and the Liao army would not be able to gain a foothold in Beizhili even if it occupied part of the Northern Zhili. Only after opening up the western Liaoning corridor will the northern direct subordinate and eastern Liaoning region be closely linked. After forming a situation in which the advance can be attacked and the retreat can be defended, the Liao army can infiltrate into Beizhili.

"The purpose of our entry this time is not to occupy the city of the Zhao people, but to test the reality of the Zhao people. At the same time, we will nurture the war with war, strengthen our national strength, and prepare for the future. Wanyan Haiya continued, "My purpose is to directly stab at Jingshi City and deal a fatal blow to Zhao Jun, so that the pressure on my father's side can be reduced a lot. ”

Several high-ranking Liao army leaders in the tent stood up and refuted Yan Haiya's thoughts: "His Royal Highness the Third Prince, it's too risky to do this, Jingshi City is the land of Jinggi of Zhao State, and there are many garrisons around, these cities are like cocoa nails pierced around Jingshi City, if you don't pull out these nails, you can directly suppress Jingshi City, in case these Zhao troops go out of the city to intercept and kill my Great Liao Army......"

Facing the rebuttal of the high-level Liao army in the tent, Wan Yan Haiya did not look angry at all, but smiled and said: "If the Zhao army goes out of the city, it will fall into my arms, in the wilderness, under the whole world, which army is the opponent of my Manshu warriors?" ”

Giving up the attack on Huairou City is just an appearance, luring the defenders in the city out of the city to chase the field battle is the real goal of Wanyan Haiya.

Shuntianfu was attacked by the Liao army, which had already conquered several important cities. Moreover, this time the Liao army entered the customs with great momentum, which has caused serious damage to Shuntianfu.

Several cities that were captured: Miyun, Chaohe, Neimiyun, Zunhua, and Jizhou were all bloodbathed by the Liao army without exception.

The cities that were not captured were also in danger for everyone, except for Huairou City and Sanhe City, which were besieged by the Liao army. The people of the rest of Shuntianfu moved on a large scale in three directions, eastward to Yongping Mansion, which had such a natural danger as Haimen Pass, and was close to the Liaoxi Corridor where the Qin army was located. Yeongpyeongfu is much safer than Suncheonfu.

The direction to the south is mainly to Hejian and Baoding, and the people of Shuntianfu have two choices after arriving at Hejian and Baoding. One is to stay in Hejian Mansion and Baoding Mansion, and the other is to choose to continue to go south, fleeing south to a farther place, where the Liao army's iron cavalry cannot pursue, and at present, only farther and farther away from Jingshi City can it be safer.

The southward direction is mainly to Baoanzhou, Xuanfu and Shanxi, and even further.

The Jinmen guards have not been spared, and a large number of refugees have poured into the Jinmen guards every day, and the most common group of people in troubled times is the refugee group.

In the eyes of officials in this era, refugees are a powder keg. The controlled dwelling is called a refugee or a displaced person. Once this group gets out of control, it will become a rogue that threatens the rule of the Empire.

One of the most typical examples in recent years is Lu Tianhao, Lu Tianhao was originally a refugee, and finally rose up in order to survive, won the support of the refugees, and soon snowballed out of an army of 100,000 rogues, which is simply a copy of Chen Sheng and Wu Guang.

Liu Shu was a snob. This is He Tengxiao's current view of Liu Ce, ordinary officials are scornful of martial artists, and they are always superior in front of martial artists, and they refuse to restrain themselves. And Liu Shu is by no means such a pedantic civil official, and Liu Shu's snobbery also vaguely reveals tactfulness.

Compared with pedantic officials, He Tengxiao prefers to cooperate with snobbish officials like Liu Shu.

How to deal with the problem of displaced people has always been the most troublesome problem for local officials, and the handling of the problem of displaced people is linked to the performance evaluation of local officials.

No local official will joke about his future, and the remote places are far away from the emperor and the emperor can also make false reports, as long as it is not too serious and outrageous, it will not be detected by the center.

And the Jinmen guards at the feet of the Son of Heaven are very close to Jingshi City, and Liu Ce can't fool him if he wants to, of course, Liu Shu doesn't have the courage to commit the crime of bullying the king at the feet of the Son of Heaven.

The Jinmen guards came from Liangcheng, Wuqing, Dong'an, Xianghe, Yongqing, and even a small number of refugees who escaped from Jingshi City.

The number of these displaced people is tens of thousands, and Liu Shu does not dare to ignore these displaced people. can only be tired of running for their lives to stabilize these displaced people, in case those who have a heart take the opportunity to stir up trouble and bewitch the displaced people.

Once these homeless people lose control, the black gauze hat on Liu Ce's head can't be saved, not to mention, whether the head on the neck can be kept is one thing.

Unlike those fleeing famine, these displaced people are only temporarily sheltering from the fighting, and they carry enough food to meet their needs on the way to escape. This is the only thing that Liu Ce is gratifying, at least he doesn't have to think about the food of most of the homeless.

The number of displaced people is too large to be able to maintain order for tens of thousands of refugees by relying solely on the local security forces of Jinmenwei. Liu Shu had no other way but to start He Tengxiao's idea, where is there a more reliable team than He Tengxiao's Qinwang army at the moment.

He Tengxiao is not an unreasonable person, He Tengxiao is very aware of the terrifying power of these outcasts. He gladly agreed to send troops to help Liu Shu maintain order among the refugees, while evacuating the displaced people to flee farther south.

Tsu Gatekeeper is not a safe place after all. (To be continued.) )
