[188] Flanking the Liao army
And the soldiers of the Song Army next to Zhou Yi, they had never seen such a scene, and the way of playing with such bloodless soldiers and making the opponent scramble and suffering heavy losses was really beyond the scope of their cognition.
However, these uninformed Song soldiers, even Zhou Yi himself was shocked by the effect of this tactic, sure enough, the soldiers are not tired of cheating, the soldiers are not tired of cheating, and the ancients are honest and do not deceive me.
He turned his head and asked Yue Fei, who was beside him, "Pengju, what do you think?" ”
Yue Fei said: "It's domineering enough, but it's not humane enough." ”
Zhou Yi asked: "What is domineering?" ”
Yue Fei said: "For those who are not well-behaved, you have to run over them, this is domineering." ”
"What about humanity?"
"Talk to them before you grind."
"Got it, so you mean I should have put up a sign to tell them there was a hole in the ground?"
“……”
"Pengju, you must know that now they are your enemies, and mercy to the enemy is cruelty to yourself, so in the case of being able to maintain your strength, if there is a way to make the other party suffer serious losses first, it is equivalent to reducing your own casualties, this is a tactic, and it is a very powerful tactic, you must remember that from now on, when you lead your troops to fight, you must always practice this theory, it is useless to be merciful on the battlefield, all conspiracies are strategies, in order to ensure your own victory."
Looking at Yue Fei's thoughtful appearance, Zhou Yi seemed to muttered a little in his heart, I won't teach this child badly, right?
"Okay Lord Zhou, I see." Finally, Yue Fei said, and then stared intently at the battlefield. I don't know what I'm thinking.
Look below again. Although the flames made the Liao army suffer. But after all, it is not a fatal move, although many Liao troops are very embarrassed, but at least they still save their lives.
They all retreated, to the outermost lime puddle, where they had first lined up, and looked at the raging fire and the hundreds of corpses that had fallen into the flames, and Jeroda's lips were about to bite and bleed.
I was still thinking about whether it was an empty city plan, but it turned out that this girl was obviously waiting for the rabbit. Hey, waiting, it doesn't seem to be in the Thirty-Six Plans, forget it, don't care about those details.
All in all, now Yelu Dayi is very hot, bigger than the fire in the sea of fire in front of him, and now he not only wants to break the people inside into thousands of pieces, but even wants to tear down this city, only in this way can he relieve his hatred. Of course, this is also to think about it, so let's take the city first.
Watch the Liao army below retreat. The trap has lost its effect on them, and Zhou Yi said with a smile: "It's fun to watch." Let's rest, we've been standing here for most of the day, rest and rest. After that, he sat directly on the ground and laughed against the wall.
"Lord Zhou, is this really good? Is humanity explained as you do? Yue Fei seemed to be still thinking about the question just now, so he leaned over and asked again.
Zhou Yi put his arm around Yue Fei's shoulders and said, "You are still thinking about such a problem, haha, let me tell you, kindness to the enemy is cruelty to yourself, cruelty to the enemy is mercy to yourself, you don't like to be cruel to yourself because you are kind to others." ”
"It seems that too, well, teachable." Yue Fei said.
After a while, Zhou Yi left some people to guard here, and the others went to eat, but they also ate on the city wall, and the Huotou Army sent them after they were ready. This also ensures that when the Liao army below moves, it can organize resistance as quickly as possible.
But what made Zhou Yi feel very depressed was that there was no movement in Yelu Dayi below for most of the day, and Zhou Yi even saw that they were actually camped below, which was the rhythm of preparing to besiege Yanjing City.
But Zhou Yi is not afraid, there are so many tunnels behind the city, and the materials cannot be transported.
Yelu Dayi didn't really want to besiege Yanjing City, but that inexplicable battle made the morale of the Liao army low, and he had to try his best to restore the fighting spirit of the Liao army, and the injured people also had to be treated, so he stopped the pace of attack. He also asked people to fill in the lime pits, and so many Liao soldiers died in them, which can be regarded as letting them be buried in the ground.
The two sides inexplicably began to fall into a stalemate, Zhou Yi now has food in his hands, he is not panicked, and let the Liao army guard outside, and the main force of the Liao army is in this Yanjing City, then the Jin country is not a soft rice, and when the time comes, the camp will be attacked to see who can't stand it first.
Having made up his mind, Zhou Yi began to busy his own business, leaving only a small number of people on the city gate to guard, and Zhou Yi was to visit the shops and residents in the city door to door, here is different from those places in Ulzhou, Yanjing as the capital, in fact, most of the people are Liao, so Zhou Yi 80% of the visit was spent in the scolding, when he walked out of a shop in the starry sky, he looked up at the brightest North Star, hehe, said, sure enough, If you don't die, you won't die.
If a few days later, Zhou Yi issued a decision to cancel the commercial tax and reduce the agricultural tax by half in Yanjing City, this decision made all the businessmen happy, and did not pay taxes for business, for the first time in thousands of years, the agricultural tax was reduced by half, and the thirty taxes were one, which was very worthwhile.
So Zhou Yi's image suddenly became taller in the minds of these people, the people are like this, whoever treats them well will be loyal to whom, no matter if you are from Liao or Song, and whether you hate you yesterday or not, you gritted your teeth and couldn't wait to deal with it.
For Zhou Yi, this loss is not for him to bear, of course, he can come as he wants.
If Yelu Dayi knew that Zhou Yi was still doing such a thing in the city, it was estimated that he would be so angry that he vomited blood, and even if he captured Yanjing in the future, it was estimated that this tax would not be able to be raised.
This peaceful and peaceful situation was broken in less than a few days, and it was neither Yelu Dayi nor Zhou Yi who broke this situation, but Lin Chong and others who escorted the gold and silver home and now returned. In Zhou Yi's army, the importance of scouts is often emphasized, and he himself treats the scout team as an elite, and all the treatment in the scout team is directly doubled, which can make people red, but the selection requirements for the scout team members are strict, and not everyone can get in, and it is precisely because of this strictness that Zhou Yi's scout team is definitely the first in the industry.
Here's the thing, at that time, Lin Chong completed the task, and then led the people to go back, and when they arrived dozens of miles outside Yanjing City, the scouts in front of him came with news that Yanjing was surrounded by the Liao army, and there were tens of thousands of people. However, although the city is relatively messy, it does not seem to have suffered any major damage, and it seems that the exchange of fire is not very fierce. Lin Chong was immediately relieved and approached with someone. After estimating his combat strength, he resolutely took the initiative to attack!
With 8,000 people against 80,000 people, only Zhou Yi and his subordinates can have this courage, as far as the entire military field of the Great Song Dynasty is concerned.
They attacked at night, and under the influence of Zhou Yi, this kind of thing is no longer a means of indiscriminate use, but a superb strategy, do you understand the strategy?
So, one day, the moon was dark and the wind was high, and outside this Yanjing City, a team of 8,000 people quickly approached the Liao army's station. Because it is just outside Yanjing City, in order to prevent a sneak attack from inside the city, the protection level of the Liao army is still quite high. However, Rao was still unable to resist Lin Chong's attack, and in a panic, the eight thousand Song troops rushed into the ranks of the Liao army under the cover of night like ghosts.
In Yanjing City, in an inn next to the city gate, Zhou Yi was dreaming of hehe ”
"What's fighting? As he walked, he said, what's the matter, I didn't order the attack, could it be that the Liao army is attacking the city? Zhou Yi asked suspiciously.
"No, it seems that there is another team outside, and then it fights with those Liao troops, I don't know who those people are." The soldier said. But just at this time, another soldier ran over out of breath and said to Zhou Yi: "Below, Lin Jiaotou and the Liao army are fighting. ”
Only then did Zhou Yi know that it was Lin Chong who came back with someone, and then he happened to meet the Liao army, and he might have fought like this. However, it seems that Lin Chong brought less than 10,000 people, and the Liao army still has tens of thousands, which is not right.
Thinking like this, Zhou Yi quickened his pace, and at the same time ordered all the soldiers to act, organized 50,000 horses, opened the city gates, and rushed towards the Liao army camp.
Yelu Dayi hadn't slept tonight, in fact, he couldn't sleep, he was wondering where the road of Da Liao was, and when would it be the end of the fight like this.
Suddenly, he heard the noise and shouting outside, and he couldn't help but get angry, and he didn't sleep at night. He walked out of the tent, but saw a large number of people, and the sound of shouting and killing in the distance appeared from time to time, and he immediately became alert, there was a situation!
At this time, a soldier ran over, and when he saw him, he quickly said: "General, we have encountered a sneak attack. I don't know when a squad of men and horses suddenly rushed out and attacked us from behind, and now the brothers can't organize an effective resistance. ”
Yelu Dayi asked, "Do you see who this person is?" Is it Jin Jun or Song Jun, wait, what did you just say about the back? Then it's not the person who came out of Yanjing City, go, go and see. He grabbed his weapon and headed outside. (To be continued......)
