Chapter 114: Gao Yuan's "ATM"
"Brothers on the other side, come and eat, steaming bread and meat, there is no room for you when you are late!"
At night, the bright moonlight illuminates the earth.
There were two adjoining camps on the earth, but they were hostile.
In the small-scale camp, 3,000 iron horsemen are on standby in the depths. And in the place close to the enemy camp, there are dozens of large pots, some stewed meat, some steamed cakes. The shouts were accompanied by the aroma and spread to the huge camp opposite.
In the huge camp, there are 80,000 pairs of eyes, glowing green in the night.
"Gao Mengyan is too despicable!" Yuan Shao's eyebrows burned like this, it was the first time he had suffered such a "method of warfare", but he quickly had a countermeasure, shouting: "Pass my order, all soldiers return to their respective camps, set up law enforcement teams, and those who come out will be killed!" ”
Frustrated in his heart, he reminded: "My lord, in this way, there will be no troops for the night vigil!" ”
Yuan Shao's face twitched for a while, and then he said: "It's okay, Gao Mengyan only has 3,000 people, if he raids my Dazhai, this will also reveal his ugly face to my soldiers." His lies are self-defeating, and the soldiers will fight back desperately in order to survive. I wish he came! ”
It makes sense to think about it, he knows what state Yuan Jun is in now, and Yuan Shao's method is also the best way in the end.
As a result, the generals of the various divisions began to drive the soldiers of their headquarters back to the camps. Since Yuan Shao had saved some surplus grain, this grain was given priority to the officers. Therefore, for these officers who have food in their stomachs, the temptation on the other side can still be withheld.
However, Yuan Shao soon encountered difficulties. Wen Chou as a leading general. Reminded: "Lord, the soldiers are hungry, I'm afraid it will be difficult to establish this law enforcement team." ”
Yuan Shao looked at the soldiers who had returned to the camp one after another. Da breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Just use my own soldiers as law enforcement teams." "Yuan Shao needs a certain amount of personnel to defend himself, and his personal soldiers are not hungry in the end.
At this point, that is, in a quarter of an hour, the camp of the Yuan army was empty, not that there was no one. It was everyone who had entered the tent. In the empty camp, there were only five hundred Yuan Shao's personal soldiers patrolling.
Yuan Shao settled down. Seeing Gao Yuan on the other side, he was extremely annoyed, and shouted at him: "Gao Mengyan, my soldiers and horses are determined, you are wasting your efforts in vain." He was tempted to say that the grain and grass would soon come again. But he didn't say anything about it, and after shouting this, he flicked his sleeves and left.
As he walked towards the tent, he said, "Quick, cook for me." It turned out that he couldn't stand the smell of wine and meat in the lofty camp, and he was hungry.
Gao Yuan stood in his own camp, frowning and looking at Yuan Shao's camp, which was already "empty". Around him, the masters who were originally in full swing. Since there were no "diners", I suddenly became listless. The horse spoon is also thrown into the pot, and the sound of calling you "home" to eat. It's also inaudible.
Sima Yi on the side smacked his lips, obviously, the lord's method was broken by Yuan Benchu.
Zhang Liao and Zhao Yun glanced at each other and didn't say anything. And Zhou Cang straightened his stomach and said, "Lord, it doesn't seem to work." ”
The corners of Gao Yuan's mouth curled. In his opinion, he shouted on his side. There were 80,000 people on the other side, and that was the hell. "Don't be discouraged." He smiled and encouraged the master, "In the dead of night, someone will come to eat." ”
He pulled over a large table for soldiers to eat, and beckoned Sima Yi and the others, "Come on, come and sit down, let's wait while eating." ”
Everyone looked at each other, and said in their hearts that the lord was hit hard, so let's not fight again, drink with us, and then think of other ways.
And the masters are happy, for them, serving the lord and having a meal is the most meaningful thing.
So the crowd took their seats. The masters cut the meat and poured the wine, and they were very happy.
Gao Yuan and his subordinates started a supper, but he still said: "Don't stop the propaganda offensive, continue to shout slogans." ”
Although everyone thought it was unlikely, they still shouted in shifts.
"Brothers on the other side, come and eat, steaming bread and meat, there is no room for you when you are late!"
In the silence of the night, the slogan went too far and too far.
In the camp of the Yuan army, in the soldiers' tents, the soldiers who couldn't sleep heard this slogan, and their hearts were like soup.
"Whoever goes out of the account without permission will be killed!" A team of law enforcement officers walked through one tent area and then went on patrol elsewhere.
In a tent, more than a dozen soldiers whispered.
"If you continue like this, you will have to starve to death here."
"It's better to go to General Gao and start over."
"General Gao is the only prince for our people, and when you go to General Gao, no one can say anything about us."
"The law enforcement team has just passed, and it won't be able to come back for a while, and if it doesn't leave now, it won't be able to leave when it's hungry and can't move!" A soldier could not bear the hunger in his stomach, and he had long been willing to join the state army, so he immediately left the camp and disappeared into the night.
The rest of the soldiers looked at each other, they were soldiers, just to be able to eat their stomachs, and at the same time there was a trace of the ethereal dream of meritorious service as an official. However, the reality is cruel, and promotion and wealth will always be just a dream for ordinary soldiers.
But being a soldier in Gao Yuan is different, everyone has land under Gao Yuan's rule, and soldiers have five acres, and if they can't plant themselves, they can rent it out to collect rent. If you get the real money in your hands, you will be discharged from the army when you are old in the future, and you will have to rely on it for the rest of your life.
"If you want to be a state soldier!" I don't know who shouted a slogan, and more than a dozen people went out.
The thoughts of the people were sometimes strikingly similar, and more and more soldiers in this area of the camp came out of the tents, and they were silent to each other, but they were united in goal, and they quickened their pace to the northwest of the camp.
"Hurry, hurry!" In the night, the soldiers helped each other, climbed over the fence one by one, and ran wildly towards the high military camp.
More and more soldiers joined them, and for a time 3,000 people began to break out of prison. For them, the current Yuan family forces are "prisons", and the lofty forces are "Xintiandi".
"Deserter! No mercy! "When the law enforcement team arrived. Just caught a few unlucky guys, but the rest of them all succeeded in "jailbreaking".
On the other hand, the high army side.
The sound of footsteps sounded outside the camp. Due to the darkness of the night, I couldn't see anything clearly.
Zhang Liao, Zhao Yun, and Zhou Cang, who were drinking with Gao Yuan, immediately got up on guard, and Gao Yuan's heart moved, his face was happy, and Sima Yi on the side looked in the direction of the sound if he had something.
That is, half a minute later, Zhang Liao and the three of them showed a look of surprise. I saw outside the fence of my own camp. Yuan Jun's figure was revealed. The soldiers pressed their faces against the cracks in the fence and threw their weapons away. "We surrender!" shouted. His eyes were fixed on the fragrant pot.
It's really time to surrender!
As more and more soldiers of the Yuan family entered the Gaoyuan military camp, and there were more than 3,000 people who entered after counting, the surprise of Zhang Liao, Zhao Yun, and Sima Yi could not be expressed in words.
And the masters looked at the soldiers of the Yuan family who were gobbling up, and they also smiled. This shows that his cooking skills are still good. "Tut-tut, cooking can also win battles!"
Gao Yuan spoke highly of the masters and said, "Continue to cook more fragrant and more meals to entertain the brothers who come." ”
There are still many things waiting for Zhang Liao and Zhao Yun to do, and they can only temporarily put their admiration in their hearts, so they follow Gao Yuan's instructions, never mention any surrender, and only regard them as accepting their own soldiers. This made Yuan Jun, who was originally very ashamed and embarrassed, surrender his troops. I feel a lot better, and I am naturally grateful.
"The lord's clever plan, these soldiers can be used by the lord with a little training. With the addition of these surrenders. It would be possible to alleviate the burden of recruiting soldiers in the state and thus depriving the land of strong labor for cultivation. Sima Yi couldn't help but admire.
Although Shanxi and Bingzhou, which are controlled by Gao Yuan, are easy to defend and difficult to attack, and are good base areas, it is also an indisputable fact that the population is sparse. There are more than 100,000 households and more than 600,000 people in the state. Most of the three counties of Hanoi belong to Henan, and there were 400,000 people at that time.
The lofty strategy succeeded. The resettlement and surrender of troops will not be mentioned for the time being.
It is said that Yuan Shao has just eaten and drunk enough to go to the kang and has not fallen asleep yet. There was a frustrated and anxious voice outside. He had to get up, walked out, and said a little impatiently: "Gonghe, what's the matter?" ”
Frustrated with sweat, he said, "Lord, it's not good, more than 3,000 people have gone to Gao Mengyan to eat!" ”
He said this euphemistically, and he should just say surrender.
But in Yuan Shao's ears, it was no less than a thunderbolt on a sunny day, and he was shocked to take three steps back and shouted, "What? Three thousand people ran over! He stepped back and sat down on the seat and said, "What about the law enforcement team?" ”
"The number of law enforcement teams is too small, and it is difficult to supervise the entire battalion. ”
According to the news from Yecheng, Yuan Shang's grain team will be able to arrive within three days at the latest. "We must hold out for three days, pass on my order, take the team of 100 people as a unit, implement continuous sitting, and one person runs away and the whole team is executed!" Yuan Shao said hideously.
This method was brutal, but it was a good emergency strategy, so Yuan Jun began to implement joint sitting. However, this contributed to the Yuan family's collective defection with a team of 100 people.
In the coming night, there were more than 100 teams, all of which threw themselves to the high side.
This is simply unbelievable for Sima Yi and others. Gao Yuan's total number of soldiers and horses did not add up to 10,000, and there were more than 10,000 troops here. There was no recruitment at all, and the military power doubled.
"There is really no one before or since!" The next morning, Sima Yi praised from the bottom of his heart.
Gao Yuanle blossomed, and said modestly: "This is all the credit of Yuan Gong." ”
The generals laughed and said in unison: "What the lord said is very true, he knows that the lord is short of soldiers, so he hurriedly sent it." Then there was another burst of laughter.
However, there are joys and sorrows, with the surge in surrenders, the problem also comes, and Gao Yuan also begins to run out of food. But fortunately, after a while, Xu Huang and Yu Ban came, and after hearing about the surrender of the troops, they also joked: "Lord, Duke Yuan knows that the lord is short of food, so he specially asked us to send food." ”
There was no food, no soldiers, and Yuan Gong sent forward. It's a slogan that endures. If this is the statement of later generations, it was originally an ATM, or the kind that does not use a password, and it is available at any time, without adding money.
On Yuan Jun's side, the big tent was filled with Yuan Shao's roar.
Yuan Shao relied on the power of the four states and spent tens of millions of dollars to create a huge army. The price of goods in the future generations will be tens of billions. Gao Yuan didn't produce anything, so he gave out some dry food, which robbed more than 10,000 people.
Yuan Shao's anger can no longer be expressed in words, but he has no choice,
When more than 10,000 people surrendered, he couldn't sit still. Today's situation has changed from holding on to waiting for help to sitting still. Yuan Shao could not sit still, so he made a decision. (To be continued)
PS: Thanks: Xiaoyao-Hou, stay in memory, immeasurable idlers, and james242 cast a monthly ticket.
There is one chapter in the afternoon, and two chapters in the evening. At the end of the fourth watch, the whole army assaulted. However, if you can't win the turf and the results are not good, you will be defeated. The battle was defeated, the last general was killed, and the lord was gone.
