552 Attack the Heart
As the saying goes, there are more than 10,000 people, and there is no boundary. Outside Yulin City, there were nearly 100,000 troops, and it was really an endless camp, which was very spectacular.
However, there is a little disharmony in the vast majority of the area as far as the eye can see, and the camp tent cannot be called a camp tent at all, but a piece of cloth on a few wooden shelves, which can neither shelter from the wind nor the rain, at most it blocks the sun.
However, there is still a part of the Ming army camp, which is a regular military camp tent, but this is too little, almost negligible.
In the middle of this regular Ming army camp tent, there is a camp tent several times larger than other camp tents, and a Ming army general hurriedly walked in under the guidance of a personal guard, looked up, and saw that the governors of the three sides were looking at the hanging map, and hurriedly saluted: "My lord, there will be an urgent matter to see." ”
Chen Qiyu naturally knew that the person who came was an official in charge of logistics, so he didn't turn his head, but asked lightly, "What's the matter?" ”
"My lord, it's still about food and grass. Now that the army has been assembled under the city, if you want to feed the soldiers, I am afraid that it will only last one day. The quartermaster said with a sad face.
On the way, he had reminded the Governor many times that there was not enough food and grass. But every time, Chen Qiyu just asked him not to worry about this, and when he was in a hurry, he only gave it thin, and he could eat less.
He also knew that the governor had finally begged for a little food from the imperial court, and had taken a lot of trouble to get some from the local squires. It would be a bit difficult for the Governor to raise more food.
When he was on the road, every time Chen Qiyu asked him not to worry about food, his heart hung a little, and he was very worried about his head.
And it can't be blamed on him, at this time. "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" has become popular, and many people can hear relevant commentaries. This quartermaster was afraid that Chen Qiyu would learn from Cao Cao, and when the time came, he would borrow his own head and use it, and it would be over.
This time, his heart has been hanging, and his knees are a little weak. I'm afraid to hear the last thing I want to hear.
This time, though, his worries were still unfounded. I only heard Chen Qiyu say to him lightly: "The thief army, don't worry about it, just wait for tomorrow to attack the city and then allocate some." ”
The dignified trilateral governor did not hesitate to call the thieves army the thieves who had already been recruited, which obviously showed that he did not put the thieves in his eyes at all, or put the thieves in his eyes.
For this. In fact, there is also a consensus among the Ming army. It's just that the quartermaster didn't expect that this is approaching a big war, and the governor still doesn't care about the food problem on the thieves' side, which can be regarded as extremely contemptuous, isn't he afraid that the thieves will rebel in front of the army?
However, the quartermaster did not have the courage to raise this question in front of the governor. Now that the governor has orders, he just has to do as they are told.
Chen Qiyu heard the footsteps of the quartermaster leaving the Chinese army's tent. I didn't care, and continued to watch. For now. He still needs to wait for the assembly of siege equipment, and it will be dark now, just waiting for the siege tomorrow morning.
Thinking of this, he remembered that when he looked at Yulin City before, he could feel that there were not many heavenly troops in the city. It is estimated that even if the Heavenly Army is called for reinforcements, it is unlikely to exceed the number of 5,000.
Nearly 100,000 troops on his side. For siege, it's enough. And when the war starts tomorrow, look at how the heavenly army will be hypocritical when facing ordinary thieves!
As soon as he thought of this, Chen Qiyu couldn't help but sneer at the slogan of calling the Heavenly Army to be the master of the people's house. How is this possible, it will only deceive those uninformed people. Tomorrow I am about to debunk this slogan, and see what the Heavenly Army will use to cover up its rebellion in the future!
At this moment, a general from the front suddenly came to report, saying that the heavenly army was called to shout at the head of the city.
Chen Qiyu was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and couldn't help asking: "What are they shouting, are they going to talk about conditions?" ”
"My lord, no. The call for the Heavenly Army is shouting surrender and not killing," the general replied a little embarrassed.
Hearing this, Chen Qiyu was strange. The heavenly army is surrounded by 100,000 troops, although it is not elite, but it can drown this heavenly army in terms of numbers, and it is really strange that they dare to shout that they will surrender and not kill!
Curious, he went out of the Chinese military tent, and under the escort of a group of generals, under the afterglow of the setting sun, he went to the forward camp to see the situation.
Before Chen Qiyu arrived at the forward camp, the voice in Yulin City had clearly reached his ears. I'm afraid there are hundreds of people shouting loudly together, right?
He went no further, stopped and listened.
"As long as there is no blood in your hands called the soldiers of the Heavenly Army, surrender and do not kill. We call the heavenly army to always treat the captives preferentially, and those who remain in the heavenly army have a bite to eat; If you don't want to stay, give you the passage fee to let you go home. ”
"Ladies and gentlemen, I am Suide's forced to heaven, I was captured by the Heavenly Army, but now I am much better than before. As long as you don't do all kinds of evil, the Heavenly Army will treat the prisoners preferentially, and don't go against the Heavenly Army! ”
“……”
Such words were shouted repeatedly, spreading throughout the south, south, and north, but the Ming army listened silently after the initial commotion was suppressed.
Chen Qiyu's face turned pale when he heard this, and he secretly said in his heart. Although he has an army of 100,000 on his side, he can be mostly thieves. And these thieves are the most demoralized. When I was called to the Heavenly Army, I didn't know what would happen. Even among the officers and soldiers, if the Heavenly Army can really say and do the same, I am afraid that the army's heart will be shaken.
Thinking of this, he immediately ordered the surrounding generals to send military law teams to inspect the battalions, and suppress them as soon as there was any sign of it.
Chen Qiyu is helpless, the sky is about to dark, can he pull out the camp and retreat dozens of miles? I can only listen to it, and then use military law to suppress it. When the siege of the city begins tomorrow, everything will be fine, and this set of methods of attacking the heart and mind of the heavenly army will be self-defeating.
When he had finished speaking, he turned and left. But at this moment, Yulin Town's shouting suddenly disappeared, and a strange and emphasized singing voice came out. He listened closely, and after a while, his face became even more ugly.
Chen Qiyu replied angrily in the song of "Three Major Disciplines and Eight Points of Attention, the Revolutionary Army Should Keep It Firmly in Mind."
When he arrived at the big tent of the Chinese army, he thought about it, and finally ordered to strictly prevent the heavenly army from stealing the camp at night. As long as you survive this night, tomorrow will be called the Heavenly Army.
His command, in fact, is just an emphasis. He had thought about this before. Therefore, in the outermost circle of the camp of the great army, there were all the old and sick among the thieves, that is, those whom the heavenly army said would rule for them. With these people as shields, coupled with the caution of the generals, they should be able to beware of stealing camps, Chen Qiyu thought. (To be continued.) )
