Chapter 2400: The Official's Clever Plan (Part II)

As the night wore on, a Song army suddenly and quietly left the barracks. At this time, Song Jiu and Wu Yanrou were both sleeping.

The sky brightened.

The Southern Han army arrived, and large and small ships anchored and landed one by one. The scene was a little chaotic, this was the inevitable result of landing on the beach, but it was not critical, and the Song army was still twenty miles away. A few soldiers carried a Hu bed, that is, the kind of chair that could sit and lie down, and many brave generals liked to sit on it to command. Especially the Tang Dynasty people. But on the shore, in the dense bushes of the mountain forest, a pair of big eyes were staring at him.

Shoot a man first and shoot a horse first, and capture a thief first and capture the king first!

It was him who was watching, and what he was waiting for was this moment, just when Wu Yanrou came ashore and was able to carry out the beheading plan, and the Southern Han army was in chaos, and after a while, the Han army was assembled, and if it was fought at that time, the victory would be a disastrous victory.

The trumpet sounded.

One by one, the soldiers of the Song Dynasty shook off the camouflage from the bushes and killed them. All pointed to Wu Yanrou. This trick is very effective, there are also scouts in the Southern Han, and if you want to ambush, you can't use too many troops, otherwise you will be seen by the Southern Han scouts. There are few people, and only the decapitation plan can be carried out. But if Wu Yanrou panicked, he couldn't command. An army without a command is the same as a plate of scattered sand.

Although the soldiers of the Southern Han Dynasty were weak, they were also soldiers, but they were caught off guard and resisted one by one in a panic, Wu Yanrou jumped off the bed of the hu, not knowing whether Lu Dao was commanding or escaping on the boat. The Song army slaughtered him.

Song Jiu didn't know all this.

But he wisely didn't get involved, so what's the use of getting involved? Just after breakfast, the front reported that the Southern Han army had landed, and the army was neatly clothed. Song Jiu thought he was going to face a positional battle. Who knew that Pan Mei ordered: "Rush! ”

Song Jiu was even more confused, if so. Why not resist on the shore and wait for the enemy to hit the mudflats halfway up. Wouldn't that be more effective? Later, after thinking about it, I realized how wonderful Pan Mei's plan was, if it was really as he thought, would Wu Yanrou still be able to land here? I had already disembarked in the south of Hezhou City and entered the city. So how to do it head-on.

He had no choice but to ride his horse and rush south with the army, but fortunately it was only twenty miles, not too far, and he would arrive in a while. But by this time, the battlefield had already become a slaughterhouse, and there was no waiting for reinforcements from the rear to arrive. The ambush soldiers captured Wu Yanrou alive. Even the leaders were taken, and although the Southern Han army had increased by dozens of times, it had become its own battle, and no matter how many people there were, it didn't work, and they were constantly slaughtered by this group of ambush soldiers. Pan Mei waved the banner, and the army killed again.

After a few battles, Song Jiu wanted to get better, and seeing that the Song army was killing people everywhere, many people fell down and surrendered. was still killing, so he rode over and shouted: "Surrender and don't kill, don't kill prisoners." ”

The main news of not killing prisoners has not yet reached the rear of the Southern Han Dynasty, and Wu Yanrou's subordinates do not know what to do. One of them saw Song Jiu wearing a general suit, and in a hurry, he slashed it down. Song Jiu raised the Pu knife in a panic to parry, but still let the knife slash to the thigh.

The battlefield is not for itself. Song Jiu escaped again. Then he sent his subordinates to find Li Chao and asked him to shout. He sat down and asked the medic to bandage his wounds. Because I'm in a hurry. Many equipment was not brought, including the Tiger Cannon, although simplified, it was still cumbersome, and even the logistics were not transported, and it was a Tiger Cannon. However, I brought disinfectant alcohol and boric acid water. The wound was a little deep, and when the doctor rubbed the alcohol, Song Jiu grinned in pain.

Li Chao organized it, which was more effective than him, and after a while, the Southern Han soldiers laid down their arms and surrendered together. Nearly 10,000 elite soldiers of the Southern Han Dynasty, even at this moment, still shouted, and six or seven out of ten died. The Song army recruited prisoners of war and cleaned up the battlefield.

Song Jiuyi limped over and shouted, "Grandma, who cut me just now." ”

It hurts.

The soldiers of the Song Dynasty grinned one by one, that is the place of battle, what do you say when you ride a horse and insert it.

But they didn't expect the prisoners of war to admit it, who would dare to admit it? But to their surprise, a soldier came out of the crowd and said, "General, it's me, but you said you wouldn't kill the prisoners." ”

"Lao Tzu shouted that not killing the captives was to save your lives, and you still used a knife to cut Lao Tzu," Song Jiu was furious in pain.

The creeps were scared silly.

Fan Yu looked at Song Jiu's injury, which didn't seem serious, and said happily: "Military law must be enforced, don't kill in anger." ”

Song Jiu thought about it, what should I do, it was what he said, thought about it again, and asked, "What's your name?" ”

"The little one is called Wang Pillow."

"Okay, Lao Tzu won't kill you, but you must be Lao Tzu's personal guard in the future."

Wang Zhen didn't dare to answer, isn't this nonsense, what kind of guard, when you see that you don't like it in the future, you don't want to torture it?

Fan Yu kicked him and said, "Boy, you have good luck, thank you quickly." ”

Then he whispered: "Jiulang, whether you can implement it, whether you can avoid the tragedy of Hunan and Bashu, it's up to you." ”

In fact, Song Jiu couldn't be angry, let these soldiers surrender a moment earlier, then hundreds or thousands of people would be killed. But after thinking about it, he still endured this anger and said, "Come with me." ”

The king followed him with sorrow.

Song Jiu continued to limp, he turned Wang Zhen behind him and panicked once, and Song Jiu said: "Wang Shi came to save you from fire and water, so he announced eleven military disciplines. ”

Let dozens of Fuzhou people who took the initiative to escort logistics with the army tell them about the so-called military discipline, and what they said is not counted, they have to let the people of the Southern Han Dynasty talk about it. After they finished speaking, Song Jiu said again: "After the battle of Hezhou, I will release you immediately." But before that, you have to do one thing, make boxes, screen out these dead soldiers, mark their names and places of origin, and burn them into ashes so that they can be given to their families later. ”

Pan Mei shook her head on the side.

came with Song Jiuhu.

The army once again came to the city of Hezhou, Pan Mei let Song Jiu carry out the prisoner of war policy, but did not let Wu Yanrou go, showed Wu Yanrou to the public under the city, and ordered the city of Hezhou to surrender. Hezhou still did not fall, Pan Mei discussed with Yin Chongke and Wang Jixun who was lying on the Hu bed.

Lao Wang was also old, and the speed of this march was too fast, he couldn't bear it, and finally fell ill. Lao Wang said: "Order the rear to rush to transport the tiger cannons, otherwise the strong attack will inevitably lead to heavy casualties, and we only have 10,000 soldiers." The conquest of the Southern Han barely took the first step, if the casualties were too great. The follow-up is inevitably weak. ”

Pan Mei also thought so.

Wang Ming hurriedly said: "Take advantage of the frustration of the defenders in the city to attack, otherwise reinforcements will come again." The morale in the city rose again, and our division was old, and the southern expedition was futile. ”

The reason is very simple, how many soldiers and horses did the Southern Han Dynasty have, as soon as they came, the Song army was just that, and it seemed that the imperial court did not send reinforcements over, and the morale would inevitably be reversed at that time. What is fought is morale, and morale is lost. Don't talk about the conquest of the Southern Han Dynasty, go back quickly.

Several lords didn't speak, and Wang Ming hurriedly said: "If you don't attack, I'll attack." ”

They all thought he was telling a joke, Wang Ming really attacked, there were a lot of people, thousands of people, and there were also soldiers, so they couldn't just let the people protect the grain. There are also many soldiers who protect the grain, a hundred......

In fact, the main army marched too fast. Many people are still behind, and they will not have time to rush to the city of Hezhou.

Several of the main generals continued to deliberate, but they didn't think of it at all. Song Jiu also didn't expect that he was supervising the making of urns for prisoners of war. Screening of corpses. One was identified, and there was also the body of Song Jun. It had already been screened out, very few, only a hundred or so people. Most of them were killed in the initial ambush, but when the army arrived, it was a completely one-sided massacre, with few casualties. Song Jiu was on this casualty list. It hurts so much that I rub my thighs. Wang Zhen saw that something was wrong, and hurriedly came over to rub it for him.

"I ask you, I shouted, don't you understand, why do you want to cut me?"

There are also language differences, but the Southern Han Dynasty is also mostly Han soldiers, and the difference is not big. Wang Zhen said with a sad face: "General, the little one doesn't know what to do, so he slashed it casually." ”

"Will you cut all my armor off, or will you just cut it?"

"The little one must forgive the sin, I hope the general will let me go."

"Help me go."

"Yes."

As soon as Song Jiu stood up, he saw Wang Ming rushing towards the city with a hundred grain guards and thousands of people. Song Jiu scratched his head, no, the siege is OK, but the people can't be allowed to attack the city. But these people were even more excited than the soldiers, and they screamed with shovels and shovels in their hands, and rushed to the city. Hundreds of Fuzhou people shouted at the same time: "The king is invincible." ”

Song Jiu hurriedly said to Wang Zhen and Guo Da: "Take me to the middle camp." ”

He has seen the siege battle, Taiyuan attacked and defended many times, that tragic scene is still fresh in his memory, these people rushed to the city, that is undoubtedly sent to death, as long as the city is a rain of arrows, at least half of the people can be broken. There is a shortage of people everywhere, so although Hunan is now a little better, many areas are still a desolate scene, and the people cannot be sent to death like this.

But as soon as he jumped a few steps, he said, "Stop, stop." ”

There was no movement on the top of the city, and there were soldiers guarding the city, but they looked at this crazy group of people, and they were stunned one by one. Song Jiu took out the binoculars from his arms and looked up, and saw that the soldiers above were confused, scared, worried, and even saw an official, who was about Chen Shouzhong, the assassin of Hezhou, who had the same look in his eyes as the soldiers. This scene shocked the soldiers at the head of the city, how fierce and desperate even a man who was carrying grain was and how to fight.

Thousands of people were working, and the movement was very fast, and the trench was filled in the blink of an eye, and some of the people shouted excitedly: "Carry the siege ladder." ”

Half of them were wielding shovels and shovels at the top of the city, and half were running back to get siege equipment. Don't lift it, see the ditch filled, go straight to the city gate, the people in the city will open the city gate themselves, you are the king, please come in, we will not resist. From beginning to end, Chen Shouzhong stood at the head of the city and watched, forgetting to give orders. Pan Mei also came out, he thought that Wang Ming was talking about jokes or angry words, but he didn't take it seriously, and continued to discuss all kinds of conspiracies and tricks in the big tent. Then the soldiers came to report that Wang Ming had really attacked the city. Pan Mei was furious and hurriedly came out with Yin Chongke, preparing to cure Wang Ming's crimes. But like Song Jiu, they saw that the movement on the city was wrong, so they stood there and watched the situation develop.

The trench was filled, and Pan Mei was about to give an order to let Wang Ming bring people back, it was easy to fill the trench, but it was difficult to attack the city. But then his eyes were about to pop out, and before the people who moved the ladder arrived at the back camp, Wang Ming led a group of people to attack Hezhou City.

Is this a god's truth?

Pan Meidu forgot to inform the army to enter the city immediately, and stood there in a daze. Song Jiu was helped over by Guo Da and Wang Zhen, and Pan Mei asked, "What is the injury?" ”

"The flesh was hurt, but the bones were not hurt, and the problem was not serious."

Pan Mei looked at Wang Zhen and said, "You little bastard, the two armies are fighting, and there are casualties among each other, but anyone can be injured, you can't hurt Song Jiu." ”

Wang Zhen bowed his head and admitted his mistake.

In fact, the main reason is that Liu Gang is too brutal, and the soldiers have no sense of honor for their family and country. Pan Mei said: "Let's go into the city." ”

The things of war come by yourself, and the things of appeasement have to be done by your son-in-law. Song Jiu helped Da Hei, rode into the city, and Pan Mei said on the horse: "Song Jiu, I finally understand why the official family only gave me this little force, that is, Pingnan Han. ”

Then with a wry smile, a group of people with shovels and shovels captured a city, which also set a record. (To be continued......)
