Chapter 257 Data analysis, intimidating Jin Jun
The celebration was only short-lived, and after a short period of celebration, the Xiangfan region quickly entered into a wartime economic policy.
And at this time, the intelligence system of the pit father finally sent the information.
Although he worked hard to build an intelligence system, worked hard to find out everything that happened to the Jin Army, and quickly conveyed the news, it was just that the intelligence transmission of this era was still too poor, and the secret agents of this era did not have the military commanders of later generations, the US Intelligence Agency, and the Soviet Union's Klopb.
Backward technology, backward intelligence personnel training, backward information transmission tools, and many backwardness, all superimposed led to the fact that at this moment, Zhao Pu knew the ins and outs of this surprise attack.
At this time, the Jin army had just risen, and it belonged to the "rise and sudden", and the entire ruling group belonged to the rising stage, with few internal battles, and concentrated all its efforts on external invasion, like a wild wolf, always paying attention to every enemy.
And Zhao Pu, as the emperor of the Song Dynasty, naturally fell in their eyes.
These high-level officials of the Jin Army even collected a lot of information about Zhao Pu, analyzed it, sorted it out, and finally came to a conclusion that this was the great enemy of the Jin Army.
After Zhao Pu became emperor, envoys from the Jin army sent letters asking for peace many times, trying to lure the Song Dynasty into submission, but they were all treated coldly.
In the embassy, Jin Jun ate and drank well, but he didn't see each other.
Every time the Jin envoy returned, Zhao Pu would write a letter to Wu Maiqi, the emperor of the Jin State, in which there was neither Song Huizong and Song Qinzong's condescension, nor Li Gang's view of death, but just a constant discussion of the battle situation
The first letter, "On the Battle of Song and Jin", analyzed the battle situation of Song and Jin, and clearly pointed out that Jin was strong and Song was weak, but the Jin army was not good at fighting a protracted war, and if the Great Song could not be destroyed within three years, the Jin State would inevitably be exhausted. The financial resources dried up, and in the end they were defeated without defeat.
The second letter, "On Protracted War", tells that if the protracted war continues, the Jin army will be defeated and the Song army will win;
The third letter, "Guerrilla Warfare and Movement Warfare", pointed out that the rear of the Jin army was unstable, and under the blows of guerrilla warfare and movement warfare, the Jin army would be defeated;
The fourth letter, "The Internal Turmoil of the Jin Kingdom", predicted that the Jin army would inevitably cause trouble and fight for the throne. triggering an overall contradiction;
The fifth letter, "On the Five Nonsense and Chaos", talks about the decline of the Jin army;
…………
In short, the letters were sent through the envoys of the Jin army, and finally fell into the hands of the Jin Emperor Wu Qimai, and were finally read by the entire Jurchen high-level.
In the letter. There was no Chengjin army as a "noble army", and Wu Qimai was not called "the emperor". did not denigrate Jin Jun as a "barbarian". "Golden Dog" is just called "Jin Jun" and "Emperor of Jin", with a flat tone and no praise or disparagement, as if two close friends are talking about national affairs.
I can't see that it is a mortal enemy at all.
In these letters, the weaknesses of the Song army were unceremoniously pointed out. For example, party strife, civil and military discord, weak soldiers, and lack of finances. The morale is low, etc., without a trace of concealment, but at the same time, it also points out the weaknesses of the Jin army, such as the lack of soldiers, comfort, pleasure, lack of cultural talents, and the impact of the massacre is too bad.
The content of the letters varies, but they all point out that the Song army will win and the Jin army will be defeated.
In these letters, there are not too many calls, not too many allusions, and no flowery rhetoric, everything is simple and straightforward, like boiled water, even the Jurchens with a low level of education can understand the content.
After the Jurchen high-level looked at it, they only felt that their eyes were bright, and everything that looked at the flowers in the fog in the past was clearly visible.
The Jurchen high-level unanimously believed that the new emperor of the Song Dynasty was eloquent and strategic, had the ability to revive the Great Song Dynasty, and was the Song Dynasty's version of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.
No one likes the emperor of great talent, and the courtiers do not, because the emperor takes away the power of the courtiers; The enemy did not like it either, because the emperor of great talent always liked to attack regardless of losses.
Ordinary emperors are concerned about losses, gains and losses, public opinion, and reputation; But the emperor is different, he doesn't care about anything, he only cares about victory. ,
During the Han Dynasty, the attack on the Xiongnu was also defeated, and there were quite a few of them; But Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty didn't care about the loss or consumption, he just wanted to defeat you, and finally consumed the Xiongnu alive.
At the top of the Jurchen leadership, they all realized that the new emperor was eloquent, and the strangulation was even more serious, and they vowed to kill the new emperor. So the whole country conscripted, the strength of the country was dispatched, and the 500,000 army went south, like a tide, to attack the Great Song Dynasty from three roads, and the focus of this attack was the Xiangyang area, in order to capture and kill the Song Dynasty Emperor Zhao Pu, and strangle this Song Dynasty version of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty in the growth stage.
It's just that the 500,000 army was dispatched, and the action was too slow, coupled with the sniping of the Jin army along the road, the action was extremely slow. So, 8,000 elites were selected, and they traveled day and night, and attacked Xiangyang by surprise, in order to kill the new emperor Zhao Pu.
These 8,000 elites are all the elites of the Jin Army, and they are personally led by the fourth prince Jin Wushu. In order to achieve the effect of the surprise attack, there were only three people who knew about the surprise attack, Wu Qimai, Zong Han, and Xi Yin, the emperor of the Jin Kingdom.
The preparation of grain and grass, the selection of weapons, etc., were all carried out in secret, and the soldiers did not know where to go to fight until the eve of the battle, and did not know that this was to attack Xiangyang. And in order to conceal it, the 8,000 army disguised itself as bandits, or the Song army, marched in eight groups, and did not gather until the vicinity of Xiangyang.
This kind of concealment means caused the Jin army's surprise attack to be concealed and fast, and it was concealed from many intelligence organizations of the Song army, so that it was discovered only when it reached the vicinity of Xiangyang.
…………
Looking at the description on the intelligence, Zhao Pu finally understood the ins and outs of the matter.
For this surprise attack of the Jin Army, Zhao Pu admired it to the extreme, and almost succeeded, if it were not for the strong combat effectiveness of the Guards, if it were not for the solid ...... of the Martial Arts Academy The Jin army succeeded.
It's just a pity that it failed in the end.
"The Song Dynasty version of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty is interesting!" Zhao Pu smiled bitterly, he didn't expect Jin Jun to attach so much importance to him and look up to him like this, but the goal was finally achieved.
To make the enemy fearful, to be afraid, is also a means of letting the enemy be defeated.
The reason why Zhao Pu took the trouble to write letters to Wu Qimai, the emperor of the Jin State, and constantly analyzed the war situation between the Song and Jin dynasties, the comparison of the strength of the Song and Jin countries, etc., was not to kindly persuade you to make many mistakes and that you should correct them well, but to try to fight psychological warfare and crush the enemy psychologically.
A soldier who surrenders without a fight can also be called psychological warfare.
Wars, sometimes carefully prepared, end up being lost; And blindly attacking and sometimes winning. If you look at the history of the Song and Jin wars and the Song and Yuan wars, you will find that the problems existing in the Jin and Mongolia were many times more serious than those in the Song Dynasty, and in the end the Jin and Mongolia were still victorious.
From the analysis of data to the actual battlefield battle, there is often a world of difference.
No matter how clever the data analysis is, it can't calculate people's hearts, accidents, or changes in the battle situation. The so-called data analysis, the so-called temple calculation, there are many successful cases, but there are also many failed cases. Until the last moment of the end of the war, no one will know the development trend of the war situation, and the battlefield is unpredictable and ever-changing.
In many cases, the soldiers who surrender without a fight are frightened by the literal data, and draw conclusions from the literal data that they will be defeated, thus losing confidence in victory, so whether they are bound to defeat or not, they have become certain defeat.
For example, during the Korean War, according to the analysis of data, the conclusion was that North Korea would be defeated and China would be defeated; But China is not frightened by the data, or knows that it will be defeated, even miserable, and wants to fight for dignity. Just as someone asked, what if the Korean battlefield was defeated, Peng Dehuai said, it was just a few years late in the War of Liberation. At that time, most people believed that if the Korean War was defeated, it would only be a few more years of war against Japan.
The United States tried to use data to scare the Chinese and tried to surrender without a fight, but unfortunately failed.
And he tirelessly wrote letters to the Emperor of the Jin State and constantly analyzed the battle of Song and Jin, just to scare the Jin army through data.
And in fact, he succeeded.
Jin Jun was indeed frightened by him, and this surprise attack was the best performance.
