Walk through the cleared streets and step into the majestic palace. Deng She looked up and looked at the sky, the sun was warm and clear in the afternoon after the snow.

After a half-day street battle in the middle of the night, the recalcitrant Liaoyang army was either completely annihilated or surrendered. The original military order was to capture the priest for a living, and it was a secondary merit; But after Hu Zhong presented Guan Duo's head, Deng She gave him the first merit treatment under the pretext that he went deep into the tiger's den, Qing Qianxing and others immediately understood Deng She's intentions.

Mao Jujing, Zheng Sanbao, all the leading figures of Guan Duo's lineage, as long as they are above the general manager, whether they are reduced or not, they will all be cut. One by one, the heads are sent endlessly.

"Do you know why our army won?" Dunshe was in a good mood.

Ha Guangxiu flattered: "The general is clever, and he laid out the internal response a few months ago, how can our army not win?" ”

Deng She shook his head: "If it weren't for a coincidence, a little internal response wouldn't have much effect." ”

"Yes, yes." Ha Guangxiu agreed, touched his beard twice,—— the beard became thicker and thicker. He said: "Listening to what the general said, think about it carefully, it is indeed this reason, hehe, the last general thinks badly." Then, the reason for the victory of our army is that the generals are the first to strategize, and the second is that the generals are brave enough to kill the enemy. ”

Deng She shook his head again and said, "Naha used deception first, and coaxed Guan Pingzhang to be careless; Then 200,000 troops besieged the city, camped for hundreds of miles, and commanded Liu Tanma Chi and others, which could not be described as brave. If he is both wise and courageous, and his strength is far superior to mine, why was he defeated? ”

He Guangxiu scratched his head, Deng Sheti's question was reasonable, and he couldn't figure it out. After thinking about it for a long time, he suddenly realized and said: "The general has a mandate of heaven, and Naha is a dog Tartar, how can he be compared with the general?" ”

"Haha, Hugh is talking nonsense. It's not that I have a mandate of heaven, but my emperor Song and my lord have a mandate of heaven. Guan Duo betrayed the Lord, fornicated with the Tartars, and lost the support of the people; indiscriminately killed innocents, annexed tribes, and lost the morale of the army. This is the way of his defeat and the reason why our army won. ”

He Guangxiu, Yang Wanhu and others nodded again and again and said yes.

The palace is a pleasant sight, and the group follows the cobblestone path, winding through the snow-covered bamboo forest, to a pond. There are many plum trees planted on the shore, the shadows are sparse and slanted, and the dark fragrance floats. There is a rockery not far away, a pavilion on the mountain, Deng She came to be interested, and stepped up.

Climb high and look far away, heavy palaces, layers of pavilions.

Between the palace walls and the trees, from time to time there are soldiers with guns haunted, Bi Qianniu is leading them to search for the fallen Guan Duo guards and Guan Duo's treasure house, Guan Duo has been crisscrossing Liaodong for many years, burned the capital, and laid down many famous cities and cities, and the treasures obtained are innumerable.

King Xiao Ming crusaded against Emperor Yuan, and in the text released, there was a sentence that said: "Poor in the south of the Yangtze River, rich in the north." In addition to rewarding the Mongol kings in the north and giving relief to the Mongol herdsmen outside the Sai, the goods in the south of the Yangtze River were also transported to Shangdu and other places for storage, which also accounted for a large amount.

Deng She looked at it for a while and ordered: "After finding the treasure house, choose some good ones for the treasures inside, and I will give them away." Half was allocated to the baggage battalion, which was sold to supplement the army; and the rest shall be given to the generals; Half of it will be given to the meritorious soldiers. ”

With the presence of soldiers, he can get more possessions; If there are no soldiers, no matter how much money you have, what role can it play? It's just cheaper for nothing. Deng She deeply understands what he needs if he wants to gain a foothold in troubled times; He had no interest in these things.

Black eyes, white silver. He is not interested, it does not mean that others are not interested, everyone below Qing Qianxing bowed down and cheered and thanked.

Deng She smiled slightly, helped them up, and said, "Why bother? Liaoyang City, everyone worked together to fight down, and there was already a share of the things that were seized. General Yang was the first to rush into the city, and General Hu went deep into the dangerous place alone. ”

In all the wars, Yang Wanhu has won the most successes, enjoying the envious eyes of others, and he is complacent. Before joining the army, he worked as a coolie in the penal colony for a long time, and was trampled and scolded and ravaged by the soldiers every day.

"General, what about eunuchs and maidservants?" Bi Qianniu sent someone to come over and ask.

Following the man's finger, Deng She saw hundreds of eunuchs and maidservants, including Guan Duo's wives and concubines, trembling and standing outside the doors of several palaces. He frowned and said, "The eunuchs are full of troops, and the mines of the twin cities are not short of labor?" Charged. As for the handmaiden,...... Guys, go and choose? ”

rewarded the money, and then rewarded the beauty.

The blind man can also guess that Guan Duo's fancy and willing to be included in the palace, not to mention the beauty of Tianxiang and the country, is definitely the choice of thousands of people. What man isn't? Among the generals, Qing Qianxing is like this, and he also knows how to thank him; Those who were as anxious as Heguangxiu and Yang Wanhu turned their heads and ran under the pavilion.

Deng She didn't think it was strange and laughed heartily.

When the generals were far away, his laughter slowly stopped, and he withdrew his own soldiers, pacing alone. He defeated Liaoyang, is it really because he has received a lot of help from the Tao and has little help from the unjust? No, he said such words, but they were used to strengthen the confidence of the soldiers, establish themselves at the apex of morality, and pave the way for the next action. So, what's really going on? To put it mildly, he gambled. There are five reasons why he won.

First, the time of day.

Taking advantage of Guan Duo's blockade of the news and marching in the snow, for Guan Duo, he played the role of a surprise attack. At the same time, the heavy snow made it difficult for the rangers to travel back and forth, and for Shenyang and Quang Ninh, it delayed their time to hear the news.

Second, the location is favorable.

Deng Shexue attacked the city, ignoring the increasing situation of frostbite and frostbite and non-combat attrition, and not only did not cover it up, but deliberately sent people to exaggerate the number of frostbitten and frozen people, saying that his army could not hold on, so as to relax Guan Duo's vigilance. When the time is right, contact the inside line and launch the fatal blow.

Third, people.

When Naha went out to attack the city, there were more than 30,000 troops and horses in the city, which was far less than when Dunshe besieged the city. However, at that time, although Guan Duo was small, he was united. At that time, he was stable in the city, and there was the rescue of Mao Jujing and others outside the city. And this time, Guan Duo was unstable internally, and there were no external reinforcements.

Fourth, know the other.

Dunshe besieged the city on three sides, and attacked day and night. It was not long after Naha went out to attack the city, and Guan Duo's 30,000 descendants did not rest well, so he had no reserve army and could not defend such a large Liaoyang City. Deng She expected that sooner or later he would send miscellaneous cards to the city, and as long as the miscellaneous cards went to the city, the opportunity would come.

Fifth, confidant.

Looking at Deng She on the other hand, he quelled the Jurchen civil strife, killed the remnants of Qian Shide's party, and eliminated the unstable factors. Tens of thousands of military horses, just like one person. Although the Jurchen army and the Han soldiers did not run in enough, the siege was not as good as the field battle, and each fought its own city gate, and it did not need meticulous cooperation. How can you use it like an arm and a finger?

Combining these aspects, Deng She quickly broke the city with a small number of blows.

Having said that, it seems easy and easy, and I don't know how stressful he is these days. Nearly 100 freezes to death every day, and it hurts to watch. Before he came, he had carefully deduced, and if he couldn't defeat Liaoyang within ten days, he would have to withdraw. Why? Only those who freeze to death, the army cannot bear it.

The two concepts of freezing to death and dying in battle, the moment you die in battle, you freeze to death for a long time, and watching your comrades freeze to death alive, no one can stand it, and the military heart will be shaken.

Once the withdrawal is unsuccessful, the consequences are unimaginable. Guan Duo was prepared; What countermeasures will Nahachu and Pan Cheng make? If this situation really happens, it is not on the cusp of the storm, but on the road to death.

But he can't do it if he doesn't fight, he can't miss the opportunity, give Guan Duo time to breathe, and watch him digest the miscellaneous cards little by little. After the beginning of spring, Liaodong is still Liaodong. Not to mention that there is no similar good opportunity, who knows how Guan Duo will clean up Gaizhou and Shuangcheng? He is a flat chapter, he has prestige; Most importantly, he wouldn't watch Dun She sit big.

Take a risk and succeed.

The bamboo forest swayed, and the swirling wind, which rolled up fine-grained snow chips, blew over the head. In the depths of the palace, there was a loud and lively sound from afar. Deng She stopped, pressed his sword and looked into the distance, the generals were choosing their favorite maids. Yang Wanhu's loud voice was far away and could be heard clearly.

"Lao Tzu's head work! Who dares to rob Lao Tzu. ”

Ha Guangxiu muttered something, and the generals burst into laughter.

They are generals, and their duty is to fight; And Dunshe is the coach, and the responsibility lies with the overall situation. He chuckled softly, and gave up the idea of calling the generals at once, and gave them some time to be merry. Drunk and lying on the battlefield, how many people came back to fight in ancient times? He instructed: "Choose a few Guan Pingzhang's concubines, and send them to Pyongyang as soon as possible." ”

The bold pro-soldier said: "General Wen is a good match." ”

"Mess around! Guan Pingzhang's Yuan Pei ,...... "There is an example of Li Chenggui's wife in front, the past can be learned, you can't stay by your side, but you are not afraid of her poisoning, and Guan Duo, who surrendered to the province, has two ambitions." Deng She hesitated for a moment and said, "Send them to Pyongyang together, and tell General Wen not to touch her." After the lord is clear, then it will fall. The treasures and maids in the treasure house, Chen Hu, Zhao Guo, and Mr. Hong, also sent some each. ”

As he spoke, he strode down the gazebo, and stood for a long time, rather coldly.

"Where's the general?"

"The Governor's Mansion." But it was the last time he came to Liaoyang, the house that Guan Duo gave him.

"And in this palace?"

Deng She had a long meaning and said: "In Pingzhang Palace, there is naturally Pingzhang to live. He asked, "Zhao Timur, is there any news?" ”

"Nope." The pro-soldier was also strange, "Counting the days, I'm afraid it will be more than half a month since this guy went to Shenyang, right?" Isn't Mo dead? "The more you think about it, the more likely it is," Naha is a dog Tartar, and he is ruthless; Zhao Xiaosheng was in civil strife and was wiped out by the general in one fell swoop, maybe he was annoyed and angry, I can't say, I can't say. ”

"Is there any change in Shenyang?"

"General Chen came to report, and it was peaceful. The rangers who scattered out grabbed a few of Shenyang's fine works and beheaded them. ”

Deng She bowed his head and said, "Order, tell General Chen to come back." ”

At present, Shenyang is not in second place, and Naha is not afraid of losing his troops. The biggest trouble, in Guangning and Liaoxi, is how to appease Pan Cheng and Sha Liu Er. Not only do you appease them so that they don't rebuke them for rebellion, but you also have to make them accept them happily.

In this regard, according to the personalities of Pan and Liu, Deng She formulated two different corresponding strategies.

Back at the governor's mansion, he took out three documents that had been written long ago. The first letter is a text, which is listed in the city and transmitted to all parts of Liaodong. The text was sent before the war, but the reason why it was not sent was to ensure the secrecy of the raid. the second, a secret letter to Pan Cheng; The third is a secret letter to Sha Liu Er.

More than a dozen capable soldiers were selected, and Deng She explained them one by one, and the text was fine, and the secret letter must be sent to Pan and Liu. The pro-soldiers were ordered to come out.

Liaoyang is a big city, and there are a lot of things to do after conquering it. Deng She brought with the army many officials of the Twin Cities Governor's Office, and there were special personnel in charge of the household registration, maps, acres, and grain money in the city. Deng She didn't have to do it himself like he did when he played Twin Cities, and it was a lot easier.

He focused on the reorganization and surrender of the army.

As soon as Guan Duo died, more than 20,000 of his more than 30,000 descendants surrendered. There were more than 20,000 miscellaneous cards, almost no arrow, and all of them surrendered. A total of more than 40,000 troops were surrendered, all of whom were veterans, experienced, and not low in combat effectiveness, which could be described as the biggest gain. In addition, countless armors, weapons, and baggage were seized.

When there are many troops, we must guard against their rebellion.

As early as when entering the city, Deng She sent an order to transfer the Pyongyang reinforcements commanded by Zhao Guo to come over quickly and take on the responsibility of reorganizing the prisoners. Miscellaneous cards are more credible, picked the old departments of Hu Zhong and Liu Daqing, selected the elite, organized a battalion, and ordered to be commanded by Hu Zhong and Zuo Che'er; Assist in the defense of the city, and also take care of the soldiers.

Guan Duo recruited seven or eight thousand new soldiers, and Deng She did not have so many people to take care of them, so he simply disbanded them all, and those who were willing to join the army were reorganized; Those who do not want to join the army should be allowed to go home. The new pawn was originally forcibly conscripted into the army, and ninety percent chose to go home. As soon as they returned, it was passed down from mouth to mouth, and the people were all grateful to Dade, and the people's hearts were slightly stable.

Inadvertently, the sky gradually dimmed. After dealing with a few military and political emergencies, Deng She stretched.

Someone shouted outside the door, and Deng She asked, "Who is outside the door?" Before the words fell, a figure flashed in, and he fixed his eyes to look, but it was Bi Qianniu, "The search in the palace is over?" ”

"Back to the general, Lao Guan's treasure trove has been found, and it is full of three cellars. How do you describe it? General Qing said,...... Oh, yes! Dazzling, bejeweled. Oops, the villain really opened his eyes. Bi Qianniu was born in a poor family, Moti Baby, and he had never seen silver before, he sighed and said, "Has the general seen the colorful night pot?" Made of human heads, inlaid with colorful gemstones, look at it, dazzling eyesache. ”

This night pot, Deng She has heard of it.

After the death of the Song Dynasty, the monk Yang Lian Zhenjia robbed the emperor's mausoleum, one of which was the tomb of Emperor Lizong of the former Song Dynasty. Song Lizong was born with a big head, Yang Lian Zhenjia cut off his head, sent it to the Yuan Palace, presented it to Yuan Shizu, and made a night pot with his skull. Guan Duo captured Shangdu, and among the captives was a Mongol prince, who also cut off his head and made a night pot in order to show revenge.

Presumably, this is what Bi Qianniu said; But I don't know how to set it with colorful gemstones.

Dozens of pro-soldiers carried more than a dozen heavy boxes to the hall. When you open the lid, you will see gold, silver and precious stones, including coral trees several feet high, crystal plates that are lustrous and lovely, pillows with hollow and inlaid treasures, and robes made of gold thread. Bi Qianniu deliberately checked out the night pot and invited him to watch it.

Deng She glanced at it, he was not interested, and he was dazzled by it, and his heart moved. He waved his hand and said, "Just move out." ”

"The villain specially invited connoisseurs, the most famous jewel merchants in the city, to select these. The rest, in accordance with the general's orders, were supervised by General Qing and distributed to the generals and soldiers. ”

Deng She couldn't help but be taken aback and asked, "It's divided, and there are so many?" ”

"There are more than a dozen boxes outside the hall."

Dunshe was speechless for a while. Living in the palace, hiding treasures, sitting and lying with hundreds of eunuchs and maids, and dozens of young and beautiful concubines and maids to accompany him, Guan Duo may have only just started the army, and he also had the ambition to take the world as his own responsibility, but the luxurious and wealthy life, I am afraid that he has already corroded him and changed his quality.

It is easy to go from thrift to luxury, and it is difficult to go from luxury to thrift.

Deng She sighed with emotion, waved his hand, and ordered his soldiers to carry all the boxes away. Bi Qianniu remembered the matter and said, "Report to the general." The people the general asked for, and they were found,...... Not only did I find it, but I found one more. ”

"Oh? Bring it quickly. ”

If you want to win the military heart of the Guan Duo lineage in a short period of time, you have to use a few generals of the Guan Duo lineage. With those who don't know the roots, Deng She is not at ease; The only choice is only Xu Ren, Li Jing and others who have some friendships. Yao Haogu made friends with Fang Buzhen, Guan Duo died, what did Yao Haogu think? If you want to be Yao Haogu, you have to be a lobbyist.

Xu Ren, Li Jing, Fang Buzhen and others rushed in.

Deng She got up with a smile, walked down the hall quickly to greet him, and looked at everyone's faces, all of them with unkempt hair. Fang Buzhen is a scholar, with no power to bind the chicken, and after the city is broken, he hides in a ruined temple, covered with muddy water and cobwebs, and is embarrassed. The most miserable Li Jing, Song Ju, who suffered from civil strife, raised a sword, and the two of them supported him, and he couldn't walk.

"Take a look." Deng She took Li Jing with his own hands and helped him to lie down on the soft couch in the hall.

This soft couch is where Deng She sits by himself. Li Jing excused himself in fear, stammered, and didn't know what to say. Dunshe stopped him with a smile, and despite the blood, he pulled back his coat and examined his wounds. Song Ju's sword was too late to be aligned, and Li Jing was protected by armor, so he missed the vital point. Deng She asked, "Did the doctor see it?" ”

Bi Qianniu replied: "I have seen it." General Li is lucky, but he has lost too much blood, and if he takes more time, he will get better. ”

Deng She nodded, patted Li Jing's arm comfortingly, and turned to everyone in the hall. Xu Ren and Fang Buzhen didn't sit down, and behind the two of them, there was an extra one, surnamed Li Mingdunru, Bi Qianniu searched the inner palace, saw him, and brought it by the way. Deng She's gaze lingered slightly on him, and it flashed.

He said: "You are all old people, so I will not say polite words, but speak directly." ”

"The general of the defeated army is not brave enough. The general has something to say, but please say it directly. Xu Ren replied nervously.

"General Xu, General Li, you two and I have a friendship of fighting side by side. If it weren't for General Xu's subordinates Liu Yang and Liu Qianhu, I wouldn't have been able to break Gaizhou, and I have never forgotten this friendship. Lord Fang, we don't have much to do with each other in the Twin Cities; Later, I came to Liaoyang, young, I don't know etiquette, many places, thanks to Lord Fang's reminder, this friendship, I have never forgotten. ”

"Don't dare." Xu Ren, Li Jing, and Fang Buzhen bowed down and thanked him.

"You all have kindness to me, and I have no chance to repay my hardships. Today, there is still one thing to ask for. After speaking, Deng She leaned forward and waited for the answers of several people.

"General, please speak, but if there is something to do, I will do my best."

"Liaoyang Xinding, you are all great talents, if you are willing, I will wait for the vacant position."

Xu Ren and the others glanced at each other, Fang Buzhen hesitated for a moment, but soon, at the same time, Li Jing also struggled to get up. Several people said in unison: "The villain is only shallow in learning, and he can't afford to be praised by the general." Since General Meng will not give up, he is willing to serve the general. ”

Deng She was overjoyed and helped them up one by one.
