Chapter 235: Stratagem

The ancestor attacked several times in a row, but he didn't get a bargain.

The ancestor was broken in his heart.

If you continue to be entangled like this, when the army of King Qin arrives in various places, it will be attacked inside and outside, and the army of the ancestor may be in danger of being eaten.

Therefore, the ancestor thought twice and decided to change his strategy, he stopped the army and ceased the war, sent envoys into the city, and wanted to negotiate with the imperial court.

There are also few main forces in the city and many miscellaneous armies, if it really goes on like this, I am afraid that which city gate will be lost and attacked by these large armies, it will be chaotic.

Just like the five hundred eunuchs, in order to compete for merit, the firearms battalion suffered heavy losses.

Lord Yu thought about it again and again, and felt that he would delay time with the ancestor first.

Even for a day, the number of troops in the city will be increased, because foreign troops will come one after another.

In the two days of the armistice, Lord Yu made some adjustments to the deployment in the city, making the city gates stronger.

During the two days of the armistice, there was an undercurrent in the palace, and something happened.

Needless to say, Wu is still sending people around for only one purpose, that is, to try her best to ensure that her son sits on the throne. Let's not talk about her.

For Empress Qian, she is a woman, and her husband is now in the hands of the enemy.

She cried all day long for her man, as if she was missing the backbone of her heart.

Hearing that the two sides were in a truce, she sent a eunuch to negotiate with the ancestor in private, hoping that he would release the emperor and Brother Zhen.

The ancestor inadvertently got such a sum of money, and he was overjoyed, and he was shocked to kill the emperor again, and he was shaken in his heart.

How can there be immortals in war?

His brother's death was not ordered by the emperor to be killed.

So he told the envoy of the queen Qian that the money was less.

In order to perfunctory the Qian family, the ancestor said that he was not in a hurry, and gave the Qian family time to raise funds, and as soon as the money arrived, he immediately released him.

Here Qian wants to save her husband, it is all her personal behavior. She neither consulted with the Queen Mother nor with Guanya.

The ancestor accepted her money, but people didn't let it go, and she was reminded by the people around her to know that she had fallen for the master!

The ancestor sent an envoy to the court to start talking about letting them ransom people with silver, and the place of negotiation was placed in the grandfather's big tent outside the city gate.

Brother Emperor Yu presided over the court meeting, and the results of the discussion in the meeting were very clear, the ancestor did not have good intentions, even if he gave him silver, he may not have let go of Brother Zhen of the emperor, not to mention that he also opened his mouth.

Is the ancestor really so big in appetite?

It has to be said here that Queen Qian boosted his prestige and made him open his mouth.

The ancestor looked at the gold and silver jewelry, pearl agate, jade and all kinds of treasures owned by the Qian family sent by the queen Qian, and the ancestor thought in his heart.

This palace is anxious now, the queen has begun to show her own body, so the queen Qian will definitely put pressure on the courtiers in the court.

The first master regarded the force used by Lord Yu and the soldiers defending the city as a bargaining chip to negotiate with him, and the first master thought, anyway, the emperor Zhen Brother is in his hands, he is not afraid.

It is with such an attitude that the ancestor will open his mouth.

The master's abacus was to take the emperor Zhenge as a hostage and slowly knock the silver of the court.

In his imagination, he regarded the imperial court as his private treasury.

Now it's mainly about who can stand it.

But what the ancestor didn't expect was that the negotiator sent by the imperial court was a small official with a big sesame seed.

They only said that they would discuss it when they went back.

The eunuch Xiye beside Brother Zhen reminded the ancestor that their official position was too small, and they didn't talk much, if the guess was correct, this should be Lord Yu's delaying tactic.

The ancestor sent an envoy in and asked Brother Yu to send Lord Yu and several other important ministers to negotiate with him.

His request was decisively rejected by Lord Yu.

The imperial court really used a delaying tactic.

The ancestor was furious, so he decided to attack the northern capital again the next day.

This time, the ancestor learned wisely, and he planned to take the emperor Zhen from the guard and march to the city gate.

Now, the ancestor wants to concentrate all the men and horses to attack a city gate, and he feels that with the emperor Brother Zhen as a shield, he is not afraid of anything.

The poisonous plan of the ancestor is known to both the adults and Ma Ya.

They were worried that if the ancestor was restrained, it was possible that the north would not be protected, and the 100,000 cavalry of the ancestor was not a joke.

The two teams of Gongru Villa in the northern capital, plus the people and horses organized by Guanya, are relatively powerful.

However, the prisoner death squad and the men and horses of Gongru Villa have different degrees of attrition, and the war is a war of attrition.

The prisoner death squad no longer has such brave men to add, what should I do?

While Ma Ya was worried about the life of the emperor Zhenge, Ma Ya was more worried about the survival of the northern capital.

Ma Ya really has no other way than to urge the owner of Gongru Mountain Villa to let the Jianghu characters who have entered the city one after another outside go out to step up the protection of the emperor Zhenge.

How do these people protect Brother Zhen?

That is to constantly put pressure on the ancestor, as long as the ancestor does not kill the emperor and Brother Zhen, it is easy to say anything.

Their new plan is to send some people deep into the grassland to touch the old nest of the ancestors.

Since they wandered the rivers and lakes, they naturally made some friends outside, and they went, and brought some heavy gifts, so it was no problem to stay with their friends.

Don't look at the fact that there are only dozens of characters in the rivers and lakes who go deep into the hinterland of the grassland, but they are all top martial arts masters, and they are placed around the wife and concubine of the ancestor to threaten the master.

Once he dares to kill the emperor's brother, then his family will not want to live.

When the people of Gongru Villa sent the news to the ancestor through the internal channels of the ancestor, the ancestor had no temper.

As a big gang of rivers and lakes, they don't ask the ancestor to release the emperor Zhenge, such a request is too much, and the ancestor will not agree.

But they demanded that the ancestor could not kill the emperor and that the life of the emperor's brother Zhen should be guaranteed.

This point made the ancestor dare not be careless, which is equivalent to the people of Gongru Villa also pinching his weakness.

Now, the ancestor took the emperor Zhen with him, he wanted to see if he dared to let go of the firearms of the imperial army, and the archers on the city wall.

Mr. Yu urgently consulted with Ma Ya.

The reason why Lord Yu decided to open fire was that if the soldiers defending the city saw the emperor Zhenge, they might be afraid of war, and they were worried that once they killed the emperor Zhenge by mistake, the crime would not be as simple as killing the head, and the nine clans would have to be executed by capital punishment!

Lord Yu felt that since Gongru Villa had made certain arrangements, the ancestor would definitely put Brother Zhen, the emperor, by his side.

In other words, the army led by the ancestor will definitely not have the emperor and the ancestor in the vanguard army.

If they are allowed to walk in, and wait until the ancestor and the emperor appear, then it will be a big problem.

Lord Yu's opinion is that the artillery should be fired first, and the artillery will be fired for a while, and the battlefield will be filled with smoke and miasma, so that the soldiers on the city tower will not be able to see the situation below, nor will they be able to recognize the emperor.

In this way, the grandfather's plan to use the emperor's brother Zhen as a shield will be frustrated.

Lord Yu decided to fight with the ancestor outside the city gate, he couldn't blindly cringe, and in the melee, the ancestor wanted to use the emperor as a shield, it was completely impossible, if it was at the beginning, just like the two generals, they led the death squad to rush to kill, maybe they could save the emperor and Brother Zhen.

Ma Ya felt that Lord Yu's plan was good, and he couldn't let the ancestors' army move forward.

So the vanguard of the ancestor did not ask about 3721, a fierce artillery fire, in an instant the ancestor of the team was chaotic, the wind and sand raised by the horse's hooves, coupled with the smoke of the artillery fire, where can you see who is who.

Grandpa, he's afraid of being blown up.

Besides, the dozens of Jianghu masters sent out by Gongru Villa have already set off and are on their way to his lair.

Among them, there are many martial arts masters who have taken the head of the general among the armies.

No matter how tightly his lair is defended, it is still difficult for these Jianghu characters.

They are also good at night movements, which is really unpredictable.

In a word, don't offend the first gang in the rivers and lakes if you offend anyone, the wife and concubines of the ancestor in the backyard can hide from the first day of junior high school but not from the fifth day of junior high school. They are numerous and ubiquitous.

Therefore, the ancestor has to ensure the safety of the emperor's brother Zhen.

Even if the emperor's brother Zhen was accidentally killed by the artillery fire on the city tower, they would be counted on the head of the ancestor.

So the ancestor felt that this plan had failed.

The ancestor asked the emperor to still be detained in the camp at the back.

Since the imperial army went out of the city to fight, then fight.

The two sides of this melee invested more than an hour, and Lord Yu on the city tower suddenly made people withdraw their troops.

The imperial court is now not going to fight with the army of the ancestors, but to defend the northern capital.

In the past two or three days, there have been nearby armies entering the city, and the ranks of the imperial court are gradually increasing, and there will be continuous arrival of King Qin's troops in the future, so there is no need to fight with the ancestors.

In the evening of that day, Ma Ya was patrolling the castle tower, and there were many houses outside the city, because when the ancestors' army came in, the common people closed the doors and locked them, and they all went into the city to stay in order to avoid the war.

Ma Ya discussed with Lord Yu that the ancestor would definitely come to Gongcheng the next day.

They can't cower in the city now, so that if the ancestor and the emperor's brother get closer, it will make the soldiers afraid.

Ma Ya felt that it was better to take advantage of the night to send a large number of soldiers wearing the clothes of the common people and ambush them in the homes of the common people.

Lord Yu thought about it, and discussed it with the generals, they felt that although Ma Ya's method was risky, it might as well give it a try.

The army of the ancestors came and went more than once, and they already knew that there was no one in the people's homes, and the locks on some courtyard doors were picked, and nothing of value was found inside. They won't go inside again.

In other words, ambushing a group of infantry archers still has a certain effect.

So Lord Yu sent two thousand archers, led by the owner of the house, with bows and arrows and other weapons, to sneak in and hide in the dark night.

This is a crucial war, since the troops of both sides are deployed in one place, and they will fight to the death, the ancestor is confident in this.

After all, the steppe cavalry still has an advantage over these temporary guard troops of the imperial court.

Brother Zhen led an army of more than 200,000 people, all of whom could be wiped out by the ancestors, is the ancestor still afraid of these people? !

Lord Yu was studying how to fight with the generals, and finally adopted the suggestion that Ma Ya had people hand over, that is, to increase the number of prisoner death squads.

Here's how to do it.

Isn't the ancestor's army afraid of ragged death squads, then there are still more than 500 people in the prisoner death squad, and in yesterday's battle, they were not willing to let them go, Ma Ya suggested that Lord Yu select some physically strong soldiers from the army, wearing tattered clothes, and acting as prisoner death squads.

Ma Ya's opinion is that they should not show their faces first, and once the two armies are in front of the formation and are about to start a battle, then let the neatly dressed army in front retreat and show this prisoner death squad.

The number of people in this team should not be too much, Ma Ya thinks that 2,000 people is enough, which is more realistic.

If there are many people, it is easy to be recognized by the other party.

Among the 2,000 people, Ma Ya knew that the more than 500 people would definitely be like the prisoners who died in the battle before, and they would definitely fight to the death.

Why?

The reason given by Ma Ya is that the vast majority of them are poor, and almost all of them have the experience of fleeing the famine to ask for food. In a famine year, if the land is plagued and does not grow, what will the crops take?

Now that they have committed their crimes, the court has made them meritorious atonements. What they think is that they still have money to kill the enemy, and as long as they fight to kill the enemy, their children and parents will not have to flee the famine to ask for food in the famine.

They are all iron-clad men, for the sake of their parents, children and brothers, what is death for them? They used their death to correct their reputation, and they can also let their parents and children live a good life in the future, and they feel that it is cost-effective.

Now just with Sister Hua, they have earned a lot of silver taels, as well as the reward from the imperial court.

In addition to the pension after death, there are also preferential policies in the local area, such as reducing or exempting their family's taxes and labor, and other good things, why don't they do it?

The other soldiers didn't have the bounty from Sister Hua, only they did. Can they not cherish it?!

In other words, on the battlefield, these more than 500 people will definitely rush to the front, and their tiger descending momentum will definitely make the opponent's soldiers shudder.

The Ancestor's army already called these people beasts.

Of course, they are just such a few people, and it is impossible to shake the entire army of the ancestors, but when they go to the battlefield, they can at least shock the other party's soldiers and cheer up their own soldiers.

As mentioned earlier, morale in war is very important, and many wars are won by relying on morale.

For the strategic deployment, these two thousand people fought out, and on either side of them, two large armies led by the second general Hum Ha attacked at the same time.

This is a certain deterrent to deal with the army of the ancestors.

For this war, General Ha has several more strategists around him.

This time, the 5,000 soldiers led by General Kazakh used different methods.

One of the charlatans told General Ha that according to his observations, there would be a wind tomorrow.

To put it bluntly, that is, the ancestors are against the wind, they have a tailwind, and the Jianghu strategists said that this is a rare opportunity to kill the enemy, and they can't miss it.

How to do it specifically, and see how to break it down.
