Chapter 795: Persuasion
On the sand table, there are more and more small flags with the word "Qin" planted in the cities around Yecheng.
Wenyang took Shexian, Wushi, Wu'an and other cities, and was marching into Xiangguo, Mengyu attacked Wei County, and could not attack for a long time, so he went south to seize Fanyang, Neihuang and other cities, and marched to Liyang.
Xiangguo and Liyang are both important towns, and Sima Yan is strictly guarded and is not under the original court.
South of the Yellow River, Wang Jun and Wang Hun attacked and defended in Dongping.
The situation is at a stalemate.
"Is there any news from Marlon?" Yang Zheng looked at Dai Jun.
Zhao Aqi arched his hand and said: "Your Majesty, Ma Dudu led 30,000 elite cavalry, and did not march from Daijun, but went north through Yin Mountain, and I don't know where to go at present." ”
"No news is good news."
Ma Long's level of military use is the top in this era, and he either doesn't make a move, or he will kill the enemy if he makes a move.
In today's situation, it's up to who gets it wrong first.
The Qin army was already invincible.
The Jin army is strictly defended, but it will be lost if it is defended for a long time, and as long as a gap is opened in one place, it will form a global rout.
Two days later, 20,000 pieces of Menghuo oil were delivered, which were urgently produced by Daxing Workshop.
Due to the urgency of the timing, there was also an accident in the workshop, which caused a fire, but fortunately the patrolling forbidden troops arrived, and there were no major casualties, but the workshop was half burned......
Fan Tiefu pleaded guilty.
But Jin Yiwei's secret performance was caused by the secret sabotage of the fine work.
As for where it is, it is still under investigation.
Prince Yang Xu suggested that the workshop be moved to a small town outside Daxing, first, for secrecy and second, for safety.
Yang Zheng agreed, and replied to him that he could make his own decisions about this kind of thing in the future, and he didn't have to go to the table, and he came and went to delay time.
The crown prince is in charge of the country, and he has the right to deal with major affairs in the country.
With Menghuo Oil in hand, Qin Jun's chances of victory are greater.
Yang Zheng asked the craftsmen of the army to step up the creation of various siege equipment.
Rushing cars, ladders, nest cars, trench bridges, Linchong and so on.
Catapults and Thunderbolts increased to a thousand.
The entire Qin army camp is like a huge construction site, and the soldiers assist the craftsmen to build it.
However, as time went by, autumn went to the winter solstice, and a heavy snow was sprinkled all over the land of Hebei, covering the red battlefield, and the northern and southern camps were covered in silver, and the breath of war was obscured.
This kind of weather was conducive to defense and not conducive to attack, and the offensive battles in various places were temporarily suspended.
Yang Zheng simply killed cattle and sheep to reward the soldiers.
Winter clothes and spirits from the rear were continuously delivered, maintaining the morale of the Qin army.
Two meals a day, Yang Zheng ate and drank like ordinary soldiers, calming the soldiers' emotions, "The world will be decided after this battle is fought, and you don't have this kind of opportunity if you want to fight in the future!" ”
"Haha, I can fight for Your Majesty and die without complaint." A forty or fifty-year-old tun chief said with a smile, his temples were already frost white, and the wrinkles on his face were stacked into furrows.
I have seen a lot of death, and my eyes are a little vicissitudes.
"I want you to live, full of children and grandchildren, eat fragrant and drink spicy." Yang Zheng poured a sip of spirits.
A warmth rose from the abdomen, and the whole body was warm.
"Your Majesty, the villain remembers." Tun Chang's face suddenly changed.
More young soldiers are looking forward to supporting their parents after this war, marrying a few more wives and concubines, having a bunch of children, and then farming and living in peace.
Wishes are more simple than the other.
There is nothing to become a general, a rich man or anything like that.
But in these war-torn times, such a simple wish is sometimes difficult.
"There will be such a day." Yang Zheng said solemnly.
In the army, there are also programs of the Xuanyi Division, storytelling, operas, etc., to write letters to the soldiers.
The camp was in full swing, and there were often laughter and laughter fluttering in the wind and snow.
However, the Jin army on the opposite side was a little gloomy.
Hundreds of thousands of troops need not only food, but also winter clothing, dry firewood, and so on.
The colder the weather, the greater the consumption.
The Qin army was riveted enough to barely be supplied, let alone the Jin army.
Every day, the Jin army could be seen throwing frozen corpses out of the barracks.
Yang Zheng asked Liu Heng to take the gong and drummer to persuade him to surrender.
In such cold weather, the Jin army was not even interested in sending troops to drive it away.
"Brother of the Jin army, listen, the Sima family is a grasshopper after the autumn, it won't be able to stumble for a few days, the world will belong to my Daqin, and the past who surrendered to Cheng is not to blame, one person has thirty acres of fertile land, if he can kill the Jin army general, according to the size of the official rank, the tun is one hundred acres of land, two hundred captains, three hundred school captains, and five hundred generals! The greater the ruler, the greater the reward! ”
There was a loud scolding on the other side, followed by a rain of loose arrows, which lazily fell in front of Liu Heng.
Liu Heng's voice was louder, "Brothers, it's not worth it to accompany the funeral of the Sima family, how many evils has the Sima family done?" Think of your parents, your wives and children, if you die in battle, how will they live? ”
This time, there was a sudden silence on the other side.
What did the Sima family do, it was already said by the storyteller that it was rotten.
As long as you have ears, you will always hear some.
But soon someone shouted, "Hugh listens to his nonsense, Your Majesty is the king of benevolence and righteousness, and the Qin thief is tyrannical and unreasonable, you will surrender and die without a place to be buried!" ”
Liu Heng here scolded directly, "Rats, how the Sima family got it is known to everyone in the world, there is a kind of newspaper to be famous, grandpa has leveled Yecheng, and then go to kill your whole family!" ”
Yang Zheng, who was in the back, smiled bitterly, this guy is really lacking in heart, others just said "tyrannical and unreasonable", you are going to kill the whole family, don't you don't confess?
The other side seemed to be a little frightened, and did not say anything more.
Liu Heng beat the gong and drum for a while and then retreated.
I kept doing it for the next few days.
Yang Zheng didn't have much hope, ordinary soldiers don't have such a strong sense of right and wrong, they don't even have a view of the country, only their own family and hometown, which is why the scholars in this era are so strong.
】
However, on the evening of the fourth day, the Jin army began to have soldiers surrendering one after another.
At first, it was a few people, a dozen people.
Then there were hundreds.
For three days in a row, nearly 1,500 people surrendered.
An army of hundreds of thousands, fifteen hundred may be insignificant.
But it's a very good start.
These people also brought all kinds of inside information about the Jin army.
As Yang Zheng expected, the Jin army was not short of food, but lacked winter clothes, and relied on firewood for heating, but the logistics of the Jin army could not support the needs of the front line, and more and more people in the Jin army were frostbitten and frozen.
In addition, the layout of several camps in front of the Jin army, the selection of generals, morale, etc., were all discovered by the Qin army.
It's only December, and it's not yet the coldest "Sanjiu".
According to this trend, the Jin army may not be able to hold on.
Yang Zheng ordered the surrendered Jin army to also join Liu Heng's gong and drum team, and beat gongs and drums in front of the battle every day.
Even eating and drinking were in full view of the Jin army.
But nothing happened that night, and there used to be at least dozens or hundreds of people every night, but now there is no one.
Yang Zheng couldn't help but be depressed, could it be that the Jin army had a way to boost morale?
But the next day, the scouts inquired, only to find that there was no one in the front camp......
The Jin army retreated three miles back and retreated to the second line of defense.
