Chapter 651 Soldiers, Sophistry
Looking at his own soldiers, they fell off the city wall one after another.
Lin Daiyu's little face couldn't help but turn slightly pale.
This kind of battle is really tragic, and it is almost like going to die.
Turning his head to look at Jia Cong on the side, he saw that his face was calm and calm, without the slightest discoloration.
Looking at the few people around him, he still couldn't help but whisper: "Dashuai, is the loss too big to attack the city like this, it seems that it can't be attacked like this, aren't these people dying in vain."
Jia Cong withdrew his gaze from the battlefield and sighed softly.
"Once you will succeed, how can there be immortals in a war, this is just a temptation, and you will have to do it every day in the future, if you can't accept it, I'll let Qingwen send you back to Liaoyang."
Lin Daiyu shook her head: "No, if I don't go back, I'm just worried that I won't be able to take Shenyang if I go on like this."
Jia Cong smiled: "Don't worry, I already have a plan, but in the first few days, I have to give them some confidence, paralyze them, and make them feel that we can't attack Shenyang, and when they relax, it's time for me to really make a move."
Lin Daiyu smiled, "You want to use intrigues against them again?"
Jia Cong nodded: "Soldiers, treacherous ways, so they can show what they can't, use it and show it without it, show it near and show it far, and show it near and far away. Profit and temptation, chaos and take, real and prepared, strong and avoid, angry and scratch, humble and arrogant, hard work, kiss and leave. Attack them unprepared, and take them by surprise."
The death battalion stormed several more times, and finally returned in vain.
Jia Cong withdrew them, changed another battalion of men and horses, and continued to attack.
All kinds of siege equipment were pushed up, and from time to time there was a round of artillery bombardment, and the battlefield was very fierce.
It was not until the evening that Jia Cong ordered the troops to be collected and returned to the camp.
By the next day, the battle continued.
In the next few days, every day, the fighting on both sides was fierce, and the casualties were relatively heavy.
However, there has been no substantial progress.
As a result, both sides are caught in a refueling war.
······
Shenjing City, Imperial Palace, Imperial Study.
The emperor put down the fold in his hand and looked up at Wang Bao.
"Jia Cong's army has rushed to the city of Shenyang, I don't know if there is a fight now, do you have any information about that side in the past two days?"
Wang Bao arched his hand and said: "Back to Your Majesty, the embroidered guards just came with news in the morning, on the first day of April, the king of Liaodong launched a siege battle, and the king of Liaodong forcibly attacked the city for several days, but all of them returned in vain, and there were heavy casualties, and the battle situation was not ideal."
After hearing this, the emperor couldn't help frowning.
In his eyes, Jia Cong has always been invincible and invincible.
Suddenly hearing such a result, I felt very uncomfortable.
There was even some worry in his heart that Jia Cong would suffer a defeat, and he would be driven out of Liaodong by the barbarians again.
However, he can only wait now, and he has no strength at all.
"Inform the embroidered guards in Liaodong and let them send the war report back in time every day, and I want to know the battle situation in Liaodong as soon as possible. In addition, I will go and find Li Aiqing, the secretary of the Ministry of War, and then a few ministers of the cabinet, and I will inquire about something."
"Minions obey."
Wang Bao agreed, and then withdrew from the imperial study.
After about a cup of tea, Hu Yong, Li Rong, Li Guanglu and others hurried over.
"Your Majesty, long live my emperor, long live, long live."
The emperor waved his hand: "You Aiqing is flat."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
After the salute, each of them stood up.
The emperor looked at Li Guanglu: "Li Aiqing, have you ever understood the battle situation in Liaodong?" I heard that Jia Aiqing was blocked by the barbarians under the city of Shenyang, and the battle situation was very unfavorable, what can you do about it?"
Li Guanglu arched his hand: "Back to Your Majesty, the secret agents of the Ministry of War have also sent back the news of the Battle of Shenyang, which is indeed as Your Majesty did
It is said that the battle situation in Shenyang was very unfavorable, and the king of Liaodong fought fiercely for several days in a row, but there were no obvious results, but considerable losses.
I heard that the barbarians have an army of 200,000 to defend the city, and it is really a bit difficult to capture Shenyang with the army of the king of Liaodong, and the old minister is not very optimistic about this battle."
Hu Yong also said: "I didn't expect that the barbarians would send an army of 200,000, and this battle is really not easy to fight. If we lose, the loss will be too great, and I'm afraid that even the defense will be a little weak."
The emperor sighed: "In the past, seeing that Jia Aiqing won easily, I thought about urging him to take Shenyang back as soon as possible, but I was too anxious. How do we deal with this situation?"
Several people glanced at each other, and there was no good way.
It was Li Guanglu who opened his mouth and said: "Back to Your Majesty, in this situation, we have no good way, we can only rely on the King of Liaodong himself, with the combat experience of the King of Liaodong, even if we can't win, we should be able to retreat safely."
Li Rong said: "The king of Liaodong has never fought uncertain battles, since he has decided to fight, he should not lose, we must believe in his ability."
Hearing him say this, thinking of Jia Cong's achievements, the emperor also had a glimmer of hope in his heart.
"I also hope so, inform the intelligence officers in Liaodong, and send the battle situation over there back at any time, and I will know the battle report every day."
"Your Ministers obey."
······
Liaodong, in the city of Shenyang.
Because this decisive battle is related to the survival of the clan, Amin personally came to Shenyang to take charge.
As of today, the two sides have been fighting for seven days in a row.
Jia Cong's army has already suffered 20,000 or 30,000 casualties, while his own side has only suffered more than 10,000 casualties.
If he continues to fight like this, Jia Cong will definitely be defeated.
Thinking of the stakes of this big battle, Amin couldn't help but feel a burst of excitement in his heart.
Jia Cong's earth-shattering thunder and artillery, Amin has long been hot.
It's a pity that Jia Cong didn't leak it at all, and he didn't have anything to do.
If this battle is won, with artillery and earth-shattering thunder, coupled with the strength of the Mongolian side, under his own leadership, it will no longer be a dream to set foot on the Central Plains and dominate the world.
Since Jia Cong has agreed and will no longer meddle in the affairs of the Central Plains, I believe that he will be able to do what he says.
This guy doesn't seem to have much ambition, if he had changed himself and had his strength, he would have rebelled a long time ago.
It's really rare that he can endure it all the time.
It's a pity that such a person can't stay and help himself.
Thinking of this, I also sighed a little more in my heart.
The emperor of the Central Plains is really too mindless and too intolerant.
At this time, the generals walked in one after another.
"The last general will see the Great Khan."
Amin waved his hand, "Generals flat."
"Xie Da Khan."
The generals stood up one after another.
"Great Khan, if this continues, our army will win."
"Yes, Jia Cong is not a big deal, it seems that it was a bit exaggerated before."
"Jia Cong is counting on artillery attacks, and now that we are in the city, the power of artillery can no longer threaten us, and Jia Cong's skills are exhausted."
"Indeed, once the artillery loses its deterrent power, our army's combat power is higher than that of the other side, and victory is just around the corner."
"In this way, the role of this cannon is just like that, with the protection of the city walls, the cannon is of little use."
"Congratulations to the Great Khan, congratulations to the Great Khan, as long as we win this battle and win the bet, our clan will enter the Central Plains and dominate the world, just around the corner."
"Congratulations to the Great Khan, congratulations to the Great Khan, entering the Central Plains, just around the corner."
When Amin heard this, he couldn't help but laugh.
"Rejoice and rejoice, if there really is that day, all the generals will be the founding heroes, and they will no longer be crowned marquis
It's a dream. However, Jia Cong is sinister and cunning, and we can't be too careless, and the future war will depend on the generals."
"Great Khan rest assured, through these days of great battles, our numbers have already taken advantage, no matter how capable Jia Cong is, it is impossible to attack Shenyang, this battle, we will win."
For the current battle situation, everyone is full of confidence.
The fear of artillery has also disappeared.
One by one, they looked excited, as if they had seen the dawn of victory.
······
Outside Shenyang, in Jia Cong's Chinese army tent.
All the generals gathered here, frowning one by one.
"Dashuai, if we continue to fight like this, we won't be able to take Shenyang at all, and the final result can only be a big defeat."
"Yes, Dashuai, we can't fight like this anymore, if the loss is too great, we don't even have the strength to protect ourselves, in case the barbarians pour out, we only have one way to lose, and I hope Dashuai thinks twice."
"In this situation, we really can't fight anymore, we have to change our strategy."
"Isn't there still more than 100,000 horses in our rear, it's better to transfer them together, it's always a good thing to have more people."
"Dashuai, do you have a good plan to break the city, it really can't be fought like this anymore, once defeated, the court will definitely hold us accountable, and please make a decision as soon as possible."
Shi Nai was also a little anxious, and also stood up to persuade.
"Ahem, ahem."
Jia Cong coughed lightly twice, attracting everyone's attention.
"Generals, siege warfare is like this, if you want to recapture the city, you must take your life to fill it, Shenyang City has thick walls, it is easier to defend and difficult to attack, if you want to capture Shenyang, it is not an easy task.
Back then, the barbarians attacked Shenyang several times, but the results were all in vain, which also shows the difficulty of attacking Shenyang City. The imperial court urged Ben Shuai to send troops, but Ben Shuai had no choice, it had been delayed for a year, and the court would not be happy if it dragged on any longer."
Shi Nai said with a worried face: "Dashuai, we all know about this, but if we continue to fight like this, something will really happen."
"Alright."
Jia Cong stopped everyone with his words.
"Ben Shuai already has a new plan, since Ben Shuai has sent troops, it is impossible to give up halfway, Ben Shuai has said, Ben Shuai never fights uncertain battles. Since it was decided to fight, everything was naturally planned.
Now everyone go back and have a good rest, tomorrow morning, the third watch will make food, the fifth watch will send troops, the whole army will attack, the decisive battle of Shenyang, the three sides will attack the city together, success or failure in one fell swoop, if you don't take Shenyang, you will not give up."
When the generals heard this, they couldn't help but be stunned.
This is the decisive battle, do you want to be so childish?
There has to be a plan for this, right?
However, seeing Jia Cong's unquestionable expression, everyone could only obey orders.
"Obey the orders of the commander."
Jia Cong waved his hand: "Ben Shuai knows that you are all confused, but the more people who know about the plan, the smaller the chance of success, I believe you all understand this, carry out the order."
"Subordinates obey."
Hearing Jia Cong say this, everyone also understood.
Jia Cong must have had other plans, but he kept them from everyone all the time, just like in the previous battles.
However, everyone also breathed a sigh of relief and left one after another.
In the big tent, there were only a few people left around Jia Cong.
Jia Cong glanced at a few people and said to Li Biao: "Li Biao, when it is late at night, you are responsible for leading people to put the explosives package under the city wall, the south city wall, the east city wall, and the west city wall, these three city walls, there must be enough explosives bags.
After the fifth watch, the three-way army was in place, and together they detonated the explosive pack, blew the city wall open, and let the three-way army rush into the city. You lead that battalion of elites to enter from the south as soon as possible."
"Yes, Dashuai, his subordinates obey his orders, and he will not disappoint Dashuai."
Li Biao immediately clasped his fists and saluted and took Jia Cong's order.
Jia Cong nodded: "You must pay attention to your own safety, you can lead fifty guards to act with you."
"Thank you, Boss, my subordinates know."
Jia Cong looked at Tie Zhu again: "Tie Zhu, inform the people in Shenyang City to act tonight and act according to plan."
"Yes, Commander, my subordinates will immediately contact the people in the city and inform them of their actions tonight."
Tie Zhu agreed, turned and walked out of the big tent.
Qingwen said, "Dashuai, what are we doing?"
Jia Cong smiled: "We are naturally in command, such a big battle, if there is no one to command, it will be chaotic. If you're too idle, I can find you some work."
Qingwen smiled: "Actually, I'm also a little itchy, what does the handsome want to make ***? Don't you want me to kill Amin, I can do this, kill a Great Khan, it should be enough to be beautiful, right?"
Jia Cong stretched out his hand and flicked it on her head, scolding with a smile, "What do you think? Anyone can be killed, but Amin can't be killed, with Amin here, we can quickly control the entire barbarian race through Amin. But we have to give them a kick down so they can see how good we are."
Qingwen asked suspiciously, "Dashuai, what do you let ***?"
Jia Cong led a few people to a sand table, on which was the layout of the enemy army in Shenyang City.
Several large camps of the barbarian army, as well as some important yamen, and the residences of some barbarian generals, are clearly visible.
These are all sand tables made based on the information transmitted back by the special forces in the city.
Jia Cong pointed to the location of several military camps and said to Qingwen.
"Qingwen, you lead some personal guards, with our new artillery, to ambush outside the city, and wait until Li Biao and them blow up the city wall, you will put a few cannons in each of these military camps in the city.
Our purpose is not to kill as many people as we want, but to deter them, to let them know that even if we don't attack the city, we can kill them all with artillery alone, lest they lose and some people will not be convinced."
"Yes, my subordinates obey."
