Chapter 710: Please send reinforcements
In Yin Yuhu's opinion, sacrificing a few insignificant foot soldiers can prepare for the army's next capture of Beiqingcheng, which is undoubtedly a worthwhile thing.
What he asked for was the recovery of Beiqingcheng, and he would not care how many people were killed in the process.
Anyway, they are all a group of foot soldiers with no social status, there is nothing else in Goryeo, there has been no war in these years, the population has grown a lot, and the number of tens of millions of people is there, as long as there is food, are you afraid that there will be no soldiers?
Speaking of which, at this point, Su Shi's luck is still good. He came to a densely populated period, such as Zhao and Song, when the population was more than 100 million. And if he came to the early days of the Tang Dynasty, the population at that time was only two million.
Two million, are you afraid?
This is not to be destroyed, but to be almost wiped out. If this is the case, even if two million people all believe in Su Shi, it must be impossible to develop all the capabilities of the system.
Besides, Yin Kun, when he heard that he could get a first meritorious name, he immediately thought about it.
yes, isn't it just to die some mud legs, it's better to die if you die, and it's not your own death anyway.
So, Yin Kun, who returned to the vanguard army again, brought another 5,000 foot soldiers, and then a new round of siege battles began again.
There is a saying that you can't imagine Dad's happiness.
The number of bows and arrows in Su Shi's hands will also be unimaginable.
The Goryeo army continued to attack, and with the attack of the catapult, it seemed that the movement was not small, but the effect was extremely poor.
In order to be able to become auxiliaries, and in order to become regular soldiers, the auxiliary soldiers are doing their best to find targets and kill the enemy.
When killing the enemy became a kind of competition, one can imagine how unlucky the infantry soldiers used by the Goryeo army to siege the city would be.
Rush a batch, get shot a batch, and then retreat.
Following the order, he charged again, was wounded again by an arrow, and then retreated.
Over and over again, more and more peasant soldiers were promoted to auxiliary soldiers, but it was too difficult for auxiliary soldiers to become regular soldiers. All because Su Shi has a rule, after the auxiliary soldiers shoot a maximum of five enemies, the other achievements cannot be counted.
It's not all counted, and there are still rewards for shooting enemies, for example, killing an enemy will reward you with varying amounts of food and dragon coins.
But if you want to rely on the bow and arrow to become a regular soldier, that will not work. It is stipulated that a maximum of five enemies can be shot, and the remaining five must rely on real swords and real guns on the battlefield to kill the enemy.
Even so, the middle-aged people of Goryeo, who had been promoted to an auxiliary soldier, were still happy to do so. It would also be a great thing to be rewarded with food and dragon coins, so of course they should seize such an opportunity.
In this way, when it was dark, all the regular soldiers of the Dragon King Army did not make a move, and they repelled the Goryeo army five sieges.
When it got dark, the Goryeo army also stopped attacking, and it was true that many people in this era were suffering from night blindness, and letting them attack the city when it was dark was equivalent to sending them to death.
Except for some of the auxiliaries and peasant soldiers who defended the city, the others returned to the city, one by one with various rewards, and after a while, the sound of firecrackers ignited in the entire Beiqing City. These are all things that those who have made meritorious deeds have cast when they return home.
In today's battle, not only did they come back alive, but they also made a meritorious contribution and brought a lot of food and dragon coins to their families, isn't this worth celebrating?
In this way, there is still a large army outside the city, but in Beiqingcheng, it is a lively scene.
Originally, I was worried that the Goryeo army would enter the city, but now it seems that these troops can't even defeat the peasant soldiers, so what is there to worry about, and for a while, the people in the entire city have become relaxed.
Under the light of the street lamps, Beiqingcheng has become a city that never sleeps tonight, and I don't know how many people have left their homes and walked out of the street to celebrate.
It seems that at this moment, they have won a great battle and have repelled the Goryeo army that came to find trouble.
Outside the city, Yin Kun came to the main tent with his head down, and as soon as he saw Yin Yuhu, he knelt on the ground and said, "Up."
General, his subordinates are incompetent, and they have not captured Beiqingcheng."
"Hey, what are you doing here?" Yin Yuhu laughed, and took two steps forward to help this clan nephew up, "There is an old saying among the Han people, victory and defeat are a common thing in soldiers. The high walls of Beiqing City are strong, and a momentary failure is nothing."
Yin Kun, who was helped up, still looked a little unoptimistic after being encouraged. Seeing that his nephew's face was not good, Yin Yuhu wanted to mention him, so he said again: "Considering that Beiqingcheng is not easy to attack, General Ben has just written a letter and ordered someone to send it to Kaijing City, asking the king to send another army."
"Send another army?" Yin Kun was a little confused this time.
Today is just the attack on Beiqingcheng, although the 10,000 foot soldiers sent the day before yesterday disappeared without a trace, but even if it is the loss of thousands of people in today's siege, the combined loss is just the loss of more than 10,000 people, which is not a real injury for an army of 80,000, it seems that it is not time to ask for help.
Yin Kun's puzzled look fell into Yin Yuhu's eyes, and he laughed and said, "Isn't it better that our Yin clan has as many troops as possible?"
Being reminded by this, Yin Kun suddenly realized, and suddenly thought of something and said, "The general means to use this battle to enrich my Yin clan's military power?"
"Hahaha." Yin Yuhu smiled and didn't answer, but his eyes were clearly saying that the children could be taught.
Yin Yuhu fought this idea.
is different from Li Qi, a civil official, after Wenzong Wang Hui took power, the first thing to open was the Yin family.
In fact, as the only general in Goryeo, the weight of military power held by the Yin family over the years has made Wenzong too jealous.
Wenchen's matter is easy to solve, as long as a reasonable evidence is presented, a large army can be dispatched. Therefore, under normal circumstances, the emperor will first grasp the military power, which is equivalent to having the right to speak, and he will be able to do things like an arm.
Feeling that Wenzong had begun to weaken the Yin clan's military power intentionally or unintentionally, Yin Yuhu certainly didn't want to be captured. Now take the opportunity of this battle to promote more people from the Yin family as generals, and promote more people close to the Yin family, so that he can be invincible with military power.
This is something that Yin Yuhu thought about before he set out on the expedition, or he still wished that Beiqingcheng was not easy to attack.
The harder it is to attack, the more excuses there are to ask for reinforcements, right? Yin Yuhu believed that everything that happened in the past three days would be truthfully reported by Jin Hao, the prison army sent by the Wen Sect, and even if this was the case, he would naturally take this opportunity to ask for reinforcements.
"Yin Kun, you have a good rest tonight, and continue to attack the city early tomorrow morning. Remember, those who are disobedient can let them go to the siege first, understand?"
This is Yin Yuhu's desire to eliminate dissidents and clean up those who are disobedient first.
Yin Kun understood the trick at this meeting, and said excitedly at the moment, "Please rest assured, General, Kun knows how to do it."
Just when Yin Yuhu was mentioning his family's nephew, in another military tent not far away, the memo of the supervising army Jin Hao had been written, and someone was sent to Kaijing.
Kim Ho is from the Kim family of Goryeo and is also one of the big families. And they were also the first Goryeo family to take refuge in Munjong.
When the old king dies and the new king succeeds to the throne, it often represents a new division of rights and interests, and at this time it is time to take sides.
Speaking of which, there is only one king, and the team is not optional, but when is the time to take refuge in the past, this timing is very important.
is like Yin Yuhu, which means that the Yin family is estimated at the price, but the Jin family is very low-key, and almost no conditions are mentioned, so he invested in the Wenzong sect.
In history, the Kim family also began to grow at this time, and the entire Kim family became stronger because of it, and finally the Yoon family and the Lee family were destroyed, and the Kim family and the Park family became the largest family power in Goryeo.
The Jin family's initiative to take refuge naturally made Wenzong happy, this time he clearly appointed Yin Yuhu as the main general, but he still sent Jin Hao as the supervising army, in order to balance the Yin family.
Jin Hao, who had finished writing the recital, sat there and closed his eyes to recuperate.
In the past few days, he has been looking for Yin
Jade Tiger's faults and mistakes, but there was no progress at all.
This Yin Yuhu deserves to be a general, and he has a very good set of arrangements, just like at night, there are still a lot of cavalry cruising outside the barracks, so as to ensure that even if the Dragon King Army comes by surprise, they can find it and counterattack as soon as possible.
During the day, during the siege, he did his best, and there was no intention of releasing water. The reason why it was not captured can only be said that the combat effectiveness of the Dragon King Army is also very strong.
I really couldn't find anything wrong, so Jin Hao could only report it according to the truth.
But after writing the book, Jin Hao faintly felt a little uneasy, but the reason was that he couldn't find it.
Besides, the book went straight to Kaijing at a speed of 800 miles, and only one day later, it was delivered to Wenzong.
One was written by Jin Hao, the city of Beiqingcheng is tall and difficult to attack.
One was written by Yin Yuhu, and reinforcements needed to be dispatched to continue the siege.
The two letters are different, but they both mean the same thing, that is, the siege of the city by the great army is blocked.
Regarding Yin Yuhu's writing about the reinforcements, Wenzong selectively ignored it, did not respond at all, and waited for new changes in the situation on the front line.
This matter was soon learned by Li Qi, the deputy ruler who had placed eyeliner in the palace, and he immediately told the news to Meng Youde, who lived at home, and asked him what he was going to do next.
"Do nothing." Meng Youde shook his head, thinking about the various information he had collected during the past while, thinking about what he said when he communicated with Su Shi, and continued: "This is to show that the Yin clan wants to take the opportunity to seize more military power, this is the game between the Yin clan and Wenzong, although Lord Li is watching from the sidelines, maybe someone will send you benefits."
