Chapter 258; Stir up the situation
Everything slowly returned to calm in front of the Dongxing Pass, except for the mountain of corpses under the front city wall to show that there had been a fierce siege battle here.
The Khitan army did not come to collect the corpses, not because they didn't want to, but because they couldn't. At this time, it was already dark, and they could not be seen at all, and the river tide in the city did not allow them to collect the corpses.
On the city wall, Yue Pengju looked at Jiang Chao, his eyes full of doubts. He asked out loud: "Master Hou, why don't you let them collect the remains of those soldiers, even if they are Khitan soldiers and enemies, but is it a little ...... to let them expose their corpses in Mangye?"
He didn't say anything more, and there was a sadness in his tone.
As a soldier, it is absolutely possible to die on the battlefield one day. The belonging of a soldier is the battlefield.
can think that if he dies on the battlefield one day, but he is as sad as he is now, he doesn't even have a person to collect the corpse, and he has to expose the corpse wilderness, and he feels sad when he thinks about it.
Jiang Chao's refusal to let the enemy collect the corpse made him feel somewhat dissatisfied. He felt that Jiang Chao was too unkind. It's too lacking in the moral character that a soldier should have.
Even if there is an enemy on the other side, there is still due respect.
Jiang Chao glanced at him lightly, and said with a coldness on his face: "This is the battlefield, any mercy for the enemy is cruelty to one's own people." You can't blame me for being ruthless, have you ever seen the harm that those Khitan troops have caused to our people. Now that we are ready to invade us, we must be prepared to be aware of the unsuccessful death. β
"Moreover, you dare to guarantee that those who collect corpses will not have other ideas, such as observing the movements and military situation of our army by collecting corpses. Or take the opportunity to attack our army! β
"Besides, don't we have any other tactics?! Let them collect the corpses, then do we still need to implement our tactics! β
Speaking of this, Jiang Chao looked coldly at the corpses of the Khitan army below, and the coldness in his eyes was a little stronger.
In the past, this nation caused too much humiliation to China, and in addition to this nation, there were also Jurchens and those men on the grassland.
Once let Huaxia fall into dire straits, of course, there are too many alien races that have caused harm to Huaxia, and there should be no sympathy for these alien races. Even compassion.
They will not have any sympathy or pity for you and Huaxia, they only want to take your land, your woman, your property, and even your life.
There should be no mercy for such an enemy. Not to mention, Jiang Chao has other plans.
Yue Pengju was full of shame by Jiang Chao's words, but he still felt a little stubborn in his heart that a soldier should have the character and pride of a soldier.
But he himself was deeply thought-provoking by Jiang Chao's words. You can have pride, but if you are too pedantic, it is not advisable.
He stood quietly at the head of the city, looking at the Khitan army outside in a daze, and slowly, a fine light surged in his eyes.
And Jiang Chao looked at Yue Pengju who was standing there and shook his head slightly.
Although Yue Pengju was different from the one he knew in his previous life, sometimes he still had such an elm head. The idea is old-fashioned and feudal!
Jiang Chao only hoped that he could change his thoughts and attitudes, otherwise, no matter how brave Yue Pengju was, he would still be a little uneasy to use.
Yue Pengju just stood there like this, thinking about what Jiang Chao said.
And Jiang Chao's side has already made people start their own plans. The cannons were all withdrawn into the tunnels dug out and sent in the direction of the two sides outside the city.
The mortar bamboo mines were all withdrawn. By the time of the Thousand Nights, Jiang Chao had secretly opened the city gates on both sides.
At the same time, he ordered his subordinates to sneak out with a thousand men and horses, and the direction of the sneak was the army on Liang Zhizhou's side. Everyone is wearing the Da Zhao military uniform on Liang Zhizhou's side.
These military uniforms are all military uniforms left in Dongxing Guanzhong, and they are not much different from those soldiers in Liang Zhizhou. If you don't look closely, it's sure to be mixed up.
It's just that these thousand people are only a potential dark place, and they did not launch an attack on Liang Zhizhou's military camp. They slowly blended to the edge of the army. Lurking all the time.
On the other side, Jiang Chao's subordinates quietly sneaked to the camp of the Khitan army with 3,000 people. Three thousand people stalked in the dark and were not detected.
However, Yue Pengju, who was on the city wall, found out.
When he saw this scene, there was a shock in his eyes, and he turned around and wanted to go down to inquire about the situation, but at this time, Jiang Chao had already come to his side.
patted him on the shoulder and said, "General Yue doesn't have to worry, you just watch quietly!" β
When Yue Pengju heard this, he knew that this was a strategy implemented by Jiang Chao.
He finally understood now why Jiang Chao didn't let those Khitan soldiers collect their corpses. If you let these Khitan soldiers collect the corpses. If the soldiers of Dongxing Pass want to sneak out quietly, it will definitely be impossible.
He looked in the direction where the army was sneaking, looking guilty, but also full of nervousness. He was afraid that his children would be discovered by the Khitan army.
Moreover, even if such a small number of people can sneak into the Khitan army, what role can they play?! Could it be that Jiang Chao wants to rely on these 3,000 people to take a military camp of more than 100,000 people? !
He felt that Jiang Chao's idea was really too naΓ―ve.
After all, there are hundreds of thousands of Khitan troops here. No matter how brave the 3,000 people are, it is estimated that they will only be sent to death.
Just when he was worried, suddenly, something like a meteor flew out from both sides, and hundreds of such things appeared. Almost the entire night sky is lit up.
Bang...... Bang...... In Yue Pengju's astonishment, those meteor-like things fell into the camp of the Khitan army.
In the blink of an eye, it exploded in it, and the first thing to blow up was the tent where Yelu Guangming, the commander of the Khitan Army, was located.
Originally, during the day, Jiang Chao could bombard the Shuai tent, but Jiang Chao did not bombard, because such a bombardment may not be able to kill Yelu Guangming.
It is better to bombard at night, and wait until Jerod is asleep and dies. Perhaps, one shot can end Yelu Guangming's life. At that time, there may be no suspense in this battle.
As those shells blossomed in the Khitan army, all of a sudden, the Khitan military camp tent was in chaos. More than 100,000 people are all in chaos.
In another mess of chaos, shouts of killing erupted. Then, there was a burst of shouting, which was accompanied by a few words of Khitan.
These Khitan languages were taught by Jiang Chao to his subordinates, and with these Khitan languages, they can make those Khitan people believe.
The Khitan language means that the boss is dead. Run away, everyone! There is also the death of the boss, everyone avenges the boss!
Such opposing shouts will definitely make the Khitan people dizzy.
