Chapter 454: Repression
Chapter 454: Depression
"Your Majesty, you have to be patient now. It's important to send someone to redeem the bones of your dead soldiers first." Li Jing watched carefully from the side and said quickly: "Yang Wanchun used this method to get more money and food on the one hand, but
What’s more important is to damage the morale of our army. Your Majesty, you must not be fooled.”
Lu Zhaoci was stunned, stood up, and said quickly: "Order people to go into the city and tell Yang Wanchun that I am willing to provide money and food in exchange for the bones of the soldiers. After returning, I will personally go to welcome them. Let the three armies be covered with silk.
We welcome the return of these soldiers. Unless the city of Anshi is conquered, it will not be eradicated."
"Your Majesty is wise." Changsun Wuji and others' eyes lit up when they heard this, and they said: "With this move, our soldiers will definitely be angry and their morale will be high. They will regard Yang Wanchun as the enemy who killed his father. Your Majesty treated the soldiers who died in such a cruel way.
The three armies will definitely be moved by it, and they will all die for it. The combat effectiveness can be increased by 30% out of thin air. Your Majesty’s move is wonderful, it can turn disadvantages into advantages, and save the morale that has just weakened. Your Majesty is smart.”
"It's not that I'm smart, it's that I'm incompetent. So far, I haven't found a way to attack Anshi City, which has affected the three armies. Even the bones of the soldiers were taken away by the opponent in exchange for money and food." Lu Zhaoci had a cold look in his eyes.
, snorted coldly and said: "If I can get Yang Wanchun, I will tear him apart and kill his entire clan." The words were filled with a chilling aura, even if the generals around him all came out of the mountains of corpses and seas of blood,
But when they heard Lu Zhaoci's words, their expressions changed drastically. There was a hint of fear in his eyes. They had never seen Lu Zhaoci hate someone so much.
"Your Majesty, I had a suggestion. I wonder what Your Majesty thinks?" Changsun Wuji rolled his eyes and stepped forward and whispered: "There are many people around Anshi City, and we have just captured Yingzi City.
In other mountain cities, there are even more people in total."
"Where is Liu Bo?" When Lu Zhaoci thought of this, a cold light flashed in his eyes. He did not discuss with Li Jing and others, but shouted loudly: "Mobilize an army of 50,000 people and escort all the Goguryeo people in the vicinity of a hundred miles.
I'm of great use." After hearing this, everyone's expressions changed drastically. Even Li Jing's lips trembled for a moment, but when they thought about what happened to Yang Wanchun just now, no one said anything. The other party had even done such a thing. Could it be that he himself
Can't you just do it?
"I obey the order." Liu Bo smiled happily. He turned around and left, arranging his soldiers to escort the Goguryeo people without mentioning it.
"Brother Jing, go and send someone." Lu Zhaoci waved his hand and said, "We must replace the bones of those dead soldiers. This kind of thing will happen again in the future." There was a hint of anger on the faces of all the generals.
It is conceivable that after the other party tastes this kind of advantage, he will definitely do such a thing again.
"Hmph, if they can do it for the first grade, we will do it for the fifteenth grade." Lu Zhaoci punched the previous cases with a fist, and with a murderous look on his face, he coldly snorted: "From today on, I will
Just use the Goguryeo people to attack the city and consume their arrows. Hum, look, how many arrows you have in Anshi City. I don’t believe in these things. How many can you store? You always use one less than one."
"Your Majesty is right." Li Jing nodded and said. As a famous general, he does not agree with this method of siege, because if the general who defends the city is a powerful character, this method will not only fail to capture the city.
, on the contrary, it will damage his reputation. But at this time, one can tell at a glance that Lu Zhaoci is angry, and it is useless for anyone to speak. Only after a period of calmness can he figure it out. Regarding Li Jing's
This kind of mentality was seen by Changsun Wuji and other civil servants, and they thought much more profoundly than Li Jing.
"Everyone, step aside." Lu Zhaoci sighed deeply and said, "I'm tired and need to rest."
"I obey the order." After hearing this, all the generals retreated one after another.
"Xuanling, why do you think His Majesty did such an irrational act today? Tsk tsk, His Majesty is very different from those at home," Xu Shiji said as he walked. In front of them, Li Jing frowned and said nothing.
I don't know if I am thinking about something or listening to their voices.
"Morale." Fang Xuanling said with a smile: "Your Majesty is kind, how can you be a cruel person, but the current situation must be like this, otherwise, it will affect the morale of our army."
"How do you say this?" Xu Shiji's eyes showed a trace of thought...
"Whether it's the victory of the mourning army or other methods, it is not the most exciting thing to directly capture Anshi City, but Anshi City is not so easy to attack. In this case, the morale of the army must be slowly improved.
, at the same time, we must also reduce the opponent's military morale." Fang Xuanling said with a smile: "General, your Majesty has never thought that Anshi City can be captured in this way, but it will still affect the opponent's military morale.
Okay, look, the other side's archers shot to death all the Goguryeo people. Can you tell me how the other side's soldiers would react? One more thing, in Liaodong, hehe, if there are any thoughtful people among these Goguryeo people, they can climb high.
With one call, tens of thousands of young people can be gathered. What should they do if they attack our army's food road? Between the white mountains and black water, the place is too big, and there are many places to hide. How many places can our army find, so these places are left
The young men at the back cannot relax in a short period of time, so His Majesty will take this opportunity to do this. The purpose is to guard against his own food routes and weaken the opponent's morale. As for whether this method can be captured
Your Majesty has never thought about Anshi City, and the general must have never thought about it this way." Xu Shiji nodded, with an embarrassed look on his face.
"If the official guessed correctly, I'm afraid the young man he got will harass him several times every day. Hehe, this is enough for Yang Wanchun." Fang Xuanling sneered and said: "Hehe, use the people of Goguryeo to do it.
It's good to be angry with Yang Wanchun, and it's also good to use Yang Wanchun's bows and arrows to help us eliminate future troubles and boost the morale of the army."
"Hehe, too." Xu Shiji nodded and said with a smile: "Let's go change clothes." After saying that, he bowed his hands towards Fang Xuanling, but they each walked towards their own tents, and the one walking in front
Li Jing also seemed to have figured something out, with a smile on his face and walked towards his tent.
In the city, on the square, facing thousands of stones of grain and grass, Yang Wanchun and other generals showed excitement on their faces. Gao Yuanshan and others were even more smiling.
"The general is wise. If things continue like this, we can eat Tang Tong's food and kill Tang Tong's people." Gao Yuanshan said with a smile: "Unless he is not prepared to attack the city, otherwise, if he attacks the city, people will die. In this way.
Once this happens, our army will be able to get more food. The general thinks that fifty dan of food per corpse is too little. Hey, Tang Tong is willing to spend more food and grass in order to save the morale of the army. Next time
Come on, I think you can't exchange it for a hundred stones of food." The other generals also nodded. Even Yang Wanchun's face showed a hint of emotion. The so-called lack of people's hearts is probably like a snake swallowing an elephant.
At this time, suddenly a burst of drums came over, and then the music started, and the sadness in the sound soared to the sky. Even Gao Yuanshan and other warriors could clearly feel the sadness and anger in it. Everyone couldn't help but feel it.
I looked in the direction of the mournful music, only to find that it was coming from outside the city.
"Not good." Yang Wanchun's expression suddenly changed, and he quickly said to the generals around him: "Let's go up to the city wall." After saying that, he got on the soft sedan on the side, and Gao Yuanshan and others also got on their horses to protect Yang Wanchun.
Head towards the city wall.
Everyone had just climbed up the city wall and looked outside the city, but they saw a sea of white outside the city at this time. In the vast white field, countless Tang Army soldiers stood on the battlefield. There was a road among the army, and at the front of the road, there were several
Ten general-looking people, all dressed in white clothes and hats, were looking at the high platform in front of them.
"General, what do they want to do?" Upon seeing this, Gao Yuanshan and others suddenly showed a trace of surprise on their faces and said, "The whole army is so unpretentious. Could it be that Tang Tong was so angry with us that that's why this happened? The whole army is so unpretentious. If
That's really true, that's interesting." Yang Wanxia and others also burst out laughing. The whole army is so quiet that non-important generals in the army can't do it. No wonder they have this idea, but that's what they think, guard Yang Wanchun
But that’s not what I thought.
"The sad soldiers will win." Yang Wanchun's expression on the top of the city changed slightly. Looking at the white ocean outside the city, his eyes were slightly absent-minded. No one understood Lu Zhaoci and an enemy as well as he did. He
I originally thought that I could use this method to destroy the enemy's morale, but I didn't expect that it would be cracked by the opponent so easily. The morale of the enemy who just failed to capture Anshi City will be sacrificed during this worship event.
Reaching the top, he will even be far better than before, because what he did was too unreasonable and successfully aroused the other party's anger. If he had known that Lu Zhaoci would do this, he would not have chosen this method.
Harming others and himself, we still don’t know what kind of measures Lu Zhaoci will take next. He believes that Lu Zhaoci will definitely take other measures. Because otherwise, he would not be Lu Zhaoci.
"It seems that this kind of transaction cannot be done in the future." Yang Wanchun shook his head and said: "Although we got thousands of stones of food and grass today, we lost the morale of the army and allowed the other party to increase their morale out of thin air. This kind of transaction is not cost-effective.
"." As if in response to his words, on the battlefield outside the city, slogans such as "Long Live" and "Revenge" were shouted. The sound was so loud that it was as if even the walls of Anshi City would be shaken down. The faces of Gao Yuanshan and others
The commander couldn't help but change his color. This was the anger coming from his heart. The anger of hundreds of thousands of troops was not something anyone could bear. Looking at the high-morale Tang army below the city, the generals couldn't help but regret it. It's a pity.
It's already too late.
"If I had known this, I should have given away those Tang Army corpses as gifts." Yang Wanchun sighed secretly in his heart. Although he also took the other party's corpse away, this might cause dissatisfaction from the other party, but if he could send it out as a gift later,
, this can not only reduce the hostility of the other party, but more importantly, it can also damage the military morale of the other party. The process is different, but the results are also different.
"The Tang Dynasty is really extraordinary. Even this momentum is extraordinary." Listening to the roar of the mountains below the city and looking at the snowy white outside the city, the faces of Gao Yuanshan, Yang Wanxia and others became solemn, although just now
The Emperor of the Tang Dynasty was teased, but at this time, everyone saw the extraordinary nature of the Tang Dynasty. Look at these soldiers, their morale is high, and look at their own army. Although they have just won a little victory, but in
A look of fear appeared on the faces of the other side as they shouted. The morale of both sides was suddenly turned upside down. This made people feel worried. The excitement just now disappeared without a trace. Everyone was nervous.
Looking at the Tang army under the city.
"Hey, go back." Yang Wanchun's brows furrowed even more tightly, and the wound on his back seemed to flare up again, and he said calmly: "Lu Zhaoci has set up such a big battle now, and obviously he won't let it go. Soon,
There will definitely be a big war coming, and they will definitely launch a forcible attack on Anshi City tomorrow, and then they will have to rely on the generals." After saying that, with the support of his soldiers, he walked towards the bottom of the city, and the other generals also followed.
I sighed deeply. I didn’t expect the Tang Dynasty’s reaction to be so great. Isn’t it just a matter of extorting some food and grass? I think your Tang family has a great cause, so it’s normal to extort some food and grass. There’s nothing to regret.
It's good now that such a large formation has been created. It is clear that they will not give up until Anshi City is taken. For a time, everyone's joy suddenly disappeared without a trace, and some were only heavy. Hundreds of thousands of troops seemed to
It's like a pressure on my heart. This kind of pressure is huge and almost unbearable.
The shouts outside the city are still continuing, the sound is shaking everywhere, and the entire city of Anshi seems to have been shaken by the shouts. But there is a sound of silence in the city, whether it is the common people or the leading generals, their faces are expressionless.
Everyone looked solemn, and Yang Wanxia and others also began to order soldiers to prepare boiling oil and pounding stones on the top of the city to prepare for a counterattack.
It's a pity that a day has passed since the ceremony outside the city, but I still can't see any action from the other party. It seems that I have completely forgotten the matter in front of me. If it weren't for the fact that I could clearly hear the Tang Army camp opposite from the top of the city.
The shouts of killing came from the air. Everyone really thought that Tang Jun had forgotten what happened in Anshi City.
Inside the government office, Yang Wanchun and others frowned, their faces full of contemplation. The hall was silent, there was no sound at all, and even the soldiers and maids serving outside did not dare to approach the hall easily, because they all
I know that several generals inside are in a bad mood at the moment.
"If this Tang Tong gets up and fights us gun to gun, knife to knife, I, Gao Yuanshan, won't be afraid of him. But now it's good, he actually cowers in the camp and doesn't come out, which makes me, Gao Yuan,
Shan doesn't know what the other party is planning." After a while, Gao Yuanshan finally spoke. The hall began to feel a little breathy.
Yang Wanchun and others also nodded when they heard this. What Gao Yuanshan said was what they said. The situation in front of them was too weird. They had no idea what kind of medicine Lu Zhaoci was selling. If this fist was punched,
I am not afraid anymore, but the fist has not been punched, and I have no idea where the opponent will hit or what its target is. This is the most terrifying and worrying thing. Although Yang Wanchun is good at defending the city, but
His own troops are small, but there are many troops outside the city. There are famous generals and fierce generals among the generals. Together, they are no match for them. Yang Wanchun can only defend passively, and he can't attack them at every opportunity.
After all, he has learned from the past when launching an active attack. If the other party attacks, Yang Wanchun will not be afraid. But if he doesn't attack, the army gathers outside the city, and he doesn't take action. Could it be that your army of hundreds of thousands consumes food and grass every day?
Huge, your Tang Dynasty is very rich, but you can't be so wasteful, right?
"Lu Zhaoci is cunning and cunning, and Li Jing is scheming. When these two people join forces, it is difficult to deal with them. I thought that the last opportunity I took would weaken the other party's morale, but I didn't expect that in the end, the other party would take the opportunity to reverse the situation and let the other party reverse the situation.
The already weakened morale has soared. I really didn't expect it." Yang Wanchun sighed, shook his head and said: "The situation in front of us is unclear now. Lu Zhaoci and Li Jing have not taken action yet, but this does not mean that
As long as these two people don't take action, these two people must be hiding some secret behind them. Once they do, it will be a fatal blow. Generals, you must not relax and guard carefully." Yang Wanchun had a sad look on his face, and he couldn't figure it out.
The other party would come up with some way to deal with him and Anshi City, but it would definitely be a vicious way. The less movement there was, the more it showed the problem. Yang Wanchun did not dare to underestimate his enemy.
"Hey. It's really irritating." Gao Yuanshan sighed fiercely. Life like this is frustrating. He is trapped in the city and cannot get out or fight. This is not what Gao Yuanshan wants.
Personality, and more importantly, not knowing what the other party will do next is the most frustrating thing. But there is nothing you can do about it.
"Dong dong" At this moment, a burst of war drums suddenly came from outside the city. The sound of the drums was so loud that it resounded through the sky. It was obvious that an enemy was invading. Logically speaking, this time should be the most tense time, but everyone in the hall was talking to each other.
He took a look, and then sighed deeply. If things like this continue, even if the Tang army does not attack, the defenders in the city will go crazy. In front of them, the Tang army actually attacks, which makes Yang Wanchun and others relax.
One breath.
"Let's go see what kind of measures Tang Tong has in store." Yang Wanchun's face showed a hint of relief. Since you have made a move, I have a way to resist.
