Chapter 849

But in those several wars that shocked the world, Grand Secretary Su almost saw from the beginning to the end in the posture of a spectator. Not to mention the scene of the war, he had never tasted the smoke of the war.

This made Master Su, who had always liked the poems of the ancient frontiers, feel a little uncomfortable. This is why he came here in person after hearing that the imperial guards came to help.

Finally, he saw the real war and understood the cruelty and danger of fighting on the battlefield. Seeing the heroic soldiers who were still laughing for the first quarter of an hour turned into a cold corpse at the next moment, it also brought great shock to him.

The dignified Grand Secretary Su would leave several generals after the military discussion every day, humbly asking questions about the issue of governing the army, commanding the army, and commanding the operations. This made the generals so flattered that they deeply felt Grand Secretary Su's attention to the Tiger Ben of the Song Dynasty.

The soldiers became more and more brave and fearless in fighting. What is important is that compared with the Liao and Xia coalition forces, the siege weapons of the Song Dynasty were more excellent and the methods were more numerous.

Compared with the nomadic people who were not good at sieging cities, the Great Song Hu Ben was not only good at defending the city, but also good at sieging the city. After all, they were good at using city defense to defend, and they also understood the weaknesses of city defense.

In addition, the urban defense of Yinzhou is just average, ordinary, and there is no big difference from the Huanzhou in the Song Dynasty, and it is even slightly inferior to the urban defense of Huanzhou.

More importantly, they do not have the magical city defense repair tools like Yuanyou Cement. Once the city wall is damaged, it will be difficult to repair it during wartime.

Nowadays, several cracks have appeared in the city walls of Yinzhou. All the defenders in the city can do is to tear some bricks, stones and wood from the city and stuff them into the cracks.

In addition, the Song Dynasty experienced several exciting victory over the Western Xia, which made the soldiers confident and morale high. However, the people of Xixia were depressed due to their successive defeats. As one fell swoop, the other was naturally more advantageous. The 100,000 Song Hu Ben vs. Yinzhou, which had only more than ten thousand Western Xia soldiers guarded, had an advantage.

"...According to the current situation of Yinzhou City, there will be three or four days left in the end, Yinzhou City will be destroyed." A general headed Su Xueshi with confidence.

"The only thing I worry about now is whether the reinforcements from the Xixia people will come. If they arrive in time, it will be difficult to find Yinzhou."

"It's okay..." At this time, Su Xueshi, who was the head coach, took his long beard and spoke slowly. "The army has two intentions to attack Yinzhou. One is to strive to win Yinzhou and then advance to Shizhou and divide the eastern territory of Xixia into two."

"The second thing is to surround Wei and save Zhao, and let the Liaoxia coalition forces who are attacking Youzhou divide their troops to help. If the Liaoxia coalition forces really divide their troops to help, then the pressure on tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians in Youzhou City can be greatly reduced."

"After all the armies are in place, the strategy of the Liaoxia coalition forces' attempt to seize the three states will naturally become vague..."

"So, whether the reinforcements from Xixia come or not, as a result, for our Song Dynasty, there will only be benefits but no harm, so you don't have to worry too much about the victory or defeat of Yinzhou City..." Mr. Su's explanation said that it was in the hearts of the generals.

Well, I have to say that Su Dongpo's explanation and tone seemed very Buddhist. Looking at the boss's calm and gentle look, the hearts of the great Song Dynasty tigers suddenly began to surge.

Why don’t you worry too much about the victory or defeat of Yinzhou City? What you always mean is that even if we are a 100,000-strong army, squatting outside Yinzhou City and kneading melon seeds in a daze, it means it is a kind of victory?

Isn’t this just telling everyone nakedly that it’s okay to work hard, or it’s okay not to work hard?

A feeling of pain in being peeped out spreads in the hearts of the Song generals.

Grand Secretary Su still didn't realize it because he was used to opening map guns to attack people. Grand Secretary Su didn't think there was anything wrong with his words that were really reasonable.

"These days, the generals have worked hard. Today, the soldiers are exhausted. Today, the troops will rest early and wait for tomorrow morning, and then..."

"Su Xiang, I thought it was inappropriate..." At this time, an imperial guard general stood up and gave Su Dongpo a respectful salute.

"???What is the inappropriate sentence of this official?" Su Dongpo looked at the imperial guard general in confusion.

"No, no, no, it's not that Su Xiang, what's wrong with you..." Another general saw that the situation was not good, rushed out and took over the conversation, and glared at this idiot fiercely. You're so fucking you're fine, right?

Su Dongpo was still full of doubts. The talented Grand Secretary Su is not a fool. He always felt that these two guys were afraid that there would be something wrong with these contradictory words.

At this moment, standing beside Su Dongpo, Zong Ze, who had been giving advice to Su Dongpo for a while, cleared his throat and came to Su Dongpo's side and spoke. "I guess the generals felt that the defenders of Yinzhou City are becoming weaker and weaker now, and their morale is becoming more and more low. At this moment, we not only cannot weaken the offensive, but also should strengthen the offensive."

"Besides, Su Xiang, you also said that if you can't take over Yinzhou City, you can restrain the Liaoxia coalition forces from the offensive against Yuzhou, and if you can win Yinzhou City, you can still restrain the Liaoxia coalition forces..."

Su Dongpo nodded slightly relievedly and signaled Zong Ze to continue speaking. The generals also breathed a sigh of vigor and looked at Zong Ze with their eyes shining. It's great. Although this guy is a civil servant, he can understand the meaning of us rough men.

"So, now we not only need to strengthen the offensive, but also best not to give the defenders any chance to breathe. The reinforcements from Xixia have not arrived, so we can seize Yinzhou in one go. At that time, even if the Liaoxia coalition forces arrive in full swing, our army can rely on Yinzhou City as a support, and we can stand firm here and wait for assistance..."

These words made the generals present nodded in disagreement, and secretly praised Zong Ze's analysis.

Yes, it’s okay to win Yinzhou, or it’s okay to not win. Under such circumstances, if you can win, you can make more contributions, so why not do it?

Mr. Su was indeed very kind. Seeing that the generals in this tent were very enthusiastic about fighting, he finally nodded and agreed to the requests of these generals.

"Since you all think that it is the time now, then, let's do it."

The generals showed joy and began to make up, while Su Dongpo continued to take charge of the central army's tent as his mascot to stabilize the morale of the army.

After dinner, the soldiers guarding the city were already exhausted and fell asleep in their clothes, leaving only some young and strong men on duty on the city wall.
