Chapter 285: Born benevolent, compassionate and compassionate, Liu Boan
Tian Yu's words commented on the pros and cons of the army on both sides completely aroused Gongsun Zan's fighting spirit, regained his glory, and strengthened his confidence in winning.
"The lord is the soul of the three armies. As long as the lord maintains such an indomitable spirit and tenacious fighting spirit, it will surely infect our soldiers. As the saying goes, generals are the soul of soldiers, and soldiers are the courage of generals. If our army is led by a commander like the lord, why not be afraid of Liu Yu's 100,000 soldiers, and why worry about the uncertainty of the Youzhou!!!"
Looking at the radiant Gongsun Zan, Tian Yu continued to speak inspirational.
Sometimes, if you encourage people, you can change the direction of the battle situation by saying a few words, especially in the Youzhou battlefield at this time. With the huge gap in strength between the two sides, Tian Yu became the crucial person to turn the battle situation around. What happened today will be recorded in history. Since Emperor Ling passed away, the Han court was incompetent, and the world was in chaos, Tian Yu was another general who won the more with few, and he will be remembered by the world. Of course, this is a story later. Let's take a look at it now.
"What the country is right and can help Zan gets help from his country. It is really a blessing in life. If the country is helping me, why worry about the unfair states in the netherlands? Why worry about the lack of a place for me Gongsun Zan in this world?"
At this time, Gongsun Zan came to his senses and said gratefully to Tian Yu.
"If Tian Yu can win the trust of the lord, he is willing to serve his lord with death. Let us come together to welcome Liu Yu's army!"
Tian Yu said in a state of emotion.
"Brother, Gongsun Ji has arranged for him to live."
At this time, Gongsun came to report more and more.
"Well, Gongsun Ji is my benefactor of Gongsun Zan. Don't neglect it. Take out a thousand gold coins from the treasury to him, and then select a few young and beautiful maids from the mansion to send them."
Gongsun Zan has always been clearly distinguished from grudges. Gongsun Ji only sent one message, but was thanked by Gongsun Zan. This daughter is enough to make Gongsun Ji a rich man.
"I'll do it now!"
Gongsun Yue then turned around and left.
"Lord, we should send scouts into Guangyang County to monitor Liu Yu's army's every move."
Guan Jing quickly suggested.
"Not only that, our army also needs to summon all the defenders in Youbeiping to Tuyin County to prepare for a battle against the enemy. Our number of soldiers is already small, so Liu Yu cannot defeat them one by one. Then send Baima Yi out of the city to attack Liu Yu's army's food route."
Tian Yu suggested after taking Guan Jing's words.
"No, not bad, Guorang, Shiqi, you are right. I'll make arrangements now!"
Listening to his right-hand man giving advice, Gongsun Zan immediately smiled and said.
Just when Gongsun Zan sent a scout, the Liu Yu army far away in Ji County had also gathered and was about to march towards Yuyang County. Before leaving, Liu Yu decided to lead the army to go. He was really afraid that Xian Yufu would not obey his orders and kill innocent people indiscriminately. This changing generals at the last stage was a taboo in military strategists. Although all the generals complained constantly, Liu Yu was the lord, but the generals could not act too much.
Liu Yu's army walked quite smoothly, and had never encountered any resistance during this period. A few days later, they surrounded the Tuyin City of Gongsun Zan.
"Lord, Tuyin City's wall is not high and not thick, so the bow and arrow can be shot into the city. Just shoot it with a rocket. When the fire catches everywhere in the city, Gongsun Zan is tired of dealing with it, and then orders the army to attack a wall and can be broken within a few days."
As Liu Yu's number one strategist, Tian Chou observed Tuyincheng and suggested to Liu Yu.
"What Military Secretary Tian said is reasonable, as far as the last thing will be seen, it is feasible."
Xian Yufu immediately agreed.
"This plan is very good, I will agree!"
Xian Yuyin also discussed it.
"No, no, this matter is absolutely impossible. If we shoot it with a rocket, wouldn't the people in Tuyin City suffer this disaster? Our army is here to kill Gongsun Zan, so don't commit murder in vain! It's better to send soldiers to attack the city by force. Our army has 100,000 people, and I believe Gongsun Zan can't stand it for a few days."
After hearing this, Liu Yu shook his head and rejected Tian Chou's plan, and saw him say sympathetically.
"Lord, if we don't use bows and arrows to suppress Gongsun Zan, our army will have great casualties if it attacks hard. Lord, you have to think twice!"
Tian Chou was stunned when he heard this and then advised him.
"No, I said no, it's not possible! The people are innocent, and our army cannot kill indiscriminately!"
Liu Yu shook his head again and said firmly.
"Even if you can't use rockets, you can shoot with bows and arrows, it's just a lot of tricks! Let's do this, archers shoot arrows at a city wall to suppress Gongsun Zan's army on the city wall, and then let the rushing car hit the city gate and infantry climb the city wall. In this way, Gongsun Zan will definitely not be an opponent of our army!"
Seeing that Liu Yu firmly disagreed with the use of the rocket, Tian Chou had to settle for the second best and made another plan, saying.
"That's all!"
Xian Yufu said helplessly.
"Then you will have a rest today and start siege tomorrow."
Liu Yu said.
"Lord, our soldiers first arrived here and were at a time of high morale. How can we return to the army to rest? Let's do it in one go!"
Tian Chou looked puzzled. It was noon and the army had only walked dozens of miles, so why did he rest?
"Zi Tai, look, the sun is in the sky at this time, and the soldiers are very tired. In my opinion, it is better to take a rest for a day. It will not be too late to attack tomorrow. Besides, Gongsun Zan is in the city at this time, so he can't run away."
Liu Yu said indifferently.
"Lord, Gongsun Zan is not prepared enough. The siege is a war of attrition. How can our army let him prepare for another day? Please think twice."
Tian Chou was angry when he heard this. Although he wanted to curse, he still patiently advised him.
"Okay, this matter is settled, let Xian Yufu order the entire army to camp!"
Liu Yu said impatiently with fatigue.
"My lord is old, it's not that we are tired, it's that he is tired, let's go, Zitai."
After Liu Yu left, Xian Yufu immediately stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder, afraid of him, and said with a wry smile.
"Oh, a general is incompetent and exhausts the three armies. If this continues, our army will be in a worrying situation!"
Tian Chou shouted in a low voice.
"Be careful of your words, and be careful of your words, be careful of your lord hearing."
Xian Yufu was shocked when he heard this and quickly persuaded in a low voice.
"Forget it, let's go and find a place to cool off and let your lord take a good rest."
Tian Chou said helplessly.
Liu Yu's army then retreated five miles to start camping, leaving only a small number of troops to monitor Tuyincheng.
Gongsun Zan, who was preparing to welcome Liu Yu's army to attack on the top of Tuyin City, saw him retreating, and then was stunned and asked with confusion: "What is Liu Yu's going to do? His army surrounded our Tuyin City with the force of Mount Tai. It is a great opportunity to attack the city. However, he did not know that one moment of one move would decline again and be exhausted three times?"
"Lord, don't be suspicious. Our army will respond to changes with the same change. Let's see what tricks he, Liu Yu can do!"
Tian Yu was also stunned by the actions of Liu Yu's army outside the city. After thinking for a while, Tian Yu didn't think of anything, so he could only say this.
"You are right. Since Liu Yu doesn't attack the city, I will have a day to prepare the city's guarding supplies."
Gongsun Zan laughed when he heard this.
After saying nothing all night, Gongsun Zan spent the first day in fear, but he didn't know that Liu Yu was leading his army to sleep in the camp. The next morning, Gongsun Zan received a report from the scout. When he learned the news, Gongsun Zan burst into laughter, and his eyes immediately showed disdain, and the depressed feeling in his heart dissipated.
Liu Yu's army has not been through the battle formation for a long time, and its combat power is only stronger than ordinary militias. Liu Yu has been besieging Tuyin City for three consecutive days, and has paid a heavy price, but it has not shaken Tuyin City at all. The siege of the city these days has made the morale of the soldiers of Liu Yu's army even more depressed. On the other hand, Gongsun Zan's army is full of fighting spirit, from the original trembling and terrifying to the moment when it is full of energy and arrogant.
Inside the Liu Yu army camp.
"Lord, let's order the rockets. I can guarantee that Tuyincheng will be able to go down within three days!"
Tian Chou advised again with an anxious look on his face. He didn't know how many times he had persuaded Liu Yu in the past three days, but Liu Yu was unmoved or insisted on his own.
"Zi Tai, wouldn't it be necessary to use rockets to cause the people in Tuyin City to suffer unrestrained disasters? This matter must not be done. Let's continue to attack the city. In my opinion, the siege in the past few days has been quite effective. I believe that the attack will be able to be taken down in Tuyin City for a few more days."
Liu Yu replied lightly.
"Lord, our army has suffered more than 20,000 casualties in the past few days. On the other hand, Gongsun Zan's army has only suffered thousands of casualties. With this kind of fighting style, even if our army has completely destroyed it, it will not be able to capture Tuyin City. Besides, the lives of the people in the city are life, so is the lives of our soldiers no longer life?"
Xian Yufu was so angry that he thought that the lord was going to do something, and he had to have a limit to compassion for the world, right? Even for his own reputation, it was almost the same? For some reason, Liu Yu just refused to let go, which made him very difficult to understand.
"Don't mention this matter again. It is fate that soldiers fight on the battlefield, but the people in Tuyin City are innocent. I will not harm them for my own selfishness. If the soldiers are unwilling to sacrifice, let them leave. We will return to Ji County and recruit soldiers."
In Liu Yu's view, soldiers fighting on the battlefield was a fate, but the people had other choices. Although Liu Yu had a weak personality, he actually considered the people. If Liu Yu's ethics were placed in modern times, he would definitely be a clean official who remembered the history of history. However, in this chaotic world where no morality, no benevolence and righteousness, no human nature, his personality hurt him and the generals who had always followed him loyally.
"well!"
Tian Chou was so angry that he didn't know what to say, and then he ignored Liu Yu's face and directly broke out of the handsome tent.
"Lord, you have to think twice. Gongsun Zan in Tuyin City is a jackal, tiger and leopard. At this time, our army and him have become a desperate situation."
Xian Yufu advised anxiously.
"Don't mention this matter again. I believe that the people in Tuyin City will see my feelings. At that time, people's hearts will definitely be on my side. As the saying goes, man will conquer nature, there is no need to worry about General Xianyu!"
Liu Yu looked at Tian Chou who was leaving in anger, and after hesitating for a moment, he still did not speak out to keep him. As the saying goes, the saying goes, do not plan for each other. Since the two have different ideas, why bother to force each other? When he heard Xian Yufu persuade him again, Liu Yu immediately comforted him softly.
"Oh! I will say goodbye at the end!"
Xian Yufu then turned around and left the handsome tent. He was afraid that he would be unable to hold back and beat Liu Yu.
