102. A counterattack is brewing, at the apex of the war
Tuoba Jiefen did not say anything about Tuoba Liwei's future. He regarded it as a secret, and only he and his two sons knew the secret. He did not reveal it to any of the remaining elders.
In fact, making this decision was a bit impromptu for Tuoba Jiefen. If his son had not proposed a proposal to surrender to the Han Dynasty, Tuoba Jiefen would not have been able to think of this task. Therefore, it is very difficult to reject a proposal.
It is easy, especially an idea that is far from mature in a flash, but the reason why genius is precious is that he can use the imagination beyond others to create fantastic ideas, just like an antelope hanging its horns
It makes people hard to guard against.
Of course, the difference between visionaries and achievers is that although they have inspiration, the effort required to perfect it and put in huge efforts to practice and complete it is the famous 99%. As for 1% and 99%
Who is more important? Personally, I feel that 1% is like parents, which determines the innate genes of their children, while the 99% is the hard work of the day after tomorrow.
This is also the reason why Tuoba Jiefen puts the heavy burden on the young Tuoba Liwei, because this smart child has the potential of the 1%. As for Tuoba Pig next to him, although he is also a hard-working guy
, but apart from muscles
, his growth in other aspects is really lackluster. Tuoba Jiefen himself has suffered enough from not having enough brains, not to mention that he has a brilliant father who uses his ingenuity to turn the Xianbei tribe into
The most powerful tribe in Mobei.
Moreover, it has to be admitted that Li Shushi and his soldiers from Xihe County gave Tuoba Jiefen a huge shock. Whether it was the cleverness of the surprise attack in the valley or Lu Bu's easy victory over his famous son and Tong
Yuan's martial arts performance in easily cutting through his own team of three thousand people, as well as his methodical command on the city wall of Lishi City, the common result of these performances was to label Lishi City opposite as a "strong one".
The grassland people have always respected the strong. Being able to learn from the strong is the only way to survive on the grassland. Learn from the strong and respect the strong until one day you can defeat the strong. This is like a phenomenon in biology.
The cruel competition model like the law of the forest has allowed the grassland people to develop to today's scale in the harsh climate and living environment.
And when the Tuoba tribe felt that their strength was enough, and they could compete with the former strong men on the grassland as long as they expanded the size of the tribe, the big man, or more accurately, the Lishi City where the elite gathered stood in front of them.
What should he do if he is in front of Tuobabu? Keep studying until he can climb this mountain in his eyes.
So, before the Xianbei tribes gathered the next day, Tuoba Jiefen issued an order. His second son Tuoba Liwei was going to choose his own playmates and form a guard of his own. He hoped that each family could
Cooperate.
Since the news that Helian was planning to take action against the Tuoba tribe was only circulated among high-level officials, and ordinary soldiers were blocked from the news in order to avoid irreparable consequences, the entire Tuoba tribe was relatively calm. In addition, as the clan leader,
Tuoba Jiefen announced such news, but the morale of Tuoba tribe was slightly improved.
For the grassland people, even children aged eleven or twelve often have rich experience in hunting and herding livestock, and then some of the better children are selected and brought to the battlefield to let them experience the atmosphere of the battlefield. These people often
After returning to the grassland, they will grow much faster than children who have never been to the battlefield. They are also an important source of the most elite warriors for each tribe.
Now the patriarch has to choose playmates for his second son, which means that these playmates can become soldiers of the Tuoba nobles when they grow up, and their treatment and status will be greatly improved. If they can perform well
And if you get the chance to get married, you will stand out and break away from the ranks of ordinary herdsmen. Well, it will be like those princes accompanying you.
In fact, it seemed that there was only one thing worth mentioning the next day. What? You said there was a siege?
Actually, there is really nothing to say about the siege battle on the second day. After the high-intensity attack on the first day, the Xianbei side obviously suffered greater battle losses as a siege force, even though they had more shamans and
The witch doctors can add various BUFFs to their own soldiers, making the Xianbei troops far more powerful than the Jie people. However, under the pressure of the Xihe County soldiers who are more skilled in cooperation, they have not played their due role. After all, they
It has never been able to build enough fighting width on the city wall.
What this means is that every soldier who climbs the city wall must face melee attacks from several Xihe County soldiers and long-range attacks from an unknown number of archers. In times of crisis, they may even be attacked by Cheng.
The magic attacks of Yu and others can kill an elephant even if there are too many ants, not to mention that the Xihe County soldiers are all termites.
Even if there is a chance for several Xianbei soldiers to form a fighting group and gain a local numerical advantage, they still need to face the sweep of those powerful generals from Xihe. Therefore, the Xianbei troops climbing the city can hold several passes for the follow-up troops.
It is already very difficult to continuously climb the city wall, and there is no chance to open up new combat areas.
This is also the greatest effect of Gao Shun's space squeezing tactics. Coupled with Peng Pai's defense against arrows under the city, the Xihe County soldiers can reduce the battle losses to a relatively low level, and at the same time give the opponent an extremely powerful blow.
Big blow.
So on the second day, although Helian was still clamoring that he could break through the opponent's city if he worked harder, the leaders of each department still secretly reserved some strength and no longer fought as hard as in the first attack. As for the Tuoba tribe, even more
So, if it weren't for the obvious passiveness and sabotage that would give Helian an excuse to deal with the Tuoba tribe, Tuoba Jiefen really wanted to withdraw his troops right now, and what kind of effect could the troops with this kind of mood show?
The strength can be imagined.
On the other hand, in Lishi City, yesterday's victory has further improved morale. At the same time, the reduction of losses has also given the officers and soldiers greater confidence in the results of training. The common people and powerful people also have greater confidence in the capabilities of the army.
, various self-organized logistics units allow Xihe County soldiers to focus more on combat.
So, when the Xianbei people's horns were blown again, and the day's battle was over, although the soldiers still felt very tired, they all felt a lot more relaxed than the first day's battle. This is a welcome change.
Naturally, Lu Bu and others grasped it, and Lu Bu made a clear conclusion - if the situation continues as it is, as the soldiers adapt to the high-intensity battle rhythm, in a few days, after a day of fighting, the soldiers may still be able to
Have the energy to launch a counterattack.
Yes, fight back. This extremely tempting idea has been wandering back and forth in Li Shushi's mind.
Judging from the current situation, the Xianbei people's move south this time should be said to be a huge failure. Not only did they not gain much benefit, but they also brought in many elite soldiers. So next year, or closer to this winter, they will
How to do it? I'm afraid he will come back very unconvinced, and he will definitely come here to avenge himself.
Once or twice may be a rare thing. Li Shushi can also incite the people's common hatred and common hatred to fight against the enemy. But if it happens too many times, although he can win every time, people will always die and they will always be worried. So,
For ordinary people, they would rather go to the south, which is relatively safe but has more exorbitant taxes, than stay in Xihe, which has good policies but is very unsafe. Therefore, Xihe will inevitably face the dilemma of large-scale people fleeing.
Without the people, there will be no richer selection of soldiers; without enough soldiers, the soldiers lost in the battle cannot be replenished in a timely and effective manner; the troops cannot be replenished, then the next battle will be more difficult; the battle will be more difficult, the people
Confidence in the military will also decline, and the rate of population loss will also greatly increase.
If this vicious cycle continues, one day Li Shushi will have to face the tragic moment of the fall of Xihe.
Therefore, not only must we win, but we must also use a great victory to beat the Xianbei people so hard that their whole body aches when they think of leaving Shicheng.
In this way, even if a small number of people will clamor to go to Xihe for revenge, more tribal leaders will consciously oppose this idea as long as they think of the tragic losses.
Driven by preferential measures, it entered a rapid development track and eventually became a solid fortress barrier in the northern Han Dynasty.
This was a small dream of Li Shushi and a promise he made to Emperor Liu Hong of the Han Dynasty.
Of course, the enemy's greed is endless, and there will always be fools who don't understand their own strength and will never turn back. Therefore, Li Shushi cannot guarantee that Lishi and even Xihe will never be attacked by the enemy.
But~ as long as Li Shushi can make the enemy calm down when he is still the governor here, it will be pretty good, right?
Therefore, for this goal, Li Shushi and everyone in Lishi City are waiting patiently, patiently gathering strength, and at the same time trying their best to stimulate the brain nerves of He Lian on the opposite side to make him stay angrily until Li Shushi sends out his message.
The day of the fatal blow.
Didn't the Xiaoke children's shoes on the board say: "Victory often and in most cases has a peak. The strong one who launches the attack will gradually become weak after reaching the peak; the weak one who defends, if he pays attention to accumulation
If you have strength, it will be possible to gradually change from weak to strong."
Li Shushi firmly believed in Xiao Ke's conclusion on the board, and his theory as a plagiarist also made everyone in Lishi City firmly believe in the "peak".
So, now, they are still patiently waiting for that exciting victory to come.
Of course, if they knew the undercurrent brewing among the Xianbei tribe, they would probably have more confidence in their plan.
