As they said this, the two of them laughed, letting go of their grudges.
All the grudges of the past have been resolved.
"This battle is very dangerous!" Liu Xiu sighed: "I hope I will never fight such a battle!"
In the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Zhuge Liang is constantly plotting, loves taking risks, and plays with fear. However, in the history books, Zhuge Liang does not like taking risks at all and is extremely cautious.
"It's too scary to take such risks. It's best not to play with such a victory!" Liu Xiu said.
"I don't want to be like this, but the Song Dynasty is too weak, so we can't do it without taking risks!" Yue Fei said: "There are 80,000 prisoners at the moment. With less than 20,000 Yue family troops, it is difficult to control them... It is better to trap and kill them!"
"That's inappropriate!" Liu Xiu said: "Morality is secondary. Our army is too small in number and needs to be expanded. These prisoners are the best soldiers... Han Xin ordered troops, the more the better!"
Looking at Yue Fei, Liu Xiu suddenly felt like he had recognized the wrong person.
He always boasted of being able to discern people, but he still misjudged the person. Yue Fei was not Han Xin, but Xiang Yu.
In a single battle, Xiang Yu is invincible, and even Han Xin is no match; but in terms of overall layout and strategic control, Xiang Yu is not only one level behind Han Xin.
This is the difference between a famous general and a marshal.
Generals only need to consider the victory of a certain battle, which is more about tactical thinking; but marshals control the overall situation from various angles such as politics, economics, and diplomacy.
In terms of pure battle command, the Jin army was not Yue Fei's opponent at all. However, in terms of overall layout and overall thinking, Yue Fei was far behind. No wonder there is a history of "killing flies to seek peace".
The so-called Marshal Yue is called wrong, he should be called General Yue.
"General Yue, what's going to happen next?" Liu Xiu asked with the test.
"The Jin Army was defeated in this battle. They must be terrified and wait for reinforcements. The reinforcements of the Jin Army will arrive one after another, and we are in danger. For the current plan, only the Song Army from the south will attack to contain the Jin Army's rescue. And reinforcements will be sent from the sea.
If there are 100,000 troops, they will be enough to defeat the Central Capital!"
Yue Fei talked about his plan.
The victory in this battle was very dangerous.
Most of the main forces of the Jin Army were on the front line of the Huaihe River, the Shaanxi area, or Jingxiang and other areas. Those who stayed in Zhongdu only had second-line troops whose combat power was much inferior, so they achieved such a victory. However, such a victory is difficult to imitate.
Once the Jin army defends the city, it will be enough for the Song army to do nothing.
Liu Xiu smiled. Yue Fei always looked at the Jin army from the perspective of the Song people, but he did not understand the thinking mode of the Jin people, nor did he understand the thinking mode of the Han people in the north.
"No need, maybe tomorrow, Youzhou City will fall!" Liu Xiu said lightly: "There will be Han people in the city anyway!"
…………
Defeated!
The one hundred thousand gold army was defeated!
The defeat was miserable, at the hands of the Song Army, which had always been looked down upon.
Even the Song Army's sudden appearance in Zhongdu was surprising. But no one took the Song Army to heart. Back then, a few hundred Jin Army cavalry could defeat several thousand Song Army troops. More than 30,000 Jin Army cavalry could defeat them.
Hundreds of thousands of Song troops.
But now the situation was reversed, and the 30,000 Song army defeated the 100,000 Jin army.
In the battle, there is no defensive battle to defend the city, and there is no skill to speak of. There is only a head-to-head duel to kill.
On the side that the Jin Army was proud of, the Song Army defeated the Jin Army.
In this battle, victory or defeat is reversed!
It seems that the Jin Army has become the Song Army of the past, and the Song Army of the past has become the Jin Army.
The destruction of one hundred thousand Jin troops was nothing to the hundreds of thousands of Jin troops occupying the north. But behind the casualties, the Jin army, which had always been arrogant, became suspicious and fearful.
If the Song army was so powerful, it would be extremely difficult not only to pacify the south, but also to hold on to the north.
The Kingdom of Jin was shaken from top to bottom, and no longer had the invincible momentum.
Killing people is the most terrible thing. Killing the enemy is the next most terrible thing.
In the city, there were many Han soldiers and many Han people, who were also wavering.
There are more than 20 million Han people in the North, including less than one million Jurchens. The pure Jurchen army is less than 200,000. With an army of 200,000, how to control almost 20 million Han people depends on invincible momentum.
With the reputation of being victorious in every battle.
But with the battle outside the city, the weakness of the Jurchens was exposed, and it turned out that the Jurchens were not invincible.
Suddenly, people's hearts were in a state of flux, and the Han people who had surrendered had different thoughts.
The Han army in Zhongdu had all kinds of thoughts flashing around.
The world is very realistic!
Among the Han people in the north, those who would rather die than surrender have long been turned into corpses. To the people, the Jurchens are certainly hateful, but they are afraid of the Jurchens' power and can only surrender.
For many people, paying taxes is not about who pays taxes.
In the Song Dynasty, they were treated like oxen and horses; in the Jin Dynasty, they were still treated like oxen and horses.
They are both cattle and horses, why should they fight for a different master, or fight to the end, preferring to die rather than surrender? It's just a change of master, it's not worth it.
Many people were afraid of the sword and surrendered one after another.
But now, the Song army reached Youzhou City and defeated the Jin Army's 100,000 troops. People's hearts immediately began to rise. The reason for the rise in people's hearts was not that they loved the Song Dynasty and wanted to eat pots of wine and welcome Master Wang... but because of the Great Song Dynasty.
This big ship of gold is about to sink.
It's not worth it to give up your family fortune and your life to be buried with him.
Living in troubled times, everyone is smart and just a loser. If the wind is strong at one end, you will fall to that side. This is the way to survive.
At this moment, after defeating the 100,000 Jin army, the Song army began to gain momentum, and the grassroots began to waver.
…………
At night, countless details came into action and persuasion continued.
The storm was about to come, and the whole building was filled with wind. Zhongdu, which was already restless, became quiet.
Outside the city, the Song army was preparing for war. Liu Xiu, Yue Fei and others were all neatly dressed, waiting for the signal from Zhongdu City.
In the front are the returned troops, preparing to attack.
The returned army was the Jin army that surrendered, and most of them were Han people from the north.
Among the captured Jin troops, those who were unwilling to surrender were mostly killed; as for the rest, most of them surrendered. Many northern Han people did not have much objection to surrender.
Following the strong is the human heart.
There was no time for united front work and no time for ideological education. After submitting the "letter of surrender" simply and crudely, many surrendered Jin troops were cut off from their retreat. It seemed that their lives were sublimating and their combat power was horribly improved.
"really……"
Liu Xiu seemed to understand.
The Han people in the north are the elite soldiers and the soldiers who can fight. As for the people of the Southern Song Dynasty, they are too weak and can pay taxes, but most of them cannot fight.
Today's night attack is about to begin, and the regular army will take the lead.
The time for the reformed army to atone for their sins has come, and the time to make meritorious deeds has come!
