The speaker was Shen Tan, who frowned and looked serious. Although he also believed that Lin Jue's wisdom was unparalleled, in this matter, he thought that even if Lin Jue's plan succeeded, it would be of little value. .He must speak clearly.
All the generals looked at Shen Tan and felt that Shen Tan's words were a bit excessive. What do you mean by ruining the whole situation? Shen Tan was too unsure of the army's ability to break through. Deputy Commander Shen has been very depressed recently, ever since he was reprimanded by the commander in public. , the whole person became weird, and it was really strange to say such words at this moment.
Lin Jue didn't care, and still nodded with a smile: "Deputy Commander Shen's worry is not unnecessary. Even if the 58,000 soldiers and horses besieging us are removed, the number will still be more than twice that of my army. If we break out of the siege, , even if we can successfully break through, I'm afraid there will be heavy casualties. They will not let us succeed easily. However...when did I say that we were going to break through?"
"..."
Everyone was shocked. After talking for a long time, everyone thought that Lin Jue was using a tactic to lure the tiger away from the mountain, tricking his opponent into mobilizing troops and horses to attack Funiu Mountain and create conditions for a breakout. Who would have expected that the military advisor would suddenly say such a sentence? Is all this possible? Not for a breakout? Then what is it for?
Lin Jue said in a deep voice: "My army occupies the hills and is as stable as Mount Tai. They dare not attack at all. Under this situation, we don't have to worry about safety at all. Why should we risk breaking out? If we save a little, we can still hold on to our food and grass. It's more than ten days, so there's no need to worry. If they don't attack, we'll just stay here. Why should we break out of the encirclement unless it's absolutely necessary?"
"But Commander...then what is the purpose of your plan?" Liang Qi asked, smacking her lips.
"That's right. If you don't break out and let the other side deploy troops to attack Funiu Mountain, isn't it true as the deputy commander said, but it will increase the danger to Funiu Mountain and Luoyan Valley? Originally, the enemy may not have thought of attacking Funiu Mountain, but now Could it be that we have reminded them? There must be no mistakes in Luoyan Valley in Funiu Mountain. If they really want to attack the mountain, we are afraid that we will have to break out and rescue them, otherwise the situation may really be over." Ma Qingshan frowned and asked urgently .
All the generals looked at Lin Jue nervously, and they were also very worried. They didn't know what the commander was thinking. This plan seemed a bit unpredictable.
"Everyone, please be more open-minded. The battlefield may not be just here with us. Can't we open a battlefield elsewhere? Isn't it better to invite you to enter the urn than to force a breakout?" Lin Jue laughed.
"What does the commander-in-chief mean...?" The generals seemed to have figured out some clues, but they were not sure.
"Three days ago, I ordered my wife Bai Bing to break out of the encirclement. Her mission is to convey the order and prepare to ambush the enemy attacking the mountain. They will set up a net and wait for the enemy attacking the mountain. As long as they fall into the trap and dispatch troops, they will be greeted with a head-on attack." Lin Jue said in a deep voice.
Everyone suddenly realized that the commander-in-chief wanted to lure the enemy troops to attack the mountain, and then ordered the soldiers and horses in the mountain to prepare for an ambush. But everyone immediately realized that the commander-in-chief's plan seemed a bit taken for granted.
"But... there are only more than 30,000 soldiers and horses left in the mountains. Even if we include the reserve regiment training horses, it is less than 40,000 horses. And the elites are all here with us. The soldiers and horses left in the mountains are actually limited in combat strength. And Mr. Ma Still in the capital, the only person leading the army in the mountain is Gao Muqing. I have no doubts about Gao Muqing's ability, but she is a female streamer after all, can she withstand the pressure? If the Jurchens mobilized an army of 60,000 to 70,000 to attack the mountain, what would happen with just tens of thousands of people in the mountain? Can you defeat him?" Shen Tan asked in a deep voice.
Shen Tan's words revealed the hidden worries in everyone's hearts. The soldiers and horses left behind in the mountains
The number and combat power are limited, and the more troublesome thing is that there is no decent leader. After coming out of the mountain, these troops and horses are handed over to Gao Muqing. If it is just a simple defense, Gao Muqing may be able to do it. If it is to deal with a large-scale enemy force I'm afraid Gao Muqing won't be able to carry out the attack. Besides Gao Muqing, Lin Hu is staying on the mountain as Gao Muqing's deputy. But although Lin Hu has experience in the past few years, he is still too young and has never experienced a large battle. I'm afraid he can't command Their combat capabilities are also limited. If the Jurchens want to attack Funiu Mountain, they must send out elite soldiers and horses, and the number will never be small. The people and soldiers left behind in the mountains will definitely not be able to withstand it.
"Deputy Commander Shen is right to worry. Thirty to forty thousand soldiers and horses left behind will definitely fail. But what if it is one hundred thousand? With one hundred thousand troops ambushing in a crucial place, does the enemy attacking the mountain still have a chance to survive?" Lin Jue laughed loudly.
…
In Bianliang City, the atmosphere was tense and depressing. Forbidden soldiers and horses were running around in the streets, menacingly. From time to time, soldiers and horses broke into private residences to arrest people, causing chickens to fly, dogs to dance, women to cry, and everyone to hide their faces and run away. If you dare to take another look at these things, you will be spotted by soldiers accidentally, and then you will be arrested and interrogated. Bianliang City, the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty, has fallen from the most prosperous and livable city in the Great Zhou Dynasty. This is not the case in Bianliang City. This is the first time in the memory of the people of the city.
The Zhou Dynasty was founded for more than 150 years, and the people of the capital city have experienced a lot. Many major events, which may be like thunder and frightening people outside the capital, are not considered major events in the eyes of the people of Bianliang. Even if there are changes in the imperial court, battles in the palace, and conflicts in the court, they will eventually become the talk of the people in the capital after dinner. Because they have experienced too much, they are not surprised. All the people in the capital are better than those outside the capital. People understand a basic truth, that is, no matter how the superiors fight, no matter what happens in the court, no matter which prince ascends the throne and becomes emperor, as long as the Great Zhou Dynasty is not destroyed, the day will remain the same and nothing will change.
The life of the rich in Bianliang is very comfortable. Get up in the morning, eat crab roe buns from Zhangjiazheng store, and drink Dahongpao of Longjing tea brought by merchants from the south. Then go to Wazili to listen to games, and at noon go to Fanlou and Panlou Have a sumptuous banquet and listen to music in such a large restaurant. In the evening, go to the Yun Pool on Bianhe Street to take a bath, and then go to the Goulan brothel to hang out. This day will be moisturizing and comfortable. Even for ordinary people , their lives are also interesting. They each have their own favorite teahouses and street snacks, and they also have places to relax after work. These lives are unshakable and interesting. As for the major events in the DPRK, It's a big show on the stage in the cloud, and it doesn't have much to do with ordinary people's lives.
They have seen a lot and heard a lot. Over time, the people of Bianliang have developed the temperament of being at the feet of the emperor and the people of the capital of Bianliang. They are calm and calm, and will not worry about things unfounded or panic. .They have a more magnanimous and lazy temperament, and a little more proud temperament that is considered unique to the people of the capital.
Even after Guo Xu killed his brother and father to seize the throne, the entire capital was strictly controlled. And then when the Northern Expedition of the Great Zhou Dynasty failed and the entire Great Zhou Dynasty fell into a state of decadence and disappointment, the imperial court increased taxes and fees. , when people all over the world were complaining, the people of Bianliang did not despair because of these things. Although life was tighter, they did not lose hope for the future. They believed that no matter what, they were at the feet of the emperor. The people in the capital will not have no way to survive, and everything will be fine.
However, everything changed in just a few months. This bizarre and cozy place
The prosperous metropolis in Bianliang turned into a dead city in a short period of time. The psychology of millions of people in the city experienced a process of falling from the clouds to the ground and then into hell. In just a few months, the people of Bianliang
All of a sudden, they fell from a comfortable and lazy state to a difficult situation. All their pride was shattered.
Too many things have happened in the past few months. The sudden attack by the Jurchens and Liao people did not cause panic among the people in the capital at first. What the people in the capital thought after experiencing great storms was that this was just another border town.
It was just a war. In the past, the Liao people often invaded the border, and news of border wars often came. This is nothing new. The only difference is that this time it was because of Yang Jun’s failure in the Northern Expedition that led to the Liao war.
The revenge of the people also comes with a white-eyed wolf Jurchen to join in the fun. This war will eventually be the same as the wars in countless border towns. Either the Great Zhou will win and everything will calm down. Or the Great Zhou will be defeated and they will take money to apologize. What should I do?
It's still the same, you should eat and drink as you should, it's not a big deal.
However, what they never expected was that the Jurchen army and the Liao soldiers and horses moved from east to west with overwhelming force, defeating hundreds of thousands of Zhou Dynasty soldiers and horses, and attacked all the way to the capital. Until then, Bian
The people in Liang City suddenly realized the huge danger. They became extremely panicked. However, by this time, Bianliang City had sealed four cities and no entry or exit was allowed.
Then came the death of Emperor Guo Xu and Lu Zhongtian's rise to power. The people were not fools, they smelled a strange smell, but at this time, they only wanted to protect themselves and had no time to care about anything else. If Lu Zhongtian could really protect them,
If it was safe, they wouldn't mind listening to Lu Zhongtian's words. But what Lu Zhongtian did plunged them into the abyss. Lu Zhongtian issued an order to recruit food, materials, property and manpower, put the entire city under martial law, and levied
Food and supplies were ordered to be rationed. From the moment this order was issued, all the people in the capital became refugees. Lu Zhongtian took everything away from them, only dividing it into very small portions per head, euphemistically calling it "to tide over the difficulties."
Contributing all his strength to the great Zhou Dynasty. In fact, he took the opportunity to deprive all the people of their property, making them suddenly become beggars under Lu Zhongtian's knees. Many people understand that this is actually Lu Zhongtian's method of controlling the entire city and the people.
With centralized control of food and supplies, he controlled the people in the entire city and could drive and enslave them at will.
Curfew, blockade of news, and brutal suppression of those who resisted were Lu Zhongtian's means of strong control in the capital. In the government's propaganda, Lu Zhongtian was simply the hero who saved the Zhou Dynasty. Good news came one after another. Why did Lu Xiang lead the army?
Defeated the Jurchen army attacking the city and annihilated the enemy to a certain extent. Why did Prime Minister Lu force the Jurchens to start a peace negotiation? The Kingdom of Zhou Dynasty was protected, and the war was in sight. The Funiu Mountain bandits took advantage of the opportunity to cause chaos, and were trapped somewhere and almost the entire army was annihilated, etc.
The streets are filled with a group of government officials who wander around beating gongs every day, spreading these news all over the world, deceiving the people of the capital. Of course, regarding Guo Xu's death, there are also
They blamed it on the Luoyan Army rebels and said how Lin Jue and Guo Kun brutally killed the emperor. The emperor could have lived well in the Jurchen camp, and he would return safely after the peace negotiation was successful. These news are full every day
In the streets, they were forced into people's ears and they chattered endlessly.
The people of the capital were imprisoned in this huge animal pen in Bianliang City. They were completely blinded, deprived of their freedom, and deprived of all their means of living. They had actually become hostages in the hands of Lu Zhongtian.
