Chapter 637: Attack on the Heart
In a big battle, easily defeat Yecheng.
Jiang Hao immediately ordered the army to enter the city, count the supplies, arrange accommodation, confiscate the food and livestock of the people in the city, and then drove away thousands of Shache people directly.
Where to go?
Of course I rushed to Shache City.
With a few more mouths, Shache City will only be more chaotic and heavier.
In ancient wars, there were often city slaughterers. Jiang Hao did not massacre the people but drove them away. This was the greatest kindness. Therefore, no one scolded Jiang Hao, and only said that the commander of the Han people was really a kind person.
I'm fucking,
It turns out that happiness is really a comparison.
Yecheng is only thirty miles away from King Shache. It only takes half an hour for the cavalry to reach this distance. It can be said that Jiang Hao's flag has already penetrated into the throat of Shache people, and it is still the thick and long flagpole.
The Shache people must be uncomfortable.
Yecheng had already reserved some of the military rations and supplies. The Western Regions coalition forces plundered the people's food, livestock, cattle and sheep, and these things were enough for Jiang Hao's army to eat for two or three months.
Yecheng has now become the base for Jiang Hao to attack Shache.
A few days later, when he received the message sent from Shache City, Princess Dilinaza presented to Jiang Hao, "This is the information sent back by the spy team."
Jiang Hao drove the Shache people in Yecheng not only to snatch food and increase the burden on Shache City, but also a more important reason is that it can allow a large number of spies to sneak into the fugitives and enter Shache City to understand the situation of Shache.
In modern society, information and intelligence are the most important, and in ancient times, it was the same. A useful intelligence can often determine the outcome of a battle. Jiang Hao has attached great importance to it since he formed the army.
And divided into two categories,
One type is the real military scout, with Cheng Yong in charge, and the other is the secret spy. At the beginning, more than a dozen people he selected were in action, and the scope of the investigation also included the internal situation of Jiang Hao's own army.
After all, the situation of his military personnel is too complicated and he has to be prepared for it.
Now that the Western Regions coalition has been formed, Jiang Hao pays more attention to the fact that the spy team has grown and grown. Because the team is getting bigger and bigger, Jiang Hao has also made more and more affairs. Jiang Hao handed over some of the spy networks to Dilinaza for management.
This girl is very smart. Through Jiang Hao's words and deeds, she soon mastered the intelligence network and became Jiang Hao's true confidential secretary.
After reading the information sent, Jiang Hao smiled on his face, "Shache asked for help from Kucha and released 10 carrier pigeons a day. It seems that Shache King is very anxious."
Dilinaza also smiled, "You are forced by King Shache. Tens of thousands of troops are in the forefront and occupy the second largest city. He can attack him at any time. Naturally, he is scared all day long."
Jiang Hao hooked his fingers at Dilinaza. Princess Dina blinked her big eyes. She knew that the man had bad intentions, but she still walked over obediently. Jiang Hao's face slowly stretched over and approached Princess Dina's ear and said, "Why do you feel very happy now when you see the enemy being forced to jump into your feet?"
The breath of Jiang Hao's speech made the fluff in Princess Dina's ears fluffy. Princess Dina felt that her ears were itchy and she shrank her neck slightly, but the smile on her face became stronger and stronger.
"Yes, it's very happy, waiting for the day when the general put him in a cage."
"Haha, it won't be long."
Princess Dina's neck was a little red, and Jiang Hao's lips were getting closer and closer. She thought Jiang Hao was going to kiss her, so she was so scared that her eyelashes flew up and down, like a butterfly shaking her wings.
But then, Jiang Hao walked over sideways, opened the door, and directed Jin Damao outside the door: "Call the generals of various departments and say that I have an action arrangement, come and have a meeting as soon as possible."
Princess Dina looked at Jiang Hao's back as she gradually moved away, and bit her little silver teeth in anger.
When he arrived at the combat hall, all his subordinates had arrived. Jiang Hao pointed to the map and said, "It seems that King Shache will not come to take the initiative to attack us. Since he doesn't come out, let's fight. Now listen to my order."
Hurry!
Everyone stood up.
Jiang Hao said: "Two thousand war soldiers in Yanqi, two thousand war soldiers in Yuli, two thousand war soldiers in Shanguo, and one thousand war soldiers in Loulan, a total of seven thousand people, follow our troops to defeat Shache City."
The princes of the four kingdoms immediately bowed to answer the order.
"Border herdsman, German herdsman, you are adjacent to Shache, and you know Shache the situation best. You lead two thousand people under your command, and the remaining one thousand people from other countries, scattered and robbed the villages and towns around Shache."
"Remember, don't kill people at will. If you don't resist, don't kill them. Snatch their food, cattle, sheep and livestock, and then drive them to Shache City, and transport all the stolen materials back to Yecheng. We must prepare for a long-term battle."
The Border Horseman and the German Shepherd agreed immediately, but the Border Horseman asked: "Does the Protector, are you going to drive away the Shache people? Do you want them to do the siege shield?"
The siege of the city is to use the lives of ordinary people to force King Shache to open the city gate. In ancient wars, especially in wars between the two races, this situation occurred from time to time, and there were many precedents of the Han people being driven to call the city.
Jiang Hao shook his head.
"No, it is King Shache who is guilty, not the people. I will not do that. I drive all the Shache people to the city to get them into the city. The more people there are, the less food there is in the city, and the shorter the last time I can hold on."
"What if King Shache doesn't open the city gate?" someone asked.
Jiang Hao smiled faintly, "Then he will lose the hearts of the people. A king who loses the hearts of the people, a king who is not supported by others. So what if he owns Jinshan? If the hearts of the people are unstable, the morale of the army will be unstable. His demise will only be faster and more thorough."
Jiang Hao's trick can only be described in one word.
damage!
Too damaged.
"The Three Kingdoms·Shu·Biography of Ma Su" says: The way to use troops is to attack the heart is the best, and to attack the city is the best. The heart is the best, and the war is the best.
......
The flags were everywhere, and the cavalry team opened a long line, raised countless flags, and lined up outside the Shache King City, stopping two miles away from the city wall.
When Shache defended the city soldiers saw this scene, they felt cold.
The generals guarding the city kept shuttled back and forth, and ordered the soldiers to carry arrows and stones, ready to welcome the enemy's attack. King Shache and a group of officials and generals also stood at the top of the city, frowned and looked at the endless enemy team in the distance.
"Do you think they will attack the city?" King Shache asked a general next to him.
The general didn't know what the other party was going to do. "The king, I didn't see the enemy's engineers and no siege equipment. The possibility of siege today is not high."
Rumble!
A team of cavalry with about 200 people suddenly rushed out of the Western Regions Allied Forces and rushed to a distance of 200 meters in the city wall at a very fast speed. When they arrived here, they were not moving forward, but were swept forward quickly while throwing arrows onto the city.
Whoosh swish swish swish ~~
A rain of arrows hit, and the soldiers guarding the city were shocked and shot arrows to counterattack. After the two sides shot randomly, no one could do anything about each other. The cavalry team quickly returned to the coalition forces.
Is this over?
King Shache was very surprised at the enemy's offensive, which was too ridiculous.
Rumble~~, another cavalry team of two or three hundred people rushed out, and shot at the top of the city again, and counterattacked at the top of the city, and the cavalry team ran away again.
After several times of this, the people who were guarding the city were surprised.
This kind of siege can never be conquered in a lifetime.
Then,
They saw that in the enemy's team, they actually started to build a pot and burrow the stove, and smoke rose up. Damn, I actually started cooking.
Is this over?
What's the thing?
After almost an hour of meal, the cavalry rested and got on their horses again. The flag was fluttering with the wind, and they were more energetic than before.
Someone among the officials of Shache immediately smiled and said to Shache King: "Master, the other party's coach is a fool. He doesn't know how to attack the city, and he doesn't know how to fight. We don't have to be afraid of him."
"Well, I guess these people are all mobs, and our country is worry-free." Someone said.
But some people disagree with the statements of these two people. The prime minister frowned and said, "I don't think so. The other leader's move must have profound meaning. I'm afraid that they have a trick, so we must be careful."
It was already afternoon. The people of Shache watched the enemy eat, and they were already hungry. King Shache immediately ordered the soldiers to eat at the top of the city, and he and the ministers arranged meals in the battlements and started to eat.
But after taking a few bites, a general guarding the city rushed in and reported loudly: "Master, it's not good. The enemy has driven many people in our country, and they are almost at the city."
King Shache and the ministers were shocked, and immediately put down their bowls and chopsticks, stood at the top of the city and watched. A crowd came from a distance, with all the people wearing Shache costumes, with about two or three thousand people. Behind the group, there was a cavalry slowly adorning them.
Not long after, the people of Shache ran to the city, and the team returned to the enemy team.
The people under the city saw the king on the top of the city, and some people shouted: "His Majesty the King, those people have robbed our food, cattle and sheep, please beg your Majesty the King to be kind and open the city gate and take us in."
"Please let us enter the city, the king."
The people below kept shouting, causing a sneering sound in the fields.
King Shache frowned. He was not stupid. If these people were allowed to enter the city, what would the enemy do if they rushed in while opening the city gate? Besides, there are so many people, how much food is needed. Now there is not much food in Shache City. The four or five thousand people who escaped from Yecheng before have already made Shache City feel more stressed.
"What do you think should be done?" asked King Shache.
At this time, a voice said, "Lord, you cannot open the city gate. This is the enemy's conspiracy."
"Yes, you can't open the city!"
These two people are talking about the two fool officials just now.
The prime minister looked at the people who were begging at the city and said, "Your Majesty, the enemy is two miles away. Even if the city gate is opened and they are allowed to catch up with them, the enemy will not be able to catch up with them. These people are all the people of Shache. How can they let them wail under the enemy's butcher knife?"
"What if the enemy takes the opportunity to come in?"
"How can we raise so many people in the city? There are enough people in the city. The current food can only be maintained until the prince sends troops to rescue him. We can't afford to support more people."
"Yes, this is also the enemy's vicious plan, and we will be defeated!"
These two fools are not all stupid, they can still see through this.
The prime minister looked angry and said, "However, letting the people ignore them is the best way to do so, it will inevitably damage Your Majesty's reputation."
"What's wrong with this? As long as the eldest prince sends troops to fight away the enemy, these people will naturally understand it. They are afraid that they will fail." said one of the two fools.
Everyone looked at King Shache.
