Chapter 53 Killing the Game
After using thunder to deal with the dispute between the two armies, Xu You immediately convened a military discussion, and He Ru, on behalf of the Military Office, issued a combat plan. To sum it up, it is only eight words: bluffing and attacking the heart.
Jiang Ziyan raised objections, believing that the combat plan of the Joining Army Department would not be successful, and not fighting desperately in the war, and bluffing would only make the enemy laugh.
Xu You once again showed respect for Jiang Ziyan, listened to his opinions very seriously, and ordered He Ru to give further explanations on the plan. Although he did not get Jiang Ziyan's approval in the end, he also expressed that the Fengjie Army was willing to obey the order.
Then, the navy ships arranged in front of the pass, as if they were scattered, and then shot a large number of books of persuasion into the enemy camp with a catapult and a powerful bow and crossbow. Any surrendered shall be upgraded to the military ranks in the Tianshidao, and shall be rewarded with different gold, silver and wealth. If they resist stubbornly, they will not be kept after breaking the pass, and will be killed, and will also affect their wives and children.
Now Xu You's reputation for fighting has resounded across the north and south. When he learned that he was the leader of the Qutang Pass, the generals under him were under great pressure. The people had been panic and were even more afraid when they were persuaded to surrender. They were even more afraid. They ordered the confiscation of the surrender books, and even used military methods to kill dozens of soldiers who had secretly stored the surrender books, which made people angry and vaguely ready to move.
But the Chu army was not finished yet, and she actually went out to build the capital. Hundreds of people stood in line at the bow of the ship, loudly spreading through the banks of the Yangtze River, loudly preaching the various policies of the Chu army, what preferential treatment for surrendered soldiers, what rebelled against the water and made meritorious contributions, the slogan was simple and easy to understand, but it was very inflammatory. Then she analyzed the situation of the enemy and us, Xu You destroyed Liang and drove Wei, and Cui Yu army had the power of the hundreds of battles. The national strength of the Chu State was far superior to Yizhou, and there was no good ending with the Tianshidao.
Finally, we began to reveal all the scandals of the Tianshidao. From Sun Guan to the high-ranking priests, they were all portrayed as arrogant, extravagant, despicable, shameless villains, but they were famous, surnamed, nose and eyes, and their speeches were vivid and vivid, which was a hundred times more exciting than those in tea shops and wine shops.
Tianshi Dao rode on the neck of the Taoist people to act as a blessing, sucking the flesh and blood of the Taoist people, controlling the body and mind of the Taoist people, and then driving the Taoist people to sacrifice their lives to die in order to fill their desires.
This is Xu You who processed and recreated artistically through the novel routines of later generations, focusing on the excavation of details, making the story extremely real, and thus affecting the will of the defenders.
The Qutang garrison was shocked three times a day and couldn't sleep well. That night, he was wearing clothes and wandering around the courtyard. He was assassinated by Qingming. The deputy general completely lost his fighting spirit and led his troops to evacuate Qutang and headed to Yufu County to repair it.
After dawn, the Chu Navy burned seven iron locks, but Xu You did not use a single soldier and occupied the natural danger of Qutang!
Then Yu Fu conquered for a long time, but Xu You refused to chase him, and let the defeated soldiers flee. He followed him without any rush or slow down. It took only more than ten days to conquer the eight counties and approach Jiangcheng.
At this time, Jiangcheng gathered more than 4,000 defeated soldiers who fled back from the front. Their general Xu You described as a god, who could shoot 800 miles with one arrow and kill 100,000 troops with one sword. He blew his breath and the river flowed backwards. When he glared, the little master would vomit blood and die, which was beyond the control of human power.
The negative energy of these defeated soldiers completely affected the combat effectiveness of the Jiangcheng defenders. Sizhudu appeared again, but he still had three tricks, first talking about policies, then the situation, and then the story. This time he received a miraculous effect. That night, someone in the city turned against him, causing serious riots. Xu You took advantage of the situation to attack the city, and until dawn, he only killed or injured more than 100 people, and occupied this important town in eastern Yizhou.
During the Battle of Jiangcheng, more than 10,000 thieves were captured. Xu You followed the example of the past and set up several Guiyi camps. He drew up the expert staff from the Supervision Department to carry out brainwashing work. He washed a group of them and reorganized a group of them. When the Battle of Yizhou ended, he would pay travel expenses to go home and farm. Those who were willing to join the army would enter the prefectures and county soldiers to be responsible for the daily security maintenance of the city. He would not expect them to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy. As long as they did not waste military pay and do some personnel, they would be fine.
"The first phase of Jiangcheng's regaining has been basically achieved. How to march next? Everyone has discussed it. Former General, why don't you talk about it first?"
In the prefect of Jiangcheng, Xu You sat in the main seat and presided over the military discussion. Dozens of generals in the hall were divided into left and right, and Jiang Ziyan was the first in the right.
Xu You leaned forward slightly, looked directly at Jiang Ziyan, with a kind smile on his face, and was very polite. His attitude could not be said to be low, but at least it was an equal attitude.
Jiang Ziyan had no expression on his face and sat still, saying, "I haven't thought about it yet, so why not listen to the opinions of other generals."
Xu You smiled and said, "The former general is too modest... Then, let's come first."
He Ru stood up and said, "The Military Office believes that it is necessary to concentrate troops, go upstream from the internal water, attack Zitong, and then attack Guanghan, and finally aim at Chengdu..."
This is Di Xia's old path, but this is also the established route to pacify Yizhou since ancient times. The victory lies in steady progress, without any worries, and all the generals have no objection.
At this time, everyone looked at Jiang Ziyan. He thought for a while and said, "I think the troops should be divided into two groups, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one should be able to break through the whole way, and one by one, one can reach Chengdu, causing chaos in the enemy's army and have a greater chance of winning."
He Ru smiled and said, "Did the former general want to follow the last attack on Shu? But the situation is very different now and then. Tianshidao learned from the lessons of the past and strengthened the defense of the two counties of Dongyang and Jianwei. The troops were about 20,000. The sixth-ranked priest Han Changce was led by the sixth-ranked high-priest Han Changce, who was defending the city. If our army did not have more than 50,000 troops, it would be difficult to open up the external water... The most important thing is that our army was relatively superior, but if we divided the troops, both sides would become disadvantages. The former general was a person who knew the troops. With my weaknesses and the strengths of the enemy, how could he have a chance of winning?"
Jiang Ziyan said lightly: "If the general agrees, I am willing to issue a military order and lead 20,000 Fengjie Army, which is enough to pacify Dongyang and Jianwei, and then defeat Nan'an, Wuyang, Guangdu, and meet with Cuiyu Army outside Chengdu."
He never mentioned the Jingzhou army, which clearly did not take the opponent's combat power seriously. Dan Tai Douxing snorted coldly, but remembered the lesson he learned in Badong, and was so smart that he did not refute it in court.
Face, go to the battlefield to earn!
He Ru stopped talking, Xu You said: "Former General, it's too risky to divide his troops! Information shows that Han Changce was promoted to the junior master last year, fighting bravely, daring to fight and rushing, which is not easy. Jianwei and Dongyang counties have a long depth and a huge detour space. Once the battle is not decided quickly, it will fall into long-term consumption. He has a good place and a harmonious place. The Fengjie Army confronts alone, which is probably unpredictable."
"General..."
"Okay, this is a military order!" Xu You said in a gentle tone, not like he usually issued military orders to others. He smiled and said, "You and I have received the kindness of the Lord. Since we are here together, we should return together. However, the war is fierce and dangerous. If you are not careful, you will only make your relatives happy."
The implication is that you are the person the emperor values, and I have to be responsible for your personal safety. Otherwise, how can I explain after returning to Beijing?
Jiang Ziyan had no choice but to obey the order.
Since the strategic route was determined, the improvement of tactical details was handed over to the Military Office. A celebration banquet was held at the prefect's office in the evening to celebrate the great victory of conquering Jiangcheng.
Xu You personally toasted, and many people were drunk, but the scouts were released for more than twenty miles and left enough troops to carry out three-dimensional defenses inside and outside the city, so they were not afraid of Tianshidao sending troops to attack.
The troubles were not until midnight, and the generals dispersed one after another. Jiang Ziyan, the two military deputys of the Fengjie Army and five lieutenants were about to leave, but were kept by Xu You and invited them to drink tea and enjoy the moon in the back garden.
The general had to give him the face, and Jiang Ziyan and others followed Xu You intoxicatedly. The back garden was not elegant. After all, Jiangcheng had been repeatedly warned in the past few months. Although it was repaired, the knife marks in the pavilions and towers could still be seen.
The hospitality spot chosen by Xu You is a pavilion located on the top of a rockery. Sandalwood is lit at all corners. The breeze blows away the sultry heat of the scorching heat, making people feel refreshed and very comfortable.
The tea set was set up, the guest and the host sat down, Xu You poured tea for everyone with his own hands, and said with a smile: "My brother, the military discussion in the morning is not my fault. It is really hard to disobey your order. I want me to take good care of you, so don't let you take risks alone again..."
Jiang Ziyan suddenly realized that no wonder Xu You did not seek trouble as provoked by the ghost master as he had guessed. It turned out that the emperor had privately advised him before leaving the capital.
"The time to lead the army during the holidays is still short, and the strategy is not the director. The military department is full of talents, and the formulation of tactics is far better than me. Today, Japan should not raise objections, which will make the general embarrassed."
Since Xu You pointed out the emperor, Jiang Ziyan had to say a few beautiful words, otherwise he would slap the emperor in the face.
Xu You looked very happy and raised his glass and said, "Come on, everyone tastes it. This is new tea, you can't drink it elsewhere..."
Jiang Ziyan drank it all in one go. He believed that Xu You would not be stupid enough to poison the tea. He was a poison master. If it was really poisonous, he would know it by smelling it, and he would not be able to deceive him.
The others quickly picked up the cup and drank tea. Xu You's face suddenly changed. He turned his head and looked at the sandalwood in the northeast corner and said, "Six days of worry-free soul fragrance... Come, protect the former general..."
Worry-free soul fragrance!
Jiang Ziyan's ears were like thunder blew up, and he was staying on the spot for a moment. Isn't Wuyouhun Xiang his exclusive secret technique? No one in the world should know this name except the ghost master. Could it be... the ghost master sneaked into here and wanted to attack Xu You?
wrong!
He knew the layout of the ghost master clearly. Now is not a good opportunity to get rid of Xu You. The family and old party in the court have great influence. Xu You must be ahead so that they can get along with each other and develop slowly. This is a big plan and will never change suddenly.
Moreover, the fragrance in the pavilion is just ordinary sandalwood...
Jiang Ziyan finally reacted and heard a few plops. A military deputy and five lieutenants all fell to the ground and fell into a coma.
However, before they fell into a coma, they all heard what Xu You shouted.
Jiang Ziyan was cold all over.
The poisonous thing is not sandalwood, but tea cups used by military deputy and lieutenants to drink tea.
This is the killing game set by Xu You!
