Sure enough, someone contacted the Han Army to discuss what treatment they would get for the impending uprising?
Liu Yan had received no less than 20 letters before. The lowest position of the letter was a school captain and the highest was a miscellaneous general. Among them, there was huyansheng, the Tiger wing General of Shijie. Their letters only talked about one problem. They could surrender or lead an uprising. Some did not ask for any reward, but only for life and freedom, while others asked for official positions or money.
One day, Yao Yizhong guessed too right. Now the Central Plains doesn't talk about integrity or morality at all. Under the mixed multi-ethnic situation, betrayal occurs all the time.
Liu Yan and Ji Chang are discussing how to use it. The front-line officers came to report important information. There are women singing in the enemy camp, which is still a very sad love song.
There should be no noise in the barracks. It's about the measurement of control. In ancient times, it was not allowed to sing in the army at will, because it was generally believed that singing would make soldiers homesick, shake the hearts of the army, and make the hearts of the people scattered and the team difficult to lead.
"The enemy camp has a song, and no matter what song it is, it means Yao Yizhong has lost control." Sang Yu spoke quickly and excitedly: "Sir, first agree to the requirements of those people and focus on defeating the enemy."
Just now they were watching a letter from the enemy general and Colonel, discussing whether to agree to the request or not. According to Liu Yan's meaning, no matter whether the situation is favorable to his own side or not, only those who can agree can be agreed, and those who can't agree can be directly refused.
Many people don't understand why Liu Yan did that. Their idea is to promise first and wait for me to make fish for the knife. What can those who surrender.
Liu Yan insisted on the issue of credibility. He believed that the credibility of the Han Dynasty was not cheap enough. Compared with the gains and losses of a war, credibility was the fundamental thing to be maintained.
Really, few people understand Liu Yan's insistence. They have repeatedly advised the thought of "soldiers, deception", believing that as long as they can win easily, it's nothing to lose some credibility.
Perhaps those people are right to say that the battlefield can not talk about credibility. After all, since the spring and Autumn period, the military culture of China has always talked about not reaching the goal by any means.
The classical war has long disappeared with the end of the spring and Autumn period. The thought of deception is full of the military core of Chinese civilization and spread to any non military. Perhaps it is ridiculous to talk about credibility to the enemy, but is it really good not to talk about credibility? Will the whole nation no longer trust integrity and morality and become unscrupulous in failing to achieve its goal?
Liu Yan has his own persistence, and his reputation is never cheap, even for the enemy. It doesn't matter how strange and cruel the layout of military strategy is, but as long as it is promised, whether to yourself or the enemy, commitment is commitment. It may seem a silly behavior. It may be really stupid for ordinary people, but it is not stupid for rulers. It is safeguarding the future of a country and a nation.
"Chang is the commander of the army." Ji Chang 'ha ha' smiled and said, "but you Chang promised those people. Everything has nothing to do with you."
Liu Yan immediately laughed bitterly. He glanced at the people present, looked at their expectant expressions, and said solemnly, "what treatment should be given to those who voted to surrender books, subject to their wartime performance, and will be evaluated after the war."
Sang Yu wanted to persuade again, but Ji Chang held his clothes and shook them.
If it is foolish to stress credibility, Liu Yan, as the ruler, decided to be so stupid. Even if he looked pedantic, he would not easily waste his credibility.
How ridiculous it is to say that credibility is evaluated as pedantry... It can even be said to be a sad thing? Well, for example, the old people who fall when they are picked up can be broadcast on the news network, and the return of money has become an example that needs publicity. What kind of society should it be?
At present, few people will understand Liu Yan's behavior, but when the Ministry of Han established the country and waited for some things to happen in a series of wars and expansion in the future, they will praise their monarch's persistence, and future generations will sincerely rejoice in the tone set by Liu Yan.
With all kinds of complicated feelings, everyone except Liu Yan stepped down. At that moment, Liu Yan looked at the back of those people and smiled bitterly. Only after experience can he know what's terrible. It can't be said that there is something wrong with the cross flow of material and the supremacy of money, but the basic trust between people can't be lost.
The mentality of those who wanted to turn against the rebels who received the reply from the Han army was complex and unspeakable.
"Liu... Liu..." huyansheng wants to directly call Liu Yan's name, but he is likely to eat under Liu Yan's command soon. How can he directly name him? He continued to spit out two syllables, and finally said vaguely: "that one didn't make a vow. Does he don't care about our opposition, or...?"
Yin Bi hesitated and said, "this may be a good thing. If we take all the responsibility, we should worry."
Huyansheng now represents the Huns and some zahu in the army. He is the first commander of the Qiang army in the war between the unified army and the cavalry of the Han army. After a series of wars, he is really scared by the Han army.
Yao Yizhong looks very normal, but Yao Yizhong's normal is extremely abnormal in this situation. Huyansheng is completely not calm after learning that Yao Yizhong ordered people to collect war horses. It can be explained that Yao Yizhong wants to counter attack, but what does it mean to close the horses in the core camp rather than outside? Huyansheng judged that Yao Yizhong wanted to break through, and Yao Yizhong wanted to break through without his own lineage.
For Yin Bi, it is true that he was promoted by Yao Yizhong on the battlefield, but it is not true to confirm the subordinate relationship. He learned that Yao Yizhong wanted to break through and didn't inform himself. He gave full play to the temperament of the Jin people in the Central Plains after the chaos in the world, that is, looking for a next home.
Taking advantage of his position, Yin Bi first contacted the Jin people in the army. When he wanted to contact zahu, he found that someone had started first. He found that it was huyansheng and soon hooked up with huyansheng.
It is not only Yin Bi and huyansheng who find the situation bad, but their positions are relatively high. This group is growing as Yao Yizhong's confidants began to collect war horses roughly, and some conflicts have intensified. As a result, the Han Army outside the camp is attacking, but the atmosphere inside the camp is getting more and more strange.
I don't know whether the Qiang people did it first or the people from huyansheng and Yin Bi did it first. Originally, people in a team had the first fight, and the conflict spread like a spark. Finally, the openness of the contradiction led to big killings in the camp.
Liu Yan, who received the news of the civil strife in the Qiang stronghold, was not surprised by what was expected. He attached importance to: "are the troops arranged for interception ready?"
Because there were traitors in the Qiang army, the Han army was not unaware of Yao Yizhong's collection of war horses, so it can be determined that Yao Yizhong had to rely on cavalry to break through.
It's not easy to stop a cavalry that doesn't aim at fighting. Especially the nearby terrain is flat. If the cavalry want to escape, they can only rely on a defense line organized by people.
"The cavalry ready to pursue are ready, but..." Ji Chang said with a wry smile: "our troops are too few, and there are only two blocking lines that can be organized. Any more will dilute the defense line and may even be annihilated by the enemy."
"As long as we leave more enemy troops, we can achieve our goal." Sangyu was sincerely pleased that the war was coming to an end and said easily, "if they want to break through, they must pass through zhu'a county. Haven't interceptors been arranged there?"
Sang Yu is talking about Huanwen office.
Huan Wen's army has expanded to 70000, with 25000 War soldiers, and the rest are auxiliary soldiers, servants and new auxiliary troops. Their location is not flat, but some places are convenient to set up blocking lines. As long as they can stop Yao Yizhong's breakthrough army until Liu Yan or who leads the army arrives, they will form a double attack on Yao Yizhong's headquarters.
The double attack in the field is not the kind of way that takes place in the camp battle. If it can really form the double attack, it is uncertain whether it will kill Yao Yizhong, but it is still certain to destroy the vast majority of the Qiang troops.
The arrangement has been arranged. The next step is to see whether the soldiers are working hard. This is true for Liu Yan and the same for Yao Yizhong.
There were mutual killings in the Qiang camp, and some traitors made way for the Han Army or acted as a guide party. As a result, Yao Yizhong, who was not fully prepared, had to make a quick decision to break through.
The war horses trampled on the earth and roared. Too many horses trampled on the earth, resulting in a continuous sound. The sound of horses' hoofs completely covered up the rest of the sound. I don't know how many cavalry were ordered to rush no matter what happened. If something blocked the way along the way, they would hit. They didn't need to stop before they got a new command, even if there was a sea of knife, mountain and fire in front.
There is no knife mountain, but there is more than one sea of fire
"Are you ready?"
"No."
"Hurry up!"
"What's the hurry? Wait for them to rush in."
The conversation was endless, but if they could smell the smell, they would ask about the strong smell of fire oil. The soldiers holding fire folds were shaking all over. They were afraid and excited. As long as they ignited the fire, they would cause a fire for miles around.
The soldiers hiding in the grass depend on their luck. If they are unlucky, the enemy's breakthrough troops rush from their direction. Whether they jump up or run, they can't escape the fate of being trampled by horses' hooves.
Too many war horses are stepping on the ground. If they lie on the ground, they will definitely feel an obvious sense of vibration. The soldiers hiding to set fire are shaking. Without hypocrisy, more than one soldier's crotch is wet.
The Qiang cavalry galloping on horseback rushed ahead in the face of strong wind and darkness. Anyone who has ever moved forward at a very fast speed should know that the wind will greatly reduce people's sense of smell, so that the vast majority of Qiang cavalry don't smell the smell of fire oil at all. Some Qiang cavalry who smell the smell of fire oil yell but are covered by the sound of shocking hoofs.
First, a horn sounded, followed by a specific action or a large number of light spots. They had tried their best to restrain the soldiers from pulling out the fire fold. They still needed to blow a few times to make the fire fold burn, and then ignite it.
Have you seen how fire oil burns? It was a kind of fire oil ignited by Mars, with a "bang" sound of fire and smoke, and then the fire spread like a running "sliding" and gradually the whole ground was full of fire, and the black smoke soon filled any place that could be occupied.
Liu Yan was watching. Beside him stood all the scribes in the army.
For the scribes, there is nothing for them at this stage of the war. They need to wait for the end of the war before they are busy again.
Correspondingly, Liu Yan doesn't have half a general beside him except the guard warrior. Now as long as he has the opportunity, the martial arts will go to the battlefield to make meritorious contributions
"Can this stop Yao Yizhong?" Sang Yu looked at the flames and black smoke rising into the sky in the distance and asked, "how long will it burn?"
Liu Yan said: "the fire oil will be exhausted in the first wave of combustion, depending on the density of grass and shrubs. It will not be difficult to destroy the first cavalry. It is impossible to burn for a long time."
Those are the common sense of objects. Modern people have not been exposed to relevant education and can't understand them. Objects are completely strange to the ancients.
No one will survive the fire. It is not only the lethality brought by the fire, but also the smoke that kills the most people.
In fact, when a fire occurs, not the most people die directly from the burning of the fire. They are in a coma after inhaling too much smoke. If they don't get out of the fire in time, they must be burned into coke after suffocation. Even if they get out in time, they can live only after professional rescue.
The burning area is very wide. It is speculated that more than 4000 Qiang breakthrough troops will be eliminated at one time, which will also block the rest of the Qiang troops behind.
I don't know when in the Qiang camp, people everywhere shouted "kill one save yourself, kill two redeem relatives, and kill more with prizes". The meaning of that sentence is very clear. It is shouting at the non Han army who defected. If an enemy soldier who defected kills one, he can live. If he kills more than the second, he can redeem himself. If he kills more than one, he can exchange rewards for anyone who wants to save.
The Han Army has few troops, but Yao Yizhong is already breaking through, so it is impossible for Liu Yan to invest more troops in attacking the camp, coercing and luring those anti enemy enemy soldiers to kill more of their own people. There is no more appropriate way than this.
Facing the sudden fire in the breakthrough direction, Yao Yizhong was a little numb at this time. He was forced to invest his troops in the direction of blocking the rebels and the Han Army, and was also trying to find a new direction to break through.
Naturally, a spark can start a prairie fire, but how long it can burn depends on many factors. Yao Yizhong is deeply impressed by the surrounding environment. The fire is not likely to burn for too long. They can break through again as long as the fire becomes weaker and the smoke is not so thick.
"If... If..." Yao Xiang's face turned pale: "if there were similar ambushes?"
Yao Yizhong grinned and showed his yellow teeth, slightly ferocious: "there must be similar traps, but we still have to rush!"
