Chapter 24

"Guo Lianhua died, and the emperor went on stage to do it himself. The prestige of Taoism among the people has been transferred to the imperial court."

The generals also said with regret:

"The general is a clever plan, what a pity."

Originally, it was possible to take down the city without bloodshed, but such a scheme was easily deciphered by Tiao Dashen, which made people helpless.

"It's not a pity."

Zhang Huaiyang said seriously:

"Because of this, this general also understood the ability of Emperor Zhaowu."

"ability?"

It was a Han general who was the first to react and said:
"They can see through the general's strategy, so Liuding Liujia's defense of the city will certainly not be aimless."

"good."

Zhang Huaiyang uttered a few words: "Strike halfway across."

"hiss"

The generals in the tent were all frightened into silence.

Attacking at half-cross means that we attack while the opponent's soldiers and horses are crossing the river.

Because the opponent is crossing the river, the soldiers and horses who have crossed the river are easily defeated by local numerical advantages due to lack of organization and defensive formation.

Secondly, the troops who are crossing the river are very embarrassed, and it is difficult to advance or retreat.

In the current situation, the river has become a city.

What if the Han army wanted to wait for the Donghu army to enter the city, and close the city gate while the army was halfway through the city?
The city gate was wide open, but did the defenders at the gate really withdraw, or were they lying in ambush?
And from the point of view of the morally corrupt emperor of the Han family, this little chick is full of conspiracies and tricks, and it is very likely that he is planning to do this, so he has to guard against it.

However, some radical generals objected: "What if it's a fraud?"

"Cheat?"

Zhang Huaiyang asked calmly, "What are you cheating?"

"There are [-] soldiers in the city, and our army is only [-]. It is not easy to attack by force. Is it necessary to use this method to defend the city?"

"What can you do other than procrastinate?"

"This"

The general was speechless.

Finally someone couldn't hold back his temper: "General, what shall I do?"

"Of course it's waiting, otherwise you go to the ambush?"

Zhang Huaiyang lost his temper for a while, and showed the majesty of the general at the right time:
"Let him plot and schem, the food roads are still cut off, and the city's supplies are still in short supply."

"Time is unlimited, but food and grass are limited. No matter how much he procrastinates, it's just a matter of living a little longer."

Everyone changed their minds, yes, food and drink cannot be created out of thin air.

Call Liu Ding Liujia to do a trick, do you really think you are a fairy?
Even if the people live frugally and send food, how long can it be delayed?
So all the generals praised loudly: "What the general said is true!"

"I'm waiting for Master Wang to attack with the king's way, why should I care about small tricks!"

Zhang Huaiyang leaned on his sword and issued orders: "Strengthen the security of the barracks!"

"People are patrolling day and night, and guard posts are densely set up along the way, and don't stop when looking for horses!"

"The city gate is wide open to facilitate our entry into the city, and it is also convenient for the Han army to leave the city. Beware of night attack!"

The generals admired him from the bottom of their hearts. As expected of General Zhang, he really considered everything.

No wonder the Great Khan would hand over the Southern Army to General Zhang. This kind of war of destroying the country is all about safety.

He was killed in the first battle, his bones were crushed, and he must not leave the slightest chance of resurgence.

Zhang Huaiyang thought of something, and called another messenger to say:

"The opportunity to open the city gate can't be completely ignored. It's more convenient for three or five people to sneak into the city."

"You sneaked into the city and got in touch with the Yuwen family. In addition, there are..."

The aristocratic family will not take action because of one or two letters of persuasion, but Donghu people will personally send envoys, and there will be some talk.

In Qiongzhou City, Yuwen's mansion.

"Sir, this is the envoy of the Donghu people."

Yu Wenzan held back his excitement, and introduced Dong Hu to the old man who had just finished grooming his gray hair.

He had secretly communicated with the Donghu people before, and it was his side who sent people to communicate through letters. This was the first time he saw Donghu people in person.

"I am a member of the Qiyan tribe."

The Donghu envoy took his seat with his head raised higher than the bridge of his nose. He glanced at the old man and asked:

"This is the think tank that Patriarch Yuwen relies on?"

The old man approached the first two steps and said modestly:

"The old man is just a low-level scholar, so he can't be called a think tank."

The Donghu envoy looked impatient, took a heavy leather bag from his waist, and deliberately threw the leather bag on the table, making a loud crashing sound:
"The general rewards you."

"The inside and the outside should cooperate to attack Qiongzhou City, and there will be rewards."

Yuwen Zan twitched the corner of his mouth, I am the patriarch of the Yuwen family, do you want a tip from you, a pawn in front of the car?

How much is a small leather bag worth even if it is filled with gold, silver and jade?

If it weren't for the threatening situation, the Donghu is powerful, and the death of Qiongzhou City is at stake, I would have chopped it up for you on the spot!
"What horse piss?"

The envoy of Donghu didn't care what Yu Wenzan thought, knocked over the tea on the table, and said impatiently:
"Bring me some wine!"

"Yes Yes Yes"

Yu Wenzan quickly apologized and asked his servants to prepare wine. When he turned his head, he found that the envoy of the Huns who had been arrogantly ordered just now had fallen into a pool of blood.

"Sir?"

The old man wiped the dagger in his hand: "Are you unhappy?"

Yu Wenzan wiped the sweat from his forehead, bent a little:
"Happy is happy, but this is the envoy of Donghu, if Mr. kills him, something big will happen!"

"Staying is the big deal."

The old man changed his voice and asked:

"What does the head of the family think of the emperor's summoning of Liu Ding Liujia to guard Qiongzhou City?"

Yu Wenzan snorted and straightened up:
"Immortals are really useful, why do big men do this?"

"But Liuding Liujia is useful."

The old man narrowed his eyes and said, "The Liuding Liujia can be a useless deception, making Qiongzhou City even more dangerous."

"It can also be an unknown variable, it can only depend on luck and opportunity."

"However, in the hands of the emperor, it has become a tactic."

The old man paused, and seemed to sigh: "As long as it is used properly, Qiongzhou City can be defended."

Yu Wenzan was puzzled: "How can a mere deception and Taoism become a tactic?"

The old man pondered for a long time, and said: "The way to conquer a country is to attack the heart and attack the city as the bottom; to win the heart is the top, and to win the army is the bottom."

Yu Wenzan's eyes lit up: "Sir, you are a great talent, and you can tell the secrets of attacking the city in just a few words!"

"Siege of the city is the same, as everyone knows, the defense of the city is also the same."

The old man said slowly: "The strategy of Liu Ding and Liu Jia is nothing more than making Donghu's army suspicious and fearful, so that they dare not act rashly."

"If the enemy's strength is weak and the morale of the army is unstable, it will indeed have a deterrent effect."

Yu Wenzan objected: "The army of Donghu is powerful and numerous in number, and it takes advantage of the many to defeat the few."

"Besides, the Southern Expedition has been victorious and the morale of the army is stable. How could Liuding Liujia play a role!"

"people."

The old man pointed to the corpse of the Donghu envoy on the ground: "The commander of the [-] army is not a radical and fierce Donghu, but a Han."

"It is Zhang Huaiyang who is known for his steady and steady progress step by step."

"Zhang Huaiyang marched south, slowly encroaching on the territory of the Han Dynasty. The most famous thing is Wen."

"Others will not hesitate at all because of the plan of Liu Ding Liu Jia, but Zhang Huaiyang will definitely stand still."

"This plan is not attacking the hearts of one hundred thousand Donghu soldiers, but the hearts of Zhang Huaiyang!"
