She Song

Chapter 223: Tooth extraction and claw cutting

Including the recovered prisoners of the Xi army, Xiao Qian received a total of more than 100 people, and more than 200 disabled were left in hospitals and prison camps.

This shows that in the Battle of Jingzhou, more than 600 people from Xi's army were killed or fled. Xiao Qian had no time to lament. There were still tens of thousands of tribesmen waiting to capture Jinzhou and live their own lives.

So he explained the situation straightforwardly: "Wanyan Zongwang is coming. Han Xiaoyao invited us to kill these Jurchens together. He promised to let us Xi people govern themselves after taking Jinzhou. Therefore, I decided to cooperate with them so that the Xi people can continue. , this time the risk is very high, you decide for yourself whether to participate or not!"

There was a buzzing sound immediately, and many people found it difficult to accept it for a while. After all, the Zhenguo Army was also an enemy, so why did it suddenly become an ally?
Finally someone stood up and asked: "Your Majesty, are you no longer the emperor?"

Xiao Qian nodded and pressed his hands on the man, and said: "It's my fault. I thought it was too simple at the beginning, so many people died in Jingzhou, and the people of the clan were in danger in Jianke Mountain. Therefore, I have decided: No longer an emperor!"

Someone else asked worriedly: "I can't trust the Zhenguo Army. They are using the Jurchens to destroy us!"

"It's not impossible. It's even said that many people in the Zhenguo Army hope that we all die, but..." Xiao Qian raised his head and looked at the evening glow, and said with emotion: "Rather than live a cowardly life, I would rather choose to fight hard." A handful!"

Someone else asked: "We must fight hard, because we are afraid that if we all fight, the Zhenguo Army will still not be able to defeat the Jurchens..."

Xiao Qian smiled and asked: "The Jurchens are looking for the Zhenguo Army, so they will fight tooth and nail. In order to kill Wanyan Zongwang, they have already mobilized their entire army, so they may not have a chance. As for us, we will lead the Jurchens to the scene." Just go to the prefectural city, and the casualties may be more than [-]%..."

Thirty percent casualties are very scary for every army, but Xiao Qian knew that this time was extremely dangerous, and he would be thankful to God if he could survive even half of it.

At this point, Xiao Qian said: "We just came out of the labor camp. We should have a few more days to recover, but we only have two days left, so if you don't want to work, you can go back!"

Someone asked: "Can it really be done?"

Xiao Qian said: "There is an old saying in the Song Dynasty that 'people decide what to do and what to do depends on heaven'. Therefore, success or failure is God's will! But the Jurchens have sworn hatred with us. Even if we can't win, I will fight." One game!”

Xiao Qian's words aroused the hatred of Xi people, yes, the Jurchen listed Khitan and Xi people as targets of arrest, many relatives and friends died under the Jurchen butcher's knife, and each other had long since had a bloody enmity.

"Your Majesty, the Jurchens killed six members of my family. I will follow you to kill the Jurchen dogs!"

"Count me in too!"

"And me!"

As more and more people joined, Xiao Qian gradually felt at ease. More than 2000 people could attract Zong Wang to a certain extent. However, the final result was better, with a total of 700 people voluntarily participating in the "fishing" operation.

Although the remaining nearly 400 people hated the Jurchens, they were unwilling to put aside their prejudices and join hands with the Zhenguo army because their relatives and friends died in the Battle of Jingzhou.

There was no blame or anger. When Xiao Qian sent them away, he warned: "If we die in battle with the Jurchens, you will be the fire of the Xi tribe. No matter what, you must lead the tribe to live well!"

Someone burst into tears immediately!

Xiao Qian decisively explained the situation to Xiao Yunhe.

When Xiao Yunhe received the roster of officers and soldiers from the Xi Army, he said: "The horses and equipment are all arranged, you go directly to Jingzhou tomorrow morning, and Commander Yuan will tell Uncle Liu about the specific deployment. If there are other requirements, Yunhe will definitely comply!" "

Xiao Qian thought for a while, took out a mutton-fat dragon pattern private seal from his arms and handed it over.

Xiao Yunhe read it several times without understanding the purpose: "Uncle Sixth, what are you..."

Xiao Qian said unnaturally: "You know, no one can predict life or death on the battlefield. If...if I hit the target, you can give this to Minister Zhuo."

Xiao Yunhe looked at Yanjing City behind him, then at the dragon emblem in his hand, and said with a smile: "Uncle Six, don't you leave a few words for me?" Xiao Qian said decisively: "She showed mercy to Jingzhou, and After treating my injuries, I have nothing to offer now, so there’s no other reason! Well, by the way, if I’m still alive after this battle, you don’t have to give it away!”

Xiao Yunhe smoothly put the dragon emblem into his arms and said with a smile: "That's right, Uncle Liu, you are lucky and have a great destiny, so nothing will happen to you! I will just keep it temporarily until Uncle Liu comes back and deliver it in person!"

He immediately mounted his horse and left the Xijun camp.

……

Since the decision to encircle and annihilate the Jin Army in Pingjing was made, the war machine of the Yanyun Legion has been in operation. According to the deployment, various participating troops have successively assembled in the Pingjing area, and the logistics, medical, and transportation teams of the Yanyun Management Committee have also Received the order to go out.

Li Azhuang's artillery battalion was strengthened and had a total of 120 guns, but it was divided into three.Among them, 75 were in Pingzhou, [-] in Yanjing, and the remaining [-] Hanwang artillery were all concentrated in Jingzhou, specifically to deal with the Jurchen cavalry attack.

Reserves entered Yanjing City to perform defensive tasks. Among them, 1 Class A troops were temporarily transferred to strengthen the defense of Jizhou and Shunzhou.

The Ministry of Civil Affairs began to carry out the work of strengthening the walls and clearing the country, calling for and helping the villages near the possible march routes of the Jin Army to evacuate.

Fortunately, the information was obtained in advance, so the Ministry of Civil Affairs still had two days. Otherwise, if the Jurchens broke into these villages, who knows how many people would die.

Han Xiaoyao came to Jiang Que'er and asked, "Tell me more specifically about the Battle of Pingjing. How do your special forces plan to cooperate?"

After the special operations brigade was expanded into a brigade, the number increased from 1000 to 800 to [-]. All the special operations members had special skills and had no fear of the Jurchens.

Jiang Que'er had already been holding back his anger for not being able to take the main attack this time, but when the master asked, he could only say: "I obey orders and obey orders. I don't fight or fight!"

Han Xiaoyao knocked on the table and reminded the other party: "It's understandable to have emotions, but you can't be negative, and you can't affect the deployment of the battle! Give you half a stick of incense, think about what the special forces are used for? I don't understand, I am now I've given up your command!"

Seeing Han Xiaoyao's solemn expression, Jiang Queer immediately realized that there was something wrong with her mentality and reorganized the task.

According to the deployment at the meeting, the special operations brigade was hidden in the southern suburbs of Jingzhou and cooperated with the First Division and the Cavalry Brigade to encircle and annihilate Wanyan Zongwang's troops.

Since I came here, I must want to know "how to cooperate"?Moreover, I just mentioned what the special forces are used for, so...

Jiang Queer immediately realized that it was not easy to encircle and annihilate tens of thousands of Jin troops this time. The special forces had strong combat power and flexible tactics. Just playing soy sauce would definitely not work.

"Wait for opportunities to harass and delay the enemy's troops, take advantage of the chaos to snipe and kill the opponent's senior generals, cut off the opponent's supplies anytime and anywhere, disguise the main force to disperse the enemy's troops, always pay attention to the battle situation to check for deficiencies, and never let an enemy escape!"

Seeing Jiang Queer realize his mistake, Han Xiaoyao nodded and said slowly: "Ordinary troops are responsible for the tactical level, but the special forces are at the strategic level. Your vision must be higher, farther and wider, not just for the current battle situation. , we must also consider the situation of the next stage of the war.

For example: If Pingzhou is lost, what should Yanjing do?Or, after annihilating Zongwang, how to attack Jinzhou?Moreover, you must be good at discovering the advantages and disadvantages of your opponents, and make full preparations for better combating the enemy! "

Seeing that his apprentice had some enlightenment, Han Xiaoyao knocked on the table again and said: "Don't always think about going to the battlefield to fight with the enemy with swords and guns. That's the biggest fool!

Kill a centurion, and the threat of the opponent's 100 people will be reduced by half; burn a cart of food and grass, and at least 500 people will not be able to eat... Cultivating a special force is ten to twenty times that of ordinary soldiers. You can't settle the score? Can not be done! "

Jiang Queer completely understood the actual intention of Han Xiaoyao's request for "cooperation".

"Master, I'm going to pull out the teeth of the Jin army and chop off their claws!"
