Chapter 114 Siege Battle

Shi Li Ai smiled and said, "The wolf master is brave and resourceful, extraordinary, and always has his opinions and calm. The one who really deserves the word ' wise' should be the wolf owner!"

"Actually, I know that my husband has been wronged a lot these days. But my husband has always been very calm and never complains, and he has always been conscientious, which makes me appreciate it very much. Wanyan Zonghan smiled with relief and said, "In fact, our army of Jurchens is different from the army of the Liao people and Han people. War is about survival, wealth and glory for our soldiers. Our army implements a system of fierce security and restraint based on tribal families. In the battle, everyone is equal and no one has the privilege. Officials such as Meng'an and Mou Ke will rush to the front, because if they act timid and cowardly, they can't convince the public. I am extremely vigorous, and it's the same. If you keep deadlocked like this and don't make any action, maybe one day dozens of fierce (equivalent to thousands of households) will run to my handsome tent and point to my nose and curse!"

Shi Liai nodded and smiled and said nothing. Of course, he knew the pressure on Wanyan Zonghan at this moment. Moreover, what Wanyan Zonghan just said about "ssing by pointing at the nose" is indeed not impossible.

Although Wanyan Zonghan, the second room, is extremely fierce with the commander of the Jinguo East Road Army, he can completely achieve "not to accept the fate of the foreign monarch", and there is no troubles such as the master of high merit. However, since he dares to beat the emperor Wu Qimai's buttocks, as long as he makes a mistake, the others dare to impeach him at the vigorous meeting, or "swear" him!

Thinking of Wanyan Zonghan beating Wu Qimai's buttocks, Shi Liai felt funny and quite emotional and admirable in her heart. Under the vigorous system of the State of Jin, their emperors are not as superior as the emperors of Liao and Song, and must also be controlled by the law and other vigorous supervision. When Wu Qimai succeeded to the throne, it was just as the Jin Kingdom had used troops for years, and the country was seriously in vain, and the treasury was empty and scarce. Therefore, the vigorous people began to practice thrift. Once Wu Qi was addicted to alcohol. He couldn't help secretly getting some wine in the treasury, but he was found by others. After knowing this, Wanyan Zonghan found other vigorous people and punished the emperor Wu Qimai according to the law. As a result, he really pressed Wu Qimai to the ground and beat dozens of plates fiercely!

I'm afraid such a thing will not happen to the emperors of any era; but in the Kingdom of Jin, it did happen. It is because of this incident that all the officials and generals in the State of Jin are now afraid to violate the law and begin to practice thrift.

Take Wanyan Zonghan as an example. He, a meritorious official who commanded hundreds of thousands of soldiers and a feudal official on the garrison side, never pays attention to food and clothing, and still maintains the simple and roughness of the Jurchens when they just rose up against Liao. Especially in the army, Wanyan Zonghan, who was dressed in thick clothes, was not eye-catching among a group of soldiers, and his food was exactly the same as that of an ordinary sergeant.

"Wolf Lord, I suggest - it's time to show Taiyuan Mansion a little color!" Shi Li Ai bowed his hand and said righteously.

"Okay, I'll wait for my husband's words!" Hearing that there was a war, Wanyan Zonghan, the commander-in-chief of the three armies, was as excited as other Jurchens. He stroked his hands happily and smiled. "But I really want to know that the reason why you agreed to go to war is just because you feel the pressure from the soldiers?"

"Of course not." Shi Liai smiled slightly and said, "If it's just like this, then my subordinates will mislead the country because of private expenses and wrong the army! - I think that since the second prince (Wanyan Zongwang) has defeated Yanshan Mansion and has a general like Guo Yaoshi under his command, he is bound to break through Hebei and hit the abdomen of the Central Plains. Ground! First of all, Guo Yaoshi, as the most reliable imperial general in the southern country, his Changsheng army is the only army in the southern country that can make a difference in Hebei. Yanshan Mansion is also the only throat portal in the southern country that can resist the invasion of Jvzhen iron riders. Now that Yanshan Mansion has been broken, Guo Yaoshi has surrendered, and the second prince has also appointed him to lead the Changsheng Army as the vanguard. There is no reason why it is not as powerful as a broken bamboo. Although the Southern Dynasty built three major military towns in Hebei, and there were many strong soldiers and horses in the city, these armies were still far from the Changsheng Army under Guo Yaoshi. What's more, they had to face the second prince and the iron horse of the State of Jin who could be used to fighting? Coupled with the corruption of the Southern Dynasties, most of the officials and generals were greedy and afraid of death. However, there was a wind and grass, and the other thought that it was important to save their lives. How could there be such a strong resistance? Therefore, I boldly guessed that the second prince was all the way, and the front of soldiers had reached the hinterland of the Central Plains!"

Wanyan Zonghan's eyes suddenly glowed, "If this is the case, then our purpose of 'encirclement and aid' here in Taiyuan Mansion on the East Road has been achieved. At least it has constrained the victory of the army deployed by the Southern Kingdom in Hedong, and will attract most of the attention of the Southern Court and the Western Army. Although the southern country ruled a million, the army that really has some combat effectiveness is nothing more than the Changsheng Army under Guo Yaoshi, the Shengjie Army under the command of Tong Guan, and the Western Army, which has been guarded in the Western Xinjiang to resist the Western Xia Kingdom all year round. Zong Wang took down Yanshan Mansion and recruited Guo Yaoshi. This matter was really beautiful. It changed the comparison between the military strength of our Dajin Kingdom and Nanguo, and it was even easier to sweep Hebei. One of the main reasons why I agree with the "siege without attacking" tactic proposed by the master is to contain the victory of the Jie army and the Western army and win more opportunities for Zongwang. But now, since Zong Wang has reached the hinterland of the Central Plains, our first step of the plan of 'siege aid' has been completed. Then the next - it's really possible to fight with Taiyuan!"

"Wolf Lord, I have to remind you that the movement of the second prince's soldiers and horses is completely my own guess!" Shi Li Ai said seriously.

"Since I've been working with you, I can trust you completely." Wanyan Zonghan said, "Moreover, I also believe in Zongwang's ability. Among our clan, in terms of the ability to march and fight, no one can compare with Zongwang, including me. He is the incarnation of the god of war of our Jurjin army. He is truly invincible and invincible. Since even Guo Yaoshi has surrendered obediently, no one in the Southern Dynasty can no longer be sharp. I guess he may have opened the seal now, haha! Of course, this is just a joke. No matter how brilliant he can finally achieve, as long as he sweeps Hebei, he has already completed the established military task. It is an unexpected surprise to take advantage of the victory to expand the results. Under such a premise, it is also necessary for our East Road soldiers to release blood to Taiyuan. Otherwise, the southerners thought that I, Wanyan Zonghan, was afraid of Wang Yu and couldn't beat Taiyuan City. When it came to your majesty and Zongwang's ears, I couldn't raise my head to be a man!"

"If you can defeat Taiyuan, it is the best; even if you can't defeat it, you should put a little pressure on the Southern Dynasty, which will help the second prince win and have more capital in the negotiations." Shi Liai said, "Whether it is by force or negotiation, Taiyuan, a place of throat, must be taken. Otherwise, this will become the biggest stumbling block for the Great Gold Kingdom to go south. So I agree with the wolf owner. Now it's really time to 'blet blood' Taiyuan and use force to deter those southern soldiers and civilians in Taiyuan City. If the second prince wins the Taiyuan Mansion through negotiation, we can naturally take over their city and army!"

"It hit the nail on the head, that's it!" Wanyan Zonghan laughed and said, "It's like collecting slaves or taming horses. If you want them to submit completely, you must first beat them down and then let them bleed!"

"Wolf Lord, wise!" Shi Li Ai smiled and bowed her hands.

Wanyan Zonghan nodded with a smile, and his eyes were as sharp as a knife. "Then it's settled, tomorrow - siege!"

These days, whenever Wanyan Zonghan was studying, Chu Tianya in Taiyuan City coincided to do the same thing with him. Today, Wanyan Zonghan and Shi Liai made a plan to start the siege tomorrow morning. Chu Tianya also wrote his first "note" after coming to the Song Dynasty, or logs and reading notes.

A good memory is not as good as a bad pen. Maybe when he turns these things out after ten or twenty years, Chu Tianya himself will suddenly remember that so many things happened in those years and met so many people.

When half of the writing, Xiao Linglong came as scheduled in the name of "Returning the Book".

"Did you finish reading it so soon?" Chu Tianya laughed.

"I only read a few pages, but I don't understand it very well." Xiao Linglong put the Seven Books of the Martial Arts Classics she borrowed from here on the table and said with an embarrassed face, "I have never read such a book before, and I feel a little obscure and difficult to understand. Why don't you teach me how to read it!"

"Yo, are you really determined to learn the art of war?" Chu Tianya put down his pen and smiled, "But this thing on paper is not very useful to learn. If you really want to achieve something, you have to lead the army to train and use the army in battle.

"You mean, I, a girl, won't have such a chance?" Xiao Linglong curled her lips gently, "I don't understand. Why can a woman not do what a man can do?"

"This is not strange! There are many things that women can do, but men can't do them!" Chu Tianya laughed.

"You're bored!"

"Where, I'm stating a serious fact." Chu Tianya laughed and said, "Princess Xiao, I can understand that you like to practice martial arts; but I think it's really superfluous if you want to learn soldiers and horses. There is a specialty in art. You should listen to Uncle He and concentrate on practicing your martial arts.

"If you don't teach, you won't teach. Why do you use the old man to oppress me?" Xiao Linglong rolled her eyes and got up to leave. "I'm leaving. Read your wooden book!"

"Well, don't worry!" Chu Tianya grabbed her hand and said, "From now on, I will teach you to read every day, no matter whether he is a military or a poetry selection, there is no difference!"
