Chapter 792: Shut the door and beat the dog
792. Shut the door and hit the dog
After thinking that the 20,000 Liang troops were here to support Dingxiang, Li Pojun had a plan, of course, the premise of this strategy was that the Liang army reinforcements did not know the news that Dingxiang had been broken, and they only broke through Dingxiang last night, and now they heard Su Dingfang say that the city gate was blocked, so this reinforcement must not know the news of Dingxiang's city breaking.
Li Pojun said excitedly: "The reinforcements of the Liang army must not know that Dingxiang has been broken, so we can plan and close the door and beat the dog."
When the generals heard this, except for Wei Chi and Fang Du, who didn't expect it at all, the other Su Liang people all understood.
"Does the general want to put the Liang army into the city to besiege and annihilate?" Su Dingfang also asked with a glint in his eyes.
Seeing Li Pojun nodded, Liang Baiwu, who was beside him, said with a little hesitation: "But there is no urn city in Dingxiang, and the enemy is outnumbered, how can this close the door and beat the dog?" "Liang Baiwu is still as cautious as ever, it's good to beat the dog this time, but there are too many dogs, and it's not easy to fight.
Fang Yiai said disdainfully when he heard this: "What are you afraid of, when the time comes, the brothers will rush to kill for a while, and those who shout will not be killed, so as to ensure that this group of cowards kneel and beg to surrender."
Fang Yiai's arrogant and unruly words ushered in the echo of a few people, and it is true, Liang Bing's combat strength is not good, not to mention, and the pseudo-Liang is in a corner of peace, there are few wars, Liang Bing is not beaten at all, the tailwind is okay, and when there is a headwind, it is to hear the wind and fall.
Li Pojun also nodded and said: "In the case of closing the door and beating dogs, although it is a bit of pressure for our army to kill 20,000 people, it is not impossible to try, in addition, the queue of 20,000 people is very long, and it should not all enter the city to ambush."
The generals also thought about it after hearing it, and they also responded, the Shence Army was a word in command, and only listened to Li Pojun, but it was not in formulating strategies, seeing that everyone agreed, Li Pojun also got up and shouted: "That is the case, Zhu Cheng listens to the order."
"Subordinates are in". Zhu Cheng came out a little in a blind circle and said, why do you call him a scholar about this war, he has always been in charge of logistics scheduling.
"Quickly go to the north city gate, persuade all the people near the city gate to leave, vacate the houses, avoid hurting the innocent, and make it clear to the people that all property losses will be compensated after the war, and Chen Junshou will send people to cooperate." Li Pojun said bluntly, there are many houses and shops near the north gate, and if you want to let the Liang army in to fight, you must move the people, and you also need to hide soldiers in the place.
Zhu Cheng and Chen Yufu responded when they heard this.
"Su Dingfang led the infantry army to hide in the alleys of the houses around the city gate, and Zhai Changsun led the cavalry to hide at the street entrance, and heard the sound of the general's whistle and arrows, and immediately attacked, and the general personally led the crane battalion and the pro-guard battalion at the head of the city." Li Pojun commanded directly.
When the two heard this, they responded to the order.
At this time, Li Zhen asked again: "General, how to defend the city gate?" "After Liang Jun enters the city, he has to close the city gate, block the city gate, and prevent him from going out, which is a very difficult task.
Li Pojun looked around and looked at Xue Wanche, Xue Wanche was stunned, and then he also came out of the queue and said: "General, the last general will ask for his life, he will definitely defend the city gate and not escape a Liang army."
Li Pojun also nodded, "General Xue is brave and extraordinary, and he is worthy of this position, and he will give you twenty Mo sword soldiers and twenty sword and shield hands, and you must stick to the city gate."
Xue Wanche responded with confidence when he heard this, with these forty iron-clad shield-wielding Mo sword soldiers and sword and shield hands, Xue Wanche has the ability to defend the city gate, after all, the city gate hole is so big, there will be no situation where the Liang army will rush into the encirclement.
After the order was given, the generals went to prepare for battle, and Li Pojun said to Chen Yufu: "Chen Junshou, I will rely on you later."
Chen Yufu shook his face, a little uneasy, wiped his forehead and sweated slightly.
He knew that he would rely on him, the county guard, to lure the Liang army into the city, Chen Yufu was not trembling, he was worried about Li Pojun, what a bold, 7,000 people ambushed 20,000 people openly, if this is not successful, then he ...... Isn't it completely over?
Under the fear, Chen Yufu also gritted his teeth and said: "Your Highness, there are still 700 guards in the minister's family, which can be used as combat power, please don't dislike Your Highness." These 700 guards are the means for his Chen family to save their lives, and now Chen Yufu has to grit his teeth and sacrifice it, if Li Pojun's ambush is defeated, then he, the culprit of the sacrifice of the city, Liang Shi will definitely not let him live well.
Li Pojun was also surprised when he heard it, and he also sighed, it would be good if this family was so sensible.
Immediately, he also said bluntly: "Chen Jun guards the righteousness, and he will not forget it, so you arrange for Chen Junwei to lead the Chen family soldiers plus the government service, and go to the camp in the west of the city to take care of the prisoners of war. Li Pojun, the combat power of the Chen family's soldiers and the government service, can't look down on it, and maybe it will be bad if they are arranged on the battlefield, so it is better to let them take care of the more than 7,000 prisoners of war.
Chen Yufu also breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, and responded directly, although he sacrificed the Chen family's soldiers, but he was not willing to let them die if he had to do so, it was good not to go to the battlefield, and it was at least much safer to hold prisoners of war in the rear.
Chen Yufu arranged to go up to the city tower with Li Pojun, looking into the distance, a yellow sand avenue, and there was no one yet.
These twenty miles are not close, Liang Jun came from afar, he is already tired, and it is estimated that there will be an hour.
Finally, at noon, I saw a piece of sand flying on the yellow sand road in the distance, and there was a lot of sand in the north, and 20,000 people walked up, and the whole sky was full of dust, covering the sky and the sun.
Chen Yufu's face turned pale, there are so many people, as the saying goes, once the soldiers are over 10,000, there is no shore, Chen Yufu put his hand on the pergola and looked at it, only to see that the sky was dark and oppressive, how could he not be afraid.
Seeing this, Li Pojun also patted Chen Yufu on the shoulder, "Don't panic, it's just a group of local chickens and dogs."
Perhaps inspired by Li Pojun's "unashamed words", or perhaps because he saw the murderous aura permeating the quiet streets of the city behind him, Chen Yufu also nodded and calmed down.
The 20,000 Liang troops rumbled towards the city gate, as if they could feel the earth shaking, and the gray dust filled the air, which looked extremely dry.
Liang Jun Zhongjun, dressed in golden armor, riding a high-headed white horse, holding a spear, Zhang Ge, who was showing off his might, licked his dry lips, waved his hand and shouted: "Liang Luoren, go to the city." As he spoke, he muttered and scolded: "I haven't seen the Tang army within a radius of dozens of miles, where anyone is attacking the city, it's obviously just greedy for life and afraid of death." ”
Zhang Ge was very unhappy, he never dreamed that he would become the general of Hulie, but he had to obey Du Chong's stunned guy, Zhang Ge was very unconvinced.
