Chapter 952: Planning to Steal the Camp

Speaking of the ancient formations, it is actually very similar to the maze game played by modern people. And modern people play maze games on paper, which is just like the formation diagram of ancient times.

If you draw a plan of a maze on paper, the player will see it very clearly, but even if you see it clearly, it will be difficult to find the correct path in the maze in the first place.

And if the player is immersed in the real maze building, it is a thousand times more difficult than finding the way on paper?

At this time, this large array in the south of Yanjing City was like this.

The cavalry of the Jin Kingdom were in a daze in the sea of flags and had no power to struggle, but next to the female wall at the head of Yanjing City, the Tianzuo Emperor Yelu Yanxi overlooking below could see it clearly.

Yelu Yanxi was already a dragon-faced person, and he couldn't stop praising it: "Wonderful! It's really wonderful! There is such a formation in the world, and it comes from my Great Liao Army, which is really the blessing of my Khitans!"

The formation under the city is really wonderful, there are special people to cover the flag and set up obstacles, special people to carry out attacks, special people to arrest them, special people to collect the dead bodies and transport them outside the formation, and even special people are responsible for collecting those uninjured war horses, leading them to the city wall, just waiting for the number to be counted and transported to the city.

If we use the things of later generations as a metaphor, this is simply a professional production line that kills people and robs horses, and the people on the assembly line have their own division of labor, perform their duties, and do things in an orderly and orderly manner.

Standing high at the head of the city, of course, he can also see the whole process of the fierce generals led by the Jurchens trying their best to escape, but Yelu Yanxi is not annoyed because he ran an enemy general, what he needs now is such a big victory to boost the morale of the Khitan nation, and 10,000 gold soldiers will be slaughtered in the array, which is already beyond his expectations.

"Wu Yanguang is really handsome!" While being happy, he couldn't forget to boast about his ability to recognize people, especially when Yelu Dashi was next to him, he had to let Yelu Dashi know how wise he was to replace his cousin with Wu Yanguang.

Of course, Yelu Dashi will not worry about these things with his cousin, it is good to win, and if he wins, everyone will be happy, after all, he does not want the Liao State to be destroyed, and he does not want the Khitan people to become slaves of the country.

The kings and ministers of the city head congratulated together, and the atmosphere was extremely festive for a while, and Emperor Tianzuo said on the spot that he wanted to reward Wu Yanguang, so he ordered someone to call Wu Yanguang up.

After this battle, the 200,000 soldiers who formed this formation set up camp in the south of Yanjing City, and the camp was also arranged in accordance with the formation, and the 200,000 soldiers took care of their own food and lodging, and the grain and grass were regularly transported out of the city.

Hearing the emperor's call, Wu Yanguang immediately entered the city, and then came to the city.

As soon as he saw Wu Yanguang, Yelu Yanxi praised him fiercely, but Wu Yanguang was embarrassed to praise his merits in front of Yelu Dashi, and he was very humble for a while, but found that Yelu Dashi who was standing on the side was not smiling, and there seemed to be some hidden worry between his eyebrows.

Wu Yan Guang suddenly remembered Wanyan suddenly fleeing quickly, and thought that Yelu Dashi was dissatisfied with this matter, so he asked: "Senior Brother Dashi, do you think there are any shortcomings in this formation? Or is there something wrong with me commanding this battle?"

Yelu Dashi said, "Senior Brother Wuyan, don't be careful, this Taiyi Mixed Celestial Elephant Array is definitely a sharp weapon for battle, and your command is also impeccable, but I thought of a question, if Jin Bing is afraid of this formation and no longer sends troops to break the formation, how should we deal with it?"

As soon as these words came out, even the smiling Emperor Tianzuo couldn't help but be surprised, yes, the people of the Jin Kingdom are not stupid, your formation is powerful, if he doesn't come to break the formation, what can you do with him? He will attack the northeast sides of your Yanjing, you can't arrange this huge formation on both sides of the northeast, not to mention that the troops are not enough, only the terrain and landform are not allowed, this is the consensus of Yelu Dashi and Wu Yanguang, and he also understood it in the palace before.

At the moment, he looked at Wu Yanguang, wanting to hear what Marshal Wu Yan had to do, but he saw Wu Yanguang and said with a wry smile: "This is indeed a tricky matter, we can only hope that the arrogance that the people of the Jin Kingdom have cultivated after repeated victories will be difficult to eliminate for a while, let them go and let them come to the south of the city to fight with us, if they don't dare, then their morale will be affected, and then attack the city from other directions, maybe it will not be as brave as before." ”

What kind of method is this? Yelu Yanxi and Yelu Dashi were very dissatisfied with Marshal Wuyan's answer. The outcome of the battle of Liaojin depends on whether the people of the Jin country are stupid to decide the result, isn't this putting their fate in the hands of the enemy?

Knowing that there are tigers in the mountains, he prefers to go to the tiger mountains. This is indeed a manifestation of arrogance, but there is a premise for doing so, and the premise is that the strength completely crushes the opponent. Once the people of the Jin Kingdom think that their strength is not enough to crush this mourning army in Yanjing City, maybe they will adopt the method of avoiding the real and attacking the false, if the situation really evolves like that, then this Taiyi Mixed Heaven Elephant Array will be useless.

Perhaps sensing the dissatisfaction of Emperor Tianzuo and Yelu Dashi, Wu Yanguang said: "Your Majesty, don't worry, there will be another way in the end." ”

Emperor Tianzuo's eyes lit up, "What way?"

Wu Yanguang bowed and said: "This method was prepared before, but before I had time to tell His Majesty, it fell on General He Chong Baohe." ”

This morning, he took He Chongbao to the palace, and Emperor Tianzuo was a little surprised. Emperor Tianzuo knew He Chongbao, but it was precisely because he knew He Chongbao that he knew that He Chongbao did not have the qualifications to face the saint of the Golden Palace. In that case, what are you doing with He Chongbao? Do you still need to bring bodyguards to the palace to see the emperor?

It's just that in the morning, Emperor Tianzuo lost his temper and forgot about it, and now when he heard Wu Yanguang say this, he knew that he took He Chongbao to offer a plan, and this strategy was obviously related to He Chongbao.

Sure enough, Wu Yanguang explained: "General He has strong martial arts and is skilled in spells, and he has always wanted to show his skills and break the enemy army, but he was pressed by the last general......"

He Chongbao was not allowed to reveal his spells because He Chongbao had personally shown that his Taoism was limited, and his spells could only break one battalion and one team of the enemy, but it was far from enough to completely annihilate the Jin army.

Considering this situation, Wu Yanguang didn't let him startle the snake, he wanted to cultivate the enemy's arrogance, and at the same time use the space in exchange for time to practice the Taiyi Mixed Sky Elephant Array, how could he use a small victory and give up his previous achievements?

In addition, he knows that good steel should be used on the blade, and intends to send He Chongbao this miracle soldier at the most critical moment to lay the victory in one fell swoop.

That's why he has been hiding the treasure until today.

The plan for today's battle was originally like this - during the day, use the Taiyi Mixed Celestial Array to eat all the soldiers and horses deployed by the Jin State in the south of the city, and then go to the east of the city to steal the camp and rob the village that night when the army is unstable after the enemy's defeat. Because He Chongbao himself said that his spells were the most suitable for stealing camps.

However, today's actual battle situation is not very ideal, only eating 10,000 light cavalry of the Jin country, the people of the Jin country did not hurt their muscles and bones at all, let alone greatly damaged their vitality, which made him hesitate to carry out the robbery camp according to the original plan.

Because the time to rob the camp in the east of the city was not right at this time, the Jin people were not defeated, and the morale of the army would not be weakened, and perhaps they would be strictly guarded against it, and the possibility of success in robbing the camp at this time was not high. And if it is changed to rob the military camp in the south of the city, the best result is only to annihilate the remaining 40,000 horses in the south of the city, and the main force of the Jin State is still entrenched in the east of Yanjing City.

Although he had already hesitated, he was worried again when he saw that the emperor had just been happy for a while, and he felt that it was necessary to take a risk, and once he succeeded, he could increase the emperor's confidence again, and at the same time increase the emperor's trust in him again.

Therefore, he said ruthlessly: "Your Majesty, rest assured, the last general will go to the camp with General He tonight! I believe that with the cover of the night and General He's spells, we will definitely be able to reap a big victory again!"

Yelu Yanxi was overjoyed, but instead considering that he didn't understand this kind of military action after all, he looked at Yelu Dashi: "Dashi Linya, what do you think?"

Yelu Dashi nodded and said: "This plan is feasible, but if you want to steal, you can only go to the military camp in the south of the city, so that you can attack and retreat and defend, in case the enemy is on guard, we only need to immediately retreat to the Taiyi Mixed Celestial Elephant Array, and we can be invincible." ”

Yelu Dashi said very reasonably, but it reminded Wu Yanguang more tactfully. What he didn't say was that the camp of the golden soldiers entrenched in the east of the city stretched for dozens of miles, what kind of stealing method should you use to steal the camp? Even if you plan for the best, more than 500,000 golden soldiers will each stretch out their heads for you to cut off, do you have so many people to handle the knife?

The only remaining 200,000 elite soldiers in the capital are in the Chaotian Array, they can't follow you to the adventure, in case you lose it, you won't have the capital to turn it over.

Therefore, if you want to steal, you can only steal the southern camp, and the success rate is relatively high.

Without Yelu Dashi's reminder, Wu Yanguang can also take these into account, the two can be regarded as compatible, but Wu Yanguang still gave Yelu Dashi a lot of face, and said: "Senior Brother Dashi is too right, that's it, let's steal the South Daying!"

The two supreme military commanders had the same opinion, and the emperor, of course, had nothing to say, so he immediately made a decision, and the plan to rob the camp tonight was decided.

At this time, it was past noon, and the soldiers in the city were already eating additional meals, Yelu Yanxi was full of joy, and decided to add meals at the head of the city, with the meaning of sharing weal and woe with the soldiers under the city, and immediately ordered the entourage to arrange, and soon there were a group of chefs from the imperial dining room in the middle of the court leading a group of two knives carrying stoves, cooking utensils and many fine wine ingredients to the city, cooking delicious food for the emperor on the spot.

Yelu Yanxi sat down with Yelu Dashi and Wuyan Guang Junchen at the same table, and after a few glasses of wine, Yelu Yanxi was more open-minded, and suddenly said: "It's just that the three of us monarchs and ministers will not be grand enough to drink this one, so it is better to call General He and the generals who participated in the battle today, and I want to give them delicious food and wine as a reward!"

Who would dare to disobey the emperor's order? Wu Yanguang immediately stood beside the female wall and gave an order aloud, calling He Chongbao, Yelu Guozhen, Kou Zhenyuan, and Qu Li out of the Qing Dynasty, and there were hundreds of generals among the 200,000 Liao troops, but the emperor named only these four people.

The four generals ascended to the city, paid homage to the emperor, Emperor Tianzuo was a praise and encouragement, and then gave the wine, this celebration wine was drunk more freely, and the sun was setting, it was still unfinished, Wu Yanguang got up and said: "Your Majesty, the last general has the courage to say a word, this wine banquet can not be drunk anymore, stealing the camp in the middle of the night tonight, it is time to prepare......"

Yelu Yanxi smiled and said: "Okay! That's it, let's also follow the story of Guan Gong's wine and slashing Huaxiong, I will sit at the head of this city and continue to drink, waiting for the good news from the generals, and let's continue this banquet in the middle of the night!

As soon as the words fell, before waiting for the generals to order, he suddenly heard a long voice sounding from the city, and quickly approached the city, "report the ......"

Wu Yanguang's face changed when he heard this, he knew that this was a herald in his army, but you herald is not sensible, how big of a thing can make you run to report in such a panic? Don't you know that the emperor is in the city?

However, he still asked in a deep voice: "What did you report?"

The herald said: "The heavy cavalry of the Jin soldiers is gathering, but the battle intention is unknown, it seems that they are going to withdraw, and it seems that they are going to attack the south. ”

"Huh?" Wu Yanguang was very surprised, when he heard the first half of the herald's sentence, he thought that the Jin people wanted to send another group of cavalry to the big formation, but what did their heavy cavalry mean to attack to the south? What enemy in the south could be worthy of such a fierce battle by the Jin soldiers?

At this time, the sky was getting dark, but it was not yet time to hold the lamp, and even from the top of the city, he could not see the movement of the golden soldiers, and he believed that the news of the herald must have come from the scouts he had sent out, and this news would not be false, but it was precisely because it would not be false that he could not figure out what was going on.

So he looked at Yelu Dashi, and said in his heart, didn't Xiao Long, who rushed out the day before yesterday, come back? Or is it the reinforcement that you Yelu Dashi moved from somewhere?

He knew that Yelu Dashi had gone to Xizhou to ask for rescuers, but afterwards Yelu Dashi did not bring rescuers back to Liao, whether he invited rescuers or not, except for the emperor, no one knew whether Yelu Dashi, as the king of the Southern Courtyard, dared to get to the bottom of this matter.

Perhaps it was because Yelu Dashi had returned ahead of schedule, and that the Western Uighurs had to go through some conscription to organize an expedition? But if it was the Western Uighurs who came with reinforcements, it seems that they should not have come from due south.

Yelu Dashi understood what Wu Yanguang meant, so he shook his head and said, "Don't look at me, I can't figure out what's going on, you better let the scouts in the army continue to listen for another round." ”

Wu Yanguang just wanted to order the herald to convey the order, but he heard a long "...... report"

The herald in front of him hadn't gone down yet, and another one came up from below, this one was more direct than the one just now, and he said breathlessly without waiting for Wu Yanguang to ask: "The golden camp has set up a formation to face the southern battle, there is smoke and dust in the south, and it seems that a large army is coming to ......."

At this time, Wu Yanguang and Yelu Dashi couldn't help but be surprised, even Yelu Yanxi couldn't sit still, stood up Tengdi, and said excitedly: "Didn't the Song State send troops to reinforce me?"
