Chapter 259(3/4)

If the other party is a sane person, he should fight and pay back the money at the same time, and finally strive for a result acceptable to both parties.

In fact, Wan Yansheng didn’t think that such a sky-high asking price would be successful.

As a result, the Qi Dynasty really planned to kill General Han Fuyue?

When he discovered that the Qi Dynasty had loosened its ideas and that this clause was really possible to be reached, Wan Yansheng was even more determined to insist that Han Fuyue must be killed.

If things go by normal circumstances, General Han Fuyue will definitely return to the court with his troops, and then Qin Huizhi and the emperor will find a way to kill him unjustly, and after giving the Jin people enough benefits, they will make a consensus.

But now, the situation has changed in a way that everyone did not expect.

General Han Fuyue actually refused to obey the imperial edict, and left more than 30,000 elite troops behind. He also changed his name to the Zhaoyi Army and issued a "Message to the People of the World." It was as if he wanted to resist the imperial edict and stayed to fight against the Jin Dynasty to the end.

.

Qin Huizhi sent a secret message, requesting Wanyan Sheng to kill General Han Fuyue to reach a peace agreement, while the Qi Dynasty would send a partial force to attack from both front and rear.

This made Wan Yansheng fall into deep thought.

He stood up and walked around the tent twice, and said: "Han Fuyue is indeed a famous general. I was sure to win the battle of Yancheng, but I didn't expect that he could break the tie by force. Iron Buddha Tu

The battle with Guaizima was completely ruined, which really made me heartbroken...

"If he only has more than 30,000 men in his hands at this time and has no food and logistics, then this is indeed the best time to attack and eliminate the weeds at one stroke.

"It's just...do you think this might be a trick to lure the enemy?

"I have read the story of the bitter flesh trick."

At this time, the Jin people were very keen on the culture of the Qi Dynasty, and many historical allusions were familiar to them.

Wan Yansheng was also very worried. What if General Han Fuyue's rebellion was just a show, but actually meant to set a trap and lure him into taking the bait?

When he stormed General Han Fuyue, the various Qi armies were divided and outflanked, and then he would be defeated again...

Then forget about the peace talks and just consider running back to your hometown in the land of black mountains and white waters.

Wan Yanxian shook his head slightly: "I think... it's not a trap.

"If this is a strategy, then it is too much.

"The people of Qi could have refused to negotiate peace with us and allowed Han Fuyue to continue fighting. But the Emperor of Qi really issued an edict to withdraw his troops. He gave Han Fuyue twelve gold medals a day to withdraw his troops.

"This is enough to show that the Emperor of Qi Dynasty really didn't want to fight.

"How could such a performance be just a show? The price would be too high.

"Furthermore, based on our understanding of Emperor Qi Chao and Qin Huizhi, they would indeed do such a thing.

"The only value of Qin Hui's existence in the Qi Dynasty is to sign a peace agreement with our Dynasty. Therefore, no matter how excessive our demands are, this person will fully accept them.

"What's more, judging from the military reports from various spies, all the generals of the Qi Dynasty, except Han Fuyue, have indeed returned to the court, and the army has also retreated. Although it did not retreat quickly, there was a strong intention to retreat.

Obviously, it is impossible to come over and outflank our army's retreat.

"There are various signs that...this is indeed a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."

Wanyan Sheng couldn't help but laugh: "Okay! It's a great blessing for me to have such an emperor and a prime minister in the Qi Dynasty!

"Send an order to gather all the troops and kill Han Fuyue!"

"Kill Han Fuyue and then make a peace treaty with the Qi Dynasty. What I lose now will be taken back when I have defeated all the rebels!"

Wan Yansheng is worthy of possessing first-rate strategic ability and third-rate tactical ability. He can always accurately grasp the opportunity to fight.

Wan Yansheng's characteristics as a general commanding troops can be summarized as "being able to grasp combat opportunities, having strong maneuverability and being tough".

In fact, Jin people are not good at particularly complex strategies and tactics, and they do not have strong discipline. The reason why they have been able to win consecutive battles for so many years is due to their patience, perseverance, and fearlessness.

The Jin people's cavalry claims that those who cannot fight for a hundred rounds are not considered elites. When attacking a city, they often fight bravely to take the lead, regardless of life and death. Such a high fighting will allows the Jin people to persist even if they encounter tough battles.

In the end, it becomes a big victory, and even if you lose, it is difficult to completely collapse.

Although Wan Yansheng was hung up and beaten by General Han Fuyue, he was already the strongest among the Jin soldiers, and he was also the general who fully displayed this characteristic of the Jin soldiers.

At this time, as usual, he saw such a once-in-a-lifetime fighter plane.

For Wan Yansheng, the best strategy was to wait for Han Fuyue's troops to return to the court, and then let Qin Hui kill him unjustly. Killing the most powerful enemy without a bloody blow was naturally the best result.

But at this time, General Han Fuyue actually disobeyed his orders and did not intend to return to the court.

Judging from Qi Chao's intentions, it seemed that they did not want to send out their own troops to kill General Han Fuyue.

In this case, it can only be done by the Jin people.

Wanyan Sheng could clearly see the situation at this time. If the Jin people did not take action, the possibility of the Qi Dynasty annihilating General Han Fuyue was infinitely close to zero.

Too late and things will change.

Although General Han Fuyue only has more than 30,000 people at this time, it would be difficult for him to develop.

Therefore, Wan Yansheng decided to take advantage of the fact that Han Fuyue's army had not had time to be fully integrated, had not received enough support, and had not been able to find a stable source of military rations, to take a thunderous action and kill him.

In this way, it can not only shock the world, make the Jin soldiers feel proud, but also completely eliminate this powerful enemy.

As a result, the Jin people's various armies, which were on the verge of collapse, were forcibly unified by Wan Yansheng. The elite cavalry and infantry totaled 80,000 and headed straight for Zhuxian Town.



At this time, Zhao Haiping did not mobilize the army in a hurry, but remained where he was.

He only does three things.

The first is high walls and deep ditches. Continue to improve the various defenses in the military camp, and build layers of defense lines as much as possible in this area to make it impregnable;

The second is to continue to train soldiers diligently every day;

The third is to receive military rations sent by nearby people.

Although there are only more than 30,000 Zhaoyi troops left, and the consumption of military rations has slowed down, after all, without the continuous supply of food and grass from the rear, it is already in a state of having nothing to eat.

The food left behind when the army withdrew could not last long.

But at least in the short term, Zhao Haiping does not have to worry about military rations.

Because the people behind enemy lines in the newly recovered areas were rushing to deliver food.

According to historical records, the people of the Central Plains "struggled to pull cattle and carts to carry miscellaneous grain to feed the rebel army." When they learned that General Han Fuyue had received the gold medal and wanted to withdraw his troops, the people of the Central Plains also urged: "We will wait for your support."

The incense basins are used to transport grain and grass to meet the officers and soldiers, and the captives are aware of it. My husband is here today, and we have no cowards."

At that time, given the great reputation of General Han Fuyue in various places, it was a very common phenomenon for ordinary people to come to deliver military rations.

Not only General Han Fuyue was like this, but other Qi troops from all walks of life, as long as they could win the battle and had a good reputation among the people, also received this treatment.

Before Zhao Haiping tore up the edict, General Han Fuyue and other generals basically "rewarded generously with silver and silk".

In other words, the people's food should not be taken for free, but the people should be rewarded with some gold, silver, wealth and silk according to the amount of food transported.

The Jin people were so angry that they sent people to intercept and kill the common people who were transporting food to the Qi army. At the same time, they used the method of protecting the army and killed all the people around them who were found transporting food for the army.

But even so, there was still an endless stream of people in the Qi Dynasty rushing to transport grain.

In addition, when the Jin people evacuated various strategic places, they did not have time to take away all kinds of baggage, so this part can also be used as a supplement.

In the past, the Qi armies did not accept the rations sent by the common people because they were indeed not short of food, but now, Zhao Haiping was really short of food.

Therefore, he asked his men to collect all the military rations that the people had worked so hard to send and record them one by one.

Not only that, he also called several fellow villagers who transported military rations, had a chat with them, and told them a very important thing.

Although these military rations cannot be exchanged for gold, silver and silk at this time, these fellow villagers can obtain vouchers written by him personally and stamped with the military seal.

And Zhao Haiping promised that when the lost land is recovered, the unowned land will be distributed to these people. Anyone who has transported military rations to the army can also obtain additional land based on the amount of military rations transported!

How much military rations were exchanged for how much land was clearly stated on the receipt.

Of course, some of the so-called ownerless lands... may be truly ownerless, and some may have been forcibly rendered ownerless after the Jin puppet troops and landlords were killed.

The people who came to deliver food naturally received these certificates happily, and were even happier than receiving rewards such as gold and silver.

Because in ancient times, land was the only means of production!

Although gold and silver are also hard currencies, they are much less attractive to ordinary people than land.

Although this is just a blank check now and may not be honored, it is certain that it will be honored in the minds of the people.

Because of General Han Fuyue's illustrious reputation gained through his campaigns in the north and south, the people were convinced that he would definitely win, and he would never default on his debt.

Not only that, Zhao Haiping also continued to make three chapters of agreement with his soldiers.

First, we must still fight bravely against the enemy and strive to be the first in everything. The military achievements we have made before and in the future will still count.

Second, we must still "freeze to death without tearing down the houses, starve to death without looting", no matter what kind of desperate situation we encounter, we must not disturb the people.

Third, anyone who has made military achievements can obtain land just like the common people who come to transport food!

In this way, the Zhaoyi Army's goals and reward and punishment mechanism will be clear.

The goal is to hunt for gold and regain lost ground.

The reward and punishment mechanism is to distribute the recaptured land according to military merit!

In the past, General Han Fuyue could never and did not dare to play like this. Because he was still a minister of the Qi Dynasty and led the Qi Dynasty's army, so the land he conquered naturally belonged to the Qi Dynasty.
