Five hundred and thirtieth IX Khan's decree

"Tell Li Youde to be careful, don't take any tricks to lure the enemy." Li Guorui hesitated and said, "I estimate that the main force of the Donghu Army has passed the Yushui River, and is right upstream of ours. The four whistle and cavalry are not able to reconnaise. The more this happens, the more we can determine this. If he attacks, he will complete the camp and set up the formation within three to five days, and will never leave without fighting. Where the front army is located, he should build camps, set up arrow towers, release horses, deer antlers, and dig trenches. All means must be used, and we must not be careless. If this battle can be rejected, not only me, but also you, Taiwei Yue, Li Youde, and Mai Jitong, can all be awarded titles."

The Han people made the title of marquis the highest goal, and the flying general Li Guang went through military service. He was originally from a noble family. Li Guang served two thousand stones and was not short of status and money. However, the most valuable thing for the Han people was the marquis. The Qin and Han dynasties' title system was roughly equivalent, from the number of civil titles to the high titles equivalent to officials, and finally to the Marquis of Guannei and Marquis of Che, and finally to the pinnacle of military merits.

The titles of the Great Wei Dynasty were from the ninth rank to the civil and military. As for the military, the Taiwei was the pinnacle. The literati took the master as his lifelong goal. Regardless of civil and military, the title was always the ultimate goal of people.

There was a faint worry deep in Yue Zhi's eyes. The things in front of him seemed to have great hope, but in fact they were still full of holes. It seemed that they played chess and walked through one step. They always felt that they were not very excited and seemed to be in a good situation. However, when the enemy turned the backhand, he immediately became a step-by-step and could not continue.

But Yue Zhi also knew that Li Guorui had done his best. Even if he had something to worry about, Li Guorui had no choice but to say it indiscriminately, so it would be better not to say it.

The sun was about to set in front of me, the mountains were like seas, soldiers and civilians were like waves, and people were roaring between the river and the mountains. There were people roaring from afar, and the sound of cannons, and faintly the sound of horses running like thunder. Because there were too many horses and too dense, although people felt the ground shaking slightly from afar, it was conceivable that how many war horses would run together to have such momentum.

Yue Zhi's expression remained unchanged and said, "The main forces of the Donghu people have gathered together."

Li Guorui didn't say anything, just nodded slightly.

...

"No deployment can change." Yelu Shu said to Chechen Khan a little ashamed, "It was my fault, I was a little hesitant. The Wei army was very aggressive. In a hurry, I was not willing to use Erlang's life to fill it up. Once I retreated, the Wei army Yushui and Jinzhou were filled with their main force and formed into one. Now it seems even more difficult to attack. I am guilty and should apologize to the Khan."

Wanyan Zongshu, Wanyan De, Yelu Shu and others were sitting cross-legged in the big tent, with more than 20,000 households kneeling around them, and in the middle was the fat, tall and strong Che Chenhan.

It was dark, pits were dug in the tent, bonfires were burning, and a newly peeled pig was burning on the iron rack. The soup was rolling, and the fragrance was emitting in the tent.

In the afternoon, Chechen Khan rushed to less than ten miles northeast of Jinzhou. The soldiers were cheering and thunderous. Tens of thousands of knights surrounded Khan to watch the battlefield under Jinzhou City. The Wei army fired continuously. When the sky was getting dark, the artillery fire everywhere emitted orange light, which was one after another, which was spectacular.

Che Chen Khan remained silent from beginning to end, but those who knew him knew that this Khan was in a bad mood.

During the previous deployment, we had to fight the main force of the Wei army under the city of Jinzhou, and we must cut it off

The contact between Jinzhou and Yushui City was then dug a long trenches to isolate the main force of the Wei army, annihilated the Wei army under Yushui City in one battle, and then went to Jinzhou, which had been built almost the same, so that the victory could be achieved.

Unexpectedly, the Yelu Shu leaders had just crossed the Yu River and met the Wei army's front army in a hurry. The Wei army almost came with the backs, and with a heavy reward, so they were very energetic. Because the battlefield space was insufficient, it was not conducive to the cavalry running and detour. The usual tactics used by the Donghu Army were not used at all. So as soon as the two armies came into contact with each other, the Donghu Army declared no support, and then retreated continuously. Fortunately, the Donghu Army was not in chaos when the Donghu Army retreated, and the Wei army failed to succeed. Li Youde wanted to continue attacking at that time and completely made dumplings for this Donghu part.

Later, the main forces of Wanyan troops arrived one after another. When Chechen Khan arrived, the main forces of the Donghu Army were completely arrived. On the Yushui side, there were still a large number of slave soldiers crossing the river one after another, helping the army camp and build up.

There were several trenches separated from the Donghu Army and the Wei Army. The Changzha Camp looked thin, but generally had trenches as peripheral barriers, and there were a large number of defensive facilities such as horse resistance and deer antlers. Jinzhou City had just been cast for a while, and it was built in rammed earth. You could still smell the smell of mud and grass. There was not even a piece of bricks at the city. The city was just a whole, and there was no arrow tower at the city wall. But even such a simple city wall, the Wei army was unable to attack now. Jinzhou City had only been built about five miles, and there were more than 20,000 people stationed in the city. The Donghu Army did not carry a large number of siege equipment to attack day and night, so it was impossible to attack.

The situation of the Donghu army was quite embarrassing. It was impossible to remove the two cities of Jinzhou and Yushui. Even if the Wei army lost consecutive battles in the field, as long as the Wei army defended the position in front of them, even if the entire city was captured or even lost Jinzhou, defending the Yushui and Songta Forts was still regarded as the victory of the Wei army...

The meat in the soup was boiled so hard that it was taken out by the guard and placed on the plate in front of Chechen Han. In addition to the aroma of the meat, there was also a faint fishy smell in the tent. This is the routine of Donghu people eating meat. Without spices, there is no cooking method. Just boil the meat with water, which is a great success.

Che Chen didn't show any expression, so he pulled out the knife from his waist, then cut one piece by himself and chewed it in his mouth.

The other few Yans drew their swords to cut their flesh one after another, and then thousands of households used small swords to cut their flesh one after another.

Everyone cut the meat one after another, and there was only the sound of chewing in the tent. Everyone ate it very sweetly. These Donghu people were not strong when they were young. Even the children of nobles had to fish and hunt themselves to supplement their meat. The harvest of fishing and hunting was quite unstable, and it was only a luxury to eat meat normally.

Che Chen Han had a lot of appetite. He used a silver knife to cut his flesh. He took three or four pounds and then took up the towel and wiped the knife clean, then took back the scabbard, and then slowly wiped his mouth with a towel.

Seeing this, everyone quickly put away their swords. After putting them away, they all looked at the sweat and waited for Wanyan Hong to speak.

"This time the front part is not good, and we have been confronting the Wei people for a long time, and I feel a little tired after all." Che Chenhan looked at the many handsome men and Wanhu and said lightly: "You don't need to punish Yelu Shu severely, just punish five pure color horses."

Yelu Shu quickly bowed and replied, "Thank you, Dahan, is magnanimous."

This has always been the case for the nobles of Donghu to be punished. They are punished with horses or bows, arrows and armor, and are charged into the public. In this way, those who have been punished can also enrich the public and increase the combat power of the palace tent army.

Five horses are indeed trivial

Dao's light punishment was originally thought that Yelu Shu would be punished by a stick or more than a hundred horses. Even if he was so handsome, he would be punished with hundreds or thousands of war horses.

Che Chen Khan said again: "This war is related to the life and death of our tribe. This level must be known to the tribe. If each tribe still has the intention to preserve its strength and does not want the soldiers to die, this battle will have to fail. If this battle fails, if I, Donghu and others are added a solid chain by the Great Wei, they will have to be trapped in Yingzhou, Liaozhou, and wait for death. If the Wei people recover their strength, cross the Yushui and Liaohe River, and destroy our country's clan, it will only take ten years. In this battle, from me to Genayan, and then to the palace tent army, all the left and right divisions in the front and left will have to attack. The retreating army a few days ago, captured ten or more men and thousands of men, beheaded in front of the army, and declared my intention at this time, and encouraged the soldiers of the whole clan to sacrifice their lives and forget their lives. Only when the whole clan is united and puts life and death out of the limit can they find that glimmer of life and hope to be in this unfavorable situation."

Everyone was ashamed and knew the meaning of the Khan, which confirmed that the situation of the war was not good at this time.

Previously, Li Guorui and the Donghu cavalry confronted each other for half a year. Although Wei was dragged down and was seriously injured, it could no longer support it. With Donghu's national strength, how could it be much stronger than the Great Wei? The army has been preparing for war for a long time, and the food, grass and weapons consumed are astronomical figures, and its treasury has long been empty. Its people also lack strong labor and will face a more severe situation next year. Tribes of millions and hundreds of thousands of slaves will be at least 20% to 30% of them starve to death.

In the case of the Great Wei Dynasty, it means that we will fight this battle at the cost of more than 10 million people!

For the Great Wei, this is obviously impossible. The various stakes are already full of complaints and difficult to maintain. This is also the reason why the emperor and the two governments decided to fight in advance.

For Donghu, even if half of the tribal members die, as long as the Khan and many noble people decide to do so, the tribal members will only bear it silently and will never resist.

This is the difference between highly developed farming civilization and relatively barbaric fishing and hunting tribe civilization. Developed civilizations often fall into an embarrassing situation and situation for barbaric tribes, and even fail miserably because before the civilization is developed to a certain extent, the organization and utilization of the army of both sides, the expenditure and utilization of national strength, and even the cruel treatment and exploitation of the people and the people of the country are often inferior to the barbarism.

At this time, many Yan Jia had no objection to the Khan's decision. If they wanted to kill so many outstanding military officers in normal times, they would seriously weaken the strength of a certain department and might cause quarrels and open and secret struggles. But at this moment, the matter involved the life and death of the entire tribe. Not only Yan Hui of the Wanyan family supported them, but the ten thousand households present were probably standing on the side of the Khan. In this way, it would be meaningless to oppose them.

Yelu Shu asked to arrest people and sentence them to prison. Che Chenhan nodded and said, "It's great for you to do this, so as not to be looked down upon by others."

Most of the people who want to be killed are Yelu Shu. If Yelu Shu doesn't come forward, the people in the tribe will only think that Yelu Shu is also controlled by the Great Khan. At this time, Yelu Shu asked to leave the tent to arrest people and punish people, which is also aware of the opportunity.
