The battlefield is not a arena, but a more cruel place than the arena!
Thousands or even tens of thousands of people died in battle on the battlefield. The corpses were everywhere, piled up into mountains, and blood flowed into rivers. As the commander of the first army, commanding thousands of troops, he not only possesses extraordinary military talents, but also has an absolutely calm thinking and overall outlook.
One mistake is all wrong!
If there is no extraordinary view of the overall situation, just the courage of a man, how can Li Daozong become the commander of the famous three armies? Now that the Xue Yantuo country is over, the Tang army has the absolute upper hand. There is no need to rush to achieve success and continue to attack the city. This is the method of using troops to subdue.
There is a saying in the art of war: "Upon the army and cut the plan, then cut the hand, and then cut the army, and then attack the city. The method of siege is a last resort, so attacking the heart is also the best."
Countless soldiers who attacked the city and sacrificed their lives were always against the heavens and had to do it. Because of this, Li Daozong chose the tactics of attacking the heart, pressing on every step of the way, causing psychological and mental pressure on Domi Khan and others, forcing them to surrender without a fight.
It only takes five days to reach the Tula River from Punushui, but the Tang army had walked for more than half a month, and Li Daozong adopted the strategy of suspicious soldiers, stop-and-go, stop-and-go. In the Ya Ting on the south side of Yanran Mountain, the people such as Zhuo Zhuo, Jie Li Fu and others have not slept peacefully for a long time. The spies sent out to investigate the enemy's situation kept reporting back and forth.
When they thought that Tang Jun was resting, they continued to move after a while; when they thought that Tang Jun was about to attack, Tang Jun actually rested on the spot, it was more like a battle, and more like teasing them. Pulling scorching anger, holding back his anger, there is nowhere to vent.
The faces of Jie Lili and others were exhausted. During this time, they really lived like a year, suffering every day, waiting in fear. Now that the morale of the army is weakening day by day, most of Ya Ting's food and grass have been used, and it was expected to last for three months.
Jie Libi sighed silently. After he personally inspected it, he knew that half of the food had been soaked in rain and moldy and could not be eaten. As for the stocked animals, there was no way to re-supply, which meant that his own food and grass could be supported at most. Half a month.
Tang Jun has become a lingering dark cloud above everyone's head. Even Bazhuo and others are frugal. As a nomad, he is known as a cavalry, but the horses cannot be supplemented with food and grass. Even more horses will not help. .
But they can't as usual, let the horses run around, don't worry about someone. Now Xue Yantuo is almost occupied by Tang Jun. As for Bazhuo and others control less than 1% of the territory, so Bazhuo and others are more eager to find a way out.
"Tang Jun arrived near the Tula River?" His eyes were bloodshot, and his face was exhausted. This period of time made him very uncomfortable. Every day he lived with fear. He had already lost his former dominance and arrogance, as if he was more than ten years old. Years old, wrinkles are coming out.
"No... No!" The spy shook his head bitterly. They can't figure out what the situation of the Tang army is now. When you said that the Tang army was resting, it was already marching; when you said that the Tang army was marching, they were resting on the spot, which made them too. Confused, there is no accurate information at all.
"Through my order, withdraw the troops guarding the Tula River, and order them to return to Ya Ting immediately!" Pulling Zhuo sighed helplessly, "If we pass on the troops from other garrisons, we also ordered them to return to Ya Ting, as for the Tang army. There is no need to investigate the intelligence, come back all!"
Jie Liju was shocked: "Sweat, this..."
"No need to say more, this is my order!" Ba Zhao coldly glanced at Jie Li Khan, then looked at the leaders of the other tribes, "You also go down to rectify the soldiers of the tribes, and when they all come back, I have something to do. Announce!"
Everyone bowed and exited the tooth tent, Jie Li Khan sighed, and after taking a deep look, he went out to rectify their own soldiers and horses.
"It's time to be broken!..." Everyone else in the tooth tent left, except for one person. His bloodshot eyes showed resoluteness, and he drank the milk wine in the cup.
The movement of Xue Yantuo's army naturally couldn't be concealed from Tang Jun's scout, and everyone reported the information to the Tang army coach Li Daozong. Li Daozong quickly called everyone to discuss the matter. Because the act of pulling out the cautery was too weird, at this moment, bringing the army together in Yating was tantamount to exposing a crack in the airtight wall, allowing the Tang army to fight or even approach the city.
"General Zuo Xiaowei, you are most familiar with Xue Yantuo's tribe. What do you know about this move?" Li Daozong was puzzled, staring at Asnadul, "Go back to the commander, let me see this in the end. , It should be the final decision!"
"What decision?" Li Daozong asked in a puzzled manner.
Ashnadur was silent for a moment, and said: "A life and death!"
Everyone bowed their heads and did not speak. Only Xue Wanche disapproved and sneered: "Now our army has controlled most of Xue Yantuo's territory. Only with Yating's tens of thousands of iron knights and other elite tribes can resist our offensive. According to the general, he is seeking his own death, and the final general actively asked Ying to attack his tooth court, completely destroying Xue Yantuo country, and I beg the general to please!"
"General Youwei, don't underestimate the enemy's strength!" He was kindly reminded of the loss of thinking, but Xue Wanche still raised his head arrogantly and dismissively. Li Daozong ignored Xue Wanche's request, but seriously asked: "Let's listen. listen!"
Desire Si Li resisted Xue Yantuo's army several times, and even Ba Zhuo was defeated in his hands. Among the generals present, apart from Ashnadur, the only one who really fought against Xue Yantuo the most number of times was Desire. Si Li is also the person most familiar with enemy combat intelligence.
"If this move is like what General Zuo Xiaowei said, then this battle must be no small thing!" He said in a deep voice, "As the saying goes: The dog jumps over the wall in a hurry! Pulling the fire, Jie Li Fu, etc. have already felt a lot of pressure. There is no hope in my heart. Under such circumstances, it is not possible to pull out the jade and not to be a complete piece. What's more, pull out is a domineering khan. Knowing that there is no way to retreat, pull out is bound to rally all forces with our army Fight to the death and defend the pride of Xue Yantuo's tribe!"
"According to the scout, there are at least 40,000 defenders in Yating. If you add the scattered troops and the elites of the tribes, it is estimated that there will be 100,000 troops. If you are desperate and fight with our army, then this battle will be It is the most tragic battle."
Everyone was silent upon hearing this!
Even if he was arrogant just now, Xue Wanche, who was disapproving, also showed his face. He is a general who has experienced many battles, and he also knows what the consequences of recklessness are! If the other party really does that, it means that they are ready to fight to the death and maintain their pride as the people of Xue Yantuo country. It is no longer a simple war but a dying one after another, even with their own lives. Maintain the final dignity and pride. (End of this chapter)
