Chapter 788 Psychological Warfare

Ding Yuan's left foot was bloody, and a sergeant knelt beside him to treat the wound.

This is the end of the long street. In front, teams of Beiliao sergeants are lining up.

There are also ambushes in the streets and alleys on both sides. Once the Northern Xinjiang Army attacks, they can attack from both sides.

"Intercept from the front, attack from both sides, yeah, let's see how long Yang Gou's subordinates can resist!"

Ding Yuan gasped, kicked the sergeant who was treating his wound, and cursed, "Get lost!"

The sergeant rolled over and stood up.

Ding Yuan looked down, the wound on his calf was not serious, and it didn't even affect his movement, but he didn't know where he got it, and there was a lot of blood flow.

"How are the people?"

Feng Shao looked a little embarrassed and disheveled at the moment... When he jumped off the city wall earlier, a stone happened to come. He dodged quickly and hit the city wall.

"The morale of the people is very high!"

Ding Yuan said very reservedly: "Yang Gou's reputation is too bad, Beijing Guan, erecting the pole, and what he said earlier that he wanted to massacre the city. The people are afraid. Since they are all dead, at least fight."

"Yang Gou said to kill all the defenders!"

A voice came weakly.

Ah!
Ding Yuan sneered, pointing to a sergeant, "Go, find out the movements of the northern border army."

The northern army has taken control of the city, so what else are they looking for?
The sergeant stepped forward bravely.

Ding Yuan said: "Every step forward, they will pay a heavy price. They only need to persist for two days, no! The old man thinks that they can persist for at least five days.

And reinforcements from Jianshui, Jinshan, and Neizhou will continue to flow.

If Yang Gou doesn't leave, then there's no need to leave.

Once such a stalemate is formed, Yang Gou will be in a dilemma.

If you don't make it right, you will fail miserably.

He is not popular in the northern border, once defeated, those tyrants will take advantage of the trend.

Retiring, returning without success in this battle will severely damage the morale of Northern Xinjiang..."

Feng Shao took a sip of water and passed the water bag to the people around him, "Someone complained to the old man, saying that since he had the intention of building a stone house, why didn't he use stones to reinforce the city.

It is solid to reinforce the city head with stones, but once it is broken through, our army has no way to retreat.

Entering the city, Yang Gou can burn us to death with a single fire.And now..."

Feng Shao pointed to those stone houses and said with a smile: "When Yang Gou enters the city, he will find himself facing a huge trouble. Every stone house is a small fortified city. Every time he attacks, he will pay a huge price.

One city, countless cities, of course the old man has to choose countless cities. "

Two sergeants came back carrying a dead sergeant.

"Set aside."

This sergeant is Ding Yuan's entourage.

"Xiangwen, Tang Jun is here!"

The sergeant also sent the bad news.

Feng Shao took a deep breath, "Old man, I can't wait!"

……

Surrounded by Yang Xuan, he went up to the top of the city and had a panoramic view.

"Most of the city is made of earthen and stone houses, so arson is out of the question." Han Ji pointed to those houses, "If we attack in sequence, the damage will be considerable."

"The general wants our army to attack step by step. Every stone house is like a city. Interesting."

Yang Xuan was thinking.

Suo Yun came, "Deputy envoy, the villain is willing to lead an army to attack."

"you……"

Yang Xuan glanced at him, the prisoner is worthless, if he dies, he will die, and he will catch it next time.

However, too many prisoners were killed and injured, which would also affect morale.

But then, you can't say that.

Yang Xuan said: "You can't take human life to fight recklessly, and wait."

The deputy envoy was unwilling to give up our lives... Suo Yun said with tears in his eyes, "Vice envoy, we are willing to die."

Ning Yayun watched with cold eyes, seeing Yang Xuan patted Suo Yun's shoulder with a smile, and said, "Keep a useful body and enjoy wealth in the future."

If it is said that Suo Yun's tears were seven parts fake and three parts real, now they are almost all real, even the snot came out.

This kind of means to win people's hearts... Ning Yayun felt that Dao's heart almost moved, and after careful consideration, it turned out that she was hungry.

Wang Lao Er was gnawing on the jerky, and handed it to Tu Chang, who took it, clasped his hands together, and the jerky shattered.

To be a human being, you must know how to adapt.

Since the teeth are not good, they should be broken and eaten. In this way, filial piety is enjoyed, and the food is also enjoyed.

"Second child."

Yang Xuan was shouting, Wang Lao Er hurriedly stuffed the dried meat into Tu Chang's mouth, "Here we come."

"It's really filial!" The old thief looked at Tu Chang enviously.

"Yes!" Being stared at, Tu Chang could only swallow the jerky whole with a smile.

"Uh!"

He hiccupped, and the old thief said with concern: "Is... choking?"

"No, just angry."

"What are you angry about?"

"The Qi defenders have created a tortoise formation."

The city is full of strongholds, and this battle is not easy to fight.

Zhen Siwen said: "Look, my lord, if it doesn't work, use wood to break open the door, use archers and long spears, and add a horizontal knife.

After knocking open the door, first use arrows to shoot and kill those who are visible to the naked eye, then go in with a long spear, stab and kill... and finally use a horizontal knife to cooperate and strangle the rest of the people. "

He spoke calmly, but Yang Xuan was not.

Sven, you've learned from experience.

He also has one more general under his command.

Good thing.

The old thief said: "Although this is good, there will be many casualties."

"The trapped beast is still fighting." Han Ji agreed with the old thief.

"Fighting always leads to death!" Someone muttered.

Yang Xuan narrowed his eyes, "Are the people of Beiliao afraid of death? They must be afraid of death. They dare to fight in the street, it's nothing more than the defenders preaching that I want to massacre the city. In this battle, don't be head-to-head..."

Everyone looked at him slowly.

"The trebuchet enters the city."

"Yes."

"Capture some people first, and tell them to spread the word. I want to kill all the defenders. As for the people, we will need manpower to open up wasteland in northern Xinjiang next year, and we will also need manpower to build roads in northern Xinjiang..."

Good labor!

Catapults enter the city.

"boom!"

A rock hit the roof, sending stone chips flying.

The entire roof of the stone house collapsed.

Amidst the howling sound, the door opened, and several men and women, plus more than a dozen soldiers rushed out.

"Stop!"

Zhao Yong stood in front with his subordinates, and shouted: "The common people kneel down, and they will not die."

The two men ran back after the sergeants.

"Fire arrows!"

Zhao Yong waved.

The rain of arrows covered the past, and they all fell down.

The rest of the people trembled.

"Speak with them."

Several men and women choked with sobs and shouted: "I am Xiao Er Er, Yang Gou... Deputy Envoy Yang does not kill the civilians, but only the defenders."

"I am Hu Erniang. Deputy Envoy Yang said that whoever takes in the defenders will kill them all."

"Come out!"

"boom!"

A stone house was knocked down.

At the end of the long street, Ding Yuan sneered, "Just grind like this, he will have to grind for ten days before he can level the city."

On the [-]th, the reinforcements had already arrived.

When the time comes to cooperate with the defenders in the city, Yang Gou may not be able to stay.

Just thinking about this possibility made Ding Yuan short of breath.

"Yanggou, what are you waiting for?" Feng Shao wondered.

There are also some expectations.

Outside the city, a group of tall sergeants were putting on their armor.

"The deputy envoy said, you have to cover your whole body."

After putting on the armor, pull down the visor.

"Enter the city!"

These hundreds of sergeants walked into the city step by step with heavy steps.

On the other side, the genius doctor of Chenzhou... no, Chen Huagu, the genius doctor of Northern Xinjiang, and his disciples are making something... Half-dried grass is rolled into a ball, and some miscellaneous medicinal powders are put in it, and then wrapped in cloth.

"That's it."

Hundreds of sergeants are in place.

"Street fighting is afraid of sneak attack!"

Yang Xuan has watched the documentary. In street fighting, tanks are powerful weapons, but the risk of being destroyed is not small.Later, some countries figured out fire support armored vehicles.

A fire support vehicle with weapons all over its body can handle enemies appearing in all directions.

"Mo Daomen are in front, archers and crossbowmen are in the middle. Long spears and horizontal swords line up on both sides. Attack!"

Because of the constraints of the street, the array is long and narrow.

After receiving the order, the Modao fighters set off first.

The pikemen on both sides also wore heavy armor.

Only the archers and crossbowmen in the middle wear light armor.

Han Ji said: "Lang Jun seems to be prepared?"

Yang Xuan said: "Since we have decided to take the initiative to attack, street fighting is inevitable. I have been thinking about how to reduce the losses in street fighting for a long time, and today I will try it."

He has watched street fighting documentaries for a long time. Although the era of hot weapons is different from the era of cold weapons, the ideas are the same.

The best way to deal with street fighting is intensive firepower.

Find it and destroy it!
"The Mo Dao hand is in the front, it is like a tank... It is like an earthen wall, invincible. The archer and the crossbowman are in the middle, and they see the enemy who is about to attack. Shoot and kill. The spearman protects the two wings. ..."

Pei Jian said: "The enemy general must be looking forward to intercepting our army. When we get entangled, the enemy troops in the stone houses on both sides will make another sneak attack..."

Boss Yang said indifferently: "Before Mo Dao, what did he use to stop him? I can beat him to death in street fighting!"

The Mo Dao fighters set off in formation.

The sun shone on the heavy armor, and it looked like demon gods emerging from the ground.

Puff puff!
The heavy footsteps made the enemy soldiers in the stone houses on both sides look out through the crack of the door.

"They are here."

"Attack!"

Feng Shao pointed to the front.

An old soldier looked gloomy, "It's Yang Gou's Mo Dao Shou."

"What Mo Dao Shou?" Someone asked beside him.

"Murderous Mo Dao Shou!"

Feng Shao and the others had also heard about Mo Dao Shou. In that battle, it was Mo Dao Shou who blocked Lin Ya's Yunshan Cavalry, and immediately launched a counterattack.

But today is different!
The two sides are gradually moving closer.

Step by step, every step seems to be moving closer to hell.

At this time, the competition is about willpower, whoever can't hold on, loses!
The sound of the footsteps seems to have magic power, making one's heart jump with this rhythm.

getting nervous...

A Ming Dy flew into the sky.

This is the signal.

The doors of the stone houses on both sides are wide open.

The next step is to pounce.

But what they saw was the northern border army shrouded in heavy armor.

The smelting furnace in Taiping County has been burning for many years. With the guidance of Boss Yang, the quality of iron materials is getting better and better.

A pair of heavy armor has been forged. Apart from Mo Dao Shou, Yang Xuan also equipped the elite under his command with heavy armor.

The heavy armor made by skilled craftsmen looks quite delicate, covering the body tightly.

Without waiting for the defenders in the stone houses on both sides to attack, someone shouted, "Fire the arrows!"

Arrows shot out densely, and shot and killed the excited enemy soldiers from the open door.

Raid!
How exciting!

Taking advantage of the unpreparedness of the Northern Xinjiang Army, he killed and ran away.

The enemy army who had just taken a step fell down at the point where the arrow was hit.

The enemy army behind is still in a daze, spearman, here we come.

Zhao Yong shouted: "Kill!"

The dense spears stabbed in unison.

Those remaining enemy soldiers were stabbed behind the door.

"retreat!"

Zhao Yong returned to the formation with his subordinates and continued to move forward.

Later, a team of sergeants appeared.

They set fire to the half-dried hay wrapped in cloth bags and threw it inside.

The smoke is rolling!
A sergeant took a breath, "What is this... cough cough cough!"

He coughed like a tuberculosis, and tears and snot came out after a few tears.

Several black figures rushed out of the smoke.

"The people want to live!" Someone shouted.

The soldiers who rushed out were beheaded in the street, and the people were driven together.

"Shout out!"

"Old man Zhao, everyone in the neighborhood knows this old man... Deputy Envoy Yang killed the defenders, not the civilians.

Deputy Envoy Yang said that those who shield the defenders will be killed.I came out and surrendered, and went to farm as much as possible..."

"Men and young men, girls and daughters-in-law, the defenders want to serve the emperor, but what shall we do?
Deputy Envoy Yang...he is a good man!He made an oath that as long as the people surrendered, he would never kill a single person indiscriminately, if he violated this oath..."

The old man turned around to ask for instructions, Han Ji said: "If you break this oath, God will not help you."

"If you break this oath, God will not help you."

The old thief whispered: "Is this oath too poisonous?"

Han Ji shook his head, "God, what is it?"

The old thief looked back at the top of the city, and remembered what Lang Jun said.

——God is a fart!

Standing on the top of the wall, Yang Xuan said, "One side is dead, the other side is alive. To die or to live. This is a question. Tell Han Ji, call out, the guard is lying and wants the people to be buried with the guard."

He sneered, "I don't believe that the people of Beiliao are willing to die with the defenders!"

Pei Jian asked, "What kind of method is this?"

Yang Xuan touched his chin, "Psychological warfare!"

"Psychological warfare?"

Pei Jiu is a famous general, and the art of war he passed down can make all warriors fight for it.

But Pei Jian had never heard of psychological warfare.

The art of war is here... The old thief hurried to touch the booklet and charcoal pencils, and when he got them, he found that Jiang He'er had already started to record.

Old man, slow down!
"If you fight all over the city as soon as you enter the city, the people will be desperate.

When people are in despair, they often burst out with power that even they can't believe.

They will not fear death, even if they have no weapons, they will grab with their hands and bite with their teeth...

They will go berserk.Crazed civilians are more to be feared than sergeants.

I sent the trebuchet into the city. It seemed useless, but in fact it was shocking.

Amidst the huge roar, the stone house collapsed.The people will panic and despair.

But at this time, the attack stopped, and the captured people began to shout, expressing their position not to kill the people. "

"People are afraid of death." Yang Xuan smiled, "Once the despair is gone, it will be difficult to rise up again. Immediately, our army continued to advance. At this time, the general situation is set, what will happen to the people?"

He pointed forward, "They will open the door!"

Bah!
The door was opened, and just as the flanking sergeant was about to make a move, he heard someone shouting, "I will surrender!"

"Come out with your hands up!"

Zhao Yong shouted.

At this time, the sound of fighting came from the stone house on the other side.

The door opened, and a woman covered in blood came out holding the child, crying, "They're still inside."

Several sergeants rushed in and killed several enemy soldiers who were fighting with the people.

The people who came out began to shout.

"I'm Aunt Sun, Deputy Envoy Yang really won't kill us!"

Bang bang bang bang!

The sound of fighting came from one stone house to another.

Door after door was opened.

The stone houses that the defenders leaned on as a fortress became their graves instead!
Pei Jian looked back at Yang Xuan.

Yang Xuan got up, Wu Da hurriedly took Maza away.

Yang Xuan walked to the front and said:

"Tell Zhen Siwen, after an hour, I want to see the guard!"
