Juyeze in Dongping County is actually not far from Liyang Cang in Ji County.On the surface, the defense of this important military location seems to be very stable, but in fact there is an opportunity to take advantage of it.

Chen Que'er pointed to the map and said: "Let's not say that Yang Xuangan didn't leave many real soldiers for Yuan Wuben to fight. People who eat and drink. Let’s just talk about Yuan Wuben, who has no experience in leading troops in battle. He was just a county magistrate before, and suddenly tens of thousands of people were given to him..."

Chen Que'er didn't say what happened next, but the other generals present understood.

Everyone laughed, Tie Liaolang laughed and said: "It's like, a beggar who has been poor all his life and you suddenly give him tens of thousands of money, but he doesn't know how to spend the money all of a sudden. Let him go to a restaurant , brothels, casinos, because he has always been a beggar, even if he has money in his hands, he is still a beggar. He may spend a lot of money when he spends it? Or he may be reluctant? In short, he will not use money in a short time. "

Chao Qiuge said: "That's right. Yuan Wuben was a beggar who got rich suddenly. He used to be a small official in the county town. He had at most a few people, a dozen or so people under him. He was suddenly asked to command tens of thousands of people to fight. He knows how to use people, just as a beggar doesn’t know how to use money, no matter how much it is, there is nothing to worry about.”

Niu Jinda laughed and said: "I just rushed back from Liyang, what you said is actually almost the same as the real situation. Yang Xuangan used the excuse that Donglai came to protect his children and rebelled, and sent an official document to summon the officers and troops from nearby counties to gather in Liyang, and then Forced to retain 8000 civilian husbands who transported food, they used canvas to cover the rain, and left Liyang after gathering a team of 3 people. He left Yuan Wuben to guard Liyang because Yuan Wuben was very Cautious, and very courageous. How should I put it, Yuan Wuben is somewhat contradictory in character. "

"When Yang Xuangan left Li Yang, he once asked his subordinates how to keep Li Yang safe?"

"Some people say that if you gather troops in Liyang City and block the four gates, you won't be able to hold out."

"Some people say that if the officers and soldiers are eager to attack the city, they should set fire to the granary and force the officers and soldiers to retreat."

"Some people say that the imperial army is still far away in Liaodong. Even if our commander-in-chief conquers the Eastern and Western Capitals, the imperial army might not be able to come back. Li Yang is actually not in danger."

Yuan Wuben thought for a while and said: "Assess the situation and move according to the camera. If the enemy is weak, I will attack and kill the enemy outside the Liyang warehouse, so as not to spread the flames of war to the granary. If the enemy is strong, stick to the city and wait for reinforcements to come." The inside should cooperate with the outside to destroy the enemy in one fell swoop.”

Niu Jinda smiled and said: "Yang Xuangan greatly appreciated Yuan Wuben's words, and pointed to his subordinates and said that you all came from military and military backgrounds, but you are not as good as Yuan Wuben's literati! So he took Yuan Wuben as Li Yang to stay behind, and sealed He is the prefect of Jijun, responsible for guarding Liyang and supervising the transportation of grain and grass."

"joke!"

Even the most honest Liu Man laughed.

"Assess the situation and move according to the camera?"

He said with a smile: "A literati, do you know what power is? Do you know what opportunity is?"

Chen Que'er joked: "Who said that literati can't lead the army? Look at Liu Shilong, didn't he judge the situation in Liaodong, and wiped out the 10,000+ troops of the Sui Dynasty with his camera? Help Ulji Wende repel our hundred Wan Dajun, you must not underestimate the literati!"

Daxi Changru glared at him and said, "Let's talk about the business first!"

Chen Que'er smiled embarrassingly and said: "At first, Yuan Wu didn't expect that his team would expand to such a large size in such a short period of time. I heard that the rebels who participated in Yang Xuangan would have enough to eat. , and guarding the Liyang warehouse will not worry about having no food in the future, so the peasants on the Yellow River and the canal, the refugees from nearby counties and counties, and even the horse thieves and bandits on the green forest road that gather in the mountains and forests have all sneaked into Liyang. , Yuan Wu will never refuse, and all food will be provided according to the standards of the soldiers."

"In this way, the common people in all directions became even more crazy."

Niu Jinda added: "In just three or four days, Yuan Wuben's team has increased from 5000 to [-]!"

"Actually, Yuan Wuben is not necessarily as unbearable as you say."

Li Xian smiled and said: "First of all, he doesn't know that we are thinking about Li Yangcang, he doesn't know that we have [-] elite troops in our hands, and he doesn't know that the head of Ju Ye Ze is no longer Zhang Jincheng. It is estimated that the army of the imperial court will start rushing back from Goguryeo at this time. The army of Yu Wenshu and Yang Yichen has already reached Pyongyang, and it will not take a while to get back. So Yuan Wuben is not worried about the recent period Someone is attacking Li Yang. He thinks that this period of time is a good time to expand the team, so he opens the door to recruit troops, after all, there is no shortage of food in Li Yang's warehouse."

"This is what Yuan Wuben said about judging the situation."

Li Xian said.

Daxi Changru nodded: "That's right, from the current point of view, Yuan Wuben did not make a big mistake. He is not as unbearable as you said. But you..."

Daxi Changru said earnestly: "After returning from Liaodong, everything went smoothly, and you have been victorious. You all have the heart to underestimate the enemy. This is not good. You should remember that no matter how weak the enemy is, only when you pay enough attention to him can you fight against the enemy. Win. If you can't look at your opponent carefully and calmly before every battle, then you are not far from failure."

"In your opinion, we are strong and Yuan Wuben is weak, which is wrong!"

Daxi Changru stood up, paced and said: "The men under Yuan Wuben really don't have much combat power, and the soldiers under your command are all veterans of many battles. Yuan Wuben is a literati who has never led troops in battle, and You are all generals who have been on the battlefield for a long time. It seems impossible to lose the battle, so let me ask you, you have seen your own advantages and Yuan Wuben's disadvantages, have you ever seen yourself disadvantages? See the advantages of Yuan Wuben?"

Everyone was startled, and then fell silent.

Daxi Changru is a famous general in the world, in terms of qualifications and experience, he is enough to be the teacher of these people, so what Daxi Changru said is also enough weight.

He was right. Since he came back from Liaodong, he went to Yanshan Mountain and went out to the north of the Great Wall to rob Xi people. Zhang Jin said in the two wars that the people in Yanyunzhai fought smoothly, so whether the generals or soldiers, they felt a little bit smug stand up.It's a troubled time, but none of the heroes of the Green Forest Road deserves the attention of the people of Yanyun Village.The Juye Ze bandits that Zhang Jin said were already a big force in the northern Green Forest Road, hadn't they been wiped out by their two battles?

And once this momentum of underestimating the enemy emerges, it must be stopped.

Daxi Changru has led the army for many years, he can see that although the current momentum of the team is strong, it is a bit vain.

Li Xian smiled and said: "Since Master asked, then you should think about it, what are our disadvantages, and what are Yuan Wuben's advantages?"

Everyone was silent for a while, Niu Jinda cleared his throat, and said with some embarrassment: "Liyang City is well-defended, with plenty of food and grass. Although Yuan Wuben's troops are not good at fighting, there is no problem in defending the city. If Yuan Wuben sticks to it If not, even if we can conquer Li Yang, we will definitely lose a lot."

Chao Qiuge added: "Our Yanyun village has never recruited soldiers indiscriminately, seeking excellence but not seeking many. Although a group of people have been selected one after another to enter the village, if there is a fierce battle, one veteran soldier will die. One, we don't go out to plunder the people, so once damaged, it is difficult to replenish our strength in a short time."

Liu Heikai said: "Although it is not far from Liyang, our army rushed over and the soldiers were exhausted. Yuan Wuben's men and horses are waiting for work at leisure, so they have an advantage."

Luo Fu thought for a while and said: "Although there are [-] strong soldiers in our village now, the focus of this expedition is on raids, so the cavalry from the Ruijin Battalion should still be the main force, but the cavalry cannot carry siege equipment, they can only It is very difficult to lure Yuan Wuben to go out of the city to fight and wipe out the enemy in one fell swoop outside Liyang City."

"Li Yang has food, which means that Yuan Wuben has no shortage of soldiers!"

Dongfang Liehuo said: "As long as Yuan Wuben releases food, the nearby people who can't get enough to eat will rush over like crazy."

Daxi Changru smiled and said: "Now, you see it much more thoroughly than before."

……

……

Others don't know, but Li Xian knows that Yang Xuangan's rebellion seemed shockingly powerful and touched the foundation of the Sui Dynasty, but it was wiped out by the Sui court in just two months.Yuwenshu only withdrew his troops from Liaodong on June 28, and in August, Yuwenshu had already suppressed the rebellion.Therefore, Li Xian only has less than a month to make Li Yang's idea.

If Yanyun Village wants to develop, it must expand its army, and food and grass are the foundation.There are millions of stones of grain in the Liyang warehouse, taking this opportunity to win Liyang will play a vital role in the future development of Yanyun village.

And Li Xian didn't have much time. Within a month, he had to capture Li Yang and transport the grain back to Juye Ze as much as he could.In fact, he didn't speculate on the one-month period, but if he really wanted to calculate it, it was only half a month.

Historically, Yu Wenshu withdrew his troops from Liaodong on June 28, and defeated the main force of the rebel army at the end of July. On the first day of August, only his younger brother Yang Jishan was left with Yang Xuangan. Yang Xuangan had no choice but to let Yang Jishan kill himself.This vigorous uprising lasted only two months.

The generals of Yanyunzhai discussed for a day, and finally decided that Li Xian and Daxi Changru would lead the cavalry of the Ruijin Battalion to Liyang first, looking for an opportunity to lure Yuan Wuben to go out of the city to fight. rout.Other generals led [-] infantry from behind, and their main task was to transport food to Juyeze.Zhang Zhongjian led [-] troops to guard Juyeze.

Just when the army was about to leave, a team of more than a hundred people arrived outside Juyeze.

The soldiers guarding the suspension bridge suddenly saw someone approaching the cottage, and immediately blew horns as a warning.Countless soldiers poured out of the stronghold and went up to the tower. The captain at the head stood on the arrow tower and shouted: "Who, stop and go forward!"
