back to ancient times to be emperor

Chapter 82
Yelu Zhongyuan was not reconciled to failure, and made another plan if one plan failed.He thought for a while, and asked: "If you lure Shun Gou to fight, how should you use your troops?" At this moment, he put down his grand uncle's airs, and asked his son about his strategy.

But what he didn't know was that his son was also an idiot, only a little better than his big idiot.After all, Yelu Nerugu has a lot of force, has also been on the battlefield, and knows the basics of army mobilization.Yelu Chongyuan was born noble and never used a sword or gun, so naturally he didn't know much about the battle formation, otherwise he wouldn't have attacked Youzhou City for so long without making any achievements.

Yelu Neilugu said: "Just... so and so, you can deceive the enemy, thinking that our army... when the time comes, our army... will be able to catch Shungou all at once..."

Yelu Zhongyuan clapped his hands and laughed loudly: "In this way, I won't be afraid that Shungou will not be fooled! Good tricks, good tricks, my son is really extraordinary!"

Yelunelugu said triumphantly: "Father has won the award. I have been thinking about this plan for a long time, and I think it is quite feasible. It's just that if you want to act this scene, you need to see some blood to be realistic!"

Yelu Zhongyuan sneered and said: "If you can break the city, let alone see some blood, no matter how high the price is! As a father, I don't want to be ridiculed by those shameless villains for my incompetence after returning to Shangdu. Youzhou City, I am Determined to win!"

The two of them made some secret calculations and worked out the detailed plan before Yelu Neilugu returned to his camp contentedly.As soon as he stepped into the camp, a figure flashed in and said flatteringly: "General, the last general is right, this plan is absolutely feasible!"

Yelu Nelugu nodded in satisfaction, and said: "Yes, your plan is good, let me show my face in front of my father. In this way, my younger brothers will have no chance, and the tribe will definitely fall. In my palm! When the time comes, you are my current position!"

Hearing this, the man laughed even more obsequiously, and said: "In that case, the last general will go out!" After speaking, the man left the camp quickly.They thought they were doing it flawlessly, but they didn't know that there was a pair of eyes in the dark staring at them.After Yelu Nerugu came out of the camp of the Chinese army, these eyes never left Yelu Nerugu's whereabouts.

On the battlefield where there are many dead and wounded, the night looks so miserable.Occasionally, there is a wolf howl, as if you are in a pack of wolves.People who have never experienced the battlefield, hearing the miserable howling of wolves, combined with the screams of wounded soldiers who are still alive in the city, can't help but get goosebumps all over their bodies.

Fortunately, neither side ever sent surprise soldiers to attack at night. After all, in this era, most people are night blind, so the difficulty of night attack can be imagined.

The frontier army guarding the city has changed. This is Zhu Daguang's experience gained through practice.After a day's fighting, the previous frontier soldiers would not be able to lift their arms tomorrow even if they only fired an arrow every once in a while.What's more, the frontier soldiers were exhausted without the arrow feathers stopping.Even if we try our best to fight the next day, we won't be able to get away, and I'm afraid there is still a danger of falling.Therefore, it is necessary to send a reserve team at night.

The frontier soldiers guarding the city sleep against the city, enjoying the rare moment of peace.They knew that if they didn't rest well, they might be the ones who would fall down tomorrow.

All night.

The next day, when the sky was just dawning and the waning moon was still hanging in the sky, the guard soldiers with excellent eyesight who were in charge of looking out suddenly found that the enemy barracks seemed to be in chaos.He didn't dare to neglect, and hurriedly struck the gong.

The defenders of the city who heard the sound of the gong immediately woke up.They all slept in armor, and when they stood up, they had habitually held their weapons in their hands.

After the frontier soldiers got up, they noticed something wrong in the enemy camp with sharp eyes. It seemed that there was a fight, and many people were killed.After hearing the news, Zhu Daguang arrived, lying on the top of the city, and seeing this scene, he couldn't help frowning, and said to himself: "What the hell are the Khitan people doing? Could it be that the reinforcements have arrived? Impossible, I have never heard of it." Say there are some reinforcements..."

At this time, his personal soldiers suddenly saw that those Khitan people seemed to be fighting for something, but his eyesight was not very good, so he could barely see a general idea, and said, "General, are they fighting for something?"

This sentence was originally said unintentionally, but it reminded Zhu Daguang.A thought flashed in Zhu Daguang's mind: "Could it be..."

But at this time, people in the Khitan military camp were in panic. It turned out that before dawn, there was a news from the Khitan military camp that the military rations were not enough.Originally, the Khitan army did not need additional supplies of food and grass, and they all prepared their own military food.But the fodder for the horses is not something they can prepare by themselves.Although Youzhou also has a horse farm, the pasture is not abundant.In addition, farmers reclaimed farmland, which has already destroyed the grassland in sevens and eighties. After the thin layer of soil on the grassland was turned over, it quickly lost its fertility and turned into a sandy land.

Over the years, coupled with the frontier army's settlement policy, the grassland has been severely damaged, and there is no grassland outside Youzhou City.Therefore, the horses of the Khitan army, without a rich source of pasture, became listless, and even their explosive power dropped a notch.

After Yelu Hongji became emperor, he slightly improved his relationship with the Han people, and also learned a lot of etiquette of the Han people. Even the military rations began to be partly supplied by logistics.Although every Khitan cavalry also provided their own food, but after all, it was getting less and less.

No, when I heard that the army was running out of food, someone immediately started making trouble.Especially the tribes in the northwest, their tribes were originally rebellious and impermanent, and they repeatedly provoked frontier quarrels, and gradually became the confidant of the Liao Kingdom.In addition, the conscription system is a hard job for the tribes in the northwest, the long marching road, and the harsh border environment, and there is not much benefit in winning the battle.The tribes in the Northwest have already suffered from heavy military corvees and miscellaneous labor, and rebellions have appeared from time to time.

At this time, they heard that even the army rations were gone, so they quit immediately and started to make trouble in the camp.They had long coveted the Han army's rations, and now they had an excuse, and they were even more unscrupulous, rushing into the Han army barracks was a random grab.

In the Han army, there are also bloody people, how can we see it?The two sides disagreed with each other, and immediately started to fight.At the beginning, it was still punching and kicking, and later it gradually developed to adding swords and guns to the body.From time to time, soldiers fell on the road to grab grain, and even soldiers from Bohai, Xi, Shiwei, Woyilat, Balhun and other tribes also joined the ranks of grabbing grain.Later, the previous contradictions were aroused again, and all the spearheads were aimed at the Khitan soldiers who had the best food.The Khitan soldiers were not vegetarians either, and they lost their lives immediately.

This time, it can be regarded as stabbing a hornet's nest. The soldiers of the northwest tribes have lived in the bitter cold since they were young, and they are the most brave.How could he hold back the anger in his heart when he saw his clansman fell in the hands of the Khitan people?Immediately, risking his life, he rushed forward and fought hand-to-hand with the Khitan soldiers...

Xiao Feng was shocked when he heard the news, he knew very well the seriousness of the mutiny, if things go wrong, the [-] troops will be destroyed by internal strife.He rushed into the camp of the Chinese army in a hurry, and said to Yelu Chongyuan, who had been leisurely, "Uncle Huang, there has been a mutiny outside, hurry up and order to suppress it, otherwise it will be too late, and it will be difficult to deal with it!"
