Chapter 114 How to improve morale without winning the battle(1/2)

thump!

Xue Pan collapsed on the ground, terrified.

The gold-medal command arrow is equivalent to the emperor's personal visit, and officials below the third rank can kill it first and then display it.

He had no power just now, and Wu Ling wanted to kill him!

Now that he has a gold medal command arrow and it is justifiable to kill him, how can he let him go?

"..."

Thinking of his relatives imprisoned in Kyoto, Wu Ling suppressed the murderous intention in his heart and raised the gold-medal arrow in response to the order: "Come here, the commander Xue Pan, who was timid in the face of danger, drank wine and watched dancing, was greedy and amassed money, and took off his commander's seal, temporarily.

Imprison the commander in the palace!"

call!

Xue Pan breathed a sigh of relief. As long as he was not killed, everything could be undone with the strength of the Xue family.

The soldiers in the mansion were startled, then stepped forward, pulled off Xue Pan's official uniform, took off his seal, dragged him down, and imprisoned him.

Xue Pan cooperated throughout the entire process!

In the current situation, Wu Ling taking over the command would be a relief for him.

The Huangren conquered Jiushan County, and Wuling was also responsible, not him!

Walking towards Wang Yuan, Wu Ling smiled bitterly: "Sir, I didn't kill Xue Pan. Are you very disappointed?"

Wang Yuan sighed: "I understand you!"

As soon as he took over as the commander-in-chief, he killed the noble commander and envoy. What would the court think?

Many of the generals in the army were promoted by the Xue family. If they killed Xue Pan, they would be disobedient.

There are also Wuling family members who are also in Kyoto, so they are trying to avoid rats.

"Thank you for your understanding, sir!"

Wu Ling saluted and presented the golden arrow: "Please sir, be my military advisor and help me repel the deserters!"

"I will try my best to help you, but forget about the position of military advisor!"

Wang Yuan shook his head in shock. He really didn't expect that Wu Ling would give him the gold medal command arrow.

Wu Ling said sternly: "Sir, if your name is not right, your words will not be true. Only if you become a military advisor and hold the gold medal command arrow, can you deter the rebellious generals in the army, mobilize the resources of the army, and make a large number of three-bow crossbows and Zhuge Liannu."

"All right!"

Wang Yuan took the gold medal command arrow.

"Thank you, sir, for accompanying me on this single-plank bridge in this critical moment!"

Wu Ling cupped his fists and bowed his head in a big salute: "Now the morale of the military and the people in the city is extremely low. It is difficult to attack and defend. Thank you very much, sir, for taking the risk with me!"

The deserters have set up camp, and the cavalry army is ready to go. There is no chance of leaving the city for a night attack.

The army in the city is not half as good as the deserters, and their combat effectiveness is not as good as that of the deserters!

No one believes that he can defeat Huang Ren.

Wang Yuan pondered slightly: "In fact, it is not difficult to boost people's morale!"

Wu Ling's eyes lit up: "Sir, do you have any idea?"

Wang Yuan smiled slightly: "I have some ideas. Let's go to the city and have a look first!"

Carrying a three-bow crossbow and climbing onto the northern city wall, Wang Yuan was immediately shocked.

Three miles away, the deserted people's camps were rolling up and down, as far as the eye could see.

Outside the camp, tall war horses carried cavalry wearing iron armor.

The breathtaking atmosphere of the warriors and warriors is breathtaking!

The deserted people nearby are auxiliary troops, Daye surrenders troops, and they use ladders, rams, and trebuchets to attack the city!

boom!

The catapults fired large stones and hit the city wall and the urn city. The gravel splashed onto the soldiers, and their bones and tendons were broken immediately!

Rushing the cart, the moving siege tower was pushed directly to the foot of the city wall, with Huangren soldiers shooting arrows from it. With every arrow, a Daye soldier would fall.

Ladders were put up on the wall one after another, and auxiliary soldiers and surrendered soldiers climbed up one by one.

On Daye's side, the soldiers used bows and arrows, giant crossbows, to defend the city, to attack carts, to insert stems, to fly hooks, to roll logs, to stones, to use hot oil, and gold juice in turn.

Soon he ambushed the troops and surrendered them to behead them.

In just a quarter of an hour, Wang Yuan witnessed various methods of attacking and defending cities in ancient times.

Blood and fire intertwined, and fresh lives were lost in the war.

"See Young Marshal!"

A group of generals appeared and saluted: four generals, eight generals, and twenty generals.

Wu Ling took over as the commander-in-chief and received the gold medal and arrows. However, news about Xue Pan spread throughout the military camp.

At this time, among a group of generals, half looked excited and excited, while the other half looked ugly.

These people are all promoted by the Xue family and can be regarded as a noble lineage.

"You don't have to be polite!"

Wu Ling waved his hand and pointed at Wang Yuan and said: "This is Mr. Mingtan, the military advisor I hired. From now on in the army, his words will be my words!"

"military adviser?"

Many people came to look at Wang Yuan curiously.

To be able to be hired by the young marshal as a military advisor, there must be something extraordinary about this young gentleman.

"Young Marshal, as far as I know, Mr. Mingtan is a scholar and has never been on the battlefield. How can he command us? If we listen to him, who will be responsible for losing the battle!"

Suddenly, General Huang Hao stood up with a rebellious expression on his face.

Many generals frowned.

Huang Hao is a direct descendant of the Xue family and came to Jiushan County to serve as an escort for Xue Pan.

"I am the commander-in-chief. If you obey the military orders, I will be responsible for the defeat if you lose the battle!"

Wu Ling's eyes darkened: "But if someone violates the law openly and secretly, don't blame me for the military law to deal with it!"

"With these words from the young commander, I will feel relieved!"

General Huang Hao cupped his fists and said, "Young Marshal, there are many urgent problems right now. You might as well ask the military advisor to solve them."

Wu Ling's eyes darkened.

Wang Yuan narrowed his eyes and smiled: "Tell me and listen!"

This general clearly wanted to embarrass him and make him lose face!

Indirectly attacking Wuling's prestige.

General Huang Hao said solemnly: "Now the enemy is outnumbered and we are outnumbered. The army has not been paid for half a year. Please think of a solution, sir!"

Many generals frowned.

The morale of the soldiers was low, mainly because they felt that this battle could never be won.

As for the non-payment of military pay, in addition to the court's arrears, it is also due to layers of deductions.

Neither Xue Pan nor Huang Hao had their military pay deducted, and they were no exception.

This has become a common practice in the military. Huang Hao brought up this difficult problem and no one could solve it.

Wu Ling frowned. No one can solve this big problem of military pay!

"No military pay for six months!"

Wang Yuan was shocked. It would be strange for someone to risk his life without giving him any money. He thought for a moment and said, "General Huang is right. This problem must be solved."

General Huang Hao sneered: "Then please ask the military advisor to solve it!"

It's easy to say, more than 20,000 soldiers receive six months' military pay and more than 100,000 taels of silver!

See how you can solve it.

Wang Yuan said: "Since General Huang is suing for the soldiers, it just so happens that the commander Xue Pan has been selling official documents these two days and made a lot of ill-gotten wealth. You go to the commander's residence to search for gold and silver. The young master and I will

The commander personally pays the soldiers!"

"you!"

Huang Hao was so angry that he wanted to vomit blood.

He proposed to pay the army, and Wang Yuan asked him to lead a team to steal Xue Pan's gold and silver.

This would make Xue Pan and the Xue family think that by doing this behind his back, it would be like shooting himself in the foot.

hiss!
