Chapter 880 Yanshan Snow, Yanshan Blood (31)
Daohai Zongyuan was still holding a meeting for equipment upgrades. To the south of Xijin Prefecture, he could only hear the iron hooves of the Jurchen soldiers stepping into the land of Yanyun.
The land of Yanyun is the last essence of Northern Liao. However, with Yelu Dashi pulling out most of the army and horses to Zhuoyi Prefectures. Under the empty defense, the remaining Liao army could only guard the city of Yanjing, which was deep valleys and high walls, and did not leave.
The Jurchen army still kept following Wanyan Aguda's orders, abandoning Yanjing without attacking, but just heading south towards Zhuoyi and the two states.
Of course, the Jurchen generals who had been tempered by the Liao and Jin War also knew very well how difficult it was to crack the northern Xiongcheng like Yanjing City, which had a solid city defense. Needless to say, the miscellaneous Hu cavalry that depended on the Jurchen headquarters could only wear armor tightly against the head of the tribe. The miscellaneous Hushangs such as Caogu were still very effective, and they could only give away heads if they attacked the city and siege.
Even the so-called "invincible" Jurchen elites who fought in Huanglong Mansion in the Liao and Jin Dynasty did not have any outstanding achievements in siege. Wanyan Loushi, known as the peerless general of the Jurchens, could only take out the old trick of arriving at the fortress in the face of the tightly defended city, and first ate all the Liao troops who came to aid, and then grind the city defense bit by bit like a mouse pushing a mill.
In the end, Wanyan Loushi, as the main general, had to climb the ladder with firewood on his back. When he robbed the city and set fire, even his boots were burned. Whether it was Meng'an, Mouke or Puliyan, the casualties were so heavy that even Wanyan Aguda was shocked. If it weren't for the first time of the Jurchens, there would be a few brave men who dared to fight but did not fear death, I was afraid that Aguda's great cause of destroying Liao would have ended here.
Now there is no need to attack Yanjing, and the Jurchen army and horses have even become addicted to plundering outside Yanjing City. Yanjing City cannot be defeated easily, but the villages, towns and forts in Xijin Prefecture are just a few Jurchens standing outside the wall and screaming. The powerful men who have built the villages took the initiative to load up a full cart of food and grass, tied up teams of people and soldiers, and personally delivered them to them!
But even so, most of the Jurchens still maintained relatively strict military disciplines. After all, Wanyan Loushi was a major general who presided over the battle of Huanglong Mansion, and was one of the few Jurchens. In terms of military merits and prestige, even Wanyan Zongwang and Wanyan Zonghan and other second-generation leaders had to respect him three points.
What's more, Wanyan Loushi's origin was not very low-level. Before Aguda unified the Jurchen tribes, the Loushi family was the leader of the Jurchen Seven Water tribes. Although after the rise of the Jurchens, Wanyan Aguda gradually began to consciously use Han methods, gradually no longer regaining the tribal political structure of the past, the power of the Jurchen generals still depends on the tribal forces they came from.
This is also easy to understand. Since the Jurchens started their army, the struggle for power depends on their respective military achievements. If they want to make military achievements, if they do not have the support of powerful tribes, they can only earn it with their own life.
At the age of twenty-one, he became the leader of the Jurchen tribes and at the age of forty, he became one of the few households in the Jurchen army. He even held the iron voucher for exemption from crime given by Aguda. Such a Wanyan Loushi was the object of envy and hard work for the Jurchen generals to imitate.
However, this powerful general among the Jurchens was sitting cross-legged on a bed, staring at the Mouke in front of him, a face that had been rough after the cold wind outside the border. The stubble that had not been carefully maintained was full of danger.
However, in the end, he just raised his hand: "The loss of the baggage, and Pu Liyan, who was escorting the team, was killed by someone. Cangtou, and Shengkou wrapped the baggage and escaped in the clean air. They all followed the old emperor Aguda and killed the tiger water from the press. He knew what the crime was. He dragged it down and hit him a hundred whips hard, so that he could have a better memory!"
What else Mouke wanted to tell, but in front of Wanyan Loushi, there was no room for him to speak? At that moment, the Loushi guard, who was like a wolf and a tiger, rushed over and took off the armor of Mouke's body in a few seconds. Regardless of the cold weather, he tied the person to the wooden pillar in front of the tent. The long whip of cowhide was whipped in the air, and the sound of the ground was crisp, and from time to time he would bring a few pieces of flesh and blood.
In the sound of whipping, Wanyan Loushi looked at the Jurchen generals under his head in Hu's bed. The voice was neither high nor low, but these Moukes were chilling all over: "A Puliyan army dared to escort more than a thousand Shengkou and transport supplies on the ground of Liao Kingdom. It was such a long line! Not to mention meeting the far-blocked horses that were far away from Liao Gou, even those clamoring mouths would be enough to cause trouble for us!"
"Don't think that the dog emperor of Liao has been broken by us. We can eat the Khitans in one bite, let their children and women be the Haizhen who herd sheep for generations, and Ya Haizhen who serves people! Liaodo also has a soldier in his hand, most of which are Yuanbianzima who dared to fight us to death at the beginning. They underestimate that they will suffer a great loss! We are wolf, Khitan is bear, and wolves cannot bite the bear to death in one breath, so that they can relieve themselves. We will suffer a great loss in the future!"
It seemed like he wanted to set off his words, and the whip outside was harsh and more anxious.
Wanyan Loushi ignored the unlucky Mouke, turned his eyes and fell on a thick Jurchen general beside him: "Yin Shuke, you are in charge of the front line provocate, let's talk about what kind of constitution is Zhuoyi two states?"
This stout military general is Wanyan Yinshuke, who is also an extremely important role in the history of the Jurchens' attack on Liao and Song.
But unlike Lou Shi who was born with a noble family and had a prosperous journey, Wanyan Yinshu was born in the Wendu small town. Although he defected to Wanyan Aguda very early, he also went to the Liao Kingdom several times as a Jurchen envoy, and even resolutely attacked the Liao faction. However, after a series of battles such as Dalu Ancient City and Huanglong Mansion, this Jurchen general was still just a conquering position, and it was difficult to go further.
On the battlefield, he was also an old subordinate of Lou Shi and an old partner, who was particularly concerned about military affairs. He stood up immediately: "The Khitan army and horses were carried by their big stone forest teeth, and they were heading towards the two states of Zhuoyi. According to the rewards, there were only more than a thousand elite soldiers. When facing Yelu Dashi's far-blocked horse, he would never dare to fight head-on, and would only defend the city and wait for assistance. We just had to stick behind us. When Yelu Dashi attacked the city, we would surround us. Whether it was Liaogou or southerners, we could eat it in one breath! It was just the old emperor Aguda..."
