Xiang Jing laughed: "Just defend the city. There are tens of thousands of people in the city and more than a thousand soldiers. It's not a big problem to hold on for one night. Wait until dawn and the reinforcements come back, and we will be saved."
Liu Yu smiled and shook his head: "The city on the grassland is not our city in the Central Plains. It is not so much a city, but a earthen fence. It is less than one foot high. You can probably climb up Tieniu without having to do it."
A ladder. Such a city is not so much to protect against enemy attacks as it is to protect against wind and sand and provide a centralized place for everyone to live."
Xiang Jing touched his head: "Ah, how come it's so bad? It's not even as good as a village in the Central Plains. If this is the case, then there is no other way but to run away."
Liu Yu curled up his lips: "If we run away, what will happen to the women in the city?"
Xiang Jing sighed: "Life and death are determined by fate. We can only accept our destiny. But women and children are generally not killed on the grassland. Perhaps, we can take advantage of this and leave them behind to buy time for ourselves to escape."
Liu Yu laughed: "It seems that our Tieniu has also made progress. This is also expected."
There was a burst of laughter from the surroundings, and Xiang Jing's face turned a little red: "Go, go, go, what are you fooling around with? This is not what we are doing. Isn't this following Brother Jinu's wishes? Which one of you has the ability to come up with a better one?"
Is there any way?"
Liu Yu looked at Tan Pingzhi: "Bottle, what will you do if I change you?"
Tan Pingzhi frowned: "These are not plundered women, but the family members of the tribal warriors. Tuobagui established a new tribe. These people are the most loyal people who came to join the army. Now that the men are away on war, if the women at home are like this, it will be in vain."
If you throw it to your opponent, I'm afraid you will lose people's hearts. If it were me, I might just go to the Dugu Department."
Liu Yu nodded: "Then since we can't abandon these women and can't beat them, what should we do?"
Tan Pingzhi gritted his teeth: "Send a group of warriors to take the initiative to attack, and use the terrain to catch the enemy by surprise. In any case, as long as you hit them head-on like this, you can slow down the enemy's behavior to some extent.
I have given you an explanation, and then arranged for the women in the city to disperse and escape. This is just like what Tieniu said. They all take care of their destiny and leave their baggage, food, grass, and property in the city. If necessary, they can also set fire to it.
In order to attract the looting of the enemy troops, Tuoba Gui himself led the combatants to flee lightly and join the main force outside. When the time came, he would kill the enemy troops who had robbed enough baggage. The so-called avoid their sharpness and attack their laziness.
Return, this is the art of war."
Liu Yu smiled slightly and looked at Wei Yongzhi: "Rabbit, do you think so too?"
Wei Yongzhi nodded and said: "Yes, and you can set up some suspicious soldiers in several directions outside the city. After the enemy troops enter the city, they can take turns raising fire and shouting, making it look like the army is counterattacking and attacking the city, so as to prevent the enemy's pursuit. Of course, those
It would be better if women, especially the wives and daughters of generals, could run with them."
Liu Yu looked around: "Does anyone else want to say something?"
Tan Daoji gritted his teeth and said: "I think the idea of Brother Bottle and Brother Rabbit is not feasible. If we do this, Tuoba Gui will definitely die!"
Tan Pingzhi laughed: "You have grown up, you dare to say this to your uncle, okay, then tell me, why can't you do this?"
Tan Daoji said sternly: "Because of this battle, the coalition forces of Dugu tribe and Murong Yong were not trying to capture Daning, rob women or grab luggage. They came thousands of miles to attack and stopped all the way. They deceived all the eyes and ears on the grassland and achieved this.
The suddenness of attacking Tuoba Gui at night, and even transferring the main force of Tuoba tribe to fight abroad must be part of this plan. Therefore, their target is very clear, which is Tuoba Gui's head. For this
, other goals can be given up. Moreover, nine times out of ten, they have internal agents and know the inside story of Tuoba tribe. In this case, escape is probably impossible. Abandoning women and baggage, probably
It is also a useless effort, the enemy will not stop for this."
Tan Pingzhi smiled and patted Tan Daoji on the shoulder: "Okay, what you said makes sense. It seems that the only way is to run away immediately, no matter what, right?"
Tan Daoji nodded: "Yes, the best way is to send a small group of troops to fight back, buy time, as uncle and Brother Rabbit said, and on the one hand disperse and break out. Tuoba Gui himself had better make up a
Soldier, let the substitute lead the guards to run east, while he runs north. Only in this way can he escape with his life. As long as his life is there, he will have a way in the future. During the grassland attack, these women are meant to be snatched here and there. The enemy is strong.
I'm weak, and if I'm attacked like this at the beginning, it doesn't matter if I suffer some losses. As long as he does his best, I believe his subordinates will understand."
Wei Yongzhi smiled and said: "It seems that you have not read these military books in vain, and it is a pity that Wang Zhene did not come with you this time. Jinu, just tell me directly, what happened in the end, is it the right way to go?
Did Daoji say that?"
Liu Yu said slowly: "No, in the end Tuoba Gui's choice was to lead all his troops into the tunnel under Daning City without notifying any of the people in the city, and then release hundreds of horses to let a few
A slave took him with him and headed eastward. In the dark night, it seemed like hundreds of cavalry were running away."
Wang Zhongde opened his eyes wide: "What does this mean? It will be safe if you get into the tunnel? Isn't he afraid that his opponents will come to search the whole city? There are tens of thousands of enemy troops, and it is a famous general like Murong Yong.
Sui, how could you just let him go like this?"
Liu Yu sighed: "Because there are baggage, food and grass in the city, and there are also many women, Murong Yong was afraid of an ambush in the city and did not dare to enter the city in large numbers. However, the people of the Dugu tribe rushed in and then raped and plundered wantonly in the city.
, Murong Yong's men couldn't hold themselves back and followed him in. You know, Tuoba Gui ran so fast that even his then Princess He Lanmin was thrown into Daning City, and this Princess Helan was left alone by dozens of people.
The generals of Xiyan and Dugu tribes took turns ravaging them, and all the sounds from above were clearly audible from less than a foot above my head, along the blowholes and wooden pipes. At that time, I was sitting with Tuoba Gui, listening to him
How the princess begged for mercy and screamed for mercy under the enemy's brutal behavior all night long until the fifth watch!"
Everyone was speechless. Xiang Jing shook his head in disbelief and glanced outside the city: "What did you say? Then Tuoba Gui, the leader of Wei who claimed to be sweeping the desert, just listened to himself like this.
A woman is being toyed with and does nothing?! I don’t believe it, even if I beat her to death, I wouldn’t believe it!”
