Chapter 386: The enemy is ahead of the enemy at the city head
Murong Nan looked into Liu Yu's eyes, and a sad look flashed across his face: "Moreover, the water must be a big lake, but you can't stay there for too long, otherwise the cattle and sheep will eat up all the grass sooner or later. So, we have to
Migration in the four seasons requires moving to different pastures in spring, summer, autumn and winter. No matter how powerful the tribe is, it will still face the problem of competing with other tribes for these pastures. Therefore, this kind of conquest and vendetta on the grassland never stops for a moment.
Pass!"
Liu Yuqi said: "So, you are just because food cannot be stored, so in order to make a living, you have to compete for pastures and water sources. Isn't it your nature?"
Murong Nan said sternly: "Liu Yu, we are human beings, not beasts. Even if we don't know the book and respond to courtesy like you Han people, we still know that we can't kill people casually and that plundering is not good. No one can be strong forever. Today, you are relying on me."
If you rob someone with force, but you create hatred, then when you are weak, others can do the same to you when they become stronger. There is no end to this kind of vendetta. Even a powerful tribe like the Xiongnu will decline one day. Anyone with a brain
The grassland overlord will never leave no room for others."
Liu Yu smiled slightly: "So you are thinking of taking the opportunity to move your family to the Central Plains, just to avoid this terrible grassland, where you will always be trapped in vendetta and face huge pressure to survive?"
Murong Nan sighed: "With this in mind, we will always face endless vendettas and battles outside the Great Wall, but the Central Plains will not. Even if the Yan Dynasty is destroyed, we can still stay. Liu Yu, if one day you in the Eastern Jin Dynasty really
We can conquer the world, I hope you won’t drive us away.”
Liu Yu curled up his lips: "We, the Chinese, have been hospitable since ancient times. Isn't the rebellion in Yongjia just because we stayed in the Central Plains and the barbarians of all ethnic groups repaid our kindness with our own people? If we restore the Jin Dynasty in the future, you Murong Xianbei will only need to be respectful.
, If you don’t cause trouble, I think at least I won’t drive you to the grassland beyond the Great Wall again.”
Murong Nan laughed: "You act as if you can decide the general trend of the world and the life and death of all people. Lord Liu, wake up, it's dawn."
Liu Yu also laughed: "Isn't this the topic you started? Well, instead of talking about this, let's talk about the current war. The shouts you just asked about when farming were also something I thought of in a flash. According to the art of war,
, it has to be powerful with drums and trumpets.”
Murong Nan nodded: "There are also gongs and drums at the top of the city, why do we have to use this method?"
Liu Yu smiled slightly: "The Qin army's numbers and gongs and drums far exceed ours. I'm afraid it's difficult to suppress their momentum just by playing drums. Besides, you can see what happened just now. The sergeants and civilians at the top of the city are very nervous and very nervous."
I'm afraid, otherwise there wouldn't be the conflict at the top of the city today. In this case, how can we yell at the enemy if we don't think of ways to mobilize their enthusiasm and morale?"
Murong Nan sighed: "Your sudden idea really worked wonders. I saw the light in their eyes. Their morale was really high now. However, you said before that they were fighting at the top of the city because they were afraid.
, I can’t understand it.”
Liu Yu said seriously: "Because the movements of the civilian men and the sergeants were very stiff, they bumped into each other. Maybe they didn't notice it themselves, and the sergeant and Dao Yan would quarrel when they collided, and it was also because of resentment and fear.
, so that the sergeant drew his sword against him, and Yanzhi also lost control of his emotions, and then there was a conflict. As for the civilians and sergeants who surrounded them, if it were normal times, such a confrontation would not break out."
Murong Nan nodded: "After all, the enemy is strong and we are weak. There are tens of thousands of Qin troops outside the city. Even if there are strong men captured in the city, there are still less than 10,000 people. It is normal for them to be afraid. Like the one to Yanzhi, he is not a Shouchun citizen, but the war is chaotic.
At that time, I was forced to stay."
Liu Yu said with a smile: "What is needed to defend the city is unity. If the people's hearts are dispersed, fear spreads, and the soldiers and civilians resent each other, it will definitely not work. The Qin army came so fast. They are Liang Cheng's elite troops. They will take advantage of this
We must attack with all our might, otherwise it will take too long and we won’t be able to capture it.”
Murong Nanqi said: "They will follow up with a large army. It would be more advantageous if it took a longer time. If I were Liang Cheng, I would not take the initiative to attack after seeing the high morale in the city today. Since surprise cannot be done, then
Just fight steadily, cavalry is good for field battles but not good for siege. Even a small soldier understands this truth."
Liu Yu shook his head: "Brother Murong, I bet you that Liang Cheng will definitely attack the city tomorrow."
Murong Nan shook his head in disbelief: "I don't believe it. He is a veteran and will not violate basic military common sense."
Liu Yu breathed a long sigh of relief, looked at the Qin army camp outside the city, and said in a deep voice: "The Qin army went south this time, and our army retreated without fighting all the way, abandoning the entire Huaibei. Fu Jian launched a large-scale recruitment campaign across the country this time.
One out of ten draws, and now millions of troops are marching south. There must be a lot of complaints in the country, and there are also many complaints among the soldiers recruited. This morale must be maintained entirely by victory and plunder."
"Liang Cheng is from Di and is Fu Jian's favorite general. The urgent arrival of light troops this time shows that there is already something wrong within them. In normal battles, the Qin army always uses foreign soldiers and horses as the vanguard. For example, last time they were all difficult to use.
Peng Chao's Xiongnu troops and the Han people will come as the vanguard, or when attacking Xiangyang, your lord's Xianbei people will be the vanguard, while the Di army will be used as a supervising force behind them and will not easily enter the battle."
Murong Nan nodded thoughtfully: "That's true. After all, the number of Di people is insufficient. If there are too many losses, there will be problems in the world of Qin. However, according to what you said, Liang Cheng led the elite of the Di people to advance
What are you doing here?"
Liu Yu's eyes flashed coldly: "Because they need victory, a big victory, to stabilize the morale of the army, to give hope to the troops of all ethnic groups who are following them south, and to stimulate their will to fight. Shouchun is the first one they encounter.
This is a large city that will not be abandoned, so we must capture it, otherwise, if the other tribes behind us see that they cannot conquer even one Shouchun, their morale will change and they will become even more passive in the fight."
Murong Nan sighed: "So, Liang Chenghui ignored the casualties of the Di army and attacked Shouchun? Then why didn't he attack the city when he first came? We didn't even apply mud at that time."
Liu Yu smiled and waved his hand: "Liang Cheng's cavalry can't fly, and they don't have siege equipment. How can they attack? However, the whole army's battle cry like this today is to test our strength in defending the city, especially to see
Our morale, now that he knows that our army has high fighting spirit and will not be intimidated by them, he will grit his teeth and attack tomorrow. As long as he can withstand this wave, Shouchun will be able to defend half of it!"
Murong Nan's eyes sparkled: "What can I do?"
Liu Yu smiled and put his hand on his shoulder: "Follow my orders, maybe your brothers will be of great use tomorrow!"
