A small group of people from the Imperial Guard heard Yeluhu's address. They first looked blankly at the Queen standing at the top of the city, and then reacted: "See your Majesty."
"Your Majesty is here?"
"See Your Majesty."
One after another, the sky-shattering sounds came one after another. At this moment, all the soldiers guarding the capital of the Kingdom of Jin knew that His Majesty had personally climbed onto the city wall to supervise the battle.
Everyone looked at Her Majesty the Queen standing there with high spirits and high morale.
"Fellow soldiers, warriors of the Kingdom of Jin, you have worked hard. On behalf of the 600,000 people in the capital, I thank you."
Wanyan's gentle words were spread out one by one by the messengers.
Suddenly, a loud shout came from the city wall.
"Long live Long live Long live."
"Let the soldiers stick to their posts and don't relax because of my arrival."
"According to the decree."
"General Yelu, has there been any news from the scouts?"
"Your Majesty, the rebel vanguard of 50,000 troops is already about 20 miles away from the capital. They should be able to rush to the city in half an hour."
"You came so quickly. The soldiers guarding the city didn't show any fear of the enemy, did they?"
"Your Majesty, I dare to say this and hope that your Majesty will forgive me."
"I forgive you."
"It would be a lie to say that there is no fear. After all, the Imperial Guard has not really been on the battlefield several times, especially after the replacement of the older generation of soldiers. These are all young boys. Regardless of the high morale now, once blood is seen, the results will be
How, it’s hard to say.”
The Queen frowned and looked at the tens of thousands of excited guards on the city wall: "Do you have any good way to deal with it?"
"I am incompetent, and there is nothing I can do. An army that has not been baptized by the flames of war cannot do anything by relying on the prestige of the general, because after seeing blood, they will lose consciousness for a moment. The war is changing rapidly, and a careless person may be shot by a stray arrow in a moment.
Become a target.”
"So we have to let them fight at all costs?"
"That's right."
"But it will take a day and a half for the four armies from southern Xinjiang to arrive. If they fight regardless of the cost, the capital will be in danger."
"Your Majesty, I do have a bold idea that you can try. It's just a dangerous move. If you make one wrong move, you'll lose everything."
The queen's eyes lit up: "Tell me about it!"
Yeluhu pointed to a point on the map and said: "Your Majesty, the rebels' 50,000 vanguard army should be here, and their food and grass should be here. The main force of more than 300,000 troops has a large population, slow marching, and some
The team formed by the auxiliary soldiers and state soldiers will definitely slow down the progress of the army. It will take at least half a day to catch up with the vanguard army. I want to test the sword with the vanguard army first and temper the soldiers."
The Queen leaned forward and looked at the places pointed by Yeluhu: "Do you want to take the initiative and catch the rebel vanguard by surprise?"
"That's right, there are as many as 400,000 rebels, and there will be no less than 600,000 miscellaneous soldiers with various baggage, and the capital's garrison only has 150,000 soldiers at best. They must think that we are just caged birds at their mercy, absolutely not
Dare to take the initiative to go out of the city to meet the enemy, but I want to do the opposite, give them a trick, and kill their vanguard troops with lightning speed. There are still 140,000 troops in the city, and I want to lead a 100,000-strong army to attack quickly and defeat them.
They were caught off guard."
After hearing this, the Queen closed her eyes and began to think deeply: "General Yelu, one hundred thousand versus fifty thousand can indeed be defeated, and it can also train troops, but have you ever thought about what if these fifty thousand troops are their bait? Take the initiative to lure us out of the city to fight.
"
"That's why I said that this is a dangerous move for the army. If it succeeds, it will kill three birds with one stone. It can train the troops, give them a warning, and also delay their progress in attacking the city, giving General Longche and General Gaoling more time to support them."
.”
The Queen wandered hesitantly on top of the city. During the tea ceremony, the Queen looked at the map and thought deeply: "How long does it take for the cavalry to rush from Luoyue Valley to the rebel's grain and grass troops?"
Yeluhu looked at the map and said: "It will take about three-quarters of an hour. If the Turkic horses attack with all their strength, two-quarters of an hour is not impossible."
The Queen pondered for a while: "Hui'er."
"I'm here."
"The falcon sent a letter to General Jin Kezheng in Luoyue Valley, asking him to immediately rush from Luoyue Valley to the official road thirty miles outside the city to attack the rebel's grain and grass troops, so that he could not fight with the rebel's grain guards.
When soldiers are in close combat, they can only attack with bows and arrows from a distance, but they must act as if they must eat the rebels' food and fodder. When they see that the situation is not good, they should retreat immediately."
"yes."
Hui'er climbed down the city wall without hesitation.
The Queen looked at Yeluhu: "General Yelu, General Jin can delay the main force of the rebels for at most half a day. Whether you can kill the vanguard depends on your ability."
Yeluhu also understood the Queen's plan, letting the rebels think that they were planning to burn their food and grass, so they would definitely do their best to support them, and the vanguard would be left alone and helpless.
"I obey the decree and will definitely not disappoint His Majesty."
The Queen shook her head gently: "Don't let down the hundreds of thousands of people behind you."
"I understand."
"Let's gather together."
"I obey the decree."
Looking at Yeluhu's back, the Queen murmured: "Am I being too impulsive in doing this?"
"Here comes someone."
"His Majesty."
"Go to the Yingbin Post to invite the two chief envoys of the Dalong Mission and tell them that I invite them to come to the city wall to watch the battle."
"According to the decree."
"Third brother, are you done?"
"It's almost done, what's wrong?"
"Emperor Jin sent someone to invite us to watch the battle at the city wall and is waiting outside."
"City wall?"
"That's right."
"If you don't go, arrows will rain down on the city wall. It'll be a disaster if you get shot!"
Song Qing looked awkwardly at the astonished female officer beside him: "My lord, don't be offended. Lord Liu usually likes to joke. He should come out soon."
However, the slap in the face was caught off guard. After the two cups of tea, the door was still tightly closed without any movement.
The female officer looked at Song Qing and was a bit joking, "What time was it promised to be? How many times has it been?"
"Master Liu!" Song Qing's serious voice came in.
Young Master Liu, who was sealing a large wine jar, suddenly trembled, and the cold sweat on his forehead flowed down uncontrollably: "Song Qing, your grandma, if you dare to say one more thing, I will fight for you, do you believe it or not."
Song Qing was a little stunned when he heard Young Master Liu's hysterical curses, and immediately understood that his third brother must be doing something secretive, so he became quiet.
He nodded calmly to the female officer on the side: "Wait a little longer, Mr. Liu should be busy with some official duties."
The cautious Young Master Liu finally sealed the last wine jar and breathed a sigh of relief. He slumped on the chair and said, "I still miss the old days of various instruments. It was too scary to do these with bare hands."
Young Master Liu stacked up various wine jars and poured himself a cup of tea: "Master Song, come in."
"I said, third brother, what are you doing?"
Liu Mingzhi looked at the female officer following Song Qing and nodded: "It's just a little gadget."
