Eight Hills in the Eastern Jin Dynasty

At the head of Linqu city, all the generals of the Yanjun monarchs and ministers were all dignified. In this position, the **** battle more than half an hour ago can be seen in full view, even when he burst in from Heshengge and was besieged by an ambush. It was clear, but it took more than a quarter of an hour from the launch of the ambush of the Jin army to the end of the five thousand turbulent horses, and even the sound of the golden gong had not had time to reach the front. Now, the opposing Jin army is in formation. Cheers, "Destroying Hu" and "Mighty" sound shook the world, but our army was in dead silence. Even the many defenders at the top of the city were expressions of fear, traversing the world, invincible. Yanjun of the Murong clan even has today, I am afraid that everyone will suspect that they are in a dream when they see it.

Duan Hui gritted his teeth and looked at the black robe: "National division, the forwards of our army have been wiped out, the morale has been depressed, and the soldiers have a fearful heart. Is it not appropriate to fight again today? Should we stop and defensively? Yingzhai, it is expected that the Jin army can only stalemate with us."

Heipao said coldly: "Could it be that if you drag it down, there will be a turning point? General Duan, just after the Jin army passed Daxian, thousands of Han rebels went to defect, even the remnants of Pilu who had been incognito for many years. They came out, and today they are victorious again. If they set up a camp and confront each other, I am afraid that people everywhere will come to vote. And our army is concentrated here, and the rations and materials consumed are huge. Even if they rely on the big city in Linqu The warehouse is enough to eat for a month at most. The longer it is, the more disadvantaged it will be for us."

Having said that, he paused and said in a deep voice: "Furthermore, the Jin army is now like a rainbow. If we retreat again, it will only make them more arrogant. At that time, we may not give our army a chance to camp and confront, even Maybe it will attack Linqu City. Or it may attack our camp outside the city."

Helanlu shook his head: "It won't happen. They came from a long way and don't have equipment for siege and siege. How can they attack and siege forcibly?"

Heipao sighed: "Look at the Jin army coming in line today, and there is no big camp set up, but it is ready for a strong attack. The hundreds of thousands of our army are concentrated under the city and can only fight in the field. Receiving troops normally, now they are less than five miles away from our army. If our army wants to withdraw into the city or be distributed to various camps, it will inevitably cause chaos. Back then, Qin retreated before the battle because of the Battle of Feishui. As a result, the Northern Army took advantage of the situation to make an assault, and even collapsed across the board. This lesson is in sight, and you can no longer discuss it. The only solution for now is to fight them without retreat."

Duan Hui nodded: "The national division made sense. It depends on the large shields of the front line of the Jin army. They can rely on these war materials to forcibly siege the city and break the camp. Our army will retreat when it faces the enemy. Moreover, the cavalry of our army is mainly used for field offensive and not good for defensive camp. It is a big taboo for soldiers to meet the enemy's commander because of their shortcomings."

Speaking of this, Duan Hui paused: "Guo Shi, the morale of our army is now declining. Gongsun Gui’s Tuqi is the elite of our army. It has just made merits in Jiangbei. It’s no wonder that such an army has been wiped out so quickly. Soldiers are afraid, and now they may only be able to send out armor and cavalry to break the formation of the Jin army frontally and force them to retreat, so that morale can be boosted."

Duan Hui gritted his teeth and began a military salute: "Your Majesty, the national teacher, the last general is not talented, I would like to lead five thousand armored riders in a burst. If you don't win, come and see you!"

Murong gave a super fierce high-five: "Okay, General Duan deserves to be the pillar of my great Yan, his loyalty and bravery, at this time, only your tactics can boost the morale of the whole army, national teacher, I think..."

The black robe said calmly: "Armored armor has always been the killer of our army, the most important weapon of the country, it is rarely used until the final battle, and the armored armor is generally not used to assault the enemy with a strong defense and high morale. On the front, as I said before, it is often used when flank assaults or when the enemy's formation is chaotic."

Speaking of this, the black robe pointed to the Jin army formation in front of him: "Don't think that the Jin army's front army did not put out carts and antlers. If you reject the horse, you think they can't withstand the charge of the iron cavalry. Just now, did you see that their formation? In the middle, murderous, there are agencies ambush everywhere, stumbling horses, swords and shields can be launched at any time, their elite soldiers can be kept in the second and third rows, taking turns to attack, and use dummy or weak soldiers to lure me in front , If you attack head-on, even if it’s armored, you won’t necessarily be able to win."

As soon as these words came out, everyone's complexion changed, and Murong Chao shook his head in disbelief: "Guo Shi, are you too pessimistic? Can't you even defeat the enemy in armor?"

Heipao sighed: "If the enemy has a complete formation, kills the formation everywhere, rushes to the front of the enemy, the outcome is unpredictable. Armored armor is the treasure of the town, easily immobile, if the armored armor is deployed, it still cannot Defeat the enemy, I am afraid that other armies will collapse without a fight. Therefore, now is not the time to dispatch armored horses. The advantage of our army is still in the large number. The loss of 5,000 forwards is not It hurts the roots. Now our army is still about three times the enemy's, and I still have the advantage. As long as the morale is restored and I follow my orders, it is not too difficult to break the thieves."

Having said this, Heipao said solemnly towards Murong Chao: "The battle just now proved the minister's judgment. He also hopes that his majesty will be able to use people without any doubt, and give the minister full power to control the army, and with the punishment of life and death."

Murongchao gritted his teeth and said: "The judgement of the national teacher just now, and the generals you used to talk to me about the army, convinced me, but after all, you have not been in front of the generals before. I am afraid of the command. Next, there will be people who are not convinced. It's not that I can't believe in the national teacher."

Heipao smiled slightly: "The authority of the chief comes from the authorization of the king. The generals refuse to obey the orders. It is also because although your majesty has given the position of ministers, he has not really authorized. You sit back and watch the battle. The generals look to your majesty better than to see. This is why Gongsun Guidan openly violated the order to me, the commander. Since ancient times, the art of war has stipulated the supreme authority of the commander, and this can be forbidden. In the past, Wu Guosunwu trained the army by cutting off the king’s favored Ji in order to establish his power. From then on, Wu Bing dare not obey. Today, the minister hopes to use his majesty's orders in exchange for the obedience and obedience of the whole army."

Murongchao stood up, drew out the saber beside him, handed it to the black robe, and said in a deep voice, "With the merits of the national teacher to Dayan, I will give you nine tins. Fake Huangyue is also OK, but the military situation is urgent now. I can’t bestow the Nine Tins as usual, so I have the authority and grant you the saber of the Son of Heaven. You are not only the commander of the whole army, but also represent my authority. Everyone in and outside Linqu City, except for me, can cut first and then play. , Act in military law!"
