Three hundred and fifty-eighth chapter of Xieli's calculation
Chapter 358: Jieli’s Plan
"It seems that these people are crazy. (This site changed its domain name) to attack so desperately." Zhou Qing looked at the Turkic soldiers rushing outside the city with a hint of surprise on his face. Faced with his multiple blows, he was unexpectedly
What Zhou Qing expected was that these Turkic soldiers rushed up to the city wall without fear of death. Even if the man in front of him was knocked off the ladder by rolling logs and rocks, even if his skin was burned to pieces by the molten iron, these guys' faces were not visible.
Without any sign of fear, he still brandished the machete and other strange weapons in his hands. He let out bursts of shouts and rushed towards the city wall. This kind of dismissal made Zhou Qing extremely curious. When did the Turkic soldiers
I'm not afraid of death anymore.
"Jie Li is worried." At this time, he only felt a gentle voice coming from next to him. Zhou Qing looked over and saw General Li Jing frowning. He didn't know when he had arrived beside him, and beside him, there was Xue Rengui.
When the general stood aside, looking at his appearance, I'm afraid these people have been here for a while.
"I've met the general." Zhou Qing didn't dare to be negligent and quickly said with his hands in hand.
"No need to be polite, you commanded well." Li Jing nodded approvingly and said: "He is calm in times of crisis, calm in situations, and has the air of a general. It seems that when he was with Rengui, he was also deeply influenced by him. No wonder
He dares to hand over this section of city defense to you. Not bad, not bad." Li Jing said two good things in succession, which made Zhou Qing very happy. You must know that Li Jing doesn't often praise others, but he didn't expect him to praise Zhou Qing this time.
He said two good things, which shows his admiration for Zhou Qing. Not to mention Zhou Qing, even Xue Rengui and others showed a glimmer of light on their faces.
"General, I don't know what happened to these guys today. They are not afraid of death. We have repulsed five waves of attacks. We don't know how many people we killed on the other side, but the other side still doesn't want to climb up the wall. It seems like
It’s like you’re here to die.” Zhou Qing pointed at the Turkic army swarming under the city and said.
"Jieli knew that I was coming, which means that His Majesty's reinforcements have arrived. It's just that the cavalry arrived first. Soon, the infantry will arrive. If he can't capture Dingxiang by this time, he may never be able to capture it again.
The chance to attack was determined by Xiang Xiang. That's why he attacked so desperately." Li Jing explained.
"I heard that inside the grassland, the status of Jieli Khan is not what we imagined. Apart from Tuli, there are still many people who are dissatisfied with his rule. Teacher, most of the cavalry under the city come from various tribes. For Ashi
That tribe didn't have much cavalry. Why did these guys obey Jie Li's words and attack Dingxiang so desperately? Aren't they afraid that all the power in their hands will be lost? Aren't they afraid that after the war, Jie Li will take advantage of this opportunity?
Opportunity to annex their tribes?" The person who spoke was Xue Rengui, with a hint of doubt on his handsome face.
"That's because of interests. If Jieli Khan can seize these people with absolute benefits, not to mention these tribes, even Tuli will send troops to help Jieli capture Dingxiang." Li Jing was satisfied with Xue Rengui.
He nodded. After the siege of Dingxiang, Xue Rengui, a disciple of Li Jing, finally made the world understand that the general was very powerful in fighting, but his disciples were also very powerful in fighting.
"Every bustle in the world is for profit, and all the hustle and bustle in the world is for profit. The world is so big that some people, for their own selfish desires, can communicate with foreign countries and kill kings and commit crimes. Not to mention these
Barbarians will fight each other as long as they have some interests. There is nothing these people can't do. Jieli is an old fox. This is his only chance now. If he doesn't seize it well, I have absolutely reason to believe.
When Jieli withdrew to the grassland, his position as Khan must have been unstable." At this moment, Lu Zhaoci led several people from the city tower and came slowly. Everyone hurriedly came up to greet him.
After the ceremony, he guarded Lu Zhaoci and watched the battle below the city. Of course, there were countless guards around to guard against the flying arrows.
"Look at Jie Li, this old fox. The cavalry of his Ashina tribe is stationed in the rear army to preserve his strength, while allowing soldiers from other tribes to carry out uninterrupted attacks on Dingxiang City. You will know what he is planning.
." Lu Zhaoci said with a smile: "Actually, in Jie Li's heart, I'm afraid he himself has no idea about this attack on Dingxiang. Otherwise, he will definitely use his elite to attack Dingxiang.
Come to show off the strength of the Ashina tribe, but this time he did not. This shows that he wants to preserve his strength. He is thinking that if this attack fails, he has the cavalry of the Ashina tribe and can still maintain it.
It's a pity that what this Jieli doesn't know is that if he doesn't care, how can he get others to serve him. I believe that soon, the morale of these soldiers will decline, and they will have no care at all.
The same goes for the leaders of the tribes who attacked Dingxiang City. They will also understand that they have been fooled."
"What your Majesty said is true." Changsun Wuji said with a smile on the side: "Looking at this, Jieli must have spent a lot of money, otherwise, these guys would not attack Dingxiang so hard. This grassland
The Master is different from us Central Plains Han people. The Central Plains Han people have a large population and tens of thousands of casualties will not shake the foundation of our Tang Dynasty. However, it is different in the grassland. The loss of tens of thousands of people will shake the foundation. What's more,
The Turks at this time are no longer the Turks of the past. Not only were they split into two parts, the East and the West, but more importantly, they were repeatedly defeated by His Majesty. There were countless casualties. If the losses were heavy again this time, I am afraid they would have to wait for His Majesty to send them.
The general led his army all the way north."
"If that's true, I've taken a big advantage." Li Jing proudly touched the beard under his chin and sighed: "It's a pity that I wasn't fully prepared for the court this time. Otherwise, I'm afraid Jie Li
There is no chance to escape. Our army relies on Dingxiang to first deplete the morale of the Turkic soldiers, and then take the opportunity to defeat the opponent. If we keep following the opponent, we will be able to sweep across the entire grassland like a plow. It's a pity, it's a pity." Everyone nodded after hearing this.
He nodded, with a look of regret on his face. The Tang Dynasty rescued Dingxiang this time in a hurry. Fortunately, it had been prepared for a while, otherwise, it would not even be able to gather the military supplies for the army. Although now,
There were some savings, but unfortunately, the preparations were not completed and could not support the army to enter the grassland. So it was a pity that everyone rushed there.
"Haha, it's a pity that the general didn't have to arrive. A peck and a drink will determine the outcome." Lu Zhaoci said with a smile: "Jieli has a strong army in his hands at the moment. Once our army enters the grassland, those grassland peoples will definitely assemble in groups.
As for attacking, in comparison, they are more afraid of our Tang army. Although they have enmity with Jie Li, once external enemies attack the grassland, they will unite, give up their prejudices, and temporarily unite to deal with our army together.
Tang Army, although I am not afraid of these, I do not want my soldiers to lose their lives like this. Only like this, although our army cannot restrain Jieli's cavalry in a short period of time, we can only wait for them to fight
When the battle is exhausted, our army will attack. At that time, the Jieli Ashina tribe will preserve its strength, and let the elites of other tribes charge forward, resulting in countless casualties. The scene will definitely arouse the grassland peoples.
Although I don’t know what method Jieli used to make these tribes willing to let their own tribe’s soldiers die, what is certain is that when these people return to the grassland, they will definitely be dissatisfied with Jieli. This
At that time, our army can go deep into the grassland and defeat them one by one. Not only can it quickly sweep across the grassland, but it can also minimize the losses of our army."
"What your Majesty said is true." Li Jing thought for a while and nodded: "Those who are good at using troops do not care about the gains and losses of a city or a place, or the victory or defeat of a war. A battle can be lost, but in
Strategically speaking, he cannot fail. He placed too much emphasis on profit over the victory of the battle. He ignored the strategic understanding, failed to see the overall situation, and focused on Dingxiang. Instead, he tied his hands and feet, and encountered His Majesty again.
If you are a master in using troops, you will naturally fail."
"Haha, the general praises me too much." Lu Zhaoci waved his hand and said: "If we talk about the use of troops, the general is more powerful. A casual plan can deceive Jieli Khan and defeat the cavalry, which can reverse the situation on the battlefield.
, even I can't do this. Li Qing, you have a good father. I hope you can learn from your father's military skills." The last words were addressed to Li Dejiang in the crowd.
"I am so stupid, I'm afraid I will disappoint Your Majesty." Li Dejiao glanced at Xue Rengui, who was next to Lu Zhaoci, with a hint of disappointment in his eyes. He was also following Li Jing, and even Li Dejiao followed Li Jing for a longer time.
But in terms of talent, the young man Xue Rengui far surpassed him, the son of Li Jing.
Everyone saw Li Dejiao's expression in their eyes, but they sighed deeply in their hearts. Looking at the heroic-looking Xue Rengui, their faces showed complex expressions. It must be said that marching and fighting sometimes also
It depends on talent. Sometimes it is not age that determines the quality of soldiers. Young commanders are everywhere, such as Huo Qubing in the Han Dynasty, who was an outstanding military genius at a young age.
.And Xue Rengui is obviously a military wizard in this regard. Although he has followed Li Jing for a relatively short time, he is deeply familiar with Li Jing's true heritage. He even put down his arrogance and personally invited Lu Zhaoci to inspect the martial arts, not just for the sake of the disciples in front of him.
? And the disciple in front of him is also very upbeat. A series of actions have shown people that he is capable of using troops, and he can indeed be called Li Jing's disciple.
"Don't worry, if everyone is an outstanding talent in every aspect, I won't be able to sleep well. Li Qing doesn't need to worry about this matter. Not only do I need a military genius, but more importantly
What's more, I need someone who is loyal to me. Li Qing is obviously the leader among them." Lu Zhaoci saw everyone's expressions in his eyes and couldn't help laughing and said: "Li Qing can go deep behind enemy lines with hundreds of people. Success.
The general who deceived Jie Li easily won the victory and entered Dingxiang City. Li Qing was indispensable. When he returns to the court, he will have his own general staff to discuss his merits, and I will not hesitate to reward him."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." When Li Dezhai heard this, the depression in his heart had long since disappeared. Being able to receive the reward promised by Lu Zhaoci himself was not necessarily something that anyone in the entire court could get. Just now
Any trace of inferiority disappeared without a trace.
"Your Majesty, look, Jieli Khan has appeared." At this moment, Changsun Wuji suddenly pointed to a place hundreds of steps below the city. Everyone looked around and saw countless iron cavalry guarding a middle-aged man, and that
The middle-aged man holds the golden eagle scepter. In the entire grassland, who else has this qualification except Jieli Khan.
"Yes, it is Jieli Khan." Lu Zhaoci sighed leisurely. Throughout the many years since he traveled through this world, he has defeated many enemies, but if we say this is the biggest enemy, he is undoubtedly the one in front of him.
Jieli Khan, by the Wei River, had no choice but to confuse the opponent. Now on the battlefield, in a head-to-head confrontation, he is undoubtedly the victor. It is a pity that a hero does not know the general trend of the world, and that is why he will end up like today.
Under the city wall, Jieli Khan didn't know what Lu Zhaoci was thinking on the wall. But he knew that not far ahead, under the bright yellow umbrella, surrounded by people, was the biggest event in his life.
The enemy Lu Zhaoci. He held the golden eagle scepter tightly in his hand, hoping that the golden eagle scepter would bring him a sense of calm. As he galloped across the grassland, he did not know how many tribes were wiped out, and all the tribal leaders were killed.
He became his own ministers or slaves, which expanded the strength of the Turkic tribe to the extreme. Under his leadership, the Ashina tribe firmly occupied the position of Khan on the grassland. However, he happened to meet Lu
According to Ci, from the initial defeat to the current strength, he has continuously defeated himself. He finally besieged him here. What he didn't expect was that a bad old man Li Jing was so powerful with his troops. With tens of thousands of cavalry, he just broke through.
After entering Dingxiang City, Dingxiang City, which was about to be breached, once again became a barrier to protect Lu Zhaoci, which made him extremely unwilling. But he had no choice but to continue commanding the army to attack Dingxiang City in the hope that
He hoped to capture Dingxiang City before the opponent's infantry arrived. He knew very well that if he could not capture Dingxiang this time, what would happen to him when he returned to the grassland. So he could not fail, so he used countless methods
, not only to avoid failure, but also to avoid what happens after failure. The overlord on the grassland can only be the Ashina tribe, and the master of the grassland can only be him, Jieli Khan.
"Humph, Lu Zhaoci, I don't believe that you can escape these people's crazy counterattack this time." A cold smile appeared on the corner of Jieli Khan's mouth, so insidious and cunning.
How tempting is the position of Khan on the grassland? Jieli was not very clear before, but the situation in front of him made it clear to him. Ruling the grassland is equivalent to having huge wealth, vastness and fatness.
The pastures will have endless slaves. Therefore, these tribes are rushing to be the first, hoping to wrest the position of Khan from the Ashina tribe and change hundreds of years of rules. They know that Jieli's promise is true.
Yes, as long as they capture Lu Zhaoci, they can inherit the position of Khan. More importantly, if they can capture an emperor of the Southern Dynasties, their tribe will become famous on the grassland, so whether it comes from
For whatever purpose, these people commanded their warriors to launch a fierce attack on Dingxiang City.
"Your Majesty, I don't know what this Jieli promised to these grassland tribes. He actually attacked Dingxiang so desperately. Aren't they afraid that they will be annexed by Jieli after losing their troops?" Changsun Wuji looked at the darkness below the city.
His face turned pale for a while. He had also gone deep into the grassland and met many Turkic tribal leaders and soldiers, but he had never seen such a desperate way of siege. He did not talk about any skills or any knowledge.
The layout of the city was basically a forceful attack, a lifeless force attack. Under this attack, the Turkic soldiers suffered countless casualties, but similarly, this lifeless fighting style also caused heavy losses to the soldiers defending the city, and more importantly, it had a negative impact on morale.
If the situation continues like this, even if the most elite troops of the Tang Dynasty come to defend the city, they may not be able to sustain it for long.
"This guy won't give up his position as Khan," Zhou Qing couldn't help but cursed.
When Lu Zhaoci and Li Jing heard this, their eyes lit up. It was probably the only way that so many tribes could launch such a desperate attack. Anyway, if this battle failed, Jieli, the Khan, might not be able to succeed.
We can't sit here for long, so we might as well take this opportunity and make a desperate move. Not only can we attract the attention of many tribes, but we can also sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, weakening the power of each tribe, but the Ashina tribe has not lost much power. Calculated in this way
Come on, Xie Li definitely got a big advantage.
"This Jieli is indeed an old fox, a hero on the grassland. If he really has this idea, it will be bad for Xiangcheng." Li Jing looked gloomy and frowned, and said to Lu Zhaoci: "I understand,
The Ashina tribe has ruled the grasslands for hundreds of years, and some people in the tribe have long been dissatisfied with the Ashina tribe's occupation of the position of Khan. It is only that the Ashina tribe's cavalry is strong, and other tribes are also restraining each other, which makes the Ashina tribe
That tribe is the dominant one. At this time, if Jie uses this method to stimulate the grassland tribes, those grassland tribes may really put aside their old grudges and attack Dingxiang City together."
"Don't worry, an alliance driven by profit will not last long. Pour some cold water on these guys first and let them calm down. After suffering heavy losses, they will understand that some things are not just what they want." Lu
Zhaoci snorted coldly.
"Yes" everyone looked stunned and quickly said respectfully.
