Chapter 134 Confidence

However, even so, Dunpiga dared not refuse the request of Biebosilin.

The Great Food Kingdom is still fighting with the Tang Kingdom. If he leads his troops away, Bingbo Silin will not do anything to him now; but after the war with the Tang Kingdom is over in the future, they may have to go far away and leave the Yili River Basin, which is rich in water and grass. It is even impossible to rule out that the Great Food Kingdom wants to kill the chicken to warn the monkey and have to go to their death.

‘For the future of Gelulu, I can only strive to attack the city. The tribal warriors who died, your lives will be exchanged for Jieshan and Yuluzhou, and will not be lost in vain.’ Dunpiga comforted himself in his heart.

"Do you have anything else? If not, go back and build a camp and prepare to siege tomorrow. The catapult I promised will be sent to your military camp early tomorrow morning." Dunpiga was thinking, and Bersilin said.

"Yes. Then I'll take my leave." Dunpiga stood up, bowed and bowed again, turned around and got off the boat.

"Do you think he will do his best to attack the city?" Bingbosilin asked Saleh and Houmede.

"He dares not to do his best to attack the city!" Hou Meide said, "If he doesn't attack the city with all his strength, he will not be spared!"

"According to the original heart of Dunpiga, of course he is unwilling to attack the city with all his might. However, if the governor is here personally, he dare not play tricks." Saleh also said.

"You are right." Bingbo Silin smiled and said, "This is also one of the purposes of leading troops to fight. With me, Dunpiga will never dare to slack off. Even if he doesn't want to, he can only attack the city with all his strength."

"And the problem of slackness exists not only in barbarian tribal armies like Geluo, but also in our own army!"

Bingbo Silin's face became serious and said, "Because the Qin State Anxi Protectorate has weak troops and seems to be able to be easily defeated. The generals also have the idea of ​​preserving their strength in their hearts. They are unwilling to let the soldiers under their command suffer too much, and hope that other troops will bear the losses."

"The soldiers also began to want to enjoy life after the war and were unwilling to risk dying from the war."

"This is not possible!" Bingbo Silin raised his voice. "The Qin man got 30,000 young and middle-aged men who hated the country to the core. If everyone still fought in such a half-hearted manner, it would give Qin man time to restore his military strength. In the end, we might have to lose this war or even return to Mulu."

"So I personally led the troops and set a deadline for the capture of Jieshan City for ten days, which is also to urge the troops to regain their combat status, so that they can return to their best state when attacking Hualuzhou and occupy Hualuzhou as quickly as possible."

"We understand the Governor's painstaking efforts." Saleh and Houmede immediately said in unison.

"But, Governor, is ten days too short?" Saleh said separately: "Jieshan City is a big city with tall and thick walls. The young and strong people who can mobilize in the city can reach more than 10,000 people, which is not easy to fight."

"Even if all the generals and soldiers do their best, they may not be able to capture the city within ten days."

"If everyone can do their best to attack the city, they will definitely be able to seize the city of Jieshan within ten days!" Bingbo Silin said confidently: "Ziyad, you cannot only consider the city walls and the number of soldiers, but also the psychology of the soldiers guarding the city."

"Jieshan City is an isolated city, far away from any city controlled by the Qin people. Our army surrounded this city without any support from the Qin army. The soldiers in the city can easily feel abandoned."

"Once the soldiers feel this way in their hearts, and watch our soldiers siege violently, they will likely surrender after reaching a certain critical point, or give up resistance."

‘The Governor thought so, no wonder he had the idea of ​​underestimating the enemy. But,’ Saleh said: “Governor, you can have such hope, but you cannot make a combat plan with this! And there are some guards in the city who were rescued prisoners, and they will definitely not surrender.”

"There are only more than 2,000 prisoners who were rescued, and they do not account for the majority, and they cannot stop others from giving up their resistance. Moreover, even if we do not consider the psychology of Qin's soldiers, with the combat effectiveness of our army, it is enough to seize Jieshan City within ten days." Bingbo Silin said without doubt.

Speaking of this, Saleh could not doubt it anymore. If he continued to doubt it, he would doubt the combat effectiveness of the Dashi army. If it was spread, Saleh would not be able to lead his troops. He could only agree, stand up and get off the boat to prepare for tomorrow's siege.

Houmeide felt that Bingbo Silin's attitude was not appropriate. It was not that he doubted the combat effectiveness of his own army, but that he thought he should listen to his subordinates' suggestions and could not refute this bluntly even if he did not agree. However, he didn't say anything and got off the ship and prepared to prepare.

...

...

"I can see clearly, is it the flag of the Geluo people?" At this time, Governor Niu asked a soldier in Jieshan City.

"Report to the Governor, the army from the north is indeed a flag of the Geluo people. The subordinates participated in the Battle of Jieshan three years ago and saw it with their own eyes. Moreover, according to the people who followed Duan Duwei and Liu Duwei as an envoy of Geluo, the person in charge looks exactly the same as Geluo Yehudun Vica."

The person who spoke was Dimash's fire chief Zhuo Jin army. Although he was not very official, he had rich experience. He had fought many battles and participated in the Battle of Jieshan. When Dunviga led his troops to the city of Jieshan, he immediately noticed the flags that came to the army and reported to his superiors.

"I knew that he would take this opportunity to rebel against Tang Zhuang Dashi. This time, when he defeated Dashiren, he would never spare Gelu!" shouted Governor Niu.

After calming down a little, he said again: "Fortunately, I have long been sure that the people of Gelulu will definitely surrender to the Great Cannibal, so there was no arrangement for soldiers to block the Great Cannibal along the river, and many people were also arranged to garrison the city.

"If I arrange for people to block the river, the Gelulu people suddenly come out from the north, and the soldiers by the river do not have time to hide in the city, and the entire army will be wiped out; if the soldiers are not arranged to garrison the city, the Gelu people suddenly come out, and they can attack the city before we send our troops to the city. Although it may be very small, we must be prepared. I am right."

"Governor, you have a clever idea and did not allow the enemy to successfully attack. But no matter what, the big cannibals have an additional 20,000, which is even more difficult to fight." Zhao Guoyi said in a panic.

"It's so panicked!" Governor Niu calmed down and said, "The people of Geluo are riders. They have never attacked the city, and they are all living in filling trenches. If these 20,000 people are only consuming a little more arrows and rolling wood and stones, so don't worry."

"Even so, there are too many soldiers commanded by the generals of the Great Food." Zhao Guoyi said again.

"Don't worry if you say it, what are you saying!" Governor Niu said with a slight rebuke.

However, he also knew that seeing more and more people outside the city, most people would be involuntarily panic. After thinking about it, he said, "Tomorrow you and I will go to the top of the city to encourage the soldiers guarding the city."

"Remember, be sure to be calm and laugh, and not show any sign of worry or fear, so as to encourage the soldiers. Once something is wrong, it will not only not boost morale, but will have a counterproductive effect." He ordered again.

"Yes, Governor." Zhao Guoyi was very reluctant to go to the city. After all, there were many catapults, and there were still dangers on the city. But Governor Niu said that he would go to the city himself, and he dared not to go? He could only agree.

"That's right." Governor Zhao said with a smile. Just as he was about to talk about the next topic, he suddenly remembered something and turned his head to an old man who was over 50 years old and said, "You will go with us tomorrow to encourage the soldiers."

"After all, you are also a Dayi instructor! According to the booklet sent, Dayi instructor is also responsible for morale-boosting, so you should go to the top of the city."

"Don't worry, the governor, I'm willing to go to the city to the next day." The 50-year-old man agreed immediately.

This person was Li Bai. On the day when Governor Niu received his order to be Governor Jieshan, Li Bai felt that Jieshan City could be defended and flowed down.

Along with the order to appoint Governor Niu as the governor, there was also a booklet on how to establish a system of instructors in Dayi, asking him to establish a instructor in accordance with the booklet.

But Li Gong or Liu Qi were not watching Li Gong or Liu Qi in Jieshan City, and war was about to break out, so Governor Niu didn't understand how to establish it, so he figured out a set of methods himself.

He used the rescued prisoners as instructors? How could this be done? These people were sent to the city to fight, and the instructor of Dayi must be a literati. So he selected the literati in the city, at least the literate people to serve as the instructor of Dayi.

Among the literati in the city, Li Bai is of course the most famous one. Although many people still do not think that he is the same as Li Bai in the Central Plains, others know that they are not as good as him after talking about literature. In addition, Li Bai is older, Governor Niu appointed Li Bai as the highest-level instructor of the city defender.

Besides, Li Bai himself had long wanted to participate in the defense of the city. Governor Niu's appointment was a sleepy pillow for him, so he agreed immediately. This was done.

"Okay, you are willing to go to the top of the city, it's great." Governor Niu patted his shoulder and praised. Li Bai smiled again and didn't say anything else.

Governor Niu gave a few more words to let everyone disperse; everyone hurriedly stood up and saluted and left. But Li Bai deliberately left at the end. After only him, Governor Niu and a few guards, he turned around and asked Governor Niu.

"Governor, I have a question to ask."

"What a problem?"

"Do you really believe that Jieshan City can be defended?" Li Bai asked. Governor Niu's words were full of confidence in defending the city. But Li Bai felt that his confidence seemed not so sufficient.

Hearing this question, Governor Niu raised his head and stared at him for a few glances, and then replied: "You are a smart person, a very smart person; there are no one else at present, so I will tell you the truth: If the great cannibal attacks fiercely at all costs, Jieshan City cannot be defended."
