Chapter 127 Shan Xiong's heart is back

After half an hour of battle, Liu Tong ordered his withdrawal from the battle. After counting the casualties, it was found that there were less than fifty casualties. However, since the battlefield was not cleaned up, the results of the battle were not calculated. Liu Tong was not sure that they had caused Wang Renze to reduce his troops by as many as 4,000.

In fact, Liu Tong was scared when he looked back now. He really didn't expect that more than 1,200 people could escape without a single,200 attack on more than 1,500 enemies.

Xunxiang said in great confusion: "Actually, we killed people and set fires, which caused great losses to Wang Renze. Why didn't he send troops to pursue us?"

"Wang Renze doesn't want to chase him. Maybe he is worried that there are ambushes outside, just tempting him to pursue him!" Liu Tong Xiang Xiang said: "It is very likely that Wang Renze did not pursue him because of this consideration. Of course, we set fires everywhere in the Zheng army camp, and their losses are not light. I smelled the smell of burning food in the air. Maybe our brother accidentally bumped into Wang Renze's baggage camp. Wang Renze's army must have been busy putting out the fire, otherwise they would definitely drink the northwest wind!"

Xunxiang said with regret: "It's just a pity that this military merit cannot be calculated. We have a lot of noise to the Zheng army camp."

The Tang army's military merits were also calculated by beheading. Only by actually getting the enemy's heads, they could be considered military merits after being investigated by the record office. However, there were less than 800 heads brought back while the chaos was in the chaos.

Liu Tong frowned, and he turned to Han Dingguo, the reporter room of the Beiwei Army. Han Dingguo looked at Xunxiang with an unkind look on his face. He drew his sword and slashed people. Han Dingguo pondered: "Last night, the chaos was in chaos. All of our Beiwei Army soldiers fought bravely to kill the enemy, with one blocking ten, and beheading a total of one thousand!"

Xunxiang let out a sound from his nose: "Hmph"

Han Dingguo hurriedly changed his words: "Behead more than 1,500!" As he said that, Han Dingguo looked at Liu Tong and said: "Liu Zuo Deputy Chief Commander, there can be no more. We only have more than 1,200 people, attacking more than ten times the enemy. There are less than 50 casualties in his own lives. No matter how many, General Chen will not believe it..."

Liu Tong coughed and said, "Then let's report beheading more than 1,500 levels!"

At this time, Xunxiang spoke: "Deputy Commander Liu Zuo, although we win now, Wang Ren will not give up. The first time we were surprised. They were careless and suffered a big loss. Next, we will definitely strengthen our defense. If we want to win so easily, it will be difficult. What should we do next? Please give me the instructions of Deputy Commander Liu Zuo!"

Liu Tongyi was stunned. What should I do next? When sending troops to this question, Chen Ying had already taught him the "sixteen-character key" of course, in addition to the sixteen-character key of guerrilla warfare, Chen Ying also taught him the six principles and five key points.

The six major principles are to exchange the smallest sacrifice for the greatest victory; the second is to eliminate the enemy but to eliminate the enemy; the third is to dominate the enemy and take the initiative; the fourth is to actively attack and have few defenses; the fifth is to wander around and appear impermanent; the sixth is the more likely it is to succeed behind the enemy, the easier it is to succeed.

The five key points are to act against the enemy's way, and do their best to deceive the enemy's ability to advance, we retreat, we gather, we disperse, the enemy's big, we avoid the enemy's small, we bully, avoid the real and the empty, and attack the west; do not attempt too much, as long as there is always a small victory; stand on the wings of the enemy, behind the back and the periphery of the circle, and not be attacked by the enemy; all actions must be quick, brave, resolute, hesitation and hesitation are equivalent to death; pay attention to the use of sudden attacks and do not leave the enemy's chance to counterattack. The tactics and tactics taught by Chen Ying were actually the military thoughts of General Li in later generations.

General Li's military thought has a high status among the senior generals of our army and no one surpasses it. Today, we will not analyze General Su's strategic thinking of the large army that planned, and focus on introducing Su Yu's guerrilla warfare ideas. In the long-term warfare period, Su Yu skillfully used the sixteen-character guerrilla warfare techniques summarized by Zhu Mao in the Jinggangshan period (the enemy advances and we retreat, the enemy garrisons and we disturb us, the enemy tired, and we attack, the enemy retreats and we advance), and he created a set of guerrilla tactical ideas, namely "six principles" and "five essentials."

Of course, the last key was changed by Chen Ying. Originally, General Li's fifth key was to pay attention to using a sudden attack on the white and blades. As soon as the bullet sounded, the bayonet would kill the enemy's belly. The main reason for this principle was that his own conditions were too simple at that time. The fool actually knew that no matter how good the bayonet was, it was better to sweep the light and heavy machine guns. When the bullet supply was sufficient, try not to use this key.

How to implement Chen Ying's strategy and tactics? Liu Tong has considered it many times while running all the way, but he used to think that many of the ideas were not mature, and several of them had not been solved.

But at this moment, Liu Tong suddenly lost all these concerns!

Because Chen Ying's method has been proven to be an effective method in actual testing. Then, as long as Chen Ying's strategy is implemented, it will be enough to succeed.

"What should we do next? Of course we have to take the initiative!" Liu Tong smiled and said, "At this time, Wang Renze is less than fifty miles away from Hangu Pass. We have no way to harass Wang Renze anymore. If we don't do it well, Wang Renze will order the defenders of Hangu Pass to give us a front and back attack. At that time, we will be in danger. The next battle will be mainly a tough battle. Our more than a thousand troops will be useless. We will break through the blockade of Hangu Pass and take advantage of the opportunity of the frozen Yellow River to break into the eight passes in Luoyang."

A seed needs rain and sunshine from germination, rooting, and growing to thriving, in addition to the right soil. However, environmental factors are also very important. In fact, Chen Ying's original intention of founding the Beiwei Army was to build a mountain reconnaissance force to avoid the accident of a sudden slump when his army marched in the mountains.

However, what Chen Ying did not expect was that under the command of Liu Tong, the Beiwei Army used the sixteen-character key points of guerrilla warfare and the six tactical principles of General Li and formed the unique tactical techniques of the Beiwei Army. This army became famous in the Battle of Songzhou two years later. The Beiwei Army, which climbed the snowy plateau, became the "ghost army" in the hearts of the Tubo people. The Beiwei Army became a strategic nuclear weapon that made the Tubo people and the Tuguhun people frightened and surrendered.

This is something Chen Yingyuan never expected. Of course, this is a later story, so I won’t mention it for now.

...

"Route, set aside!"

On the north plateau of Hangu Road, about five miles wide, there were more than 2,000 heavy tomahawk battalions of the captured Zheng Jun Wang Renze, who were captured by two regiments, picked out more than 200 strong men who were eight feet tall and could lift 200 kilograms of wooden stakes from the old prisoners of Shan Xiongxin, and mixed them into nine shark regiments, totaling fifty-four teams of the 27th Brigade.

At this time, Chen Ying missed his old acquaintances such as Zhang Huaiwei, Duan Zhigan, Zhang Shigui, Luo Shixin, etc. Chen Ying did not have a particularly familiar general, so he proposed to Li Jiancheng to transfer Luo Shixin to General Modao and take over this elite heavy army. In fact, the most suitable candidate for General Modao in Chen Ying was Kan Ling. However, Kan Ling is not in Chang'an now. Heavy infantry assault must be led by a fierce general. Luo Shixin's bravery is naturally enough. However, in the Central Plains War, if Luo Shixin led the Hook and Scythe Cavalry Legion, he would achieve greater results.

Although it was organized into nine regiments, Modao and equipment were still in Chang'an and could not be delivered for a while. Not only did the Modao Army need to be expanded, Chen Ying's left guard led five Zhechong Mansions to abolish two, and two and a half-remnants. Although there were more than 2,000 troops, they were no longer able to fight. Chen Ying thought about selecting young and strong prisoners to supplement the number of vacant guards and the number of vacant guards to fight against each Zhechong Mansion.

Chen Ying had more than 8,000 prisoners in his hand. In addition to the Modao Army, there were more than 6,000 prisoners. The physical fitness of these prisoners was pretty good. Although some soldiers were thin, they were old, weak, sick and disabled, and there were almost no. Among the six thousand prisoners, in addition to the wounded soldiers, about 4,000 soldiers could be drawn to supplement each guard and lead each Zhechong Mansion. Chen Ying's troops would increase instead of reducing. Once the minor and serious wounded people returned to the camp in the future, Chen Ying's four routes of 18 Zhechong Mansions could be expanded to twenty Shangzhechong Mansions and more than 30,000 troops.

Chen Ying's first step was to do a good job in the psychological work of these surrendered soldiers.

In addition to the ability of the Tang Dynasty to unify the world, this is also related to the equal-field system in the early Li Tang Dynasty. Chen Ying wrote the equal-field system policy of the Tang Dynasty into vernacular Chinese, and then ordered dozens of literate documents to promote this policy in the surrendered army.

"Don't worry, General Chen is kind and will not kill prisoners. Of course, you must be honest and obedient. When the war is over, let you go home!" A clever document introduced to the prisoners in the sky, "As long as you cooperate with General Chen to fight this battle, those who are willing to join the army will join the army, and those who are unwilling to join the army will go home!"

"Go home" is a very beautiful word. However, for these old subordinates of Shan Xiongxin, it is an unattainable wish.

A soldier with a thirty-year-old look on his face said in a vain: "Go home... I have no home!"

The clerk was stunned and then said, "I have to go back even if I don't have a home. Even if my family is broken, I will go back to my hometown. Since the Tang Dynasty sent troops to attack the Central Plains, the Central Plains will be surnamed Li in the future. The Central Plains will be iron-clad and will not be attacked again. His Majesty issued a benevolent government last year. The county of the Central Plains will have a comprehensive tax on land within one year, and the land within three years will be reduced by half. After returning to my hometown, the government will compile the household registration and the land within one year. Ding will give land according to 80 acres of land. You can renovate the barren acres of land. As long as you pass this year, your life will be better."

Another veteran rolled his eyes and said, "We need seeds to farm and oxen to farm. We big-headed soldiers have cleaner pockets than faces and don't have a single big son. How can we farm?"

The veteran resonated with everyone, and the captive soldiers nodded and agreed.

The clerk said again: "Oh, you guys are still so stupid. You can borrow money from the Tang Dynasty Tongli Money House!"

“Borrow?”

The honest soldier looked sad and angry: "I would rather die than go to the money house to borrow money."

As he spoke, the veteran, who was about 30 years old, actually covered his face and choked up. Amid the choking, he talked about his misfortune. He was from Qi County, Qingzhou. His family was from a good place at that time, with fields, land and two plowing oxen.

As the saying goes, people have good fortune and bad luck, and there are unexpected events. In the eleventh year of Daye, his father was seriously ill. In order to treat his father, he first sold the cow. Later, his father's condition worsened. In desperation, he borrowed thirteen guan and five hundred guan from the bank. However, throughout the year, the profit increased rapidly and it actually increased to more than 230 guan. In order to repay the loan, he sold his land at a low price, and later sold his old house. His wife was also angry and ran back to his parents' home.

Later, my father left. He was forced to destroy his family by usury. In desperation, he became the Wagang Army. Then several soldiers who had suffered from usury started to curse.

Wenshu said: "You don't understand this, right? Our Tang Dynasty Tongli Money Bank is different from other money banks. You have to borrow ten guan from other money banks. They dare to collect you one hundred guan or even more in a year. However, the interest rate of this Tang Dynasty Tongli Money Bank is dead. If you borrow ten guan, you will repay the 12 guan in a year. There is no need to pay the extra son!"

"There are such good things?"

“Of course!

"Look at you, you are young and have good hands and feet. As long as you are willing to put your strength into it, take advantage of this year's tax exemption and overcome difficulties. After three and a half years of tax, you can earn your family and then ask for a wife. Will your family be rebuilt? At that time, our ancestors will also smile in the underworld."

Chen Ying's money shop was established, so Chen Ying took advantage of this opportunity to promote his money shop. Of course, at this time, in fact, Chen Ying was slowly promoting money shop. At least with his command of the left and right Weishou and the left and right Si Yusu, Chen Ying had already started to promote money shops with his personal credit.

After the seizure on the battlefield was divided into money, Chen Ying gave the soldiers some money tickets with varying denominations and asked them to go to Chang'an City to exchange coins of the same value. Since Chen Ying was a guarantee, this action was not boycotted by the soldiers of the entire army, but was carried out in sequence.

...

The news of Chen Ying's propaganda against the captive soldiers naturally reached Shan Xiongxin's ears. Shan Xiongxin was stunned when he heard it. He divided the land at 80 acres, exempted from taxes in one year, and had three years of tax cuts? There was also 20% of the low-interest loan. Although it was just a few short words, Shan Xiongxin saw another world.

Li Tang actually gave such a policy, the secretary said. It was really possible to build a new home in three to five years.

"Is this the benevolent king? Is this the benevolent government?"

The so-called benevolent monarch and the so-called benevolent government. Shan Xiongxin vaguely remembered that his father said when he was a child that Emperor Wen Yang Jian was such a person. Unfortunately, he had never seen that good time. Since he became sensible, the court has been collecting taxes and taxes, and there has never been any tax exemption.

Suddenly, Shan Xiongxin seemed to have gained inexplicable power and shouted in a stern manner: "Come, come, we ask to see General Chen!"
