Chapter 1245 Communication War
Chapter 1243: Communication War
Yang Liulang also knew that Yinshan City did not lack militia, but urgently lacked main elites. However, it was not an easy task to transfer reinforcements from Ningxia City to Yinshan City.
"Even if Governor Wang Meng agreed to send reinforcements, how can he break through the layers of blockades and reach Yinshan? Now Yinshan City is surrounded by Yuan Meng''s sphere of influence."
After hearing Yang Liulang''s question, Li Jing pondered for a moment and replied: "Although Yuan Meng''s siege of Yinshan City is tight, Hetao is a flat land. Yuan Meng cannot set up defenses everywhere. As long as we attract Yuan Meng''s attention, reinforcements will definitely have a chance to break through the blockade and enter Yinshan City."
Yang Liulang pondered for a while and couldn''t help but nodded, then asked again: "But how should we contact Ningxia now?
Why have the pigeons in Yinshan City been used up? Once the pigeons outside approach Yinshan City, they will either be shot down by Yuan Meng''s Sagittarius or be hunted by Yuan Meng''s falcons, and the pigeons will not fly in at all. ”
Since the decisive battle between the Yuan and Mongolian and Jin troops began, in addition to offensive and defensive battles, even the communication war between the two sides has been extremely fierce.
The main communication method between the Jin army counties was to contact through carrier pigeons. In order to close the connection between the Jin army, Temujin ordered Zhebe to form a team of archers, all composed of Yuan Meng''s eagle masters, specifically used to shoot the carrier pigeons of the Jin army.
In addition, Temujin also ordered all troops to shoot arrows whenever they found pigeons, whether they were carrier pigeons or not.
The war for more than two months made it difficult to see a pigeon in the sky of the Hetao Plain. Tens of thousands of pigeons were shot down by Yuan Meng''s eagle''s eagle''s hand, including many of which were mixed with the Jin army''s carrier pigeons.
The archers of Yuan Meng caused great casualties to the Jin army''s pigeons, so that communications between the various armies did not dare to proceed during the day, and they were all changed to the release of pigeons at night.
Even Yuan Meng''s The Legend of the Condor can only shoot pigeons during the day. Once at night, the archer is black and even the best-looking archer will find it difficult to find a small pigeon.
If the Jin army''s contact during the day is blocked, but cannot be blocked at night, it is equivalent to no use.
In this regard, Temujin also thought of another very unique way, which was to release the tame falcon. He let nearly a hundred falcons hover over the city being prepared to attack, and a carrier pigeon came to hunt and kill one, and a hundred came to hunt and kill one hundred.
Yuan Meng''s falcons made Yinshan and Ningxia''s Jin army miserable. Wang Meng and Li Jingdu ordered the archers to shoot the falcons in the sky, but the height of these falcons flying far exceeds the range of most bows and arrows, and even Luo Yi, the best long-bow arrows in the Jin army, could not shoot.
Under the double blow of Temujin''s bow and arrow and falcon, the Jin army''s pigeon team suffered heavy casualties, and now Yinshan City is completely isolated from the outside world. Li Jing and Yang Liulang did not know the situation outside, and Wang Meng and Zhuge Liang did not know the situation in Yinshan City.
“It is indeed the biggest problem to not be able to send the message.”
Li Jing also frowned. After thinking hard for a long time, he didn''t think of any good idea. He said helplessly: "I can only send someone to break out at night to ask for help."
"But our army has just severely damaged Yuan Meng. The 150,000-yuan Meng army has siege the Yinshan City. At this time, even if we break through at night, it may be difficult to succeed." Yang Liulang said worriedly.
"No…"
Li Jing''s eyes were full of wisdom, and after a flash of light, he sneered: "If Temujin came in person, it would be difficult to break through at night, but the current Yuan Meng commander is Murong Chui."
"Is there any difference?" Yang Liulang asked in confusion.
Li Jing glanced at Yang Liulang and explained: "I have carefully studied Murong Chui, who has a strange mind and complex idea, and is deeply aware of the way to protect himself and please the king.
Murong Ke and Murong Chui entered Hetao together. Murong Ke''s performance was extremely dazzling and made extraordinary achievements, while Murong Chui performed mediocrely, and was even forced into danger by Governor Wang Meng several times. That''s why Murong Chui must be eager to make contributions and prove himself to Temujin at this time.
If we see that our army is seeking reinforcements, we may have made every effort to stop it on the surface, but in secret, we may take the initiative to let us pass, and then..."
Yang Liulang''s eyes suddenly lit up and he said hurriedly: "Then ambush our reinforcements?"
"That''s right." Li Jing nodded with a smile and said in his heart: This Yang Liulang is not hopeless, but his comprehension ability is a little poor.
"But how can Murong Chui see that our army is going to ask for help, not attack at night?" Yang Liulang asked again.
Li Jing sighed helplessly when he saw this. He wanted to take back what he said just now, and this man was hopeless.
"Only I, or General Yang Wulang, can personally lead the breakout to show that our army is seeking help."
This time, Yang Liulang didn''t ask why. After all, the situation in Yinshan City is so dangerous, and Yang Liulang is unable to leave as a guard. Only Li Jing and Yang Wulang, two people with heavy weight, can we show that Yinshan City is in danger.
Yang Liulang hesitated again. It was impossible to send Li Jing to ask for help. After all, he could not live without Li Jing, and now Yinshan City cannot live without Li Jing, but he was unwilling to take this risk by his fifth brother.
Just as Yang Liulang was hesitating, Yang Wulang took the initiative to stand up and said, "The last general is willing to break out and ask for reinforcements."
“Fifth brother.”
Yang Liulang opened his mouth, but he could only turn into a sigh and did not say anything to keep him.
Li Jing said seriously: "General Yang Wulang, do you know that all of this is just my inference. If there is a mistake, you may not be able to come back."
Yang Wulang smiled and said, "General Li Jing, do you have confidence in your inference?"
Li Jing didn''t say anything. He believed that he had seen Murong Chui through, so of course he was confident, but things in the world were impermanent, and he couldn''t guarantee that he had calculated correctly.
Seeing that Li Jing didn''t say anything, Yang Wulang said, "Since General Li Jing, you have arrived in Yinshan County, you have not missed anything. Maybe you don''t have absolute confidence either, but I, Yang Wulang, have confidence in you. No matter whether you succeed or fail, I am willing to believe you."
Li Jing was also extremely moved, and opened his mouth and said, "Come back alive."
"Um."
That night, Yang Wulang led five hundred elite cavalry out of the city from the south gate. As soon as he left the city, he was discovered by Yuan Meng''s spies and then reported to Murong Chui.
After Murong Chui finished listening, after pondering for a long time, a glimmer flashed in his eyes and asked quickly: "Are you saying that after Yang Wulang led 500 cavalry out of the city, he did not have any entanglement with our army?"
"Yes, Yang Wulang has led his troops south now, and his intention is unknown. Will the general pursue and siege kill?"
After Murong Chui pondered for a long time, a sneer flashed across the corner of his mouth and said, "Chasing."
"I understand. Now my subordinates will order the front-line troops to immediately dispatch troops to encircle Yang Wulang."
"No, just pursue, not surround and kill. Remember, don''t hurt Yang Wulang."
"This, I promise, I will give an order to order the front-line army to capture Yang Wulang alive..."
"No."
Murong Chui''s mouth raised slightly and said lightly: "Let him go."
"ah?"
