After breaking through the Bauhinia Pass, the Wara army passed through Yizhou, Liangxiang, and Lugou Bridge, and finally drove the army to the suburbs of Beijing, and stationed in Tucheng, which was the 11th day of October in the 14th year of orthodoxy.
At this time, an important military meeting was being held in the Fengtian Hall of the Imperial Palace in the capital, and almost all the high-ranking civil and military officials were present to participate in the discussion.
"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the safest way now is to clear the wilderness with a strong wall, and defend the ...... according to the city" Shi Heng now has a high status in the army, so he has always expressed his opinions positively, "It is now winter (note: it is the lunar calendar), the weather is cold, I believe that in the twentieth day, the army of Warat will retreat due to the decay of momentum." ” "Shi Dudu's strategy is very good!"
When Ningyang Hou Chen Mao heard Shi Heng say this, he immediately agreed, "The Warat people lack firearms and are not good at attacking cities, if we collect troops and confine the nine gates, they will have no choice, and when the time comes, the people will be sleepy and the horses will not be enough, and the army will not bring enough, so they will naturally withdraw." ” Chen Mao and Shi Heng were the highest officials in the Governor's Mansion, and they were known as intellectuals, so after the two of them finished speaking, many civil and military officials couldn't stop nodding their heads: reasonable, reasonable......
Truth be told, not many people are willing to fight the Warats with real weapons, their goal is not to defeat the Warat's army, as long as they can force them away.
But Yu Qian, the secretary of the military department, kept a gloomy face and didn't say a word, just silently watched all this in front of him, until everyone quieted down and looked at him, Yu Qian breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I mean, Wara is coming with a great victory, if our army shows weakness again, it is not a long-term plan, therefore, the army is arrayed outside the nine gates of the capital, and the decisive battle against the city is back!"
” As soon as Yu Qian's words came out, everyone was in an uproar, but given Yu Qian's current prestige, they didn't dare to express their clear objections, and in the end, only Shi Heng asked tentatively, "Yu Shangshu, aren't you doing this to remove our advantages?"
” "Not at all!"
Yu Qian shook his head and said solemnly, "Our advantage is that the city is strong and there are many firearms, we can drive the army outside the city gate, and the soldiers in the city can still defend the city, and at the same time, we can also give full play to the advantages of firearms, and more importantly, we can drive the army outside the city, and we can defeat the arrogance of the Warat people in one fell swoop!"
” "If we just hide in the city, even if we retreat this time, but in time, they will still come to attack, should we continue to show weakness to them like this?"
Yu Qian's analysis made some sense, but there were still some people who were greedy for life and afraid of death whispered: Not everyone has Yu Qian's vision, they are only thinking about how to survive the current crisis.
"Ji Dudu, what do you think?"
Seeing that Ji Ling had been frowning and not saying a word, Yu Qian couldn't help but ask, "You are now in charge of three thousand battalions, and many things will depend on you after the war!"
” "I ......
I just want to ask......"
Ji Ling looked around at the people in the hall, "Closed the city and defended itself, the walls are clear, what should the people outside the city do?"
” As soon as Ji Ling said this, everyone was stunned, and he continued, "Many of them have fathers, husbands, and sons......
All of them died outside the gates, and now we are going to ignore them and let them die under the iron hooves of the alien race?
” "In this way, I will not dare to go out of the capital again in the future, because I am afraid that someone will hold my war horse and look for me......
Looking for someone to ...... me."
After Ji Ling said this, no one would make a sound anymore, let alone speak against him, so Yu Qian couldn't help but glance at Ji Ling with appreciation, and then said firmly, "The army is all out of the nine gates and lined up to meet the enemy!"
” Zhu Qiyu had been listening silently beside him, although he was shocked by Yu Qian's courage and moved by Ji Ling's mind, he couldn't help but ask at this time, "Yu Shangshu, our cavalry strength ......
Slightly weaker than Warat, if you drive the army out of the city for a decisive battle, what are the chances of victory?
” "Your Majesty, rest assured, the minister's army drove out of the city for a decisive battle, not just a moment of bravery, but a careful plan."
"This is a strategy to defend by war, and at the same time, we can rely on the city as a camp, and transfer reinforcements from outside the city to flank the army of Warat inside and outside......"
"In addition, as Ji Dudu said, there are still many people outside the city, we can mobilize them, if we just avoid the city, those people will only have the share of Ren Warat to slaughter, but if we drive the army outside the city, they will naturally take the opportunity to help, after all......
Many of their relatives died at the hands of the Warats. ” When Zhu Qiyu heard Yu Qian say this, his heart settled down, so he nodded and said, "Okay, everything will be arranged according to Shangshu!"
” Although Shi Heng still had doubts about Qian's arrangement, he didn't dare to oppose it, and only reminded in a low voice, "Yu Shangshu, if it is a decisive battle outside the city, you must win the first battle, otherwise the momentum will fall later, and this city will be difficult to defend!"
” "Shi Dudu is right!"
Yu Qian nodded and looked around at everyone in the hall, "Which general is willing to go out of the city to fight for the first time!"
” "Me!"
Ji Ling shouted first, "According to the report of the Sentinel Cavalry, the Warat army intends to line up outside the Xizhi Gate, and I am willing to lead the army out of the city to meet the battle!"
” "Good!
The responsibility of the vanguard will be handed over to the Governor of Jidu!
Yu Qian nodded approvingly at Ji Ling, "In addition, our cavalry strength is insufficient, and firearms cannot fully exert their advantages in the city, so I decided to send one of the Shenji battalions out of the city to ambush and wait for the opportunity to destroy the enemy, does anyone dare to go?"
” This task is also dangerous, so Shi Heng and other generals subconsciously lowered their heads, and at this moment, Zhu Yi suddenly stood up and said, "If Yu Shang Shuken hands over the Shenji Battalion to me, I am willing to go!"
” "Oh?
Cheng Guogong?
Yu Qian glanced at Zhu Yi with some surprise, "This trip is very difficult, you may have to ambush outside the city for a long time......"
"No problem!"
Zhu Yi replied without thinking, "My father......
The army was defeated in Harrier Ridge, although he has died and martyred, but I will never fall into his ambition, and please Yu Shangshu allow me to fight for my father a chance!
” "Good!
It is the will of the Father not to fall!
Yu Qian clapped his hands heavily, his tone was full of sincerity, "Then Chengguo Gong will be in charge of the Shenji Camp and wait for the enemy outside the city!"

” "Yes!"
Zhu Yi clenched his fists and replied loudly.
"The top priority of this battle is the nine gates of the capital, and now the generals are assigned to guard each other, if there is any loss, immediately beheaded!"
After Yu Qian said that, he took out a list from his sleeve and read it aloud......
P.S.
This list is different from the historical ones (it's all about the drama of the novel, so it has to be someone you know, right?).
I hope that readers Haihan!
