Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The thirty-seventh plan is the hydrophobic plan.  Make appropriate use of the situation of the country or the army to create some false images that are 70% true and 30% false and can almost resemble the real ones, causing the enemy to misjudge, thus entering into our military's design, and ultimately defeating the enemy.  The principle is like dredging a river, making the river deeper and wider according to the characteristics of water flowing to lower places, and introducing the river water into the new river channel. The river water will quickly enter the sea, and it will not flood and cause disasters.  ¡­ Song Jun was a little careless.  With the capture of Qianzhou, tens of thousands of cavalry took the lead in rushing toward the gates of Jinzhou City.  But the main force in the rear had to attack Laizhou and Xizhou of the Liao Kingdom step by step.  There is no doubt this is a great opportunity.  "If this main cavalry force of the Song Dynasty is eaten, the Song Dynasty will seriously lack cavalry. What can the Song army do without cavalry outside the pass?  " Moreover, the Song army mobilized troops and came. Now the two countries have changed their situation. Either the Liao army will die or the Song army will be defeated.  Yelu Longqing quickly gathered all his troops and horses, divided them into three groups, and rushed towards Jinzhou.  There are a lot of troops, and we don¡¯t expect to be able to hide the news, so we can only do it quickly.  Hundreds of thousands of cavalry, even mixed with some men from various tribes, almost reaching more than 200,000, rushed towards Jinzhou from all directions with lightning speed.  The chief general is Ma Zhijie, the deputy general is Li Jixuan, the governor is Qin Han, and the vanguards are Tian Min and Zhang Ning.  The five of them are all brave generals who are the best in their generation.  "However, there are too many enemies, and when the country is destroyed and the family is destroyed, the morale of the three armies is stimulated together, making up for the lack of combat experience and organizational chaos.  What's terrible is that a large force is heading towards Anchang City, and will surround the Song army from the south.  Ma Zhijie has been the enemy for a long time.  Seeing something bad, he ordered an immediate retreat.  Fortunately, these are all cavalry.  Escaped relatively quickly, just as the Liao army opened the encirclement from the south.  The Song army arrived, opened gaps one after another, and fled to the south.  However, under the attack of the two armies, the Song army suffered heavy losses.  Yelu Longqing rode on the horse and shouted: "Chase!" There was nothing wrong with this order. This Song cavalry was killed miserably and they only wanted to escape for their lives.  The good prospect is that with the Liao army chasing all the way, this cavalry may be able to disperse the Song army camp and achieve a great victory. The bad prospect is that the Song cavalry can escape in time.  The Song Army camp was ready.  But that's okay, stop and prepare for the second decisive battle.  Chased all the way, tens of thousands of Song Qi were killed horribly.  Just when the Liao army was about to stage a miracle, countless Song Dynasty infantrymen came out from Wuzhi Mountain and relied on the Liuzhou River to cut the Liao army in half.  This is the hydrophobic meter.  Don¡¯t think that the Song Army can easily take over the Liao Kingdom. There shouldn¡¯t be too many comebacks on the battlefield, such as the Battle of Feishui. What kind of weak soldiers and horses did the Eastern Jin Dynasty have?  The Battle of Chibi relied on Liu Bei's defeated army.  And how do those Jiangnan soldiers from Soochow compare with Cao Cao's army?  It's better inside the pass. In any case, those Han people are close to the Liao Kingdom.  But without the leadership of a figure like Han Derang, it would be difficult for them to be willing to fight desperately for the Liao Kingdom.  However, outside the customs, the time, place and people were favorable.  All are not conducive to the Song army.  If it is not done well, bad results like the Battle of Chibi and the Battle of Feishui will happen again.  So Song Jiu is very careful.  It happened that the Liao Kingdom sent an envoy.  The ministers of the Song Dynasty made two voices.  There is a premise, compared with the Han and Tang Dynasties.  The Song Dynasty was indeed becoming more restrained.  It has nothing to do with Zhao Heng, but is a national policy formulated by Zhao Kuangyin at the beginning of the founding of the country. ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? away does not want to hurt the interests of the people of the Central Plains and make meaningless moves, so the west of the Dadu River and the south of the Jinsha River are waved away.  This policy laid the foundation for the Song Dynasty to become a wealthy dynasty.  ??Including Zhao Kuangyin¡¯s recovery of several countries, he would also rest for a few years before attacking a country.  In this way, the people will not be under much pressure due to the war.  The Liao State also knew about the Song Dynasty's policy, and even the Song Dynasty and Jiu Dynasty could not change it. For example, in Beihetao, the Song Dynasty was actually able to send officers and soldiers to garrison, but it still continues to control it, with no officials going and no soldiers stationed.  But for the four states of Pingluan and Jingying, the Liao Kingdom could also understand that if the Song Dynasty did not get here, then the door would not be closed.  So the envoy went back to report, and everyone believed Wang Qinruo's words, which was the bottom line of the Song Dynasty.  As for what Song Jiu said about Yingzhou in the Tang Dynasty, no one took it seriously.  After getting Pingzhou, repair Yuguan to form a defensive line, and get Xingzhong Mansion. I wonder where to build it. The isolated city is hanging overseas, which is to send snacks to the Liao Kingdom.  This principle is like the former Zhuozhou City. The soldiers of the Song Dynasty were very brave and defended it for more than a year, but in the end it was lost.  Just like Dongyi Prefecture, due to its flat terrain and hanging to the north of Yishui River, the Song Dynasty finally gave up on its own initiative.    So the two voices confused Liao.  Someone also reminded Yelu Longqing not to be careless, including Xiao Xiaoyou, but they were quickly drowned in other chaotic voices.  The most important opinions are: one is to fight to the death with the Song Dynasty and take back Yanyun.  Secondly, we started to build the first line of defense from Yuguan and moved to the prefecture to build the second line of defense to prevent the Song army from going north.  But the biggest opinion is to ask for peace.  He agreed to cede the four states to the Song Dynasty, but he could not become a vassal. Once he became a vassal, he could not rule over the various ethnic groups. The Liao Kingdom was immediately disintegrated and divided, avoiding the sharpness of the Song army. Then he worked diligently and loved the people, prepared for war and trained the army, and imitated Gou Jian's example of lying on fire and tasting courage.  Later, when the Liao Kingdom recovers its strength, Yan Yun will be taken back in one fell swoop.  There are so many sentences?  This is for myself to cede Yan Yun to borrow the steps.  Therefore, opinions can never be unified.  At this moment, Shipu landed from the sea with his troops, and the Song army also launched an attack on the four states.  Some people woke up and realized that they could not do better, but there were still more people who were stubborn and continued to talk about sending envoys to negotiate peace.  This wastes a lot of valuable time.  In fact, there is another chance.  Generally, when armies numbering tens of thousands or more are marching, they will often split up to support each other.  The reason is simple. If you don't divide your troops, you will become dull. Once you are frustrated, you will often be defeated. For example, Fu Jian's army of the former Qin Dynasty in the Battle of Feishui in history, Cao Cao's army in the Battle of Chibi, and the Song Dynasty army in the Battle of Gaoliang River in the Song Dynasty.  , the Liao army when Xiao Yanyan went south to Chanzhou.  Just compare it to history.  If not for various reasons, Zhao Heng would have negotiated peace.  Xiao Yanyan may not have a good harvest. If it weren't for Pan Mei and others at Gaoliang River, they would have stabilized the defeated army.  The Liao army is not strong enough, and the Song army may also be completely destroyed.  But division of troops also has its drawbacks. Generally speaking, if the scope is too narrow, the meaning of division of troops is lost, which is actually the same as no division of troops. If the scope is large, and they cannot cooperate with each other, they are often defeated by the enemy one by one.  A successful example is the Tang Dynasty¡¯s battle against Tuyuhun.  In the early stage, several armies of the Tang Dynasty marched between the large and small Jishi Mountains. By the time of the decisive battle, they had already crossed the Riyue Mountain and the battle started on both sides of Qinghai Lake.  The most successful one was the later Huaihai Campaign. The People's Liberation Army always interspersed, moved, and outflanked the area from Dangshan to Guxian and Xuzhou, maintaining superior force strength, or encircling points for reinforcements.  Either force them to surrender and instigate rebellion, or use superior forces to attack together.  This is the most typical successful example of a large-force battle.  An example of failure is the Yongxi Northern Expedition of the Song Dynasty.  Of course, it may not be suitable for all battles. For example, Xue Rengui and Guo Daifeng also divided their troops during the Battle of Dafeichuan.  And it's not far away.  However, if the two generals are at odds, they will ultimately fail.  However, Chang Yuchun and Xu Da went north, and the two armies were far away.  However, they are each responsible for the war zone, and the requirements for mutual cooperation are not so tight.  So even though we were far apart, we won in the end.  Therefore, water has no permanent shape.  The army is unstable.  But overall, this distance is extremely close.  So Song Jiu paid attention to this distance when he launched several battles.  Although they were far apart in the Battle of Nanlaifeng, it was a war launched separately in different time periods, one stage at a time, and the requirements for mutual cooperation were not strict.  However, it is very dangerous to have an army divided this time.  That is Shipu¡¯s 20,000 Song army.  Seeing the Song army's large-scale action, the Liao Kingdom was all talking. Some people suggested that it would be better to send out heavy troops to attack Shipu's lone army from two directions.  Song Jiu felt very fortunate after the war.  "If the Liao army did that, they might not be able to annihilate Shipu's army, but Shipu's army would definitely suffer heavy losses.  On the contrary, the Liao army will have morale and confidence.  If the loss reaches a certain level, there will be unimaginable consequences in the future.  First of all, it is now June. It is more advantageous for the Song Army to fight with the Liao Army during this season. However, the time until late autumn has also become very short.  Secondly, the Liao army cannot be isolated from Liaodong. If the two routes are connected together, the Liao army can get more reinforcements and have a wider range of activities. It may not win, but it will definitely prolong its resistance time, and it will be late autumn!  When the casualties reach a certain level, remember that the Song Dynasty has obtained all the territory in the pass, including the future Shanhaiguan. It is easy to feel satisfied under the restrained system of the Song Dynasty, and then more people will demand to withdraw their troops.  Under their leadership, even the three armies did not want to fight.  The only option is to retreat at that time, and once you retreat, you may retreat forever.  But fortunately, how can such a miserable man like Yelu Longqing have such a long-term vision?  The Song Dynasty also did something that angered him. Zhao Heng issued an edict to appoint Yelu Longxu as the general marshal of the world's soldiers and horses and the general manager of the march on Youzhou Road.  Don¡¯t take it seriously, this is the value of the living Emperor of Liao, but it is impossible for him to enter military power. He only hasIt's just a false name, just like his King of Liao.  It doesn¡¯t matter, what¡¯s more important is that the Song Dynasty obtained the jade seal of the Liao Kingdom from Yelu Longxu, and asked Yelu Longxu to write an edict in person, declaring that all the states and the people of the Liao Dynasty surrendered to the Song Dynasty.  Although this is unlikely to be recognized by the Liao people, and some may even despise it, some people will still be shaken by it.  It happened that Ma Zhijie went deep into the army alone, so Yelu Longqing sent troops to Jinzhou despite the opposition of many people.  This also fell into the Song Army¡¯s strategy.  This lone army did not advance to gain victory quickly. Song Jiu's troops were so stable that Li Jilong and other generals were a little disappointed. How could they arrange such a light advance plan?  However, the Liao Kingdom did not know.  And then there are the mountains.  Why is the Kunlun Mountains so mythical in China? That is the importance of the Kunlun Mountains. Its importance is not in Qinghai. It is not as tall as the Himalayas, and it is not as beautiful as the Tianshan Mountains. You can look at the area where it extends downwards. The Qinling Mountains, the Funiu Mountains, and the Dabie Mountains divide China into one.  To the north and south, and then looking up, we see Longshan (Liupan Mountain), Loess Plateau, Luliang Mountain, Taihang Mountain, Yanshan Mountain, Nuruerhu Mountain, and Daxinganling Mountains. In the past, Yanshan is the sea, but it continues to go up, Nuruerhu Mountain  , Heishan, Songling, Lushan, Daxinganling. Now Yanshan is still called Yanshan, and Songling is still called Songling. However, the lower part of Yanshan is renamed Lulong Mountain, and Daxinganling is called Jinshan. As for the two major mountain ranges, Nuruerhu Mountain and Heishan Mountain.  It is divided into many mountain names, such as Ma Yu Mountain, Qingshan Mountain and so on. After leaving Qianzhou, there is a hilly area and a mountainous area.  The seemingly lone army penetrated deeply, but before that, all the Liao outposts outside several isolated cities were swept away. The Liao people lost their eyes and ears here, at least unable to obtain detailed intelligence. Then the Song army sent Gao Qiong as the chief general to sneak in.  To the mountainous area around Wuzhi Mountain, the Liao army pursued them desperately. After all, they had just passed Xizhou and were still some distance away from the Song army's camp. In fact, in order to achieve their strategic goals, thousands of cavalry were killed by the Liao army.  This pursuit, even if Li Jing was alive, caused a disconnect between the Hui army and the current Liao army. There happened to be a river here called Liuzhou River, and the early battle was very miserable.  After coming, the Liao army turned around and wanted to attack the Song army from two directions. Gao Qiong ordered his people to quickly destroy the bridge across the Liuzhou River, and then the Song army fought against them from all directions.  There are artillery, and the number of artillery now reaches 2,000. Except for Shipu taking away some, the rest are also used. In addition, many homemade mines and gunpowder bags are buried in the ground, and countless ships rise on the sea.  On the boat, the Song army used trebuchets to hit the shore with heavy fire, and then used the southeast wind to launch rockets. Moreover, there were countless Fulu crossbows with long range and high shooting power, and they watched nearly half of the army struggling on the other side of the river.  Yelu Longqing was heartbroken and ordered the three armies to build a pontoon bridge and rush to the other side. However, no matter what he did, the Liao troops on the south bank were quickly eaten by the Song army. In this battle, a total of Liao troops were killed.  There were more than 40,000 people and more than 30,000 prisoners of war were captured alive. However, the Song army did not cross the Liuzhou River. Instead, they sent Cao Lili as an envoy to the Liao army camp to propose the terms of the Song Dynasty's personal visit to Youzhou.  , destroying your Liao Kingdom is just a matter of time. Your country sent envoys to negotiate peace. Your Majesty cares about the happiness of the people of the two countries, so you also want to negotiate with your country and return the coffin of the Queen Mother to your country. However, you still think that China is the country that was divided during the Five Dynasties.  At this time, the desire is hard to satisfy, and I don¡¯t want to surrender, and I don¡¯t want to return the land in my pass.¡± ¡°Then fight, this is the result of the war, one battle will destroy almost one hundred thousand of your troops.  I wonder how many troops your country can spare to fight our army.  " "As an envoy, I entered your country's camp many times, in Daming Mansion and Chanzhou, to negotiate peace with your Queen Mother. At that time, I came with troops from all directions. Your Queen Mother not only refused to return Yanyun, but instead ignored life and death.  Continue to blackmail me from the ten counties south of Guan, Feihu Pass and Zijin Pass.  "I didn't expect that you would continue to live and die without punishing me."  I'll give you a chance. We want peace and friendship, but for the time being, we don't want your Liao territory, at least we want to restore the territory to the days of Cao Wei.  " A unified dynasty, compared with Cao Wei, is indeed not too much. But where was the northern territory during Cao Wei? It did not include Yunzhong. Of course, even if it did not include it, the Liao Kingdom would not be able to claim it back. This refers to the northeastern territory.  , Changli County (Xingping Prefecture, Liao Kingdom, Chaoyang City), Xuantu County (Shenyang, Shenzhou, Liao Kingdom), Liaodong County (Liaoyang, Tokyo, Liao Kingdom), Lelang County (Pyongyang), Daifang County (Datong Jiangnan, North Korea)  Shore area)  The truth has been explained, but Cao Liang was ambiguous in his words. He once again mentioned that the Song Dynasty only wanted to get within the pass.  Therefore, this gave the Liao monarchs and ministers hope that it would be best to negotiate a peace.  This situation is very similar to that at the end of the Northern Song Dynasty in history. The Jin Kingdom fought and extorted, which made the Northern Song Dynasty monarchs undecided. They even gave five million gold and fifty million taels of silver to the Jin Kingdom.  At that time, one tael of gold fluctuated to thirty or forty yuan, and one tael of silver fluctuated to three yuan, which meant that three to four hundred million cash was extorted at once!  If this money is used to reward soldiers, strengthen city defenses, and make weapons, what will be the result?  There are too many similar examples in history. For example, after the Sino-Japanese War, the Qing government signed the Treaty of Shimonoseki with the Japanese country, compensating the Japanese country with 200 million taels of silver.  If this silver is used to prepare for war, what kind of benign effects will it have?  Don¡¯t talk about history. A declining dynasty cannot see history.  So history has reached this point and made another big joke.  (To be continued)
