Jincheng.
"Military advisor, now the Jurchens have reduced their defenses. The main force has withdrawn to Liaoyang Mansion, and the rest are stuck in the city."
Yuan Lang looked at Li Assistant and asked.
"You don't need to sweep too deeply, just stay in the surrounding area. You see, Yue Fei did a good job. He led his soldiers and horses to continuously clean up, turning those cities into isolated and dead areas!"
Li Zhu said with a smile that the more he thought about Sun Lei's strategy, the more brilliant he became.
Compared with the dull defense of the Great Wall, sending troops outside the pass to mow down the enemy is simply wonderful.
Defense will make the army weak, slow, lose fighting spirit, and become a watchdog that muddles along.
The attack will arouse the ferocity of the army, making the army become ferocious and brutal. They are bloodthirsty wolves and beasts.
"Then I will lead the troops out tomorrow too!"
Yuan Lang said, during this period, Yue Fei led his troops to sweep out, while he was thinking about attacking the city. Now it seems that he was wrong.
"When leading troops out of the city, remember not to be too eager to fight. Go back quickly and be careful of enemy ambush!"
Li Zhu looked at Yuan Lang and reminded that Yue Fei was extraordinary from this point. As soon as Sun Lei said it, Yue Fei could immediately understand the meaning. No wonder he was a famous general.
"yes!"
Yuan Lang clasped his fists and left.
"Jurchens? Let's see how long you can endure it!"
Li Assistant looked at the north and murmured.
…
North of Jincheng.
"Your Majesty, please spare my life!"
A group of villagers dressed as civilians knelt down and begged for mercy from the fierce army in front of them.
"If you spare your life, gather the villagers quickly and follow me back south. Those who don't follow will be killed without mercy!"
Yue Fei hit the spear with a wave of his hand and said coldly.
"Your Majesty, our home..."
The villagers pointed pitifully at the village of thatched houses behind them.
"Life or death!"
Yue Fei didn't talk nonsense. He already pointed the spear in his hand at the tip of the villager's nose. As long as he stabbed the man with the spear, there would be many bloody holes in the face.
Liangshan soldiers have surrounded the village with torches, and the village will be burned to the ground.
The villagers did not dare to resist when they saw the army. So far, the army has only forced them to return south and has not killed anyone. If they really offend the other party, everyone will die.
After a period of confusion, the villagers gathered outside the village carrying large and small bags and leading cattle, sheep and other livestock.
"burn!"
Yue Fei did not hesitate and gave the order, and the soldiers pointed their torches towards the village.
The raging fire quickly engulfed this small village. The villagers at the entrance of the village covered their faces and cried when they saw that their homes that could survive were swallowed up by the fire.
"A general must not be merciful!"
Liu Fa looked at the fire and whispered. During this period, he had followed Yue Fei in the mopping up. His character was to kill decisively. He had done this kind of thing more than once, massacring the city and killing prisoners.
"I know!"
Yue Fei nodded silently. He knew the reason. If he did not move these people away, they would leave them to the Jurchens. When the Jurchens recovered, these people would be their helpers. This is how a strong wall should be used to clear the country.
But Yue Fei always felt like a bully bullying the weak, which made him a little uncomfortable.
"Boy, if you can't stand it, next time I bring my own troops, I will definitely do this kind of thing better than you."
Liu Fa saw that Yue Fei's face was not very good, and smiled and said, Yue Fei is still too young and doesn't know enough about war. Although he looks cruel now, he actually didn't kill anyone. This can be said to be a woman's kindness. .
"If it were the Jurchens, they would definitely chop off those talkative thorns first, then kidnap the young women and use them as camp prostitutes, then slaughter the old, weak, sick and disabled, and organize the young and strong into an army of servants and use them as slaves!"
Liu Fa looked at the villagers who turned back three times and sneered. The cruelty of war lies in the fact that human lives are like insignificant things. This human life refers to it in general, not just to soldiers.
"Stop talking about this here!"
Yue Fei glanced at Liu Fa. Liu Fa was completely different from Zongze and Zhang Shuye. Zongze was a Confucian general, Zhang Shuye was a general from a traditional military family, and Liu Fa was a pure killing general who would slaughter his enemies with his mouth open.
"Boy, you just lack a bit of ruthlessness. Do you know why Leader Sun asked me to follow you during this period of time? I just want you to learn some ruthlessness, otherwise you will not be a match for Jin Wushu."
Liu Fa said with a smile.
"As you have seen during this period, Jin Wushu is very ruthless. Those uninhabited villages are his masterpiece!"
Liu Fa looked at Yue Fei and continued. He also felt that Yue Fei was a talented person, so he was willing to teach him.
"Huh, I'm different from him. If I were the same as him, it wouldn't be me!"
Yue Fei said nonchalantly, he is not the kind of kid who can be coaxed by a few words. He can learn from these old guys, but he will not become anyone.
"You still don't understand what I mean. If you want to defeat these alien races, the easiest way is to be more brutal than them!"
Liu Fa smiled. He was not planning to change Yue Fei. Instead, he told Yue Fei that the battlefield is a place where ferocity is contested. Whoever is more ferocious will have the advantage.
"Hmph, I'm definitely more ruthless than Jin Wushu!"
Yue Fei snorted coldly. He was at odds with Jin Wushu. Jin Wushu wanted to kill him, so he didn't want to kill Jin Wushu.
"Are you more ferocious than him? You have to be more ferocious than all the Jurchens to be able to control them!"
Liu Fa chuckled.
"Report, general, enemy traces were found in the north! They seem to have gone northeast!"
A soldier came on horseback to report.
"Northeast? It should be the soldiers and horses of Xianzhou. It seems that Wanyan Aguda is about to be buried!"
Yue Fei looked to the north and said. During this period, he also heard some news about the Kingdom of Jin. Wanyan Aguda had been transported back to Huanglong Mansion and was going to find a geomantic treasure place for burial among the white mountains and black waters.
"That's not a coincidence. Xianzhou is in a good location. If we capture Xianzhou, we can directly threaten Zhongjing Road."
Liu Fa opened his mouth and said, Xianzhou is located at the junction of Yanyun, Tokyo Road, and Zhongjing Road, which can be regarded as an extremely important strategic location.
"It's useless. It's not like they haven't tested it recently. Although they transferred some of their troops, they still left enough defenders."
Yue Fei shook his head and said, if it was so easy to fight, he would have captured Xianzhou long ago.
"Have you never thought about continuing north? Now that the elite Jurchens have returned to Huanglong Mansion, even if they can't conquer the city, they can still reduce the enemy's strength. Otherwise, when the Jurchens come back in the spring, the war will be difficult to fight."
Liu Fa looked at Yue Fei and said.
"You want to test me? Go deep alone, I'm not that stupid!"
Yue Fei glanced at Liu Fa. These old guys don't know what they are thinking every day. They are always testing them openly or covertly. Isn't that interesting?
Yue Fei returned to Jincheng with a villager.
"Brother Yue Fei, you are finally back. Let me go out for a walk instead!"
Yuan Lang laughed and said when he saw Yue Fei coming back.
"Brother Yuan Lang also wants to go out for a walk? There is nothing around!"
Yue Fei said with a smile, after a period of hard work and clearing the country, there are no villages fifty miles away from Jincheng. If you want to find someone, you have to go a hundred miles away.
