Chapter 594 Not for nothing

Wannian County fell, Chang'an County fell, and the Liangshan Army had completely surrounded Chang'an City.

With two cities in the east and west as a foothold, Chang'an City is like meat in a bun, and it is about to be at the mercy of others.But at this moment, Liu Fa exerted his strength.The messenger summoned the military commanders, and then invited Li Hui and Dong Zhengfeng. His words were heard by everyone.

——A sneak attack is going to happen!

Dong Zhengfeng and Li Hui were really taken aback, although they don't understand military affairs, they also know that there are at least [-] troops outside.If you want to engage in sneak attacks, don't gnats shake trees and ants shake Mount Tai?
But Liu Fa didn't think so. He was an old man who fought in wars. How could he not know that the more troops and horses there are, the harder it is to command them?
Many people in the Western Army who fought bravely and made great achievements frequently failed to move after they were promoted to the middle level. What is the reason?That's because they don't have any calculations in their minds. It's great to lead a few hundred people, good to lead one to 2000 people, and competent to lead three to 5000 people, but no matter how many people there are, they will be in a hurry. Some people can't sit in a real high position.

This is still the Western Army.

Who is the general of Liangshan Army outside the city?Lu Zhishen also.Leopard Head carried a troop of soldiers and horses to Huanqing Road.And who is the origin of Monk Hua? How come Liu Fa doesn’t know?That was one of the subordinates of the cultivator.

And how could Liu Fa, the little promoted officer, take it seriously?He didn't look down on people for nothing, but he had already contacted some of Lu Zhishen's former colleagues in Zhongshi Zhong. Whether it was the immediate boss of his immediate boss in Zhongshi Zhong or his former colleagues, how could he care about Lu Ti? Xia Na's only memory is his good martial arts and straightforward temper.

No matter how experienced this kind of person is, Liu Fa doesn't think he can be reborn, and he can really dispatch more than [-] cavalry horses like his arm.

Therefore, he is not in a hurry to lose the east and west cities.In this siege, although the longer the city is besieged, the more people will be confused, and the more traitors will be inside.But isn't it that the longer the time outside the city, the more depressed the army's morale will be?

Anyway, there is still a city to rely on in the city, what about the military stronghold outside the city?That must wake up every day.How can it last for a long time?

There are many examples of long-term sieges and broken cities in history. During the Song and Jin Dynasties, the Taiyuan City in official history is an example.However, after being trapped in a fortified city for a long time, there are also countless examples of the exhausted veterans of the final division being defeated by the defenders' sneak attacks.

Everything depends on each other's level.And this Liu Fa obviously has a level.

He had seen clearly the quality of the Liangshan army. Whether it was the main army or the garrison army, they were not weak.If troops were deployed against each other in the wilderness, those under his command would definitely be wiped out.But if it is a sneak attack at night, and under the current situation, there is still a chance.

Although Liang Shanjun seems to have a single composition, it is actually complex.Under the same flag, there are two categories: the regular army and the garrison. The former is divided into the pro-army and the five-army governor's office.The latter is even more complicated, including the Qilu Army, the Central Plains Army, the Northern Hebei Army, and the Hedong Army.

A large army made up of so many people is suddenly attacked, and there is no commander who can command it. It is not an opportunity.For this, he has been preparing for a long time, and now he is waiting for the finishing touches.

In other words, this is a gambling game, the dice have already been shaken, and they are just waiting for the moment to be revealed.

No one wants to be a thousand-year-old tortoise who doesn't fight back after being beaten. Seeing what he said, Li Hui and Dong Zhengfeng did not express any objection. Firstly, Liu Fa had high prestige. Secondly, he was the envoy of Shaanxi Province, and the military and political authority recognized by the imperial court. Commander; thirdly, the number of troops used was not large. Even if it was a defeat, considering the number of Song troops in Chang'an City, it was still bearable.

Liu Fa looked at the generals in the hall again. The leader was Zhang Da, a veteran of the Western Army. He was transferred back to Guanxi after conquering Tian Hu. Behind him were a pair of strong men, Zhang Zhongfu and Zhang Zhongyan, who were Zhang Da's two sons.The three fathers and sons had a deep entanglement with the Liangshan Army. Their uncle Zhang Xian once served under He Guan. He Guan had close contacts with the Zhang brothers when he was in the northwest. Zhang Xian died fighting with Xixia under his command, so He Guan Then he promised his daughter to Zhang Xian's son Zhang Cheng.But what happened later, because of the Liangshan Army, He Guanyimen and Zhang Cheng did not fare well.

Next came Zhang Shen, the envoy of Yifang, then Wu Jie, Guan Shigu, and Li Yanqi who fled back from Fangzhou and Yaozhou, Yao Qing who ran back from the West Road, and Zhao Bin among the tens of thousands of Western troops who returned from Yan'an City. Waiting for more than a dozen generals.

Liu Fa said directly: "This commander plans to attack the camp tonight, who has the guts to go?" After speaking, he sat down behind the commander's case and looked around at the more than 20 generals below.

Wu Jie, Yao Qing, and Guan Shigu stood up almost at the same time and shouted: "Young general is willing to go!"

Later, brothers Zhang Zhongfu, Zhang Zhongyan and Li Yanqi got up immediately and said: "The young general is willing to go!"

The rest of the people were also eager to try. Although the defensive battle was more effective with less effort, they were holding their breath after all.Moreover, these days, the Liangshan army only besieged but did not attack Chang'an City, which invisibly made a group of people think that Chang'an City was sustainable, which made the group of generals quite confident.Liu Fa was also happy when he saw this, and said: "Don't be in a hurry to get credit, I'm the commander-in-chief, and let's talk about the ugliness first. This matter is very important. If anyone rushes to go and mess up the matter, he will come back alive. Can't spare him."

As soon as these words came out, many generals who were eager to try had doubts.But Wu Jie, Yao Qing, and the Zhang brothers still persisted.

In their view, this might be an opportunity to defeat the enemy.

Did Liu Fashi understand what he said?Everyone thinks it's worth a try, otherwise they wouldn't be so eager to try it just now.Now most people are retreating, but they persist.

Liu Fa immediately made a decision, and then asked all irrelevant people to leave, including Li Hui and Dong Zhengfeng.

With the four remaining, Liu Fa did not tell them to quickly select elite soldiers, but told them to hold back for a few days. "To attack Liangshan bandits at night, there must be fire. Now is not a good time to set fire, we have to wait until the day when the strong wind blows."

"Besides, the current situation is not good. I don't know how many people in the city are secretly cooperating with the bandits. Things must be precise and cautious. You just wait for orders." Liu Fa revealed the news at this moment, and it might leak in two days. He would Keep a close eye on the Liangshan Army outside the city.If there is a real change, it can prove that there is someone with ulterior motives who is here today.

And if this kind of news is escaped, the Liangshan bandits will definitely be more vigilant.However, Liu Fa will not take action in the near future. At most, he will only do some harassment at night. When Liangshan's army relaxes again, it will be a great opportunity to make achievements in one fell swoop.

Li Mida had already heard the news the next day, and hastily sent someone to pass the news secretly.After Lu Zhishen received the internal report, he was not surprised. When the news from the Intelligence Department came later, the two certifications could confirm that Liu Fa really intended to attack.

This Lu Zhi is profound and subtle, he has experienced a lot since Lu Qian, and he is not given for nothing...
