I became the son of Renzong

The skin of the entire city wall has been riddled with holes by scattered artillery... So, the city wall of Dading collapsed.

"Officials, report from the front line of Dading that the city wall beside the west gate of Dading has been bombarded by artillery. Generals please attack the city..."

"Officials, since the city wall has collapsed, it is entirely possible to dispatch soldiers and enter Dading directly..."

"Officials, with the emergence of warplanes, maybe there is no need to continue to implement the original strategy, and we can win Dading in one fell swoop..."

It was not originally planned like this, and no one expected that the official tactics would achieve such an effect.

Originally, they were only going to use the food offensive to lure, the loudspeaker offensive to disrupt the morale of the army, and then the artillery offensive to intimidate.At this time, since the city wall has collapsed, there is no need to care about whether the city gate is blocked from the inside of the city. Every place where the city wall collapses is the place where the army enters the city.

"The city wall collapsed, how many people fell down?"

However, Zhao Xi did not follow the thoughts of the ministers to discuss whether it was a siege, but asked about the number of people who fell...

"Going back to the official's house, according to reports, only two collapsed so far, and nearly 5000 people fell down."

Five thousand?When two city walls collapsed, 5000 people could fall down. Even if Zhao Xi hadn't been on the battlefield in person, he could still imagine the density of the meat shields on the walls of Dading City in Beiliao.

Yelu Hongji really doesn't treat the people as human beings!

"Order the front line to use a loudspeaker to inform the city of Dading that the two sides have ceased fighting, and send engineers and medical soldiers to approach the city wall to rescue those Khitans who fell."

"Official..."

All the ministers were really confused by Zhao Xi's thoughts.

If it is said that he escaped from Dading City, Da Song can accept it, after all, he has already betrayed Beiliao.However, those who fell down because of the collapse of the city wall were all those who had been resisting.

"To regain the lost ground, you must first regain the hearts of the people. Do it, and in the end they will all be my people!"

Zhao Xi was sure that no matter how excited the soldiers on the front line were, as long as his orders came, they would be carried out to the letter.

As for the ministers, they no longer have the courage to object all these years.

Not only the ministers and workers of the Song Dynasty did not understand, but also the people who guarded the city of Beiliao, including the soldiers who supervised the war, could not understand Song's approach.

The problem is, the loudspeaker really shouted like this...

"The two sides ceased fighting and rescued the wounded! God has the virtue of living well. My Song Dynasty officials have strictly ordered that no matter whether it is a battlefield or not, it cannot be at the cost of sacrificing the lives of the people."

"Although the king of your Liao Kingdom doesn't care about his own people, the officials of our Great Song Dynasty do. You don't need to do anything, just don't attack when we rescue those buried... "

At first I thought it was just shouting, but after the shouting was over, Song Guo really sent chariots to approach the city...

Zhao Xi is not so pedantic that he really wants to follow the way of the holy king, and he will not let his soldiers sacrifice in vain for rescue.

Therefore, it is the chariot that moves forward...

"Arrow..."

When Song's chariot entered the shooting range of the Beiliao defenders, there were still people shouting to let them shoot.

"They're saving lives!"

"Who are you saving? They have already fallen to their deaths. The Song people are cunning. They are going to attack the city, so shoot me arrows..."

"They're saving lives!"

"Pfft... Whoever doesn't shoot arrows, this is the fate!"

Killed people, and the soldiers who supervised the war killed people again.

"You can't shoot arrows, I saw my third master and he has been rescued... you can't shoot arrows!"

"court death······"

The whole city was in chaos.The soldiers of the war supervisor who were about to kill people stopped the people who were killing people, and the whole city was in chaos for a while, and many people who pushed and shoved were squeezed out of the city again...

For those who fell, there were always some people close to them at the top of the city, and the war supervisors killed chickens and monkeys, and did not really scare these civilians...

Except for those engineering soldiers and medical soldiers who were busy digging and saving people, the soldiers of the whole Song Dynasty were a little dazed when they saw the chaos in Dading City... How could it be like this?

"Report... The riot at the top of Dading City started from the place where the city wall collapsed, and has spread to the entire top of the city. The people on the top of Dading City and the soldiers who supervised the war broke out..."

This... All the ministers and workers who did not understand the official decision were stunned.

"Don't be surprised. The meal offensive is a temptation to those cannon fodder people. It gradually decreased from the first day to the third day. It's not that the Khitan people were not tempted, but were intimidated by the company."

"And the big trumpet's offensive is to tell those cannon fodder people, including the Beiliao soldiers guarding the city, what kind of king their king is."

"As for the artillery attack, it was not intended to create an opportunity to attack the city, but for this moment... When our medical soldiers treat a person who is related to the city, it will inevitably cause this close person to die. Block the whole arrow-shooting operation."

"As long as one person does this, it will be a lead that will directly ignite the anger that has accumulated in the people defending the city these days, and it will naturally lead to chaos."

"This chaos will not be limited to the top of the city, it may spread to the entire Dading City. Send an order, let the front line enter the city, remember, it is entering the city, not attacking the city!"

The so-called subjugation without fighting, the tactics of officials, is probably the best interpretation.

When the military order was issued, the headquarters of the entire Song Dynasty also began to march to the front line.

Chapter 959

The law of the husband's military use is that the whole country is the top, followed by the destruction of the country; the whole army is the top, and the destruction of the army is the second; Wu followed.

That's why winning a hundred battles is not goodness; defeating the enemy's soldiers without fighting is the goodness of goodness.

Therefore, the upper army attacked the plan, the next was the attack on the cross, the second was the attack on the soldiers, and the second was to attack the city.

The method of siege is a last resort.

This is the words of Sun Tzu's Art of War. Throughout history, there are not many battles that have truly achieved this. But this time, Zhao Xi really showed both Song and Liao what conspiracy is.

From the formulation of the strategy to attack the Liao Dynasty five years ago, to the implementation of the Yelu Yixin rebellion two years ago, until today, the non-combat force broke the Dading Mansion, which was firmly guarded by the King of the Northern Liao Dynasty.

During the whole process, the loss of Song's soldiers was less than [-]%!

The Song army broke Dading, not by attacking the city, but by entering the city... This is also an official order.

Originally, the generals on the front line thought it would be difficult to implement, but in fact~...

When the medical soldiers of the Song Dynasty were treating the collapsed and injured civilians of the Northern Liao Dynasty, the war supervisor on the top of the city of Dadingfu ordered to shoot arrows, which completely detonated the anger of the Khitan people, which led to riots on the top of the city of Dadingfu.

Two years of civil war, lack of supplies, and priority to soldiers have already put the territory of Beiliao in dire straits.

During the war between Song and Liao, the court of the Northern Liao Dynasty once searched for the people's fat and anointment, but the king of the Northern Liao Dynasty recruited the people to be cannon fodder...

This probably shouldn't have aroused the anger of the resigned populace.
