Chapter 422 The Golden Kingdom without me as the emperor is not worthy of my pity!

From Wanyan Benjian's point of view, the Restoration Army may not be stable inside, but the Restoration Army has been winning battles.

Winning battles all the time can increase the prestige of the leader, and when the prestige of the leader increases, it can deter Xiaoxiao and stabilize the interior.

Therefore, the interior of the Restoration Army is still stable for the time being, as long as that Su Yonglin is still alive.

Wan Yanliang is different.

He has been defeated and defeated again and again. He finally won a victory on the Khitan issue to save a little face, but he was immediately slapped in the face by the Restoration Army, letting everyone know that his emperor was still a crisis-ridden emperor.

Under such circumstances, if he and Su Yonglin were compared in terms of strategic determination, would he be able to stabilize?
At that time, I don't know who blew up first.

On this point, Wen Dunsizhong was indeed ignorant. He didn't put himself in Wanyanliang's shoes. No wonder Wanyanliang was so angry. Thinking about it from another perspective, Wanyan Benjian felt that he would be angry too.

So Wanyan immediately understood that Wanyan Liang would never accept any compromising defensive policies. He would definitely choose to take the initiative to restore his decline, and he would definitely seek military victory to consolidate his political situation. power.

Even at the risk of dragging the Jin Kingdom into the quagmire of war, and even into the abyss of war.

So don't say anything, it's just a road, go south.

Or simply replace the emperor.

Change the emperor?
Wanyan Benjian admitted that he did not have the courage, nor the strength, nor the will.

He is old, and he wants to be more stable, not tossing.

He can only go with the flow, see where this road will lead, try his best to save his life, and then save what he can save, and do something for the country that Wanyan Aguda established.

It was the last thing he did in return for Wanyan Aguda's kindness to him.

At this point, if Wanyanliang didn't go all out and go south to find the main force of the Restoration Army, and if he didn't cross the Hebei buffer zone as soon as possible to find Su Yonglin in the middle of the gate, the longer the delay, the more likely the Jin Army would fail, and the more dangerous he would be. .

He will die.

This is the end, there is no other way.

Of course Wanyanliang understood how risky this strategy was, and he also understood, but he had no choice, he had to win the battle and go back.

Although it is very risky, although it is very possible to bury all the main forces of the Jin Kingdom here, but...

I'm no longer the emperor, I'm going to die, what else do I need to think about for the Jin Kingdom!

Only if I am alive, and only if I am still the emperor, will I think about Jin Guo!

The Golden Kingdom without me as emperor is not worthy of my pity!

I want to be the emperor, and then the Jin Kingdom has the value of existence!
Otherwise... just give me a burial!I will never let those who want my life succeed!
Wanyan Liang gave his order with red eyes.

Go south!

Go south at all costs!

Wanyanliang's will is unshakable.

He was going to get out of Hejian City, a fortified city that could not be attacked no matter what, leaving behind a small number of troops pretending to be surrounded, so as to deter the defenders in the city.

The two armies merged into one and began to execute new tactics.

All the way to the south, all the way to siege the city, give full play to the strength of the Jin Army, create a life channel for the main cavalry troops to go south, and based on this, find the main field troops of the Restoration Army to fight decisively and strive for victory.

Then he ordered Heshi Lie Liangbi again, and asked him to sweep away all the rural fortresses around Boye City, as many people as he could arrest.

After he arrived at Boye, let the army kill all these people in front of the Boye defenders, and then pile the heads of these people to build a temple to deter the Boye defenders and force them to surrender.

In Wanyan Benjian's view, this was Wanyan Liang's last attack on Boye City, that is, a strategy to attack the heart.

He thought that the previous failed attack made Wanyanliang stop trying to use such a strategy, but he didn't expect Wanyanliang to still not give up.

"Your Majesty, such a strategy may not work. Hejian City didn't work before. If you continue, it will only increase the morale of the thieves in the city."

"Try it, if you can, of course, if you can't... then it's purely a vent, not only for our anger, but also for the soldiers of the army to vent their anger. They have held it back for too long."

Wanyan Benjian immediately understood what Wanyanliang meant, so he stopped trying to dissuade Wanyanliang.

When this order was passed to Heshi Lie Liangbi, He Shi Lie Liangbi was surprised.

He immediately replied to Wan Yan Liang, saying that it was impossible to do so.

Doing so will greatly affect the attitude of the Hebei people towards the Jin Kingdom, greatly affect the defenders of other cities they will face in the future, and greatly affect the Jin Kingdom's re-rule of Hebei after the war.

Jingguan can make people temporarily fearful, but it cannot make people accept the rule convincingly, which is more harmful than beneficial to Jin Guo.

He asked Wanyan Liang to take back his life.

Wanyanliang received a letter of persuasion from Heshi Lie Liangbi on the way to Boye, and he was furious. He immediately sent people around him to denounce He Shi Lie Liangbi and asked him to do things immediately.

What Wan Yanliang meant was that Boye City’s relentless defense brought more than 3000 losses to the Jin Army, hindered the Jin Army for a month, and then just gave up, stopped fighting, and left in despair?
What's the difference between that and defeat?
We are the attackers!
We will continue to attack!

We didn't lose!
This is not a massacre, this is a declaration of war!

What Wanyan Liang said was indeed true.

Whether it was Hejian or Boye, the Jin army's attack failed and failed to conquer, and now they have to implement the strategy of going south and cannot continue to attack the city. In everyone's opinion, this is a failure.

Morale would take a heavy hit, and money would be of little use, only increasing the soldier's hope of survival.

In order to maintain morale, something must be done to motivate the military, such as a hearty one-sided massacre.

Heshi Lie Liangbi was reprimanded by people around Wanyan Liang, and he was very worried when he learned that the emperor was determined, so he talked to his subordinates about it.

"Boyecheng's whole heart is not something that Jingguan can shake, but it may further anger them. It's really hard to say what obstacles will be encountered in the future."

Yi Licheng and other subordinates were speechless.

After sieging the city many times, they also know how tough Boye City is. This approach will undoubtedly stimulate them further.

Heshi Lie Liangbi wanted to make one last effort.

So he ordered the army to attack from all directions, attacked the rural fort, and plundered the people according to Wanyanliang's request to collect food, grass, and supplies, while he personally rushed to meet Wanyanliang, who had not yet arrived at Boye.

After seeing Wanyanliang, Heshi Lieliangbi complained bitterly about the drawbacks of this matter and asked Wanyanliang to change his decision.

Wanyan Liang was unexpectedly not angry.

After He Shi Lie Liang Bi finished speaking, he sighed deeply, and told He Shi Lie Liang Bi the reasons why he and Wanyan Ben had talked.

"The soldiers have not been able to break through for a long time, they have encountered great setbacks, and their morale has been greatly damaged. If they do not make corrections, they will not even think about fighting in the next battle. The capture of Wubao and the robbers can boost morale and let the soldiers know that the Kingdom of Great Gold is still strong. , remain on the offensive."

After saying this, Wanyanliang asked again, "If you can't do this, do you think this battle can still be fought?"

He Shi Lie Liangbi almost didn't say the words "then don't withdraw the troops".

But he held back.

He knew that saying such words in front of Wanyanliang was undoubtedly a eulogy for himself. He still wanted to live, and he didn't want to die.

"Your Majesty's words have not been considered by this minister."

"Then start thinking now."

Wanyan Liang sighed: "Morale is the most important thing, nothing is more important than morale, do you understand?"

He Shi Lie Liang Bi was speechless.

The Jin army attacked the surrounding forts in the countryside. All of these forts were guarded, and all of them had simple earth walls or wooden fences. They had a certain degree of defense. enough.

But these men apparently did not realize that they were facing an organized regular army this time.

The regular army has taken action, and they still want to seek benefits?
Within a few days, many Dock Forts in the surrounding area were breached, and many surrendered voluntarily. The Jin Army continued to win the Dock Fort Breaking Battle. With one victory after another, the Jin Army was extremely low. morale has miraculously improved.
