Chapter 293: If you want to copy my back road, there is no way
"How do you do the opposite?" Yuan Shao asked. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Tian Feng said unhurriedly: "The narrow terrain of Guandu is not conducive to the development of our army's large corps, and the potters built a barrier there and put on a posture of refusal, obviously trying to take advantage of the favorable terrain to break the strength advantage of our army." ”
After a pause, Tian Feng pointed to the east, "Then we will go the other way, divide tens of thousands of troops to attack Suiyang, copy its flank, bypass his Guandu defense line, and take Xudu from the flank." ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone's expressions were shocked, and Yuan Shao's eyes lit up, as if he saw a new direction.
"There are not many soldiers and horses of the pottery thieves, and at this moment they must have all gathered in Guandu, Suiyang and other flanks and counties, there will not be many soldiers, we only need to divide tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, and we will definitely attack everything, which just gives full play to the advantages of our many soldiers, I don't know what the lord thinks."
Yuan Shao pondered for a moment, patted the case, and said happily: "Yuan Hao's plan is very good, since our army has many soldiers, how can we not give full play to our advantages, I will divide 30,000 soldiers and horses, go to capture Suiyang, and copy the flank of Xudu." ”
As soon as the words fell, Feng Ji hurriedly glanced at Yan Liang and the others, suggesting that they ask for war and hold the soldiers and horses in their hands.
Yan Liangwen knew what was ugly, and he went out of the class to fight, wanting to make up for his mistakes.
At this time, Xu You also glanced at Yuan Tan.
Yuan Tan hurriedly went out of the class and said: "Father, although the second general Yan Wen is my Hebei general, but the two of them have been defeated twice, their prestige has been damaged, and it is not suitable to lead the troops for the time being. ”
His words, the ironic Yan Liang and Wen Chou who turned around the corner lost, and they had no ability to win the battle.
Yuan Shao was silent, obviously Yan Liang and Wen Chou were a little disappointed, and 30,000 soldiers and horses was not a small number, so it seemed more reassuring to let his eldest son lead the troops.
Just when he hesitated, Liu Bei, who had been silent, suddenly stood up and arched his hand: "Since Bei defected to Yuan Gong, he has worked hard, and he is really ashamed. I want to prepare for the pastor of Yuzhou, and I am quite familiar with the terrain around Suiyang, if Yuan Gong trusts, I am willing to assist the eldest prince to take Suiyang. ”
Yuan Shao's spirit suddenly perked up, he trusted Yuan Tan, but he was worried that his ability was insufficient, and now Liu Bei took the initiative to stand up and be willing to assist, which naturally reassured him a lot.
Yuan Shao laughed and said happily: "Okay, Tan'er, I will give you 30,000 elite soldiers, and Xuande will go south with you to copy the pottery thief's flank." ”
After waiting for a long time, Yuan Tan finally got the military power again, and had the opportunity to take revenge on the potters and show his father his ability, and he was ecstatic in his heart.
Although ecstatic, Yuan Tan still maintained a little calm, and said: "Thank you for your father's trust, my son will live up to my father's expectations." However, for fear that the pottery thief would ride lightly to save Suiyang, the son asked his father to transfer Juyi's first crossbowman to his son. ”
Ascending the crossbowmen first, specializing in restraining the cavalry, although Yuan Tan was eager to take revenge on the potters, he still did not dare to underestimate the strength of the potters.
Yuan Shao was not stingy and readily agreed.
At that moment, Yuan Tan took the order and left, leading an army of 30,000, together with the three brothers Ju Yi and Liu Guanzhang, bypassing Guandu and going straight to Suiyang.
Seeing his son leave suddenly, Yuan Shao looked at the south from afar, and the sneer was full of color, and he muttered in his mouth: "Potter, I am now attacking your shortcomings with my own strengths, I see if you still have three heads and six arms to deal with." ”
……
Guandu.
The barracks are continuous, and the flags are like waves.
The main army of 40,000 potters, with the main camp of Guandu as the center, built an arc-shaped defense line that stretched for several miles, and even seven battalions, and dug long trenches between each battalion to stop the gallop of Yuan's cavalry, and at the same time formed a horn trend with each other.
Everything was as expected by the pottery merchants, the previous defeat and the loss of 7,000 soldiers and horses did not stop Yuan Shao's footsteps to the south.
Yuan Shao, who arrived in Yangwu City, continued to lead more than 100,000 troops, marched southward, and approached Guandu Xiazhai, forming a trend of coercion and confrontation.
Nearly 200,000 troops on both sides formed a confrontation in a narrow area less than 10 miles wide.
Yuan Shao's army was finished, but it did not launch a large-scale attack for five consecutive days, which made the pottery merchant feel a little uneasy.
At night, the Chinese army is in a big tent.
It was late at night, and under the flickering candlelight, the potter was still staring at the map, pondering Yuan Shao's map.
"Husband, don't you rest so late, why don't you let the concubine serve you and go to bed." A seductive soft voice came from behind him, and then a pair of soft and boneless hands grabbed his waist from behind.
The potter didn't have to look back, and he knew that it was Lu Pheasant behind him.
He turned around, but saw Lu Pheasant's beautiful face, full of affection, charming eyes like silk, a spring rippling fox attitude, and did not hide her seduction.
Obviously, on the night of the cave room, the potter's abnormal attitude made her unwilling, and at this time she wanted to use the art of seduction to lure the potter to complete the ceremony of Zhou Gong with her.
Looking at that charming face, Tao Shang's heart fluttered, but he took a deep breath, forcibly suppressed the turbulent evil thoughts, and said with a faint smile: "Madame should sleep first, my husband is still having a headache for military affairs, how can I sleep." ”
With that, the potter turned around again and continued to look at the map.
"What is the husband's headache, maybe the concubine can share the worries of the husband." Lu Pheasant took the potter's hand, leaned against him, and looked at the map with a smile.
"Yuan Shao's army has advanced to Guandu, and it stands to reason that he should attack my camp frantically, but he has not moved for five days, this is not like Yuan Shao's style." The potter gestured to the map.
Lu Pheasant stared at the map, his watery eyes closed slightly, and his eyebrows frowned, as if he was thinking about something.
After a moment, she slowly opened her eyes again, and walked to the map, her eyes scanning the map carefully, as if she had thought of something.
The potter could see that she must have sensed something.
"Lu Pheasant is extremely smart, and she has repeatedly given me advice in the first few times, maybe she has seen something ...... this time" The potter's eyes lit up, and he didn't bother.
After a while, Lu Pheasant's thin lips squirmed slightly, and a knowing smile bloomed on his pretty face, "Husband, if the concubine is not wrong, I'm afraid that the reason why Yuan Shao didn't move was because he had secretly divided his troops and horses to attack Suiyang, and wanted to copy my Xu Du from the side." ”
Divide the troops in Suiyang and plagiarize Xu Du!
The pottery merchant's body was shocked, and his nerves immediately became alert, and his eyes swept in the direction of Suiyang on the map.
Suiyang is the fief of the pottery merchants, for the Liang State to govern, once the Liang State is lost, Yuan Shao to the east can take Xuzhou, to the south can attack Runan, to the west can capture the Chen State, from the flank and rear direction to attack Xudu.
If Yuan Shao's intentions succeeded, the Guandu Defense Line, which he had painstakingly managed, would become a Maginot Line and lose any meaning.
In history, Yuan Shao attacked Cao Cao and did not dare to divide his troops, it is estimated that it was because Cao Cao's strength was not weak, and Yuan Shao did not dare to divide his troops.
Now Yuan Shao's strength is stronger than Yuan Shao in history, and the strength of pottery merchants is weaker than Cao Cao in history.
Not possibly, it should be certain.
"Madame, you have done a great job!" The potter was pleasantly surprised, and he didn't care about Jing Ke on his side, hugging Lu Pheasant's face, and smacking her face fiercely.
"Husband......
Lu Pheasant startled him, his face suddenly turned pale, and he turned around in shame, for fear that Jing Ke and other guards would see his shameful appearance.
Jing Ke and the others also blushed, and they all lowered their heads, coughing dryly, smiling secretly, pretending not to see anything.
"Come on, quickly spread Chen Ping and them to discuss matters." The potter immediately commanded.
"No." Jing Ke was busy in response.
"Madam, I'm really sorry for you, the military situation is urgent, I can't accompany you tonight, you go back to your tent to sleep first." The potter stroked her cheek a few times, hugged her ***, and pushed her out of the tent.
Before Lu Pheasant could say a few more words, he was sent out of the tent by the potter.
"I knew that I shouldn't have talked too much, I gave him any ideas, alas, ......" Lu Pheasant shook his head helplessly and smiled bitterly, the "conspiracy" failed to succeed, so he had to reluctantly leave.
After a while, Chen Ping and several important ministers had all arrived, and the potter told everyone about Lu Pheasant's inference.
"I didn't expect that the fifth lady would have such insight." Chen Ping was amazed, nodded and said: "I think that the fifth lady's judgment is very reasonable, and for today's plan, Da Sima should quickly increase his troops in Suiyang." ”
"Although Yuan Shao divides his troops, he will not relax the front line of Guandu, it is estimated that the soldiers who will kill Suiyang are only 30,000 at most, and we only need to send 5,000 elite soldiers, which is enough to hold Suiyang." Huo Quzhi also said.
"Five thousand soldiers and horses, it should be enough." Chen Ping nodded.
A famous general, a top strategist, the two have the same opinion, but the potter has not made a decision.
He stood up and stood with his hands in his hands, staring at the word "Suiyang" on the map with a pair of eagle eyes, flashing deeper thoughts.
Suddenly, his eyes lit up, and he had a realization in his heart.
"How can 5,000 be enough, if you want to send 20,000 elite soldiers, I have to go there myself." The potter sneered.
As soon as these words came out, Chen Ping and Huo Quai, both of them were shocked, and they looked at each other, their eyes full of surprise.
Huo Qubing immediately objected: "Da Sima, Guandu is the main battlefield, Suiyang line, as long as you can hold on, it would be good to send 20,000 soldiers and horses, it is really redundant, besides, there are only 20,000 horses left in the Guandu camp, and when Yuan Shaoruo 100,000 troops attack, it will be powerless." ”
"It makes sense to go to the sick, 20,000 horses is a bit much." Chen Ping nodded, but said, "But Da Sima must have his own reasons for doing this." ”
Or Chen Ping knows the pottery merchant better, knowing that although he has always acted abnormally, he has deep intentions, and now he knows that Guandu is the main battlefield, but he still has to send half of his troops to defend Suiyang, and if something goes wrong, he must have another intention.
"It's simple." The corners of the potter's mouth raised a murderous sneer, "I want to turn Suiyang into the main battlefield and deal another heavy blow to Yuan Shao." ”
