Chapter 7: Oh, please

For Ding Yuan, the grand strategy he gave this time was to defend to the death, and even before the war began, he had already started to transfer people and materials, transfer a large amount of food and other things urgently needed by the Xianbei people to the city, and then pass the city wall to block the Xianbei people.

Probably a common disease of nomads, Xianbei people are better at field warfare than siege, but this is not to say that Xianbei people can't capture cities, after all, although Xianbei people are not good at siege, compared to the current Bingzhou soldiers and horses, Xianbei people are much stronger.

Therefore, even if it is to defend the city, this battle will inevitably be very difficult.

Su Yunqing followed Gao Tai most of the time, and Gao Tai knew very well that Ding Yuan did not throw Su Yunqing to him to be a military marquis, Ding Yuan meant to let Su Yunqing learn from him.

But Su Yunqing couldn't help but ask a question when he looked at Gao Tai's arrangement: "General, are we going to defend the city all the way and not fight the enemy?" I don't see an offensive link in your plan. ”

"Attack? Do you think we can win? ”

Ding Yuan only took charge of the state last year, and his foundation was too shallow and his strength was too weak to fight an offensive war at all.

"But defense alone can't win a war, not even victory, blind defense can't even protect itself."

Su Yunqing didn't have much experience in leading troops to fight, but she remembered a few military stories in later generations.

During World War II, France spent more than ten years and spent a lot of money to build the Maginot Line cast in reinforced concrete, which was almost impossible to break in the eyes of France at that time, but the fact is that the German general Rommel ended the Maginot Line with a very dramatic scene, it is said that the German tankers sat on the tank, waved the small white flag, and cheered all the way like a carnival across the Maginot Line, and the French army was stunned from beginning to end, not understanding what was happening.

Regardless of the truth and drama of this little story, the Maginot Line, built by France at great expense, did not play the role they intended, and it can be said that it is indeed true that Germany buried France in a certain way.

The reason for this was that the French relied too much on and trusted the Maginot Line, believing that the defense could be greater than one qiē and that the Maginot Line was impregnable.

But in fact, there is no impenetrable defense in this world.

Regardless of the development of science and technology in the era, the most primitive principles of war are the same in all eras, just as the Art of War is still a compulsory textbook for the study of military affairs until modern times.

Su Yunqing really has no experience in arranging troops, and if you want to say that fighting a war is not as experienced as Gao Tai, she knows that blind defense cannot win the war.

This is true of France and Germany, and it is also true of the current Pingcheng and Xianbei people, not to mention that today's Pingcheng is not comparable to the Maginot Line made of reinforced concrete.

Thinking about some military stories in later generations, Su Yunqing spread out the map and said to Gao Tai: "Although holding on to the city can make us stalemate with the Xianbei people, one thing that must be seen is that if the Xianbei people don't care about us? ”

When the time comes, they will be trapped in the city by the Xianbei people, cut into small units one by one, and then slowly killed.

Gao Tai had to admit that the question raised by Su Yunqing was very realistic, and if the Xianbei people really did this, then their situation would be very difficult.

After thinking about it, Su Yunqing asked again: "On this basis, what should the Xianbei people do if they wantonly destroy the houses and fields?" ”

If the basis of production is destroyed, then they will be even more sad in the second year, and when the time comes, the Xianbei people don't have to fight too hard this year, just wait for the second year to fight again, and then there will be much resistance in the merger state that has been poor for a year?

Gao Tai didn't speak, he looked at the map in silence for a long time, and finally made a decision.

Their strategy against the enemy needs to be changed!

Even not only him, Ding Yuan also needs to make adjustments.

They still need to defend, and even they are defense-oriented, but that doesn't mean they can't attack.

"Xianbei people also have weaknesses."

Gao Tai had fought against the Xianbei people several times, and he knew this very well.

Of course, the most important thing is that the sandalwood acacia will not come this year, and the son of the sandalwood acacia and Lian Ke are not as terrible as the sandalwood locust, which makes many things possible.

Some methods are just useless in the face of Tanshi Huai, this Xianbei King is indeed extremely resourceful, but if it is someone else, it is not easy to say.

So when the spies came to report that the Xianbei army was approaching Pingcheng and would arrive in a few days, Gao Tai gave the first order to attack.

This attack does not refer to frontal combat, on the contrary, Gao Tai is going to fight the logistics of the Xianbei people this time.

Before this, Gao Tai had asked Su Yunqing: "What do you think is the biggest weakness of the Xianbei people?" ”

Su Yunqing could only shake his head after thinking for a long time, the Xianbei people were strong and strong, and even had more troops than them, as for the weakness of not being good at attacking tough battles, it seemed that it was not so important when the gap between the basic strength of the two sides was too large.

But Gao Tai, who has fought with Xianbei people many times, knows very well where the weaknesses of Xianbei people are, but at this time, what he wants is not to directly announce the answer, but to guide Su Yunqing to find the answer himself.

So he asked the question again: "Why do the Xianbei people always go south in winter?" Not in the spring? Not in the summer? Not in the fall? ”

Su Yunqing thought for a while and replied, "It's not that it can't be done, it's just that there is no need to go south at that time." ”

After sorting out his thoughts, Su Yunqing analyzed: "Xianbei people are still nomadic now, which is also the reason why Tanshi Huai occupies the hometown of the Xiongnu, here is a vast area of water and fertile grass, for them is the best pasture, spring is the time when the grass begins to grow, livestock also need careful care, summer grass is vigorous, and autumn is the time to prepare for winter, only winter, they do not need to graze, but also because they do not plant crops, so in winter days are a little more sad......"

Speaking of this, Su Yunqing realized.

"The Xianbei people went south because of the lack of materials, and the war was fought with materials, and the logistics of the Xianbei people's long-distance attack were inevitably difficult."

So the first thing Gao Tai had to do was to solve the logistics of the Xianbei people.

Although the Xianbei people are powerful, they are calculated and unintentional, and Gao Tai feels that it is not impossible for him to cause some pressure on the other party.

This time to attack the Xianbei army, Gao Tai decided to personally lead the troops, of course, he brought Su Yunqing a little as well.

Xianbei people are not good at tackling tough battles, which actually proves from the side that their defense is actually not good.

In fact, the technical content of this attack is not too high, but it is not easy either.

Night raids have always been the best choice for sneak attacks.

However, it is not difficult to fight a night raid, but it is not easy to fight well.

Gao Tai handed over this task to Su Yunqing.

But Su Yunqing also has conditions: "If I attack, please cooperate with the general." ”

"Oh? How do you want me to cooperate? ”

"I want the general to attack the Xianbei camp head-on."

Gao Tai immediately understood what Su Yunqing wanted to do.

So that night, Su Yunqing led people to lie not far from the Xianbei camp, while Gao Tai made it clear that the formation was in the middle of the night, and he went to find Helian to invite the battle.

And Lian really responded.

Seeing that he and the people left the camp, Su Yunqing did not move, the biggest problem she is facing now is that she doesn't know where the grain and grass of the Xianbei people are stored.

But there is no way around it, they simply don't have that much time to figure out all the information.

After thinking about it, Su Yunqing turned his face to the black shadow who was also ambushed on the other side and said, "Zhao Huzi, is the rocket ready?" ”

"It's good morning, Lao Tzu is waiting to set fire to this group of Xianbei people raised by his mother!"

Su Yunqing didn't care about Zhao Huzi's foul language, none of the people who knew how to read and write in the soldiers these years, don't expect them to speak well.

After thinking about it, Su Yunqing pointed in the direction of Zhao Huzi: "When he went out with the Lian people just now, only a part of the Xianbei people stationed there did not move, obviously they either did not get along with Helian, or they could only be non-combat troops." ”

And while Tanshi Huai is still there, I'm afraid no one dares to get along with Helian.

"Zhao Huzi, you will release arrows over there later, once the fire starts, these Xianbei people will definitely go to rescue their grain and grass, and then the others will take a good look, you will burn them wherever they save!"

Su Yunqing looked around: "The action of releasing the arrow must be fast, the fire is too obvious at night, if our action is not fast, we will become a target in the end." ”

At that time, I am afraid that it will not be them who burn grain and grass, but the Xianbei people who will poke them into a sieve.

"As long as the fire is up, whether it is burning right or not, immediately retreat to meet General Gao."

Then they had to run all the way back to Pingcheng.

Su Yunqing's plan is very good, Zhao Huzi's archery skills are good, basically pointing where to shoot, when Zhao Huzi went out with an arrow, the Xianbei people really began to be busy rescuing grain and grass, and then the overwhelming arrow rain poured down.

However, there are always surprises in the plan.

"I didn't know the Xianbei people reacted so quickly!"

Not only is the reaction fast, but other people's horses are not weak!

Su Yunqing led a group of people under his command to turn around and run wildly.

On the other side, he who was blindly bb with Gao Tai naturally understood that he was fooled when he saw the big camp fire, and he was about to wave his army to attack, but then he was faster, Gao Tai was faster than him, and when he saw that the fire was rising, Gao Tai turned around and ran.

As a result, halfway through, Gao Tai saw Su Yunqing, who was also running wildly.

The two glanced at each other, yes, let's run together!

However, Su Yunqing was about to cry while running.

"The system saves me!! Wangyunqi's satiety is gone!!! ”

the hidden sword! When the satiety is gone, you can't run fast! Σ(°△°|||) ︴

【…… Hehe. 】

Tell you to mute! Now you know you're going to call him?

"You beg me. 】

Su Yunqing: "......"

System, why are you so cheap that people want to hit you! (╯‵□′)╯︵┻━┻
