Chapter 825: The Wind Rises and the Clouds Fly (I)

This time, Qin Hao had already thought about it before the alliance, and it was specifically aimed at Li Shimin's plan.

Using the entire Kwantung Coalition Army as bait, all he wants is to inflict a heavy blow on the Liang Army, which is obviously not cost-effective compared to the expenses and income of buying and selling.

But even so, Qin Hao still resists public opinion, and his handwriting is really not small.

If the commander of the Liang Army was not Li Shimin, Qin Hao might not have designed it like this, but if it was Li Shimin, Qin Hao would definitely not be indifferent, because Li Shimin was not the kind of conservative person.

You must know that at the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, Dou Jiande led the army to invade Luoyang, and Li Shimin led 3,000 Xuanjia troops, so he dared to meet the 100,000 Hebei army, which shows that Li Shimin never lacks adventurous spirit in his bones.

And this time, with tens of thousands of casualties of the army, in exchange for a chance to annihilate the 550,000 army, even if Qin Hao encounters it, he will not let go of this good opportunity, so Qin Hao believes that Li Shimin will definitely send troops.

Qin Hao's guess was not wrong at all, Li Shimin's heart at this time could be said to be extremely entangled.

After being reminded by Yang Guang, Li Shimin also found the problem in this, after all, Qin Hao really shouldn't make such a mistake, so the possibility of luring troops is very certain.

But Ren Li Shimin wanted to break his head, but he still couldn't figure out a little bit, if this was really Qin Hao's calculation, how could Qin Hao prevent it from dodging the fire?

Once this fire burns, it will be difficult to extinguish it, does Qin Hao want to transfer troops and leave the camp in advance?

However, with the recruitment of 500,000 troops, it is impossible to hide from his spies.

If Qin Hao really transferred troops to leave the camp in advance, he would not be able to send them to the door stupidly.

But in addition to transferring the soldiers and horses out of the camp in advance, what other way could Qin Hao avoid this burning company camp?

Could it be that I really thought too much this time? The company camp was just a mistake made by Qin Hao carelessly? Who said that Qin Hao would not make mistakes?

Li Shimin tried to convince himself that Qin Hao was definitely not such an easy opponent to deal with, and there must be some method he didn't know, but he racked his brains and really couldn't figure out the key.

On the premise of not knowing how Qin Hao avoided the fire, let Li Shimin give up this great opportunity to annihilate the Kwantung Coalition Army, how could Li Shimin be willing?

For the next ten days, Li Shimin spent time in a tangle, thinking only one question in his heart, would he take risks or not?

Of course, the entanglement is entangled, and Li Shimin will naturally not forget the strategy of attacking the coalition forces.

There are 50,000 cavalry in the Tiger Prison Pass, such a powerful combat force, of course Li Shimin can't let it go.

Li Shimin sent dozens of small-scale cavalry to attack the allied army's grain routes day and night.

In just ten days, the grain transportation team of the coalition army was attacked by the Xiliang Iron Cavalry more than 20 times, losing nearly 100,000 stone of grain and grass.

Qin Hao had long expected that Li Shimin would do this, although the number of cavalry in his hands was Li Shimin's, it was still not easy to completely solve this problem.

The Liangzhou cavalry only attacked the grain road, and did not fight with the coalition cavalry at all, once the cavalry sent by Qin Hao arrived, the Liangzhou cavalry immediately ran.

The sour jujube is only a hundred miles away from the Tiger Prison Pass, and after the Xiliang Iron Cavalry strikes a blow, it doesn't matter if it hits or not, it directly escapes back to the Tiger Prison Pass, no matter how many times the number of cavalry of the coalition army is several times that of the other party, it can only look at the pass and sigh.

In order not to make the losses even greater, Qin Hao increased the number of the grain guard team to three times, and at the same time increased the patrol of the cavalry, which did not allow Li Shimin to continue to succeed.

Little by little, time passed.

Fifteen days have passed, and Li Shimin and the strategists still have not thought of a specific way for the coalition forces to avoid the fire after the fire broke out.

On the sixteenth day, Li Shimin found that the direction of the wind on the military flag in the tiger prison had changed, and he knew that the gale he needed was coming, but he had not yet made up his mind in his heart.

On the seventeenth day, the west wind gradually became stronger, and there was less and less time left for Li Shimin, because once this gust of wind passed, he couldn't burn even if he wanted to.

On the eighteenth day, after eighteen days of entanglement, Li Shimin finally made up his mind.

If you don't take risks, there is naturally no risk at all, but this is not what Li Shimin wants, what he wants is to defeat Qin Hao to prove himself.

It is indeed possible to take the risk, but if you succeed, you will make an immortal achievement.

Sending troops, even if you know that it is a plan, you still have to send troops, but you must ensure the safety of the Tiger Pass.

"The west wind has risen, and the general has decided to lead the army to the east and burn down the camp of the coalition army."

After Li Shimin's words were finished, not only did he breathe a sigh of relief, but the rest of the generals also breathed a sigh of relief, after all, Li Shimin was not the only one who was entangled during this time.

The opportunity to annihilate the 550,000 army in World War I was impossible for anyone to give up, and now Li Shimin has finally made up his mind, and the big stone in their hearts has also been put down.

Not all the generals in Liangzhou supported the adventure, Xu Rong immediately frowned when he heard what Li Shimin said, and stood up and said in a deep voice: "General, our army only needs to hold the tiger prison for half a year, and after the allied army runs out of food, our army will naturally win, so why take the risk to get out?" ”

As soon as Xu Rong's words came out, he immediately aroused the dissatisfaction of the generals who supported the adventure, and Wu Yunzhao was the first to stand up and said disdainfully: "Xu Rong, your guy's courage is inevitably small." ”

"It's just that such a good opportunity, once you miss it, you will regret it for life."

"yes......"

Although he was condemned by his colleagues, Xu Rong still did not change his face, and said without humility or arrogance: "If the general is determined to send troops, please ensure the safety of the Tiger Prison Pass, and then send troops on the line." ”

Li Shimin's eyes were full of approval, and he said seriously: "General Xu, please rest assured, this general will only lead the cavalry out of the pass this time, and all the 50,000 foot soldiers will be left in the Gongwei Tiger Prison......"

Before Li Shimin's words fell, Hou Junji hurriedly said: "Lord, if you only rely on 50,000 cavalry, I'm afraid it will be difficult for our army to do its best?" ”

Relying only on a fire attack plan, of course, it is impossible to burn all the Kwantung coalition forces to death, after all, the 550,000 coalition troops are not puppets, and they will not stand still and wait to be burned.

Once this fire burns, the coalition forces will definitely flee in all directions, and it would be good if the fire could burn half of the people, and the remaining half of the Kwantung coalition army naturally needed to be solved by the Liang army who went out of the customs by themselves.

After the fire attack, the coalition army must have no fighting spirit, morale is extremely low, and the combat strength is not as good as before, how can it be the opponent of the Liangzhou warriors?

But even so, there are still two or three hundred thousand people in the coalition army, and the 100,000 troops of the Tiger Prison can naturally be easily defeated, but if only 50,000 cavalry are dispatched, although the other side can be defeated, but if you want to annihilate them all, it will be difficult.
