Chapter 348: Deceit (5)

"Jinyang has sent troops......"

At this time, it was the fourteenth year of the great cause, and in June of the first year of Tang Wude, the news that Jinyang sent troops to the north quickly spread to Yanmen, and there was no need to spy at all.

Before the Tang army left Jinyang, Li Yuanji sent people to Fenyang, in order to appease Wang Zhibi and give them confidence, the number of troops may be exaggerated, but who to lead the troops and the route of the march are very clear to Wang Zhibian.

Wang Zhibi immediately sent someone to report to Yanmen urgently.

Chen Xiaoyi got the report, personally came to the Daizhou Marching Governor's Mansion, and reported it to Li Po, who was already "dead".

Then he began to boast, "The art of war is cloudy, the soldier is strategic, and the one who wins first without a battle can be a general, and he is in charge of using soldiers, eclectic, and a famous general in the world, but so, the lower officials are deeply respected." ”

It can be said that it is not easy to be praised so much by a person like Chen Xiaoyi.

Li Po is inevitably a little complacent, but once the war starts, no matter how favorable the situation is, no matter how much others praise him, Li Po will not take the enemy lightly.

He is a soldier who has lived and died several times, and he clearly knows that war is to kill people, and as long as he cares a little, he may be defeated.

Therefore, as long as the war is together, his attention is completely concentrated.

That's what makes him special, he knows exactly what he's doing, he has a clear strategic goal every time, and he never gets distracted.

This time, it was a painstaking effort to deceive the soldiers and horses of Jinyang from the strong city.

As long as one link goes wrong, the previous work is lost.

There must be an element of coincidence and luck in it, because he doesn't know much about the situation on Jinyang's side, so. When making a decision, it is just to do one's best and obey the destiny of heaven.

Now Jinyang really sent troops to the north. In other words, the battle is already half won.

The next half. It is necessary to fight with real knives and guns, and there must be places to take tricks, but in the end, it is the strength that depends on it.

Li Po smiled and asked Chen Xiaoyi to sit down and speak, neither looking too proud nor pretending to be deep.

Chen Xiaoyi looked at the tepid Li Po, and immediately praised it in his heart, if he has the demeanor of a general, in the long run, there will be one more hero in the world.

"There should be thirty or forty thousand soldiers and horses in Jinyang. Li Yuanji, the governor of Bingzhou, personally led the troops, with Zhang Da, the general of the chariot and cavalry, and Shi Doujing, the governor of the prefecture, as the forerunner, and should have arrived in Fenyang first......"

Speaking of this, Chen Xiaoyi was also happy, he had never seen a war like this, and when he talked about the enemy's movements, it was like talking about his own soldiers and horses.

"After that, the Tang army stopped, but it still depends on how the chief manager wants him to go."

In fact, there are two roads, one to the northwest. Take the narrow road to get the town of Loufu Jingle, this road is not so easy to walk, Jingle is close to Fenyang, but surrounded by mountains on three sides. Only the brave will choose this path.

The second one is easy to say, go directly north to Yanmen. There is a spacious gallop road, and there is Fenshui on the side next to it. Don't worry about the lack of water, but the road is much farther.

The news sent by Wang Zhibi said. Li Yuanji, the king of Qi, hasn't figured out which way to go, maybe after arriving in Fenyang, he asked about Yanmen generals like Wang Zhibian, and then Xu is going to see how fast the soldiers and horses are walking.

In fact, this can't blame Li Yuanji for hesitating, nor does he hate Wu and Wu, and he doesn't want to use Yuwenxin's strategy.

It is the strategy formulated by Yu Wenxin, which is based on the fact that Jinyang sent troops a few days later, and when Su Yan entered Yanmen, Jinyang sent troops to Jingle again, attacked its flank, cut off its way back, and then quickly went north to the annoying pass, blocking a passage for the soldiers and horses of Mayi to go south.

Of course, Yuwen Xin's strategy also has loopholes, and Li Yuanji has been discussing with everyone for a long time, so it is impossible not to see this.

Because of the early dispatch of the troops, if the soldiers are annoying, it will make Su Jian alert, there are a lot of cavalry in Daizhou, this is already the consensus of everyone, so the speed of Su Gan's return to the division will also be very fast, whether he can capture Jingle before he returns to the division, no one can be sure.

There is also the north to go upstairs to annoy the pass, the time drags on, whether you can defeat Su Ji and rush to the upstairs before the soldiers and horses of Ma Yi go south, I am not sure.

If Su Ji asked Ma Yi for help and let them converge under Jingle City later, this kind of situation was something that Jinyang did not want to see.

Yanmen Chen Xiaoyi can't come back, Lou Fu and defeat these two people with them? Even if it comes, what should I do if I am annoyed by Lou and the cavalry of Ma Yi, who will first wave my troops east to defeat Chen Xiaoyi in the field battle?

The worries that Yu Wenxin has been talking about are becoming clearer and clearer in front of everyone.

Jinyang has few soldiers, especially few cavalry, and Daizhou soldiers are holding on, if they are not superior in numbers, they will suffer very much.

It is also very uncomfortable to go north to Yanmen, Jinyang is empty, the cavalry is cruising around, if you come to attack Jinyang, you are not afraid, you are afraid that it will reoccupy Fenyang and Fenyang Palace, and cut off the rear road of the army.

Therefore, when Li Yuanji led the Tang army out of Jinyang City, everyone had their own opinions, and they hadn't thought about the route of this march yet.

Well, it's almost improvised.

This is undoubtedly a major taboo in war, because the strategic objectives are not clear, the tactics are not clear, and the consequences of hastily dispatching troops have been fully revealed.

Just like Chen Xiaoyi said, the future movements of the Tang Army depend on how Li Po wants them to move.

Let Su Yan march faster, they are likely to go to Lou to trouble, let Chen Xiaoyi exaggerate his troops, and they are likely to go north to Yanmen.

Li Po and Chen Xiaoyi won't know everything that happened before and after, but the initiative of the war has been won to such an extent that Li Po is a little muttered.

By now, the battle had become very simple, but Li Po still carefully considered it and chose a battlefield.

However, he still smiled and asked Chen Xiaoyi first, "You say, if Li Yuanji is allowed to come to Yanmen City, will he be invited into the city?" ”

Chen Xiaoyi touched his beard, glanced at Li Po with a smile, and said in his heart, does this want to annihilate these tens of thousands of Tang troops without spending a single soldier?

"Don't ask the magistrate about this matter, right? What the Li family looks like, Xia Guan has never seen it. ”

This is cleverly said, which probably means that I have never seen how stupid this son of the Li family is, so I can't say whether he will be a bad person again.

"Besides, the general manager is going to lead the army north to Yunzhong, it's June now, and I have to delay for a while, I'm afraid it's not enough to prepare, and the autumn harvest is coming, how can the soldiers succeed?"

"Then there's the price of food...... All things are troubled, in the opinion of the following officials, this battle advantage is in the quick battle, and Li Yuanji sent troops to Yanmen, Jinyang must be empty, a battle is broken, the situation can go down to Jinyang, Pingyao and other places to pass, the Tang army is coming again, I have Jinyang Jiancheng in hand, even if the governor does not return in the clouds, Daizhou will not worry. ”

Chen Xiaoyi's appetite is not small at all, this is the rhythm of taking advantage of the situation to end Li Yuan's old nest.

Li Po opened his teeth and laughed, patted the table case lightly, and said: "Okay, since this is the case, we can't let others say that we will only conspire and trick, more than forty miles south of Yanmen, the territory is open, let us fight there." ”

"Come on, gather the generals to discuss ......"

"Chen Junshou, send a message to Wang Zhibian, let him lead the Tang army into Yanmen, and then he has to adapt to the situation, and he won't let us surround him together."

Chen Xiaoyi arched his hand slightly, and said with a smile: "Speaking of General Wang, the lower officials feel that the chief manager should also think about it, the Jinyang Wang family has been entrenched in Jinyang for many years, if I really get Jinyang, how should I intersect with this Jindi lord?" ”

Li Po raised his eyebrows and said that this person was far-sighted, or was he joking with him?

Immediately, he thought of the assassination back then, he was stabbed and lay on the bed for many days, and the murderer is still at large, and his perception of the Jinyang Wang family can be imagined.

Of course, Wang Qing, Wang Lu, Wang Zhibi and others under his command, it seems that anyone with the surname Wang has a relationship with the Jinyang Wang family, so that he does have a relatively clear understanding of this Jindi lord.

But what to do if he captured Jinyang, he really didn't think about it, in fact, he just wanted to hurt the Tang army in the direction of Jinyang, so that they didn't dare to move easily.

Even if they ask Jinnan or Chang'an for help, it should be winter by then.

But Chen Xiaoyi never left Jinyang, he thought about it, and suddenly realized that Chen Xiaoyi may not be the only one who thinks so.

If you take Jinyang, you can look at the counties in the southeast of the river, which is the richer boundary of Jin......

Li Po's heart jumped, he really felt a little involuntary at this moment, and the words "king and hegemony" flashed in his mind.

At this time, the war was imminent, he didn't think much about it, but deliberately replied to Chen Xiaoyi, "For that kind of portal, it should be similar to suppressing bandits, right?" It's just a stretch, what? Taishou is afraid that I will wash the Wang family in blood? ”

Chen Xiaoyi was satisfied, and the smile on his face looked like an old fox.

"The chief steward always acts unexpectedly, and the lower officials are not worried about what the chief does, but only that they have annoyed the chief steward and brought disaster to their own family."

Li Po twitched the corners of his mouth, I really want this guy to go and see the doctor, can you go down to a strong city like Jinyang? Talking as if the capture of Jinyang Jiancheng was like searching for something.

While speaking, Li Bi was the first to arrive, followed by Wen Yanbo, and the third to appear was the gatekeeper of the Governor's Mansion, that is, Xue Wanche, the commander of the guards.

Once Li Po goes out, he will be Li Po's leading lieutenant of the Chinese army, and the generals of Youzhou will be headed by Xue Wanche at this time.

Whether people from Youzhou can occupy a place under Li Po depends on the actions of the Xue brothers and the Lu family.

Xue Wanjun didn't leave, the two brothers were very affectionate, Xue Shixiong's coffin stopped in Yunnei, accompanied by the soldiers who died in the battle in Yunnei, it can be seen that most of the two brothers said that Fuling returned to his hometown, which was just a pretext.

Xue Wanjun is now under Li Bi's command and has a position as a training ambassador, in addition to supervising the training of soldiers in various counties, he also has the task of sorting out the military registration of the soldiers in the government, reporting to the governor's office, and running around in the three counties of Daizhou.
