Chapter 914: Chaos in Chang'an (9)
In the city of Diaoyin, in the palace, a huge map is placed in the center of the hall. The map was so big that it couldn't even fit on the table, so it could only be put on the ground, and Fei Qian and the others stood around the map, carefully measuring the mountains and rivers in the land of Sanfu.
The land of Sanfu, Guanzhong, the so-called country of the four stops, is carried by the mountains.
The four stops refer to the four important checkpoints around the land of Sanfu, Donghan Valley, West Sanguan, Nanwu Pass, and North Xiao Pass; The mountain is the Qinling Mountains, the Wei River is the Wei River, in this area, a natural plain land, the water network is abundant, and the surrounding mountains are surrounded, it can be said that it is fertile for thousands of miles, and the accumulation is abundant.
In addition, during the Qin Dynasty, the Zhengguo Canal was built and Jingluo was communicated, so that Guanzhong had a large area of irrigated fertile land, which became an area with fertile fields and rich people, and of course also created the foundation for Qin to become the heroic country of the world.
But now Guanzhong is like a mud pond, like a swamp overgrown with aquatic plants on the surface, it looks like there is nothing unusual, but if you step into it, there is a danger of extinction.
Dozens of Fei Qian's personal guards guarded the hall, and Huang Xu stood behind Fei Qian with a knife, standing solemnly and straight, like a small black tower, his body did not move at all.
On the left and right sides of Fei Qian, on one side are Xu Shu and Xun Chen, and on the other side are Ma Yan and Zhao Yun.
At this moment, all eyes are on this huge map.
This is a battle that can only be won, not lost. If you win, it is a great glory, and if you lose, it is a shame that cannot be erased. For all the people present, the pressure is not small, of course, the biggest burden still falls on Fei Qian's shoulders.
Of course, once defeated, the big pot and the small pot are also faced by the superiors, and it is not impossible to shake the pot, but once the superiors start to shake the pot, they will soon harvest a bunch of scattered people's hearts.
Therefore, Chang'an, the most glorious part of this war is certainly in front of you, and the heaviest side is also to be borne by Fei Qian!
How to fight?
Fei Qian calculated, his subordinates can actually be said to be strong, but just like Li Dao Guo Yan and others, there are more places that need to be defended, some are divided in the east, and a little bit are sent to the west, and then they are a little stretched.
The previous results don't say anything, and it doesn't mean that Fei Qian can go straight ahead.
Bai Bojun, to put it bluntly, is just a group of desperate bandits who gathered and then transferred from peasants, as long as they beat off the little courage at the beginning, they basically chased after their butts.
Xianbei people, although they are more than one grade stronger than the Baibo army, but Fei Xian flanked Yu Luo at that time with four or five thousand Hu cavalry to respond, and after three times and twice weakened it, plus the battle is only this part of Yinshan Xianbei, so although the pressure is there, it is not very great.
Now, however, Fei Qian felt like he had nowhere to start.
The history of the Han Dynasty may have been pried by itself, and if you want to let this history really leave the original track and embark on a new channel, you don't know how much effort and sacrifice you have to make to do it.
Chang'an......
Now Chang'an is not chaotic enough, do you have to intervene?
Fei Qian frowned, his eyes kept scanning over this huge map, as if he was standing in the sky and patrolling this piece of land.
Xu Shu used a small stick to point on the map: "...... Tongguan, Wuzhangyuan, this is the case, but our army to the south, will take Sucheng, in the Niyang, before entering Chang'an...... It's just that Zuo Fengyi is a hidden danger after all......"
The march of the army must rely on the city, otherwise not only the logistics will not be guaranteed, but also the danger of being cut off at any time The retreat route may be cut off, so in fact, the offensive routes are not as diverse as imagined in later generations, in fact, sometimes there are only one or two.
Because abandoning the normal route of the march means greater, as well as unknowable, risks.
The route suggested by Xu Shu is also the most secure one, connecting Diaoyin and Chang'an through two nodes, providing transportation routes for the replenishment of the army, grain and grass transportation, etc., but it is not foolproof, the biggest problem is Zuo Fengling on the flank of this route.
From Diaoyin to Chang'an, it is a route slightly deflected to the southwest, so when turning to Chang'an, the flank of Feiqian's army is exposed......
Xun Chen said on the side: "...... If you go too fast, the Xiliang will gather and resist, and you will inevitably follow the same path; If it is a little sluggish, then the Wuzhang Yuan Tong Pass will be broken, and the pass will be fragmented and uncontrollable......"
The current situation is like this, if you want to get all of Guanzhong, then you need to take a huge risk, not only to face the soldiers of Xiliang, but even to guard against knives stabbed from the rear, and if you just do it, then not only will you lose your reputation in righteousness, but you will also leave Guanzhong as a broken mess.
Do you want to take the risk of a possible defeat or even a complete collapse in exchange for a relatively complete Guanzhong region, or wait for Guanzhong to fall apart and decay before reaping the benefits?
If you want the safest way, you only need to spread the cavalry as far as possible in the north and roam around, on the one hand, as a guard, on the other hand, you can also give full play to the advantages of the cavalry, pull back and forth to strike at the enemy's weak areas, and then expand your own advantage, and prepare for the final decisive battle.
But if you really choose this method, it means that Guanzhong will become a huge battlefield for the four-way melee, and even if you take Chang'an City by yourself, what is the use in the face of a Guanzhong that is already sparsely fought? And if Chang'an can't be taken, whether it is controlled by the personnel of the Xiliang series or in the hands of Hongnong Yang, this area will become a hidden danger for itself......
In the past, I had nothing anyway, so it was a big deal to slap my butt and go back to Jingxiang, and I could mix a full meal, but now it is not only a time to struggle to survive, but more importantly, how to stabilize my handicap and let the wheel of history, which has deviated a little, embark on a new path!
Although he can claim that he is just fighting for the Han Dynasty, in fact, Fei Qian knows that he needs to think more far-reaching at this time. If you want to change history, if you want to push this wheel with huge inertia, if you don't have some strength, not enough power and status, it's just a fool's dream.
Everyone's eyes were on Fei Qian, waiting for him to finally make a decision......
