Chapter 918: Battle Chang'an (3)

After the cavalry of the former army led by Fei Qian, along the mountain road and Luoshui, there were baggage vehicles guarded by foot soldiers, and these baggage vehicles were actually hard work, not only transporting grain and grass for people to eat and chew horses, but also all kinds of equipment and accessories, and even when necessary, they also needed to take on the heavy responsibility of protection. On some of the baggage trucks, you can still see the traces of various knives and arrows left by the previous war......

Because of the potential development of Fei, Ma Yan and Xu Shu walked relatively relaxed in the back.

A large army, not to mention the battle, just the supply, is unimaginably cumbersome.

But fortunately, on the one hand, Fei Qian's cavalry recruited Hu Qi, and on the other hand, like the Hu people, they also brought some more livestock, so as to reduce the consumption of some grain and grass, otherwise these grain and grass and horse fodder will have to be transported from Diaoyin to the front line, and with the elongation of the battle line, the supply line will become longer and longer, and the consumption of this kind of transfer is simply amazing!

And the area of Beishang County has long been ruined, even if you want to plunder from the surroundings, there is nowhere to go, and all supplies must be transported from the rear. The food materials hoarded in Pingyang a few days ago were immediately transferred to Diaoyin like water. Fortunately, Yang Biao came to visit, whether it was selling license plates or books, he raised some grain and grass materials, otherwise even if Fei Qian wanted to attack south this time, I am afraid that he would not be able to do anything......

Xu Shu re-rolled the bamboo slips of the accounts together, then tied them tightly with hemp rope and put them back into the cloth bag beside him. Although Pingyang has begun to supply paper, but in the march battle, Xu Shu still feels that the bamboo slips are more convenient, one is that the paper is relatively thin and soft after all, and it is difficult to write if there is no table, and the other is that once the paper is up, it is basically difficult to trim, and the materials in the army are reduced and changed almost every day.

Along the way, Xu Shu has been thinking about the problems ahead in addition to sorting out these backup materials.

In Xu Shu's view, this battle ......

If you can't fight, you still don't fight.

Because it's so confusing!

If you add the characters in the Chang'an court, it is the people of the five aspects who are mixed in this area, this is not the biggest problem, the biggest problem is that these five aspects are scattered and have their own subordinates!

The relationship involved in this and the impact of each other's every move will make Xu Shu feel a little headache when he thinks about it, so if Xu Shu takes the idea, he would rather take a safe route and wait and see how the situation changes for a while.

But the problem is that since Fei Qian has decided to enter Chang'an, as a strategist, he naturally has to share his worries for Fei Qian, think more about these things around him, improve them, and help Fei Qian achieve his desired goals as much as possible......

So Xu Shu didn't have much rest in the past two days, even at night, he often spent time alone in the night, and he was busy with various affairs during the day, so now Xu Shu's eyes are like a rabbit, and they are all bloodshot.

Now the situation in this area of Chang'an is like a pool of water that is calm on the surface but actually hides waves, and what we need to do now is to break the balance on the surface of this layer and let everything hidden below move, so that it can be beneficial to swim from it and obtain benefits.

But the question is, how can we better poke this rod?

*****************

Such a question is also something Xun Chen has been considering.

In the face of the information collected at the moment, how to open up this situation at the minimum cost and pull the arrangement of the Xiliang soldiers, not only can not be too sharp, resulting in the focus of the Xiliang soldiers being besieged by regiments, but also can not completely wander on the edge of the battlefield and lose the initiative in operation.

This is an extremely contradictory question.

It's like the Awai City that we're facing right now.

Sucheng, which is a city in the north of Zuo Fengyi, was built on the side of Luoshui, if you continue to travel south, this city must be unavoidable, otherwise it is equivalent to selling your back to the opponent.

If you want to besiege or siege the city, it is the next step.

Siege warfare, first of all, close to the enemy city, and then dig a trench fortification system around the entire city, used to cut off the enemy city and the outside world, the army is stationed in the fortifications, through a long-term siege, force the soldiers in the city to surrender, although Sucheng is not large, but it is still quite difficult to complete such a geotechnical system.

The siege is more flesh and blood grinding plate, it is better not to use it if it can not be used, the key is that if a lot of manpower is lost in the siege process, then how can the next battle be carried out?

"Junhou, it is appropriate to go to Sucheng to check it out......" Xun Chen thought about it, but still felt that he had to go and see the terrain of Sucheng in person before making a decision......

******************

Li Meng and Wang Fang, assigned by Li Wei, have been stationed in Sucheng for several days. When I heard that the general of the Hun Zhonglang in the north was leading the soldier Qinwang, I couldn't help but scold him for being nosy, and at the same time, I inevitably had some apprehension in my heart.

You must know that this Hun Zhonglang will be a figure who recovers Yinshan!

If this is put in the Western Regions, it can be regarded as the number one person, and it can't be said to be similar to Dong Taishi......

If you want to guard against it now, can you prevent it?

In the past two days, many of the scouts heading north have been damaged, and a big battle seems imminent.

"You say, what is this Zhonglang......" Li Meng stood at the head of Sucheng, turned his head to look at Wang Fang beside him, and said, "...... How many soldiers and horses did you bring? ”

“…… Didn't the scout say that there were more than a thousand cavalry? Wang Fang said.

Li Meng pouted: "...... That's the former army! There must be a pawn in the back! Who will take the cavalry to attack the city? How many cavalry troops are concerned about our, we have to face the foot soldiers in the back! ”

Wang Fang nodded, then shook his head again, and said, "Who knows, our scouts can't have wings and fly behind to take a look......"

Li Meng shook his head and sighed: "Below five thousand, there should be no problem for us to defend this city...... If we have 8,000 foot soldiers, we will win, I guess ...... If it's more than 10,000 soldiers, we'll ......"

Wang Fang was silent.

There is no way, Sucheng is just a small county town, and it is located in the pass, the city wall is there, and there are also trenches and drawbridges and other fortifications outside the city, but they are a little simpler, simply put, the strength is not enough, if it is really attacked by a large number of soldiers, it is not easy to carry......

Wang Fang said, "That...... Then you can only wait, you can't ask the general for help before you see the soldiers, right? ”

Li Meng sighed, and suddenly gritted his teeth and said, "While there is still some time, send more people to the surrounding area to cut down trees and make more sassholes!" Other than that...... Tear down all the fucking houses near the city and replenish the Rolling Stones! ”

Wang Fang turned his head to look at it and said, "Logging is not bad, but these houses are ...... It's all yellow mud, and there's an egg ......."

Li Meng said viciously: "I've seen it, the top half is yellow mud, but the bottom is all stones!" Demolished, otherwise where would we go to find the stones for a while? ”

"That'...... It's also ......."
