Chapter 227: Northern Battlefield

Sima Li, worthy of being a famous general in Zhongshan, did not need to consume too many troops until he thought that he had not found a way to break the enemy's attack. Because he knows best that if Zhongshan wants to defeat Zhao, it is not possible to distinguish the winner in a single battle. He clearly knew that the victory over Yan Guo in the early stage was purely opportunistic, and the king and the gang could celebrate each other, but he couldn't.

In the face of Zhao's attack, in the face of an equal number of men and horses, he must use the perspective of a weak country to preserve his strength and slowly consume the strong country, which is called exchanging time for space. If Zhao Xing heard such a decision, he would run forward again to say the code.

From this point, it can always be seen that the world's famous generals are the world's famous generals, not covered.

Sima Li arranged for the chariot drawn by the ox to go ahead, then the chariot drawn by the war horse, and finally his 5,000 single horsemen, that is, the cavalry, which were the most elite of his people, ready to counterattack. So under the cover of this layer, he retreated to the left.

Zuoren is the largest pass in the north of Zhongshan Kingdom, and when this city was first established, it had two purposes: one was to defend against the attack of the north, and the other was to serve as a base for attacking the north. Here, there is a reserve of grain and grass that can supply at least three years of war.

When Sima Li retreated to the left people, his heart finally let go, because according to normal theoretical calculations, even if the enemy was 10 times his own, as long as there was enough food and grass, he could resist the attack of the Zhao people.

"At least, I can withstand the Zhao people's attack for a year, and after a year, the enemy should be cut off from food and grass. At that time, there was no need for me to attack, they naturally retreated, and then I pursued the tired division, and I collected Daijun, and I would become the greatest hero of Zhongshan Kingdom. ”

When Sima Li was thinking like this, a gray-faced patrol came over and reported: "General Qiyu, the Zhao people have a team that directly killed Danqiu. ”

Sima Li was shocked and suddenly got up. Because Danqiu and his left people are on a parallel line, blocking the attack of Zhao Guoren, but he knows very clearly that Danqiu is only defended by his own 2,000 soldiers, which is completely useless. If Danqiu falls, it will be equivalent to the opening of the door of Lingshou.

His eyes were fixed on the map, and after looking at it for a long time, Sima Li sat down on the couch, really helpless.

In fact, this is not a conspiracy, but a conspiracy. It is to tell you plainly that I am attacking your weakness, and this weakness, you must defend.

Yes, Sima Li had to divide his troops to defend, because in the entire Zhongshan Kingdom, there were so many troops, and the king allocated so many troops to himself. He gathered almost all the garrison forces in the north of the entire country in his own hands. With the great exploits and pride of the Zhongshan people to defeat the Yan people, they are ready to use the same forces and the Great Wall Pass to block the attack of the Zhao people.

In fact, when I got this task, I was also very relaxed, with the same troops, with the danger of passing, how could I not complete such a simple task?

But Zhao Ren's advanced weapons did catch him off guard, but he was smart and maintained his strength.

But now there is a very terrible situation, when the mouth of the pocket is opened, the contents of the pocket become a plate of loose sand. To put it bluntly, if you never lose the small pass, then the enemy can only confront yourself in front of the small pass, and even if there is not a single soldier behind you, it is safe. As a result, if you lose him, you will open your pocket, and the enemy will be able to disperse on four sides and capture any part of your defense.

At this time, Sima Li realized that due to the lack of his own troops, in order to maintain his strength, you let go of the pocket mouth of the small pass. And now the enemy rushed in, facing a whole wide front, and could touch any of his vital points at will. Now their own line of defense is like a sieve, full of holes.

After careful consideration, Sima Li immediately decided to send 2,000 single horsemen to quickly enter Danqiu, relying on the solidity of the city wall to defend it strictly.

Such a decision is not bad, the two thousand single horses he sent out, according to the later generations, are dragoons, that is, infantry on horseback, as long as they are stationed in Danqiu, they can hold out for at least a month, century

"How many came?" Zhao Hao couldn't believe his ears, and once again confirmed the report that Ye Bu received, and Ye Bu replied solemnly again: "It's not wrong, Second General, it's two thousand." ”

Le Yi said without hesitation: "Five thousand, go and annihilate them on the way." ”

Zhao Hao immediately jumped up: "You wait here, I'll go." ”

Le Yi grabbed him: "If you have something to do, the younger brother will do his job, and the second brother will rest." ”

Zhao Hao walked out, and said to Le Yi: "You are stronger than me militarily, it is more suitable for you to sit here, I still fight." ”

Then he jumped directly on the war horse: "First Brigade and Second Brigade, follow me." Then a crowd of men and horses roared out.

Looking at the back of the second brother, Le Yi could only smile bitterly and shake his head. However, he thinks that he is lucky and happy to have such an older brother.

A lieutenant suggested: "Why don't we take advantage of Danqiu's lack of soldiers and take him down in one go?" ”

Le Yi shook his head without hesitation: "Danqiu is the bait, we lost the bait, how can Sima Li's fish still take the bait?" We just want to let Sima Li not be able to lose, and we can't keep the dilemma, and then like this, one by one, they will be sent to death. ”

The five-body throw that Du Wei admired was really worried about Sima Li.

Two thousand infantry on horseback, under the blow of Zhao Hao's cavalry, armed to the teeth, immediately collapsed, let go of a few messengers, and sent people to send more than 1,000 prisoners and 2,000 war horses to Zhao Xing, Zhao Hao returned to Le Yi's side with a relaxed face. Seeing that Le Yi didn't move, Zhao Hao breathed a sigh of relief: "Encircle the point to send reinforcements, our brother said so, this method is really easy to use, let's wait for Sima Li's next batch of reinforcements so easily." ”

Le Yi thought so: "Brother, this art of war can be written into the art of war, this is definitely a good strategy that has never been seen before or since." ”

The two brothers discussed Zhao Xing's art of war here, but Sima Li was in a dilemma in the Zuoren's army.

As Le Yi said, Sima Li can't eat Danqiu now, and he can't let go. And Zhao Xing's army has already pressed up violently. Now, Sima Li and his soldiers had a headache when they saw Zhao Xing's camel caravan, because there was really no effective way to stop their attack.

Now Sima Li admires Zhao Xing very much, the same 50,000 army, as a result, people dare to divide the troops, and the strike point of the division of troops is very sensitive and difficult.

Wait, the same number of men and horses, he still divides his troops?

At that time, Sima Li smashed his head hard, why was he so stupid. If he dares to divide his troops, there will be fewer troops on the other side, so I will give him the initiative to attack and annihilate this enemy, and everything will be solved.
