After receiving the financial support of the Hanoi Wang clan, the Hanoi Taishou Wang Kuang, the Jibei Xiang Bao Xin, and the Xuzhou Army gathered their troops and horses and marched towards the Baibo Valley Zibo City, the garrison of the Baibo Bandit Army.

In addition to the generals of the three headquarters, Huangfu Song, the pottery merchant's art of war and marching teacher, also went out with the army.

When the march was about to reach the Baibo Valley, the potters asked Huangfu Song for advice on the tactics of the crusade against the Baibo army, in addition to the population resources of the Baibo army, the potters also wanted to increase their experience and practice level through this battle.

The relationship between Huangfu Song and the yellow scarf can be described as breaking bones and connecting tendons, of course, this description does not mean that the two are very close, on the contrary, it should be incompatible.

Huangfu Song was the nightmare of the Yellow Turban Army back then, and the incident of the Yellow Turban Army also made Huangfu Song.

Huangfu Song told the pottery merchant that if there was no accident in this expedition against the Baibo army, the Baibo army would definitely refuse to defend the Baibo Valley by virtue of the danger, and would not compete head-on with the official army.

The reason is very simple, although the White Polish Army has a large number of people, not all of them are elite, and there is no fixed governance system, several Qu Shuai and thief leaders go their own way, and in the face of well-prepared officers and soldiers, the White Polish Army has no certainty of victory.

For Huangfu Song's analysis, the potter gave a very high degree of affirmation and evaluation after careful consideration.

"Teacher." The pottery merchant sincerely asked Huangfu Song for advice: "Since the Baibo army has decided to stick to the Baibo Valley, what should the disciple do?" to be able to win this battle? ”

Huangfu Song was very satisfied with Tao Mall's attitude of learning and appreciated it.

When people get older, they generally like to be modest.

"The terrain of Baibo Valley is dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack, it is definitely not possible to fight hard, the first thing you have to do is to mess with its military morale."

"Messing with the morale of the army?" Hearing this, the potter touched his smooth chin, as if he couldn't understand it: "Then what should be done?" ”

Huangfu Song said with a smile: "You are the commander of the Xuzhou Army, and the old man can only provide a general strategic direction for Ti, and then you will think about practice by yourself in practice, understand?" ”

The implication is that I want to recruit myself? …… Talking is always choked and hidden, these ancients.

Huangfu Song stroked his white beard and said with a smile: "If you can find a way to mess with the morale of the army, what do you think the next move of the White Bo Army will be?" ”

The pottery merchant closed his eyes, quietly recalled the specific analysis and teaching of Huangfu Song's own summary of the five dangers, six precepts and seven fears of the handsome man during this time, and then slowly said according to his own understanding: "In the Baibo Valley, once the military spirit is unstable, it cannot be regarded as the best policy to hold it for a long time, in order to stabilize the military heart, we must find a way to win a few battles, stabilize the army's heart, and strengthen the momentum!" In this way, we can continue to protect the city of Zibo. ”

Huangfu Song smiled with satisfaction and said, "Good ...... If the White Wave Army goes into battle, what are you going to do next? ”

Under the encouraging eyes of Huangfu Song and the guidance of searching, the potter said slowly: "Once the White Wave Army goes out of the valley to fight, if it can take the opportunity to defeat it and frustrate its sharpness, the momentum of the White Wave Army will inevitably fail, day after day, when the army's heart is already unstable, and it will not be able to win in battle, and once it is self-defending, the situation will be exhausted, and there will be a change......

"Not bad!" Huangfu Song didn't seem to expect that the pottery merchant's ability to draw inferences would be so strong, and said happily: "When the situation is exhausted, there will be changes, and then it will be the time for you to use the odds, if you can adapt to the situation, then the Bai Bo Army will not be difficult to break!" This is the mystery of the soldiers! ”

When the potter heard this, he seemed to suddenly realize, and said, "I see...... However, this soldier is easy to say, but it is quite difficult to do...... First of all, it seems that the first step alone is not easy to mess with the hearts of the enemy. ”

Huangfu Song laughed when he heard this, and said: "It's still the same sentence, you are the commander of the Xuzhou Army, you have to figure out how to do this by yourself, don't you have a lot of losses on weekdays?" If you think about it, you might be able to figure it out. ”

The old man doesn't speak very well...... What do you mean by a lot of bad moves?

Famous generals chatter, are they all hanging like this?

……………………

……………………

However, what Huangfu Song said was right, the potter pondered carefully on the road for a while, and it really made him think of a solution.

However, this method needs to be agreed by Bao Xin and Wang Kuang.

After hearing about the potter's idea, the two were a little hesitant at first, but the potter assured that this was just an expedient measure to disrupt the morale of the other army, and if the strategy really had an adverse reaction, the Xuzhou army would find a way to deal with the aftermath.

Seeing that the potter had made such a promise, Bao Xin and Wang Kuang were inconvenient to say anything, so they nodded in unison and agreed.

……………………

Before the three soldiers and horses came to the Baibo Valley, the leaders of all walks of life arranged for the soldiers and horses to camp around the Baibo Valley, blocking several important roads outside the Baibo Valley in a semicircle, and tens of thousands of soldiers and horses took the wooden fence as the front end and arranged a high platform so that the situation in the valley could be observed at any time.

The city of Zibo is not entirely surrounded by walls, but in the northwest there is a section of the terrain that rises above the city, and a large mountain stands in the way.

It is said that it is a city, but in fact it is better to say that it is a fortress, the fortress is leaning against the mountain, and behind the mountain is a cliff, and the cliffs are intricately intertwined, which has become a natural barrier by itself. In this way, Bai Bo's defenders only need to rely on the cliff with their backs, concentrate their forces to defend the various passages in front of the mountain range, and choke their throats with danger, and they can rely on the danger to defend it, and it will be difficult for thousands of troops and horses to capture.

However, the alliance of the princes of the three routes blocked the passages everywhere, so that if the Baibo army was dispatched, it would not be able to show the advantage of having more soldiers, so both sides did not dare to use troops easily here, so they could only hold each other apart.

Bao Xin and Wang Kuang were a little helpless in the face of such a terrain.

However, the potter is not, since he has discussed the established policy with Huangfu Song, he must follow this line and resolutely implement it.

The potter asked Wang Kuang to requisition a batch of damaged coarse cloth from Hanoi that could be used for writing, divided it into hundreds of parts, wrote the characters, tied them to arrows, and shot them out of the valley.

Watching the batches of arrows tied with rags being shot straight into the other party's valley, the potter's eyes were a little complicated, and his heart seemed to be thoughtful.

Han Hao was explained by Wang Kuang, and it can be said that it is a great responsibility to be in charge of the grain and grass dispatch of the Bai Bo Army this time.

However, although it was the governor's allocation of grain and grass, Han Hao had always maintained a rather curious attitude towards the potters, and from time to time he would go to the potters to ask questions...... Maybe I've never seen someone like this on weekdays.

Han Hao was standing next to the potter at the moment, and like the potter, he looked at the letters being shot into the valley, and hesitated: "Master Tao, isn't your plan of discord and chaos a little too obvious?" ”

The potter nodded, agreeing with Han Hao's point of view, and his self-criticism was very profound: "It's not just obvious, it's just explicit...... This may be the lowest level of heart-attacking strategy. ”

When Han Hao heard this, he opened his mouth dumbly, but he didn't speak, and he didn't know how to evaluate the potter.

I really can't imagine that there are still people in the world who would say that their plans are too low-grade......

"But what about ......" The potter turned around, showed a warm smile at Han Hao, and said: "However, the lowest stratagem depends on who it is used on, if this stratagem is used to divide the soldiers of the regular army, it will definitely not be of any use, but if it is used on the Yellow Turban Army......"

The potter turned his head, staring at Bai Bogu with dark eyes, and said, "It's basically a matter of course. ”
