"Tell the Lord, Jeruxiu has led his army to retreat north."

The latest military information reported back confirmed Li Zhongyi's previous judgment that the Khitans really wanted to adopt the strategy of luring the enemy deep into order to attract him to continue to go north.

"What do you think?" Li Zhongyi turned his head to look at Gao Qiang and Zhang Sanzheng, and his questions were almost everywhere, making Gao and Zhang unable to cope.

Gao Qiang thought for a while and said, "The enemy army in Youzhou City, can there be additional troops?" If there is no increase in troops, it means that Yeluhugo does not know the power of our artillery. ”

Zhang Sanzheng said: "I think that Brother Yelu Xiu has already known the information that our army has artillery, and the rapid fall of the Daimyo's mansion, no matter how slow the news is, it should have reached Brother Hugh's ears." ”

Li Zhongyi nodded, and asked Gao Qiang again: "How many Khitan elites do you think there are currently in Youzhou City?" ”

Gao Qiang thought hard for a while, and hesitated: "I'm afraid it won't be less than 100,000 people, right?" ”

Li Zhongyi nodded frequently, and then turned his head to look at Zhang Sanzheng, Zhang Sanzheng thought hard for a while, and said with some difficulty: "Brother Hugh probably wants to cut off our back road with heavy troops, so first, there is Youzhou in front of which is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and there are at least 100,000 Khitan elite iron cavalry in the back, and our army is in danger!" ”

Li Zhongyi smiled, under his careful cultivation, Gao Qiang and Zhang Sanzheng grew up rapidly.

Talents cannot fall from the sky, they must be cultivated by their own hearts!

In the lecture hall, the training is for professional middle and lower-level infantry officers, but there is no fixed place for the training of senior generals for the time being.

The establishment of the Bujun University Hall, as well as the Sailor Academy and the University Hall, has always been Li Zhongyi's goal, but he has just taken over the national power, and he has not yet freed up his hands for the time being.

Future wars will inevitably revolve around sea and land, and today's sailors are still in the initial stage of training.

That is, the construction of the water division has not yet embarked on the path of specialization and regularization. The so-called specialization and regularization refer to the officers of the naval division, who are all professional officers from professional backgrounds.

In everything, there must be advantages and disadvantages, depending on whether the disadvantages are big or the advantages are great!

Li Zhongyi stands tall on the law of the development of the world's navies and sees it very clearly. Whether it is the navy of the British Empire or the navy of the American Empire, its officers are all from professional backgrounds.

Generals from professional classes have the risk of dogmatism, but they have many advantages over the extensive training model of using the old with the new.

Among them, the most prominent advantage is that generals from professional classes are not easy to make low-level mistakes.

Now, what Brother Hugh is doing is almost exactly the same as Kutuzov's idea back then, that is, he wants to lure the Li family's army to the north, and stop his troops under the fortified city, and then be cut off by the main cavalry group led by Brother Hugh to cut off the supply route of food and materials.

In history, the Song army, in fact, was often easy to gain the upper hand and win beautiful battles during positional warfare.

However, the Song army, which lacked horses, even if it won a big victory, could not expand its gains because it could not catch up with the enemy army, and could only watch the enemy on the grassland flee away.

Li Jiajun is fundamentally different from the traditional Central Plains Wang Shi, but it is quite similar to the Tang Army in the Tang Dynasty.

First of all, there are many horses, secondly, the characteristics of long-range strike weapons are diversified, and finally, the discipline is unusually strict!

The party has been prostrate under the feet of Li Zhongyi, and Li Zhongyi, the source of horses in the northwest, is firmly in his hands, and the dilemma of the lack of horses in the weak Song Dynasty in history has been completely solved here in Li Jiajun.

As for long-range strike weapons, this is indeed worth mentioning, Li Jiajun currently has long-range strike weapons such as 6-pounder guns, 12-pounder guns, and divine arm crossbows.

Among them, especially the help of 100 artillery pieces, the Li Jiajun took advantage of the positional battle before the battle began.

I think that at the beginning, when Li Zhongyi marched into Tokyo and Liang, he only used artillery to continuously bombard Han Tong's camp, which caused a great chaos in the imperial forbidden army, and won an extraordinary ease.

Under the city of the Daimyo's Mansion, the artillery of the Li Jiajun posed a deadly threat to the wide city wall.

To put it bluntly, the birth of artillery announced that the city defense warfare, which relied on the city walls to resist the attack, had completely fallen behind the entire era.

Li Zhongyi once famously said that the appearance of artillery means that the so-called famous generals who are good at guarding will have a hard time coming out.

Yelu Hugo is worthy of being the first Khitan general, after knowing the truth about the rapid fall of the Daimyo's mansion, after a short shock, he immediately changed his original battle plan, and instead adopted the strategy of luring the enemy deeper, reuniting and annihilating.

Objectively speaking, with the current strength of the Li family's army, if Brother Hugh chooses to defend Youzhou, it will be much easier.

Now, Youzhou is in front, and the Khitans are threatened by more than 100,000 main elites, and it is difficult for the Li family army to concentrate on attacking Youzhou City.

In the ancient siege of the city, if there is no reinforcement outside the defender, the risk of being surrounded and broken is very great.

There were more and more victims from the north and south, and Li Zhongyi simply did not leave, set up a large camp on the spot, and opened his mind to accept the Han people in Youzhou who were driven out of their homes by the Khitans.

There are too many Han people in Youzhou who have been driven out of their homes, so many that it is beyond Li Zhongyi's imagination, and hundreds of thousands of people have been arranged to go to the Daimyo's Mansion, which is obviously unrealistic.

After thinking about it for an hour, under the reminders of Zhang Sanzheng and Gao Qiang, Li Zhongyi finally came up with a clever trick!

According to the resettlement policy, Li Zhongyi originally planned to disperse these Han people who had been driven out of their homes and arrange them to go to all parts of the country.

However, Zhang Sanzheng's unintentional words reminded Li Zhongyi that the number of powerful people who were raided and inspected in Goryeo was too large to count. Li Zhongyi's privately owned Goryeo fields have exceeded 3 million hectares, and half of the victims can be divided.

These Han people, who were driven out of their homes by the Khitans, arrived in the unfamiliar country of Goryeo, and their only reliance could only be Li Zhongyi, and it could not be anyone else.

In this way, Li Zhongyi is equivalent to an extra hundred thousand Han people out of thin air, and the strength of controlling the Goryeo Kingdom is greatly strengthened compared to before.

The nature of immigrating to Goryeo is roughly similar to that of the Xinjiang Construction Corps, and it is obviously a win-win situation for both the landless victims and Li Zhongyi.

"My lord, I heard that we camped on the spot and received the victims who lost their land on a large scale, and the Khitans have come back!"

Li Zhongyi soon received this bad news, and Brother Hugh obviously wanted to adopt the strategy of the enemy stationing us to disturb us, and did not want to give Li Jiajun a chance to digest the landless victims.

"How much food do we have? How many boats? Li Zhongyi found Ye Tongming, who was also the logistics director, and inquired in detail about his existing family background.

Ye Tongming said with a smile: "Back to the Lord, the food, clothing and other materials from the Daimyo's Mansion were originally enough for us to chew and wrap for about two years. Even if you arrange to receive twice as many Hermes-Epitek Youzhou, it will be enough for half a year. ”

Li Zhongyi nodded and said, "This means that as long as the grain route is not cut off, our people are not afraid of starvation, right?" ”

"Yes, the grain route must be protected, otherwise, it will only be enough for three months just the grain and grass carried by the army." Ye Tongming has always been rigorous, and he said that if he can survive three months, then it must be like this.

Li Zhongyi thought for a while and said, "Since the Khitans have pounced again, let's retreat slowly." ”

Brother Hugh wanted to harass the Li family army and make it unpeaceful, Li Zhongyi naturally would not let Brother Hugh's conspiracy succeed, he deliberately went the opposite way, adopted the strategy of the enemy advancing and retreating, and looked for a fighter to annihilate Brother Hugh's main cavalry.
