Chapter 812: Must be able to succeed
Yuan Shu will not miss such a good opportunity, and since the battle, the performance of the Xuzhou cavalry on the battlefield has been extremely arrogant, and they have even come to the vicinity of their own camp, such a situation is also intolerable to Yuan Shu.
As long as there is this victory, the dispatch of your own army can bring a lot of pressure to the Xuzhou army.
The mobilization of 100,000 soldiers and horses is not something that can be completed in a short period of time, and the army under Yuan Shu's command is not like the standing soldiers and horses in Xuzhou, which can fight at any time, just in terms of mobilization, it will take a lot of time.
This is also an important reason why Yuan Shu could not do a good job of concealing the news when he mobilized troops and horses to attack Xuzhou, and the princes all had the means to obtain news, and when they saw the frequent movement of the opponent's troops and horses, they could make more judgments from it.
Lu Bu is a good general, but when developing Xuzhou and Yanzhou, the means secretly displayed should not be underestimated, just the strength of Lu Bu's secret control is enough to make ordinary princes more cautious.
In the past, Yuan Shu did not put Lu Bu in his eyes, thinking that Lu Bu was just a vulgar general, so he suffered a big loss in the hands of Lu Bu, and now the situation is the best opportunity to recover the disadvantage in one fell swoop, as long as Lu Bu can be defeated in the war, the rest of the matter is even simpler.
At that time, Yuan Shu will be able to send troops to attack Lu Bu, so that Lu Bu can experience the cruelty of war.
Lu Bu's achievements on the battlefield are eye-catching, in the face of such achievements, other princes want to have greater achievements in the battle against Lu Bu, what is needed is more careful planning, if they have contempt for Lu Bu, it may bring defeat in the war.
The previous defeat made the generals under Yuan Shu's command more cautious when planning the war, in fact, this kind of thing is also good for Yuan Shu, so that the generals in the army will not have pride because of the victories in the previous wars, and they will have a lot of caution in the face of war.
When the generals in the army are more cautious about the war, if they want to win the war, it will not be far away.
And this operation, in Zhang Xun's view, has a great possibility of success, the current cavalry in Xuzhou is so arrogant on the battlefield, there is no regard for their own cavalry, their own cavalry repeatedly retreated, but also let the enemy breed pride.
Such pride may lead to the defeat of the enemy army in the war.
Zhang Xun set his eyes on Yang Hong and said: "Changshi, now that our army has been properly arranged on the battlefield, although there is no dangerous terrain near Hushan, it will not attract the attention of the enemy. ”
Yang Hong nodded with satisfaction, as a strategist in the army, he can have more important weight in front of the generals, in the final analysis, he still needs his own efforts, otherwise, it is impossible to get more respect from the generals in the army.
The generals in the army are not good-looking existences, and they are also sufficiently vigilant when dealing with literati.
Mainly in some cases, the attitude of the literati towards the generals will make the generals have a lot of dissatisfaction.
This situation is also under the command of other princes, behind the civil officials, there is the support of the family, and behind some military generals is different, they may have outstanding ability, but behind them there is no strong family as support.
In this case, it is inevitable that you will be at a disadvantage when competing with civil officials, and you will even need to have a respectful attitude when facing civil officials.
This is also due to the status of civil officials in the minds of the princes.
Zhang Xun is different, he is a famous general under Yuan Shu, and the Zhang family is also a famous family under Yuan Shu's rule, if he is despised because of Zhang Xun's status as a general, he will definitely suffer, and Zhang Xun can get to his current position under Yuan Shu's account, which is enough to show that Zhang Xun's ability is extraordinary.
With the support of strong family strength and enough power in the army, Yang Hong will have a more cautious attitude when facing Zhang Xun, and is even willing to make more friends with Zhang Xun.
When Yang Hong has a corresponding influence in the army, he will get more support when he does something, which is also a normal thing.
Now this war plan is the beginning of Yang Hong's important weight in the army, as long as this confrontation can be won, Yang Hong's status in the army can be improved to a greater extent.
even made the generals in the army have a more respectful attitude when facing Yang Hong.
When a civilian official has the corresponding influence in the army, he will have a more important voice in front of the monarch, and even let the monarch have more importance to him.
Yang Hong's ability to get to his current position has a lot to do with his own efforts, and over the years, he has been in charge of intelligence, which has allowed Yang Hong to provide direction for the development of Yuan Shu, and has also gained a lot of trust from Yuan Shu.
In this regard, it is not comparable to ordinary strategists, and ordinary officials also have a respectful attitude when they see Yang Hong.
This situation makes Yang Hong quite satisfied, living under the rule of Yuan Shu, he must have enough strength in order to have a more important position when Yuan Shu's strength is improved.
"General Zhang's plan for the war, this officer admires it." Yang Hong said with a smile.
Zhang Xun said: "Everything is because of the long history of planning, if this war can be won, the long history is a great contribution." ”
Hearing Zhang Xun's praise, Yang Hong showed a satisfied smile, after getting Yang Hong's praise, his influence among the soldiers in the army will be improved accordingly in the future, which is also an inevitable thing.
With Zhang Xun's influence in the army, after his order is issued, the officers and soldiers in the army will not have more disobedience, and the most important reason is Zhang Xun's prestige in the army.
Zhang Xun has great military exploits in the battlefield, and such merits will make Zhang Xun's position under Yuan Shu's account more stable, so that ordinary generals dare not have more doubts when facing Zhang Xun.
If the generals want to achieve greater achievements under the princes' tents, what they need is to win the war again and again.
Since he was ordered to train cavalry, Zhang Xun did not dare to slack off in the slightest, he knew how important the cavalry was in an army, if the cavalry could have a greater role in the future confrontation, the war would go more smoothly.
