Chapter 432: The Meridian is King
Garrison Wuzhang Plain! How can it be said that tun can be tun? You must know that Wuzhangyuan has already entered the nest of the pseudo-Qi, and it can almost be regarded as the hinterland, with Chencang County in the west and Mei County in the east, and these two places are the gateways to the south entrance of Chencang Road and Fu Luo Road respectively, presumably the pseudo-Qi troops stationed there will not be too few!
Although what Lin Feng said is more good, it is called a garrison army, in fact, to put it bluntly, it is an army with insufficient logistics and baggage standing on Wuzhang Plain to attract the troops of Pseudo-Qi! The generals who led the army through the Baoxiao Valley really needed a certain amount of courage and strategy, otherwise, it is estimated that the final result would be to die in Wuzhang Yuan and go to chat with Zhuge Wuhou hundreds of years ago.
Comparing the expressions of the generals of the Feng family army and the Li family army, it was clear that although the generals of the Feng family army had already learned of this plan in advance, there was no fear on their faces. On the other hand, several core generals of the Li family army would not be a small role if they could be brought by Li Jian to discuss important military affairs, but just from the surface at this time, just speaking of courage, they were much inferior to the people of the Feng family army, and they looked hesitant one by one, and there was even a hint of horror in their expressions, obviously afraid that they would become the one who led the army to the valley.
Looking at all this in his heart, Lin Feng didn't have any special performance, in fact, as early as when he first said the plan, the reaction of the Feng family's army was not much better, although it was several times better than the few people of the Li family's army at this time, but they were all very hesitant, and even persuaded Lin Feng to think about it again. However, the people of the Feng family army did not think about their own safety, but were too worried about the soldiers under their command, after all, they did not want to see their brothers die in vain.
"That's it! That's the way the first way, and then I'll talk about the second way! After waiting for everyone to react for a while, Lin Feng clapped his hands and reminded him, and then pointed to Fu Luo Dao on the sand table and told everyone: "The second road is much easier than the first one!" However, if you take this path, you will not face many enemy troops, but natural dangers! Of course, there is still Luogu Pass to the north to take! However, as long as we get out of Luogu Pass, the pressure on our army will be reduced a lot, and at the same time, the pressure on our army's troops in Wuzhangyuan will also be reduced, because at that time, it is completely useless to continue to defend the main force of pseudo-Qi that will return to Chencang County through Sanguan at any time! Our army only needs to attack from both sides and wipe out Meixian between Luoguguan and Wuzhangyuan in one fell swoop! At the same time, garrison Meixian County, with the main force of the puppet Qi! ”
After listening, although Li Jiajun's people did agree that the difficulty of taking this road was much smaller than that of Baoxie Valley, everyone still snorted coldly in their hearts, the weather in Baoxie Valley was unpredictable, the road was difficult and dangerous, and natural disasters could occur at any time.
"Master Hou, today's Fu Luo Road is not as good as a few years ago, I don't know how many troops Master Hou plans to send on this road?" Li Jian was also a little disappreciative in his heart, feeling that sending troops to Fu Luo Dao was even more unreliable than that of Praise Valley, so he couldn't help but pout, shook his head slowly inadvertently, and asked with a smile.
"General Li, this road is the most difficult section to walk, but as long as you get out of Luogu Pass, it is mostly a plain area, which is suitable for cavalry combat, so after I discussed with the generals, it was decided that our army's winged cavalry regiment would take this road!" Lin Feng didn't seem to hear the doubt and disdain in Li Jian's words at all, and explained with an extremely patient smile: "This question, I'll explain it in detail later!" ”
As soon as these words came out, several people of the Li Jiajun were shocked again, and asked the cavalry to go for a long distance to climb the Fuluo Road mountain road, which had completely destroyed the official road of the past, isn't it crazy? However, Lin Feng's explanation also made them feel a little more at ease, as long as they didn't let them take this risk, they didn't have much dissatisfaction, and continued to listen to the plan quietly.
"Next, it's the most important thing in this plan! It has also been planned to be raided many times in history, Meridian Valley! There is a saying that the six roads of the Qinling Mountains, the meridian is king! Lin Feng's voice was still very deep, but there was a glint in his eyes, and he stared closely at the Meridian Valley, which was the closest to Chang'an at the exit, but the road was particularly long, and after a slight pause, he continued to explain to everyone: "Wei Yan, the general of the Three Kingdoms period, wanted to carry out the Meridian Valley raid many times, but he couldn't do it because of the various political concerns of Zhuge Wuhou at that time!" In recent days, my brothers and I have also discussed many times, and finally determined that the Meridian Valley plot proposed by Wei Yan at the beginning does indeed have a certain degree of implementability! ”
As soon as Lin Feng's words were finished, everyone was stunned, and then they were about to turn their heads and ears, seeing this, Li Xiaofeng hurriedly waved his hand at everyone, and comforted in a deep voice: "Don't worry, everyone!" Let's wait for my brother-in-law to explain the situation in detail! ”
"Wei Yan first proposed to raid the Meridian Valley with 10,000 lightly armed troops to reach the city of Chang'an, take Chang'an with lightning speed, and then wait for the army of Zhuge Wuhou of Baoxie Valley to converge! Later, Wei Yan also proposed to lead 5,000 elite soldiers across the Meridian Valley, and at the same time advance to the east, and take Tongguan to resist Cao Wei's large-scale forces in the Eastern Capital and the Central Plains at that time! Lin Feng first put forward the previous battle examples for everyone to briefly analyze, and then said the plan discussed by his own group: "And the result of our current discussion is to combine the two, not only to merge with the armies of Baoxie Valley and Fu Luo Dao, but also to capture Tongguan!" As for Chang'an City, it doesn't matter whether to fight or not! After all, it is impossible for our army to reach the north of Qinling in a short period of time with a large number of troops, even if Chang'an City is taken, it will be a huge consumption for the defense of our army! It's better to retreat as advance, and attack as defense! We only fight the small places around that we are sure enough to take, and we only need to cut off the supply and support of the pseudo-Qi in Chang'an City! ”
"Master Hou! And that's just theoretical! Seeing Lin Feng stop, Li Jian was the first to express his doubts: "Chang'an City is too big!" If the pseudo-Qi is defended in the city by relying on grain and grass, I am afraid that it will not be able to conquer it in three or five years! Not to mention trying to besiege to death! At that time, I am afraid that our army's grain and grass will not be able to keep up with it and we will have to retreat! ”
"General Lee! Don't worry about that! Lin Feng smiled slightly, and explained mysteriously: "Recently, I asked the brothers below to go out and carry out a multifaceted investigation, including the displaced people who crossed the Qinling Mountains to our side and the refugees hiding in the Qinling Mountains. Presumably, General Li and the generals also understand very well why the pseudo-Qi has been in a hurry to open a breakthrough recently! Their logistics can't hold out for long, the reason why they want to rush into the Hanzhong Plain, in that case, with the practice of pseudo-Qi rebels, they will definitely rob the local people of food to replenish the army's rations! ”
