Chapter 298: The two sides are in harmony
Qianqian, the fastest update of the latest chapter of Han Tianzi!
In fact, against Yan You and Chen Mao this time, Wang Chang's heart is very bottomless, as far as his heart is concerned, he doesn't even have the certainty of winning one percent, and now after listening to Liu Xiu's analysis, Wang Chang's confidence has suddenly improved.
If Liu Xiu's judgment is correct, then in this battle, the hope of his side winning is really great.
He turned his head to look at the sky and said excitedly, "Uncle Wen, it's better to bring all our brothers here, sit down, and discuss together." ”
Liu Xiu also had this intention, nodded and said, "This is very good." ”
The two sent their men to find their subordinates for a meeting in the future. Liu Xiu asked Liu Quan to prepare wine and food, it is estimated that after the meeting, it will be dark, and everyone will have to stay in the house for dinner tonight.
Liu Xiu failed to send the house out, to be precise, Wang Chang insisted on not accepting it, which made Liu Quan have a great impression of Wang Chang.
After listening to Liu Xiu's instructions, Liu Quanxing hurriedly arranged for the servants in the palace to kill chickens and sheep and prepare a dinner party.
After half an hour, Deng Yu, Yan Guang, Ma Wu, Cho Qi and others under Liu Xiu came one after another, and the generals on Wang Chang's side also arrived one after another, including Cheng Dan and Jia Fu.
Everyone on both sides gathered together, talking and laughing, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.
The people of the Xiajiang Department, who have been on the battlefield for a long time, can fight habitually, and they are arrogant from the bones, and on weekdays, they don't look down on the people of the Xinshi Department and the Pinglin Department, but they look at the Zhutian system who is brave and good at fighting.
When everyone arrived, Wang Chang turned his head to look at Liu Xiu, leaned over and said, "Uncle Wen, you can analyze the situation for your brothers first!" ”
Liu Xiu smiled at Wang Chang and said in a low voice, "Yan Qing, it's up to you!" ”
Wang Chang was stunned for a moment, and then showed gratitude, Liu Xiu is helping himself to establish his prestige!
He didn't pretend to excuse himself, and then, Wang Chang told everyone about Liu Xiu's analysis as it was.
In the end, he didn't forget to add: "This is all Uncle Wen's analysis, I just repeated it to the ranks." ”
After listening to Wang Chang's words, whether it was Liu Xiu's brother or Wang Chang's brother, they all showed joy. Cheng Dan grinned and said with a smile: "If this is the case, our army is not without hope of winning this battle!" ”
Wang Chang smiled: "Not only do we have the hope of winning, but our chances of winning can reach seven or eighty percent!" ”
When everyone heard this, the joy on their faces became even stronger.
A general of the Xiajiang Department said calmly: "Even if General Liu's analysis is correct, the strength of Yan You's army is still much more than that of our army, and the combat power of the county army is not under the government army, so it should not be underestimated!" Another Green Forest general echoed: "Especially this army, it is still commanded by Yan You and Chen Mao personally, these two are old and cunning, very good at governing the army and using troops, and there are a large number of die-hard loyalists under their command, and our army is still at a disadvantage."
! ”
Wang Chang nodded again and again, and said: "That's right, the strength of the two sides is still strong and weak, but the enemy's advantage over our army is far less than we imagined, and the enemy is far less terrible than we imagined." ”
Everyone agrees on this.
Deng Yu said: "Yan You will definitely go all the way south to Wancheng when he enters Nanyang, and according to my judgment, the most likely route for Yan You is to go south along the east bank of the Sha......he River."
Halfway through his words, Liu Xiu asked people to get a map. Everyone present stood up and gathered around the map.
Deng Yu pointed to the sunset gathering in the north of Wancheng and said: "This is the key point that Yan You must occupy, if our army can deploy here in advance, in the battle, you can take the initiative!" ”
Everyone looked at the map carefully, and Cheng Dan said: "Although the Sunset Gathering is located on the only way to Wancheng, Yan You can also choose to bypass the Sunset Gathering and arrive directly in Wancheng." ”
Deng Yu shook his head and said firmly: "No!" First, if Yan Youyi gathers regardless of the sunset, then they will face the danger of being cut off and losing logistics supplies. Second, Wang Mang is a man and has always been suspicious, and between Yan You and Wang Mang, there is a mustard, and Wang Mang will not have much trust in Yan You. Wang Mang has always been strict with distrustful generals leading troops to fight, and the predetermined marching route is
It must be strictly followed, and once a change is to be made, the generals who lead the troops must go to the court and get Wang Mang's approval before they can be implemented.
"The delay of this trip is too long, and the fighter plane will definitely be delayed, so as long as the sunset is located on the march route of Yan Youyi, they can only choose to attack and will not avoid it!"
After listening to Deng Yu's analysis, everyone's eyes fell on the map again.
Sunset gathering is an important place in the north of Wancheng, Yan Youjun is going to Wancheng from the north to the south, and it is inevitable to pass through the sunset gathering, and the sunset gathering must be on Yan Youjun's marching route.
Cheng Dan moved his eyes upward, looked at Xi'e County in the north of the sunset, and asked: "Zhonghua, if the sunset is located on the road that Yan Youjun must pass, then Xi'e must also be, why don't we deploy in Xi'e and choose to gather in the sunset?" ”
In Cheng Dan's view, the fortification of the city defense in the county town of Xi'e is far stronger than that of the sunset. It will also be easier for your side to fight in Western Hubei. Deng Yu said with a smile: "Two points! First, the city of Western Hubei is too large, and the number of enemy troops is too large, and our army is deployed in Western Hubei, and it is easy for the enemy to find weak points and tear apart the defense line. Although the defense of the sunset gathering city is weak, the place is also small, which is conducive to our army to concentrate troops and concentrate defense. Second, and most critically, the sunset gathering is close to Wancheng, and once the situation of our army is unfavorable, you can ask the general for help as soon as possible. Yan You's army fought in Xi'e and dared to besiege the city, while Yan You's army fought in the sunset.
They would never dare to besiege the city, because on their periphery, there would be a great general! ”
Everyone showed a look of sudden realization, Deng Yu set the place of the battle at Sunset, it must have been carefully considered, and his approach was to make use of Liu Xuan, who attacked Wancheng.
On the surface, his own side was 30,000 soldiers against Yan You's army, but in the actual battle, his side was 40,000 soldiers, an extra 10,000 new troops.
And this new force is still commanded by Liu Jiu himself, and it can conquer the Zhutian Army, which is accustomed to fighting.
Cheng Dan already understood Deng Yu's tactical core, and there was nothing to ask anymore, so he gave Deng Yu a thumbs up and praised: "Zhonghua is clever, Cheng admires!" ”
Deng Yule said hehehe: "General Cheng praised it falsely, and Yu is ashamed!" ”
Wang Chang stroked his palms and smiled, the overall situation, Liu Xiu has done a full analysis, tactics, Deng Yu has also formulated a perfect plan, next, there is nothing to say, just implement it yourself.
He said with a smile on his face: "To be honest, in the past, against Yan You and Chen Mao, I really didn't know the bottom in my heart, but now, I am starting to look forward to it!" Ha ha! ”
Everyone present was also happy, Liu Xiu said: "The significance of this battle is not inferior to the battle of Xiangshui, as long as Yan You's army is defeated, Wancheng will be in our bag!" ”
All the generals nodded frequently, and when they thought that they could have a chance to defeat famous generals like Yan You and Chen Mao, the militants in their blood were beating non-stop, and their eyes were shining.
Liu Xiu slapped his face and said: "I have prepared wine and food, tonight, we will all get drunk and rest, and tomorrow morning, our army will set off and go to Wancheng!" ”
"Good! Get drunk! ”
Liu Quan had already prepared the wine and food, and as Liu Xiu spoke, Liu Quan hurriedly asked the servants to bring the wine and food.
This meal of wine and food, Liu Xiu also made a lot of money, it was very rich, chicken, duck, pig and mutton, everything. On the small square table in front of everyone, there was also a pot of wine.
Liu Xiu took the lead in picking up the wine glass, raised it upward, and said loudly: "This first glass of wine, I wish our army success in the first battle, defeat Yan You and Chen Mao, and then strengthen the majesty of our Han army!" ”
The people below stood up in unison, holding wine glasses with both hands, and said in unison: "Defeat Yan You and Chen Mao, and strengthen the majesty of our Han army!" As he spoke, everyone greeted Liu Xiu and lowered their glasses and drank all the wine in the glass.
Liu Xiu also drank the wine in the cup, poured another glass of wine, and said: "This second glass of wine, respect the determination of our army!" In this battle, our army has no way to retreat, either drink the enemy's blood, or, you and my brother, see you in Jiuquan! Dry! ”
"!"
Everyone took up the second glass of wine and drank it all again.
Then, Liu Xiu took the lead, slammed the wine glass in his hand on the ground, pointed to the broken cup, and said in a loud voice: "If I, Liu Xiu, am in a cowardly battle, I swear to be like this!" ”
People were stunned at first, and then they all threw the cups in their hands on the place and said in unison: "If we wait for a cowardice, I will also swear to this cup!" ”
Seeing that Liu Xiu only said a few words, he mobilized everyone's determination to fight to the death, and Cheng Dan was excited, but the fear in his heart was also deeper.
If the two brothers Liu Xuan and Liu Xiu really gain power, with the ability of these two brothers, the green forest will never come out again.
At this banquet, except for Cheng Dan, who was a little absent-minded, the rest of the people were all happy.
After drinking, Ma Wu, Gai Yan and others all ran to the side of the generals of the Xiajiang Army, they did not drink with wine glasses, but replaced them with wine jars, and they drank a jar of wine.
Seeing this, Liu Quan, who was beside him, grinned secretly, muttering in his heart, fortunately, Gongzi does not often hold banquets, otherwise, even if there are mountains of gold and silver, they will have to drink them up.
Tonight, Liu Xiu's wine was not less, he was originally white-faced, but at this time he had turned into a big red face.
When the people were full of food and drink, the banquet came to an end, and everyone said goodbye to Liu Xiu.
Sending everyone away, with Liu Quan's support, Liu Xiu was about to go back to the room to rest, when a servant ran up and said respectfully: "Son, the general is here!" ”
"Oh?" It's so late, why is the big brother here? Although Liu Xiu was drunk, he was not drunk to the point of delirium. He went to the lobby in the front yard and saw Liu Xuan standing inside, pacing back and forth.
He asked curiously, "Big brother?" ”
Seeing Liu Xiu, Liu Xiu smiled and asked, "Ah Xiu, how was the banquet tonight?" ”
Liu Xiu smiled and said a little proudly: "Enjoy the guests and hosts." ”
Liu Xuan asked, "How is Wang Chang?" ”
Liu Xiu thought for a while and said, "It's worth making deep friends." ”
"Hmm!" Liu Xiu nodded, and after sitting down with Liu Xiu one after another, he asked, "Ah Xiu, are you sure about this expedition?" ”
"Eighty percent sure."
Liu Xuan really didn't expect that the little brother could have so much confidence. After staring at him for a moment, he sighed lightly and said, "My confidence is not as strong as Ah Xiu!" ”
Liu Xiu asked puzzledly, "Big brother came late at night, but is there something?" ”
Liu Xuan wanted to speak and stopped, as if it was not easy to speak. Liu Xiule was happy, and asked with a smile: "What's the matter with the eldest brother, are you embarrassed to tell me?" After a moment of silence, Liu Xuanfang said slowly: "Ah Xiu, the eldest brother came to you tonight to borrow someone from you!" ”
