Chapter 212 Picking up grass and beating rabbits

Looking at Shen Tu Congjian, who looked puzzled, Ma Guangmeng smiled and said: "Shen Tu, is it too boring in Hangzhou all these years, don't worry, this time when you come to Guanzhong, there are battles for you to fight!" ”

Shen Tu Congjian smiled and said: "Dashuai, I mean we can actually send troops to Chang'an City first, as long as we take Chang'an City and defeat Gao Huaide's army, won't the entire Guanzhong be at our fingertips?" "Although Shentu Congjian has not fought in the past two years, his tactical cultivation has improved, and he can actually see the military situation in Guanzhong at a glance!

"Haha, Shentu, that's good. The 50,000 horses under Gao Huaide are the elite troops in Guanzhong, and if his troops are defeated, it is indeed not difficult to win in this Guanzhong. Sun Tzu said in the Art of War: Know yourself and know your opponent, and you will not be defeated in a hundred battles. Now, although we have won consecutive battles and conquered Fengxiang and Longzhou, the Zhou army in Guanzhong did not suffer much loss. And we have some congenital deficiencies. Shentu, do you know what the shortcomings are? Ma Guang laughed fiercely.

"What do we have to offer?" Shen Tu repeated in disbelief: "That... Didn't our soldiers say it! ”

Ma Guangmeng laughed, this Shentu has the demeanor of Han Xin, the Marquis of Huaiyin, from Jian, to Han Xin's generals, the more the merrier. However, Han Xin pays attention to the art of war, and this Shentu Congjian thinks that fighting a war actually relies on two points: ruthless enough and many brothers!

Although Ma Guangmeng is not very old, more than ten years younger than Shentu Congjian, Ma Guangmeng's prestige in the army is extremely high. Even Shentu Congjian, who has made outstanding achievements, is very impressed. At that moment, Shen Tu scratched his head and said with some embarrassment: "Dashuai, where do you think our shortcomings are?" ”

Ma Guang swept his eyes at the lush mountains and said, "Our shortcomings lie in the right place of Longyou!" ”

The right place of Long? Shentu Congjian blinked, and he asked a little incomprehensibly: "Dashuai, where did you start with this?" Although this Fengxiang and Longzhou are not dangerous places that are difficult to open, they are also easy to defend and difficult to attack. If it weren't for the great handsomeness, Xingcheng would be really hard to fight that day! Now that we occupy this place, it is simply like a fish in water, able to attack and defend, how can we say that this place is a defect? ”

"Hehe, this Fengxiang Mansion is indeed precipitous, but there is one thing, don't forget. We're alone! Ma Guang laughed fiercely and said: "All military food and equipment must be supplied by Shu. This grain and grass, eating the grain of Chu is the same as eating the grain of Shu, there is no big problem. But the armament of this Shu Kingdom is far worse than our Great Chu! ”

"Then we should take the initiative to attack and force Gao Huaide to fight us in the Qianzhou area!" Shen Tu said anxiously. Since you don't have enough weapons, you should take advantage of the time to fight the enemy. Why did you come to Longzhou?

"Hahaha, Shentu." Ma Guang raised his thumb and said with a smile: "You have really grown your skills in the past two years." We can indeed enter the customs first, but if Gao Huaide sends people to guard in Qianzhou behind closed doors, what should we do? Assault? Qianzhou City is not Longzhou, if you attack it, we don't stand cheap, after all, this time we sent troops to Guanzhong, we didn't bring any earth-shaking thunder, if you go around, the enemy will stay on your flank, who dares to continue to walk! ”

"Oh, I see. Marshal, do you mean that instead of attacking Guanzhong, we will send troops to the north to attack the weak defense of the Zhou army, so that Gao Huaide will not be able to sit down in Chang'an City, so he can only attack us! Shentu Congjian said. No wonder, no wonder Ma Guangmeng left the well-guarded Zhou Xingfeng in Fengxiang City, it turned out to be this idea!

Ma Guangmeng smiled and nodded, in fact, attacking Longzhou and attracting Gao Huaide's attention made Gao Huaide unable to sit idly by, and the more important purpose was to attract the Shu army to send troops! Ma Guangmeng could naturally lead the army to attack Qianzhou, but it couldn't be fought in ten days and half a month, and if Gao Huaide sent troops to rescue, this battle would definitely drag on for a while. The two armies are in a stalemate, and in this case, the Shu army cannot see the benefits, and I am afraid it will be difficult to send troops. Moreover, after a long time, don't say that Shu is willing to sell so much grain, even if they are willing, is Da Chu really willing to spend such a large amount of money to buy grain?

For Ma Guangmeng, the most critical issue at the moment is not to find a decisive battle with the surname Gao, but how to bring the Shu army in and let the Shu country bleed! When you think about it, it becomes very important to achieve a steady stream of victories. Of course, the springboard for attacking Guanzhong, Fengxiang Mansion must not be lost. So, Ma Guangmeng handed over his main force to Zhou Xingfeng to garrison Fengxiang Mansion. And he himself began to attack the frontier places of Longzhou!

---------

"The last general, Da Chu Fengxiang, will guard Zhou Xingfeng and meet Marshal Han!" Han Baozheng rushed to the outside of Baoji City with the Shu army, and Zhou Xingfeng naturally rushed over to pay a visit.

"General Zhou, please get up. We are allies, each for its own master, not under each other's control, there is nothing to see and not to meet! Han Baozheng said politely. It's not that Han Baozheng is approachable, but now Han Baozheng doesn't care about these little etiquette at all. This time, Han Baozheng sent troops quite quickly, and Emperor Meng Chang gave him a 1o day limit, but Han Baozheng sent troops the next day after the elite troops in Chengdu arrived, and it was only 8 days wasted. Why is he so fast? Because the Chu army has made new progress. Han Baozheng entered Fengzhou City (Shu territory, now Fengxian County, Shaanxi) with his front foot, and the news of the Chu army came from the back foot: the surname Ma has seized Longzhou!

Han Bao was a little blind at that time! Why? Obviously, there are 50,000 troops of Gao Huaide in Guanzhong, and your Chu army is not going to fight with the surname Gao, let's go to Longzhou to pick up a small bargain! There are only a few Zhou troops in Longzhou, so they can resist your Chu army. Han Baozheng is not a fool, is Ma Guangmeng a fool? Ma Guangmeng's generation of famous generals, this title of military god, it is impossible to pinch soft persimmons. Han Baozheng thought about it, he understood a little, in a small way, Ma Guangmeng must have known what the inside story, the Zhou army in this pass may not be able to take care of the west at all, so Ma Guangmeng ignored the Zhou army in the pass, and went to Longyou to grab the territory. According to the agreement between the two countries, whoever snatches it will be the other's, and even if the troops of the other country want to pass through due to military problems, the two sides must go through consultations before they can be released.

Shu has a convex angle on the right side of Long, that is, Qinzhou, if Ma Guang robbed Longzhou, and then went north to rob Weizhou (now Pingliang, Gansu), it is equivalent to surround Qinzhou of Shu. Unless Shu defeats Chang'an City, otherwise, Shu must buy Longzhou, Fengxiang, and Weizhou from Chu, otherwise the prefectures and counties in Shu will become enclaves!

Han Baozheng was in a hurry all of a sudden. Why? Because it's not easy to explain to Meng Chang in the future! Han Bao was hurrying to Baoji City, and when he saw Zhou Xingfeng who greeted him from Tianxing City, his heart suddenly cooled. With his official position, Han Baozheng came to Fengxiang, Ma Guangmeng wanted to see him anyway, if he didn't come to see him now, he would definitely not be in Fengxiang! The man surnamed Ma must have gone outside to enclose the ground! Han Baozheng couldn't help but slander in his heart: This surname Gao is really true, how can he watch Ma Guangmeng behave in Longyou? Why don't you send an army to kill the Chu army all at once!

Why did Gao Huaide stand still, people are not idiots, Zhou Xingfeng has 20,000 horses under him in Fengxiang. Gao Huaide has gone out to the army a lot, what if Zhou Xingfeng sneaks up on Chang'an? If there are fewer troops to go, it will not be of much use. What's more critical is that just after the Chu army sent troops to Fengxiang, the battle between the Khitan and the puppet Zhou under Youzhou City has come to an end! Zhou Junsheng!

Of course, it wasn't a big one-touch victory. The Zhou army plus Zhao Kuangyin's troops invested a total of 150,000 people, while the Khitans plus the 60,000 defenders of Youzhou invested 2o people. The two sides fought in the area of Yuhe, and when the Zhou army gritted its teeth and struggled to support, Zhao Kuangyin's 30,000 horses suddenly came out of Juyong Pass as if falling from the sky, and then reversed the entire battle situation.

The Khitans suffered casualties and surrendered nearly 100,000 (because there was a Han army inside) and retreated to Youzhou, while the Zhou army also suffered 60,000 casualties, and was unable to pursue at all, so they could only temporarily garrison at Yuhe. Although the Zhou army did not defeat the Khitan army in one fell swoop, but he has taken a big advantage, as Juyong Pass fell into the hands of the Zhou army, Changping was also conquered by the Zhou army, and the entire Khitan retreat in the northwest direction has been cut off by the Zhou army! The Khitan 100,000 horses could only stay in Youzhou, connecting with the Khitan's Tokyo Province through Pingzhou (present-day Luanxian County, Hebei). If the Zhou army conquered Pingzhou, then the Khitans would be surrounded by the Zhou army.

But at the critical moment of deciding the outcome of the game, there were two accidents in the Zhou army, first, although Changping was firmly in the hands of the Zhou army, Juyong Pass was actually attacked by Khitan Yelu Huge; Second, I don't know what was painted on the bow and arrow that Yelu dragged the stab, Guo Rong's arrow wound was inflamed, and it couldn't be cured, the whole person was groggy, and there was a short-term coma. Guo Rong's health became extremely poor. There were also rumors in the army suddenly, what "Zhou has no salary, why not pick up firewood", which means that this Great Zhou has no mandate of heaven, why do they need to help their surname Chai (Guo Rong's surname is Chai)! In addition, the eastern front of the Chu army was extremely fierce in the Jingdong region, and the central line was also active in Caizhou, which caused the army's morale to be quite turbulent.

At this moment, Guo Rong was a bit of a dilemma. Continue to fight, don't say anything, your body can't stand it. Go back? Then I'm afraid the Central Plains won't be able to hold it. Why? If you don't take advantage of the sluggishness of the Khitans to kill the Khitans now, and let the Khitans take a breath, the Zhou army will undoubtedly set up a great enemy. Guo Rong discussed several times with Zhao Kuangyin, Li Gu and others, and he left Zhao Kuangyin to continue to be in charge of the Youzhou war, but he led a part of the army back south (he couldn't help but take part of the army, otherwise, the rest of the army would be difficult to rest assured). In the Northern Expedition, although the Zhou army won successive battles and defeated the land of Sizhou, the Khitans still had the strength to fight. The two gangs of people were at a stalemate in Youzhou.

With Han Baozheng's troops, coupled with Liu Chengjun's troops in Hedong a few days ago, a new round of the Four Kingdoms' expedition to the Central Plains officially kicked off!
