Chapter 309: Confrontation

Looking at Zhao Yi's appearance, it seems that there is really a way to deal with the Qiang soldiers, Cao Cao just wanted to ask Zhao Yi, but was rejected by Zhao Yi on the grounds that military secrets must not be leaked, which made Cao Cao quite annoyed. But because Zhao Yi is the marshal of the expedition to the west, he is just a general under him, so he naturally has to obey Zhao Yi's orders.

However, if Zhao Yi is really prepared, he will definitely mobilize the soldiers, and in the past half a day, whether it is the soldiers brought by himself, or the soldiers brought by Sun Jian, or the Jizhou official army led by Zhao Yi himself, there is no sign of mobilization, which makes Cao Cao a little strange.

Looking at Zhao Yi's confident appearance, Cao Cao was really a little strange, whether Zhao Yi really had a way to deal with the Qiang soldiers, or was he bluffing here. As a commander like Zhao Yi, one of his small mistakes may bring immeasurable losses to his own officers and soldiers.

The previous Zhang Wen's marching formation was the same as Zhao Yi's, and he was also stationed in the wilderness, but he was broken by Beigong Boyu with a fast horse and a spear, and now Zhao Yi is doing this again, whether it is Cao Cao or Sun Jian, they are very worried.

"General, since you already have a plan, why don't you send soldiers to prepare? If the Qiang soldiers suddenly attacked, then our army would definitely be caught off guard. Cao Cao asked Zhao Yi.

Sun Jian next to him also asked Zhao Yi, but his tone was much tougher than Cao Cao's, "Although the general is said to be the marshal of the expedition to the west, he has the power to make decisions in the army. However, the general is concerned about the safety of the imperial army, and the last general must know what the adults think, so that I and General Cao Cao can cooperate with the general, and we don't know how to deal with it when the Qiang soldiers come to attack. ”

Having said so much, Sun Jian and Cao Cao just wanted Zhao Yi to put out the plan in his heart, because if they didn't know the strategy, they didn't know Zhao Yi's thoughts.

Gift? What gift? At this time, he was not prepared, did he want to send his hundreds of thousands of imperial army to the mouths of the Qiang soldiers?

According to Cao Cao and Sun Jian, even if Zhao Yi did not let the soldiers enter the city, he should also send the soldiers to build a simple earthen wall with sacks, so he was somewhat sure of the impact of the Qiang soldiers. Now that Zhao Yi is defenseless at all, if the Qiang soldiers attack at that time, what can he do to resist?

"Since the two generals know that Ben Jiang once trapped 50,000 Qiang Qu soldiers with a pike team in Guangning County, then Ben Jiang can also use the pike team to form a formation to deal with the impact of the Qiang soldiers." Seeing Cao Cao and Sun Jian with doubts on their faces, Zhao Yi had no choice but to say what he had in mind, and analyzed the current situation of the double reversal.

And now the situation is very different from the previous situation of General Zhang Wen's march, Zhang Wen sent troops to conquer Beigong Boyu but about half a year ago, at that time Beigong Boyu was just emerging, although he gathered 100,000 soldiers, but did not capture a few cities, Beigong Boyu's 100,000 soldiers were together, so Beigong Boyu dared to attack the imperial court camp.

Now Beigong Boyu occupies a number of cities in the northwest of Liangzhou, the soldiers are scattered more seriously, most of the soldiers are sent to guard the city wall, if Beigong Boyu wants to form a superior soldier to attack the official army, not only time-consuming, but more importantly, he is afraid of riots among the people in the city.

"Now there are more than 40,000 soldiers in the county seat of Biaoshi, but according to the caution of the previous Qiang general, with 40,000 soldiers, he will never dare to attack our officers and soldiers." Zhao Yi said with certainty that Beigong Boyu's purpose was just to occupy a piece of land in Liangzhou, and if he really wanted to subvert the Eastern Han Dynasty, the battle would not be this way of fighting.

If he wanted to subvert the Eastern Han Dynasty, Beigong Boyu would definitely not put most of his troops on the city defense, but would hold most of his troops in his own hands, and attack all the way to the east and directly attack Luoyang. At that time, the Eastern Han Dynasty temple will collapse, and the world will be in chaos.

"Why is the general so sure?" Cao Cao asked, Cao Cao had already heard of Zhao Yi's spear team, when he was fighting with Zhang Jiao in the past, Zhao Yi led thousands of soldiers in Fanyang County, and he once blocked tens of thousands of Yellow Turban troops with a spear formation. Since the spear team can block the Yellow Turban Army, it is naturally not a problem to block the Qiang soldiers.

"I'm afraid." Zhao Yi only said one word, "Because there are not many soldiers in his hands, the general is afraid that our side has already prepared, so he rashly went out of the city to attack and fall into the trap of our army, and even if the 40,000 soldiers in his hands can escape from our camp, I am afraid that he will also suffer heavy losses." ”

Cao Cao and Sun Jian listened to Zhao Yi's analysis and nodded, Zhao Yi's analysis was indeed good, and the Qiang soldiers in the county town of Biaoshi must have this idea.

"Now that our army has won the first battle, should we take advantage of the victory to attack the city? Attack the county seat of the Epitome County? Although Zhao Yi's means of victory were not very bright, it was indeed a victory and inspired the morale of the soldiers in the army.

Zhao Yi looked at the city wall of the county seat of the Biaoshi County not far away, and muttered for a while, "This county town of the Cousin is not as good as the county town of Guangning and the Goguryeo tribe city of that day, there are not only elite soldiers and generals in the city, but also grain and grass, if our army attacks rashly, it will definitely suffer heavy losses." ”

There are 40,000 soldiers in this cousin county, if the official army fights with these 40,000 soldiers, even if they capture the cousin county, I am afraid that the number of casualties will exceed 10,000, and the news of Zhao Yi's entry into Liangzhou, the general of the cousin county must have informed Beigong Boyu. If the official army fights with the defenders in the county town again, Beigong Boyu seizes the opportunity to lead the soldiers to come again, so that the officers and troops of Zhao Yi's department have no chance of victory.

Cao Cao seemed to think of something and hurriedly asked Zhao Yi, "I heard that General Zhao attacked the Goguryeo headquarters that day, and used earth and stones to pile up on the city wall, and then the army rushed out of the city gate to exterminate the Goguryeo tribe's hand, and now the situation is quite unfavorable for our army, can our army use this method to deal with the county seat of Biaoshi or its surrounding counties?" ”

Zhao Yi's strategy to deal with the Goguryeo tribe that day was exquisite, and Cao Cao greatly appreciated it. The situation is similar to that time now, the officials and soldiers can repeat their old tricks, and the height of the county seat is not as good as the city of the Goguryeo tribe, and it is estimated that tens of thousands of imperial officers and soldiers will be able to fill in this city gate in less than three hours.

Zhao Yi still shook his head, because the situation now looks similar to that day, but there is a difference between heaven and earth, and the reason why the Goguryeo tribe is so easy to capture is because the Goguryeo tribe has no reinforcements on the periphery, so it was easily broken by Zhao Yi. The county seat of the table is different, the county seat of the table and the surrounding counties are intertwined, relying on each other, it can be said that the whole body is affected by a hair. If Zhao Yi attacked like this, he was afraid that he would be attacked by the enemy.

"Send soldiers to investigate the situation in the county seat and several surrounding counties, and report back immediately if there is any situation." Zhao Yi waved his hand and ordered Tanma to go out to listen to the news, and then let Cao Cao and Sun Jian enter the military camp to rest.

The conquest of Beigong Boyu is not a matter of one or two days, and the decisive strategy is not to say that there is one, but Zhao Yi is not in a hurry.

The sky gradually darkened, the lights on the wall of the Biaoshi City were bright, and the radius of more than ten zhang was as bright as day, and the Beigong Boyu and the general on the city gate looked into the distance, condescendingly watching the official army camp of Zhao Yi's department.

I only saw the official and military camps, the camp tents were scattered, and the torches held by the patrol soldiers were connected together, like a fire dragon flexibly shuttling through the various camp tents.

"Zhao Yi is worthy of being an expert in marching formations, and the various camp tents rely on each other, and they are relatively evenly dispersed, so that soldiers can quickly run out of the barracks in case of emergencies." Beigong Boyo praised it, he didn't appreciate Zhao Yi's character very much, but he appreciated Zhao Yi's ability very much.

The general also stared at Zhao Yi's camp, his eyes flashed, and he was thinking in his heart, if he led the soldiers to rush over, where should he enter and where he should come out after the sneak attack, and finally the general gave up the idea of raiding the official camp, because Zhao Yi's marching formation was too cumbersome.

Suddenly, the camp tents were scattered, and at a glance it seemed that there was nothing profound, but if he looked closely at the various camp tents connected together, thousands of camp tents constituted a huge labyrinth, if he easily led the army in, not to mention whether he could defeat the official army, he was not sure that he would turn out of it.

However, he didn't worry about anything, because they had enough time to confront Zhao Yi, but Zhao Yi, who was under the emperor's order, did not have this advantage.

Beigong Boyu also has eyeliner in Luoyang, and the eyeliner has already transmitted Zhao Yi's matter in Luoyang, and all the generals know that Zhao Yi's situation in the Eastern Han Dynasty is quite delicate now. Although the emperor's favor is now very beneficial to Zhao Yi, there is also a great danger, and there are not a few people who want to find Zhao Yi's handle and pull him off the horse.

If Zhao Yi didn't attack for a long time, then without Beigong Boyu's action, the mediocre emperor would transfer Zhao Yi back, and even punish Zhao Yi, and those officials would even fall into the well and put Zhao Yi to death.

"Now our soldiers have the advantage, although Zhao Yi is talented, but he is bound by the so-called holy decree, he will definitely take the initiative to fight with our army in the short term, if Zhao Yi takes the lead, our army can see Zhao Yi's weakness from it, and then attack with superior forces, then the official army will inevitably be defeated." The general spoke out about the situation on his side.

Now the Qiang soldiers have to do something extremely simple, which is to recuperate and deal with the siege of Zhao Yi's troops.

The general ordered the horses to keep a close eye on the movements of the officers and soldiers, and to report any changes immediately. The general wished that Zhao Yi's army would turn to attack other cities, and if Zhao Yi attacked other cities, then they could attack back and forth and wipe out Zhao Yi's army under the city wall.

In the early morning, when the sky was just dawning, Zhao Yi walked out of the military tent to check the topography of the county seat of the Biao family, which was condescending and quite difficult to deal with. However, if Zhao Yi turned to attack other counties, then the soldiers of the county seat and the rest of the county towns would rush out and flank his own officers and troops before and after.

"It would be nice if there was a way to lure the county defenders out." Zhao Yi sighed secretly, except for the county seat of the Biao clan, there were not many defenders in the rest of the county, but because of the resistance of the city wall fortifications, no matter how brave and good the officers and troops of Zhao Yi were, they could not overcome it for a moment and a half.
