Chapter 540: The Battle of Destroying Cao (2)
"Yes."
Guo Tu said: "More than ten years ago, when the lord was still the assassin of Youzhou, he once told the people that he could communicate with the gods in the sky, and it was the gods who sent divine beasts to help the lord fight. I thought it was a good gimmick. ”
"Most of the people are ignorant and have no ability to think independently, and who would not believe that the lord said that he was the Son of Heaven sent by God, who ruled the world and saved all peoples? After all, those divine beasts, everyone can look at them... "In fact, until now, the civil and military people in Hebei have not figured out where those giant beasts came from?
Some people really believe that Yuan Xi is the reincarnation of God, or the Son of Heaven sent down.
But on this issue, Yuan Xi has been covering it up, obviously unwilling to disclose it.
How dare Wenwu ask?
Guo Tu said with a smile: "Once the world believes that the lord is destined by heaven and can give the people a stable life." and they will obey the Lord from their hearts.... ”
"In addition, not only the lord claims to be the Son of Heaven sent by God, but also our generals. For example, General Ma Chao, isn't he called General Tianwei by the Qiang people? When he set out for the battle, he had General Tianwei on the banner. Yan Liang, Wen Chou, Zhang Jaw, Jiang Wei, etc., all the generals who want to fight against Cao Jun also add a title. In the title, there must be a heavenly character. You must know that the heavens are awe-inspiring.... ”
"The lord is the Son of Heaven sent by God, with heavenly soldiers and generals, to crusade against Cao Cao. Who is not afraid? Who doesn't chill? ”
Guo Tu wanted to suppress Cao Cao psychologically.
In ancient times, they believed in ghosts and gods, and also feared ghosts and gods. In the past, Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, wasn't he Xiang Yu who defeated him in the name of the Red Emperor? And Yuan Xi is not just a gimmick, but also the fact of a divine beast, which is more convincing.
After listening to this, Yuan Xi nodded again and again: "What the public rule says is reasonable, and it will be of great help to fight Cao Cao." ”
"Chen Lin."
"Yes."
Yuan Xi instructed: "I'm afraid your thief's text will have to be changed..." ”
Chen Lin smiled and said: "The minister understands that as soon as the text comes out, it is guaranteed that the people of the world will be attached to the lord, so that Cao Cao, Liu Bei, and Sun Quan will be frightened, and pave the way for our army to go on the expedition." ”
"Haha... I am sure that I am relieved of the text you wrote. But after it's written, it's going to show me, and I'm going to have a look. Yuan Xi said.
"Yes."
Guo Tu's advice was adopted by Yuan Xi.
This means that the war with Cao Cao is mixed with ghosts and gods.
After pondering for a long time, he said: "Once Chen Lin's text is announced to the world, it will resonate with the world. Should our offensive against Cao Cao be biased towards prudence? Make more use of these legends to win people's hearts and persuade enemy generals to surrender? ”
"Why does the gentleman say that?" Yuan Xi asked.
"My lord, please think about it, we are heavenly soldiers and generals, you are the Son of Heaven sent by God, and you are ordered by heaven to crusade against Cao Cao, how can you fail? In case we make a dangerous move and are accidentally overwhelmed by Cao Cao, wouldn't we slap ourselves in the face? I'm afraid there will be a backlash then. So, we should march safely. ”
"Not really."
Jiang Wei said: "Morale can be boosted, how can you change your combat strategy because you are worried about the doubts of the world?" These are two different things. The last general thinks that the theory of ghosts and gods can only play an auxiliary role, and he can't all count on a legend to defeat Cao Cao. This leads us into the wrong direction. In the final analysis, the key to eliminating Cao Cao is still to need a few big battles to eliminate his living force in the war. After attacking the city and conquering the Central Plains and Guanzhong, this is the only way to defeat Cao Cao. ”
Jiang Wei's words made Yuan Xi sober up a little.
He originally felt that what Guo Tu said was very right, relying on the theory of ghosts and gods, he could indeed hit Cao Cao. But it is absolutely impossible to eliminate Cao Cao, and there must be a huge military operation to defeat Cao Cao with real swords and guns.
"Ahem..."
Yuan Xi said in a serious voice: "Okay, the ghosts and gods say, that's the end of it." We can use this as a gimmick to boost the morale of our army and strike a blow at Cao Cao, but we can't be timid or even change our combat strategy because of this incident. This is the same as what Jiang Wei said.
"Mr. Fu, tell you about the combat strategy you originally formulated."
"Yes."
Frustrated and asked for a document.
He opened the document and said: "This is the operational strategy that our Military Administration Department decided on yesterday evening after many discussions and deliberations. ”
"First of all, I would like to introduce to you the troops participating in the war this time. In the Central Plains, the 50,000 infantry army led by Gao Lan, Yan Liang's 70,000 infantry army, Yu Ban's 40,000 infantry army, and the 50,000 naval army transferred to Yangzhou by General Gan Ning. A total of 210,000. In Hebei, we transferred garrisons from the three major prefectures of Merge, You, and Hebei, including General Ma Chao's 100,000 Northern Cavalry Army, and the Wolf Cavalry Army, the Pioneer Battalion, and the newly formed 10,000 Chariot Army stationed in Wei County, totaling 410,000. ”
"In addition, we also have naval troops stationed in Liyang and Qingzhou, and there are about 50,000 of them participating in the battle."
"All these troops add up, a full 870,000!"
Hiss...
When Fu Zhu said this number, the civil and military personnel present were collectively dumbfounded.
Even Yuan Xi didn't expect that he had so many soldiers and horses.
"Is there 870,000?" Yuan Xi asked excitedly.
"Yes, my lord. These are all mobilizable, if you count the garrisons that cannot be mobilized, such as the 50,000 border troops guarding the Great Wall, the garrisons of Korea, Goguryeo, and Beiping, and the infantry cavalry left behind by various states and counties, the lord should have 1.3 million troops. Frustrated.
Such a huge military force is absolutely rare.
When Yuan Shao fought Cao Cao, he was only known as an army of 700,000. But Yuan Xi has to dispatch 870,000 this time. 170,000 more than Yuan Shao.
"God has eyes, let's command an army of 870,000 to fight, if we can't eliminate Cao Cao, what face do we have to go back to Hebei?" Yuan Xi secretly made up his mind that this time he must destroy Cao Cao, the great enemy.
"Mr. Fu, you can continue with your strategy."
"Yes."
He continued: "First of all, we have to understand, what is the focus of this attack? Our focus is on eliminating Cao Cao. And to achieve this goal, we must cut off Cao Cao's connection with Liu Bei and Sun Quan, otherwise we will face not only Cao Cao, but also Liu Bei and Sun Quan. Therefore, General Jiang Wei commanded 20,000 Bingzhou infantry troops, 10,000 Jizhou chariots, and 20,000 northern cavalry troops to set up a formation in Weihe. As General Jiang Wei said before, standing on the Weihe River would cut off Cao Cao's connection with Xiliang, and would prevent Liu Bei from supporting Cao Cao from Qishan. ”
Then General Pang De and General Gan Ning led 40,000 northern cavalry troops and 50,000 naval troops to Neijiang in Jingzhou, south of Fancheng. Gan Ning was stationed in Fancheng, and Pang De entered Nanyang to garrison. Completely cut off Liu Bei's connection with Cao Cao, and waited for an opportunity to capture Wancheng, the capital of Nanyang, and assisted Gan Ning to prevent the Jingzhou army from crossing the Neijiang River. ”
"There are only 3,000 Cao troops in Xiaopingjin, and behind Xiaopingjin, there are defensive positions for more than ten miles, which are extremely difficult to attack, but we must send a force to go, even if it is contained, we can't let Cao Cao relax. We have given this task to General Hao Zhao, commanding 15,000 Jizhou troops, as well as transferring 3,000 naval troops from Gan Ning to assist you in breaking through Xiaopingjin and waiting for an opportunity to capture Luoyang. ”
