Chapter 102 There are rules for offense and defense, see the moves
"Master Pi, what should we do now? Still standing still, guarding Tianlong Mountain? A general under Pi Tong's tent asked.
"No!"
Pi Tong smiled with a sly look, "I have never made any moves here before, and this is also a trick to lure the enemy. Now it is clear that Wang Mang has been tricked. In his heart, he had already decided that we would only stick to Tianlong Mountain and not take the initiative to attack.
Sun Yang, Su An, the two of you can lead a thousand troops and advance ten miles. After a day, if there is no movement from the other army, you should wait for another ten miles and make an offensive, but do not take the initiative to attack. This time, I want to completely cut off the thoughts of people like Wang Mang who are trying to use the people's will to gain momentum. ”
"What does that mean?" Sun Yang was puzzled.
"The army attacks the heart, the middle army scheming, and the army takes advantage of the situation. I have let you lead the army forward, but I have attacked his heart and frightened him. When he saw that our army did not stick to Tianlong Mountain, he must have panicked. If he had had had some previous arrangements and plans against us, they would have been disrupted. ”
Pi Tong explained: "The way of the battle formation, true and false, false and true. We want to make the other side unclear about our true intentions, seize the initiative, and force them to be unable to carry out all their plans. Now Wang Mang marched rapidly, and he must be tired. At this moment, if we see our army dispatched, in a panic, we will either start a decisive battle immediately, or retreat.
As soon as they put on a posture of retreating, we will slowly press on them and force them into a corner. The main intention of this move was to drain their energy and force them to surrender voluntarily. Of course, it would be best if they could be forced back to the Tiger Prison directly, so that they could also completely cut off the future troubles of benevolence and righteousness.
Everyone, think about it, if Wang Mang fought against us for many days, in the end he would still choose to defend the Tiger Prison Pass and drag the people in the city into the water. In this way, how many people in the world will believe in people like Wang Mang in the future? They will certainly say that the benevolence of the superior is nothing more than a temporary hypocrisy. Once the danger comes, don't you have to turn your face ruthlessly and drag the people into the water? ”
"Boiled frogs in warm water!"
Pi Tong is using this strategy at the moment.
Under his tent, those generals listened to the words, and all of them showed admiration.
Before, he did not move, but deliberately let the enemy lay out various schemes.
Changing the situation with a sudden move now can make it impossible for the enemy's previous plan to be effectively implemented, forcing the enemy to make a major choice in a hurry.
"My lord, you are the god of soldiers, and the magic of arranging the formation, I think that Han Xin and Wei Qing and others are nothing more than that. Everyone in the world says that Li Zhong is as famous as you, but in fact, he is much worse than you. One of the generals exclaimed sincerely.
"No, Li Zhong is indeed a hero, not to be underestimated. This time he suffered a little loss, purely because he was a little arrogant, and he was also cheated by his younger brother Li Yi. Otherwise, how could Wang Mang escape his hands? ”
Pi Tong was very modest, and he stopped again and again, giving people a feeling of Confucianism, and said with a light smile: "There was once an old man who commented on me and Li Zhong. The old man once said that Li Zhong is good at using rigidity and has the potential to be crushed by a rolling torrent. Whatever is blocked, all swept away, unmatched. As for me, the old man said that I was good at using softness, like spider silk, slowly winding, and finally forcing the enemy to death.
Han Xin and Wei Qing, both of them are both strong and soft, good at judging the situation, proficient in Qimen Dunjia, and both are born kings of the army. I have a little talent, but I'm not as good as the two of them. Unless I join forces with Li Zhong, I can stop one of them. This old man's comment is also fair, so you must not underestimate Li Zhong just because he lost two games. ”
The generals were shocked and hurriedly asked, "Dare to ask your lordship, who is the old man?" ”
Pi Tong shook his head and said, "Don't say it, don't say it." The power of this old man is beyond our match. Even the handsome men in his clan have many capable people. Okay guys, don't talk about him, go and get ready. Be cautious and cautious, don't suffer a small loss and lose face at this juncture. ”
"Yes, sir!"
The generals slowly dispersed, each leading his troops to hold their positions.
That Sun Yang and Su An ordered a thousand elite soldiers, raised flags, beat war drums, and swaggered in the direction of Wang Mang's army.
Dong Wu and other generals who were hiding in the shadows, preparing to sneak attack the campfire and burn the baggage, they were shocked when they saw that Pi Tong's army had actually left Tianlong Mountain, and they hurriedly discussed.
Their plan this time was precisely because they saw Pi Tong's army standing still, so they made this trip.
But now, Pi Tong's army has moved, which makes them slightly panicked, and they don't know what to do. There is a thought in my heart that people are not as good as heaven.
"General Dong, what should we do now?" Yan You said a little anxiously: "This Pi Tong is really cunning, and it is impossible to guard against it. Although Mr. Gongsun's plan is very risky, on the whole, there is a feasible way. But now, I'm afraid this plan will..."
"Yes, General Dong, why don't we hurry back." Xiang Wei was also full of panic, and said very uneasily: "At present, among our army, there are only two generals who lead the troops, Gao Ming and Ziliang. If Pi Tong's army is pressed on all fronts, I am afraid that Lord Wang will fall into a dangerous situation. And Mr. Gongsun didn't expect the other party to leave Tianlong Mountain in advance, so it can be seen that our trip is meaningless. ”
Dong Wu's brows were furrowed, a trace of coldness appeared on his burly face, and he said in a deep voice: "Generals, don't panic, don't mess up." As the saying goes, the way of battle formation is ever-changing and unpredictable. Now that they have only sent out a thousand elite soldiers, why worry?
In my opinion, they are just trying to test the king. Now let's wait and see how the situation goes. According to the momentum of their march, Lord Wang will definitely make corresponding movements in the shortest possible time. Then, based on this movement, we will decide whether to carry out the original plan or not. ”
"That's all there is to it." Yan You and the others nodded, and waved their hands behind them.
Suddenly, the soldiers behind him were even more hidden, almost merging with the jungle.
There was a movement in Pi Tong's army, and within a few hours, Gongsun Ce already knew about it.
As for Wang Mang, he also knew about the movement at the moment, but he didn't bother to ask, and let Gongsun Ce arrange it.
There is no suspicion in employing people, and there is no need for suspicious people. Wang Mang had heard that the storyteller had said this sentence countless times, and he had three flavors in it.
Chen Chong was a little worried, and asked: "Mr. Gongsun, visit the Malay newspaper, saying that Sun Yang and Su An led a thousand troops to leave Tianlong Mountain and march towards our army, now what should we do?" ”
"This is Pi Tong's first plan, Lord Chen doesn't need to panic, he can make the soldiers slow down a little to confuse Pi Tong." Gongsun Ce replied.
"What does that mean?" Chen Chong was puzzled.
