Chapter 965: Gambling

Regarding Zhou Yu's judgment, Zhao Hongrun thought so. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

You must know that now the Su Wang Army and the Northern First Army are grouped, the latter is guarding Pigao Pass, Duanshi, and Gao Wolf, and the former is guarding Hun's City, Changzi City, and Weiqiu.

In fact, as early as the end of last year, Storm Kite had already discussed this issue with Jin Huang and Feng Ting.

They knew very well that once the spring of the coming year begins, outside the Tianmen Pass, the Northern Second Army of Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Southern Liang of the Wei State, who is stationed in Qinyang, will undoubtedly begin to attack the Tianmen Pass.

At that time, Wei Gongzirun's army will also raise troops at the same time and copy the back road of Tianmen Pass - it is very likely to directly attack Gaodu and attack the rear granary of Tianmen Pass.

In this way, there is the Northern Second Army in front, and the Suwang Army in the back, Tianmen Pass is backed by the enemy, even if Gaodu hoards a large amount of food, it can support the Han army in Tianmen Pass to defend for a month, but the question is what about after a month?

Not surprisingly, Tianmen Pass will still be captured by the Wei army, and when the time comes, the Korean army stationed at this pass will be completely annihilated.

Therefore, staying trapped in the gate of heaven is the most passive strategy, and there is hardly any chance of winning.

In this case, Storm Kite, Jin Di, and Feng Ying all thought that they should take the initiative.

However, on how to "take the initiative", there were differences of opinion among the three of Storm Kite, Jin Huang, and Feng Ting.

Storm Kite thought that he should take the initiative to attack the Wei army in Shangdang's territory, that is, the Su Wang Army and the Northern First Army.

Because in the face of the Northern Second Army of Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Southern Liang, Tianmen Pass was in danger to defend, and this Wei army could not break through Tianmen Pass from the front in a short period of time.

In comparison, the Suwang Army and the Northern First Army in Shangdang were more threatening, because these two Wei armies could directly attack Gaodu, the granary of Tianmen Pass. Compared with Tianmen Pass, Gaodu's city defense is far inferior, and it is very likely to be captured by the Wei army.

Even if you take a step back, the Wei army failed to conquer Gaodu, but as long as the Wei army comes to Tianmen Pass and Gaodu and cuts off the connection between the two, Tianmen Pass will still be lost at that time.

Therefore, the storm kite believes that the two armies of the Suwang Army and the Northern First Army are the most threatening.

But Jin Huang raised an objection: "Attack the Su Wang Army? Frontal attack? Although there are still tens of thousands of cavalry in Tianmen Pass and Gaodu, if it were replaced by any other Wei army, I have no doubt that it will be the victory of our army...... But the army under the command of Wei Gongzirun, in front of the cavalry of the "Shangshui Youma", do you really think that the victory of our army's tens of thousands of cavalry is very great? ”

Hearing this, the storm kite was silent.

Shangshui Traveling Horse, the terrible of this heavy cavalry, the violent kite has personally understood.

In the Battle of Hyun City, he led 30,000 cavalry to attack the army of Wei Gongzirun, but was killed by 5,000 heavy horses and fled.

That battle can be called the worst and worst defeat in the history of the Korean cavalry, 30,000 cavalry died most of the whole battle, and the two cavalry generals of Huachang and Zhangwu died on the spot, how many years has South Korea not suffered such a heavy defeat?

As long as the heavy cavalry is still there, the Korean army in a head-to-head confrontation will not be able to defeat Wei Gongzirun's army, there is no doubt about this, whether it is cavalry or infantry - not to mention the crossbowmen, the crossbowmen's powerful crossbow arrows hit the heavy cavalry, the latter is not painful at all, there is no threat.

Seeing that the violent kite had a calm face and did not speak, Jin Huang put forward his own suggestion: "I think we should make full use of the advantages of our cavalry to cut off the grain route of the army under Wei Gongzirun. …… Try to avoid going head-to-head with them. ”

Hearing this, the storm kite sneered: "To put it lightly, cut off the grain route of the army under Wei Gongzirun...... Didn't you see that the Northern First Army was stuck in the high wolf? How to cut off? Wei Gongzi runs him in Weiqiu, you think he is blind? You lead the army to attack the high wolf's Northern First Army, and want to cut off his back road, he leads the army to copy your back road, and unites the Northern First Army to attack you front and back, and the defeated person must be you. ”

Hearing this, Jin Huang was speechless.

Indeed, even though the Northern First Army did nothing in the last Northern Xinjiang Campaign, and neither Storm Kite nor Jin Huang took this Wei army seriously, but in all fairness, if the Northern First Army gave up attacking and held on to a certain place, this army would still have a certain strength.

For example, at the beginning, Jin Huang did not capture Anyi, which was desperately defended by the Northern First Army.

Unless they can quickly capture Gao Wolf this time, otherwise, when Wei Gongzirun leads Wei Qiu's Su Wang army to outflank him from behind, the Han army will not only be unable to defeat Gao Wolf, but will even be in danger of being wiped out.

"Wei Qiu...... Why did you let Wei Gongzirun take Wei Qiu?"

Frowning, Jin Huang secretly hated.

He deeply regretted that he shouldn't have let Wei Gongzirun take Wei Qiu at that time.

But in all fairness, this matter is not to blame Jin Huang, because in the battle situation before the "Battle of Weiqiu" at that time, Weiqiu was indeed not a strategic place, it was a lonely mountain.

At that time, Wei Gongzirun retreated to Weiqiu, and they sent troops to surround it, in fact, there was a great chance that they could completely annihilate this Wei army.

It's just that Wei Gongzirun played a trick and deceived more than 20,000 Korean cavalry at that time, plus the support of the Northern First Army later, which made the Korean army lose the battle.

It can be said that Wei Gongzirun relied on that trick to regain the disadvantage.

And now, the Wei Qiu Wei army and the Gao Wolf Wei army are in a group, fighting each other, in this case, leading the army to attack the high wolf is indeed not a knowing choice.

But attacking the Weiqiu Wei army is also not a wise choice.

For a while, Storm Kite and Jin Huang fell into distress.

And at this moment, the party guard Feng Ying thought for a long time, and suddenly said on the side: "No, you can fight!" ”

As he spoke, he saw that Storm Kite and Jin Di were looking at him with surprised eyes, so he explained: "Our army can hardly defeat Wei Gongzirun's army in a head-to-head confrontation, this sentence is wrong, the correct statement is that only in the presence of the heavy cavalry of the traveling horses, it is almost impossible for our army to defeat Wei Gongzirun's army in a head-to-head confrontation...... If there were no horses and heavy horsemen, in fact, our army would have a chance of victory. In the battle of Weiqiu, if it weren't for the timely reinforcement of the Northern First Army, Wei Gongzirun's battle would have been lost. ”

After that, he saw that the violent kite moved his lips as if he wanted to correct something, so he preemptively said: "I know what the general wants to say, the general wants to remind me that the reason why Wei Gongzirun's army showed a rout at that time was because General Hua Can led thousands of cavalry to rush to support...... This is true, but think about it on the other hand, if our army's infantry can hold out until General Hua Can arrives to support, does this mean that our army's infantry and Wei Gongzirun's infantry still have the strength to fight. Although these words are not glorious, after all, it is 40,000 troops to resist 20,000 Wei troops, if there is no cavalry led by General Hua Can to help, maybe our 40,000 troops will really be defeated by Wei Gongzirun's 20,000 troops, but one thing I want to point out is that in the absence of General Hua Can and the Wei army of the Wei army in the north to help, our army relied on twice the strength of the force, and the Wei army in Weiqiu fought for several hours, until dawn, and our army showed a slight rout. …… And now, Wei Gongzirun's army stationed in Weiqiu is less than the number of troops at that time, but the troops at my Tianmen Pass are far better than those of that day, why is there no chance of victory? If my expectations are correct, Shang Shui Youma should still be in Hyun City. ”

"......" Storm Kite and Jin Huang glanced at each other, and their faces vaguely showed a bit of understanding.

Indeed, as long as the heavy cavalry was not present, in fact, they could defeat the Wei army of Weiqiu by virtue of their superiority in strength, not to mention that they still had a large number of cavalry.

"What do you mean...... Attack Weiqiu? The storm kite pondered for a moment, nodded slowly and said, "According to what you say, it's really ......."

"No!" Before Storm Kite could finish speaking, Feng Ying interrupted the former's words, shook his head and said, "It's not to attack Wei Qiu. …… Attacking Weiqiu, our army can also win, but it will take a long time...... Weiqiu Wei Army, to be clear, is Wei Gongzirun's army, this is an elite, plus Wei Gongzirun is personally in charge, if we want to capture here, it may take a month. …… And after the beginning of spring, can we have a month? …… Ji Run's army has conquered the eldest son city and Hyun City, and they will definitely use troops against Tianmen Pass in the coming year, which means that after the beginning of spring, Wei Gongzirun's army is bound to move south, and how many days will it take for Hyun City to Weiqiu? Even if it's a rabble, five days can come, right? Do we have a month to attack Weiqiu? ”

Speaking of this, he glanced at the violent kite and Jin Di, and said in a low voice: "Fight the high wolf!" …… Gao Wolf's Northern First Army is far inferior to Ji Run's army......"

"Wei Gongzirun will copy the back road." Jin Huang frowned and said.

"Let him copy it." Feng Zhengse said: "I know he will save him, and I also hope that he will send troops to support Gao Wolf." …… If he doesn't save the wolf, our army will have little chance of winning. However, Wei Gongzirun will save Gao Wolf, I suspect that the commander of the Northern First Army, that military master, Huan Wang (Ji) Xuan, is very likely to be Wei Gongzirun's brother, so the Northern First Army will appear here. …… According to this thought, Ji Xuan's Northern First Army was attacked by our army, and Ji Run, who is a brother, will he not save him? …… When Ji Run sent troops to support Gao Wolf, let's take down Wei Qiu. ”

"......" Storm Kite and Jin Huang were silent.

"After taking Wei Qiu, a fire burned down the Wei camp on the mountain, and then, the whole army besieged Ji Run, Wei Gongzi Run did not have a heavy horse under his command, his victory was very small, in this case, Ji Xuan of the high wolf did not save this brother? …… He will definitely save it, because if he can be ruthless, then there is no need for him to come to the party at all, so he will definitely save it. If you are not at ease, send the cavalry to take down the high wolf. Wei Qiu and Gao Wolf have all been captured. …… What's more, they surrounded Ji Run again, and this time, they may also catch up with his brother Ji Xuan. …… As for the Wei reinforcements in Hunshi City and Changzi City, it is enough to send two cavalry teams of 35,000 people to harass them, and delay the arrival of Wei reinforcements here as much as possible. …… Let's concentrate our forces and first capture Ji Run and Ji Xuan, the two sons of Wei. ”

"......" Storm Kite and Jin Huang glanced at each other, and after a long time, they nodded slowly.

"That's it!"

Storm Kite whispered.
