Chapter 151: To Each His Own Calculation

"Sir, there has been something unclear about Feng, please ask Mr. to explain." Liu Yi was spending money to command people to build a military camp, and ordered Wei Yan and Guan Ping to command men and horses to guard the surroundings to prevent the troops from Changsha from coming to raid, but Liu Feng came to find Liu Yi and bowed down to ask.

It can be seen that in the past month, Liu Feng's attitude towards Liu Yi has changed a lot, and his words are much more respectful than before.

"Oh?" Liu Yi looked at the map and asked, "What doubts does the young general have?" ”

"Whenever Sir arrives in a place, he will leave elite soldiers stationed and take them away, although the number of our army has increased, but the consumption of grain and grass has also intensified, and now these 5,000 soldiers and horses, if you talk about combat strength, I am afraid that they are not as good as the original subordinates of our army." Liu Feng looked at Liu Yi and said seriously: "Although this method can make a number of county towns quickly annexed, if you encounter such a situation now, I am afraid that it will be unfavorable to fight." ”

What kind of soldiers did you bring before? Not to mention the school of people brought by Mocheng, only the 2,000 soldiers and horses that Liu Bei gave to Liu Yi are also in the school field established by Liu Yi, at least the soldiers who have been trained for more than a month, whether it is the tacit understanding of cooperation, or the quality of the soldiers themselves, they are not comparable to these improvised county soldiers.

Fortunately, Liu Yi took the water route, if he took the land route, the performance of these soldiers may seriously slow down the march.

What's more, there are two or three hundred people in a city, and most of the troops originally led by Liu Feng and Guan Ping have been assigned to various cities, and now these soldiers are really not as easy to command as the previous soldiers and horses, and they have replaced the elite soldiers and strong generals with today's ruffian generals, if they can always be like that, it is good, once they encounter a city as strong as Linxiang and a city with enough troops to garrison, it is not easy to win.

"It's a problem." Liu Yi nodded and said, "But I didn't say that I must attack the city!" ”

Liu Feng looked at Liu Yi suspiciously, if he didn't attack the city, Liu Bei's order was to capture Changsha.

"Isolate this Linxiang first, I plan to order you to lead a group of men and horses, and occupy the five cities of Xiangnan, Rongling, Chaling, and Yiyang in Youxian County, and then you and I can have more soldiers and horses, and then you and I will join forces together, if Han Xuan divides troops to rescue, I will lead the troops to attack the city, if he defends to the death, then Linxiang is a lonely city, this is not Jiangling, how much grain and grass does he have to consume with us?" Liu Yi smiled and said his plan, he would not fight, but he had heard a lot of this kind of trick.

Although I don't know how many defenders there are in Linxiang, but according to the information obtained by the counties, there are one or two thousand people in the land of Linxiang, this is Liu Yi's advantage, he has many soldiers, dare to divide the troops, if the other party divides the troops to rescue, Liu Yi directly attacks the city, if the other party comes out of the city to attack, it is just right, Liu Yi directly defends the camp and consumes the opponent's troops, no matter how it is calculated.

As for why he chose Liu Feng instead of Wei Yan, so as to help Wei Yan make some military exploits, firstly, Liu Feng has very rich combat experience, after all, it is not a short time to follow Liu Bei, he can be alone, although Wei Yan can, but he is too radical, Liu Yi is somewhat similar to Zhuge Liang in this regard, and he is not willing to be greedy for merit, on the other hand, it can be regarded as selling personal favors to Liu Bei, after all, according to the intimacy, Liu Feng has feelings for Liu Bei in the end, of course, there is also the meaning of avoiding suspicion, Wei Yan is from Mocheng no matter what, he is from Mocheng, He couldn't let Liu Bei feel that he wanted to pull the mountain under the other party.

Regardless of whether Liu Bei has this idea or not, Liu Yi must show his attitude.

As for not having to close the flat...... It's not that Liu Yi has any opinions about Guan Ping, it's just that Guan Ping is too well-behaved, maybe some people think it's a good thing to be well-behaved, but as a general, being too well-behaved means having no opinions, which may also be the sadness of the second generation, the talent is not bad, but the aura of the fathers is too dazzling, which wears out their personality, at least in Liu Yi's opinion, Guan Ping is not enough to be in charge at present.

Liu Feng's eyes lit up, and he arched his hand at Liu Yi and said, "Seal the order!" ”

Liu Yi summoned Guan Ping and asked him to hand over the remaining soldiers and horses brought from Liu Bei to Liu Feng, and let Liu Feng take them to recover the remaining five counties of Changsha, while Liu Yi continued to set up camp, and was not in a hurry to attack the city or go outside the city to call for battle.

Barracks with excellent architecture: Morale +26, Stamina +28, Military Prestige +27, Comfort +29, Military Order +27

With so many overall attributes, the longer the time drags on, the more beneficial it will be to Liu Yi, the important thing can be delayed for a month or two, these soldiers here can definitely catch up with the soldiers and horses brought from Liu Bei, plus the six counties in hand now provide a steady stream of supplies, and the supply line is not too short, what Liu Yi has to do now is not to rush to attack the city, but to deal with the logistics problem, which city is responsible for supply, how much supply, how long it will take to deliver the supply, and there is room for error in the middle.

Liu Yi felt that it was absolutely no problem for him to be a logistics officer now.

Compared with Liu Yi, Linxiang City is not so leisurely, although Liu Yi did not wave his troops to attack the city, but for Han Xuan, he would rather Liu Yi directly wave his troops to attack.

What is more terrible than death in the world? That's waiting for death!

"What are the enemy doing?" Han Xuan paced back and forth in the Taishou Mansion, suddenly turned his head, looked at the civil and military forces in the city, frowned, and said, "It's been three days, why don't you come to attack yet." ”

This question was a little funny, as if I wished that someone would come to fight, but the generals in the hall couldn't laugh, they had the same feeling.

"Fujun!" At this moment, a veteran with a helmet and armor walked in from outside the door, and bowed to Han Xuan.

"Hansheng, how is the inquiry?" Seeing someone coming, Han Xuan hurriedly stepped forward and said.

Liu Yi only stationed troops in the north of the city, and did not besiege the city to death, so he was still able to send scouts to listen to the intelligence of all parties, at this moment the veteran said with a somewhat ugly face: "The sentinel who has just sent to listen to the news has returned, then Liu Bei's army has divided a group of men and horses, and is attacking other cities, Xiangnan has fallen, Yiyang is afraid that he will not be able to hold it, looking at the opponent's posture, it is clear that he wants to drag our army here, and there are not many soldiers and horses stationed in the three cities of Rongling, Chaling, and Youxian, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to escape being captured by the other party. ”

When Han Xuan heard this, he knelt down silently and said bitterly: "I finally know why Liu Bei's soldiers and horses have not attacked for a long time, if there are eleven cities in the twelve counties of Changsha, and only one city in Linxiang is left, how can I defend it?" ”

"Why should the prince worry!" The veteran said loudly: "Now the three cities of Rongling, Chaling, and Youxian are still in my hands, and they may not have the strength to fight!" ”

When Han Xuan heard this, his eyes lit up, and he looked at the veteran and said, "What is Hansheng's plan?" ”

"The king of the palace will order his troops out of the city tomorrow, go to the camp of the thief army to fight, and deceive the master of the thief army, and finally shoot him with a strong bow and kill him with an arrow, why worry that the thief army will not be chaotic? As long as the thief army is in chaos, the siege of Changsha will be solved! The veteran laughed loudly.

The veteran is Huang Zhong, not only excellent martial arts, skilled in the art of war, but also has an amazing archery skill, a hundred steps through Yang, the arrow is not missing, the generals in the hall heard this, but also praised Huang Zhong This plan is quite feasible.

Han Xuan had no choice at the moment, and immediately agreed: "According to Han Sheng's plan, all the generals will gather their men and horses, and follow me out of the city tomorrow to fight!" ”

"Whoa!" When the generals heard this, they responded in unison, and each went back to count the troops and horses without mentioning it.

Early the next morning, Han Xuan put on his armor, hung a sword at his waist, and under the escort of a group of generals, when he went to fight in front of Liu Yi's camp, Liu Yi was still studying his Quyuan plow, and now without Liu Bei chattering in front of him, Liu Yi was finally able to put down his mind and engage in his own research.

"What's going on outside?" Liu Yi has no experience in leading troops to fight, and these things are also handed over to people who can lead troops on weekdays, so he is a little unclear at the moment.

"Sir, then Han Xuan took the initiative to go out of the city and come to the front of the wall to fight." Wei Yan bowed.

"Who is leading the troops?" Liu Yi asked.

"It's that Taishou Han Xuan!" Wei Yan smiled: "Sir, are we going to send troops?" ”

Han Xuan?

Liu Yi frowned and said, "How many soldiers and horses does he have, so he dares to come here to fight?" ”

According to Liu Yi's plan, Liu Feng swept the five cities, and if it went well, it would take a month, and in this month's time, Liu Yi didn't think about paying attention to Han Xuan at all.

"Eight hundred."

"How much?" Liu Yi raised his eyebrows and looked at Wei Yan with a look of surprise, he wondered if he had heard it wrong.

"The last general has taken a closer look, it is indeed eight hundred, and besides, in this Linxiang City, I am afraid there are not many defenders." Wei Yan smiled bitterly, he didn't believe it at first.

Liu Yi sneered: "Eight hundred people will come to break the camp, if I say that there is no fraud in it, Wen Chang and Tanzhi, do you believe it?" ”

Even if Han Xuan was an overlord reborn, it would be impossible for him to be brain-dead enough to take 800 people to attack the camp of 5,000 people, even if he divided some of them, in fact, there were only about 3,000 people, but this number was also four times that of the other party.

"The last general thinks the same, but there is a flat river in front of the city, even if there are woods on both sides to ambush the soldiers, our army has enough time to react, I really don't know what the other party means?" Wei Yan nodded.

Liu Yi narrowed his eyes, he knew that in this Changsha City, there was a top sniper in the Three Kingdoms period, maybe it was the idea to fight.

If this is the case, he will not be able to show his face, and after thinking about it, he said: "Tanzhi, three knives!" ”

"The last general!" Guan Ping and Liu Sandao hurriedly intervened.

"You two each take 500 soldiers and horses, go out from the east and west gates, sneak into the woods, go around behind the enemy, kill when you see the enemy retreating, don't care about anything else, if Han Xuan is not dead, capture and kill Han Xuan first!" Liu Yi looked at Guan Ping and Liu Sandaodao.

"Whoa!" The two received the order and left separately.

Liu Yi looked at Wei Yan again and smiled, "Wen Chang, how are your archery skills?" ”

"This ......," Wei Yan thought for a moment and said, "The last general's archery skills are acceptable." ”

"Later, I will have someone wear my armor to answer the question, try to lure that Han Xuan out, you bring a few more crossbowmen who are proficient in archery, and once Han Xuan appears, shoot immediately." Liu Yi said with a smile.

"Whoa!"

It doesn't matter if Han Xuan has the idea of fighting or not, but since there is such a rare opportunity, Liu Yi will naturally not let it go.
