215 reduce troops and increase the number of foci
Zhu and others retreated to the camp, checked the battle damage, and lost more than 10,000 people, half of whom were Qiang soldiers, and the generals Li Wenhua and Pang were wounded and had no strength to fight again, and Wang Gui and Handan Shang died.
Zhu sighed, "There are too many strongmen under Cheng Wenying's command, and after that, we will fight, no more fighting, everything is aimed at defeating and preserving ourselves, do you understand?" ”
Several people nodded silently, especially Zhang Meng, he has been fighting with Handan Shang for more than ten years and nearly twenty years, although he hates him to the core, and wants to kill him quickly, but he died in the hands of others, it still doesn't seem real, what did Handan Shang take to fight with himself for so many years? Isn't it a martial arts military ability that matches your own? Now that Handan Shang is so dead, don't you need to pay more attention?
For several days, Cheng Yun personally led people to the gate of Zhu Ying to call the battle, he was polite at first, but he became more and more impatient later, what kind of reputation is this Zhu Gongwei, he doesn't even have the courage to come out to fight?
If you want to be angry, Zhu must be angry, the polite scolding in front is good, the more you go to the back, the more ugly it is, sometimes he is so angry that he has to learn from Cao Cao to commit migraines, but he still endures, although the whole army presses him with confidence to win, but the loss is too great, and he is afraid that Cheng Yun will engage in beheading tactics, you know, what the army must have is to lead the army commander, once the main general dies, no matter how powerful the army will fall apart in a moment.
So thinking about it, you shouldn't face Cheng Yun head-on, you should surprise Cheng Yun, this is the best.
But how difficult it is to get Yin to Cheng Yun, not to mention that Cheng Yunka occupies a favorable location at the junction of Sili Yongliang at Caisangjin Hushan Pass, let's just say that the four strategists under his command, one is better than the other, and there is no problem in fighting them in terms of military formation, but it is even more difficult to say that it is even more difficult to design Yin to them.
Yin Xun frowned and pondered, "Now that we are not in a good position to engage the traitor Cheng Yun, it is better to turn south to Liangshan, cross Liangshan Mountain and enter Xiayang." After entering Xiayang in the east, we have three strategies for the lord to choose. ”
"Huh?" Zhu looked at Xia Yang on the map, "There must be one of your three strategies to cross the river and capture Fenyin." ”
Yin Xun nodded, "The next strategy is to occupy Fenyin before Cheng Wenying and the others, and then take every step to rescue Hedong County from Cheng Wenying's men." The middle policy is to go south to Fenglingdu, cross the big river and go straight to Hongnong. As for the best policy, you can Tunshui in Xiayang, give Fenyin to Cheng Wenying to garrison, and then dig the embankment to break the city, and it will be decided in a battle! ”
Zhu directly rejected the above strategy, "Let's not talk about whether Cheng Wenying will find out about the water in Xiayang, let's just say that the plan to flood the city will definitely cause too many casualties to the civilians in the city, and the fields outside the city will also be damaged, this plan is not advisable." ”
Ignoring Yin Xun's benevolent and righteous flattery, Zhu thought about it again, "It's an idea to occupy Fenyin, but if we occupy Fenyin and are besieged by Cheng Wenying and his reinforcements from Luoyang, we."
We have to sit back and wait, this is a very dangerous plan, and we can't take such a risk. ”
Yin Xun smiled, but all the upper, middle and lower three policies, are given to a policy that is not well implemented, and a very ruthless and radical but not easy to succeed policy, used to highlight the excellence of the policy, this suggestion, I feel that the policy can be implemented!
But I didn't expect Hu Wuban to interject in a rare way, "We can take Hongnong directly, and we don't even need to take Hongnong with too much effort, but... What should we do with our grain road that takes Hongnong? Hongnong and our Liangzhou are no longer bordering, if we are cleared by the wall, there will be no chance to resist, on the surface the plan is very good, but the follow-up is fatal. ”
Yin Xun's eyes narrowed, "Oh? Ji You's words are always serious, I think what he said is very reasonable, I think Ji You should have a better plan, it is better to say it and listen to it, let us also learn to have a follow-up plan. ”
Hu Wuban has passed the age of competing for a high position, turning a deaf ear to Yin Xun's provocation, squinting his eyes and lowering his head, pretending that nothing has happened, and the corners of Zhu's mouth twitched, okay, there was no quarrel after all.
Wang Yan coughed, everyone looked at him, he never talked much, but today he made a suggestion, which made everyone's hearts move slightly, a little surprised, "In my humble opinion, we might as well go south first, and after arriving in Xiayang, we will cross Luoshui to the west and attack Gaoling." ”
Zhu's eyes shrank, and he was overjoyed, "Wen Zhao is really my lucky star, go to Sanfu to meet Ma Shoucheng's team, take Sanfu first, and then attack Hongnong together, we don't have to worry about the problem of the back road, we can also replenish our troops and crush Cheng Wenying!" Good strategy! ”
Wang Yan glanced at Yin Xun, Yin Xun's eyes were really staring at him, he smiled, didn't say much, continued to be a quail, and knelt down honestly.
Zhao Bao muttered, "It's easy for us to go south, but what will Cheng Wenying's troops do?" Will it affect us? Do we find a way to confuse them, or do we just swagger south? ”
Zhang Meng was strange, "We must hide it from Cheng Wenying when we go south, otherwise Cheng Wenying will definitely be entangled." ”
Zhao Bao shook his head, "There are pros and cons, and we need to discuss it again." If we go south directly, Cheng Wen should chase him, we can ambush, if not, it will be better for us to hide from him, otherwise we will just expose ourselves in front of their eyes, according to what Shuwei saw, should Cheng Wen chase or not? ”
Zhang Meng pondered, Zhu shook his head, "I won't chase, last time they injured a Huaxiong Hua Zijian, how dare they still chase our team, just worry about whether they will guess our thoughts, what is the way to crack it, but if we drag them and let them know the time of our retreat later, even if we have a thousand schemes, how can we help us who have already taken down Sanfu and joined Ma Shoucheng and others?" ”
Yin Xun nodded, "Since the lord has decided to go south, let's think of ideas to confuse them." Cheng Wen should be cautious in doing things, he should be trapped by the fog we arranged, and it is possible to delay for a few days. ”
Pang coughed, "We let the soldiers go out during the day, and then half of these people who go out will stay outside first, and the other half will come back, so that we can slowly send people out." As for the camp, as long as we still have so much cooking smoke for cooking, the other side will definitely think that we have chosen to do so in order to lure them into battle, and a large number of people who go out can carry out our plan first, and in the end, the rest of the broken ones must be delayed long enough to wait until a few days later to catch up with the large army. ”
Yin Xun nodded, although Pang was physically injured, his brain was still easy to use, this strategy was a flexible version of the plan to reduce troops and increase the stove, which was suitable for use on this occasion, Hu Wuban also felt good, "Lord, this plan is feasible." ”
Zhu nodded, "Then it's decided, we will first let Weihao and Shuwei take some soldiers out on the first day, and when Weihao brings back half of them in the evening, Shuwei will start to go south, go to the south and wait for us, let's first observe whether the next day's cooking smoke can confuse them and then see if the strategy should continue to be used." ”
The two of them received the order, and Zhu thought about it again, "If the plan can deceive them, and I hope that Weihao will help cut off the queen, and send the rest of our subordinates to the south first, after the break, this kind of thing, I still believe in your emergency ability, you must get rid of Cheng Wenying's entanglement and catch up with us." ”
Zhao Bao nodded, "Don't worry, my lord, leave this matter to me, and I will definitely bring my subordinate brothers to join the army." ”
Glancing around at the generals, Zhu nodded, "Next, our goal is to defeat Zhang Boshen's three assistants who lead people to defend, this is also a tough battle, I hope you will contribute more!" Gonghe, culture, you two are not in good health, just withdraw to our Xiliang first, if you want to help us, just ensure that our food goodbye is cut off by Cheng Wenying. ”
Pang was never reckless, nodded, his internal organs were injured, and he couldn't withstand the toss, so he could only go back to Liangzhou to recuperate first, but Li Wenhua was unwilling, he couldn't do enough, and the benefits would not fall on him much in the future, and he wanted to struggle, "I can persevere." ”
Zhu glared at him, "The grain road is actually more important, the so-called soldiers and horses go first before the grain and grass are moved, let you guard the grain road, you can take care of the grain and you, understand?" ”
Li Wenhua knew that Zhu was worried about his body, and the more grateful he was, the more he wanted to fight for him, and even more for the greater welfare of his clan, but he really couldn't find any reason to refuse, so he could only sigh, "Then let the soldiers under my command fight with the lord!" ”
Zhu happily agreed, and Li Wenhua didn't say anything more, and followed Pang to pack his things.
