Chapter 124: Eight-sided Exquisite Sima Wen
As early as before, Lu Chen's original intention was to adopt Su Muzhi's strategy, and after capturing Wuyang County, he would annihilate Yuan Hui, and then induce all of Ding Rui's troops to come to suppress it, but in fact, he sent a surprise army to attack Fengzhou.
However, the battle situation is changing rapidly, and no one expected that Guanshan County would produce a Liu Yuan, and Guanshan County's defection is not just a difference between a county, but this county has made a qualitative change in the general trend of the entire Wind Country, and it also made Ding Rui's side start to review the strength of both sides again, and then changed from the state of sending troops to suppress to defending.
Therefore, if Lu Chen wants to attack the entire Wind Country, there is no second way to go now, he can only pull out the two nails of Nanyang and Longshan in front of him.
In the big tent of the Chinese army, after receiving Tang Man's urgent report, Lu Chen also immediately convened the generals to discuss the matter. At this time, all the important people under Lu Chen were also present.
After everyone arrived, Lu Chen first told him about the military situation in front of him, then looked around and said straight to the point:
"Now, Ding Rui's intention is obvious, trying to use 200,000 Zhang soldiers to go out of Longshan, and coordinate with Nanyang County to prevent our army from continuing to move south."
When everyone heard this, their brows were furrowed, and Xue Huairen was the first to speak: "My lord, now that 200,000 Zhang troops are participating in the war, and Ding Rui is an old thief, and there are still 400,000 central troops in the capital that have not been mobilized, then our army should immediately recruit soldiers again, and with more than 400,000 troops, we can continue to move south." ”
As soon as Xue Huairen's words fell, Li Miaocai immediately continued: "That's right, lord, when we gather 400,000 troops, we can first send a legion to contain the Zhang army, and the main force of our army is to direct the spearhead to Daoyang, open a gap from Nanyang County, and attack the capital in one fell swoop!" ”
"In this way, it is good to say that the lord is now famous all over the world, and our army is a rebellious king, as long as he raises his arms, with the current land of the three counties, it only takes a few days to raise 200,000 soldiers and horses! However, the key issue is that it is not a short-term task to complete the training of this group of new troops. Liu Yuan said.
Hearing him talk about time, Li Miaocai said: "Mr. Liu Yuan is too worried, at the beginning of the banner raising, the lord did not have more than 100,000 soldiers, and he only ruled a county. But at present, the lord has ruled the three counties, more than 7 million people under his jurisdiction, soldiers, horses, money and food, inexhaustible, time is now more conducive to development for us, not conducive to Ding thief. ”
"I am also in favor of recuperating for half a year, so as to strengthen the army and prepare for war." Xue Huairen seconded.
The suggestion of the two of them was not wrong, if they attacked the entire Wind Country according to one board and one glance, this approach would undoubtedly be the best, but this was not the answer that Lu Chen wanted.
He doesn't take any opinion, but has his own set of criteria.
Now it is not to discuss the tactics of how to fight, but to discuss their next policy, on this, the generals do not express their opinions, this is normal, but now the three important civil officials under Lu Chen have all expressed their ideas, but only one Sima Wen has not opened his mouth to speak!
This isn't like this guy's usual style!
Thinking of this, Lu Chen couldn't help but sweep his gaze to Sima Wen, but found that the latter was slightly closed his eyes at this time, hanging his head there and pretending to sleep.
"Sima Wen, Sima Wen! Hey! Asleep!? ”
"Huh!?" Sima Wen really seemed to have just been woken up, his body shook, and he hurriedly arched his hand and said, "The lord called me?" ”
"If you're too tired, why don't I let someone bring in a wicker chair for Mr. Sima to rest?" Lu Chen said strangely.
"Huh? It's not necessary, the lord is too embarrassed. ”
Sima Wen said without blushing and panting: "It was last night, I couldn't bear the loneliness and went to the newly opened drunken green building in the city, so that I couldn't sleep in the middle of the night and didn't get enough sleep. ”
The drunken Qinglou in his mouth, which was a newly opened brothel in Shunzhou, everyone in the tent heard this, they all covered their mouths with their hands, their shoulders shrugged, and they forced their laughter when they wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh, Tang Man spat with a red face: "Indecent!" ”
And hearing him say this, Lu Chen also said angrily and funny: "Our army's military situation is urgent, and Mr. Sima Wen is at ease." ”
His words sounded like he was blaming Sima Wen, but in fact, it was not like that at all. Sima Wen is such a shrewd person, how can he not hear it, and since this period of time, as far as he understands Lu Chen, the latter is indeed worthy of the word male master, Sima Wen also knows very well what kind of master Lu Chen is, that is: if you can use its strengths, you will be able to tolerate its shortcomings.
How is Sima Wen's private life, whether he goes to the Qinglou or not, Lu Chen is too lazy to care about these! As a strategist, what Lu Chen wants is his strategy and analysis of some major matters, and he wants him to be able to give him excellent advice and reminders, rather than caring which woman Sima Wen slept with last night.
However, even though he knew that Lu Chen was not really blaming himself, Sima Wen still pretended to be frightened, and hurriedly said: "Don't blame the lord, I just don't know, how is the Ding Rui rebel army deployed now?" ”
Lu Chen told the general situation again, and Sima Wen nodded as if he suddenly realized, and then immediately said again:
"In the next thought, the lord should send two generals, respectively, to command 100,000 troops, separate attacks on Nanyang and Longshan, at the same time, the lord is sitting in the rear, with the land of three counties, recruit new soldiers, when the lord's new army is trained, then Nanyang and Longshan should almost be broken, at that time, the lord can gather all the troops, personally lead the army, and then break through Fengzhou in one fell swoop!"
Yo! Hearing his strategy, Lu Chen's eyes couldn't help but light up! This is the advice I really want to hear!
He stood up, looked around, and asked symbolically: "Do you have any objections to Sima Wen's suggestion?" ”
Li Miaocai muttered: "Mr. Sima's strategy is good, it's just that there are 100,000 central troops stationed in Nanyang County, and there are 200,000 Zhang troops in Longshan......
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Wang and Su Muzhi stood up together, and the two of them intervened almost at the same time and said:
"The last general is willing to lead the army to capture Nanyang (Longshan)!"
Even if they don't stand up, then Lu Chen must be the two of them as generals, and at this time, the two of them each asked for help and captured different places respectively, which is really good!
When Lu Chen heard this, he immediately stopped hesitating, and immediately shouted:
"Xiao Wang listens to the order! Let you lead an army of 100,000 to capture Nanyang County! ”
"Su Muzhi listens to the order! Let you lead an army of 100,000 to capture Longshan! ”
