Chapter 62: Decision-making
"We have a great numerical disadvantage, whether it is a team that attracts the attention of the other party or a team that sneaks up on the grain road, as long as there is any mistake, it will cause incalculable consequences." Li Zuoche groaned and said.
"So what?" Bao Hong smiled and said that Yan Ying and Tian Qi had just been resurrected after all, and they were not familiar with many things, so Bao Hong's main consultation was Li Zuoche. Since Li Zuoche is willing to speak, it is undoubtedly a good phenomenon.
"Therefore, if I can simply surround Wei to save Zhao, I must carry out all kinds of feints, so that he is confused and does not dare to rush out, and it will be easier for us to block the grain road at that time." Li Zuoche said with a smile.
"But if we make a feint attack many times, making the other party a frightened bird, and we can't figure out our purpose, will we make the other party a frightened bird, and we will attack with all our strength at the slightest disturbance?" Bao Hong couldn't help but ask when he heard Li Zuoche's strategy.
The constant feints make the opponent nervous, taking advantage of the other party's habit of thunder and rain and small feints, when they are unprepared. It is also to launch a real offensive when the opponent thinks it is the most unlikely, and annihilate the enemy in one fell swoop.
Of course, this is a tired tactic, and now the difference in strength between the two sides is too large, and a few feints may be interfered with by the other side due to lack of preparation. To sustain it, the enemy is strong enough to masse forces and treat each feint as a formal attack. Anyway, they are just a large number of people, and there will be no exhaustion and slackness in batches of rotations.
Even because of this, Fan Chongjia sent troops to guard the grain road, wouldn't it be counterproductive?
"The general is too worried." Li Zuoche said with a smile, "Although this Fan Chong is not a figure I know, I have also learned about this person's deeds in all aspects. Although this person can be described as brave and good at fighting and full of strategy, he has no ambition and is small and rich. ”
"Wang Mang's new dynasty of Han began Xinmang's brutal rule. He implemented a series of so-called "New Deals", coupled with years of wars and frequent famines. caused "great hunger on the edge of the border, cannibalism". Wang Mang's tyranny led to the outbreak of a peasant uprising. Li Zuoche and Bao Hong analyzed, "And Fan Chong launched the uprising only after the Lumu Uprising and the Green Forest Uprising." It can be seen that this person will not make a move at all, but will force him to break out when he can't go on. ”
Then, Wang Mang's new dynasty fell, and the first emperor Liu Xuan ascended the throne with the support of the Green Forest Army and moved the capital to Luoyang. Liu Xuan sent an envoy to surrender Fan Chong and the Red Eyebrow Army. Fan Chong expressed his attachment to the change of the original regime, and was enthroned as a marquis in Luoyang with more than 20 leaders of the Red Mei Army. Li Zuoche continued, "This behavior undoubtedly proves his character problems in this regard. If you can get by, accept the surrender. Never took the initiative to do something. ”
Of course, with the consolidation of the regime, Liu Xuan began to betray the peasant rebel army that supported him as emperor, and sent troops to attack the rear of the Red Mei Army, and Fan Chongsui broke with Liu Xuan's regime. He decided to set up the 15-year-old Liu Penzi of the Han clan as the emperor and called himself the founder of the world. Fan Chong was appointed as the imperial historian. In September of the same year, the Red Mei Army captured Chang'an, overthrew Liu Xuan's regime, executed Liu Xuan, and Liu Penzi entered Changle Palace. Fan Chong led an army of one million to guard the streets and alleys of Chang'an. For a time, the soldiers rejoiced, the people were inspired, and everywhere there was a scene of peace. ”
"It's because I'm forced to resist. That's when they broke out. Li Zuoche sneered, "This kind of person who is unwilling to move if he has a stable life has no awareness of being prepared for danger in times of peace." Even the comfortable life on the tip of the knife can't be perceived, and you have to wait until the poor dagger sees it before you rise up to resist! ”
Bao Hong nodded. After all, normal people are inert. If you can enjoy yourself, who is happy to work hard.
The most familiar example is Lin Chong, the head of the 800,000 forbidden army of the Water Margin.
When he was the head of the 800,000 forbidden army in the imperial court, he knew that the lady was molested. is also forbearance, and was designed to hold a treasure knife into the White Tiger Hall by mistake, and was framed and stabbed with Cangzhou, or forbearance. In the wild boar forest, he was almost killed by Dong Chao and Xue Ba, and after going to Cangzhou Prison City to guard the Tianwang Hall, he was set on fire by Lu Qian and Fu'an when he was guarding the forage field. Only then did he explode, angrily killing Lu Qian and others, and staged a wonderful plot of going to Liangshan on a snowy night.
But this did not really make Lin Chong completely transformed, to Liangshan, because of the jealousy has not been reused by the owner of the village, Wang Lun, first asked Lin Chong to accept the name, and saw that Lin Chong did not accept the name on the first day, and actually wanted to ask the pawn for some food, Bao Hong was indignant at first.
Not to mention that because of the inseparability between the petition and Yang Zhi, when Wang Lun came forward to negotiate, Yang Zhi, who was dedicated to being an official at the time, didn't even have a word of luck after Wang Lun introduced Lin Chong, and he didn't have any sympathy at all. completely looks down on this former head of the forbidden army. changed to other heroes, and he had to fight to the death with Yang Zhi every minute, but Lin Chong still endured it.
In the end, when Chao Gai waited for the mountain to join the gang, Wang Lun refused again, Lin Chong still had to continue to endure it, but in the end, it was under Wu Yong's wisdom that it broke out completely, and Wang Lun killed him.
This is fundamentally determined by a person's personality. People with an introverted temperament will not have too much aggressiveness in their style of acting, and they will not be very aggressive.
On the contrary, Bao Hong also knows that it is a more famous character, and the unique overlord Xiang Yu is the kind of person who has had great ambitions since he was a child and belongs to another type entirely.
Qin Shi Huang went to Huiji to play, drove a big boat to Zhejiang, Xiang Yu and Xiang Liang watched together, Xiang Yu said to Xiang Liang: "Qin Shi Huang can be replaced." Xiang Liang covered Xiang Yu's mouth and said, "Don't talk nonsense, otherwise it will bring disaster to the whole clan." Xiang Liang therefore looked at Xiang Yu differently.
These two styles of people can't say who is good and who is bad, in the case of a stable structure, if you can give the former a stable environment to play, you can play a huge role, and if the latter is restless and restless, it is inevitable that he will be the kind of guy who uses force to prohibit him.
However, if it is a troubled time, one is active and the other is passive, then the result is completely different.
According to Li Zuoche's analysis, Fan Chong is also the kind of person who responds passively, but whenever he is in a slightly comfortable environment, there is basically not much time to take the initiative to attack.
Therefore, this kind of person, in the face of the strategy Li Zuoche said, is very unlikely to take the initiative to attack, or scatter to encircle and suppress Bao Hong's army, and more will choose to defend passively. Anyway, there are many others, and it doesn't matter to him if you make a small fuss, as long as you grasp the key point.
And Li Zuoche's meaning is to carry out all kinds of disturbances, so that Fan Chong can't find the location of this key point.
Is it to lure the snake out of the hole and sneak attack Runan, or to contain them and sneak attack the grain road, or simply to contain them and then directly lead the army to the north, and not confront them here.
made all kinds of illusions, so that Fan Chong was confused, and finally let the plan be implemented smoothly. (To be continued.) )
