"Our army is short of food and grass, and it is difficult to hold it for a long time, even if the White Wave thieves have no fighting spirit, and it is difficult for our army to match the victorious division, but as long as they are like before, they only need to guerrilla and wander as before, or go north to Taiyuan, or go west to the West River, and retreat into advance, and it is difficult for our army to win a complete victory, and it will fall into a stalemate. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo”

Although there is no specific map of the counties and counties on the case, Xu Huang is familiar with the geography of the north, and he dotted a few times on the northwest and north sides of the map, pointing out the direction in which the Bai Bo army may continue to flee.

Yan Xing looked at the west and north sides and nodded. The Baibo Army was originally a rogue who rose in the Baibo Valley and wandered in the lands of Hedong, Hebei and Hedong, and then slowly grew stronger before returning to his hometown in Hedong to conquer the city.

Now, Guo Tai and other white wave thieves were injured in the land east of the river, and the vitality was damaged a lot, and it is very likely that the old trick will be repeated, and after the counties in the north are looted, they will continue to flee north, and flow to Taiyuan and other places in the north and state, plundering the good horses in the border areas, coercing the fleeing refugees, regaining strength, recovering vitality, and then returning to Hedong to compete with the Dong army.

Although the Dong army regained Pingyang, Yangxian, Yong'an and other places in the north, but the grain and grass were insufficient, and in the face of the plundered counties, they could only sigh in vain, and naturally they were unable to pursue again, while the Baibo army that had entered Bingzhou could fight back anytime and anywhere.

"If you can't resist if you advance, you will lose your prestige if you retreat, so you will have to trap the army between these counties in the north!"

When Xu Huang said this, he stretched out his finger and drew a large circle on several county towns north of Hedong County on the map, and then clicked heavily on the center of the circle.

After listening to Xu Huang's final summary, everyone looked pensive, looked at the map and did not speak.

Yan Xing looked at Ma Lin, who had changed from happy at the beginning to solemn, and asked with a smile:

"Gongshi, after listening to Gongming's words, do you think you have to continue to attack?"

"Attack, naturally attack, but also to strangle the army to fight!"

Ma Lin, who had a solemn face, blurted out without thinking in the face of Yan Xing's inquiry.

"Oh, why?"

"Since, as Gongming said, our army is short of food and grass, and the thieves have the intention of fleeing, then we should take advantage of the situation to chase after it, select the elite in the army, the elite soldiers, and drive straight forward, if we can kill Guo Tai and other Baibo thieves, we will already win this battle, even if there are other rogues scattered around, there will be no big trouble!"

Ma Lin said that when he was excited, his spit flew sideways, and he also followed Xu Huang to dot a few dots on the map, as if he personally led the elite, drove straight in, and the white wave thief who was too late to escape in the future was annihilated in one fell swoop.

After Yan Xing listened to Ma Lin's words, he disagreed, shook his head and said:

"Although our army is short of food and grass, but it is not without food, and although the White Wave thieves are defeated, they are not without the strength of a battle, the Hun cavalry is fierce, our army only selects the elite, and the lone army drives deep, I am afraid it is not a good strategy. It is better to be strong, show weakness to the enemy, and make a confrontation situation. The White Wave Thieves are mostly greedy for money, how can they be willing to easily abandon these beaten counties, so that they can light the enemy and slacken, and the grain and grass in the rear of our army will arrive, and then march in a big way, to rectify the chaos, to attack the labor, will be able to break the White Wave Thieves! ”

Yan Xing's strategy was exactly the opposite of Ma Lin's, Ma Lin valued the urgent battle, and Yan Xing focused on delaying the war. Yan Xing usually did not contain the situation that his subordinates had seen, and the two were about to argue, but at this time Gan Ling also interjected, and he pointed to the county seat north of Hedong County on the map and said:

"Urgent battle, slow war, each has its own reason, but in addition to the land east of the river, this battle also has the counties and counties in the north, if the state can send a force to hold the mountains and rivers of the white wave thieves who fled north into Taiyuan County, these white wave thieves are trapped in this corner of the land even if there are many people, and then our army can slow down and hurry, and win the momentum!"

After the three of them finished their respective speeches, coupled with Xu Huang's previous geographical analysis, the situation of the confrontation between the north and the south of the enemy and us, after the concerted efforts of everyone, was actually pointed out most of it.

Zhou Liang touched the sparse short beard under his chin, and listened to everyone talk about the battle situation in Hedong, and then suddenly asked:

"Wait, since our army is going to march north today, but I don't know where to use the soldiers and horses as the vanguard?"

This is also a very important issue, at the moment Dong Jun and the Bai Bo Army are facing each other in the north and south of Hedong, if you want to break the situation, this forward must be elite enough to be able to take advantage of the victory to break the Bai Bo Army and the Hun coalition army that still has an advantage in numbers.

However, after hearing this time, Yan Xing shook his head in a rare way and said:

"I don't know about this, I'm only afraid of the striker candidate, and now in the army, only Niu Zhonglang knows about it!"

After speaking, Yan Xing also smiled slightly and added:

"However, I heard that Niu Zhonglang will break the enemy's heart, maybe even this striker will have to go into battle in person again!"

"This, it's too risky, even if you march north, the master of the hall will go into battle in person?"

Ma Lin heard that Niu Zhonglang in this army was going to go into battle again, and couldn't help but smack his tongue and exclaimed, in his opinion, this Niu Zhonglang was frustrated in the previous attack, and was besieged in Linfen City by thieves, unable to move, or thanks to their foreign soldiers, fighting bloody battles, only to relieve the siege of Linfen, and now he has to risk himself to march, so he thinks that he has the protection of the gods, and he can turn evil into good fortune every time.

Gan Ling, Xu Huang and the others looked at each other, and also felt that if it was as Yan Xing said, then Niu Fu, who made this decision, would be too eager and arrogant, but they were all stable people, and the news in front of them had not been confirmed, and they were not good at criticizing the general in private.

Yan Xing can understand some of Niu Fu's mood at the moment, now the situation in Luoyang City is treacherous, the war in the land of Hedong has been given great hope by Dong Zhuo, Niu Fu has already lost a battle before, if he can't get other achievements, and sit back and watch the confrontation Bai Bo army withdraw, then his position as the main general of Hedong will really come to an end.

Moreover, in addition to this, Yan Xing also heard another piece of news about Niu Fu's decision to personally lead his troops north to attack the Baibo Army.

"Yuan Shan, this Niu Zhonglang still has a shrine maiden in the camp?"

Yan Xing looked at Zhou Liang, and when it came to the complicated situation in the Dong camp, he had to know a lot about him, an old official in the army.

Zhou Liang nodded when he heard this, and said:

"Niu Zhonglang will worship divination, in the past, when he was still under the command of Taiwei, all the big and small things were decided by Taiwei and Master Li, and now the war in Hedong is decided by Niu Zhonglang alone, I am afraid that there will be omissions, so I borrow the power of ghosts and gods."

"The army has its own laws, and you can't bring women into the camp privately, which is too much."

Not long after Xu Huang first entered the Dong Army, he didn't know the bad deeds of many Dong Army soldiers, and at this moment he heard that Niu Fugui was a Zhonglang general, and he actually used Wu Bu to make decisions with the help of Wu Bu, so he couldn't help frowning and said,

Zhou Liang glanced at Xu Huang and knew that Yan Xing attached great importance to this newly invested military official, and did not dare to despise the other party, so he also said:

"Xu Jun said this very much, speaking of which, the generals and soldiers in the army also have a lot of words about this, but it is said that these witches do have their own magical powers, and they can get the help of ghosts and gods, and even those young witches, all of them are extremely gorgeous, but Niu Zhonglang will be inseparable from these people for a while!"

After speaking, Zhou Liang's words had become a little ambiguous, and Gan Ling, Ma Lin and others also heard his meaning, and they also laughed.

Ma Lin, who had come back to taste, held back his black face, and said to Xu Huang with a smile:

"Speaking of which, this witch divination, I have seen a lot in the land of Liangzhou, every time those Qianghu attack and invade, the sorcerers in the tribe must first worship the ghosts and ancestors with the blood of cattle and sheep, and ask for blessings and misfortunes with divination, and then they can gather the tribesmen to send troops."

Ma Lin originally wanted to tell Xu Huang about the march and battle, with the help of the power of witches and ghosts, it was an ordinary thing, and he, Gan Ling, and Yan Xing were all people from the borderlands, and they were used to seeing these witches, so they were no longer strange.

After listening to Ma Lin's words, Xu Huang shook his head and disagreed, he said solemnly:

"Brother Gongshi's words are wrong, and it is a major matter of the soldier country. The land of death and life, the way of survival, must not be overlooked. Wouldn't it be ridiculous if we allowed such witches to run rampant in the army, use troops at every event, ask ghosts and gods when advancing and retreating, and put the lives of the soldiers in the hands of these witches! ”

In the face of Xu Huang's rebuttal, Ma Lin was not angry, but he couldn't agree with Xu Huang's attitude of contemptuous of ghosts and gods, so he also said with a straight face:

"Gongming, I can't agree with what you say, although my old Lin Bingshu doesn't read as much as you, but when this battle formation, I still know a lot, in ancient times, Chi You and the Yellow Emperor fought in the field of Jizhou, Chi You used the wind and rain division, the Yellow Emperor first invited Ying Long, and then Feng Tiannu, the Queen of Heaven, in order to defeat Chi You, and the Yellow Emperor and the Yan Emperor, the Yellow Emperor also drove the power of the tiger and the leopard, in order to defeat the Yan Emperor. How can you say that this witch and spirit is useless in military affairs? ”

Hearing that Ma Lin had brought out the two battles of the ancient Yellow Emperor, Emperor Yan, and Chi You, Zhuolu and Hanquan to confirm the matter of witches and ghosts in the army today, Xu Huang couldn't help but shake his head again, he couldn't help it at this time, and was about to open his mouth to defend again.

Unexpectedly, Gan Ling next to him also smiled and said bluntly:

"Gongming, the Art of War also said, 'Therefore, the scriptures are based on five things, and the school is based on calculations and asks for their feelings: one is the Tao, the second is the sky, the third is the earth, the fourth is the general, and the fifth is the law. These two things of 'Dao' and 'Heaven' are still ranked before 'general' and 'law', so how can it be said that with the help of the power of witches and ghosts, it is not the way to win? ”

Hearing that Gan Ling also spoke, and Yan Xing was also eager to interject beside him, Yan Xing's brows moved, and he realized in his heart that this military discussion inadvertently involved the dispute over regional customs.

Note: "The Classic of Mountains and Seas: The Great Wilderness of the North": "Chi You is the Yellow Emperor, and the Yellow Emperor is the wilderness of Jizhou that should be attacked by the dragon. Should be the dragon and animal water, Chi especially please wind and rain, rain from the (longitudinal) wind and rain. The Yellow Emperor is the goddess of heaven, and the rain stops, so he kills Chi You.""

"Historical Records: Five Emperors" :(Yellow Emperor)" "taught Xiong Zhen Pixiu Tiger to fight with Emperor Yan in the field of Hanquan." Three battles, and then get its will. ”

Volume 15 of "Taiping Yulan" quotes "Zhilin": "The Yellow Emperor and Chiyou fought in the field of Zhuolu. Chi is especially a big cloud, and for three days, the soldiers are confused. The Yellow Emperor ordered the Wind Queen Dharma Bucket Machine to be used as a guide car, so as to distinguish the Quartet, and then capture Chiyou. (Please support the genuine)
