Chapter 1112: Fighting Too Fast, Not Enough People

"The strength of the Xuanjia Army and the retreat and forbearance of the Guanzhong Army stimulated the disgust and anger of the young Zhuang faction in the Guanzhong Army, so these young Zhuang factions took the initiative to plan an attack."

"But they planned this attack, definitely not to send them to death, but to create an excuse before the battle, and the purpose was to let the two sides fight, so it seems that they have not seen the Xuanjia army attacking the city and plundering the land, they really feel that the outcome of this is still unknown."

"The son of the general of the Zhang family, what he asked for was for the two armies to fight, but he definitely didn't expect that the Xuanjia Army selected by him was obviously only one-tenth of the number, and it was only a squad that went out to patrol, and in the case of a sneak attack, it could still burst out with unimaginable combat effectiveness, but annihilated the people of the general's son!"

"However, although this person is dead, in a sense, his plan has succeeded, and it is better than he originally expected, after all, in the plan of the son of this general, his own death must not be listed, and this matter is tantamount to completely angering the Southern Army."

"The current situation is that the military struggle is not something that can end in a few words, what is the face of the court, not to mention for the time being, if the general's mansion forces the court to bow its head, it will be very unfavorable to the general's reputation."

After learning the general situation from Gao He's mouth, Wang Gou and Lu Chen came to the camp tent prepared for them, sorted out the current situation, and then became worried.

Ran Zhan has already led people to the south, and the current excuse seems to be the same, but Wang Gou and Lu Chen know very well that this kind of thing has always depended on how the scholars write, if it is said that the general's mansion is good, Ran Zhan's behavior is reckless at most, but if he stands on the side of the Guanzhong Imperial Court, followed by the verbal and written criticism of the Youzhou Group, it is unavoidable.

What's more, the envoy order of the two seems to be difficult to make.

After discussion, they decided to write a letter to Chen Zhi first, explaining the situation, and then learning about Ran Zhan's entry, so as to decide what to do next.

When the situation was written, the letter was handed over to the messengers in the army, and they were asked to pass the news through carrier pigeons.

The carrier pigeon is a method of communication that has recently been slowly understood by spies of some forces and has begun to imitate it, but in a short period of time, there is no need to worry about too many competitors.

"I heard that those three envoys will also be on the road tomorrow and will be forcibly sent to Jinyang." After doing this, Wang Gou suddenly thought of something, "Brother Lu thinks, do you want to meet?" ”

"You don't need to meet, what can the other party say, you and I know it in our hearts, didn't we also make it clear in front of Gao He and others before?" Lu Chen shook his head, "It's better to give the general a headache in this matter." ”

Unanimous opinion, Wang Gou nodded: "In this case, let's wait for the battle report from the front, Brother Lu, how many great results do you think Captain Ran can have when he goes south this time?" Will it win? ”

Lu Chen pondered for a moment and said: "Judging from the record of the Xuanjia Army in the north, the victory will definitely be victorious, but this time, for the Xuanjia Army, it is also a sudden, not prepared, although I have not led troops, but I know that the two sides are fighting, not only to see the battlefield fighting, but also to test the logistics supply, Xuanjia from Youzhou, from the north to the south, swept and merged with the state, although invincible, but the north and south front is too long, transporting grain and grass is the problem, even if there are many counties and counties to submit, but to sort it out, it will take a lot of energy and time, Not to mention crossing the north and south of the state, supporting Captain Ran to use troops to the south. ”

"It makes sense," Wang Gou agreed, "This is also the next idea, although the Xuanjia Army is the best in the world, but the soldiers are even fighting against the conquest, they can't cultivate, I'm afraid they are also tired, this time Captain Ran goes south, he can win on the battlefield, I'm afraid it will be difficult to really occupy the county, let alone let the Southern Army retreat, if the two sides face off in a fierce battle, it will actually be unfavorable to the Xuanjia Army!" ”

Lu Chen said: "But at that time, it was also the time for us to dissuade Captain Ran from withdrawing troops, and the confrontation between the two sides was just right for you and me to come forward and discuss the strike with the south." ”

With such a consensus, the two were relieved and waited for the follow-up development, but they didn't wait long, and the news came back quickly, but the content surprised the two.

"After successive battles and victories, the enemy army was defeated, and Captain Ran led people to occupy nearly half of the county seat of Pingyang County, and then sent a letter for help."

Listening to Gao He's news, Wang Gou and Lu Chen lost their minds for a while, this is too different from the ending they predicted, and the final result is even more different.

But when they heard Gao Ji's last sentence, they still understood.

"But because the battle line is too long, the logistics supply is no longer sustainable?" Lu Chen asked bluntly.

"That's not the case," Gao He shook his head, "The main thing is that the captain has fewer troops this time, and he can only occupy the current territory, if he divides the troops again, it will be too scattered and can't form an array, so I want Captain Yang to send troops to support." ”

"This ......" Wang Gou and Lu Chen were dumbfounded, and they really didn't know how to evaluate it.

In the end, they still don't know enough about the Xuanjia Army.

When the Xuanjia army was in full swing, they happened to be under house arrest, so they were a little misjudged, and at this point, many surrounding forces had a common language with them.

Fortunately, the two of them were in the Youzhou camp in the end, and after the misjudgment, they were not afraid, but asked for further details.

On the other hand, before coming, the two of them had read the relevant files and books, and they were already mentally prepared, but the description on the paper was not as shocking as their personal experience after all.

"The two of you want to go south to negotiate, and I won't hide that matter, so that you can have confidence in your hearts when you negotiate," Gao He finished speaking, and took the two of them to the barracks, but saw a wood-carved cow and horse displayed in it, but not four legs underneath, but wheels, "Our logistics supply is relying on the help of these wooden oxen and flowing horses." ”

"This is what it is!" When Wang Gou saw it, he suddenly realized, "I heard that this thing was first created by Wuhou, and then it was lost, it can transport grain and grass, and it is not afraid of long distances, and it does not consume people's strength, but it is also in the army!" ”

Lu Chen said: "I mentioned one or two sentences in the book before, but I didn't pay attention to it. ”

Gao He said: "This thing is different from the thing created by Wuhou, but it was proposed by the general, made by Mojia craftsmen, able to carry heavy loads, travel hundreds of miles, with the help of this, the grain and grass are endless!" ”

"No wonder Captain Ran is so powerful," Wang Gou's eyes lit up and nodded, "But in this way, I'm afraid the war will continue for a long time, so how can Guanzhong stop?" ”

"That's why you two are invited over," Gao He smiled and made a proposal, "How about two people entering the customs and negotiating with the two kings?" ”
