Chapter 457: If you have more soldiers, you can do whatever you want
The generals were silent, and lowered their heads one by one, looking ashamed.
In a silence, he said in frustration: "The lord is angry, the reason why we have repeatedly lost to the Su thief before is because we underestimated him, this person is the head of the Nine Wonders, and he can sweep the Central Plains in a few years with the body of a cold man, and even break the heroes, which is enough to show his extraordinary strength, since ancient times, those who underestimate the enemy will be defeated, and the lord is wise and martial, this truth is naturally clear." ”
Yuan Shao originally heard him praise Su Zhe, and his heart was a little unhappy, but when he heard him praise himself for his "wise and martial arts", his expression turned cloudy and clear.
Fu Zhu then said: "Although our army is defeated at the moment, it is only a loss of tens of thousands of soldiers, and there are still 180,000 soldiers and horses, and it still has the absolute upper hand. ”
Frustrated Professor finally could speak, and Yuan Shao, who listened to this speech, was very useful, and his anger was suddenly swept away.
At that moment, Yuan Shao laughed: "What Gonghe said is very true, have you heard it, and cheer me up, it's just a small defeat, why don't you hang your head." ”
Yuan Shao was no longer angry and regained his domineering self-confidence, and his subordinates were naturally relieved and reinvigorated.
This is, Yuan Shao raised his head and poured a sip of wine, brushed his hand and said: "That Su thief is indeed treacherous, his strength is not bad, from today on, none of you can underestimate him, we will take every step of the way, and advance to Guandu step by step, so that the treachery of the Su thief is useless, and I will use Yang to crush him." ”
Finally, Yuan Shao no longer despised Su Zhe and began to face up to his strongest opponent.
The generals said yes one after another, nodded their heads in agreement, and their fighting spirit was great for a while.
After all, they have a big business, there are 200,000 soldiers and horses, even if they lose 20,000 soldiers and horses, the number of remaining soldiers and horses is still twice that of the Soviet army.
The absolute advantage is still on their side, and there is no reason for them to lose confidence because of two defeats.
At this time, he said again: "My lord, it is indeed the safest plan for us to advance step by step, but the terrain around Guandu is narrow, and the Su thieves have built a strong barrier in advance, which can be said to be easy to defend and difficult to attack. ”
Hearing the word "Yijing", Yuan Shao quietly fought a cold war.
In order to resist his attack, Gongsun Zhan spent manpower and material resources to build Yijing's defense line, but it took him more than a year to break through Yijing.
Moreover, it was still based on the internal turmoil and rebellion of Gongsun Zhan.
Yi Jing's sturdiness has made him still have palpitations.
As soon as he thought of attacking the Guandu Barrier, it might take a year and a half like attacking Yi Jing, and Yuan Shao's scalp was a little numb.
"No, we must not repeat the mistakes of Yi Jing!"
Yuan Shao took a few shots, cut it categorically, and looked at Fu Zhu: "Gonghe, what tricks do you have to quickly break the Su thief?" ”
Frustration took advantage of the situation and said: "I have always proposed that the lord divide an elite army to bypass the front defense line of the Su thief and copy Xu Du, and now it is the same, only in this way can the Su thief not be able to stick to the Guandu barrier with peace of mind." ”
This time, Feng Ji and the others did not have the face to oppose again.
Yuan Shao also showed great interest, and hurriedly asked: "Then according to the plan, how should we divide the art of war?" ”
Fu Zhu pointed to the map and said: "For today's plan, the lord should divide tens of thousands of elite soldiers to capture Yongqiu City in the southeast of Guandu, and then go south from Yongqiu to Xudu." The Su thieves are insufficient, most of the soldiers and horses must be concentrated in Guandu, and the flank direction must be empty, as long as our army advances properly, it will be successful. ”
Yuan Shao stared at the map for a long time, his eyes lit up with excitement, and he patted the case: "Okay, just follow the plan of the public, who dares to lead the army to capture Yongqiu and copy the Su thief?" ”
His voice fell, and the generals under his command, such as Yan Liang, Wen Chou, and Zhang He, were indignant and asked for battle, wanting to make up for their mistakes.
Guo Tu Fengji and the others were busy also giving Yuan Tan a look, suggesting that he stood up and asked for battle.
After all, although this strategy was offered by frustration, Guo Tu and the others also knew that this was a great opportunity for meritorious service, so of course they had to persuade Yuan Tan to seize it.
Yuan Tan understood, immediately stood up, and said angrily: "Father, this battle is very important, after all, tens of thousands of soldiers will be divided, if there is any accident, the consequences are unimaginable, it is better for the son to lead the troops." ”
Yuan Tan's "accident", although he did not say it explicitly, was hinting to Yuan Shao to send other generals to command the troops, what should he do if he had a different heart.
Yuan Shao has always been extremely suspicious, and after Yuan Tan's reminder, he suddenly became uneasy.
Yan Liangwen Chou and others, although they are generals, are outsiders after all, and in the final analysis, it is more reassuring to have their own son.
It's just that although Yuan Tan is trustworthy, after all, he lacks experience in commanding troops, and such an important task was handed over to him, which made Yuan Shao a little uneasy.
At this time, Guo Tu and others gave Ju Yi and Gao Ran glances one after another.
The second general understood, immediately went out of class, and said in unison: "Lord, the last general is willing to assist the eldest prince and plagiarize the Su thief." ”
Yuan Shao's eyes suddenly lit up.
Although Gao Ran is not as strong as Yan Liangwen, he is also a good general in the end.
As for Ju Yi, not to mention, in the battle of Jieqiao that year, it was all because his first camp broke Gongsun Zhan's white horse righteous servant, and it was even more reassuring to have him and the first camp to attack.
At that moment, Yuan Shao said happily: "Okay, my son has the guts, and I am really pleased with my father, so I will grant your request and order you to lead 40,000 soldiers and horses to attack Yongqiu and copy Xudu!" ”
Yuan Tan was overjoyed and said: "Thank you father for your trust, father rest assured, this time, my son will not let my father down." ”
So, Yuan Tan received the arrow, with Gao Ran Juyi as the deputy general, and led an army of 40,000 on the same day, diverted to the southeast, and went to attack Yongqiu City.
Yuan Shao personally went to the camp gate and sent away his precious son to make a trip for Yuan Tan.
Seeing the army leave, Yuan Shao's face rekindled with pride, and he sneered: "Su Zhe, aren't you the head of the Nine Wonders, I just want to rely on the soldiers so that you can't take care of each other, I see how you can resist!" ”
……
Guandu Barrier, Soviet Army Battalion.
The main force of 90,000 Soviet troops gathered here, relying on a strong defensive line that stretched for seven miles, and formed a confrontation with the hundreds of thousands of Yuan troops who came to the camp.
Yuan Shao's army arrived at Guandu, camped for ten miles, and put on a posture of fighting a protracted war, but he did not make any moves.
It's day and night.
In the big tent of the Chinese army, Su Zhe chewed broad beans, stared at the map, and pondered Yuan Shao's tactical intentions.
He lost his mind, and did not realize that a shadow had crept into the tent and stood behind him.
It wasn't until the pair of slender crispy hands gently pressed on his shoulders and helped him rub his shoulders that he reacted.
When he looked back, it was Pang Tong who stood behind him at some point, helping him rub his shoulders.
"Tong'er, haven't you slept yet?" Su Zhe smiled and gently stroked her hand.
"Didn't you sleep too, I don't know when this war will be fought, don't be too tired yourself." Pang Tong's face was full of concerned tenderness.
Su Zhe smiled bitterly: "I don't want to be too tired, but with Yuan Shao's character, the army has been encamped for a few days, but it has not attacked for a long time, which makes me feel a little wrong, I have to figure out what Yuan Shao wants to do." ”
Pang Tong looked at the map, stared for a moment, and suddenly moved his eyebrows: "Could it be that Yuan Shao has already divided his troops to bypass Guandu, and wants to copy our flank?" ”
Su Zhe's expression was abrupt, and he suddenly realized.
