Chapter 121: Dividing the Troops

Gao Xianzhi looked away: "Liang Chaoran is a very chivalrous person, and he is extremely important. Promising a woman to avenge the death of her father, the government was unwilling to accept this difficult lawsuit, so he took a knife and cut off the thief's head for 3,000 miles. ”

Yu Lang was also the first time he had heard someone mention Ah Weng's past when he was young, and he seemed very interested, and quietly listened to Gao Xianzhi's story.

"It's a pity that he's with the wrong person." As for who that person was, Gao Xianzhi seemed reluctant to mention it, but Yu Lang knew that what he meant must be Xu Jingye.

"In the past, Brother Liang and I experienced some interesting things in Yangzhou City, and we became close friends. Unfortunately, the good times were short-lived, and then I had to leave Yangzhou for Chang'an on the orders of my father, and I was separated from him, and he should have died in the rebels. Speaking of this, Gao Xianzhi had a look of annoyance on his face, "If he went to Chang'an with me back then...... Ay...... To each his own life. ”

Yu Lang also sighed softly: "Yes, everyone has their own life." ”

Gao Xianzhi looked at Yu Lang's thin figure, and it was expected that he remembered the sadness of his own Ah Weng's death, and felt even more pity in his heart: "Yu Lang, although you have lost your parents since you were a child, now you also have a group of life and death brothers in our Western Expeditionary Army, so you don't have to be overly sad." Let's not talk about this, this ghost place is already desolate, and it is even more uncomfortable to talk about these sad things. ”

The two chatted for a while, and the topic quickly returned to the tactics of attacking Lianyunbao.

Lianyunbao is built on the mountain, easy to defend and difficult to attack. Yu Lang believed that once the Tubo army had gathered its troops and made several heavy defenses, even if the Western Expeditionary Army could forcibly pull down the city by virtue of its numerical superiority, it would suffer heavy losses.

Gao Xianzhi comprehended Yu Lang's intentions: "You mean to force the Bole River and kill them by surprise?" You are still as radical as ever, but the water in the Bole River is turbulent, and our army is quite cumbersome with grain and grass, and if it is attacked by the Tubo soldiers, I am afraid of heavy losses. ”

Half-crossing is an extremely effective tactic, which can often inflict heavy damage on the enemy at a very small cost.

Yu Lang squatted on the ground and carved the location of Bole River and Lianyun Fort with stones: "My suggestion is that General Li Siye lead the Modao Battalion to be lightly armed and quickly cross the river to capture Lianyun Fort. The Modao Battalion only brought three days of dry food, and they could wade through the water as fast as they could, and then raid with all their might. ”

"Li Siye's Modao battalion is full of good hands, and the speed of short-term rapid marches is no longer below that of cavalry, and the combat ability is indeed strong. But Yu Lang, you have to know that Lianyun Fort is easy to defend and difficult to attack, even if the defenders in the fort are less than 2,000, they are defending according to the danger, and the Modao battalion has no siege equipment, so they are afraid of heavy casualties. What's more, there are also 10,000 Tubo soldiers in the military village south of Lianyunbao, once Li Siye can't take Lianyunbao as soon as possible, he will inevitably be attacked from both sides, and he is afraid that the whole army will be wiped out at that time! There was a bit of reproach in Gao Xianzhi's tone, and he seemed to be a little dissatisfied with Yu Lang's sloppiness.

Yu Lang did not feel Gao Xianzhi's doubts, and continued: "My idea is to besiege the city and send reinforcements, General Li Siye's Modao battalion crossed the river to attack Lianyunbao as quickly as possible, and it will take a while from the attack on Lianyunbao to the news reaching the military village in the south of the city. This time is enough for my cavalry battalion to cross the river, there is a plain from the Bingzhai to Lianyunbao, which is suitable for cavalry charges, as long as I am stuck in this position, the reinforcements of the Bingzhai are only sent to death. After the ambush was completed with several waves of reinforcements, I led the cavalry battalion to completely pull out the soldiers. ”

Gao Xianzhi suddenly said: "You are attacking the east and the west, it seems that you want to fight Lianyunbao, but in fact, what you really want to fight is the fat in the soldier's village." ”

Yu Lang smiled: "Exactly, although Lianyunbao is in a critical position, it is too small after all, and there are not too many soldiers, and the soldier village is a threat to us." ”

"This plan is feasible, but I have to remind you two sentences, the number of the garrison of the fortress is 10,000 This is the news I got from the captives a few days ago, it may not be true, with the scale of the Bolechuan Fortress, even if there are 100,000 soldiers in it, it is not impossible. Will you and your cavalry camp really be able to withstand the pressure? ”

Yu Lang took out the third stone: "The time contained by our cavalry battalion is enough for the remaining 30,000 troops to cross the river to help. The core of my strategy is to divide the army into three parts to cross the river, and then put the effective forces into the battlefield in time, exchanging space for time. ”

"Wonderful!" Gao Xianzhi couldn't help but stroke his palms and praised, "Three points to cross the river to besiege the city and send reinforcements, if this battle is won, your name of Yu Lang Yu Ziyou will definitely resound throughout the Tang Dynasty!" Now there is only one problem left to be solved, how to avoid the possibility of the Modao battalion being attacked by the Tubo side. ”

Yu Lang slowly pulled out his hand and planted a sword: "I have a sword that can break Bole Chuan." Yesterday I went to calculate that with my strength in the initial realm, I can cut off the flow of water for about 100 breaths, and in this 100 breaths of time, the Modao battalion must rush to the other side of the river as quickly as possible. After slashing this sword, I will have about three days of weakness, so I will not be able to perform it continuously, so I can only cross the river in three steps according to the plan I had made before. The safest way is for General Li Siye to command the first Modao Battalion, I to lead the second Xiaocai Battalion, and you will command the army to finally press the formation. ”

At this point, Gao Xianzhi was convinced by Yu Lang's complete set of meticulous tactics, although they all sounded a little absurd that had never been heard of, but it was indeed feasible when you thought about it.

Yu Lang saw that Gao Xianzhi had no objections, and reminded in a low voice: "Wang Tianyun is not very restless these days, the general should be careful that he suddenly attacks, after all, he also has His Majesty's seal in his hand, if he hinders the march at a critical moment......"

Gao Xianzhi's eyes showed a fierce light: "It's okay to say that this nest of waste is safe and guarded, if he dares to make any abnormal moves, I will be the first to kill him!" will be outside, and the king's order will not be affected. As long as we win the battle, even if he is Li Linfu's own son, if he kills, he will be killed, and His Majesty will not blame us for anything, let alone just a son-in-law of Li Linfu. ”

Only after Gao Xianzhi's words can Yu Lang be completely relieved, although Wang Tianyun is a waste, but after all, where is his identity, he can use the Eagle Eye Camp to spy on him, but there is no reason to interfere or even hurt him, if Gao Xianzhi, the Tang Dynasty Pillar, is willing to make a move, the matter will become much simpler.

After Gao Xianzhi returned to the camp, he summoned several core generals of the Western Expeditionary Army, and described in detail with him the tactics of Yu Lang crossing the river to besiege the city in three points, and made a detailed distribution of everyone's tasks.

Dudu Xi Yuanqing looked a little unhappy after hearing this: "General, why do I think that this kid Yu Lang is calculating you?" There is no military merit to lead the army to cross the river in the end......"

Gao Xianzhi slapped Xi Yuanqing in the face: "Hugh will mention this kind of thing again in the future!" The tactics were thought up by General Yu, Bole Chuan had to rely on General Yu's superb personal force to cut off the flow, after crossing the Sichuan, the most powerful soldier village wanted General Yu to personally attack, he contributed the most, the task was the heaviest, if he won, the biggest credit should have belonged to him! If you have time to speak sour words here, it is better to use your brains to learn from General Yu. ”

Xi Yuanqing was full of shame: "General, Yuanqing knows that he is wrong. ”
