Chapter 72 It is more difficult to fight than to fight, to get Dongyang to Chengdu (1)
Last time, it was said that Li Congke and Shi Jingjiao suffered a loss under the city of Chengdu, and was put on a position by Meng Zhixiang, killing and wounding three or two hundred soldiers.
The two retreated from the battlefield, and while their faces were sinking like water, they ordered the soldiers to collect the wounded, and on the other hand, they had to get together to discuss the current situation, especially Shi Jingjiao, who knew that with his current situation, he could not make a mistake, and it was difficult to say whether he would be recorded if he made a meritorious service under the city of Chengdu, but as long as he made a mistake, Li Congjing would definitely turn his face and deny people.
At the beginning of the battle of Shu, Shi Jingjing was defeated in Jianzhou for a while, Li Congjing was going to behead him, and then although he was left with a life, the punishment was not heavy, and then Shi Jingjing went to show loyalty to Li Congjing, although Li Congjing seemed to believe it, but in the end he believed it or not, Shi Jingjing had a spectrum in his heart.
In the final analysis, neither he nor Li Congjing can really believe anyone.
After that, he finally relied on the battle of attacking Jianzhou City, and exchanged his life for the opportunity to relead the army, and there was no merit and hard work outside Xuanwu City, and when the shape was good, Li Congjing sent him to Chengdu to cover again, this opportunity for meritorious service, but in fact, the danger index was outrageously high.
What kind of person is Meng Zhixiang, Shi Jingjiao still has some understanding, it is definitely an old fox, and it is also a stinky and hard old fox, if it is not for the opposite position, Shi Jingjiao does not want to admit it in his heart, in fact, Meng Zhixiang really has a heroic posture.
To pick up a bargain from this guy, it takes twelve points of energy to make it possible.
"Third brother, the old thief Meng went out of the city to fight, in order to give you and me a horse, but think about it carefully, I am afraid that there will be a big article."
Shi Jingjiao pulled Li Congke and whispered to him: "According to my old thief, I'm afraid that I'm already here, you and I didn't come as the vanguard of the army, otherwise, how could he go out of the city to fight with you and me?" ”
"Are you saying that the old thief knows that you and I are here to hold Chengdu and buy time for Dongyang?"
Li Congke couldn't help but be a little surprised, seeing Shi Jingjiao nodding, he couldn't help but say, "What should I do?" Chengdu is a land of flat rivers, if the old thief is iron-hearted, he wants to send soldiers and horses to rescue Dongyang, and some are walking, you and I are only afraid that we can't stop him! ”
"For today's plan, there are only three things, if you can do them all, the three days may not be delayed!"
Shi Jingjiao stared at Li Congke, his expression was very stern, "First, you can't ask Dongyang's messenger to get close to Chengdu, so that the old thief knows that Dongyang has more reinforcements from our army; Second, the messenger from Chengdu cannot be called to Dongyang, the reason is the same; Third, if the old thief sends troops and horses to rescue Dongyang, you and I need to be dragged on the road. ”
"The first two are easy to say, although Chengdu is a flat river, but as long as the soldiers are scattered, thousands of soldiers weave into a net, and some messengers are difficult to slip through the net. The difficulty is the third one, if the soldiers and horses in Chengdu want to go to Dongyang, I am afraid that the net cast by you and me will not be able to withstand their tearing, and it will be broken by the thief army! ”
Li Congke said.
"There's a way."
Shi Jingjiao's eyes were ruthless, and he ordered the military envoy to bring a map, and in front of Shi Jingjiao, he spread it out on the dirt floor, pointed to the top and said: "Chengdu is sixty or seventy miles away from Dongyang, and these three places are located between Chengdu and Dongyang, occupying the main road, overlooking the land within a radius of dozens of miles, and the distance between each other is only one or twenty miles. ”
"This"
Li Congke groaned for a while, quite worried, "You and I divide the troops like this, although we can monitor all sides, but the strength everywhere is inevitably weak, if Meng Lao Thief sends thousands of elite soldiers and horses to forcibly break through, I am afraid that the soldiers everywhere may not be able to drag the nearby soldiers and horses to arrive."
"If you can't hold it off, you have to hold it off, even if the soldiers die, you can't let the thief army cross the border - this requires the third brother to strictly order the troops to lead by example."
Shi Jingjiao stared at Li Congke tightly, and the glint in his eyes seemed to be forcing the other party to ask if he could do this.
Li Congke was a little sneering, "This is playing with life"
"It's better to play with your life than not to die."
Shi Jingjiao said, clenching his teeth, "The military law of the big handsome, you won't be ignorant, if you delay the big event, you and I will have to move our heads." ”
Speaking of this, Shi Jingjiao took a deep breath and said with deep meaning: "During the battle of Xuanwu, the gentlemen dragged the 30,000 thief army in Longmen Mountain for twelve hours with 3,000 horsemen. Today's events, if you talk about danger, they are still not as good as at that time, is it possible that you and I can't even compare to Lin Xiong's kid? ”
At this point, Li Congke couldn't refuse, so he said impassionedly: "Cutting down Shu is a great cause, and now that the big victory is imminent, although a certain person is not very capable, he must not let the court be ashamed, even if he fights this old bone, there is nothing to say!" ”
Immediately, the two of them agreed on the details, and then gathered the soldiers and horses, except for the hundreds of thousands of horsemen who cast the net, and the rest were divided into three shares, one led by Shi Jingjiao, one led by Li Congke, and one by Shi Chonggui and Li Congke's henchmen, divided into three places.
After saying goodbye to Shi Jingjiao, Li Congke looked at the other party's distant back and groaned for a while.
Li Zhuanmei, who accompanied the counselor of the military plane, was beside Li Congke, and he said gloomily: "This battle is not easy to fight, and after three days, there will be thousands of casualties. ”
"He was forced too hard by the big handsome, and he had no choice."
Li Congke snorted coldly, "Look, the battle of Shu is over, not to mention the great merits of all the generals and soldiers, and the military strength will definitely go to a higher level, only the two armies that protect the country and protect the righteousness, there are not many people left." ”
"Didn't the general plan to serve in the forbidden army a long time ago, and if the feudal army is gone, it will be gone, I just hope that at the cost of the lives of these thousands of soldiers, I can find a good career for the general in the forbidden army."
Li Zhuanmei said in a low voice.
Li Congke sneered, "Do you really think that the commander of the forbidden army is a beautiful difference?" The feudal towns are princes, holding the military and political power of one side, and they want the wind to be the wind and the rain, compared to the generals, what are the generals of the forbidden army? Shoes are not worthy of something! ”
After that, he took a sip and scolded: "This shit! ”
I'm angry, and I don't know what I'm scolding, or who I'm scolding.
Beat the horse and turned around, beckoned the tribe to go to the agreed place, Li Congke also said, "Shi Jingjiao has always boasted of being shrewd, then let him be shrewd, isn't he underestimating a certain family, a certain family might as well be worse than that, a certain family will not believe that he can bear it, and he will bear the brunt of any disasters when the time comes." Fuck, straight bitch thief, phew! ”
From the very beginning of this war, it was different from what Li Congke expected, the great achievement of pouring the sky was gone, and the post-eminence of Guo Chongtao has also become a utopia, and now even the belongings have to be lost, and he has ended up in a personal and self-defeating situation, Li Congke feels worthless no matter how he thinks about it.
After finally venting his anger and grievances, Li Congke sighed, and he had to pay attention to the present, first go all out to overcome the dangers in front of him, and then talk about the art of war.
During the day, although Meng Zhixiang led the troops to attack Li Congke and Shi Jingjiao outside the city for a while, and achieved an exciting effect, but when he left the city and returned to the Shuai Mansion, Meng Zhixiang still fell into hard thought.
What he was thinking about was Li Congjing's intention of sending Li Congkeshi Jingjiao to Chengdu.
As the vanguard of the army?
Meng Zhixiang didn't believe this statement at all.
Although Li Congke and Shi Jingjiao had many ways outside the city, it seemed that they were paving the way for the main force to attack the city, but this could not hide from Meng Zhixiang, and the most obvious doubt was that the main force of the Wang Division was still assembled in Xindu.
Although Xindu is only fifty miles away from Chengdu, and the rapid march will arrive in one day, it is not a matter of distance, but the difference between stillness and movement.
The main force of the king division moves or does not move, that is a world of difference.
"If the thief army is attacking Chengdu, then its intention is in Chengdu, if it is attacking Dongyang, then its intention is in Dongyang, but the thief army does not move, so where is their intention?"
Meng Zhixiang couldn't think through it.
"The battle in Dongyang has started, and it is said that the thief army intends to attack Dongyang first. But is it really that simple? ”
Meng Zhixiang shook his head secretly, "If the thief army intends to fake Dongyang, attract Chengdu to help, and ambush the soldiers and horses who rescue Dongyang in Chengdu halfway, what should I do?" ”
This is a siege of the city to send reinforcements, there are countless examples of such battles throughout the ages, and Meng Zhixiang has to guard against it.
"If that's the case, what is the explanation of Li Congkeshi Jingjiao's department outside the city?"
Meng Zhixiang thought again, "Draw the soldiers and horses into the capital?" ”
Meng Zhixiang shook his head, this is also unlikely, the combat power of the two armies of the protector and the righteous is at the bottom of the Wang Division, and there are only 4,000 people, let them lead the capital, can they contain it?
Although there are not many garrisons in Chengdu, there are also brave generals, and if Meng Zhixiang is willing, it is not difficult to eat the two armies of the protector and the righteous - at least they can be defeated.
"In this way, Li Congke's Shi Jingjiao's department should just be a bait put by Li Congjing, and the purpose is to lure our soldiers and horses into battle."
Meng Zhixiang closed his eyes, leaned on his back and pondered, "I heard that the forbidden army has a lot of fine horses, if we fight fiercely with it, the thief army is likely to rush to attack it!" ”
After thinking hard that day to no avail, the city gate guards reported that the thief army left Chengdu City, divided into three units, and went to three places to station.
On the second day, Dongyang's battle was reported.
Meng Zhixiang received the battle report, quickly skimmed it, and put it down.
Dongyang wants to deliver the war report to Chengdu, and there are means, and Li Congkeshi Jingjiao thinks that the careful arrangement cannot play its due role.
"The thief army is strong, and Dongyang is in danger."
Meng Zhixiang closed his eyes again, "Li Congjing, this is forcing me to save Dongyang quickly!" If Dongyang is lost, Chengdu may also be difficult to preserve, so what can I do? ”
"Li Congshi Jingjiao evacuated Chengdu and laid a big net between Chengdu and Dongyang, making it clear that he wanted to intercept my soldiers and horses in Chengdu to rescue Dongyang, does Li Congjing really plan to let these two people contain me in Chengdu and take the lead in capturing Dongyang City?"
Meng Zhixiang felt some pain in his eyebrows.
"In all fairness, the capture of Dongyang is the guarantee for the capture of Chengdu, and it is possible for Li Congjing to do so."
Meng Zhixiang continued to ponder, "However, if you fall into Li Congjing's trap, Chengdu will be doomed." ”
The more Meng Zhixiang thought about it, the more entangled he became, and finally he was so annoyed that he punched the case.
If he could accurately know the traces of the new capital Wang Shi, and could detect the movements of the enemy and the enemy within a radius of 100 miles, he would not be so passive, but the scout spies in Chengdu and the scouts of the Wang Shi had already started a competition, and Li Congjing's military intelligence department was even more powerful, and finally the scout chess pieces that Meng Zhixiang had planted in various places in advance were lost one by one, and they did not play their due role at all, so that he could not master the "enemy nest" at all now
of movement.
Of course, Li Congjing may not be able to know the movements in Chengdu.
But in this war, Li Congjing, who is the attacker and has a huge military force, is the one who holds the initiative, Chengdu is already passive, and he can't grasp much intelligence, so it is naturally extremely difficult to plan the battle.
"Is it just like this, and you don't do anything?"
Meng Zhixiang asked himself, and then denied this idea, "If it is a random action, it has a counterproductive effect, and it is in danger." ”
"No!"
Meng Zhixiang suddenly startled, "I can't wait any longer, no matter what, I need to throw stones to ask for directions, and send a soldier and horse in advance to rescue Dongyang, how to deal with it!" ”
Moreover, Li Congkeshi Jingjiao divided his troops into three places, which was to kill himself, and he just gave a certain opportunity to break through. It's amazing, if the thief army doesn't move much, eat Li Congke Shi Jingjiao first, and you can also weaken the power of the thief army! ”
When Li Congjing was eating tea, the news of Meng Zhixiang's battle against Li Congkeshi Jingjiao reached him.
"The old thief couldn't help but shoot after all."
Li Congjing handed the letter to Wang Pu and the others, smiling mellowly.
"The old thief is throwing stones and asking for directions."
Sang Weihan said with a smile.
"The old thief is not sure whether we want to take Dongyang first, or take a better method, eat his reinforcements first, and then take Dongyang, this strategy of throwing stones and asking for directions is reasonable."
Wang Pu also said.
"Now that the old thief has made a move, we can't be idle, let the prepared Gao Xingzhou move."
Li Congjing waved his hand while eating tea.
The herald took the order, and Du Qianshu asked curiously: "I don't know if the old thief will immediately retreat back to Chengdu City after knowing that General Gao is dispatched." ”
"Xindu is only fifty miles away from Chengdu, how long can it take for the elite cavalry to run, and Li Congkeshi Jingjiao is not in front of the city at the moment, the location of the battle between the two is really delicate, if I am an old thief, I will also retreat into the city."
Li Congjing put down the tea bowl and said.
Fang Cai Li Congjing mentioned that the place of engagement was "delicate"
, Wang Pu asked: "Although Xindu is not far from Chengdu, but General Gao goes to the rescue, after all, it will take some time, Li Congkeshi Jingjiao has divided his troops into three places, can they delay until General Gao arrives?" ”
"This depends on whether Keshi Jingjiao fights desperately and how much combat power Meng Lao Thief has sent."
Du Qianshu groaned.
Sang Weihan smiled gloomily, "The two of them will definitely fight and not retreat." ”
Li Congjing just smiled lightly and was noncommittal.
"In this way, the two armies of the protector of the country and the righteous are acting as bait?"
Wang Pu reacted, but the focus of his attention was obviously not on this, and then asked: "If the two armies of the country and the protection of righteousness fight to the death, in the face of General Gao's attack, I am afraid that the thief army will suffer some losses, and it will be difficult to retreat with all his body, so how will General Gao's troops act next?" ”
"Naturally, there is nowhere else to go."
Li Congjing shook his sleeves, "The fox's tail is exposed, can it still be hidden?" Let Gao Xingzhou chatter with the old thief nearby, Chengdu City. ”
Li Congjing's "fox"
, not referring to Meng Zhixiang, but talking about himself.
