Chapter 200: On Protracted War
Hearing Ritsu Kagawa's order, the herald did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly used a big mallet to ring a super big gong beside him. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
Liu Zhi He waited for the signal to retreat, and did not dare to fight. They retreated. Although Li Dao and Guo Yanbing want to bite their opponents, where do they have this ability?
Whenever he saw Liu Zhilin and others retreating, thinking that they had something cheap to pick up, such people rushed up and were killed by others.
And the people did not lose the slightest. For a time, no one dared to go up to chase the enemy again.
Seeing that the opponent came and went like the wind, rushed in like the wind, and when he retreated, he was like a cloud of water, and after a lot of slashing and killing them, he retreated again in the blink of an eye. Thousands of thieves can only stare at each other, and there is nothing they can do.
Ritsukagawa and the others retreated, and retreated straight to seven miles away, which was the only way to stop.
The name of this place is Yiyangling, the mountain is lofty, and the terrain is dangerous. The peaks on both sides are inserted into the sky, and there is an official road in the middle. From here, the back leads straight to Anyi.
Ritsukagawa took a brief look at the terrain and told the soldiers to start camping there.
Defending this place is guarding the throat of Li Dao Guo Yan's soldiers leading to Anyi, and this time, Ritsu Kagawa is here to block Li Dao Guo Yan's men and horses from Anyi.
While the soldiers were still cleaning up the camp, Liu Zhi, He Cai, and Lin Yi came to the pre-set up simple Chinese military tent to discuss the march with Ritsu Kagawa.
"My lord, this time Li Dao Guo Yan has 70,000 thieves, and we only have 5,000 soldiers and horses, how can the thieves be broken?"
When everyone came here, they had just sat down, and He Cai asked first.
This time, the military situation was urgent, and when they got the news, they sent troops to meet the enemy before they had time to do any discussion, just wanting to keep the enemy soldiers out of Anyi and prevent the thieves from destroying Anyi.
But how exactly they want to resist the enemy, this Ritsu Kagawa and the others have not yet carefully discussed. So at this time, they gathered here at Ritsukagawa and asked for a plan.
What He Cai asked is exactly what everyone wants to know. Therefore, after he asked Ritsukagawa this question, Liu Zhilin also looked at Ritsukagawa to see how he answered.
Ritsu Kagawa glanced at everyone and said, "Anyi is our base camp and where the holy car is, and now we don't have to say anything about it, we can only defend it."
When he said this, he didn't say anything, who doesn't know to defend the enemy to the death? But they only have so many troops, and the opponent's troops are several times that of theirs, can they definitely hold it if they say that they want to defend it to the death?
"But the thieves are strong, how can we defend them so that they don't be broken by the thieves?" He Cai still asked.
Ritsukagawa said: "It's because the enemy is strong, so we can defend and succeed." If we can give them enough resistance, in a few days, the other party is afraid that we will be consumed. ”
He Cai heard him say this, and said strangely: "Li Dao Guo Yan is the hero, how can we compare manpower and material resources?" How dare you assert that the thieves will not be able to fight us. ”
Ritsu Kagawa said with a smile: "Although the enemy's material resources are abundant, they are also hundreds of miles away, although the other party is coming with all his strength to send troops this time, but I am afraid that we may not pay much attention to us." If the other side only wants to press the border with a large army and fight a quick victory, and the logistics support does not keep up, as long as our resistance exceeds the other side's budget, the other side will be in chaos without a fight. So this time, as long as we can hold on for a while, we can almost win without a fight. ”
He Cai was still a little puzzled when he heard him say this, and he said: "But my lord, how can you conclude that Li and Guo Yan are not fully prepared?" If the other party's ration line is perfect, then we are not their enemy at all? ”
Ritsukagawa smiled: "The other party's troops are 70,000, and we only have a few thousand, in this case, they will still be ready to fight with us, then there is a ghost." Therefore, the thieves must only want to fight with us quickly, and they will never want to stay with us for a long time. There is little doubt about that. ”
He Cai stopped talking. Ritsukagawa is indeed right. Under the comparison of the military conditions of the two sides, if Li Dao Guo Yan dared to send troops only if he had to make all preparations, it seemed that he really looked at them too cautiously.
I'm afraid that any general in this world will not do this! The side with absolutely strong forces will definitely want to rely on superior forces to fight a quick victory. They poured all their forces into this to deter the enemy to a certain extent.
"But in this way, the other side is attacking us. It must have been very violent at first! So what preparations will we make for this, and will we be able to withstand the onslaught of the other side? He Cai still said a little worriedly.
Ritsukagawa said: "The general asked us if we could withstand it, and it depends on whether our fortifications are strong enough. Let's go and supervise each other, and don't let the people below cut corners. ”
The three of them got up and said to Ritsu Kagawa, "Yes!"
Then they went their separate ways.
After seeing the three of them leave, Han Rong stood up on the side, he approached Ritsu Kagawa and asked him, "Is the general's judgment of Li and Guo's two thief armies accurate?"
Ritsukagawa said: "Do you need to talk about this? Defeated by the crowd, and we are still unknown, the other party has to make a comprehensive arrangement for us, so we dare to send troops, then the other party's handsome talent is inevitably too cautious and useless. If it were me, I would only find a way to defeat the enemy as quickly as possible, and I would not fight him. ”
Han Rong nodded, this is indeed the case. But he said: "Actually, the general can obviously tell Liu Zhi who is the talent of them, Xu Huang has gone to raid the Li thief's lair, and soon after, the thief soldiers may retreat, but why doesn't the general do it?"
Yes, if you tell Liu Zhi directly that as long as they get past the initial difficult moment, the enemy soldiers may soon retreat, then the morale of the soldiers will not be higher? Why didn't Ritsukagawa do that?
Ritsukagawa thought for a moment and said, "I just want Liu Zhihe to have the courage to fight to the end in any situation where the mountains and rivers are exhausted and helpless." Although it is a bit unfair to them to do this time, it is rare for them to exercise. Only an army, tempered by all the most difficult circumstances. in order to truly grow into a division of a hundred battles. If it always fights in good times, such an army, even if it can win battles, it is not an iron army. ”
“……”
Hearing Ritsu Kagawa's words, Han Rong wanted to speak, but found that he couldn't say anything. For such a person, he really has nothing to say.
