Chapter 847: Barefoot is not afraid to wear shoes
October 19, thirty miles southwest of Ghost City, Mutai Village. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
The Alliance Horse Army 6 continued to arrive at the ghost side and entered their respective ambush sites, while the alliance infantry army was still marching together on both sides of the Suotou River, stepping on the snow, and getting closer and closer to the ghost side.
Li Fengyun and the alliance command, under the command of the Thunder First Army, traveled day and night, and rushed to Mutai Village, the intended station. Mutai Village is built by the mountains and rivers, and there are about thousands of people who insult the king's people living in the village and its surrounding mountains and forests. The alliance horse army rumbled in, murderous, and frightened the people in the village. The guide who led the way entered the village in time to communicate, which quickly stabilized the hearts of the people, but Li Fengyun did not intend to enter the village, but ordered the soldiers to camp and rest in the mountains and forests outside the village, and at the same time, for the sake of secrecy, the gate of the village was required to continue to be closed, and the people in the middle of the village could not leave.
In the afternoon, the chieftain of the Humiliated King Department Yun and his younger brother Lei rushed to Mutai Village to report the emergency military situation when they heard the news. Yesterday, there was an urgent report from the Taoshui front, and the reinforcements of the army were brought by Ashina, and the Turkic army on the west bank of Taoshui had exceeded 30,000 horsemen.
Li Fengyun's expression was suddenly solemn, leaned over to look at the map on the desk, and was silent, while Yuan An, Kong Yingda, Murong Zhili, and Li Mengwei, who had just returned from Panlong Fort, looked at each other, secretly surprised, and involuntarily passed a trace of luck and fear in their hearts.
The timing of the Turkic attack was very well chosen, if the alliance army did not achieve the great victory of Maogou River, and is still confronting the Xi army on the front line of Wulieshui, then it will inevitably fall into the predicament of being attacked by the enemy at this moment, and have to fight on two fronts, falling into extreme passivity, even if Li Fengyunhuo sent troops to support the ghost side, but now the snow is falling, the road is difficult, and I am afraid that it will be too late in time, and in this way, even if the humiliating royal department refuses to surrender, hold on to the city, and do everything possible to hold back the Turkic army, it is powerless to change the situation in Anzhou and suddenly subvert, The coalition will not be able to reverse the crisis in the short term.
However, the luck of the alliance has been very good, Li Fengyun's foresight and strategy is also rare in the world, he not only commanded the alliance army to successfully defeat the Xi army before the heavy snow, but also made the decision to trap the Turks in advance, in order to maximize the use of the Xi people's defeat The news has not yet spread the favorable opportunity, the alliance army, under his command and urging, and rushed north to the ghost side, ready to set a trap to catch the Turks by surprise, which was just the right time, just right, and the Turks who entered Anzhou collided head-on, The timing is so subtle that it makes people marvel. This is simply not something that can be done by man, and it can only be thanked by God's favor.
The Yun and Lei brothers looked at Li Fengyun, who was white and calm, and they were inexplicably in a trance. Two years ago, they killed Li Fengyun to the ground, and they even thought they had killed him, but today, two years later, Li Fengyun not only made a comeback, but even killed the Xi people to the ground, forcing the Xi king A Huizheng and the five tribes of the Xi tribe to admit defeat and surrender. The truth is as unreal as a dream, the enemies of life and death in the past, but today they have formed alliances and cooperated, joined forces against the enemy, and the two brothers even succumbed to the white wolf, willing to be driven by it, and charged for it, this kind of unbelievable thing in the past will not even be born in a dream, but now it is alive in front of you, it is really absurd to think about, and it can't help but make people feel in a trance between reality and illusion.
"Ming Gong, the situation is critical, if nothing else, Ashina may be storming Taoshui at this moment, and more than 30,000 strings may be galloping in the flat pine forest." Yun Xun stabilized his mood, and when the catastrophe came, he needed to concentrate on dealing with the crisis, and he couldn't waste a trace of time, "The current fighter plane is fleeting for both the enemy and us, so after Ming Gong finished the battle of Maogou River, he hurried north without waiting for a respite, and Ashina is the same, since he has come with reinforcements, it shows that he has made up his mind, has a clear goal, and enters Anzhou as quickly as possible, defeating the opponent at the lowest cost, and my ghost Fang is the brunt of it, he is the first target of his attack, and it is in danger." ”
"Ming Gong, the Turkic army is pressing the border, the situation is fierce, there will be a bloody battle under the ghost city, the top priority is to be fully prepared, don't be careless and underestimate the enemy." Lei is still as sincere as ever, as soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the tent suddenly became wrong, Yuan An, Kong Yingda and others all looked sideways, very dissatisfied.
Li Fengyun was cautious, nodded, and thought so.
Ray's words are quite subtle, not very straightforward, in fact, his thoughts are completely correct. Now that the situation has changed, the balance of power between the enemy and the enemy has changed, and the basis for the alliance's previous plan of booby trapping no longer exists, and it is necessary to immediately reformulate the strategy of attacking the enemy in light of the latest changes in the battle situation.
Before, the Turks only had more than 20,000 control strings on the Taoshui line, and intended to sit on the mountain to watch the tiger fight, waiting for the opportunity to profit from the fisherman, so the passive slack, the offensive was limited, and now the Turks think that the fighter has arrived, and they are going to attack Anzhou with all their might.
Although Yun and Lei didn't know how many troops Li Fengyun had mobilized to go north, Li Fengyun and Yuan An and other high-level leaders of the alliance knew everything about it. In order to win this battle, the alliance is also doing its best, except for Li Zixiong and Yang Gongdao sitting in Panlong Fort, Zhou Zhong and Lai Yuan sitting in Baitan, and Yue Gao leading the third army of the alliance to town Fangcheng, the rest of the army all went north, including Han Shige's leopard cavalry, the Mukun department led by the Su Branch, the Mohe Tunhe led by the Mohe Fu department, and the main force of the Ahui Department led by A Huichuan, all entered the ghost battlefield, with a total strength of more than 50,000 people, including more than 20,000 horsemen in the horse army.
However, the combat effectiveness of the Thunder Army is limited, and the Xi tribes have been fighting for several months, suffering successive defeats, and the soldiers are physically and mentally exhausted, plus the alliance in order to ensure that the Mukun Division, the Mohefu Division, and the Ahui Department will not defect to the battle, and the chieftains of these three divisions, some of the governors, and the old and weak women and children are all hostages, this move will inevitably seriously affect the morale of the various departments, so even if the alliance horse infantry army fights together and cooperates tacitly, its combat effectiveness is still a certain distance compared with the recuperated Turkic army, and the two sides are at most equal. Neck and neck. In this way, the alliance's plan to lure the enemy to encircle and kill is not feasible, and even if the enemy is surrounded, it will not be able to eat, and in the end it will turn into a bloody battle of defeat and defeat.
However, the key is here, whether it is Li Fengyun or Ashina, they are unwilling and unable to fight both.
For Li Fengyun, the defeat of both sides has led to heavy losses and a great reduction in strength, and once the purpose of this attack is not completed, don't think about it if the weak Luoshui in the north sweeps the Donghu species, which will seriously affect his overall plan. Ashina is the same, he is the backbone of the conservative lord and faction of the desert tent, is the real power, his strength, achievements directly determine his status and power in the tent, and his status and power directly affect the direction of the political situation in the tent, affect the overall situation of the confrontation between the north and the south, if he loses heavy losses in this battle or even returns defeated, the consequences are disastrous, especially for the conservative lords and faction of the tent, it is a heavy blow, and the loss of political interests is incalculable.
So politically speaking, in the battle of the ghost side, Ashina is very passive, and he and Li Fengyun are not opponents of the same level at all. Li Fengyun can afford to lose, but what if the whole army is annihilated? He is just a pawn in Middle-earth, and the purpose of going out of the fortress is to confuse the situation outside the Cypriot, so even if the alliance is wiped out, Middle-earth is also a winning family, on the contrary, Ashina can't afford to lose at all, he has a high power in the tooth tent, and the political interests involved are too great, and he doesn't dare to make the slightest mistake.
It's just that this kind of insight requires a large amount of rich information and a clear understanding of the general trend of the world, which is Li Fengyun's innate talent, and how many people in this world can overlook the world like Li Fengyun?
Therefore, when Li Fengyun pondered for a long time and decided to continue to carry out the timing of the booby-trap, not to mention that Yun and Lei could not understand it, even Yuan An, Kong Yingda and others were full of doubts.
Of course, Yun and Lei did not dare to question Li Fengyun's decision-making, in fact, since Li Fengyun's outburst, the invincible and invincible proud record had already shocked them and made them very awe-struck, especially Maogouchuan's devastating defeat of Ah Huizheng and the Xi army in the first battle, which itself is the best example. Which is stronger, the Turkic army of the Ashina and the southeast Yaqi of Qiji, or the alliance of the Xi king Ahuizheng and the Ahui clan of the Xi people? In Yun and Lei's view, the strength of these two is almost the same, and now the alliance between King Xi Ahuizheng and the Ahui clan of the Xi clan has been defeated by Li Fengyun, Li Fengyun's strength has not only not been detracted from this, but has made an explosive leap in a short period of time.
The so-called defeat of both sides is nothing more than their analysis and deduction of this battle, and they have already been beaten to their knees and surrendered by Li Fengyun, and they have no qualifications to question Li Fengyun at all, but, as far as the current battle situation is concerned, they really can't think of a way to defeat the Turks, and they are eager to know the answer from Li Fengyun's mouth.
Fortunately, Yuan An was "empathetic" and questioned Li Fengyun on their behalf, "Since the two sides are evenly matched, we have no possibility of encircling and annihilating the enemy army, why do we still carry out the plan of booby trapping, and we have to fight a defeat for both?" Why don't you change your strategy, hold on to the city, drag the Turks under the ghost city, and continue to consume the opponent? ”
"I don't have time." Li Dao, "I must defeat the Turks in the shortest possible time and move north." ”
"Ming Gong, if you want to go north, we can't lose both in this battle." Yuan An smiled bitterly.
"What am I afraid of?" Li Fengyun sneered, "Barefoot is not afraid of wearing shoes, don't say that you will lose both, even if the jade is burned, I am not afraid, but Ashina dare?" How dare he die with me? ”
