Wei Zheng smiled slightly: "Is the lord so confident in coming to Hu'er?" In my opinion, although this person is well versed in the art of war, and his sons can also be called brave and good at fighting, he is not a person who can destroy Goguryeo, which Wei is convinced of. ”

Wang Shichong said softly: "Xuancheng, this is also the first time you have contact with Laihu'er, so you dare to draw conclusions and label him like this?" Judging from today's war, Laihu'er can be said to show the true qualities of a famous general, even if Yang Su and Gao Ying use troops, it is nothing more than that, why can't he take Pyongyang? ”

Wei Zheng shook his head: "The lord himself knows it, otherwise he wouldn't be so worried about looking at Pyongyang here, so why bother asking me?" ”

Wang Shichong smiled slightly: "Maybe what you see is different from what you think of is different from mine, say it bluntly, Xuancheng." ”

Wei Zheng nodded: "Although Laihu'er performed well in today's battle, this kind of victory cannot be replicated, this Goguryeo army is almost Gao Jian's one-man army, as soon as Gao Jian dies, the morale of the whole army collapses, and it almost collapses without a fight, and the rest of the thing is what any general can do, that is, to rush and kill the army and completely defeat the enemy army, so Laihu'er just performed well in this set of serial plans to ambush Gao Jian in front, if it is said to defeat 100,000 Goguryeo troops, hehe, it is really not something to boast about, on the contrary, His arrogance and stubbornness caused nearly half of the 100,000 enemy troops to run away, and this alone shows that he is far from being a good general. ”

Wang Shichong let out a soft "oh" and asked: "The pursuit is not effective, mainly because he is entrusted to a non-person, that Xu Gai is just a local tyrant owner who came to join the army halfway, far from having prestige in the army, and he does not dare to deal with those light cavalry who come to protect his son, these people are open to money." Ignoring the military order, he came down to loot and missed the pursuit, I'm afraid this can't be blamed on the head of Laihu'er. ”

Wei Zheng shook his head: "No, lord, as the boss, you must know people." can make the best use of people, although the command of Laihu'er is good, and the training can be called excellent, but it lacks the most basic point of a famous commander, that is, iron-like discipline, in other words, he can't do orders and prohibitions, so no matter how strong the combat effectiveness of his troops is, this is the only one. It is destined that they are nothing more than a rabble, and the courage of the horseman is not to be feared! ”

Wei Zheng looked at Wang Shichong's thoughtful face, his eyes were blazing, and he continued: "Today's first iron cavalry impact, the fight is very beautiful, and the time for the five thousand iron cavalry to attack is just right, which is the advantage of coming to protect the child. But after defeating the 40,000 enemy troops in front, these cavalry were not the first to rush into the wall. Let the infantry clean up the battlefield behind, but in order to seize the battle merits, repeatedly charge in front of the camp, to slaughter those Goguryeo troops who have lost their combat ability, snatch their heads, and miss the first good opportunity to pursue the enemy army. ”

Wang Shichong nodded: "Not bad." But no matter how clever the commander is, it is impossible to anticipate all the details, 5,000 iron cavalry rushing into the army formation of 40,000 elite soldiers, although there is an advantage that the enemy commander is newly dead and falls into chaos. However, if the enemy army is well-trained and has someone to take over the command, it can also stabilize its position in a short time, how can he order not to cut off the head and kill the enemy army before breaking through the front of the enemy's fortress, but to rush straight into the village? ”

Wei Zheng said with a smile: "A wise commander should take into account the possibilities on the battlefield, even if he can't give orders to the soldiers, he must give orders to the generals who lead the charge, let them act at the opportunity, and take the pursuit and killing of a large number of living forces behind the enemy army as the primary task, my lord, if it were you, I'm afraid I would have given this order a long time ago." ”

Wang Shichong smiled: "That's right, Xuancheng, you go on." ”

Wei Zheng continued: "Failing to chase and kill the Goguryeo army in the village with iron cavalry at the first time was the first mistake, and the lord and Zhou Fashang both saw this and spoke to him, but his second mistake came immediately, letting 10,000 light cavalry charge along with Xu Gai to chase and kill the fleeing enemy. In my opinion, he didn't want to kill more enemy troops at all, but wanted these cavalry to clean up the battlefield in the village and loot the baggage and money of the Goguryeo army. ”

Wang Shichong said softly: "How can you see it?" ”

Wei Zheng sighed: "First of all, if Laihu'er really intends to annihilate the enemy, he will not let the cavalry pass through the village head-on, but take a detour, avoid the Dazhai that is on fire everywhere, and turn a few miles from the side, such a distance will pass through the Dazhai a little farther, but the time can be reduced a lot, but he chose to let Xu Gai lead the troops to kill from the Dazhai, it can be seen that his purpose is those treasures and baggage, not fleeing the enemy." ”

Wang Shichong shook his head: "If this is the case, he should let his son, Ru Laihong, come to Yuan and bring them these ten thousand cavalry, why do you want to find Xu Gai, an outsider?" Could it be that Xu Gai will understand his idea and resolutely implement it? ”

Wei Zheng smiled slightly: "Lord, the private looting of treasures on the battlefield is a crime of violating military discipline, if someone reports it, after the imperial history is verified, it is necessary to eat melons, of course he can't let his son do this kind of thing, the 10,000 cavalry is brought by Hu'er himself, and the tens of thousands of infantry in front of the village are Zhou Fashang's department, so he is competing for time with Zhou Fashang, while using 5,000 iron horsemen, by harvesting people's heads, Zhou Fashang's infantry is blocked from the wall, and at the same time, in the name of chasing and killing the fleeing enemy, let these 10,000 light horsemen enter the village, as long as these treasures are found." , naturally fell into his pocket. ”

Wang Shichong said with a smile: "But although these soldiers were recruited from Hu'er, they were to be disbanded after the battle, and he let these soldiers rob the treasure, and in the end they couldn't fall into his own hands, what good is it?" You must know that when the soldiers disperse and return to the government, they will return to the dynasty, this is the military system of the Sui Dynasty, and it is impossible for a southern general like Lai Hu'er to have his own direct private army. ”

The corners of Wei Zheng's mouth hooked: "Is this the lord testing Wei's understanding and understanding of the Sui Army in the past few years?" You obviously know all this, but you want Wei to analyze it, so it doesn't show your wisdom. ”

Wang Shichong nodded: "I'll see if what you think is exactly the same as me." ”

Wei Zheng smiled dumbly and said, "How did the lord learn Yang Guang's words." Okay, I'll just say it straight, now Laihu'er is asking those military judges to search for the sergeants who robbed the money during the day, each of them left a little money, but most of the treasures were confiscated and confiscated, this public is Laihu'er's own small treasury, with this money, he can expand his military government after returning to China in the future, recruit more powerful subordinates, and purchase horses and armor, isn't this exactly what every general in the Great Sui who has the right to open the government does? Private armies, how can they maintain their families without money? (To be continued......)
