Comrade Lao Li nodded thoughtfully, and after thinking for a while, he turned his head to look at Li Jing: "Wei Guogong, do you have a good plan?" ”

Now the person Wei Hong hates the most is not Comrade Li, nor Qin Shubao, but Li Jing, an old thing, since he followed him to Horsehair Mountain, any mess has been pushed on Wei Hong, and this time is no exception. Li Jing's eyes rolled and said with a smile: "Holy Lord, why don't we listen to Wei Hong's opinion first?" Wei Hong, this kid has a lot of ideas, maybe he can really come up with some good strategy to control the enemy. ”

With these old things, Wei Hong always had a feeling of dire straits, but he couldn't get off the thief ship, so he could only bite the bullet: "Shengshang, according to the villain's opinion, whether the Hui Turks really want to attack Horsehair Mountain, or feint to attack Horsehair Mountain, Horsehair Mountain is of great significance to the Hui Turks." If we dare to be bold, maybe we can use the empty city strategy to create the illusion of internal emptiness. When the fat of Horsehair Mountain is in front of you, even if the Hui Turks did not plan to attack it, they will change their minds because of this. ”

"Empty city? Tell me more about it. Comrade Lao Li rubbed his chin and said softly.

"The purpose of the Hui Turkic suppression of the Horsehair Mountain is nothing more than two. One is to capture Horsehair Mountain and loot wealth. The other is to attract the northern cavalry to come to the rescue, and eat our entire northern cavalry in one bite at Horsehair Mountain. But no matter what the purpose, the final battle will be fought in Horsehair Mountain. In this way, we can completely fake the real thing, transfer the main force in the city, and deliberately release the rumors, saying that our men and horses are preparing to go around to the rear to intercept and return to the Turks, and the defense in the city is empty. After hearing the news, the Hui Turks will definitely send the main force to storm the Horsehair Mountain, and after the Horsehair Mountain is captured, whether it is to directly attack the hinterland and open the country, or to block the main force of our Horsehair Mountain outside the city, so that we will fall into a place of no return, it will be extremely beneficial to the Hui Turks, and they will never let go of this good opportunity. And once the Hui Turks launch a strong attack, let's encircle and annihilate them with the momentum of two wings and eat them in one bite! Wei Hong told his plan one by one.

After listening to Wei Hong's strategy, Qin Shubao had a slight doubt: "As you said, when the city is empty, it is impossible to prevent the onslaught of the Hui Turks, in case the Hui Turks capture Horsehair Mountain, won't our main army be in an extremely passive situation?" Although this move has the opportunity to defeat the Hui Turks, it also endangers the safety of the entire Tang Dynasty, and the pros and cons are balanced, which is really not a good policy. ”

Comrade Lao Li agreed with Qin Shubao's point of view: "Hu Guogong is right, what should we do if the defenders in the city cannot defend against the attack of the Hui Turks? ”

Wei Hong naturally thought of this question, and already had a strategy in his chest: "According to our understanding of the Hui Turks now, although the other party has some siege equipment, but not much, as long as the Jade Dragon Guard is left in the city, Mo said that it can completely prevent the Turkic onslaught, and at the very least, it can also delay some time and give the main force a chance to detour behind the enemy." ”

At the mention of the Jade Dragon Guard, Comrade Lao Li was silent, and the record of 3,000 Jade Dragon Guards easily defeating 10,000 enemy cavalry is still fresh in Comrade Li's memory. If the Jade Dragon Guard is used to defend Horsehair Mountain, maybe it can really delay the attack of the Hui Turks. After pondering for a moment, Comrade Lao Li asked Qin Shubao: "Hu Guogong, how long do you think it will take for the main force to detour behind enemy lines?" ”

Qin Shubao said without thinking: "The terrain in front of Horsehair Mountain is flat and open, if you want not to be discovered by the Hui Turks, you must go around a big circle, and it will take at least two and a half hours!" ”

Hearing this, Comrade Lao Li hesitated again. Although the Jade Dragon Guard is strong and its combat effectiveness is unparalleled, it is too far-fetched to hold back the 60,000 Hui Turkic army for two and a half hours with a number of 3,000. Once this strategy is decided, it will involve the safety of the entire Datang, and there is no room for the slightest mistake. After thinking about it, Comrade Lao Li took a deep breath, as if he had made a great decision, and asked Wei Hong: "How sure are you that the Jade Dragon Guard is guarding Horsehair Mountain for two and a half hours?" ”

After Wei Hong thought for a while, he said: "With my understanding of Yulongwei, as long as the city gate is not broken, I am sixty percent sure. Once the gates are breached, there is only a two-in-ten chance left. ”

Although Wei Hong's grasp is frighteningly low, Comrade Lao Li knows that as long as he goes to the battlefield, there will be no 100 percent certainty of victory in any battle, after all, the battlefield is changing rapidly, and often small problems will affect whether the war is won or lost. After a long period of consideration, Comrade Lao Li finally decided: "Horsehair Mountain must not be dragged on any longer, so let's give it a try according to Wei Hong's strategy!" Wei Hong, you said earlier that as long as the city gate is not broken, you are 60% sure, can you think of any way to strengthen the city gate? ”

Most of the ordinary fortified city gates are supported by wooden stakes, but once the opponent uses fire attack, this reinforcement method will pale and weak. Everything should be prepared for the worst, Wei Hong was prepared in his heart at the beginning, the city gate will be breached, but how to react after the city gate is breached has become the key: "The matter of the city gate can be handed over to the villain." However, in order to make this battle more secure, the villain thought that he should prepare another backup plan. After all, the Hui Turks are mostly cavalry, and if they see that the situation is not good and forcibly break through, our infantry will not be able to stop them at all. ”

Hearing this, Comrade Lao Li showed a smile: "Wei Hong, that gadget you have been building recently, could it be that you want to use it in this backup plan?" ”

was seen through by Comrade Lao Li, Wei Hong did not hide it, nodded and said: "That's right, the villain made something called 'iron dysentery' can effectively restrict the movement of horses." It is possible to spread the dysentery in the woods in advance and cover it with dead leaves, so that it is not visible from the outside at all. Once the encirclement was successful, the Uighur Turks wanted to break through, so they tried their best to drive them into the woods, which were the cemetery of the Uighur Turks! ”

Comrade Lao Li turned his head to look at Qin Shubao and asked, "Hu Guogong, what do you think?" ”

Qin Shubao nodded thoughtfully: "This plan is feasible, if you can dig trenches in the other three directions of the woods, like a big pocket, and collect all the Hui Turks, it will be even better." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Jing shook his head and vetoed: "Now that the weather is freezing and the ground is as hard as stone, if you want to dig trenches in the three directions of that forest, it is labor-intensive and time-consuming, it is a big project, and it is not feasible.
