In fact, Gao Yuanliang is not an exaggeration to say that he is "embarrassed", because without the order of the imperial court, it doesn't matter if the Tuanshan army goes to Duoyanwei, but if you want to enter the customs and enter the vicinity of Jingshi, it will be "ill-intentioned".

In the absence of an order from the imperial court or the edict of the Son of Heaven, it is impossible for the army to leave the garrison without permission - unless you want to rebel.

In Liaodong, due to the complexity of the military situation, the imperial court allowed the generals the power to "act cheaply" - but this was limited to Liaodong. If you send the army to Shenyang to greet Huang Taiji's family, the imperial court will naturally be "happy to hear it"; If you enter the customs with a large army, you will be labeled a "thief" when you board!

Therefore, the Tuanshan army was either like Zu Dashou's Guangning army, huddled in Tuanshan Fort and waited for the order of the imperial court. Either go to Duoyanwei on the Mongol border to intercept the army of Jiannu going south, and this option is almost an impossible task.

Duoyanwei is a steppe, mostly flat, which is just conducive to the movement of the Tartar cavalry, but not to the infantry combat. With infantry against cavalry, the grassland is definitely not a good battlefield - Gao Yuanliang knows this, and of course Zhang Li also knows it.

Therefore, the Tuanshan army was very "embarrassed" -- going to the steppe to block the Tartar army was to hit the stone with an egg, and it was not what the tension wanted to huddle in the Tuanshan fort, which was ......

But Tension had already seen through everything - uh, no - and had already figured out what to do.

Zhang Zhang smiled slightly, and said to Gao Yuanliang: "Yuanliang, this official heard that those Jiannu nobles love to read "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", and regard it as a peerless military book - well, it must be a general truth that the people in the market love to listen to storytellers. "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is naturally familiar to you for a long time, I don't know how you learned "The Art of War"? ”

Gao Yuanliang laughed, glanced at Zhang Zhang with admiration, and replied loudly: "The last general is studying - "The Art of War" is broad and profound. How can it be done quickly? ”

Zhang Zhang bowed his head slightly, and said with a smile: "In the past, Lu Meng of Wu was originally a martial artist in the Three Kingdoms, and after Sun Quan's persuasion, he gradually became knowledgeable. Now Lao Gao, you are also Wuxia Amun of my regimental mountain army! ”

Gao Yuanliang glanced at Zhang Li. said in a low voice: "No matter how powerful Lu Meng is, that is also Sun Quan's good teaching......"

After saying this, Gao Yuanliang looked at his nose and nose and heart, and fell silent.

Zhang Zhang was stunned for a moment, and secretly thought to himself: Old Gao Xing, is this a temptation for Young Master Ben? Sun Quan is a person who has been called the emperor, Lao Gao said so according to his own words......

Zhang Zhang suddenly remembered that in Nanjing City that day, when Daoist Xuanyang Zi saw him for the first time, he had met him. Is there really any "domineering spirit"......

In just a moment, tension diverted the topic, because now is really not the time to talk about this: "Well, Lao Gao, let me ask you, Sun Tzu has a saying in the Art of War: All those who fight, with the right match, with the odd victory." How do you understand this? ”

Gao Yuanliang replied without hesitation: "In battle, we always use regular soldiers to resist the enemy army, and use surprise soldiers to win victory-"

"And then?"

"Could it be that Lord Fei wants to sneak attack the Jiannu army?" Gao Yuanliang exclaimed. Immediately reacted again: "No, the army of Jiannu is at least more than 100,000. Even if the sneak attack is won for a while, our regimental mountain army will be immediately exposed - on the grassland, we can't outrun the four-legged Jiannu cavalry! ”

Zhang Zhang bowed slightly, Gao Yuanliang was quite thoughtful, and it was indeed as he said. Even if the Tuanshan army ambushed or won a sneak attack for a while, it was impossible to change the general trend. Fifteen thousand regimental mountain troops. What about winning for a while on the steppe? It is simply not feasible to destroy a few thousand or ten thousand enemies and immediately fall into a heavy siege of enemy forces several times their size.

Zhang Zhang stood up and walked to the north wall of the council hall, where a full map of Liaodong hung there. There were no military maps with contour lines in this era. The map of the Tuanshan Army is only more detailed than the map of the general Ming army.

The map distance of the places around Ning Yuanwei is relatively accurate, and the farther away is only the name of the city, and the specific distance is not visible.

Zhang Zhang pointed to a place with his finger, his eyes deepened, and said lightly: "Let's regiment mountain army, we want to fight this place." ”

Gao Yuanliang took a few steps forward, walked to the map, and when he saw clearly the place where Zhang Li was pointing, he was suddenly taken aback: "My lord, you want to fight here?!" ”

Zhang Zhang nodded, but did not answer directly, but began to give Gao Yuanliang a "lesson": "I told you earlier about "Sun Tzu's Art of War", but Sun Bin during the Warring States period explained in detail what is positive and what is strange. ”

After a pause, Zhang Zhang continued: "The form should be the form, and the shape is also; Invisible and formless, strange also. Odd is infinite, and there are points. ”

After all, Gao Yuanliang did not learn the kung fu of "being a good person", and he usually asked Li Fuzi for advice when there were obscure things in the military books, and then slowly studied them after translating them into the vernacular -- of course, Gao Yuanliang had an excellent understanding, and he would definitely have greater achievements in time, but now his writing skills are still weaker.

Zhang Zhang looked at Gao Yuanliang, who was a little incomprehensible, and patiently explained: "What this official just said is "Sun Bin Art of War. The words in "Qi Zheng" - Sun Bin of the Warring States period believes that using tangible things to subdue tangible things is called Zheng; And using the intangible to subdue the tangible is called strange. The reason why Qizheng has infinite combinations is that it can be combined and configured differently for various situations......"

After Zhang Li's explanation, Gao Yuanliang has a deeper understanding of the "Qi Zheng Theory" in the Art of War, and he cannot simply think that "Qi" is a "Qi Soldier".

It is not a good thing to blindly go off the rails for the sake of the generals, and to be dangerous.

"Fighting against Jiannu, regular soldiers are king. Although the official is not afraid of building slaves in a head-on duel, he must also make use of his strengths and avoid his weaknesses, and he must not fight them in the grassland and plains at the moment. ”

When Zhang Zhang said this, he suddenly changed his words: "If it is a period of time, if Song experiences the mass production of new weapons in the Tuanshan Fort Arsenal over there, it doesn't matter. But not yet, we need to win—"

Gao Yuanliang pondered the tension carefully, and felt that he had benefited a lot, and he said convincingly: "Thank you for your advice." ”

Gao Yuanliang glanced at the place on the map that Zhang Li had just pointed to, and his brows furrowed slightly: "My lord, if we fight here, there is a difficulty......

Zhang Zhang smiled and pointed to the location of Ning Yuanzhong's right on the map: "You go down and give an order, let Pan Batian go back to Tuanshan Fort immediately to discuss matters." ”

Gao Yuanliang seemed to understand a little, and hurriedly nodded in agreement...... (To be continued.) )
