It is indeed very tricky, the poisonous and stubborn Black Mountain thief, the combat effectiveness is much worse than Zhang Yan's Black Mountain Army Headquarters. When Ma Yunluo's brothers and sisters crossed the border, they encountered these thieves and soldiers setting up troubles, and the two brothers and sisters plus a few relatives beat hundreds of thieves and rats, which was not worth mentioning at all.

If you meet them in the plains, you don't need to ride out of the horse with iron, and a few hundred light horsemen can drive these guys around like sheep.

However, it's in the mountains, and it's the perfect terrain for these guys to play. In addition, the thieves did not seek victory, but only wanted to delay the time and itinerary of the Qingzhou army, which was very difficult.

If you want to win quickly, you can't do everything, and the result of rushing the troops is that a brave general like Tai Shici has also been plotted. This time it's okay, but who can guarantee that it's okay next time?

According to the information provided by the locals, there are indeed places in this rugged mountain road that suddenly widen or the mountain walls are not so steep. Once you are ambushed in such a place, it is not a matter of twisting your foot and smashing your armor out of the pit.

The defense of plate armor is very strong, but no matter how strong it is, it is not as strong as the power of heaven and earth. Just like the allusion of Zhuge Liang's burning of the Snake Valley, once he is ambushed in a dangerous place, what armor he wears is useless.

If you attack it step by step, the risk is smaller, but it will take a long time. Just as Zhuge Liang feared, if, as Wang Yu expected, Lü Bu had already fallen into an ambush by Cao Ying, who was besieging Lü Bu in Hanoi. Then, after receiving the reward of the Black Mountain thieves, Cao Ying could dispatch elite troops to the other end of Baicheng in a very short time.

The greatest advantage of the cavalry is mobility, and the difficulty of losing mobility and having to rush out from a narrow valley can be imagined. can't rush out, it's hard to retreat, isn't this how Qianman was forced to die by Yu Ban?

In front of him, it seems that there is only one detour left.

Since Cao Ying has made arrangements in advance, Taihang Cheng must not be able to go, and he can also enter Hanoi through the farther Yiguan Pass, but he has to go around in a big circle. But there is no risk at all, no matter how cautious Cao Ying is, it is impossible to seal all three roads.

Judging from Cao Ying's arrangement, he is not very sure whether Wang Yu will directly enter Hanoi from Shangdang, and even Bai Cheng here only means to prevent trouble.

The Black Mountain thieves are not very useful in siege warfare and field warfare, rather than letting them be an eyesore around them, and consuming precious military rations, it is better to keep them far away, and they can also prevent Wang Yu from suddenly killing from Shangdang, which can be regarded as waste utilization.

In a sense, the incident of encountering the enemy in Baicheng not only did not reduce Wang Yu's prestige, but deepened the generals' admiration and convincing of him.

The last time I received military information from the Central Plains was when the army set off from Bingzhou. Jia Xu's report only explained the latest changes, and did not even mention the corresponding speculation. Wang Yu accurately saw through the movements of Cao Jun and went straight to Hanoi.

It looks like it's blind, but the Qingzhou generals prefer to believe that this is the result of their own master's planning. Either it's the effect of that bag, or the lord has already counted the enemy dead.

As for encountering an enemy in Baicheng, this is a force majeure. Cao Ying is not a marionette, a master who can force Jia Xu to parry weakness, and it is certainly not surprising that he will take precautions in advance.

"Is it a detour...... Wang Yu was not very satisfied with the result of the military discussion, but there was no way, if you make a comprehensive judgment, only this method is the most practical.

If you leave now, the road will be delayed for almost three or four more days, and even if Cao Ying gets the news at the first time, it will be too late to block the road. Once they enter the territory of Hanoi, the wind and fire cavalry is like a dragon returning to the sea, and they can gallop at will.

Rather than fighting hard for several days in Baicheng, and facing the siege of the enemy army in the valley mouth area, a detour is the best policy.

"The lord is worried about the safety of Wen Hou?" Zhuge Liang saw Wang Yu's concerns and asked softly.

"Hmm." Wang Yu turned his head and looked at Lu Qiling, who was pale, his eyes were full of love and pity, and the answer he slowly said was not the answer he asked: "Everyone must be curious to know what is written in that bag and how it will change the battle situation, right?" ”

“…… Please make a public announcement. The generals looked at each other, completely unaware of what the lord meant by suddenly mentioning this matter, but this question has indeed bothered everyone for a long time, and it must be a lie to say that they don't want to know.

"It's a clever plan, but it's not as amazing as I imagined, and all the content can be summed up in four words......"

Wang Yu withdrew his gaze from his wife's face and looked at the generals under his tent, although the situation was not very good, but every resolute face was full of loyalty and fearlessness. Wang Yu had no doubt that no matter whether there was a mountain of swords or a sea of fire ahead, as long as he gave an order, these loyal and brave soldiers would rush forward without hesitation.

Even so, Wang Yu was not very sure how everyone would react when he told the truth.

Will you be disappointed? Or will it be laughed off? Or do you feel dissatisfied, or even resentful?

People's hearts are unpredictable, Wang Yu is a human being, not a god, and there is no way to speculate about this. There was only one thing he was sure of, and now was the time to unravel the mystery.

"These four words are: each fights for itself!" In the silence where the needle could be heard, Wang Yu's clear words were like a boulder smashing on the calm water, smashing everyone unconscious at once.

"What does it mean to fight for each other...... My lord, have you relieved the commander of the military advisor? Zhuge Liang looked at Wang Yu in a daze, with a look of disbelief on his face. At this moment, the young man with unparalleled eloquence suddenly stammered, and a very simple sentence was actually stumbled by him, and he paused seven or eight times.

Wang Yu didn't speak, just bowed his head slightly, obviously acquiescing.

"At this time, they are fighting on their own? Isn't that the same as not having a conductor? How the battle will evolve, I'm afraid only God knows! Tai Shi Ci was also stunned.

Remote command is not feasible, but as the supreme commander, the lord must at least know the battle situation, right? If all the troops and horses in Yanzhou are fighting on their own, then who else can grasp the trend of the war? Isn't this a complete relinquishment of the initiative?

"Ziyi, you're right, this kind of thing is indeed known only to God!" Facing Tai Shici's questioning, Wang Yu was not angry but happy, and nodded to him with a smile.

This abnormality was immediately discovered by Zhao Yun, who was as careful as a hair, he groaned for a while, and a thought suddenly flashed in his mind, and he blurted out without thinking: "I understand!" The lord just wants to confuse the situation, confuse Cao Ying's sight, and make him too late to respond! ”

This is the only way to explain it.

Cao Ying's strategy was designed by Jia Xu, Lu Bu, Guan Ping and Chen Dao. The discord meter obviously failed on Guan Ping's body, and Chen Zhi also had Wang Mo's guarantee that nothing happened, although it had a certain impact on the morale of the army, but overall, it could not be regarded as a complete success. However, Cao Ying's design for Lu Bu was completely successful, and he also succeeded in shaking Jia Xu, which was the most deadly.

In this era, there was no concept of psychological warfare, but there were many wise men in the world who were proficient in this way, such as Jia Xu, Cao Ying, and Guo Jia.

Psychological warfare cannot be seen or touched, but it is more dangerous than a contest of real knives and guns. Once you lose, the opponent takes the initiative, and it is very likely that every move will be seen clearly by the opponent.

Jia Xu's situation is like this, his weaknesses have been exposed, and under Cao Ying's aggressive momentum, he seems to be a little shrunken.

Of course, it is best if he can overcome it himself, but the problem is that Cao Ying will not give him such a margin. In this case, whether it is a change of generals or remote command, it is the next policy.

If you want to change the general, you can't find anyone, and more than half of the talents that Wang Yu has recruited are underage. No matter how early he is, he can't be the opponent of a scheming hero like Cao Ying. What's more, the two most outstanding and promising to take over Jia Xu's class are not in Yanzhou.

Tian Feng has this qualification and knowledge. But the problem is that since he was a minister under Wang Yu, Tian Feng has devoted himself to internal affairs, and he has not participated in military aircraft for many years, so it is equally unrealistic for him to take over.

"So the lord ordered the various departments to fight their own battles?"

"Wen Yuan and Wen Ze are both talented generals, even if they are allowed to take charge alone, they may not fall behind against Cao Ying. Tan Zhi is a little younger, but I ordered Wen to rush to Juyang to join him...... Gao Tang's side is a bit dangerous, but Bo Yan is talented, Uncle Zhi is meticulous, and Mo Jie, who is good at dancing with long sleeves, should not be a big problem......"

The reason why Wang Yu dared to do this was because he believed in the talents of the generals under his command, and these talents would bring great trouble to Cao Ying.

"Losing the overall command is very dangerous in the long run, but within a month or two, Cao Ying may not be able to figure out the clues and find their own flaws, but there will be a feeling that a mouse is pulling a turtle and has no way to start. This somewhat chaotic strategy will disrupt Cao Ying's deployment and disintegrate the advantages he has established in advance. However, there is a major weakness to this strategy......"

Wang Yu chose to uncover the mystery at this time, in order to explain the following. In fact, without him pointing out the answer, Zhuge Liang and Zhao Yun, who reacted the fastest, had already guessed that they were not far from ten.

"That's right, it's Hanoi! Wenhou's soldiers and horses are equivalent to the guest army, and they have not been able to integrate into the overall strategy, and this time it is even more ...... What I'm most worried about is that Cao Ying finds that Yanzhou is difficult to attack, and he will hurt my ten fingers, so it is better to cut off my arm and aim at Wen Hou! ”

"Hmm!" Lu Qiling was shocked when she heard this, her hand was already covering her mouth, but she still couldn't hide her choked cry. The girl suppressed herself and did not cry out in public, but two lines of tears had already flowed down her cheeks, like a string of pearls, which was heartbreaking.

"In love, Wenhou and I have a friendship with Weng's son-in-law; In Li, the Puyang Army is an ally of our army...... No matter whether it is reasonable or reasonable, our army must arrive in Hanoi as soon as possible and launch a rescue ......" Wang Yu did not look back, but the higher his tone, the more sonorous and powerful the words, there seemed to be a voice of gold and iron: "Therefore, in this battle, there is no advance or retreat!" ”

"There is no advance or retreat!" The generals responded in unison, and the shouts shattered the silence of the night, echoing among the mountains and valleys.
