The strong attack of the Han army brought a lot of panic to the Goguryeo ministers and the remnants of Xianbei in Xiangping, in fact, when they entered Liaodong, they were most worried about when the Han army would attack. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Before the Han army attacked, they were still lucky, but when the real wolf came, they were all at a loss, frightened, and didn't know what to do.

When the king of Meichuan occupied Liaodong, it was so beautiful, and now he suddenly heard that the Han army was attacking, and even he couldn't sit still, but now he wants to give up Liaodong and retreat to Changbai Mountain, but he is 10,000 unwilling, compared with the prosperity of Xiangping City, Marudu City is a small land in the primeval forest, and King Mikawa has won the cities of Xiangping, where is he willing to go back to Marudu?

In fact, it is not false to say that King Meichuan is a frog at the bottom of the well, Xiangping is just a county town in Liaodong County, a county town in Liaodong County, and even a county town in the interior of the Central Plains may not be comparable, but in the eyes of King Meichuan, Xiangping is already a prosperous and rich city, if he really wants to see the prosperity of Luoyang Chang'an, it is estimated that his jaw can fall on the street.

Those ministers and generals of Goguryeo are all dirt buns, they are used to crawling in the deep mountains and old forests, and they all have the strength to do it, but when it comes to brains, they are more stupid than the other, and King Mikawa asked them for advice, all of them were stammering, and they didn't know how to respond, so angry that King Mikawa scolded: "A bunch of waste, this king wants you to come up with an idea, and you can't even let out a fart, what do you really want!" ”

Duan Qizhen stood up at this time and said: "The king is angry, now that Liu Yinlao is on an expedition, he only brought 70,000 horses to come, what is there to fear, there is a plan below, you can retreat the Han soldiers!" ”

King Mikawa immediately turned his anger into joy and said, "If the Duan Tou people have any clever plans, tell me quickly." ”

Duan Qizhen said: "The Liaoshui River is monstrous, runs through the north and south, divides the Liaodi into two, the east of Liaoshui is Liaodong, and the west of Liaoshui is Liaoxi. ”

Murong Diao shook his head and said: "It's not proper, it's not proper, when Sima Yi conquered Gongsun Yuan, Gongsun Yuan was camped according to Liaoshui, but Sima Yi secretly made a surprise attack, bypassed Liaoshui, took Xiangping directly, and finally beheaded Gongsun Yuan." Although this Liaoshui is dangerous, it stretches for hundreds of miles, and with our current troops, it is impossible to deploy a hundred miles, so I think that it is not a good strategy to defend it to the death. ”

Murong Diao has been in the Central Plains for a long time, and he still has a certain experience in the art of war of the Han people, Duan Qizhen proposed the method of defending according to the river, and Murong Diao immediately expressed his opposition, thinking that it is more passive to defend according to the river, and the river is long, and with such a small number of troops now, it may be difficult to prevent it from leaking.

Duan Qizhen was slightly displeased, snorted softly, and said, "Could it be that the second son has another trick?" ”

Murong Diao smiled and said, "I can't talk about high tricks, but I do have a plan to deal with the Han people." ”

King Michuan's eyes lit up, indeed, with only a hundred thousand soldiers and horses now, it is not easy to defend Liaoshui with all his might, Murong Diao said that there is another clever plan, and everyone's eyes are focused on him.

Murong Diao was not in a hurry, and said: "The Han soldiers are here, they must be Xiangping, from Liaoxi to Xiangping, they must take Shuangliudu, we only need to send men and horses, and ambush in Shuangliudu, and when Liu Yin leads the army to cross halfway, give him a half-crossing and attack, so it is not difficult to break the enemy." ”

Regarding the use of half-crossing to attack, Murong Diao thought about it, in the current situation, this strategy is definitely better than other methods, blindly defending Liaoshui is not a way after all, if you want to retreat, you have to defeat Liu Yin.

If you want to defeat Liu Yin, it is by no means an easy task, Tuoba Xianbei is so powerful, but within a year, he was destroyed by Liu Yin, which shows that Liu Yin is as powerful as a fight.

What makes Murong Diao secretly thankful is that Liu Yin's Eastern Expedition did not come out of the nest, but only brought 70,000 horses (Liu Yin led 90,000 troops, and falsely claimed to be 70,000 to the outside world, Murong Diao and others did not have time to investigate in detail, they all thought that Liu Yin only had 70,000 horses), which undoubtedly gave the Liaodong armies a chance to break Liu Yin, if Liu Yin really concentrated all his strength as if he was attacking Tuoba Xianbei, the result could only be that the Liaodong armies fled in despair, and there was no room for anyone to resist.

Maybe Liu Yin is too proud, maybe the grassland that has just been taken still needs to be garrisoned, in short, this time Liu Yin led the army to conquer Liaodong, only brought 70,000 troops, to whom it seems to be a big move, just with these 70,000 horses, I want to defeat hundreds of thousands of Goguryeo and Xianbei troops, it seems to be a bit of a fool's dream.

When King Meichuan heard that Liu Yin only had 70,000 people, he was indeed reassured, and now under the command of King Meichuan alone, there are more than 100,000 troops, plus 30,000 or 40,000 people from the rest of Xianbei, this force is much more than the 70,000 people of the Han army. At first, King Meichuan heard that Liu Yin had pacified Tuoba Xianbei and came to the east with victory, but now that he heard the exact news and had a feasible plan to resist the enemy, King Meichuan naturally stopped being arrogant and ordered the army to be requisitioned and prepared to ambush the Han army at the Shuangliu Ferry of the Liao River.

Unlike the Xianbei army, which was almost entirely cavalry, most of the Goguryeo army was not cavalry, and because they had been fighting in the mountains and dense forests for a long time, the Goguryeo people were more accustomed to mountain warfare rather than cavalry warfare, so the proportion of cavalry in their army was only about one-third, which was about the same as the proportion of infantry and cavalry of the Han army.

The speed of the infantry is naturally not flattering, and Murong Diao, who is accustomed to the cavalry combat mode that comes and goes like the wind, is obviously very dissatisfied with the procrastination style of the Goguryeo army, but he is now sending people under the fence, and he does not dare to leak this dissatisfaction, so he has to urge King Michuan more patiently, asking him to order to speed up the march and reach the designated ambush site as soon as possible.

Half-crossing and attacking is to wait until the enemy army has crossed the river halfway, and then suddenly launch an attack on the enemy, taking advantage of the opportunity that the enemy's formation is not stable and the men and horses have not yet crossed the river, to deal a devastating blow to the enemy.

Otherwise, if the enemy has not yet crossed the river and attacked in advance, it will not play the role of destroying the enemy, and if the attack is a little later, the enemy has successfully crossed the river and the formation is completed, then it will not be an ambush but a tough battle.
