The night is already very deep. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

However, the military meeting at Zengshan Pass was still being held.

At the end of this day and night, Zhi Du discussed countless plans with his subordinates, but they were all rejected in the end.

The reasons for the veto are varied, but one deadly threat is the culprit behind the abortion of these programmes.

That is: if Heyin is controlled by the Huns, then the condescending Hun cavalry can stand on a high place and shoot at the Han army as much as possible.

And the Han army in the lowlands can only fight against it by shooting from the back.

It's a loss.

To make matters worse, the Han army marched from the lowlands to the highlands.

It is equivalent to fighting the Huns while climbing the mountain.

But it's not without success.

At the very least, the officers of the whole army have a very clear understanding of the purpose and strategic tasks of this expedition, and they have carefully remembered the terrain and geography near Heyin.

After all, for a whole day, everyone squatted in front of the map together, took out the known terrain and landforms of Heyin and broke them up, looking for a breakthrough place by place.

Countless brain holes diverged, and countless plans were proposed.

It is equivalent to personally inspecting the terrain of Heyin and its surroundings.

In addition, everyone has at least one thing in common.

"If you want to take Heyin, you must first occupy the nameless high hill in the south of Heyin!" Zhidu pointed to a place on the south side of Heyin on the map, and said to everyone: "Here, according to the spies, it is about 300 miles long from east to west, about 100 miles wide from north to south, with mountains, sand dunes, and plains!" ”

But that's not all.

This is a typical plateau-to-hilly landform.

The north is high and the south is low, and the difference between the north and south ends is huge.

But it just happened to be across the river from Heyin.

If the Han army can find a way to occupy this nameless height, it will be equivalent to opening up the passage to Heyin.

However, it is a pity that before today, the Han army did not pay enough attention to this place.

The local roads and mountains are not too clear.

Moreover, this place is the traditional pasture of the Xiongnu tribe.

There should be Xiongnu tribes living in the local area.

The Han army had to seize the place before it was discovered by the enemies of Heyin, and wipe out the local Xiongnu tribes while laying a foundation.

Otherwise, once the enemy in Heyin discovered the Han army, then the Han army would fall into the flanking attack of the Hun cavalry.

But that's the crux of the matter.

It's winter, and the entire plateau is depressed and even covered with snow.

Any action of the Han army may be discovered at any time.

After all, people stand tall and see far.

Zhidu did not dare to bet on the Huns, and would not send scouts and rangers to look out on the slopes and commanding heights near the plateau.

He was well aware of the weight of the responsibility on his shoulders.

More than 15,000 soldiers, generals, and their families were counting on themselves.

In addition, there are tens of thousands of people behind him.

This is the rise and fall of hundreds of thousands of people, all of whom are dependent on his decisions.

If a son is wrong, he will surely die.

But what about the hundreds of thousands of crying fathers and villagers and the children who are crying and calling for their fathers?

Zhi cannot, and must not act recklessly.

Zhidu looked up at the generals and said, "All the gentlemen, let's talk about how our army should seize this place before the Huns can react!" ”

Yizong is out of the fortress, and Heyin will definitely be controlled by the Huns.

Only a fool would fail to grasp and control such a strategic point.

Therefore, for the Han army, it is completely unrealistic to occupy Heyin first.

This has been proven by many deductions today.

Only by seizing this nameless high ground can we be sure of fighting the enemy of Heyin.

Zhi Du had some thoughts in his heart.

But he also wanted to hear from the audience.

One person counts the short, three counts the long, and the atmosphere of discussion within the Han army often has miracles.

It's like this nameless plateau, no one has thought about it before.

But in the ongoing discussions, its role and strategy immediately came to the fore.

As soon as Zhidu's voice fell, one of the Sima of the Thorn Gate Army said impatiently: "General, our army may be able to ride around the big river, appear from its side, and immediately seize the central high ground here!" ”

As soon as Zhi Du looked at the map, he rejected his proposal, shook his head and said, "Time is not enough!" If you want to go around, even if it is a light ride, it will take at least five days......"

In fact, if you want to bypass the river and enter the place from the side, it will take the Han army more than five days!

It is impossible for a man and a horse to move endlessly.

All need to rest.

And in such a terrain, after a detour of two or three hundred miles, the men and horses are afraid that they have already exhausted themselves before they can attack.

If you want to make a detour, it will take at least eight days!

But the problem is that the Zhidu Department does not have eight days at all!

When Sima heard this, he also lowered his head, knowing that his thoughts were indeed a little naïve.

But his idea inspired another person.

The man stood on the side of the map, looked at a place marked as a lake about fifty miles below the nameless plateau, and suddenly asked, "General, do you have any detailed information about this Ze?" ”

Zhidu looked there, nodded and said: "Yes, but not much, I only know that this Ze is called Huze, and the Huns often drive livestock here to drink water......

When the man heard this, he was overjoyed and said, "If the general can give the last general 300 men, the last general can dedicate the nameless high ground to the general!" ”

When Zhi Du heard this, he looked at the man and said, "What is Sima Li's plan?" ”

To be honest, Zhidu actually didn't think that this person could have any clever ideas.

Because he is the Sima of the Loyal Army.

Loyal and brave soldiers, loyal and brave are enough, but most of the officers are irregular generals of the family.

Even many people have not received systematic military education at all.

In the past, the Han family would not have passed on those valuable military books and writings to them.

Because they are Huns, although they are Guiyi Huns, in the end, they are still not deeply sinicized.

It was not until the formation of the Loyal and Brave Army this time, these people contributed a lot, showed their worth, and were accepted.

Li Zhe straightened his chest and looked at Zhidu with a flushed face.

He knew he was about to reach a turning point in his life.

If you can make a meritorious contribution this time, then you can use this meritorious service to cleanse your blood and body from the sins, become an officer of the Han Army, and even get a commendation from the Son of Heaven!

If this is the case, then the little lady of the Wang family and his family will definitely be happy to see the changes in themselves, and they are willing to entrust him with their lives.

Therefore, Li Zhe clenched his fists and said excitedly: "The last general has heard before that there are mountains and sand dunes on that high ground, and they occupy a lot of land? ”

"Yes!" Zhidu nodded: "According to intelligence, the sand dune belt and the mountains account for at least half!" ”

Li Zhe bowed his hand and said, "General, that's right!" ”

He said: "The general doesn't know, the Huns and Huns all live on nomadism, nomads, water is the most important!" He pressed his hand on the lake: "And the nameless highland, with a large difference between the north and the south, the herdsmen in the north will naturally go to the big river to drink, and the herdsmen in the south will come to this lake to drink!" ”

"Even if it weren't, there would be people from the surrounding tribes and herdsmen who would come here to fetch water!"

"So......" he said, blinking his eyes, "the last general will only need three hundred horsemen, pretending to be herdsmen who have gone to this lake to drink, and then take the opportunity to approach the tribe ...... at the southern end of this highland" (to be continued). )
