Chapter 22: Li Jing's Strange Behavior
Li Jing carefully checked the ink on the letter, looked at the secret mark again, and made sure that it was correct, before taking the letter and watching.
"Beautiful!"
Li Jing meticulously pondered word by word, and after reading it to the end, he was still unsatisfied, took out the map, and every time he looked at a paragraph, his fingers moved with the progress of the battle situation on the map, and repeated it twice, before he put away the letter well, only to find that the messenger was still waiting for instructions not far away, and he was busy apologetic: "I am in a daze, don't blame the messenger." Go back and get back to your life...... Just say that I received the letter, played beautifully, and continued to keep it. ”
Seeing the messenger leave, Li Jing's eyes fell on the map in a daze: the mention he gave to Luo Shixin was fast, just because he had insight into Jieli's military intentions.
Li Shimin will divide the army into three routes, of which the most important one is not him, Li Jing or Li Shiji, but Luo Shixin in the middle.
This is arranged according to the character and ability of the three top generals of the Tang Dynasty, Li Jing used his troops to re-plot, extremely low-key, but he was always taken by surprise and hit the enemy's vital point in a battle. Li Shiji is not a bull-nosed veteran in Romance, a half-immortal character, and a fierce general, charging into battle, unambiguous, but he still takes strategy as the first. And Luo Shixin is certainly not bad at strategy, but his real strength lies in fighting hard battles, daring to fight hard battles, and being good at fighting hard battles.
Therefore, the frontal assault is suitable for Luo Shixin's combat style, and the left and right flank attacks are also suitable for the flexible strategies of Li Jing and Li Shiji.
But if the left and right wings want to be truly flexible, Luo Shixin's appearance in the middle is extremely important. The greater the pressure on the Turks from Luo Shixin's army in the center, the more their left and right flanks could be adapted to different situations. Deliver the killing blow. On the contrary, if Luo Shixin is blocked in the middle, the two armies on the left and right flanks will also be restricted, just like a lone army going deep. Unable to exert real power.
Luo Yi is proficient in the art of war and tactics of the Central Plains, and was one of the several generals with high status in the Tang Dynasty, so he has a special understanding of the situation of the Tang Army. It is likely that with this understanding, the path of Luo Shixin will be blocked.
Li Jing didn't think that Luo Yi was Luo Shixin's opponent, but in order to completely remind him, let him not give Luo Yi too much time to prepare. Go straight to the battle.
Even he couldn't have imagined that Luo Shixin would fight so beautifully and thoroughly, and it only took one day of effort. Directly the Turkic front collapsed, and the whole line was defeated.
From Li Jing's strategic vision, it is not difficult to see what the true meaning of Luo Shixin's battle is, and why this battle was won so quickly: the reason is the word "fast"!
Fast!
It's super fast, it's super fast!
The fast Turks had absolutely no time to be prepared. The fast Turks could not keep up with the pace of the battle. can only be beaten passively.
Thinking of the sentence in the letter, "launch a lightning-like attack", Li Jing couldn't help but read: "Swift as lightning, fierce as dry thunder, playing the rhythm of the fast play to the fullest......" Suddenly the lightning flashed in his mind, and his finger was often drawn on the Shuo Fang, pointing directly at the Turkic Khan Court on the map, and then at the Yanmen Pass Mayi, diagonally stroked. It also pointed directly at the court of the Turkic Khan, and finally found their Zhimorin on the map. It is also a fierce stroke, a three-way army, and the three most direct offensive routes, directed at the Turkic Khanate.
"Fast, fast, fast, if all three roads are fast, and all three roads launch a lightning-like attack, how should Jieli resist?"
"Flee north, or flee west?"
"The north is the bitter cold land of Mobei, and the Western Turks are ...... in the west"
The fist slammed three times on the table, and a vague grand strategy gradually organized and presented in his mind......
With Shixin's character, with the help of fast, he played his own feeling and rhythm, and he will definitely continue to the end without fear of heaven and earth...... The key is Mao Gong, presumably he also got the same battle report. I don't know what he thinks, is it to play his own style, or to cooperate with Shixin's fast? After only thinking about it for a moment, he said to himself affirmatively: "Mao Gong's strategic vision is not inferior to mine, and he will not fail to see the advantage of playing fast...... He must have chosen to cooperate. ”
The mind is getting clearer and the strategy is becoming more and more obvious......
Li Jing's pair of deep, wisdom-filled eyes became brighter and brighter, like stars in the sky, dazzling and dazzling.
"Someone, Xue Wanche called over!"
Li Jing's attention was decided, and it was urgent to call Xue Wanche.
Like Xue Wanjun, Xue Wanche also had long hair on his head, looking mighty and handsome, and his face was also full of joy.
This conquest of foreign races and the achievement of expanding the territory is something that a military general dreams of. Xue Wanche is extraordinary, full of ambition, and intends to make a good profit in this battle and achieve great achievements. Along the way, he also kept thinking about ways to break the enemy, so as to show his talent in front of Li Jing.
Like Luo Shixin, in the face of the arrangement of the Tang Dynasty, Jieli also arranged two people to defend Li Jing's army.
The first to bear the brunt of this is the Wuyuan City occupied by Ashina Sheer, followed by Jieli's son Desire Valley.
Ashina Sheer has both wisdom and bravery, can fight well, and has benevolence and righteousness, the entire Ashina tribe is united, not an opponent that can be dealt with lightly, but the talent of Desire Valley is average. Fighting the valley of desire and luring Ashina Sheer to save it, so as to annihilate it, is the game-breaking tactic he proposed. This method was appreciated by Li Jing at that time, and at this time they were about to approach the Turkic defense line, thinking that Li Jing was going to take him as the vanguard, and they were extremely excited.
"General Xue, you immediately lead the soldiers and horses of your headquarters as the vanguard, and go straight to Wuyuan City to call for battle. Regardless of day and night, by all means, insults and shouts, the Turks in the city were forced to go out of the city to fight. When they come to fight, they fight back, and if they don't come, they continue to scold! Li Jing issued a military order.
Xue Wanche was shocked and said, "This ...... The chief manager, Ashina Sheer is not a character who can be provoked lightly, although these five originals are not a strong city. But the Turks are good at shooting, and Ashina Sheer is proficient in the tactics and tactics of our Central Plains people, and the Turkic people in the city are very respectful of their leaders, and they are united in their hearts, and if they want to take Wuyuan in a short time, they will have to pay a great price. It is better to attack the valley and tempt Ashina Sheer out of the city. ”
Li Jing said with a smile: "I have my own measure in this battle, and my purpose is not to take down the Wuyuan, but to surround but not fight, and trap Ashina Sheer in the Wuyuan." ”
Xue Wanche's mind was a mess, he didn't know what to say, and even suspected that Li Jing was a two hundred and five, in vain, what kind of nonsense was this.
Their purpose is to destroy the Turks and fight Jieli, but Li Jing besieged Wuyuan City with a left-wing army for the sake of a small Ashina Sheer and an insignificant Wuyuan City.
Li Jing saw that Xue Wanche did not accept the military order, and said sharply: "Xue Wanche, take the order!" ”
Xue Wanche was shocked, and he was not convinced, but he had to obey his orders. After all, Li Jing is the chief commander, and he is also the commander-in-chief of the three-way army. (To be continued......)
