Chapter 225: Countermeasures
After hearing the news, Fu Yan, Zhang Zun, Li Qiu, Huang Chong and other generals rushed to the county guard mansion as soon as possible, and everyone had shocked and incredible looks on their faces.
"Lu Kang actually attacked Fucheng, passed around the siege, and the soldiers were dangerous, this way of using troops is unheard of, if this Lu Kang is not a genius, he is a madman!" Fu Yan, who has been fighting for a long time, was also deeply surprised and felt unreasonable.
The Shu army in Yuxian County was not solved, and Lu Kang boldly gave up the siege and turned north to attack Fucheng, just like two people fighting against each other, without winning or losing, one of them went away, leaving his back to the other party, which was undoubtedly a fatal move. From Jiangzhou to Fucheng, a distance of nearly 1,000 miles, how to ensure the grain route and how to transport heavy materials in the case of the inability to clear the enemy in Yunxian? In anyone's opinion, Lu Kang is undoubtedly crazy.
Liu Yin said very calmly: "Lu Kang's general, the tiger of the gate, is arrogant in talent, he is indeed a rare military genius, he dares to intersperse detours in such a large depth, it is very human, it is not an exaggeration to call him a genius, and it is also appropriate to call him a madman, and it is very challenging to compete with such an opponent." ”
"Big brother, don't praise him, Fucheng is lost, I'm afraid the entire Shu is shaken, what should we do next?" Zhang Le straightened the tunnel.
The importance of Fucheng is self-evident, Lu Kang's almost crazy moves, I am afraid that it is really an earth-shattering disaster to the entire Shu Kingdom, and it is no wonder that Zhang Le and others are worried, the situation that Shu is now facing is to the point of life and death, how to resolve the crisis, everyone has no bottom in their hearts.
Liu Yin was indeed shocked when he got the news, when he calculated that Deng Ai had sneak attack on Yinping Trail, it was all stained with the light of crossing, and his knowledge of history made Liu Yin have plenty of time to deal with Deng Ai's surprise attack. But after Deng Ai, history quietly turned a corner and entered a new and strange era, all Liu Yin's knowledge about history was zero, and Liu Yin at this time was like all people. Without any sense of superiority, you can only rely on your own talent and wisdom to deal with this complex world.
Liu Yin is not a god, and naturally it is impossible to accurately predict Lu Kang's plan to attack Fucheng, even if he has doubts, Liu Yin does not dare to put his limited forces into Fucheng as if he is a treasure, in case Lu Kang does not attack Fucheng and attacks Yuxian, then this joke will be big. After all, the situation is ever-changing, and the fortification of Fucheng has been strengthened. Could it be that Lu Kang will still go to the net?
In the final analysis, it is still a problem of the limited strength of the Shu army, if Liu Yin has sufficient troops in his hands, he can completely block the middle, south, and north roads leading to Chengdu, and no matter what tricks Lu Kang makes, he will have to run into a nose of dust.
Fucheng is lost, Liu Yin will naturally not stay in frustration, and now it is in front of Liu Yin. It's not about complaining, it's about how to deal with it. How to defuse the crisis.
Based on all aspects of intelligence, Liu Yin quickly calmed down, although Lu Kang conquered Fucheng, but the situation was far from being out of control, Lu Kang's bold and crazy actions also brought endless troubles to himself. Deyang and Guanghan only stationed a small number of Wu troops, and it was obviously impractical to guard this thousand-mile grain route.
Lu Kang dared to march in such a large-scale roundabout, he must have no fear, and Lu Kang, as a famous general of a generation, is full of adventurous spirit. However, this kind of adventure is based on deep reflection and familiarity, without seventy or eighty percent certainty, Lu Kang does not dare to make a desperate bet, the logistics supply of tens of thousands of troops is not child's play, once it falls into a food shortage, any elite army will also become vulnerable.
So what does Lu Kang use to ensure that the thousands of miles of grain road are not cut off?
Liu Yin's eyes stayed on the map, and suddenly his eyes lit up, and the water was wet! That's right, Lu Kang definitely wanted to rely on the advantages of Jiangdong's sailors to open up the Fushui channel and transport grain to Fucheng by water transportation.
Above the water, the Jiangdong Navy is almost invincible, and if you want to solve the enemy in Fucheng, the Shu Army must make a fuss on the waterway.
Liu Yin fell into deep thought.
"In my opinion, immediately wave the army north, take advantage of the unstable foothold of the land resistance, and recapture Fucheng." Zhang Le saw that Liu Yin didn't say anything, and he was anxious, so he took the lead in speaking.
Zhang Le's suggestion was immediately opposed by everyone, Fu Yi said: "This proposal is not appropriate, the Wu army is more powerful, our army has fewer generals, and it is still reluctant to hold Yunxian. What's more, Fucheng is very strong, it is a fortress in the north of Sichuan, and the strength of the city defense far exceeds that of Yunxian, if there is no more than twice the strength of the Wu army, if you want to take Fucheng, there is almost no chance. ”
The Wu army invested at least 50,000 or 60,000 troops to attack Fucheng, more than double is 100,000 people, if you want to recover Fucheng, then at least you have to raise all the troops of Shu to have a chance, and it is only a theoretical opportunity, the siege is not so easy to fight, the Shu army of more than 30,000 people defended the county, and the land resistance of nearly 100,000 horses was helpless.
Zhang Le was greatly discouraged when he heard this, and said, "Is it just sitting back and watching the loss of Fucheng like this?" ”
Li Qiu said at this time: "The Wu people are in Fucheng in the north, and the supply of grain and grass for 50,000 or 60,000 horses all depends on the transfer from Jiangjiang Prefecture. ”
Zhang Zun shook his head and said: "The grain and grass supply of the Wu people all rely on water transportation, from Jiangzhou to Fucheng, if you want to cut off its grain route, you must first control Fushui, how can the Wu people's naval division warships be broken?" ”
When everyone heard this, they were all silent, the sailor division, it is indeed the shortcomings of the Shu army, the Shu army in addition to the sporadic warships in Jiangzhou and Yong'an, there is no formed navy at all, and the sailor of Eastern Wu is famous all over the world, how powerful the Wei State is, but several southern expeditions, none of them stop at the Yangtze River, because they do not have a naval army that can match it. Now that the Wu army controls Fushui and transports grain through Fushui, the men and horses of the Shu army have rushed to the riverside, and they can only sigh with admiration.
Just when the generals had nothing to do, Liu Yin smiled slightly and said: "There is no difficulty in this matter, if you want to break the Dongwu Naval Division, it is just a matter of raising your hands." Lu Kang dared to take a strange risk, and he would be trapped in Fucheng to death. ”
Everyone was puzzled and asked why.
Liu Yin said unhurriedly: "Fushui is different from the Yangtze River, the width of the river can reach several miles, the narrow part of the river is only a thousand steps, we can intercept the Dongwu fleet in the narrowest part of Fushui, use the bed crossbow to launch gunpowder arrows, use catapults to launch stone mines, no matter how powerful the Dongwu sailors are, they are only wooden warships, with the power of gunpowder arrows and stone mines, they can easily destroy the enemy ships, as long as the Fushui channel is blocked, and the grain and grass are heavy, Lu Kang will fall to death in Fucheng." (To be continued......)
