Chapter Eighty-Seven: Eating His Offer
"I don't know what advice Mr. has, please teach me quickly." After these generals of the Yellow Turban Army left, Wang Bodang couldn't help but ask Li Shiqi for advice.
"Recently, the imperial army suddenly allocated half of the soldiers and horses out, and only half of the soldiers and horses outside the city remained. As for the remaining soldiers and horses, the first possibility is that they ambushed them outside the city. β
"It's possible." Wang Bodang couldn't help but show a disappointed expression on his face, he had also thought of this situation, but it was not very likely. If this Li Shiqi only has such great ability, I'm afraid it's just a faΓ§ade. However, it can be regarded as a talent, and you can also stay by your side and cultivate it.
"However, this is almost unlikely, and as for the remaining case, it is γγγγγγ"
When Li Shiqi finished speaking, Wang Bodang's eyes couldn't help but light up.
"That's right, if you follow what Mr. said, then everything can be explained, send some local forces to arm, and then cooperate with a small part of the imperial army to besiege Changguo City, so that you can achieve the situation of besieging Changguo City for a long time. It's just that, could it be that Xue Rengui arranged the rest of the elite troops outside the city? Take advantage of our anxiety and force us to go out and fight them? It's good to go to the rescue of Changguo City, and then when it is stalemate, suddenly kill it and catch us off guard? β
"Actually, I've been thinking about this for a long time. It is precisely because I figured out these things that I had the courage to come and express my humble opinion with the military advisor. β
"Sir is too modest, I have racked my brains for so long, and I haven't come up with a reason, since Sir can figure out what Xue Rengui's imperial army wants, it already shows that Mr.'s talent is already above Bodang, if Mr. is willing, Bodang is willing to give up the position of military advisor."
"By all means, it's just a 'bystander' below, if it's not for the military advisor, how can you be a 'fan of the authorities'?"
"Hahaha, sir, let's not give in, let's get down to business!"
"Okay, let's get down to business. According to my guess, it is very likely that the imperial army will ambush the remaining elites on the road that must be passed in Changguo City and Xi'an City, and the siege of Changguo City is a bait, let us send troops to support, and then take us by surprise on the way. β
Uncle Wang's eyes lit up and said, "Yes, this is a clever plan." I don't know what else the gentleman can do? β
"I have upper, middle, and lower plans."
"I want to hear about it."
"The next plan is to wait and see what happens, and if the enemy does not move, I will not move."
"This?"
"This strategy is indeed relatively modest, but it is not very bad, military advisor, you think, now the emperor is mediocre, and the most important thing is that he is very greedy for money. If we can't hold out, and then fight a protracted war with them, I believe that their emperor will definitely be unable to bear it because of too much military spending, so he will order them to withdraw their troops and reconcile with us, so that we can take the opportunity to ask the imperial court for a legal status and official position to control all our current territory, and it is best to control the entire Qingzhou, which is really not possible, we can also retreat to the second, at least half of Qingzhou will be left for us. Although the general trend of the world today is not clear, I believe that as long as careerists appear, the Han court will fall apart sooner or later, and we will try to develop vigorously before this to fight for the right to speak in the troubled times. β
Wang Bodang's eyes lit up again, he had been struggling to deal with Xue Rengui before, and he didn't think about other aspects, mainly because he lacked skills and didn't have the energy to imagine, but now after some attention from Li Shiqi, he suddenly realized.
"Sir, it's really talented, but this plan also has drawbacks."
"Yes, Xue Rengui can fight well, and the soldiers under his command are also the elite of the northern army of the imperial court, if we can't hold out, I'm afraid it will make their military morale boosted, and we are afraid that the army will be unstable, under the elimination of one another, I am afraid that it will be possible to lose, if Xi'an City is lost, our army is the general trend has gone."
"Yes, that's good."
"Among them, my plan is that we pretend to send troops to rescue Changguo City, but most of them send some old, weak, sick and disabled people, and the elite army is still on standby in the city, so Xue Rengui will think that we are in the plan, and after transferring some of our soldiers and horses, I am afraid that we will mobilize troops and horses to attack our Xi'an City. If Xue Rengui did not attack the city, but continued to send people to besiege the soldiers and horses we sent out to support Changguo City, then we could take advantage of the situation and kill them by surprise. Moreover, the core of this plan is still that after defeating them, he will ask the court for legal status, recuperate, and wait for a good opportunity. βγ
"What a plan! Such a clever plan, it is actually just a middle plan, and please ask Mr. to teach me a plan. β
"Don't be in a hurry, and listen to me. Let's start from the core, basically we can confirm that the imperial court went to besiege Changguo City, it must be some local armed forces, at most some county soldiers and county soldiers, and it may even be Xiangyong, the combat effectiveness of these people, I believe that the military division you know, is simply vulnerable. And what is the reason why our Changguo City is besieged and cannot break through? In my view of the Yellow Turban Army, it is really capable, not only can you get on the horse and charge into battle, no one can stop you, but you can also prohibit it, use troops smoothly, and you can also make decisions immediately, I am afraid that there are only you, General Xin Wenli, General Shang Shifu, and General Wei Chigong. Before, I thought it was General Wei Chigong who went to guard Changguo City, but when I saw him appear in the imperial army, I knew that he was a traitor. Therefore, there is no general available in Changguo City, so Xue Rengui was given a chance, but it is precisely because of this that we once again confirm that Xue Rengui besieging Changguo City must be a group of troops with low combat effectiveness, so we only need to send a general, and it is best to go outside Changguo City without alarming Xue Rengui's army on the road from Changguo City to Xi'an City, try every means to kill it, and then quickly control all the troops in Changguo City, and defeat the rabble outside the city with lightning speedThen, at the same time in Xi'an City, launched an attack on Xue Rengui's army outside the city, I believe that after our army is fully invested, Xue Rengui will definitely be unable to resist, and will definitely ambush the imperial army on the road to support, at the same time, I believe that our army in Changguo City has almost controlled the overall situation, and at this time we can bring troops to support us and besiege the imperial army. Then they will be overwhelmed and take them by surprise. In this way, I believe that according to the current emperor's temperament, it must be mainly Zhao'an, and at this time, they also know our strength, and I believe that we will also occupy an advantageous position in the negotiations. I'm afraid that even if we say that we want to control the whole of Qingzhou, it will not be difficult! β
"Yes, let's do what we do, but who is better?"
"I don't know about this, in terms of ability, I think that the only people in the Yellow Turban Army who can be qualified are the military division, General Shang Shitu, and General Xin Wenli. You have to sit in Xi'an City, so the best plan is to choose one of the generals, Shang Shitu General or Xin Wenli, but it is not very clear how the two generals are. Therefore, it is up to you to decide who will carry out this plan. β
"It's easy to say that the abilities of both generals can be competent. I'll talk to the two generals and let them decide for themselves. β
"That's fine."
"Come on, go and call the new general and General Shang."
Although before, Wang Bodang only let those miscellaneous Yellow Turban Army generals and small leaders go down, and Master Shang and Xin Wenli stayed, but let the two of them listen to the art of war, strategy, and it is also a very profound battle of wits and courage, they can't listen to it. Therefore, just now, when Wang Bodang and Li Shiqi were discussing the tactics of fighting Xue Rengui and Xue Rengui's intentions, the two of them went to train an elite of the Yellow Turban Army. There are not many people in this army, but this army is definitely not to be underestimated, because they are all warriors who have survived a hundred battles, and they are trained by Wang Bodang, Xin Wenli and Shang Master and Apprentice, and their combat effectiveness is very amazing. Moreover, in terms of vision, the biggest difference between them and ordinary Yellow Turbans is that each of them is a complete set of armor, and each of them is equipped with spears, short swords, daggers, and shields. Originally, there were indeed some people in the Yellow Turban Army who used part of various armors, but it was still more difficult to assemble a complete set, that is, the small leaders of the Yellow Turban Army, most of them just had a cuirass. And these people actually have a complete set for each person, which shows the importance attached to them.
"No."
"Strategist, have you discussed what the results were?"
"Yes, based on my inference and that of Mr. Li Shiqi, we think things may be γγγγγγ"
Wang Bodang also generally told Master Shang and Xin Wenli about their speculation about Xue Rengui's plan. However, it is a lot simplified, otherwise they would not be able to listen to it.
"So that's the case, the military advisor and Mr. Li are both gods!"
"This time, it is mainly due to Mr. Li Shiqi, so I plan to temporarily let Mr. Li Shiqi serve as our deputy military advisor, and when we defeat Xue Rengui's imperial army, I will communicate with Xiao Tianshi and let him appoint, just with Mr. Li Shiqi's ability, even if I let this military advisor out, I have nothing to say, I am willing! Hahaha! β
When the military advisor said this, he was tormented, and he didn't dare to take the lead in the next decision. Please take back this sentence! β
