After the military mobilization was completed, the battle plan was announced.

The battle plan had been drawn up beforehand. He worked out a general operational policy, while Wang Yan was responsible for filling in the details and some deficiencies. Zhao Pu's is okay in terms of the overall situation, but not for specific operations; And Wang Yan is good at details, which just makes up for his shortcomings.

The core of the battle plan is to resist layer by layer, relying on the mountainous terrain to eliminate the living forces of the Jin army.

The army of 6,000 men was very scattered on the whole, there was no dense formation, and there was no traditional way of fighting, and some were just constantly gathering and scattering to destroy the enemy.

It can be said that it is a trinity of harassment warfare, movement warfare, guerrilla warfare, etc.

In the end, Zhao Pu concluded: "The Jin army is very strong, and it is not easy to finish the Yan Lou room. The Jin army is very strong in combat, and it is difficult to defeat the Jin army. Drag the fat to the thin, the thin to death, keep moving and running, not to fight with the enemy face to face, but when the enemy wants to fight, we go; When the enemy wants to rest, we harass; When the enemy wants to leave, we pursue. In a word, grasp the initiative in the war and lead the enemy by the nose, not by the enemy! ”

The generals looked at each other and felt a little unacceptable,

The Song army thought that the big battle was not tens of thousands of horses, setting up a battle formation, and then facing the gong and drumming in front of the enemy, defeating the enemy in a dignified manner. There, as this time, they used rogue tricks to defeat the Jin army. However, after Zhao Pu's brainwashing during this time, he can be regarded as understanding that a white cat and a black cat, a cat that catches a mouse, is a good cat.

"Isn't that a bit despicable!" Wang Yan coughed, a little unacceptable.

"Do you think I want to be despicable? It's not that our Song army is not strong in combat, and in terms of archery, we are not as good as the Jin army; In terms of the power of cavalry warfare, we are inferior to the Jin army. In the field, the Jin army can change horses and fight again, and it can fight with wheels, but what about us? It can only be a live target standing in the suburbs, arranged in an infantry formation, and let the Jin army attack, after a day of fierce fighting, the Jin army can't kill us, and we ourselves are tired to death! ”

"The art of war has clouds, with the right fit, with the odd victory! Because we can't fight head-on; I had to be strange and do more. Zhao Pu said helplessly, "The infantry has a disadvantage against the cavalry, and the infantry can only be placed in formation, let the cavalry attack, resist the impact of the cavalry, and win; Unable to withstand the onslaught of the cavalry, the whole army collapsed and lost. The cavalry moves extremely fast, can fight if you win, attack if you can't win, and can repeatedly attack, from all angles. ”

"The infantry, on the other hand, is a lot of sorrow, and can only stand still in place, once the formation is moved, the formation is very likely to be scattered, and finally collapse; I wanted to pursue the cavalry, but I couldn't keep up with the speed. The only chance of victory was probably to plunge the cavalry into a mountain of spears and knives of the infantry and kill the master with indiscriminate punches. That's a mistake that only a fool would make, though. Smart people often don't do such stupid things, they often keep attacking on the periphery, constantly shooting with bows and arrows, constantly consuming the physical strength of the infantry, a battle is a day's time, when the physical strength and energy of the infantry are consumed, and the arrows and feathers of the bow and crossbow are consumed about the same, find the weak link, and break through the battle formation in one fell swoop. ”

"And although the infantry can arrange tripping ropes, traps, antlers, chariots, crossbows and other defenses, it is destined to be passive. Blind defense, after all, there will be a moment of failure. There is no turtle shell that cannot be broken, and offense is the best defense. ”

Zhao Pu said: "Don't overestimate your own strength, and don't underestimate the enemy's combat power." In the battle of Yehuling, why did our army win? That's because the Jin army is slack and can't tolerate the scorching heat, most of the armor on his body has been removed, and the bow and arrow have also been taken off in order to prevent moisture and become loose. As a result, in that battle, only a small number of bows and arrows participated in the battle, and most of the soldiers fought without armor, but our army was a surprise attack, unexpected, and gave full play to the advantage of close combat, looking at the wonder of the mandarin duck array, beating the Jin army alive. If the Jin army is on guard, the soldiers put on their armor, and the bows and arrows are still wound. Relying on the infantry to resist at a close distance, the archers strike from a distance, and then send the cavalry to attack and assault, and the final victory and defeat are unpredictable! “

"Don't care about the way you fight, don't pay attention to the uprightness, just ask for victory, victory! In a word, the tree dies, and the man lives. Use your brains, fight flexibly, don't be rigid in thinking and tactics! ”

………………

At the moment when Zhao Pu arranged the combat mission, Bianliang exploded again at this time.

The Shaanxi Army was the elite of the Song Army; Among the seed divisions, he is a famous general of the Western Army. The three-way army, totaling more than 200,000 people, rescued Taiyuan, but the result was three battles and three defeats, all the elites were lost, and the soldiers were martyred, Yao Gu, Zhang Jing and others fled in a hurry, and the situation was corrupted to the extreme.

At this moment, it is already June, and the weather is hot, but in the lecture hall, many ministers are lifeless, as if they have died of their father.

Song Qinzong sat on the chair, his face was a little pale, the severity of the situation was far beyond his expectations, the Jin army was like an invincible demon, the Western Army was only less than a month, it was all wiped out, and the speed of defeat was too fast, is this still the Shaanxi army that defeated the Western Xia, quelled the Fangla rebellion, and dominated the side?

Why is it that he is also the emperor, his father is inheriting the peaceful and prosperous world, and he is the only one who takes over this mess.

"The official, Li Gangshu's business spirit is comparable to Zhao Kuo, first in Bianliang, ordered Yao Pingzhong to attack the Jin army at night, and our army was defeated; It is also the fate of the division to attack, rescue Taiyuan, resulting in the defeat of the army, resulting in the situation even more collapsed, now Taiyuan has been surrounded by the law of locking the city, three layers inside and three layers outside, completely lost the opportunity to break through, Taiyuan may fall overnight. Please punish Li Gang for humiliating the country! One of the imperial historians immediately opened his mouth and roared.

"Official, Taiyuan rescue is a must, but the timing is not right! Before the soldiers and horses moved, the grain and grass went first, which is something that only three-year-old children know. At that time, the old Jianjun had already said that we should not attack blindly, our army lacked food and grass, and if it attacked, it was very likely to be defeated. However, Li Gang said that the opportunity must not be lost, and it will not come again, and even said that the old Jianjun is afraid of the enemy and does not move forward, and supports the army with self-respect. The old Jianjun is also a fierce character, where he can stand such an insult, he sent troops recklessly, attacked lightly, and did not carry a burden with anyone. In the end, he was defeated in a battle with the Jin army! The old Jianjun died unjustly! ”

"The army in the division died unjustly! If you don't know the canonical punishment, how can you be worthy of the soldiers who died in battle! ”

"In the past, there was the Anshi Rebellion, Ge Shuhan guarded Tongguan, and he could have kept Tongguan without loss, as long as Tongguan was not lost, Chang'an could be preserved. However, Yang Guozhong, for his own selfishness, forcibly ordered Ge Shuhan to attack, but the army was defeated and Tongguan was lost. And now Li Gang's crime is comparable to Yang Guozhong, please Your Majesty kill this thief! A speaker gritted his teeth.

"Your Majesty......"

Officials, every word you say and I say, and you keep talking, they are all impeaching Li Gang. Even the Yanguan who usually has a good relationship with Li Gang can only be silent. At this moment, everything was in vain.

And Li Gang was also silent, not defending, just standing there quietly, his heart was like ashes. After losing the battle, someone always needs to bear the charge, and this crime is naturally not the current official, but only him. This scapegoat, he was the one who was supposed to do it back then. And he was guilty! It is not sad to be a scapegoat, but the sad thing is that in this battle, he was defeated, and more than 200,000 soldiers and horses of the Western Army were lost. If you besiege Bianliang again, Bianliang really has no soldiers to defend, so can it still resist the attack of the Jin army?

Song Qinzong looked at Li Gang under the stage and asked, "Li Qing, can you plead guilty!" “

"The minister pleaded guilty!"

"The province of Zhongshu will draft the purpose!" Song Qin Zongdao.

Soon Zhongshu Province made a will, Li Gangbing was defeated and humiliated the country, was demoted to a regimental training envoy in a certain place on Fujian Road, and fell to the end from the sky, leaving the power center of the Song Dynasty.

"Brother, he's dead!"

At this moment, the planter who was sick in bed heard the news of his brother's death, and there was no sadness on his face, only calm.

There is no man who is afraid of death, and he who is afraid of death cannot be a man of the family. When you join the military, life is no longer your own, and it is an honor in itself to be able to shroud yourself in horse leather.

"Dying at seventy is not an early death. The general died in a hundred battles, and the strong man returned in ten years. What an honor it is to be shrouded in horse leather! It's a pity that I am already dying, and I can no longer ride a horse, I can no longer fight with a sword, I can only lie on the bed, wait quietly, wait for death! ”

Although Li Gang is just a scholar, he doesn't understand military affairs, and he likes to talk on paper, but at least he is loyal and patriotic. It seems to be a bit too much to demote such loyal and righteous people to Fujian Road. The defeat in this battle is not just his fault! ”

The house slave beside the bed said again: "General, Yao Gu has also been relegated to Guangdong!" “

"Why did you go to Guangdong?" The seed master asked.

"Originally, the second general planned to converge in Taiyuan with three routes of soldiers and horses to completely relieve the siege of the Jin army, but Yao Gu was afraid of the enemy and missed the opportunity to converge, resulting in the defeat and death of the second general!"

The Seed Master said, "This is not Yao Gu's mistake. The father and son of the Yao family are narrow-minded, but they are not people who do not care about the overall situation. I guess he was not afraid of the enemy, but was sniped by the Jin army's iron cavalry and lost the opportunity to meet. But he was shrewd and ran out of the encirclement of the Jin army! ”

"Now that most of the elite of the Western Army has been lost, it is difficult to hold the Yellow River, and it is difficult to hold Bianliang, I hope the emperor will come to his senses and move the capital to Guanzhong.

"Someone, write for me, I want to go to the official's house and move the capital to Jingzhao Mansion!"

At this time, the planter was so sick that he couldn't write, so he could only ask someone to write for him.
