Chapter 0290: Surprise Attack on Guangling
Qian Yecheng, this guy deserves to be the reincarnation of Ma Chao, he is really fierce enough! Qin Yu couldn't help but exclaim.
"And that's not all." Zhang Tai answered with a wry smile.
"After a day of stalemate between the two armies in Tongguan, Liu Xie secretly sent Zhang Jiao to lead the team to lead the people across Urasakajin, preparing to send troops from Hedong to detour, preparing to smuggle across the Yellow River and attack the back of the Xiyu Group."
"However, just when Zhang Jiao was about to cross the Yellow River in the south, he was discovered by Qian Yecheng, and the two sides launched a decisive battle on the bank of the Yellow River.
"Now that Qian Yecheng and others are forced to be restrained by Zhang Jiao on the north bank, they can only confront Hanwang Group in Tongguan, and it is still unknown whether Xiyu Group can become the main subordinate."
After the three of them finished analyzing, Qin Yu couldn't help but ask, "What do you think is the probability that Xiyu Group will capture Si Li?" ”
Zhang Tai and the other three glanced at each other, and then shook their heads in unison, and Zhou Yu was the first to speak.
"It's very difficult, although Qian Yecheng now occupies the initiative, but after all, it is a place in Liangzhou, and then compete with the two places of the Hanwang Group, although the Hanwang Group is not a military general, but there are many capable people, the internal affairs are strictly enforced, and the financial aspect is gratifying, not to mention, the local people are also very enthusiastic about joining the corps, and the soldiers are only ranked behind Cao Wei."
"If Qian Yecheng can take Tongguan in one go, then there is still hope for becoming the master, but if the two armies continue to fight against each other and are relieved by the Hanwang Group, Qian Yecheng will be able to enter the division again, I am afraid it will be difficult to climb to the sky."
Hearing this, Qin Yu also understood what Zhou Yu meant, and could only sigh helplessly.
Compared with the Hanwang Group, Qin Yu certainly hopes that Qian Yecheng can become the head of the division, at least the two of them had a friendship when they fought against Lu Bu, and Qian Yecheng does not seem to be the kind of person who has to be the master of the house, maybe the Medicine God Group and Qian Yecheng have a great chance of discussing cooperation.
It's just that if Qian Yecheng can't get his subordinates, everything will become empty talk, after all, Ma Chao, who is locked in Liangzhou, is far from quenching the thirst of Qin Yu and others.
The three of them discussed the Battle of Tongguan for a while, each speculating about what kind of impact this battle would have on the Medicine God Group, until Qian Yecheng had made preparations in advance regardless of victory or defeat.
The discussion about the battle of Tongguan is over, but the discussion about Jiangdong has only just begun.
Although cultivating life and recuperation is the first priority of the Medicine God Group now, the matter of how to fight against Jiangdong cannot be put down, after all, in the eyes of these three professional strategists, the more adequate the preparation in advance, the greater the chance of winning the battle.
Zhang Tai, as the coordinator of the overall situation, took the lead in speaking.
"Poyang, Weixukou, Jiangdu Guangling, these three are the directions that we can use as the main attack point, needless to say, the advantage of attacking from Poyang is that it can bypass the natural danger of the Yangtze River and capture Jiangdong from land warfare."
"But Poyang is far away, if you want to capture Jianye all the way, you must take Xindu as a fulcrum to prevent the back road from being copied, and when you go north, you have to take Hulin, Sanshan, Wuhu, Taiping, and Shizigang in turn to capture Jianye, if you attack according to this line, you will definitely not be able to take Jiangdong in half a year, plus it also takes time for us to cultivate and recuperate, although Cao Wei suffered a big defeat in Chibi, but after such a long time, he will definitely be able to recover his combat strength."
"Once Cao Wei recovers ahead of schedule and drags the war into a stalemate, we will have to fight Jiangdong in the south, and Xuzhou and even Yangzhou in the north, we will have to bear Cao Wei's troops.
"Sending troops from the mouth of the river, of course, can surprise attack Jianye in the shortest time, but Jiangdong has been arranged in Jianye for a long time, the port area is heavily guarded, and the same is true of Hulin and Sanshan, if we attack, it will be an extremely tragic head-to-head confrontation, if we can get away with the victory, it will be good, if we lose, the consequences will be unimaginable."
"As for attacking from the east of the Guangling River, it is the golden mean, it is difficult to raid Jianye, but because it is close to the sea, it is very easy to cross the Yellow River, once the Yellow River is crossed, whether it is from Piling, or from the Dantu, you can encircle and suppress Jianye in a very short period of time, but Jianye will definitely focus on defense after receiving the news, and the real tough battle will be transferred from the Yellow River to the direction of Jianye."
Zhang Tai analyzed all the advantages and disadvantages of the three routes in one go, and finally focused on Zhou Yu and the other three, and asked in a deep voice: "Three, where do you think it is better to use it as the main attack line?" ”
Chen Changan sighed and said softly: "Let's exclude Poyang first, as Zhang Tai said, the danger factor is too high, originally we thought that after taking Poyang, we could slowly encroach on Jiangdong's chassis, but Huanyu Group collapsed too quickly, and before we had time to do it, he had already been driven out of Jizhou, and Cao Wei, who had no worries, we couldn't afford to spend it with him." ”
Excluding the attack from Puyang, this point is meaningless for the four of them, after all, if the general trend is different today, the best strategy has now become the worst choice.
Zhou Yu spoke at this time: "I agree with sending troops from the mouth of the water, and the target of the main attack is not Jianye, but the Sanshan Ferry, now the new defeat of Hefei in Eastern Wu, coupled with the turmoil caused by the return of the rout army to Jiangdong, we are bound to recover our vitality before Jiangdong, and the surprise attack on the Sanshan Ferry is the easiest to establish a miracle, and it will also help us the most in the future." ”
However, as soon as Zhou Yu's words fell, Chen Changan shook his head.
"I think it's better to send troops from Guangling, although the probability of success of the surprise attack on Sanshan is not low, but we can't afford the price of failure at all, once the Sanshan ferry is held, we are bound to be unable to launch a surprise attack again, and when Cao Wei recovers, the only way waiting for us is to be destroyed."
"And if we send troops from Guangling and capture Dantu, it will be easier than capturing Sanshan, although we have to face the obstacle of Beigu Mountain, but the capture of Jianye from Sanshan also has to face the problem of blocking the Qinhuai River, and the difficult enemy in the land battle of Beigushan, I think it is easier to solve than the problem of water warfare."
"What's more, there's the final thing, you see."
Chen Changan stretched out his hand and nodded on the Yingshui north of Shouchun.
"As long as we bypass Beigushan and take Qu'a, then we can concentrate supplies from Yangzhou, the provincial capital, and then directly transport Qu'a along Hongze Lake and Baima Lake to the south, so as to avoid the risk of being cut off by the Jiangdong people from the waterway to the greatest extent."
Zhou Yu pondered for a moment, then turned his head and asked Qin Yudao, "What do you think?" ”
Seeing that the three top military advisors were all looking at him, Qin Yu was a little flustered, but he quickly calmed down, and after seriously thinking about the advantages and disadvantages of the two methods, he spoke softly.
"I agree with sending troops from Guangling to capture Dantu, but there is still a problem, that is, after taking down Dantu, what should Jiangdong do if he wants to send troops from Wu County on the other side of Taihu Lake in the south to intercept the back road?"
