Chapter 823: Guo Jia vs Cheng Yu

"Master of the military division, Yue Xi ran 1 Xiahoudun rushed in from the outside in a hurry, Cheng Yu, who was facing away from him, was studying the map, and when he heard Xiahoudun's voice, he turned his head, but his face was very calm. This section was updated by ^

"Oh? Ran, in that direction? ”

Xiahou paused for a moment, feeling that Cheng Yu's attitude was a little too calm, so he asked, "Don't you think it's a pity or an accident for Master Junshi?" Why did we just start arranging, and Yue Xi had already gotten the news and ran? ”

"It's not surprising, your troops have military divisions, can't there be military divisions in Yuexi's troops?"

"Did the Master say that they guessed our intentions, so they ran ahead of time?"

Cheng Yu nodded lightly: "Yes, General Xiahou hasn't answered the next question yet1."

"Oh yes, they're moving south, they're approaching Zhongli, and that's weird too.1

"No wonder, they hope that Huang Zhong's troops will contain General Xiahou Yuan, and then they will calmly cross the Huaishui, and then turn around and use the Huaishui to block us and General Xu Chu's pursuers, and then work with Huang Zhong to eat General Xiahou Yuan."

"How's that to be? Shall we immediately send troops in pursuit to prevent it from crossing the river? ”

"It is necessary to immediately send troops to pursue, and at the same time inform General Xu Chu of the movements of the enemy army and our response, and also inform General Xiahou Yuan, so that he can immediately clear all the ships on the Huai River, send them upstream or drag them to the south bank to be sealed, and prevent the enemy from crossing the river. We then cooperated with General Xu Chu in the north to compress their transfer space and annihilate them on the north bank of Huaishui1

Xiahoudun thought for a while and said: "Then our cavalry will go east, seize the direction of Wuhe, and then advance from east to west, and the infantry will go directly to the south, slowly compressing the enemy's activity space, and then let General Xu Chu chase and intercept from the west to prevent the enemy from turning to the west." ”

Cheng Yu frowned, but still nodded and said, "It's feasible!" It's just that the infantry from the north may well become a hole in our encirclement. Therefore, a suspicious army is needed in the north, this part of the cavalry hides behind the infantry and shows the banner of General Xiahou, if Yue Xi tries to break through to the east, General Xiahou can drag it, and our infantry then presses it, and then General Xu Chu arrives to annihilate this fang. If the enemy army is heading north, General Xiahou will turn around and outflank it to the north, and General Xu Chu will also turn back to outflank it to the north, maintaining a posture of pursuit. ”

"But. If the enemy forces forced their way north, wouldn't it be"

"Most of the enemy forces will not go north. I heard that the enemy army does not have much food and grass, and similarly, the weakness of the infantry in the north is obvious, so the suspicious soldiers behind the infantry under the banner of General Xiahou will make the other party think that the infantry is behind the ambush, while the general Xiahou in the east cannot show the army, and can only send a small force to clean up the enemy scouts and alien troops. ”

"Fiction is real, reality is fiction?"

"Exactly, 1

"Master Soldier's Clever Plan 1

"Guo Junshi, according to the scout's intelligence. Xu Chu went around to the west side of us, about one hundred and twenty miles away from our army, Xiahoudun's infantry was slowly pressing from the direction of Huxian, and there were large groups of cavalry behind the infantry, still waving the banner of Xiahoudun, and in the Wuhe area to the east, the aliens seemed to have encountered Xiahoudun's elite cavalry. The quantity is unknown. ”

Guo Jia stood on the hillside, looking at the sunset in the west, the sunset over the long river, which looked very tasteful.

"The sun went down again. No matter how tossing and turning the world is, the sun always rises in the east and sets in the west, and it never changes1

"Hehe, Guo Junshi is still in the mood to sigh this, the encirclement of the enemy army has gradually formed, and our space for activity is getting less and less."

Guo Jia looked back at Yue Xi's somewhat helpless expression, and said with a smile: "General Yue doesn't have to worry, if you really want to leave, just rush to the north, the enemy behind the infantry will be suspicious, they don't have so many troops to deploy, if they just honestly drive us away, and now they want to bite off a piece of meat from us, it's a bit too greedy." ”

Yue Xi looked at Guo Jia suspiciously, under the dim skylight, Guo Jia was standing in the backlight, Yue Xi couldn't see Guo Jia's expression clearly, but he could see Guo Jia's confident eyes.

"Guo Junshi, are you saying that behind the infantry in the north, it can't be Xiahoudun's cavalry troops? And the Wuhe region is Xiahoudun's army? ”

"That's right! That's it1

"But it doesn't make sense.1

"The enemy just wants us to feel unreasonable, and there must be something strange about unreasonable things, then we will suspect that the Five Rivers area is a suspicious strategy, on the contrary, behind the infantry is a heavy ambush, so that we will attack to the east."

"Yes, that's a reasonable idea.1

"However, if you only look at the layout, if the enemy wants to besiege us, it must be encircled from four directions, and on the west side is Xu Chu's cavalry, which can be confirmed, and there are Huaishui and Xiahou Yuan blocking it in the south, which is also certain, and now the infantry in the north cannot be fake, and the rest is the question of who is real and who is fake between the cavalry and the cavalry behind the infantry in the Wuhe area."

"Well, that's true."

"So, if there are indeed cavalry in the Five Rivers area, where is the weakest part of this encirclement?"

"North 1

"Very well, then let me ask you, if you suspect that there is an ambush behind the infantry, what will you choose?"

"But"

"Can you deny the fact that you already suspect an ambush behind the infantry?"

"No, so, I'll try to maneuver east to see if there are any cavalry in the Rivers area.1

"By the way, this is what the enemy wants us to do, because they don't have enough cavalry, so now they can only put the hole in the north, if we run from the east, then the battle will be over, and everyone will have nothing to lose, they will not be satisfied. And if we bypass from the north, for Xiahoudun, the war will continue, and they have always thought that our army will have less food and grass for five days, so that if we go north, our army will fall into a situation of cutting off food and grass, so we will choose to go east, if I am not mistaken, now the enemy's infantry should be moving in the southeast direction, close to the Wuhe area, just to force us to break away from the northwest. ”

"Then they don't need to be so troublesome, as long as Xiahoudun seizes the Wuhe region with great fanfare, we can either forcibly break through, or choose to go north to avoid the war, can't we also achieve the same effect?"

"It's different, in that case, we choose to go north directly, it will save a day's time, if we hesitate to try to attack the east, one may be entangled, and then fall into the encirclement, the other may be a successful escape, but it wastes a day, they are just trying to delay time, waiting for us to run out of food and grass."

Yue Xi took a breath: "It turns out that it is so precise1."

"Hehe, on the battlefield, it is necessary to make precise calculations and adapt to changes, especially when the difference in strength between the two sides is not large, it is necessary to grind off the opponent's advantages little by little, use endless means to consume the other party, and finally reverse the balance of strength between the two sides, this is the role of a military division, always want to plan the world's things, definitely not 1

"In that case, then we just need to turn around and head north, remobilize the enemy forces, and maybe we can surprise them when we return to Huxian.1

"Impossible, there must be Li Dian's troops stationed in Huxian County, and as soon as we turn around, Xiahou Yuan will also turn around, if we go south again, I am afraid that Xiahou Yuan will also cross the Huaishui to participate in the siege, Huang Zhong's troops are too small, it is difficult to deter Zhongli, and it may be difficult to hold back Xiahou Yuan's troops."

"Then why don't they cross the water now?"

"They don't want to force us into a hurry, if Xiahou Yuan crosses north, we will definitely choose to join forces with Huang Zhong to attack Xiahoudun in the east, even if it costs a huge price. In fact, they're playing the trick of missing one out of three, trying to let us take chances and kill the precious time for us. If we return to the vicinity of Huaishui after a few days of tossing, we will not have many options because of the problem of food and grass, and then they can concentrate their forces in one direction, as long as they block the east and south, and cut off the possibility of us crossing Huaishui, we will definitely lose. ”

"So, our best option now is to force a surprise attack to the east and break through at any cost?"

"Of course not, we go north, and since they want us to go north, we're better off going north.1

"But even though we have more food than they expected, going north will not ultimately change our situation."

"Hehe, now the enemy army is between Huaishui and Huxian to compress our activity space, or to drive us away, but they are not in a hurry to start a war with us, unless we try to break through the three boundaries north of Huxian, east of Wuhe, and south of Huaishui, otherwise, the war will not happen for the time being."

Yue Xi frowned and thought about it, and found that there was really no good way to deal with it, although he just said that he would break through to the Wuhe region, in fact, the water network in the Wuhe region was vertical and horizontal, and it was the most unsuitable for cavalry warfare, especially for archers, it was really a very helpless choice.

Unexpectedly, the enemy army has laid a big net around him silently, if it weren't for Guo Jia to tell him through this matter, Yue Xi definitely didn't see that he had basically fallen into the trap, Cao Cao is really powerful!

What's even more powerful is naturally Guo Jia, he actually wants to teach Cao Cao a lesson in this dangerous situation, and the more he racks his brains, he can't think of how to teach Cao Jun another lesson in such a bad situation!

"Guo Junshi, what about after going north?"

"Naturally, it went south1

"What about after going south? At this time, Xiahou Yuan will cross the river to form a flanking attack on us, right!? ”

"When he crosses the river, it is the time for us to crush him1
