Chapter 279: Military Discussion

"Wu Anjun, it seems that we are going to come back and talk again. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info, "Now that we have just arrived in Ran Min's army, it is not good to let others wait longer, so Li You got up and went out of the tent with Bai Qi, and followed the soldiers to Ran Min's big tent.

Entering the big tent, Li You immediately noticed that the atmosphere here was completely different from that in the martial arts arena, perhaps these generals who were qualified to enter the tent knew better than those ordinary soldiers at the bottom what kind of powerful opponent they were facing, they frowned one by one, their faces were full of worry, and the big tent looked extremely dignified.

"Li You/Gongsun Qi has seen Your Majesty." The voices of Li You and Bai Qi broke the depression in the big tent, and the general Dong Yan, the general Zhang Wen and others turned their heads and looked at the two people who took the initiative to send them to death.

"Your Majesty, it's going to be a military discussion in a while, or let them in after the military discussion is over?" General Dong Yan said that it was a little inappropriate to let strangers participate in such a confidential matter.

"General Dong doesn't need to be cautious, these two are good men who have a blood and sweat feud with the Xianbei people, and they will definitely not be meticulous." Ran Min said directly, "What's more, you haven't discussed anything in the past few days, so you might as well listen to other people's thoughts." ”

"The marching formation is not trivial, have the two of you ever led troops to fight?" Zhang Wen, the general of the cavalry, saw that Dong Yan's persuasion was ineffective, so he changed his reason, in his opinion, these two people should also retreat when they heard this, right?

Li You almost couldn't hold back his laughter, and he was just gone, and someone asked Bai Qi if he had ever led soldiers to fight? Bai Qi has annihilated more enemy troops in his life than you have ever seen, and you are asking this, isn't it Guan Gong playing with a big knife in front of him, talking about Spring and Autumn in front of Confucius, and doing carpentry in front of Lu Ban?

"I also fought in the Guanzhong area for many years, and I think I still know a little about marching formations." Bai Qi replied calmly, not angry at all because of the other party's offense.

"Okay, Mr. Li and Mr. Gongsun also brought two thousand elite horsemen, if my Great Wei wants to defeat Murong Ke, they have to cooperate." Seeing that Zhang Weng was still about to speak, Ran Min spoke impatiently to stop him, and at this time he finally remembered the two thousand elite cavalry that Li You said earlier, "Mr. Li, I just don't know where these two thousand cavalry are stationed now?" When will I be able to reach my camp? ”

"If summoned by His Majesty, he will be there in two days." In fact, Li You can summon it at any time, but if the army appears out of thin air, it will inevitably be a little shocking, "I just think that the Yan army still doesn't know the existence of this cavalry, so it's better to hide it for the time being, and then attack the Yan army by surprise at a critical time." ”

Now the Great Wei army has more than 10,000 people, and Murong Ke's Yan army has 100,000 people, such a disparity in strength, if you face the enemy head-on, even if you add these two thousand Xuanjia cavalry, it will not play a big role; Therefore, Li You didn't want them to reach Ran Min's camp, but planned to hide them for the time being, and then give Murong Ke a surprise and fatal blow when the two armies were in a decisive battle, only in this way would Great Wei have a slight chance of winning.

"Having said that, if we are not allowed to see these cavalry, how can we believe that what you say is not a lie?" Dong Yan thought about it, but he didn't think of any other force nearby that could come up with two thousand fine horses.

"If the general doesn't believe me, you can send someone to follow us north to the garrison of the army to have a look." Li You had already been mentally prepared for this, and said according to the reason he thought of, if they believed that it would be best if they didn't check it, if they didn't believe it, they could only hide the army near Liantai for the time being and wait for the opportunity.

", you and Mr. Li will go after the military discussion." Dong Yan's words played a role after all, and Ran Min directly let his son Ran Cao take over the task of finding out the truth.

"Obey the order." Li You didn't have a suitable excuse, so he could only agree for the time being, and wait for the military discussion to decide according to the situation.

"Okay, the chores are over, now let's discuss how to deal with Murong Ke's army!" After saying that, Ran Min ordered his own soldiers to unfold the map, Li You, Bai Qi and Dong Yan and other generals surrounded it, Ran Min pointed to the direction of An Xi on the map and said, "I decided to lead the army to attack the Yan army here, what do you think?" ”

Anxi was close to Zhongshan, where Murong Ke's army was located, and if he wanted to attack the Yan army, this place was the only way to go, and at first glance it seemed that there was nothing wrong with it.

However, Bai Qi carefully recalled the Zhongshan terrain he had seen a few days ago and shook his head and said, "No, the terrain of Anxi is slightly flat, which is conducive to cavalry charging and killing, and most of our army are foot soldiers, and it is impossible to catch up with the cavalry on the flat ground, even if we can defeat the Yan army, we can't catch up, and we can't completely annihilate Murong Ke's army, even if we win a battle, it won't help, and we have few people, if Murong Ke wins a game, we won't be able to turn over." ”

Ran Min was stunned when he heard this, it had been a long time since anyone had pointed out his mistakes so bluntly in the military discussion, which made him a little unacceptable.

And Li You also secretly complained in his heart, judging from the conversation just now, Ran Min should be an extremely stubborn person, even if he wants to persuade him, he must be skillful and tactful to persuade him; And Bai Qi is unmatched in the Great Qin Army, and he has long developed the habit of going straight in the military discussion, so he said what Fang Cai said.

"Haha, Mr. Gongsun doesn't seem to know my soldiers of Great Wei." Ran Min laughed and said, "My soldiers of Great Wei have defeated the enemy's cavalry many times, and they are never afraid to fight with cavalry. ”

But can two legs run more than four legs? Isn't that the case with the Great Song Dynasty in the future? After the loss of the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, it was much more difficult for the Great Song to obtain horses, so even though the Great Song Dynasty left a super high victory rate of 70% in foreign wars, it still gave people the impression of being poor and weak.

The reason is the same as the situation faced by the Great Wei now, the Song army is mostly infantry, and even if it can defeat the opponent in the battle with the Liao State and the Western Xia, there is no way to pursue the opponent and achieve a decisive victory, and can only watch the opponent come and go; And if the Song army is defeated, it will definitely not be able to escape the pursuit of the Western Xia Iron Harrier and the Liao cavalry. Most of the victories are small victories, and defeats are big defeats, how can this battle continue?

"It's not that I don't think that the army of Great Wei can't win against the Yan army, it's just that I think there is a good choice for the location of the decisive battle." Bai Qi replied calmly.

"Oh? Where is Mr. Gongsun referring to? Ran Min couldn't help but ask, in his opinion, there didn't seem to be much difference from here to the basic location along the road in Zhongshan.

"Liantai!" Bai Qi's finger fell on Lian Tai's position, which was exactly the same as the location of Ran Min's final defeat in the history books. (To be continued.) )
