Chapter 668: Attack
"Yes."
Liu Wu and Zhang Jin's spirits were lifted, and they hugged their fists loudly. Immediately, Wu Nian's specific distribution task was to divide the soldiers and horses of 5,000 households and get the troops to go to Jiang County.
It's a big project, and it has to be done. If these surrendered troops are not strictly managed, they will definitely flee one after another and return to the Chu State.
Although Wang Zhongbi was not a human, the soldiers were not necessarily loyal to the state of Chu. But their families are all in the state of Chu.
And now on Wu Nian's side, the food is not very sufficient, and the days are tight, and there are 20,000 more mouths to eat at once.
They have to be transported to Jiang County. Jiang County has grain, so there is no need to transport grain to the surrendered troops, and it is also in the rear, which can prevent the surrendered troops from escaping.
After arranging these tasks, Wu Nian stayed in Huping County for another day. Early the next morning. Wu Nian raised his troops, led the remaining fifteen thousand soldiers, marched in a hurry, and arrived at Pinghai City before dark.
Feng Chong himself defeated Wang Zhongbi and defended the two cities. Wu Nian also defeated Cao Ting and Hu Chong, and surrendered about 20,000 surrendered troops. Now the situation in Nanhai Mansion has completely fallen to Wu Nian.
Feng Chong gathered his 10,000 elite cavalry in Pinghai City.
The sunset is infinitely good, just near dusk.
In the east of Pinghai County, the city gate is wide open. Feng Chong held his head high and led the thousands of households under his command with great momentum to welcome Wu Nian.
"Da !!"
In the sound of horses' hooves, Wu Nian led more than 100 horsemen such as Liu Wu and Zhang Jin, broke away from the large army, and came to the city gate.
"Meet the General." Feng Chong led the thousands of households to clasp their fists and salute, his voice was loud and aggressive. He glanced at Liu Wu and Zhang Jin brightly, revealing a triumphant expression.
Defeating Wang Zhongbi alone, he is so proud.
Zhang Jin and Liu Wu's eyes breathed fire, but they were helpless. Who calls this guy highly credited? There's no comparison.
Of course, Wu Nian also saw Feng Chong's small movements and expressions, and could only sigh. This thing's temper is born without friends.
There's not much more to say.
"It's all hard work. This time. I was able to successfully defeat Cao Ting and Hu Chong, and you have done great things. Wu Nian turned over and dismounted, helped Feng Chong up, and raised his head again and said to the thousands of households.
Putting aside Feng Chong's personal problems, the performance of the cavalry this time is really remarkable.
The First World War was successful, although the general was important. But soldiers and officers are just as important.
"Thank you, General." After listening to Wu Nian's praise, the thousands of households also held their heads high, and their momentum suddenly came up, and they thanked them loudly.
Commander of the army, that's how it should be.
If you do it well, you will be praised and rewarded.
If you don't do it well, you will be punished.
After Wu Nian appeased Feng Chong and other cavalry generals, he let the infantry army camp outside, took Zhang Jin and Liu Wu into the city together, and entered a mansion arranged by Feng Chong.
Although Feng Chong has a bad temper, his popularity is very bad. But the eyesight is still there. A sumptuous banquet was prepared early.
The four of them came to a house and sat down at a square table. Wu Nian, as a general, sat in the north position.
Soon after, some soldiers brought wine and food, and everyone ate and drank together.
In the army, filling your stomach is the first priority, and drinking is in moderation. Everyone is a martial arts practitioner, and they are also rice buckets, and they are very edible. I finished eating the wine and food, drank a little wine, and was very comfortable.
"What's the situation with Wang Zhongbi now?" Wu Nian picked up a fish bone, used it as a toothpick, and asked while picking his teeth.
"This old boy is a bad breed, and he has become a turtle with a shrunken head." When Feng Chong heard this name, he immediately felt a pain in his eyes, and contemptuously told Wu Nian about Wang Zhongbi's arrangement.
After Wu Nian heard this, he also frowned. This Wang Zhongbi still knows how to fight, and he also makes a decision on the spot.
There were 50,000 soldiers and horses left, guarding two county towns and one mountain pass.
Wu Nian picked up the handkerchief, wiped his mouth, and stood up, Feng Chong understood, and immediately took Wu Nian and the three of them to the small living room with bright lights on the side and sat down.
"He holds a line, if there is a steady stream of troops, grain and grass support from the Chu State. I can't really exhaust him. A prolonged confrontation is not good for me. Is there anything you can do to break him down quickly? ”
Wu Nian raised his head and asked.
"Although the morale of his soldiers is low, it is far worse than when the bear was selfless. But if I were Wang Zhongbi, I would definitely be cramming for the time being. Use money and treatment to motivate soldiers. In addition, they have at least 20,000 soldiers and horses guarding Kexian and Ling counties, as the saying goes, huddle together for warmth. The morale of the military is quite stable. ”
"We currently only have 25,000 troops, and even if we escort the captives back with 5,000 households, it will only be 30,000. One of them was still a cavalryman. ”
"The Art of War. Ten times the siege, five times the attack, and twice the battle. It is difficult to storm and can be taken, but the casualties will be large. ”
Zhang Jin shook his head, raised his right hand, and gently stroked his beard, which had a bit of an old pedantic taste.
"Although it is written according to the script, it is rigid. But it makes sense. Feng Chong nodded and agreed.
Wu Nian glanced at this birdman, if you support it, you will support it, you have to say it so awkwardly. Immediately, he lowered his head and pondered.
Just like Feng Chong said, Wang Zhongbi put out a large turtle array. Yelling. "You've got what it takes to attack."
It's a real headache.
"Bring me the map." After thinking about it for a long time, Wu Nian didn't come up with any good way. It was decided to start with the terrain and raise his head to Feng Chongdao.
Feng Chong nodded, stood up and walked out of the door. Soon after, he came in with two personal soldiers and carried a desk.
There is a topographic map on the desk.
The topography of the mountains and rivers is clear at a glance.
Between Liaodong and Gyeonggi Zhili of Chu State, in addition to Shanhaiguan, there is the Great Wall, and the terrain of Yanshan. It's a place of shape, easy to defend and difficult to attack.
And Wang Zhongbi's three strongholds. Kexian County responds in Qianqian and Ling County, and Shanhaiguan serves as the last barrier. Three points and one line.
Wu Nian and the four of them came to the desk and looked at the topographic map. After pondering for a while, Wu Nian stretched out his right index finger and pointed to the area between Kexian and Ling counties on the map. Said: "The Art of War. Attack the city for the bottom, attack the heart for the top. ”
Wang Zhongbi relied on the strong city to stabilize the morale of the army. He will never go out of the city to fight me. ”
"Then break his heart."
"We built the camp here to cut off the connection between Kexian and Ling counties. Panic-mongering. Then he asked the civil officials to write letters and shoot arrows into the city, which made the panic even worse. Let the men and horses in the city be defeated without a fight. What do you guys think? ”
After saying that, Wu Nian's face showed a magnificent color, his tiger eyes were bright and full of sharpness.
After Feng Chong, Zhang Jin, and Liu Wu heard this, they were a little surprised, lowered their heads and looked at the map, and gradually frowned.
