Chapter 824: Spear and Shield

Jiangjie City.

Fuhan Shogun Beppu.

At present, there are many officials working in the front yard of Beppu, and the security is also very high. There is a bit of the weather of [Jiangxian Fuhan General's Mansion].

Backyard, inside the hall.

Wu Nian was wearing a black python robe, with a scarf tied on his head, and his freshly washed hair was very smooth.

In front of him were seven captains, including Wang Gui, Zhang Sheng, Long Ji, Zhao Yanting, Huang Hu, Tie Niu, and Guan Jinhan.

Wu Nian said: "At present, the situation in Jiangjie and Yiju has stabilized. Now that the autumn harvest has just passed, both places are large plains, grain-producing areas. The granaries are all full, which can support us in the war. ”

"Now the Mengyuan people and the Chu people have joined forces to attack Liaodong. We also have to end the war in Goguryeo as soon as possible and go back to the rescue. ”

"I plan to let Captain Guan and Captain Huang stay in Yizhou Mansion and Jiangjie Mansion, and the remaining five lieutenants will join me in the southern expedition to the capital."

"But Zhao Mancheng and Li Yunpet are stationed on the front line of the capital, and the capital is tall and sturdy, with strong internal financial resources, grain and grass. And General Toyotomi's reinforcements, although there is no shadow yet. But it's certainly indispensable. ”

"It's a tough bone, so to speak. If we don't know, we're going to have to crack our teeth. Do you have any suggestions? Speak one's mind. ”

After finishing speaking, Wu Nian gently slapped his palms.

"Smack."

When the voice fell, Zhang Zhen and Lu Yanxun walked in with a desk covered with a map and put it down, bent down and clenched their fists before turning to leave.

Wu Nian stood up and gathered around the desk with the captains, looking down at the map.

How can the capital be handed over?

Zhao Mancheng and Li Yunchong definitely wanted to hold the capital, but they did not passively retreat to the capital, but set up a defensive line centered on the capital.

In the north of the capital there is a castle stronghold called Kyokaku Castle. There were 10,000 soldiers.

A stronghold in the west, called Luntai Daying. There were 7,000 soldiers.

A stronghold in the East, in the same city. There were 3,000 soldiers.

In the capital, there are at least 50,000 soldiers guarding the town. Among them, there are 50,000 soldiers trained and restored by Li Yunzhong and Zhao Mancheng.

There were also the capital city defense army, the imperial guard, and the army temporarily transferred from the south.

The defense line of the capital formed by all this seems to be impregnable, firmly holding the northern part of Goguryeo.

The purpose of the Goguryeo side was clear.

Hold.

Waiting for reinforcements from Fuso.

fantasized about the victory of Chu and Meng Yuan in Liaodong, which reversed the situation.

After looking at the map for a while, Huang Hu pinched his chin and said, "It's difficult for us to break through Goguryeo's arrangement." Otherwise. We continue to encroach on the lands of northern Goguryeo. Jiashan Mansion, Jingcheng Mansion. We can also drive the Goguryeo naval army out of the Yalu River, and we will monopolize it. ”

Without waiting for Wu Nian to answer, Guan Jinhan shook his head and said, "In this way, you will be on the way of Goguryeo." ”

"We have to break through the Goguryeo capital quickly, and it's worth the cost."

"Jiashan Mansion, Jingcheng Mansion. It is located in the mountainous area of eastern Goguryeo. It takes a lot of time and energy for us to attack them. The general relied on the mountainous area to resist the attack of the Mengyuan people. ”

Zhao Yanting nodded and agreed: "Captain Guan is right. Although we entered Goguryeo, the spies were not so useful. Jiasan Province and Jingcheng Province are also mountainous areas, and it is difficult to transmit information. But the spies got some information anyway. ”

"The prefects and county orders of these two prefectures have begun to form armies."

"Not only the city defense army, but also the field army. It is clear that he wants to fight a guerrilla war with us. ”

"When we enter Erfu, we will be consumed to death by them. Now our Liaodong base camp is being attacked by Mengyuan and Chu. It is already very difficult for Liu Changshi to maintain, and there are no troops to replenish us. ”

And the layout of Zhao Mancheng and Li Yunchong is very interesting. They stationed 10,000 troops in Kyokaku Castle, a stronghold on the northern side of the capital, which is very reasonable. After all, we are attacking from the north to the south, and Kyokaku Castle is a frontal battlefield. ”

"There are 7,000 soldiers in the Luntai battalion, and there is no problem."

"But the eastern stronghold is in the same city, but there are only 3,000 soldiers. And the city is connected to the mountains. ”

"Zhao Mancheng and Li Yunzhong did this because they wanted to use the same city as bait to lure us to make a detour to Jiashan Mansion and attack the same city. That is, to lie to us to go to the mountains. ”

Wu Nian and the others all nodded and agreed with Zhao Yanting's analysis.

Zhao Mancheng and Li Yunpet have bad stomachs.

But they don't necessarily underestimate us. The war has reached this point, and the surprise has expired.

Both sides put everything on the bright side, how much strength there is, and what intentions the other party has, are all clear.

What's the point of setting a trap in the same city?

If you want to attack the capital, you must first solve one of the three strongholds outside the city and leverage Goguryeo's defense network.

Since the same city is a trap.

Then there is only the front Beijing Pavilion left, and the Luntai camp in the West can choose.

The strength of the Jingcheng Pavilion is strong, and I am afraid that there will be great losses in a frontal attack.

The Luntai camp in the west is even more nonsense. You have to cross the Jingcheng Pavilion before you can attack the Luntai camp.

"Defensively, it's a flawless layout. It really deserves to be Li Yunpet and Snow Kirin. In the battle of Guangyang, we didn't leave them, we really let the tiger return to the mountain. Tie Niu looked remorseful, stretched out his hand and touched his neck, and said secretly in his heart:

"But I also tried my best, chasing Zhao Mancheng, and I was almost killed."

The other lieutenants all nodded in agreement. This formation is unlikely to be broken in a short period of time.

And they just don't have much time.

The so-called military meeting should speak freely. Wu Nian will never criticize anyone because someone has a bad idea or says something wrong.

He has a very good vibe here.

Long Ji raised his head and glanced at everyone, and said, "It seems that we have the same opinion. ”

"Zhao Mancheng and Li Yunchong are worthy of being famous Goguryeo generals, and their defense is beautiful. In addition to defense, a city was also set up as a bait. ”

"Our army is 70,000 households, and they are all battle-hardened soldiers. But there is no follow-up support, and one is less than one. You can't storm it. ”

"Isn't the answer just around the corner?"

Wu Nian, who had been watching from beginning to end, turned around and went straight to the main seat and sat down, put his two hands on the armrests of the Taishi chair, and said lightly: "Lure them out." ”

"Yes. Art. Siege is the bottom, field battle is the top. What's more, we are the elite of a hundred battles, and only the Mengyuan people can kill us equally. ”

Long Ji nodded, but quickly sighed again, shook his head and sat back in his place. said: "But." Because of this. ”

"How could they abandon the city and come out to fight us?"

Tie Niu also sighed and said depressedly: "Liaodong is a strong army, brave and good at fighting. Famous all over the world. Who wants to fight us in the field? ”

Zhang Sheng sighed: "As the saying goes, it's good, but it's dragged down by fame." It's not a good thing to be too good to be able to fight. ”
