Chapter 338: Sword Pointing at Guanzhong (2)

Qi attacked Zhou, and Fenzhou in the north was just a pretense, whether Duan Shao, Murong Yan or Hu Luguang himself, they did not expect the Qi army to really enter Weibei from the Longmen Ferry, which would be extremely risky.

Once something goes wrong, Wei Xiaokuan takes the opportunity to send troops, not only Hu Luguang will face the great difficulty of annihilating the entire army, but even the entire Jinzhou Province will be completely exposed to Wei Xiaokuan's troops!

The conquest of a great country is on the right path, paying attention to Zhengkeqi, the Northern Qi Dynasty has strong capital, and the general trend is in control, do you still need to make dangerous moves? In fact, Duan Shao, Murong Yan and others painstakingly buried a chess piece here, and they had the meaning of a move......

Northern Qi cloth to play this chess, can be played, can not be played, the initiative lies in the Northern Qi, but the Northern Zhou did not dare to gamble with the national fortune Hu Luguang will not do this, the Northern Qi move, is to overwhelm Wei Xiaokuan and the Northern Zhou court with an overwhelming military advantage, forcing him to mobilize troops and horses to fight with Hu Luguang.

Fenzhou is a dangerous place, with important towns such as Dingyang and Yaoxiang, and there is a land of Heyin to respond to it. With sufficient soldiers and excellent armaments, compared with the Zhou State, the advantage is more than a star and a half? Hu Luguang can be said to be attackable and defending, and he is not afraid of Zhou at all.

In this way, the initiative of the war is firmly in the hands of the Northern Qi, which means that if there is no accident, the Northern Zhou can only fight in the way expected by the Northern Qi for a long time in the future, loses the right to decide the fighter, and is led by the nose by the Northern Qi......

But the most important place in this battle is not here in Hu Luguang, the key is to look at Luoyang. The whole country of Qi has coveted Guanzhong for a long time, and today it is necessary to tear off a piece of meat in the east of the Guanzhong barrier and Henan!

Therefore, how to formulate a strategy and how to attack fell to the left minister and Dazai, and the two old men argued endlessly in front of the emperor before drawing up a battle plan.

"Prudent view, first take the small pass, and then take the Tong Pass, Tong Pass is located in Qin, Jin, Henan three places to rush, the north with Wei, the water of Luo, the water of the Yellow River, hug the pass down, the south according to the Qinling, there are twelve cities, the city is strong, the military is sufficient, and the terrain is dangerous.

“…… The peaks on the southeast side are interconnected, and there are many deep valleys and steep cliffs. Here, soldiers must fight! …… However, after taking the small pass, Tongguan, first do not rush to fight, surround but not fight, sit and wait for the arrival of the reinforcements of the Zhou State, concentrate the advantages of our troops, and break the reinforcements of the Zhou State one by one. ”

"After seizing Tongguan, Chang'an is just a turtle in an urn! Ready to ...... There are many portals in Guanzhong, Xiaoguan, Wuguan, and Dasanguan...... Nothing can be compared with Tongguan, my three-way army, a total of 400,000, powerful and wealthy, the whole country and the conquest, will take this pass, take the foundation of the world! ”

The needles in the main hall could be heard, and all the generals stood solemnly on the side, holding their breath and concentrating, listening to the battle arrangements of Old Murong, for fear that one would accidentally miss important information...... In recent years, the decline of the Northern Zhou Dynasty has been obvious, the power of the Northern Qi has obviously penetrated into the hinterland of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, and the huge manpower and material resources have been paid in exchange for comprehensive and complete intelligence information.

Old Murong was full of spirit, and he was about to defeat the Zhou State in one fell swoop! At this time, Duan Shao, who was sitting on the side and pretending to sleep, slowly opened his eyes, with a look of inquiry in his eyes, and said, "But I don't know, how do you attack, how do you fight?" If our army advances, it will end up like the former General Dou Tai, you must know...... Proud soldiers - defeated! ”

Although Duan Shao is younger than Murong Yan, his prestige in the army is even greater, and he knows very well the ability of veterans like Murong Yan, but even so, when facing Tongguan, he still has to be careful, because more than thirty years ago, there was a living example placed there - Dou Tai!

Emperor Shenwu wanted to destroy the Western Wei Dynasty, from the west of Jinyang, so that Gao Yu Shangluo, so that Dou Tai into Tongguan, Yuwentai troops in Guangyang, it is expected that Dou Tai is proud of his achievements, and has the intention of despising the Western Wei, so he led 6,000 horses back to Chang'an, claiming to protect Longyou, and secretly gathered soldiers and horses to prepare for a surprise attack on Dou Tai.

Dou Tai really hit the plan, and when he found out that Yuwentai's army was descending from the sky, it was too late, he hurriedly formed a formation in the mountains, but before the formation was formed, it was easily broken by the charge of the Western Wei Iron Cavalry, and Dou Tai was beheaded! It was precisely because of Dou Tai's fiasco that Gao Huan was angered, which indirectly triggered a series of failures in Hongnong, Shayuan, and Yubi.

Gao Huan's strength is much higher than that of Yuwentai, the Eastern Wei army has even crossed the river, and the Western Wei Dynasty is only in the last day, but in this way, Yuwentai has turned over. In the end, Gao Huan lost the opportunity to capture Guanzhong forever in the fiasco, and finally failed to realize his long-cherished wish to unify the north...... In the final analysis, the Eastern Wei Dynasty was too aggressive, and it could not be rectified, and in the end it could only be broken by Yuwentai one by one, which has to be said to be a big regret in the hearts of the Eastern Wei Dynasty!

In fact, even if Yuwentai beheaded Dou Tai, it would be just a trivial matter. Hu Lu Qiangju saw it clearly, and clearly pointed out: The Western Wei Dynasty is suffering from a great drought and a grain harvest, Yuwentai and the gang under him are now outlaws and should not compete with them, the Eastern Wei Dynasty should besiege them, but if they do not fight, the Western Wei army will definitely not be able to confront the Eastern Wei for a long time, and will definitely run back to Chang'an, and Chang'an is empty, and the Eastern Wei can overcome without a fight!

It's a pity that Gao Huan didn't listen. The question of fighting there has already been discussed, and the next question before Qi Jun is: how to fight? Is it to take advantage of the momentum and drive straight into the direct break of the small pass and then break the Tong pass? Or is it progressive, step-by-step? Duan Shao also pointed out sharply: "If you go to Xiaoguan first, Wei Xuanke is still behind you, and it is not certain who will fight who at that time." ”

Wei Xuan is a notoriously difficult bone, Duan Shao and Hu Luguang are also afraid of three points when they see this person, not to mention Dugu Yongye, who fights with him from time to time, so far, whenever he encounters Wei Xuan, he has not won a single one. At this time, when Shao mentioned him, Dugu Yongye had mixed feelings in his heart...... Few people cared about what he thought, but Old Murong thought about it and found that this person was really a headache......

He thought for a long time and said, "I think that our army's formation is so huge, he shouldn't be surprised to come to the door when our army's strength is at its strongest...... It stands to reason that as soon as our army goes, he should understand that he must not be able to defend it, and he will abandon the city and leave......"

He paused, according to his plan, Wei Xuan should have been annihilated by him when he sent reinforcements to Tongguan, but he obviously ignored a question, what if Wei Xuan chose to fight hard with the Qi army? Wei Xuan is an old thing who dares to rush into the tens of thousands of troops with hundreds of people, and he is even crazier than Lu Teng!

…… Although Lao Murong may not be afraid of him, but to deal with him, the timing of the attack on Tongguan will inevitably be delayed, don't just annihilate Wei Xuan, in the blink of an eye, the reinforcements of the Zhou State are coming again, and the Qi army is still a fart, so simply hundreds of thousands of troops will go back! Fortunately, I worked hard for several days, wasting a lot of soldiers and money and food, but in the end I did useless work, what a loss!

Seeing Murong Yan's speech, Duan Shao sighed in his heart, for the time being, he couldn't think of a better way. One of the generals looked around and saw that everyone present had a bitter gourd on their faces, and even His Majesty was on the throne, leaning forward unconsciously, staring at the map on the wall, and muttering.

After a while, I saw that no one talked, so I saw the opportunity and stepped out firmly:

"Your Majesty, Zuo Xiang, Dazai, the last general may have a way to break this game!"

Everyone brushed and looked at it, and found that this bold man was actually Yang Su, a free cavalry attendant and champion general who was trusted by His Majesty.

As the saying goes, if you don't have hair on your mouth, you can't do things well, although this Yang Su has made a few achievements, but after all, he is young, you must know that in this world, no matter where you go, it depends on your qualifications! It is easy to cause dissatisfaction among the elders.

What kind of moth is this hairy child? The veterans frowned in unison.

But the emperor's eyes obviously lit up, pointed at Yang Su, and asked him to reply. Yang Su didn't think about it and said: "Our army goes out on the expedition, there are a lot of soldiers, and if you win, you will be like a broken bamboo, and if you lose, you will collapse like a landslide, so you can't be careless." In the event of an unfavorable war, it is difficult for the soldiers to restrain themselves.

"It's better than this...... Divide the army into two, one in front and one behind, advance one after another, and if the front army wins, the rear army will join forces; If the front army is defeated, the rear army will take advantage of it, and in this way, our army will be invincible. ”

The generals' eyes lit up one after another, Duan Shao looked at him playfully, obviously very interested, and asked again: "I don't know how to fight your army?" How should you face Wei Xuan? ”

Yang Su said confidently: "Three-pronged. First, repair the village, repair the road, lead the army to surround Wei Xuan, only surround but not fight, and uproot the surrounding cities one by one as quickly as possible; Second, send troops to capture Hangu and attack Hongnong, and third, surprise attack Xiaoguan, and then besiege Tongguan, resulting in established facts...... In this way, Wei Xuan will no longer have the meaning of existence here, he will definitely leave! ”

Old Murong and Duan Shao both fell into a moment of thought, their eyes flashed, Yang Su's method obviously has a certain feasibility. But there are still generals who are not convinced, and said bluntly: "Since the construction of Tongguan, Hangu has become like a chicken rib, I don't understand why you want to do this, you must take Hangu." ”

Before Yang Su could reply, Murong Yan answered for him: "His target is not Hangu, but Hongnong, if the Zhou army comes to the aid of Hedong, Hongnong will inevitably be a heavy land, without this place, the efficiency of the Zhou State in transporting grain and grass and garrisoning troops will be greatly reduced......"

Yang Su didn't expect to be seen through at a glance, and was a little ashamed, but Murong Yan cast an appreciative look: "It seems that you haven't been fooling around with Yang Yan for half a year, and his skills have made you learn a lot." ”

Gao Wei saw that Murong Yandu said this, presumably eight or nine are not far from ten, and he couldn't help but be overjoyed in his heart, and asked: "Then according to what Zuo Xiang and Dazai saw, is Yang Qing's statement feasible?" ”

Murong Yan and Duan Shao cautiously glanced at each other, and then said in unison: "It's feasible!" ”
