Chapter 31: Wang Kuang's Ambition

Liu Cong selected Wang Mi as his deputy, and immediately started to act.

He asked Wang Mi to be in charge of the frontal battlefield, and his subordinates would cut off the military rations of Wang Kuang's army who were alone and deep in the army on the grounds that they were familiar with Taihang Mountain, and when Wang Kuang's army wanted to retreat, he would be responsible for blocking the idea that Wang Kuang's army wanted to retreat.

Regarding such a tactical arrangement, Wang Mi knew that Liu Cong wanted to consume his subordinates to defeat the opponent head-on to a certain extent.

But at the same time, for yourself, to be responsible for this war head-on, as long as you win, it will be a great credit.

This is like when the Chibi was burned, everyone thought that Zhou Gongjin was the first in battle, and Guan Yu, who intercepted and killed Cao Cao in Huarong Dao, even if he killed Cao Cao, it would only make Zhou Gongjin's reputation shine more.

This is the card of the person in charge of the frontal battlefield, as long as the battlefield is won, then he is the person who has the greatest credit.

Didn't Liu Cong know that this merit was great?!

Liu Cong naturally knows, but in the end, he is the leader of the army with the tiger talisman, Wang Mi has won, first, he can befriend Wang Mi, and secondly, when he is sharing his merits, he is also indispensable to himself.

What's more important is that what do you want to do with so many merits, unless you destroy the country, will your father still let you sit in the position of the prince!?

Therefore, Liu Cong decisively instigated Wang Mi to face the Jin army, and he was responsible for the flank and food shortage!

"This time, the King of Chu has given us the task of defeating the Jin army head-on, what do you think!" Wang Mi came out of Liu Cong's military camp and returned to his camp to prepare for the task, and the wind blew, Wang Mi naturally sobered up a lot.

If this mission is completed, it will naturally be added to the rank of knight, if it is defeated, then the first general of the Han army of the Huns and Han States will be replaced!

Everyone looked at each other, Wang Zhang chose to shut up, after all, he can handle internal affairs, but he is really a little bad in military strategy, and Wang Zhang also knows his position, and he does not participate much.

The last gaze unconsciously fell on Li Gu, Cao Wei, and Liu Tai, the first two are old qualifications, and Liu Tai has more or less capital because of the plan of Danshui drainage.

Cao Wei opened his mouth and said, "If you want me to say, we still choose to find an opportunity and strike first!" ”

Li Gu shook his head and said, "Since we want to let the Jin army in, then it is impossible for us to sneak attack them."

After all, the other party is alone, even if the forbidden army is careless, but don't the generals under their command know that the terrain is precipitous?

The path of the army must have been scouted and probed by scouts to make sure that there was no danger before advancing.

When we fight them, we are afraid that we will not be able to take it in one breath, and they will retreat decisively, and then we will have a headache.

So, I don't think it's a good idea to strike first. ”

"And what do you mean?" When Wang Mi heard Li Gu's words, he also nodded approvingly.

Don't take others for fools, especially such a lone army, I'm afraid it will be even more frightening.

It was impossible for him to do what Cao Wei said, so he continued to follow Li Gu's words and continue to ask.

"My idea is that we will honestly block the road behind Changping, cooperate with the army of the King of Chu to complete the siege of the Jin army, and wait until the Jin army is out of food and we will fight again, or the Jin army wants to retreat, we will chase and fight!

"Not bad, not bad!" When Wang Mi heard Li Gu's words, he nodded approvingly.

Then he looked at Liu Tai and said, "Tai'er, do you have any ideas, if so, just talk about it!" ”

"The two generals Li Gu and Cao Wei have thought quite comprehensively, and Tai has nothing to add!" Liu Tai shook his head and said,

"Uncle Jianfeng pointed out, Tai led his soldiers to rush!"

"Hahaha!" When Wang Mi heard Liu Tai's words, he couldn't help laughing.

Cao Wei and Li Gu glanced at each other, and couldn't help but feel that it was hard to say how the soldiers trained by Liu Tai were good, but it seemed that this sycophant kung fu was at least at the level of a poor family, anyway, he couldn't say these words!

Liu Tai understands that any war and any plan is indispensable in the end.

And since Wang Mi has decided to fight head-on, it is certain that the next fight will be quite tragic.

Soon, Wang Mi still adopted Li Gu's plan and began to build defensive facilities around Changping.

When Wang Kuang led an army of 30,000 to Changping, he naturally found that Wang Mi had been waiting here.

At the same time, the scouts came to report that Wang Mi's army was building defenses, and did not see the banner of Liu Cong, the king of Chu of the Xiongnu Han Kingdom.

Liu Cong's troops stepped on the Yellow River several times, so there were not many people in the Jin court who knew Liu Cong.

When he found that there was no Liu Cong's army in the army that intercepted him, and Wang Mi's army was still building defenses, this made Shi Rong can't help but say to Wang Kuang, "Could it be that the Shangdang has not been broken by the puppet Han, so the puppet Han will act like this!" ”

Wang Kuang couldn't help frowning when he heard Shi Rong's words, to be honest, he vaguely felt that something was wrong.

But in any case, the other party blocked Changping and did not take the initiative to attack, but built a defense here, how to look at it like it was to stop itself from advancing, not like it wanted to attack itself.

Wang Kuang thought for a while and said decisively, "In this case, then we will concentrate our efforts on breaking the other party's obstruction!" ”

"So it's decided to attack?!" Shi Rong didn't expect Wang Kuang to make a decision so quickly, and couldn't help but say,

"Shall we wait and send scouts to the north to investigate? After all, it's just speculation! ”

"Shangdang is waiting for us, Liu Kun is waiting for us, it has consumed too much unnecessary time to get here from Huainan, even if it takes human life to pile up, you have to open this road for me!" Wang Kuang said coldly.

Wang Kuang's strategic vision is different from Shi Rong's, Wang Kuang knows very well that Liu Kun finally created an opportunity for the north-south alliance through Shangdang County, if he lets it go this time, I am afraid that there will be no next time.

Therefore, Wang Kuang knows very well that for the sake of Wancheng's strategy, what is wrong with sacrificing the soldiers below, aren't these soldiers used to sacrifice, otherwise what would the Jin Court do with them!

Wang Kuang has a long-term vision and a very clear strategic thinking, but because of the common problem of being born in a big family, Mo said that these low-level soldiers, even ordinary poor families may not be in his eyes, for him, the death of soldiers is just a number, he just wants to achieve his strategic goals.

"Nuo......" Shi Rong also wanted to persuade him, at least until the safety around Changping was ensured and a good logistics supply line was established.

But in the face of Wang Kuang, who had already made a decision, Shi Rong's expression couldn't help but be stupid, and he couldn't say anything in the end.

After all, how can I say this, this is the Langya Wang family.

The head of the Langya Wang family, who can get involved with Sima Yue and Sima Rui, the two bigwigs of the Sima family, is still too majestic for Shi Rong.

Therefore, just now in Chang'an's camp, the Jin army consciously began to attack the defense line established by Wang Mi.

Because of the time, this defense line can't be said to be very good, but a few traps, a few breakthroughs, a few arrow towers, and some thistles can be done after all.

The most important thing is that the army under Wang Mi's command has an easy time these days, and it can be said that they are waiting for work, but the Jin army does not say that they have traveled thousands of miles to rush over, and as soon as they rush over, they are thrown into the tragic battlefield fighting, and it can be said that they have accumulated a very serious sense of fatigue.

This feeling of fatigue may not affect their strength, but it will definitely make them disgusted with war when they can't attack for a long time, especially if they can't attack this position after several attacks, the disgust is even stronger.

And this section of defense where Liu Tai is located is even more stable at this moment, and Liu Tai also has more time to observe the Jin army.

It can be said that in the first year of Yongjia, he and Wang Mi were chased and killed by Wang Heng and Beigong Chun, and the army was defeated by the Jin court.

But now it is the third year of Yongjia, and it has not yet been two years, and the army of the Jin court has become more degenerate, but the soldiers under Wang Mi are more elite.

If they still had a little bit of the shadow of professional soldiers at the beginning, then now Liu Tai can clearly feel that these soldiers of the Jin court just rushed up blindly and blankly, adhering to the instinctive resistance, and did not give full play to the strength that the army organization should have.

The Jin army from top to bottom all had the idea that they were just eating and shooting two arrows in battle, and they were already worthy of the emperor of the Jin Dynasty, so why should they be desperate on the battlefield now.

This made this group of soldiers rush at their own position as if the tide was surging, but the speed of retreat was even faster.

Several times, Liu Taidu looked at this group of soldiers of the Jin Court, and he didn't even rush to his own position, he just let the soldiers shoot a few arrows, and then they immediately swarmed and couldn't bear the slightest battle damage, and then scattered away, making people feel that it was okay to fake.

"Has the Jin soldiers reached this point?!" Liu Tai looked at the scene in front of him and was a little dazed.

Although he knew that Jin Ting was very bad, the decay speed of Jin Ting still far exceeded the bottom line that Liu Tai expected.

At this moment, Wang Kuang watched his army attack several times, and he hadn't even attacked the opposite position, and the opposite side only shot a few waves of arrows, that is, birds and beasts scattered, which made Wang Kuang realize the garbage of the Jin court soldiers for the first time.

There is no way, Wang Kuang is the product of the political struggle between Sima Yue and Sima Rui, and what he relies on is the elite of Huainan in his hands.

Although when he went north, he didn't think that Sima Yue's army would be any better, but it was so bad that Wang Kuang couldn't help but wonder if Sima Yue knew the meaning of this war, or if the soldiers in the entire Jin court center were rotten like this!

After a day of offensive and defensive battles, Wang Mi felt that Sima Yue's army seemed to be much weaker than he expected.

Originally, I was ready to lose a few positions, but after a day of fighting, I didn't lose a single position?!

It's incredible.

"I always feel that the other side is not very powerful!" Wang Mi pondered and said, "Isn't the other side showing weakness to the enemy?" ”

Wang Mi was chased by the Jin court all the way from Qingzhou to Luoyang, and then was beaten across the Yellow River, and suddenly saw that the Jin army was suddenly so weak.

Wang Mi thought that it was neither that he was strong, nor that the other party was weak, but that the other side would not be ready to set a trap on himself.

I have to say that not only Wang Mi has such an idea, but even Cao Wei and Li Gu are the same at this moment.

However, Liu Tai looked down on the Jin Court from beginning to end, and he was not at all like the people of this era who had a bit of a burden that they couldn't shake off when facing the Jin Court.

It's as if Liu Tai didn't have a little psychological pressure to join Liu Yuan, after all, they were all people from a thousand years ago, maybe he still had Xiongnu blood? What do you have to pay attention to?

As long as there is a name and a surname in modern China, who has ancestors is not an aristocrat, the most important thing for the Chinese nation is only cultural identity.

So Liu Tai stood up and said to Wang Mi for the first time, "Whether the other party is strong or not, we will know if we attack once tonight!" ”

"You think it's a counteroffensive tonight?!" When everyone heard Liu Tai's words, they didn't expect Liu Tai to be in such a hurry.

"Hmm!" Liu Tai nodded and said, "When the other party first came to Changping, they directly fought with us, which shows that there are not many defense facilities around their camp.

Secondly, in today's battle, in the end, the opponent is the main attack, and we are the main defense, and they consume more and are more likely to be tired.

The most important thing is that if the other party is really an old and weak soldier, then a late-night attack is the easiest to form a camp roar.

In that case, why not gamble!

On the contrary, if the time drags on for a long time, even if the King of Chu succeeds in running out of food, we will also need to face their battle of trapped beasts! ”

"So let's launch a general attack directly on the other side!" Liu Tai looked at Wang Mi and said, "Just look at the strength of the other party!" ”

"Hmm......" Wang Mi couldn't help but think about it when he heard Liu Tai's words.

To be honest, don't look at Liu Tai's young age, but in military affairs, Wang Mi still believes in Liu Tai's judgment.

This is not an unwarranted trust, but Liu Tai's cleverness in providing advice to the eldest son, or the courage of 400 people to capture Yecheng at the beginning, all show that Liu Tai has a different kind of talent in military affairs.

Compared with a normal person like himself, who has been defeated and fought repeatedly, Wang Mi really feels that Liu Tai is the kind of natural general like Huo Quzhi.

At least neither Cao Wei nor Li Gu realized that the counterattack was a fighter at this time, but Liu Tai was aware of it, and he wanted to seize this opportunity.

Wang Mi thought for a moment and said to Liu Tai, "And according to what you said, I will personally press you for the attack tonight!" ”

"No!" Liu Tai heard Wang Mi's words and replied decisively.

Liu Tai's eyes unconsciously looked towards Wang Kuang's camp, but he was curious in his heart, what Wang Kuang was going to do today!

Wang Kuang obviously learned the lessons of today's battlefield, and after consulting with Shi Rong, he selected soldiers from his relatively elite Huainan soldiers and reorganized them into a law enforcement team.

It is unrealistic to want these Jin court soldiers to become elites immediately, so they can only threaten them with death and fear and make them dare to fight!

Wang Kuang looked at the military map and couldn't help thinking, "When my army breaks through the obstruction, aids the party, drives out the hypocrisy, restores the state, and then cleans up the warlords of Youzhou, I will definitely be able to make my Great Jin prosperous again!"

I didn't expect that my Wang Kuang also has the talent of Zhuge , and he will definitely be able to leave his name in history in the future! ”

Wang Kuang thought about his perfect plan, and lay on his bed in thought.

Let's sleep first, tomorrow I will definitely break the puppet Han army that obstructs me!
