Chapter 564: Countermeasures

Wu Yuehou finally made a decision; Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Even if you have this determination, but how to fight against the water, there is a lot of knowledge in it, two million troops, for a medium vassal state, that is more than half of the total population, if it is not for Chen Jiang and Li Jiang plus Poyang Lake, it is absolutely no problem to sweep Wuwei and half of Xia Kingdom.

But it was this trench that made it difficult for Wuyuehou's millions of troops to exert their might, so that the coalition army made him suffer several losses, and even the Marquis of Jinyang fell into the hands of the other party, trapping him in passivity.

Now Zhang Xian has secretly sent people to burn his grain and grass hoarding places Kancheng and Yucheng, and cut off the grain route, if he is not afraid of being ruined, he can still ensure the safe withdrawal of millions of people and horses.

But he was provoked by Qin Kang, and he was reluctant to abandon his wealth and fame, so he decided to fight.

Zhang Xian, Liu Yong and Wang Yan sat in Shunyi City.

All kinds of information were sent in a steady stream, and in the back hall of the county office, the three of them watched the staff officers busy, and they classified the information of the analysts and marked them on the sand table.

"Newspaper. ”

"Speak. ”

"General Miao has arrived at the designated position and is waiting for orders. ”

Miao Xin entered the territory of Baling, but he did not let the troops stop, but passed through directly, and the troops were stationed to collect grain.

It is now a scorched earth, and even Xiayu Pass has been burned to the ground.

The valley and the surrounding mountains were all dark, without any life, and the soldiers of the Shenwei Army were also cold when they saw this scene.

"Well, let's let some of the Miao Xin faction first restrain those Qin people and bury them. ”

A fire burned so many people, Zhang Xian didn't feel good in his heart, but in order for more people to live safely, he had to.

"Also, let them pay close attention to the movements of the Qin army, I have a feeling that Wu Yuehou may make a move to seize Wuling City for the second time. ”

"Yes, it's possible. ”

Wang Yan also had a hunch.

Xiao Fei drafted the decree, and Liu Yong and Wang Yan said they had no objection after reading it, so they handed it to Zhang Xian, who signed and stamped it with his seal, Xiao Fei sealed it, and then issued it.

After dealing with this matter, Liu Yong suddenly proposed;

"I think it's appropriate to let Song Xin's northern army retreat thirty miles. ”

"Huh?"

Zhang Xian and Wang Yan were shocked at first, then glanced at each other, and then high-fived at the same time.

"Okay, good idea. ”

The 100,000 people of Song Xin's Northern Army were stationed on the bank of the Chen River in the north of Xijiaocheng, and they were jointly camped for dozens of miles, confronting the Qin Army's Chinese army camp on the north bank of the Chen River.

Liu Yong's plan is a plan, I will withdraw thirty miles to leave you a land, if you dare to come over to fight, then come over.

Liu Yong is a general, and he uses a general's demeanor strategy.

But if a person adopts such a strategy, there will be two situations, one is that he has no fear, is not afraid of the enemy, and lets you come over and destroy you in the same way.

The second is arrogance, or stupid chivalry, and a fair fight.

What Liu Yong did was not fearless, nor was he knightly, he was luring the enemy to go deep, and he was luring the enemy deep under the sun.

It is to tell Qin Jun, I am retreating with a purpose, do you dare to come over?

As for Zhang Xian, Wang Yan applauded and called it a wonderful plan, which is for a reason.

Don't forget that Xia has a powerful navy and has prepared to set fire to the river.

Originally, this poisonous plan was used on the Li River, but now the Marquis of Jinyang was captured, and Li Chaoyang confronted the coalition army in the northwest, and the mouth of the Sancha River was not controlled by the Qin army, and the Xia army and the navy could enter the Chen River without any scruples, so the water army burned the river and moved it to the Chen River.

If the Qin army builds a pontoon bridge to cross the river, the naval army will set fire to the river according to the situation, and if it lets go of a part of the Qin army, burns a part of the Qin army to death, and cuts off a part of the Qin army on the north bank, wouldn't it be wonderful if it works well.

Xiao Fei continued to give orders.

"Where are the Black Flag Army now?"

"The main force of the Black Flag Army withdrew to Maoshan, and the men and horses led by General Zhao were sent into Poyang Lake by the naval army. ”

A staff officer hurriedly found two pieces of information and sent them over, and dictated the location of the two Black Flag Army.

"The navy can't get to the area of Maoshan for the time being, send a letter to Su Jie, and ask them to send the navy to assist Zuo Xuan, and let Zuo Xuan stay in Maoshan for the time being. ”

After Zhang Xian and the three of them negotiated for a while, they felt that letting the Black Flag Army rest in Maoshan for a period of time could be regarded as a reserve army.

If the Sushan State could not support it, the Black Flag Army could take a boat down the river to support them, or they could surprise the Qin army's flank.

"General Ma's Jiewei Army should be used. ”

Wang Yan, who was finally looking at the sand table, raised his head and suggested to Zhang Xian and Liu Yong.

"Your Majesty, General, look here. ”

Wang Yan pointed to Qinyang City in the upper reaches of the Li River, in the territory of Wuwei Kingdom, west of Poyang Lake.

"The coalition army only stationed a small number of men and horses here, and this section of the river is relatively narrow, and on the opposite side of it is the first pass of Zongye Guoyu and Zhuliang Mountain, if the Qin army really captures Wuling City for the second time, Zongye State is destined to not be able to hold this first pass.

After the Qin army snatched the first pass, they entered the mountains, where there were many burned trees, and if they cut down trees to build bridges, our plans for burning the river would be different.

If the Qin army chooses to cross the river at the same time, then the pressure on Song Xin downstream will be great.

In order to prevent accidents, I suggested that General Zhao's 4,000 Black Flag Army should go out of Shuize and rush to Qinyang City immediately, General Ma's Jiewei Army quickly crossed the river and entered Poyang Lake, ready to support the Northern Army at any time, and the Wuwei Army of the Surveying City quickly extended the Chen River upstream, and the Ling Wei Army stayed behind to guard Beishan and the other to defend the Surveying City. ”

Wang Yan explained, Zhang Xian and Liu Yong felt that the situation was serious, originally they didn't think about it so much, and Long Xinfang didn't expect that Wu Yuehou would fight to the death, if Wu Yuehou came to a full flower, it would be impossible to figure out the direction of his main attack.

Since you can't find the direction of his main attack, you have to defend comprehensively, but with such a long front, compared to the opponent's strength and the original idea of focusing on defense, there are more loopholes.

Zhuliang Mountain and Yuqian Pass that Wang Yan said, because it was Li Chaoyang garrisoned, Long Xinfang didn't care too much about there, but Li Chaoyang was transferred to the Northwest Defense Coalition Army by Wu Yuehou, and the 200,000 Qin troops he left behind would not be at his disposal, if these 200,000 horses were directly ordered by Wu Yuehou to capture Yuqian Pass, after capturing the pass, they did not advance, but chose to force the Chen River, and the Shenwei Army was stationed to collect grain and grain.

And there are not many coalition troops in Qinyang City on the other side, and this opening has been torn open, which is a major blow to the coalition army, but it is too late to transfer troops now, so only send Zhao Bengao's 4,000 Black Flag Army there to reinforce first, just in case.

In this way, with the support of the naval army, this crisis can be solved.

Then the pressure on the Wuyue Hou Chinese army faced by Song Xin downstream was greater.

According to their speculation, it is very likely that Wuyue Hou chose this place as a breakthrough, because this place can be killed to the west towards Qinyang City, from where it can bypass Poyang Lake and attack Wuduo City directly, and if it goes well, it will take less than two days to arrive.

Wuduo City was the material reserve of the coalition army, and the grain, grass and equipment were all concentrated there.

To the northeast, Ben Kanding City, where is the material reserve of the Xia Kingdom, and the food and weapons of the Xia Kingdom's army can be concentrated there.

The grain and grass materials of the Xia Kingdom were all provided by themselves, and some of them were also provided to the coalition forces.

Zhang Xian took the Qin army's grain land, robbed people's grain, and cut off the supply of more than 2 million people and horses.

Then his first choice should be a head-on breakout.

But maybe Wuyue Houjian will go sideways and attack Sushan with all his might, as long as he occupies Sushan, he can also get grain and grass, but it is relatively longer, after all, Sushan is in the northeast, far away from the Qin army's station.

As for killing Suli Kingdom, it will be a little difficult, that area is mountainous, and there is a Chen River separated by the river, and the army cannot be used.

Besides, it is the most barren place in the Suli country, in the last war, several cities in the area of Beishan were too damaged, and now the war is together, and the people there have retreated into the hinterland of the Suli country, and now only the Ling Wei army is garrisoned.

There are two possibilities to seize Wuling City for the second time to the west, and this must be guarded against, so the Shenwei Army was put there.

Zhang Xian reacted quickly, and according to Wang Yan's train of thought, he asked the general to give orders.

The Black Flag Army does not belong to the military department, but belongs to the army directly under the king, and the military department of the Taiwei Mansion has no right to command, and the other armies are in charge of Liu Yong.

Zhang Xian did not want to participate in the coalition forces, but the transfer of the headquarters was still notified to them in time so that they could coordinate with each other.

There is no objection to this point of the coalition army, after all, hundreds of thousands of main forces of the Xia State have been invested, and they are the main force to resist Qin, and they have also given up all the benefits that are about to be obtained, and have made huge sacrifices, and their hearts are very sincere.

The Xia army was urgently mobilized, and the coalition forces got the news and quickly made adjustments, because the strength was not as good as the Qin army, and they could only make a passive defense.

If the enemy does not move, I will not move.

is also helpless, although he knows that he has forced the Qin army to a dead end, but he is still unable to take the initiative to attack.

After arranging everything, Zhang Xian and the three of them were also very tired.

Zhang Xian returned to his temporary palace, and he asked Xiao Fei to find Uncle Tai.

"Uncle Tai, use confidential channels to inform Xiao Lao and Cheng Lao, let them wait for the opportunity to fight with Li Chaoyang, and then withdraw to Baling Country to the west, let go of the 300,000 horses in Li Chaoyang, and 、、、 find a way to supply them with some grain and grass. ”

Zhang Xian explained.

"Oh!"

Uncle Tai promised to do it.

This channel can only be done by Uncle Tai alone, of course, through the Red Evil, but at the top secret level.

"Where are they now?"

Zhang Xian remembered Miao Baichuan, and a group of more than a dozen of them were boiled over.

Zhang Xian didn't see them, so he asked Xiao Fei.

"Before, they went with the navy, just now I saw the military report from General Zhang, Miao Lao led 5,000 sailors to escort 10,000 Liangzhou horses to Luokou City. ”

What's the situation?

Zhang Xian originally planned to let Miao Baichuan go to the Black Flag Army to participate in training and guidance、、、、
