Chapter 236: Hit Whom?
Zhang Mingxuan looked at Jiang Huai for a moment, and then said: "General Qiyu, we believe that at this time, for our army, there are three plans that can be implemented, one of which is to keep the troops moving, which is also the most secure plan, but this does require sending more reinforcements, but this takes time, and the reinforcements are not easy to say! This is a point.
Second, that is to attack Fengzhou, the reason is very simple, the enemy's large force will soon come to help, if in order to strike first, we must attack, and Fengzhou only has more than 100,000 defenders, which is a good goal, but there is a shortcoming, that is, the average quality of the enemy is high, which cannot be ignored!
Third, in view of the fact that the defenders of Fengzhou are very strong, we can attack Linjiang Zhijun, although they are numerous, but they have just suffered a great change, Qiuxing has a fever, the army is unstable, and the military needs are insufficient, it is a good time to attack, but there are two shortcomings, that is, there are more than 200,000 troops in Linjiang, and there are many people, and secondly, once we trek to attack Linjiang, we will face the danger of being attacked by Yunzhou and the danger of being attacked from front to back!"
Speaking of this, Zhang Mingxuan paused for a while and said: "These three plans have advantages and disadvantages to each other, and it is difficult to say, but these are the most obvious ones, and the others are all trivial, and I ask the general to adjudicate!"
Jiang Huai couldn't help but be silent when he heard this, these three plans are all dangerous, although it is said that it is the safest to stick to Yunzhou and wait for reinforcements, but he is already a reinforcement, and he actually needs reinforcements? Besides, there are basically no reinforcements in the future, unless a new army is recruited, but this will take time! Jiang Huai thought about it for a while and gave up, although he said that his identity was special, and there would definitely be reinforcements at that time, but Jiang Huai still did not plan to use this method, but first pass back the information and let them have a headache!
Since Jianghuai does not plan to hold on, it is to attack, so it is necessary to strike first, otherwise once the enemy reinforcements come, the three armies will be encircled, Yunzhou is only 400,000 people, and the outcome is difficult to predict, so which one to choose as the target is the most important, Fengzhou has a small number of people, but the combat effectiveness is strong, and the combat effectiveness of Zhijun is weak, and it is a panicked army, but the number is large, once it cannot be fought down in a short time, the consequences are extremely serious, plus the people are defending the city, and the art of war is surrounded by ten clouds, Jianghuai has only 400,000 people under his hands, and it is impossible to pull them out all at once。
Jiang Huai was embarrassed, thought for a while, and had no clue, so he asked: "Changfeng, what do you have in mind?" Although Lin Changfeng said that he discussed these countermeasures with Zhang Mingxuan, Jiang Huai believed that these two guys must have a plan in their hearts, but they haven't said it yet.
Lin Changfeng nodded, arched his hand, and said: "Returning to the general, stick to Yunzhou, the subordinates think that it is still not advisable until the last resort, so the subordinates advocate attacking, but the knowledge of the attack is very large, but the subordinates think that it is best to attack the straight county, first, General Zhang has said just now, the situation in the straight county is very bad, and once the direct county is captured, it can be attacked and retreated, it can be strangled, and the throat can be choked, and the enemy army can not be connected, but the risk is greater. After saying this, Lin Changfeng couldn't help but be silent, he naturally knew the risks, but the Jiang family didn't have many reinforcements anymore, and there was basically no difference between holding on and waiting for death.
Jiang Huai was noncommittal to Lin Changfeng's remarks, and instead said, "Mingxuan, tell me about your plan." ”
Zhang Mingxuan didn't say much, just reiterated Fengzhou's plan again Obviously, Zhang Mingxuan advocated attacking Fengzhou, first, Fengzhou has more information, although Qiu Xingfa has been undercover in Zhijun, but it is not as good as Zhang Mingxuan to send someone to investigate Fengzhou in detail, in general, the attack on Fengzhou is bigger, the risk is smaller, but the risk of attacking Zhijun is very large, and it is difficult to predict which kind of risk it is, it is the defense of Yunzhou, or it is difficult to say.
The three of them chatted for a long time, opened the map and looked carefully, after a full hour, they didn't think of any good way, the best of both worlds is even more impossible, Jiang Huai couldn't help but feel extremely frustrated, he thought that war was an art, and the most perfect method could always be found in it, but the reality taught him a cruel lesson: the most perfect method may or may not exist, this is Jiang Huai can not be sure, but Jiang Huai is sure that he must not have found the most perfect method!
Jiang Huai scratched his hair anxiously, he was simply going to be angry, even if Jiang Huai took the attention at this time, he could not march directly, after all, his soldiers had just mutinied, and although Jiang Huai had some prestige, it was not enough to command this army, and the Jiang Huai army had just arrived, and there was not enough contact with the brother army, these were very big problems! But for Jiang Huai, these were simply fatal problems like climbing to the sky!
Jiang Huai looked at the map, and suddenly felt that the map seemed to come to life, he was laughing at himself, contemptuous of himself, he was laughing at an incompetent clown, Jiang Huai was angry, reached out and grabbed the leather map, his hand became like an eagle's claw, and he grabbed the map tightly, and then threw the map out, sat on the seat, lowered his head, and was silent for a long time.
Lin Changfeng and Zhang Mingxuan were talking about something, and they couldn't help but be taken aback when they saw the crazy Jianghuai, but they didn't know what to say, they had all experienced this kind of emotion, but it was definitely not as strong as Jianghuai's frustration, the reason was very simple: Jianghuai was in a high position from the beginning, holding hundreds of thousands of troops, and hundreds of thousands of people responded to the order.
Lin Changfeng is not, although they also have some relationships in their family, but they are not like this at the beginning, for example, Zhang Mingxuan was a scout camp at first, and then slowly became a partial general and a general, and later made great contributions when Yunfeng recovered, and the governor of Yunfeng at that time was seriously injured, so he had to return to the rear, so he was promoted to the governor of Yunfeng and acted as the governor of Yunfeng.
As for Lin Changfeng, it is even more legendary, Lin Changfeng was not a military general, but a civil official, originally just a small imperial history of the Imperial Inspectorate, and was later transferred to the Ministry of War as a member of the Military Selection Division, originally the Military Selection Division was a fat difference, where Lin Changfeng was also at ease for a while, but unfortunately he offended people later, and was transferred to the Ministry of Labor to be Langzhong, and became the head of the Department of Staff, responsible for carrying the black pot, the original intention was to get rid of Lin Changfeng, thinking that Lin Changfeng was just an ordinary person, where to know the way of arranging troops, but unfortunately the sky does not follow people's wishes, Lin Changfeng is actually self-taught, and he has done a prosperous job in the Ministry of War, and later he was promoted to the left waiter of the Ministry of War!
Later, because he had been excluded, he was transferred by Jianghuai's second uncle to become a guerrilla general outside. Later, he made a lot of contributions, but he was not promoted quickly, but he was just a guard. Of course, now Lin Changfeng is a celebrity under Jianghuai, Jianghuai's status is similar to that of Yunfeng's governor, and there is also an appointment of General Fuyuan, speaking of which Lin Changfeng's status is growing day by day!
Therefore, although the two of them also encountered various setbacks when they first entered the battlefield, they were nothing compared to Jiang Huai, who was only 20 years old, and was born with a golden key, so how much suffering could they endure? This is Lin Changfeng's opinion. With the life and death of hundreds of thousands of troops, Jianghuai is not a gentleman, and he has a sense of responsibility in his heart, this kind of pressure, without it, Jianghuai is crazy, it is already very difficult.
At this time, Lin Changfeng complained a little bit about Jiang Lei, thinking that Jiang Huai was still too young, why did he have to let him suffer like this? Lin Changfeng didn't understand, as for Zhang Mingxuan, he didn't understand, so the two just watched silently, without saying a word, and after a long time, Jiang Huai quieted down and said: "You first send people to stabilize the morale of the army, no matter who we fight, we will always go on the expedition, prepare well first, I will make a decision tomorrow." ”
Lin Changfeng and Zhang Mingxuan glanced at each other, and felt that it was not a big deal, even if Jianghuai gave an order now, it would not work, and he would have to dispatch the army, right? It is a pity that it is estimated that the soldiers' salaries have not yet been paid at this time! After a while, Lin Changfeng said: "Obey the order, and the subordinates will retire." ”
Jiang Huai didn't say anything, just waved his hand, and let Lin Changfeng leave, but Zhang Mingxuan was embarrassed, this place is his, Jiang Huai's mansion is not here, could it be that he also retired? Just as Zhang Mingxuan was about to leave, Jiang Huai opened his mouth and said, "Mingxuan, how sure are you about defeating Fengzhou?"
Zhang Mingxuan was taken aback, he didn't expect Jiang Huai to break Lin Changfeng away and ask this question again, could it be to take Lin Changfeng's face into consideration? Zhang Mingxuan guessed, but he still felt that it was wrong, but the most important thing at the moment was to answer Jiang Huai's words, so Zhang Mingxuan hurriedly said: "General Huiyu, his subordinates know Fengzhou very well, and they wanted to attack Fengzhou for a long time, but they suffered from the lack of soldiers in their hands and the lack of military supplies, so they have always sighed with admiration......
"I have a lot of military expenses on my face on the road, I bought a lot of military supplies along the way, and I also have one hundred and twenty cannons under my hand, which have been replenished all the way, and now there are enough shells, you say, can you attack or not?" Jiang Huai said coldly.
Zhang Mingxuan was stunned when he heard this, and was almost frightened by Jiang Huai, there are still 120 cannons, and he knows all of them, and he only has 20 cannons under his hands, and there are not enough cannons, so Jiang Huai's subordinates are actually ...... Suddenly, Zhang Mingxuan understood why the Jiang family wanted to send Jianghuai out, this was not reinforcements, it was to let Jianghuai attack, these one hundred and twenty cannons, as long as they were used properly, they would definitely be able to capture Fengzhou with minimal losses, and even the counties would be defeated together!
Zhang Mingxuan couldn't help but be overjoyed, and even blamed Jianghuai for why he wanted to scare himself, there was such a good thing that didn't show up early, it's really ......
