Chapter 532 The Raiders
In this camp, many generals stayed up all night.
Naturally, countless important military information will be delivered every day like flowing water, but for these generals, Zhongli's military information is particularly important at this time.
In a large tent, a huge sand table is placed in the center.
There were at least a dozen famous generals from the border troops sitting around the sand table.
There was some meat in the porcelain plate in front of these generals, but no one seemed to have touched it, so the semi-condensed and uncondensed white oil flowers looked a little bit greasy.
Some of them would occasionally pass through the gap in the tent door and land on the big tent where Xiao Hong was in the distance.
In their opinion, or in their hopes, Xiao Hong should convene a meeting at night.
In the sand table deduction of all of them, the battle of Zhongli City is highly likely to become the key point for the complete victory of the Southern Dynasty.
If any of them sat at Xiao Hong's position at this time, they would definitely try their best to annihilate Xi Ruyu's 100,000 army and Yang Dian's 30,000 White Bone Lords in Zhongli area.
However, until the sky was about to be bright and the sky in the east was already slightly bright, and the big tent was still the same, they were finally completely disappointed.
If you are too disappointed, you will become angry.
A black-faced general's face became darker than the sky outside because of his anger. He stood up, but just before he was about to leave, a veteran who was always watching the military briefing raised his head, looked at him, and said, "You are also a veteran who has been with General Lan for many years. You should know that anger and internal struggle cannot solve the problem at such a time."
The eyes of all the generals in this camp fell on the veteran.
The black-faced general's body was slightly stiff. If others said this, he might be even more angry. However, the veteran was talking. After a moment of stiffness, he sat down silently.
"I also know that the key is to find a way. But solving Zhongli's problem is not something that can be decided by a soldier."
The black-faced general took a deep breath and said with a cold voice: "Without the commander's seal and military talisman and his handwriting, who can mobilize the troops and food along the way?"
"According to the current military situation, even if we do nothing, even if Yang Dian can quickly take down Zhongli City, under the resistance of the Lin Yi army of Tie Ce Army, the 130,000 Northern Wei army was still suffering a lot. The most important thing is that the practitioners suffered a lot."
The old man with gray hair rubbed his sore eyes and did not respond to his words positively. He just said softly slowly: "Imagine General Wei's army attacked Zhongli. What is he missing?"
"In my opinion, even if General Wei cannot defeat Yang Dian with a strong momentum, the worst result is to fight Yang Dian to lose both sides." A red armor general with an indecent expression sneered: "What he lacks is someone who can restrain the rest of the army of King Yuanying of Zhongshan."
“That’s not the worst result.”
The veteran looked at the general wearing red leather armor with some praise, shook his head, and said calmly: "Although there is no exact military information that Dangxiang will invade our Southern Dynasties, there are signs that some supplies from Zhongshan Wang Yuanying came from Dangxiang. Dangxiang's people are not timid, but many powerful people of Dangxiang are too lazy, they are just too lazy to cut this piece of meat. But if they think that this piece of meat is not only cut, but even cooked, and delivered to their mouths, they cannot not eat it."
"Zhongshan Wang Yuanying was known as the Zhongshan wolf in the Northern Wei Dynasty, not just because his army was as brave as a wolf."
After a pause, the veteran continued: "As long as his main army can still advance steadily, he can easily create a feeling that he can eat meat for the Dangxiang people."
"So, it is not enough to simply restrain his remaining troops and prevent Wei Rui's army from being able to divide and encircle Wei Rui's army."
The black-faced general calmed down completely. He frowned deeply and said in a cold voice: "So according to your opinion, what General Wei Rui may have to face in the end is the lively army of Dangxiang."
"The Dangxiang group of people had never fought a decent battle, but they also had a lot of things that we were not familiar with, such as firearms."
The veteran nodded and said, "But the most important thing is that by that time, both Yuanying's army and Wei Rui's army were already at the end of their strength. Even if Dangxiang and others did not know the tactics, as long as the number of troops was sufficient, Wei Rui would probably not be able to withstand even if there was a chaos of war."
The general wearing red armor figured out something at the first time and said in a deep voice: "So it is absolutely not enough to restrain yourself. The army of Zhongshan Wang Yuanying must be exhausted and even forced to return to the army."
Listening to his words, the rest of the silent generals in the camp were surprised at the same time, "What do you mean..."
"Of course we can do it. At this time, the elite troops of the Northern Wei Dynasty were already in our territory, so there was no need for many. We only needed tens of thousands of elite troops, and like him, we would detour to attack the Northern Wei city. As long as we seemed to be approaching Luoyang, according to my deduction, the Northern Wei Dynasty would definitely let him re-suscitate."
The veteran said calmly but firmly: "As long as his army returns, Dangxiang's people will never send troops. If they don't send troops, we will not lose our troops to deal with their army."
"If this is true, even if I lead the army, I will have no regrets to die in the Northern Wei Dynasty."
The black-faced general said in a cold voice: "But Xiao Hong will never agree. These people are too gentle in their work, and this kind of plan seems too radical in their opinion."
"I finally understand why Chen Jinru would rather do such a thing than let him lead the army." A middle-aged general who had never spoken out said softly: "You had hope before and were waiting for him to call for the discussion, but before nightfall, I felt that he would definitely not do this. Chen Jinru was in Zhongli... And who was the one who led the army to fight to the death at Zhongli at this time? It was Lin Wangbei's son."
All the generals in the tent understood what he meant.
Among the two border troops of Mingwei and Dingyuan, many of them were Lin Wangbei's old subordinates.
A son can be noble by his father, and a father can also make a comeback by his son.
If Lin Yi made unparalleled military achievements and could survive, what kind of support could Lin Yi get in the army?
Lin Yi and Lin Wangbei may become huge hidden dangers in the eyes of the Xiao family.
"After all, it's too stingy, this is the biggest problem." A general said hatefully.
Many generals who oppose Xiao Hong are surprisingly consistent in their opinions. Xiao Hong’s biggest problem is not the strategic layout, but his character is too petty.
"I will tell you to be less angry, less complain, and more solutions at first."
