Chapter 5321: The loss outweighs the gains and the disillusionment of the army
Kumarajiva gritted his teeth: "Then do you have a way to crack this cavalry tactics? Huh, I think you are just exaggerating. In the past hundred years of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, even Huan Wen has been beaten to pieces by the northern Hu cavalry.
, ruined his reputation for a lifetime, only Liu Yu defeated Nan Yan's cavalry in Qingzhou, but that was also the result of the Yan army actively seeking a decisive battle with the Jin army. The kind of wandering without attacking you mentioned comes and goes without a trace.
Liu Yu has never seen the Rangers' play style. How can you crack it?"
Doupeng smiled slightly: "This is because you, the great monk, don't know the art of war. In fact, the Yan army can actually deal with Liu Yu by wandering without attacking and cutting off Liu Yu's supply route. The reason why Heipao accomplished his success in the battle of Linqu is
His consideration was that from a military point of view, Liu Yu's army had just passed through Daxian Mountain and was heading straight for Linqu. Linqu was the most critical town in the south of Qingzhou. It stored a large amount of weapons and food and was surrounded by thousands of hectares of fertile land. It was early summer and there was about to be a good harvest.
Yu chose this time to send troops. Opportunities and crises coexisted. If he won the battle and occupied Linqu, he could harvest the surrounding crops for military supplies. If he failed, it would be like a last-ditch battle. Behind him was Daxian Mountain, which blocked the narrow mountain road.
It is not enough to support the rapid withdrawal of his entire army, and I am afraid that the entire army will be sent to the north of the mountain."
Kumarajiva frowned: "So, the black-robed Murong Chui gathered the main force of Nanyan Yan at that time, especially tens of thousands of armored cavalry, and went into this battle, just to completely defeat the Jin army on the Linqu Plain.
Then the Jin army will be like the Battle of Wuqiaoze that year, with the Zhang River as a barrier and no way to retreat?"
Doupeng nodded: "Yes, that's what he thinks. This is based on his absolute confidence in the impact of the armored cavalry on the plains. In addition, he also has the secret and forbidden techniques of our Tiandao Alliance.
The commander of the Chinese army can dispatch immortals, sky lanterns, mechanism techniques, etc., and even cross the front line and parachute immortals directly at Liu Yu's command platform in order to behead the enemy with one blow."
Kumarajiva sighed: "With these terrible weapons of war, it's no wonder that Heipao is so confident. If he doesn't fight this battle, he will have to abandon Linqu, and will have to destroy tens of thousands of hectares of rice fields around Linqu that are about to mature, and bring the south to the south."
Hundreds of thousands of people from dozens of counties moved collectively to Guanggu, right?"
Doupeng sneered and said: "Letting the Jin army pass through the Daxian Mountains means either a decisive battle or clearing the country. But when Hou Yan faced the invasion of the Northern Wei Dynasty, he used the method of clearing the country and forcibly moving the people into the city. The result was a failure.
After exhausting the hearts of the powerful Han people in Hebei, these people turned to the Northern Wei Dynasty. Not so far ago, Murong Chui, as a witness, would not dare to use this trick again. Moreover, even if the Jin army had no supplies for a while, they could capture Linqu City.
, it can be considered half the success. After that, as long as a small number of troops are left to defend, the army withdraws, and the mountain roads of Daxian Mountain and Muling Pass are guarded, ensuring that southern Qingzhou can be entered and exited at any time, then we will be in a place where we can advance and retreat freely."
"Even if Nan Yan cannot be destroyed at one time, by taking the Shannan and Linqu lands of Nan Yan, Liu Yu can be regarded as having achieved an unprecedented feat against the northern Huru country in the hundreds of years since the Eastern Jin Dynasty traveled south. The purpose of sending troops has also been achieved, so
, this strategy of fortifying the wall and clearing the field is not feasible for Nanyan. If they just want to block Liu Yu, they will choose to block the Daxian Mountain Road and hold on to Muling Pass instead of letting the Jin army cross the mountain."
Kumarajiva said coldly: "In this way, Liu Yu forced the Yan army to fight him decisively in Linqu by attacking the enemy, because the land of Qingzhou is the Han land of the Central Plains, unlike the grassland.
As far as the eye can see, the same troops of the Jin army, mainly chariots and infantry, can move back and forth in Qingzhou, because there are fields everywhere, and there will be cities and villages within ten miles, so they will not be unable to supply, like the vast sky and wild fields you described before
It’s a confusing situation.”
Doupeng nodded: "Yes, Liu Yu can lure Murong Chui into a decisive battle by attacking the enemy with all his strength, deliberately showing weakness, and putting him to death. This is a military strategist's method. Similarly, your Qin army can also use it.
This is how to deal with Helian Bobo."
Kumarajiva spoke with sarcasm: "Just as you said, withdraw all the troops and civilians from the north of the mountain, and then use a small number of defenders to bring a year's worth of food, grass and weapons to defend a few fortresses and big cities. This is called attacking Helianbobo and saving it."
?At best, this can only be said to be a way of clearing the country with a strong wall, and it is a way of killing eighty enemies and losing a thousand to oneself. You said that the Yan State used this trick to make all the powerful Han Han landlords rebel and surrender to the Northern Wei Dynasty. That is not good for us, the Qin Dynasty.
Is it the same? If we do this, even if the Han people in Lingbiao are willing to move into Guanzhong, the Hu tribes on the grasslands will also submit to Helianbobo."
Having said this, Kumarajiva paused: "Even if according to what you said, Helianbobo sent these barbarian tribes to attack the city or provide military supplies for the besieging army, but they were unwilling, but so what? They surrendered.
Helianbobo had to obey his orders and be driven by him. He could no longer be independent. Most of the tribes under Helianbobo were conquered by him in this way, and they had to provide the nephews of their leaders and nobles as hostages. Once
If he doesn't obey orders, he will first execute the hostages, and then send troops to attack and destroy the tribes. Several tribes have already been eradicated in this way, and his methods are very fierce."
Doupeng nodded and said: "Of course I understand what you said, but violence and terror alone cannot truly win people's hearts. Even if these tribes send troops to join the war, they will still retain their strength and fight in the battle.
Hiding behind, just pretending. In this kind of battle on the grassland, if you win, you will rush forward, if you lose, you will take the lead in running away, and when the power is balanced, you will sit on the wall and wait and see. This is also the character of these small and medium-sized tribes, which has not changed for thousands of years.
."
At this point, Duopeng's eyes flashed coldly: "What makes Helian Bobo better than others is that he can win in battles. After the victory, when he distributes the spoils, he will try his best to take care of these small and medium-sized tribes and dare to rush forward.
, the tribe that is willing to exert its full strength will get a lot of benefits, so the other tribes will work harder in the next battle. In the final analysis, he depends on constant victory and the continuous benefits brought by these constant victories.
Stimulate the morale of your subordinates, stimulate their desire to be tigers and wolves, and work hard for them!"
Speaking of this, Duopeng's speech became faster and faster, and his eyes sparkled: "Helianbo's strength lies in this, using victory to drive victory, using trophies to stimulate the fighting enthusiasm of the servant tribe, and his Achilles' heel
This is also the case. Once he is unable to win, or his losses are greater than his gains, his men will quickly lose the desire to fight and even fall apart. What your Qin State has to do now is to prevent him from gaining gains, and
It’s not just about winning or losing!” (End of Chapter)
