Now that the general direction of attacking Youzhou has been decided, the generals of the Black Mountain Army are excited and gearing up, waiting for all the troops to come out and crush Youzhou into powder.
Zhang Yan spoke up and said: "The ferocious tiger of the Yuan family likes to make surprise attacks. Now I want to ask you, should you steadily advance to Zhuojun next, or do you have other good ideas?"
The generals began to think one after another and involuntarily turned their attention to the general named Guo Daxian.
Most of the generals of the Montenegrin Army came from poor backgrounds. When they raised their troops, many of them didn't even have names, so they often gave themselves a name.
This man named Guo Daxian dared to have the same name as the great master Daxian, which shows that he is conceited and wise, and has been recognized by everyone.
Seeing everyone looking at him, Guo Daxian said calmly: "There are a few choices now."
"The first is, as Mr. Zhonglang said, we will attack Youzhou step by step."
At that time, the name "adult" was used exclusively to address parents among the Han people, but in foreign tribes such as Wuhuan and Xianbei, the name "adult" represented the leader. For example, Shan Yu Tadun was called "adult" by his subordinates.
The Black Mountain Army is called this because, firstly, it is close to the border of the southern Xiongnu, and many names have the influence of Huhua. On the other hand, all the generals regard Zhang Yan, the leader of the Black Mountain Army, as their father to show their respect, so they are called this.
Seeing that everyone was listening attentively, Guo Daxian said again: "This method has advantages and disadvantages. The advantage is that there are few omissions, but the disadvantage is that it is too conservative. It may take a long time to defeat the fierce tiger, and Jizhou may not be immune in the meantime."
Will intervene."
Everyone felt the same after hearing this. Considering the size of the Black Mountain Army, it can be said that Yuan Xi, who has an army of less than 10,000 people, can be easily captured. But if Yuan Shao intervenes, it will be different.
Remembering that Yuan Shao invaded Montenegro three years ago, killed several leaders, and forced the Montenegrin army to flee into the hinterland, everyone was still frightened.
He interjected impatiently: "If time goes on for a long time, it is indeed easy to do bad things. Then the second method is to decide the outcome in the shortest time?"
After hearing this, Guo Daxian said: "This leader is right. This second method is to use all the troops and horses in Heishan to rush out of the pass of Heishan and fight to the death with the fierce tiger!"
Everyone was stunned and made a desperate move?
This is the method used by the weak against the strong, and the Black Mountain Army is much stronger than Yuan Xina's Youzhou Army. Is this necessary?
Guo Daxian explained: "Yes, when a lion fights a rabbit, you must use all your strength to determine the outcome in the shortest possible time, thus avoiding many variables."
"The advantage is that Jizhou, Yanzhou and other forces will not have time to rescue Youzhou. By the time they react, it will be too late. This is called completing their efforts in one battle."
"Of course, this method is not without its shortcomings. To mobilize hundreds of thousands of Montenegrin soldiers, a large amount of food and grass is needed. At present, our food reserves are already stretched thin, and the logistics can only support it for a few months at most."
"If we all go out and the opponent retreats to defend the city, and we are unable to attack the city, we are afraid that the food will be exhausted and the entire army will collapse."
When everyone heard this, they began to think deeply, as if this second method was very risky!
After all, there was a previous example where Bai Rao led 20,000 troops and was completely wiped out in Beixin City!
Everyone started talking and couldn't make up their minds for a while.
At this time Zhang Yan spoke.
"There are two methods, you can compromise."
"We can't wait until the army is ready before sending out troops. That would be too slow."
"But we can't passively defend and wait for the opponent to attack."
"Okay, now Montenegro is mobilizing all of them, sending out vanguard troops first, approaching Beixin City from the mountain pass in the north, forcing them to fight!"
"If the opponent challenges us and we fight with all our strength, the fierce tiger will not be easy to fight. If we fight with it, we may win or we may be frustrated."
"If the other side retreats, we can take advantage of the situation, surround the city, attack in turn, and plunder its hinterland."
"The army behind can support the army while raising food and grass to replace the army that fought earlier."
"Under such waves of offensives, try to weaken the morale and strength of the opponent's troops, and then we can gradually gain victory!"
"On the contrary, if the offensive from the other side is very fierce, we will retreat into the mountains, use complex terrain to hold them back, and then wait for an opportunity to come out of the mountains from other passes to harass and cut off their food routes!"
"This will slowly consume them and drag them into the Black Mountain. In the end, we will win!"
After everyone heard this, they suddenly felt that Zhang Yan's strategy combined the advantages of Guo Daxian's two strategies. It could be said that it was both offensive and defensive, and was extremely safe and reliable. They all shouted: "I am willing to listen to the command of Zhonglang to massacre Youzhou!"
Yang Feng saw the excitement in the crowd and thought to herself, after all that, didn't he take into account the situation in Hanoi?
Zhang Yanglu Bu has an ambiguous attitude towards the Montenegro Army. What if they turn their attention against the Montenegro Army?
With Zhang Yan's ability, it is impossible to completely ignore this point, but she avoids talking about it. Why?
Did Zhang Yan make some private deal with Zhang Yang Lu Bu in Hanoi, or was it for other reasons that he was sure that Hanoi would not interfere with the Montenegrin Army?
Yang Feng was full of doubts, but in the end she remained silent.
Forget it, it's none of your business, I've said everything I should have said before, whether Zhang Yan listened or not is no longer up to me.
Now since we want to fight, we have to punch the opponent to death!
In Beixin City, Yuan Xi and Guo Jia were discussing matters.
Guo Jia smiled and said: "Yesterday I made Xu Ziyuan drink a lot of wine and I also made a lot of jokes."
"Based on what he said, I guess Jizhou is also preparing to take a share of the pie when we attack Montenegro."
"Based on this, if we stay in Beixin City for too long, Jizhou will probably send troops to pick the fruit."
After hearing this, Yuan Xi said calmly: "It's not possible, but it will definitely happen."
"After all, Yuan Shang now has plenty of money and food, and most of the benefits from Yi Jing have been taken away by him."
"Jizhou has millions of dan of grain stored in it. It can mobilize tens of thousands of soldiers and horses at any time. If we move, it is impossible for him to stay still."
"Time is running out, so I decided to send troops immediately. The entire army will break out of camp early tomorrow morning at the latest, rush into the pass in the north of Montenegro within three days, dig deep trenches, build camps, and push into the hinterland of the Montenegro army step by step, squeezing their space for dispatching troops."
After hearing this, Guo Jia smiled and said: "It's really the style of a young master. The soldiers are noble and quick."
"We will not fight an unprepared battle, but we will not wait until we are fully prepared and miss opportunities."
"But since the young master has sealed the northern pass, the Black Mountain Army may still come out from other passes and harass our food routes, so we have to be on guard."
After hearing this, Yuan Xi nodded and said: "That's why I transported all the grain and grass to Beixin City, so that only one grain road was left."
"If they dare to come out to rob food, they will face Yan Rou's rangers."
After hearing this, Guo Jia smiled and said: "Since the young master has already made up his mind, Jia will inform all the armies to sort out their baggage first and wait for tomorrow."
Yuan Xi said at this time: "Didn't they ask them to prepare their troops at any time yesterday?"
"There is no need to wait. The roads can only accommodate a limited number of soldiers. The first army will set off immediately. Those who are unable to leave today will stay in the city to organize their baggage and gather the craftsmen, and then follow up."
Yuan Xi had a vague feeling that the Montenegrin Army was not easy to deal with. They had had several interactions with each other in the past two years, and he always felt that there were some aspects of the Montenegrin Army that were very inconsistent.
A sinister premonition emerged in his heart for no reason, and it was this inexplicable feeling that prompted him to decide to leave immediately.
As for Hanoi, he really couldn't wait for the news from Qu Yi and Chen Gui. He had done everything he needed to do. Even if he couldn't join forces with Lu Bu, he still wanted to take Montenegro.
While the situation is still unclear, the sooner we make a break with the Montenegrin Army, the less likely it is that changes will occur!
At this time, Zhang Yan and Yuan Xi, restricted by various factors, unanimously made the choice to fight as soon as possible. Both sides sent troops almost at the same time. As for when they would meet, it depended on the pace of both sides.
But with this step, Yuan Xi unintentionally took a slight advantage.
The passage from Beixincheng to the North Pass of Heishan is a flat road.
The internal terrain of Montenegro is complex, and the Montenegrin Army's march will undoubtedly be slower!
After receiving the news, the entire Beixin City suddenly became busy.
Xu You was lying on the couch, still hungover, and his head was still buzzing. When his subordinates came to report, he cleverly sat up and suddenly woke up from most of the alcohol.
He was shocked and confused. Yuan Xi had only been back for a day and was about to leave immediately. This move was too fast!
But then Xu You came to his senses. He quickly put on his wooden clogs and ran out. Yuan Xi had previously asked him to prepare a large number of saws, axes, pickaxes and other items. He had to count and deliver them immediately to prevent Yuan Xi from taking advantage of the situation!
It's okay to be greedy for people's property, but if there are any defects in these military artifacts, they will really be dealt with by military law!
Inside and outside Beixin City, things suddenly became lively. Some people came to see him off at the gate of the city, and they crowded together. As a result, the sergeant was delayed when he went out. A few sergeants came out and scolded him loudly, asking him to get out of the way.
Yuan Xi saw it on the top of the city and came down and said, "Talk to them nicely."
After hearing this, several chiefs quickly accepted the order, but they were quite disapproving of it. They were just stupid people watching the excitement and delaying the military. They had nothing to do. Many people on their side would die!
A peasant woman who had just been scolded bravely took two steps forward. A young eunuch saw her and became impatient. Her eyes widened and the peasant woman was so frightened that she took a step back and murmured: "I'm fine.
meaning."
She put her hand into her arms, and the chief immediately became nervous, but saw the peasant woman shaking her arms, taking out a few eggs, and handing them to the chief.
She smiled honestly and said, "My son died at the top of the city two years ago. He didn't even have enough to eat at that time. The city was not destroyed in the end, so it's considered that he did his best."
"To protect us now, we have to count on you military lords. I thought I still had some eggs at home, so I boiled them and brought them over. I hope you can fill your stomachs, win the battle, and come back alive."
Nash Chang stared blankly at the eggs stuffed into his hands, and his hands trembled when he thought of his mother who starved to death on the road.
Yuan Xi patted his shoulder and said, "It's my heart, so just accept it."
"As long as you remember that everyone is born from father and mother, that's enough."
The young man nodded sharply.
Inside Jicheng, Zhen Mi held Axiang in her arms and leaned lazily on the couch. Hua Tuo, who was opposite him, retracted his hand on Zhen Mi's wrist and said with a happy face, "Congratulations, madam."
The previous chapter was blocked after it was released, and the time of release is unknown.
It’s not easy to make a living, but I’m still looking up to you. I really didn’t write anything outrageous.
