Chapter 164 How to break the situation (please subscribe)
I don't know how long it took, but there was silence in General Jingshangguan's Mansion, and you could hear a needle drop.
At a certain moment, Wu Zhan's knuckles tapped lightly on the table.
He glanced at the generals and said, "Everyone, tell me what you think."
"The two northwest roads must be recovered as soon as possible."
After setting the tone, the next step in the military battle is to see if the generals can come up with any valuable ideas.
The focus is on Xue Rengui, Cheng Yaojin, and even Chen Gong.
The generals present included Chen Gong, a counselor.
Undoubtedly, Huang Zhong, Yan Liang, Wen Chou, Zhou Tai, and Hua Xiong are all men who are good at martial arts. It is obviously unrealistic to expect them to come up with any suitable plan.
Xue Rengui served as a coach many times in his previous life and made outstanding achievements. It seems that he has a lot of say in the way of marching and fighting.
Cheng Yaojin must have a lot of clever ideas, and I wonder if he will have a chance to use them this time.
Needless to say, Chen Gong's skill as a counselor lies in the word "strategy".
"My lord, I think we can take a step-by-step approach."
"The enemy retreated, so we continued to use force to force them to retreat."
"Take back the two northwest roads step by step."
Xue Rengui thought for a while and said.
His method was very simple and clear. Since General Fierce Wolf was too timid and refused to attack the city, and even Cheng Yaojin had led his army out to provoke him, he did not dare to fight head-on.
Then simply press the army closer and force General Fierce Wolf to retreat.
Work step by step to regain the two lands in the northwest.
"It seems that this is a good idea."
Wu Zhan frowned slightly, if according to what Xue Rengui said, the ferocious wolf general retreated, and he could safely retake the northwest two roads, which would be really good.
If the Fierce Wolf General fights back, then defeat him head-on.
Cheng Yaojin frowned and did not choose to speak out.
For some reason, he always felt that there was something missing in Xue Rengui's plan.
However, for a while, he couldn't think of any better way.
Chen Gong said: "My lord, at present, we can only camp step by step and wait for the opportunity. The enemy troops retreat again and again, and the northwest two roads are easily accessible."
"If the enemy is fighting head-on, our army is looking for an opportunity to destroy them in one fell swoop."
He thought for a while and realized that there was no more reliable strategy than Xue Rengui's step-by-step strategy.
"Okay, let's arrange it like this."
"Tomorrow morning, I will force my army to force the fierce wolf general."
"Cheng Yaojin, I only leave you 20,000 spearmen to guard Jingshang Pass, what do you think?"
Wu Zhan then ordered Cheng Yaojin again.
Although, he has decided to personally lead an army to deal with General Fierce Wolf.
However, the huge Jingshan Pass cannot be left unguarded.
What if the enemy troops raid Jingshang Pass?
Then wouldn't martial warfare become a turtle in a urn locked in the two northwest lanes by the enemy?
Therefore, after much deliberation, Wu Zhan decided to let Cheng Yaojin stay behind.
He is the most suitable candidate, bar none.
"promise."
Cheng Yaojin agreed without hesitation.
However, just as Cheng Yaojin finished speaking.
Chen Gong spoke up: "Lord, I suddenly thought of a way to break the situation that is not a break."
"Isn't there a way to break the situation?"
When Wu Zhan heard this, he looked at Chen Gong with some confusion.
Chen Gong said: "My lord, if you deliberately leave only a few troops to guard Jingshang Pass, will General Fierce Wolf have the idea to raid Jingshang Pass?"
"You mean, let me pretend to be lax, expose a flaw to General Fierce Wolf, and seduce him into taking the bait?"
Wu Zhan nodded and immediately understood Chen Gong's intention.
This plan is indeed a way to break the game, but it can only be regarded as a casual move at most.
Whether it succeeds or not depends on whether General Fierce Wolf is fooled.
"That's right."
After Chen Gong responded, Wu Zhan's eyes moved slightly, and he made a decision. He was listening to his order: "Hua Xiong obeys the order."
"The end will be here."
Hua Xiong quickly knelt down on one knee and listened respectfully to the order.
"Hua Xiong, listen, I will give you 10,000 Wu family troops to guard Jingshang Pass."
"promise."
Hua Xiong was a little confused. The important task of guarding Jingshang Pass just now was still shouldered by Cheng Yaojin. How come it was him in the blink of an eye?
Fortunately, he didn't mean to ask any more questions and just followed the order without thinking.
"Cheng Yaojin, you lead 20,000 spearmen and advance with my army with great fanfare."
"Huang Zhong, you lead an army of 120,000 divine archers and are secretly lurking in Jingshang Pass."
"Yan Liang and Wen Chou, you two each lead 50,000 Wu family troops and hide your troops in the barren mountains ten miles outside the west gate of Jingshang Pass. Once the enemy forces attack Jingshang Pass, you two must stop the enemy troops immediately.
The way back.”
After thinking about it, after giving orders to Hua Xiong, Wu Zhan gave orders one after another.
Whether this plan succeeds or fails depends entirely on God's will.
The military battle is just a slight layout.
If you can gain something, that would be the best.
There is no gain, and military warfare can ensure the security of the rear.
"promise."
Cheng Yaojin, Huang Zhong, Yan Liang and Wen Chou took orders one after another.
Early the next morning.
Wu Zhan personally led the army and stepped out of Jingshang Pass.
In addition to the 10,000 Wu family troops who stayed at Jingshang Pass, the secretly deployed 120,000 sharpshooting troops, and the 100,000 Wu family troops led by Yan Liang and Wen Chou.
During this military battle, there were 220,000 spearmen and 910,000 Wu family troops, totaling 1.13 million troops, which can be described as a huge force.
Xue Rengui, Cheng Yaojin, Chen Gong, and Zhou Tai accompanied the military battle and looked particularly vigilant.
I'm afraid someone might launch a surprise attack.
...
It is twenty miles outside Jingshang Pass.
The place where the ferocious wolf general sets his camp.
In the main tent, General Fierce Wolf sat domineeringly on the main seat.
On the left and right sides, a group of warriors separated.
Takumu won his trust and stood beside him.
During this period, Takumu stole the show.
Not only was it suggested that he withdraw his troops, it would save him from serious battle losses.
Even now, I feel that I have benefited a lot from it.
He also helped him revise the memorial to King Huang.
This memorial not only did not make King Huang angry, but actually made him worry about the situation of General Ferocious Wolf.
In his reply, he showed great concern for General Fierce Wolf.
I have no intention of holding General Fierce Wolf accountable at all.
They even sent several strong reinforcements to General Fierce Wolf to help General Fierce Wolf defeat the enemy.
"Everyone."
"I believe you all should have received the news that Wu Zhan has arrived personally with his army."
"In the first battle of Jubeicheng, we were surrounded on all sides by force and annihilated the millions of cavalry of the Royal Court of the Northern Desert."
"Now, it's our turn to fight Wu Zhan. Is there anything you want to say?"
His eyes swept across the generals, and the eyes of the ferocious wolf general were fierce and powerful.
He puts the facts on the table.
Just to see the reaction of the generals.
If he loses the will to fight, he will have to consider his retreat in advance.
If all the generals are eager to fight, he may consider a big fight.
Before this battle, he had discussed it privately with Takumu.
Focusing on stability, in a word, don't seek merit, but seek no faults.
