Chapter 1024 The fisherman's wife is not an air force
General Guan may not be as politically sensitive as Zhang Xiaosi.
In terms of overall planning, he can't compare to Feng.
But she undoubtedly has extremely amazing battlefield acumen.
Maybe it's a hereditary talent, or maybe it's a potential that was forced out in the life-and-death situation of Jingzhou's great changes.
Just from Guo Huai's slightly unusual retreat, we can infer from clues that there may have been changes in Guanzhong.
Regardless of whether this judgment is correct or not, it can be regarded as a warning after all.
According to Guan Ji's judgment, Sima Yi is likely to fall in Hedong, and at the latest when the ferry is lost, he will begin to fully shrink the front.
Abandon the west of Chang'an, take all the Wei troops in the pass back to Chang'an to Tongguan, and set up defenses along the Wei River.
In this case, he would have enough troops to rely on Chang'an City and Tongguan to resist the Prime Minister in the west and resist the Liangzhou Army in the east.
At the same time, it can also protect the retreat route to Wuguan in the south.
If I remember correctly, the General Staff Department also deduced such a situation.
This is not fanciful, but very feasible.
Because Chang'an City is now a hedgehog.
Over the years, Sima Yi set up countless deep ditch barriers with Chang'an City as the center and within a dozen miles around.
It shows that he indeed has a plan to defend Chang'an.
Stone cannons are indeed powerful when attacking a city, but the city wall must be within its range.
Even if there are enough stones, stone cannons will cause huge damage to the barrier with a deep trench of more than ten miles.
It is impossible to bulldoze it and invade the camp that the opponent has worked so hard to build without paying a price.
Not to mention trenches and the like, stone cannons have no way to deal with them, and in the end the soldiers have to risk their lives to fill them.
The most troublesome thing is the hidden soldier cave that cannot be seen with the naked eye.
The Tibetan Soldier Cave can not only protect against arrow feathers, but also against stone cannons.
Once the attacker stops firing arrows and starts attacking, the unharmed defender soldiers in the cave will suddenly appear to resist.
The Meat Grinder of Verdun in later generations was a contest between the use of large numbers of artillery for attack and the use of deep ditches and trenches for defense in depth.
Germany's defeat in this battle marked the decline of its military offensive capabilities from its peak, and the war initiative began to shift to its opponents.
It would be too whimsical for Shi Pao to try to do something that artillery can't do.
Of course, the Wei army certainly could not meet the organizational capabilities of later modern armies. Whether it had such civil engineering capabilities is also a question.
But showing leniency to the enemy is a principle of war.
What's more, the opponent is Sima Yi.
Even if Chang'an could not stop the Han in the end, as long as it delayed it for a year and a half and caused the Han army to pay huge casualties, it would be enough to keep the Wei state alive for several more years.
If with good luck, General Guan's imaginary wait-and-see situation turns around, then won't Wei's national destiny be prosperous?
The only difference from the staff deduction was that during Guan Ji's evacuation from Guo Huai, she suspected that Sima Yi might mobilize the Wei troops on the front line of Wancheng and Jingzhou to enter Guanzhong through Wuguan.
Then he set up an ambush with heavy troops south of Luoshui, preparing to meet him.
This is a treasure lady.
Governor Feng tapped the desk table gently with his knuckles.
This is a manifestation of his thinking about the problem.
Governor Feng didn't care about fighting or anything.
Because he never thought about crossing the river from the beginning.
On the contrary, if Sima Yi really mobilized part of the Wei army from Wancheng and Jingzhou to enter Guanzhong, as his superiors expected, there would be a lot to say.
Part of the Wei army on the front line in Jingzhou has been transferred away, so what is the Wu army in the south doing?
Just watch them leave?
In other words, why did the Wu army in Jingzhou watch helplessly as the Wei army in the north transferred part of it and remained indifferent?
Perhaps General Guan had personal emotional factors in his judgment. After all, the incident in Jingzhou was a knot in her mind that she would never be able to untie in her life.
But considering that the Wu invaders...well, it was the State of Wu, after all, given the criminal record committed by the State of Wu, this possibility is not non-existent.
And the possibility is probably not low.
After all, Han and Wei have been fighting in Guanzhong for more than half a year. No matter how slow the news from Wu is, we should be able to get some news about this battle.
Not to mention that high-level interactions between Han and Wu are now very frequent.
The Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty will definitely report the situation of the battle ahead to the Emperor of the Han Dynasty.
And the little fat emperor will definitely write a letter to Sun Shiwan.
Of course, it's definitely not to show off, but to exchange information.
What kind of army is progressing smoothly, what kind of thieves are running away...
Although Governor Feng could not see the whole situation of the battle now, the Wei State was at a loss of ground and showed weakness after losing the heavy commandery in Hedong.
It is easy to deduce that the Wei army must be in a dilemma in Guanzhong, thinking about their head rather than their back.
There is no reason why the Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty could not see things that even the governor Feng could see.
As long as Sima Yi reacts slightly abnormally, Zhuge Liang should be able to guess what happened to the east.
What's more, Wu Guo stood as a third party and could understand the overall war situation better than the Han Dynasty based on the information obtained from Han and Wei.
Therefore, Wu State can easily deduce that in this battle, the Han Dynasty is very likely to capture Guanzhong and Bingzhou and Hedong in one fell swoop.
As long as we manage it carefully in the future, we can become the strongest company in the Three Kingdoms.
I might be a little envious if someone I have never met wins the lottery.
Those who are in a better state of mind not only feel calm inside, but even want to laugh a little.
But Qing Diaosi, who went to the Internet cafe with me every day, bought a lottery ticket on the way to the Internet cafe with me.
Then he told me the next day that he had won several million and that he would cover all the internet bills for the next month.
Do you think I would be grateful?
No, jealousy will only distort my mentality and change it beyond recognition!
Seeing Feng Junhou's face changing from clear to dark, Han Long couldn't help but ask:
"Your Majesty, General Guan is in Hexi, but what difficulties have he encountered?"
"No." Governor Feng shook his head and smiled calmly, "It's not a difficult task, it's just that General Guan is a little impatient."
Since you suspect Sima Yi to be deceitful, then just don't fight him.
What does his desire to attack Junhou Feng have to do with Governor Feng's desire to fish?
However, since General Guan on the front line was so anxious to find out the news about Guanzhong, he must have her reasons, and he just followed her wishes.
At this point, Governor Feng still believed in General Guan.
Hearing what Feng Jishi said, Han Long finally let go of his worries:
"Since the Lord asked me to take this trip, I naturally have nothing to say, but this is the end of the matter in Hedong?"
Governor Feng picked up a piece of fish, put it in his mouth, chewed it, and after swallowing it, he said:
"Of course I'm not letting it go like this. I'm just ignoring them for the time being. I'll still have to settle accounts with them later."
Aristocratic families are able to control places, except for the complicated and intricate network of relationships between them.
Privately, he even supports countless retainers.
These clan members are their private armed forces.
During the Gaoping Ling Incident, the three thousand disciples that Sima Yi relied on were the tribes that he secretly cultivated in private.
And many of these so-called hangers-on are knights attached to wealthy families.
Why are the knight-errants in places like Liangzhou, Bingzhou, and Youzhou famous?
In addition to being on the border, wars occur all year round, so everyone is accustomed to bloodshed, so they dare to fight and fight.
Another reason that is often overlooked is that these places are too poor compared to the Central Plains.
The local wealthy families did not have enough strength to take them all under their sect.
Try changing to Zhongyuan?
Sima Yi could secretly recruit three thousand disciples by himself, and he was still a dead soldier.
One can imagine how many private armed forces are hidden in the Central Plains where aristocratic families are densely populated.
What Han Long is doing now is, in the name of the Wulin Alliance, with one hand of loyalty as the leader and the other hand of the golden ticket as a way to persuade and instigate those Hedong rangers who work for the wealthy families to rebel.
The effect is quite obvious.
According to Han Long, many wanderers who had gone astray cried bitterly and expressed their willingness to change their minds, start a new life, and contribute to the people of the world.
How to get out?
Joining the rebel army, making some of the former boss's ulterior secrets known to the world, etc., are all manifestations of hard work.
Of course, there are also many diehards who are unrepentant.
After all, Hedong is the home base of aristocratic families, and the aristocratic families must have enough business here.
"Those knight-errants who are willing to serve as hawks and dogs for wealthy families and harm the common people violate the principles of chivalry and are evil. As a well-known and upright sect in the martial arts world, the Wulin Alliance must not stand against them."
Governor Feng said sternly, "As the saying goes, good and evil are not mutually exclusive. It is the duty of the Wulin Alliance to clean up the scum of the rangers and promote the way of chivalry."
"This must be done not only now, but also in the future, until the day the Ranger scum disappears."
As the saying goes, "Confucianism disrupts the law with literature, and chivalry violates prohibitions with force."
As a dynamic group in society and an unstable factor in the eyes of the government, the Youxiaer group has never disappeared from the moment it appeared.
Especially the knight-errants from the Han Dynasty are the most famous.
Even the low-key general Wei Qing personally came forward to intercede for the famous hero Guo Xie in front of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, which shows the great influence.
Therefore, Governor Feng did not want to make this group disappear. All he had to do was to try his best to guide them to the right path.
We do not expect to be able to be a "great chivalrous person who serves the country and the people", but we hope that "if there is injustice in the world, some people will complain about it".
If one day they can take this as their belief, it will be much better than "a chivalrous person using force to break the law."
When Han Long heard what Feng Jishi said, he immediately stood up with excitement, clasped his fists and said:
"The knights in the world are lucky enough to meet Feng Langjun. Only then will they know what chivalry means. Who would dare to call himself a knight if he doesn't know Feng Langjun?"
"Your Majesty, please rest assured. The Martial Arts Alliance will definitely fight against those scoundrels who practice chivalry and will live up to your trust!"
"Cough cough cough..."
Governor Feng suddenly coughed, and he didn't know if a fish bone was stuck in his throat.
"Old Han's words are serious. Sit down, please sit down. With Old Han's words, I feel relieved about the Wulin Alliance."
Seeing Han Long sit down contentedly, as if his life was complete, Feng Governor felt a little guilty.
There were no rivers and lakes in this world, but later, I created one...
In the future, this world is destined to not be peaceful!
Governor Feng sighed a little in his heart.
He looked at Han Long again:
"When Mr. Han goes to General Guan this time, he may need to sneak behind the thieves and contact the Guanzhong martyrs. Please be more careful then."
Han Long laughed:
"Don't worry, Junhou. I have been doing this for more than a day or two. I am familiar with Guanzhong, and I am much more familiar with it than Hedong."
"Always bring more experts from the Wulin League with you. With more people, things will be easier to do."
With the Wulin Alliance, you have to make use of it.
Most of the knight-errants are people who value righteousness. They care less about life and death than valuing loyalty. They are willing to die for their close friends, and even the training process of dying warriors is omitted.
I believe that Han Long knows them well and should be able to select suitable candidates.
"It's just what the prince said."
Han Long had just set out, and General Guan, who was stationed in Xia Yang City, decided to wait for an opportunity to attack even though he knew that Sima Yi might have an ambush.
As a woman who is a fisherman, seeing such a big bait passing by, the Air Force is not her principle.
If you want to know your opponent's intentions, relying solely on spies is too passive.
The Liangzhou Army went on a long expedition, and more importantly, his Alang was still on the other side, so General Guan must be responsible for their safety.
It may be a good way to alert the enemy.
"General Yang."
"The end will be here."
Yang Wanwan responded loudly and stood up.
"I will give you three thousand fine cavalry, one man and two cavalry, to catch up with Guo Huai, hang him up, and wait for the opportunity to attack. We will never let him retreat to the south safely."
"promise!"
"Remember, don't be greedy for credit. If you see the opportunity, go ahead. If there is no chance, just follow him from a distance and hold him back!"
General Guan stared at him and said in a serious tone, "An army of thieves may appear ahead at any time. If something goes wrong, turn around and leave immediately."
Yang Wanwan nodded, cupped his fists and said:
"The general understands that the general wants to lead the cavalry to harass the thieves and make them restless."
General Guan nodded with satisfaction.
With the elite Liangzhou army, she does not need to have outstanding generals, but she must strictly follow military orders.
Just like a certain Erha, even if it jumps again, it doesn't dare to disobey the slightest military order...
General Guan's eyes fell on Zhao Guang.
Zhao Guang immediately cheered up and puffed up his chest.
Sure enough, General Guan continued to give instructions:
"General Zhao."
"The end is here!"
Zhao Guangda was overjoyed and quickly responded loudly.
"You lead the armored battalion and follow General Yang for ten miles. You must not cross the front. Unless General Yang is in danger, you must not attack without permission."
General Guan stared at him sternly: "Remember my words, if you don't obey a word, you will be punished by military law!"
He is unreliable in other areas, but in terms of leading the team, Zhao Guang has never disappointed anyone.
He said quickly:
"You will eventually understand!"
He was the one who personally conducted the sand table deduction with General Guan, so he naturally knew the possible traps in the south, so he did not dare to be careless in the slightest.
"You two go down and prepare immediately, and set off when you are ready."
"promise!"
The Liangzhou army, which had rested and regained its strength, rose up from camp with six thousand cavalry troops, thrust diagonally into the southwest, and rumbled away.
When he learned that General Guan had sent out all his main forces and left less than 4,000 men to guard Xiayang City, Governor Feng of Hedong was so frightened that he trembled on the spot.
"You know that Sima Yi may be deceitful, but you still do this, how can you be so aggressive!"
he murmured.
Governor Feng was shocked by General Guan's actions, and Guo Huai was even more surprised.
Guo Huai knew that he might be traced by thieves, but he never thought that he would already fall into the hands of General Guan just after he left Qiaoshan.
Because he had some psychological shadow towards Feng Thief, Guo Huai was in a hurry when he evacuated Qiaoshan.
So when he came down from Qiaoshan, Guo Huai had to rest for a day in Suyi and prepare his camp.
After all, thieves might appear from behind at any time during the rest of the journey.
Based on Guo Huai's understanding of Feng Thief, he believed that Feng Thief would always appear in places where he shouldn't be at certain moments.
But he didn't expect that the thief would come so quickly. As soon as he crossed Baishui, the thief was already chasing him along the Heshui River, the next tributary of Luoshui River.
When he led the army across Heshui, spies urgently reported:
"General, a large number of Shu captive scouts were found ten miles east!"
Guo Huai's heart suddenly thumped.
Where there are a large number of scouts, it means there is a large army.
I knew that Thief Feng would always appear in places he shouldn't!
"Why are the Shu captives there? How did they come so fast?"
