Chapter 71 Cooperation between Wang Yu and Xuanyuan Huang
"In my opinion, we can use the power of the Zhenbei Army!" Xuanyuan Huang seemed to be thinking.
"The Zhenbei Army can lead its troops south and choose the opportunity to move!" Xuanyuan Huang continued.
"Zhenbei Army?"
"It's just that the Zhenbei Army may not be able to mobilize too many troops!" King Wei said with some confusion.
Huangfu Mingzhao did give the Zhenbei Army a harsh sentence last time, causing them heavy losses, so much so that the Zhenbei Army and them now stand on a united front.
However, after all, the Zhenbei Army had suffered heavy losses at this time, and had the important task of garrisoning northern Xinjiang. This time, the number of troops going south was limited. Therefore, Chu Xizhao established the three prefecture armies of Hedong, Hexi, and Shanyang on Shanyang Road.
Line of defense.
Although the combat effectiveness of these government troops is definitely not comparable to that of the Zhenbei Army, the Zhenbei Army has many iron cavalry and is good at field combat. It is relatively lacking in siegeing cities and plundering territory, and is not as good as Zhenxi and Zhennan.
Moreover, with the full strength of the Hedong, Hexi, and Shanyang armies, the strength of the Zhenbei Army is still higher than that of the Zhenbei Army dispatched this time. Therefore, the Zhenbei Army is still looking for opportunities.
If the Zhenbei Army is allowed to send a light cavalry to bypass the Fu army's defense line, if the conditions are in place, this may not be a problem!
However, it is foreseeable that the Zhenbei Army will not send too many troops.
First, if too many men are dispatched, the government army can take this opportunity to cut off their logistics. Without logistics, a force without logistics will lose its combat effectiveness no matter how strong it is.
Some people may say that it can be handed over to Hebei Province to ensure their logistics, but I am afraid that no general or prince will entrust his life to others.
In the final analysis, there are too many doubts about the Zhenbei Army's rebellion, and there is no trust between them for the time being. Under this situation, if anyone were in the position of the Zhenbei Army,
I'm afraid they are not willing to take this risk, especially when they have just been cheated!
Secondly, by controlling the number of people within a certain range, the traces of this unit can be better hidden. If more people are sent, the other party will not discover them unless they are blind.
This is not in the grassland. In the grassland, the land is vast and sparsely populated. It is indeed easier to hide one's traces if a large-scale cavalry attacks thousands of miles.
But in the Central Plains dynasty, population density is not the same thing. A village is likely to appear more than ten miles away. If a large-scale cavalry passes by, it is really unrealistic to hide its whereabouts.
And once the trap is exposed, if Chu Jingzhong is on guard, then the difficulty of catching Chu Jingzhong will definitely rise to another level.
Therefore, everyone was confident that they would persuade the Zhenbei Army to agree to this matter if they paid certain conditions, but they also knew that the number of troops sent by the other party would not be too large.
And what is the situation in Hebei Province now?
After the incident involving the Zhenbei Army, Chu Xizhao was forced to change his previous strategy, from being the first to deal with the main coalition forces to being the first to cut off the surrounding wings and then deal with millions of coalition forces.
Chu Xizhao stationed more than 500,000 troops in Youping and Yinshan. Where did the remaining troops of the imperial court go? They were sent by Chu Xizhao to deal with Hebei Dao and Zhao Changfeng first.
Now Hebei Province has 100,000 forbidden troops and 30,000 remaining Hebei Province troops, totaling 130,000 troops. If the Zhenbei Army only sends a few thousand troops, even if it hides behind and makes a surprise attack, it may not be possible.
achieve the final goal.
If you want to capture Chu Jingzhong in one fell swoop, if possible, it's best to get there in one go. Once you start taking action, your purpose will be revealed, and if you don't succeed the first time, the enemy will definitely be on guard and want to take action later.
It's even harder.
"Brother Wang Xian, I heard that your Majesty has an army called the Golden Fire Cavalry. I wonder if it is possible to send the Golden Fire Cavalry to Hebei!" Xuanyuan Huang asked again after thinking deeply.
Everyone also knew very well that the ten thousand golden fire cavalry were nominally Huangfu Mingze's troops, but in fact everyone knew whose manpower they were.
Meng Tian, the commander of the Golden Fire Cavalry, was from a standard Zhendong background!
Therefore, Xuanyuan Huang directly asked Wang Yu.
"The Golden Fire Cavalry can send three thousand troops secretly, and no one will notice it!" Wang Yu said after thinking for a moment.
It would not be a bad idea if a group of troops were temporarily disguised as the Golden Fire Cavalry, so that this part of the Golden Fire Cavalry could be temporarily used on the battlefield in Hebei Province.
However, as Wang Yu said, if there are more than 3,000 people, Wang Yu is not sure if he wants to be invisible and unnoticed.
In order to secretly mobilize the three thousand golden fire cavalry, Wang Yu not only had to find ways to hide it from the eyes and ears of Nanbei Yamen, but also had to find ways to deceive the people of Huangfu Mingze just in case.
On the contrary, the Zhendong Army side is the easiest to deal with!
With the changes taking place between the Zhendong Army and the Zhenbei Army, the Zhendong Army and the Zhennan Army are actually starting to get into a dilemma. The two sides are actually waiting to see which side the next battle will favor. After that, they
Only then can you make a choice!
The balance between the four towns has been maintained for hundreds of years. When this balance is broken, all four towns will be greatly affected, not just one of them.
"So, it's pretty much the same!" After some simple calculations, Xuanyuan Huang said thoughtfully.
What they need to do this time is not to take the opportunity to defeat the enemy troops in Hebei Road. Wang Yu and his team are quite happy to do this, but the others are not willing to do such a thing to help others!
What they need to do is to hold Chu Jingzhong in their hands. The purpose is different, and the process and means will naturally be different!
Now that the troops for the operation have been sorted out, the first thing to choose is who will be in charge of the operation!
After some discussion, it was finally decided that Wang Yu and Xuanyuan Huang would cooperate to complete this matter.
Hebei Road is Wang Yu's base camp. Wang Yu definitely can't trust others to go to his territory. Therefore, there is no way he can be left out of this matter.
And everyone was not worried about letting Wang Yu go alone. At least they had to send someone to watch Wang Yu to prevent Wang Yu from taking this opportunity to do more "unnecessary" things in Hebei Province.
While Wang Yu and the others were taking action by the river, the coalition forces here had to continue to confront Chu Xizhao, lest Chu Xizhao do anything wrong!
Therefore, everyone's unanimous desire is to get Chu Jingzhong into their hands as quickly as possible to help them open up the situation here as soon as possible.
Therefore, they were certainly not willing to give Wang Yu the opportunity to do "superfluous" things in Hebei Province.
