"The advantages of our army? Ziyi, don't you understand yet? In addition to the rangers who shield intelligence, our army's elite are concentrated in one place, and they are fighting on the inside. They also have the advantage in dispatching and maneuvering. Isn't this a condition for victory?
?”
After citing Xu Rong's battle example, Wang Yu did not give a detailed explanation. Intelligence warfare is a new concept, and it is better to explain it clearly. In terms of strategy, there is no need to explain it so carefully, so as not to limit the thinking mode of the generals.
.
The reason why the famous generals of this era are powerful and charming is that each of them has a unique style. This style may be exploited as a weakness, but it is also a way for them to exert their strength.
Therefore, there is no need to explain everything in detail, just point out the key points and let everyone think in their own way.
Wang Yu had good intentions, but Tai Shici was a guy who couldn't hide his secrets. Although he didn't ask questions at the time, when the battle situation took a new turn, he couldn't help it anymore. So, Wang Yu gave the above explanation.
"I understand this." Taishi Ci waved his hand and said bluntly: "But my lord, your arrangement is hard to understand."
"What don't you understand?"
In the history of the previous life, during the Battle of Luoyang, Dong Zhuo relied on his advantage in internal combat maneuverability and used various defeat strategies to defeat the enemies on three sides, buying time for the move of the capital.
In this dimension, although this goal was not achieved because of Wang Yu's existence, Xu Rong successively won victories on the southern front and the eastern front. His superior tactical command ability was certainly the main reason, but the advantages of internal combat and mobility
, also cannot be ignored.
On that day, Wang Yu's troops detoured from Xingyang on the eastern front to Luyang on the southern front, which took nearly a month; while Xu Rong's transfer from Liang County to Chenggao took less than half the time.
Therefore, both the besieging party and the besieged party have their own advantages and disadvantages. The besieging party has the advantage in strength, while the besieged party often takes the initiative. If they want to distinguish themselves, the two sides still have to compete at the strategic level.
.
If the besieging party's strategy is strong, the besieged party will suffer from the difficulty of attacking in separate attacks, and it will be difficult to take care of the beginning and the end; if not, the besieging party will find that the seemingly powerful siege on all sides is actually full of loopholes because the distance is too large.
They were far away, so they could only watch the friendly forces being defeated one by one, and they had no advantage in strength, but they couldn't make full use of it.
Taishi Ci is more famous for his bravery, but of course he doesn't understand these common sense in the art of war.
Holding the yellow horse in one hand, Taishi Ci analyzed seriously: "The enemies come from four directions. Youzhou Mu Liu Yu did not directly send troops, but only eroded the territory of General Gongsun to disperse our troops. The enemy forces along this route could only
Let General Gongsun take care of things by himself, we can’t go, and we can’t go.”
"Ziyi has made great progress recently. Those who are close to Zhu are red. The ancients are sincere and I can't deceive them." It was Jia Xu who interrupted.
Taishi Ci was a military commander, and Wang Yu also held himself to the standards of a military commander, so they all led horses on the march. Jia Xu was a civil servant. Although he did not have the enjoyment of riding in a car, he still had some privileges. He rode on a horse
The big blue and white mule weighed down the strong mule until it gasped for air.
It may not be a good idea to quickly go north and deal with Liu Yu first, but the problem is, if you rashly enter Gongsun Zan's territory, how to calculate the territory and loot gained?
The Qingzhou Army's trip was in vain? That doesn't make sense. Although no one said it explicitly, when Tian Kai aided Qingzhou, Wang Yu later took Pingyuan out as a thank you gift. This is a tacit understanding, but it cannot be ignored. Even if Wang Yu didn't
This idea also has to guard against misunderstandings within Youzhou. No matter how strong the alliance is, we are not a family, so we really can't be careless.
Gongsun Zan is already in embarrassment due to internal and external troubles. It is really unjustifiable for Wang Yu to go to Youzhou to divide the territory. Therefore, unless Gongsun Zan himself makes a request, the Qingzhou army will definitely not be able to rush northward.
In fact, it may not be useful to go there, because the situation in Youzhou is very troublesome. It is not as simple as two armies facing each other. It is as simple as speaking with bravery and swords. Adding the Qingzhou Army may not speed up the solution of the problem. The situation may become more complicated.
Taishi Ci's ability to say these words shows that he has a deep understanding of the mysteries involved, which is why Jia Xu came up with that compliment.
"The two princes in Yanzhou, individually, have more troops than our army, and they are at odds with each other. I am afraid that it will be difficult to achieve victory on either side in a hurry. If they cannot win quickly, they will wait for the reinforcements to arrive.
It is our army that is at a disadvantage."
Taishi Ci ignored Jia Xu. When dealing with old foxes, one must be aware of being exploited at any time. In this regard, Taishi Ci had a very profound lesson and painful experience. Although he relied on Wang Yu's respect, he did not suffer any big losses.
, but he is still very clear about the reason why Citron dies first.
He has now figured out how to deal with the old fox, which is not to talk to him, at least not in front of the lord. This can best avoid being used as a weapon by the other party.
"That's not necessarily true. That day, Cao Cao was defeated miserably by the Gushui River, but no princes came to rescue him. The Suanzao princes even used this as an excuse to disperse. Cao Cao and Liu Dai may not be so united.
.”
Taishi Ci ignored Jia Xu, but the fat man insisted on entangled him, making Taishi Ci's head as big as a bucket and frowning.
"The military advisor only saw one... Well, let's put it this way, today is different from the past. This time, Liu Dai and Cao Cao are not just responding to Yuan Shao and seeking fame. They really want to destroy our Qingzhou! If our army
Having gained the upper hand, they may not dare to move lightly, but now... Well, in short, this road is going to be fought, but it is very dangerous."
Because he had to choose his words carefully to avoid being caught by the old fox, Taishi Ci's words were stumbling, but the meaning was expressed very clearly.
Yes, this time is different from the war between the heroes. The two major princes in Yanzhou felt the pain of Wang Yu's threat. Even without Yuan Shao's call, they would probably still take the initiative to send troops.
With such enthusiasm, it is unrealistic to expect them to work completely without any effort. It will only lead to a disastrous defeat because they underestimate the enemy.
After Cao Cao crossed the river, he did not rush to advance. Instead, he calmly joined the Yuan army from Yangping and Cangting, arrived at Leping, and joined forces with the Lu Kuang brothers. Intelligence showed that during this period, he had been training his soldiers and rehearsing formations.
, prepare for the war.
The situation was urgent, and he was worried that Cao Cao would not be able to do his job, and he would give up the story. In addition, with Liu Dai's recommendation, Yuan Shao had to give Cao Cao certain benefits. Not only did he release the hostage Cao Pi, but he also ordered Lu Kuang and other Jizhou generals to obey Cao Cao.
's command.
Cao Cao led nearly 20,000 soldiers and horses across the river. Together with the Yuan army that met along the way, the number of troops reached more than 30,000! Moreover, these soldiers and horses completely obeyed his orders, rather than the ragtag group that did their own thing during the Battle of Luoyang.
Liu Dai's troops were about the same as Cao Cao's, about 30,000. There should be a gap in the level of commanders, but their equipment was superior. After looking at the prefectures and counties of the Han Dynasty, in terms of wealth and population, only Yanzhou could compete with Jizhou.
Compared.
Although Liu Dai did not completely control Yanzhou, he occupied wealthy areas. Coupled with his original foundation, how difficult was it to build a well-equipped army?
As if calculated, at the same time that Cao Cao was stationed in Leping, Liu Dai also moved north and stationed in Chiping.
Chiping, Leping, and Boping, where Wang Yu garrisoned, formed an isosceles triangle and faced each other from a distance. The distance between the Qingzhou Army and the two enemy armies was about the same, while the distance between the two enemy armies was closer. Yes.
Imagine what kind of disaster the battle would turn into if Wang Yu fought with one enemy army and another enemy army attacked from behind.
Wang Yu raised his eyebrows slightly and asked with a smile: "Ziyi seems to have other ideas?"
"I think it would be better to cut off one of his arms than to hurt his ten fingers!" Taishi Ci put his five fingers together like a knife and made a vicious downward gesture.
"Yuan Shao thought he could block our army with a partial force and calmly deal with Zhang Yan who threatened his retreat, but we just didn't let him do it! My lord might as well send a message to Zhang Yan, asking him to fight briefly and retreat in the direction of Ping'en; then send another message
Letter to General Gongsun and asked him to postpone his trip; at the same time, our army was bluffing in Boping, the main force stopped and marched westward, and finally..."
In recent times, everyone has put a lot of effort into the terrain of Jizhou. Taishi Ci did not need a map to fully explain his ideas.
"Surprise, gather the strength of the three families, and fight Yuan Shao's main force in the Ping'en area!"
Taishi Ci spoke faster and faster, and his eyes seemed to shine with light: "With the strength of the three families, Yuan Shao was unlucky to defeat Yuan Shao, Liu, and Cao were naturally frightened and would probably surrender without a fight. Even if they still resisted,
It’s not a big deal, without Yuan Shao as their backbone, they are just blocking the car.”
Wang Yu nodded, Tai Shici's suggestion was an amazing key to victory. Yuan Shao built a solid defense line on the eastern front, and with Cao, Liu, and Zhang Jiao to contain him, no matter how you think about it, it was foolproof.
Although the situation on Gongsun Zan's side was urgent, his men were all light cavalry with extremely high mobility. They could not afford to delay the long battle. Ten days and eight days would still be no problem. After Yuan Shao got his plan, he might not have thought that Gongsun Zan would come back.
As for Zhang Yan, it was impossible for him to fight Yuan Shao to the end. After being attacked, he would most likely resort to his best tricks and launch mobile operations. If Wang Yu proposed a plan, he would most likely cooperate.
In this way, when Yuan Shaoxing rushed to pursue Zhang Yan, he suddenly found that he was surrounded by three parties, and he could only end up in despair.
In the past, Wang Yu might have thought the same way. If the weak side wants to make a comeback, it has to take risks. A steady and steady strategy is only suitable for the side with stronger troops and supplies.
"Ziyi's idea is very reasonable and has certain feasibility, but..." Wang Yu smiled faintly and said: "It's too dangerous." (To be continued. Please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!)
