"Let me ask you, what is going on?" As soon as the military meeting ended, Lu Bu came over angrily. Wang Yu knew from the look on his face that his long-term patience had pushed him to the edge of explosion.
.
"My father-in-law's army has strong combat power. Of course, good steel must be used on the blade. My son-in-law has not yet decided where to place it." Wang Yu did not beat around the bush and answered straightforwardly.
The reason why he did not tell the Puyang Army in public was not to keep it secret, but because he was afraid that if he told it in public, there would be no room for change and it would create a rift between the two families.
Lu Bu's anger calmed down a little, and he looked at Wang Yu coldly, his voice slightly cold: "Then tell me what regulations you have. Don't tell me. You haven't thought about this problem yet, right?"
"Of course not, my father-in-law, please come and see me." Wang Yu did not feel dissatisfied, walked to the sand table, pointed and said: "The Xiliang Army is said to be one million, but the actual number is more than 300,000. It can be said that there are many soldiers and generals, and the number of people is huge."
There are many powerful forces, but Bingzhou is blocked by the Luliang Mountains to the west and the Taihang Mountains to the south. The mountains and rivers inside and outside form a unified system, and there are only a few places for the army to march..."
In the early and late Eastern Han Dynasty, the territory changed greatly. The initial Bingzhou territory included most of the Hetao in the west and all the way to the west foot of Taihang Mountain in the east. In terms of area alone, it was almost the largest state in the empire.
But during the Huan Ling era, the territory of Bingzhou and Hetao had long existed in name only, leaving only the three counties of Taiyuan, Yanmen, and Shangdang, and a small half of Xihe County. Gao Gan and Yuan Tan actually controlled even less.
The statement that the Xiliang army invaded Bingzhou refers to the original Bingzhou, which was far away from Yuan's jurisdiction and was actually controlled by the Han army. If the Qingzhou army was fast enough, it would have a good chance of fending off the enemy.
"I plan to set up a defensive line here to prevent the Xiliang army from breaking into the hinterland of Bingzhou and deploying its troops."
"Zishi, Wuxian, and Pingtao are the three cities of each other?" Lu Bu looked at it and nodded thoughtfully.
The two cities of Zishi and Pingtao are both located on the Fenshui River, while Wu County is built in the south of Zhaoyu Zen, adjacent to the lake. The three cities just form a triangle, tightly guarding the southeast gate of Taiyuan, and they can not only support each other
, and can also maintain close contact through waterways.
No matter how many soldiers and horses the Xiliang army has, it is impossible to cross the Luliang Mountains to attack. They must also follow the rules of marching by water. As long as this line of defense is established, the Xiliang army can be blocked from Bingzhou.
Lu Bu thought for a while and then raised a question: "Xu Yuanzhi has long been famous, and Xu Gongming is the lieutenant general of the Qingzhou Army. The two of them lead 50,000 elite troops, which is enough to stop the rabble of Xiliang. But what does this western front have to do with a certain person?"
Related?"
"Defense alone is not a long-term solution. Cao Mengde is no ordinary person, and my son-in-law does not dare to hope that he can establish a victory in the Central Plains in a short period of time. After all, the Xiliang army has many soldiers and is familiar with the terrain in the Hetao area. It is difficult to guarantee that they will not bypass it.
The road came from the Dingxiang area. Although Yanmen has high-ranking officials, it has been newly established and may not be willing to defend it with all its strength. If there is an emergency..."
Those who have been attacking Hetao are the Huns and Qiang people. Ma Teng and Han Sui are veteran generals who have been fighting for many years. They are well versed in Tao strategy. If the Zishi-Wuxian defense line is frustrated, it is difficult to find another way. With the Qiang people against
Knowing the Hetao area, and then joining forces with the Xiongnu, it is very possible to launch a two-sided attack on Taiyuan from the north and the south.
"My son-in-law wants to ask my father-in-law to lead his troops out of Yanmen, herd horses in the clouds, and the old hometown of Wuyuan, clean up the old rivers and mountains, and form a north-south response to the Taiyuan troops and horses, and attack the Xiliang troops and horses from a flank!" Wang Yu spoke solemnly, and his eyes were shining brightly.
Flashing, "This battle cannot be successful unless my father-in-law takes action. I hope my father-in-law will not refuse!"
"Wuyuan..." Lu Bu looked at the edge of the sand table and whispered the name that once haunted him. He seemed to be crazy for a moment. Lu Bu's hometown is in Wuyuan, Bingzhou, but it has long been a
The paradise of foreigners was an abandoned territory, and Lu Bu had not been back for many years. Chinese people have a strong sense of country, so how could Lu Bu be immune to it?
It has to be said that Wang Yu's plan scratched his itch, and it was also very feasible.
The Han army abandoned Yunzhong, Wuyuan, Dingxiang and other northern counties in the past twenty or thirty years. There were still many Han people in the area who formed strongholds to defend themselves. Lu Bu first became famous in his hometown of Wuyuan, in the border area.
His reputation was quite resounding. He held high the banner of regaining his homeland and led his troops out of the fortress. He easily gained the recognition of the remaining Han people and mobilized a large number of people.
The remaining Han people are all tough people. With the equipment provided by the Qingzhou Army, they will definitely be able to quickly form combat effectiveness, and the Puyang Army's combat effectiveness will be greatly increased immediately.
When the Xiliang army was in full swing in front of the Zishi-Wuxian defense line, more than ten thousand tigers and wolves came rushing along the river, attacking fiercely from both sides. No matter how outnumbered they were, no matter how brave the Ma family generals were.
, how can you resist it?
Maybe, the Western Front will win the battle earlier than the Central Plains battlefield.
If there are loopholes in this plan, it is mainly focused on Lu Bu's partial division. There are doubts about whether it can complete the maneuver, whether it can stand firm in Wuyuan and Yunzhong, and whether it can turn into a fierce attack after standing firm, and whether it can be effective.
In addition, Lu Bu was fighting left and right in the Central Plains, but he was always unable to find his place. The main reason was not that the generals were not brave and the soldiers were not strong. The key was that one of the border troops in Bingzhou died. Lu Bu was not very good at training new troops, and he had no idea about government affairs.
, so up to now, the military strength has not been strengthened, but has been weakened.
This time when his troops leave Yanmen, it can be said that the dragon returns to the sea and the tiger enters the forest. Once he or his subordinates have different intentions, it will be a problem. At this point, Wang Yu seems to be very confident and not at all
Lu Bu was also slightly moved by setting up a bond condition.
However, after thinking for a long time, when Lu Bu raised his head again and Wang Yu saw the calm expression on his face, what came out of his mouth was a firm refusal: "I won't go to Bingzhou!"
"As long as my father-in-law agrees... Hey, why is this?" Wang Yu didn't react and looked at Lu Bu with dumbfounded eyes.
This plan is almost tailor-made for Lu Bu. With the honor of returning home in fine clothes and the extraordinary feat of regaining his homeland, it is also very challenging to attack the enemy's side after traveling thousands of miles. Even if he wants to preserve his strength, it will be very difficult.
But staying where you are, not rushing south, and waiting for the winner to be decided on the battlefield in the Central Plains before deciding on your move, should be considered a comprehensive plan.
As a result, he was rejected? This is really...
Wang Yu didn't know what to say.
Lu Bu said in a deep voice: "The ones who invaded Wuyuan were the Xianbei people in Yunzhong, and the Qiang and Xiongnu invaded Hetao. Now Xianbei has been hit hard repeatedly, and even the royal tents are fleeing north in panic. In Yunzhong, Wuyuan is still alive.
How much effort should I put in? I led the crowd out of Yanmen, but it was just to pick up the bargains... I am not old yet, and I am not yet old enough to take advantage of the benefits, so I will definitely not go to Bingzhou!"
Wang Yu and Jia Xu looked at each other and found that even the old fox's eyes were a little dull. It was obvious that they had not counted this part, which showed how difficult Lu Bu's thoughts were to guess.
"But……"
"I am in Puyang and I am not going anywhere!" Lu Bu interrupted Wang Yu and said stubbornly: "Pengju, you don't have to worry. Since I am in Puyang, I will naturally follow your orders. No matter how you direct and deploy, I will
He will not interfere. Then Cao Mengde regards someone as a chess piece and uses cunning calculations to plot against someone. How can he not avenge him? This battle will help him understand the cause and effect!"
"I see..." Wang Yu smacked his mouth, feeling quite helpless. At this point, it would be useless to try to persuade him. Think about it, if he and Lu Bu had not fought two or three times, how much would he have won the other party?
With his approval, this covenant may be a mirror image. My father-in-law is really not big-hearted and holds a grudge too much.
Originally, Wang Yu had a plan to discuss with Lu Bu and let him lead troops into Hanoi, so that he could not only support the Shangdang at any time, but also deploy troops in Mengjin and Heyang, just like when the heroes attacked Dong, threatening Cao Cao's flanks and letting him
Unable to concentrate on fighting the enemy.
But looking at it now, Lu Bu's obsession is too strong, and it may be difficult to control the scale. If not, he may go deep alone and be defeated one by one. Therefore, Wang Yu simply stopped mentioning it, thinking that since Lu Bu stayed in Puyang,
He also promised that he would obey orders. Can he transfer some troops from the Yanzhou battlefield to Hanoi or Bingzhou?
Seeing that Wang Yu was deep in thought, Lu Bu also felt that as an elder, he had created a problem for the younger generation. He had a slightly frightened look on his face and couldn't sit still for a while, so he got up and left on the pretext of going to see his daughter.
Wang Yu couldn't persuade him to stay, so he let him go. He turned around and smiled bitterly at Jia Xu: "Wen He, this can be regarded as man's inferiority to God, right?"
"Marquis Wen has a strong temperament, and there is nothing we can do about it." Jia Xu shrugged, but didn't care much: "The key is how to adjust next."
"How to adjust?" Wang Yu pondered: "Maybe we can divide the troops..."
"How to divide the troops?"
"The Puyang Army currently has a total of more than 4,000 light cavalry, all of whom are veterans of the border army. Although the more than a thousand soldiers and horses trapped in the camp are infantry, they can be used as light cavalry. In this case, I think that perhaps Zilong's Gale can be used
The cavalry is replaced... Anyway, Zilong is more experienced in going out to the fortress, so he can ask his father-in-law for a guide, or simply ask Wen Yuan to lead the army..."
"Inappropriate." Jia Xu did not agree, but pointed out the omissions in Wang Yu's plan: "There are examples of senior cadres and others. If the Puyang army marches out of Yanmen, it will not attract too much attention.
, maybe it can be used as a surprise weapon. Zilong’s reputation is too great, and it is impossible for Eight Thousand Gales to maneuver in a large area, and it is impossible to hide it from the enemy. There is no guarantee that it will not attract the attention of Ma Teng and Han Sui.”
"If the Xiliang army is facing a powerful enemy and divides its troops to move northward, wouldn't it open up a new main battlefield? Although Zilong is brave, the Xiliang army is well prepared and may not be able to win quickly. Instead, Xiliang will let
The army took advantage of its strength and pinned the Gale Cavalry in Bingzhou. Moreover, the Puyang Army's combat strength may not be inferior to that of our Qingqi Army, but in terms of coordination, I'm afraid..."
Wang Yu nodded obediently, then frowned tightly: "What Wen He said is that this is going to be troublesome."
"My lord, today is your happy day, why don't you keep your wife and guests waiting for too long? Since Marquis Wen insists on this, why don't we follow the trend and concentrate our efforts on making a breakthrough on the Yanzhou battlefield?" Jia Xu reminded him and tried to
Share Wang Yu's worries.
"That's all it can do." Wang Yu sighed.
If possible, he still hopes to make breakthroughs on other battlefields first, and the one with the greatest hope is naturally the Western Front. Cao Cao's difficulty lies not in the size of his troops, but in his resilience. It is difficult to kill him at once. This is history. Countless battles have proven this.
However, the current situation is like this, so we can only give it a try. (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!)
