Governor please stay

"To King Wu, at the end of the general's order, the secret letter will be delivered to His Highness in person before returning to the army. The secret letter is here."

Under the light of the fire, Xu Du, who led a group of Qingqi from a long distance from Changshe City, Yingchuan County in the south, respectfully handed over the sealed bamboo tube to Liu Yishou.

Don't read the letter, just read Xu Du's words and his attitude, it is enough to get a lot of useful information.

"What did General Yu say?"

Liu Yishou asked with a blank expression, not in a hurry to open the letter.

Yu Jin and Duguxin used a pincer attack this time, and the starting point of the supply was the border, and the process of deploying troops was very smooth.

Although the rapid progress of the current battle situation is because Li Yuanzhong and Feng Longzhi fled away seeing the bad situation, but even if they don't escape, there will be no surprises in the outcome of the battle.

The reason is very simple and clear. Yu Jin and Duguxin attacked Wei's "bulge" from different directions. The front line was short, and the troops were very sharp, so they didn't worry about logistics.

In the end, the reason why the combined forces were able to achieve great success was actually to eat up Liu Yishou's strategic gains from conquering Xuanhu last time and capturing Nanyang last time.

This military exploit could have been obtained at any time, but Liu Yishou kept pretending not to see it, and did not use troops against the Wei State until now.

This debt has been "on hold" and has not been recovered, just waiting for today.These are all Liu Yishou's early plans, and have nothing to do with Yu Jin and Dugu Xin's bravery and skill in fighting.

So whether it is Yu Jin, Dugu Xin, or even their generals, in fact, they have been a little uneasy recently, and they dare not show merit to Liu Yi.

These people are very confident, without Liu Yishou's early game, they would not get anything now.

However, Li Yuanzhong and others gave up face and risked being punished by fleeing without a fight, avoiding the fate of being encircled and suppressed by the Liang army.

Sending someone to deliver the letter was also because Yu Jin was a little worried that Liu Yishou would underestimate the enemy and make rash advances, resulting in the failure of his success.

After taking apart the bamboo tube, Liu Yishou looked at the ten lines at a glance, then fell into deep thought and did not speak.This move scared Xu Du beside him, and he didn't know how to put his hands and feet.

Yu Jin put forward a suggestion in the letter, which is to change the previously planned strategy, and then let the Dugu Xinbu storm the Hulao Pass, and he himself led his troops to attract the defenders of Xingyang from the front, and then Liu Yishou made a surprise attack from the west to block the way to the north of Xingyang. , Occupy Guandu.

After the three armies were in place, Xingyang had become a desperate situation. No matter how many Wei troops came there, they would not respond every day, and the land would not work.

In the end, the Liang army encircled Xingyang from three routes. At that time, Gao Huan’s army would have to kneel and talk to Liu Yishou when Han Xin came. This wave of operations can be said to have brought Liang Jun’s geographical advantages to the limit!
This plan can't be said to be unstable, nor can it be said to be bad, but it deviates from Liu Yishou's original intention.

Liu Yishou originally had no plan to fight the Wei army to the death. This wave of Northern Expedition was just to rob people and go south, so that Er Zhurong could take a breather by the way.

In his eyes, Liang Guo is not ready yet, and there are still some disobedient separatist forces that have not been dealt with.

And Gao Huan is not exhausted, still tightly controlling Hebei as the basic market.His cronies are also strong.

If this wave planned by Yu Jin is successful, it will be equivalent to most of Liu Yishou's elite soldiers cooperating to fight a large-scale annihilation battle, and the possibility of losing is very small.

However, even if it is successful, you have to consider the follow-up issues.The war was started by you, but it may not end as you wish.

The enemy troops expected to be wiped out in this wave are all peripheral soldiers of Gao Huan's forces. Even if they lose these soldiers and horses, it will be equivalent to having a finger cut off in the end, not a serious injury.

After that, Gao Huan must have brought reinforcements from his direct lineage to Xingyang to save the field. At that time, should he fight the opponent near Xingyang?
At that time, it was Wei Jun, not Liang Jun, who took the initiative, and Liu Yishou had the final say on how to fight!

If there is a decisive battle, how can Liang Jun's supplies be guaranteed?Liu Yishoudai

The soldiers came from far away, and along the way they relocated local farmers and tenants back to the country, and it was impossible to obtain supplies on the spot.

If the decisive battle is lost, all the territory that is now occupied will be spit out, even Nanyingchuan County and Runan County, places that the Wei Army could not hold at all, will also be spit out.Liang Jun was busy in vain, and he still had to worry about whether Gao Huan would attack Nanyang again!
Even if Gao Huan wins a game, as long as Liang Jun can't fight the Yellow River, then Gao Huan's elite soldiers can rely on Hebei to continuously come towards Luoyang.

Calculating the time, it will probably be the midwinter season at that time, the river will freeze and boats will not be able to sail, and the supply from Liang Guo's waterway will be completely cut off.

At that time, this war game that should have ended long ago, should we continue to play?
If you continue to play, it will be normal for the time to drag on for a few years with Wei Jun repeatedly on both sides of the Yellow River.

Will Xiao Ying, Chen Baxian from Guangzhou, Xiao Yi from Xiangzhou and others take the opportunity to attack?Will Liang Guo's stable political situation cause another disturbance?
If a protracted war is to be fought, the soldiers and horses that were planned to rob the population of Henan and other places and return to the south of the Yangtze River will have to be used to transport food and grass.And this military operation has become a wave of pure consumption without any short-term benefits.

Persistence is costly and the gains outweigh the losses. If you don't persevere, your efforts will fall short.The name of sending troops is still to support the Yuan family.I lost face.

The most important thing is that in the frontal battlefield, Liang Jun will lose the last back-up, and cannot bear the price of defeat!

In the predetermined plan, Yu Jin and Dugu Xin, the two sided divisions, were to act as the backup to protect Liu Yishou's army's retreat.Their task is to consolidate the land they occupy and establish the fortress Wubao in Nanyingchuan County and Runan County.

After this battle is over, Liang Jun will not withdraw from these two territories.Instead, it was used as a "protrusion" on the map to attract the Wei army to attack, making Gao Huan uncomfortable, and kept coming to bleed the Wei army.

Yu Jin and the others are standing in the position of generals, what they want is to make contributions and kill the enemy on the battlefield!The plan he proposed is also based on this way, considering how to destroy the enemy to the greatest extent.

And Liu Yishou is not only a commander in chief, but also a figure whose thinking and identity are infinitely equivalent to those of an emperor.The problem he has to consider is much more complicated than that of Yu Jin.

"Take my token and tell General Yu to let them start immediately and transfer the Dingkou in the south of Changshe City to Nanyang, Jingxiang, and Lianghuai. I have ordered Yang Min to be in charge of the matter.

I will naturally deal with the problems in Xingyang. It is good for the generals to perform their own duties, and there is no need to think about things that should not be thought about. "

Liu Yishou said in an unusually stern tone, making Xu Du nod repeatedly in fright.

This plan is the result of the sum of all the people, and he knew it beforehand.Everyone thought that Liu Yishou would definitely accept it, but they didn't expect the other party to be so indifferent and resistant.

While Xu Du was shocked, he was also puzzled.All the generals are working together, why is Liu Yishou unhappy?Ordinarily, Liu Yishou is not a narrow-minded person!
"Do you still have doubts in your mind?"

Liu Yishou asked with a smile.

"Back to King Wu, it is true."

Xu Du said honestly.

"Your hearts are too big, and your steps are too big. It's easy to get dragged. Go back and talk to them clearly. After taking down Nanyingchuan County and Runan County this time, I have credited them with credit."

Liu Yishou pointed to his lower body, and Xu Du instantly understood the indecent metaphor.

Seeing that the other party has understood, Liu Yishou continued to remind: "As for the rest, you can repair the Wubao in the newly occupied site when you have time, and transfer the refugees. You don't need to worry about the rest."

Xu Du took the order and left.

After he left, Yang Zhong walked up to Liu Yishou calmly and suggested: "General Yu's strategy is very safe, and the chances of winning are very high. After the three armies encircle Xingyang and wipe out the enemy, they can retreat to Qiluo City and immediately But, why did my lord refuse it?"

"You have a good idea. If they come, how can they leave so easily?"

Liu Yishou sneered and waved his hands helplessly.

Yang Zhong is still young, Liu Yi
Shouyou has always treated him kindly, so that he is now going smoothly, has not experienced many dangers in the world, and thinks too naively about things other than military affairs.

He will know when he steps on the big pit in the future.

In history, Yang Zhong was the figure Tucson Po. After defeating Jingxiang, he captured Liu Zhongli of Nanliang, treated him with courtesy, and sent him to Chang'an.

As a result, after Liu Zhongli arrived in Chang'an, he made a small report to Yu Wentai that Yang Zhong had killed innocent people in Jingxiang indiscriminately and plundered excessively.

Yang Zhong, who was bitten severely by a boring X dog that didn't bark, really waited for Yu Wentai's reprimand order, and was demoted to return to Beijing to report on his duties.

Although he quickly returned to his post, the enemy generals who were captured by Yang Zhong were basically slapped with a knife when he attacked the city and conquered the territory later.The reason probably lies with Liu Zhongli.

Of course Yu Jin and Duguxin are not Liu Zhongli, but if this group of people helps Liu Yishou encircle Li Yuanzhong and others and win a big battle, when Liu Yishou asks them to return to the teacher and retreat to Nanyingchuan County and other places, this group of people will still be defeated. Will you be obedient?
I'll help you move and move such heavy furniture to the 88th floor, so it's fine if you don't invite me to dinner, not even a bottle of water, right?

At that time, even if Yu Jin and Dugu Xin didn't think about anything, they were probably looking forward to visiting Luoyang as soon as possible.Even if you can't have sex, it's cool to piss at the entrance of the mansion to show off.This is all human nature.

The morale of the army cannot be violated, what can Liu Yishou do then?It is a high probability event for troops to advance to the bank of the Yellow River!
"Don't think about Yu Jin's support."

Liu Yishou shook his head and asked, "Are there any other ideas for this battle?"

"My lord, there are flying crows with divine fire, taking Xingyang is like searching for something from a bag."

Yang Zhong said indifferently.

"Oh, by the way, this time to fight against the Wei army, Shenhuo Flying Crow is not allowed to use it."

Liu Yishou said something slowly.

Not allowed?Then why are you carrying it?Don't you know how much trouble it takes to maintain this thing? It's impossible to imagine how to drag these things to Xingyang without going by water!
Yang Zhong cursed secretly in his heart, but he asked in doubt: "My lord, if you don't use such sharp weapons, do we want to compete with Wei Jun? There is no such rule on the battlefield, right?"

"Without Chen Qingzhi, you won't be able to fight? Go and ask Ma Fo-nian how he fought against Xingyang back then."

Liu Yishou seemed to have awakened the soul of a barbarian, and Yang Zhong was almost blocked by a single sentence.

Not to mention, I forgot, he was also from the old white robe department, Liu Yishou's slap in the face can be described as slapping.

"Jade is not cut, not a device.

I know very well that the current army is composed of old and elite soldiers, many of whom were born and died with Chen Dudu back then, and are used to seeing big scenes.

But many of them have not experienced the test of life and death, and no one knows whether they can be used at critical moments.

If it rains heavily, the divine fire and flying crows cannot be ignited at all. Are you going to disarm and surrender, or run away?Can such an army still fight?If you have time, why not sharpen your knife more, the fierce battle will come soon. "

Under the light of the fire, Liu Yishou looked into the distance, expressing something.

……

A day later, Liu Yi's army marched hurriedly to the east bank of Suoshui.At this moment, Li Yuanzhong's soldiers and horses were hoarding in Jing County, not far southeast of Xingyang, behind Liang Jun's side.Feng Longzhi's troops were hoarded in Guancheng, directly behind Liang Jun.

Suoshui is on the front, Xingyang City is on the other side of the river, and the Yellow River is not far to the north.Liu Yishou leads the main force, and the current situation is not very good.Of course, this wave of lone troops went deep, so it is not difficult to understand what happened.

However, Li Yuanzhong and Feng Longzhi didn't lead troops into Xingyang at all, but they were always waiting for the opportunity, and they didn't dare to trust them.According to their prediction, Yu Jin and Dugu Xin in the south should go north to Xingyang to participate in the encirclement.

So on the surface, it seemed that Liu Yishou's department was surrounded by the two of them, but it was really hard to say who was plotting who.

"Wongdongdongdongdongdongdongdongdong!"

The drums sounded in Liang Junzhong, Liu Yishou was on the verge of Suoshui, and beat the drums himself!Suoshui is not spacious, Liang Junfu
When the bridge crosses the river, more than a thousand infantry are crossed in just one wave.

The guard of Xingyang City just watched Liang Jun cross the river eagerly, without any time to react!In his prediction, how could Liu Yishou attack Xingyang? He must either retreat to a favorable position, or return to attack Feng Long's department to ensure the rear is the top priority!
This is not to mention that Wei Jun may cross the river at any time on the north bank of the Yellow River and encircle it on all sides!

After crossing the river with his own soldiers, Liu Yishou said to Yang Zhong: "Use climbing ropes, sharp claws, and shovels to carve gaps in the city wall. Although Xingyang City is strong, there are few defenders, and your troops are quick!"

Directly building "stairs" on the city wall, and then using climbing tools to climb up the wall is an emergency measure of last resort. Liu Yishou used it once when he conquered Xuanhu.

But it was at night!

Playing like this in broad daylight now, is it really treating the defenders as dead?

Yang Zhong was beyond surprised for a moment.

"My lord..."

"Soldiers are precious and fast! If you can't do it, go hard! If you can't attack Xingyang today, I will cut off your head first!"

Liu Yishou yelled at the hesitant Yang Zhong!
"Order!"

Yang Zhong was so excited that he clasped his hands into fists, and asked his own soldiers to bind iron claws and other objects used for mountaineering on his arms, preparing to go to the front line to climb the city in person.

But what happened later proved that Yang Zhong thought too much.The veteran of the white robe's old department first ascended to Yu Tianmin, and attacked the city in the first wave, rampant like a killing god.

The Xingyang defender's plan is to wait for Li Yuanzhong's support, as long as he lasts for half a day.It is said that Liang Jun has just arrived, and it will take a day to prepare the simplest siege equipment, right?

Therefore, their defense was also very lax, completely ignoring the situation of the Liang army attacking the city.

Many of the few defenders of the Wei army did not have time to go up the city wall, and many people were frightened and stupid, and their resistance was extremely slight.After all, no one would have imagined that Liang Jun's siege would be so daring to play.

By the time Yang Zhong climbed to the top of the city, the battle was already over. Yu Tianmin was carrying a four-foot-long heavy saber on his shoulder, patrolling back and forth at the top of the city, and when he saw a Wei soldier moaning on the ground, he immediately made a knife , the complexion is indifferent as if killing a chicken.

Half an hour later, the Wei army in the city had given up resistance, and the gate of Xingyang opened wide.

Yang Zhong walked up to Liu Yishou who was watching the battle, cupped his hands and said, "Although the last general didn't kill a few people, Xingyang City was destroyed anyway, fortunately he did not disgrace his life and invited the Lord to enter the city."

"Soldiers are expensive, what city do you enter? Give you half an hour to rest, eat something, and feed the horses.

Leave [-] wounded soldiers to guard the city, and after half an hour, bring all the cavalry and let the infantry run behind, we will march towards Guancheng, and beat Feng Longzhi's sap! "
