Chapter 1119: Yang Ye VS Murong Ke (I)

After listening to Wang Meng's words, Luo Yi subconsciously stood up and questioned: "Murong Ke's army has already marched east, can't it be concluded that his target is Jinyang?" ”

Wang Meng said with a firm face: "Of course not." ”

Luo Yi was set by Wang Meng's momentum, and asked with some uncertainty: "For, why?" ”

Wang Meng glanced at Luo Yi, then looked at Yang Ye on the main throne, and said unhurriedly: "If Murong Ke's goal is Jinyang, then he could have led the army eastward directly, so why should he stay in Yinchuan and Ningxia to fight with our army?" ”

Yang Ye couldn't help frowning when he heard this, and Luo Yi was even more speechless, and then he argued strongly: "Before, the two armies of Yanmen and Jinyang came from the east, and Murong Ke may have been afraid that he would collide with our army, or even be attacked by the two roads, so he ......."

"There is more than one road to the east, and Murong Ke is full of cavalry, as long as he sends spies to explore the road, how can he run into our army?

What's more, even if he collides, Murong Ke probably won't be afraid, after all, he has 70,000 cavalry under his command, while our army's Eastern Route Army only has 60,000 troops, and our army may not be able to win or lose in a real fight. ”

Xi Zhicai said lightly, and his simple two sentences pushed the situation into confusion again.

After listening to Xi Zhicai's words, Luo Yi was speechless, he would refute Wang Meng only because Wang Meng was born in Wenchen, and also took away the position that should have belonged to him, so Luo Yi subconsciously refuted Wang Meng, but Xi Zhicai was different.

As the oldest military advisor in the Jin army, Xi Zhicai has a prestige second only to Qin Wen in the army, and although the main general of the army is Yang Ye, Xi Zhicai, who is a military advisor, is the person with the highest prestige in the army.

Therefore, Wang Meng's words Luo Yi can not be taken to heart, but no one dares not to listen to Xi Zhicai's words, and this is the prestige that Xi Zhicai has accumulated for ten years.

After Yang Ye listened to Xi Zhicai's words, he immediately asked humbly: "Regarding Murong Ke's eastward march into the army, I don't know what the military advisor has to say?" ”

Xi Zhicai glanced at Wang Meng and said with a smile: "Since Vice General Wang has concluded that Murong Ke's target is not Jinyang, then you might as well let him talk about it first." ”

The generals' eyes shifted to Wang Meng again, and Wang Meng glanced at Xi Zhicai gratefully, and then said in a deep voice: "The intelligence says that Murong Ke has led all the armies eastward, but for our spies, it is difficult to find out the specific number of Murong Ke taking the army, because whether it is 70,000 or 60,000, the difference in the eyes of the spies is not big.

However, the arrival of 70,000 troops at Zhenbei Pass and the arrival of 10,000 troops were the same for our army. ”

Yang Ye couldn't help but be shocked when he heard this, he found that he had fallen into a misunderstanding, as soon as he saw Murong Ke leading the army of soldiers and horses eastward, he thought that Murong Ke had taken all the soldiers and horses away, but he ignored the specific number of Murong Ke's army.

In fact, as long as Yuanmeng's army can reach Zhenbei Pass, whether it is 70,000 or 10,000, this is actually not much difference for the defenders, because the next will face a situation of two-sided attack, and Zhenbei Pass's internal defense is not strong, and it is difficult to hold Zhenbei Pass under two-sided attack.

Therefore, Zhenbei Pass will be attacked from both sides, so what is the substantive difference between being captured by an army of 10,000 and being captured by an army of 70,000?

Not only Yang Ye, but other generals also quickly thought of this, including Luo Yi, they couldn't help but admire Wang Meng's cleverness.

Xi Zhicai's eyes were full of appreciation when he looked at Wang Meng, he saw great potential in Wang Meng, and the future Jin Army would never be weakened because of the aging of himself and others.

"What Vice General Wang said coincides with me."

Xi Zhicai clapped his palms and asked with a smile: "As for this way to deal with it, I should have thought of it compared to Vice General Wang, right?" ”

Wang Meng nodded and said, "In the previous battle, it can be seen that Murong Ke used his troops almost without a drop of water, but now he is marching eastward in a grand manner, and he also deliberately leaves us time to intercept, so it can be seen that there must be a trap in this."

What Murong Ke used this time was a Yang scheme, and regardless of whether his target was Jinyang or not, even if we knew that Murong Ke was just a feint attack this time, we couldn't leave it to chance and turn a deaf ear to Murong Ke's army.

After all, Jinyang is the seat of our army, in case Murong Ke sees that our army is not intercepted, or the troops sent are not enough, so he really waves his army to attack Jinyang, then we will all become sinners. ”

Speaking of this, Wang Meng raised his head and looked at Yang Ye, and said in a deep voice: "For Murong Ke, the number of troops required to attack Zhenbei Pass, whether it is 10,000 or 5,000, there is not much difference, as long as you can reach Zhenbei Pass, so the final general will conclude that Murong Ke will not divide too much."

The last general suggested dividing the troops, leaving 10,000 cavalry to prevent Murong Ke's strange troops from entering Yinshan County, and 90,000 troops to intercept Murong Ke's army.

After the main army and Murong Ke's army met, if Murong Ke avoided the battle, it proved that his goal was still Zhenbei Pass;

If it is to face the battle, it proves that his goal is indeed Jinyang, and then our army will have to fight.

At that time, there will be 90,000 elite troops in hand, and even if it is a head-on battle, our army will not be afraid of the Yuan army at all. ”

Yang Ye saw that Wang Meng had arranged the battle situation without leakage, and he couldn't help but be impressed by this scholar who threw his pen from Rong, so he immediately stood up and ordered: "The governor of Bendu decided to divide the troops into two routes, the governor of Bendu personally led 10,000 elite cavalry to stay, in order to prevent the division of troops into Yinchuan, and Wang Meng's deputy general led 90,000 main forces to intercept Murong Ke. ”

Wang Meng's face suddenly showed surprise when he heard this, he offered the strategy of dividing the army into two ways because he wanted to lead the partial army himself, but he didn't want Yang Ye to let himself lead the main army, and he, the main general, wanted to lead the partial army, this kind of open-mindedness really made him have to be in awe.

"Most of the governors can't, the last general is only shallow in learning, how can he bear this big ......"

Wang Meng's word 'Ren' didn't have time to go out, but was directly interrupted by Yang Ye waving his hand.

"Ben will all believe that you have this ability, don't you still believe in yourself?"

"This ......"

Wang Meng forcibly suppressed the emotion in his heart and said in a deep voice: "No." ”

As soon as the order was issued, the army marched out.

In this way, Wang Meng led an army of 90,000 and opened the first battle that he personally led.

Less than three days after Wang Meng's army left, Yang Ye received news of the activities of the Yuan army, and immediately sent spies to search for the movements of the Yuan army on a large scale.

"Report ...... Qi Yu Governor found that the Yuan Cavalry of the brigade was marching towards Yinshan County, and the general of the army was ......"

Yang Ye faintly sensed that something was wrong, and immediately asked, "Who is it?" Say it. ”

"It's Murong Ke."
