Chapter 531: Split in Two (Ask for Subscription!) )
…
Liaoyang Mansion.
In the Xingqing Hall of the original Liao Imperial Palace.
Li Yan looked at the map and asked Xu Guanzhong: "It's been almost ten days, why hasn't the Jin army moved at all?" ”
Xu Guanzhong said: "In the battle of hundreds of thousands of people, the grain and grass materials required are not a small number, and the Jin people are not ready, how dare they fight a decisive battle with our Liangshan army?" You must know that our Liangshan army is not a second-rate army like the Liao army and the Song army, and if the Jin people are not fully prepared, they will definitely be defeated. ”
The Liangshan army obtained the grain and grass materials of Liaoyang Prefecture and occupied the Liaodong Peninsula, so there was no replenishment for three or two months, and there was no problem at all.
Jin Jun is different.
Especially the current Jin Army.
The current Jin army is no longer all Jurchen warriors who just started eight years ago.
There were a large number of Han Chinese, Bohai people, Xi people, and Liao people in the Jin army, and they were the main components of the Jin army.
It turns out -
Those thousands of Jurchen warriors can fight on horseback, and when they are hungry, they can grab some at will, but they can't do it, and they can also top it by drinking some mare's milk, and if they are thirsty, they can be solved by drinking some river water, spring water or even eating some snow, and the cost of war is extremely low.
The current Jin army does not have such a low cost of war at all.
The Han people, Bohai people, Xi people, and Liao people, especially the Han people, who have the largest proportion, can't drink blood like the Jurchens.
Therefore, the Jin army also needs weapons and materials now, otherwise its combat effectiveness will be greatly reduced.
Therefore, if the Jin army wants to fight, it must also be fully prepared.
Speaking of which, some people may ask, how could Goryeo and Taephon suddenly mobilize hundreds of thousands of troops to attack Lelang and Zhenfan two counties?
First of all, Taifeng and Shuibo Liangshan have been in a state of confrontation all these years, in other words, Taifeng's hundreds of thousands of troops have actually been on the border between the two countries.
Secondly, there is a Thai seal between Goryeo and Shuibo Liangshan, and Goryeo has made some small moves, and the intelligence department of Shuibo Liangshan has not found out, which is actually normal, after all, the two sides have not had a conflict for five or six years, and the peace has been too long, which has made the Liangshan army numb, otherwise it would not have been possible to suffer such a big loss at the beginning of the war.
The most important thing is that Goryeo and Taebong never thought of fighting a protracted war with Shuipo Yangsan at all - their idea was to attack Seoul in three days and pacify the peninsula within half a month.
At that time, Shuibo Yangsan only had 70,000 horses in the two counties of Lelang and Jinban, while Goryeo and Taebong had a total of 400,000 horses and were ready to invest 300,000 horses in one fell swoop, so the strategy they formulated was not fanciful.
And as long as Goryeo and Taefeng can successfully take Seoul, Lelang and Zhenfan two counties, Goryeo and Taefeng will have sufficient supplies, and then they can slowly fight a war of attrition with the returning Liangshan army.
At that point, the situation will be completely reversed - the situation will become, Goryeo and Taebong will have ample weapons, supplies, and strong national support, and the rootless Supo Yangsan will no longer have the ability to fight for a long time.
In the end, Goryeo and Taephon are likely to win the decisive battle.
What's more, Goryeo and Taifeng also have strong reinforcements - Japan that took advantage of the fire to rob, the Jin State that calculated everything, the Western Xia who took advantage of the fire, and the Song State who sought self-protection were all strong reinforcements from Goryeo and Taifeng.
Let me ask, in this case, how could Goryeo and Taebong, who were already cornered, not stand up and take risks?
Pity!
Goryeo and Tae-bong missed one thing.
That is, the Taifeng army that was the first to attack, but it was just a rabble - although the Taifeng army took the lead in the sneak attack, it did not cripple the first carriage of Liangshan, and as a result, most of the first carriage of Liangshan fled back to Seoul, and then defended according to Seoul.
This led to the transformation of Goryeo and Taebong from active to passive.
In fact, Goryeo and Taephon also thought of remedy.
Seeing that they could not take Seoul quickly, Goryeo and Taefeng sent their armies to attack the ports of Shuibo Yangsan, hoping to rely on this to block the return of the Yangsan army.
But Ruan Xiaowu led the naval army and the amphibious battalion on the peninsula to protect Mufu Port through a battle to the death.
More importantly, the reinforcements that Li Yan sent back first, under the leadership of Han Shizhong, did not choose to rescue Seoul quickly, but chose to fight steadily and steadily, first recovering Jeonju and Gunsan Port, so that the Liangshan army could gain a foothold on the peninsula and have sufficient material support.
It can be said that the reason why Liu Qi was able to defeat the Goryeo and Taifeng coalition forces under Seoul was all due to the foundation laid by Han Shizhong.
Therefore, war is not just a matter of soldiers and horses.
Li Yan is also an old soldier, so he naturally knows the importance of grain and grass materials, and then deduces that without five or seven days, it should be impossible for the Jin army to attack.
Suddenly!
Li Yan remembered one thing, and then asked Xu Guanzhong: "Have Ruan Xiaoer and Wu Lan withdrawn to the Jiaodong Peninsula?" ”
Xu Guanzhong was so smart that he guessed at once that Li Yan should have wanted to transfer Wu Xuanjun over.
Xu Guanzhong said: "Four days ago, Ruan Xiaoer and Wu Lan jointly sent a message saying that they had begun to evacuate, and calculating the time, their vanguard should be about to withdraw to the Jiaodong Peninsula. ”
Li Yan said: "The Song Kingdom should not provoke us in a short period of time, so there is no need to garrison a large army on the Jiaodong Peninsula, leaving a battalion is enough...... By the way, how many centaurs does Wu Lan have now? ”
Xu Guanzhong said: "More than 30,000, less than 40,000." ”
Li Yan was surprised: "So many? I remember, at the beginning I only left him a battalion of regular troops and 20,000 reservists? ”
Xu Guanzhong said: "In the past two years, many people have crossed the defense line of the Song army and joined Liangshan, Wu Ling screened out the elite of these people, and then carried out political education and training, and then dispersed into his army, in addition, he also captured a lot of Song army soldiers, and then carried out political education, and then screened and trained, and then scattered into his army, if it were not for a lot of losses in the process of fighting with the Song army, his army would now have 60,000 or 70,000 horses. ”
Li Yan smiled: "This kid is really a good piece of material, no worse than his brother." ”
Xu Guanzhong said: "He can develop to this extent, it is not up to you, the king, those who come to join us in Shuibo Liangshan are all from you, the king, and the models used by Wu Lan are all created by you, the king." ”
Li Yan disagreed: "Don't erase Wu Lan's credit, we have more generals in the Liangshan Army, but not everyone can, under the siege of hundreds of thousands of troops, not only kept Liangshanbo, but also strengthened a lot." ”
Seeing that Li Yan didn't blame Wu Lan for expanding the army without authorization, Xu Guanzhong, who admired Wu Lan very much, said with a smile: "It's still the king, you are willing to give Wu Lan a chance, otherwise how can he, a young man in his twenties, have the opportunity to be the coach of one party?" ”
How could Li Yan not understand Xu Guanzhong's careful thoughts about protecting Wu Lan?
But then again, who wouldn't love an excellent general like Wu Lan?
Li Yan said: "Inform Li Jun to go to the Jiaodong Peninsula immediately, pick up Wu Lan and his army, and tell Wu Lu to let him bring Bai Varhan and Benlei Che to me, and let him leave a clever person to garrison the Jiaodong Peninsula." ”
Xu Guanzhong said: "Yes...... Your Majesty, there is one more thing I would like to discuss with you, Your Majesty. ”
Li Yan asked, "What's the matter?" ”
Xu Guanzhong organized the language for a while, and then said: "The fleet that never sets is too huge, and we have to rely on the turnover of the fleet in Liangshan, and it is a whole that is not very ...... Convenient, why don't you split it in two and turn it into two fleets? ”
Li Yan and Xu Guanzhong already have a very tacit understanding, so they know very well what Xu Guanzhong really means that the sun never sets on the fleet is too important, so all the eggs can't be put in one basket.
Xu Guanzhong: This is definitely a sign of loyalty, otherwise he would not have risked offending Li Jun and proposed that Li Yan divide the Sunset Fleet into two groups.
Li Yan is very clear about this, and then he also attaches more importance to Xu Guanzhong.
After pondering for a while, Li Yan asked, "Then who will be in charge of the other fleet on which the sun never sets?" ”
Xu Guanzhong said: "Ruan Xiaoer...... Now Liangshanbo no longer needs most of the naval army to garrison, Ruan Xiaoer has been idle for many years, Ruan Xiaoer has been stationed in the Liangshanbo base camp for many years, and Ruan Xiaoer has been with the king for the longest time, there is absolutely no problem in terms of loyalty, and he is very stable, even if he lacks ability, he can also be solved by arranging capable deputies and staff officers for him, so the minister suggested that Ruan Xiaoer should be in charge of another fleet that never sets. ”
Li Yan also felt that Ruan Xiaoer was very suitable, so he said, "You go and divide it...... I'll talk to Li Jun about it in person when I get back. ”
