Chapter 1033: Strategizing
In the camp of the coalition army, Zhu Cihong held a military newspaper and trembled, "The thief general Zhao Daxian has fallen into Zhangzhou, and the forward has entered Chaozhou, if we don't do it again, the back road will be cut off by the Wei thief." I don't know, what are the armies waiting for? ”
The coalition army went out of the customs and confronted the Wei army for many days, which made Zhu Cihong's heart anxious.
If they can't defeat the main force of the Wei army, it will be too late for Wei to kill Zhao Daxian into Guangzhou.
Sun Kewang had a calm face and said coldly: "Do it, how to do it?" Look at the camp of Gao Lao Er, the walled wall, the ditch, the horse rejection pile, and the Wei camp is built against the mountain, the firearms are sharp, if the army attacks the camp on the back, it will definitely suffer heavy casualties. If the coalition army is several times larger than Gao Laoer, I can still order an attack, and now that the number of people is equal, even if the troops are sent to attack, it will be difficult to break the Wei camp, but it will frustrate the morale of the coalition army. ”
Sun Kewang was familiar with military books, and the strength of the two armies was equal, so it was impossible for him to take the initiative to attack the Wei army camp, so he could only try to force the Wei army out of the camp for a decisive battle.
Zhu Cihong also understood the situation at this time, but he was still dissatisfied: "Then you can't do nothing." ”
"I have already let Ai Nengqi attack the Wei army's grain road, how can I say that I haven't done anything?" Sun Kewang's eyes narrowed, his heart was annoyed, and his face was very unhappy.
Just when the two were about to have an argument, Wang Yan came in and said happily: "Your Majesty, the high thief will return to the book, and he will fight tomorrow!" ”
Sun Kewang glanced at Zhu Cihong, "This must be because I sent Ai Nengqi to attack and disturb the Wei army's grain road, and I have made some gains." ”
Zhu Cihong's face was ugly, but as long as the Wei army went to war, he would be relieved.
~~~~~~
The Zhou army's attack on the Wei army's grain route made Gao Yihuan change his strategy of holding out.
The Wei army had a large number of horses and horses, and the food was all supplied by crossing the South Ridge Mountains, and if the grain road was threatened, it might be possible to capsize in the gutter.
With an army of 300,000 and tens of thousands of people, the daily consumption is huge, and there can be no problem in the grain channel, and hundreds of thousands of people may collapse immediately if the grain is cut off.
Although Gao Yihuan can take the risk and continue to wait for the fighter to arrive, that is not his character.
Gao Yihuan doesn't like to pin his hopes on others, in case Zhao Daxian fails to attack Guangzhou, and his side has difficulty in supplying food, causing the army's morale to waver, it will be a big trouble.
Continuing to wait, Gao Yihuan faced two uncertain factors, one was whether Zhao Daxian's partial division could be killed in Guangzhou, and the other was that he had to gamble on the Zhou army that came over and could not cut off the Wei army's grain route.
This requires taking two risks, and Gao Yihuan decided to take advantage of the army's abundant food and grass to fight with the Ming and Zhou coalition forces and control his own destiny.
As soon as the mind changed, the Wei army changed its posture of shrinking its defense, and a large number of cavalry rushed out of the camp gate to conduct scout battles and seize advantageous terrain for tomorrow's battle.
In front of the two barracks, on the front of the barracks, which was about more than ten miles wide, there were incessant gunshots and explosions for a while.
Between the two army lines, a cavalry of nearly 1,000 people was stationed on a high ground, led by a slightly chubby man, who was holding a clairvoyant mirror to observe the entire preset battlefield.
After ascending the throne as the emperor, the heavy government affairs did not make Gao Yihuan thinner, but because of staying up late and working hard, he grew more than ten catties of fat, his body was no longer flexible and vigorous, but his will was firmer.
Gao Yihuan looked at the terrain in front of him, his eyes kept flashing, the Wei army was cowering in the camp at first, allowing the Ming and Zhou coalition forces to occupy the battlefield, it can be said that the Wei army has lost a little opportunity.
Huang Bingzhong's expression was a little solemn, and he pointed to the raised ground on the left flank of the front with a horsewhip, "Your Majesty, on the front of the entire battlefield, although the left flank has ups and downs, the overall situation is relatively flat. On the right flank is the high ground, then the steep mountain. The minister thought that the key to this battle was the right-wing high ground. The art of war is cloudy, and those who are dangerous, I will live in it first, and I will live in Gaoyang to wait for the enemy; If the enemy lives first, lead him away, and do not obey him. Now this high ground, in the hands of the enemy, is very unfavorable to our army. ”
The highland hill has always been a battleground on the battlefield, and now the coalition forces occupy the high ground, which can be attacked and defended, which is really unfavorable to the Wei army.
Gao Yihuan looked at the high ground with a clairvoyant mirror, and saw that there were many figures of the Ming army above, so he withdrew the clairvoyant mirror, turned his head to look behind him, and showed a sneer on his face, "What you are talking about is common sense in the military book, and common sense sometimes can harm people." ”
Gao Yihuan smiled and waved his hand, "It's okay, I already have a strategy in mind." ”
As he spoke, Gao Yihuan raised his horsewhip, "Tomorrow's army will be divided into three groups, and you will lead 150,000 people as the left army in Huchen, and deploy the formation on the left flank plain as the main direction of the army. Huang Bingzhong Li led 50,000 men as the right army, lined up under the high slope of the right flank, and adopted a defensive posture. Li Laiheng commanded 50,000 men and hid in the mountains and forests behind the right army as a backup team. There are 50,000 men left, led by me myself, ready to support the left and right wings. ”
Gao Yihuan made a decision so quickly, which made all the generals a little frightened, but he immediately clenched his fists, "Oh, the ministers will take the order." ”
At this time, Gao Yihuan continued, "In tomorrow's battle, we are already familiar with the Ming army, and the key is the Zhou army. Sun Kewang is not what it used to be, when fighting, everyone can not be careless, especially pay attention to two points, one is Sun Kewang's war elephant, and the other is the Zhou army's Wudang army. ”
Jin Shenghuan fought with the Zhou army in Huguang, and said in a deep voice, "The Zhou army's war elephants charged, no one could stop it, and the Wudang army was good at fighting in the mountains and forests, and it was indeed very difficult to walk like flying in the forest. ”
Gao Yihuan said in a deep voice: "After you return to the camp, you all think about it, what should you do after you meet these two people?" As long as these two threats are resolved, I think this battle will be won! ”
~~~~~~
On the high ground extending down from the right-wing mountain range, Sun Kewang and Zhu Cihong led a group of generals, who were also observing the entire battlefield.
Sun Kewang looked at the scouts of the two armies chasing in the wilderness, and said coldly, "The decisive battle place tomorrow is mainly divided into two parts, one is the relatively flat land on the left, and the other is the high ground under your feet. ”
Huang Degong looked at the battlefield and said in a deep voice: "Our army controls the high ground, and the Wei thieves may not come to attack, and the direction of their main attack should be the left flank plain." ”
Sun Kewang bowed slightly, "This is the best, my war elephant rushed down directly from the high ground, crushed his right flank, and then outflanked and annihilated the main force of the Wei army." ”
The muscles on Huang Degong's face were torturing, and Sun Kewang fought a few small countries in Nanyang, and his tone was so crazy that he couldn't get any more than that.
Zhu Cihong asked, "How will the battlefield be divided tomorrow?" ”
Sun Kewang touched his beard, the 300,000 army was spread on the battlefield that was more than ten miles long, and it would be a big problem to command at that time.
He groaned for a while, "The Wei army of Gao Lao Er is quite strong, and in a battle tomorrow, 100,000 Ming troops, plus 50,000 Zhou troops, guarding the left flank, and the other 150,000 people, will be concentrated on the high ground." In this way, the Wei army will attack the high ground, I will have enough troops to defend, and the Wei thieves will attack the left flank, and I will be able to condescend and send reinforcements. ”
The strategy was set, and the commanders of the two armies rushed back to the camp one after another.
