Chapter Eighty-Nine: If I can get a practical plan, I should send it to the north

Chen Zhi's words fell, and the entire Accord suddenly fell silent. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Everyone fell into thought, analyzing the possibility that Chen Zhi said.

From Wang Cai's words, they all felt that this thing did not seem to be made up, if it was true, then the thief army would definitely enter Xuzhou from Qingzhou when it went south, and it was very likely that they would come to Pengcheng County, and once they entered the county, it would inevitably be another catastrophe.

In the original history, similar things have happened more than once, and the most famous in later generations is the Wang Lun uprising in the Qingli period of the Northern Song Dynasty, whose people revolted in Shandong, because of the inconvenience of development, and finally went south to Jianghuai, and the soldiers pointed directly at Yangzhou.

Based on various considerations, Chen Zhi gave such a judgment.

"That'...... According to the nephew's opinion, if the thief goes south, how to deal with it? This time it was Liu Kan who spoke, and he looked at Chen Zhi with a solemn expression.

If it is a simple discussion of military issues, the Qing Talk will also be a clean talk, but it can be seen that Wang Cai and Wang Kui's performance is not like a fabrication, and then listen to Chen Zhi's analysis, when it comes to his hometown, where can he listen calmly. , and because of the breakout, they didn't think just now, even if they had written down the countermeasures in the past, it would be difficult to come up with countermeasures in a hurry.

Not only Liu Kan, but Xiao Zuo also frowned, and tried to say: "There is no trivial matter in the affairs of the soldiers, Xuzhou also suffered a military disaster a few years ago, I still remember the scene at that time, and I don't know what it will look like if I do it again, even if it is only possible, we must prepare in advance." ”

Unlike celebrities and celebrities in other places, the celebrities who live here, regardless of their origins, have experienced military disasters and are naturally reluctant to suffer another disaster.

Zhang Yong also put away his careful thoughts, frowned, and listened intently.

Wang Kui also nodded silently.

As for Liu Yi and Liu Gang, the two looked at the scene in front of them, on the one hand, they were worried that Chen Zhi's speculation would come true, and on the other hand, they also noticed that several celebrities began to take the initiative to talk to Chen Zhi.

Such an atmosphere is very impactful for people of Liu Yi's age, and he is secretly surprised.

In the corner of the room, a woman dressed as a man took out a pen and paper, and while listening, she quietly recorded, looking up at Chen Zhi from time to time, her eyes showing different colors.

After listening to the words of the two celebrities, Wang Cai also nodded again and again, and a thought suddenly came to his heart.

"If this Chen Zhi can really give a countermeasure, then send such a military strategy to the north to Zhu Shou, not to mention let him follow the strategy, at least it is a reference, and let him know that I also know capable people! However, it must be asked clearly, Chen Zhi had better be able to say specific tactics, so that if Zhu Shou values it, it will be more convenient to act according to the policy. ”

As soon as he thought of this, he suddenly became urgent, and asked, "According to Brother Chen's meaning, what if the thief army breaks through?" ”

Although the words came out, Liu Kan and the others also felt that even if Chen Zhibing could judge these, it would not be easy to come up with a set of solutions in a short time.

Chen Zhi closed his eyes, silently pondered the map and geography, and then spoke.

"It should be divided into two parts," he said in the astonishment of everyone, meeting everyone's gaze, "The first part is to arrange the characteristics of the thief army's march. Compared with the thief army, if the officers and soldiers move, the soldiers, horses, grain and grass, and logistics are heavy, and there is no flexibility of the thief army, but the advantage is incomparable with the thief army. ”

Liu Kan nodded while listening, and when he heard this, he asked again: "I understand the preparation of defense measures, but what is the matter with this meticulous work?" In addition, this post house, the heirloom house, and the post booth were the old system of Emperor Zhaolie, and now the three have been merged. ”

Others were on the lookout.

"All three merged?" Chen Zhi was slightly stunned, and then knew that time had passed, and some systems were different from the past, and he continued: "The careful work is to be prepared, if you have friends who are generals in the army, you will know as soon as you ask." The wandering army generally has no rules, and most of them are on the spot for food and looting when marching, and the manpower lost in the battle will also be supplemented by temporary recruitment and kidnapping, and the flow of personnel is huge, the command system is chaotic, and the soldiers do not know the generals and generals, so it is most suitable to send people to infiltrate. ”

Xiao Zuo's worried expression eased slightly, and he stroked his beard and said: "When my nephew said so, I understand, these people infiltrated and responded with troops inside, so that the thief army collapsed by itself?" ”

Chen Zhi shook his head and said: "This thief army is surrounded in the mountains and forests, and it can still break through, which means that it has been tempered, and the internal system may still be lacking, but compared to the ordinary rabble, it is very different, and it is not easy to disturb such a force, so these people infiltrate it, and they have to lurk to pass on the news, so that the officers and soldiers can find out the marching route of the thief army." ”

"I see, it's to find out the movements of the thief army!" Wang Kui clapped his hands lightly, revealing a sudden expression.

Zhang Yong shook his head slightly, feeling that it was not uncommon to send spies to investigate the enemy army, and there was something special to talk about.

At this time, Liu Yi couldn't help but ask: "Isn't it a sparse and ordinary thing for spies to investigate?" ”

Wang Kui glanced at him and explained with a smile: "What Chen Xian's nephew said about sending spies is not to probe the military situation, nor to lead troops to attack, but to find out the target of the thief army. ”

In this era, there is no satellite positioning, a few miles out of the city is a forest land, many people do not even have a clear concept of the topography of the county where they live, and there is no clear overall geography in their minds, and there are not many people who know geography.

Even in later generations, a large number of people will not be able to describe a map of their city based on their impressions.

Under such circumstances, even an army of several thousand people, as soon as it gets out of the encirclement, it is like a fish in the sea, as long as it is careful, it is difficult to be discovered, and even if it is discovered by people along the route, it is also trapped by the timeliness of information transmission, and cannot accurately grasp the position.

You have found the enemy army here, not to say that a telegram has passed, and the generals of our army will know it, because of the restrictions of transportation and communication conditions, the battlefield in the eyes of the commander is foggy, and before the arrival of clear and timely news, the generals sitting in the center often cannot determine the location of the enemy troops, and the enemy troops may have been transferred as soon as the news came.

Those present also knew this truth, so they made it difficult.

"So, even if you get the news, you may not be able to stop the thief army?" All of a sudden, the atmosphere in the Accord became solemn, although the thief army went south, it may not approach Pengcheng County, but the matter of the thieves coming to the city, but if there is a little possibility, it will make people feel uneasy.

Wang Cai's eyes rolled and he looked at Chen Zhi: "Brother Chen, since you mentioned this, there must be a countermeasure, don't worry about it, just say it." ”

When he said this, everyone else came back to their senses and looked at Chen Zhi one after another.

Chen Zhi did not delay, and continued: "In fact, the battle situation has been very clear since the time the thief army broke through. ”

"What do you mean by that?" Liu Kan had already used a little inquiring tone, he was originally an informal character, and he didn't think there was anything wrong, but he heard the eyelids of the two juniors of the Liu family, especially Liu Yi, he suddenly had a feeling that something was wrong.

"These celebrities have all faintly talked to Chen Zhi on an equal footing, and the circle between me and Peng Lin and others can still accommodate Chen Zhi's big Buddha?" But the thought of him was fleeting, and he was quickly overwhelmed by worries about the thief army.

"If the thief army breaks through, then according to the previous analysis, we already know the opponent's goal, and we can prepare in advance, which is the second part."

As soon as Chen Zhi's words were said, Wang Kui and Liu Kan reacted.

Again, because of transportation and communication restrictions, the battlefield in the eyes of the generals is foggy, and it is impossible to get news in time and operate in detail, but if it is not limited to one city and one place, looks at the overall situation, and considers the entire strategic situation, you can attack the enemy and save it, and defend the enemy must attack.

Chen Zhi saw the expressions of Wang Kui and the others, so he explained in detail: "There are spies who infiltrate the thief army and find out their routes, and they can't catch them for a while, but they can know where they want to go, so that they can determine a suitable place for ambushes and decisive battles in advance." ”

Whether it is a spy or a meticulous work, it is not the key, it is to ensure that the enemy's strategic goal does not change, as long as the strategic goal remains unchanged, you can set up an ambush in advance in the place where the thief army must pass.

The key to this military strategy lies in judging the enemy's strategic objectives, and by grasping the objectives, we can gain the upper hand everywhere.

In fact, even if there is no meticulous work and spies, this plan can still be implemented, as long as the location of the thieves crossing the danger or crossing the river can be estimated in advance, and the spies are only to strengthen the insurance.

If you only see spies and detailed works, and think that you rely on spies to grasp the enemy's situation, you are somewhat limited to details and lose the overall consideration.

"I see!"

Hearing this, even Zhang Yong couldn't keep silent anymore, and drank a good sigh, while the others breathed a sigh of relief.

Wang Cai was even more overjoyed, and his sorrow was gone, so he thought of sorting out Chen Zhi's words and sending them to the north as soon as possible.

The woman in the corner frowned for a moment, then lowered her head and began to write.

Chen Zhi didn't show a smile, and still said solemnly: "Even if this is the case, you can't take it lightly, let alone relax, you know, all this is based on the thieves going south, because the intelligence is not enough, this foundation is not solid, and even if you know the thief's marching route, the other party may also attack the east and west, deliberately misleading, they can all use the divisive plan, then the possibility of the plan cannot be ruled out." ”

When he said this, everyone became nervous again, and even Wang Cai asked with a serious face: "What if it is really a sound to attack the west?" ”

"Good fighters, to people but not to people, if the thief army can break through, it is to rely on the change of reality to lead the nose of the official army, the official army wants to extinguish them, you can also be virtual and real, let the counties along the line be ready, force, induce the thief army to march, don't think about how to deal with the division of the thief army, but control the goal of the thief army, grasp the initiative, it depends on the personal decision of the general, do this, and then send an elite army to arrive in advance to the dangerous place, layout the decisive battle, but no matter how the layout, you must first be familiar with the terrain, review the terrain to win."

"So you can be sure of victory?" Wang Cai was relieved again.

Chen Zhi still shook his head and said: "Don't think about winning first, after getting familiar with the terrain, the first thing is not to think about how to fight, but to consider, if you fail, how to retreat with the help of the terrain and retain your strength, the previous arrangement is also based on this principle, war is not only to defeat the enemy, but also to achieve your own goals, and at the same time strengthen or preserve your own strength." ”

When he said this, several people looked at each other.

Only Wang Kui stroked his palm and echoed: "Before you win, you will lose first, good!" ”
