Chapter 979
Huda laughed twice, didn't talk nonsense, this thing is a typical idle egg, very envious and jealous of how this kid is so capable, although this guy keeps flickering on his lips These are the instructions of Her Royal Highness the Princess, the guidance of Her Royal Highness the Princess, and the inspiration of Her Royal Highness the Princess.
Not...... If the big guys were innocent young men, they might have been fooled by this goods, but the problem is very clear to everyone, in fact, it is these things made by Duan Shaojun.
However, everyone is also happy to see his highness's prestige rising, so they are embarrassed to poke it.
When he was talking nonsense, he saw a lieutenant hurriedly burrow into the big tent and said to Li Youwen. "Your Highness, Shuozhou Jiedu made his son Duan Shoujian lead 5,000 cavalry to aid ...... on his father's orders."
As soon as these words came out, Li Youwen couldn't help but be a little stunned, and Duan Dagongzi was also surprised. "Duan Shoujian led his troops to help?"
"Yes, at present, Duan Gongzi is leading the army to stay outside the city of Yunzhou Prefecture, and General Li Zhonglang will come and report to His Highness." The lieutenant nodded and replied.
"Duan Yuanzhong is not afraid that his father will be angry if he does this?" Duan Shaojun narrowed his eyes, reached out and touched his chin subconsciously.
"Duan Yuanzhong is my close neighbor of Yunzhou, Yunzhou is in danger, he sent troops to help, this is naturally reasonable, what does it have to do with his father?" Li Youwen couldn't help but glared at Duan Shaojun and said in a low voice.
"But Your Majesty, Duan Yuanzhong's reinforcements didn't come early, they didn't come late, but they had to wait until the reinforcements from the imperial capital arrived, and they were belated, which seemed to be a bit of a thing......" Duan Shaojun shook his head, squinted his eyes and muttered quietly.
"Tell General Li Zhonglang to let Duan Shoujian and his soldiers and horses temporarily be stationed outside Yunzhou City. When Ben Shuai returns to Yunzhou, he will go to see that prince in person. Li Youwen ignored Duan Shaojun, and after thinking about it, she instructed the captain.
Not long after the captain went out, the generals of the reinforcements had already arranged their subordinates and rushed to the big tent of the Chinese army, and when they saw the delicate and perverted sand table and military map, they were shocked again, especially that Zhang Heng, who couldn't wait for the whole person to climb in the sand table and observe every grass and tree in the sand table.
For the reckless behavior of these guys, General Zuo Yu Linwei, who had seen such a sand table for the first time before, and his performance was not much better, could not help but have a sense of superiority in IQ.
"Generals, since they have all arrived, then, Ben Shuai will say a few more words, what he has done is not only to plunder my Yunzhou, but also to include my Tang Dynasty's Yunzhou into its territory. After all, Yunzhou is located in the eastern border of the Tang Dynasty, and the important thing is that it happens to be deep into the hinterland of the grassland. In the north of Yunzhou, less than a thousand miles away from the Golden Horde of Qihu, Qihu has always regarded Yunzhou as a thing in his pocket......"
With Li Youwen's explanation, at least those reinforcements understood the superiority of Yunzhou's geographical location and the importance of it as a bridgehead for confrontation and counterattack against Qihu.
After Li Youwen, the great general, finished speaking, Duan Dagongzi coughed twice and stood up, holding a slender whip in his hand. "Generals, now, let Duan give you a detailed description of the southward strength and the route of the march of Qihu this time, as well as the response strategy of our army......
"Qihu gathered a total of 170,000 troops to invade Yunzhou in the south, because of the strong troops, so, this time in the south, Mo Li Khan's special troops attacked my Yunzhou in three ways. All the way to the commander of the left capital Lieutenant Bo Tie, with 50,000 troops, through Hengshan Mountain to the south, the target is naturally the easternmost city of Yunzhou to defeat the enemy......
…… As soon as the enemy city is taken, then there will be no barrier in the entire Ding'an County, and the 50,000 cavalry of Boltie can go around Zhucheng without hindrance, and the front of the army will be directed at Yunzhou.
Mo Li Khan himself led 80,000 Qihu elite troops, walked in a straight line openly, took the shortest route, and put on a posture of uncle, I just want to overwhelm people, and advance in the direction of Yunzhou Prefecture, 80,000 Qihu soldiers and horses, twice the number of my left Yu Linwei, it is precisely because of this that Mo Li Khan will be so bold and reckless to face it without concealment.
As for Hassan, the eldest prince of Qihu, commanded the headquarters of 40,000 iron cavalry, and went straight to Qianxian, if Qianxian was taken, then he could continue to advance south, and go down through the Yunshui River Valley to copy the back road of Yunzhou Prefecture. At that time, there were 80,000 Qihu cavalry of Moli Khan in front, 50,000 cavalry of Boltie in the east, and 40,000 troops of Hassan. The entire Yunzhou will inevitably be stirred up by them, so that our army will lose sight of one or the other, and can only watch Yunzhou invade by it......"
With Duan Shaojun's eloquence, all the generals' brows couldn't help but be shrouded in a dark cloud, and the difference between the other party's strength and the strength of the other side was quite large, especially under Duan Dagongzi's eloquent description, which made all the generals feel pressured.
"But the problem is that we have all the routes of their march, their strategic intentions are already in our minds, and with the timely arrival of reinforcements led by the generals, our troops are enough to plan the next strategy of destroying the enemy."
A reinforcement general beside Zhang Heng couldn't help but speak: "That Duan Changshi, are you exaggerating, there is so much difference between our strength and the other party, so if you rely on the fortress of Yunzhou for garrison, Mo Li Khan, who wants to come to Qihu, will naturally not be able to help us, but if you want to...... The last general is really worried that when the time comes, he will lose his troops and generals, and he is afraid that it will be difficult to even protect Yunzhou......"
"This general is not in a hurry, please listen to Duan Mou talk about the strategy we have formulated, and then determine whether there is a chance of success?" Duan Shaojun smiled and waved his hand. "What's more, war is not only a game of military strength, but also a contest of wisdom between the two sides, I believe that my Zuo Yulin Wei soldiers and all the reinforcement soldiers must be far stronger than those Qihu barbarians who don't even have their own words in terms of professionalism and brains, right?"
Duan Shaojun's words struck a stalk at those who wanted to object, who would jump out and take the initiative to express that they were more stupid than the Qihu people? Or maybe the Bichihu are stupid? Anyway, no one would take the initiative to confess.
Seeing that these guys had to shut their mouths stupidly, Duan Dagongzi nodded with satisfaction, and the long whip in his hand clicked on the delicate sand table. "Next, Duan will introduce to you the strategy of our army this time, to put it simply, it is to block all the way, block all the way, and annihilate ...... all the way."
"And the object of annihilation in our phase is this, the Western Route Army led by the Great Prince of Chihu Hassan, the reason why it chose this way is for three reasons, first, the soldiers and horses led by the Great Prince Hassan of the Qihu are moving the fastest, and now, they are less than 100 miles away from Qianxian County in the northwest border of Yunzhou."
"As long as he captures Qianxian, he will inevitably continue to move south, through the Yunshui River Valley, after the Yunshui River Valley, is the central hinterland of Yunzhou, here, but a vast land, and the important grain production areas of Yunzhou and most of the counties are in this area."
"If Hassan's troops go out of the Yunshui River Valley, when the time comes, he only needs to scatter his 40,000 soldiers and horses and start to wreak havoc everywhere, and our army will appear extremely passive, so Hassan has become the primary target that our army should and must uproot."
Duan Dagongzi pointed around on the sand table with the long whip, and explained the strategy with spittle.
Hassan's strategic intentions have been mentioned in the information given by Rahan, and now, Hassan's army is marching at the fastest speed, and Moli Khan's middle route army and Boltie's eastern route army are still strolling on the Qihu grassland, but Hassan has approached Qianxian, and the distance between Moli Khan and Hassan's army alone has reached three hundred miles.
This gave Tang of Yunzhou enough time to encircle and annihilate this unlucky Qihu army, only to surprisingly encircle and annihilate Hassan with twice the strength in the shortest possible time, and then face the army of Moli Khan, so that the comparison of forces between the two sides will not be at least as exaggerated as before.
The important thing is that to deal with Hassan with twice the number of troops, not only can we overwhelm people with force and ensure that we can take down the other side, but the most important thing is that we can play a role in training troops with unified command.
After all, twice the strength of the enemy to deal with the enemy, even if the initial cooperation will be easy to travel pool, but in the case of twice the strength of the enemy, and one party is deliberately ambushed, the fault tolerance is improved a lot, and it is easy to make up for any loopholes.
