Chapter 612: Zi's Situation

Zhao Feng frowned and said: "What Fengxiao means, is it that we can't defeat the Huns this time?" ”

Guo Jia said with a smile: "If the Huns were easy to defeat, they would not have waited until now." Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info”

"Besides, this time the Xiongnu sent an army of 80,000, while Zhao Thorn Shi only had more than 45,000 troops stationed in the Zi clan."

"Does Zhao Tingshi think that with 40,000 soldiers and horses, he can defeat 80,000 cavalry?"

"In addition, these 80,000 Hun cavalry are obviously not all the strength of the Huns."

"Therefore, if you want to defeat the Huns, Zhao Tingshi should not count on it for the time being."

"According to my speculation, if you want to subdue the Huns, even if you use various schemes, you need at least 150,000 soldiers and horses!"

Zhao Feng was speechless when he heard this.

All the soldiers and horses he has now combined, and he doesn't have 150,000.

However, Zhao Feng is also mentally prepared.

Knowing that the Huns are not easy to deal with.

Otherwise, after Cao Cao unified the north, why did he assign all the states to the Huns?

It was because the Huns were difficult to deal with, and Cao Cao couldn't do anything about the Huns.

With Cao Cao's determination to attack Wuhuan, if he could fight, Cao Cao would never give up the annexation to the Xiongnu.

And in a way.

Cao Cao's move also laid the foundation for the subsequent chaos of the Five Nonsense.

Of course, all this is known by Zhao Feng based on some sporadic information.

As for how the annexation was divided at that time, whether it was divided in whole or in part, Zhao Feng is not clear.

Then.

Zhang Liao pushed open the curtain and walked in, and bowed his hand to Zhao Feng: "I've seen the lord!" ”

Zhao Feng smiled: "Wen Yuan is here." ”

"What's going on now?"

"Did the Huns lead their troops to attack Zishi today?"

Zhang Liao shook his head: "According to the news sent back by the sentry horseman." ”

"The Huns have not moved today."

Zhao Feng nodded: "In terms of Zi's baggage, how are you prepared?" ”

Zhang Liao smiled: "The lord can rest assured of this. ”

"Since I got the news that the Xiongnu have gathered various tribes."

"Tian Beijia sent people to transport 200,000 stone of grain and various materials to Zishi."

200,000 stone of grain is enough for 45,000 people and animals to eat for three months.

In less than two months, this year will be over.

And as soon as the end of the year passes, the spring festival will be held.

Zhao Feng didn't go back to worship because of the war.

When Shan Yuvro arrives, he will inevitably go back to sacrifice.

If Yu Fuluo did not withdraw his troops at that time, Zhao Feng would also have a chance to defeat the Xiongnu soldiers and horses.

Zhang Liao continued: "In addition, Tian Bei is afraid that something will happen to the Zi clan. ”

"In Pingtao and Daling, 150,000 stone of grain and various baggage were hoarded each."

"Even if the Zi clan can't hold it, we can retreat to Pingtao and Daling."

Zhao Feng pondered for a moment: "Huang Shao's realm, what is the current situation?" ”

Zhang Liao thought for a while: "General Huang has also communicated with me about the situation of Jiexiu. ”

"Jiexiu currently has 100,000 military rations and a certain amount of baggage."

"As long as the Zi clan is in a hurry, General Huang can immediately lead five thousand soldiers and horses to come over for reinforcements!"

Zhao Feng nodded: "I probably know the situation of the Zi family." ”

Then he suddenly asked, "That's right." ”

"Feng Xiao has quite an opinion about you, placing the camp in a position with your back to Fenshui."

"What does Wen Yuan think about this?"

Zhang Liao raised his eyebrows: "If there is no Zi Clan in front." ”

"It's really inappropriate for the camp to be camped in a place with its back to Fenshui."

"However, with the Zi clan in front, could it be that the Huns still dare to bypass the Zi clan and attack the camp directly?"

"In that case, I can just lead my troops out and attack the back of the Huns."

"And the Huns will be worried that we will attack them back and forth like this, and they will naturally not attack the big battalion."

"In addition, in case the Zi clan can't withstand the attack of the Huns."

"We can also withdraw from the east gate to the camp."

"As for the retreat across the river, I have already sent someone to prepare it."

"If the Huns invade the camp, we will set a fire, and maybe we will burn a lot of Huns to death!"

From Zhang Liao's statement.

Zhao Feng also heard a lot of off-string sounds.

That is, Zhang Liao has no hope for holding the Zi clan.

The main purpose of the camp was to receive the withdrawal of the large army from Zi.

And near the big camp, they are also secretly ready to exit.

As long as there is a situation, this side can immediately withdraw to the other side of the Fenshui.

Zhao Feng pondered for a moment: "How do you deal with the people of the Zi clan?" ”

Zhang Liao said with a smile: "I heard the news of the Huns' abnormal movements. ”

"I have already dismissed all the people near the Zi clan."

"Moreover, when the people were relocated to Shangdang County, the Zi clan had already moved a lot."

"So there aren't many people in the vicinity of Zi's anymore."

"As for the people in the city of Zi, they have also been resettled in the Daling area."

"So there aren't too many people in Zishi City at the moment."

"Those who stayed were old people who didn't want to leave their homeland."

Zhao Feng is also quite embarrassed for these old people who are unwilling to leave.

However, the roads were all chosen by themselves, they were unwilling to go, and it was impossible for Zhao Feng to be forced to send them away now.

The number of troops is already tight, and now they will not divide their troops to do these things.

If the city of Zishi is broken, as long as the losses can be relatively reduced, it will be considered the right thing to do with the people of the state.

Because as long as it is war, it is impossible not to die.

If you want to be immortal, you can only put an end to war.

But this question is more sensitive, so Zhao Feng doesn't want to ask it.

Changed the subject: "How are the Zi's fortifications doing now?" ”

Zhang Liao said with a smile: "At the same time as dismissing the people around the Zi clan. ”

"Then he gathered all the people together and blocked the roads with mounds of earth at some of the key thoroughfares."

"In addition, a large number of horse traps and horseshoe pits have been dug in the vicinity of Zishi."

"If the lord doesn't lead troops to come for reinforcements, I can only be sure that I will hold on to the Zi clan for a month."

With 10,000 defenders, deal with 80,000 cavalry.

It's good to be able to stay for a month.

And judging from Zhang Liao's dismissal of the people near the Zi clan, Zhang Liao himself is not optimistic about keeping the Zi clan.

Of course, this is also the strategic policy that Zhao Feng arranged early on.

This policy is to borrow the policy of ***, 'Save the land and lose people, people and land are lost, people and land are lost, people and land are saved.' ’

That's why Zhang Liao did this.

If it weren't for Zhao Feng's promulgation of these decrees a long time ago, according to the laws of the Han Dynasty, the guards would have to stick to their station.

If the city is broken, even if the defenders flee back, they will be punished.

As for the relocation of the people in the vicinity, it is even more impossible.

Unless you launch a strategy to clear the wilderness.

And this kind of strategy is only to drive away the surrounding people, and as for the resettlement problem, it depends on the mood of the principal.

Of course, Zhang Liao's move can also be regarded as a strong wall.

And Zhao Feng also treated the surrounding people kindly.

To put it simply, it is to prevent the Huns from plundering the people around the Zi clan when they can't take the Zi clan.
