Chapter Seventy-Two: The Strategy of the Thief Army
In the silent military discussion, everyone did not dare to move, only Luo Rucai's flashing eyes remained, and Yuan Shizhong's eyes were rolling.
Just when Li Zicheng was thinking about the wording......
Suddenly, Li Yan stood up and said, "Generals." In fact, in the battle outside the mouth of Liuyuan, if the goal is to capture Kaifeng and sweep the world, it will not be a great defeat for our army. ”
"In my opinion, I think it's even more ...... The officers and soldiers have entered the ranks of King Chuang and the generals! ”
As soon as Li Yan came out, the crowd was in an uproar.
Even Dang Shousu, who was kneeling on the ground, was taken aback, and looked at Li Yan, and was extremely moved for a while. This is to clear the party's responsibility for keeping the party.
It's just that when Li Yan said this, not only the red lady in the corner was shocked, but even the other generals also talked about it, and their eyebrows and eyes were full of disbelief.
Especially Liu Tuotian under Yuan Shizhong, the general of the Wandering Army, who was defeated by the party and braved thousands of displaced people, although he was finally rescued by Li Yan, he was extremely unfair at the moment: "If the party general is not a big defeat in the battle at Liuyuankou, then it is possible that thousands of sons and daughters under my command have not died?" ”
"How did King Chuang come up with such an unreliable one, and the defeated one can still be said to be victorious?"
"It's just that you can't afford to lose, what are you doing with all this nonsense?"
It was Luo Rucai, who also snorted coldly: "Oh? I want to hear how I can say that the dead are alive! ”
As soon as Luo Rucai opened his mouth like this, even Li Zicheng was not easy to hide.
In fact, Li Zicheng did not intend to cover up the past for Li Yan. Even, Li Zicheng looked at Li Yan with great anticipation. He knew that Li Yan was not the kind of person who talked nonsense.
Sure enough, Li Yan spoke. It made Li Zicheng look encouraged.
I only heard Li Yan say: "The result of the first battle of Liuyuankou is this, and thousands of soldiers were broken. If the party general is defeated, it can only stop at the party general. Stop at the mouth of Liuyuan. It does not mean that Kaifeng will not succeed in the first battle, and it cannot mean that our army will not be able to defeat the official army. So discouraged, so frustrated, so thinking of surrendering. This is by no means the mind to swallow up the world. Because, from a larger perspective, from the strategic planning of the entire Kaifeng First World War. In the battle of Liuyuankou, there were gains and losses, and tactically it may have failed. But strategically. Our plan has succeeded! ”
"From beginning to end, our army's plan for Kaifeng City was to trap and besiege Kaifeng City, and we did not intend to attack it hard." Li Yan looked at Luo Rucai with a smile and said, "General Luo, do you remember what we agreed on in the first military meeting?" ”
"That's true." Luo Rucai's arrogance suddenly reined. It was as if he had thought of something crucial.
Li Yan continued: "King Chuang, General Luo, and General Yuan joined forces to attack Kaifeng, but what they did was to fight and fight. First, it is better to let the defenders in Kaifeng City, and second, not to let the officers and troops outside the city to garrison troops, and to attack our army before and after. Consideration of each other's involvement. Facts have proved that the attack of King Chuang with General Luo and General Yuan is effective. Our offensive succeeded in making the officers and soldiers dare not stop, and they went out of the hard-to-fight camp and fought with our army in the field. It was even more forced to rescue Kaifeng. And this is the same encirclement and reinforcement strategy as the battle of Zhuxian Town. ”
At this point, there was a sudden silence in the tent.
Everyone looked at Li Yan. It's all about thinking.
For these anti-thief generals, most of them are actually mud legs. Don't look at Luo Rucai, Yuan Shizhong and Li Zicheng, there are many soldiers and horses now. Surrounded like an emperor of the earth.
But in reality, few of these people can adapt to the metamorphosis of their own identity. Just like Liu Zongmin. After entering the city of Beijing, he made a torture and plunder, and made the city like hell. In the end, the so-called Dashun Dynasty collapsed overnight.
Therefore, now that Li Yan explained it like this, everyone felt that they were extraordinarily lofty, and they didn't dare to ignore it.
As for Li Zicheng, his eyes lit up, and he obviously understood what Li Yan was going to say next.
Li Yan pondered for a moment, looked at everyone's expressions, relaxed slightly, and continued: "Since the strategy of breaking Kaifeng has been determined to besiege and trap death from the beginning, then the soldiers of Shandong Town have entered Kaifeng, isn't it fulfilling the wish of our army?" The field battle at Liuyuankou was indeed defeated. But it doesn't matter, Kaifeng City can be broken after all. Of course, there will also be generals who are suspicious and worried about the attack of the officers and troops. But this is no problem, our army has millions of soldiers and horses, besieging the city, digging trenches and setting up ambushes, is it possible that there are thousands of remnants trapped in the city? ”
"Since the strategic planning is still as expected, and the planning is moving forward, it is also smooth and unhindered. The battle of the party general at Liuyuankou was naturally unhindered. Li Yan smiled and said: "Could it be that the generals don't even have the confidence to besiege Kaifeng and kill troops in the city?" ”
As soon as Li Yan said this, the atmosphere in the venue suddenly changed slightly.
"In this way, I really think that the odds of Kaifeng have not changed!" Tian Jianxiu said with a smile, which made the atmosphere in the venue relax.
Seeing this, Liu Zongmin clapped his hands and shouted: "King Chuang, it's okay." This official army entered Kaifeng, but instead went to the grave. There is not much food in the city, and tens of thousands of people come to eat, so behold, this official army will soon run out of ammunition and food! ”
"When the time comes, this Kaifeng is not how to take it, how to take it?" The generals under King Chuang suddenly laughed.
Li Zicheng smiled, looking at the changes brought by Li Yan's words on the field, he was indescribably happy in his heart.
With a slight groan, Li Zicheng said again: "Mr. Li is right." Ladies and gentlemen, the odds of victory in this battle of Kaifeng are still in our hands. After Kaifeng, millions of mouths in the city can be used by our army. During this period, the mansion is beautiful, gold, silver, pearls and jade, all of which can be owned by our army. Such a grand event, do you want to follow me and get it with your own hands? ”
"Follow my brother to open the seal, of course it's done." Luo Rucai's smile slowly emerged: "I, Luo Rucai, have nothing to say!" ”
"Good!" Li Zicheng shouted, then turned his head to look at Yuan Shizhong on the side, and quietly brought a little edge in his smile, and said slowly: "What does little Yuan Ying mean?" ”
"It is incumbent upon you to follow King Chuang's command!" Yuan Shizhong pondered for a moment and said slowly.
Li Zicheng saw that his morale was picking up, and he immediately smiled and said, "Okay! My righteous army is so united, what is the reason why this Kaifeng is not broken? ”
Seeing this, everyone laughed.
On the side, Luo Ru saw this, and his heart suddenly felt a little surprised. Of course, he didn't really want to withdraw his troops, but wanted to ask for some benefits from Li Zicheng. After all, it was Luo Rucai's soldiers who were damaged this time.
But Li Zicheng pretended to be stupid, and Luo Rucai couldn't either. Thinking of this, Luo Rucai sighed with hatred in his heart, thinking to himself why didn't he have such smart subordinates under his command?
If he has the plan and ability to break the seal, then Li Zicheng and these people will not be the only ones who are looking ahead? (To be continued......)
