Regarding the movements of the Yellow Turban Army, Li Yi naturally will not be ignorant. In fact, the people of the Shadow Group had already penetrated into the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army and passed the information back.
The war is about to begin, and Li Yi calls Gongsun Chan to discuss the next action.
After introducing the information he had found to Gongsun Zhan, after hearing this, Gongsun Chan asked with a solemn expression: "Pengfei, how should I fight in this situation?" ”
"Brother Bo Jue, what do you think?" Li Yi asked without answering.
"There are too many poor troops, this battle is not easy to fight, but the Pengfei army is slightly unparalleled, there should be a way, according to Zhan's opinion......" Gongsun Zhan's face was embarrassed, but he did not shirk, pointed to the center of the map and said, "There are too many ant thieves here in Linzi, they don't move, they definitely can't fight, the first priority now should be to prevent them from becoming more ......"
He pointed to Bochang's location and said: "I plan to lead the army of my headquarters to attack, and pull along the line from Changguo and Banyang to Bochang, so that the moth thieves in Jinan and Le'an will continue to assemble in Linzi." Pengfei's soldiers and horses in Beihai can also follow this situation, cut them off first. If the ant thief can't hold it back, and divides the troops to intercept and kill, there will be a chance to break it. ”
Gongsun Chan is not good at conspiracies, but his insight in military strategy is not bad, and the focus of his strategy is not to intercept, but to build momentum. With the mobility of the light cavalry under his command, 10,000 cavalry was enough to form an encirclement network and cut off Linzi from the outside world. It feels as if there are countless soldiers and horses surrounding, so as to shake the military heart of the Linzi Yellow Turban.
If the Yellow Turban ignores it, shakes the morale of the army, and cuts off the results of the backup, it is also acceptable. Anyway, the Yellow Turban Army is moving slowly, and if it maintains this state all the way from Linzi to Fenggao, it is likely to collapse halfway.
If the yellow scarf is not enough, divide the troops and invite the attack, the killing opportunity of this strategy will be revealed, and each one will be broken.
The Yellow Turbans are a rabble, and if they suffer successive crushing defeats, their morale will fall to the extreme, and they will collapse as well.
This strategy is very powerful. The combat power of the light cavalry has been brought into full play, and Gongsun Chan must have been carefully considered.
"It's a good idea, but so-and-so has other plans." While speaking, Li Yi watched the change in Gongsun Zhan's expression.
"Pengfei really has another trick, and I want to hear about it." Gongsun Chan was not disappointed, but asked about Li Yi's plans with great interest.
"I can't say anything about the trick, but I have some concerns and thoughts...... First of all. I plan to use this big battle to completely solve Qingzhou. So there's no need to stop thieves everywhere. Secondly, this gathering of thieves and robbers has an extremely complex background, and more importantly, there are people with ill intentions behind the scenes to give advice to the Yellow Turban Army. ”
"This ...... That's tricky. Gongsun Chan rubbed his hands together and pondered for a moment. In the end, he gave up, "Zan can't think about it, so he can only listen to Pengfei's instructions." ”
If only by relying on the big bosses of the Yellow Turban Army, Gongsun Chan can crush them in terms of IQ, but if there are other people behind the scenes, they can give advice to the Yellow Turban Army. Gongsun Chan doesn't have this self-confidence. In such a situation, the most he can do is to help out, and he wants to fight wits with others, but Gongsun Chan is not so blind.
The tactics of the White Horse Yicong are strong when they are weak, and their performance on the frontal battlefield is also average, if they encounter the kind of enemy that cannot be killed, they can only slip away.
Hard rushing is to fight for consumption, not to mention that the yellow scarf has more than one million, even if it shrinks ten times, Bai Ma Yicong can't afford to fight, even counting the foot soldiers, how many people are there under his command?
In the face of this kind of enemy, Gongsun Zhan's various strategies to defeat obviously could not work. The reason why he dared to say that each one was broken was just because of the characteristics of Bai Ma Yicong's free gathering and scattering, and all kinds of surprise attacks.
If you encounter a situation like Guan Hai, you will naturally be invincible, and once you can't make a surprise attack, you will fall into the position of the superior enemy, and you won't be able to run.
The two armies combined are only 16,000 horsemen, can they withstand a few mistakes?
Li Yi said: "My idea is to let them assemble and then let them go......
"Put it in the territory of Tarzan?" Gongsun Chan was stunned.
Lure the enemy deeper, wait for the enemy's food and grass to be cut off, and then counterattack, Gongsun Chan has also thought of this method, but he is a guest army, of course, he can't make this kind of suggestion casually.
"Hmm." Li Yi nodded.
Gongsun Zan said puzzledly: "Peng Fei wants to snipe in Laiwu?" However, if there are really masters in the enemy's army, they will definitely not waste time under Laiwu City, with Pengfei's prestige, even if they are ant thieves, they must have heard of it. ”
"So, let them in." Li Yi smiled slightly, compared it on the map, and said, "Laiwu is the gate, and when they come in, they just close the door and beat the dog." ”
"......" Gongsun Zhan didn't make a sound for a long time, and after a while, he raised his head, his face full of shock, "Pengfei, do you want to use less than 20,000 troops to deal with the main force of more than 1 million yellow turbans?" ”
Li Yi smiled: "Of course not, I still have backup." ”
Gongsun Chan was even more puzzled and said, "Backup? Where does the backup come from? Although Pengfei still has 200,000 troops in northern Xinjiang, northern Xinjiang is thousands of miles away from Qingzhou, and far water can't quench your thirst. ”
Li Yi smiled mysteriously and said, "Far water can't quench your thirst, but what about the water right in front of you?" ”
"Pengfei, you mean that your army has arrived in Qingzhou?" Gongsun Zhan's eyes widened and he asked in disbelief.
Li Yi said: "Brother Boqi, let me sell this matter first, anyway, you and I in Taishan's army, as long as we are responsible for blocking the frontal attack of the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans and preventing them from breaking through our blockade line." ”
"Pengfei has a life, Zhan naturally doesn't dare to refuse, but ......" Gongsun Zhan can see that Li Yi is going to come to the real thing, he just wants to try to defeat the main force of the Yellow Turban, and then surround the Yellow Turban to death near Laiwu, and then appease it.
The strategic conception is no problem, and it is also very thoughtful, once it is successful, Qingzhou will be peaceful.
There is only one question, how could he use 20,000 soldiers to break through millions of yellow turbans? Although Li Yi may have a strange army in Qingzhou, in Gongsun Zhan's mind, the scale of this strange army will definitely not be too much.
However, according to the current momentum, when the Yellow Turbans attack Mount Tai, I am afraid that there will not be more than 1.5 million people, excluding the old and weak, women and children, but there will be 500,000 soldiers in battle. Well, if the enemy is lenient, I am afraid that there will be no more than one million!
Can everyone in the Northern Frontier Army defeat one against one hundred?
Li Yi saw Gongsun Zhan's doubts, he spread his hands and said: "I know that Brother Bo Qi is very confused, but I can't explain to you how to fight now, I have to wait for the time to analyze the actual situation and analyze it specifically......
I haven't thought about it yet, so I'll fight it first...... Gongsun Chan suddenly had the feeling of being on the wrong thief ship.
You may not die in a war, and you may be able to win in a daze, but if you are not brave enough, you are likely to be scared to death before the battle.
Gongsun Chan has not followed Li Yi on the thief ship, over the years, he has also fought many battles with Li Yi, many times with weak forces against strong enemies, and every time he has won. But Gongsun Chan had to admit that in every previous war, the disparity in strength was not as great as this one.
Gongsun Chan didn't know if Li Yi would still be able to win this time.
………………
At the beginning of June of the first year of Zhongping, the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army was allied under Linzi City.
After the deliberation of many commanders of the Yellow Turban Army, it was decided to leave a partial division to continue to besiege Linzi City, and the main force marched west to Taishan County to attack the combined forces of Li Yi, the hussar general located here, and Sun Zhan, the Taishou of Hejian Guotai.
As the eastern gateway of Taishan County, Laiwu City ushered in the attack of the Yellow Turban Army for the first time.
The offensive and defensive battle of Laiwu City began.
"Throw the log!"
With a command, the soldiers defending the city lowered their crossbows, lifted the log from behind the battlements, and smashed it down the ladder.
Huge logs bounced and rolled on the ladder, whizzing down.
The ladders of the Yellow Turban Army were all rushed, and they didn't even have time to scrape off the bark, which was not so smooth, causing some trouble for the soldiers who climbed the ladders and the rolling logs.
But that's all, a little ditch can't stop the huge momentum of the rolling log.
A wail sounded one after another from below the city, and the soldiers who were trying to climb and the soldiers who were holding the ladder below were knocked down, and the fierce attack suddenly stopped.
"Hook up!"
The order was repeated, and there was no emotion in his tone, as if it came from some inanimate being, but it was unusually timely and deadly.
Duwei Wangmen led a thousand Gongsun troops to guard Laiwu City.
As if stepping on the beat of the order, at the same time as the order was issued, several Gongsun army foot soldiers put down the rolling wood in their hands, picked up the hook behind the battlement, hooked the end of the ladder, roared, and pulled hard along the direction of the city wall.
Lacking human support, the improvised ladder couldn't hold the city wall, and slowly fell in the direction of the hook, knocking down a large part of the Yellow Turban Army under the city.
"Put it on the nail shoot!"
The pace is not rushed, it is just right.
The soldiers of the Gongsun Army put down the iron hook and operated another killing weapon.
"Whoa!" This is a veritable killing weapon, in the exclamation of the yellow turban under the city, several thick wooden planks more than five feet long and more than two feet wide roared down from the city with the sound of iron chains colliding.
The condescending momentum is already terrifying, and the dense iron nails on the wooden board are even more shocking!
The Yellow Turban soldiers, who were holding the crashing wood made of giant trees, trying to take advantage of the defenders' concentration on dealing with their companions who were attacking the city, and were trying to make some trouble on the city gate, were caught off guard by the nails and smashed into the dense queue, and before they could even let out a miserable howl, more than a dozen people fell down.
The remaining people were frightened, but their strength was also insufficient, and they couldn't hold the huge ram unsteadily, and the ram fell to the ground, and the city gate also fell into a crowd of people on their backs.
"Shoot the arrows!"
At the beginning of the siege, the Yellow Turban army was quite well organized, with some raising shields, some carrying ladders, rams, and archers...... There were several rounds of salvos that seemed to have the appearance of a regular army. (To be continued.) )
