Chapter 412: The Two Lines Move Together
Chapter 412: Two Lines in Concert (Part I)
"What do you say? Qingfeng was assassinated eight times in Luoyang City in fifteen days? Li Qing's face showed a look of shock, and his concern was overflowing, "She's okay, right?" β
Ji Sichen smiled and said: "The director deliberately stimulated Yuan Fang in the Hanshan Pavilion, and sure enough, he immediately attracted these locusts, but the director had already taken precautions, which not only made Yuan Fang's efforts in vain, but also caused him to lose a lot of manpower in Luoyang. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"
A smile appeared on Li Qing's face, "Also, with Qingfeng's alertness, he will definitely not suffer." What she found proved our judgment to a certain extent. Even because of this, all the losses of our personnel in Luoyang are worth it. When will she come back? didn't succeed in Luoyang, but I was afraid that Yuan Fang would not take a break, and he needed to be more careful on the road. β
"Don't worry, Wang Qi also followed him to Luoyang, along the way, with his arrangement, there will be no problem." Ji Sichen said with a smile.
Li Qing pondered for a moment, "Be careful, it's not a big mistake, I asked Mingyan to send her special team to pick it up, and I must bring Qingfeng back safely." β
Ji Sichen bent down and said: "The marshal's care for the director, the director must be grateful for the five!" β
Li Qing was noncommittal, "I heard that Qingfeng handed over the matter of Xingzhou to you when he left?" Is there any progress? β
Ji Sichen frowned, "Sichen is ashamed, he has failed the expectations of the director and the marshal, and the subordinate has not made any progress in Xingzhou, and he has gained nothing." β
"Nothing is the biggest gain, imagine if Mr. Long is really an ordinary staff, even if he is intelligent, he doesn't need such strict protection and." Li Qing stood up, walked to the huge map in the study, and stared at the map of the Great Chu Territory for a long time.
"With the addition of Xingzhou, it seems that our plan will also change."
Waving his hand, he said, "You go down and bring Director Qingfeng back safely." β
"Yes, the lower official will retire!" Ji Sichen exited the study.
"Huzi, please come over Mr. Shang!" Li Qing commanded.
After the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the traditional New Year's Festival is over, the atmosphere of the New Year gradually fades, life gradually returns to a normal state, the atmosphere in Dingzhou begins to slowly become solemn again, large-scale army movements occur from time to time, and all the people know that after a year of recuperation, the war machine in Dingzhou has begun to operate again.
The intensity of reserve training in the villages and townships has suddenly increased, and the officers and soldiers who had been on leave have been urgently recruited one after another; taking advantage of this period of leisure before the spring ploughing, a large number of people have been quickly summoned in various localities to repair and strengthen the galloping roads, and the merchants and workshops in the two prefectures have received a large number of military orders in a short period of time, and these shops and workshops, which were already in the off-season, have immediately started work in an all-round way, and all kinds of military supplies have been continuously transported to the army.
The movement of Dingzhou immediately spread to all directions of Dachu with various channels, and everyone knew that Dingzhou was going to make a move, but in that direction, it was not yet certain, because at present, Dingzhou had heavy troops in the north and Quanzhou, whether it was to help the Xiao clan to curb the sweeping trend of King Ning in the south, or to take advantage of the fact that the Lu clan was stuck in the quagmire of war with the Zeng family in the east and send troops to the north, it was difficult to conclude for a while. Spies from major forces have poured into Dingzhou, mobilizing their own various channels to explore the direction of Dingzhou's troops.
At this time, Li Qing had secretly arrived in Luofeng and Changqi counties in Luzhou.
Two cavalry battalions and two infantry battalions of Jiang Kui, the Changsheng Division, and an infantry battalion led by Chen Zeyue were stationed in these two counties.
Luofeng County, Jiang Kui's Changsheng Division Headquarters Station, on the huge sand table, the red and blue flags mark the location of the Changsheng Division and the Luzhou soldiers, standing on the side of the sand table, at a glance.
Li Qing was standing on the edge of the sand table at this time, Tian Feng was holding a long rod in his hand, pointing out to Li Qing one by one to introduce the current deployment of the Changsheng Division and its various goals.
Listening to Tian Feng's introduction, Li Qing was very satisfied, he was worried that Jiang Kui was resistant to Tian Feng's arrival, but now it seems that he thinks too much, Jiang Kui is a simple general, he is quite clear about his own advantages and disadvantages, and his desire for victory is quite strong.
And Tian Feng did not shy away from suspicion at this time, and made considerable changes to Jiang Kui's original deployment, the two of them, one is simply eager for victory, eager for Jin Ge Iron Horse on the field, the other is grateful to Dade, eager to repay the favor, and at the same time has the intention of proving his value to the new master, but they hit it off, and they have a tacit understanding.
"Marshal, please see, opposite us, there are ten battalions of 50,000 soldiers and horses stationed in Luzhou, distributed in Chenxian, Kangxian, Moling, Sangzhu, and Suning, and we, after the Changsheng Division has been strengthened, there are a total of more than 30,000 combat soldiers and nearly 20,000 auxiliary combat personnel."
"I'm outnumbered!" Li Qing said with a smile.
Li Qing's words caused a burst of laughter in the war room, "Marshal, it's not that I underestimate the other party, after we occupied Luofeng and Changqi counties, Luzhou hurriedly expanded its army, and expanded to nearly 100,000 people at once on the basis of the original 20,000 standing army. Jiang Kui said with a smile.
"Ants bite elephants to death, don't be careless, the other party is fighting on the mainland, maybe this desire to defend their homeland can arouse their considerable combat effectiveness!" Li Qing reminded. "Tell me about your battle formation!"
Tian Feng nodded and said: "In view of the huge gap between the two sides in terms of combat effectiveness and the experience of large-scale battles, we have appropriately revised the original battle plan, changed the comprehensive occupation to a long-distance drive, concentrated forces to break through a little, and then left the enemy behind, and the army went straight to the city of Luzhou. β
Li Qing frowned slightly, "Then you are going to choose to break through there?" β
"Moling!" Tian Feng said, "Moling is the main force of the Luzhou soldiers, there are more than 20,000 people, Moling echoes Chen, Kang, Sang, Su, we go straight from here, directly cut the Luzhou soldiers into two, and then wave the army to Luzhou City." β
"What about the enemy forces in the other four counties?" Li Qing asked.
"In one fell swoop, the defenders across Moling will make the whole army of these four defenders frightened, in my opinion, they only have two choices, one is to stick to the county seat where they are stationed, and the other is to return to Luzhou and follow our ass to eat ashes." Speaking of this, the generals in the room laughed again, indeed, when it comes to the mobility of the two armies, it is not at the same level at all, not to mention that each combat soldier of the cavalry of the two battalions of the Changsheng Battalion Whirlwind Battalion is equipped with two horses, that is, in the two infantry battalions, they are also equipped with a large number of camels and carriages, just to improve the mobility of the army.
"You want to swallow Luzhou City in one bite?" Li Qing asked quietly.
Tian Feng shook his head, "No, Luzhou City doesn't need to fight, but the purpose of my long-distance drive is not for Luzhou City." β
Li Qing pointed to the other side of Luzhou City and said with a smile: "Your real purpose is to eat him?" β
"Not bad!" Tian Feng was also excited, "My target is the 20,000 cavalry of the Lu clan stationed on the border of Luzhou. Luzhou is tight, they will inevitably come to their aid, I just want to swallow him with lightning speed, eat him, Luzhou Xu Hongwei has nothing to do, except to surrender to us, I can't think of any better countermeasures with his character, so that we can exchange the greatest victory at the smallest cost, and at the same time knock out the first big obstacle to our attack on the north! β
"Good!" Li Qing applauded: "The plan is extremely perfect and thorough, but there is one thing I want to remind you, most of the 20,000 Lu cavalry stationed on the border of Luzhou are Sartre soldiers, and they are fierce and good at fighting, if you can't eat them in one bite, you will suffer a loss after a long-distance attack!" β
Jiang Kui smiled: "Dashuai, why don't you even trust the soldiers and horses you brought out?" In my opinion, there is no army in the world that is stronger than ours, and besides, in Lao Tian's plan, we are running long distances, aren't they coming from a long journey? The narrow road is suitable for the brave wins, and what the Dingzhou Army is best at fighting is this kind of battle that relies on willpower to win! β
"Yes, this is one of the bases for formulating this battle plan!" Tian Feng said with a smile: "For another unit, I don't dare to make such a crazy plan, I would rather follow the steps and complete the combat goal step by step!" β
Li Qing laughed, Tian Feng's inconspicuous sycophant just scratched his itch.
let the others exit the war room, and only Li Qing, Tang Hu, Tian Feng, and Jiang Kui were left in the room.
"Your battle plan is very good, beyond my expectations, originally I came this time to prepare to change the original battle plan, but I didn't expect you to do a good job!" Li Qing appreciated.
Jiang Kui and Tian Feng glanced at each other, and their eyes showed excitement.
"Originally, I wanted to let Dingzhou recuperate for two to three years, but the plan couldn't catch up with the changes, and recently we found some strange phenomena in the Central Plains battle situation, forcing us to change our previous strategy and send troops to the Lu clan in advance, and strive to take the north as quickly as possible." Li Qing paused. My mind involuntarily flashed the face that was a little blue and looked very tired during the Tai Chi Exhibition.
"Dashuai, what's wrong?" Jiang Kui asked in a low voice, Tian Feng on the side pulled his shirt without a trace, this kind of thing must be confidential, if the marshal wants to say it, he will definitely tell them, if he doesn't want to say it, you asked it will make the marshal embarrassed.
Sure enough, Li Qing smiled and didn't answer Jiang Kui's ballast.
"Your tactics are basically close to my strategic goals, I don't need to say more, when the war starts, I will come to Luo Feng to supervise the battle, so I will make it clear first, I just came to see, and I will never go to your command!" Li Qing said with a smile.
Tian Feng nodded knowingly. The marshal came to ensure that the back of the Chang Sheng Division was worry-free, in case one of the Luzhou generals in Chen, Liu, Sang, and Su was a madman, regardless of the fact that he attacked Luo Feng Changqi after the Chang Sheng Division left, although he might not be able to do anything to them, but the impact could not be ignored.
"There is another thing I have to tell you in advance, when the war begins, I will bring 10,000 cavalry of the Nuoqi department to you to use, but in addition, you will not have one more reinforcement, you will use these troops in your hands to sweep the north for me!" Li Qing slammed the table hard, and everything on it jumped up.
Jiang Tian and the others glanced at each other, their expressions solemn, "When will the war start?" β
Li Qing said word by word: "The spring is warming, the river is thawing, the eastern water division cooperates with Zeng's all-round counterattack, and when Quanzhou and Liaozhou entangle the opponent's main force, it will be the day when you will attack with all your might!" βroοΌ ~οΌ
