Chapter 134 crosses the border and goes north

In the tent of the Chinese army, the generals had different expressions, but they all frowned tightly, kept quiet, and listened to Wang Yu's strategy.

“…… That's pretty much it. After telling the conclusion of the discussion with Jia Xu, Wang Yu looked around and asked softly, "Everyone, what do you think?" ”

"I don't approve of it!" Before he finished speaking, Huang Zhong had already stood up, and seeing the appearance of the veteran's face was red, his voice trembled, and he was forced to suppress his emotions, he knew that he had endured it for a long time.

"The so-called: the people are not in the valley, I am alone, the people are harmed by military service and taxes, and they are already miserable, and the general will win or defeat by himself, and pull the unarmed people to the battlefield, how is this kind of behavior different from the national thief Dong Zhuo? The general said with benevolence and virtue that day, but today he ...... If the general insists on this, he will leave! ”

"Wait."

Wang Yu hurriedly stopped, and said, "Does Han Sheng really think that Yu will push thousands of people to death for his own selfishness?" If Yu really has this intention, why did he gather everyone to come and discuss? Wouldn't it be better to act in secret? You can't imagine how serious the consequences would be if the news leaked out, right? ”

Reputation, especially Wei Guangzheng's reputation, really can't be done once and for all. While speaking, Wang Yu also sighed secretly in his heart: Huang Zhong came because of benevolence and righteousness, if he used Jia Xu's strategy, the stubborn old man would turn his face with him;

Xu Huang came because of loyalty, if he was like Sun Jian, ignoring the name of righteousness and relying on force to grab territory everywhere, eighty percent would lose another general.

The Three Kingdoms era was a troubled time, but the more troubled times were, the more dazzling the belief became, and only those with strong beliefs would become truly powerful.

Just like the two generals under his command, he is also like Xu Rong.

Yu Ban and Jia Xu don't seem to have any principles of action, but if they have a deep understanding, they will know that these two people also have their own beliefs.

Jia Xu believes in self-preservation, as long as he can protect himself and the people around him, even if the whole world is flooded, he will not care, he is a pure egoist.

And Yu Ban's belief is the army, he is a pure soldier, learning the art of war, applying what he has learned, and creating the strongest army, this is his ideal.

Relatively speaking, the latter two are easier to serve, and the first two are very troublesome, but fortunately, these two are reasonable, that is, it takes a little more to talk about it.

Listening to Wang Yu's words, Huang Zhong really hesitated: "What the general means ......"

"Just brainstorming."

Wang Yu pressed Huang Zhong's shoulder and said, "Soldiers, life and death are also!" In the face of a strong enemy, finding out the opponent's weaknesses and taking advantage of them is the right way to war. At present, based on all aspects of intelligence, Xu Rong's weakness is only this one, that is, his benevolence and righteousness! If we turn a blind eye, is it fair to the whole army? Is it fair to people who have been forced to leave their homes? ”

He asked himself and answered, "No, of course it's not fair!" This war was not provoked by a certain person, and the meaning was not the same as that of the princes attacking each other and fighting for territory. The purpose of the war is to prevent Dong thieves from continuing to cause trouble in the world, so that Sili Prefecture can restore tranquility, and the people can live and work in peace and contentment again! So, this battle must be won! Even if there is a certain amount of sacrifice to be made for it. ”

"Brother Hansheng, you must know that if the people are constantly on the move, the hunger, cold and plague will also take their lives, and many people will die, and they will die in other places, which is also not what they want. Therefore, the most straightforward way is to defeat Xu Rong and recapture Luoyang City! ”

Wang Yu used a common sophistry technique in later generations, no matter what the topic or what he did, as long as he finally expressed his determination and said how patriotic he was, he could divert the listener's attention.

This trick has been used too much in later generations, and it is no longer very easy to use, but in the Three Kingdoms era, it still has some effect.

Huang Zhong began to stand straight, without the slightest intention of compromise, and when Wang Yu finished a few words, when he used a little force in his hand, the resistance he felt was not so strong, and Huang Zhong was pressed down by him.

"However, let the people be the ...... to rush forward"

Wang Yu raised his finger to the sky, and said with a solemn face: "I will swear to the sky, even if the mountains and rivers are exhausted, I will not use such cruel means to win, otherwise, heaven and earth will hate it!" ”

Swear to heaven that there will be no market in the future generations, and it is a very solemn promise in this era. With this trick, Huang Zhong's anger was completely calmed, he stood up again, and said with a face full of shame: "I misunderstood the general's meaning, and I am offended, please General Haihan." ”

"It's okay, Ben is also Ben will not be clear enough." Wang Yu breathed a sigh of relief, he finally had a good reputation, and he could start to deliberate on the plan.

"The general thinks that there are many advantages to releasing the wind and bringing the people north, one of which is that it can strengthen the momentum, our army has few soldiers, if the lone army goes north, not only the momentum is insufficient, but also in the Sili Prefecture of Pingchuan, it is difficult to cover the back road, Xu Rongjun has a lot of cavalry, and his means of using troops are high, in case he robs our army's grain route, it will be a disaster!"

Luoyang has been a place of four wars since ancient times, and it is a place that is easy to attack and difficult to defend, in addition to its geographical location in the center of the Central Plains, the surrounding terrain is also very problematic.

The terrain here is flat and the water network is dense, with the Yellow River, Yishui, Luoshui, and Gushui ...... There are as many as seven or eight rivers that can be called great rivers, and even if it is only on one front, there is far more than one route that can be used to advance troops.

Therefore, Luoyang can easily fall into a situation of being besieged. The defender cannot predict the direction of the enemy's main attack, so they can only deploy their defenses everywhere and spread their strength, and it is easy to fall into a dilemma.

The terrain is not biased, and whoever uses it well can cause trouble for the enemy.

At present, the siege of the alliance has collapsed, and the Xiliang army only needs a small number of soldiers and horses to garrison in other directions, and can concentrate all its strength to deal with Wang Yu, so the geographical advantage has become advantageous to Xu Rong.

If Wang Yu rashly marched, just maintaining the supply line would be a big problem. Yu Ban used the county soldiers as combat soldiers, which certainly increased the strength of the Taishan Army, but the Taishan Army also had no auxiliaries.

"If the auxiliary army is insufficient, it is necessary to levy the people's husband, instead of forcibly recruiting the people's husbands into the army, it is better to stimulate the people's home**, let them take the initiative to join, and our army can also use this as a reason to reward the people with food and grass, so as not to be

Isn't it a way to kill two birds with one stone? ”

Debate can indeed bring out true knowledge, when the military discussion began, Wang Yu didn't expect so much, but when he was at a loss, he took out Jia Xu's plan to see if it could inspire everyone and produce some new sparks.

As a result, in the process of persuading Huang Zhong, before others spoke, he himself found more and more benefits and persuaded himself first.

"If Xu Gongqing is indeed a person who puts benevolence first, the benefits of our army doing so are not only that, but the benevolence of the lord may have an impact on his belief and make him waver. Even if the effect is not so ideal, it can make him have some scruples and can't bear to raid our army's food route, so that our army can draw more troops to the front line. In addition......"

Yu Ban is Wang Yu's old subordinate in the end, the first confidant, and the beat is very tight, he followed Wang Yu's words, and said a lot of benefits, some of which Wang Yu didn't even expect.

However, in the end, he changed his words and asked: "But the lord, Xu Gongqing has the idea of benevolence and righteousness, and takes into account the safety of the people, so he is held hostage by Dong Thief, this is just Hu Lingjun's relay, what the real situation is, it is not yet known, in case there is a fallacy in it......"

"Wen Ze is right."

Xu Huang echoed and said: "The lord has this policy, and all his hopes are pinned on Xu Gongqing's thoughts, if the rumors are wrong, it will be a disaster for our army to implement this policy." According to Hu Lingjun, that Xu Gongqing's character is difficult to understand, and there are many conflicts with each other...... Could it be that General Huangfu's judgment was wrong? ”

As he spoke, he glanced at Huang Zhong intentionally or unintentionally, in his opinion, this older colleague was the invincible military general who believed in benevolence.

I have to say that this concept is quite anachronistic, so Huang Zhong is only a tun chief at such an age.

And Xu Rong used his troops ruthlessly and steadily, and he couldn't see pedantry and hesitation at all.

It has been three months since he completely annihilated Sun Jian in Liang County, but until now, Sun Jian has not even gathered the remnants of Yicheng, what does this mean? Xu Rong's pursuit was very efficient, and he did not withdraw his troops until he completely broke up Sun Jian's troops, and in this process, Sun Jian's army's casualty rate was not ordinarily large.

After Cheng Gao defeated Cao Cao, Xu Rong's pursuit had no merciless intentions; Surprise attack on Tiger Prison Pass, more than half of the Yuzhou army has been killed and wounded in the city, if it weren't for this, Kong Ling, the assassin of the history, would not have died in the chaos.

"Gongming, Wen Ze, your concerns, I will have also considered ......"

According to Jia Xu's original plan, there was not much of a problem in this regard, Jia Xu's plan was not to march with the people, but to face the battle in the place where the people gathered, and then unexpectedly launch the people to rush into battle, so that Xu Rong could not avoid it.

If Xu Rong's character is as Huangfu Song said, if he does not use swords against the people, the Taishan army can take advantage of the chaos of Xu Rong's army to launch a fierce attack and defeat the enemy in one fell swoop.

If Huangfu Song's judgment is wrong, taking advantage of the entanglement between the other party and the people, the Taishan army can retreat and find a good strategy.

This is the style of the poisoner, leaving no room for error, no flaws!

But Wang Yu really can't do this kind of thing, he is not pedantic, but he has indeed crossed his bottom line by driving the people to death in front of his eyes.

This kind of thing is too cruel, even if Xu Rong is unwilling to hurt the people, but after the Taishan army is killed, there will be a fierce battle, even if Sun Wu is resurrected, it is impossible to control the situation. Regardless of the victory or defeat of the two armies, the people will suffer heavy casualties.

So, he changed his plan, retaining one part of the psychological warfare and removing the most brutal part.

Strictly speaking, this trick is not his originality, in the Three Kingdoms era in the previous life, someone did this.

That's right, the initiator is Uncle Liu Huang!

On the eve of Chibi, before Cao Cao's large-scale southern expedition, Liu Bei abandoned Xinye and fled south with the people. Wang Yu had no way of knowing what Liu Bei thought about at that time, but the effect was similar to what he expected.

Although Cao Jun had no idea of benevolence and righteousness, nor was he soft-hearted, the people of Xinye still became Liu Bei's cover, allowing him to successfully delay time, and waited until Guan Yu brought the Jiangxia Navy to support, and finally escaped from the danger.

Liu Bei can only use the people as a cover, because Cao Cao is already ruthless, he has done a lot of things like slaughtering cities and trapping prisoners, and he will not let go of the opportunity to annihilate Liu Bei for the sake of the people.

However, if Xu Rong is really as Huangfu Song said, the people will be of great use, even if they are not used to rush into battle, they can form an opportunity to win! As for whether Huangfu Song's judgment is correct or not, how to explain the contradictions......

Wang Yu has already made an inference, and he doesn't dare to say 100%, but it should be quite close to the facts.

"General Ben believes that General Huangfu's judgment is correct, the key is still faith and inheritance!"

"Legacy?" All the generals were stunned, only Jia Xu smiled and said nothing, people who were not very familiar with him couldn't find the look of surprise in his eyes at all.

"Yes, Legacy!" Wang Yu was very excited, he finally sorted out all the clues, the true face of Lushan, who was like a strong enemy, had already revealed the tip of the iceberg!

"Pursue benevolence, but on the battlefield he uses soldiers like gods, and kills decisively...... Well, regard a certain person, as well as the two generals Sun and Cao, as well as Kong Yuzhou as enemies of life and death...... Among the many traditions in China, there is only one lineage that meets these characteristics...... Unexpectedly, the concept of the pre-Qin hundred schools can be inherited to this day! ”

"Could it be ......" Huang Zhong stood up in shock, his eyes widened, this was really an unimaginable answer.

"Love, non-attack, Shangxian, Shangtong, thrift, non-life, Ming ghost, Tianzhi!"

A series of nouns, like the morning bell and dusk drums sounding in the Chinese military tent, this is what Wang Yu knows, among the sons of the pre-Qin Dynasty, there is a lineage of inheritance with a pivotal position!

"Stop fighting with war, that's why he regards Ben as the enemy of life and death! Because, he thinks that Ben will start a war! ”

Wang Yu's eyes flashed with strange light, and he said word by word: "Non-offensive ink, only they can create a famous general like Xu Gongqing!" ”

He raised his hand and waved his hand, and raised his voice to order: "Pass my general, the whole army will be drawn immediately, act according to the plan, and fight Xu Rong!" ”

"Whoa!" The generals no longer have any doubts, and they are ready to respond! (To be continued)
