Chapter Eighty-Nine: Attacking Heziwan (1)
Qin Shuhuai summoned Pigou, Lai San'er, and Zhang Xiao to hold a pre-war meeting together. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Zhang Xiao quickly laid out a simple deduction sand table with stones, and then pointed to the sand table and said, "Judging from the topography of Heziwan, the entrances of the east and west passages are small, and if the entrance can be sealed, it can form a trend of closing the door and beating dogs, so there are likely to be ambushes near the entrance." In addition, in the middle of the dock and the yard, a large number of goods are scattered and piled up, and it is also a good place for ambushes. Therefore, if I were the main commander of the other side, I would definitely set up an ambush at the entrance of the two passages and behind the cargo in the middle section, and when the enemy's large group of men and horses entered the middle section, I would adopt the tactic of flanking from both sides and splitting the surprise attack in the middle. In addition, there are three large ships docked on the dock, and the big ships are not allowed to leave the port at this time, presumably not goods, but people. The men on the big ship are likely to be in reserve, and when the two sides are engaged, they will advance as a surprise army, and they will be the opponent's winner. ”
Qin Shuhuai glanced at Zhang Xiao in surprise, this guy seems to be a little too professional, not like a gangster, but like a soldier from the army. Unlike Leather Dog, who is good at attacking tactics, this person seems to be more adept at arranging troops.
It seems that you have to check his details when you go back, and if it is reliable, it will be as simple as letting him bring one in the future.
The leather dog looked at the sand table, pondered for a while, and added, "The goods in the middle section are piled very high, and the position seems to be scattered but there is a faint appearance of flowers in the middle and all around, the other party should set up archers at the center point, and others use the goods as a cover to protect the archers." If the archer is equipped in the middle section, then the opponent really wants to fight us in the middle section. In addition, judging from the fact that they are equipped with about fifty archers on the yard stones, the opponent should not have less than a hundred archers here, and then calculate the number of their horse infantry, the total number should not be less than five hundred. ”
Qin Shuhuai frowned deeply after hearing this, so it would be difficult to fight.
It's not easy for Qinglongtang to have this kind of family background, so it can't all be spent here, right? No matter how strong he is, he is still a mortal in the flesh, and he can't deal with so many people.
After thinking about it, he lacked experience in this area, so he didn't want a layman to command an insider, so it was better to let Zhang Xiao and Pigou worry about it, so he asked again, "Then how are you going to fight?"
Zhang Xiao said first, "If the other party wants to fight a decisive battle in the middle of the dock and the yard, we must not fall into the trap." According to the subordinates, the other party is still docked at the dock, and there should be more troops, so the yard should be used as a breakthrough. Our whole team was divided into two echelons, and all of them entered from the road where the yard was located. After the first echelon entered, part of it guarded the entrance, and some of it quickly dispersed to search near the entrance, and after finding the ambush, the second echelon quickly followed up to encircle and annihilate the opponent's ambush, and then the crossbowmen quickly seized the high point to form a suppression. If the ambush soldiers on the opponent's dock and in the middle come to their rescue, we will start a decisive battle with them on the spot. ”
Qin Shuhuai bowed slightly, and asked again, "What if the other party abandons the ambush in the yard?"
Zhang Xiao thought for a moment and said, "If they give up the ambush in the yard, it will take a lot of effort." If the incense lord wants to minimize the losses, as long as he can find a way to destroy their three big ships, he can use the tactics of besieging but not attacking. They must not be able to bring much grain and grass with them. And under normal circumstances, the grain is stored in the yard, and if they didn't expect us to besiege and not attack, they might not even bring a day's food. ”
Zhang Xiao considered this matter from a strategic point of view, which is understandable.
But Qin Shuhuai didn't have so much time to wait, not for a day. Because their goal is not just this pier.
So he asked the dog, "What do you see?"
The leather dog smiled gloomily and said, "The big ship is made of wood, and the goods on the dock are covered with wooden boxes, and maybe the goods themselves are flammable, so ......"
After hearing this, Zhang Xiao immediately patted his head and said, "That's right, we can attack with fire!" As long as we knock out the big ship and the archers in the middle section, it will be easy to do!"
"We only brought a strong crossbow with us, and a strong crossbow can't launch rockets." However, after the Battle of Ishibashi, we killed most of the archers of the opposing side, and captured more than 30 intact bows and more than 100 still working arrows. If you go get some more oil, you're done. ”
Qin Shuhuai smiled slightly after hearing this, and immediately said to Lai San'er, "Lai San'er, the matter of getting the oil will be handed over to you." Also, go get some clippers, it's okay to be small, the faster the better, so that you can get close to their big boats. ”
Lai San'er couldn't interject, squatted on the ground depressed for a long time, and immediately got up and said as soon as he heard this, "Lord..... don't worry, I will definitely get it!"
As soon as I was happy, I almost shouted out "Lord", but fortunately, I remembered that there was still Zhang Xiao here, so I quickly swallowed it back.
If it is the owner of incense, it is based on the title that everyone is loyal to the Jianghe Gang. But to be called "Lord" means that he is purely loyal to Qin Shuhuai.
Zhang Xiao has only been in Qinglongtang for more than a month, although Qin Shuhuai has already trusted him to bring one, but after all, people's hearts are unpredictable, and some things naturally don't let him know.
Lai San'er immediately went out of the door, and immediately personally took seven or eight of his subordinates to ride fast horses back to Wuqing to divide the rudder and ask for fire oil and fast boats.
The Wuqing rudder is not far from the opposite bank, more than 30 miles away, and the fast horse can reach it in half an hour. As for coming back, it will be faster, and if you take a clipper, you can cross the river directly, and you don't have to go around, so that when he has everything ready, it will take an hour and a half at most.
Qin Shuhuai simply did not miss this hour and a half, and ordered the brigade to stand by and wait for the fire oil and the speeder to arrive before fighting.
Lai San'er's efficiency is still very high, and in less than an hour and a half, he has found all these things, and he also brought Qin Shuhuai a good news, he has another twenty crossbowmen from Wuqing.
Qin Shuhuai immediately changed his mind when he heard this, he was going to send small boats to burn those big ships first when the attack was launched, anyway, no matter whether the Cao Gang came to save the yard or not, the existence of those ships was a threat.
After explaining to Lai San like this, Lai San'er immediately responded to the order and took people to prepare to go.
The sky is already bright, the sun is rising in the east, and the reflection on the river is extremely gorgeous.
Qin Shuhuai sat on the war horse, stared ahead with his eyes, and said in a deep voice, "Attack!"
The first echelon was led by Zhang Xiao with about 100 people, holding a big shield, and slowly advancing.
After entering the yard from a not wide road, there was no one to stop the way.
The second echelon quietly followed.
After all the C-shaped fans entered the yard, they immediately began to search for ambushes with ten people as a unit. Near the entrance to the yard passage, there are three warehouses and two row houses, where the ambush soldiers should be hiding if nothing else.
However, when I searched all these places, I found that there was no one.
After learning of the situation, Qin Shuhuai was unmoved, and asked the troops to continue the search, and never go further without finding the ambush.
He believes in the judgment of Pigou and Zhang Xiao, and he trusts his own judgment even more. As a manager, you must not shake your established strategy at this time, unless the situation forces you to change.
A group of ambush soldiers, not one person, and there is only such a small place in the yard, it is not so difficult to find out.
