Chapter 115 Practical Application of Art of War 1

"I hate these robbers the most. They don't have the courage at all."

In the big account, Ma Chao sighed and said: I originally thought that those thieves who dared to attack the exchange either took the wrong medicine or got into their minds. But after acting in the morning, Ma Chao found that the thieves were not tricked, which made Ma Chao very injured.

In this dispatch, Ma Chao, in order to be quick, brought 3,000 Xiliang iron cavalry veterans and more than 7,000 captured recruits. The remaining soldiers stayed in Fufeng County. After all, Han Sui is coming, and maybe he will rob Fufeng County with one shot. At that time, even if Han Ying and Yan Xing are killed to vent their anger, the base is gone, and it is still useless.

Of course, it is very unlikely that Han Sui will dare to attack Fufeng County. But Ma Chao did not dare to take this risk - the lesson of Li Kan and Cheng Yin has not been long gone by - Besides, Han Sui did not move, and other thieves were red-eyed. Fufeng County has long become a favorite in the eyes of the two states of Yongliang and Sili.

That's good. Those sons of the Qiang nationality have gone back. After acting in a play, You Chu also went back. I had to play with those thieves slowly.

Hard attack?

Ma Chao shook his head, which is not his style. Besides, if you attack the city with cavalry, even if you attack it, the loss is not what you want to see: the courage of the man is always the best strategy, which is more than enough to deter, but it is not enough to control tens of thousands of people.

In particular, killing a thousand enemies and destroying 800, not to mention using cavalry to attack the city, which is a brain-damaged practice of destroying a thousand...

Therefore, a planned siege can not only cultivate the overall view of their subordinates. It can also be more effective to deter Han Sui and convince You Chu.

Of course, this may also cause your subordinates to change in a more sinister way.

However, Ma Chao likes it. As a result, those bigwigs were pulled to the meeting by Ma Chao.

Except for Jia Fox, Yang Fu is the one who knows the art of war best. Yang Fu also lived up to expectations and said a lot of old and cunning meanings, and the central point of view was: knowing yourself and your enemy, and you will not be defeated in a hundred battles.

Yang Fu's first sentence is like this: "If you want to do a good job, you must first use your tools. If he wants to get the city, he must first take advantage of the gap to enter it. If you want to get the city, you must know that the situation in the city is not good. If you want to know the situation of the city, how can non-spionage get it? If you win, you will win more, and if you lose, you will lose more. In the meantime, there is nothing else.

Ma Chao translated this literary and cyan words with everyone and estimated that Yang Fu's general meaning is: If you want to attack the city, you have to know what the thieves in the city are all about. Therefore, first send someone to scout and spy to see what kind of foot they have, and then analyze the specific situation, grab his painful foot, and hit him hard, and the chance of winning is relatively large.

Since Yang Fu said this, Ma Chao had no other way, so he ordered the army to camp and rest for the time being. Brother Chou quietly led his shadow to investigate the information of Xinping County. Thanks to Ma Chao's arrangement of manpower in Xinping and Beidi counties as early as a month ago, and now he is just passing on information. I believe that those shadows who have been instructed by themselves will have a lot of solutions.

After the order was conveyed, Ma Chao began to analyze the advantages and disadvantages of the enemy and us. This time, although Ma Chao was unintentional, this move was a necessary topic for the military generals of the Western Liang Ma family before the war. This battle was also absorbed as a classic case by the military training center for those low-level officers to study and discuss in the future.

"The advantage of thieves is that there are many people, high walls, city defense equipment and other advantages. Moreover, his leader also has some military vision. Pound first said these obvious situations and continued to say, "And their disadvantage is that the military discipline is disorder, people are panicked, and their combat effectiveness is not high. And most of them are from exiles and are not familiar with the battle of defending the city.

"And the advantage of our army is exactly the opposite of the bandits, but the disadvantage is also obvious, that is, our army is cavalry. If it is used in the siege, it will suffer heavy losses." Ma Chao concluded that there seems to be no need to analyze this point. The most urgent thing is to see if Yang Fu has any good ideas.

"All warriors will win with righteousness and surprise. When the army fights against the enemy, the place where they fight and the day when the division comes will be predicted. Knowing the battlefield and the day of war, those who are prepared can make the enemy come as scheduled. And the city is strong, and the city has a lot of defense. If you know its benefits, you will win more.

Yang Fu's second sentence is actually not as good as the first sentence. In fact, since Ma Chao crossed over, he has never fought a dignified regular battle. Either play conspiracy or use tricks, which is very much in line with the key points of winning in the military book.

After discussing for half a day, everyone carefully reviewed the essentials that need to be paid attention to in the siege. Although there is more in mind, there is still no substantial progress.

It was the shadow of the ugly brother that finally broke this deadlock. Because they brought back a vital message: there is a shortage of food in the city!

Ma Chao thinks so. It's less than June now. The old grain has almost been eaten, and the new grain has not been harvested yet. And Xinping County is not as rich as Fufeng County. After 20,000 thieves came, how can there be so much food for those thieves to eat?

After hearing the news, everyone's eyes lit up. Especially Ma Chao and Fa Zheng, whose eyes are as bright as light bulbs.

Ma Chao found the strangeness of Fazheng. He waited for Fazheng's Mao to recommend himself and make suggestions, but when Ma Chao saw Fazheng, Fazheng was upright and endured.

Fa is managing military discipline for Liu Bei in history. How can he not understand the art of war and can't fight? Especially the previous move, it is clearly a manifestation of an idea in mind. And he didn't say it in the end, obviously to see how Ma Chao took advantage of the pain of the enemy.

'This little sample! How dare you underestimate our Majia Group!' Ma Chao hated it very much, but he didn't show it on his face. Fa Zheng's psychology, he completely figured out: 'This boy still has a grudge about kidnapping him. He deliberately showed his hand before sending troops, but now he stopped talking. Obviously, I want to see the ability of Majia Group!

Arrogant, arrogant. But this is also good, this time deliberately neglecting him. Let him know the power of the Majia Group. In the future, as long as he gradually dilutes and marginalizes him, this boy will think that his ability has been insulted and will definitely work hard to show himself!

After the plan was agreed, Ma Chao immediately said the ideas in his mind. At the same time, let everyone visit. However, people have different perspectives and naturally perfect all the defects and loopholes. In less than an hour, the plan against the group of thieves in Xinping County was newly released.

And the law beside him is a little dumbfounded. During this hour, he just listened quietly. But the more they heard, the more shocked they became: this group of people seemed to have the talent for conspiracy and trickery, and everyone's words were key and targeted. And when you make up for those loopholes and do it perfect and fake, the beads of your eyes will shine!

'These demons... Those poor bandits in Xinping County, you can rest in peace.' Fa Zheng sighed in his heart: 'These tricks are not said to be some thieves. Even if you hadn't heard it with your own ears, I'm afraid you would have fallen into it!'

For a while, Fa Zheng regretted his previous reservedity. Because he found that these people don't need themselves at all and can come up with an impeccable plan, even much more perfect than his own plan!

Finally, Fa Zheng saw the young man in brocade showing that strange smile to him, and his heart was full of regret.
