Chapter 427 Absolute Strength 7

There is a cloud in the art of war: ten are surrounded, five are attacked, and double is divided. According to the total strength of Tuoba Shanye, which is 14 times that of Li Xian, it should be the best policy to besiege Li Xian's troops. However, Tuoba Shanye did not do so. They did not seek the opportunity to fight with Li Xian at all. Instead, the 73,000 troops strictly guarded this array and guarded the clan firmly and young, and strictly guarded them to death. The posture of defense has given Li Xian a constant response to changes. He is not seeking meritoriousness, but seeking no fault, and being steady is the victory. As soon as this formation situation comes out, Li Xian is quite hesitant - a strong attack? Of course, the elite riders of the 5,000 Tang army are elite, but they are not so elite that they can be able to walk with one. If a fighter is really accidentally caught by Tuoba Mountain and field, the whole army will be destroyed if it doesn't work well. After all, this is a sand table deduction, not actual combat. There are too many details that affect the victory or defeat that cannot be reflected on the sand table; lure the enemy to attack? Obviously, it doesn't work. As for the formation of expanding the mountains and fields, it is clear that we should make peace with Li Xian. If we can't fight, we won't fight, and it is the best strategy.

What should I do? Cold salad, how can a living person be suffocated to death? Although the iron barrel array in Tuoba Mountain and Field makes Li Xian feel a little tricky, it is far from making Li Xian helpless. In fact, when Lin Chengbin and other confidants fought with Li Xian's sand table in the past, they have tried the tactic of not winning but only peace with Li Xian, but So far, I haven't seen anyone who can beat Li Xian with such a trick. If you don't attack, then I will fight. The left and right fighters are played, not waiting.

The iron barrel array is conducive to defense, but weaker than attack. There is always a sparseness in Baimi. This sparseness is on the grain, and the same is true at this time. Although Tuoba Mountain and Field bring their own livestock, they do not need the grain way to transport grain in the rear. It seems that there are few flaws. In fact, it is not true. Just because livestock need to be grazing, hundreds of thousands of large animals Raising can't be dealt with by mowing grass at all. It can barely support it in three or five days. In the long run, not to mention that the livestock will die on a large scale due to lack of exercise, the work of mowing grass is enough to make the whole army of Tuoba Mountain and Field tired. There is no need for Li Xian to fight, you have to finish it all by yourself, and this grazing gap is where Li Xian's fighter is!

Five days have passed on the disk, and the two sides did not cross the army, and each of them did not move. The difference is that the Tuoba Mountain and Field has not changed at all, and it has always shrank, while Li Xian's army is scattered into five thousand-person teams, wandering around the periphery, mobilizing frequently, and waiting for the opportunity to move, so that Tuoba Mountain and the field dare not relax at all. On the sixth day, Liu Ziming, as a referee, made a conclusion that the grass near the Tuoba Mountain Camp was exhausted and could no longer supply the needs of the army. At this time, Tuoba Mountain could no longer be fully shrinking, and he had to move.

Tuoba Shanye is also a cruel man. Since he had to move, he simply made a big move. He still did not want to fight head-on with Li Xian. Instead, the whole army went out to guard the old and young of the clan to graze livestock. Hundreds of thousands of people have always held together and did not give Li Xian a chance to fight. This idea was also very safe, but It's not that there are no drawbacks. This drawback is that the grass needed by hundreds of thousands of livestock is not a small number. The pasture in the core position in a day or two has been empty, and it can no longer support the needs of all the livestock. At this time, the army will score without division. In desperation, Tuoba Mountain and Field has to divide the troops, but after seeing its dispatch Hundreds of thousands of people are divided into three legions, arranged in a character shape, echoing each other in the distance. One attack echoes in two places. It seems to be tightly stitched, but in fact, it is full of loopholes. At least in Li Qianxian, by this time, the balance of victory has quietly tilted to Li Xian's side!

The power of the cavalry lies in its mobility. Although both sides are cavalry, the gap in quality and training is a key factor that cannot be ignored. Li Xian, who has a deep rhyme way of riding, will not let go of such mobilizing the enemy, so that each fighter can be broken. Li Xian had launched a sudden attack, but after seeing a dazzling mobilization of the five Tang army detachments that were originally scattered everywhere, he suddenly launched a strong attack on the Tuoba Mountain and Wild Legion on the right. With the elite combat power, the right legion fell like the top of Mount Tai. Under the weakness, he had to stick to it. The battalion is waiting for reinforcements.

Attack! As soon as the right legion was attacked, Tuoba Shanye couldn't sit still and had to mobilize the other two legions to make a lot of aid. Each legion divided half of the troops and rushed to the attacked right wing at the speed of the forced army, trying to rely on the absolute advantage of troops. In turn, he besieged and annihilated Li Xian's troops. The action was very fast, but he didn't wait for his two armies to rush. On the battlefield, Li Xian's troops had withdrawn from the battlefield without hesitation. According to Liu Ziming's ruling, the Tang army suffered more than 500 casualties, and the sudden attack of the right legion of Tuoba Mountain and field suffered 4,000 casualties. Although the losses of both sides did not reach the extent that they hurt their muscles and bones, at this time, the initiative of the war was firmly controlled by the Tang army.

Attack, attack again, the target is still the right legion of Tuoba Shanye. The two reinforcements withdrew, but Li Xian's troops killed a horse gun and left with one blow. After this battle, more than 2,000 people in Tuoba Shanye were killed and injured, forcing Tuoba Shanye to transfer some of the other two legions to make up for the right legion. The loss, in this way, became an oil-adding trend. Li Xian grabbed the fighter and attacked its right legion again. Every time Tuoba Shanye reinforcements withdrew from the battle circle before the dispatch, several times, it was like a blunt knife cutting meat, which made Tuoba Shanye sad.

He couldn't hold it. Under the repeated blows of Li Xian, Tuoba Shanye could no longer adhere to the original steady tactics, just because he had seen that such a strategy could only become a victim of the Tang army's encroaching tactics. In a few more rounds, he would not even have the capital to take the initiative. At this time, Tuoba Shanye would be reluctant. He could only come out and chase Li Xian's troops, trying to surround and annihilate Li Xian on the grassland with ten times the number of soldiers.

A head-to-head battle? Li Xiancai was not so stupid. In the face of the fierce Tuoba Mountain Army, Li Xian refused to fight at all. He led his troops in circles on the vast grassland and turned around several times. The army of Tuoba Mountain has been torn apart by suspects everywhere, but it has always been difficult to catch Li Xian's main force. Since he was helpless, Li Xian's The main force suddenly appeared in front of the old camp of Tuoba Mountain and field. In only one battle, the empty old camp had been completely removed. Before the army of Tuoba Mountain and Field returned to defense, Li Xian's troops had mysteriously disappeared in the depths of the prairie. At this time of the battle, according to Liu Ziming's judgment, Tuoba Shanye's troops deducted the old and weak, leaving only 50,000 troops left, and There are still more than 4,000 people in Li Xian's army, and the military strength gap between them has narrowed to 11 times. After deducting the gap between their soldiers, the actual gap is only about four times. Although Tuoba Shanye still has the advantage of military strength, the loss of initiative has become the fatal key to Tuoba Shanye.

I'm in a hurry. Tuoba Shanye is really anxious. I have no choice but to gather troops again to protect myself. But when he mobilizes the whole army, the ghostly Tang army suddenly came out of the vast grassland and came to break through each other, the right side of the already defeated Tuoba Shanye. The legion was completely disabled, and then hid in the grassland before the Tuoba Shanye army arrived. After some dispatch, it attacked the left-wing battalion of Tuoba Shanye. It still left in a battle. After two consecutive sneak attacks, Tuoba Shanye once again lost nearly 10,000 troops, while Li Xian's troops still had more than 3,500 people. The comparison of the overall strength of the two sides is only ten times, and after deducting the gap in morale and the quality of soldiers, the gap in the overall strength of the two sides is only two and a half times. At this time, the advantage of the Tuoba Shanye side is pitiful.

You can't fight, and you can't catch it. In the face of the strange Tang army, Tuoba Mountain and Field is really helpless. However, if it can become the "Eagle of Hexi", it will not be an incompetent person. In such an unfavorable situation, Tuoba Shanye still refused to admit defeat and mobilized the whole army to begin to retreat in the direction of White Camel Ridge. It seems that it is intended to rely on the complex terrain of the White Camel Ridge to limit the speed of the Tang cavalry, forcing Li Xian to lead a head-on confrontation with him.

There are mountains and water in the White Camel Ridge. Although the pasture is not too abundant, it is enough to supply the needs of the livestock of the whole army. Once it is really allowed to retreat to the White Camel Ridge, it can be dangerous and calmly deal with the possible attack of the Tang army. If it really goes like this, Li Xianhao The war initiative that is not easy to win is bound to change hands again, and this is obviously not the situation that Li Xian is happy to see, and it is inevitable to respond to it.

For the retreating enemy, chasing and intercepting is the normal way to use troops. Li Xian knows this, and Tuoba Shanye also knows it. In view of this, Tuoba Shanye is closely guarded along the way to the withdrawal, and also arranged a series of traps and ambush to try to induce the Tang army to attack, so as to gather and annihilate the Tang army. All kinds of small means are extremely hidden and fierce. If Li Xian really dares to come, Tuoba Shanye has the absolute certainty of beating the Tang army.

There is no doubt that if you want to break the enemy, you have to attack, but how to attack is a very important thing. As soon as the withdrawal of Tuoba Mountain and Field appeared, Li Xian had determined the intention of Tuoba Mountain and Field, and immediately divided his troops without hesitation. With 500 people as a team, the whole army was divided into seven teams, only attacking along the way. The disturbance is never a strong attack. Each team fights and goes, staggering and changing positions from time to time. A series of scheduling is dazzling. Even with the shrewdness of the mountains and fields, it can't see through the true meaning behind Li Xian's seemingly useless means. If there is nothing we can do, we can only be careful and strengthen our vigilance. No The harassment of the Tang army was pursued, only to retreat safely to the White Camel Ridge area.

Retreat, and then retreat. Although he was harassed by the small detachment of the Tang army all the way, relying on a much more powerful force than the Tang army, Tuoba Mountain and Ye finally retreated to the vicinity of the White Camel Ridge at the cost of paying the lives of more than 2,000 soldiers. As long as he could cross the Huangshui, he could enter the White Camel Ridge and completely reverse it. Passive battle, at that time, even if Li Xian has achieved a lot of results, he can only pinch his nose and accept the result of the draw. At this time, Tuoba Shanye can finally breathe a little, but this breath is obviously a little earlier, just when Tuoba Shanno is slightly relaxed, the change is It happened all of a sudden...
