Chapter 166 Consideration
When the generals retreated and began to go back to arrange for the transfer of defense, Xiao Tianjian and Niu Jinxing and Li Jinde stood in front of the map in the tent.
"Has the general made up his mind?" Li Jinde asked Xiao Tianjian.
Xiao Tianjian nodded and said, "Yes! I have made up my mind! It can't be changed!"
Li Jinde said to Xiao Tianjian worriedly, "But the general led his troops this time, and there were only 10,000 troops in total. Regardless of the number of the officers and soldiers coming from any direction, the number is far more than the general! Wouldn't it be too risky?"
Xiao Tianjian shook his head and said, "Don't worry too much. At present, there are our detailed activities in various parts of Henan. The people are waiting for our Xingtian army to attack. As long as we go, we will be able to respond, so there is no problem in terms of military strength. What's more, our Xingtian army has always been a noble soldier. Not much! So don't use military strength to measure the gap between us and the officers and the army!
In addition, you and Mr. Niu have said that the officers and soldiers have come a lot this time, but they can't be effectively controlled by Xiong Wencan. These officers and soldiers from all walks of life have their own small calculations and refuse to fight with us! You are right about this, and that's why I have to lead the department out to fight!
I just want to take advantage of the opportunity of the officers and soldiers to fight separately, drag them away, and seek to consume a lot of their strength in the movement. When the time is ripe, I will give them a break. Once we take a defensive posture, it is now at the beginning of spring, and the farming in these jurisdictions is also the time for spring sowing. Officials As soon as the army arrives, with our troops, it is likely to be unable to take care of their own feet. If there is a slight mistake, it will let the officers and soldiers take advantage of the loopholes. Once they are allowed to go deep into our mansion, then many of our efforts during this period will be ruined by them! Once we suffer many military disasters this year, we will be sad in the second half of the year! In our jurisdiction, if it is not done well in winter, there will be another famine. Once the famine is triggered, who will support us as much as it is now?
So we can't wait for the officers and soldiers to come to the door. We have to take the initiative to attack and defeat them first! As for the danger of this battle, don't worry too much. We have fought more battles with fewer wins and more defeats, so this time I believe that we can still win, and we will win completely. In this battle, we will drain the blood of the imperial court, so that they will never have the strength to organize us so much in the future. Large-scale campaign!
On the contrary, I'm afraid that Mr. Niu will stay in the western part of Henan this time. At present, all the reserve camps have been mobilized. I am afraid that there will be a labor shortage in spring ploughing in various counties. Originally, the number of cattle, mules and horses in our jurisdiction was very limited, but now the strong labor force has been mobilized to prepare for the camp, and more It has increased the burden on the people!
So Mr. Niu should find more ways to solve this contradiction and sow all the spring sowing of farmland as much as possible! I'm afraid this matter is harder than me leading the army to go to war. There will be Mr. Lao Niu in this matter!"
Niu Jinxing nodded and said, "The general is extremely worried. It's best to do this! Instead of waiting for the officers and soldiers to come to the door, it is better to burn the war on their ground. The humble position agrees with the marshal's arrangement this time! As for the spring broadcast, the general doesn't have to worry about it. He will try his best to solve this problem! General, please don't worry about fighting outside!
In addition, Shuye (Li Jinde), this time you accompany the marshal on an expedition, you should plan more for the marshal. Don't make any omissions. The marshal can't be lost!"
Li Jinde immediately nodded and bowed and said, "Mr. Niu, please rest assured that the students will live up to the marshal and gentleman!" Now the students know that the general is really a hero in the world, and the students really admire the general! Just do what the marshal says! But who is the general going to fight first when sending troops next?
This time, Xiao Tianjian did not answer directly. Instead, he asked Li Jinde, "What you, as a counselor, needs to do is to be a counselor of military affairs for me. So in your opinion, who should we fight first this time?"
Li Jinde held his arm and looked at the map, unconsciously bit his lower lip, brushed his short chin with one hand, thought about it for a while, and analyzed Xiao Tianjian: "If among these officers and soldiers, the biggest threat to us is the officers and soldiers coming from Tongguan. After all, Shanzhou has not been taken down by us at present. Just by taking Mianchi and Xin'anyi, we can't figure out whether the officers and soldiers from Tongguan should fight Mianchi first or Lu first, so there is a lot of pressure in this regard! However, the general has made arrangements for this. Vice Commander Luo and General Liu are responsible for this direction. With their insights, they should be able to judge what to do best!
Among the remaining officers and soldiers, the strongest are Zuo Liangyu and Li Guoqi in the direction of Nanyang. After their troops are combined, the officers and soldiers of Xiangyang and Nanyang should reach more than 40,000, and once they start to act, they will form a lot of pressure on Lushan, Baofeng and Ruzhou!
As for Huang Degong and Sun Yingyuan's headquarters, they are now in Runing Mansion, which is the farthest away from here, and the threat is relatively small. I'm afraid the weakest one is Liu Zeqing's Shandong soldiers who moved in the direction of Kaifeng. It seems that it's best to fight Liu Zeqing first! After defeating his way, he quickly returned to his division to fight Huang Degong and Sun Yingyuan's headquarters, and finally beat Zuo Liangyu and Li Guoqi's headquarters.
But once this is done, for the marshal, he has to lead his troops to make a circle along the whole central part of Henan. On the contrary, it is easy to make the officers and soldiers in the direction of Nanyang and the officers and soldiers in the direction of Runingfu join together, so it is not the best strategy to beat Liu Zeqing first!
As seen from the humble position, if the general wants to be surprised, it's best to hit Runing Mansion first!"
Li Jinde spoke fast, and it didn't seem to be too organized. It was more like talking to himself, but in the end, he still put forward his opinion. After saying that, he turned to Xiao Tianjian and watched Xiao Tianjian wait for his decision.
Xiao Tianjian did not speak immediately, but glanced at Niu Jinxing. Niu Jinxing was also listening carefully to Li Jinde's words at this time. Before Xiao Tianjian could speak, he asked first, "Brick Ru Ning first? So what should Liu Zeqing do closest to Luoyang? He is most likely to go to Luoyang first. Once he arrives in Luoyang and joins hands with the officers and soldiers outside Luoyang City, it will be a great threat to Mianchi and Yiyang! Why don't you hit Liu Zeqing first?"
Li Jinde nodded and replied, "Liu Zeqing's subordinate is a guest army, and it is said that the military discipline under his command is very scattered. These soldiers from Shandong have thought about it. It has been several months since they came to Kaifeng! However, there are not many cases of real fighting with other rebels, but a lot of things have been done.
And Liu Zeqing is not a tough general, but he made some achievements in the past few years. After being promoted, he became arrogant and domineering. He was not strict in governing the army and was very good at drilling.
According to the student's judgment, even if he is ordered to help Luoyang this time, I'm afraid he will not rush the troops to advance. At present, who doesn't know that Luoyang City has long been the flesh of our Xingtian army. People like Liu Zeqing will never enter Luoyang before the arrival of other officers and soldiers!
His biggest possibility is to slowly enter the army first. After arriving in Xingyang or Gong County, he stopped to watch the limelight. Now he looks at the detailed news. It should be like this. In a few days, this man sent troops from Kaifeng Mansion. He only walked out a few dozen miles. In total, he could not walk 20 miles a day. Procrastinating, he didn't plan to go to Luoyang first at all!
So the students think that to deal with Liu Zeqing, they only need to send a battalion of people to attack Gong County or Yanshi. It is not necessary to conquer these two counties. After bluffing there, Liu Zeqing will be scared and dare not march forward again! If it really doesn't work, this battalion can also block Liu Zeqing's headquarters near Gong County, and strive to solve Huang Degong and Sun Yingyuan's headquarters first for the marshal!"
"So why don't we start with Zuo Liangyu first? You should know that the officers and soldiers under these guys are the most corrupt of all the officers and soldiers, which can be called the bandits in the bandit army! And he is the strongest. Once I get rid of him first, it is expected that other officers and soldiers will naturally be deterrified by the power of our army and dare not come to fight to us again. Why don't we deal with this one first? Xiao Tianjian held his arm and nodded to Li Jinde.
Li Jinde knew that it was time for Xiao Tianjian to consider his ability today, so he cheered up and continued, "It's not right! Although Zuo Liangyu's management of the army is lax, it is also because of his indulgence that many of the soldiers gathered by his men are even outlaws, so although his military discipline collapses, he is probably the most able to fight among these officers and soldiers!
If the general beats Zuo Liangyu first, he must go south first. At present, Xiong Wencan is sitting in Nanyang. He will immediately transfer Zuo Liangyu, Li Guoqi and other officers and other officers and troops to fight against the general, and it will definitely make Huang Degong and Sun Yingyuan advance from Runing to form a siege of the general. Once the general is surrounded, this time it is not in us. Fight against the officers and soldiers in the jurisdiction, but fight in the area controlled by the officers and soldiers. If you are not careful, you may be attacked by the enemy, so it is not the best strategy to fight Zuo Liangyu first!
The reason why the humble position invited the general to fight against Runing first is that Huang Degong was originally a defeated general under the general. Last year, he was defeated in Baofeng Hongshi Mountain. I'm afraid that he will still have a lingering fear now. The elite soldiers under his command have long been defeated in the last battle. Now, although he has pulled up a team in Jiangbei again, but I'm afraid of his combat strength. It will be quite limited. Even if Sun Yingyuan's department is added, it will not be the opponent of the marshal, and the situation around Runing is also conducive to the marshal's action. As long as the marshal first defeats Huang Degong and Sun Yingyuan's troops with lightning speed, it can make it difficult for Xiong Wencan to look at the heads and end of the officers and soldiers mobilized in Henan. No matter who the next general hits, he can fully take the initiative!"
Papa... After listening to Li Jinde's words, Xiao Tianjian couldn't help clapping with a smile, and then came forward and patted Li Jinde on the shoulder a few times and said with a smile, "Xue is quite good!" Wonderful! It's really wonderful! Ha ha! ......”
(I did what I said, it's the third day of junior high school today, and I didn't break the update! Ha ha! Everyone is satisfied!)
