Chapter 243 Sending a Trojan Horse to Zhang Bao

After seeing off Lu Zhi, Zhao Xing immediately began to arrange a military service against Zhang Liang and Zhang Bao. (eng.com) In a large house in the former Julu Prefect's Mansion, it was temporarily used as a combat command room. Zhao Xing and a group of civil and military officials were discussing specific combat plans.

"The Taocheng of Guantao City is located in the center of Jizhou and cannot be abandoned easily. Our army should use this as a base to ensure the safety of logistics supply and leave a retreat for the forward troops to retreat. Once there is an emergency, you can defend the city and insist on Bingzhou to send rapid troops to rescue." Xu Huang was good at defending and did not reach the entire place. The first thing he thought about was the safety and defense of the troops, so he put forward his own views.

"The words of Chief Xu's army make a lot of sense. I believe that not only should we leave some troops to defend the pottery, but we should also repair the collapsed city gate as soon as possible, dig out a trench outside the city, find a way to fill the water inside, and further increase the difficulty of attacking the city." Guan Yu agreed with Xu Huang's idea and added.

"Okay, according to the words of Commander Guan and Commander Xu, tomorrow we will mobilize 50,000 civilians to start strengthening the city walls and digging earth moats. Next, we will focus on discussing how to use military strategies against Lecheng and Nanpi. Please speak freely." Zhao Xing decisively agreed with the two people's opinions and then went to the next topic.

"Lecheng County, Hejian County is only fifty miles away from Nanpi City, Bohai Kingdom. We send troops to attack Zhang Bao, who is close to Tao. Zhang Liang in Nanpi City will definitely send troops to support him. In this way, our army will face the danger of being attacked from both sides." Staffman Wang Kai raised his doubts.

"If we look far and attack Nanpi Zhang Liang first, we will have to march from the vicinity of Lecheng. Zhang Bao will definitely send troops to follow him, and in the end it will be a difficult dilemma." Staffman Xu Shi also put forward his opinions.

"If we have a feint attack, set up an ambush on the road leading to a happy success in Nanpi, and annihilate Zhang Liang's troops who were leaving the city to rescue in one fell swoop, greatly destroying Zhang Liang's strength and morale, so that he dare not come again, so that he can attack the city with peace of mind." Qin Yilu rarely put forward a bold idea.

"The problem is that it is difficult to find a suitable ambush place between Nanpi and Success." Li Fu expressed his objection.

"According to the 'beheading operation' combat concept proposed by Guochang a few days ago, as long as one of the two Zhangs can be lured out of the city and used unconventional combat methods to quickly kill him, one side will be in chaos. In this way, you can attack another city without worrying about being attacked from behind." Chen Gong put forward his new ideas based on the opinions of the previous people.

"The military advisors are right. The Bingzhou Corps is not fighting with others when they come to Jizhou, but to make money. Naturally, they cannot put their elite troops under the high walls of the city, which will only increase casualties. A few days ago, I proposed two new words, namely "beheading operation" and "long-range sniper". Today, I will inform you in detail how I will implement it." Zhao Xing said.

When they heard that Zhao Xing was going to attend class temporarily, both scholars and generals immediately became energetic and showed great expectations. Everyone was not pretending to be expecting, but were really willing to listen to Zhao Xing's incredible strategies in his magical head.

According to his own understanding in this life, Zhao Xing explained to everyone the tactical terms that emerged in the previous life: "The so-called 'beheading operation' can actually be interpreted as 'Capture the king first, and hit the snake seven inches'. However, the difficulty of capturing the king is greater than that of beheading and is generally difficult to implement. On the contrary, it is better to use various means to quickly eliminate the thief chiefs, directly causing the enemy army to have no headless dragons. There are many ways to behead, and the most commonly used are to sneak in assassination, cast hidden weapons, poison, set fire, use traps, etc. The elements of beheading are fast, accurate, and internal response."

"The so-called 'long-range sniper' is a specific tactic after the decision to implement the 'deheading operation'. The key is to use long-distance precision strike weapons, not close contact with the enemy, and use very few troops at a distance to carry out fatal strikes on enemy generals." Zhao Xing continued to instill some modern military terms and ideas into everyone.

"Can we understand this way? If we are planning to carry out a beheading operation on Zhang Liang in Nanpi City, we can use the method proposed by Qin Jun just now to lure the enemy out of Nanpi City, and archers with superb shooting skills in ambush in the distance, and only shoot Zhang Liang, and find a way to kill him?" Li Jinwu put forward his own understanding and thoughts.

"Resolution! Actually, it's that simple. The key to success or failure lies in determining the superb skills of the thief chief and the operators." Zhao Xing nodded with a smile and continued: "But the tool we used to implement long-range sniping this time is not a crossbow used by individual soldiers, but a large siege bed crossbow! This object can shoot hundreds of feet away, and the correct head will not drop significantly. If you use more than a dozen crossbows and fire a certain target, the attack will be very good. This time I want the Shadow Team members to give it a try."

"Since you can design a long-range sniping plan for Zhang Liang, can you also think about Zhang Bao who succeeds? Anyway, keeping these two people is just a disaster. If we don't do it, the court will definitely not let them go." Li Jinsi, behind Zhao Xing, learned from it and put forward his own ideas.

"The Tao City of Guantao is a dry city. Because there is no moat block, iron-armored vehicles can easily approach it, but Lecheng and Nanpi City are close to Tuoshui and Zhangshui respectively, both have wide and deep moat blocks. It is very difficult to get close. It is difficult to use the method of bombing the sky and thunder to blow the city gate. According to the intelligence analysis collected by Shadow, Zhang Bao is more cautious than his cousin Zhang Liang, and will not leave the city easily. If you want to get rid of this person outside the city, you are afraid that there will be a chance." Chen Gong pointed out that Li Jinsi's idea is good, but it is too difficult to implement it.

"We can't do it outside the city, we can find a way to do it inside the city. Xue Lan, who came with the army this time, has extraordinary archery skills. If he can get close to Zhang Bao within 150 steps, he will definitely be able to hit it with one blow." Li Jinsi provided an idea to enter the city to assassinate Zhang Bao.

"The question is how can Xue Lan get close to Zhang Bao?" Zhao Xing had long thought of the way to enter the city to assassinate Zhang Bao, but how could Xue Lan get into the city with a big bow?

Everyone stopped talking at this time, thinking about the strategy of letting people sneak into the city. Zhao Xing finished thinking about the method of infiltration from ancient times to the present and thought about foreign countries. Not long after, he really thought of a strategy - the Trojan Horse Massacre of the City!

Zhao Xing then told everyone this bold idea, but he replaced a huge Trojan horse with several solid armored vehicles, so that several Shadows and Xue Lan hid in it. At that time, he pretended to be someone pushing the armored vehicles to prepare to bomb the city. When he walked to the position close to the moat, he tried his best to make some ways to cover up his intentions to cross the moat. Then, because he was defeated by the arrows of the defenders on the city, he had to give up. He even threw away the armored vehicles when he left. After that, it would be necessary to see if Zhang Bao in the city would be moved, and someone would take advantage of the night to lead the armored vehicles into the city.

Although Zhao Xing's plan was a bit incredible, it was the most likely method to succeed. However, it was very dangerous for the Shadow Team members who participated in the operation and Xue Lan himself. If Zhang Baozhen sent someone to transport the modified armored car back to the city and found that there were spies in the car, then Zhang Bao only needed to order people to set up a fire and burn the person to death directly in the car.

"It would be easier if it rained those days. Zhang Jiao couldn't make a fire, and the people in the car would be fine for a while." Dian Wei, who had never interrupted, muttered.

"Yes, if you can predict the weather for a while and choose a rainy day, it will be safer." Zhao Xing slapped his thigh and immediately had an idea.
