Chapter 666 Pocket Tactics
More than a dozen generals of all sizes around the sand table were struck by lightning after hearing the words of dusk.
Completely wiped out?
Thirty thousand?
Cavalry?
You're afraid you're not dreaming!
Your slutty boy who is not even a black and hard-beard knows the war of Hammer.
Do you dare to imagine such a result of annihilation of 30,000 cavalry?
This is not what daydreams do.
Generally speaking, if a war has a loss ratio of one fifth, it is basically a very extreme defeat. The subsequent pursuit is to expand the results of the battle, but it must be wiped out...
It's very difficult.
You should know that you are facing the Tatar cavalry and the grassland cavalry. Their combat effectiveness is still above the Ming cavalry. Secondly, there are 30,000 cavalry, and 30,000 cavalry that are determined to enter the pass and rob. Even if they are surrounded, with the maneuverability of the cavalry, it is not difficult to break through.
unless……
Only then did Li Yuan understand why there were 10,000 elite cavalrymen coming to Dushikou.
The total number of cavalry drawn from the pass and the original cavalry inside and outside the pass is no less than 30,000, which means that the next battle is evenly matched or even slightly superior in the cavalry.
The main reason is that time is rushing, and the cavalry on the Ming Dynasty did not have time to gather together, so this is basically an encounter.
Li Yuan understood.
The meaning of dusk is actually very simple. Use the shortest time to gather troops to fight a full-strength battle. The battlefield is limited to the Yumuchuan area. If the Tatars run far away, they will not chase them.
If the Tatars don't run away, then they will fight to the end.
Two victories.
One is to grab Princess Baoqing back. As long as you achieve this battle, you will basically not lose.
If you can wipe out all the enemy troops, you will make a fortune.
Does this mean dusk?
I'm afraid not.
Li Yuan understood that such a strategic intention was definitely not something that a young man could formulate at dusk, but it must have been thought of by His Majesty, who was in charge of Shuntian.
So confidence increased greatly.
This is an opportunity to make military achievements. If these 30,000 Tatars are really wiped out, the Feng Gong will be close at hand!
At dusk, he pondered: "Next, Mr. Li, you have been in charge of Xuanfu for many years and have prestige in the north. You can go to Xuanfu to lead troops to gather the troops of Datong and Guihua City. Of course, the more the better. However, the troops in Yulin and Yunzhou adjacent to Guihua City should not be moved. We must be careful of the Tatars and the Oirati Yellow Birds behind. How many troops in Xuanfu and Datong are brought to encircle the west and north of Yumuchuan and cut off the two routes of Tatars retreating."
Li Yuan was greatly inspired, "Receive the order!"
Military achievements were waving to him, and at this time there was no time to care about the dusk being a young boy.
At dusk, he looked at Xu Zhen, "You are going to Kaiping now, don't use the troops of Dushi Pass. After you arrive at Kaiping, don't remember to go to Yingchang to conquer the northeast of Yumuchuan, but wait for the cooperation of Daning and Quanning. Your Majesty's decree should have arrived in these two places. After the troops of these two places go to Yingchang, you will take action to avoid being noticed by the 30,000 Tatars-"
Suddenly he stopped, "No, once the Kaiping Guard's troops are mobilized, the Tatars will be alert and alert the enemy."
Xu Huizu nodded, "Indeed, the forces of Kaiping Guard cannot move, and they must make a defensive posture, so that they can paralyze the 30,000 Tatar cavalry in Yumuchuan."
Looking at Xu Zhen at dusk.
Xu Zhen laughed, "What's the fear? I, the three thousand men of Kaipingwei, can nail 30,000 Tatars like a nail."
Nodded at dusk, "How many cavalry are there in Kaiping Guard?"
Xu Zhen: "Five hundred."
The dusk was a little sad, "It's not enough, I can't bite them. In this way, you go to Kaiping Guard and make a defensive posture. Never leave the city. If the 30,000 Tatars bypass Kaiping, you will turn the five hundred cavalry into scouts and follow them."
Xu Zhen nodded, "Receive the order!"
At dusk, he waved his sleeves, "In this way, I will lead 10,000 cavalry to wait for your siege at Dushi Pass. Once the siege is successful, we will attack the whole army and fight a beautiful siege battle."
As for pocket tactics, just close your pocket and pick up the head.
Looking at Li Yuan, "So Marquis Li, you must be fast, you must be fast, time is a fighter. As long as you cut off the north and west sides of Yumuchuan, and there are Yingchang, Quanning and Daning troops in the northeast direction of Yumuchuan, then these 30,000 people will never be able to break out of the encirclement anyway."
To be fast, an encirclement must be formed before the 30,000 people are alert, otherwise everything will be in vain.
Li Yuan knew the importance of the matter, "and never let down the general's mission."
At dusk, he waved his sleeves: "Let's go."
Time waits for no one, and fighter opportunities are fleeting, so we must seize the time to make arrangements.
Li Yuan and Xu Zhen immediately led the generals to set off. After a while, in the huge Dushi Guanzhong, there were only four thousand original defenders and ten thousand iron cavalry drawn from the Guanzhong.
Xu Xu and Xu Huizu took over completely.
Xu Huizu smiled and said, "So I need to wait now?"
He laughed at dusk, "Things are not."
He said to Xu Huizu: "Li Yuan must have thought that this tactic was formulated by His Majesty. In fact, he guessed it wrong. This pocket tactic was actually thought of by His Majesty. Your Majesty decided, brother-in-law, you must do the most critical thing next."
Xu Huizu was surprised, "Didn't you say that these ten thousand iron cavalry are waiting for an opportunity to move?"
Xun nodded, "Yes, but when Li Yuan's Xuanfu and Datong's troops have been dispatched, it has been dispatched by Daning and Quanning's troops. We need time. Now it's time to paralyze the opponent. Brother-in-law, you have to protect me to go to Yumuchuan."
It’s not a matter of one or two days to be dispatched.
There are many things involved.
Especially in terms of food and grass, it is extremely important, so it is necessary to buy more time for Li Yuan and Daning to form an encirclement circle. According to the current marching speed, it is necessary to fight for at least seven days.
Therefore, it is necessary to meet the generals of the 30,000 Tatar soldiers in Yumuchuan.
Of course, you can't send a head.
Xu Huizu asked, "How to go? Should we bring all the troops from Dushi Pass here, or should we just bring a few hundred people?"
Even though Xun didn't think about it, "Just mean it. I guess Xiao Baoqing hasn't revealed his identity yet, otherwise the Tatars would have sent someone to discuss with us the matter of replacing people with money."
Xu Huizu immediately went out, "I'll go and order the troops, five hundred cavalry, is it enough?"
Dusk smiled and said, "Enough."
Not to go to war.
There are too many people but no sincerity, so there is only one hundred people. But the one who actually went to see the leading Tatar was actually the only one who brought a few family girls with him.
My brother-in-law led the five hundred cavalry troops, and was only responsible for the responsibility of responding.
As for negotiations, the two armies will not kill them.
What's more, I am now pretending to be rich and negotiating with the Tatars, and the winter is about to come. No matter how unreasonable the Tatars are, they will not be unable to get over money.
Besides, I don’t need to pretend.
Chapter completed!
