Chapter 484 Murong Fang VS Yan Liang
The encounter between Murong Fang and Yan Liang can be said to be a coincidence, or it can be said to be a deliberate intention of both parties. Perhaps, this deliberate intention lies in Yan Liang's own selfishness, and of course it may have been entirely due to Yuan Shao's instruction.
Since Gongsun Zan was driven away and Huangfu Song went to Xiliang, should Fang Zhiwen get out of Anguo too!
As a political leader like Yuan Shao, this kind of desire has enough power to transform it into practical actions. Correspondingly, Fang Zhiwen, as another political leader, has the ability and obligation to break Yuan Shao's fantasy.
Therefore, Murong Fang and Yan Liang had this seemingly destined encounter.
"General, according to the existing information, Yan Liang's first seventh stage has an estimated force value of 93 to 94 points, and a commander value of 88 to 89. His personal combat power is strong, his skills tend to be assault melee skills, and his speed is estimated to be around 61. Of course, this speed is horse combat speed..."
Murong Fang listened carefully to the Chief of Staff’s report on Yan Liang. On the surface, Murong Fang’s expression was calm, but his heart was actually burning with raging flames. The strength of his opponent was impossible to destroy Murong Fang’s will, because Murong Fang followed his lord to fight from the sea of corpses and blood, and his will was extremely strong. More importantly, since the lord could entrust the war in Jizhou to him, it means that the lord trusted him to face all the enemies in Jizhou. Therefore, Murong Fang had unswerving belief that he would eventually win.
"Yan Liang's troops have a total of 50,000, all of which are light armored cavalrymen. They carry three short-range spears, and now they are forty miles away from our army. General, according to our speculation, there is a high possibility that Yan Liang will take the initiative to attack our army. And judging from the timing of their arrival in the camp, the fighter jets should be tonight or tomorrow morning."
Murong Fang looked at the map in front of him. The camping site he chose was open and there were no wide rivers around him. There must be some trees and hills. However, the height of the hills was not high, and the area of the trees was not too large. There were also some abandoned villages and forts during this period.
"Is there any gathering of players around? Where are the Yellow Turban Army troops?"
"According to the average stress test, no other large-scale agglomeration phenomenon was found. Within a range of 200 miles, Yan Liang's troops were the only troops that could pose an actual threat to our army."
"Very good, then wait for him to attack!" Murong Fang's lips showed a smile. He had been in Jizhou for almost half a year and finally could fight a decent battle. The last battle was to raid Gongsun Zan's troops with his lord. Gongsun Zan was really too unsuccessful. That battle was basically a unilateral massacre, especially with the presence of the lord and the Madam Taishi, the attack power of his own troops became too strong and the fun of fighting was much less.
But this time, it was a large-scale battle carried out by Murong's side alone. The opponent was still a first-class general in the seventh stage, while Murong's side was only a fifth-level commander general. The combat effectiveness caused by this gap was still very different. For Murong's side, the opponent was quite strong, not to mention that the opponent's troops were more than twice that of Murong's side.
"General, we made a plan to offset the speed problem of opponents slightly above us."
"Oh... there is only two gaps. You can smooth out the gap by using terrain and traps at will, or even a little delay in the pseudo trap. Our long-range attack power will become their nightmare!"
Murong Fang has a strong confidence. Archers are innately more advantageous than light armored cavalry. Jizhou is mostly flat terrain. Even if there are some woods and hills, and abandoned villages, it can only be a helping of Murong Fang and not an obstacle to him, because Murong Fang has eight thousand heavy crossbows and dragon cavalry in his hands. These cavalry can definitely become the main damage output as long as they rely on appropriate favorable terrain.
The only thing Yan Liang can have the advantage is his general bonus, which can effectively improve the army's defense ability and reduce his own losses. As for the increased attack power, it is meaningful to be able to catch up with Murong Fang. Otherwise, he will always be behind Murong Fang's butt and eat dust. Even if he has a high attack power, it will be useless!
The Chief of Staff and his men agree with this, but in the concept of these young staff, even if they are small, they need to be planned and deduced. This is a matter of principle: "General, the plan is necessary. I must submit the process and plan of the deduction to you, and you must sign and approve it."
Murong Fang grinned and patted the Chief of Staff on the shoulder with his palm against the thick leather armor, making a dull sound, making the Chief of Staff's body tilt!
"Very good! I said it was wrong. Go and make a plan, and I will approve it seriously."
...................................................................................................
"General, he finally blocked Murong Fang. This time he couldn't escape. Even if he found out now, he would have no chance to escape, right?"
"Isn't the distance of forty miles enough for them to escape? And, can you guarantee that they won't slip away while we camped overnight?"
"Uh...if they were going to leave, they wouldn't stop, right?"
"Haha," Yan Liang smiled. This is the essence of the problem: "Yes, it's not that we blocked him, but Murong Fang tried to fight us. It seemed that he was very dissatisfied. Do he think that the archers could eat us easily? With a long-range attack, we can fly our kites?"
"Kite?"
"It's Feng Yuan!"
“……”
"This is a word that aliens like to use, which is to keep a distance from the opponent's attack distance and use ranged attacks to defeat the opponent."
"The general knows so much!"
This horse was photographed very well. Yan Liang liked the most that others said he was knowledgeable. In fact, Yan Liang was very easy to learn, especially the anecdotes and some strange things, which he liked the most.
"Haha...what is there? Just listen more and learn more. As a general, you must have a humble heart. Do you understand?"
"I'm sure to be taught! But General, Murong Fang's archers can indeed use the Fengyuan tactics you just mentioned to deal with us!"
Yan Liang narrowed his eyes and stretched his palms, widened his fingers, staring at his palms. As if there was something magical on it, and then said with a grim smile: "You must think that the tactic of flying kites is easy, and you want to fly our kites. First, the speed is faster than us, the terrain is very familiar and suitable for large-scale cavalry attacks. Third, it is the number of our troops. If we have enough troops, we can divide the partial divisions to chase left and right to defeat this tactic."
"General, the enemy's speed should not be higher than ours!"
"Haha, so, I said that their kite flying tactics may not be useful, but Murong Fang dared to wait for us in front of him, obviously he had some support. But how could I, Yan Liang, be afraid of him! Since he wants to fight, then we will fight with dignity!"
Yan Liang put his palm away and pinched it into a huge fist. He hit the table map, as if he wanted to smash Murong Fang's troops. Of course, Murong Fang's provocation and arrogance were also smashed together!
"General, we will attack overnight?"
"No, since Murong's side is waiting for us to fight, they will naturally be prepared for sneak attacks. Murong's troops should have thousands of heavy crossbow dragon cavalry. Our night attack will be unable to effectively reduce the damage of crossbow arrows due to vision problems, and the losses will be greater. It is better to wait until dawn to officially start the war. In the face of the rapid charge of the cavalry, the effect of the crossbow soldiers will naturally be greatly reduced."
"General's opinion!"
Yan Liang nodded with satisfaction, thought carefully and ordered: "Tonight, I want to be alert to prevent the Murong side from attacking. In addition, I get up at 4 o'clock tomorrow morning to make meals, and try to rush to Murong side's camp before sunrise. The horses will be filled with essence tonight, and there will definitely be a big battle tomorrow."
"promise!"
....................................................................................
"Husband, why does General Murong have to fight against Yan Liang in the field instead of occupying the city? Wouldn't that be more beneficial to our army? And my husband also said that General Murong is good at defense."
Fang Zhiwen and Zhen Jiang and Tai Shi Zhaorong had just finished dinner and came out to digest food. They still had to practice martial arts later. Fang Zhiwen openly took Tai Shi Zhaorong and Zhen Jiang's hands to walk in the garden, which made Tai Shi Zhaorong a little shy. Although he was already an old couple, although Tai Shi Zhaorong also liked the feeling of being held by his husband, Tai Shi Zhaorong was still a little shy when he was watched by the female guards around him, especially the envy and teasing in the eyes of the female soldiers, which made Tai Shi Zhaorong feel urge to hide, so he just found a topic to divert his attention.
"Haha..." Fang Zhiwen smiled softly, looked at the blushing Taishi Zhaorong, then looked at Zhen Jiang, who was calm and maternal, and said in harmony: "I have said Murong Fang is good at guard, but I have never said that he is not good at attacking! Moreover, since Yuan Shao wants to fight, then he will get the result at one time. If the attack fails, Yuan Shao will try other methods again, but if the field defeats, I think Yuan Shao will calm down for a while."
"Well... But in field battles, the difference in troops is too big. General Murong is not good at using force. Will he suffer a loss!"
"No!" Fang Zhiwen smiled confidently: "If only cavalry tactics are concerned, Zhizhong will not lose to anyone, not to mention that archers are born to die of lancers. Even if they have light armor and even if they have strong generals, the difference is only the time for failure to be different!"
Taishi Zhaorong originally wanted to find a topic to divert her shame, but she didn't expect Fang Zhiwen's statement made Taishi Zhaorong feel very interesting, especially about the significance of the war with Yuan Shao. Thinking about it carefully, the more I thought about it, the more I felt that this battle had a deep meaning, and I couldn't help but feel a little distracted!
Zhen Jiang rolled his eyes to Fang Zhiwen. Fang Zhiwen smiled and pinched Zhen Jiang's hand, leaned into Zhen Jiang's ear and asked, "Are you cold, Pan'er?"
Zhen Jiang smiled, shook her head gently, and grabbed Fang Zhiwen's warm palm, with a gentle look in her eyes.
The two of them looked up at the white snow in the yard at the same time. It was the end of the New Year again!
