Eight hundred and thirtieth chapters grass (forty-three)(1/2)
"Wang Shichong's troops were seriously injured, and there were not many remaining troops from the old Jianghuai troops, but this does not mean that Wang Shichong has no soldiers available.
After all, there are still a large number of young and strong people in Luoyang City, and his support for the Emperor Taizhu could also be supported by the old subordinates of the Sui Dynasty.
In the Jianghuai area, there are Yingyang, the former subordinate of the Great Sui Dynasty, and there are also heroes and warriors who are willing to serve the Great Sui Dynasty.
Therefore, as long as he is given a breathing opportunity, he can still recruit soldiers to reorganize his army.
Li Jiancheng would not save Luoyang, but Wang Shichong himself had no way out, so he could only fight to the death.
Therefore, as long as our army attacks each other, Wang Shichong will definitely fight to the death.
At that time, we will still be fighting with tens of thousands of infantry and the Xuan Armored Essential Cavalry.”
Li Mi said: "Wang Shichong has seen the methods of the enemy, and even if there are 100,000 soldiers, they are not afraid.
What's more, his newly recruited troops are not trained without training, and no matter how many people there are, he will be a gang of people who cannot be one. What's wrong with him?"
"Your Majesty must not underestimate the enemy.
It is true that Wang Shichong's military methods are not very clever, but he has made many achievements in the past, so he is not ignorant of military affairs.
Besides, on the battlefield, victory or defeat is often on the front line, and those who underestimate the enemy will lose.
Our army can win today, which is because Your Majesty has good military strength and is also protected by God.
You must not underestimate Wang Shichong's methods because of this.
Moreover, the battle between trapped beasts is the most fierce. Even if you can win, both sides will inevitably suffer losses.
My Wagang tribe is all brothers and sisters, how can we abandon our lives at will?
Furthermore, our opponent is the whole world, not only Wang Shichong.
Li Jiancheng had a 60,000-strong army entrenched in Tongguan. When we destroyed Xu Le, he wanted to lead his troops.
If we fight Wang Shichong to lose both sides, how much more will we have to deal with Li Jiancheng?"
Speaking of this, Xu Shiji slowed down a little, and his voice unconsciously lowered a little: "The exercises of those Xiaoguo Army are not yet mature, and they are not enough to entrust the important task.
At this time, the situation is like feeding a tiger. If you have successful training in the future, you can become an arm helper.
Now, it’s better to be cautious.”
Li Mi naturally understood the meaning of Xu Shiji's words. In fact, what he pointed out was also a major problem facing the Wagang Army at present.
Swallowing an elephant with a snake is certainly a fortune, but how to digest the elephant without being stretched out is a headache.
Li Mi naturally knew what life the Xiaoguo Army lived in Wagang, and knew that this was not a solution, but it was impossible to speak for the Xiaoguo Army.
After all, those people were all prisoners, and they had killed and injured many generals of Wagang during the war.
Whether it is following the rules of Green Forest or the means of the battlefield, it is no mistake to kill them all.
Now, not only do we not kill, we also have to train them into an army and incorporate them into the Wagang system. It is simply a blessing. What happened to let them suffer and feel a little wronged before that?
Who can say no?
Besides, they were captured rather than surrendering, so who can tell the truth?
A bunch of people who even the emperor dares to kill can do anything.
If they don’t give them some excellence, they will be afraid of Wagang from the bottom of their hearts. Who knows whether they are really surrendering or fake surrendering?
After all, there are only a few tricks to manage surrendered troops in this era.
Knife, stick, and rope are finally the wine, meat, and wealth.
You have to slap your hands enough before you can give sweet dates, otherwise how can you feel at ease?
But doing so will inevitably make the surrendered soldiers feel resentful.
Before their resentment turns into fear and finally obeys orders, there must be a transitional stage, and this stage is the most dangerous time.
Due to the fierce military law and the strict hierarchy within the army, the superiors bully the subordinates, and many military men were relieved.
This air cannot dissipate, so I don’t know when it explodes.
Even if it is your own people, there may be a whistle, let alone such captive soldiers.
Once they launch a large-scale roar or mutiny, it will be an opponent that must be taken seriously for the Wagang Army.
Since no one had expected to eat such a huge creature in one bite, no one was ready to digest and absorb it.
Whether it is an officer or a material, or even how to train and distribute it, there is no good plan. As a result, there is actually no good way to deal with these prisoners.
Even if he is as wise as Xu Shiji, he cannot come up with a solution to this problem.
The current method is to use hunger and heavy labor to make the Xiaoguo army exhausted and have no strength to rebel.
Then, the Wagang Army's superior forces looked at them and used the deterrence of the number of people to prevent the Xiaoguo Army from having any dissatisfaction.
Xu Shiji's meaning is also very obvious. The Wagang soldiers are numerous and powerful, and they are always winning battles. Of course, those Xiaoguo soldiers dare not change.
Give Xu Shiji a while so that he can adapt and practice this team, and sooner or later he can digest them into combat power.
However, if the troops lost too much under Luoyang City, or if the war is unfavorable, and another strong enemy that threatens itself appears in front of you, it is hard to say whether the Xiaoguo army will be in chaos.
Besides, there is also a family force that has always been hidden behind the scenes. If they want to stab the sword, the Xiaoguo Army is an excellent target for strength.
If the loss of his own strength is too great, the Xiaoguo Army will definitely cause a huge storm that is enough to threaten his existence.
Could it be that it is because of these that we have stopped the army?
No! There is no such reason! Besides, if this is true, why should Xu Shiji be mysterious and call himself here?
I think Xu Shiji must have had a solution, so he couldn't think too much about it.
Anyway, when it comes to military use, no matter how much I think about it, I will be destined to be unable to catch up with Xu Shiji. It would be better to be relaxed and follow his arrangements.
Sure enough, seeing that Li Mi did not say anything, Xu Shiji immediately spoke: "Although Wang Shichong is a hero of the world, this person has a limited pattern, is both narrow and suspicious, and he will not be able to stand with Li Yuan.
Besides, Li Yuan proclaimed himself emperor in Guanzhong, Wang Shichong served as the king in Luoyang, and there was no two days and no two masters in the country. Just for this reputation, the two families cannot be compatible.
It was simply because our army was outside, and Wang Shichong had to rely on Li Yuan's military force.
As long as our army's imperative is reduced slightly, they will surely kill each other.
That Xuanjia Knight is a big trouble in our hearts, and isn’t it also a bone stuck in Wang Shichong’s throat?”
"No matter how afraid of the Xuanjia Cavalry, Wang Shichong's son, he would not dare to catch fire openly, right?
After all, in Tongguan, there is also Li Jiancheng's army of 60,000.
If he plotted against the Xuanjia Cavalry, wouldn’t he be afraid that Li Jiancheng would take the opportunity to attack?"
"It doesn't have to be really good at taking action. As long as he sits still and watches success or failure at the critical moment, it will be enough to kill Xu Le's life!"
Xu Shiji looked at Li Mi and his tone became a little excited: "Xu Le is invincible, and the Xuanjia Cavalry is the few powerful troops in the world. If he fights each other on weekdays, even if someone leads his troops personally, it is hard to say that he has a chance of winning.
Now that the general is not in harmony with the upper and lower levels, the best time to take his life! If you miss this opportunity, it will be difficult to kill him again.
Their troops are only a thousand cavalry, and no matter how brave they are, they are just partial teachers. They must rely on infantry protection on the battlefield.
If our Wagang army had all its strength to attack and kill, Wang Shichong would have to fight side by side with Xu Le in order to protect himself.
But if our army uses a small group of cavalry to specialize in Xuanjia Cavalry, the winner will be unscathed by Wang Shichong.
Of course, he will not help others and cause damage to himself."
Li Mi took the initiative to interrupt Xu Shiji: "I am a little confused when Xu Da said this.
You also said that the Xuanjia cavalry is brave and good at fighting, and it is not too late for our army to attack each other with a large army. Isn’t it a waste of death to harass a small group of rangers?
At least they have a thousand people. If we only send a few hundred soldiers, wouldn’t we be in vain?”
"As the lord said, our army is not his opponent even if it is a thousand cavalry.
However, we rangers do not win, but only to harass the tired soldiers, and then to stir up his fire.
Just like we dealt with the Xiaoguo Army that day, we cut off the food and grass to stir up the fire. When their fire hits the top beam, no one can restrain us.
Then you will be led into an ambush and you will be able to win a great victory in one battle."
The tactics Xu Shiji mentioned at this moment are similar to those of Wagang defeat and culture, and they are basically just like the same thing.
Li Mi also knew that the military rations were short of military rations in Luoyang City, and even if Xu Le leaned against the city, the food and grass were still very nervous.
Besides, Wang Shichong himself also has troops, and fighting for grain by the host and the guest is often an important inducement of internal strife. It seems that it is not too difficult to defeat Xu Le using previous tactics.
But the key to the problem is that it is much more difficult to lure such a team than to lure the Xiaoguo Army.
Xiaoguo had many soldiers but uneven people's hearts. Even the general could not enforce the orders and finally could only be carried into the ambush circle.
The black armored soldiers are few and easy to command, and the cavalry come and go freely.
If you set up an ambush with a large group of people, the other party can withdraw their troops immediately when they find that the situation is wrong, and all plans will lose their meaning.
If there are too few people hiding ambush, how can we annihilate this iron army?
Besides, there are too many variables in this plan. If Xu Le can restrain his subordinates from chasing them, or if they are supplemented with food and grass, then the entire plan will fall into nothing.
Xu Shiji saw what Li Mi thought and said in a deep voice: "Breaking the Xuan Armor is not as good as destroying the Xiao Fruit, it will definitely cost a lot of money.
With Xu Le's ability to use military forces, he must have a clear understanding of the terrain around Luoyang. He may not be able to find a place to ambush the Jedi.
