Chapter 1022 The enemy's trace is now
The Qingchuan City in Goguryeo is located in the center of the intersection of the Dading River and the Sashui River. The Dading River is more than ten miles west, and there is Jinkou in the west, and there is Jinkou in the west, and there is Yalu River for more than two hundred and fifty miles west, and there is Sashui River for east, and there is Jinkou in the east, and there is Jinkou in the east, and there is more than one hundred and fifty miles east of the river, which is Pyongyang City.
The importance of Qingchuan City can be imagined. It has assumed the responsibility of defending Pyongyang in the protracted war with Middle-earth. If the Liaoshui River and Liaodong City are the first defense lines to defend Pyongyang, then Wugucheng and Yalu River are the second defense lines to defend Pyongyang. Qingchuan City and its east and west sides of the Dading River and Sashui form the third defense line to defend Pyongyang. Therefore, once Qingchuan City is lost, Pyongyang will open its doors and will directly face the fierce attacks of its opponents.
The Sashui War two years ago was the main battlefield, with a vast ocean and corpses everywhere; last year, the Goguryeo people stationed heavily in Qingchuan, but the Middle-earth people did not cross the Yalu River, so Qingchuan City won precious breathing time. The Goguryeo people immediately seized this rare opportunity and did their best to repair it, consolidate and strengthen the defense of Qingchuan City. This year, the war broke out again, and the Goguryeo, which was scarred and dying, was no longer able to sustain it. They could only fight to the death and could only use their limited power on the "blade" to strive for another miracle. The Yalu River Defense Line and the Qingchuan Defense Line became Pyongyang's "life-saving straw". Whether they can firmly grasp these two "life-saving straws" directly determine the fate of Goguryeo.
On April 29, Yizhi Wende rushed to Qingchuan and personally visited the front line to command. He was determined to use the favorable terrain of Qingchuan's two waters and one city, as well as the 30,000 garrison troops in Qingchuan and the 20,000 elite troops who had just reinforced from Pyongyang to build an insurmountable steel defense line.
After noon, the Qingchuan guard generals Shao Shilin, Shi Xin and Quan Baicao jointly rushed to Jinkou, east of Sichuan to welcome Wende of Yizhi.
Yizhi Wende got off the boat and exchanged some greetings with Shao Shi, Shi and General Quan San, and immediately turned to the topic, "Can the traces of the Marine people be found in the southeast foot of Jiangnan Mountain and the middle and upper reaches of Dading River?"
After receiving the news that the Marines turned against each other, Pyongyang immediately ordered Qingchuan to send a large number of men to search for enemy territory along the Dading Hebei. Although Pyongyang still had a glimmer of hope for the situation, he believed that even if Sumo Moe was robbed by fire, he would not dare to go deep into the surrounding areas of Pyongyang alone for a dangerous attempt. After all, the Marines were limited in strength. In order to protect and protect themselves and safely, it was already the limit to conquering domestic cities and plundering important northern towns in Goguryeo such as Hamkyung City. Before the situation changed significantly, the possibility of going south to the hinterland of Goguryeo was slim. However, this is speculation after all, Pyongyang has no accurate understanding of the current situation of the Marines, so it is impossible to make accurate inferences about the Marines' actions. In case of prevention, be cautious and prepare for the war.
Eji Wende asked casually and did not expect an answer. After all, Pyongyang issued an order the day before yesterday. Even if Qingchuan spared no effort to do his best, it would be impossible to detect the military situation four or five hundred miles away in such a short time. So his purpose was to supervise and urge the generals below to strictly implement the orders, not to be perfunctory or even to be slanderous.
When the young man, the division, and the general of Quan San heard Yizhi Wende ask about military information, the smile on his face immediately dissipated and his expression suddenly became serious.
Yizhi Wende noticed the abnormality and was surprised, and immediately asked, "Did you find the enemy?"
The three generals nodded at the same time. As the head coach, Shao Shilin bowed and replied, "This morning, a scout team came from news that they encountered a team of marshals in the mountains about 120 miles north of Qingchuan. After a slight contact between the two sides, the team of marshals flew away."
Eji Wende was surprised, "How many string control do the team's scouts?"
"More than a hundred cavalry." Shao Shilin replied.
Eji Wende's brows frowned immediately, with a very serious expression, "The news is accurate?"
If the scouts of Marine only have a few or dozens of people, it may be a outpost, but the scouts of more than a hundred cavalry are definitely not an enemy outpost, and the main force of the enemy is probably behind.
Shaoshilin said without hesitation, "Accurate. I have sent more troops to go north to find enemy tracks. We will receive more accurate news at the latest tomorrow morning."
Yizhi Wende nodded, while concentrating on his mind, he asked, "Can there be any news from the northern border town in the past two days?"
"No." Shaoshilin said, "We have not received any news from the northern border town these two days, but today we have found an enemy more than a hundred miles away from Qingchuan City. We have confirmed it twice, and then boldly assume that perhaps the traitorous Martyr has come, intending to stab us in the back, catch us off guard and give us a fatal blow."
Yizhi Wende pondered without saying a word.
"General, based on our understanding of the Marines, as well as the knowledge of the Marines, the Chief General Tieli of Sumo, Huiba Chief General Yidian and other Marines, in the current situation, it is certain that they took advantage of the situation and took advantage of the fire to rob, but it is very abnormal to go deep into Pyongyang and put themselves in a life-threatening danger." Quan Baicao saw that Yizhi Wende was reluctant to speak, so he boldly spoke, "General, if something abnormal happens, it is a monster. There is a lot of mystery here. Perhaps the only ones who came from the Marines, but also the Middle-earth people and the Middle-earth side troops. Their purpose is to cooperate and help the main army of Zhongtu quickly cross the Yalu River."
Yizhi Wende's expression became more gloomy, and the wrinkles on his old face seemed to be deeper. His straight and thin body seemed to be unable to withstand the invisible pressure, gradually becoming tired and hunched. The gray-white hair and beards that fluttered in the wind gave people the illusion that they instantly turned white.
"General, although this guess is alarmist, it is not impossible. As long as there is a possibility on the front line, we must be prepared for it." Shi Xin also interrupted in time, "The Middle-earth people suffered heavy blows and hated me Goguryeo to the core, and they must kill them soon. This year their attack was more fierce and the attack speed was faster, which was enough to prove that they were willing to die in my Goguryeo. For this reason, they would definitely do everything they could to buy the Marines, take the interlude and sneak attack Pyongyang, and other despicable and shameless means will also emerge one after another, and they must be guarded against."
Shaoshi Lin followed closely behind. Just as he was about to make a statement, he was stopped by Yizhi Wende.
"Your speculation makes sense. You want to attack head-on and kill the invading enemy cleanly. This is not bad, but..." Yizhi Wende looked at the three generals and said calmly, "The military situation is unclear and the battle situation is intricate. Do not draw conclusions. Be careful not to be impatient and respond to changes in the same way. As long as we firmly grasp the initiative, we have a chance of winning in this battle."
The three generals had obvious intentions, which was to take the initiative and take advantage of the favorable opportunity of the reinforcements coming, to give the invading enemy a headache, and in turn, to catch the enemy off guard.
"General, the Middle-earth people are coming fiercely, and General Jiang has also retreated to Yalu River. In this crisis, the Marines rushed from the flanks. If they cannot defeat them with thunder, our army will be in a dilemma of being attacked from both sides. Once the Yalu River defense line is lost, the consequences will be unimaginable." Shao Shilin resolutely advised, regardless of Yizhi Wende's stop, "General, the situation is critical, and passive defense will only worsen the situation. Only by taking the initiative to attack instead of defending, and causing severe damage to the invading enemy, can we have the possibility of reversing the crisis."
Yizhi Wende looked up at the distance and contemplated. After a long time, the coldness on his old face gradually dissipated, and a faint smile slowly bloomed. Then he took a deep breath of fresh air by the river, turned around and looked at the anxious three generals of Qingchuan, and said a repeated sentence, "Your speculation makes sense."
After pausing for a moment, facing the expectant gaze of the three generals, Edzhi Wende asked slowly, "If this speculation is unfortunate, if there is indeed a Middle-Turk army and a Middle-Turkish partial army behind the Marine Control String, then is your initiative correct? Will it work? Did you happen to be trapped by the enemy?"
After a brief thought, the three generals understood the meaning of Yizhi Wende. The reason why the two sides had serious differences was that they had different judgments on the strength of the invading enemy troops.
The three generals determined that even if the partial army of China-Turkish troops joined forces with the Marines to attack, the number was very limited. After all, they would attack in the middle and trek, with long distances, high mountains and long roads, rugged and difficult to travel, and the transportation of food and grass was extremely inconvenient. The Sino-Turkish troops could not take a large-scale operation at all. If the Marines wanted to preserve their strength, they would not be able to fight to the death. In this way, as long as their side attacked and gave the enemy a head-on attack, they would have a chance of victory.
However, Yizhi Wende's judgment was exactly the opposite. He believed that if a Chinese-Turkish partial division united with the Marines to attack, then in order to ensure the chance of victory and ensure the expected attack target, the Chinese-Turkish partial division must reach a certain scale. In this way, if one side attacks rashly, he will inevitably fall into the opponent's trap and be attacked violently by the opponent. Once the troops are damaged or even lose the Qingchuan defense line, the consequences will not be serious, but will be destroyed.
The three generals looked at each other. Although they had objections, Yizhi Wende is now a god-like existence. His words and deeds have unquestionable authority. The Sashui victory is a typical example. Who could believe this almost miraculous victory in Goguryeo before? So at critical moments and when it is difficult to choose, everyone still believed Yizhi Wende without hesitation.
"Pyongyang has already made the worst preparations for the Marines and has predicted the current bad situation, but we still ignore one thing, and it can even be said to be insufficient." Eddie Wende continued, "The Marines and Middle-earth people have a deep hatred. Even if the Marines change their course, it will not win the trust of the Marines. The cooperation between the two sides is very difficult. However, judging from the current situation, since the Marines dare to go deep into Pyongyang alone, it is inevitable that the Marines and the Marines will dare to go deep into the army to kill Pyongyang,
With the support and commitment of Middle-earth, they have obtained huge benefits that they cannot refuse. What is particularly important is that the Marines who cannot trust Middle-earth can do their best to attack Pyongyang at all costs. The only possibility is that the Marines have no choice at all, and the only way to make the Marines surrender is absolute strength, enough to kill their powerful strength, thus forcing the Marines to obey and have to charge for Middle-earth."
Hearing this, the three generals nodded repeatedly and agreed with Yizhi Wende's analysis.
"Is the real situation as we speculated, and there is no evidence at the moment, so it is obviously inappropriate to take the initiative. Of course, it is also unfavorable to just defend passively. If you are not careful, you may lose your initiative. Therefore, my suggestion is to send an army to the north of Dading Hebei first and support Huicheng 150 miles away. While maintaining the city, he will delay the enemy's attack speed, and inquire about the enemy's background, find out the details of the enemy. Just wait for the situation to be clear, and then make a decision."
Shao Shilin, Shi Xin, and Quan Baicao bowed to his promise.
"In addition, the matter of approaching the enemy scouts to Qingchuan is reported to Pyongyang quickly and should not be delayed."
Shao Shilin agreed repeatedly, and then asked, "The incident of going north to block the attack should not be delayed. Please ask the general to issue an order quickly."
Yizhi Wende did not hesitate and pointed at Shao Shilin. "You will immediately lead a army north, and the light train will be simple, and you will travel day and night. You must arrive in Huicheng tomorrow morning."
