Chapter 41 Who is the main general?
After everything was settled, Zhang Lingyun was about to announce that he was leaving, but Yun Feng cupped his hands and said: "General, I have a suggestion."
"Oh? Tell me about it?" Zhang Lingyun asked in a good mood.
"Although not one of the enemy troops escaped, this news must not have been kept secret for long. Wei Jiang thought that troops should be sent out to sweep the nearby small Di villages overnight. If it was later than tomorrow, the Di people would probably escape during the night.
"
When everyone heard this, they all felt that it made sense. How could the nearby villages send scout horses to observe the military operation of ten thousand people from afar? If they won, they would immediately rush back to summon the young adults of the clan to share a piece of the pie.
However, Li Bai thought of a question and frowned: "Excuse me, General Yun, how did our army find the Di tribe in the dark night?"
Yunfeng smiled slightly, stood up calmly, took a picture from his arms and presented it to Zhang Lingyun and said: "This picture was drawn by our detective horse. It records the Di villages within a hundred miles nearby. Among them
There are three under 500 Dingkou, and our army happens to have one in each of the three buildings. What does the general think?"
Zhang Lingyun took the picture and looked at it carefully, then passed it to the three people below to circulate among themselves. After a while, he asked: "General Yang, General Li, are you two willing to go?"
Is there any need to think about this? Of course it is a dream, it is equivalent to Yunfeng giving them money. With his cavalry strength, he can privately ask Zhang Lingyun to order the troops to divide into three groups to exterminate these three villages. At that moment, he looked at it gratefully
Yunfeng glanced at him and both came out of the queue and said: "We will go there as we wish!"
Zhang Lingyun nodded. As soon as he raised his hand and before he made a sound, Yunfeng asked again: "Since the Di army is in an siege posture, I think the follow-up troops will arrive in the near future. I wonder if the general has any strategy to retreat from the enemy?"
"Uh~?" Zhang Lingyun was stunned. She was still thinking about this issue before. She was just a share of the spoils. She was so happy that she forgot to mention it. She couldn't help looking at the other three people with some embarrassment and asked: "Do you have any questions about what General Yun mentioned?"
What do you think?"
Dou Tao wondered: "General Yun's words are reasonable, but we don't know the number of follow-up troops of the Di army, so it is really difficult to respond!"
Yunfeng shook his head and said: "We can roughly estimate the number of Di troops."
"Oh?" Zhang Yunling glanced at him and said suspiciously, "General Yun, tell me."
Yunfeng Gong cupped his hands and said: "According to my detailed investigation in Liangzhou, the population under Bo Hong's jurisdiction is about 280,000 to 300,000, and the number under his direct jurisdiction is about 150,000, of which young people account for
Seventy to eighty thousand. Therefore, Wei Jiang will venture to guess that the follow-up troops should be between four and fifty thousand." After looking at the crowd, he saw that they were still confused, so he continued: "Assuming that our army did not appear in time, Di Ren had previously
It is not difficult for the 10,000 troops to capture Yuzhong, but it is not enough to hold on for a long time. Why? Although our Liangzhou army only has 35,000 mobile troops, they are all elite troops. We can counterattack and hold on to the 10,000 Di troops.
It is not difficult to capture Yuzhong. However, the Di army is inferior to our army in terms of military discipline and equipment. Therefore, it will take about 40 to 50,000 to fight against our army, leaving our army with no time to recapture Yuzhong. Bo Hong has already surrendered
It is entirely possible for Liu Yao to mobilize such a large force to participate in the battle without any worries, and the five thousand cavalry in the city can also choose the opportunity to attack our army at the critical moment, leading to our complete defeat."
Everyone was moved when they heard it, but after careful analysis, they felt that it made sense.
Zhang Lingyun pondered: "Does General Yun have any countermeasures?" Unconsciously, she regarded Yunfeng as her backbone.
Yunfeng also saw this. The woman had completely lost her ability to think. She couldn't help but secretly laugh, but her face was solemn: "There are three strategies in the near future. If used at the same time, they can annihilate the enemy and make Pu Hong energetic."
If you are injured, you will no longer have the strength to attack Liangzhou in the next few years. First, send people immediately to ask for help from Gu Zang, and send another 10,000 troops under the command of the general. Second, you must re-establish the camp and stand with your back to the city. And immediately mobilize
The defenders and young men in the city, together with our army, built high ditches and deep fortresses outside the city to resist the enemy. They held on until reinforcements arrived, and then looked for opportunities to fight the enemy decisively! In addition, soldiers and civilians had to be sent to harvest wheat before the enemy arrived. Once the enemy army would
When the enemy arrives, the general will not be willing to lead his troops and file his front first, which can damage the opponent's morale. Third, use surprise troops! In the decisive battle between the two armies, deliver a fatal blow to the enemy!"
The first two points are obvious at first glance, but I am a little confused about the third point because the strength of both sides' troops is clearly stated.
Yang Xuan couldn't help asking: "Where are the strange soldiers?"
Yunfeng smiled slightly and said: "Please help us!"
Zhang Lingyun said thoughtfully: "Are they Qiang people?"
Yunfeng nodded and said: "Yes, they are Qiang people!"
Li Bai said: "Although we in Liangzhou are mortal enemies with the Di people, we also have friction with the Qiang people. They may not help me in Liangzhou to fight off the enemy."
Yun Feng shook his head and said: "There are no eternal enemies in the world. If we have the same interests, we will unite, and if we disagree, we will divide. Yao Gezhong (the leader of the Qiang people) can survive in the gap between Liangzhou and the Di people in a weak state. He is definitely not a fool."
He must have understood the changes in Qinzhou. Now the Di people have become the strongest side without having to station troops on the eastern front. If Yao Gezhong wants to continue to be his Fufeng Gong (Yao Gezhong claims to be the governor of Yongzhou and the guardian of Qiang, Fufeng
Lord), you should understand that we can only work together with Liangzhou to reject the Di people."
Everyone was lost in thought for a moment, but Zhang Lingyun had a strange feeling, as if the leader of the army was Yunfeng and not Zhang Lingyun!
Look, it was Yunfeng who made the plans, it was Yunfeng who charged into the battle, and it was Yunfeng who made the preparations before the rain! Especially since Zhang Lingyun was not involved in today's battle at all, this made her feel panicked. Zhang Lingyun
She is open-minded and will not be jealous of Yunfeng's talent. On the contrary, the stronger Yunfeng is, the happier she is. It's just because among the ten thousand people, not one of them died in her hands!
Just when she was feeling unhappy, Dou Tao's voice interrupted her. Dou Tao asked Yun Feng: "General Yun may have missed something. Since Pu Hong has taken refuge with Liu Yao, Liu Yao is very likely to send troops to help."
, our army will face not only 40,000 to 50,000 tribal troops, but also Liu and Zhao’s regular troops."
Without waiting for Yunfeng's answer, Zhang Lingyun smiled slightly and said: "Mr. Dou is too worried. Liu Yao will never send troops to help Pu Hong. Firstly, Liu Yao's biggest enemy is Shi Le, and he needs to deploy a large army on the eastern front. Secondly, this person is just fighting.
The idea of sitting on a mountain and watching tigers fight was intended to consume the strength of the three parties of Liang and Qin in order to reap the benefits." After saying that, she glanced at Yunfeng with some pride. But she immediately regretted it, because she suddenly
I realized that this kind of behavior had the meaning of being coquettish towards Yunfeng, which should not appear on me as a general. Instead, it felt like a little daughter-in-law asking for favors from her man. I couldn't help but start to recall the time with Yunfeng.
All the interactions within a period of time, suddenly, my heart became a mess.
However, Yunfeng didn't notice Zhang Lingyun's glance. He just saw her inexplicably startled, thinking that she was thinking about his own tactics, so he asked aloud: "May I ask the general, what do you think of the proposal?"
"Ah~?" Zhang Lingyun came back to his senses, quickly composed himself and said: "This is a very good proposal, so I will follow what I said." Then, he glanced at the four people and asked: "Who is willing to persuade Yao Gezhong as an envoy? ?”
The Di people are ferocious, and the Qiang people are even worse! It’s just that the population is scarce, so they rarely take the initiative to cause trouble. If you try to convince Yao Gezhong, who knows if he will come back alive? Suddenly, the other three people dodge their eyes, not daring to look at Zhang Lingyun. But Yunfeng But he didn't care about these, and besides, he was very confident that he could persuade the Qiang people to join forces with him, so he asked for orders: "Please write a letter to the general. I will not persuade Yao Gezhong to send troops to help with his persuasive words."
Zhang Lingyun stared deeply at Yunfeng, and couldn't tell what his mood was at the moment. In short, it was very complicated. After a long while, he sighed and said: "Yun must be careful when doing this. If Yao Gezhong doesn't want to, there is no need to use words to provoke him. Don't offend him."
Yun Feng said gratefully: "Thank you, General, for your care. I will go to Nan'an overnight. If everything goes well, I will be able to return the next day."
Zhang Lingyun nodded, wrote a letter on the spot, sealed it and handed it to Yun Feng, and then said: "In that case, you will retreat and return to the camp to arrange for manpower to exterminate the Di village."
