Chapter 1120 Strategy for destroying Rong

Bartu's fighting spirit was very high, and what he said was indeed worth considering in terms of war.

When two sides fight, you have to win to have the right to speak and take the initiative. This is the eternal truth.

But what they didn't know was that King Xiao Yuan of Qin did not want to fight any peace with them this time, but wanted to completely eliminate the troubles of the Western Rong.

The senior general of Bai Rong had a disagreement. King Xirong thought for a long time and decided to adopt Bartu's opinion.

The entire Western Rong was dominated by Bai Rong, with military strength of about 130,000. Other Rongs, such as Di, Qiang tribes, were also partially armed, with about 60,000 to 70,000 people. In other words, the total force that the King of Xirong could mobilize on the surface was 200,000.

Seeing that he made a decision, Zhekang wanted to say something else, but the King of Xirong had already begun to issue orders.

With Baltu as the main general, he led a hundred thousand troops to support Heishi. At the same time, he ordered Di and Qiang to send troops to destroy the Qin army in Quanqiu.

Bartu was excited to take the order, but as soon as the matter was discussed, Zhekang hurriedly caught up with him, pulled his sleeve, and said with concern: "It is not a wise move for you to insist on the battle. The current Qin army is not the Qin people in your father's words! The Qin King Xiao Yuan is even the king of tigers and wolves. Once defeated, he will be in danger of destruction of the country!"

"Get up! I will not be with the cowards!" Bartu shook his arm and strode away.

Oh! Looking at his back, Zhekang cried sadly. He deeply understood that he had defeated Qingshan with Gule at that time. At that time, the Qin army had already had extremely strong combat power. Today, the Qin King's attack on the princes of the Central Plains would only be even more terrifying!

But he had a military stain. Once he proposed peace, he would be said to be afraid of being beaten by the Qin army. The King of Xirong did not listen to him at all, and he had no choice.

Zhekang believed that the military strength of the two sides was very different and could not fight at all, but Bartu was full of confidence. After receiving the order, he immediately gathered the army and began to march towards Blackstone City.

At the same time, Qinguan.

The 100,000 soldiers from the Qinzhou camp have arrived here, including 80,000 infantry and 20,000 cavalry.

At the place where the troops were discussed, Xiao Yuan had received a battle report from Yang Heng and was discussing the next strategy for using troops with the generals.

He skipped the Black Stone massacre and said, "Black Stone City has been occupied by our army. With Yang Heng's troops, it should be no problem to defend it for a period of time. The Western Rong military intelligence is not as good as our army. It can be asserted that they do not know how many troops we have used in total."

In other words, the Xirong side has not yet joined the battlefield, and they cannot get close to Qin Pass.

"What the king means is to fight for information?" A general asked tentatively.

"It depends on General Lin Chu." As he said that, Xiao Yuan also looked at the latter.

Lin Chu immediately clasped his fists and said, "Please rest assured, the generals will definitely find out the movements of the main force of the Western Rong as soon as possible."

Xiao Yuan nodded and then deployed: "General Su Yi, lead 30,000 troops and head north first. If Wang He and his team are in danger, assist in the rescue. If necessary, meet with each other. If it is not hindered, act at the right time."

"No!" The latter held his fists and took the order.

Xiao Yuan continued: "I am 70,000 main force to support Black Stone and be ready to go up and backward at any time."

This is to fight multiple war zones, with its main force, mainly responsible for encircling and suppressing the main force of the Western Rong. Wang He and his unit were used to restrain confusion, and Su Yi interspersed in the battlefield.

Having said that, Shangguan Wenruo stood up and bowed and said, "In the battle of the Western Rong, the king's strategic deployment is the best strategy, but I think that to destroy the country, you only need to wipe out the armed forces of the Western Rong King. There is no need to kill all the people of the Western Rong."

Before Xiao Yuan could speak, Su Yi was dissatisfied and said: "What are you saying, Lord Shangguan? The Western Rong has always been invaded by the territory, and the hatred of me, Qin cannot be resolved. Only by killing them all can external troubles be completely eliminated."

"The general's words are wrong." Shangguan Wenruo said: "Although the population of Xirong is only more than two million, they are brave and courageous. If they are killed and there is no way to survive, they will be the whole nation."

"Although our country is not afraid, at that time, we will inevitably use hundreds of thousands of troops. More importantly, the place where horses are produced cannot be abandoned."

As he said that, he said again: "The people who fought with the Central Plains within the Xirong were just the Bai Rong lineage of the Xirong king, such as the Di and Qiang tribes. They advocated peace and could be fully appeased."

"I dare to assert that when the king completely eliminates the Bairong clan, there is no need to send envoys, Di Qiang tribes, they will bow their heads and surrender. At that time, with our Central Plains cultural heritage, we can integrate them and make the Xirong region truly become our territory."

In short, Chinese.

His proposal is actually very good.

However, Su Yi snorted and said with a lot of opinions: "Hmph, every time Lord Shangguan joins the army, he always recommends that the king and his wife be kind, which is really ridiculous."

"How can this be a woman's kindness?" Shangguan Wenruo defended: "Even if our army kills them all, will our own national strength and strength be severely damaged and burned and killed completely? Wouldn't such a huge Xirong territory become an unman's land?"

One commander and the other strategist, the two of them started arguing, and the generals also stared at each other and did not dare to interrupt easily.

From a political perspective, it is better to calm and recover by blindly suppressing force than to calm down.

To destroy the Bairong faction is equivalent to destroying the Western Rong Kingdom. There is indeed no need to kill all the people of other tribes. Letting them continue to herd sheep and herd horses and gradually integrate into semi-farming is the best strategy.

Xiao Yuan was wearing a black brocade dress, with a jade hairpin tied his hair, and paced back and forth above with his hands behind his back. After thinking for a while, he decided to adopt Shangguan Wenruo's opinion and said, "Appoint Wang He to burn down the plain east of Quanqiu, isolate the people of Di Qiang and other tribes, and the possibility of herding horses and sheeping in the Bairong area."

Nomadic peoples, different from farming and settled, will migrate everywhere from time to time, and burning the grasslands will also be a heavy blow to them.

Once cattle, sheep and horses lose their forage, their strength will be greatly reduced.

Next, Xiao Yuan and his generals focused on analyzing the military strategy of eliminating the Western Rong.

The biggest feature of the Western Rong army's combat is that it is its flexibility and mobility, and it mainly uses blitzkriegs, giving full play to the advantages of cavalry. Just like in the past, invading border areas, winning, burning, killing, looting, and failing, and then escaping immediately.

The weaknesses are also obvious, their endurance is poor, and their equipment and weapons are not as good as those of the Central Plains dynasty, which has caused their army to have very low abilities in siege and defend cities. We should seize this feature and derive targeted positional tactics in field battles.

Comprehensive conclusion: Infant phalanxes, fortifications are built, small-scale impact wars should be avoided, and large-scale wars should be lured to fight, and annihilated them in one fell swoop.
