Chapter 191 is to let you besiege the city
Although the military intelligence of the Shu army was not as good as that of the Snow tribe, the Qin army mobilized frequently and on such a large scale, so the news naturally reached Lian Xiao.
Lian Xiao has the courage of a general, but he does not have the ability to plan the overall situation.
To put it simply, even if you give him an army of millions, he will probably only lead the army to charge forward.
This is a fierce general, not a commander-in-chief.
Therefore, facing Xiao Yuan's tactics, he chose the simplest and most direct response method, which was to divide his troops into four directions to attack.
In this way, it can be said that it is exactly what Xiao Yuan wants.
Now the Qin army, excluding Su Yi's group, is divided into four groups. From the big map, they are connected into a horizontal line. They use Tongguan behind them as a food and grass transportation point to launch a large-scale attack on Shu.
At this time, it is not a decisive battle between the whole army, but a test of the ability of the generals on both sides to command the troops in various fortresses.
Obviously, the Qin army is full of talents. Su Yi and Zhao Mu are all handsome and talented people.
A few days later, Su Yi's troops arrived.
After resting in Tianshui, he had already successively attacked Longyou and other places, and penetrated more than 200 miles into Shu.
There are falcons circling over the military camp.
Not long after, a leader of the Snow tribe walked into the Chinese army's tent through the curtain, then knelt down on one knee, cupped his fists and said, "General, a letter from my lord."
"Oh? Show it to me quickly." Su Yi was shocked.
When the letter was presented, the latter unfolded it and read it carefully:
Today, the main force of our army has marched through Baiyu, Jianning, Yong'an, and Shicheng, and the four key roads, with the intention of expanding the front line. However, the battlefield situation is changing rapidly, and the general can no longer stick to the previous strategic deployment. He should make his own decisions on how to use his troops.
Looking forward to a big victory...
This letter shows Xiao Yuan's open-mindedness and trust in Su Yi.
After the latter read it, he immediately unfolded the military map and lowered his head to study it carefully.
At this time, all the generals in the tent couldn't bear it any longer. Peng Shuang was the first to ask: "General, does the Lord's letter tell you about our troops' next military strategy?"
"My lord, let me make my own decision." Su Yi continued to look at the map.
"Ah? This..." Everyone looked at each other, and Peng Shuang asked again: "Then what are the general's plans next?"
"Wait." Su Yi raised his hand slightly, because he hadn't finished studying the map yet.
It wasn't until a while later that he looked away, then quickly walked to the sand table, pointed at the simple terrain on the sand table and said, "Everyone, please take a look."
"Now, according to our army's intelligence, Shu general Chen Tai is leading an army of fifty thousand and is about to have a head-on confrontation with our troops."
"And our current location is here." As he spoke, he pointed to the sand table and continued:
"Therefore, I intend to station troops in Rongcheng and Fucheng respectively to prevent Chen Tai from attacking."
"And these two cities can also respond to each other on the left and right. If the two cities of Chen and Tai attack at the same time, they will not be able to attack. If they attack one, the other city can also support them at any time."
After he finished speaking, all the generals also began to stare at the sand table, but soon, a partial general said: "The general's strategy of resisting the enemy is indeed the best, but look here."
The general said, and pointed to a place on the sand table: "Rongcheng and Fucheng are dozens of miles apart, and there are important mountain passes. If Chen Tai leads his army to attack one place, then our army's
I'm afraid support will be hindered."
What the general said was not unreasonable, but when Su Yi heard this, he waved his hand indifferently: "Hey? These don't matter, it doesn't matter."
"But general..." The general wanted to say something else.
But Su Yi had already interrupted him and said: "It is my intention that General Peng Shuang will lead an army of five thousand and station in Rongcheng. The main force of our army will station in Fucheng. If Chen Tai attacks you, I will immediately support you. If Chen Tai attacks you, I will immediately support you."
If you attack me, the general will wait for my military orders."
His decision was made so quickly. When people heard the words, they couldn't help but look at each other. Peng Shuang didn't think anything, but clasped his fists and said: "My lord has already given instructions when I came. The general is the commander-in-chief of our department. I have given the military order, An Gan
Don’t obey.”
"Okay! That's it! Everyone, go down and prepare!" Su Yi waved his hand directly.
"No!" All the generals clasped their fists in response, and then retreated one after another.
The general's lips twitched before, but in the end, he bowed and bowed.
According to this strategy, there is a dangerous road between the two cities. If Chen Tai chooses to siege Rongcheng with a large army and then sets up an ambush on the key road, he can complete the strategy of siege and reinforcements. This is what the general was worried about before.
And with Su Yi's military talent, could he not see this? Of course he can!
But he happened to give such an order.
And when Peng Shuang led his army to leave, he specifically asked him to bring more food and grass.
The latter nodded and agreed without thinking much.
The garrisons of Rongcheng and Fucheng have ended here, and Chen Tai has almost arrived at the battlefield.
Then there is a detailed study of the Qin army's military deployment.
In the Shu army's tent, after the scouting horse reported, Chen Tai couldn't help but smile and said: "God is really helping me, I deserve Chen Tai's meritorious service."
"The general is saying..." someone couldn't help but ask.
"Everyone, please take a look." Chen Tai pointed to the sand table: "Now the Qin army is stationed in Rongcheng and Fucheng respectively in an attempt to stop our army. Don't you know that there is an important road between these two cities. By then, our army will only need
Surrounding Rongcheng, the Qin army in Fucheng will definitely support them when they see this, then when the time comes, haha..."
"What does the general mean by setting up an ambush on the main road and besieging the city for reinforcements?" A certain general took over.
"That's right!" Chen Tai said: "The Qin army's arrangements for mutual defense between the two cities were good, but they made a big mistake!"
As he spoke, he shook his head and said: "Su Yi, Su Yi, I thought you would be a difficult opponent, but I didn't expect you to be so useless."
After listening to what he said, the generals of the Shu army also reacted, and then they all agreed:
"What the general said is absolutely true. It seems that the Qin army will definitely lose this battle..."
"Yes, Su Yi's use of troops in this way is tantamount to seeking death..."
"If you can annihilate Su Yi's troops and fight against Qin, the general will have done a great service..." Someone else complimented.
"Haha! Okay! At that time, everyone will follow me to make contributions!"
Chen Tai believed that he had seized the opportunity, and the only place he chose to besiege was Rongcheng.
Two days later, 40,000 Shu troops came to the city, and another 10,000 people set up ambushes along the main roads, preparing to lay siege to the city and mobilize reinforcements.
When the news came back to Su Yi, all the generals were a little anxious. Someone said: "General! The situation in Chengdu is critical now. Our army should provide support as soon as possible! Otherwise, General Peng Shuang will be in danger."
"Why support?" Unexpectedly, Su Yi gave the general a cold look.
"Wha...what?" Pian Jiang was a little confused.
Su Yi said with an indifferent expression: "Chen Tai wants to besiege the city, let him besiege it. If he doesn't besiege it, I will scold him!"
"He surrounds his enemies and we attack ours. We take this opportunity to travel under the stars and night to approach Yizhou!"
"But General, Peng...General Peng Shuang is still in Rongcheng, and there are five thousand soldiers..."
"So what?" Su Yi said without changing his expression:
Chapter completed!
