RNP Chapter 454
Chapter 454
"Sixteen words of the lord..." A trace of doubt flashed across Zhuge Liang's face.
"When the enemy advances, I retreat, when the enemy retreats, I pursue, when the enemy is stationed and I disturb, when the enemy is tired, I fight!" Jiang Wei's face was still a confident smile, "General, military master, aren't these sixteen words exactly when the enemy is strong and I am weak, and the enemy is outnumbered?" When
Fa Zheng passed these sixteen characters to Zhang Xiu, Hao Zhao, Jiang Xu and others, he also passed them on to Zhuge Liang and Li Yan by the way.
However, since Li Yan unified his troops to fight, whether it was raiding Wei County and Chang'an, or attacking Wudu and Yinping, he had an absolute superiority in troops at that time, so he did not understand this guerrilla method of warfare. Although Zhuge Liang is also familiar with the book of soldiers and war strategies, and his wisdom and planning are unmatched, what he is best at is to use regular soldiers, march and fight, be extremely cautious, rarely take risks, and naturally cannot deeply understand the importance and essence of guerrilla strategy.
Jiang Wei was different, although he had not yet led troops to fight alone, but his father Jiang Yu had been a guerrilla general in Western Liang. Of course, this guerrilla general was still different from what we later called guerrilla warfare, but there was also something in common, that is, there were few troops and often penetrated deep into the places occupied by the enemy. Whether it is Western Qiang or Xianbei, Jiang Wei has led thousands of soldiers and horses to deal with it, and Jiang Wei liked to listen to his father's stories of war when he was a child, and he naturally had a high interest in guerrilla warfare.
So when Jiang Wei saw these sixteen words, he was shocked. If my father could fight the enemy according to these sixteen words, how could he have repeatedly lost battles?
Zhuge Liang and Li Yan were both wise men of the world, and they were good at marching and fighting. Now after Jiang Weiyi's reminder, they thought again, and soon, they discovered the wonder.
"Kong Ming, these sixteen words of the lord are really a brilliant strategy!" Li Yan looked very excited, "Although it can't defeat the enemy army quickly, it will make the enemy army commander irritable and annoyed, and at the same time helpless, in the long run, its internal chaos will be chaotic!"
"Yes, as long as we plan well, we can't take the initiative!" In his previous life, Zhuge Liang rarely risked using troops, because when he was in charge of the military power of the Shu Kingdom, he considered too many things, and the Shu Kingdom was the weakest among the three kingdoms, and he couldn't afford to lose, so he didn't dare to take risks. But now it's different, the Han is strong, and each Han army has a strong ability to fight independently, and the lord Liu Liang likes to use dangerous tricks the most, so Zhuge Liang was influenced by it and also changed some of his views.
"Boyo, which way do you think we should take the initiative to attack?" Li Yan seemed to want to test Jiang Wei.
"The Eastern Road Army is marching fast, so naturally it is a head-on blow to them!"
Li Yan and Zhuge Liang both smiled and nodded after listening to Jiang Wei's words, obviously their thoughts were the same.
"Then how to attack?" Zhuge Liang gently shook the feather fan and asked.
"Generals, military divisions, and the Eastern Road Army are arranged in a long snake, stretching for thirty miles to advance, this is a taboo for marching formations, once truncated from the middle, they must not care about each other!" Jiang Wei obviously thought about it for a long time, "Loulan King Shanshan, is the snake head, Wusun King Quincy is the snake belly, Guzi King Bailie is the snake tail, and Yutian King Wei Chi Liang is exactly the seven inches of the snake, and when you hit a snake, you must hit seven inches!"
After listening to Jiang Wei's words, Li Yan and Zhuge Liang were full of shock in joy. This Jiang Wei is only fifteen years old! The mind turned out to be so meticulous, and the sense of smell of marching and fighting was so sensitive, it was exactly what they thought. In time, its achievements will be unmatched.
"Good!" Zhuge Liang and Li Yan applauded at the same time, and the two looked at each other and nodded.
"Come, quickly pass on the two generals Zhao Yun and Ma Chao!"
"No!"
In a short time, Zhao Yun and Ma Chao came to the handsome tent.
"See General, Military Master!"
"The two generals are exempt!"
The two stood aside.
Zhuge Liang looked at Zhao Yun and Ma Chao and shook the feather fan a few times.
"The enemy had three fronts, each of which was thirty to forty thousand, and all cavalry, like our equipment, with horses nailed to the horseshoe and bilateral stirrups added to the saddle. Our cavalry is only five thousand, and I don't know if two generals can dare to attack. "The point will be better than the agitation, Zhuge Liang knows this well.
"Military master, you just give the order, my tiger head Zhanjin spear has long been hungry and thirsty!" After Ma Chao listened to Zhuge Liang's words, he was full of trembling spirit and excitement.
"Military master, my senior brother Zhang Xiu has 5,000 soldiers and horses, and dares to rob Liu Bao's 100,000 iron horse camp, now their troops are divided into three roads, each way is only 30,000 to 40,000 soldiers and horses, why be afraid!" Zhao Yun was full of guts, and once single-handedly broke in and out of Cao Cao's 10,000-horse army, and he was not afraid at all, "Please give the order to the army and the military division, and the last general will attack immediately!"
"Please give the order of the military division!" Ma Chao also couldn't wait to say.
"Zhao Yun, Ma Chao obeys the order!" Li Yan immediately ordered.
"The end is coming!"
"Let the two of you lead five thousand cavalry, one man and two horses, to attack the enemy's Eastern Route Army, the Eastern Route Army is lined up in a long snake formation, and Chi Liang, the king of Khotan, is the seven inches of the long snake, you must cut off the seven inches with lightning speed, and then look for an opportunity to charge."
"No!" Zhao Yun and Ma Chaoyingnuo's voices were very loud.
"Zilong, Meng Qi, we only have these five thousand cavalry, and this big battle will be very long, this battle is only the beginning, we must not fight hard with the enemy army." Zhuge Liang reminded, "You two bring enough food and grass equipment, the Eastern Road Army has a total of 30,000 troops, you must withdraw from the battlefield before other reinforcements arrive, you don't need to return to Xiping City for the time being, repair in the nearby small county town, if there are other orders, we will fly pigeons to pass on the book!"
"Don't worry, the last general remembers!"
After Zhao Yun and Ma exceeded the marshal's tent, they fed the soldiers, brought all the grain and grass equipment, and left Xiping City two hours later.
Guizi, Wusun, Loulan and Khotan are the four small countries of the Western Regions. For a long time, they were all vassals of the Han Dynasty, paying tribute and serving as vassals year after year.
However, now that the emperor of the Han Dynasty is in Yecheng, the world is three points, so that these small countries see the opportunity to stand on their own, and they have long ceased to pay tribute to the imperial court.
Under the provocation of the Western Qiang king Midang and the Xianbei king Budugen, the four kingdoms gathered an army of 30,000 and, together with the Western Qiang and Xianbei, attacked the Han Dynasty in a big way. Budugen promised them that after capturing the Central Plains, he would give all of Western Liang to the Four Kingdoms.
Among the four kingdoms, the Loulan Kingdom was the largest, with a total of 12,000 troops, followed by Chi Liang, the king of Khotan, who led an army of 8,000.
According to the agreement of their four countries, the Liangzhou region, whoever occupies it first, will belong to whom.
Loulan Wang Shanshan, in the front, followed by Chi Liang, the king of Khotan. Although Wusun King Quincy and Guizi King Bailie had opinions, they were helpless.
The day's rapid march made them feel a little tired, and the joint camp set up at night was more than 30 miles long, and torches were lit in each camp, and from a distance, it was a long snake that meandered and twisted, boundless.
