Chapter 448: : A good game of chess

You have to eat one bite at a time, or you will be choked.

The    road is more down-to-earth, and it can’t be a place with an unstable footing.

The recent move of the Han State has big intentions. The appropriate withdrawal of the Han army on the front line is just a necessary adjustment. After all, the number of troops has increased too rapidly in the short term, and many troops have been fighting all year round. No matter what, they should be sorted out. a bit.

"It's just to leave the army near Chaoge and continue to posture that must be rescued by Huan Wen. It is best to attract more enemy troops. If you can't..." Liu Yan is in the garden of Miyagi. The core officials continued to discuss: "If some areas are given up, the Hu people must fill in those gaps again. The introduction is the time for us to send troops to the north."

  The current situation of Han and Shijie Zhao is entangled with each other. As the Han army was split into multiple routes and captured many enclaves, it was a manifestation of chaos and improper use of troops.

Miyagi’s garden does not occupy a large area. The main reason is that Liu Yan usually does not have any leisure and elegant play with flowers and plants. It can even be said that he does not spend much time in Miyagi. Even the few harems follow him most of the time. Patrol.

   In autumn, the leaves of plants turn yellow, and a lot of leaves fall, adding endless yellow color to the field of vision, which is very depressing.

"My lord, the new army should be transferred back to the mainland to counter the rebellion. It's just that..." Ji Chang patted the fallen leaves on his shoulders, frowning and said: "With the 50,000 Imperial Guards as the main force, the 80,000 field corps should be deployed. Is it too risky for 30,000 soldiers to go straight ahead?"

   What kind of arms the Han army should be is what kind of arms, Hu people are also soldiers and people, so Hu people always have an army of hundreds of thousands at every turn.

   With Chaoge as the center of the battlefield, the Han army has about two hundred ten thousand troops there. Of the two hundred and ten thousand, more than 30,000 people are in a situation where they are besieged by about three to four hundred thousand Hu people, and at the same time, 180,000 Han troops surround these Hu people from three sides.

   is a Hu man of three to four hundred thousand, not a Hu Bing of three to four hundred thousand. This point should be clarified and clarified no matter what.

Precisely because there are three hundred to four hundred thousand Hu people, the 180,000 soldiers and horses outside the Han army can pick them up from the three loaves. They only let out the gap in the direction of Yecheng. If the three to four hundred thousand Hu people are really like For the regular army on the Han side, it must be difficult to do it.

"The widow still feels that it will take a long time." Liu Yan is actually very depressed when he is so good at Puyang County. He pointed out: "Shihu has created internal turmoil for us, and the intention is to let us retreat. He is easy to manage and accumulate. National strength. We have already taken the posture of withdrawing troops except for the Chaoge battlefield. He must think that his strategy has succeeded, and that deceiving the enemy is deceiving the enemy, but he does not really want to give them more time. Besides, Shijie territory Compatriots can't wait that long."

   What should I say? In fact, apart from Liu Yan who really cares about the Han descent in Shijie Zhao Kingdom, the others don't pay much attention to it at all. This is related to ideology. The better the background, the more neglected the common people. It is basically regarded as a number and a tool, and it is difficult to show mercy. Liu Yan is different, he has a full set of national concepts.

   Several other people expressed their opinions one after another, but because Liu Yan was firm in their will, what they said basically echoed, and then added some omissions based on the actual situation.

   The current season is October, and there are only less than two months left before the arrival of winter.

According to Liu Yan, it has been almost two years since the Battle of Puyang broke out to this stage. Shijie and Zhao Guo were not fully prepared for the war from the beginning. After nearly two years, they were basically bracing themselves. One thing can be seen from the actions within the territory, that is, they would rather consume human lives to attack the dock and the walled city to raise enough supplies.

   Liu Yan's return to Linzi and the retreat of the Han army on the northern front line are also making a false impression, making people who do not know where they are located think that Han is turning from offensive to defensive.

Turbulence is occurring within the Han country. It is a reality that can be judged without too much deliberate investigation. Based on this foundation, it is normal for the Han army to continue to mobilize in the country to counter the rebellion. It is normal to turn to a defensive position based on common sense. , It is not normal to continue to maintain the offensive.

   After repeated conscription, it is a comprehensive mobilization of stable elite areas and newly occupied areas. According to statistics, the number of troops in Han has approached 750,000.

Among the 750,000 troops, the number of recruits in the first and second phases of the field corps is actually only 270,000. The number of guards in various places is 80,000, and the new army accounted for 200,000. The rest It is the servant army and the slave army.

   Now that the Han Kingdom wants to create the illusion of turning into a defensive position, the troops on the outside are mobilized backwards, and the newly recruited new troops are dispatched everywhere to counter the rebellion, which is a shrinking situation.

   The constant mobilization of the army can make people look dazzled. Only the core class knows what they want to do, and more people are confused and puzzled.

  On this day of August 19th, Ran Min, who was in Fangtou, had finished freshening up early in the morning. He was waiting for the arrival of the thirty thousand imperial guards. At the same time, the tiger army came.

Since the main battlefield of the Han army is Chaoge, the generals who had commanded multiple routes were naturally on the scene. They were summoned at dawn and gathered from various places to Ran Min’s big tent, and they saw it. Ran Min couldn't hide his excitement. Seeing Wang Meng was there, he immediately guessed that something big would happen.

   Ran Min waited for the coming generals to arrive, without any nonsense, and said directly to Wang Meng: "Go ahead."

Wang Meng came with the edict and received Ran Min’s sign without delay. He thought of Liu Yan’s will, but first announced the promotion of Ran Min as General Zhengbei. He clearly pointed out that Ran Min led the army in the Northern Expedition, and then announced some more. Person’s promotion appointment.

   "The king's will is very clear." Ran Min had an exciting reason. After the appointment of General Zhengbei, he became the first general of the Han army. He looked around the crowd, focused on Xu Zheng, Xie An, Li Kuang, Qian Jian, etc., and said solemnly: "This Northern Expedition will only be able to fight unless it receives another order from the king. It’s where you go."

   Chaoge is one hundred and eighty miles away from Yecheng from a flat map, but in fact it must be more than one hundred and eighty miles, after all, the road is not straight.

   Xu Zheng looked at the energetic Ran Min, feeling somewhat depressed. His general post of Zheng Beizhong Lang remained unchanged, but his title was raised by two ranks. Depressed and depressed, but he knew something very well. It was not accidental that Ran Min became General Zhengbei. In addition to his military exploits, there was one of the most important factors, that is, the original Ran Min's army was consumed a bit too much.

   After the Ran clan was gone, the original Ran Min army was reorganized and entered the Han army more than 80,000. These people were not handed over to Ran Min for direct command, but were assigned to Xie An and Huan Wen. Huan Wen got some missions to attack Chaoge, and the troops he brought with him were very badly damaged. Ran Min hasn't had any gossip for a long time, why the center must give Ran Min some affirmation and compensation.

   After finishing talking about the overall situation, Ran Min once again showed a vigorous and vigorous side, and made a strong name: "Xie An, Li Kuang."

   Xie An and Li Kuang stood up and performed the salute.

"Xie An led the headquarter to detour to the north, cutting off the path of the enemy's retreat." Ran Min issued the order and handed it to Zhang Shi for filing. Then he looked at Li Kuang and said: "Li Kuang led the headquarter to force Yecheng from the swing out. After making a false shot, he moved towards Changle."

   Xie An’s headquarters has 50,000 soldiers and horses, and Li Kuang’s headquarters also has 50,000 soldiers and horses. One is in the west and the other is in the east. They will eventually turn around towards the back of Chaoge's enemy, which is equivalent to using pliers to cut off Chaoge's back path.

"The rest are waiting to follow the general." Ran Min said and stood up: "Ask if you don't understand, go back to the headquarters if you don't have any doubts." After a pause, he added: "Qian Jiantong, Li Tan, you stay. Down."

   There must be doubts. Most people thought that they wanted to take a defensive position. What has just happened shows that they guessed wrong. There are not too many things to say at the meeting, only the movement of this side of the battlefield, everyone will think about new changes in the situation.

  Since the racial collision erupted, Qian Jiantong has been somewhat complicated recently. He originally thought he would be transferred from the Tiger Army, or transferred back to Linzi to idle, or transferred to an unimportant front, but he did not expect that those things would not happen.

The Hu Ben Army is a very important arm of the Han country. Although it has only 8,000 staff, it can be said to be an absolute elite force. The Qian Jian who was left behind is also sullen. He feels that he will stay in the tent for the next moment. Wang Meng of Wang Meng said that it would not surprise him at all to say that the king has transferred new personnel to the leader of the tiger army.

"Shi Hu himself has withdrawn to Yecheng, and most of the Dragon Guards also retreated. These Huren in the Chaoge Battlefield are a group of people who have been abandoned." Ran Min saw that Qian Jiantong had something wrong but didn't care, he There are some things that must be said clearly for leaving the two of them: "I was going to use a destructive posture to defeat or annihilate the enemy forces in front of me. Most of the enemy forces don't need to care too much. The Donggong Gaoli, who is unique in Shixuan, needs to be taken seriously."

   Shixuan is the commander of the Chaoge battlefield. His Donggong Gaoli can be regarded as the main force on this battlefield. Shihu also left 1,500 armored equipment and 3,000 heavy infantry.

   "There is no residual heat, no temptation!" Ran Minkeng said forcefully: "What was going to be is to attack with all strength once the general offensive. The Tiger and the Yulin Army will become the selected forwards. You must not be slack in the slightest!"

   Qianjian couldn't help but look at Wang Meng who was standing in the corner, but saw that Wang Meng also looked over and smiled.

   "Seriously!" Ran Min didn't really think much, and shouted at Qian Jian, "I'm going to be talking, what are you distracted by?"

   "This..." Qian Jiantong's heart trembled involuntarily when he was yelled at. Ran Min with double pupils staring at people was actually a bit scary, and he had to say: "The job is wrong, please be punished."

   Ran Min gave some more remarks. After speaking, he waved Qian Jiantong and Li Tan to leave.

   Qianjian, who was out of the big tent, felt a little dazed. It was so strange that he had not been transferred from the tiger army, and even got an important task as a striker.

Li Tan and Qian Jiantong are not generally familiar with each other. Only in the big account, he has discovered that Qian Jiantong's abnormal situation is difficult to persuade. After the big account, only two people are there, and he said, "Su Xiao, don't think too much. "

   Qian Jiantong smiled bitterly and said, "I can't help but think about the current situation."

   Li Tan became a little angry when he heard it, and shouted: "Su Xiao served under the king in Changguang County, and the word Su Xiao was taken by the king. If there is no disagreement, think about it!"

   It is said that the relationship between the two was approached from the killing of Murong Xianbei's father, the envoy of the two sides, and they knew very well why they had their current status. It was the killing of Xiqian Bailiao and Li Mingzhi who made Liu Yan feel guilty. With the emperor to deliberately cultivate, the two are indeed fighting spirits, and now they have become the masters of two special titles.

  From top to bottom, military orders are communicated layer by layer, and some troops that should be withdrawn also withdraw.

   Shi Xuan, who personally presided over the command, found that the Han army was retreating and found Zhang Qun, confused and asked: "The Han army has stopped offensive, and there are already troops retreating. Are they the allies who are being besieged?"

"Your Majesty's call worked. The instability of the Han realm will inevitably cause the Han army to retreat." Zhang Qun understood and learned the number of Han troops retreating, and said confidently: "The hinterland is in chaos and the frontline is difficult to maintain. Abandoning the besieged troops to focus on the rear is what it should be."

   "Oh..." General Shi Xuan smiled suspiciously~www.wuxiamtl.com~ and said a new message: "The situation encountered by Yan Gong is similar. Jizhou Han army launched a wave of offensive to no avail and took the initiative to retreat."

   "This is more telling of the situation." Zhang Qun said confidently: "The puppet king Liu Yan will never allow internal unrest to last too long. He can only mobilize the army from the front to counter the rebellion."

   Shi Xuan is still young after all. Seeing that Zhang Qun was sure, he said with a sigh of relief, "That would be great!"

They surrounded Huanwen’s army for nearly a month and a half. Many people died but they only stripped off a barracks barrier in Huanwen's army. In fact, their morale dropped again and again. It's hard to continue, and continuing to surround Huan Wen's office is hard support, but also for the overall situation of Shihu's arrangement.

"Puppet king Liu Yan has risen too fast, and his foundation is unstable. It is a fact that he has exhausted his troops and consumed huge materials for years." Zhang Qun said it was the usual status quo. He said to Shi Xuan, "Chang said, One drums, two declines, and three exhausts. Now it should be the time when the Han army can no longer maintain an offensive, and it is the time when the prince has made great contributions."

   Shi Xuan was taken aback for a moment, and then asked with interest: "How to say?"

"What should the besieged Han army think about this situation when the reinforcements that have been relieved of the siege are withdrawn?" Zhang Qun apparently already had a plan and said with a smile: "The besieged Han army should be made aware of the facts. They had previously supported reinforcements in the rescue. If they knew that the reinforcements would retreat, even if they could not collapse themselves, their morale would have been lost. The morale rose and fell, and it would be easy for the prince to annihilate the besieged Han army."

   Shi Xuan thought, and felt that what Zhang Qun said was very reasonable, and immediately smiled happily.
