It's nearly noon.
Everything is done.
In front of Wang Daying Heroic Soul Hall.
Countless soldiers of Wang Daying formed a neat square formation.
Retreating like a tide towards the outside of the Hall of Heroes.
Although the speed is fast, the order is exceptionally orderly.
Xu Yi, wearing a nine-shaped crown and a black nine-piece crown, stood upright in front of the Loyalty Monument in the Hall of Heroes.
Pressing the hilt of Zhanyuan's knife with one hand, his eyes looked at the countless stern square formations in front of him with endless majesty.
Dozens of generals dressed in pitch-black armor lined up on both sides of Xu Yi with upright postures and solemn expressions.
A tall monument of about ten feet covered with a little soil, and a hall full of coldness and majesty, stood quietly behind everyone.
[It has been running stably for many years. It is comparable to the old version of the book chasing tool and is used by all old bookworms.
He stared blankly at the huge sand table placed in front of him.
The sand tray, also known as the rice tray, has been around since ancient times.
At first, rice grains and other materials were piled up to form the layout of mountains and rivers, the distribution of roads, enemy passes, etc.
Later, it was supplemented by quicksand and other objects to outline the distribution of water sources such as rivers and lakes.
Of course.
Throughout the long history.
But no sand table in the Enemy Realm is as detailed as the thing in front of you.
At the same time, the trends of mountains and rivers, road distribution, enemy passes, rivers and lakes, etc. are all available.
Every mountain, every road, every pass, and every river is marked with detailed specifications.
Even the power of the tribe behind it, its tribe's position on the grassland, and whether there are enemies around it are all clearly marked.
After more than thirty personal guards disappeared completely in the lobby of the military aircraft building.
Xin Sixuan, who was sitting in the lower left corner, gradually came back to his senses from his stunned state.
"Dare...dare I ask your lord, this...this sand table was...made by Li Shoushan?"
Xin Sixuan stood up, bowed respectfully to Xu Yi, and then asked for enlightenment.
"Exactly."
Xu Yi looked away from the sand table and nodded slightly.
As soon as these words came out, expressions of ecstasy flashed across the faces of Xin Sixuan, Qu Baotian and other generals.
There is a saying in the art of war: "The terrain has smooth terrain, there are obstacles, there are branches, there are narrow places, there are dangers, and there are distances." ,
I can go there and he can come. It is called Tong.
Those who are Tongxing will first live in Gaoyang to benefit the grain road and fight for their benefit.
You can go there, but you can't go back. It's called hanging ears.
If the enemy is hanging, the enemy will be unprepared and will be victorious. If the enemy is prepared, the enemy will be unable to defeat and it will be difficult to return, which is disadvantageous.
It's not good for me to go out, and it's bad for him to go out. It's called a branch.
The branch shape means that although the enemy can benefit me, I can't get out; if I lure him away and make the enemy attack him halfway, it will be beneficial.
If I occupy a pass first, I will fill it up to wait for the enemy; if the enemy settles there first, don't follow if it's full; if it's not full, follow it.
If there is a dangerous situation, I will occupy it first, and I will stay in Gaoyang to wait for the enemy. If the enemy positions it first and lures them away, do not follow.
Those who are far away will be difficult to challenge, and the battle will be disadvantageous.
All these six are the way of the earth, and they cannot be ignored until they are appointed.
It can be seen how important the battle of terrain is in war.
Therefore, there is a military art saying: "The terrain is determined by the help of soldiers, predicting the enemy's victory, and calculating dangers near and far, which is the way of a general." ,
in short.
A wise general must be able to correctly judge the enemy's situation, carefully examine the terrain's dangers, and accurately calculate the distance of the road.
If you can do this and then direct the battle, it will be like divine help.
Of course.
Make bricks without straw.
If you are marching and fighting, you have to sharpen your spear in front of the battle.
They only rely on a poorly detailed map, a guide to the enemy's territory that is difficult to tell whether it is true or false, or a scout's spying on the enemy before the battle.
How can a general be confident? How can it be adapted to local conditions?
But Li Shoushan was different.
He was originally a horse pawn under Zhao Fusheng, the third son of former general Zhao Qing.
He accompanied Zhao Fusheng in several campaigns in Mobei.
After the decisive battle in Mobei.
He was captured in the tent of King Hunxie of the Xiongnu. ….
After a life of escaping through many dangers.
It would be useless to travel alone with the Qingyang River all over the mountains and rivers in the northern desert.
The sand table he made is so detailed that it is shocking.
That's why.
As far as Xin Sixuan, Qu Baotian and other generals are concerned.
Obtaining this sand table is like receiving divine help.
Xu Yi looked at the excited generals with the corners of his mouth raised slightly.
After the mood of the generals gradually calmed down.
Xu Yi stood up from the imperial chair and looked deeply at a slightly majestic mountain peak in the sand table.
Upon seeing this, all the generals stood up silently and stood on both sides of the sand table with serious faces.
Xu Yi slowly stretched out his hand and pointed at the slightly majestic mountain peak.
Then he said in a deep voice: "This mountain is called Minghu."
"In mid-October, the remnants of Li Guangli's army and the reinforcements of Yu Yafu's army under King Dai's command came."
"Here we should cooperate with the outside, attack from the north and the south, and turn defeat into victory in one fell swoop."
"General Li Ling's troops from the Northern Expedition and reinforcements from various kings have arrived here one after another."
"After all the soldiers and horses gathered together, they came out of Minghu with the momentum of great victory, hoping to take advantage of the victory to pursue and destroy the Zuo Dun tribe in one fell swoop."
"But nothing."
"Mu Liangha, the king of Xiongnu in the right valley, came quickly with reinforcements."
"The Ten Thousand-length Tiefu Xiong Tribe and Zuo Dun Tribe under his command joined forces."
"Although they are still not the enemies of our cavalry, they are somewhat capable of protecting themselves."
"From late October to mid-November."
"In more than 20 days, I marched more than 200 miles north towards the cavalry and destroyed more than 100 Xiongnu tribes, large and small."
"During this period, although Zuo Dun's troops were harassed from time to time, they had no fighting power at all."
"However."
"Just when the army is marching north again."
"Mu Liangha, the king of Xiongnu Youguli, brought 20,000 elite cavalry to fight our army head-on."
"Zuo Dun, King of Zuo Guli of the Xiongnu, has eight thousand wolf guards and ten thousand fearless cavalry of Tiefu Xiong."
"I am attacking from the left side of the army."
"There are nearly ten thousand Xiongnu herdsmen who are constantly restraining our army on the right side."
"This battle will end with our army retreating a hundred and fifty miles."
"Nearly 30% of Dai Wang's five thousand soldiers were lost in this battle."
"Nearly 20% of the five thousand soldiers under the King of Liao were lost in this battle."
"Nearly half of King Zhao's five thousand soldiers were lost in this battle."
"Nearly 20% of the five thousand soldiers of the King of Han were lost in this battle."
"General Zhengbei's 8,000 soldiers accepted the post of empress. After the war, only 3,000 of the 5,000 infantry remained, and only 500 of the 3,000 cavalry remained."
"Since the battle at Minghu Mountain, Li Guangli's department has rarely seen any attrition."
"Today, the strength of the army is still around 5,000."
The words are over.
All the generals on both sides of the sand table in the lobby on the first floor of the military aircraft building frowned.
It is obvious that there is almost no difference in military strength between the enemy and ours.
And one side is carrying the power of endless victory.
In such a situation, even if you are alone, you will be attacked by the enemy.
You should also meet your opponent in chess. .
Ice tea is always there
