In the small courtyard, Qin Yun, Han Weilong, and Shen Wansan were sitting together.
Shen Wansan took out the intelligence map and threw it on the table.
"Currently, Temuying occupies half of the city in the entire Longyou County. Now only the Longyou County City and the two military fortresses flanking the County City are left."
"Now the two military fortresses are personally fortified by the Army God, each with 50,000 troops. These two fortresses are important barriers to the capital. The troops inside are not allowed to move unless absolutely necessary."
"Now, Temuying has at least 250,000 troops, and 150,000 of them are elite cavalry. The remaining 100,000 servants, and some people from the Western Regions and even grassland tribes have been recruited among them."
"The people of these tribes come to fight for money. Often every time they capture a city, Temuying will let them loot for three days to rob the wealth!"
"And as Temuying attacks cities and villages in Daxia, other grassland tribes are also preparing to go east and south to fight the autumn wind in Daxia."
"In order to prevent it, Northern Qi took the opportunity to launch an attack. The God of War ordered that no one in the army in the northern border of Daxia could move, and they continued to send troops to the northern border to fill the line!"
"Currently, Ji Qing has led a hundred thousand troops from Poyang Pass and troops mobilized from various places to Longyou. They will all arrive in less than two days."
"In terms of total military strength, the enemy and we are almost on an even footing. But Daxia cannot delay it. Due to Han Weilong's unauthorized withdrawal of defenses in Dongjun, the alliance armies of the seven countries in Dongjun have already approached the border of Daxia. Once the war becomes intense, Dongjun will The Seven Kingdoms may not come to an end!"
"Of course, there is also the Hexi Corridor that has just been conquered. The Northern Sirius tribe is eyeing it and can go south through the corridor at any time."
“Furthermore, according to reliable information, Temuying is inextricably linked to the Great Khan of the Sirius Tribe. None of us know whether Temuying’s troops include this group of peerless ferocious men from the Sirius Tribe. "
"You know, the Northern Qi cavalry like us who are struggling to resist are just like paper in the eyes of the Tianlang tribe's cavalry."
Han Weilong snorted: "That's not necessarily the case. Once our Han family army charges, we will be invincible in the world!"
Shen Wansan shook his head: "You don't understand. When Your Majesty was the King of Zhenbei, I followed Your Majesty to guard the northwest border. At that time, the Tianlang tribe was still very weak, but it swept across the grassland in just ten years. The tribal royal court.”
"Their cavalry tactics are changeable and flexible. They can come and go like the wind. They can confront the enemy head-on and attack in roundabout ways. Moreover, they never worry about logistical support. Surviving in barren land all year round, their soldiers can survive in any difficult conditions. Survive.”
"Han Weilong, your Han family army, without me allocating money and manpower to fully support your logistics, let alone fight, you can successfully walk from the eastern border of Daxia to Longyou, and you will not starve to death."
Han Weilong looked embarrassed. He thought carefully about Shen Wansan's words. After all, he was stationed at the eastern border and never worried about logistical supply issues.
That is the inherent sphere of influence of the Han family, and various military supplies are supplied by large business groups, and the supplies are abundant.
When he came to Longyou, he heard many soldiers complaining about poor food and poor horse feed.
You know, raising cavalry is a waste of money. Not only do the people need to eat well, but the horses also need to be well fed, and the maintenance and repair of various equipment is also astronomical.
Han Weilong actually knew this, so he wanted to make a quick decision.
"Then take advantage of the moment to remove the Iron Wolf King's vanguard camp first, and wait until Marshal Ji arrives with his troops to complete the battle!"
Han Weilong still insisted on fighting first.
Shen Wansan looked at Qin Yun who had been staring at the map without speaking.
"Qin Yun, what do you think?"
Qin Yun drew circles on the map with charcoal.
"What do you think of the valley here?"
Shen Wansan: "This is the Falling Dragon Valley. It is said that the last emperor of Dachen committed suicide here!"
Qin Yun: "If the battlefield is placed here, the front and rear gaps are blocked, and Han Weilong's heavy cavalry charge down the slopes on the left and right sides, can they completely annihilate the Iron Wolf King's vanguard battalion?"
Han Weilong on the side said: "The Iron Wolf King is not a fool. This place is a surefire place for military strategists to lose. Who would take the initiative to dig into his pocket?"
Qin Yun smiled: "If he doesn't drill, it's because he doesn't have enough bait."
Shen Wansan: "What do you mean?"
Qin Yun stroked the circled area with his pen: "Fight while retreating, luring the enemy to go deep, encircling the points for reinforcements, and annihilating the enemy on the move!"
The two of them were confused.
Han Weilong groaned: "Tell me the details!"
"First, fight while retreating, creating the appearance of a defeated army and luring an Iron Wolf King's troops into the encirclement."
"If the opponent doesn't come to support, we will eat his troops. Once they come to support, we will surround and kill them slowly, and then mobilize our troops to form a large encirclement." Qin Yun drew another circle with his pen.
"We use the tactics of making dumplings to eat up their vitality bit by bit."
Han Weilong's eyes lit up. He had never seen this tactic in any art of war.
In fact, Qin Yun also learned this trick from the liberation battle in his previous life.
Encirclement and reinforcements, cutting up the battlefield, encirclement and counter-encirclement, these tactics that were familiar to the past life are quite explosive in today's era.
It is not an exaggeration to use one sentence to reduce dimensionality.
In fact, the tactics of the ancients were often monotonous due to equipment and various factors.
Those so-called big battles are actually just shooting with bows and arrows, catching and killing.
On the battlefield of the ancients, the word "brave" was important. Anyone who used his brains and knew how to make detours would be praised by history books. Of course, this does not mean that ancient generals did not understand the art of war.
On the contrary, in ancient wars, generals paid more attention to the art of war, but their main consideration was still in attacking and defending cities.
Field battles are more about one-on-one battles or simple ambush.
Listening to Qin Yun's explanation, both of them began to fall into deep thought and think about the feasibility of it.
Han Weilong asked: "What about the second thing? How to lure the enemy deeper?"
Qin Yun smiled: "The second step naturally depends on the acting skills of the two of you. Once the matter is settled, I will write to Marshal Ji and ask him to come in time to stop the reinforcements and complete the final third step."
Han Weilong: "What a joke, how could Marshal Ji listen to you?"
Qin Yun smiled: "He will definitely listen to me."
Shen Wansan on the side asked the question he was most concerned about: "Then how to rescue Shen Yue?"
Qin Yun narrowed his eyes and said, "I am going to go to the Iron Wolf King's camp as the Great Xia peace envoy to find out what's going on and confirm Shen Yue's safety!"
"No!"
"If you go like this, what's the difference between a sheep entering a tiger's mouth? Temuying will never let you back."
Shen Wansan flatly refused. If his daughter was not rescued by then, and another prince got involved, wouldn't it be a joke?
Qin Yun said: "Don't worry, I want to leave, no one can stop me!"
"Besides, I won't go there so recklessly. I will send someone to respond."
Han Weilong: "Go ahead. I, Han Weilong, will definitely bring someone to pick you up. When the time comes, I will wait for you to come out and use you as bait to complete the first step."
Qin Yun was speechless. He just wanted to praise: "Han Weilong, you are so nice!"
"Of course I am a good person!" Han Weilong was stunned for a moment, then emphasized.
Qin Yun also hoped that this ancient general would understand the hot jokes of his previous life.
"Without further ado, it's settled, let's take action!"
…
At the same time, the Iron Wolf King's vanguard camp.
Shen Yue pretended to finish eating the sleeping pills that Long Po sent her, and lay on the bed wrapped in a quilt. When the servant left, she quietly opened the bed board, and underneath was the tunnel she had dug for more than 20 days.
She would dig quietly at night and hide the soil in her sleeves. During the day when the wind was blowing, she would quietly spread the soil on the lawn without anyone noticing.
Now, she has almost dug a passage.
Every time she dug, she muttered: "Die Qin Yun, stinky Qin Yun, dig you to death, dig, dig..."
It seems that digging is more powerful this way.
But just when Shen Yue was digging hard, a sound suddenly came from outside the room.
"Miss Shen Yue, there is a messenger from the Golden Tent, saying that the king wants to give you a gift!"
Shen Yue immediately stopped, moved the bed board, spread it out, and pretended as if nothing had happened.
"I know, I'll come right away, change clothes first!"
"Miss Shen, do you want to help?"
"Need not!"
