This strategy sounds complicated, but in fact it is very clear. It means to defend with a small force and move with a large force.
When no one spoke, Cheng Ping said again: "Just like Jialing Pass, we have 250,000 troops. We can leave 100,000 to defend the King of Qin, and another 150,000 to fight in multiple places, either in cooperation with General Huang, or in roundabout ways. Fuyang battlefield is possible, there is no need to use all the troops for defense."
"Similarly, there are 200,000 troops in Fuyang War Zone, and 100,000 can be mobilized to participate in encirclement and suppression tactics."
After he finished speaking, a general couldn't help but said: "But what if this happens and the defense line shakes."
Cheng Ping looked at him: "With a hundred thousand troops, can't we defend Jialing Pass? Even if we really can't defend it, can we withstand it for three to five months, no problem? And in these three to five months, the number of troops we mobilized outside , the encirclement and suppression has been completed a long time ago. If we take ten thousand steps back, even if there is an accident, the external forces can return to the defense as soon as possible. "
Cheng Ping suggested changing the battle flexibly and adopting a strategic approach of divisional encirclement and suppression.
This is a proactive attack based on the national war situation.
After hearing this, everyone looked at each other at first, and then they all fell silent and began to think deeply.
The Spirit King also kept touching his chin and rolling his eyes.
Cheng Ping said again: "Defending the war will only keep our army passive. Under the continuous invasion of King Qin, our land will be eroded step by step without knowing it. If we want to reverse the war situation, we must defend." In order to attack, please make a decision, Your Majesty."
After saying that, he gave a salute without urging, and quietly waited for the result.
King Ling thought for a long time, looked around and said, "What do the generals think?"
The Ling Army generals all began to ponder, and someone said: "Zone encirclement and suppression, from a tactical point of view, is not impossible, but I am afraid that the King of Qin will also take countermeasures."
"Then the Qin Army will be led by our noses throughout the entire battlefield," Cheng Ping said.
The general thought it was true, clasped his fists and said, "Sir, what you said makes sense."
"Since we need to carry out encirclement and suppression in different areas, we should clearly define the first target. I don't know what your plan is for the first battle." Someone else asked.
"Of course it's the Jingyang War Zone." Cheng Ping said calmly: "Su Yi is the first commander-in-chief of the Qin State. The King of Qin even praised him as a military genius. He must not be allowed to continue to break through from the center line. As long as he will Its annihilation not only shocked the Qin State, but also our entire country."
"In this case, I will have no objections."
"I have no objection -"
All the generals followed in unison.
"Well..." Seeing this, King Ling nodded slowly, with a stern look in his eyes and said: "Then just follow what Master Cheng said! Move 150,000 troops from Jialing Pass, and at the same time send an order to Bu Shuo, let him Divide the troops from Fuyang, use the north and south routes, and cooperate with General Huang Zu to take the lead in annihilating Su Yi's tribe!"
King Ling adopted Cheng Ping's suggestion. In fact, this change in strategic direction was very good, because it could not only carry out encirclement and suppression, but also successfully contain the Qin army's attacks on all fronts.
To put it simply, if Su Yi's troops were in danger, Xiao Yuan would have to save them, so that the Ling Army could become the main force.
On the other side, Hui Fung.
Xiao Yuan was not in a hurry to attack Jialing Pass, but was preparing to lay out a grand strategy to ensure that millions of Qin troops could join forces after Jialing.
This is overwhelming, but to complete this strategic deployment, the other four theaters need to make progress.
Therefore, he sent a letter to Su Yi, Yan Qi, Zhao Mu, and Sun Qi respectively.
Tell Su Yi that he can change from advancing straight east to attacking southeast.
Yan Qi was ordered to cross the Yellow River in November.
Order Zhao Mu to contain all Wei Guang's troops.
Sun Qi was ordered to defeat Murong Yan in the winter battle at the latest.
The highest military orders from both sides are being transmitted to various theaters.
In the Dingyuan area, Zhao Mu faced off against Wei Guang, a famous general from the Ling Kingdom.
Of all the battlefields, this is the most stable.
Because Zhao Mu is too 'cautious'!
He was so cautious that he was originally on the offensive side, but he still didn't move his troops. Not to mention the decisive battle, he didn't even fight a few small battles.
The Qin army here seemed to be here to defend the border. In the end, Wei Guang became impatient and took the initiative to attack several times.
But every time he attacks, he will encounter deep ditches and high bases, and he will be attacked head-on. Once he withdraws, Zhao Mu will seize the opportunity and chase him by the tail. When the Ling army turns around, the Qin army stops. Once it leaves, it harasses him again and again. , Wei Guang was made inexplicably irritable, and his mentality had already changed. He even sent his generals to call out the formation many times, and cursed Zhao Mu for being a coward.
On this day, the Ling Army camped.
"Report~~~~"
The spy came running quickly, knelt down on one knee, clasped his fists and said, "General, I just found out that the Qin army has arrived in the Huaiyu area and is completing the fortifications."
"Let's explore again." Wei Guang waved his hand.
"No!" the spy responded and left.
After he left, a general couldn't help but said: "General, since the battle, this Zhao Mu has never dared to fight with our army. How can he go to Huaiyu so well? Could it be that he wants to fight."
"Humph, I don't think so." Another general sneered and said, "Zhao Mu is as timid as a mouse. He is always afraid of the general's reputation. How can he have the courage to take the initiative to attack?"
Wei Guang raised his hand, stopped them and said: "You don't know, this is Zhao Mu's step-by-step strategy. Every time he advances, he makes a defensive posture and forces us to fight. Instead, he takes advantage of the right time and place. , this is the most difficult thing to deal with.”
Wei Guang is not afraid of a decisive battle, but he is afraid of this.
A partial general also said angrily: "This person is really a rat!"
"Well..." Wei Guang touched the short beard on his chin and rolled his eyes. He really wanted to defeat Zhao Mu and had many plans. After a moment, he suddenly said: "Huaiyu area, isn't it? Is there a clear stream?”
"Yes." The deputy general responded immediately.
"After Zhao Mu is stationed in Huaiyu, he will definitely use this clear stream as a water source to draw water for use. If we secretly poison the upper reaches..."
Wei Guang's eyes were dark, and when he said this, he also glanced at the generals.
When people heard this, they were stunned at first, and then they became happy and shouted: "The general is wise! In this way, the Qin army has been poisoned and has no fighting power, so we can annihilate it in one fell swoop without any effort!"
"But poisoning on the battlefield will harm Tianhe." Wei Guang said in a pretentious manner.
As a result, people naturally advised each other: "Soldiers are deceitful. As long as they can defeat the Qin army, there is no need to worry about trivial matters. The general is really worrying too much!"
"Yes, General, the Qin thieves are hateful, it would be better to poison them!" Everyone immediately agreed.
"Then, that's what we'll do?" Wei Guangle said.
He didn't have any hesitation, it was just a high-sounding statement. No matter what method was used to eliminate Zhao Mu, this achievement was definitely certain.
Unexpectedly, a normal military intelligence report gave Wei Guang an idea and came up with such a way to defeat the enemy. The generals of the Ling Army had not made any achievements here for several months, and at this time, they became more or less excited.
