"The marshal wants us to attack in advance and ambush the Feng army before they receive the news?" After considering Li Jiannan's question, Li Qiyue quietly deduced with confusion on his face. Unfortunately, he still didn't think carefully.
"Do you think the Feng Army will not receive the news when our army sets out the next day?" You don't understand why the two generals are so ignorant. They always think in the direction that is beneficial to the Star Army. In order to prevent them from making random guesses, Lan Wu directly Make the problem clear.
Immediately afterwards, the generals noticed the dissatisfaction on Lan Wu's face, and each of them did not dare to ask the reason, and instead focused on thinking about Lan Wu's problem.
"Those Feng troops have most likely received the news of Zhang Yuangang's defeat. In the future, it is very likely that these Feng troops will not march towards Languan again."
"Then where will they go?"
"Broken Wind City."
"Why go to Broken Wind City?"
"Aolan Pass has been breached by our army. Fengguo has lost its main barrier in the west. Those reinforcements will no longer have any geographical advantages when they come to Lancheng. And because it is impossible for several Fengjun forces to gather in Xilan City at the same time, I will I think it would be the best idea for them to turn around and defend Po Feng City."
"General Li's words make sense. If the Feng Kingdom royal family receives the news that Languan Pass has been breached by our army, they will definitely send those Feng troops back to defend Po Feng City."
"Then according to your opinion, Fengjun will march to Pofeng City after receiving the news, and will not come to Aolan City again?"
"Exactly."
"I see."
…
Because of Lan Wu's question, all the Star Army generals finally came to their senses, and each one of them had a correct guess. Among them, the one who was very clear about the current situation was Zhang Ruoxing, the commander of the cavalry camp who had previously insisted not to fight.
"May I ask the marshal, is what General Zhang said true?" After a discussion, Fang Quyin, who initially understood Lan Wu's intentions, directly asked Lan Wu for instructions.
"Nine times out of ten," Lan Wu nodded. At this moment, Lan Wu just wanted to discuss the topic with his subordinates as soon as possible.
"Then how should our army go to war according to the marshal's wishes?" After all, Fang Quyin still pushed the question to Lan Wu.
"Now that you already know my plan, I will stop trying to hide it." Not wanting to waste time with those generals, Lan Wu said directly: "As General Zhang said, everyone in Aolan City already knows about Aolan Pass. There are many people in the city who are busy escaping, and those people will definitely bring the news of Lan City's fall to several Feng troops."
"Once several Feng armies learn about the fall of Languan, the generals who lead the troops will definitely change their marching direction and march towards Pofeng City. It is wise to go to Pofeng City to accept the direct command of the Feng Kingdom royal family. I believe that the Feng Kingdom royal family will also mobilize several groups of Feng troops to Po Feng City."
"In my opinion, it will take some time before all the Feng troops receive the news. I want to send troops as soon as possible because I want to stop those Feng troops before they arrive at Po Feng City as quickly as possible after receiving the news. Down."
"Is there enough time? Our army will not be able to set off until the day after tomorrow. Can we still catch up with those Feng troops by then?" As soon as Lan Wugu stopped, a general immediately questioned.
"There are many mountains between Aolan City and Pofeng City. It would take a long way for the Feng Army to bypass those mountainous areas. As long as our army can catch up with them on the way, we will definitely be able to catch them off guard." Lan Wu was very confident about his plan to ambush Feng Jun halfway.
"The Feng army is divided into several groups. Should we attack only one of them?" Another general asked a stupid question.
"Of course not. Each of the Feng Army's armies has more than 30,000 troops. Together, they have nearly 200,000 troops. They have cavalry, infantry, and archers. They are quite powerful."
Not wanting to hear his subordinates ask stupid questions again, Lan Wu explained directly: "Before those Feng armies joined forces, each army only had tens of thousands of people. Our army still has 150,000 troops. Commander Yi, The meeting can also be divided into several parts, and then led by generals respectively."
"After the troops are divided into several groups, our army will have a slight numerical disadvantage when ambushing the Feng Army. However, with the help of strategies, we can reverse the lack of strength. I am confident enough to use the ambush plan to completely defeat the remaining forces of the Feng Army. It's just that I wonder if you generals are confident?" At this point, Lan Wu finally revealed his entire battle plan.
It was also until this moment that the generals really understood Lan Wu's intention. It turned out that they really wanted to ambush the Feng Army, and they were dividing their forces to fight. It was only because Lan Wu's strategy was so foresight that they had not thought of it in advance.
"My subordinates are willing to lead troops." Thinking that he could not guess even one-tenth of Lan Wu's intentions just now, Lan Xu felt deeply ashamed and at the same time felt a fighting spirit rising in his heart.
"The last general is willing to lead troops to ambush the Feng Army." After Lan Xu, the other generals expressed their willingness to lead troops to fight one after another. In a blink of an eye, only two people were left who had not expressed their stance. Although the two generals hesitated, they did not It's not that Lan Wu's strategy is bad, they just don't want to be the leader.
As for the other generals, they all expressed their agreement when they saw the commander of the camp, so naturally none of them had any objections.
"In this case, all generals, please discuss the specific battle plan with me," Lan Wu said, turning his eyes to the map on the table, and then pointed at the map to explain to General Yiqian the strength of several Phoenix armies and the number of Phoenix armies. In the end, Lan Wu also pointed out the suitable locations on those routes for ambush.
After talking about the plan to ambush Feng Jun, Lan Wu divided his own combat forces into four parts, and then determined the combat command and related auxiliary personnel from among the main generals.
The Star Army's appetite to attack four Phoenix armies at the same time was indeed a bit big, but after Lan Wu told the preliminary plan and the possibility of victory, the generals no longer had any doubts about Lan Wu's arrangement. In the end, those generals and Lan Wu both have the confidence to annihilate Feng Jun.
After General Lan made his plan clear and accepted the fate of the generals one by one, the next thing everyone wanted to discuss was the shortcomings in the plan. But in fact, Lan Wu's plan was very thorough and highly feasible. Many generals felt that It doesn't require further discussion.
In addition, whenever Lan Wu mentioned how to ambush the enemy and let the soldiers of the three battalions show their strengths, the generals looked excited, as if they had seen how they defeated the Fengguo army.
During Lan Wu's discussion with the generals, Lan Ze wiped the sweat from his forehead from time to time, feeling nervous and relieved. Lan Wu's high strategy frightened him, but at the same time he was very happy that Lan Wu was standing with them. On the other hand, when he and a group of generals listened to Lan Wu's detailed explanation of the battle plan, he was also extremely excited.
According to Lan Wu's reminder, not long ago, he had written a letter to the royal family of the Star Kingdom, asking the royal family to send civil servants to take over the city they built. In the future, many places in the Feng Kingdom will be under their control. They have to fight all the time and naturally they will not have time to manage the city. , in order to truly control the Feng Kingdom, the Star Kingdom must also adopt corresponding civil and political means. Lan Wu's wisdom lies not only in his ability to conquer and fight, but also has a great vision for some civil and political matters.
Earlier, Lan Ze did not expect that they could capture Aolan City in such a short period of time. Even the Star Kingdom royal family had not considered this aspect. However, as Lan Wu said, if management is neglected, they may suffer consequences. Trouble, so Lan Wu’s reminder is extremely important to Lan Ze.
Putting aside the things Lanze was considering, recently, the Star Kingdom royal family has been mobilizing supplies for the eastern and western armies, just to ensure that there will be no shortage of supplies and to ensure that the army can fight smoothly.
In fact, Lan Ce also didn't expect Lan Wu's military ability to be so outstanding. He conquered Aolan Pass in one fell swoop and solved many problems for him. When Lanze's letter was sent back to the royal family, Lan Ce would definitely send people to Aolan City as soon as possible to bring him to Aolan City. Aolan City will be taken over step by step until it is completely captured. After that, the Star Kingdom royal family will follow the army and occupy Feng Kingdom bit by bit.
Time passed little by little, and an hour later, through discussion, Lan Wu conveyed the comprehensive combat plan exactly as it was.
It has to be said that there are many problems in the communication between Lan Wu and the generals. After he proposed some strategies, it took many generals a long time to understand. During this period, he had to continue to explain to those people, which led to the duration of the parliament. very long.
Fortunately, during the discussion, through the performance of the generals, Lan Wu discovered that there were many outstanding people among the generals who had unique vision in analyzing issues. It can be said that those generals have truly understood the nature of war. After this discussion, Lan Wu Wu knows a lot about the characteristics of a group of subordinates, which will be very beneficial to him in ordering these subordinates rationally in the future.
At the end of the meeting, Lan Wu had already discussed a detailed battle plan with the generals. How those generals would fight would be determined based on the information they would find out next and the situation when the war was about to begin. Next, they only needed to touch Qingfeng Army's approximate location, and then formulate a corresponding battle plan.
It was already midnight when the meeting ended, and it was not long before dawn. Lan Wu directly asked the generals to go back to rest, because they still had a lot of things to do during the day, such as reorganizing the morale of the army and training the soldiers. The soldiers for two days returned to their pre-war status as quickly as possible.
In addition, they have to do their best to find out some information about Fengjun. Thanks to Lan Wu's foresight, otherwise if they wait until the end of the meeting before sending spies to investigate, they still don't know when they will receive information about Fengjun. .
