What Liu Yu said makes sense.
The military campaigns in the world of China are slowly undergoing a transformation, becoming very different from the military tactics of the original world.
The highest level of war in history is the war of annihilation, which mainly focuses on annihilating enemy soldiers.
Such as the Changping battle between Qin and Zhao in the original world.
Bai Qi killed 400,000 Zhao soldiers, and the Zhao state collapsed and could no longer stop the Qin army from unifying the world.
In the world of China, the impact of beheading and annihilating ordinary soldiers on a force began to decline rapidly.
Billions of living beings for thousands of years in history have descended on the world of China.
The population can be larger than anyone imagined.
Everywhere there are millions of people. Coupled with the people who make a living in the mountains and wilderness, the population may increase by another 30%.
Such a demographic background makes it very easy for a force to explode its troops.
Several princes in the south of the Yangtze River, whether it is Daming, the strongest, or Xiao Daocheng, who seems to be the weakest at the moment, can explode hundreds of thousands of troops.
But hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses sound like a mighty force.
In fact, it has little effect, and the new recruits can only serve as cannon fodder on the battlefield.
The true backbone of a force is the veterans and elites in the army. A first- and second-level soldier can kill dozens of ordinary cannon fodder at will.
With the popularity of military training methods, there are more and more first- and second-level warriors in the army.
What best represents the strength of a force is the number of ninth-level experts.
For the nearly 100,000 Huai army under Changzhou City, if Fu Youde and the backbone of the army could not be killed, no matter how many ordinary soldiers killed, it would have no effect.
Liu Yu's bravery is comparable to Xiang Yu and Lu Bu. In the official history, he is an invincible fierce man who hunts down thousands of bandits by himself.
His strength is definitely the ceiling of the Chinese world at this stage.
However, the current ceiling is not high enough to allow Liu Yu to fully display his strength.
With Fu Youde's caution.
Liu Yu felt that he led Beifu's elite soldiers to attack, and the opponent would react quickly. There was a high chance that they would abandon the siege soldiers and start to defend the camp...
"If Fu Youde holds the camp, I won't be afraid, but I can't waste time here!"
Liu Yu looked calm and deliberately reminded He Qian.
"The real weakness of the Huai Army's West Route Army lies in Jiangyin! If Jiangyin is lost, Southern Qi will be leaderless. If the soldiers and generals under my command can be used by me... I can also cut off the food routes of Fu Youde and Yang Dayan!"
"Jiangyin hasn't reacted yet, so it's perfect for a surprise attack."
"After a long time, I'm afraid the Huai army will react and send more troops to Jiangyin!"
Liu Yu's strategic vision and tactical ability are both top-notch.
He did not think about fighting Fu Youde under the city of Changzhou, but directly passed Changzhou and looked towards Jiangyin to the north.
"Your Majesty is still wise, but in the end he will be foolish!"
After hearing these words, He Qian suddenly realized that he had benefited greatly from His Majesty's guidance.
"As long as you know!"
"Let's go to Jiangyin and meet with me the founder of Southern Qi!"
Liu Yu said in a deep voice.
After saying that, he grabbed the reins of the war horse and ran toward the Jiangyin boundary in the northeast.
In the wilderness.
More than 100,000 cavalry are rolling in, like a torrent that can crush everything.
Liu Song dispatched a total of 300,000 troops this time.
Among them, Liu Laozhi had 150,000 soldiers under his command. Liu Yu personally led the army and also led an army of 150,000 people to pour out.
Suddenly, Jiangnan was shaken.
…
Long before crossing the Yangtze River and heading south, Wang Jing sent a large number of spies from the Military Intelligence Department to hide in Jinling, Danyang and other places to gather information. The news of Liu Song's dispatch of troops could not be concealed from Wang Jing.
The march of 300,000 people was so majestic and majestic. It was impossible to hide such a large-scale mobilization of troops and horses.
Even the kind of military formation that specializes in hiding the aura of an army cannot continue to be effective during a mobile march.
The news that Liu Song was sending troops was like a big stone smashing into the pool.
Countless splashes of water splashed out.
In Jinling City, after knowing the news, Zhu Biao urgently summoned Li Wenzhong, Zhang Huangyan and others, and sent an urgent memorial of 800 miles to Zhu Yuanzhang, who was attacking the Jin army, asking for Zhu Yuanzhang's opinion.
Just as Liu Yu expected.
Zhu Yuanzhang, who was attacking the Eastern Jin Dynasty, could not deal with matters to the east at all, and he did not want to backstab Liu Yu when he took the initiative to fight the Huai army.
Without the restraint of the Ming army, the Liu Song army could fight with the Huai army with confidence.
The city of Suzhou was filled with joy.
The old master died in battle, the eldest son was intercepted and restrained by the enemy, the defense line along the Yangtze River collapsed, Changshu was besieged, and cities in various places were attacked by elite Huai army troops... One piece of bad news almost crushed Sun Quan's spirit.
Sometimes, Sun Quan even wanted to secretly send an envoy to the Huai army camp to meet Wang Jing and ask for his surrender.
But the revenge of killing his father lies ahead.
Sun Quan was not so cold-blooded that he surrendered to the enemy just to save his life just after his father died in battle. Moreover, the Huai army was unethical and attacked and destroyed Shijia Wubao and mountain forts in the territory of Soochow.
Some of the famous Soochow families were systematically plundered by Yuwen Chengdu and Zhang Hao.
A large number of children and female relatives of aristocratic families were escorted north and sent to Nantong Mansion for temporary custody. More than a dozen wealthy families were basically wiped out in Soochow.
Such a situation.
It caused dissatisfaction and anger among all the aristocratic families in Soochow.
At this time, it was not a question of whether Sun Quan wanted to surrender, but that the entire Soochow family was infuriated and shared the same hatred. They brought out a large number of family soldiers to support the Soochow soldiers and horses, and wanted to fight the Huai army to the death.
These two reasons set Sun Quan up.
If Sun Quan dared to surrender, the noble families under his command would not agree... At this time, Soochow was twisted into a rope by the Huai army's all-out attack regardless of target.
Just at this moment, news came that Liu Yu was sending troops.
Soochow Wenwu, who was originally in grief and anger, breathed a sigh of relief and became extremely excited.
Under Sun Quan's order, Ding Feng, Pan Zhang and other generals began to integrate the troops of all the aristocratic families in Soochow. As soon as Liu Song's troops entered Soochow, they began to counterattack northward.
"Liu Yu sent 300,000 troops to fight with me!"
Inside Changshu Camp.
Wang Jing sighed secretly in his heart.
After seeing the information sent by the spies from the Military Intelligence Department, he was not moved at all, because this was expected.
However, Changzhou was captured by Liu Laozhi in a surprise attack, which made Wang Jing frown slightly.
"Your Majesty, Yang Dayan is stationed in Wuxi, and Jiangyin lacks a ninth-level strongman to take charge. If Liu Yu abandons Changzhou and attacks Jiangyin... the West Route Army will be in danger!"
Gao Xi reminded.
Wang Jing nodded slightly. Xiao Daocheng was the only one in Jiangyin, and Xiao Daocheng faced Liu Yu... Needless to say, he was definitely no match.
His gaze quickly fell on Chen Qingzhi in the tent.
"Liu Yu is brave and invincible, and it is difficult for ordinary people to resist. I wonder if General Ziyun dares to go to Jiangyin to resist Liu Song's army for himself?"
Wang Jing asked.
