Chapter 264 Zhu Xu (1)
The sky finally got bright, and it was not bright yet, but a red color began to appear in the east.—{2}{3}{w}{x}
The scout also brought the news to Yanzhou, which was a bit far away, but not too far away. In addition, after Wang Ju repaired Huafu Road, it became more convenient to travel, and the attack started from the third update. Therefore, the scout also found out that the battle began.
"Dashun City?" Lu Shen asked in surprise.
"It's Dashun City. Last evening, the troops of each fortress rushed into Rouyuan Village. At the second update, the troops of Huanqing Road set out from Liyuan Fort and Rouyuan Village, and then met on a slope of Wuchuan, east of Dashun City. The three armies stopped and began to send troops to attack the Xixia people at the third update. Even the troops were sent to Dashun City." The scout news has been found here for the time being, and it is also accurate. They are all Song troops. They just show the sign of troops. There is no need to inquire, just ask directly.
"A battle?"
"It might be a grand battle," the scout said.
"How many soldiers and horses are there in Xixia?"
"I don't know, they sent a lot of troops this time. Even though they lost a large number of troops, there were still many troops under Dashun City, all over the mountains and fields, and they could not see the boundaries at all. But I thought that it was probably the battle on the eve of the previous day that the Xixia people suffered heavy losses. Mr. Cai wanted to take advantage of the victory and pursue the battle to expand the results."
"I understand, you guys continue to inquire." Lu Shen asked the scout to continue and called Wang Wenliang again.
Lu Sheng said the situation and said, "Do you think Cai Ting can win?"
Wang Wenliang could not think clearly. After thinking for a while, he said: "If I follow Hulidui, Mr. Cai would definitely be defeated by arrogance."
This master is very frustrated in the future...
But Song Ji also cheated. Although Wang Ju knew Ye Fengma, the detailed situation was still unclear, including Ye Fengma's specific personality. However, Song Ji knew. Anyway, Song Ji was valued by Ye Fengma, and what did traitors like to do the most? Attack his motherland. Zhang Yuan was like this, Song Ji was like this. Later, Yu Guiyuan was not afraid of traitors, but was afraid of traitors being educated. Therefore, Wang Ju inferred that with sufficient troops, this traitor would inevitably bewitch the Xixia people's troops to attack Huachi County. Because he suffered several losses in his hands, he would also persuade the Xixia people to send heavy troops.
With such a push, the Qingxichuan ambush battle plan appeared.
It was equivalent to trapping the Xixia people in disguise.
In fact, the best function of these people is to learn from each other's information from them. If you want to reuse it, you have to act according to the situation. This is Wang Wenliang. If it is not done well, it will become Fu Jian's reuse of Zhu Xu. That is the real pit.
Now we start to cheat.
Wang Wenliang also participated in the Hulidui Battle, but can that be taken seriously?
First of all, let’s talk about the general Guo En. He is very brave and would rather die than surrender. But can he be considered a famous general?
Wang Ju and Yao Ai also deliberately commented on the same brave generals as Guo En and Wang Gui. But compared with Yang Ye, their military level was far inferior.
Yang Ye calculated it, but Pan Mei and Wang Zhi left him alone to fight alone, and died heroically, but what about Guo En?
I only ask one thing, I was ambushed by the people of Xixia, but where were the scouts?
There must be scouts and spies, but they certainly did not use the scouts and spies well. Of course, even if they use the scouts and spies well, they may fail and will be used by the other party. For example, did Ye Fengma not use the scouts well this time?
But using scouts and spies well is the basic condition for a famous general. For example, Wang Shao even used the great monk's attacking skills. Zhang Feng's use of scouts in history has also reached an outrageous level. Yue Fei even organized a powerful white army. For example, Zhang Ke, in order to inquire about the news, he actually took risks alone. This has been too much...
Therefore, even though these people were sacrificed, they were not considered unfair, because they could only be considered brave generals, not famous generals.
To put it bluntly, these so-called famous generals and brave generals are not as good as Wang Ju.
Lu Shi didn't figure it out, thinking that Wang Wenliang had participated in that battle and could make an objective evaluation of the Western Xia army and the Song army.
He wanted to send troops to support him immediately, but he started to give in again.
But Mr. Lu, do you really not read military books, and you have to read historical books if you don’t read military books?
This kind of battle is not a stalemate, and one bar can last for several years, although they often go on for a long time, the battle of Red Cliffs for the elderly, the battle of Guandu and the battle of Feishui for the elderly, and the battle of short ones will last for a while.
That was the preparation before the war, the deployment of troops and generals, and the planning of all aspects. When the decisive battle was really reached, the actual time was very short, only a few hours. For example, in the Battle of Chibi, Huang Gai burned Cao Cao's warship with fire, Zhou Yu attacked, and the winner was decided in such a short time. Liu Bei's role was just a paddle.
Of course it also has a role, pre-war hindrance, but in this way, Yanzhou also has a role, which has a little bit of a role. But can that be the same? Is Sun and Liu the army of a country?
This was even more so in the Battle of Feishui. The Eastern Jin army was halfway through, and Zhu Xu shouted in the rear, and the Eastern Jin army took advantage of the chaos of the Qin army to launch an attack, and the victory was decided in such a short time.
But even now he sent troops to support him, he couldn't catch up, but he could do it.
In fact, there is another great opportunity at this time, which is to immediately send a large army to not support Dashun City, but to send troops to Jintang City, which has a role no less than Cao Cao's Wuchao taking Yuan Shao.
However, Lu Shi also felt keenly that it would not be good if this continues. How could he hand over to the court in the end? Cai Ting had a greater responsibility if he defeated him. He had a responsibility and he also had a responsibility if he won. After all, Cai Ting wrote a letter in advance to talk about reinforcements, and Wang Ju moved reinforcements twice.
…………
Lu Shi was a little better. No matter how many troops Cai Ting and Wang Ju were, from the beginning, they had never expected Lu Shi to send a 5th and 6th battalion officer and soldier. Cai and Wang would be happy to die. They would even report victory after the war. Everyone carried the flower sedan chairs together, which would reward Lu Shi with great achievements.
And it will also work. For example, if the officers and soldiers of the 5th and 6th battalions were sent just now, they could be used as a group of people and rush again, and then Wang Ju rushed again.
This is a frontal battle, with advantages accumulated bit by bit, and disadvantages formed bit by bit, so maybe it will have a big effect.
But the most regrettable thing is the troops in Wang Juyuan's hands. Zhao Shu issued an edict asking him to immediately allocate troops and horses to assist him. He did not say how many troops were transferred. The time was too urgent. Some military camps were far away and difficult to adjust, and some were poor in combat effectiveness and could not be adjusted. Therefore, they had to be allocated according to the actual situation of the battalions of Jingzhao Prefecture.
However, the edict is so urgent. If it is a little decisive, Jingzhao Mansion will have the most troops. Then at least a dozen battalions of officers and soldiers can be allocated.
Think about it, how powerful will the more than ten battalions of officers and soldiers be put in Cai Ting's hands? But Wang Juyuan is very good. He sent scouts to inquire, and then sent two generals to control the main roads and defend Chang'an...
Now Wang Juyuan also heard the news, but the news of the battle last night.
It is not a corpse, the corpse floats with the water flow. Now the river water is relatively flat. The flow rate per second is only one meter, and the small number of corpses in front may float far away. However, the large group of corpses behind are still stuck on the river surface and have just officially arrived at the boundary of Zhiluo County.
The magistrate of Zhiluo County also had a headache. Continue to order salvage and make up one order. How much can you get? If you can't get it, it will cause headaches for the lower counties. I don't have that much manpower in my hands, and the war is going on in front, and people behind are also frightened.
However, Wang Juyuan sent a scout and found out that the victory was revealed, Wang Juyuan was not ashamed, but was proud and said proudly: "I said that the bandits in the Western Xia will be defeated."
Anyway, he doesn't send troops, so the left is the reason, and the right is the reason.
But don’t worry, someone witnessed Eunuch Huang’s arrival at Liyuan Fort.
The war started on the front line and had nothing to do with him, so he stayed in Liyuan Castle.
All the troops on the front line were sent out, and Cai Ting was also worried that there would be any mistakes in the rear, so he immediately transferred several battalions from the rear and asked them to station themselves in the fortresses such as Liyuan Fort, Rouyuan Village and Huai'an Town.
It is unlikely to expect the soldiers to go to the battlefield. They may not necessarily work. Instead, they will cause unnecessary sacrifices and may even lead to defeat due to fear of escaping.
But it would be fine to let them barely guard the city first.
At the third update, the horns were ringing, and Eunuch Huang could not sleep anymore. At the fourth update, the noise on the battlefield continued to spread to Liyuan Fort. The shouts of killing were not heard, but some faint drums, horns, and explosions could be heard.
Eunuch Huang couldn't sleep anymore, and the camp soldiers could not sleep anymore, so Eunuch Huang called out the brave soldiers to go to the front line to inquire.
When it was almost dawn, the soldiers of the wing came to report that they were fighting, but the food and grass in Xixia were burned.
"Hey, there is hope for great victory," Eunuch Huang immediately became interested, then called out the two guards he brought, and rode to the front line on horseback.
He came to Huachi County with a "private message" and did not notify Cai Ting. However, Cai Ting also knew that Eunuch Huang was coming, and he didn't know what he was doing. However, yesterday he finished discussing with Wang Ju and immediately issued various orders. After giving the order, he asked curiously.
Wang Ju made a brief explanation, Cai Ting did not express his opinion, Zhao Xu asked, Wang Ju replied, this is OK, but he did not ask himself, there was no need to make a comment, and maybe after he arrived in the court, he would be misinterpreted repeatedly by some people.
Moreover, if this battle is a big victory, the best way is not to be arrogant. You must make a fortune in a quiet voice. If I win, how did I win? Besides, how many people died, how many people were injured, how many enemies were killed, and how many soldiers made great contributions. Just report these things.
It is not good to say too much. Many people will be jealous and proud of themselves. Are everyone happy? But with a low-key attitude, everyone is not embarrassed to say it, but it is a great victory. Can the emperor not know?
Then Wang Ju immediately rested, and he also rested, and there was still one night to stay up.
Therefore, when Cai Ting saw him, he didn't care too much, and then continued to stare at the battlefield.
It was dawn, and they stood at a high place and could see the approximate situation on the battlefield.
However, Eunuch Huang was confused and asked, "Mr. Cai, what is the situation of our army now?"
"At a little advantage," Cai Ting replied simply. However, he had a little worry in his eyes. The Song army must have an advantage in morale, but if the stalemate continues, this advantage will slowly disappear. In terms of physical strength, everyone was shocked when the Xixia people were sleeping soundly in the middle of the night. However, during the day yesterday, many Song army soldiers passed the marching force, and half of them participated in the battle between Rouyuanzhai and Huachi County. Therefore, they seemed to be similar in physical strength, but in fact, the Song army was slightly at a disadvantage. There was still troops.
If there is no turning point again, the sky will be bright and the situation will be very bad. So Cai Ting looked at the remaining battalions of officers and soldiers, wondering whether to put them on the battlefield as well.
