As the commander-in-chief of the Xia battle, Lu Zhixiao encountered big trouble.

Now on the battlefield of Qinfeng Road, including the Dingbao Army, the Security Army from the border, the Longjie Army from Bianliang, and the local troops from Qinfeng Road, the Great Zhou Dynasty has invested a total of 300,000 troops.

However, the 300,000 army has not found the main force of the enemy so far.

This is a headache. If you can't find the main force of the enemy, you will not be able to fight to the decisive battle. The war will only drag on longer and longer. This will be very difficult for the Great Zhou army that has come from afar.

The people of Xixia were too cunning. After their 200,000 troops entered Qinfeng Road, they immediately broke into pieces and first divided into twenty teams.

From Lanzhou to the westernmost part of the Huaide Army to the easternmost part of the border, there are invading Xixia troops everywhere, with one unit of ten thousand people attacking a prefecture and county.

What is even more unpredictable is that the Western Xia troops are still splitting, and the 10,000 troops are divided into ten thousand teams, and then everyone defines the territory and lets go of robbery.

In addition to robbery, killing people, setting fires, rape and robbery at will.

Xixia’s goal was to grab supplies, and she didn’t want to stay and establish a regime at all, so she adopted a scorched earth policy, and the pieces of armor were not left.

The biggest headache for the Great Zhou troops is also here. If you have hundreds of thousands of troops against hundreds of thousands of troops, the two sides will fight. With the number of people and logistics support of the Great Zhou, you can even drag Xixia to death.

But now the Xixia army has become twenty squads, or two hundred "thousand-man teams", which makes the Great Zhou army very uncomfortable.

For example, if one elephant fights with another elephant, with clear goals and all your efforts, you can decide the winner immediately.

The current situation is that Dazhou is like an elephant, but it has to face two hundred little mice. It cannot be killed by fighting, and it cannot be chased. Many times, you can't even find where they hide in.

The team of thousands of people hid in the corner of the mountain, in the Grand Canyon, and in the villages and towns that were slaughtered in this way, silently.

There are no satellite dynamic images these days, nor drone reconnaissance. No one can find them by relying on the scouts in the army.

Moreover, the large army of hundreds of thousands of people advanced very slowly, and they had to camp after walking dozens of miles a day, and their adaptability was very poor.

As long as the Xixia Thousand People team saw the army of Dazhou from afar, they would have avoided it long ago and didn't know where to hide, and then they found a place to continue robbing.

Really achieve "the enemy advances and we retreat, the enemy stands and we disturb us, the enemy is tired, and we fight, the enemy retreats and we chase"

Good guy, I learned a true story in "Guerrilla Warfare".

So in the next ten days, Chen Buer had achieved a gratifying result in the number of deaths and the number of disabled people in the injured barracks. At the same time, Lu Zhizhao only eliminated a small number of enemies.

I wandered around Qinfeng Road like a headless fly. There was nothing I could do. The enemy could not be found and the war could not be fought.

At the subsequent military meeting, the generals in the army were divided into two factions of opinions.

No matter how many routes your Xixia army is divided into, I will only take one route, and I will fight to your Xingqing Mansion, forcing your army to return to aid and then destroy it in one fell swoop.

But the risk of doing this is very high. Even if Qin Fenglu is completely given up, he will let the Xixia army rob and kill people at will.

Moreover, attacking the capital of Xixia Kingdom is to provoke a full-scale war between the two countries. Without the permission of the court, who has the courage to do it?

You should know that the court is controlled by a group of soft boys and hypocrites, such as Prime Minister Cui. They don’t want to fight at all. They are afraid that military officers will regain power, and that those treasurys that they are greedy for are exposed to the world.

Another opinion is to keep the trust of several big cities on Qinfeng Road, such as Lanzhou, Qinzhou, Fengxiang Mansion, etc., to move a large number of people to the big cities.

The advantages of doing this are that the Great Zhou army is safe, and the people in the city are safe.

But the only point is that the vast areas outside the city, including some small counties, will be lost, which will cause great casualties to the people and major losses to property.

And you reinforcements are actually huddled in the city and can't come out. When you go back, you will definitely be spurted out by the Censorate.

The two factions quarreled together, which caused a headache for Lu Zhizhe and made a bad decision for the moment.

When Chen Buer was too bored in the wounded barracks and brought his guards to the front line to see what the war in the era of cold weapons was, he saw not the sound of killing, but the confusion of the entire army.

In the central army's tent.

Lu Zhixiao looked at the map in front of him and kept silent for a long time. He kept thinking about the next military deployment, including the next marching route. He didn't know where he went.

Chen Buer opened the curtain and came in

"Weng Weng, what's wrong? Why are we stopping in Longgan City? "

Longgan City is a county town under the Shunde Army, only more than 100 miles away from the border of Xixia Kingdom.

When Lu Zhixiao saw that his grandson was coming, he sighed:

"It's hard. The Xixia army, which is so damn Xixia, has turned into a group of thousands of people, running around Qinfeng Road like rats. We can't find the main force to fight. What else can you do if you don't stop moving forward?"

Chen Buer really never fought a war, so he thought it simpler:

"We have divided our troops, so let's divide our troops too. Anyway, our total military strength is said to be 500,000, while the Xixia only has 200,000. We have the advantage of the troops, and we can block them even if we block them."

"Divide the troops? If 500,000 is really against 200,000, we dare not say that we are absolutely sure of victory. If we also divide the troops, we just happened to be trapped in the Western Xia Kingdom, with one thousand people against one thousand people. The soldiers of our Great Zhou could not defeat the barbarians of the Western Xia.

Besides, the Western Xia soldiers are all cavalry, and we are mainly infantry. How can you pursue them? Even if you find the Western Xia army, you can only watch them escape. It's so fucking frustrating.

So if our Great Zhou wants to defeat Xixia and infantry defeat the cavalry, the only way is to line up and use the advantage of the number of people to form a group. We cannot divide the troops and dare not divide the troops, otherwise we will only be defeated by them."

After saying this, Chen Buer understood and remembered the famous Battle of Sarhu when he was reading "History of Ming Dynasty".

Under the premise that the Ming army had the advantage in numbers, the 100,000 Ming army faced less than 60,000 Eight Banners soldiers, and the main general was insane and actually divided the entire army into the Four Route Army.

Each army had only more than 20,000 troops, and they rushed into the battlefield.

Nurhaci adopted the strategic policy of "no matter how many routes you come, I will only go all the way", concentrated his superior forces, annihilated the three armies, and completely defeated the encircled Ming army.

It became the turning point in the war between the Ming and Qing Dynasties.
