Eight hundred and fifth chapter grass (fourteen)(1/2)
In the military tent.
Wang Shichong, who washed away the blood stains on his face and changed his clothes again, finally restored his due appearance.
This Hu army general was able to control the situation in Luoyang step by step and use the young master to be independent. Now he has created a situation of separatist ruler, so he is naturally not an incompetent person.
If he was really incompetent, he would not have come up with such a plan to motivate morale based on his subordinates' nature.
However, human power is exhausted in the end, and resourcefulness cannot replace courage and courage.
Although war cannot be achieved by relying solely on blood and courage, it has to be admitted that in many cases, the most primitive calculation of power often represents the true nature of war.
Wang Shichong was not Zhuge Liang anyway. It was impossible for him to simply rely on his wisdom to clear the gap between himself and the Wagang Army in the field of hard power.
In fact, even if it is a battle of wits, Wang Shichong may not be able to beat Wagang, otherwise he would not have been defeated in the previous contest.
His painstaking efforts tonight were ultimately the worst-case scenario that he had no choice but to take.
These 20,000 soldiers were all the capital he could take out.
However, in the face of the huge military power of the Wagang Army, this amount of capital is too little. No matter how careful he is to calculate and plan carefully, he cannot solve the fundamental problem of weak power.
The previous small-scale conflicts can certainly suppress this problem, but they are not helpful in solving the problem.
Wang Shichong was also very clear about his shortcomings. He was not able to support his soldiers and generals. He continued to fight such battles with the Wagang army, but just helped Wagang take the opportunity to train troops, which was not beneficial to himself.
Not to mention that the initiative in this kind of battle is entirely in the hands of Wagang, whenever the other party is unhappy, he can send all his troops to attack and turn the battle into a battle.
Even if the other party is willing to continue to waste such a confrontation, he will not be able to afford it.
Luoyang has no food! Unlike Yang Xuangan's attack on Luoyang before, the Great Sui Dynasty was in control of the granary, and using the convenience of water transportation, it could continuously send grain and grass into the city, even if it was a war of attrition.
As the lower part collapsed today, the Sui Dynasty had actually destroyed its country.
King Yang Tong of Yue was very slim, and he could not get food and fodder simply by relying on the title of an emperor.
Besides, even if there are a few loyal ministers of the Sui Dynasty who are willing to transport food and grass, they still have to consider road issues, and food may not be delivered to the front line.
The main storage of wealth rather than food and grass in the treasury in Luoyang City is wealth and food. In addition, there are many people in the city, so the food mainly depends on transportation from various places.
One of the important reasons why I have to go out of the city to fight is that I may be besieged to death when defending the city. It is better to fight it out and seek a food route.
However, as the war fell into a stalemate, the food outside could not be transported in, and the grain stored in the city was about to be exhausted. He had previously bribed the adviser of Wagang, Bing Yuanzhen, to persuade Li Mi to agree to the transaction of using the brocade stored in Luoyang for grain.
Only by trading Wagang's military rations with large sums of brocade can the troops last until now.
In this situation, Wagang can no longer trade with itself.
There is not much food stored in the city, and if it continues to consume like this, the army will be cut off.
No matter how tenacious and tolerant the Chu people are, their stomachs will disperse once they are hungry.
Instead of waiting for death at that time, it is better to take advantage of the situation and try it out regardless of winning or losing.
He also knew that the method he used tonight was actually fishing in the dry pond.
I urged the sayings of ghosts and gods to stimulate the last bit of blood and courage of the Chu soldiers, and let them fight against the Wagang Army to trap beasts.
This kind of blood courage cannot last for too long. When these people calm down and start to doubt, this strategy will lose its effect.
The battle must be ended as soon as possible, the faster the better! If there is really a will in this world, let God decide whether he is alive or dead, and whether he has his own place in the world.
The guards shouted outside the military tent, followed by the answer from the visitor: "I am ordered to ask for the Zuo Pushe!"
The one who came into his tent was the most powerful military general under Wang Shichong, and it was also his entire reliance on the confrontation with Wagang.
As a Di person, Wang Shichong was also a skilled martial artist, but as the commander of the three armies, he could not have experienced it himself. If he wanted to win a battle, he could not do without the assistance of his generals.
After many years of founding the Great Sui Dynasty, elite soldiers and generals were naturally indispensable in the court.
Yang Xuangan attacked in front of Luoyang City, and then faced the Wagang Power Corps, so naturally the general was indispensable.
Wang Shichong was able to tie Wagang in a small-scale conflict during this period, thanks to the strength of these generals.
Hu Ben Lang General Liu Changgong, Huo Ju, Yang Wei, Wang Bian, Liang De, and Dong Zhi.
These six people were all the Hu Ben Lang General of the Great Sui Dynasty. They fought on the battlefield for half their lives. Whether it is martial arts or strategy, they are all talented people in thousands.
Luoyang City has been maintained to this day, although it is because Wang Shichong is very resourceful and good at making decisions and the Chu soldiers are fighting to the death, which is also closely related to the achievements of the six generals.
Wang Shichong tonight placed the fate of the entire army and the hope of turning defeat into victory on these six generals.
He can see the opportunity to win, but whether he can seize it or not depends on their ability.
"Although there are many thieves in Wagang, the camps are scattered, and the bandits are arrogant and arrogant and unsuspecting.
As long as an elite soldier enters the camp and sets fire, the bandits will definitely defeat themselves without fighting.
This is the only hope for our army to turn defeat into victory, and it is also the hope for Luoyang City.
The safety of Your Majesty and the entire Great Sui Dynasty is tied to the shoulders of several people.
Win, loss, life and death are here in one fell swoop. I hope you don’t let your Majesty down!”
The six generals were in a heavy heart, and they all knew that this matter was not as easy as Wang Shichong said.
But being a military general obeys the order is natural, not to mention that everyone knows the current situation. Apart from fighting to death, there is no way to go.
It’s just the difference between dying on the battlefield or waiting to be captured by the enemy.
As a general, it is better to die in a battle formation than to become a prisoner and beheaded.
Therefore, no one said anything, but just crossed his hands and bowed in unison, and all the others were waiting for the orders of the general.
Wang Shichong said: "You and six people each took their troops and horses up the mountain road.
If a group of troops meet the enemy, the rest do not have to pay attention to going straight up the mountain to attack the camp.
The bandits are greedy for profit. As long as their own wealth is damaged, they will return to the army to rescue them regardless of everything.
This is the key to winning and losing this battle. Remember to mess with the enemy and don’t be obsessed with killing people!”
"promise!"
The sixth general saluted again with his hands crossed his hands, then left the military tent and returned to his camp to prepare.
In fact, when the war reaches this point, it is time for power to fight. The so-called strange and secret schemes are often not as useful as real swords and guns.
Besides, the total number of troops on both sides is nearly 200,000. Such a huge army fight is extremely difficult to convey military orders, and the situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly.
At this time, the simpler the military order, the easier it is to implement. If the trouble is too complicated, there is no possibility of operation at all.
Therefore, although Wang Shichong's order sounds simple, it is most in line with the current situation.
As for how to change the specific operation and how to deal with the situation on the battlefield, it is what several generals need to think clearly about.
They are all army fighting old wars, and they are very capable of taking advantage of these things, and they don’t have to rely on the head coach.
The Chu soldiers had completed the mobilization before. With the order of the commander, all the troops left the camp with the commander and advanced towards the Wagang Military Camp.
Wang Shichong made a desperate bet this time, except for the two thousand troops left behind in the military camp, all the troops were sent out.
The actions of tens of thousands of troops cannot be really silent.
Even at night, there will be movements. The so-called secret actions are not so easy to do.
The so-called speed of soldiers is the most important thing at this time is the speed of marching. As long as the opponent launches an attack before it reacts, the battle will be won halfway.
After all, it takes time for the other party to find out the situation and react. As long as the enemy leader does not have the opportunity to order a counterattack, he will win this battle.
With this kind of thought, all the six armies made all their efforts to move forward.
After all, the terrain of Mangshan is not steep and the mountain is not too high. Based on the speed of the Chu army's movement, it can reach the battlefield around dawn.
Faced with a battle of life and death, even veterans who have been through the battlefield are inevitably nervous. Although Huo Ju has experienced countless battles and has fought with most generals of Wagang, he still finds it difficult to calm down his emotions at this time.
Sitting upright, the saddle was breathing hard several times, and my heart was already pounding and unable to recover from peace.
As someone who has fought with the Wagang Army, Huo Ju knows the strength of his opponent very well.
In terms of martial arts, they are all heroes who are good at fighting. Even if they use all their strength, they are just barely going to tie them.
If you encounter two people at the same time, you will probably be unable to escape death.
Not to mention the desperate ruthlessness of this group of people is even more troublesome.
Even if warriors with better abilities than them meet them, they will often suffer losses or even die.
Even if I win this battle tonight, I may die on the battlefield.
Thinking back on his half-life, Huo Ju felt both sad and lonely.
Born in troubled times and died in peace, this is what most normal people pursue.
I was born in a chaotic world and earned my official position and fame through my martial arts. When I die, I still have a chaotic world. The world becomes like when I was young. What is the reason for my half-life fighting? If I see those robes who died in battle in my early years after death, what should I say?
Just as he was thinking about it, a few scoldings suddenly came from the front, followed by the sound of a sharp arrow breaking through the air.
The fight was over! Huo Ju felt a stern. His location was still far from the enemy's military camp, so why did he encounter the Wagang scout here?
Just as I thought of this, there was a loud sound of killing in front of me.
The sound of drums rumbling and killing sounds were heard, and the two sides actually started to fight.
The drum sound in front just sounded, and the left and right wings followed by the drum sound in response.
