Chapter 1263 Attacking Tianjing Pass(2/2)
If you make a mistake in judgment, it is still a small thing to lose face to the people below.
But not far behind him, there was also Zhongdu Protector watching!
This Wei thief simply wanted to embarrass him on purpose.
Zhang Jiu, who felt some pressure, couldn't help but feel a little anxious.
This made him begin to doubt his previous judgment:
Could it be that he really guessed wrong? Was the traitor just trying to lure the enemy?
But he didn't know that Feng Duhu, who was also holding a telescope to observe the battle situation, also frowned.
Why does this Wei thief's reaction sound like he's pretending to be a corpse?
One moment there is almost no resistance, the other moment they won't give in an inch of ground.
At this time, Feng Duhu was no longer an inexperienced young man who had led an army for the first time.
Rather, he can be regarded as a true battlefield veteran.
At this time, he didn't care much about whether he could capture Tianjing Pass.
Therefore, we can think about Wei Jun's abnormal behavior with a more peaceful and relaxed attitude.
As the saying goes, when things go wrong, there must be a monster.
As for whether it is a good demon or a bad demon, it will not be determined for a while - at this point, Feng Duhu is much calmer than Zhang in the battle situation.
After all, the advantage is mine.
"Yuan Kai?"
"Sir, the disciple is here."
Du Yu quickly took two steps forward, raised his hands and saluted, "What are your orders, sir?"
Feng Duhu pointed to the Tianjing Pass in the distance and asked, "Did you see the situation just now?"
As a direct disciple of Feng Duhu, Du Yu naturally had some special treatment, and he also had a pair of telescopes in his hand.
"Sir, this disciple has seen it."
Feng Duhu turned his head, glanced at him, and said:
"You once mentioned that as long as Sima Division can be defeated again, the Han Dynasty will be able to take advantage of the great victory and take the opportunity to capture Tianjing Pass."
"Then do you think, with the talent of the bandits, can we really capture Guancheng this time?"
Du Yu pondered for a moment, and then replied:
"Mr. Hui, students are stupid and really can't understand the purpose of the actions of the rebels."
"However, the students still believe at this time that Tianjingguan will definitely be able to get down."
"Oh?" Feng Duhu said in a long voice, "Why?"
"Because the defenders are insufficient."
Du Yu pointed at Guancheng, "According to what students have seen, there are not many thieves in Guancheng."
"Even if the student's previous judgment was wrong and the rebel army was defeated repeatedly, he still had the courage to defend Tianjing Pass. However, under your master's planning, Tianjing Pass is already in your pocket."
These words made Feng Duhu couldn't help but smile on his face:
"Speak carefully and don't flatter me randomly. Why do you think the garrison in Guancheng is insufficient?"
"Sir, are you testing me?"
Du Yu was not afraid when he heard Feng Duhu's half-laughing, half-cursing words, but pointed to the mountain passes around Tianjing Pass:
"As the saying goes, an isolated city cannot be defended. Although the terrain of Tianjing Pass is dangerous, we must also pay attention to the surrounding terrain in order to play its role."
"For example, if there are many Wubao villages on both sides of Guancheng, with the canines and fangs interlaced, echoing each other and acting as horns, it will be said that this place is naturally dangerous and difficult to attack."
"Now the thieves abandon the surrounding mountain passes and only focus on guarding the city. How is this different from guarding an isolated city?"
"In the student's opinion, this is not because the Wei thieves did not know how to guard the pass, but because of the lack of troops. Therefore, the student believes that this pass must be conquered."
Although he knew that Du Yu was a genius, when he heard his speech, Feng Duhu still had a look of approval on his face.
Before he could finish his words of praise, Du Yu said with admiration:
"The student made a fool of himself in front of the teacher before, but he thought he had a plan, but he never thought that the Wei thieves would still have the courage to defend the pass despite two consecutive defeats."
"Sir, you are very thoughtful and well-planned. Not only did you want to defeat the Sima Division, you also tried to mobilize the rebel army so that they would have no intention of guarding the pass, but no strength to do so."
Feng Duhu was slightly startled: "Mobilize the traitor army?"
"Sir, are you testing me again? You sent Hubu and Wuwei troops to attack Luoyang, so Sima Division could only rush back to Luoyang to help Luoyang and was unable to defend Tianjing Pass anymore."
The admiration on Du Yu's face became even stronger: "This can be said to lead the enemy but not control it?"
"Oh, so this is what you were talking about."
Feng Duhu shook his head and said with a smile: "I sent General Zhang to lead the armed guards and asked him to try to sneak across Maojin Ferry. My original intention was to cooperate with the Tiger Infantry to capture Hangu Pass and Shaanxi."
"In the original plan, I really didn't expect to force Sima Division to return to Luoyang, giving us a good opportunity to capture Tianjing Pass."
"So you don't have to act like this. The truth is that plans are not as fast as changes. No matter how good the plan is, unexpected situations may occur."
"I'm not omniscient, so I can't make the plan flawless. I just take it one step at a time and constantly revise the plan based on the battle situation before the battle."
With Feng Duhu's current status, he no longer needs to pretend to be mysterious to decorate himself.
Du Yu said without hesitation:
"As long as you can make a better plan than the thieves, then the chances of success are low. If you are prepared, you will win but you are not prepared. Sir, you can be considered flawless."
"Hahaha!"
Although he knew that his student was flattering him, Feng Duhu still couldn't help laughing.
He pointed at Du Yu and said, "You, you!"
"Well, since you said so, I'll give you a chance."
"How about I send you to study with General Zhang and assist General Zhang in capturing Guancheng?"
Du Yu was overjoyed and quickly thanked him: "My disciple, thank you sir."
Feng Duhu waved his hand: "Go."
"Here!"
It's just a Tianjing Pass used by the Wu Qian Army to practice in actual combat. By the way, it doesn't matter if I add one more of my own disciples to practice on.
Anyway, the road to Luoyang has almost been opened, and it is no longer so urgent for Feng Duhu to open up the three passes to Hanoi.
On the second day, Du Yu, who happily ran to serve as Zhang Jiu's temporary adviser, saw that the soldiers who were attacking the key point were defeated again, and Zhang Jiu's face became ugly again.
He finally took the opportunity to speak:
"General Zhang, according to prediction, the mountain road directly in front of Tianjing Pass is difficult to pass. Simply attacking by force is not the answer."
"What do you think, general, if you don't divide your forces to first seize the key points on the left and right wings of Guancheng to create a coercive force, and then find a way to attack Guancheng?"
Although Zhongduhu said that he should let himself go and attack the city.
But how could Zhang Jiu not know that the longer this time went on, the worse his performance would be in the eyes of Zhongdu Hu.
But facing such a dangerous pass, as long as the bandits at the pass have all the advantages, if they surrender at the pass, how can they conquer it in just a short while?
While he was anxious, Zhang Jiu's eyes suddenly lit up when he heard what Du Yu said.
I saw him patting his thigh: "What a shame! I've been taking care of you for the past two days..."
Halfway through, he didn't finish and turned to Du Yu:
"Du Langjun, thank you for the reminder!"
In the past two days, I have been focusing on how to capture Guancheng as soon as possible in order to show off in front of the Central Protector.
But he didn't expect that he had already made a serious mistake.
