Chapter 377

"You can really boast about yourself, but the taste is really good. My senior sister is too delicate. She only tears a small piece every time. Why doesn't she look at me? I'm a big fox!

Your father wrote you a letter, but I've read all the contents. Khitan does have 40000 main forces, including 10000 elite leather room army. Its equipment is no worse than your Fenglin army, and its riding skills are better.

When they heard that you were doing great damage on the grassland, they quickly bubbled and persuaded Khan to hurry back.

I informed your father of the main action of Khitan. He had hot-air balloons and saw through the departure of Khitan cavalry at a glance. Before I returned to the grassland, he had begun to plan how to defeat the Han Army in Liaodong.

Now I think he has succeeded. If he succeeds, he will personally lead 4000 elite to ride north to the grassland to cooperate with your fight with the main forces of Khitan. However, he wants to cooperate with you to destroy the Khitan and break its finger, which can also make him dare not invade in the future. "

Wei Ran thought for a moment and said, "this battle, the enemy is very strong and not easy to fight. My father's four thousand soldiers and horses, I hope they will stay on the grassland and confuse the main force of Khitan with these more than ten thousand miscellaneous Hu.

Our main force will enter Liaodong and carry out deep destruction. We should mobilize Qidan troops from both sides. It's best to force them to divide their troops, then make them tired and look for opportunities to fight a decisive battle.

If the enemy is cautious and will not divide troops easily, then I hope to arrange the battlefield to... "

Wei Ran carefully recalled that when he followed Li Chengye to learn the art of war, he couldn't help drawing the topographic maps of Yanyun, Youzhou and Western Liaoning.

Seeing Bu Lanshan next to her, she was very surprised and curious, but she knew that Wei Ran was in a very focused thinking state at the moment. It was best not to disturb her. She just sat quietly and looked at Wei Ran's thoughtful side face.

"The Khitan cavalry is several times more powerful than me. I can't reach it. Only by annihilating the other party's effective forces can we gain peace for more than ten years. Therefore, the battlefield environment should be suitable for ambush.

However, Yelu abaoji is the founding monarch of Liao state among the Five Dynasties and ten countries. His great talent and strategy make it doubtful that the ambush will succeed. Therefore, we can't put all our hopes on the ambush. It's not good to say that we still have to fight a hard battle.

Since it is a tough battle, we should limit the other party's strength to the greatest extent and give full play to our strength to the greatest extent. Riding must be half weight. Only when we are forced to fight a infantry war or even a city defense war can we limit the enemy's advantage.

First of all, eliminate the city defense war. This is in other people's homes. I am an isolated army. If an isolated army has no help, there is no need to defend the city. Therefore, if we really want to fight a hard war, we must force them to fight a hard war dominated by step war.

And infantry... The most suitable position to force the enemy to fight infantry... "

Wei Ran's eyes focused on the western Liaoning Corridor. There was a very important city in the western Liaoning Corridor - Jinzhou. In history, yelyabaoji had asked to build the city. At this time, yelyabaoji was not so strong, so it did not build this strong city guarding the corridor in western Liaoning.

However, there is still a county here, which belongs to the county city of western Liaoning left over from the Han Dynasty. There are still people farming here. But the Liaoxi corridor is a wide plain along the Bohai Sea. Of course, the enemy is not stupid enough to fight with infantry here.

However, from Liaoxi county city to the former Pinglu Jiedu envoy's governing Prefecture, it is also the most important city in yelva Baoji. There are only mountain roads in the middle of Liaoxi corridor, and only two mountain roads are more suitable for the army, and other paths can only allow scouts to walk.

Seeing this, Wei Ran had a general idea in his mind. If the other party really didn't divide troops to pursue him, he could do so!

"Ah Li, you have to run again and tell my father that if he meets more than 10000 miscellaneous Hu on the grassland, the main forces of Khitan will not divide troops, but all come to me. Then he should finally pay attention. He must find a way to Yingzhou, and then he will know how to do it. "

Wei Ran can only explain it here, because the more specific and complex the plan, the more variables, the lower the feasibility of success. Therefore, he can only tell Li Chengye the strategic objectives, and the rest can only rely on the two famous generals' understanding of the battlefield situation and the tacit understanding between father and son to cooperate with each other.

Ah Li cried, "you use me as a contractor again!"

She gritted her teeth and grabbed all the lamb from Bu Lanshan's hand, wolfed it down, as if she were venting, and startled Bu Lanshan.

……

After a night's rest, a Li disappeared on the vast grassland with a bitter face the next day. She wanted to be the link between Fenglin army and Zuo Shence army, and monitor the trend of Khitan's main force.

Wei Ran left two hundred cavalry with all the miscellaneous husks. He did not tell the ministers that Ma Qidan's main force had given up attacking Youzhou and had gone north

He only told Khitan, the general of the 200 cavalry, but asked him to lead these miscellaneous Hu troops to play hide and seek with Khitan's main force on the grassland.

Wei Ran led the army to continue eastward to Pinglu. He plans to turn his 8000 elite horse into a dagger and directly plunge into the core and vital place of Khitan.

A few days later, the main cavalry of yelyabaoji went north to Yinshan, and Wei Ran went southeast along Yanshan. The two sides passed by a mountain range.

Then Wei Ran spent five days in the middle of Yanshan. After estimating that the main force of Khitan had gone to Yinshan to look for the trouble of Hu army, he entered governor Rao Le's house in Jimi Prefecture of Xi people, and broke through the empty teeth of Xi people in one fell swoop.

Xi people and Khitan are brothers, and they have been married to Khitan for a long time. Later generations became famous as the later family of Liao.

At this time, Xi people were seriously injured by the Central Plains because of the warlord rebellion in the Xuanzong period, and their combat effectiveness was relatively weak. But they have great influence. Before long, when the news reaches the grassland, the main forces of Khitan will inevitably return.

Wei Ran needed to make yeluabaoji more anxious, so he continued to move eastward and break through all the local powerful fortresses he met along the way. Since the local powerful private soldiers were called up by Yelv Abao to attack Youzhou, they must have been broken by Li Chengye at this time.

Therefore, the hinterland of Khitan is extremely empty. Although the powerful manor is strong, it lacks combat soldiers to guard it. Only some farmers and tenants who can't even eat enough have no fighting will at all.

Wei Yan attacked all the way, but he didn't kill indiscriminately. All the killings were only aimed at the local gentry. The excuses were ready-made. They said that they betrayed the court and were punished according to the national law. They should be killed by the family!

If you shout slogans, you'll be famous. Master Wang went out of the fortress, not to learn from the wanton destruction of the wandering bandits, but to stand high on the commanding height of morality and law, so that the killed gentry and Haozu didn't even know how to refute.

Moreover, Wei Ran also distributed the plundered property and food to the poor along the way. Such generous behavior naturally won the support and cooperation of many local people.

For a time, almost everyone wanted to take refuge in Master Wang, inform the news and cooperate with those who led the way. This gave Wei ran a huge advantage and felt that he could make things bigger.
