Chapter 398

Winter is coming soon. Most of the northern areas will have snow. The difference is that it will fall more and less.

Of course, there will be snow in Jibei county. In fact, the surrounding counties are basically the same. It is estimated that it will be snow and rain separated, rain and snow together, and even hail in some areas in nearly half a month.

If there is no mistake in the estimation, the fighter plane is actually half a month. When it really comes to snow and rain, it should stop fighting.

"In half a month, the strategic goal is to capture Puyang and occupy wenshijin and Yanjin." Although yuan Qiao is a long history of marching, he is actually wearing armor. The civil servants in the army are always in uniform, otherwise everyone is in uniform. He held the hilt of the sword around his waist in one hand and pointed to the map with the other finger: "there are no extensive mountains near linqiu, and the terrain is flat. We sent troops from Hanting and fan county to attack together. The soldiers of Hanting can cut straight to Yangjiao city between linqiu and juancheng, and disconnect linqiu from juancheng. The troops sent by fan County attacked linqiu fiercely. We must attack the city within five days."

Xu Zheng stayed in the main position and listened quietly to Yuan Qiao's arrangement.

The military tent was crowded with officers above the rank of lieutenant, who listened attentively.

Liu Yan has left Daying, but instead of going directly south to Yuzhou, he is going to Lujun, first to Pengcheng and then to Yuzhou. The 20000 forbidden guards he promised have been included in the Yanzhou front, and will be transferred to the Jizhou battlefield during the winter truce.

"Wenshijin and Yanjin, including Jijin on the other side of the river, reported that the spies gathered no less than 100000 enemy troops." Yuan Qiao walked to the nearby sand table, picked up a wooden stick and pointed to the sand table, He said: "linqiu is more than 240 li away from wenshijin. According to the speed of cavalry, it can arrive in one day as soon as possible, but it is expected that the enemy generals who want to be familiar with the cavalry will not do such stupid things. To maintain their combat effectiveness, after the enemy may come to help in two days, the soldiers of Hanting attack Yangjiao city first strengthen their defense and wait for the troops attacked by linqiu to meet."

Yangjiao city is actually quite famous. It has been a place for people to inhabit since the spring and Autumn period. It was originally owned by the state of Wei. Chinese surnames basically come from place names. First there are fiefs and surnames, and then local people take place names as surnames. Therefore, the surnames of Chinese descendants actually come from the development of a place by sages, and the surname spectrum is actually a history of development.

Today's Yangjiao city has no residents. It was built repeatedly when the Han Army entered Dongping county. Shijie Zhao state repaired the original ruins in order to serve the war between the army and the Han army. It is not mainly for garrison, but for hoarding grain, fodder and baggage.

The Han Army in Hanting and Fanxian is between the border army and the Garrison Army in nature. According to the hierarchy of the Han Army, it is not owned by the field corps. In order to achieve the goal, Yuan Qiao has gradually replaced the war soldiers in recent days. At present, there are 18000 Han troops in Hanting and 50000 in Fanxian.

Before the war, let the commander know the combat deployment, so that the commander can have a more intuitive understanding, understand what he should do, and know the general trend. Naturally, only senior officers know some important strategic deployments, but they should explain what goals they want to achieve, and even what changes they encounter. After all, there is no means of radio communication, and even if there is a flag to communicate remotely, there will be a delay.

"During the battle between linqiu and Yangjiao City, you will focus on the war situation here." After Yuan Qiao finished his explanation, Xu Zheng asked the general in the account, "do you understand?"

They didn't pretend to understand. They immediately put forward their own questions and Yuan Qiao answered them.

Waiting for all to understand, at least not completely dizzy, this group of people will leave and replace with a new group of people.

Each group of generals had their own operational objectives. What they heard and asked were their own combat areas. Xu Zheng didn't need to talk more, but yuan Qiao dried up his saliva.

"The layout has already been arranged." Although yuan Qiao was very thirsty, he still maintained the cultivation that the aristocratic family should have. He drank one bowl after another in great trouble. He didn't drink directly by lifting the kettle. When drinking, he remembered to block it again and again. After drinking enough, he looked at Xu Zheng, the old God, and asked, "is the king really leaving?"

Liu Yan came with great momentum. He pretended to leave with great momentum. When he finally left, he seemed secret. His arrival was a change. In fact, Xu Zheng and Yuan Qiao didn't expect it in advance, and Zhao Jun in Shijie may be out of hand.

"The king's 10000 accompanying troops are still in the camp and will suspend for some time at Shekou at the junction of Jibei county and Lu county." Knowing what yuan Qiao was worried about, Xu Zheng said carelessly, "the king is a reasonable man and will not embarrass his subjects."

"It's an honor to serve such a king." Yuan Qiao asked, half worried and half terrified, "it's just that the king's escort army stays here, beside..."

"The general also mentioned these worries. The king said that as long as the front line is secure, there is no danger within the border." Xu Zheng said and photographed the case table. Bang, he said boldly, "let's finish it quickly so that the guard army can return to the king early."

Yuan Qiao subconsciously clenched his fist and nodded heavily, but he felt a lot of emotion in his heart: [maybe with this tolerance, our king can establish such a feat within five years.]

But on the other side of the state of Zhao in Shijie, they really suspect that Liu Yan stayed in the Han military camp in Jibei county and didn't leave.

It was a very coincidental thing. Their spies were basically blind cats who met dead mice. They stayed in a place and pretended to be good people. They met those troops pretending to be the forbidden guards, and they were spies who really saw how the forbidden guards marched. In contrast, the real forbidden guards marched at the same pace, which the rest of the troops couldn't learn.

Knowing that Liu Yan is on the front line and asking Shi Xuan not to do anything is not what a crown prince of a large country should look like.

It is really a great advantage for the national war to be able to kill or besiege the king of the enemy country when the two armies are fighting. Therefore, we must try if we have a chance, and we should create opportunities if we don't have a chance.

It has always been a matter of caution and prudence for kings to enlist in person. There is nothing wrong with enlisting in person, which can stimulate the morale of soldiers, but the consequences are even more unpredictable if they are defeated. This is why few kings in history will personally enlist, let alone personally go to the front line of war.

Why did Yao Yizhong stare at Liu Yan's camp at that time? That's because Yao Yizhong knew that as long as Liu Yan was solved, the chaos in Qingzhou would basically end. That's the reason why he knew there was a risk and didn't give up. It's not Yao Yizhong's fool.

Liu Yan's tour is basically not a secret. When he first appeared in Jizhou, if there were no zhangshui interval and the Han Army fleet controlled the water system, Shi bin should rush up even if he paid a high price.

Yanzhou also has a water system, that is, the Yellow River blocks both sides, but not all of the Yellow River is controlled by the Han fleet. There is a river crossing bridge over Yanjin, more than one bridge, three bridges.

Shi Xuan, who was determined to go hunting with the king of the state of Han, received the support of the generals. Without saying a word, he began to mobilize troops to cross the Yellow River. In just five days, 70000 Shijie Zhao troops entered Yanjin and wenshijin.

Yanjin and wenshijin are actually flat areas. There is no secret in the army. They did not control the civilians along the way as usual. As a result, they deliberately ran to report to the people of the Han state.

According to Li Tu, the old general of the state of Zhao in Shijie, it is not necessary to cover up the military intention. On the contrary, Liu Yan should be informed. He concluded that Liu Yan, the founder of the country, was definitely not a timid person. On the contrary, looking at Liu Yan's past deeds, I'm afraid Liu Yan will stay after knowing it.

Maybe Li Tu guessed right. None of the founding kings was a coward. Otherwise, it was impossible to lay down so many rivers and mountains. Liu Yan really didn't leave too far. He left the Han Army camp in Jibei county and went 30 miles south to Gucheng.

Gucheng is 30 li away from the Han Army camp in Jibei, less than 200 li away from linqiu, which is really not far from each other. Even going to sheqiu according to the original plan is actually more than 200 Li.

The Han army can judge this year's rain and snow weather according to the seasons of previous years, and Shijie Zhao Jun will not forget this crop. The same conclusion is that we should use half a month to make a big one, and then use the later weather conversion to consolidate the war results. Even if we encounter adverse weather, we can use the weather not to make the situation worse.

It is often said that the confrontation between the two armies is between temple calculations. It is about predicting the strength of the enemy and ourselves before the war, predicting the terrain and weather, guessing the war process and coming up with countermeasures.

When Shi Xuan took his east palace guard across the river and rode across the war horse to the North Bank of the Yellow River, a messenger from the front reported that sun Fudu was going to attack again as planned, but this time the Han army was different from the usual. The Han Army in Hanting and fan County launched a large-scale attack on linqiu, and the elite cavalry of the Han army passed juancheng and rushed to Puyang.

"Puyang?" As the commander of the unified army, Shi Xuan didn't know the terrain. He also knew every important military town thoroughly. He immediately asked Li Tu nearby: "did the Han army attack Puyang without capturing linqiu and juancheng, as the general said, because Liu Yan's arrival made the enemy commander change his strategy?"

Li Tu is a veteran. He served shile first for half his life. He attacked the small ~ dynasties ~ courts of the Eastern Jin Dynasty for many times, and made many war achievements. He also fought on the grassland for many times. It can be said that he left traces of war in both the north and the South.

"The intention of the Han army was so obvious at the beginning, which is precisely the reason why our army should be cautious." After thinking for a while, Li Tu suggested, "prince, we can move the army to the white horse first, and then make a decision after observing the situation."

Shi Xuan thought about it. Whether it's linqiu or juancheng, it's a place that should have been abandoned in the plan.
