Liu Daogui shook his head gently: "Now the demon thieves are launching a full-scale attack in the direction of our central army and front army. Where do you think the focus of their attack will be?"
Yanzhi pondered for a moment and said: "The number of demon thieves in the direction of the central army is obviously larger. From our point of view, it is the seven or eight thousand troops of our central army that are resisting the demon thieves' strength of about 10,000. As for the front army,
Now there are five to six thousand demon thieves attacking our four to five thousand troops. Xu Daofu himself has more than ten thousand main troops, but he is still huddled back to watch the battle. I think they should attack on both sides at the same time. Once they are attacked somewhere
If there is a gap, Xu Daofu will lead his troops to attack wherever it is."
Liu Daogui said expressionlessly: "Then this kind of fighting method divides the troops equally and attacks in an all-round way, but does not form a strength advantage in any one part. Do you think it is consistent with common sense in the art of war?"
Yanzhi shook his head: "This is not in line with common sense in the art of war. If you want to break the formation, you have to concentrate your superior forces and attack it in one fell swoop. If you want to test it, you should use a small group of troops to attack with smoke or dust.
Make a big noise, lure our army to launch all-out long-range strikes, test out the weaknesses of our formation, and then attack with the main force."
"But they have been attacking in an all-out way for an hour. If we want to talk about a trial formation, we should have tried it out a long time ago. But now they are attacking in full force, attacking in turns, but they cannot show any fatigue of our army. This kind of fighting method,
I can’t understand it.”
Having said this, Yanzhi looked at the high-flying Celestial Master Dao flag with the word "Xu" three miles away from the formation, and the tens of thousands of Celestial Master Dao troops surrounding the formation under the flag.
He frowned: "If I were Xu Daofu, this Chinese army would not appear here now, but would appear in the front army, with absolute strength advantage, to break our front army formation, or even the entire front army."
Eat them, and then deal with our center and rear troops."
Liu Daogui said calmly: "Your fighting style should not appear at this time. The main force of his army has already forced its way through the flank of our army. Before, the demon thief's front army Li Nanfeng's troops attacked our front army.
At that time, this move should have been used, but at that time he held 20,000 soldiers and horses, but he did not attack from the flanks, but continued to advance, circled to the north side of our center, and then took turns to attack. This shows that
, he didn’t include our former army in the plan at all, do you understand what this means?”
Yanzhi's expression changed: "You mean, he is absolutely sure that he can defeat our front army, cause the front army to collapse, counterattack the center army, and then the center army is in chaos, and he can break the formation in one fell swoop?"
Liu Daogui sighed: "I would rather he lead his army to besiege our front army, so that our middle army and rear army can continue to send troops to reinforce. The reason why I want to withdraw the cavalry 800 from the front army is that
We must be prepared for the loss of the front army. At the critical moment, we still need cavalry assaults and counterattacks to save our position."
Yanzhi gritted his teeth and said, "In that case, why not recover the front army and join the Chinese army?"
The expression on Liu Daogui's face became determined, and he gritted his teeth: "So far, the demon thieves have used many powerful attack methods, including Kong Ming Lantern, General Swordsman, Iron Armored Machine Man, Wooden Armor Machine Man, and Fire Attack, but there are still
Instead of using their always-unfavorable tactics such as the Ghost Soldier and the Immortal Man, this should be the real trump card of the demon thieves. I would rather they use this trick in the direction of the front army than when attacking our central army.
Just like us, we have used chariots, Dongman warriors, etc., but we still have cavalry and rear army elites. This is like playing chess against Yi. You can't use your own killing moves at once.
End. Yanzhi, you are also well versed in the art of war, so you should understand what I mean."
Yanzhi sighed: "I understand what you mean. The front army here is a big bait for you to draw out the enemy's killing moves. Therefore, you hope that the enemy's entire army will press forward and attack our front army."
, In this way, on the one hand, they can consume their troops, and on the other hand, they can also try out their real killing moves, so that our army can be at ease. We can reinforce the front army according to the rules, and we can withdraw even if we cannot defend it, right?"
Liu Daogui shook his head: "Actually, I don't want them to withdraw. If the real demon thief's killing move is launched, then withdrawing means that we have to bear the consequences of the Chinese army being defeated. Now the demon thief is attacking our Chinese army across the board.
, but they did not give up the attack on the front army. What I am worried about is that they want to take advantage of the collapse of our front army to cause a counterattack against our center army, and then Xu Daofu's army will press forward in one fell swoop, directly
Break the main formation of our Chinese army."
To Yanzhi said in a deep voice: "So, you took back the troops on the south side and asked me to come here just to strengthen the defense of the Chinese army?"
Liu Daogui nodded: "Yes, not only that, I have also ordered Daoji's rearguard to send two thousand troops to the direction of the Chinese army. Now there is no movement in the rear army, but on the battlefield, it becomes quieter.
The more dangerous the place, Xu Daofu wanted to destroy our entire army in this battle, not just defeat our army. When the enemy's soldiers and horses appeared in the rear, I think the real moment of decisive battle has arrived.
At that time, therefore, now I cannot draw all the troops and horses of the rear army, four thousand, no, three thousand, no less."
Zhi Yanzhi said with a smile: "You want the cavalry to move to the rear at the critical moment, then charge out from the west, and detour back to the enemy's flank to attack hard, right?"
Liu Daogui smiled slightly: "This is a strategy to break the situation. On the other hand, we still have two hundred heavy transport vehicles in the rear. When necessary, they can be reassembled into heavy armored chariots. No matter how strange the demon thief is,
After all, the main force is still light infantry, which cannot withstand the assault of chariots and cavalry. Of course, this must be done by luring them to our preset terrain and battlefield, rather than forcing us to charge into the enemy's position."
Yanchen nodded: "Yes, chariots and cavalry are afraid of all kinds of traps, trenches and other ambushes. The monsters and thieves are cunning and have endless tricks. Only when they attack our formation and fight back can we be most confident."
There is no risk. I understand what you mean, Brother Daogui. Now I have to go to the front of the Chinese army and protect the communication channel between the front army and the Chinese army as backup."
Liu Daogui shook his head: "No, I don't need your troops as backup, and I'm not going to let you go into the front army to reinforce. Your mission is only one, which is to guard the communication channel between the front army and the Chinese army.
Neither the enemy nor our front troops are allowed to attack the Chinese army on a large scale. If necessary, our defeated troops can be killed!" ()
