Chapter 1829 It’s not appropriate to talk about it

Bianjing, Military Aircraft Department.

On the large map of Liao Kingdom, there are already many red and blue arrows.

Zhang Kai's voice was full of excitement and excitement: "Everyone on the front line is fighting in a very orderly manner!"

After speaking, he looked at the map as if admiring a famous painting: "This can be said to be the most artistic battle fought in the Song Dynasty for hundreds of years!"

Zhao Xu looked at the mess of arrows and couldn't figure out what this thing had in common with Lao Eleven's "Hibiscus and Golden Pheasant" and Lao Jiu's "Spring River with Flowers and Moonlight Night".

Does it have anything to do with art?

Seeing that Zhao Xu didn't understand much, Zhang Kai quickly picked up the baton: "Look, Your Majesty, the two types of West Road attack Datong from Jiuyuan and Linfu, do they look like the left pincer of a crab?"

After speaking, he pointed to Hebei: "Look here again, Li Chunyuan and Cao Nan from Hebei Road, when they attack Xijin Mansion, do they look like the right pincer of a crab?"

"Look here again, the small changes made by Fan Longshan and Li Chunyuan are just another small pliers?"

"Look here again, Li and Cao's Sanggan River Offensive, and Zheke's Luanhe Offensive, are they another big pincer?"

"However, the biggest pliers are like this -" After speaking, he drew a big circle on the Xijing Road and Nanjing Road: "The Western Army and the Hebei Army formed the largest pliers, directly from the west to the east.

On both sides, it bypassed the blockade of Taihang and formed two thousand-mile long circuits. After going around the dangerous passes of Chongshan Mountain, the Liao people had managed Wuhuiling, Zijingling, Langshan, Taining, Baima and Qigou Pass for hundreds of years.

Everything is in danger, everything has become a decoration!"

"This led to Li Weihan, the prefect of Zhuozhou, making a hasty attack and being defeated and captured; Wang He, the prefect of Yizhou, was trapped in a desperate situation and had to surrender."

"Since the war started, the army on the west route has destroyed 30,000 enemies, the army on the east route has destroyed Li Weihan, 35,000 Yelufeng, 20,000 surrendered king He, and 35,000 Naguo pharmacists. The losses have not exceeded 50 people!"

"The most rare thing is that in such a huge victory, Situ didn't even try his best!"

"Therefore, after Luanping was restored, Situ could immediately provide food, fodder, and military supplies to the resentful army. When Fan Longshan changed the situation in the two prefectures of Zhuo and Yi, Situ could immediately order Su Lie and Yao Si to go north from Xiongzhou to assist in the occupation."

"Even so, he still has Wang Wenyu's untouched troops in his hands."

Zhang Dun had a white handkerchief wrapped around his forehead and said feebly: "Su Xiao... Situ always marches with caution, and this set of tactics has been repeatedly deduced and practiced."

"Coupled with sharp equipment, cutting-edge vehicles and boats, good horses tuned according to the Horse Sutra, and sufficient reserves and savings... It is not surprising that he won, but there were no casualties. This is why he is great."

Colander was very sober: "On the West Road, only a group of 10,000 people from Datong was considered elite. Among the 55,000 people of Li Weihan, Yelu Feng, and Wang He, there were only 20,000 elite soldiers, and the rest were local warriors.

Man."

"Guo Yaoshi's 35,000 are even more supernumerary generals. Therefore, Yelv Chun's foundation has not been damaged. There should be about 100,000 elites available for deployment."

Zhang Kai nodded: "What Academician Xiao Su said is correct, but we must also see that there are not many strategies left for Yelu Chun and his son to deploy their troops due to the loss of geographical advantage."

Zhao Xu asked: "Based on the bachelor's degree, how can Yelv Chun and his son carry out troops?"

Zhang Kai started pointing at the map again: "Your Majesty, you see, the Western Liao forces are now divided into three parts. One is Datong Prefecture where Yelu and Lu We are located, one is Xijin Prefecture where Yelu Chun is located, and the other is where Xiao Yi is.

The southern part of Nakakyo Province.”

"The three places are all seven hundred miles apart, and our two armies have advanced too quickly. Now they are less than a hundred miles away from the two mansions. It will be difficult for the Rensheng Puppet Dynasty to respond, and this battle is already very difficult to fight."

"I think I can come here, but there are only three strategies."

"The best strategy is of course to divide our forces and defend each other."

"The central strategy is to break up with the Han army left behind by Lu, rely on Datong to attack our Western Route Army, and then lead my headquarters and the Xi people's army along the Sanggan River, passing through Hongzhou, Shunzhou, Fengsheng, Khan, and Changping, and clear the country with strong walls all the way.

In Fengsheng Prefecture, we can also gather the soldiers and horses returned from Yuzhou, Lingqiu, and Feihu to reinforce Xijin Mansion and fight me in a decisive battle below the city."

"The third strategy... If I were Yelu Chun, I would detach an army and horse from Xijin Prefecture to guard Juyong Pass. After joining the army of Helu and Lu, I would abandon the two capitals, take fast horses and light cavalry, and retreat from Tanzhou to Gubeikou.

Bei'an Prefecture, then join forces with Xiao Yi, relying on Yanshan and Luanhe River to deal with our army."

"To the west of Zhongjing Road, between Yanshan Mountain, Magu Mountain, and Songshan Mountain, within a radius of 600 miles, there are areas with abundant water and grass, which are sufficient for cavalry to hide and guerrilla."

Zhang Dun looked at the map: "Needless to say, this is a bad strategy. The three armies are scattered and I can only surround them and annihilate them."

"But the central strategy is also very dangerous. Firstly, our army on the east route can be deployed calmly to carry out siege and reinforcements; secondly, part of our army on the west route can be cut off to contain the enemy in Datong, and most of them can pursue the enemy out of the city. If I bite

Go ahead, the ending will be very terrible."

"Even if you don't get bitten, you will eventually be surrounded from front to back during the rescue operation of Xijin Mansion."

"If it's the best strategy... well, it's definitely the best strategy. Even if we can't defeat our army, we can still return to our nomadic nature, or delay our army, or move north to preserve the main force. It's not like there's no way out."

After finishing speaking, he said to Zhao Xu: "In this case, Your Majesty will have all four routes go to the Strategy Department and strictly order the front line of the East Route to complete the siege of Xijin Prefecture as soon as possible, so that Datong will have to come to the rescue."

"When the troops of Lu and Lu leave Datong, they will be ordered to pursue them and strive to annihilate them in the movement!"

Zhang Kai felt a little speechless when it came to Brother Cong's tendency to talk based on pictures, and said euphemistically: "Actually, every implementation of a strategy will not be perfect."

"Datong Prefecture and Xijin Prefecture are more than 700 miles apart. If the strategy is not agreed upon in advance, the exchange of information between the two prefectures will take almost five days, even if the red feather emergency report changes horses but not people.

time."

"However, it is only two hundred miles from Huairen outside Datong to Yanmen, and it is also two hundred miles from Liangxiang to Bazhou. Our army's message transmission over these two hundred miles only takes one day, and the telegraph will be sent when it reaches Yanmen and Bazhou. Therefore,

The information we have in hand is almost synchronized with that of the Four-Road Administrative Department."

"So our army's message transmission is much faster than that of Xiliao. We can control the entire situation, but it does not mean that Yelu Chun can also do it."

"Is there a greater possibility that Datong Prefecture was besieged by us, and Yelv Chun left the Han army to guard Xijin Prefecture, led the cavalry to Datong for rescue, and was finally surrounded there to fight for reinforcements?"

"Xijin is different from Datong. There are no other Liao forces around Datong, but there are countless prefectures and counties around Xijin."

"Nearby are Shunzhou, Huairou, and Luxian; far away are Tanzhou, Jizhou, and Jingzhou. It will take time to clear the perimeter."

Zhao Xu asked: "Then what is the best plan for our army?"

Zhang Kai said: "From a military perspective, of course, we must quickly implement division and encirclement. Before Datong Xijin has time to react, we can divide and eat them and imprison their leaders."

"This is the best solution considering time and results."

"But now that the war has started, there are many places where we can be caught off guard. We can let go of one group at will, let it rescue the other group, and then annihilate it in mobile warfare."

"This is not bad. You can achieve the best results with minimal losses."

"However, based on Situ's cautious and prudent military strategy, he will usually clear the two routes and surrounding hidden dangers first to ensure the current results, and then continue to advance."

Zhang Dun was in trouble again: "In this way, the Liao people's best strategy was realized. Yelv Chun was able to jump out of Xijin Mansion, join forces with Lu Ao, and retreat to Zhongjing Road. Our army had to pursue Zhongjing Road, and the war ended.

It’s been postponed.”

Zhang Kai said: "Then we must rush to seize two troops and besiege Xijin Mansion, and look for opportunities to lure reinforcements from the east into an ambush and annihilate them! We can also complete the encirclement and reinforcements!"

"Report——" A tough-headed boy in the telegraph class shouted at the door: "Telegram from the Fourth Route Transport Department!"

"Come in!" Zhao Xu nodded: "Boji looks a bit like a student soldier. Are you still used to it in the telegraph class?"

The boy was Li Gang. Hearing this, he came in, stood at attention, and handed over the telegram: "Your Majesty, I thank you for your concern. I am very used to it!"

"However, since ancient times, famous generals did not care about family affairs on the day of their orders. Zhao She, Huo Qubing, and Zhao Yun are all like this. When discussing military aircraft, it is not appropriate to talk to minor ministers!"

"It's yours!" Zhao Xu couldn't help being happy and accepted the telegram: "I accept this advice, go ahead."

Li Gang stood at attention and saluted again, then turned and left.

Zhao Xu handed the telegram to Zhang Kai and said with a bad smile: "This guy just came here and he doesn't understand the rules. It's against the rules to hand the telegram to me directly from the Military Aircraft Department. Come down here and the bachelor will punish him."

Telegrams from the Military Aircraft Department should be read by the chief officer first. This is the system. Zhang Kai bowed and took it, smiling and saying: "I understand. I will teach this kid a lesson in a while."
