In Diaoyin City, in the government office, a huge map was placed in the center of the hall. The map was so big that it couldn't even fit on the table, so it had to be placed on the ground. Fei Qian and everyone stood around the map.
Carefully measure the mountains and rivers of Sanfu Land.
The land of three auxiliaries, Guanzhong, the so-called country of four fortresses, is bounded by mountains and rivers.
The Four Fortresses refer to the four important passes around the Sanfu Land: Donghangu, Xisanguan, Nanwuguan, and Beixiaoguan; the mountains are the Qinling Mountains, and the Wei River is the Weihe River. In this area, the natural
It is a plain land with rich water network and surrounded by mountains. It can be said that it is thousands of miles of fertile land and has abundant reserves.
In addition, during the Qin Dynasty, the Zhengguo Canal was built to connect Jingluo, which added a large area of irrigated fertile land to Guanzhong, making it an area with fertile fields and prosperous people. Of course, it also made Qin become the most powerful country in the world.
Base.
But now Guanzhong is like a muddy pond, like a swamp covered with water and grass on the surface. It seems like there is nothing out of the ordinary, but if you step into it, you are in danger of catastrophe.
Dozens of Fei Qian's personal guards guarded the hall. Huang Xu stood behind Fei Qian with his sword pressed, standing upright and solemnly, like a small black tower, his body motionless.
On the left and right sides of Fei Qian, there were Xu Shu and Xun Chen on one side, and Ma Yan and Zhao Yun on the other side.
At this moment, everyone's eyes are focused on this huge map.
This is a battle that can only be won but not lost. Winning is a huge honor, and losing is an indelible shame. For everyone present, the pressure is not small. Of course, the biggest burden is,
It still fell on Fei Qian's shoulders.
In Chinese tradition, success must be a medal for the superior. Of course, once defeated, the superior will have to face the big pot and the small pot. It is not impossible to shirk the blame, but once the superior starts to shirk, it will be very difficult.
The quickest one will gain the hearts of a bunch of scattered people below.
Therefore, in Chang'an, the most glorious part of this war is certainly in front of you, but the heaviest aspect must also be borne by Fei Qian!
how to spell?
Fei Qian calculated that his men could actually be said to have strong military strength, but just like Li Jue, Guo Si and others, they had more places to defend, some to the east and some to the west, and then they were a bit stretched.
The previous record doesn't mean anything, nor does it mean that Fei Qian can make steady progress.
The Baibo Army, to put it bluntly, is just a group of bandits who have been desperate and have gathered together to change jobs from farmers. As long as the initial courage is knocked out, they will basically chase after them.
Although the Xianbei people are more than one level stronger than the Baibo army, Feiqian had four to five thousand Hu cavalry on the flanks at that time, and they weakened them after repeated attacks.
It's just the Xianbei part of the Yinshan Mountains, so although there is pressure, it's not very big.
But now, Fei Qian feels like he has nowhere to start.
The history of the Han Dynasty may have been disturbed by oneself. If you want to make this history really leave its original track and embark on a new channel, you still don't know how much effort and sacrifice it will take to do so.
, people often say that history has inertia, but this heavy inertia sometimes makes people feel helpless and powerless.
Chang'an...
Chang'an is not chaotic enough now, why do you have to get involved?
Fei Qian frowned and kept scanning the huge map with his eyes, as if he was patrolling the land from a high altitude.
Xu Shu pointed on the map with a small stick: "...Tongguan, Wuzhangyuan, that's it. However, when our army goes south, it must capture Sucheng and Niyang before marching to Chang'an... It's just that
Zuo Fengyi is a hidden danger after all..."
The army must rely on the city to march, otherwise not only the logistics will not be guaranteed, but also the retreat may be cut off at any time. Therefore, the actual attack routes are not as diverse as later generations imagined. In fact, sometimes
Just one or two.
Because abandoning the normal marching route means greater and unknown risks.
The marching route proposed by Xu Shu is also the safest one. It connects Diaoyin and Chang'an through two nodes, providing a transportation route for army replenishment, grain and grass transportation, etc., but it is not foolproof. The biggest problem is
It is Zuo Fengling who is on the flank on this route.
From Diaoyin to Chang'an, it is a slightly southwesterly route, so when turning towards Chang'an, the flanks of Fei Qian's army are exposed. At this time, no matter whether it is Xiliang's soldiers or Yang Biao and others who are on the left of Feng Yi,
Human troops may attack Fei Qian's flank for some purpose...
Xun Chen said on the side: "...If you advance too fast, Xiliang will gather together to resist, and you will inevitably follow the same path as Xiang Chu; if you are a little slow, the original Tongguan of five feet will be broken, and the pass will be broken into pieces and cannot be repaired.
…”
The current situation is like this. If you want to capture all of Guanzhong, you need to take huge risks. Not only do you have to face the front of the Xiliang soldiers, but you also need to be prepared for knives from the rear. If it is just a show
, then not only will they lose their righteous reputation, but they will also leave Guanzhong as a torn apart mess.
Should we take the risk of total defeat or even complete collapse in exchange for a relatively complete Guanzhong region, or should we wait for Guanzhong to fall apart and become corrupted before profiting from it?
If you want the safest way, you only need to spread the cavalry as far as possible to the north and cruise around. On the one hand, it will serve as a warning. On the other hand, you can also give full play to the advantages of the cavalry, pulling back and forth to attack the enemy's weak areas, thereby expanding your own advantage.
, prepare for the final decisive battle.
But if I really choose this method, it means letting Guanzhong become a huge battlefield for melee from all sides. Even if I take Chang'an City by then, what will it do in the face of a Guanzhong that has been beaten to a pulp?
?And if Chang'an cannot be captured, whether it is controlled by the Xiliang series personnel or the Hongnong Yang family, this area will become a hidden danger for itself...
In the past, I had nothing anyway. I could just slap my butt and go back to Jingxiang, and I could make a living. But now it is not only a time to struggle for survival, but more importantly, how to stabilize my handicap and make some money.
The deviated wheel of history takes a new path!
Although he can claim to be just fighting for the Han Dynasty, Fei Qian actually knows that he needs to think more deeply at this time. If you want to change history and push this wheel with huge inertia, if you don't have some strength, you won't have enough.
His power and status are simply a fantasy.
Everyone's eyes were focused on Fei Qian, waiting for him to finally make a decision...
Well, at this point in time, the suspicious person who received the red envelope went into his hut to count the harvest...
When you are old, or just a few years later, you will need X10, or even X100 times to return the red envelope... From this point of view, it seems that Chinese-style red envelope investment is also a good one with a certain degree of risk.
