Although the two of them were stationed together, Li Meng had some clan connections with Li Jue after all, so in this matter, Li Meng's decision was the final and most important.
Li Meng was about to open his mouth several times, but he held it back. Before coming to Su City, Li Jue repeatedly told him not to be greedy for power, but to be able to defend himself. Therefore, Li Meng had to put aside his personal factors and obey.
Li Jue’s arrangement.
More than a thousand cavalry, because of their horses, once they stopped and spread out, they covered a large area. Within the line of sight of Li Meng and Wang Fang, they could see the horses even from such a long distance.
They are all good horses, and the soldiers are all covered with good armor, and their weapons are even sharper. They flash cold light from time to time under the sun. Look at the movements of these soldiers on and off the horse. They are smooth and skillful, and they are all agile men.
, the tough temperament revealed by being in battle is even more obvious.
Li Meng tried his best to get rid of the shackles of a low-level general and figure out the deeper meaning of Li Jue's orders...
Now that these Bingzhou cavalry are so powerful, besides their own excellent combat power, will they have any other support?
If there were only more than a thousand cavalry in front of him, Li Meng would not be afraid. Anyway, cavalry is not good at attacking cities. In addition, he also has nearly a thousand cavalry. If he fights hard in the wild, he may not be that weak.
But is it worth it and is it necessary?
Now it is easy to send cavalry out of the city. Of course, winning the battle can improve the morale of your soldiers a lot, but what if...
And is the current lazy state of these Bingzhou cavalry intentional? In the smoke and dust behind the cavalry that has not dissipated, how far are the follow-up infantry of these cavalry, and how many are there?
If the cavalry under Xiliang's command is lost, how much loyalty can one have by relying purely on these infantry temporarily mobilized from the Sanfu area? And how long can one hold on under the opponent's siege?
The endless thoughts swirled and collided in Li Meng's head, causing Li Meng to feel a slight pain in his head, and it was difficult to make a decision.
Wang Fang waited for a long time. Seeing that Li Meng remained silent, he couldn't bear it anymore and asked loudly: "How? Do you want to go out of the city to fight?"
"No fight!" Li Meng subconsciously opened his mouth and said these two words.
As soon as these two words were spoken, Li Meng suddenly panicked, as if he had exposed something inadvertently. Without looking at Wang Fang's gaze, he increased his volume and waved his hands, as if this could give him
The words added some weight, "We can't fight! The cavalry general wants us to defend this city, not to let us fight without authorization! What's more, there must be a large number of infantry behind these cavalry. Even if we go out to fight in the city, we may not be able to win.
What a benefit!”
"..." Wang Fang was silent and turned away, no longer looking at Li Meng.
Although Wang Fang did not speak, Li Meng could feel something. In order to make his order more authoritative, Li Meng ordered loudly: "Give me the order, and all ministries will strictly observe it. No unauthorized actions are allowed without orders!"
With this order, the Xiliang cavalry who had gathered behind the city gate and were waiting for orders couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then they began to disperse under the leadership of the captains of each team. Several sighs were faintly heard among the soldiers...
…
Fei Qian had been paying attention to Su Cheng. Unfortunately, after waiting for a long time, he didn't see any actions in Su Cheng. He couldn't help but shake his head.
Pity.
Fei Qian said: "Send the order and let the people behind catch up..." Since the Xiliang cavalry will not go out to fight, the arrangements behind them will have no effect.
The more exaggerated idea of sending cavalry galloping under the city, doing the elephant dance with bare breasts and buttocks exposed, etc. is not something that Fei Qian doesn't understand, but that unless the general opposite is sure to be an extremely easily angered commander, otherwise it will
It will arouse the other party's vigilance and achieve the opposite effect.
Therefore, with such a distance, the current measures are more normal. At least it seems like there is some slack and some flaws, but it is not so obvious, as if it is revealed inadvertently, which will attract some people.
Jump in…
But this time, it was obvious that the other party had no intention of stepping in, so it was certain that at least the general commanding the army was more rational and cautious in comparison.
Then naturally let’s make the next step…
In this era, the Xiliang cavalry focused on heavy cavalry, while the Bingzhou cavalry was a ranger between light cavalry and heavy cavalry. As for Hu cavalry, because the technology for smelting steel was not available on the grasslands, they basically
The above is biased towards light cavalry, so the Feiqian Cavalry actually has some advantages in cruising speed compared to the Xiliang Cavalry.
Now you need to use this advantage to deceive your opponents.
Of course, when the strategy is laid out openly and openly in front of the other party, it will make the other party even more confused.
The infantry in the rear quickly caught up, and under the escort of the cavalry, they began to set up camp on a high ground near Luoshui in the north of Su City, setting up a formation.
The deputy must be in a long-term combat posture.
Li Meng, who was on the top of Su City, finally waited for Fei Qian's infantry to appear, and he couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief. The number of people was not beyond his imagination, and it was naturally within the range he expected to bear.
Once the tension relaxed, the fatigue all over his body seemed to explode, instantly making Li Meng feel exhausted. So Li Meng explained to Wang Fang, and then returned to the government office in the city with his guards to prepare.
Take a break.
Anyway, Fei Qian's troops on the opposite side have to build a camp. Even if they want to attack the city for a while, they will have to wait until the camp is completed. Otherwise, if the city cannot be conquered in one day, the troops will stay in the wild and dig in the ground.
Can't sleep in the nest?
So Li Meng was also ready to take a good rest in order to prepare for the brutal siege battle that might come next.
However, Li Meng had just finished eating rice and vegetables, and when he was lying on the sofa in a daze, suddenly a messenger rushed in, waking up Li Meng who was about to enter a sweet dream...
"What?" Li Meng shook his head to drive away his sleepiness, turned over and stood up, and asked the messenger again, "You said the Bingzhou soldiers were building a dam on the Luoshui River?"
The construction of the dam was definitely not because the Huxiong Zhonglang had any intention to improve Sucheng's water conservancy construction, but it was a very obvious signal that water conservancy was to be attacked.
