"Brother Ning'an, if it were you, how would you choose to deal with the two Yellow Turban armies, Bo Cai and Peng Tuo?" Xi Zhicai suddenly asked.
He admired Su Fan's abilities quite a bit. He came from a well-established family, although the Guangling Gao family was nothing in the world of great men.
However, personal abilities and background are not completely bound.
Moreover, he was even more curious about who the other party studied under. His cultivation level was extremely high at a young age. Although he didn't know Su Fan's specific cultivation level, he generally knew from other people's words that he was at least soul refining and above.
At such a young age, his cultivation has already reached this level, and he is also able to take care of the millions of people in the wilderness of the East China Sea in an orderly manner.
This kind of practical ability is even more powerful.
As for military strategy and so on, he had a vague feeling that the other party was proficient in the exchanges between the two sides these days.
So now he had this question.
"I?"
When Su Fan heard Xi Zhicai's words, he was a little dazed, but he quickly recovered, and then he was silent for a moment and said: "If it is just Peng Tuo's camp, it would be simple. Just send the elite forbidden troops to charge into the formation."
"But it's impossible now. Waves are connected to it. They look at each other head to tail. If they attack any side, the other side will quickly support them."
"The most troublesome thing about the Yellow Turban Army is the Yellow Turban Warriors. Without these Yellow Turban Warriors, Bocai's army would have a chance to defeat if the officers and soldiers were willing to invest."
"After all, Bocai's Yellow Turban Army is only a few months old, and their willpower cannot compare with the real elites. So if I were the opponent, I actually have two strategies."
"The first is to send people to continuously attack, so that Bo Cai has to sacrifice the Yellow Turban warriors, and then use the refining warriors as the vanguard to kill as many of these Yellow Turban warriors as possible."
"The Yellow Turban Warriors require the Taoist masters of Taiping Dao to use spells and runes to create them. They are not unlimited. Of course, it would be better if people could be sent to assassinate these Taoist masters. However, these people have been huddled in the camp and released at the end.
, it’s very difficult to assassinate them.”
"As long as there are fewer Yellow Turban warriors, there is still a big gap between Bocai's army and the imperial army. However, the shortcomings of this method are also obvious. There must be strong generals, and there are a lot of them. At the same time, the loss of the official army will be
It’s also very big, almost killing one thousand enemies and damaging eight hundred to oneself.”
"Well! I think Yangzhai should have considered this method. As far as I know, the army did often send out at the beginning, but since the loss of two martial arts practitioners, the army rarely left the city."
Xi Zhicai nodded after hearing this. This is indeed a method, but this method will also cause great losses to the officers and soldiers. It depends on whether the people in power are so cruel.
"Oh! The army tried it, but it seems it failed."
Su Fan immediately understood that his method was to consume the elites of the imperial court. Zhu Juan had the courage to try, but did not have the courage to continue.
If he really exhausted all the elites of the imperial court, I am afraid that even if he wiped out the Yellow Turbans in Yuzhou and returned to Luoyang, he would not be able to get promoted or make a fortune.
He might even be convicted.
The Forbidden Army is the force of the Liu family to suppress the world.
"What about your second strategy, Brother Ning'an?"
"The second type? In fact, it can be regarded as a kind of consumption. Bo Cai and Peng Tuo have trapped the officers and soldiers to death in Yangzhai City, but there is a fatal flaw, that is, food and grass."
"Before, it was okay to only have Bo Cai's army of one million, but now Peng Tuo has arrived with tens of millions. Although the strength has increased, the consumption of food and grass is even more terrifying."
"The Yellow Turban Army does not have a special food storage by the court. They relied on plundering all their food before, and they still rely on plundering now. If I were an official army, I would send a cavalry to continuously attack outside. The Yellow Turban team went out to plunder food and grass."
"At the same time, let the remaining government officials in various places strengthen their walls and clear the country, so as not to let the Yellow Turban Army snatch more food and grass."
"Slowly consume it. Once the Yellow Turbans are short of food, their flaws will be exposed. At that time, they will strike again."
Su Fan said.
Su Fan's words made Xi Zhicai look surprised. This plan was simply a conspiracy, although there were some difficulties in it.
But it is generally feasible. The Yellow Turbans are raging, and food and grass are completely dependent on strength. If no food is produced, it will be consumed one day.
As long as the government does not steal food and grass for the Yellow Turban Army, then this strategy will be successful.
This is a conspiracy.
Xi Zhicai's eyes changed again when he looked at Su Fan.
"Brother Ning'an is a great talent"
"Haha! This is just my imagination. I think someone must have considered coming to Yangzhai City, but it is very difficult to do this."
Su Fan shook his head. He was self-aware. Not to mention how clever this strategy was, it also had high requirements for the local area.
It is not that simple to make a place clear and clear. You can achieve it with just one sentence.
Secondly, it is not a good idea to send cavalry to attack the Yellow Turban Army's forage troops. If they are ambushed by the Yellow Turban Army, the entire army may be annihilated.
After all, as long as the top brass of the Yellow Turban Army are not fools, they will definitely come up with countermeasures after being attacked several times.
Of course, his strategy is not impossible, at least it is better than having the officers and soldiers trapped in the city.
This is why Xi Zhicai was so impressed.
"Brother Zhicai, what happened to Bocai's army? In the end, Zhu Zhonglang will deal with them. We can only wait, but you can take revenge first."
In this world, Su Fan is not sure about the final outcome of Bo Cai. Su Fan simply doesn't believe that the court wants to take down Bo Cai.
If two top experts, such as the sword master from Luoyang, were sent over to directly perform a beheading action, Bo Cai would not be able to stop them.
"Have you found that person?"
When Xi Zhicai heard Su Fan's words, his face became filled with murderous intent.
"Yes, that guy is a captain under Peng Tuo. He has tens of thousands of troops in his hands. Now he is going out again."
These days, they were outside the Yellow Turban, not only waiting for this person, but in order to subdue Xi Zhicai, Su Fan also accompanied him, waiting for that person to appear.
"Okay! When the time comes, I will ask Brother Ning'an to help me."
It became clear to Xi Zhi that it was not easy to seek revenge based on his current cultivation alone. The Yellow Turban military captain who defeated his father-in-law Wu Bao was only 80% strong in training and still had tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in his hands.
He is no match for the opponent in a single fight, let alone when the opponent has an army of tens of thousands.
“Of course you can”
"Let's go! Gao Niu has already followed him."
"We also followed him. It seems that this person is going out to rob again."
Naturally, Su Fan wouldn't be too good at the Yellow Turban's senses. After all, most people only know how to destroy, so who would want to.
This is also the reason why aristocratic families are unwilling to accept the Yellow Turbans, and even many scribes with no connections are unwilling to join the Yellow Turbans.
In their eyes, there is no way out for the Yellow Turbans.
This is also the biggest shortcoming of the peasant rebel army.
