In this way, as long as the city of Samadha is not lost, Kushan will have enough troops to attack the Han army. From a normal person's point of view, it is both prudent and effective. Guo Jia estimates that Durga's
Normally outstanding generals would choose this way.
As for the so-called snake and rat sides, the fence-sitting faction, who want to take advantage of each other, in fact, it is just a talk. On the contrary, in Guo Jia's opinion, it is abnormal for a general to come out in full force and directly start a decisive battle, but later
The person is either a madman or a genius. Anyway, it is easier to deal with normal people than normal people. The brain circuits of madmen and geniuses are not easy to predict.
In addition, Guo Jia did not see any crazy style in Durga's previous style, so he used normal thinking to infer that there should be no problem with about 100,000.
Under this premise, the two legions of Ji Ling and Zhang Ren may not be able to fight against each other. After all, Durga, Kailash, Garth, and Banerjee have already fought against the Han army.
, I may not be able to beat Ji Ling and Zhang Ren one on one, but ten on one...
Throughout the ages, in frontal battles, those who can defeat their opponents when the legion ratio is one to ten, to be honest, Guo Jia can count them on his fingers. Such people are very few.
It's obvious that Ji Ling and Zhang Ren are definitely not gods at this level. Even if Guo Jia and Guan Yu cooperate, Guo Jia has no confidence in a real one-to-ten head-on battle. To be precise, a head-on battle of this size is realistic.
You can't win by talking.
"Are you saying that the other party may have prepared an army of more than 100,000 people here, waiting to attack?" Guan Yu squinted at the map. Because he had fought with Zhou Yu, Guan Yu knew very well that if the navy transported troops down the river,
How convenient is it?
"Yes, and it's very likely to be the case." Guo Jia pointed two arrows at Samadhija City, "This is our way of marching troops, this is Kushan's way of marching troops, and this is where we need to garrison.
, this is their..."
Guo Jia quickly added possible lines of confrontation on the map, "Fahrenheit City is here, and Rajgir City is here. These two cities were the capitals of a certain kingdom that used to be here, and they have a long history. Even if they are far from the political center, these two cities are
The two cities are also equivalent to the more formal cities in Zhongyuan County, and Durga is here."
"With this distance, if they react, even if they go down the river, it will take a lot of time." Huang Quan said, looking at the distance on the map.
"Durga is here, but it does not mean that others are here. If it were me, if there were naval forces, I would place them here so that they can protect you, Huashi City, Rajgir City and other places in Magadha Kingdom.
The core area, going down, can be used as a mobile force to defend us." Guo Jia said calmly, "This is the most suitable location because there is also a city here."
"Did Jala Suva assassinate the city?" Wang Lei frowned and said.
"No, it should be said to be a country." Guo Jia smiled and said, "This place is closer to the one-city-one-country system in the Western Regions, but it doesn't matter. If this city is here, we can also coordinate from the water veins.
So Durga’s army must be at this intersection.”
Others couldn't help but nodded after hearing this. Although Guo Jia had no clear investigation evidence, from the perspective of maximizing interests and strengthening military support, indeed, the only place Durga could choose was here.
"There is no doubt that at this distance, even a hundred thousand troops cannot be transported by water for six or seven days. In addition, they are already prepared. As long as we send troops, they will definitely report to the reinforcements as soon as possible. When we arrive, it will be very soon.
We may encounter our former opponents the next day or even on the same day." Guo Jia pointed to the outside of Samajima City and said.
Zhang Ren and Ji Ling obviously had solemn expressions on their faces. If this was the case, it would be equivalent to the other party waiting for work, waiting for them to arrive and then launch a flanking attack. This pocket formation directly uses the city as bait, and it is not inferior in terms of courage.
.
"Okay, I have said everything that needs to be said at the strategic level. This is the analysis of the opponent's layout. To be honest, after understanding the opponent's layout, the difficulty of conducting combat is actually very low, and the biggest problem lies in the distribution of troops.
." Guo Jia said with a faint smile.
"Intellectually, you can rest assured that I can guarantee that I will never suffer a loss in terms of the overall strategy, and will also bring out everyone's combat effectiveness. But then I have to mention another point, which is the improvement that strategy can bring.
The question is whether we can overwhelm the opponent." Guo Jia said with a wry smile.
At the level of civil war, our military strength is generally not too exaggerated, that is, there are very few wars on the scale of tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands. This level of tactical strategy can actually defeat too many opponents, and it has risen to the level of imperial war.
, Guo Jia has a feeling that no matter how many tactics you plan, it still depends on your own combat effectiveness in the end.
To put it bluntly, the strategy at the tactical level is to strengthen one's own combat effectiveness and weaken the opponent's organizational strength. However, in a war of national war standards, the enemy is calculated in hundreds of thousands. At this level, even if you weaken the opponent, you still have to fight in the end.
Head-to-head.
Just like what Chen Xi said at the time, go away, don't worry about all this mess, I will raise my minimum performance ability to a level higher than your maximum performance level, and I will kill you with a flat push.
I think there was nothing wrong with Zhuge Liang and others' plan when they were on the battlefield of Anxi. It was a very clever tactic for Anxi to block Rome in the Zagros Mountains, but what's the use? They even penetrated the Zagros Mountains. Let's get serious.
Target them one by one, no matter how many plans you make, in the end the other party will forcefully overcome the cleverness.
Guo Jia is facing the same situation now, and finally understands why the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods were more frenzied than theirs, and the important reason why the number of troops was so large. It can only be said that people are forced out, and there is no such standard.
With so many troops, there is really no way to fight.
It can be said that Guo Jia has absolute confidence in his guesses and inferences, and there is basically no possibility of his conclusions being wrong. The only thing that may be wrong is that Guishang is willing to invest. No, it should be said that Guishang can survive such a war.
How many troops are invested in it?
This is related to the success rate of Guo Jia's plan, as well as Guo Jia's battle and its future direction. No matter how many calculations are made, in the end, if the opponent uses force to defeat skill, it will really piss Guo Jia to death.
This is also the main reason why Guo Jia is so cautious even though he has already guessed every move of Kuishang. He doesn’t understand this country!
"Fengxiao, if you have any worries, just tell me." Guan Yu glanced at everyone present, and he always spoke optimistically and upbeat, with pearls of wisdom in hand. The charming Guo Jia's expression made Guan Yu a lot more cautious.
"Let's put it this way, if this were in the Central Plains, I would be sure that this battle would be a battle of annihilation, because I can basically determine all the opponent's arrangements and all the opponent's possible reactions. Under such circumstances, such a war is very important to us.
It's almost a transparent war." Guo Jia swept away his previous look and said solemnly.
"What's the problem?" Guan Yu asked directly.
"How much manpower and material resources are we willing to invest in such a war? This is related to my judgment about the Brahmins. Of course, this is not important. What is important is that if the opponent invests too many troops, we will be very vulnerable.
Passive." Guo Jia said with a wry smile.
"Because of the topography of Kushan, although it is a very flat plain, due to light and climate problems, what is formed here is not grassland but shrubs and jungles. The cavalry has no way to use it here. The surrounding areas of those cities have become transformed due to farming.
It has become a plain, but we cannot attack the city with cavalry..." Guo Jia said with some entanglement.
"Without cavalry, infantry versus infantry, when the opponent has an elite leader, it is actually difficult to achieve a decisive effect. And for Kushan soldiers, this kind of war that cannot be concluded can only allow the opponent to be involved in it.
If we grow, the opponent may even have too many troops and use tactics to kill us." Guo Jia said cautiously.
"So in this situation, even if we are well prepared for the opponent's reinforcements, they can only defeat them but not annihilate them." Guo Jia pointed to the edge of the Ganges River on the map and said.
Zhang Ren, Ji Ling and others couldn't help being stunned when they heard this, and then nodded silently. They were all veterans on the battlefield and understood this. When they thought about it, everyone became more cautious.
"It means that we all have plans, but regardless of any plans, we and the other party are probably ready to be exposed, and we are also ready to give it a go." Zhang Ren's face looked extremely ugly,
This spelling puts them at a great disadvantage as they are far away from the Central Plains.
"Actually, there is another plan, but it is more dangerous, and they must be very cautious about fire attack defense now, so it is better to adopt this plan more cautiously." Guo Jia sighed and said.
"In fact, there is nothing to say about this battle at the tactical level. We have solved it here first, so the reinforcements coming down from the Ganges will not have a big impact on us. Even if there are some reinforcements coming by sea, they will not actually give us much.
There is so much pressure, but on the contrary, once we fail to capture this place, I am afraid we will be attacked from both sides." Guo Jia once again extended his hand to the wise man Samadhi Zhacheng and said.
"I feel like you haven't calculated Wen Ze's troops and have been planning with our existing 50,000 troops." Guan Yu said in confusion.
"Leave half of the troops as reserves, because I am always a little worried about this battle." Guo Jia sighed and said, "Put all Wen Ze's elite here as reserves. Even if there is an accident, I will have room for maneuver."
