Shiwu also nodded. If he could hold on to today's battle, his soldiers would definitely become stronger, and he would be more confident in resisting Yuan Shu's attack.
"We still need to make some meat to help the soldiers improve. Everyone has lost a lot of energy today, so it would be good to eat some meat to help them replenish their strength."
Lu Bu thought for a while and nodded in agreement with Shi Wu. Now it is necessary to reward the three armies. On the one hand, it can allow the soldiers to replenish the strength they lost during the day. On the other hand, it can also boost their morale until Yuan Shu comes to kill again.
When the time comes, you can fight more accurately.
"Okay, I'm going to inform my second brother and ask him to kill pigs and sheep and prepare a good meal."
Shiwu had nothing to say, he just cupped his fists and ran in the direction of Shiyi.
"Second brother, second brother."
Shiwu shouted and rushed into Shiyi's yard.
"What's wrong?
Did Yuan Shu's troops withdraw?"
Shi Yi came out of the house and glanced at Shi Wu. He had already guessed the general result.
"Well, Yuan Shu was killed by us and lost his armor. Now he has withdrawn his troops and left. We won. After discussing with Lu Bu, we decided to slaughter pigs and sheep to reward the soldiers."
Shiwu looked at Shiyi and directly stated the result of his discussion with Lu Bu.
"Okay, then I will immediately arrange logistics and prepare to reward the three armies."
Hearing Shiwu's affirmative answer, Shiyi's heart also returned to his stomach. Isn't it just killing pigs and sheep to reward the three armies?
As long as we can block Yuan Shu, it's all worth it.
For a time, the entire Fuchuan City was immersed in excitement. Although Lu Bu's troops and horses lost no less than Yuan Shu's, being able to block it was a victory. Moreover, they had begun to adapt to the enemy's attack method. I believe that they will also attack next time.
Can be blocked.
"Lord, the enemy has already experienced it once. If we don't come up with something new, I'm afraid it will be very difficult to fight Fuchuan City in the future."
Chen Gong glanced at Yuan Shu and directly expressed his views on the future of this battle. If he failed to win the opponent in the first attack, then the enemy has adapted to his own attack method, and it may be more difficult to win.
.
"Well, what Gongtai said is right. Let's all express our opinions and see how to win Fuchuan City."
Yuan Shu nodded. What Chen Gong said made sense. Cheng Yaojin's three-blade ax and his trebuchet have now been understood by the opponent. The opponent also knows that it is difficult to win the city by relying on ladders alone, so they try their best to suppress their trebuchet.
Lou Che, if you can't find the fourth axe, you will have to trade your soldiers' lives for this Fuchuan City.
"Lord, I suggest you divide your forces and attack."
Zhao Yun glanced at Yuan Shu from the side and directly expressed his inner thoughts.
“Split your forces and attack?
Do you want to lead the cavalry south to attack Linhe and Fengyang, cut off his grain transportation channels, and turn Fuchuan into an isolated city?"
Yuan Shu glanced at the map of Kanyu hanging behind him and immediately understood what he meant.
"That's right. I think the encirclement point planned by the lord and the military advisor for reinforcements should be adjusted as the situation changes.
Since Fuchuan is so difficult to attack, we will ignore it for the time being and directly use the high mobility of the cavalry to go south first and attack the city below Fuchuan.
If we can directly capture Linhe and Fengyang, we can not only cut off the grain road in the direction of Fuchuan and turn Nahe into an isolated city, but also turn the encirclement of reinforcements into a direct attack on Huanglong.
I believe that as long as Guangxin can be captured, even if Fuchuan's troops and horses do not collapse, their morale will fall into a low ebb, which will also be helpful for us to capture the enemy."
Zhao Yun came to Kan Yu and expressed his thoughts directly even in front of the two great conspirators Chen Gong and Tian Feng.
"What do you think of Zilong's statement?"
After hearing Zhao Yun's thoughts, Yuan Shu did not comment, but looked at the two military advisors.
"Lord, what Zilong said is exactly what the two of us wanted to say. Since the battle just now, Tian Feng and I have also discussed it. Since Fuchuan City is harder to chew than we thought, why is it so difficult to chew?
Because all the main forces in Jiaozhou are gathered here, Linhe, Fengyang and even Guangxin no longer have enough power to resist us.
If it is true that as Zilong said, he leads his troops southward, then Linhe and Fengyang will definitely be unable to resist. By then, tens of thousands of cavalry will approach Guangxin, and it is not impossible to win there.
Once we capture Guangxin and then attack Fuchuan, it will be easy, so we agreed to the strategy of dividing our forces and heading south."
Upon hearing Yuan Shu's inquiry, Chen Gong and Tian Feng looked at each other and answered directly. It was obvious that the hero had the same view, and their thoughts were exactly the same as what Zhao Yun thought.
"oh?
What you are thinking is not bad, what you mean now is to turn encirclement and reinforcements into capturing the thieves first and capture the king first, isolate Fuchuan as much as possible, wait until other places are captured, and finally attack Fuchuan?"
Yuan Shu has a strong overall view, and he is also well aware of the thoughts of several people. His original mode was to clear the level from beginning to end, but now he has changed it to a central flowering mode, hitting you in the stomach first, and then nibbling at the end.
You are the most difficult leader to beat.
"Um."
The three of them nodded together. Yuan Shu's explanation was very simple, but they knew that Yuan Shu already understood it.
"In this case, then prepare to go south. Remember to bring the trebuchet. I don't want to use war horses to attack the city. Also, if you can persuade them to surrender, you can persuade them to surrender. There is no need to compromise the troops and horses because of some trivial matters now.
."
Since everyone agrees with the strategy of going south, Yuan Shu naturally has no objections. Whether it is to encircle the point for reinforcements or to attack Huanglong directly, he believes that Jiaozhou will never be able to resist his elite soldiers who have fought hundreds of battles.
"Well, then I'll send someone to prepare. Tomorrow we'll go south to Linhe. We'll capture that place first."
Zhao Yunchong nodded to Yuan Shu and immediately accepted the order to go south.
"Wait a minute, Zilong. Gongtai, you can go south with him."
Yuan Shu glanced at Chen Gong. Now he had two great conspirators, Chen Gong and Tian Feng. What they faced was only Fuchuan City and tens of thousands of Jiaozhou Army who were suppressed and breathless. They placed the two great conspirators here.
It's just a waste,
Moreover, he had an explanation with Chen Gong and agreed to keep a bloodline of the Shi family to protect his family's immortality, so he sent Chen Gong there and he must have understood his thoughts.
"Chen Gong takes orders."
When he heard that Yuan Shu was going to send him south, Chen Gong immediately understood what he meant. This was to give him a chance. Once Guangxin City was defeated, with his presence, the Shi family could make a great contribution to Jiaozhou.
The family will not be directly exterminated,
At the same time, his presence can better ensure the situation of the next battle. If Shi Xie and others want to escape, he must stop the enemy as soon as possible.
It can be said that his march south not only ensured that the bloodline of the Shi family would not be cut off, but also ensured that the soldiers who marched south could definitely take down Shi Xie's death sickle.
Only Chen Gong can make an accurate judgment on this dual belief of both protecting and destroying.
"Well, go ahead."
Yuan Shu nodded, and Chen Gong and Zhao Yun left together. The next day, the Yingyang Army, Xuanwei Army and the Dang Kou Army, who had already been prepared, threw off their horses and left Fuchuan, heading south to kill Linhe.
The dust raised by tens of thousands of cavalry heading south covered the sky and the sun. Naturally, this could not be concealed from Lu Bu's scouts outside. After discovering this situation, they immediately passed the news back.
"What did you say?
Tens of thousands of cavalry heading south?”
Upon hearing the news of Yuan Shu's cavalry going south, Lu Bu and Shi Yi Shiwu all stood up. What they feared most happened.
Yuan Shu may not know about the situation in Jiaozhou, but they know it well. Although Fuchuan is the bridgehead to resist Yuan Shu's southward march, if Yuan Shu really abandons this place and goes southward forcefully, then the southern cities are likely to be in crisis.
Once those cities are captured, the connection between Fuchuan and other places will inevitably be cut off. If this becomes an isolated city, then the only thing waiting for them in the end will be a situation where they will run out of ammunition and food.
"Marquis Wen, Linhe and Fengyang must not make any mistakes. Once this place is captured by the enemy, Guangxin will be in danger. Once Guangxin is lost, the entire Jiaozhou will be over."
Shi Yi glanced at Lu Bu and expressed his worries directly. After all, Yuan Shu's move hit their weakness.
The original reason why a large number of main forces were stationed in Fuchuan was that Yuan Shu would move south step by step. Otherwise, once his troops could not take over places such as Linhe and Fengyang, these troops would face the embarrassing situation of being without food.
The final result is likely to be a direct collapse,
But that's what Yuan Shu did, and all the cavalry were mobile, so that they could be as fast as the wind and as fast as thunder. Whether they wanted to attack Linhe or Fengyang, or even attack Guangxin City, it would be enough time.
"Let me think about it."
Lu Bu heard Shi Yi's anxiety, but what could he do now? There were tens of thousands of cavalry alone, and even all the soldiers and horses in Fuchuan City were not enough to fight.
"What are you thinking about? If you ask me to send troops directly now, although Yuan Shu's army has hundreds of thousands of people, his main force is the cavalry who left. If these cavalry are allowed to go south, no one has to think about the consequences. Instead of waiting
If I'm isolated by them, I might as well just kill him and give him a fight."
Shiwu glanced at Lu Bu and Shiyi from the side, frowned and said such a senseless statement.
"Shiwu, don't talk nonsense. Even if Yuan Shu's cavalry leaves, their troops and horses will still be far superior to ours. Moreover, we have too many new soldiers and are not strong enough to fight. If we really want to fight Yuan Shu in a decisive battle, wouldn't it be self-destruction?"
When Shiyi heard Shiwu's words, he opened his eyes and replied to him.
"What is nonsense?
If we don’t move now, do we really want to wait until they capture other places and isolate Fuchuan? The morale of the soldiers will definitely drop to the lowest by then. By then, if you want to resist or think of a decisive battle, you may not even be able to do it."
Shiwu didn't take it seriously. Shiyi looked at it from the overall situation, but he considered it from a purely military perspective. After all, the longer the delay, their morale would become lower and lower, and then they would not be able to resist if they really wanted to.
No more ability.
"But the enemy is strong and we are weak. If we really want to attack, if we are defeated, Jiaozhou will be over. As far as I'm concerned, it's better to take it slow first."
