"We have tried our best." Du Fuwei noticed that Xiao Shilue's expression was a little depressed and comforted him, "Seven or eight days will be enough for General Chunyu to capture Shaozhou."
"It is inevitable to capture Shaozhou. Our army has made the best preparations to cross the river directly from the other side of Shaozhou. Even if Han Guo fights to the death, he cannot stop the attack from three sides." Xiao Shilue also comforted himself, although he knew that these three sides
The attack was a bluff on both sides. "What I'm worried about is that the enemy will enter Hedong from Hanoi through Qiziling. Then we can only watch helplessly."
Du Fuwei patted him on the shoulder: "I believe in your integrity."
"What do you mean by this?" Xiao Shi slightly raised his eyebrows.
This was said without any beginning or end.
Du Fuwei stretched out his hand and waved over the entire map: "Now we are in Qiziling, and there are more brothers Paoze in Shaozhou, in Puzhou, on the south bank of the river, and in every corner where we are fighting against the Zhou people and Hulu, our
The mission is to try our best to prevent the enemy from crossing Qiziling to reinforce westward. Now our mission has been completed and we have bought enough time for the offensive in the direction of Shaozhou and Puzhou. This is within our ability, and we have completed it very well."
Xiao Shi slightly rubbed his chin, thinking about Du Fuwei's words.
Du Fuwei said directly: "As for other tasks, those are what other Paoze brothers need to complete. Since we can't do anything else now, there is no need to add more trouble to them. Just let them complete it. We
We just need to wait for the next order to complete the things that need us to do more. In the entire strategic plan, we are only part of it, not all of it. I believe in other brothers Paoze and believe that they can complete their tasks, so that we will eventually
Will win."
Xiao Shilue thought thoughtfully. Indeed, he was just a drop in the ocean among the Han army. Completing one's own tasks well was already the greatest contribution to the overall situation. In the battle of a large army, the general has a certain degree of autonomy, but this autonomy does not mean that
The leader will be able to interfere with and control other war zones or subsequent strategic arrangements.
My worries are indeed unnecessary. In other words, I don't trust the other officers and soldiers in the army. After all, these next things are their responsibilities.
Xiao Shilue felt that he had a new understanding of the army and Pao Ze.
This is not a stage for individual heroism, but a place for group performance. Who is a hero? It is also a team, a group of people.
Xiao Shilue cupped his hands towards Du Fuwei.
Du Fuwei returned the favor solemnly. After all, he was not only a professor, but also a teacher.
"Next, it should be Fenshui, right?" Xiao Shilue looked at the map.
Du Fuwei nodded slightly: "Yes, Fenshui."
————————
Capturing Fenshui was the Han army's established strategic goal.
Only by opening up the entire Fenshui channel can we allow the Han navy's navy ships to quickly advance along the Fenshui to the entire east of the river and even to the depths of Jinyang after the ice and snow melt in the coming spring. Most of the strategic locations on both sides of the Fenshui are now
Under the control of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, such as Zhengping County.
Therefore, after capturing the state capitals along the river, it was natural to clean up the areas along the Fenshui River.
Chang Shan from Zhengping County was the first to bear the brunt.
The Han army moved from Puzhou to the northeast, with Li Xun's Zhenlin Army as the forward, Gong Han's army on the left, and Yingyang's right as the right. They attacked Zhengping County in a mighty manner.
In addition, because the ice on the Fen River is no longer very thick, the Han warships can already grind through the ice, but the speed is obviously not as fast as the land march. This is also because some places with thick ice still need to be exploded with gunpowder.
, going back and forth naturally wastes a lot of time.
To the west of Zhengping County, the most important fortress on Fenshui River is Xunzhou Yubi City (southwest of today's Ji County, Shanxi Province). From the river to Fenshui, you must pass through Yubi City to reach Zhengping County, and then go north to Jinyang.
.
Because it guards the Fen River and is located at the throat of the east of the river, this place was a place of contention between the two sides when the Eastern and Western Wei Dynasties separated. Yuwentai set up a barrier here for the first time to block the Eastern Wei army. Gao Huan was the founder of the Northern Qi Dynasty.
The emperor himself was considered a heroic general. In order to completely strangle the newly rising Guanlong Group in the cradle, Gao Huan personally led an army of 200,000 to besiege Yubi City, intending to break through the city, which was only one square kilometer in actual size.
Yubi City, and then move westward to occupy the entire Hedong, and then use it as a springboard to attack Guanzhong.
It was the later famous Northern Zhou general Wei Xiaokuan who was stationed at Yubi City. Wei Xiaokuan and Gao Huan each had their own strategies. This battle was absolutely wonderful. In the end, Gao Huan was defeated, the dream of unifying the north was shattered, and Wei Xiaokuan also became famous in this battle.
In the confrontation between the Eastern and Western Wei at that time, the Eastern Wei, which owned the Central Plains and the fertile land of Hebei in the north, naturally had the upper hand and could not attack Yubi City repeatedly. This gave the Western Wei a lot of breathing space and paved the way for Yuwentai to finally establish the Northern Zhou Dynasty and reverse the situation between the East and the West.
Made an indelible contribution.
Also after the battle, the disappointed Eastern Wei general Hu Lujin sang the song "Cilechuan" that became a textbook for later generations. In this sad song, Gao Huan returned to Yecheng and died in depression, even
He did not wait for the day when he could force the Yuan family to abdicate.
Later, Hedong became an important stepping stone for the Northern Zhou Dynasty to attack the Northern Qi Dynasty. The once small fortress city also became a state capital, namely Xunzhou, or to commend the soldiers of the Western Wei Dynasty for their bloody battles here.
"For the defending side, this Jade Wall City is considered auspicious." Yang Su stood in the Chinese army's tent and pointed to an inconspicuous point on the map. Who would have thought that this is the place where the dreams of a generation of heroes were shattered?
Did it have a significant impact on the political situation in which the east and west were opposed in the north in later generations?
It can even be said that without the Battle of Jade Bi, the Northern Zhou Dynasty might not have been established, the sky in the north might be a different sky, and the fate of everyone here might be completely different.
"What the governor said is true, but there is no need to emulate others' ambitions. We are coming from west to east, just like General Wei before," Li Xun said with a smile, not forgetting to glance at Wei Yuancheng who came as his entourage.
, this guy straightened his chest naturally, "So simply speaking of this auspiciousness, we should be 50-50 with Chang Shan."
Yang Su nodded slightly and also noticed Wei Yuancheng.
Li Xun wanted to train and support Wei Yuancheng. This didn't even need to be concealed. As a person from Guanlong, Yang Su still wanted to give Li Xun face: "The young man of the Wei family is also here. I wonder if your eldest father has ever told Li Xun
You mentioned this battle, is there anything that needs extra attention?"
Wei Yuancheng had long expected that Yang Su would ask such a question. In other words, his old man had also expected that today's situation would happen. Since he wanted to attack Hedong, it was essential to go north along the Fen River, and to go
Fenshui must pass through Jade Wall City. If anyone in the world knows this city best, besides the dead Gao Huan, it should be Wei Xiaokuan himself.
