Chapter 300 Ambush in your own camp!(1/3)
As soon as he said this, the generals summoned by the sound of drums all looked at Li Hongyun with incredible eyes.
Obviously, they were all surprised.
Did King Xia suddenly change his gender?
In the eyes of these generals, King Xia's behavior since arriving at Hulao Pass was nothing short of strange.
There were obviously an army of 100,000, but they stood firm and refused to leave the camp. Those who didn't know it thought Liang Jun was the attacking party.
You know, Wang Shichong in Luoyang City may be killed at any time.
Once Luoyang was lost, Xia Jun's behavior in front of Hulao Pass would be completely meaningless.
But even so, the Xia king was still as stable as Mount Tai. Apart from sending Liu Heitai to attack Hedong through the Taihang Mountains, he never gave any orders.
As a result, they suddenly wanted to attack right now?
All the generals were a little confused, but no matter what, everyone was quite happy.
After all, these people have no idea what kind of fate is waiting for them in front of Hulao Pass. They have already been unable to bear it and are all eager to fight.
At this time, more than a month had passed since Xia Jun arrived at Hulao Pass. Although this time was difficult, it was still not too late.
"Your Majesty, how shall we fight?" a general asked eagerly.
Li Hongyun glanced at everyone and asked: "What do you think? Speak freely!"
Soon, the generals began to offer suggestions and suggestions, just like when they discussed Ling Jing's plan before.
"The general believes that Hulao Pass is easy to defend but difficult to attack, but after all, Liang's army only has three or four thousand men, while our army still has 70,000. It is better to divide our army into three teams and attack in turns day and night.
, so that the Liang army in the pass is exhausted. As a result, even if the King of Qin uses his troops like a god, it will be difficult to achieve anything under such a general situation!"
Li Hongyun nodded slightly, but did not speak.
This strategy seems to be the least bad strategy.
After all, Xia's army still has 70,000 people. It is impossible for all 70,000 people to deploy in front of Hulao Pass and attack the city together.
In this case, dividing the 70,000 people into three or four teams, taking turns to attack and rest, can continuously consume the energy and physical strength of the defenders in the city.
If such an offensive can last for three or four days, then the defenders in the city will not get a good rest, and the siege will be possible.
But this can only be said to be the least bad option.
Fighting like this will not cause the army to be overwhelmed by a wave of charges, but in terms of fighting will and ability to fight for a long time, the elite Xuanjia Army is not weak either.
Relying on the favorable terrain of Hulao Pass, Liang Jun might still be unable to capture Hulao Pass despite heavy losses.
Another general said: "The general thinks that dividing the troops is unwise!
"At this time, my army is ten times larger than the enemy's, so I focus on attacking the heart!
"The general thought that our army might as well line up along the Si River and press forward with all the troops to increase its military power and gain the upper hand. Liang Jun was frightened by our army's momentum and lost all morale. Hulao Pass can definitely be conquered in one go!
"
Li Hongyun silently turned his eyes to him.
Well, the culprit has been found!
You were the one who caused Dou Jiande to list a long snake array next to the Sishui River and was then taken advantage of by the King of Qin, right?
Okay, you are just lucky enough to meet me. As a player, I am also a modern person after all, and I don’t want to be punished for my words. If Dou Jiande sees you again after being reborn, he will have to hang you on the wall of Hulao Pass.
Soon, the generals each put forward their own opinions.
It's just that there is no opinion that can satisfy Li Hongyun.
This is reasonable, after all, with such a big Hulao Pass here, it would be very difficult to fight hard.
Liang Jun's fighting power was so strong that the siege of Luoyang City occupied by Wang Shichong lasted for more than a month without any progress and suffered heavy losses.
At this time, the Xia Army's combat effectiveness was not as good as that of the Liang Army. No matter what method they used to attack the city, without large siege equipment such as returning artillery, it would be in vain.
However, Li Hongyun was not idle during the more than one month of stalemate.
His most important job was to send people to transform the carts used to transport food and grass into chariots that could be used on the battlefield.
Yes, it was the way General Deng Yuanjing used it against the Northern Barbarian cavalry during the Great Sage Dynasty.
Although Dou Jiande's army did not have specialized tanks at this time, the carts used to transport baggage could be slightly modified to achieve a similar effect.
After all, Li Hongyun had the talent of a divine machine and was very proficient in carpentry. With some craftsmen, he quickly completed the transformation.
"Becoming an Immortal in One Step"
It's a pity that the level of science and technology at this time is still far behind the Qi Dynasty, and Li Hongyun can't carry the magic machine box. It's impossible for one person to forcibly pull out the high technology for hundreds of years, so he wants to cut down trees nearby and make Huihui. Forget about large trebuchets such as cannons.
Otherwise, the odds of winning would be a few points higher.
At this time, Li Hongyun was generally fully prepared, so he decided to go out and give it a try.
"Generals, listen to my orders!
"Tomorrow the whole army will set off, beat the drums and march! Arrange along the Si River to strengthen our reputation and seize Hulao!"
However, after the meeting ended, he named several generals and gave them more details.
"Zhang Qingte, you lead the elite front army and line up along the Si River to show your prestige!
"If Liang Jun's cavalry tries to test him, he will show commotion and lure the enemy.
"Wang Wan, lead 300 cavalry across the north bank of the Yellow River and give me the direction of Hulao Pass. If Liang Jun comes to take back the horses grazing in Hebei, they will chase after them and beat them fiercely!
"Su Dingfang, you and I will stand firm in the middle of the army, surround the modified carts into a formation, raise my royal flag, and wait for the King of Qin to charge into the formation!"
After some arrangements, Li Hongyun arranged for all the generals he knew to go out.
Zhang Qingte, Wang Wan, and Su Dingfang are all generals under him who know everything about them, and they are not worried about leaking the information.
Therefore, he deliberately kept these people and assigned them important tasks.
These people were obviously a little confused and didn't know the purpose of such an arrangement.
Because in their opinion, although the Xia army divided into 30,000 troops, there were still 70,000 people.
Once this battle starts, the Xia army will attack the city and the Liang army will defend. There will be no other possibility.
In this case, what is the purpose of sending elite cavalry across the north bank of the Yellow River? What is the purpose of forming a car formation around the Chinese army?
But they didn't ask any more questions and just took their orders.
Li Hongyun, on the other hand, patiently waited for the war to come.
…
Early the next morning, when the sky was slightly bright, Xia's army had already set out and marched with drums.
All of a sudden, Hulao Pass's flags were fluttering and its horses neighed, looking majestic.
General Zhang Qingte led more than 20,000 front troops to form a long snake formation along the Si River.
In real history, Dou Jiande ordered a hundred thousand troops to form a long snake formation, which stretched for more than 20 miles. At this time, Zhang Qingte's front army only had more than 20,000 people, and then formed a long snake formation. Apparently a large section was broken off and could only stretch for three or four miles.
But that doesn't matter, as long as it makes sense.
The more than 20,000 people in the front army were relatively elite among the Xia army, and they had a strong will to fight. Even if they were defeated at first, they could gradually restore their organization and avoid being defeated in one wave.
And Li Hongyun specifically told Zhang Qingte to make the soldiers immediately show commotion when they met the cavalry who came to test him - no matter whether they were really commotion or not.
This is a key link in luring the enemy deeper.
…
At the same time, King Qin had already boarded Hulao Pass and looked at Dou Jiande's army in the distance.
After seeing Zhang Qingte's long snake formation at the front, King Qin couldn't help but laugh.
"The thieves have never seen a strong enemy since they came from Shandong. They dare to be so arrogant in a dangerous pass! Our army only needs to stand still. After a while, the courage of the thieves will weaken. When the time comes, if we pursue them and attack them, we will defeat the thieves!"
In King Qin's words, there was not only excitement, but also a little bit of happiness.
Because of this period of confrontation, the pressure on Liang Jun's side is also increasing day by day.
Liu Heitai's military information about the capture of Hedong was naturally sent to Chang'an and Hulao Pass as soon as possible.
At the beginning, Liang Gaozu did not pay too much attention to this 30,000-man partial division, believing that the defenders in Hedong could rely on the dangerous Zhiguanxing defense.
Although King Qin was worried, he could not do anything.
As a result, the battle reports that came one after another were getting worse day by day.
By the time Liang Gaozu realized that the leader of this army, Liu Heitai, was not a simple man, and wanted to squeeze him out and mobilize troops to support Hedong, Liu Heitao's army had already broken through Zhiguanxing and was unstoppable in Hedong.
.
Liang Jun who went to rescue them were all defeated by Liu Heitai.
The situation in the entire Hedong land was in chaos.
For Liang Jun, the land east of Hedong is certainly important, but of course Luoyang cannot relax.
Therefore, the final decision was to stick to Hulao Pass and eat Wang Shichong first.
