Chapter 443 Surrounding Wei to save Zhao
Military Academy, Sand Table Room.
Zhao Xu, Tsui Hark and Chang Wei and other generals stood around the Qinzhou sand table.
After Zhao Heng decided to make the Northern Expedition, under his guidance, the Military Academy created the sand table in Qinzhou.
After all, they didn't know whether they would be sent to Qinzhou to fight, so they prepared for the future.
Unexpectedly, they used this Qinzhou sand table.
"According to the news obtained by Xiaguan, after the Battle of Yongcheng, General Yang cut off his arms to survive and led the remaining troops to Xiancheng at night." Tsui Hark said.
"So, there are about 200,000 soldiers in Xiancheng at present. Before the attack on Yongzhou, most of the food and grass transported by the Northern Expedition Army were stored in Xiancheng, and there should be no problem with eating the food for a month."
"As for Beidi, a king's tent set out from Xiaoguan, cut off the road for the Northern Expedition Army to retreat south, and now controls all the key roads in Qinzhou."
"Khan Mulehongzhen personally led three tents to the city of Xian, and cooperated with the Xiliang soldiers and Ma Jin soldiers in Yongcheng to surround Xiancheng."
"After the Xiao family was defeated by the Beidi soldiers who came out of Xiaoguan, they hurried in Jianguan and did not dare to step into Qinzhou."
"Mahan lost 30% of his horses, but he has not yet taken down Xiangcheng, which was occupied by Xiliang. When he learned that Bei Di Nan came, he temporarily withdrew Qin Pass. It is estimated that the Ma family members will arrive in Yancheng soon and discuss the matter with His Highness."
Holding a teaching stick in his hand, Tsui Hark moved the stick to the position of the power whenever he talked about a force.
"So, the soldiers of Beidi, Xiliang and Ma Jin who are now entrenched in Qinzhou are nearly 700,000?" Chang Wei frowned.
Beidi is 400,000.
Xiliang hoarded 100,000 soldiers and horses in Xiangcheng, and Baocheng hoarded 100,000 soldiers and horses.
Neither Ma Jin nor Xiao Jiafu took down the city, and the two cities combined must have at least 150,000 troops.
There are also nearly 700,000 soldiers in Yongcheng.
Tsui Hark nodded, "That's true, and the Xiliang soldiers in Xiangcheng seem to belong to the elite Xiliang, while the Xiliang soldiers in Baocheng are weaker."
When Chang Wei heard this, he looked at Zhao Xu, "Your Highness, you can't go to Qinzhou."
Pointing to the county town on the sand table, he continued: "In the view of the last general, Mule Hongzhen's trip south this time was probably because he had considered the possibility of failure in the east, so he besieged Xiancheng, in addition to capturing the emperor, was afraid that his highness would also be waiting for his highness to take the bait."
"This is the plan to deal with Murong Wuji's surround and support when he was in Jinzhou." Chang Wei finally raised his voice.
The other generals nodded and agreed with Chang Wei's statement.
At present, there are two kingly tents outside Yan Pass in the Northern Di.
Naturally, they could not mobilize all the soldiers in the royal palace.
Even though the soldiers of the royal palace were good at fighting, this number of people was unlikely to be able to hold on to the three coalition forces of Beidi, Xiliang and Ma Jin, which had artillery.
Even if there are 700,000 people, even if they don’t resist and let them kill pigs, they will have to kill for a few days and nights.
Zhao Xu's eyes swept across everyone's faces.
The generals' expressions were almost the same.
Tsui Hark shook his head at him, obviously not agreeing with this matter.
Even if this battle can be won, the personal soldiers of the royal family will probably be destroyed.
"Don't worry, I am not stupid. It's like a reckless entry into Qinzhou at this time is tantamount to seeking death." Zhao Xu said.
Chang Wei breathed a sigh, then sighed: "It's just that, the emperor and the elderly general will probably fall into the hands of the Beidi people."
"If we gather the remaining imperial guards and powerful soldiers in Dasong, we can still fight." He added something when he thought of it.
But his tone was very unconfident. Obviously, he didn't think it was because in order to save Zhao Heng, Dasong gathered a large army.
Upon hearing this, Tsui Hark directly refuted, "The eldest prince is in charge of the country, I am afraid that he will not want the emperor to go back, so that he can take the opportunity to ascend the throne. After all, the third prince has lost the possibility of continuing the throne, and the second prince is also in Xiancheng, so it is impossible for him to assemble the imperial guards."
After sneering for a while, he said again: "As for the power clan, the separatist spirit is obvious, how can you lose your true family fortune? Maybe they would like to change to a new emperor who is easy to control."
As he was talking, he suddenly thought of something and his face changed, "Oh no, the Dou family and the Han family will definitely not support the prince. Dasong may be in trouble at that time."
He looked at King Yan and saw that King Yan was also looking at him.
I immediately realized that the King of Yan had already had a scheming in his heart.
"What Master Xu said is what I want to say. If you can save the emperor, you naturally have to try to save it, but I never like to be led by someone."
"Mullehon really wants me to get into the trap he sets. I want to take a different approach. We will not go to Qinzhou, but to Ningjindusi!"
Zhao Xu turned around and walked towards the Yanzhou sand table next to Qinzhou.
"Ningjindusi?" Chang Wei and the generals had not yet come back to their taste.
Zhao Xu nodded, "This move is called to surround Wei and save Zhao."
"Wei? Zhao?" The generals were even more confused. They had never heard of this idiom.
Zhao Xu then talked about the process of surrounding Wei and rescuing Zhao.
Of course, there is no allusion in this world that surrounded Wei and saved Zhao.
So he told everyone that it was just a story.
"So that's the case. It was really a divine plan to surround Wei and save Zhao at that time." Chang Wei stubbed his tongue and couldn't help but sigh.
At this time, he also figured out what the King of Yan was going to do.
Beidi currently has huge advantages in Qinzhou, and the price of fighting is too high.
So it is better to attack Ningjindushi directly.
"Is it just that Mulehon will really give up the besieging of Xiancheng for Ning Jindushi?" Chang Wei frowned.
Zhao Xu smiled, "Don't forget that Beidi's artillery was made in Jincheng, and what if his son Ulanba was added?"
He told everyone about his capture of Ulaanba.
"Hahaha..." Chang Wei was shocked and then laughed, "Your Highness, Mo Cheng is so impressed by you. In this way, Mulehong really has to consider it. Mo Cheng will go to Yanguan and lead troops to fight."
Zhao Xu shook his head, "No, this is not the way to play against Ningjindushi this time."
On land, the mobility of the royal family's personal army cannot be compared with that of the Northern Di Iron Cavalry.
However, at sea, the fleet's maneuverability is incomparable to the Beidi Iron Cavalry.
He could use his fleet to send some soldiers from the royal palace to the rear of Ningjindushi.
When they learned that an enemy appeared in the rear, the Beidi army in Yan Pass would definitely send troops to encircle and suppress it.
However, taking advantage of the warships at sea, the soldiers of the royal palace were able to shoot one shot and change another place, which gave the Beidi people the illusion that war was blooming everywhere and made them exhausted.
Once the Beidi people dispersed their troops for this, they could concentrate their superior forces to attack the Beidi army in Yan Pass.
Of course, this is just a strategy taken on the east side.
Although Ulaanbaganing Jindushi is heavy enough, he cannot guarantee whether Mulehon will submit.
