Chapter 31 Liangzhou Army Attacks Sihui City (5)
That's a must, just like Yangzhou, that's a must. Jingzhou is not necessarily the case. Ma Chao also knows that if you really use the naval army to defend something, then 80% of it will be said that it is for the Jiangdong army to take advantage of it. After all, the naval army on one side is not as good as the other side, and the defense cannot be done. That's it, so the Liangzhou army always uses infantry to defend. Don't count on the naval army, that's no use. Yes, because it's not as good as others. Otherwise, the Liangzhou army has a strong naval army, not to mention that it's weaker than the Jiangdong army.
If there is not that big gap, just be weak. If that happens, they will attack Yangzhou, which is the same. And if he doesn't lead troops to Yangzhou, and even Jingzhou has no naval defense, it is enough to explain the problem. That's it. If the gap between the naval army and the Jiangdong army is not that big, Ma Chao would think it would be fine. But obviously, the fact is not that way, and he has to say yes
Let Gan Ning continue to train the naval army, but he cannot stop. That's it. The gap is not small, but if we don't train hard, we will finally narrow the gap a little. Otherwise, we have to change back to what we used to be. So in Ma Chao's opinion, our naval army continues to train and then attack Yangzhou, so we will naturally wait for the opportunity to be almost done. Let's talk about it then.
Now, there is really no chance. Go to Jiaozhou first, and then talk about other things. That's right. Now that you can take Jiaozhou, you can take that place. If you don't even take Jiaozhou, you still can't go there. Now that you haven't even taken Jiaozhou, you naturally don't have to think about Yangzhou. That's definitely not. If Ma Chao and Liangzhou army don't have Long, how can you talk about going to Shu? That's right. So, you have to take Long and then talk about looking at Shu after you get Long. Therefore, now you haven't even won a county in Jiaozhou. How can Ma Chao and the others talk about looking at Shu? Therefore, now you haven't even won a county in Jiaozhou. How can Ma Chao and others say that
Even if you don't think about Yangzhou, the situation in Yangzhou must at least be said to have to wait until your side takes Jiaozhou, and the strength gap between the Jiangdong Army and the Jiangdong Army is not that big. If the difference between the navy is still quite large, then it can only be said to have to wait until your side takes Jiaozhou and attack a certain county or two county in Yangzhou. If there are too many, then there is no
The Liangzhou army is still fighting in Jiaozhou, and now it is taking down a county town. It is indeed too few, not enough at all. It is true that our own losses are true, but it seems that the Jiangdong army and the others have lost more. Ling Tong has 10,000 troops, and in the end there are less than a thousand people left. Now it happens to be in Sihui City, which Ma Chao and the others know. However, the Sihui City guarded by Sun Bo was guarding Ling Tong before
The Zhongsu City is still incomparable. That is, not only is he guarding that place, but it is also 5,000 more people than Sihui. The key is that the more than 5,000 came from Yangzhou, and Ma Chao and the others had to pay attention to it. That's good. And Sihui, it really won't pay much attention to it, that's right. If it's Panyu, it's necessary to pay more attention to it, that's right. And Sihui, it's not worth how to pay attention to it. The three counties to attack, Ma Chao and Liangzhou Army, paid the most attention to Panyu, and then
It was Zhongsu, and the last one was Sihui, or they didn't pay much attention to that place. The first two should be paid attention to. The Sihui cannot compete with Panyu and Zhongsu, that's it. Otherwise, it might not be like this, and that's right. But just a third-rate general like Sun Bo is guarding, with less than 5,000 people of less than 6,000 people, and Ling Tong was left with less than 1,000 people.
So just that, for Ma Chao and Liangzhou Army, for their soldiers, especially Ma Dai, he felt that if he wanted to perform well, it would not be impossible to win the city in three days. Of course, that would depend on his own soldiers. It would not be enough to rely on himself alone. And it also depends on how the other party performed. Sun Bo was nothing, a third-rate general. It would look at how their less than 6,000 troops played. Even if they performed well, he could still play for four days.
Breaking the city is nothing. Indeed, his ideas are actually similar to Sun Bo. At least the latter also thinks that he may not be able to hold it for three days. If four days are, he will perform well, that is. If four days are, it can also be said to be his great wish, that is. His biggest wish is naturally to break through. This is what Sun Bo wants, not something to block the Liangzhou army or something. That is impossible. Therefore, he thought that he could break through, which is more realistic, and then he would keep it for four days.
This is also true. And to compare it, it is the one in front, that is, breakthrough, which is more important to him. In Sun Bo's opinion, no matter how many days he can hold on, it is definitely not the most important thing. Even if it is only two or three days, it doesn't matter as long as you can break through, it doesn't matter. It's really decades in troubled times, and he also knows that in such an era,
If you don’t have the ability, just rely on your lord’s tribe. To be honest, there will definitely be no major development. At most, you will be the head general of a small county town. That’s all. Other things, if you want to be promoted and make money, if you don’t have the ability, you will definitely not be able to make meritorious service. Even if you are your lord’s tribe, it will not work, and it’s still so far away. This is the same, so...
He knew that what was more important to him. It was not that he had to hold on for many days, but that was just his own strength. That was. After so much trouble in the world and the battle between princes, he had reached the point where he had divided the world into three parts. As a third-rate general, Sun Bo really knew how powerful a person's strength was. That was really true. Anyway, from his own perspective, if he was not a third-rate general, he would have made more contributions, even if he was a second-rate general.
It is not impossible to be the prefect. Even if I am not the prefect and have not made enough contributions, I will never be in a county town like Sihui where people are not valued. Even Ling Cao and his son look down on him, let alone Ma Chao and Liangzhou Army. That is. Sun Bo dares to say that if he is a second-rate general, he doesn't have to be better than Ling Cao and his son, he just has to be a
Just a second-rate person. In that case, I will definitely be able to give Ma Chao and the others a high look. Moreover, the people in Sihui here will definitely not be only five thousand, but only my own division. Ling Cao and his son will definitely have to send 5,000 people from Yangzhou, and reinforcements from that place will come to him. If he has that ability, he doesn’t have to say anything, they all have to do that.
If you have enough strength, then people can say that you can respect you. If you don’t have enough strength, there is nothing. That is, how strong your strength is not only affecting your status in your lord, but also affecting the influence of your superiors on you. Really. As Sun Bo knows, Ling Tong is not his superiors, but he has nothing. At most, his thoughts are the same as his father, so it is mainly Ling Cao. After all, he is the prefect of Nanhai County, and it can be said that he is ordered by military orders.
That's right. Since Ling Cao didn't force him to let him do whatever he wanted, it obviously means the problem. It's not that he is strong, but just because of his identity, just that. If he is not a member of his lord's clan and does not have the surname Sun, then the father and son will definitely not have the same attitude, just. But he must have strength, as long as he is a second-rate
The general, no matter what his identity or status, Ling Cao and his son would not underestimate and underestimate him. That would not be. So the fundamental thing is your own strength. Your identity is really an external object. It is really. Sun Bo is still more than thirty or forty, so he can see it. He is not stupid, right? So he should know what he should understand, and he really knows what he should understand, and that is. Therefore, he thinks more about having the strength of a second-rate general, rather than
It's like defending the city and defending it. Actually, this is the case. If you have great abilities, you can naturally hold it for longer and more time. This is the case now. You want to increase your strength, mainly break through, and then you can defend the city more. Yes, if you are not capable, just a third-rate, then even if you want to hold it for a few more days, Sun Bo thinks it's not easy to use. It can be said that if you are a second-rate general and have the level and ability, then even if you have more than 5,000 troops here, you will not be able to do it.
Six thousand people, and five thousand people, have no experience, and are not much better than the new recruits. But to be honest, I still have confidence that I can't compare with Ling Tong. At least my ability is not as good as others, and I don't have more soldiers, but I definitely have more than half of them. After all, the Liangzhou army has long been less than 100,000 people, and they have left three thousand people in Zhongshou. Therefore,
There are only 90,000 people in them, less than 90,000 people, but there are indeed a few, which is really good. So Sun Bo is confident that if he is a second-rate general, he can defend for about six days and bring these less than six thousand people. That's fine. If you say too much, you won't have confidence, but if you are a third-rate general, you still want to keep for four days
Then, if it is second-rate, it will take six days. But it is very likely that he felt that even if he is really a second-rate general, he might not be able to hold on for six days. Maybe he can't stand it in five days. The key is his own soldiers, which is the big problem. If Ling Tong had the ability to take ten days with his own 10,000 troops, he would have only been guarding for ten days. Yes, he didn't see it with his own eyes, that's right, but he could still figure it out. It's really not easy for him. He didn't say anything to him, and that's not that.
It's so necessary, but Sun Bo can figure it out. Just look at Ling Tong and the status of the remaining soldiers. In fact, you know that they have really struggled to fight in Zhongsu City, and this is normal. You should say that it's normal to defend for ten days. If you want to say simple things, it's not normal. Indeed, when you arrive here, the Liangzhou army passed through the war in Zhongsu City and stayed there
After three thousand people, this horse came to Sihui, and there were indeed fewer people. That was true. It was true that they were less than 90,000 people, of course they could be said to be nearly 90,000, which was correct. But it was true that they were fewer people in Liangzhou Army, but they said that there were even fewer people here. Lingtong still had 10,000 people guarding him, and there were less than 6,000 people here, and that was less than 1,000 people.
Ling Tong stayed there specifically. Without them, he would have fewer people here, only five thousand people, which was half of Zhongsu. The key is that his own troops were half of Ling Tong's previous ones, but their Liangzhou army did not say that they were half of the previous ones. Yes, in reality, with Ling Tong's remaining troops, there were a little more troops here. But even so, according to the proportion, he still could not compare with the Liangzhou army. That was. Ling Tong's previous troops were one-tenth of the Liangzhou army, and the opponent was ten tenth of the Liangzhou army.
Ten thousand, they were ten thousand, so. But when we arrived here, there were less than 90,000 Liangzhou troops, even if it was a little more than 80,000, it would be less than 6,000, which was far less than one tenth of the other. Because now, the number of Liangzhou troops is not ten thousand, but at least it must be more than 8,000. But here we are only close to Sihuicheng.
Six thousand people, plus Ling Tong left it specially, that's it. Therefore, he couldn't see any advantage on his side, it was just occupying the city, defending the city was an advantage. But he was not a general to defend the city. If it was a water battle, he was not afraid of the other party. Even if the other party came to 100,000 people, he dared to say that he brought 5,000 people to deal with them. It was just a matter of losing.
The entire army was wiped out. But in that case, our side could also make the Liangzhou army lose more. At least if we defend the city, we would not lose much. Therefore, our infantry is not as good as the Liangzhou army. Moreover, our side has not experienced much war, but others are stronger than our side. That's right. Indeed, it would be strange if they are not stronger than our side. Yes, the other side did not say that there are no new recruits, but they still said that they are mixed together, and this has always been. But when it comes to me,
Fang is not in Jiaozhou, at least not here. Ling Tong left less than a thousand people, but those people and him had already mixed together, not to mention that they were of great use, but indeed, they didn't see much effect. It was better than the 5,000 people who came to Yangzhou directly, which was better than less than a thousand people, even if the latter passed Zhongsucheng
But to be honest, if there are five thousand people like this, it is really good, but less than a thousand people are really scarce. It is not that I am greedy, but the facts are in front of me.
