Kingdom of Heaven and Han

Chapter 1058 Preparation before the war

Wei Yang's division was mainly in the Anli Army, and a commander was stationed in Yingyang, not far from Linhe County where Kong Yanzhou was stationed. This year, the Yongqu River has not flooded, and the Yellow River has been blocked by Du Chong, so the battlefield is relatively ideal.

In the evening, Wei Yang held a meeting in Liyang County, where the Anli Army was stationed, to study how to fight.

With one division facing Kong Yanzhou's 20,000-strong army in Linhe County, the strength was slightly insufficient. Wang Xiaolie lent two commanders of Guangji Army Lin Wei to Wei Yang to join the attack on Kong Yanzhou. Thirty-four thousand people versus 20,000 people, an absolute advantage in military strength.

Wei Yang looked at everyone and said: "The fierce bandits in Kong Yanzhou's area cannot be underestimated in terms of combat effectiveness. Xuanfu transferred two commanders from Lin Wei and lent them to us. After adding the two commanders, our strength reaches 30,000. Four thousand people, facing Kong Yanzhou, we have the advantage in strength."

Li Songchen said: "We are in a remote place. Why did Xuanfu let us attack first?"

Wei Yang said: "Li Lin leads the soldiers and horses of the Prince's Palace. He has a higher salary and a relatively higher fighting spirit. Moreover, Li Lin is in the east. Xuanfu estimates that Li Lin may run away after Damingfu presents the city. Xuanfu doesn't want to The soldiers and horses of the Prince's Mansion engage in a trapped beast fight to give them a chance to escape, and then launch a follow-up attack. Kong Yanzhou is in the west, and the soldiers and horses are blocked by Li Lin, so they can only make a final resistance. We take the initiative to attack and have more opportunities. "

Li Songchen nodded: "I see. It's good to have a battle and see how our soldiers are training."

Wei Yang said: "The two commanders borrowed from Lin Wei should be temporarily led by Qian Ju. When the war started, Qian Ju was assigned to these two commanders to give them specific guidance on how to fight. When these two commanders arrived, There’s a lot I don’t understand.”

Li Songchen said: "That's fine. After I go down, they will have a channel to communicate with the headquarters."

Wei Yang said: "Okay, it's settled. Our troops will be divided into three parts for this attack. The left Yuhou Bai Chaoxing led the left army and two divisions of the front army to attack from the left; the right Yuhou Wenxing led the right army and the rear army. Two divisions attacked from the left. To the south of the river was the old course of the Yellow River. After Du Chong cut off the Yellow River, it was now a swampy land. The army could not move from there. Qianjia commanded the two borrowed divisions from Lin Wei and hid in To the east of Linhe. If Kong Yanzhou's troops retreat, they will immediately show up to intercept them. I will lead the main force of the Chinese army to respond from behind. All commanders must cooperate well and achieve seamless cooperation!"

Li Songchen, Bai Chaoxing and Wen Xing all said so together.

Wei Yang said: "Everyone must remember your offensive position. After going down, make good arrangements for the control below. Listen to the order and set off on time!"

Wen Xing said: "The two commanders under my leadership have to take a detour to the south of the city to attack Kong Yanzhou?"

Wei Yang nodded: "That's right. So you have to set off first to be ready!"

Wen Xing said: "We all use swords and guns the same way, why should I take a detour to the south? Let's attack the front together, isn't it good?"

Wei Yang frowned: "If you find it inconvenient, you can find someone else to go with! Are you willing?"

Wen Xing hurriedly stood up and said: "No need! There is nothing difficult to do by taking a detour to the south."

After speaking, Wen Xing saw that Wei Yang didn't say anything more, and then slowly sat down.

Wei Yang said: "This battle is very important to us. It is a test of the army since it was newly formed. Only if it is fought successfully can it mean that our newly formed division is successful and can fight tough battles! If it is not fought well, it means that the new formation has failed. Yes, unqualified! Kong Yanzhou was originally a fierce bandit in the Song Dynasty. He had always been a rogue and committed all kinds of evil. After finally escaping to Liu Yu, he became even more unruly. He committed countless evil deeds! Such a general led an army You can imagine what kind of qualities they have! It is impossible to make Kong Yanzhou's army strictly disciplined, but it is conceivable that it is extremely vicious! How to fight with such an army, you should think more and find a way! Dear Lords, The governor must shoulder his responsibilities and tell the soldiers why and how to fight!"

All the lieutenants, staff officers, and secretaries-general were shocked in their hearts and responded loudly. Wei Yang said: "Commander Meng Po will explain the specific layout and what everyone should pay attention to."

Meng Po stood up and said: "Wei Dutong has made it clear enough what the significance of this battle is. Now let me tell you what you should pay attention to."

Meng Po explained many things such as how each division should march, how they should form camps, how each team should contact each other.

Wei Yang said: "Qian Zhi and the two Yu Hous should go to your team and prepare to start the attack on time tomorrow morning!"

Li Songchen, Bai Chaoxing and Wen Xing stood up, crossed their hands and said goodbye.

Wei Yang watched the three people leave and sighed: "Tomorrow's battle against Kong Yanzhou, the three of them are crucial. It won't work if you don't mention it in your heart and get nervous. You must understand the principles of war. Only if you have sex can you show your proper style in tomorrow's battle."

Meng Po said: "The commander-in-chief's attitude just now was very harsh, which was really scary."

Wei Yang smiled and said, "I did speak more seriously just now in order to motivate them. However, what I said was not just plain talk. Kong Yanzhou was extremely vicious, and now that he has been cut off from his retreat, he must Fight to the death. This battle is not easy to fight."

Meng Po said: "It is true that compared with other Puppet Qi generals, Kong Yanzhou is relatively difficult to fight. However, we must also see that the Puppet Qi Army's general trend is over, and all the troops have no military morale. An army of 20,000 is extremely ferocious. After all, there are only a few who are extremely strict, and most of the soldiers still act with caution. As long as the attack is fierce, the backbone of the enemy army will be broken up in one fell swoop, and the battle will be easier to fight."

Wei Yang said: "The truth is this. What I worry about is whether we can disperse the enemy troops at once."

Meng Po said: "It depends on the two warlords, Bai Chaoxing and Wenxing. If they disperse at once, everything will be fine and the war will go smoothly. If they cannot disperse, it will be a tough battle. Kong Yanzhou was originally a bandit, and he fought hard. Without discipline, it all depends on the morale of the soldiers during the war. If the military formation cannot be broken up, but the military morale is still there, the combat effectiveness of the army will not be dispersed, which is not a good thing."

Wei Yang nodded: "Yes, it depends on the two of them."

After saying that, his head twisted into a flower.

Bai Chaoxing was selected from Zhai Cong's division. The people in Wen Xing and Zhang Yin's army were all capable of fighting and daring to attack. After the division transferred to Wei Yang came, there was no pressure and the battle went smoothly. Facing such a brave enemy, I don't know if they can withstand it.

If Kong Yanzhou is defeated, Kong Yanzhou will be unable to do anything. If they can't break up, they can only rely on the troops to pile up and attack forcefully.

Wei Yang never worried that his army could capture the enemy, but he was worried that the attack was not good enough and allowed Kong Yanzhou to escape with his life. Suddenly overwhelmed, Kong Yanzhou had no way to escape even if he escaped. , can only suffer death.
