I am a nobleman in Spring and Autumn

Chapter 263 Everything is ready

Of course, in many cases, not to mention a few percent success rate, if you meet it, you will get it, and you won't even have to choose.

Having a choice is a kind of happiness. Thanks to the strength of Jin, Zhiyao can often be a happy person.

A new round of military meetings was held.

At the meeting, Wei Ju took over the task of taking a detour to the rear of the Wu army.This task should have been carried out by Fox, whose troops are more mobile. However, the mobility of Fox's troops is strong. The problem is that they can't fight battles.

What is a battle?In the usual sense, it is an array to fight.Being able to list formations means that soldiers have received sufficient training and discipline.With sufficient training and strong discipline, it is difficult for a similar army to collapse even if it encounters the elite of the enemy.

It has been seven or eight years since the Fox family came back to the state of Jin. They worked very hard to restore the normal state that a member of Zhu Xia should have, but seven or eight years was obviously not enough.

Therefore, the Fox family has participated in the national war several times, and it is almost impossible to see that they can put on a decent formation. They really have no chance for formation warfare.

At present..., or in the long run, until the rise of the Khitan, even as strong as the Huns, they will not be able to put up any decent formations.The Khitan was part of Xianbei at the beginning, and they were once annexed by Murong Xianbei due to internal defeat during the Eastern Jin Dynasty.

Later, Murong Xianbei went south to the Central Plains. They stayed in the Northeast region and lived a semi-agricultural and semi-nomadic life. They gradually split into eight tribes. They didn't shake up until the middle and late Tang Dynasty. They were also the first around Zhuxia to master advanced smelting and forging technology. tribe.

Let alone Khitan now, the Xiongnu can’t even see their shadows. It is normal for foreign races to collapse collectively. The Fox family was once alienated. It is not easy to return to normal, let alone catch up with the level of the rest of the Jin family in a short time. up.

Of course, if the Zhi family, the Wei family or the Han family, the Zhao family, and the attention are willing to do their best to help the Hu family, the Fox family can really catch up in a short period of time. The problem is that they only do that when they are mentally ill.

Do you think everyone is Zhao Wu?Starting with a mother, the fiefdom, population, and resources are all given by others?
Wei Ju left with one "division" and two "brigades" of his own. He had to use about [-] troops to take on the responsibility of stopping Wu Jun's reinforcements who might appear, or stopping Fucha's main force who might go south. The situation hit a piece to go.

It is precisely because of the very difficult task that only the Zhi family and the Wei family can do it among the several high-ranking families who went to the expedition. The Zhi family needs to be the main force to attack the Wu army, so we have to let the Wei family perform such a task.

Wei Ju set off first, and they had to carefully avoid the parts where fierce fighting was erupting, and the time it took was hard to say.

Fortunately, it is an era of sparsely populated land, and the Wu army divided the Qi army into several parts and besieged them, and the distance between them was a bit far.

There is another thing to be thankful for, that is, the armies of most countries are now in a state of war, and there are still not many generals who send scouts to pay close attention to the surrounding areas.

"The main force of the Wu army is in 'Ai Ling', and the defenders are struggling to support them, and they may be in danger of breaking the city." Zhishen was reciting his lines.

To be honest, Qi Jun is still relatively persistent.If the army of other countries were besieged in a foreign country, it would take half a month to last.

Hu You and Zhong Quan looked at each other, and then they both looked at Zhi Yao who was sitting next to Zhi Shen.

Zhishen, who completely ignored his colleagues, continued to recite his lines, and continued: "Except for 'Ai Ling', the rest are partial teachers. I want to take 'Ai Ling' directly, and I will fight with all my strength to determine the outcome of this battle."

In an instant, everyone including Zhiyao, Hu You, and Zhong Quan stood up and saluted: "No!"

The order has been issued, and the Jin people's style is to stop talking nonsense, and the people who should work have left the Chinese army's tent one by one to be busy.

"Is this really a good move?" Zhishen asked with a rather apprehensive expression, changing from the violent pull of Kuba just now.

In addition to Zhishen, there are Zhiyao, Zhixuwu, Sima Rangju, Zilu and other core members and retainers of the Zhi clan in the big tent of the Chinese army.

In such a scene, in fact, the core clan members and retainers did not have the slightest psychological fluctuation. The reason is of course that they are used to it.

Zhishen is not a person who is completely incompetent, and the education he has received does not allow him to become a waste. He is absolutely qualified in internal affairs, but his military ability can only be said to be average.This is the reason why Zhixuan took the lead at the growth stage, and Zhiyao took the lead when it was his turn to become the head of the family. Otherwise, the reality should force Zhishen to be more self-improving.

People, once you have something to rely on, it is really difficult to make much progress under normal circumstances.

Therefore, people really have to be pushed frequently in order to have a greater sense of crisis and seize every inch of time for self-discipline and self-improvement.

Zhiyao said: "Wu Jun and Qi Jun have been fighting fiercely for several months, and the siege battle is the most exhausting. Our army will surely win."

There is no need to say more about this at all, but Zhishen's emotions of worrying about gains and losses are too strong.

In fact, as for any army, they fought against the enemy for four or five months, entered the stage of the most time-consuming and the most casualties of the city offensive and defensive battle, who would not be surprised when a third-party army suddenly appeared At the same time, the thought of retreating came to mind.

It is analogous to launching an attack. You can understand the mentality of being ambushed halfway through. Basically, you panic first. If you support it, you may still have a chance. If you lose the belief in winning, you don’t need to fight anymore.

There is nothing wrong with the idea of ​​attacking them by surprise and attacking them unprepared. It is the core to scare the enemy army by surprise and seize its mind;

Zhishen was just asking, and had no intention of overturning Zhiyao's decision.

Their Jin army also set out on the same day, and it took three days to approach within [-] miles of "Ai Ling".

"The general of the army will lead his troops to the west side of 'Ai Ling' via 'Long Spoon'. We must wait for our headquarters to attack Wu before we can attack Wu Lu from the west side." Zhishen scolded Fang Qiu, looking very confident.

The "Long Spoon" belonged to the State of Lu. At present, Shusun Zhouchou was stationed with about [-] Lu troops. It was about [-] to [-] miles away from "Ailing", and it was an important channel for the Wu army to contact the State of Lu.

Originally, it would be best for the Jin army to capture the "Long Spoon" first to control it, but their strength is relatively limited, and Wu Jun's fierce reputation is so powerful that it is really hard to be underestimated. Zhiyao also underestimated the Lu army and decided not to fight "" Long Spoon", we must concentrate our forces to attack the Wu army first.

Hu Xie did not delay after answering the "promise" respectfully, and signaled to the driver that he could drive the chariot to the position of his own army, and he was going to take the troops to carry out the order.

Facing Zhong Quan's stare, Zhishen directly motioned for them to disperse.

No order is actually an order. The Zhong family and other small and medium-sized families that have not received new orders can just follow Zhi's subordinates obediently.

"In this way, there is only less than one 'army' left in our department." Zhishen and the others said with a broken face.

According to Zhiyao's arrangement, Wei Ju took about [-] troops to go south first, and without accident, he should have reached the south of "Ai"; Hu Jie also took about [-] troops to the south of "Long Spoon"; Originally, there were about [-] troops left, and after subtracting [-], there would be [-] left, which is actually a bit far from a reorganized army, with only three "divisions" and less than two "brigades" The troops are gone.

Zhishen has led troops into battle several times, whether Zhiyao has backhanded tactics or not, the troops have never been so tight, so it must be something to keep in mind.

And the [-] troops, including about [-] from the Zhong family and other small and medium-sized families, aggravated Zhishen's uneasiness.

Zhiyao had no choice but to repeat what she had said many times, and said, "My lord, the new troops from my two 'brigades' are here."

Don't look at the new army of only [-], it is estimated that it can withstand a "division" of the Jin army, and a "division" of the Jin army can often carry more than twice as many armies from other countries as its own. There should be no problem with the armies of various countries five times more than our own.

What is the situation now?

Wu Jun and Qi Jun were separated, and the main battlefield was on the "Ai Ling" side.

The Jin army is also dispersed, the main force will insert into "Ai Ling" from the east, Wei Ju's headquarters is in the south of "Ailing", and Hu Jie's headquarters is in the west of "Ailing", which means that once the Jin army launches an attack, It will be a trend of attack from three sides.

Zhiyao's choice is not complicated, trying to eliminate the main force of the Wu army first, and then deal with the scattered Wu army one by one. In fact, it doesn't matter even if part of the Wu army escapes in the end, the main thing is to eliminate the main force of the Wu army.

Qi army or Lu army?It's not that Zhiyao is big-hearted or proud. The truth is that Qi Jun and Lu Jun don't have time for Zhiyao to consume brain cells for the time being. You can cook whatever you want at any time.

someday.

Fu Chai, who was in "Ai Ling", was watching a new round of siege, and Feng Tong, who should not have appeared during the period, suddenly appeared.

"Your Majesty!" Feng Tong came from the State of Song, and reported to Fu Chai in a panic: "When I came, I was spying on the Wei family's army at 'Ai'!"

What the hell?
For a while, Fu Chai didn't realize it, and repeated in a daze: "Wei's army? In 'Ai' land?"

"Ai" is in the southwest of "Ai Ling", which belongs to the city of Lu State, and then it is the retreat route of the Wu army going north.

Fu Chai said suspiciously: "As the people of Qi said, the Jin army hesitated at Mount Mage and never moved. When will they arrive at the land of 'Ai'?"

It's not that Fu Chai doesn't believe Fengtong's words, it's just that the sudden appearance of Jin Jun in "Ai" is a bit weird, and he only spied it when Fengtong happened to pass by, and no one was alert in advance.

Feng Tong appealed: "My lord, since the Wei family is in the south, there must be another Jin army on the side. This is an ominous matter, and your lord should make a decision early!"

Fu Chai's expression kept changing, and his eyes moved back and forth between Feng Tong and Feng Tong, who were in the fierce city offensive and defensive battle. It seemed that he was caught in a great inner struggle.

The Qi army is almost unable to hold on anymore, withdrawing now?

Fu Chai's eyes kept flickering, and his expression became more and more ferocious. He asked Feng Tong, "The doctor should be in Song Dynasty, why did you come here?"

Feng Tong was a little frightened by Fu Chai's ferocious expression, he didn't even think about it, he didn't care whether the ground was dirty or not, whether there were stones or not, he just knelt down...
