I am a nobleman in Spring and Autumn

Chapter 297 The Horror Level of a Full-Level Boss

In the original history, when the "Zhiyao" besieged "Jinyang", he encountered a water attack. Tens of thousands of troops fed the fish, and he was caught and killed, and his head was made by Zhao Wuxie Wine vessels, Zhi's nearly 200-year-old foundation was divided among Zhao, Wei and Han.

Sun Wu said to Zhi Xuwu: "The Zhao family built the city here with the intention of setting up a bureau."

What's the meaning?Anyway, Ji Seogo didn't understand.

For the same thing, some people can guess the beginning and end of it just by knowing a general idea, while others are still confused when the facts are in front of them.

The situation is that Sun Wu made a round of inspection and found that "Jinyang" is naturally suitable for the layout and use of water attack. It only needs to build a dam at the intersection of Fenshui and Tushui, so that a large amount of water can be stored without the arrival of the rainy season. One or more diversion canals were excavated on the south bank, and after the embankment burst, a large amount of water could be tilted towards the direction of "Jinyang".

Sun Wu speculated that it was impossible for the Zhao family not to have discovered that advantage, and it should be one of the relief plans they would use when "Jinyang" was besieged one day.

Water attack this thing, right?There were few examples throughout the Spring and Autumn Period, and it was not used repeatedly by the Qin army until the Warring States Period.

Therefore, it is normal for Ji Seo-oh not to have relevant concepts.

If Sun Wu's guess is correct, it can only be said that it is the Zhao family who dug such a big hole during the city building stage. It is really very possible that the Zhao family dares to be the "first in the world" family tradition.

Waiting for Zhi Xuwu to understand, even though he still doesn't know how to operate, he must have scolded Mrs. Zhao in his heart for being cruel, so he couldn't help but ask, "Does Zhao Wuxi know?"

On this point, Sun Wu believed that Zhao Bolu or Zhao Wuji was absolutely clear about which one got Zhao Yang's explanation, perhaps it was Zhao Wuji who was more likely.

After all, Zhao Yang lost his status as Zhao Bolu's heir before his death, and Zhao Bolu came back later because the script did not go according to Zhao Yang's plan.

"Zhao Wuxie will never turn back. Our army can encircle 'Jinyang', but do not attack. Let people build dams to store water, and then attack with water." Sun Wu directly solved the mystery.

At present, there should be [-] to [-] defenders in the city of "Jinyang", plus the few camps outside, the total number is about [-]?

Among the six camps prepared by the Zhao family, three of them became empty camps, and Zhi's troops checked and settled in directly.

It's said to be a siege, but in fact, Zhi's troops have already launched battles with Zhao's various ministries outside the city.

Sun Wu once again showed his skills, he could either mobilize his troops to fight more or less, or he could attack a certain camp of the Zhao family, attracting Zhao Jun from other camps to rescue him, defeating the Zhao Jun who left the camp again and again, accumulating more and more. There were nearly [-] Zhao troops, but their own losses were so slight that the Zhao troops did not dare to act rashly.

As the titular general, Zhi Xuwu discovered a very crucial point and thought: "Yao's military style is very similar to Sun Wu's, but Yao is not as comfortable as Sun Wu."

In fact, he is good at creating combat opportunities, and he can take advantage of the opportunity. It's just that Zhiyao's experience in leading troops is obviously not as much as Sun Wu's. Moreover, Zhiyao's style has the recklessness that Jin people should have, while Sun Wu is more oily.

And after Sun Wu really started to command Zhi's army, he felt extremely emotional in his heart.

The most obvious thing is that the Jin army must be better than the Wu army, and the execution of military orders is so serious that it is rigid.

Sun Wu used the new army of Zhi's two "brigades" most conveniently. When they gradually encountered tough bones, they released these two "brigades" without even thinking about it. Effect.

If you want to say that Sun Wu has any negative views on Zhishi's new army, it is probably because the competition for the head of the enemy army was a bit serious during the war?

Of course, the Zhi Clan has fully implemented the method of counting meritorious service by the leader, and there have been incidents of competition for the leader in various ministries, but the desire of the soldiers of the new army to perform meritorious deeds is more barbaric.

"Daijun has been rescued, my family is following him on horseback, and Yanghu led the army to station in Xiawu Mountain to wait for work." Zhi Xuwu had just received the military report, and habitually found Sun Wu to report.Looking at it this way, he obviously felt dependent on Sun Wu.

Sun Tzu had the same opinion about riding a horse alone as most people did. He thought it was a kind of infantry who rode a horse to improve mobility. Later, he was taken by Zhiyao to inspect it and learned that Zhi’s horse riding alone was different from other families or other races. It's all different.

First of all, Zhiyao has already produced horseshoes, as well as stirrups and saddles, and has deployed troops.

Therefore, even if Zhishi's riders can not only shoot arrows on horseback, but also charge when necessary, whether they can be regarded as cavalry depends on whether they can stand the test.

To put it bluntly, not every cavalry that fights on horseback can be called a cavalry, nor does it just look at the equipment installed, it still needs to be able to withstand the test and have a record to prove itself.

As for Zhiyao's making of horseshoes, stirrups and saddles, will they be imitated?At present, foreign races do not have that kind of productivity. Even if they imitate stirrups and saddles, the most important horseshoe among the "three treasures" of cavalry cannot be made by foreign races anyway.

There is one absolute fact. In fact, the stirrup appeared very early. It was originally used as a tool to assist in getting on the horse, and it was usually a single-sided style.Why it is not popularized and so on is really a bit unclear.

Another big fact is that horseshoes are more important than stirrups and saddles. War horses without horseshoes have higher requirements on road conditions. If they hit stones, the horseshoes can be abolished. Enjoy the ride on the bad road full of gravel.

So yes, whether or not horseshoes are installed will make a huge difference in the loss of war horses.

Zhi Xuwu's simple "followed closely" made Sun Wu understand a lot of connotations.

The situation is that about [-] Zhishi cavalry have been following Zhao Wuxie and Daijun's army lingeringly, seizing the opportunity to go up and shoot a wave of arrows to harass them repeatedly, and they will suddenly attack the camp and set fire to it at night. .

Zhao's chariots and infantry couldn't catch up with Zhi's cavalry at all, and it was difficult for Zhi's cavalry to be fooled by trying to encircle them.

It was even worse for Dai Guo to chase on horseback alone, and he was killed one by one like a target, adding another batch of usable horses to Zhi's cavalry.

This kind of tactic was not only the first time it appeared in the land of Zhuxia, it might also be the first time Xiao Poqiu was used, which made Zhao Jun and Dai Jun miserable.

After Sun Wu listened, he walked to the side of the case and sat down, picked up a pen and began to write letters to Zhiyao.

The content of the letter is to persuade Zhiyao to let go of that group of Zhao troops, and to explain the benefits of Zhao Wuxie and that Zhao army's arrival in Daiguo to Zhishi.

Zhi Xuwu read a part of the content, and couldn't help but said: "Even if the Zhao family doesn't pass away, my family can also pass away."

While continuing to write, Sun Wu said: "It is the king's way to have a teacher who is famous. In addition, the Zhao family will steal the country when it enters the dynasty. In the future, the Jin army will have its name on the dynasty, and it can also be returned to the generation's heart. Seeking long-term peace and stability. In other words, the Zhao family has become a grassroots without roots, so there is nothing to worry about."

As for the fact that the Zhao family will have a force of more than one legion in Daiguo?Sun Wu really didn't think it would be difficult to attack. Compared with the point of being justified, even if the difficulty of sending troops to attack in the future will increase, the facts will prove to be worthwhile.

And this is actually the gap in strategic vision, otherwise Zhiyao would not have thought about it and made Zhiyao agree after Sun Wu thought that Zhao Wuxie should be let go of "Jinyang".

Zhi Xuwu just has the reckless character of the Jin people, it's not that he can't listen to the correct words, so he asked instead: "It's been a month since the dam was built, when will the water flood 'Jinyang'?"

The complex dam repair project was carried out by a team from Gongshu. It took 2 people and seven days to repair the dam.

Later, the public transportation team presided over the work of raising the east bank of Fenshui River, and at the same time excavated a waterway that facilitated the accumulation of water rushing towards "Jinyang" after the embankment broke.

The Zhi family must have secrecy in doing this, which is equivalent to blocking Zhao Jun in the city of "Jinyang" and various camps.

A little bit of rash action would trigger the full attack of the Zhi's troops. The repeated losses can actually be tolerated. What is unbearable is that they have not won a single time, and they will not take the initiative to attack when their morale is low.

Gubu Ziqing, who is better at internal affairs than military affairs, can sense something is wrong. If he wants to guess what is wrong, he has no clear direction. Said it was busy work.

Gubu Ziqing, who suffered from insomnia and neurasthenia repeatedly, managed to fall asleep in the early morning of the new day. Most likely, she was woken up just after falling asleep. After listening to the report with big bags under her eyes, she wondered if she had heard it wrong.

Gubu Ziqing asked in surprise and joy: "What? All the enemy troops outside the city are gone???"

Must be hallucinating!
Zhi's army came and besieged "Jinyang" for almost two months. There was no tentative attack on "Jinyang".

The Zhao family actually stored more grain in "Jinyang" than imagined. Even in the most difficult time, they did not embezzle it. They have maintained enough food for a [-]-strong army for a year.

Based on the enemy's misjudgment of Zhao's food storage in "Jinyang", they are secretly planning a counterattack.

As a result, the play was only halfway through, and Zhi's army withdrew overnight?

Gubu Ziqing didn't even bother to wash up, and hurried to the city wall to have a look, but she could see the camp left by Mrs. Zhi, and even the figures of her own soldiers inside, but there were rows of question marks on her forehead.

"Has someone been sent to search for it?" Gubu Ziqing asked.

Zhao Huo replied, "Of course."

One of the secrets about "Jinyang" is that there is a plan for water attack. Even if Zhao Yang's death was not too sudden, anyway, even his retainers would not tell it. Gubu Ziqing naturally didn't know about it.

Because even Zhao Huo didn't know about it, he agreed to Gubu Ziqing's suggestion to let the army go out to clean up the battlefield and then reinforce the camp.

Waiting for Gubu Ziqing to learn that all Zhishi's troops had camped on the mountain, and there was no extra time to think about why Zhishi was like that, a burst of thunder-like sound came from the south...
