The great hero of the Silk Road, starting from a farm farmer

Chapter 169 The second uncle said that Yuyuan City is not a good place!

"Inform all the counselors of the city lord's palace and members of the military team captain and above to convene an emergency military council tonight." After such a major change, the Yungu Army must discuss the strategy in advance. Song Yingkui quickly asked Yang Shunan to notify the main members. Have a meeting.

The abandoned land of Xisu is connected to Beixiang, but the connecting place is far away from Wuying. For Song Yingkui and others in Wuying, Beixiang is just a rumored existence and has nothing to do with normal life. .

However, when Huizhou City, more than 400 miles away, was occupied by Beixiang, Beixiang became more than just a rumor.Starting from Huizhou City, if the force is pressed harder, the cavalry can reach the fifth battalion in two days, and there is no big city or large-scale Western Fan garrison to block it.In other words, in the future, the Yungu Army will have to guard against not only the Western Fan Army, but also the Beixiang Army, and it is impossible for them to come to the Fifth Battalion to cause trouble.

This is still limited to the estimate that the Beixiang Army will stop within the scope of Huizhou City. If their strategic intention of mobilizing troops this time is greater, they want to capture one of the three cities of Wazhou, Gongchang and Longyou, or combine these three cities. If the city is occupied.The strategic balance previously formed between the Yungu Army and the Western Fan Army will be reset. With the current reputation of the Five Battalions, Beixiang cannot ignore it. How to get along with the Beixiang people in the future is very problematic.

Beixiang is not as unmotivated as Xifan, which is located on the plateau and has been a country for hundreds of years.They now span from the north of Youyun to the Xitao Plain and even the central and northern areas of Xisu, and have control over the grassland tribes in Monan, Moxi, and Modong.In terms of military strength alone, it is the most powerful existence among the regimes that can hear the news.It is not easy to have an equal conversation with such a giant being.

While waiting for others to arrive for the meeting, Song Yingkui stayed in the office, carefully considered the current situation, and drew a rough map to deduce the situation.

Staring at the sketch, Song Yingkui thought: The Beixiang people suddenly launched a large-scale attack on the abandoned Xisu land occupied by the Western Fan. This was a dangerous signal for the Yungu Army, but it was not without opportunities?If the situation changes further, it seems that Yun Gujun will have a chance to get out?The balance formed since the Xifan people implemented the tax-sharing system will be broken, and it is still very tempting to take advantage of the chaos to control the entire Yuyuan County.With the territory of a county, whether it is dealing with the people of Xifan or the people of Beixiang, the leeway will be much larger and the waist will be stronger.

"Everyone should have heard about the fact that the Beixiang people occupied Huizhou City. We have called a meeting at night. Firstly, to study and judge the impact of this incident on our Yungu Army, so that we can prepare response arrangements in advance. Secondly, we are here to discuss the situation with you. The functions of this matter should be arranged. In short, we must be prepared and deal with it in advance!" After the participants arrived, Song Yingkui took the lead and stated the theme of the meeting.

After talking about the topic, he continued: "Deputy Commander Yang, first talk about the military information gathered so far and your estimate of the next situation."

After Yang Shunan was named, he cleared his throat and said, "It should be confirmed that the Beixiang people occupied Huizhou. All the businessmen who have contacts with Huizhou are talking about it. As for the next situation, I think the Beixiang people are It will not stop at the boundary of Huizhou. The merchants said that Beixiang's soldiers in Huizhou will exceed [-] anyway, and they still have soldiers to gather in Huizhou. I guess they will attack the nearby Gongchang City first, and then Gather troops to attack Wazhou."

"Approximately how many soldiers and horses does Xifan have in Wazhou and Gongchang?" When asking this question, Song Yingkui realized that he had made a mistake and had not established a corresponding military intelligence agency, so that when there was a change in the military situation, he would not be informed at all. Can't figure out the specific situation of each party.

"I heard that there are about three to four thousand vassal soldiers in Wazhou City. There are only a few hundred troops stationed in Gongchang City. However, some of the Western vassal soldiers in Huizhou should have withdrawn to Gongchang City, plus other The number of troops stationed at the main road should exceed a thousand in one episode." Yang Shunan's grasp of the enemy's situation was not much better than Song Yingkui's, and his answer was also very vague. "Can the number of vassal troops stationed in Longyou City exceed two thousand?" Longyou is close to Qinzhou Pass, which is the front line of the confrontation between the Western Fan and Dazheng. There should be more troops than Gongchang, but the specific number, Song Yingkui Still haven't grasped it here.

Yang Shunan answered ambiguously: "There should be two thousand!"

After asking Yang Shunan, the venue became quiet. Others didn't know as much about military affairs as Yang Shunan, so naturally they had nothing to add.Song Yingkui, on the other hand, was deep in thought.

If Beixiang plans to abandon the entire Xisu territory this time, he should attack Gongchang City first, which will cut the Xifan troops in this area into two pieces.If the battle of Gongchang City goes well, according to Song Yingkui's idea, there is no need to put too much effort into the Western Fan soldiers in Longyou City and go directly to push Wazhou City. As long as Wazhou City is pushed back, the Western Fan soldiers in Longyou City will be defeated. It's natural to run.

If you think about the battle situation from the perspective of the commander of the Western Domain, it is the best policy to quickly withdraw the soldiers from Longyou to the front line of Gongchang and stick to the two cities of Gongchang and Wazhou.

After clarifying the evolution of the situation, Song Yingkui came back to his senses and said: "If Beixiang wants to attack Gongchang City, how about our Yungu Army marching into Yuyuan County? At present, in addition to the two armies of Xifan and Beixiang, our army is undoubtedly the largest in the region. Strong, in times of chaos, we should shoulder greater responsibilities and protect more suffering neighbors."

No matter how the war situation develops, let's take advantage of the chaos first. Attack is the best defense. Taking up most of the territory of Yuyuan County, the strategic depth is much greater.Therefore, Song Yingkui planned to formulate a strategic plan for this response based on planning to occupy most of Yuyuan County.

"Kuiwa and Yuyuan counties cannot be occupied! They are not as prosperous as Wuying. There are no big dangerous passes in Dayingchuan to defend. Another Yuyuan is close to Wazhou. The Beixiang people want to attack Wazhou and Yuyuan. It is a must-take place. If the Xifan people want to hold on to Wazhou and Yuyuan, they will be the battlefield. At this time, the Yungu army enters Yuyuan, like a rat in a wind box, being attacked on both sides. And Wazhou is our Xisu's The first attack on the important city, Beixiang and Xifan will not fail to make up their minds." Before anyone else could speak, Jiang Yunjin actually spoke up first, and rejected Song Yingkui's plan to occupy Yuyuan City with just one mouthful.

ah?What the second uncle said seems to make sense.After all his analysis, Yuyuan City's idea seems to be dead!When entering Yuyuan City at this time, isn't it just a matter of getting on a pole and blocking the bullets for the Xifan people?
"Uncle, in your opinion, how should we plan now." A few days ago, Song Yingkui looked down on Second Uncle more and more, thinking that he was useless to him.But tonight's speech made people dare not despise him anymore, so he hurriedly asked for advice.

Hearing this, the second uncle stroked his beard and said seriously: "If you want to find a place, Didao should be the first choice. Didao is the gateway to the two Taohe prefectures. In addition to the Yungu mountainous area and the Manwa mountainous area, Didao also has Taohe area." In the river valley, although the river is not as big as Yuyuan, the water is better than Yuyuan. Setting up a pass in Manwa and garrisoning heavy troops to guard the pass can withstand most threats from enemies coming from the north. In this way, with Didao as the base, both It can gather strength and gradually control the two states of Taohe River, so it is the best choice!"
