The last three kingdoms

Chapter 932 The Reason for Choosing to Fight Sima Jun

In view of the fact that the Jin army marched in three routes, Liu Yin decided to attack the Jin army led by Sima Jun in the middle route first.

As soon as Liu Yin proposed this plan, he was questioned by Luo Xian. Luo Xian believed that the central army led by Sima Jun was the core of the Jin army and the strongest one. Rescue from the two wings can be obtained at any time. If the Shu army's attack is unfavorable, it is likely to fall into the enemy's anti-encirclement.Luo Xian suggested that if you want to choose to fight along the way, it is best to choose a weaker Jin army to start. Ma Long has 10 people along the way, and it is not easy to fight. It is relatively easy, and it is led by Wen Yang. this one.

Liu Yin smiled indifferently, and said confidently: "We are not old ladies who eat persimmons - we only pick soft ones, and choose to fight Sima Jun. There are several reasons. First, don't look at Sima Jun as a coach. The level and adaptability on the battlefield are far inferior to Wen Yang and Ma Long. The so-called one general is incompetent and exhausts the three armies. Although the Jin army's middle army is strong, as long as it is under the command of Sima Jun, it may not be able to perform Second, there must be blocking reinforcements around the point. While fighting Sima Jun, I have already arranged troops to block reinforcements from the east and west. Even if Wen Yang and Ma Long come to reinforce after hearing the news, they may not be able to easily Get close to Sima Jun; thirdly, the Jin army has just taken Xindu, and its momentum is in full swing. It is necessary to give the Jin army a head-on blow and dampen their spirit."

Choosing Sima Jun to attack was something that Liu Yin had considered long ago. In fact, the distribution of troops in the three groups of the Jin army was not too different. The east route was the one hundred thousand Qingzhou soldiers brought by Ma Long. Under the command of Ma Long, there is almost no difference between the [-] in the middle and [-] in the west, but in terms of the deployment of soldiers, Sima Jun's middle army is naturally superior to the other two, and most of them are elite and brave.

However, there are raging soldiers and raging generals. With Sima Jun's ability to govern the army, no matter how good the army is in his hands, it can only be wasted and wasted.Liu Yin and Sima Jun have fought against each other. Liu Yin is really not flattering about Sima Jun's military management level and adaptability. At the beginning, Pujin Pass, which was said to be impenetrable, was easily taken down by Liu Yin, which is enough to prove Sima Jun's high ability. down.

Compared with Sima Jun, his two deputies are two very good generals. Wen Yang, who is unparalleled in courage, and Ma Long, who is both wise and brave, are not masters who can be easily dealt with.Wen Yang had an astonishing performance in the Battle of Huainan, single-handedly entering seven times and exiting seven times, completely replicating Zhao Zilong's bravery in Zibanpo, and even Sima Shi died because of him, which shows Wen Yang's bravery in the world No one can beat it.

Although many years have passed, Wenyang's fighting spirit has not diminished at all. In the battle against the Huns, Wenyang's performance is also remarkable. In the case of a disadvantaged force, Wenyang tenaciously sticks to Jizhou and has made impressive achievements. Notable achievements.

Although the force value of individuals in large corps battles cannot directly affect the battle situation, the bravery and fearlessness of the general will definitely inspire the morale of the army to a great extent. Wen Yang's troops are known as the weakest of the three routes, but With Wen Yang around, it is not impossible to improve the combat capability of the Jin army to a certain extent.

Compared with Wenyang's bravery, Ma Long, who looks elegant and weak, is a more comprehensive general. Even Liu Yin is very curious about the [-] cavalry who used [-] warriors to destroy the bald tree. How did Malone do it?
Liu Yin didn't feel relaxed at all when fighting the bald tree function. Every battle was tough. If Liu Yin hadn't stole Ma Long's knowledge and made a sidecar, the outcome of the Battle of Hexi is hard to predict.

There are strong generals leading the army on both sides of the east and west, so Liu Yin would rather choose the mediocre Sima Jun than Wen Yang and Ma Long.

Of course, there is another reason why Liu Yin chose to use the Jin Army's Middle Route Army to attack Liu Yin, and that is to severely set back the spirit of the Jin Army. The morale of the Jin army will definitely have some negative effects. Liu Yin directly attacked the main force of the enemy's central army, just to kill the morale of the Jin army and at the same time improve the morale of his own army. It is better to fight against the Chinese army.

The only difficulty in fighting the central army is that there are troops from the Jin army on the left and right sides. Although there are hundreds of miles away from each other, it will only take a day or two for the reinforcements to arrive. It is not easy to eat it within two days, so how to block it will become a key.

In this regard, Liu Yin has arranged capable troops to take on this task. The Wudang Flying Army is responsible for blocking the western front, and the Tiger Army is responsible for blocking the eastern front. At the same time, Liu Yin also deployed the Yong'an Army on the periphery. Heyang'an Army, as the second echelon, will go forward for reinforcements at any time. In short, whether this campaign can achieve the greatest result depends on the results of the resistance. If the resistance mission is completed well, the result of this battle will definitely be luminous.

As for the army preparing to ambush in the middle, Liu Yin mobilized the remaining nine armies, with a total strength of 11 troops. As for the choice of the battlefield, Liu Yin determined the area of ​​Bolu and Anguo at the intersection of the three counties of Zhongshan, Anping, and Hejian. At the confluence of three mountains and five rivers, it is most suitable for ambushes.

Of course, if you want to lure Sima Jun to this place, you still need to make a fuss.

The first target of Sima Jun's attack after crossing the river was Lecheng, the city of Hejian County.Lecheng is only tens of miles away from Zhanghe River, and it only takes one day for the Jin army to rush to the city of Lecheng. blocking.

It was Fu Zhu's Tiger Cavalry Army who took charge of the blocking mission. Although Fu Zhu said that he was very reluctant to be the bait, he was still ordered by Liu Yin to fight. Liu Yin's reason was also very good. The Tiger Cavalry Army was more experienced as a bait , the previous tasks were completed quite successfully, and they were familiar with the road, and no one would be more suitable for this task than the Tiger Cavalry Army.

Fu Zhu had a depressed expression on his face, why is it always his turn for this "good thing", but since Liu Yin had given the order, Fu Zhu didn't dare to disobey the order, so he immediately took the Tiger Cavalry Army to Lecheng to set up defenses, he When he just arrived at the south of Lecheng, the Jin army's brigade had already killed them. Fu Zhu immediately ordered to line up and start a war with the Jin army.
