Three Kingdoms.

  Chapter 1549 There must be a mystery

  Normally speaking, the same number of horses and horses occupy a much larger area than infantry camps. At the same time, there are some other requirements, such as being closer to water sources, making it easier for horses to wash and so on.

  Therefore, the small area designated by Feiqian is on the other side of the hillside, a piece of gentle ground along a small stream. From a rough look, it is indeed a good area, which is convenient for the horses to rest, but in fact, because of the forest on the opposite side of the creek, it is a little far away from the infantry camp, which leads to the actual safety of this area. The height is not high, and it may even be attacked in the opposite woods.

  Zhang Liao himself is very capable of commanding the army. In addition, although the sand table in the large tent of the Chinese army is simple, it can generally reflect the landscape of mountains and rivers, so Zhang Liao immediately felt that this position is not very appropriate.

  Of course, the most important reason is because the number of horse troops is not large.

Although the road from Hanzhong to Sichuan and Sichuan has opened up some dangerous mountain roads with gunpowder, after all, the amount of gunpowder is not very large, and the power is not very great, so it is not possible to directly dig tunnels like later generations. The convenience is only relatively speaking. Of course, the number of war horses entering Sichuan was also restricted, and the number was not large. The horse army under Zhang Liao's command at this time was only 650 people.

If it is one or two thousand more, or just doubled, Zhang Liao will set up two horse camps not far apart, like two wings on the left and right, guarding the infantry camp in the middle, even if any place is attacked In an attack, the horse army can also quickly gather and attack quickly. But now the overall number of cavalry is small, and every point of damage is reduced by one point, so naturally it is impossible to arrange camps in the same way as thousands of cavalry.

   "Master, you are..."

  Zhang Liao didn't believe that Feiqian spent a long time figuring out the sand table, picking left and right, but in the end he chose a flawed place to set up the horse camp, so Zhang Liao was also quite puzzled.

"An ordinary Sichuan and Shu general would not necessarily care about me waiting for Ma Jun, but..." Fei Qian said slowly, "Liu Xuande has lived in Youbei for a long time, so he knows the magic of Ma Jun...if he knows the flaw here, , then use rockets to intrude and destroy the water...especially when facing each other..."

  Zhang Liao nodded, and said: "Exactly, if the two armies are facing each other, if the horse army is attacked, there will be chaos. Even if they are restrained again, they will probably lose the opportunity to fight. It is impossible to implicate other fronts..."

"If this army wants to attack the horse camp without being discovered by our infantry camp, it has to go around this mountain and then enter this woodland..." Fei Qian gestured on the sand table with his hands, "Wen Yuan you Have you noticed...Normally speaking, if there are scouts from the other party, observing from the infantry camp in front, it is difficult to see this horse camp with the mountains and the camp blocking it..."

   "Unless the other party sets up a sentry on this mountain!" Zhang Liao said, pointing to a hill above the sand table.

   Feiqian smiled, and said: "Lieutenant Ling has sent people to survey the surrounding mountains, and there is no sign of Liu Xuande's sentry sentry."

  Zhang Liao seemed a little confused, he was a little dizzy, frowned and said, "My lord's intention is..."

   "Today, a certain appointed Lieutenant Liu to go out of the camp to survey the landform..." Fei Qian still smiled, but his eyes flickered, and said, "Wen Yuan may wish to pay attention to the number of people entering and leaving the camp... But, don't say anything..."

  Zhang Liao's eyes turned cold, and he said, "Master, you mean Captain Liu..."

"The defense map of Qi County sent by Captain Liu is really detailed, and even the number of soldiers and the places where they are placed are extremely detailed..." Fei Qian spread out the defense map of Qi County sent by Liu Li, pointing at it Some very specific signs on the website said, "Liu Xiaowei once said that it only took three days for him to be transferred from central Sichuan to Qi County..."

According to Liu Li, it was because Liu Bei was suspicious, and then he was going to let Liu Li act as the vanguard of the right battalion, as the death squad for the first wave of attack. In addition, some people in the right battalion were dissatisfied with Liu Bei, so Liu Li decided Taking the opportunity to instigate these gangsters to make trouble, he led his men to break out of the camp and fled to Guanghan.

In terms of overall logic, there seems to be no major problem, but Zhang Song’s map of entering Sichuan probably started to be prepared consciously not long after Liu Zhang came to power. No matter how long it takes to draw, at least it will take a long time to investigate and sort out , and Liu Li has only been in Qixian County for three to five days, and he can figure out the defenses in Qixian County, and he has painted it?

  Could it be said that Liu Li is really a rare spy wizard who is rare in a hundred years?

  Things that seem normal may not necessarily be without problems, but if there are some abnormal things, most of them have problems. Therefore, Fei Qian deliberately strengthened the strangling of Liu Bei's scouts, and also coincidentally discovered that the scouts sent by Liu Bei were not the relatively weak ordinary scouts from Sichuan and Shu, but Danyang veterans...

   This is somewhat interesting.

  Yesterday, under Ling Jie's right to strangle and ambush, Liu Bei probably lost nearly a hundred Danyang veterans, and what can these Danyang veterans do wrong? Do you have to sacrifice it in the scout battle?

  Are these Danyang soldiers more valuable in positional warfare, or in scout warfare?

Some people may think that different people have different opinions, but the problem is that Liu Bei still has Dongzhou soldiers, Sichuan and Shu troops, and recruited people, and Fei Qian does not believe that all these soldiers can be as loyal to Liu Bei. It's the same in the game, it's all worth it...

  The biggest difference between reality and the game is that not only generals have loyalty, but also soldiers. Fei Qian himself used various methods, including the honor system, preferential treatment, military merit awards, casualties and aftermath, etc., in order to generally guarantee the loyalty of his soldiers to the tricolor flag. Could it be possible to completely win over soldiers from all different factions?

   Fei Qian didn't believe it.

   It is just to scout the general location of Fei Qian, the approximate number of soldiers and other information. Do you need to use Danyang soldiers? not necessarily. The Danyang soldiers must be Liu Bei's most trusted and loyal army, and such an army is only used as a scout, not as a skeleton to manage and coordinate various factions? So from this point of view, there must be a reason for Liu Bei to use Danyang soldiers as scouts.

   And this reason...

   "There must be a mystery in this matter..."

  So, Fei Qian was going to try it out.

  ………………

   "There must be a mystery in this matter..." Kuai Qi also frowned and said, "There must be a trick to drive the people to Anhan from the west..."

   Kuai Qi was overwhelmed by Wei Yan's trick, and was at a loss. Although I have thought about it for a long time, Kuai Qi still doesn't quite understand what kind of medicine is sold in Wei Yan's gourd under Zhengxi's command...

  The expulsion of the population and the destruction of the surrounding villages, Kuai Qi believes that this is not a big deal.

  War? Naturally, everything is used to the extreme.

  Before the Spring and Autumn Period, why did wars appear to be polite, there were a lot of rules and etiquette, mainly because of the social production conditions and population constraints at that time, not because of any changes in people's character and conduct...

Imagine that before the Spring and Autumn Period, the principality was so big, and the people’s production capacity was so low. If the damage was too large, the land won would be meaningless if there were not enough people to cultivate it. In addition, most of the wars occurred during the Zhou Dynasty. In the conflicts between the subdivided noble families, when no one can persuade the other, just fight to see who's fist is hard and listen to whoever.

   Naturally, they are more disciplined.

   Then in the late Spring and Autumn Period, the Warring States Period was up. Although that grandson was not the first to use the yin leg, he was the first to sum up the thirty-six ways to use the yin leg...

  In addition, the population of China also increased a lot at that time, and it was enough to squander for a while. Therefore, tactics to win the war by hitting the opponent's productivity and weakening the opponent's strength emerged endlessly, and developed by leaps and bounds.

  In the late Warring States period, it became a norm to kill people at every turn. Just like Bai Qi who has been criticized for a long time, if Zhao Guo hadn't killed Zhao Guo's young and strong force, Zhao Guo would not have fallen directly from a quasi-first-rate to a third-rate vassal state all of a sudden.

  Therefore, it is not a problem for Wei Yan to use this method. The problem is that Zhengxi sent Wei Yan here to do such a thing, to harass Anhan and expel the people. Why?

Kuai Qi sent out some scouts, but soon the scouts were wounded, disabled, and dead. Apart from bringing Wei Yan and others approaching step by step, there was not much special information. Seriously disabled, and secondly, Kuai Qi also thought that Wei Yan was coming for Anhan, so he didn't continue to send scouts out, closed the city gates, and strictly checked the refugees to prevent Wei Yan's troops from mixing in and taking advantage of the chaos. city ​​or something.

  However, in Kuai Qi's mind, there is still a doubt.

   Is it just like what Wei Yan claimed, just to retaliate against these people for giving money and food to Liu Qi instead of Zheng Xi?

   Is it okay to be a fool?

  Who will believe such a nonsense reason?

   These fake villages located near Anhan, do they have to send money and food all the way, um, is it impossible to send them to Guanghan, where the Zhengxi troops are located?

   Obviously unreasonable.

  However, Wei Yan under Zhengxi's command swore to use this unreasonable reason as a cover. What was it for? Or is it to cover up something?

  If it is just to create refugees, Kuai Qi is not afraid.

  A large number of people arrived in Anhan. For Kuai Qi, there were some troubles, but not very big. Although it is said that after receiving the money and food from these people, they should bear certain protection responsibilities for each other, but the problem is that these people are originally from Badong, Sichuan and Shu, and they are not from Jingxiang. Care about the lives of these people?

In order to reduce the burden, Kuai Qi sent people to declare that the pain these people are facing now is completely caused by Zheng Xi, without mentioning the lack of protection on their own side, and directed all the hatred to Zheng Xi's side, and another side He began to make big claims about how difficult An Han was, how empty the food and grass was, how difficult it was for him to gather a little supplies, and then naturally reduced the supply of various items...

   In this way, these refugees outside the city will naturally suffer from nothing. They have no food, no clothes, no shelter, they are in great pain, and they hate Zhengxi very much.

   Kuai Qi thinks she handled it well. If Wei Yan is really sent to attack An Han in the west, it is impossible to say that these refugees can become some kind of death squads, and they will attack and consume Wei Yan's troops spontaneously. Wouldn't it be beautiful?

Behind the excruciating pain of the refugees, the sitting tigers in Anhan City are all smiling now. They don't know how much they thank Zhengxi Weiyan for doing this, otherwise they wouldn't have picked several sisters to spend. Some people even picked up a twin and prepared to train them for three or four years. Whether they keep them for themselves or give them away, they are all good. The rest get news, and those who are eager to see them will go to bed every day. In the name of disaster relief, take some small favors and go to the residential areas outside the city to buy people.

Young and strong men are wanted, and there is no shortage of beautiful ladies. As for those old and weak who are no one wants, when the stockpile reaches a certain amount, Kuai Qi will find an excuse to say that these people are making trouble, and there is no need to even find an excuse, just directly Claim that these people are Zhengxi spies or something, send soldiers to surround them, slaughter them all, and then blame Zhengxi, and then save a lot of money and food.

Under such a situation, even though Liu Qi Kuaiqi has arrived in Anhan and increased a lot of soldiers, but because the refugees outside the city have not reached the limit that the big families in Anhan can't bear, there are even many big families who feel that this It is a heaven-sent opportunity to make a fortune and a good opportunity to increase the population, so I am not very concerned about sending troops to encircle and suppress Wei Yan's troops in the west, and I don't support them much...

As for Liu Qi and Kuai Qi, they had seen the bravery of the soldiers who conquered the west before, and after suffering a big loss, they didn't have much courage to lead the army alone. On the one hand, they sent messengers to Chengdu in central Sichuan to urge Liu Bei to come to help. An Han, wait for Wei Yan to attack the city...

  Three days passed, five days passed, seven days passed...

Even the refugees outside the city are gradually thinning out. It is no longer like a few days ago when they came to Anhan densely. Now there are only a few sporadic ones, as if the surrounding villages have been wiped out by Wei Yan, or Wei Yan The offensive stopped.

  But no matter what it is, Wei Yan and others are still not seen in Anhan City.

Liu Qi and Kuai Qi made up their minds, and there was no way to wait like this, so they began to drive away the leftovers that had been raked over and over again. The guy used some of his spare heat to see where Zhengxi's troops were.

But when these Badong people who had been chewed so little juice went back, they suddenly found that Zhengxi's troops had disappeared. Even the villages that were thought to have been burned and destroyed still existed, and even the villages that had been breached before The door was also sealed and nailed up. When I opened it, most of the property in the village was intact...
