Chapter 1847: Strategy of Youzhou (Part 2)

 “My lord, please take a look.”

Zhuge Liang walked to a large map several meters long, pointed at the Youzhou area with the feather fan in his hand, and said: "After Jizhou is completely in the hands of our army, the Bohai Sea, Hejian, Zhongshan, and Changshan are all bordering the Northern Han Dynasty. Together with General Huo Bing's troops in Daijun, our army has formed a semi-encirclement of the Northern Han Dynasty.

No matter how we fight the Battle of Youzhou, our army has an absolute advantage, but if we want to defeat the Northern Han Dynasty before winter, we must fight quickly. "

“What’s a quick way to fight?” Qin Hao asked.

"The Northern Han Dynasty has an army worthy of a battle. It only has a main force of 100,000, and the only generals that can be fought are Wei Qing and Xue Gang. Therefore, our army can be divided into five groups and attack Daijun, Shanggu, Zhuojun, Guangyang, and Yu at the same time. Yangwu County.

The troops of the Northern Han Dynasty simply cannot defend the entire territory. Facing the five-pronged army of our army, no matter how the Northern Han Dynasty arranges it, they can only defend one or two routes at most. As long as one of the other three routes wins, they can force the other two routes. The Han army had to retreat.

 If you take one step back, you will retreat step by step.

With the Northern Han Dynasty unable to care about each other, they could only abandon most of their territory and return to defend Yanjing City. However, the food and grass in Yanjing City could not last long.

 At that time, our army only needs to besiege the city for one month. After Yanjing's food supplies are exhausted, someone will open the city and beg for surrender. "

                            …

As soon as Zhuge Liang said this, all the generals took a breath of cold air.

As generals, they have put forward many good strategies, but compared with those of military advisers, the gap is too obvious.

  Few of them thought of dividing their forces, but concentrated their forces to fight the Northern Han Dynasty in a big battle. No matter they won or lost, the final casualties would definitely be high.

In contrast, the Military Advisor proposed a five-pronged strategy. Although the troops were dispersed, they were actually stronger strategically. They could defeat the enemy without fighting!

 Can't compare, can't compare.

Qin Hao looked at the map with burning eyes, nodding secretly in his heart, and said to himself: As expected, the three great military advisers discussed together for a whole night, uh, half an hour, and the plan they came up with is awesome!

"Divide the troops into five groups? If we use this method, Liu Che will not be able to care about each other, and our army will be in an invincible position." Qin Hao said with a smile.

Seeing the generals below looking at him with burning eyes, Qin Hao coughed slightly and looked at Bai Qi, asking: "Bai Qi, you are the Governor of Hebei. What do you want to do with the candidate for the chief general of the five armies?" arrange?"

Hearing this, Bai Qi immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Although he was the general of the 420,000 Qin army, his lord Qin Hao was in Yecheng, which also allowed him to slide from the first to the second in command.

Qin Hao could have completely bypassed Bai Qi and issued orders directly to the generals, but he still let Bai Qi give orders, which moved Bai Qi deeply.

Bai Qi knew that his chance to take charge of the army was running out. In the future, he was afraid that he would have to hand over his military power and become an official in the court. Therefore, he had to lead the army to fight while he could still and finish the battle of Youzhou beautifully.

 “I would like to inform my lord, this time the five-pronged army attacks Youzhou, I think the troops should be distributed in this way.”

After Bai Qi moistened his throat, he said in a deep voice: "To deal with the 200,000-strong army of the Northern Han Dynasty, we can divide it into four groups to attack Youzhou, and to guard against the 160,000-strong army of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, it is the fifth group.

After the war started, he led an army of 200,000 troops and divided the troops into four groups to attack Daijun, Shanggu, Zhuojun and Guangyang respectively.

This fifth army was responsible for attacking the southern part of Yuyang County first, and then attacking Youbeiping Army eastward, in order to cut off the connection between the Northern Han Dynasty and the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and at the same time prevent the Qing army from intervening in the Youzhou battle. "

"This is good."

Qin Hao nodded in agreement. Under Bai Qi's arrangement, all the hidden dangers of Kong Ming's five-way army plan were eliminated. “As for the candidate for the commander-in-chief of the Five Route Army?”

After Bai Qi pondered for a while, he said decisively: "Huo Bing, Su Lie, Xue Li, plus Qi personally leading an army, there are four routes. As for the fifth route..."

Bai Qi glanced at the eager generals. Just when he was about to speak, Qin Hao suddenly said: "As for the fifth route, let me personally lead it."

"this…"

Bai Qi was stunned for a moment, and the generals were also dumbfounded. They were all staring at this position. Others could still fight for it, but if the lord personally led the army, how could they fight for it?

 “How can my lord be in danger?”

Bai Qi quickly objected, and then Zhang Liang and Liu Bowen also stood up to object. Although Qin Hao's ability to command troops was not weak, they were not willing to let Qin Hao go to the battlefield for no reason.

"This matter does not need further discussion, it is settled."

Qin Hao made the decision directly, and then a trace of fighting spirit flashed in his eyes and said: "I have long wanted to meet Nurhaci. I heard that he and Temujin are listed as the 'Two Heroes of the Grassland'. Temujin has already died in the battle. If Nurhaci If he doesn’t give up his delusion, I don’t mind letting him end up like Temujin.”

This attack on Youzhou cannot take away all the 360,000 troops without leaving a single soldier in Jizhou, so Qin Hao thought for a while and then ordered: "Where are Gao Shun, Yu Jin, and Wei Rui?"

 “The end will be here.”

Gao Shun and Yu Jin stepped forward directly, while Wei Rui, who had just surrendered, was a little slow, and after reacting, he quickly knelt down.

 “This king orders the three of you to each lead an army of 10,000 people. Gao Shun will be stationed at Yecheng, Yu Jin will be stationed at Bohai, and Wei Rui will be stationed at Hejian.” Qin Hao ordered.

                                                      )

Gao Shunyujin immediately agreed with clasped fists, while Wei Rui looked surprised.

He is a surrendered general, and he has just surrendered. Does the Lord just give him a surrendered general to guard the rear area?

Seeing Wei Rui's delay in accepting the order, Qin Hao immediately asked: "What, General Wei Rui, do you have any objection to my order?"

“The general doesn’t dare. It’s just that the general is not qualified enough and his talents are shallow. He is afraid of betraying the trust of the lord, so he asked the lord to choose another talented person.” Wei Rui gritted his teeth and said.

Qin Hao smiled and said: "General Wei Rui, I know your talents well, and you don't need to think too much. Since I use you, I will definitely use you without any doubts."

Qin Hao has already talked about this. If Wei Rui doesn't agree, it would be disrespectful.

“Thank you for your trust, my lord. Even if Wei Rui is shattered into pieces, he will definitely live up to your lord’s kindness.” Wei Rui said with a moved face.

Qin Hao nodded with a smile. After destroying both Korea and Zhao, almost all the surrendered generals surrendered except Shajuanlian who preferred death to surrender. Among these surrendered generals, the one who surprised Qin Hao the most was Zhang He. And Wei Rui, the second general.

Under the training of Han Xin, Zhang He has reached 96 points in command, and he is already a general who can stand alone.

As for Wei Rui, a famous general in the Southern and Northern Dynasties, although he failed to improve any attributes under Yuan Shao's command, his basic five-dimensional skills were still no worse than Zhang He's.

 Wei Rui: Commander 96, Force 62, Intelligence 93, Politics 86, Charisma 94;

After seeing this five-dimensional figure, Qin Hao couldn't help but sigh in his heart: He is indeed the prototype of Yanhou in "Nirvana in Fire", Wei Rui, the fierce tiger of the Liang Dynasty.
