Wu Ziyu ran from the fighting area to the Bianbo Camp, passed through the Shasan Battalion, and also went to the permanent camp, but in the eyes of the chief generals of these combat battalions, he was not considered a "leader". In military-related discussions, his only use is to deliver rations. In the eighth year of Xiande, Libei Mutual Market was raided by the Serpent Department. The fastest team to fight was the escort team led by Wu Ziyu. That was the only battle he fought.
"The main force of Bianbo Camp sent troops to the north, and you are the main general of Bianbo Camp. Now the forbidden army is going to investigate the news of Shasanying Camp. I hope to get assistance from Bianbo Camp." Xiao Chiye put down his bowl and said, "Bah. The Yingbu raid this time was obviously planned for a long time, blocking the horse road of the third camp of Sha, and the Bianbo camp lost its eyes, eyes and barriers. If you retreat at this time, you can indeed ensure that the materials are safe, but the first camp of Sha is the boundary The battle area will be completely surrounded by Biansha people. No matter how large the three Liuyang battalions of Zhaohui are, they must be divided into two lines, leaving the team to bypass the big border and go to the battle area in the northeast for a long distance. Support. Even if there is more than enough supplies, the troops on the front line have already been wiped out.”
The reason why Xiao Jiming chose to use Bianbo Camp as a supply ground is because it has a direct horse road between Shasanying and Northeast Liangma Road, which can quickly provide supplies and military support. Once there is no more, then Xiao Fangxu, who is still on the front line, will be cut off from the back-up. There is no straight horse road from the Northeast Liangma Road to the northeast. Zhaohui must take a detour, and it will take four days to go faster. In the past four days, Xiao Fangxu was the Serpent Department to the east, and the Eagle Department to the south. Without support and materials, the Biansha people's wheel battle was enough to drag down Xiao Fangxu's exhausted elite team.
Wu Ziyu's anger has been extinguished, he stood silently for a moment, and said, "The three Liuyang battalions in Zhaohui's hands are one of the elites of the Libei Iron Cavalry. The Eagles who raided here can't stop him, so he can give up. The far line in the northeast, from here to the battle area."
"Liuyang's three battalions, as the elites of Libei, have played against the Serpents the most times, and Amur will never know less about them than you and me. You also know that Zhaohui can forcibly break out of the encirclement and rush to the battle area from here, then Amur will never know less about them than you and me. It should have been thought of at the beginning of the raid. Today is such a good time for the raid, but he only sent the Eagle Department to come, guess what he was thinking?"
Wu Ziyu's expression gradually became ugly.
Among the thirty-six strategies, there is a strategy called Hard-to-Eat. Today, Wu Ziyu's team encountered a surprise attack at the Bianbo Camp. When Zhaohui received this batch of crucial supplies, it was too late, and long-distance support was the most inadvisable. He could only turn his attention back to the taken away Bianbo Camp. The number of people is adjusted accordingly. Once he comes, Amur most likely has removed the Eagle Department, and replaced the elite cavalry with Biansha here to wait in ambush, and Zhaohui will have to face Amur's full blow.
No matter whether he wins or loses, Zhaohui will be stumbled in Bianbo Camp, Xiao Fangxu in the battle area will be completely helpless, and Amur knows too much about the Northern Iron Cavalry.
"If Zhaohui can't come, we won't be able to win. The food and grass in the battle area is rapidly consumed. In a few days, the prince will still have to fight hard." Wu Ziyu took a few steps to the front of the shelf, tore off the map, and spread it out on the ground. The third battalion is close to the second battalion of Shah, when Amur will attack the north and hit the prince's back."
Tantai Hu was finishing cleaning, and came in barefoot with his robes on. Seeing them surrounding the map, he squatted aside to watch.
"What should we do?" Wu Ziyu raised his eyes and looked at Xiao Chiye, "We will lose if we advance, and we will lose if we retreat. Any action is within Amur's expectations."
Tantai Hu touched the scar on his face and said, "Isn't that true? He doesn't recognize the Imperial Army. We are a team he can't count." Mountain, that area is full of bandits. This time, the Eagle Department was able to avoid the eagle patrols from the Libei Iron Cavalry, and took heavy catapults to make a sneak attack in the south of Bianbo Camp. There must be bandits' help. I don't know a lot of tricks, but Same... Your son has something to say that makes sense."
Xiao Chiye raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "What did Lan Zhou say?"
"Smart people don't do superfluous things." Tantaihu's face became solemn. "Why did Amur go to great lengths to stop Zhaohui? If he fought smoothly with the prince in the battle, why should he divide his troops to come here?"
Xiao Chiye leaned over slightly, looked at the map, turned his wrench lightly, and said, "Yes, Amur's plan shows that he has fought hard in the battle area. It's already July, and if the war drags on After the autumn, there is no progress, and Amur is about to face the severe cold of winter. Biansha's grain reserves this year are all thrown into the battlefield, and the longer the war drags on, the more unfavorable it will be for Biansha."
Wu Ziyu remembered something.
Xiao Chiye just said: "After the eldest brother was injured, Amur changed his combat strategy in the past few years. When I was in Cizhou, I heard that the Biansha cavalry had already reached the Tuda Dragon Banner. Running, but not this time. Not only did they not run, they were advancing in full force. Amur had lost patience in the desert, and he was nibbling away at Libei, trying to occupy our pastures and camps. So from this aspect alone , Bianbo Camp is also very important. If you lose this place, you will take a big step back from the north. The third battalion of Shasha will collapse completely, and our so-called defense line in the east will completely collapse. But if you hold the Bianbo Camp, you can let the old man Dad recovers his spirits, and with him at the battlefield, Amur can't push this sideline."
Having said this, Xiao Chiye pointed to Wu Ziyu the location of the Boying Camp.
"As long as you endure until the first snow of the year, you will give Amur a heavy blow. Bianbo Camp must not be lost no matter what, and draw a north-south line from here, we can only pull forward, never back. "
Wu Ziyu said: "Since Amur wants to trap Zhaohui's Liuyang three camps here, how can we stop him with our current 25,000 people? The third camp is an important land, and if Amur sends him With the Serpent Department stationed, we have no chance to counterattack."
Xiao Chiye retracted his drooping arm, thought for a moment, and said, "The Biansha cavalry have become accustomed to the passive rhythm of the Libei Iron Cavalry, and Amur dares to make such a bet because he expects that the team in the Dingbianbo camp will not dare to attack the east without authorization. The raiding soldiers and horses were caught by surprise. According to the route, they will not be able to return to the Shasan Battalion until tomorrow morning. When we set off before dawn and reached the border of the Shasan Battalion, it was time for them to rest."
Wu Ziyu moved his squatting feet, looked at the map for a while without saying a word, and when his feet became numb, he said: "If the governor has made up his mind to go, the remaining war horses in the Bianbo camp can be used by the embargoed army. ."
"The forbidden army is not a cavalry, and it doesn't need war horses. Besides, the war horses in the north are too heavy, and they run with a lot of movement, so they are not suitable for raids." Xiao Chiye's eyes became smooth, and he looked at Tantai Tiger, Chenyang, and Gujin. Once again, he finally said to Wu Ziyu, "This time, let the Imperial Army say hello to Amur."
* * *
The next day before dawn, the Imperial Army went out.
Although Gujin was still injured, he still served as a scout. Tantai Hu followed Xiao Chiye, and only Chen Yang was left in Bianbo Camp. Wu Ziyu didn't understand, but seeing that Chenyang didn't complain, he didn't ask too much.
The dew had not yet dissipated, and the Imperial Army had already been soaked in the dew after walking among the grassy fields for a short while. They did not go from the horse path, but took the road when the Eagles retreated.
"It's not far from the border between China and Bo, Master, why didn't you arrange a post station?" Tantai Hu looked south and said, "Cross this pasture and run for a day and a night, it will be Luoshan."
"The defense of the Libei Iron Cavalry was set up against the Biansha Cavalry," Xiao Chiye looked sideways with his knife on his back, "The bandits in the past did not dare to go here, the time is different."
"Whoever takes refuge with the bald boy Biansha will be his grandson." Tantai Hu said with hatred, poking at the grass.
The marching speed of the forbidden army was not slow, and it was already afternoon when they reached the Sansha Camp.
Gujin was lying on the grass and didn't move for a while. Tantai Hu followed him, and after waiting for a while, he couldn't see anything, so he asked, "What can you see?"
Gu Jin stretched out his hand to poke the grass and said, "Wu Ziyu is right, there are cavalry from the Serpent Division in the third battalion of Shah, and the horse manure is fresh. They have arranged patrols around the camp, and they are more vigilant than the Bianbo battalion. ."
Gujin said and turned over, squinting at the sky.
"There is no whistle and no hunting falcons. Yesterday's sneak attack on the Bianbo Camp was a cover."
"This place is not easy to fight," Tantai Hu said. "The field of vision around the camp is wide, and it is full of grass and fields. If we get closer, there is no hiding place at all."
"This is the Shasan Camp," Gu Jin felt the tobacco in his arms, put it directly into his mouth and chewed, "Not only is there no hiding place, but there are iron quinoa on the periphery of the camp. ."
"How about going in through the ditch?" Tantai Hu said, turning his head and whispering to Xiao Chiye, "People always want to eat and drink."
Xiao Chiye didn't answer, Gujin looked a little embarrassed, he bowed his head and whispered in the grass nest: "In the past, there was indeed a channel open to the outside world. Later, when the master fought in the East Mountain Range, he didn't use this trick to dig out the edge of the sand. Human? The prince thought this was a loophole, so when he came back, he blocked the channels of the camps."
Tantaihu silently closed his mouth and fell down.
The location of the marching camp is very important, and the toilet is the most important thing. Generally, this kind of filthy ditch cannot be next to the tents for food and grass, and it is either deep or can be passed out. As a common camp, Shasanying is naturally more convenient for outside access. However, Xiao Chiye used a small number of cavalry to dig through the camp of the Biansha Department, and the Biansha Department was defeated from the inside at that time, which left a deep impression on Xiao Jiming. Changed it to deep and dealt with it on schedule. Who would have thought that such a change would become a problem that Xiao Chiye left for him after a few years.
How to fight now
Xiao Chiye looked at the sky and said, "Don't worry... There is a way."
