Hegemony of all Dynasties: Get the Zhao Yun template at the beginning

Chapter 473
After Wang Jing set up camp, he did not launch an attack immediately. Instead, he asked his soldiers to dig trenches and build earthen walls to enclose the city.

Although Wang Jing wanted a quick battle, he would not be too impatient. Once he was too eager, he would show his flaws.

He was waiting for news from the Northern Route Army led by Fu Youde.

With Fu Youde's ability, it is not difficult to capture Suzhou and cut off the west channel of the Western Chu army.

At that time, Fu Youde sent troops from Suzhou to the east and threatened Lingbi from the west. In this way, the two armies of the Huai Army would be like a pair of big pliers, pinching Lingbi fiercely from left to right.

From ancient times to the present, dealing with pincer attacks has been a huge problem.

In the thousands of years of history in the world, only Zhuge Liang's battle of Lucheng when he came out of Qishan easily broke Sima Yi's pincer attack, and also collapsed the opponent's army. army against...

Fan Zeng is a top strategist, but he is not Xiang Yu after all. Facing Wang Jing's strategy of being upright and strange, and attacking from both sides, he can only learn from Xiang Yu at the beginning, go out of the city directly, and fight against the Huai army before Fu Youde arrives. main battle.

but.

Although a large-scale siege is not planned, it is still possible to send some troops to conduct a tentative attack. This tentative attack can also be regarded as a kind of persecution.

On May [-], the weather in Lingbi was excellent, with white clouds in the sky and occasional strong winds.

on earth.

The billowing army came out of the camp and began to approach Lingbi City. The sun gradually lowered. In the army formation, flags and flags were erected, and the dragon flag representing King Huai was driven forward.

Many generals of the South Route Army, as well as Chen Gong and the three who came to help, were all in the formation.

The mighty soldiers of the Huai Army were densely packed in red armor.

As the saying goes, once there are more than 1 people, there is no limit. Even if there are only 20 people, it looks like a sea of ​​people. However, there are [-] soldiers and horses in the Huai army, and the military formations are connected with each other.

Every military formation has a general sitting in charge.The breath of the general and the soldiers and horses under his command are connected, and the evil spirit soars to the sky.Under the blessing of the army formation, the power became more and more tyrannical.

The other 20 troops rested in the camp and prepared to leave the camp in turn.

Murong Shaozong stood on the command vehicle, holding a command flag in his hand, his eyes swept over the elite soldiers in front, and saw that each of these soldiers had a vigorous breath, and their eyes were dimly lit, like tigers and wolves.

I couldn't help feeling a surge of joy in my heart. As the commander of this large army, when I thought that this huge elite was going to take over my command, I would feel a different kind of arrogance.

"With a large army in hand, attack cities and loot land, defeat powerful enemies, and repay your favor! Such a way will live up to the ambition of a man!"

Murong Shaozong's eyes covered the 20 army, and he felt that the 20 elite phalanx was arranged in a perfect way. Any order he gave, this army could respond quickly.

This kind of appearance of responding to commands and obeying orders, in the eyes of most famous generals, is a real elite and strong army.

……

On the top of the city, Fan Zeng stood in front of the city gate in a long robe with wide sleeves, and together with Xiang Zhuang, Long Qie and others, looked at the Huai army formation ahead.

Although they have known for a long time, the fact that the Huai Army has almost no defeats in the South and North Wars.

But listening to it, how can there be the shock of seeing it with your own eyes?
"Father Ya, the Huai army must be waiting for news from Fu Youde to besiege the city with a large army. If Fu Youde's 20 troops capture Suzhou, then our retreat will be cut off..."

Looking at the mighty army ahead, Xiang Zhuang said in a deep voice.

When Fan Zeng, Long Qie and others heard this, they couldn't help turning their heads to look at Xiang Zhuang.

In the Western Chu Army, although Xiang Zhuang was the master in name,
But with Fan Zeng's prestige and Long Qi's ability, the two of them have already mastered a lot of power in the Western Chu Army.

Moreover, Fan Zeng and Long Qie subconsciously regarded Xiang Zhuang as a junior. After all, Xiang Zhuang's qualifications were too poor. When he first came out, Fan Zeng and Long Qie had already been the core figures of the Western Chu Army.

If it weren't for the relationship between Xiang Zhuang and Xiang Yu, the Western Chu Army would not have focused on Xiang Zhuang.

"Zhuanger, what do you want to say?"

Fan Zeng asked with his white eyebrows trembling slightly.

Xiang Zhuang said in a deep voice: "I want to say that we have no other way now. Yuan Ying has been held back by Cao Jingzong and cannot go north, and Fu Youde is going to attack Suzhou to cut off our retreat!"

"If Suzhou is breached, I believe both Yafu and General Longqie understand the consequences! Right now we have only one choice, and that is, as Yafu said before, to directly dispatch the army to defeat the main force of the Huai army!"

Fan Zeng's eyes moved slightly, and he said, "What do you mean, instead of entangled with the Huai army to wear down the opponent's spirit, instead directly send troops to a decisive battle?"

According to his previous plan.

If the Huai army approached the city, they would rely on the defense of the city wall to defeat the enemy. After the Huai army's strength was reduced, the Western Chu army would go out to attack the city. This would increase the chances of winning.

"That's right, we can't wait until Fu Youde wins Suzhou, the longer it takes, the worse it will be for us!"

"And the morale of our army will also weaken over time..."

"Instead of being slowly worn down by the opponent, it's better to go out of the city directly and have a showdown!"

Xiang Zhuang said firmly.After seeing the Huai army's elite army with his own eyes, not only was he not intimidated, but a trace of ferocity appeared on the contrary.

Long Qie on the side suddenly showed joy and admiration, and said with a smile: "Yafu, I think what the young general said is right! Isn't it just a decisive battle out of the city? The Huai army is powerful, but we are not weak!"

"Bawang's [-] iron cavalry are in hand, directly launch the battle formation, go straight to the main formation of the Huai army, and capture and kill Wang Jing!"

"When we were in Julu, we used this method to defeat hundreds of thousands of Qin's army and Wang Li's army in one go! Now we also have nearly 40 troops..."

"With the same strength, are you afraid that you won't be able to defeat the Huai Army's Central Army?"

Long Qie's voice was a little hoarse, like a metal trill, thick and loud.

"That's right! Overlord's tens of thousands of troops defeated the 40 Qin army, and thirty thousand cavalry defeated Liu Bang's 56 army. Now we have the same strength as Wang Jing, and we still have the Overlord's iron cavalry. Why don't we just go out and kill Wang Jing as the young general said? One caught off guard!"

Zhong Limei also shouted.

Fan Zeng pondered slightly, in fact, what Xiang Zhuang said was not unreasonable.

On the contrary, it was his strategy of fortifying the wall and clearing the field to delay time, which made the Western Chu army lose the opportunity.

Of course, you can't blame him.

The Huai army advanced step by step, with upright tactics, even if Zhang Liang came, there was nothing he could do.

He's just a little conservative.

He suddenly looked towards the Huai army outside the city, and a gleam of light suddenly appeared in his cloudy eyes, as if piercing through the fog.

"The Huai army outside the city is indeed the same as before with 40!"

"The difference in strength between the enemy and ours is not far, Zhuang'er's method is indeed feasible!"

Fan Zeng's thoughts turned.

He looked at the crowd and saw that Xiang Zhuang and Long Qi had bright and determined eyes, waiting for him to make a decision.

Fan Zeng suddenly laughed.

"Sure enough, it's because I'm getting old. Why don't you guys be decisive and straightforward, okay! Just follow what Zhuang Er said, and leave a few people to defend the city wall first, and the others will follow me to dispatch troops and horses, and wait until tomorrow morning to leave the city!"

"decisive battle!"
