Chapter 245 Taking advantage of the opportunity

Yang Zhengshan and Wang Bin just chatted briefly and went to wash up first.

The two met again the next morning.

"The Marquis asked us about our next move and said that if we don't go westward, we will go directly to Fushan City to join him! What do you think?"

In the camp, Wang Bin talked about the letter sent by Liang Chu.

Yang Zhengshan fell into deep thought.

Although judging from the current battle situation, Chongshan Town seems to have a lot of advantages, the key to this battle lies in Fushan City.

As long as Fushan City is not destroyed, the Daling Dynasty can still survive.

Moreover, the Daling Dynasty did not have no chance of making a comeback. There were four of the seven major clans around Luofushan City, and these four clans had a hundred thousand Huqi.

If they fight head-on, even if five generals gather under Fushan City, it will still be a brutal battle, and the winner is still unknown.

Of course, even if Da Rong loses the final battle, the Hu tribe in the East China Sea will never be the same again.

Da Rong has a strong foundation, and the loss of hundreds of thousands of troops will not hurt their vitality. However, the East China Sea Hu tribe has now lost two large tribes and nearly a hundred small and medium-sized tribes, which has already left them injured.

It is impossible to recover without more than ten or twenty years.

"We are not going west, but we are not in a hurry to join the Marquis!" Yang Zhengshan thought for a moment and said.

"Then what should we do next?" Wang Bin asked doubtfully.

Yang Zhengshan raised his head and looked at the map next to him, with the corner of his mouth slightly raised, "Take advantage of the situation!"

Wang Bin also looked at the map, but still didn't understand.

He knew that taking advantage of the situation was one of the thirty-six strategies, and he was familiar with the thirty-six strategies.

Just reading it well does not mean understanding, understanding does not mean knowing how to use it, and knowing how to use it does not mean being able to win with it.

Yang Zhengshan continued: "The enemy can do great harm, so we should take advantage of the situation."

"Now that the Marquis is approaching Fushan City, the enemy is doing great harm. One hundred thousand horsemen around Fushan City cannot be mobilized at will. This is

We take advantage of the opportunity. "

"We have joined the Marquis, and we can only huddle in the camp for a short period of time, unable to fight."

"But what if we go north!"

As he spoke, Yang Zhengshan pointed to the area to the north of Fushan City.

There are four large tribes surrounding Fushan City, and it is naturally impossible for them all to live in Fushan City or near Fushan City.

The Donghai Hu people do not have a huge territory, nor are they good at farming. They cannot support a huge city, so there are only tens of thousands of residents in Fushan City, which is not as good as a prefectural city in Da Rong.

So the question is, where are the people of these four large tribes?

That's right, just north of Fushan City.

That area is the area with the highest density of Hu people in the East China Sea.

At this time, the royal court of Fushan City must have put most of its troops on Fushan City, which left the northern area defense empty.

"Take advantage of the situation, wipe out everything, and cut off Fushan City's logistical supplies. When the time comes, Fushan City will be defeated without attacking!" Yang Zhengshan said.

There are a large number of settlements in the north of Fushan City, and these settlements need to provide Fushan City with various supplies. Once they wipe out these settlements, it will not take long for Fushan City to fall into a state of food shortage.

Without logistical supplies, how long can a hundred thousand troops and tens of thousands of tribesmen persist inside and outside Fushan City?

Once Fushan City becomes an isolated city, Fushan City will collapse without attack.

An army of 100,000 is not that easy to feed!

After listening to Yang Zhengshan's explanation, Wang Bin's eyes immediately became extremely bright.

"Wonderful, Brother Yang, your idea is really wonderful!"

If it is true as Yang Zhengshan said, then they can really completely destroy the Hu tribe in the East China Sea.

Yang Zhengshan then said: "But if we want to pacify the northern part of the mountain city, we alone are not enough!"

That area is the most densely populated area of ​​the Hu people in the East China Sea. There are about four to five million Hu people living there, accounting for almost one-third of the entire population of the Hu people in the East China Sea.

With such a large population, even if Fushan City has mobilized 100,000 Huqi, there are still as many as 100,000 strong men left.

And wherever it is close to Fushan City, Fushan City can also send troops to rescue.

It doesn't take too much, 20,000 Huqi are enough to make them use the rat weapon.

And Fushan City lacked 20,000 cavalry. Even if Liang Chu took the initiative to attack, the opponent could still defend the city and switch offense and defense.

To use their mere 4,000 troops to deal with hundreds of thousands of Hu tribesmen and 20,000 Hu cavalry is not to take advantage of the situation, but to fall into a trap.

So they need more troops.

"What do you mean?" Wang Bin asked.

Yang Zhengshan raised the corners of his mouth slightly and said, "Please come over, General Zhou!"

Wang Bin's expression moved slightly, and then he fell into deep thought.

Invite Zhou Lan to come over?

He also received the news that Zhou Lan had defeated the Qi Jia clan.

When Zhou Lan comes, will he become a guest?

No, there is no distinction between host and guest here. If we really talk about it, they are all bad guests.

"This matter requires the consent of the Marquis!" Wang Bin said.

Yang Zhengshan nodded, "That's natural!"

This already involves a strategic adjustment, changing the strategy originally formulated by Liang Chu, and naturally requires Liang Chu's consent.

Moreover, they may have the cooperation of Liang and Chu. Without the cooperation of Liang and Chu to contain Fushan City, their plan would be a mirror image and only exist in fantasy.

With Yang Zhengshan's consent, Wang Bin immediately wrote a letter and sent someone to the main camp of Zhenbiao Camp.

When Liang Chu saw Yang Zhengshan's plan, he first thought about it for a long time, and then summoned his staff to discuss it for a long time.

This strategy is risky, but it is a good one.

The battlefield situation changes rapidly, and any strategy has an element of risk. They can't deny a feasible plan just because of the risk.

"My Lord, I think this plan is feasible. If Fushan City sends troops to support, we can take the opportunity to capture Fushan City. If Fushan City does not support, then without the logistical support of the North, Fushan City will fall without a fight!" Lu Zhong said.

Liang Chu frowned and said, "But once Fushan City sends troops to support, the soldiers in the North will be in danger!"

"Don't you believe in the two generals and Lord Yang?" Lu Zhong persuaded.

Liang Chu pondered for a while and said, "Can the soldiers from other routes act together?"

He was thinking about whether to transfer all six lieutenant generals, so that Wang Bin and Zhou Lan would be much less dangerous.

Lu Zhong shook his head and said, "If that's the case, it's not a surprise attack, but a decisive battle!"

Using two armies, they can still raid into the north of Fushan City, but if six armies gather together, it is likely that Fushan City will know the news in advance.

At that time, Fushan City will probably push all the troops outside the city to fight a decisive battle.

"And if the Marquis is not here, the six lieutenant generals may not be able to work together!" Lu Zhong gave another reason.

Six lieutenant generals are fine, but the key is that there is also a deputy general among them.

When they gather together, who should they listen to?

Listen to Ji Feiyu?

But the plan was made by Wang Bin and Yang Zhengshan. Will Ji Feiyu act according to Wang Bin and Yang Zhengshan's ideas?

Listen to Wang Bin and Yang Zhengshan?

This is even more impossible. A higher official can crush others. Wang Bin's official position is not as high as Ji Feiyu's, and his prestige cannot suppress other lieutenants.

Liang Chu nodded in agreement, "You are right, we cannot let other people get involved in this matter."

He pondered for a while, "Then let's act according to their proposal. You immediately send a message to Zhou Lan and let her lead the army to join Wang Bin."

It was decided, Liang Chu did not delay any longer, and sent two teams to send messages to Zhou Lan and Wang Bin respectively on the same day.

…

In the northern Harahun Mountain area, Zhou Lan's reinforcement battalion had just wiped out a medium-sized tribe. The battlefield was full of blood and broken limbs were scattered. Soldiers with blood on their faces were collecting supplies on the battlefield.

"Hu San, take those dried meats out and let Doctor Zhang see if they are poisonous!"

"Lu Da, go tell Lord Zhao Yuan that we have a lot of sheep here, ask him to transfer a group of civilians to drive all the sheep away!"

"Li Laosi, what are you doing? Don't damage those felt tents, we can still use them!"

On the battlefield, Yang Mingzhi commanded the soldiers to clean up the battlefield.

Now he is still the governor of Jianning Guard, but after going to war with the army, he has been following Zhou Lan as an assistant, and he is also one of Zhou Lan's personal guards.

Just then, a group of people came from a distance.

"Mingzhi, Mingzhi!"

The voice came before the person arrived.

Yang Mingzhi looked in the direction of the voice and saw Zhao Yuan leading more than ten soldiers, and Yang Chengxu followed Zhao Yuan.

"Lord Zhao, you came at the right time. I have a lot of sheep here. You quickly ask the civilians to drive them away!"

Seeing Zhao Yuan, Yang Mingzhi said impatiently.

Well, he was really impatient.

Zhou Lan's character was originally vigorous and resolute. She was no slower than Yang Zhengshan in clearing out the Hu tribe.

But the problem is that Yang Zhengshan has Wang Bin and Wang Sheng to clean up the mess, while Zhou Lan can only let Zhao Yuan and Yang Mingzhi clean up the mess.

Zhao Yuan was fine, as he was responsible for logistics and transporting spoils of war, but Yang Mingzhi not only had to help clean up the battlefield, but also had to fight with the army. After each battle, he would be particularly busy.

Seeing him like this, Zhao Yuan smiled and said, "Okay, leave this to me. The general wants to see you for something, so you should hurry over!"

Yang Mingzhi was startled, "The general wants to see me? What's the matter?"

"I'm not sure, it seems to be a military order!" Zhao Yuan said.

"Oh, then I'll go first!" Yang Mingzhi did not dare to hesitate, and hurriedly walked out of the battlefield.

After he left, Zhao Yuan looked at the sheepfold not far away, and said to Yang Chengxu beside him, "Go find some civilians and drive the sheep away first!"

"Okay!" Yang Chengxu responded and ran away.

He did not go to find civilians, but caught up with Yang Mingzhi.

"Uncle Mingzhi!"

"Yeah!" Yang Mingzhi slowed down.

Yang Chengxu ran to him and whispered, "I heard that Grandpa Zhengshan has destroyed several tribes in a row. They have wiped out all the tribes east of Heiyun Mountain!"

In the army, it is extremely inconvenient for them to receive news. That is, someone can only bring back some news after returning to Jianningwei.

Yang Mingzhi smiled, "I told you a long time ago, don't worry about him!"

Although he said so much, in fact, the one who cares about Yang Zhengshan the most here is him.

There is no way, who makes him his own son.

"Hehe, I'm not worried about Grandpa Zhengshan, I just think Grandpa Zhengshan is very powerful!" Yang Chengxu grinned, revealing two deep dimples.

There is worry, but more of it is honor.

Now Yang Zhengshan's name as a killer has spread throughout Chongshan Town, and even they have heard a lot about it.

They are all very excited about this, and they can't wait to gallop around Yang Zhengshan.

In contrast, the nicknames of the Five Tigers of the Yang Clan were only spread among Zhou Lan's reinforcements and Jianning Guards. The difference was huge.

Yang Mingzhi laughed, "Okay, get busy."

Yang Chengxu didn't say anything more, just responded and left quickly, while Yang Mingzhi walked towards Zhou Lan's position.
