Qinglong Three Kingdoms

Chapter 555 I don't know if there is a good strategy?

The city of Wan County can accommodate about 8 to [-] people, so it can be regarded as a medium-sized city.

There are only two city gates in Wan County, the south and the north, but after Liu Xun rebuilt the city defenses, there are urns inside the two gates, and there are also moats connecting the Wanhe River outside the city walls.

However, there is no water gate in Wan County, and there is still some distance between the county seat and the Wanhe River, so it is impossible for Zhu Wei to enter the city by blowing open the water gate.

At the same time, the terrain around Wanxian County is relatively open, and the outside of the city is mainly reclaimed fields and river beaches. Then Liu Xun will set up his base camp in Wanxian County, mainly because there are a lot of fertile fields around Wanxian County, which can be reclaimed by him. Grow food to feed his army.

Originally, in order to enrich the military rations, Cao Cao sent Zhu Guang, the prefect of Lujiang, to station troops in the Wancheng area to cultivate land and grow rice.

However, Sun Quan of the Eastern Wu Dynasty led troops to attack Wancheng while the rice was about to be ripe. When Zhu Guang was caught off guard in order to harvest the rice, he led the elite soldiers with Lu Meng as the commander and Gan Ning as the siege vanguard, and launched a fierce attack from dawn. On that day, Lu Meng beat drums to cheer, Gan Ning took the lead, and then followed up the city with his elite. Finally, the city was broken one day, the prefect Zhu Guang was captured, and tens of thousands of Cao soldiers were captured.

Well, as far as history is concerned, Wan County seems to be easily breached by the army of the Eastern Wu, but in fact, the terrain around Wan County can also make it easy for the soldiers defending the city to detect incoming foreign enemies, so they want to attack the city of Wan County You can only attack hard.

Relatively speaking, because the north gate of Wan County is close to the Wan River, there is not much open space outside the city. There was not much room for Zhu Wei's army to form an attack.

At the same time, if Zhu Wei's army formed an array, it could only rely on the Wanhe River or arrange an array on the opposite bank of the Wanhe River.

Judging from the topography of Wan County, the best direction for Zhu Wei to attack the city is the south gate of Wan County. As there are no city gates on the east and west sides, unless it is to forcibly climb the wall, it does not have the meaning of attacking the city. .

However, in front of the south gate of Wanxian County, there is a battlefield composed of large fields, which is enough for Zhu Wei's army to set up a formation here, and then launch an attack on the city of Wanxian County.

In fact, the biggest problem now is Liu Xun's military strength. Even if Zhu Wei has so many people in ambushes, Liu Xun's [-] troops are not fake.

Now Liu Xun has sent [-] troops to station outside the south gate of Wanxian County, apparently with the intention of confronting Zhu Wei's army head-on outside the city.

With [-] Liu Xun troops outside the city, it would be difficult for Zhu Wei's army to outflank Wan County to the east and west sides and launch a siege to Wan County, which would definitely be blocked by Liu Xun's army.

Of course, since Liu Xun's army is outside the city, Zhu Wei can't talk about directly attacking the city now.

Only by defeating the soldiers and horses outside the city and being able to get close to the gates and walls of the city can a real attack on Wan County be launched, but the [-] Liu Xun troops placed outside the city of Wan County also rely on the city of Wan County to form a For the defensive formation, if you want to attack by force, I'm afraid it will take a lot of effort.

All of this hindered Zhu Wei's plan to quickly capture Wan County.

So Zhu Wei looked at Jia Xu, Lu Su, and Zhou Yu thinking about it for a while, but no one seemed ready to speak, so he had to call names first, "Gong Jin, I wonder if there is a good plan?"

Zhou Yu looked at the flag that Zhu Wei planted on the sand table to indicate the distribution of Liu Xun's troops, and pointed out where Zhu Wei was camping now, then turned his head to look at the map of Lujiang County and Wan County hanging on the side, shook his head and said, " Looking at it now, although there are mountains around this Wan County, there is no dangerous place to ambush. If you want to attack it, you have to attack it from the front! From Yu's point of view, although we have internal support in the city now, we still need us Fang Xianxian defeated Liu Xun's more than ten thousand troops outside the city, this is a tough battle, there is no other way!"

"My lord, please see that Liu Xun's garrison outside the city is mainly near the city, so this area should be the place where the two armies fought! There are not many streams and rivers here, and it is relatively flat land. The terrain on the side is higher, so our army should seize the ground on both sides, and when the frontal battle changes, we can use the terrain to attack the enemy!"

Zhou Yu obviously failed to find an opportunity to use tricks. The terrain around Wan County really doesn't have much room for manipulation, so there is no need to consider using tricks at all, and whether Liu Xun of Wan County will be tricked if he uses tricks. Just a hard hit.

In this way, Zhou Yu could only conduct some analysis on the empty land leading to the south gate of Wanxian County and the estimated future battlefield.

If Liu Xun's soldiers outside the city cannot be defeated, then even if there is an internal agent like Liu Ye in Wan County, it is meaningless. Even if Liu Ye opens the city gate, he will not be able to lure Zhu Wei's army into the city.

Besides, the troops Liu Ye can control in Wan County are actually only two or three thousand. Unless it is a surprise attack on Liu Xun's location, beheading tactics in Wan County City may also be effective. Otherwise, if there is chaos in the city, It is also easy to be wiped out by Liu Xun's army.

However, judging from the distribution of Liu Xun's army in Wan County that Zhu Wei saw now, there are still a large number of troops around Liu Xun's temple to protect him. The troops that Liu Ye can control seem to be mainly in the outer area of ​​the south of the city.

Perhaps Liu Ye's plan was also to find an opportunity to help Zhu Wei open the city gate, so that Zhu Wei's army could enter the city directly through the gate, so he could only put his troops on the south side of the city.

But the key issue now is that although Zhu Wei can see Liu Ye's situation in Wan County, Liu Ye cannot know the situation outside Zhu Wei's side.

After all, now Wan County has been completely blocked by Liu Xun's army, so it is difficult for Zhu Wei to contact Liu Ye, and he can only rely on his own judgment to do things.

Therefore, judging from the current situation, Zhou Yu's analysis is still correct. Zhu Wei must first defeat Liu Xun's troops outside the city, thus posing a certain threat to Wan County, before Liu Ye's ambush inside the city can be effective.

When Zhou Yu was narrating, Jia Xu and Lu Su couldn't help looking at Zhou Yu's instructions on the map and sand table, and then Zhou Yu made some specific tactical arrangements for Zhu Wei's existing army.

The main thing is how Pang Yan's Xiongba battalion and Zhu Wei's middle army battalion can set up a formation on the frontal battlefield, and then start a battle with Liu Xun's [-] troops left outside the city. How can they completely defeat Liu Xun's [-] troops? The army, and then smashed the barracks of Liu Xun's army outside the south gate of Wan County.

This kind of army fights head-on head-on, and there is no room for falsehood. Anyway, it depends on the combat effectiveness of the two armies, the general's ability to charge and trap, and then the reserve army that seizes the right time to attack...
