Lord of the People of Online Games

The three chief generals of the Central Plains Army, Wu Qi, Wei Wuji, and Cao Ren, came to see Chutian.

Cao Ren has a high fighting spirit, but Wu Qi and Wei Wuji have a calm expression. They don't seem to be so enthusiastic about drinking horses.

The Central Plains Army also has generals such as Pang Juan, Cao Hong, Xiahou Dun, and Li Dian.

The regiments that went south to attack Wancheng, Xinye, and Xiangfan came from the Central Plains Army and the Imperial Guard.

The Central Plains is a narrowly defined Central Plains, and the scope of its control includes a dozen prefectures in Yuzhou and Yanzhou.

Wu Qi spread out a map on the counter.

"To attack Wancheng, you must go through Fangcheng Xiadao. Guo Ziyi stationed 80,000 troops in Bowangpo, trying to contain the king."

"If Guo Ziyi is repelled and Wancheng is besieged, the defender of Wancheng will be Zhang Xun. After years of reinforcement, Wancheng will be easy to defend and difficult to attack. If it cannot be attacked quickly, it will bypass Wancheng, capture Xinye, and intercept Song to support Wancheng. Jun, Wu Jun."

Wu Qi drew an attack line on the topographic map.

Nanyang County is a big county with a large population of several million. It can recruit 200,000 soldiers, and Tang can be regarded as a big prince.

The Central Plains Army was 300,000, and the Imperial Guard was 600,000, so there were enough troops to implement Wu Qi's offensive plan.

If it is really impossible to defeat Wancheng, which Zhang Xun defended, he can besieged Wancheng with part of his troops, and the rest can bypass Wancheng and attack Xinye.

then……

"Upgrading Xinye to a large-scale city, opening the teleportation array, directly bypassing Wancheng to transport troops and grain and grass, and advancing towards Xiangfan. Wancheng becomes an isolated city. Once the grain and grass are exhausted, or if Fancheng is captured, Wancheng is bound to surrender."

Wu Qi's tactics are similar to the leapfrog tactics. For cities that can't be captured quickly, they can avoid them, attack other cities with strategic significance, and then turn around.

This is a feasible strategy.

but……

As the commander-in-chief of the Warring States Period, Wu Qi may not have a thorough understanding of the power of firearms.

Chutian has Hongyi cannons and an eighth-level firearms battalion. In one year, nearly 1,000 solid bullets have been accumulated.

The role of the red cannon is not just to frighten the cavalry, it is used for siege, the power of the red cannon is more terrifying than the catapult.

If Chu Tian is determined to attack a city, even if the opponent has a top defender and a solid city, Chu Tian can use 24 red cannons, plus more than hundreds of giant trebuchets and giant siege towers. Conquer millions of troops, attack the city day and night, and take it down.

It's just that Chutian depends on whether the price paid is directly proportional to the benefits obtained.

This time Chu Tian wanted to see if Zhang Xun, the famous defender of the city, was great, or his own Red Barbarians cannon was great.

"The Song king is hoarding heavy troops in Xiangyang and Fancheng. The Wu king has released the captive Han Shizhong and other generals, and Han Shizhong and others returned to Xiangyang. The troops stationed in Xinye are Cai Wei, Liu Pan and Huang Zhong, with a strength of approximately 70,000."

Xueyue, who is in charge of intelligence, appeared in the camp at this time and participated in the formulation of tactics.

Xueyue rarely appeared in front of everyone, but in fact she was also one of the important high-levels of Chutian forces, but she seldom showed her face because she usually walked at night in Jinyi.

"In order to deal with me, King Wu Tongja even tolerated King Song's secession of the southern county and released the captive generals. He is a powerful enemy."

Chu Tian seldom noticed Tongque as a player lord. His limelight was suppressed by Chu Tian, ​​Lao Qin, and Mingguan. However, carefully observing the experience of Tongque's rise, he is also an extraordinary character.

During the Yellow Turban Rebellion, Tongque tried every means to worship Sun Jian as a righteous brother, and as Lujiang prefect, led the army of Lujiang County to the east of the river, captured the land of Jiangdong, and calmed Baiyue.

Then attacked Song Wang Yang Shilang, occupied Jiangxia County, divided Jingzhou into two, annexed Jingnan, and forced Yang Shilang to become a courtier.

If it weren't for the pressure brought by Chutian too much, perhaps Tongque would not negotiate with Yang Shilang.

The peace talks with Yang Shilang were no less than the breaking of the arm of a strong man. Tongque failed to completely unify Jingzhou and Yangzhou, but it brought pressure to Chutian.

Tongque did not push Yang Shilang into the Chutian camp, so Yang Shilang always believed that there was still a chance to contend for the world.

After all, when Liu Bei had almost taken refuge in Sun Quan, he could rely on the Battle of Chibi to turn over the salty fish.

Yang Shilang still has the entire southern county, and the two big cities of Xiangyang and Jiangling are still in Yang Shilang's hands.

Tongque even returned half of Jiangxia County to Yang Shilang in order to win over Yang Shilang.

From this perspective, it is conceivable that the copper bird is not that simple.

Sun Jian's recent relationship with Chu Tian is also very bad.

Sun Jian believed that Chu Tian violated the original marriage agreement, and Chu Tian did not know how to deal with the agreement with Sun Jian.

This is where the disadvantages of political marriages lie. There will always be various unexpected contradictions.

"Ling, Cao Cao of the Hebei Army, prepare to go south. He may need to support Jianghuai."

When Chutian conquered Nanyang County, it was Jianghuai that was worried.

The military commander who had always attacked Hefei was Sun Jian. Now that Tongque ends the war with Jingzhou, it is very likely that Tongque will conquer Hefei himself, or even bypass Yue Fei's guarding Hefei and move to Guangling County. UU reading www.uukanshu. com

Yue Fei’s Jianghuai Army came from Jiujiang County, Guangling County, and Runan County. There were about 200,000 troops. Faced with the Jiangdong Army that came out of the nest, two fists were defeated by four hands. If Yue Fei was surrounded by Hefei City, Jiangdong Army May choose to avoid Yue Fei.

Therefore, Chu Tian ordered Cao Cao to prepare to go south to support.

"Then, arrange it like this."

Chu Tian generally agreed to Wu Qi's plan.

In this crusade against Nanyang County, there are four important cities to be captured, Wancheng, Xinye, Fancheng, and Xiangyang.

"Cao Ren, Cao Hong, and Xiahou Dun will be the pioneers tomorrow."

Chu Tian firmly eliminated the princes of Nanyang County, saying that after Tang, he officially sent 900,000 troops to the south.

At this moment, Chu Tian thought of the Emperor Fu Jian of the former Qin Dynasty.

In the Battle of Fei Shui, Fu Jian dispatched more than 800,000 troops to attack the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and was defeated by the 80,000 Beifu Army to defeat Fu Jian’s pioneering force of 200,000.

The 900,000 army also faces a problem, that is, there are few battlefields that can accommodate such a large force, and even the road will be trampled by the 900,000 army...

The enemy will not choose to fight the 900,000 army in the open plain terrain.

Therefore, the actual battlefield may be a collision between the vanguard forces.

"Tai Shici, you lead Qi Xue Jun, go to help."

Chu Tian dispatched the Yu Xuejun from the Imperial Guard's Iron Cavalry Corps to go south with Cao Ren and Cao Hong's Iron Wall Corps as the vanguard.

"Yes."

Tai Shi Ci turned on his horse, carrying a long bow.

Cao Ren and Cao Hong glanced at each other, and then both went on horseback.

Every military commander is eager to make merits, and this time to quell the battle of Jingzhou is their unique opportunity to make merits.

One-eyed Xiahou Dun followed them in the battle.

There are about 100,000 people in this army, and the force is already more than Guo Ziyi stationed in Bowangpo.
