Weird Three Kingdoms

Chapter 994

"Amazing! This is a wonderful battle!"

In the martial arts lecture hall in Pingyang City, Fei Qian took the information he had just obtained and praised, then handed the battle report to Xun Chen beside him, "Come on, you all have a look too."

In addition to Zhang Liao, Huang Cheng, Xun Chen and Zaozhi, there were several other people participating in the lecture hall.Gong Jun and Wei Du belonged to the middle and low-level officers, and they belonged to the type of listening in and gaining experience.

Xun Zhi, whose style name is Taisu, belongs to the new recruits. The descendants of the Xun family who defected here are now serving as secretary under Xun Chen.

There is another person, named Zhang Yun, whose name is Yiyang, who also found Pingyang during this period of time. He has learned quite a lot, and he can also use the art of Qi and Huang. Now he is also the post of Pingyang Shuzuo.

In comparison, Fei Qian's intelligence work is slightly better than that of other princes. After all, it is normal for caravans to come and go with some private goods.

Normally speaking, Cao Cao's territory is, um, not very good.

Just like Go, with golden corners and silver edges, grass belly.To the north is Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan vying for corners, while to the east there are Qingzhou and Xuzhou, to the south is Yuan Shu's territory, and to the west is the dilapidated Henan Yin. Cao Cao's current Yanzhou is in the middle belly of this big chessboard.

The real place of the Fourth World War, the result was abruptly revitalized by Cao Cao in history.

Cao Cao and Yuan Shu, two chess players, faced each other for the first time on this big chessboard.In this battle, Yuan Shu could lose, but Cao Cao couldn't afford to lose. If Yuan Shu lost, it would be a big deal to retreat, but Cao Cao had no way to retreat. Once defeated, he would be torn apart immediately, and Cao Cao was at a disadvantage. won.

"Get the map!" Fei Qian said to Huang Xu beside him.

The improvement of the map is something that has been gradually improved since Fei Qian came to Bingzhou.
It is said that Tuyu came from Xia Yu at the earliest time.

Legend has it that when Xia Yu cast the Huaxia Jiuding, he cast images on the Jiuding to represent strange things in various directions, or to represent mountains and rivers, or to represent fish and beasts, which is considered to be the prototype of the Huaxia map.

Later, maps were widely developed during the Zhou Dynasty, not only in military affairs, but also in production and land management.During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, especially because of the frequent wars, maps and maps had become an indispensable tool, and large-scale water conservancy projects and civil engineering at that time promoted the development of the entire map, and even in the Zhoubi Suanjing, the map was already developed. There are some references and conventions for materials and size ratios.

Of course, Tuyu more often represents a kind of power, a kind of control over land and a declaration of sovereignty, just like the key in later generations. Although there are fingerprints or other unlocking modes, many people still like it. Use the most primitive way to unlock...

The maps of the Han Dynasty already know how to use unified graphics to represent related things, such as using horizontal mountain-shaped lines to represent mountains, adding halo lines to represent the range and direction of mountains, and using fish-scale lines to represent steep cliff terrain. , Not only that, thick lines are used to represent the upstream of the river, and thin lines are used to outline the distribution of water areas in the downstream.

As for residential areas such as rural counties, etc., they are all written in circles and names. If there is a square frame, it means that there is a garrison. If it is a separate square or triangle, it means that there is a field garrison. Fortress or fortress.

Open official roads use solid lines, while trails and mountain roads use dashed lines.

It can be said that the only problem with the maps of the Han Dynasty is that there is no fixed scale...

As for the accuracy of the map, it can only be said that it is limited to the lack of manual depiction and measurement methods in the Han Dynasty, so it cannot be said to be a big defect.

Of course, this is a very professional map, which is usually only available in the central court. Even the craft of drawing maps is passed down from generation to generation, and it is kept secret. As for the maps of ordinary counties or low-level villages, that is Different people have different opinions, and there are both freehand brushwork and freehand brushwork.

Fei Qian benefited from Cai Yong's collection of books, and before Luoyang was burned, he also got some documents and albums of Yuntai from Li Ru, so he basically constructed a relatively accurate one. map library.Among these maps, there are not only those of the Central Plains of China, but also some maps of the Western Regions or Mobei. However, the authenticity and effectiveness of these maps on the edge of the territory and even outside it still needs to be verified.

The map of Chen Liu's vicinity was quickly taken out and spread out on the large rectangular table.

People who look at a map for the first time will always feel dazzled. Various shapes and colors are shaking under the eyelids. They don’t know which side to look at. Most of the villages and counties are actually branched along the water source, so if you want to find the county or something, you should first look for the water system.

Fei Qian quickly found Fengqiu and Kuangting.

In fact, these two locations are on the east and west sides of Wuchao Lake...

Fighting is inseparable from water supply, and the birds and beasts growing in the swamp are also a better source of supply for the army, so it is not surprising that Wuchao Lake has become the first choice for many soldiers.

At this time, everyone in the lecture hall also circulated the battle report about the battle between Cao Cao and Yuan Shu.The battle report is not long, only forty or fifty words, but it is thrilling.

"Yuan entered Chenliu, stationed in Fengqiu, and sent his generals to station in Kuangting. Cao pretended to attack, Yuan rescued him, fought with him, Yuan was defeated and returned to Fengqiu. Cao surrounded him, Yuan fled to Xiangyi again, and was defeated again. , go to Jiujiang."

"The first question," Fei Qian said after seeing that everyone had read the battle report, "Is there any problem with the rear general's deployment of troops like this? Note, please analyze from the perspective before the war, and don't let the result affect you. Thinking about it. Think about it, if all of you here are the rear generals in command of the army, how would you position this force?"

Talking about martial arts, talking about martial arts, since you want to talk about it, of course you can't push forward from the result. If you are purely result-oriented, it is not impossible, but it will lose the meaning of teaching martial arts. Everything will be fine after the result. what?
So is there really a problem with Yuan Shu's layout?

Yuan Shu's main army was stationed in Fengqiu, and then the branch dispatched Liu Xiang to garrison Kuangting, surrounded Wuchao Ze, forming a horned situation, attacking the left, then the right rescued, and attacking the right, the left rescued, the troops were superior, the food and grass were superior, Whether it is a frontal battle or delaying consumption, Yuan Shu can sustain it without any problem.

Zaozhi stared at the map, looked at Fengqiu and Kuangting on the left and right sides of Wuchaoze, and then gestured and said: "If I had the upper hand, I would probably choose these two places... among other things, Feng Qiu can cross the Jishui River, and Kuangting can occupy the Pushui River, both of which are important places..."

Jishui and Pushui are the two water systems that connect Wuchao Ze. Jishui is larger and Pushui is smaller. Fengqiu and Kuangting are just the ferry crossings of these two water systems closest to Wuchao Ze.

From the perspective of tactical layout, there is nothing wrong with Yuan Shu's layout.

"Perhaps this was the general's plan to lure the enemy..." Xun Chen stroked his beard and said in a deep thought, "Fengqiu is already deep into the land of Chenliu. If we continue to go forward, there will be Xiahou army stationed on the white horse on one side. On one side is Cao Jun, and on the other there is Yu Suanzao, a county soldier from Chenliu..."

Lure the enemy?

There is also this possibility.

Zhang Liao nodded and said: "From the point of view of defense, the troops stationed in Fengqiu are the right ones. One is to defend the white horse soldiers, and the other is to defend against Chen Liu's army. The Kuang Ting is the auxiliary to prevent Cao's side attack and cut off the food road... ...And from the offensive point of view, Fengqiu can resist the joint forces of Cao Jun and Chen Liu from the front, and can also use Kuangting's army to attack Cao Jun's flanks... Overall, there is really nothing wrong with it."

"But..." Huang Cheng scratched his head and said with some doubts, "...but, since there is nothing wrong, why did you lose?"

Fei Qian nodded to agree with Huang Cheng's words, and then looked at Xun Chen. Although he had some answers in his heart, he still wanted to hear what his subordinates thought.

Many people think that a defeat is a defeat, and there is so much to say, but it is precisely because Yuan Shu did not make major mistakes in the beginning of the entire battle that Cao Cao's victory is particularly exciting.

Xun Chen saw Fei Qian's eyes and nodded slightly. He also knew that Fei Qian was giving him a chance to show himself. It is planned that Cao's army will inevitably join up with Suanzao Chenliu's army first, and then attack Fengqiu for a decisive battle, while Kuangting's garrison can take this opportunity to attack Cao Cao's rear. If it is the second situation, Cao Jun does not join forces with Chen Liujun, but wants to attack Yuan Jun's Kuangting first, then Yuan Jun can bypass Wuchao Ze and give Cao Jun a blow in the back... ..."

"...But someone in the Cao army must have understood Yuan Jun's plan." Xun Chen paused, wondering if he remembered something or someone, and then continued, "...sent a small number of troops to pretend to attack Yuan Shu's Kuang The horned army in the pavilion, when Yuan Jun came to help, attacked the central army, and after Yuan Jun was in an ambush, he was in a panic and failed to effectively gather his troops, and finally was defeated..."

Zaozhi nodded and said: "The most important thing for Yuan Jun is not to be defeated by the layout, but to be defeated by underestimating the enemy..."

Zhang Liao and Huang Cheng looked solemn.

Meanwhile, Xun Zhi and the others, who were listening with pricked ears, had piercing eyes, wishing to write down everything these people said in a small notebook...

Fei Qian pointed to Kuangting on the map and said, "This is a siege to fight for aid..."

Cao Cao's combat strategy is to use the main force to attack Yuan Shu's weak points first, and then attack the main force led by Yuan Shu, so as to avoid the passive situation of fighting on both sides; Attack Yuan Shu on the way.Sure enough, when Cao Cao attacked Kuangting, Yuan Shu didn't think carefully, that is, he rashly led the main force to rush to help, which completely fell into Cao Cao's plan.

On the surface, Cao Cao seemed to be attacking Kuangting, but in fact he was luring Yuan Shu's main force to come out of the fortifications. The large force bypassed the flanks of Yuan Shu's reinforcements to ambush, and waited for Yuan Shu's front army to pass through, before suddenly launching an attack on Yuan Shu's central army. However, Yuan Shu's command center was suddenly attacked, causing Yuan Shu's command system to be paralyzed, unable to organize effective resistance, and the entire army was defeated.

After the battle of Kuangting, Yuan Shu led the remnants to retreat to Fengqiu, and then Cao Cao pursued the victory and surrounded Fengqiu. Yuan Shu broke through and fled to Xiangyi.Cao Cao continued to pursue and flooded Xiangyi City above Taishoubei. Yuan Shu couldn't defend, so he fled to Ningling again and entered the territory of Yuzhou.In the end, Yuan Shu fled to Jiujiang in Yangzhou, and Cao Cao escaped the pursuit. Cao Cao also retreated to Yanzhou.

"...Surround the point to fight for aid, surround the point...to fight for aid..." Xun Chen stroked his beard, nodded and said, "It is true, the four-character Taoism of the Lord and Marquis embodies the true meaning of war..."

Who would have known that as early as this period, Cao Cao had played such a beautiful textbook template for besieging points and fighting aid?The key is that this tactical method is not within 36 counts...

Fei Qian suddenly thought, um, this 36 strategy doesn’t seem to be a book yet, should we do a crash course or something?It's not for cultivating top-level generals, but for cultivating middle-level generals, such as Qu Chang, Junhou, etc., as long as they are familiar with 36 tricks, can they have a chance to be exempted from some of the enemy's strategies to a certain extent?

Hmm, it seems to be a bit messed up.

"... Junhou, Junhou?" Seeing that Fei Qian was suddenly in a daze, Zaozhi called out in a low voice for some unknown reason.

Fei Qian came back to his senses, smiled, and said: "Thinking of something else... Surrounding a town for reinforcements, the enemy surrounding a town uses it as a bait to attract reinforcements from other places. The real purpose is to recruit reinforcements." The enemy and achieve the purpose of annihilating and aiding the enemy, but to achieve this goal, there must be two prerequisites, one is concealment, and the other is maneuvering."

"Concealment is to conceal one's real target, and the second is to conceal the troops attacking reinforcements. Maneuvering is very simple. Basically, if you can't enter the ambush site first, you will have some difficulties in attacking reinforcements..."

"Sun Tzu said that if you don't know the harm of using troops, you can't know the benefits of using troops. Therefore, mobilizing the enemy is not always good. In the battle between the two sides, every action we make will mobilize the enemy. It's normal. A smart general will make the enemy act according to his own arrangements through his own mobilization, but he mobilized the enemy army, but exposed his own weakness..."

"There are still many variables in besieging and attacking aid. It is fine to encircle more than one, or encircle more than one. At the same time, if the enemy uses this trick on us, how should we deal with it? Here is today's lecture in the martial arts hall." Homework..." Fei Qian looked at the crowd, and suddenly changed the topic, "Well, the strategy and discussion for everyone will be handed in within three days..."

Fei Qian ignored Huang Cheng's gloomy expression, and continued: "... those who are excellent in strategy and theory, go to the army with a certain one, are they bad... haha..."

When everyone heard the word "go out to the army", they couldn't help but feel refreshed, and then exchanged glances with each other.

Then Fei Qian pointed to Xun Zhi, Zhang Yun, Gong Jun, and Wei Du who were listening on the sidelines, and said: "...Although you don't have the right to lead the army alone, you can write about it. If you write it well, you can write it." Think about it, give the opportunity to lead the army independently..."

When everyone heard the words, some were happy and some were sad, but they all clasped their fists together and promised.

Well, being a boss is really good, assigning tasks casually...

"By the way," Fei Qian said with a smile, "...No plagiarism is allowed, each write their own, if there are any similarities, hehe..."

"Wei!" This time, everyone's expressions were much more serious.

Talk about martial arts, talk about martial arts, and talk at the beginning of the class.On the surface, it seems that it was established to let more people understand the military, so as not to be helpless when encountering problems.At this stage, no one will object to the establishment of this lecture hall, but these people don't know that Feiqian's lecture hall actually has a deeper meaning besides the superficial function...
