Chapter 1328 Deduction
This decisive battle in Yanjin gathered hundreds of thousands of soldiers to fight, and it was magnificent. Whether it was Yuan Jun or Cao Jun, they had already suppressed the main force, which naturally shocked the whole world.

Now all eyes in the world are focused on this battle.

A hegemon will soon be born in the Central Plains.

This battle is the key.

Whether Cao Cao swallowed Yuan Shao, or Yuan Shao destroyed Cao Cao, the Battle of Yanjin will tell a little bit.

The spies of the various princes spied information on the battlefield one after another, and then gathered the information back to the base camp, so that their lord could know as soon as possible.

Although the surrounding scouts were intertwined, but this was not guarded against, and the news began to spread continuously.

And Jingwu Division's news channel is the fastest in the world. It only takes one day and one night to transmit the news from Yanjin back to Yudu.

Mu Jing has been paying attention to this battle.

When the news came back, he was a little taken aback.

"Isn't it Guandu?"

Standing next to the deduction sand table of the Privy Council, Mu Jing frowned.

Yuan Shao and Cao Cao had a decisive battle.

It should be in Guandu.

But why in Yanjin?
He patted his head, and now there are fewer and fewer things that history can provide him with reference, because the history that should have existed has been completely changed by his little butterfly.

"The flames of flames are raging outside, our Ming Dynasty is about to be established, and we need to seek stability, but we must not relax a little bit, so we must predict their war trend as much as possible!"

This is the purpose of Mujing's Privy Council today. Otherwise, he is busy planning for the founding of the country and the coronation, and also to stabilize the internal affairs. How could he have such free time to come here to make a fuss.

War is unavoidable at any time.

Unless the central plains are unified, perhaps there will be more years of peace, otherwise the rhythm of the war will not be able to stop.

Now that the Ming Dynasty is about to be established, the Lord requires stability, but externally, one must be cautious. Who knows, the army will display it at the door and drive straight in if it is unexpected.

After all, Mujing is somewhat of an enemy of the world. He has been independent for so many years, coupled with his age of being envied by others, and that branch has a background that has been criticized.

Mu Jing would not be surprised if Liu Bei, Cao Cao, Sun Jian, and Yuan Shao joined forces to fight the Southwest.

So even if Mu Jing suppressed the main force in this Central Plains War, he still used Jing Wusi to the extreme, and he had to clearly guess all the news from outside.

"Who do you think has a better chance in this battle?"

Mu Jing raised his head, his eyes swept away, looked at a group of people in the Privy Council, and asked in a low voice.

"It's hard to tell at the moment!"

Huang Zhong, as the head of the Privy Council, looked at the Yanjin battlefield laid out on the sand table, and said in a low voice: "At present, we have not fully figured out the approach of the two sides, and we don't know the fighting spirit of the two sides. , There are too many factors that determine victory or defeat, and we have too little news!"

"I actually think that Yuan Shao has a better chance of winning!"

It was Chen Gong who answered.

"why?"

Mu Jing narrowed his eyes, looked at Chen Gong, the head of the staff department, and asked.

"Cao Jun is too aggressive!" Chen Gong stood up and walked around the sand table. Then, with a long bamboo stick in his hand, he pointed to the terrain inside the sand table and said: "They crossed the Yellow River, and there was insufficient response from the beginning to the end. There is a chance, but Yuan Jun is not stupid, how could he collapse after being defeated by him? Once a protracted war is fought, whether it is the supply of food and grass or the terrain, Cao Jun will be insufficient. Details can determine a war Victory!"

"I agree with Director Chen's point of view!" Followed by Zhao Wei, the head of the logistics department: "At present, Yuan Shaodu has the advantage in terms of terrain and military strength!"

"But let's not forget that there are at least white horses behind Cao's army. The white horses can cross the river smoothly and supply enough food and grass. In this way, the situation on the north bank can be stabilized. Although Cao's army has lost its advantage in fighting across the river, the increased Troublesome, but at the strategic level, they are doing very well, taking the initiative to attack, and they are making a move!"

Li Yan of the Ideological and Political Department is also a member of the Privy Council, so he will naturally express some opinions.

Mu Jing just listened quietly.

There are many people with great power and wisdom. At this time, the opinions they put forward represent the views of many people on this battle.

"Have you ever thought about Cao Cao's intention to forcibly cross the Yellow River to the north and enter Yanjin, and even to start the prelude to the decisive battle here at Yanjin at any cost?"

Mujing opened his mouth slowly and asked.

"This is a question worth exploring!" Everyone glanced at each other, and they were secretly shocked, and their expressions became slightly brighter.

"My lord is suspicious. Cao Cao is setting up a trap for Yuan Shao?"

Huang Zhong may have read the book recently, and felt that his brain was not too slow, and he became a little quicker when he understood Mu Jing's meaning.

"No way?"

Chen Gong quickly flipped through the reports sent back from Jingwu Division, hoping to find some clues: "Cao Jun is undoubtedly playing with fire!"

The lone army goes deep, and the main force goes north, which requires paying a heavy price.

Once there is no greater interest set off.

I'm afraid Cao Jun will suffer a big loss this time.

"First of all, we have to think this way. Cao Mengde dare not fight Yuan Shao to the death. After all, both sides will suffer. When the time comes, the cheapest one may be outsiders like us!"

Mu Jing began to analyze: "How could two old and cunning people make things so rough, they both want a quick solution!"

The enemy is not necessarily on the battlefield.

For example, Cao Cao and Yuan Shao, when they fought each other on the battlefield, they had to be careful not to let themselves be tricked. When the time came when the snipe and the clam competed for the fisherman's benefit, it would be a tragedy.

Compared with Yuan Shao, Cao Cao was more afraid of the Southwest.

That's why he is likely to be dangerous.

"If the battle in Yanjin was just the beginning, where would Cao Cao put the decisive battle?" Zhao Wei asked a very bold question, which made everyone fall into deep thought.

"Han Sheng!"

Mu Jing suddenly said: "Let's deduce, I will be Cao Cao, you will be Yuan Shao!"

Sand table deduction has become a relatively regular activity of the generals of the Mu army. This is conducive to the generals' control of the battle situation, and it is also conducive to strengthening each other's thinking on the battlefield.

"Can!"

Huang Zhong walked over and stood opposite the sand table.

"Li Yan follows me!" Mu Jing said.

"promise!"

Li Yan bowed his hand and took the order.

"Gongtai, you are my military advisor!"

Huang Zhong also ordered generals.

"Yes!"

Chen Gong was also standing beside Huang Zhong.

"The rest are in their positions!" Mu Jing clapped his hands, and this occupied deduction officially started. First, the layout on the battlefield was carried out based on the news that Yanjin had sent back.

"The strength of both sides is based on [-]!"

Mu Jing thought for a while and said.

Whether it is Cao Jun or Yuan Jun, the main force is basically the same as the figure of [-].

If you want to gather the main force, 20 can be squeezed out.

But once it reached this point, there was no way out at all. He believed that Cao Cao and Yuan Shao were not so confused.

"On this plain, the two armies are fighting fiercely!"

The neutral generals began to act as narrators, reporting the movement on the battlefield.

"If this fight continues, it will inevitably become a war of attrition. Once the war of attrition starts, it will drag on for a long time, and it will also cause problems in logistics and supply. Therefore, this battle must be resolved quickly, at least to solve the problem of Yanjin. matter!"

Mu Jing began to substitute his own thinking into Cao Cao's.

One person cannot replace another person's thinking.

But it can be imitated.

"Gathering soldiers means taking the edge of the sword and putting all your eggs in one basket!"

Mu Jing finally spoke: "But now, we don't have a third way to go, we can only live to the death, and immediately push all the soldiers and horses in front, and run through Yuan Jun's formation, attack is the best Defense, if you want to live, you can only attack!"

"attack!"

"attack!"

A group of people around him shouted and drank.

Mujing smiled awkwardly and calmed them all down.

The deduction continues.

The atmosphere on the sand table that was stiff at the moment began to slowly ripple out.

Huang Zhong stared at the sand table with a pair of tiger eyes. He was also in the coke oven, substituting Yuan Shao's thinking, but it was not so easy, after all, he was not Yuan Shao.

"Cao Cao wants to fight to the death, but I may not be willing to do so. If we procrastinate, we may not be able to procrastinate!" Huang Zhong gritted his teeth and said in a low voice. He took the initiative to substitute Yuan Shao's thinking, but he felt something was wrong.

"But I can't retreat!"

"I can only fight to the death!"

Huang Zhong began to set up his formation.

You come to me on both sides.

Maybe because some of them know too much, so their chess moves are the same, so no one suffers, but instead fights a protracted battle.

"What if I divide the troops?"

Mu Jing was thinking about the direction on the sand table. From Cao Cao's standpoint, he couldn't think of too many ways to solve it quickly, but he was unwilling to fight attrition.

Finally, Mu Jing suddenly thought of this idea.

"Divided troops?"

Standing beside Mu Jing, Li Yan's eyes moved. He was also a military adviser. In this regard, he has the right to speak and his ability is quite good.

"At this time, divide the troops, aren't you afraid that the main force of the reinforcements will be interspersed?"

Li Yan said in a low voice.

"The key is to plan well, and not reveal the truth, otherwise the emperor and the empress will chase after each other, and life will be difficult for everyone!"

Mujing finally made a decision, and immediately ordered: "Let's divide up the troops first, stay and resist the main force on one line, and then bypass this team and fight directly behind them!"

……

At this moment, Huang Zhong entered Yuan Shao's thinking.

Huang Zhong was concentrating on looking at the sand table, black and white intertwined on the sand table, according to Yuan Shao's thinking, how should he fight this battle.

"Master Privy Envoy, my lord has already pushed Cao Jun to the door!"

Chen Gong said with a wry smile: "We should be forced to fight!"

"My lord's style is still so fierce, much more vicious than Cao Cao's!" Huang Zhong said with a sneer, "We just need to do our job well!"

……

The deduction is where the two sides come and go. On the entire sand table, there are small flags everywhere.

"stop!"

Mujing stopped.

"What's the matter?" Huang Zhongzheng fell into a state of excitement, and was suddenly stopped, feeling a little uncomfortable, but it wasn't suspicion, it was just that his eyes were a little puzzled.

"Not quite right!"

Mu Jing said: "It's only less than an hour, but the number of soldiers and soldiers who fell in the battle is countless, it's too tragic, the damage between you two is too great, it doesn't conform to Cao Cao's deployment, so I think it should be Only by re-deducting and re-substituting Cao Cao's thinking will we have a chance to break through this rigid situation!"

"Retreat to advance!"

With an idea, Li Yan walked up and whispered in Mujing's ear.

When Mu Jing heard this, he immediately smiled.

"Do it all over again!"

Mu Jing waved his hand.

"Yes!"

The generals began to restore their previous positions, and the previous sand table was still that sand table.

The second round of deduction begins.

At the beginning of the war, Mu Jing, who was replaced by Cao Cao's thinking, killed the Quartet at first, but when the two sides were fighting, they suddenly withdrew the main force of the army.

"why?"

Huang Zhong couldn't understand this round of operation.

"Go ahead!"

Mu Jing said with a smile.

"Yes!"

The two sides continued to stay on this small sand table, deducing the battle situation.

"Taking a step back is to go further!"

Mu Jing withdrew all the small battle flags representing Cao Jun on the sand table to the north bank of the Yellow River, and returned to the south bank of the Yellow River.

In the Battle of Yanjin, Cao Cao lost.

Of course, this is just a deduction.

But Huang Zhong still didn't understand why Mu Jing thought that Cao Cao would withdraw his troops at this time. Didn't he act like a tiger and directly tear apart Yuan Jun's attack and kill him.

You know, on the battlefield, the brave wins when they meet on a narrow road.

"My lord, I don't think Cao Cao should have withdrawn his troops!"

Chen Gong said in a low voice.

"What if he has a plan?"

"What plot?" Everyone looked at Mujing.

"Look!"

Mu Jing began to explain in detail: "If I were Cao Cao and fought on the north bank, no matter how I fought, it would be very difficult to destroy Yuan Shao!"

"Destroyed?"

This word made all the generals startled and couldn't help trembling.

"I see!"

Chen Gong made it clear: "Cao Cao's taking such risks is simply inviting you into the urn. His decisive battle has never been thought of in Yanjin. No, it should be said that it is definitely not on the north bank of the Yellow River!"

The battlefield on the north bank of the Yellow River was beneficial to Yuan Jun. Even if Yuan Jun mutinied, he could withdraw smoothly and then make a comeback. This was not in Cao Cao's interest.

Cao Cao was ambitious, he simply wanted to remove Yuan Shao.

"The south bank of the Yellow River?"

The generals also reacted.

"The battle of Yanjin is only Cao Cao's bait!"

Everyone's eyes became brighter.

"But in this way, the question arises, what is Cao Mengde's mind, and where is he going to fight Yuan Jun to the death!"

All the generals looked deeply.

"here!"

Mu Jing pointed to a place.

Just now he felt a little obedient, but now he has figured it out. The battlefield should still be at Guandu, but Cao Cao is a bit more vicious, and he made the foreshadowing.
