Faced with an opponent who has no flaws, it is natural to find ways to make him leak out the flaws.
And what opponent won¡¯t reveal flaws? There are only opponents who don¡¯t make moves.
As long as you make a move, you will find a flaw. It is difficult for an opponent who is as stable as a mountain and motionless as a clock to find a flaw.
The caution of the Burgundians now is like Feng Qingyang standing in front of Linghu Chong carelessly carrying a wooden branch - how can you defeat me if I don't make a move?
Therefore, what Bai Zhou is doing now is to force the Burgundians to take action and force them to make mistakes. Because a cautious opponent may give up any cake they get. When they see the benefits, they often take three steps back, sniff around and confirm that there are no traps before taking action; and when they encounter danger, their reaction is also Also take three steps back first, and then look back to confirm whether this is a real danger or a fake danger.
In this case, Bai Zhou will not use cakes to tempt them to make mistakes, but will use danger to force them to take those "three steps" back.
As long as there is action, the Burgundian will not be like a turtle that makes people unable to eat. And as they continue to retreat, the coalition forces who are in the right place at the right time have a great chance of finding his flaws.
"If you don't make a move, I will force you to make a move. This is Bai Zhou's tactic.
Of course, the prerequisite for Western Qin to adopt this tactic is that the allied army has Feng Qingyang, whose strength has no upper limit. Even if Linghu Chong shows no move, the senior Jianzong who has the upper hand will have a way to force this junior to make a move, thereby breaking it. . But if the roles were reversed, and the coalition forces were now at a disadvantage, then using this method would be no different than seeking death.
Therefore, throughout the night, Viscount Dahal discovered a very frustrating situation - as long as his scouts or rescue teams left the "Eight" Mountains, there would be no news.
The whole night, the Viscount's eyes were red. Now he understood that he was surrounded by the Western Qin people, but this was not the most terrifying thing. The most terrifying thing was that he didn't even know how the Western Qin people surrounded them and how many troops they deployed. Nothing is known.
The dark night was like a predatory beast, devouring the scouts he sent out one after another.
"Sir, we have lost one hundred and thirty-seven soldiers so far. Although I also want to define them as missing, it seems that they have either met God or been captured by our opponents. Now." The officer under Viscount Dahal had a serious face. The current situation forced him to become serious. After all, no one else would be happy now.
It is a pity to lose more than a hundred soldiers, but it is a pity that their deaths seem to have no due value at all.
"Do we still need to send a search force?" When the officer saw the Viscount in front of him, he didn't react at all, so he had to ask himself.
Dahal raised his head, closed his eyes heavily, took a long breath, as if to relieve something, and then said: "No, sending a small group of troops out now is equivalent to death." "We have to wait until daybreak to send out large troops."
The officer also breathed a sigh of relief, because he didn't say anything clearly just now: The soldiers in the entire military camp now know that several waves of reconnaissance troops have gone without returning, and whoever is sent out now is equivalent to being sent aboard. guillotine. No one wants to die, and naturally no one wants to act as a scout again. Just now, the officer was worried that if the Viscount still insisted on sending out more troops, where would he go to trick someone into committing suicide?
" Viscount Dahar did not consider the feelings of his soldiers for a while, but he also knew that it was meaningless to send the troops out in such an unclear manner. What he was worried about was such a dark sky. Presumably, the result of sending a large force would be the same as sending a small force. They would never come back. Rather than losing a few more men and horses in vain, it is better to concentrate our troops and wait until daybreak when the field of vision is clear before taking action.
If this gentleman had the ability to predict the future, he would definitely not do this. Instead, he would immediately lead a large force to retreat from the "eight" mountain range.
It's a pity that this gentleman didn't, and it was destined that the coalition forces finally took the initiative on the battlefield on the first night when the Burgundians entered the Belfort Mountains - whether to fight or release; whether to attack frontally or sneak attack from the side. , the Burgundians could only passively accept the coalition's choice.
Actually speaking, until now, the superior strength of the coalition forces has not yet detoured back to the Burgundians. In other words, at the mouth of the "eight", there are only five or six hundred coalition soldiers. This number is more than enough to kill the small group of scouts sent by the Burgundians. However, if you want to intercept the opponent's large group of troops, you can only Delusion.
Viscount Dahal and his troops missed what could be considered their last chance to escape. Wait?After daybreak, a large number of coalition forces were all deployed. By then, they would be in a dilemma.
Ignorance is a sin, and the price is usually very serious - this night, Dahal didn't know that his retreat had not been intercepted by the coalition forces. He was cautious and did not want any more troops, especially large groups of troops, to be lost in vain. However, because of this, he was unable to test out the coalition forces at his retreat, and did not actually set up too many ambush.
As Bai Zhou said before, bystanders know better, but once you get into the game, unless you are as smart as a monster, it will only be a matter of time before you become "obsessed".
Bai Zhou and the coalition forces he led were just a group of hunters who had completed the encirclement. If they were not worried about the rabbit biting someone in a hurry, then they could go up and pick the fruits of victory. But now, they are also waiting for dawn, and then scare this "timid rabbit". Otherwise, they will hide in the rabbit hole all the time, and Bai Zhou will have no good way to deal with them.
And the sun, just like this, slowly rises from the east amid everyone's expectations.
Sweeping away the gloom, sweeping away the decadence, at least that¡¯s how the Burgundians see it. In their eyes, the people of Western Qin, and perhaps the locals in Switzerland, would not be able to secretly attack them.
¡°Everyone¡¯s field of vision is no longer limited to a distance of one or twenty meters, they are all in the bright light, so there is no need to worry. Therefore, early in the morning, Dahal ordered his officers to send out seven scout teams to conduct intelligence reconnaissance in all directions. Each team had twelve people. In this way, even if they were raided, they should still be able to escape once or twice during the day. People, unlike at night, the whole army is wiped out and no news can be brought back.
As for himself, he led a large force and began to dismantle the camp and prepare to retreat.
I asked for some collections, but the results were bleak. Another: I just received a notice that next week the editor-in-chief Dingdong has secured a front page recommendation for me. If tobacco and alcohol don¡¯t break out, I will feel sorry for the heavens, the earth, and book friends in the middle. Well, I gave up smoking and drinking. Next week, see how it goes.
