    It is indeed very troublesome. The combat effectiveness of the poisonous and stubborn Black Mountain bandits is much worse than that of Zhang Yan's Black Mountain Army headquarters.  That day, when Ma Yunluo and his sister were crossing the border, they encountered these thieves who set up a blockade and made things difficult. The two brothers and a few of their followers were able to defeat hundreds of thieves, which was not worth mentioning.

    ¡°If we meet them in the plains, there is no need for cavalry, a few hundred light cavalry can drive these guys around like sheep.

    However, we are in the mountains now, which is the most suitable terrain for these guys.  In addition, the rebels did not seek victory, but only wanted to delay the Qingzhou Army's time and schedule, making them very difficult to deal with.

    If you want a quick victory, you can't cover everything. As a result of hastily advancing troops, even brave generals like Taishi Ci were plotted against.  It was safe this time, but who can guarantee that it will be fine next time?

    From the information provided by the locals, it seems that there are places where the rugged mountain road suddenly widens, or where the mountain wall is not so steep.  Once you encounter an ambush in a place like this, it won't be a matter of twisting your feet or having holes in your armor.

    The defensive power of plate armor is very powerful, but no matter how strong it is, it cannot be stronger than the power of heaven and earth.  Just like the allusion of Zhuge Liang burning the Snake Valley, once someone ambushes you in a dangerous place, all the armor you wear is useless.

    If we attack step by step, the risk will be small, but it will take a long time.  Just as Zhuge Liang feared, if as Wang Yu expected, Lu Bu had been ambushed by Cao Cao, who was besieging Lu Bu in Hanoi.  Then, after receiving the reward from the Black Mountain bandits, Cao Cao can dispatch elite troops to the other end of Baixing in a very short period of time.

    The greatest advantage of the cavalry is mobility. Without mobility, it is difficult to rush out from a narrow valley.  If you can't rush out, it's difficult to retreat. Wasn't this how Qian Man was forced to death by Yu Jin back then?

    It seems that there is only a detour left in front of us.

    Since Cao Cao has made arrangements in advance, Taihangxing must be inaccessible. You can also enter Hanoi through the farther Zhiguanxing, but you have to go in a big circle.  But at least there was no risk. No matter how cautious Cao Cao was, he couldn't seal all three roads.

    Judging from Cao Cao's arrangement, he was not very sure whether Wang Yu would go directly from Shangdang to Hanoi. Even Bai Xing only wanted to take precautions before they happened.

    The Black Mountain bandits are of little use in sieges and field battles. Rather than letting them be an eyesore and consuming precious military rations, it is better to fight them far away and prevent Wang Yu from suddenly killing him from the upper party.  Come here, it can be regarded as waste utilization.

    In a sense, the encounter with the enemy at Baixing not only did not reduce Wang Yu's prestige, but instead deepened the generals' admiration and belief in him.

    The last time we received military information from the Central Plains was when the army set off from Bingzhou.  Jia Xu's report only explained the latest changes, not even the corresponding speculations.  However, Wang Yu accurately saw through Cao Jun's movements and headed straight for Hanoi.

    It seems like they are being deceived, but the Qingzhou generals would rather believe that this is the result of their lord's planning.  Either it was the effect of the tip bag, or the lord had already counted the enemy to death.

    As for encountering the enemy in Baixing, this is a force majeure event.  Cao Cao is not a puppet on a string. He can force Jia Xu to the point where he is unable to parry. It is certainly not surprising that he will take precautions and set up defenses in advance.

    "A detour" Wang Yu was not very satisfied with the result of the military discussion, but there was nothing he could do. Based on comprehensive judgment, this was the most practical method.

    If we leave now, we will be delayed for almost three or four days on the road. Even if Cao Cao gets the news as soon as possible, he will not have time to block the road.  Once they enter Hanoi, the Wind and Fire Cavalry is like a dragon returning to the sea, and can gallop freely. Cao Cao divided his troops to intercept them, but he was just humiliating himself.

    "Compared with fighting hard for several days in Baixing and facing the enemy's siege at the mouth of the valley, a detour is the best option.

    "My lord, are you worried about Marquis Wen's safety?" Zhuge Liang saw Wang Yu's concerns and asked softly.

    "Yes." Wang Yu turned his head and looked at the pale Lu Qiling, his eyes full of love and affection, but the answer he spoke slowly was the wrong answer: "Everyone must really want to know what is written in that brochure.  , what changes will it bring to the war situation?"

    "Please tell me, my lord." The generals looked at each other, not knowing what the lord meant by suddenly mentioning this matter. However, this question has indeed been bothering everyone for a long time. It must be a lie to say that they don't want to know.

    "It is said to be a clever tip, but it is not as magical as imagined. All the contents can be summed up in four words"

    Wang Yu looked away from his wife's face and looked at the generals under his tent. Although the situation was not very good, every resolute face was filled with loyalty.??and fearless.  Wang Yu had no doubt that no matter whether there was a mountain of swords or a sea of ??fire ahead, as long as he gave the order, these loyal and brave soldiers would rush forward without hesitation.

    Even so, Wang Yu is not sure how everyone will react when he tells the truth.

    Will you be disappointed?  Or will you laugh it off?  Or feel dissatisfied, even resentful?

    People¡¯s hearts are unpredictable, and there is no way to guess whether Wang Yu is a human or not a god.  There was only one thing he knew for sure, and it was time to find out.

    "These four words are: fight on your own!" In the silence where the needle could be heard, Wang Yu's clear words were like a big stone hitting the calm water, knocking everyone out at once.

    "What do you mean by fighting on your own Lord, have you relieved the military advisor of his command?" Zhuge Liang stared blankly at Wang Yu, with an expression of disbelief on his face.  At this moment, the young man with unparalleled eloquence suddenly turned into a stammer. He stumbled over a very simple sentence and paused seven or eight times.

    Wang Yu did not speak, but nodded slightly, obviously acquiescing.

    "At this time, everyone is fighting on their own? Isn't that the same as having no command? How the battle situation will evolve, I'm afraid only God knows!" Tai Shici was also confused.

    Although remote command is not feasible, as the supreme commander, the lord must at least have an idea of ??the battle situation, right?  If all the soldiers and horses in Yanzhou are fighting independently, who else can control the direction of the battle?  Doesn't this completely give up the initiative?

    "Ziyi, you are right, only God knows about this kind of thing!" Faced with Taishi Ci's question, Wang Yu was not angry but happy, and nodded to him with a smile.

    This abnormality was immediately discovered by the attentive Zhao Yun. He pondered for a moment, and a thought suddenly flashed through his mind, and he blurted out without thinking: "I understand! My lord just wants to confuse the situation and confuse Cao Cao's sight.  Let him have no time to respond!"

    Only this explanation is reasonable.

    Cao Cao¡¯s strategy was designed by Jia Xu, Lu Bu, Guan Ping and Chen Dao respectively.  The alienation plan obviously failed on Guan Ping, and Chen Dao also had Wang Mo guarantee that nothing would happen. Although it had a certain impact on the morale of the army, overall, it cannot be considered a complete success.  However, Cao Cao's design against Lu Bu was completely successful, and he also succeeded in shaking Jia Xu. This is the most fatal thing.

    There is no concept of psychological warfare in this era, but there are many wise men in this world who are good at it, including Jia Xu, Cao Cao, and Guo Jia.

    Psychological warfare cannot be seen or touched, but it is more dangerous than a battle with real swords and guns.  Once it fails and the opponent takes the initiative, it is very likely that every move will be clearly seen by the opponent.

    This was the case with Jia Xu. His weaknesses were exposed, and he seemed to be a little timid under Cao Cao's aggressive momentum.

    It would be best if he could overcome it on his own, but the problem is that Cao Cao would most likely not give him such a margin.  In this case, whether it is to change generals at random or to conduct remote control, it is a bad idea.

    If you want to change, you will not be able to find anyone. Among the talents Wang Yu has recruited, more than half are underage.  No matter how precocious he is, he cannot be a match for a wily hero like Cao Cao.  What's more, the two most outstanding and most promising people to succeed Jia Xu are not in Yanzhou.

    Tian Feng does have this qualification and knowledge.  But the problem is that since becoming a minister under Wang Yu, Tian Feng has focused on domestic affairs and has not participated in major military affairs for many years. It is also unrealistic for him to take over.

    "So the lord ordered all the ministries to fight on their own?"

    "Wen Yuan and Wen Ze are both talented generals. Even if they are allowed to stand alone, they may not be at a disadvantage against Cao Cao. Tan Zhi is a bit younger, but I ordered Wen to rush to Juyang to join him Gao Tangna  It's a bit dangerous, but Boyan is talented, uncle is meticulous, and Mo Jie, who is good at dancing, can mediate between them, so there shouldn't be much of a problem"

    The reason why Wang Yu dared to do this was because he believed in the talents of his generals. These talents would bring great trouble to Cao Cao.

    "Losing overall command is very dangerous in the long term. However, within a month or two, Cao Cao may not be able to figure things out and find their respective weaknesses. Instead, it will feel like a mouse pulling a turtle and having no way to start.  This somewhat random strategy will disrupt Cao Cao's deployment and destroy the advantages he established in advance. However, this strategy also has a major weakness"

    Wang Yu chose to reveal the mystery at this time for the sake of the following explanation.  In fact, Zhuge Liang and Zhao Yun, who were the quickest responders, already guessed it almost without him having to point out the answer.

    "Yes, it's Hanoi! Marquis Wen's troops are still equivalent to guest troops, and they have never been integrated into the overall strategy. This time it is even more What I am most worried about is that Cao Cao will find that Yanzhou is difficult to capture, and he will hurt my fingers.  , why not cut me offWith one arm's idea, he aimed his finger at Marquis Wen!  "

    "Oh!" Lu Qiling was shocked when she heard this. She covered her mouth with her hands, but she still couldn't cover up her choked cries.  The girl forced herself to suppress it and did not cry in public, but two lines of clear tears were already flowing down her cheeks, like a string of pearls, which was heartbreaking.

    "In terms of love, Marquis Wen and I have a brother-in-law relationship; in terms of reason, the Puyang Army is an ally of our army Regardless of emotion or reason, our army must arrive in Hanoi as soon as possible and carry out rescue" Wang Yu did not look back, but  The tone became higher, and there seemed to be a sound of gold and iron in the sonorous and powerful words: "Therefore, in this battle, there is no retreat!"

    "If you advance, never retreat!" All the generals agreed in unison, and the shouts broke the silence of the night and echoed among the mountains and valleys.  (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, the novels will be better and updated faster!)
