Chapter 68 Arrangements Mochu was still discussing with the Apodas, but they called some important generals. In fact, I have some regrets in my heart because I was a little slow. If Ashibi had arrived at Fengzhou and Moju at Shengzhou one day earlier, or another army had been sent to Zhongshou Jiangcheng, the situation would not have been like this. Makes him feel weird. Use one's own strengths to counter the other's shortcomings. Several people were analyzing Wang Hua's strengths and weaknesses. The first is tactics. During the battle between Xueying and Cao Cen, Mo Chuo had sent someone to pay attention. If others haven't noticed yet, this tactic will immediately enter Mo Chu's field of vision. He also organized some elite soldiers to practice this tactic with excellent horses. I know it¡¯s not as smooth as the Blood Camp, but when using this tactic in the Blood Camp, they won¡¯t be as passive as Zong Chuke, Cao Cen and Xinuoluo. Apodagan said: "Then there are weapons." Everyone fell silent. In this war, some sharp weapons appeared in the blood camp one after another, making the blood camp even more powerful. The most important one is the longbow, which is simply the natural enemy of the cavalry. At the beginning, the blood camp did not have much equipment, but now it began to equip it on a large scale. Just like the attack on the three surrendered cities, more than half of the soldiers began to officially use this longbow. Mo smiled and gestured to a soldier beside him. The soldier walked down and brought a bow. In fact, the range of the longbow makes reasonable use of mechanical principles, but if you want to get it, you have to pay. Although the arc and length of the bow arm are very reasonable, it still requires the arm strength of the soldier. Mo Chu smiled: "Let's give it a try." The generals came over excitedly, but this showed a person's arm strength. Some generals pulled away, and some used all their strength to only pull the bowstring. Half open. This is a drawing obtained by the silent scouts after many observations. It happened that among the people captured this time, there were many Han craftsmen. The nine surnames of Zhaowu were good merchants, but good merchants were not necessarily obtained through trading. Some Hu people with the nine surnames of Zhaowu also had workshops, which provided conditions for Mochu. But Rome could not be built in a day. Wang Hua drew the blueprints and gave some principles. He used many craftsmen and it took a long time to test out a reasonable long bow. The technology of Mochu's longbow is immature. It is more labor-intensive than the longbow of Blood Camp, and its range is not as good. But it has a much longer range than ordinary bows and arrows. Even silently, it is clear in my heart. If the long bows were as labor-intensive as they are now, only half of these generals would be able to draw them, and it would be impossible for the blood camp to be armed on a large scale. Therefore, this technology is not yet mature, but when Guan Jian uses it, it will give Wang Hua a surprise. In fact, in this blood camp battle, if Wang Hua hadn't pointed his gun at him in the end, Mo Chu would have gained a lot. He vaguely felt that if he had successfully practiced Wang Hua's tactics, or if he had successfully practiced this kind of tactics, he would have gained a lot. A perfect longbow may not win over the blood camp, but it will be invincible in the prairie. Today I am showing this kind of long bow to encourage everyone. After all, the Blood Camp was so prosperous during this period. It had repelled more than 600,000 troops and might have eaten up all the Sinolo army in the south. If you don't give everyone some confidence, it will be very disadvantageous when fighting. There are two other weapons that make Mochu feel afraid. The first is explosives. However, this requires a special environment and the explosives should be buried in advance. However, after careful analysis, Mochui found that this weapon was powerful, but its lethality was far less than the sound. Just be careful, if you don't follow the opponent's footsteps, the explosives will have very little effect. There is also no need to panic when encountering this kind of explosive, and it will not cause much harm. The biggest trouble is that the horse will be severely frightened, which will cause a slight headache. Thinking of a solution now. Mo Chu is right or wrong, this kind of explosive is not very powerful now. But once the technology matures and a series of hot weapons are produced, it will be useless for Mochu to learn Wang Hua's tactics. Are the 30,000 people under Seng Gelinqin's cold weapons weak in combat effectiveness? In the battle in Tianjin, he was killed by eight hundred foreigners and was stripped of his armor. The same goes for the longbow, which the British proudly retained in their regiments, and then eventually had to be consigned to museums as countries like France became stronger with thermal weapons. But now, if his subordinates can really follow Mo Chu's instructions, they can minimize the damage. But isn¡¯t it possible? Then there is the trebuchet. Not many people know this news, and Mochu just got it through the channels of some people. He didn't see what it looked like. But in his mind, no matter how powerful the trebuchet is, it is only useful when attacking a city. He can defend the city while Wang Hua attacks the city? Haha, could it be that his subordinates have turned into cowardly Han people? The only thing I'm worried about is sending trebuchets to Dongshoujiang City to attack Moju. Mo Chu is also trying to figure out a solution. As for the others, such as the glider or the flying skyBalloons or chili powder cannot be put on the table and require a strict environment. Can I paint this environment for Wang myself? When it comes to rockets, be careful when setting up camp. After hearing what Mo Chui said, the generals began to gear up. At this time, Apodagan said: "There is another advantage, water." Everyone was surprised. Wang Hua had used water attack, but that was Shanzhou. The terrain was complex, the water level dropped greatly, and the water flow was gentle almost where the Hetao was. , Unless Wang Hua blocked the Yellow River, that kind of water attack would be of no use at all. Mo Chu said: "Exactly, water. I learned a piece of news some time ago that the Blood Camp built many ships by the Lingzhou River. But we are not good at water. With these ships, they can quickly control the Yellow River." After all, we have to cross the river eventually, but don't worry. The biggest drawback of the Blood Camp this time is that Wang Hua has arrived in Fengzhou. If Wang Hua can maximize his talents by sitting in the middle, he should do it in the front. A brave general who can maximize his talents?" Having said this, he proudly said again: "We still have a powerful secret chess game, which will surprise Wang Hua again when we get to Guan Jian." He has already sent someone to contact him. Not only that, these tribes in Fengzhou also notified the various tribes in Liuhu Prefecture. Wang Hua fired the first shot, but Mo Chu was not sure what other moves he would follow. But one thing is that now Wang Hua should know his intentions and capture people to fill the population in the territory. The huge number of people will definitely affect your marching speed and mobility, so you must change. Instead of abandoning the people, they would directly hand them over to the tribes that sincerely surrendered and move them north, and directly organize the army. However, there is no rush now, we must wait until Fengzhou's secret chess occurs, and we also need to further confuse the opponent. But this piece of news was extremely concealed. After Mo Chu only said this sentence, he did not say anything more, but changed the topic and said: "Everyone has seen the battles in the Blood Camp. The first battle was last year, because Zadayan separated the army. So Wang Hua was first allowed to eat 30,000 men, which resulted in a shortage of troops. Then Wang Hua was allowed to fight at Daotanghe and defeat the whole army of Zadayan. Together, the whole army was still destroyed. Chang Yuankai only divided his troops into two groups and was annihilated. Zong Chuke also only divided his troops into two groups, which were not very far apart. This time, Xinuoluo's troops were united and annihilated. "Destroyed" Several times, the expressions on everyone's faces changed again. Faced with this kind of record, everyone will feel psychological pressure, so this time Mo Chuu wants to fight against the blood camp. It is not just Wang Hua who has a bad taste, and it is not just Wang Hua who cuts off his retreat. If you want to withdraw without taking the people with you, and let Moju send troops to Fengzhou, the secret chess left by Fengzhou will be waiting for an opportunity to happen. Wang Hua is a Da Luo god, and he cannot save this situation when he only has three or four thousand soldiers in his hands. Moreover, the Blood Camp is now short of troops, so if they capture Fengzhou and retreat to Yinshan, the Blood Camp will be helpless. But Mo Chu wants a battle, and this battle must shatter the myth of the Blood Camp's invincibility. In his heart, he vaguely felt that if he retreated without a fight, no matter what the reason was, the blood camp's reputation would reach its peak, and then the blood camp would become a truly invincible army. This consequence was not what Mochu wanted. Besides, Wang Hua didn't have a good impression of Tibet. Could it be that he had a good impression of Turks? He added: "But the myth of the Blood Camp, from now on, let our great Turks stop." At this point, he waved his arms, and his eyes shone with confidence. Although the blood camp is now stronger than before, Mo Chuo is not afraid in his heart. I had always been contemptuous of him before, so I suffered some hardships. However, the bloody battles between the Blood Camp and the Turks also resulted in heavy casualties and miserable victories. Now that Wang Hua is surrounded by enemies on all sides, does he still have the courage to fight a tragic victory against himself? Then start setting up. The army stays together, and of course they hold their fists together. But it is impossible to do so militarily. Having an army all the way will only make the tactics rigid, and dealing with this cunning opponent may be a dead end. Only by dividing the troops can we be more flexible. Of course, this division of troops needs to be flexible and coordinated with each other. Otherwise, if the division is not done well, it will lead to individual defeats. The troops must be divided. How to divide them? Mo Chui pointed at the map and said: "Normal strategy, we attack Shengzhou City, only retake Shengzhou, and integrate it with the surrendered city in Hebei, that is, the blood camp has ships. There's nothing we can do, but we don't want to do this. "Everyone is puzzled. It's a good time to take Shengzhou. The blood camp will cross the Yellow River from the upper reaches and take Ibili to focus on the east. The one who surrendered the city and captured Shengzhou. This is a lone army, and they did not bring any weapons. There are some weapons in the city to defend the city, but they are not many in number. This is the time to capture the city, why not attack? You must know that once the blood camp ships arrive, supplies will be available immediately, and it will be very difficult to attack by then. ?Looking at everyone¡¯s doubtsWith an expression on his face, he smiled silently and said: "Don't forget, there is only this lone army in Nanhetao. In Hebei, we still have thousands of troops. I just asked their ships to provide support, and then sent these ships Take it down." At this point, he smiled proudly. "If you take it down and attack it, we won't be the ones to attack. Someone will attack." Mochuo once again sold it out. With the blood camp having the danger of the city wall and the power of the longbow, the attack will cause heavy damage, and Mochui can't compete either. rise. If he wins miserably in the end, the plan will be a failure this time. Even if a large number of people were taken captive, it would not be able to make up for the loss of a large number of soldiers killed in battle. not worth it. But the weapons of the blood camp are limited, so in his plan, Fengzhou broke out, and then the armies of the nine surnames of Zhaowu were established, making them the target of public criticism in Liuhuzhou, and they would only listen to their own decisions. The attack on Shengzhou was to use these people as cannon fodder. After polishing the weapons in the city, it was time to actually attack the city. Therefore, now we only need to station some troops to guard Hebei. Most of the army took advantage of the fact that the soldiers of the Blood Camp did not return from Jishi Mountain and invaded the two states of Yinxia. Instead of attacking the city, lead them outside the city. It's easy to handle without leaving the city. Now the people of Yinxia and other prefectures have returned together and started farming and production. Go one village at a time and capture and sweep them away thoroughly. Forcing the defenders in the city to fight. Then wait for the opportunity. If the Blood Camp fights hard to the end, the soldiers from these two states will be wiped out and the Blood Camp's power will be weakened. If they divide their troops from Yanzhou and Lingzhou, they can attack Yanzhou and Lingzhou. Having said this, Mo Chui said confidently: "Loving the people is Wang Hua's biggest weakness." It is difficult to deal with the army, but is it still difficult to deal with the people? Hearing these words, the atmosphere in the tent became intense. But Mo Chuu didn¡¯t say anything. No matter what happened to the war in the south, it was just about weakening each other to see who could use the tactics properly. He will eventually have to cross the river, and this huge twist will still become a bloody twist. He seemed to see the soldiers of the bloody camp and his own soldiers twisting and turning in this twist, and each soldier fell tragically. Thinking of this, the corner of his mouth twitched again. At this moment, a Turkic warrior rushed in. He was reporting on An Jiewu. Mo Chui laughed and said, "That's just right. Before the battle, let's use these thousands of people to sacrifice the flag." Tun Yugu, who hadn't spoken for a long time, suddenly spoke and said, "Don't worry, Khan. "Prime Minister, what's the matter?" "Great Khan, keep these people here for now." "Prime Minister, are you watching "The Art of War"?" Silently sat down and thought. After a while, he suddenly laughed and said: "Prime Minister, what a good idea." If used well, this will increase one's chances of winning. The hero saw the same thing, and actually had the same thoughts as Wang Hua. Wang Hua returned to Fengzhou, but he did not bring Pugu Qing to the city. Instead, he let her endure it for a few days. Then he would give her a chance and even promised to let her kill her husband and son's enemy with her own hands. Wang Hua had never heard of the Shi family's wife, but this woman would never be as chaste as the Shi family's young lady. Then Jiang Zhengdao and other generals were called together to discuss. Although Zhu Tong and others may not be able to use it, there are many people and many ideas, so they can make up for their own mistakes. After explaining the matter, Jiang Zhengdao said angrily: "Kill." Regardless of the three thousand to five thousand, this group of people is not even as good as the militiamen of the Blood Camp. If not killed, staying in Fengzhou will be a huge trouble, especially since tens of thousands of Turkic troops may arrive in the near future. Wang Hua looked at him with a half-smile and asked, "Do you know how many people with the ninth surname of Zhaowu there are in our eight states?" Three generals from the ninth surname of Zhaowu lowered their heads, a little ashamed. "Let's Huairou first. I have sent people back to Lingzhou to bring some supplies for distribution. If Huairou fails and there is no cure, I have no choice." This is an explanation for the nine surnames of Zhaowu. Moreover, not all the nine Zhaowu surnames in Liuhu Prefecture have become the lackeys of the Turks. However, the reason for this was also the mistake of Tang Dynasty officials. When dealing with ethnic policies, we do not level the bowl of water. Therefore, some tribes were dissatisfied with the Tang Dynasty. Of course, the Tang Dynasty did not protect them, which made them feel disappointed. Some officials even accept bribes, leading to injustice. Except for this accident, the nine surnames of Zhaowu also had major riots in history, and the court spent a lot of effort to suppress them. So give them a chance. "Keeping them will have many uses, and now is not the time to deal with them," Wang Hua finished saying, and sent people to install them. They are conducting careful investigations. There must be a group of tribes who have stayed in Fengzhou for the longest time and have not been sent to Yinshan. ?Problem. Even in the later batches, some tribes had problems. This needs to be explored. Then he called the chiefs of other tribes in Fengzhou. Although he was very dissatisfied with Wang Hua's vague attitude, he was also afraid and took them all with him. Wang Hua asked them to sit down and asked, "I have something to tell you. Can you keep it a secret for me?" "Wang Shilang, we will keep it a secret for you." "That's good," Wang Hua revealed the matter again. . One by one, they were filled with righteous indignation and said: "Shilang Wang, I told you that they are not good people, but you didn't listen." "Shilang Wang, kill them." "Whether you kill them or not, since they are like this, how will I treat them? "Wang Hua said very vaguely, but this sentence made people misunderstand, thinking that Wang Hua would take revenge on them. In fact, Wang Hua did not say how to treat it. But this time when things go wrong, these tribes have to break up again. Otherwise, if they stay together, conflicts will intensify, there will be more hatred, and there will be no way to manage them. "But I have my own plan for how to do it, so I hope you will wait for my good news. And this matter, if used properly, will increase our chances of winning. Again, I am here to rescue you, and you have to save yourself. I I know that many of your soldiers were defeated in the battle with Chang Yuankai, but I tell you that most of them did not die in the battle and are still in the Eight Prefectures. If you perform well this time, not only will these soldiers be returned immediately, but also after the incident. There will be more favorable conditions. Whether your tribe will grow or not will be decided in one fell swoop. " Wang drew a map and drew a line from Xia Yin to the north. ¡°After all, the militia is still needed, otherwise there will be insufficient manpower. Even when the Blood Camp returned from Jishi Mountain, the Turks also sent a large army south to support them, but they were still short of manpower. And now it seems that silent sipping is much harder to chew than imagined. "You go back and think for yourself," After saying that, Wang Hua asked them to step back. Speaking of which, if they didn't send their children to participate in the defensive battle, Wang Hua would have no choice. He began to sit in a chair and look at the map in a daze. Some are difficult to fight. Looking at the map, I basically surrounded Mochu's army from the periphery in the middle. However, the lack of troops and the more dispersed troops allowed Mochu to defeat them one by one with superior strength. The most important thing is that this time he has no reliable source of intelligence. It would be nice if there were a few more Puguqings, he thought to himself. However, he suddenly felt horrified. Among the nine surnames of Zhaowu, Pu Guqing could be born. What if there was also a Pu Guqing among the Shi surnames? "Erlang, what's wrong?" Li Xuejun asked. Wang Hua's face became so embarrassed. This was the first time since the battle. Wang Hua expressed his worries. Li Xuejun said: "It's better for me to go." "No, Nanhetao is too dangerous now." After all the prisoners were taken, they were just one short of killing them all. There was no room for strangers to survive. "Erlang, believe me." The two argued for a long time, and finally Li Xuejun promised Wang Hua that safety came first, and Wang Hua let her leave. He took Li Xuejun to the ferry and watched her get on the boat and sail south. The sun is about to set, a big river is full of blood, and the people on the boat are dressed in white, which is better than the snow. But this small boat carries many expectations, as well as the life and death of countless lives. PS: I¡¯ve done a few chapters to set the stage. I¡¯ve been busy these days, so the writing is a bit rough and the update is very late. Please forgive me. After two days, I recovered again and updated it three times from time to time. []
