"Zong Zheng means to bring them to our side?" Chen Xi asked.
"When something like this happened, it was obvious that it was time to take sides. When I was in Youzhou, many Hu people admired the Central Plains culture. But to be honest, among them, the only ones I was relieved about were Su Buyan and Wang Jian of Fuyu. "Liu Yu is not a fool. Although he treats the Hu people with gentleness, he can still tell which clan he belongs to.
"And I personally came to Youzhou to give Su Buyan and Jian the confidence to take the throne." Liu Yu sighed and said, "After all, they have more than 400,000 people in total. Once they follow the Northern Huns, they will disappear." He¡¯s not good for us.¡±
"That's true." Chen Xi nodded. Given the current situation, if the Hu people among the Han and Huns turned to the Huns, it would indeed be a trouble for the Han Dynasty.
"Has Marquis Chen ever had any plans?" Liu Yu was quite polite to Chen Xi, and did not act like he was relying on his elders.
"I know the latest map north of Liaodong better than the Xiongnu. My original plan was to use the power of the family to explore the northeastern plains, and at the same time call the elites of the family to obtain accurate maps of the north in advance, so that I could move west from the north of Liaodong and sweep away the Huns. Let¡¯s make preparations in the royal court.¡± Chen Xi didn¡¯t try to hide it in front of Liu Yu.
Of course, Chen Xi did not say that the reason he asked Yuan Shu to lead a large number of elites from aristocratic families to go north to explore the Northeast Plains and spend several months to draw an accurate map of that place was to prepare for the cleanup of the Yuan family and the Northern Huns.
Originally, in Chen Xi's impression, the Northern Huns came south from Bingzhou, so Chen Xi's initial idea was to clarify this fact himself and inspire the Central Plains to collectively attack the Xiongnu, and then rely on the map obtained in advance to go northeast and go around to the rear of the Northern Huns. , do what you did when you were the champion.
According to Chen Xi's estimation at the time, attacking the empty rear of the Northern Huns would bring about quick results, and it would also quickly bring an end to the anxious war ahead. Afterwards, a flanking attack from both sides would basically guarantee the complete end of the three hundred-year-old war between the Han and the Huns. .
"However, there have been a lot of things that go against people's wishes recently, but fortunately it's not too bad. The most accurate map of the Northeast Plains is now in Chen Xi's hands. Chen Xi is not worried about the geographical location.
And according to Chen Xi's estimation, if the Northern Huns are not stupid, it is very likely that the tribe members of the Northern Xiongnu are roaming in the Northeast Plains, because that place has fertile water and grass, luxuriant animals and plants, and is easy to defend. If the Northern Xiongnu is not stupid, Xia Tian chooses It's almost a given there.
In this way, the Central Plains people who obtained the map first had an advantage in terms of terrain compared with the Northern Huns who had not returned for hundreds of years and finally returned this year.
This is why Chen Xi said that the situation is not too bad. After all, as long as they set foot on the Northeast Plain, they still have some advantages. The problem is that if they can set foot on it, the place where the Northern Xiongnu and the Han Dynasty clashed has some intention of blocking the north and the south. inside.
As for the sea, Zhou Yu spent a lot of energy just to land. After suffering countless losses, the Northern Xiongnu completely learned to defend strictly.
Therefore, Chen Xi did not focus on Zhou Yu from the beginning. There was only one possibility to easily defeat the Northern Huns, and that was the method of Xingwei Huo. Simply put, it was to hold the main force of the Huns head-on, and then send a group of people to attack the Huns. The rear can kill vigorously.
??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? The main force, had to be distracted, had to be distracted, and then they were seized the opportunity and exploded directly.
The problem is that this time the Northern Huns' defense is very strong, and it is difficult to bypass the main force of the Northern Xiongnu in front. The only possible way to bypass it is the road Ma Chao took to Mobei to attack the Xianbei Royal Court.
The problem is that there are still Qiang people who can guide the road to the Xianbei Royal Court. After passing that place and entering the grassland north of Youzhou, Chen Xi does not have a map, let alone the Qiang people and Ma Chao.
In addition, if Chen Xi¡¯s prediction is correct, the Northern Xiongnu must have emptied the territory of Dong Xianbei. Even if Ma Chao and others have the map, it is estimated that unless they are able to eat soil to maintain combat effectiveness, they will only starve to death.
The Northern Xiongnu were trying to consolidate and clear the country on the prairie. Even a genius tactician like Huo Qubing had no choice but to starve to death, let alone others.
In short, after Chen Xi obtained the general situation of the Northern Huns, he was a lot more cautious about the Northern Huns' southward march this time. The abilities displayed by the Northern Huns this time were not only their usual bravery, but actually more of their brains.
In Chen Xi¡¯s view, the Northern Huns basically blocked all possible causes of failure at the layout level, leaving only one path, which was tactical collision, or direct head-on confrontation.
Liu Yu is not an idiot. When he heard Chen Xi's words, he knew what Chen Xi was paying attention to. This plan can only be regarded as an ordinary plan that blooms on the tree. The only great thing is that Chen Xi has already obtained the map in advance.
¡°No matter how cliche it is,A strategy is a good strategy as long as it works. "Liu Yu is very sincere.
"Originally, I was still thinking about having a fight with the Northern Huns near Ru River to attract the opponent's attention. Now it's easier. However, according to the current situation, the Northern Huns' defenses are in place. I'm afraid I just took action and the result was It¡¯s not as good as I thought it would be,¡± Chen Xi said with a sigh.
To be honest, when the number of combatants increases to hundreds of thousands, the existence value of counselors is more to create fighter opportunities. The decisive factors have become organizational strength, soldier quality, commander's dispatch and logistics.
Chen Xi¡¯s original idea was to create a decisive victory, but based on what he knows now, the degree of preparedness of the Northern Huns is somewhat unexpected. However, it is right to think about it. Chen Xi did not expect the Northern Huns to fight in the Battle of Youzhou.
To be precise, what Chen Xi added at the beginning were all decisive means for the Northern Huns to fight the battle to merge the states. Unfortunately, after the battlefield was moved, these means were somewhat useless.
But it is necessary to be prepared, otherwise if the Northern Huns suddenly move south, Chen Xi's current situation may be even worse than Jia Xu's now.
Now Chen Xi can at least grasp the context of the current battle situation and can predict a few moves like a chess player. However, Jia Xu and others who are currently facing the Xiongnu in the north do not have much opportunity to look forward at the strategic level in a short period of time.
Including Chen Gong, everyone must make some adjustments in order to coordinate the situation from an overall level. After all, the situation of the Northern Xiongnu has not been fully understood. How can we talk about fighting for the male and female of the world? I am afraid that at this time, 90% of the civil and military forces in the world are aiming to fight first. The length of time.
After all, when the overall situation is not revealed, all the victories are foreshadowing the general trend of the subsequent war situation.
In the first battle where the Han and Hungarians raise their flags, no matter who loses or wins, it will have a great impact on the subsequent situation. Regardless of the strategic level of the two sides, the level of tactics in this battle will greatly affect the future of the Han and Hungarian sides. situation. To be continued^
