Zhou Yu looked at the edge of the Liaodong Peninsula with a depressed expression. He had to admit that the method used by the Huns was stupid, but the effect was very good.
All the ports that can be docked are all fortified so that it is difficult for you to land even if you dock. In other places where it is difficult to dock, some troops are stationed here and there, mainly for surveillance. This is really too much. Disgusting.
"It seems that we need to find another place. It seems that it is not easy to land here." Zhou Yu said with a depressed expression. The barbarians in the Liaodong Peninsula were very well guarded.
"I have sent a ship to the north to investigate before." Li Yan also said with a headache. The tightness of the Huns' defense was really unexpected.
"How?" Although Zhou Yu asked this, he actually already had a guess. This arrangement would either leave a place for them to land, or the defense would be no less than here. This has two results. Of course, with the current Xiongnu Zhou Yu prefers the first type of intelligence.
"It's basically no different from the level of defense here, but I think if we continue to the north, the opponent's defense will be much weaker. After all, their strength has limits." Li Yan thought for a while and expressed his judgment.
"Have you seen the beacon tower?" Zhou Yu turned his head and said helplessly to Li Yan.
"Uh, I've seen it before." Li Yan nodded and said.
"As long as the Northern Huns are not stupid, they will definitely use this method. As for the people stationed at the beacon tower, the old, weak, sick and disabled of the Hu people can also be used. They mainly need to defend a few points." Zhou Yu shrugged and said, "Continue Go and investigate. If the Huns are not stupid, they will definitely leave a port for us to land. There is no way to prevent thieves for a thousand days. "
Li Yan was extremely embarrassed. What Zhou Yu said did make sense.
After Zhou Yu sent Li Yan, Wenpin, and Cheng Pu out to look for a ferry, about two days later Cheng Pu sent someone to report that they had found a place where they could land.
Zhou Yu naturally sent a letter to Li Yan and Wenpin asking them to return, and he led all the soldiers and the private soldiers of the family who followed him towards the place where Cheng Pu said.
Although Cheng Pu said that he discovered a ferry by accident and had sent people to investigate it. He said that the ferry was very secret and it would take an hour for the nearest barbarians to arrive, but Zhou Yu knew very well that it was so consistent. His request must be a way for the Hu people to stay here deliberately and prepare to complete the battle.
After all, it is impossible for the Hu people to focus on shore defense all the time. If Zhou Yu keeps turning left and right, constantly testing, even if there is no flaw in the first place, it will be discovered by Zhou Yu sooner or later.
Instead of doing this, it is better to lay out a seemingly shortcut way early, so that the originally invincible opponent suddenly discovers the loophole after tossing and tossing, and naturally thinks that he has tossed the opponent to the point where he has already ignored his head. .
It can be said that once the time comes when you think that the loophole was created by yourself, but do not realize that the loophole was left by the other party, then those who take this path will definitely die.
This is just like Pang Tong in the novel. He suppressed the opponent and accidentally found a small road. He thought he found it. He never thought that it was left intentionally by others. Therefore, Pang Tong died. If you are prepared to attack but not prepared, victory or defeat will usually come in an instant.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, the Huns are quite intelligent." Zhou Yu curled his lips and said, "Okay, let's have a good meal tomorrow morning, and we'll attack from here."
Zhou Yu's calmness made Li Yan hesitate. He felt that landing from here was a trap. By the way, Li Yan felt that he was definitely the second most intelligent among this group of people, so he gave Zhou Yu some advice, "General Zhou, the Northern Huns With such tight defenses in Liaodong, how could such a loophole be left?"
Cheng Pu blew his beard and stared at Li Yan, "Fangzheng has never heard of Bai Mi Yi Shu? Besides, the three of us searched all the way. It took us two full days to find such a place. The Northern Huns came not long before us. With so many fortifications still to be built, it¡¯s normal for one or two loopholes to appear.¡±
"This defensive loophole itself was left by the Northern Huns, I know it." Zhou Yu stopped cutting meat, looked up at the two people and said calmly, both of them were choked to death in an instant.
Li Yan opened his mouth and looked at Zhou Yu, "What's going on? You know this is a trap dug by the Northern Huns, but you still jump."
As for Cheng Pu, Cheng Pu will definitely be dissatisfied with what Li Yan said.?But when Zhou Yu said this, Cheng Pu had to think about it. Zhou Yu is basically a typical example of what he says.
"You're surprised that I know this loophole was left by the Northern Huns, so why would I still come here?" Zhou Yu said casually, and Li Yan nodded. Who in the right mind would jump in even though he knew it was a trap?
"It's too troublesome to go anywhere else, and" Zhou Yu said with a twitching corner of his mouth.
The main reason was that Zhou Yu had the intuition that he had not been with Sun Ce for such a long time, and that Sun Ce was probably trying to commit suicide again, so he decided to resolve the matter quickly. This would save him from too much trouble and no way to resolve it, and no one would care about Sun Ce or anything like that. Situation, you dare think.
Anyway, the Northern Huns and so on, the troops invested in the Liaodong Peninsula cannot exceed 30,000, and the Northern Xiongnu headquarters cannot invest more than 5,000. In this case, let's play a weird chess game with the Northern Xiongnu, and directly overturn the chessboard and smash it in the opponent's face. never mind.
Zhou Yu didn't believe it. He rowed all the way over and didn't conduct any tests with the enemies of the Liaodong Peninsula. He just looked for a loophole left by the Northern Huns. After finding it, he jumped into the battlefield prepared by the Northern Huns. He only had so little time to prepare, and there was still no time to prepare. Any sign, could the Northern Huns gather all their forces here?
To be precise, there is nothing wrong with the arrangement of the Northern Huns. To be fair, anyone who leads the army must test it out first. After determining that it is difficult to capture, the top wise men will use their own methods to create loopholes, and then "create" this thing that Cheng Pu found. loopholes.
Afterwards, facing the loophole, each wise man showed different judgments. The confident person like Pang Tong would definitely lead his army in, and he might lose his troops. The cautious person like Zhuge Liang would definitely continue to test and then find another loophole
As for Zhou Yu's situation, which is completely outside the specifications. Whoever asked Sun Ce to commit suicide all day long, Zhou Yu basically couldn't play his cards according to common sense. For Zhou Yu, this kind of arrangement by the Xiongnu was just giving away people's lives, and he didn't think of using it when he came. You can't afford to hurt Zhou Yu in a normal way!
