Chapter 837 Li Xiaoyi's Purpose
Chapter 837 Li Xiaoyi's Purpose
Daleha also knew the news that Li Kaigu had annihilated 50,000 troops of the Zuo Yingyang Guard in the valley southwest of Fuzhou.
However, the route of Li Kaigu's army had been blocked. Tens of thousands of troops in Fuzhou did not dare to advance even a single step, fearing that after rushing in, they would be chased and killed by the two armies.
It can be said that under the defense of an army of 150,000, Li Kaigu had no power to advance.
But at this time, Li Xiaoyi took the initiative to divide his troops and defend.
It seemed that Li Xiaoyi's 100,000-man army was defending more ground, but in reality, its strength was much more dispersed. If they were defeated one by one, Li Xiaoyi would die miserably.
After all, he was a famous general. It was impossible for Li Xiaoyi to be so stupid!
Dalha, Zhang Renyuan and Fang Zhe stared at the map for a while, and Dalha's pupils suddenly constricted.
"wrong!"
"wrong!"
"Tingzhou!"
Daleha was horrified.
"Li Xiaoyi ordered his troops to be stationed on the border between Tingzhou and Jianzhou. His purpose was not just to guard against attacks from Tingzhou!"
"He's going to take the initiative!"
Zhang Renyuan was stunned for a moment and still didn't understand, but when he looked in the direction of Daleha's finger, he immediately understood!
Li Kaigu, the commander of the left and right Yuqian guards, is in Fuzhou. Fuzhou is adjacent to the sea on one side, and borders Wenzhou, Jianzhou, Tingzhou and Quanzhou on the other three sides!
Yang Dacheng blocked Li Kaigu's way to Wenzhou in the north, and Li Xiaoyi blocked Li Kaigu's way to the west. Now Li Xiaoyi divided his troops into three battalions and stationed a large army near the border of Tingzhou and Jianzhou, which may block Li Kaigu's way to escape to the southwest at any time.
Li Xiaoyi divided his troops into three battalions. Except for the battalion that faced the 200,000-strong army, the other two battalions could block Li Kaigu in Fuzhou at any time.
As for whether Li Kaigu could immediately go south to Quanzhou, go to Zhangzhou, enter Chaozhou, pass Xunzhou, and finally return to Yuzhou safely after he reacted, Zhang Renyuan really couldn't guarantee it.
"In other words, Li Xiaoyi wants to rely on his 30,000 troops to block our path, and then use his 70,000 troops plus Yang Dacheng's 50,000 to wipe out Li Kaigu's tens of thousands of men?"
Fang Zhe, who was the slowest to react, blurted out.
The situation was serious enough that even he could react.
Until now, he had to admit that this former Turkic marshal who looked exactly like him was simply too powerful.
What he and Zhang Renyuan hadn't been able to figure out for a whole day and a half, Daleha was able to analyze immediately after listening to the battle situation and taking a look at the map.
What bullshit about defending three places and forming a pincer attack, it's all bullshit!
These soldiers have really dirty hearts!
"Li Xiaoyi is a famous general, but I'm afraid..."
Daleha frowned.
If he were Li Xiaoyi, when he made this plan, he would immediately contact Yang Dacheng, send civilians to pretend to be soldiers to set up camp, and then leave a small number of soldiers to garrison, and the rest would immediately go to Fuzhou.
As long as they find Li Kaigu's army, relying on the elite strength of the Left and Right Eagle Guard armies, it will not be difficult to wipe out Li Kaigu's tens of thousands of troops at all costs.
Even if Li Xiaoyi was prepared to inflict heavy damage on Li Kaigu's army at a small cost, he would probably have killed many people by now.
"That's too late!"
"Li Xiaoyi must know that speed is of the essence in war. Now there is only one way to stop the loss in time."
"I also ask the two generals to prepare immediately and send tens of thousands of troops to attack Li Xiaoyi's camp."
"At the same time, send cavalry across Jianzhou to Tingzhou, and then into Fuzhou and Quanzhou to search for Li Kaigu."
"If Li Kaigu's army is attacked, assist them. If Li Kaigu's army has been defeated, do your best to preserve it."
"At the same time, send scouts to Li Xiaoyi's other two camps to see how many soldiers are defending them. Be sure to report truthfully."
Daleha rubbed his temple.
He had a headache.
As soon as you get here, you face hell.
Originally, it was an army of 300,000 facing an army of 150,000, but now it might become an army of 200,000 against an army of 150,000.
He was really in a hurry.
Zhang Renyuan and Fang Zhe immediately went out to deploy troops and act according to Daleha's orders.
……
Outside Min County, Fuzhou, the camp of Youyuqianwei was brightly lit, with soldiers patrolling back and forth.
Outside the camp, deer horns were arranged neatly, horse traps were built one after another, and scouts were galloping everywhere to prevent sudden attacks from the enemy.
But tonight is very strange, very quiet, unspeakably quiet.
Gao Xiaosong, the commander of the front camp of Youyuqin Guard, sat in the barracks, unable to fall asleep for a while. He sighed for a long time and said:
"I'm only thirty, why am I having trouble sleeping?"
A few miles outside the front camp, a rider on a white horse stood among the mountains and forests. From this angle, the knight on horseback could see Gao Xiaosong's military camp.
He laughed like a night owl.
"Li Kaigu's army is full of incompetents!"
"Everyone, look here. This military camp may seem flawless, but in reality, it already has countless hidden dangers."
"First of all, there is only one entrance, and the entrance is the exit. There is no way out. If I block the entrance, it will be extremely difficult for them to escape."
"Secondly, a military camp of three to four thousand men would be too easy to wipe out, but the commander was so arrogant that he didn't even discover the situation until all the scouts he sent out returned."
Beside him, more than a dozen generals were riding on horses, laughing at Gao Xiaosong, the commander of the front camp.
Yang Dacheng, the general of the Right Eagle Guard, held the sword at his waist, looked at Gao Xiaosong's camp, and nodded silently.
He looks like a capable person, but in fact he is a fool.
Such a person is definitely not able to command the three armies, otherwise he will inevitably drag down the three armies.
"General, we are gathered here with the goal of completely defeating Li Kaigu's army. I wonder if you can tell me everything?"
Yang Dacheng withdrew his gaze, turned to Li Xiaoyi, and asked the question he wanted to ask most.
After he arrived in Wenzhou, he was immediately invited by Li Xiaoyi to come and wipe out Li Kaigu's entire army.
But Li Xiaoyi never said how to do it specifically. Even after he came to Fuzhou, Li Xiaoyi still didn't say it. Now he can't hold it in anymore.
He had to ask.
Li Xiaoyi looked out at Gao Xiaosong's camp and explained to Yang Dacheng:
"It's simple. When the hour of Hai arrives, our men will attack Li Kaigu's military camps in Min County, Changxi, Changle, and Gutian."
"Our battle time is two hours. At about 2:30 pm, all troops must break camp immediately and head for Li Kaigu's main camp in Yongtai."
"I've calculated that there are less than 20,000 troops in the four military camps of Minxian, Changxi, Changle, and Gutian."
"Li Kaigu's main camp has over 50,000 men. They are the toughest nut to crack, and we only have 120,000 troops. So, I plan to use the simplest method."
"As for how to fight, I'll tell you this once. You were the main force in the attack on Li Kaigu's camp, and you made the greatest contribution. So you must listen carefully and seriously."
