Chapter 536: Seize the opportunity(1/2)
Talking about the famous generals from ancient times, the name of Han Xin, the immortal soldier, is a majestic peak.
I had only heard of the name of the Ambush Formation from Ten Sides, but I didn't know what it was. Now that I could see it for the first time, Li Mengxi's horizons were greatly opened.
His eyes swept over the huge map at his feet, and he quickly ran through everything in his mind. Li Mengxi frowned, "Ambush from all sides, such a huge formation, seize the opportunity first, and win every battle is inevitable."
Looking up at Zhang Jiao, Li Mengxi raised his eyebrows and asked seriously, "What is the method to break this formation? If the enemy uses an ambush from all sides, how to deal with it?"
Zhang Jiao smiled and shook his head, "A certain person only knows how to use the formation, but he doesn't know how to break it.
What a hero the overlord of Western Chu was. He was ambushed from all sides and ended up committing suicide in Wujiang River.
Since Han Xin, the Immortal of War, there has never been any strategy to break an ambush from ten sides.
If you say one person can break this formation, I know one person." Zhang Jiao said with a smile.
"Who is this person?" Li Mengxi was extremely curious and looked at Zhang Jiao with wide eyes.
Zhang Jiao looked at the childish-looking Li Mengxi and smiled happily, "That's the young master."
Li Mengxi was stunned for a while.
I thought that the person who could break the House of Flying Daggers would be a powerful character like the Immortal of Nanhua, but Zhang Jiao gave a sudden answer.
After a long while, Li Mengxi's face was full of doubts, "Me? I can break through the ambush formation? How could I not know that I can?"
Li Mengxi felt very much like he had been tricked by Zhang Jiao.
Zhang Jiaoze was extremely serious. He looked directly at Li Mengxi and said solemnly, "As I said before, I see the young master as a man who breaks the army and takes orders. He is responsible for the disaster of the world's soldiers. How can the young master know that he can't break an ambush from all sides? How can you belittle yourself?"
After saying that, Zhang Jiao looked at Li Mengxi with a half-smile.
When Zhang Jiao said this, Li Mengxi, who was not superstitious, actually believed it.
If we say that in these troubled times at the end of the Han Dynasty, who could be ridiculous and proud of the world, who else could it be except those of our generation who have traveled through time?
An ambush from all sides can indeed seize the opportunity. If the enemy ambushes from all sides, all the opportunities and geographical advantages will be lost, making it difficult to resist. How can a disadvantaged enemy break the formation and win? Han Xin, the military immortal, is indeed a
The pinnacle of military strategism.
Of course, Li Mengxi thought arrogantly, he, Han Xin, is a human being, and am I, Mr. Li, also a human being?
Is there really a perfect formation with no flaws in the world? No.
It is inevitable that there will be flaws in the formation, and there must be a way to break it if there is an ambush from all sides. Even if the opportunity is lost and the enemy is heavily surrounded, there is still a way to counter-win, but I have not found it yet.
Once his mentality changed, Li Mengxi immediately gained enough confidence.
His eyes scanned the map again, down to his feet, looking for the starting point of the confrontation between the enemy and us.
The enemy and we are now facing each other...southwest of Julu.
Li Mengxi took the starting point of the confrontation between the two armies as the starting point and spread it to the south and east and west, thinking about the possible enemy forces and possible countermeasures in three or two days.
After a long time, Li Mengxi frowned. He raised his head and looked at Zhang Jiao, "If the officers and soldiers move east, west, north and south, they will be able to flee all over the country in all directions, and the war will be delayed for a long time. Now our army cannot maintain food and grass for a long time.
Unfavorable for a long time.
I thought, if ambush is useful, why do we need to ambush on ten sides? Encirclement is useful, but why do we need to ambush on all sides?"
Li Mengxi suddenly raised his head, looked at Zhang Jiao, and said solemnly, "There is no need to ambush from all sides. One only needs to ambush one side - ambush in the east. If one is allowed to go east, Huangfu Song can only go east. If one is allowed to go east, he can only go east. If one is allowed to go east, he can't."
If he runs away, he can't run around!"
Li Mengxi said domineeringly.
Zhang Jiao looked at the energetic young man in front of him and suddenly smiled.
Zhang Jiao said that there might be flaws in the ambush formation from ten sides, and that the method to break the formation must come from Li Mengxi's hand. This was just a compliment.
But I never thought that Li Mengxi really had an extraordinary aura. "If ambush is useful, why bother to ambush on ten sides? If encirclement is useful, why bother to surround on all sides." This sentence made Zhang Jiao feel that it seemed right.
... If one battle can determine the outcome, why do you need a series of extraordinary victories? If the ambush is strong, one ambush is enough to defeat the enemy, so why do you need multiple ambush on ten sides?
Zhang Jiao was almost convinced by Li Mengxi. For a moment, Zhang Jiao almost felt that the ambush formation from all sides was too complicated and useless.
But soon, Zhang Jiao laughed at himself. The art of war is difficult and subtle, and ambush from all sides must make sense. It's just that he didn't know enough about it, so he couldn't fully understand its secrets.
but.
Zhang Jiao looked at the young boy in front of him and sighed in his heart, given time, the profound essence of House of Flying Daggers will be reproduced in the hands of this young man.
——
Li Mengxi, who had been busy all night and had not slept at all, had already obtained the map of Julu County, and also knew the layout of the ambush on all sides that would intimidate the army during the march. Li Mengxi said goodbye to Zhang Jiao and took all the maps back to camp.
.
They had been waiting for almost a whole night, and one hour later, it was almost dawn. Liu, Guan, and Zhang, who had been waiting all night, finally waited for Li Mengxi to come back.
When Li Mengxi came back, he was followed by a yellow scarf warrior, holding many pieces of cloth in his arms.
In the large tent of the Chinese army, Li Mengxi spread all the cloths on the ground, stacking them up one by one. The cloth covered the open space in the tent.
Liu, Guan, and Zhang looked at the huge map with vertical and horizontal lines on the ground and extremely clear and complex standards. The three of them were surprised and looked at Li Mengxi in unison.
"Why is this?" Liu Bei asked.
Li Mengxi put his hands behind his back, raised his chest and raised his head, and said in a deep and powerful voice, "This is an ambush formation from all sides."
What an ambush from ten sides. "Ambush from ten sides" is placed in the vast sea of allusions. It can and can only be the method used by Han Xin, the military immortal, to defeat the overlord Xiang Yu during the conflict between Chu and Han. As long as you are familiar with the history books, you will not
You will not know that there are ambushes from all sides.
Liu, Guan, and Zhang are people who have read history books. How could they not know about the ambush formation from all sides?
Seeing that Liu, Guan, and Zhang were all interested in asking questions, Li Mengxi thought for a while and explained the complicated ambush tactics to Liu Bei and Liu Bei as simply as possible.
“This method of warfare is the essence of knowing oneself and the enemy, and being able to fight a hundred battles without danger.
Our army can fully understand the terrain of mountains and rivers, the accessibility of roads, and the location of houses, so that we can make the most of the advantages of the terrain and make the most of the dangers of the terrain.
Knowing the dangerous terrain and key traffic points, you can seize them first and take advantage of them.
If you know yourself and the enemy, you can fight a hundred battles without losing; if you seize every opportunity, you can win a hundred battles."
"I dare to ask you three, what is the most difficult thing in military warfare?
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Is victory the most difficult?
No, although it is difficult to win, it is most difficult to win and annihilate all the enemies.
Think about the conflict between Chu and Han. Before the ambush from ten sides, the overlord Xiang Yu had tens of thousands of soldiers and horses. However, in the ambush from ten sides, there was a wild battle. Xiang Yu only survived with his body, and the rest of the troops were wiped out.
If you think about it carefully, in one battle, tens of thousands of Xiang Yu were annihilated, and no one in the Chu army was left alive, and no one could escape. This is extremely scary to think about.
Except for the Warring States Period when Qin and Zhao fought against Changping, Bai Qi wiped out 300,000 Zhao troops, and the rest also annihilated tens of thousands in field battles, but not a single enemy rider escaped?"
"The formation of ambush from ten sides is an ambush, an encirclement, and even more of an annihilation formation.
If our army can form an ambush from ten sides, why should we fear that Huangfu Song will fight with me, or that Huangfu Song's remnant soldiers will escape? Surrounded from ten sides, the forest is like a net, and they will rush eastward and westward, and scatter in all directions.
If you are frightened and run away, neither one person nor one horse can escape."
Liu, Guan, and Zhang all looked surprised after hearing this.
Han Xin's famous name is like thunder piercing his ears.
The ambush formation bound to Han Xin is even more prestigious.
Just Liu Bei and Zhang Fei, the relationship between these two formations is somewhat lacking, and ordinary formations cannot be fully understood, let alone the extremely advanced, complex and subtle Ambush Formation from Ten Sides.
As for Guan Yu, although Guan Yu is familiar with military books and is familiar with formation strategies, Guan Yu knows ordinary formation strategies, and only knows about the formation of ambush from ten sides, but does not know its details. Guan Yu even believes that the formation of ambush from ten sides is probably lost.
Already.
I don't think it is possible to have such a magical formation, and the person who understands the formation is right in front of me.
Guan Yu looked at Li Mengxi with brilliant eyes.
Liu Bei and Zhang Fei were also shocked by the name of Ambush from Flying Daggers, and looked at Li Mengxi intently.
Li Mengxi didn't care what Liu Bei and the other three thought, he kept thinking and said, "Although the method of ambush from ten sides can be used, it is useless against our army.
Why?
What happens is easy.
When Han Xin was ambushing from all sides, the Han army had sufficient food and grass and had surrounded the Chu army. Even if Han Xin did not attack, he could only slowly attack and hold on for more than a month, which would also kill the Chu army.
However, our army's food and fodder cannot last long. If we use an ambush from all sides, we can gain momentum, but over time, our army's food and fodder will not be enough. At that time, we will have an ambush from all sides, and there is no need for the officers and soldiers to rush into the formation.
For several days, the formation was ambushed from all sides and collapsed without attacking."
"I think that if the ambush formation on all sides is used, our troops may not need to be more than the enemy's, but our food and grass are heavy, so we must outnumber the enemy's.
Otherwise, an ambush on all sides is an encirclement and ambush formation. It is good at holding a stalemate and resisting, rather than combining forces to fight decisively and quickly. If the weight of the troops is not as heavy as that of the enemy, an ambush on all sides will be formed. If the enemy does not move and holds the ground, then our side will
The danger from ten sides turns into a constraint.
If the enemy cannot move, my ambush will be useless.
If we maintain a stalemate, we will be short of food and grass, and we will collapse in the long run.
By this time, our army will either retreat or attack, one of which will happen.
To be continued...
