Chapter 76 Strategies

"Jiasufang" decided to resolutely not talk about peace and swear to fight the Jin army to the end. Then the remaining thing is how to fight against the Jin army and how to deal with the Jin army's massive move south. So in the "Zhenshuiting", the Left Chief of the Shangshu Li Gang first said: "Huaidian and Jingxiang are the shields of the southeast. The reason why the Six Dynasties could protect Jiangzuo was that they were strong and powerful in Huainan and Jingxiang were all in Huainan and Jingxiang... Now the court wants to be a garrison, so they should set up three generals in the east, west and Jingxiang, and station heavy troops to approach them. The east route is Yangzhou, the west route is Luzhou, and Jingxiang is Xiangyang as the commander's mansion... For example, the east route is Yangzhou, the west route is Luzhou, and the west route is Xiangyang.

He gave it to the Jiangdong Road, and the Jiangxi Road, and the Jiangxi Road, and the Jingxiang Road, and the Beijing Road, and the Hunan North Road. Xu discussed the land and asked himself to support the enemy, and the general sent troops to support him and could defend himself. The business and traveler must be connected, so he could summon people to return to his business and gradually repair it. With the years, the barriers were formed. There were barriers in front and the Yangtze River were dangerous, and the warships and naval forces were added to the generals along the river, and the commanders were connected to the county, and the upper and lower levels were connected to defend themselves. However, even though there were many thieves and horses, how could they dare to invade lightly in recent years, the generals held heavy troops in the south of the Yangtze River, and the generals guarded the empty city in the north of the Yangtze River. Although there were natural dangers, there was no warships and naval forces at first, so the enemy was able to invade and spy on it."

Li Gang's strategic intention, simply put, was to select key locations in Lianghuai and arrange defenses and gather heavy troops along the Yangtze River. This not only ensures the safety of key locations in Lianghuai and saves mobile forces and supports dangerous places at any time.

However, Li Gang's strategy is relatively rough and passive. He defended several important cities to almost be beaten passively.

"Since ancient times, we must first strengthen the Huai River." Xu Han also said: "With Huai River, there will be a river, and if there is a Huai River, there will be a river. If there is a Huai River, there will be a river. If there is a Huai River, there will be a river. The two Huai Rivers are thousands of miles away, and they protect the river. If there is no loss, it is not possible to lose it."

Xu Han was named Songlao, and was from Xiangyi, Gongzhou. He passed the imperial examination in the third year of Yuanyou. Later, Xu Han served as a senior official, including a Hanlin scholar, a Censor, and a Bachelor of the Zizheng Hall. Xu Han was upright and served in three dynasties. Because of his disagreement with treacherous ministers such as Wang Fu, Cai You, and was repeatedly accused of being dismissed from office.

When Zhong Shidao was removed from military power, Xu Han once advised the court, but was rejected by the court. However, Xu Han also made a common problem of literati commanding in the Taiyuan Battle, which caused Zhong Shi to be defeated and died. No one was perfect. Although Xu Han made such a fatal mistake, Li Sanjian still used him, not for anything else, just for his integrity. Moreover, there was more than Xu Han who commanded in the random order at that time. Isn’t that the Song Emperor Zhao Huan the same? Zhao Huan was the main and Xu Han and others were the auxiliary.

Li Sanjian tapped the desk with his left finger, held his forehead with his right hand, and thought carefully about Li Gang and Xu Han's words.

If you want to protect the river, you must first protect the Huai River. If the Huai River is in the river, the Huai River is in the river. The thoughts of Li Gang and Xu Han are also the thoughts of most people. Even Li Sanjian also thought so, but Li Sanjian always felt something was wrong, but for a moment, he couldn't remember it.

"It's wrong!" After a while, Yao Yu spoke up and said, "Build a city to defend the Huai River and the river. At that time, I'm afraid I'll throw the river and the river again."

"Oh, Yao Shuxing means abandoning Huai and protecting the river?" Li Gang asked after hearing this.

"When did you say you wanted to abandon Huai and protect the river?" Yao Yu asked back.

"Build a city and defend it to the end, protecting the Huai and the Jiang River. Didn't you say this? Could it be that I?" Li Gang asked glaring at Yao Yu.

"You are still a Grand Secretary. Do you not understand the meaning of this sentence?" Yao Yu said angrily when he heard this.

When they were young, they didn't deal with each other. When they were together, they often had disputes, even when they were old. Unexpectedly, when they were middle-aged, they were still like

this.





"Hey, Bo Ji, please let Shuxing finish his words first." Li Sanjian often used a mixed solution to his two arms of the civil and military.

Li Gang had to sit back when he heard this, took a big sip of tea, and couldn't help but cough twice violently.

"Prime Minister..." Li Gang retreated, and Yao Yu said, "What Li Zuo Cheng said about building a city and defending the city is not opposed, but the city defense should be done. Today's plan should be considered by the ancients' words of the people and the plan of the military confidants. What the prime minister said just now is that the enemy is weak and we are strong, which means national strength. Our Song Dynasty is stronger than Jin, which is undoubtedly a strong military strength. However, the national strength is not a strong military strength. Since the Xuanhe period, our dynasty has been defeated repeatedly in foreign wars, and even in Jin wars, and he has almost never won. Occasionally, killing a few Jin people, or even hundreds or thousands of Jin people is not called victory, but to slightly defeat the thief's power."

After taking a sip of tea, Yao Yu continued, "At present, most of our army in the Song Dynasty are afraid of the enemy like tigers. When they heard the Jin army coming, they fled and broke into a thousand miles. Yao thought that our Song Dynasty was not afraid of the enemy's army at present, but only our Black Flag Army and the soldiers who could fight were the tens of thousands of soldiers in the Song Dynasty's Black Flag Army."

"Taiwei Yao, can't you say so absolutely?" Zhang Jun retorted after hearing this: "Hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses under the command of the old minister Zong Ze, and even more, as well as tens of thousands of soldiers and horses under the command of the Zhang Office, and the northwest army. Are they all the troops that are afraid of war and cannot fight?"

Zhang Jun, whose courtesy name was Deyuan, was named Jinshi during the Zhenghe period of Song Dynasty.

Zhang Jun and Li Gang are extremely inconsistent. They used to impeach Li Gang frequently, but in most cases it was due to political disagreements.

"According to my opinion, they are all mobs, and they are more likely to protect themselves and less enterprising." Yao Yu pondered for a moment, shook his head and said.

Yao Yu was quite kind to speak.

At this time, Tokyo was left behind, and there were many soldiers under the command of the Kaifeng Prefecture Chief Zongze, but most of them were thieves from Jingxi, Jingdong and other places, such as Wang Shan, Wang Zaixing, Li Gui, Wang Dalang, etc., who had been recruited by Zongze, and the number was also large. However, these people were almost half-army, half-people, half-army and half-thieves. Many of them were even ordinary people. It was a dream to completely defeat the Jin army by these people and achieve a great victory.

The situation under Zhang, the commander of Yingtian Prefecture, was worse than that of Zong Ze. Most of his commands were the Song army, which was already frightened. The Western Army of the Song Dynasty was able to fight, but the people who were used to fighting were almost all of them before and after Jingkang, and those who died, surrendered, and fled. Therefore, among all the soldiers and horses in the Song Dynasty, there was really only the elite army of the Black Flag Army.

"You..." Yao Yu was so arrogant, Zhang Jun wanted to scold him a few words, but after looking at Li Sanjian, he held the words back into his stomach.

The Black Flag Army was Li Sanjian, and Li Sanjian was the Black Flag Army. Yao Yu was Li Sanjian's confidant general. So scolding Yao Yu and the Black Flag Army was to scold Li Sanjian.

"Shuxing should not underestimate the people of the world." Li Sanjian smiled slightly and said to Yao Yu: "You continue."

"At present, the imperial court seems to have many soldiers, but in fact there are not many soldiers who can fight. Therefore, I think we should shrink our troops, focus on defense, and wait for the enemy to be tired, and then counterattack." Yao Yu continued to hear this: "The two Huai Rivers are thousands of miles long, like a bow. If the enemy cavalry comes south, moves eastward, and goes westward, and I have no soldiers. If we divide it, the Jin army will be connected eastward, like walking on a bowstring, without any scruples or worry. If we lead the army to separate the eastward, then the Jin army will be connected eastward, like walking on a bowstring, without any scruples or worries. If we lead the army to separate the eastward, then the Jin army will be connected eastward, like walking on a bowstring, without any scruples or worries. If we lead the army to separate the eastward, then the Jin army will be connected eastward.

The soldiers in Huaidong cannot save Huaixi, and the soldiers in Huaixi cannot respond to Huaidong. The Jin army cannot look at each other from east to west. If the Jin army comes from Huaibei, it will be like a bow on the back, with its long roads and a thousand miles away, and its momentum will not be connected. In this way, the Jin army enters our important land and divides it into two, and it will be defeated. The Prime Minister said that "The Art of War" of Sun Tzu, so those who are good at using troops are like "straight". Those who are the snakes of Changshan. When they hit the head, the tail will arrive, and when they hit the tail, the head will arrive, and when they hit the inside, the head and the tail will arrive. Now, in terms of the terrain of the two Huai Rivers, Huaidong is the head, Huaixi is the tail, and Huaizhong is the body. Our army can develop accordingly and follow the three directions to resist the enemy army.







Yao Yu's tactics are exactly the opposite of Li Gang and Xu Han.

Li Gang and Xu Han were mainly defending the city with mobile forces as the supplement, to resist the Jin army's cavalry going south, while Yao Yu was mainly mobile forces as the main force, and adopted large-scale corps mobile operations to fight, and the defense of the city fell second.

However, the key to Yao Yu's tactics is the word "motor". The people present at "Zhenshuiting" are all knowledgeable people, so someone soon discovered the key or flaws. So Zhang Kan thought about it and asked Yao Yu: "The first method of the snake in Changshan is the word "motor". If it hits the head, the tail will come, and if the tail does not reach, it will be defeated. Moreover, the cavalry of the enemy army is far better than our army. The countless cavalry are the number or cavalry. Therefore, in terms of maneuver power, our army is far inferior to the enemy army. What if it does?"

The Jin army's cavalry is far superior to the Song army in terms of its number and its elite level. There is no doubt that the Song army is mobile, head, body, and tail to cooperate with each other, and can't fight together. Can't the Jin army? The Jin army's cavalry can defeat it and attack quickly. If it cannot be defeated, it will turn around and escape. It is like the wind, and the Song army can only follow behind and eat dirt.

In the end, it is still the issue of cemeteries and cavalry. In this world, it is almost impossible for infantry to defeat cavalry and wipe out most of the cavalry.

"The Jin people rely on nothing more than cavalry. How could Yao not know about this?" Yao Yu replied after hearing this: "Being north of the Liangjiang River, I dare not say what kind of chance of winning. But when I arrived in the water town of the south of the Yangtze River, the power of the Jin army's cavalry would be greatly reduced. Our army can use mountains, rivers, rivers, lakes, hills, woods, ships and other maneuvers to attack the Jin army unexpectedly."

"Our army can use rivers, rivers, seas and lakes to defend or maneuver, but the Jin army can also use river channels to attack." Zhang Kan said again after hearing this: "blocking the river channels can block the Jin army, but it also cut off our army's march route, and the Jin army can also block the river channels. So what if that is the case?"

"The people in the south are good at boats, and the people in the north are good at riding. Can the Jin people have boat masters?" Yao Yu asked back.

"With that being said, just like my Black Flag Army, there are also cavalry troops besides the Zhoushi. Can you guarantee that the Jin army will not have a Zhoushi?" Zhang Kan shook his head and asked.

"Even if the Jin people have a boat army, how can they match my Black Flag Army's boat army? What are you afraid of like this?" Yao Yu asked.

"We should prevent problems before they happen, and we should not underestimate the Jin army." Zhang Kan said.

The two of them became more and more fiercely, their faces were red and their necks were thick, like a quarrel.

"Hey, hey, what are you quarrels?" Li Sanjian said quickly: "Li Gang, Xu Han, Yao Yu, and Zhang Kan's words all make sense. Today we should discuss a plan for the best, otherwise no one is allowed to leave. People come, put on the lamp, and serve food."

Li Sanjian and others have been talking about it all day in the "motor room", and the sky is gradually getting darker.
