Chapter 169: The Strategy of Destroying Chu
Pengcheng.
A meeting with extremely high level of confidentiality is being held.
Excited and solemn words echoed in the house.
"If the King of Chu could rule the land and people of five thousand miles with more than ten large families, dozens of vassals, and aristocrats of more than a thousand corpses; then our Mo family could certainly control the land and people of these five thousand miles with tens of thousands of Mo people."
"This incident is the most important step in the great cause of benefiting the world. Dear comrades, don't forget your original intention and inherit the will of Zi Mozi and Zi Qinzi."
"This time, we are not only going to war with the State of Chu, but also with the entire old system and the old world. When our soldiers truly occupy the capital of the State of Chu, the rulers of the old system will unite."
"The Ying clan of Qin, the marquis of the Three Jins, and the Tian clan of Qi will all move out the Zhou emperor who has not been used for a long time and unite to strangle us."
"But victory belongs to us after all. As long as we occupy Chu territory and defeat the joint counterattack of these enemies, then there will be only a last bit of distance left to the world's fortune. Then it will be like a rotten wood, and it will fall down with one push!"
Shi waved his arms and gave a speech about the war, which also declared that this attack on Yue Kingdom was just a cover.
The navy of Yue State was a threat. It required the occupation of Yue State to maintain the system and govern the system. Therefore, taking advantage of this battle between Qin and Jin and the opportunity of civil turmoil in Chu, the Mo family used the unrighteousness of the King of Yue as a reason to induce the princes of the world to believe that the Mo family wanted to annex the Yue State.
However, in fact, the Mo family was just preparing to destroy the naval army of Yue and control the Yangtze River and break the Yangtze River. The Yue country without naval army would not have any threat to the Huai and Si area, so they could only watch the Mo family defeated the Chu country and then returned to deal with them.
Once the Yue naval army is defeated, the Mo family will immediately declare war on the Chu State.
The reason is... no prince could believe it. It was fabricated when he heard it, but the people would believe it very much.
Xiong, who was reforming and reforming, was suspected to be dead, or was finally killed by the situation, and was waiting for this opportunity.
Of course, Xiong Suspicion did not die normally, but was "stolen and killed" like his father, to put it bluntly, it was a political murder.
A large number of vassals who smuggled arms with the Mo family supported Wang Ziliangfu, and Wang Zizang, who had inherited the reform of the King of Chu, succeeded to the throne, and the civil war of inheritance rights broke out in the Chu State.
It was said that it was a civil war in inheritance rights, but in fact it was a palace coup. Before the body of the King of Chu was mourned, the nobles attacked the palace and killed Prince Zang, worshiped the ancestral temple and claimed that the law of the ancestors was unchangeable, and elected Prince Liangfu as the king.
The reason for the application was that when he was on a mission to Chu State more than 20 years ago, he talked with the secret room of the King of Chu State. He fabricated the words of the King of Chu State that if there were reactionary changes in Chu State, then ask the Mo family to come forward to resolve these rebellions and make the people profit.
This reason is too nonsense, as long as it is a nobleman with a brain, he will not believe it.
However, this reason was not something that made the nobles believe at all. The audience of these things was not the nobles, but the people of Chu.
This is not a reason to declare war, but a means of propaganda.
Even the manifesto that had been drafted, as well as the various reform regulations that benefit the people after ruling Chu were all written in the simplest, easy to understand dialect that the people of Chu were well-known.
Promotion must be clear about the audience, and it is undoubtedly stupid to come to the public to make a comeback and drum music and even to quote scriptures.
The senior leaders of Shi and Mohism will stay on Si and conduct a comprehensive mobilization, allowing Wei, Han and Chuqi to see how terrible the general mobilization and inside battles under effective grassroots rule are.
If they delay time and wait for countries to send troops together, the Mohist family will also choose to delay time. As long as they annihilate the southern legion of Chu, which was divided into Tongbai Mountain and the Han River in the Dabie Mountains, the general situation will be settled.
If they do not delay time, but can't wait to prepare for the attack, they will first cut off their fingers and break them one by one according to the predetermined plan, so that they cannot gather.
If it is really unexpected that the response speed of various countries has far exceeded the limit of the feudal era and has really organized an unprecedented army, then follow the previous plan of the General Staff.
Give up the Song State, and use the fortification areas in Jishui and Heze to defend the northern line, retreat in the middle line, gather troops, and lure the enemy into deep. Once the opportunity comes, it will defeat the right wing of the coalition forces on the left wing, that is, the southern wing, and make dumplings to force the coalition forces to retreat.
If they face the right wing being stolen and the left wing cannot break through the Heze Jishui defense line, and the central army does not retreat even if it goes deeper, then they can choose to fight decisively in the inside line, fight an annihilation battle in the Concaoyue Pocket Formation, and destroy the last field main force of Wei, Chu, Han Qi.
But in this way, Wei, Han, Chu and Qi will be over, and there will be no chance of struggle at all. At that time, the strategic offensive power on the Central Plains battlefield will be in the hands of the Mo family.
Then we will go north to defeat Qi first, and the troops will face the Yellow River and Taihang. It doesn’t matter whether to erode or swallow it.
The essence of the entire North China Plain is in the hands of the Mo family. The best-developed Huai and Si areas are still the same. The Chu area in Jiangnan belongs to the Mo family in just three years, and a large army can be drawn through land reform.
In recent years, the Mohist family has cultivated and reserved sufficient number of cadres who are familiar with Chu language in various places for this grand strategy. They have already started preparing more than ten years ago, not only to destroy Chu, but also to occupy and not leave to form an effective rule.
This plan seems cumbersome, but in fact it is simple. Even if an accident occurs in one link, as long as it is not defeated and there is no chance that the State of Chu will exist.
The Chu State is in a new chaos. If the Chu State chooses to fight in Wuhan, the army on Si will not fail, and the gap in combat effectiveness cannot be made up by strategy.
If the King of Chu chose to escape and gave up the Battle of Wuhan, it would actually be a dead end. Giving up Wuhan is equivalent to giving up Jingxiang and fleeing south like the Battle of Baiju that year, and there would be no chance of restoring the country again.
The Mo family was not the Kingdom of Wu, not for revenge, but for the formation of effective rule to understand the people's suspension. The more the King of Chu gave up, the faster the Mo family's strength grew, and he dared to occupy it if he dared to escape.
The Shenxi army had only two choices. They either went south to Wuhan and met with the Jingxiang Legion to prepare for the battle in Wuhan; or went north to meet with Chen Cai and other divisions in Nanyang and then planned to plan.
If Shen Gong was really not good at using his brain and chose to command Shen's troops to rescue Hefei, Cai, and Shouchun, it would save a lot of trouble. If he defeated each of them, he would eat Shen's troops first, and there would be no force in the Chu State from Huaibei to Hubei, and then it would be very smooth in the future.
The elite surprise troops seized the three passes and captured Xiangyang just to close the door and beat the dog to divide the Chu State. It was not such an invincible method, but only a simpler method that could be defeated. Therefore, if the strange plan is feasible, it will be carried out, and if it is not feasible, it will be pushed over along the river.
Similarly, in the Central Plains, Wei State was taken by the Mo family and Qin State in the east and west. In fact, there was no field legion that could fight in the east. South Korea still had some strength, but it had to cooperate with the remaining forces of Chu State.
Qi itself dares not go deep into Si Shang. If the army goes deep into the deep, it will undoubtedly die. Qi can only wait for the countries to prepare. When the countries are ready, Yingdu may have already held a mobilization meeting to start recruiting troops.
For this plan, the most critical step is to destroy the naval army of Yue, make the country of Yue useless, cut off worries, and obtain the power to control the river.
Of course, if you cannot win this battle, then go back and choose to avoid water and land battles, destroy Yue Kingdom first, and slowly plan it.
As long as this is defeated, all plans can be implemented with all their strength. These plans cannot be solved by strategy and wisdom, and the Mohist school can withstand several mistakes. The State of Chu will be completed once without "amazingly defeating the greater with less". In other words, the State of Chu must create at least three miracles that belong to the three thousand years of famous history books in later generations to be able to maintain immortality.
