Lu Ning nodded and said,"Yes, Wen Yuan is right. We have to surround the reinforcements and use a jumping tactic. We don't need to attack one city at a time. We need to take down Yin Mansion City first, then quickly take over Yanmen Pass. As for the other small counties, I think they will only run away once Yin Mansion City falls and our army arrives. They won't resist our army, and they won't have the ability to resist our army.”
"My lord, what do you mean by attacking reinforcements and jumping around?" Zhang Liao asked.”
Lu Ning smiled and said," Besieging the enemy means that we surround a part of the enemy or a city, but not to attack the besieged enemy or city. The purpose is to attract reinforcements from other places. This way, we can plan well and formulate the corresponding tactics to destroy the enemy reinforcements. As for the jumping tactic, it meant that we shouldn't be limited to advancing step by step. We could bypass the enemy troops or cities in front of us and directly attack the enemy's rear or deep into the enemy's territory, and destroy them in one fell swoop.”
After hearing Lu Ning's words, Zhang Liao continued,"My lord, what should we do? Please tell us more about the new battle tactics. We have never heard of them before.”
F * ck, if you had heard of it, then wouldn't you have also become a transmigrator?
"My idea is that our army should just jump out of Mayi City and attack Sang Qian directly." Surround Sanggan City, but we won't really fight. We'll fake it and attract reinforcements from the nearby enemy forces, but mainly to attract the enemy forces from Yin Mansion. Of course, it would be perfect if he could attract the enemy troops from Mayi and other places. At the same time, we can also hide our main forces near Sangqian. As long as our scouts can scout in time, we can form a situation where we have more people than them. Moreover, we don't want to fight them head-on. We will use all kinds of methods to ambush them and sneak attack them. The goal is to destroy the enemy's effective strength on the way.”
After Zhang Liao heard this, he thought for a moment and said," My lord, I think the plan is feasible. Our army can reach the target in a very short time with two or three riders. However, the soldiers will still have to fight a tiring battle. We have to make it clear to the soldiers that we can only turn the situation around if we fight. Otherwise, the situation will become more and more unfavorable for our army.”
Lu Ning nodded at Zhang Liao and said,"We also need to have our scouts continue to investigate the situation of the Tuoba tribe. Once they discover anything, they must report it immediately. At the same time, our army will send more sentries from tomorrow onwards, especially more hidden sentries. We must not let the Tuoba tribe ambush us. As long as we set up more hidden sentries, the reconnaissance eagles of the Tuoba tribe will not be able to do anything.”
"The lord said that the eagle flying in the sky can spy on the enemy."”
Lu Ning smiled and said," That's right. Once this kind of scouting eagle discovers the presence of enemy troops or scouts, it will immediately let out a long cry. Only the people of the Tuoba tribe will train this kind of scouting eagle. If we destroy the Tuoba tribe in the future, we must find a way to capture the person who raised and trained this kind of scouting eagle. We will see if we can convince him to raise and train this kind of scouting eagle for our army."”
Li You heard what Lü Ning said and heaved a long sigh of relief."I knew it was strange. In the past, when we went to fight the Xianbei cavalry, the Xianbei people would know in advance every time we took action. They always thought that there was a traitor, but they never found out.”
Lu Ning said," Ergou, you are in charge of scouting. You have to explain this situation clearly to your subordinates. When scouting the enemy situation of the Tuoba tribe, you have to think of a way to avoid their scouting eagles. Otherwise, the Xianbei Tartars of the Tuoba tribe will know your every move. They will also know your geographical location and will threaten your safety."”
"Yes, my lord. We will be careful in the future."”
Lu Ning smiled." You don't have to be too careful for the time being. I reckon that there should still be some time before the Tuoba Tribe attacks our army. They should choose around winter. That's because they have just arrived at the northern grasslands to graze. When they come south for the winter, they will want to destroy our army. If they led their troops over now, their large number of cattle, sheep, and horses would not have so much grassland. They could only rely on the vast grasslands in the north.”
"My lord is right," said Zhang Liao."Even Yanmen, Yunzhong, Shuofang, Jiuyuanzhang and other places do not have so much grassland for the Tartars to raise livestock." Every year, the Tartars would move south before winter and then north after spring. Therefore, be it the Xianbei or the Xiongnu, most of their plundering of the Great Han borders happens after autumn. They leave after spring. However, the court has been too weak these years, and the local authorities have been too incompetent. They have never recovered Yanmen, Yunzhong, Shuofang, and Jiuyuanzhang. As a result, the Tartars would leave a small number of soldiers and livestock in these places after they left each year. This would solve and facilitate the problem of their tribes surviving through the winter, and it would also facilitate their further looting of the Central Plains of the Great Han Dynasty. This is the sorrow of our Han people. If this continues, in a few years, the Xianbei and Xiongnu cavalry will all be defeated. At that time, our Han people will be finished.”
L??N??ng sighed and said,""Wenyuan is right, and it's the truth. I came here from a study tour and saw the people suffering. The Xiongnu and Xianbei people were tyrannical, killing and setting fires. Their crimes were heinous and they committed countless crimes against the people at the border. That's why I agreed to bring Buhui and the others to fight the Xiongnu and Xianbei people together.”
Li You replied,"It will be four months in a few days, my lord."”
Zhang Liao smiled and said," My lord, your name is very famous now. Everyone in the world knows that there is a big bear in the north of Bingzhou. He leads people to fight horse thieves and Xianbei people." As for the lord's name, I don't think many people know it, but as long as it's the big bear of the north, it's a household name. At that time, I also came because of my lord's heroic deeds. At first, I only wanted to see what was going on, but I was moved by my lord's personality. According to my original plan, I wanted to go to Bingzhou to join the army, but when I saw that my lord was recruiting soldiers, the conditions were relatively harsh. I was itching to show my hand, but I didn't know that I would alarm my lord.”Everyone laughed when they heard that.
