For many days of sunny days, the snow has melted. Outside the city of Youzhou, a group of vigorous knights raced around the city half a mile away from the city wall. The man in the middle was Emperor Guo Shao of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
The black and shiny horse runs fast easily. It seems to be just spreading joy on the flat ground. The strong horse brings the wind speed, and Guo Shao feels the spring silk on his face. The silk is warm and moist. He was surrounded by his two cult brothers, Yang Biao and Luo Mengzi. They were in their prime of life, brave and powerful, which made Guo Shao feel very at ease.
The world is very vivid. The blue sky is like the sea, and the white clouds are white and flawless. The spring grass on the ground is not obvious from close, but as long as you look farther, you can see a piece of tender green in the field.
The new nature, the old city walls are mottled in the brick brown, as if they are telling the story of the years.
Guo Shao is young and attired, wearing armor and a red cloak fluttering in the wind, his face is full of spirits, ready to fight!
Hebei is Hebei and one of the basic sites in Kyushu. Now Guo Shao is riding his horse here unscrupulously, watching the city and its siege.
The horse team galloped past the south tower, and Guo Shao saw a vaguely crowded person on the tower watching this side. Suddenly guessed that it might be the Great King Xiao Siwen of the South Campus?
At this time, countless people gathered inside and outside of Youzhou City, but the atmosphere felt strange...The two sides had no communication at all.
The gates of the city were closed tightly, the Liao army was completely hidden, no active attack, and no practical long-range weapons... out of reach. Zhou Jun had not yet prepared for the construction of the siege fortifications, nor had he attacked the city. For many days, the hostile armies of the two sides gathered only a short distance away, but they seemed to be able to coexist.
No one tried to persuade him to surrender. If the Liao army in the Southern Hospital of Liao State would surrender, it would be a hell!
No one calls provocation, because ordinary soldiers don’t understand at all, and you don’t know what you’re talking about when you scold your throat!
Guo Shao ran a horse lap around the city, but still did not send anyone closer to the city, and went straight back to the Chinese army camp. He entered the big tent and strode to the front of the map above.
At this time, the generals handed over the weapons they were wearing, and walked into the big tent to pay a visit.
Guo Shao turned around and said, "All are free." Then he looked at Wang Pu.
Wang Pu stood up and bowed, then turned to face the direction of the tent, and said: "The following is Tang Bao, the first batch of reinforcements of the Liao army that went to Beijing has been dispatched ten days ago, and the total strength should exceed 35,000. ; Now where is unknown, it is expected to enter Hebei within five days.
This is the first batch of reinforcements, and the number of cavalry that the Liao army can dispatch is far more than that. The former camp estimated that in the later period of the Liao army, more than 100,000 Khitan and Xi cavalry could be dispatched, and the servants of all ethnic groups are difficult to estimate. "
Wang Pu paused and said: "Therefore, the Great Zhou Army should look for opportunities to defeat the first batch of reinforcements of the Liao Army during the siege, and at least block them outside of Youzhou City.
According to your majesty’s order, the military order of the former camp army in Youzhou is as follows..."
Wang Pu pointed to the situation map hung on the wooden frame on one side, "On the right, with Li Chuyun inspected by Sidu in front of the temple as the coach, Shi Yanchao as the forward; lead the second army in front of the temple (controlling cranes and tigers) Cavalry 28,000. On the left, the guard Ma Busi commanded Han Tong as the coach, Luo Yanhuan was the forward; led the guard Ma Busi Second Army (Long Jie Jun left and right side, Tiger Jie Jun left) cavalry 20,000 Five thousand rides."
The main force of the Zhou army’s imperial cavalry is 53,000 cavalry. In order to deal with the reinforcements to the north, all the cavalry are dispatched; because the siege does not require cavalry, the horse infantry of the Tiger and Cardinal Army also has mobility, which can be used as infantry and can barely be used as cavalry. It can be used as a temporary reserve team.
The Huben Army has a total force of 40,000 on the left and right of the second compartment, half of which are cavalry. The rest of the infantry are equipped with mounts, which are the most sophisticated troops of the Zhou army; the crane control army cavalry is about 8,000. Li Chuyun's department led these mobile forces.
The Long Jie Army is subordinate to the Majun Division of the Guards, and the proportion of cavalry is also very high, with about 20,000 horses; the left side of the Tiger Jie Army is mainly infantry, and each army can gather up to 5,000 horses. Han Tong Department is these people.
There were more than 50,000 elite cavalry in the Great Zhou Dynasty. This is also the result of Guo Shao's continuous development of armaments since he took power. Because the Central Plains is really expensive to raise cavalry, and there are not many good horses.
However, there are a lot of infantry. With Liu Renzhan and Gao Yanjian, the Zhou army has more than 100,000 infantry.
Wang Pu pointed his finger at the picture and said: "This is Youzhou, and the line to the south is the Sanggan River. The line oblique to the north is the Wenyu River, and these are tributaries; the area to the northwest is Xishan... The Liao Army recently The route is to take the North Exit (Gubei Exit) and cross the Yanshan Mountain from the northeast to the south, so the elite on the right is in the direction of the North Exit.
General Li should lead his army across the Wenyu River on the right and go deep to the north to extend the depth between the front line and Youzhou. "
Wang Pu took two steps horizontally and continued: "As long as the right road goes deep to the north, it is necessary to prevent the Liao army from detouring from Xishan and attacking my siege army. Therefore, General Han's headquarters must be located near Juyongguan (abandoned) and Deshengkou Activity.
There are two strategies on the left road, one is to prevent the Liao army from going south from Xishan; the other is, if the main force of the Liao army is determined to be in the direction of Beikou in the east, the left road should immediately move most of the east to cross the Wenyu River and wait for opportunities near the bank , Forming a north-south echoing trend with the East Road. "
The four generals went out together, clasped their fists and said: "The ministers wait for the order!"
Guo Shao waited for Wang Pu to finish deployment, and then he said: "Within a month and a half, the Great Zhou Army has taken the initiative and has superior forces. You should have the determination to win.
Also have insights into fighter planes, and respond to them. As long as the rational motive for the decision-making can be explained after the war, the decision can be made on the fly; as long as it is beneficial to the overall situation and the result is won, it is not guilty to resist the decree in this battle! We can't stick to the rules and act rigidly, victory is the only purpose! "
The generals clasped their fists to thank you.
Guo Shao said with a serious face: "This battle is far-reaching, and the great achievements are at this time. May the generals work hard to kill the enemy!"
Everyone said with excitement: "The liver and the brain will not hesitate..." "I would like to drive for your majesty..."
Guo Shao waved his hand, and the generals thanked him and retired. Then a military commander walked out of the account and said: "Xuan Yu, the generals will enter the account for discussion!"
Another group of generals formed two columns and strode into the big account one after another.
Guo Shao is still deploying troops with the minister of the former camp. Mainly the strategy of attacking the city, the deployment of the reserve team, these generals will stay in Youzhou City to attack the city.
Zhou Jun besieged Youzhou City half a month ago, but he almost didn't make a shot. He was preparing to repair the fortifications and encircle the city to prevent Xiao Siwen from having a chance to leave the city and make trouble. Also waiting for follow-up infantry, artillery, and materials to be transported to Youzhou City.
In the big tent, one map after another was hung on the wooden frame, and Guo Shaojun and his minister kept discussing from the afternoon to the evening. The siege of the city is a complex project, but so far it is very clear, organized, detailed and pragmatic.
All preparations are operating efficiently. The heavy artillery and stone bullets and other materials will begin to be transported at the right time, and they have reached the front line at this time.
