Chapter 524: The Strategy of Flowering Trees
"well!"
Accompanied by sighs, the Hu people on the grassland set out in a mighty force.
Just as Liu Quan said, they have no choice but to go all the way.
…
At this time, the Han army had already begun to join forces.
Their mission has basically been completed, what does the rest have to do with them.
All the young and strong Goryeo soldiers in Mingguang City were taken away by Hua Xiong and his men. Basically, most of Mingguang City was moved away. They basically carried out looting and pried away all the portable items.
On the other side, in Guangyang City, Lu Bu and his men simply emptied out all the defenders of Guangyang City and looted the treasury. They did not touch the remaining civilians.
On the contrary, after witnessing the power of Guan Yu, Lu Bu, Zhang Fei and others, many young and strong Koreans spontaneously followed the footsteps of the Han army.
The size of the Han army, which originally had only more than 20,000 people, was instantly increased to about 100,000 people, and they also had the treasuries of two Goryeo cities as logistics.
…
"What should we do next?" Yuwen Chengdu asked the people around him with a frown.
They didn't gain anything during the ambush. After receiving the news, Sanyang City immediately went into a state of retreat and completely reduced its defense range.
Not to mention ambushing, they robbed the goods of several caravans, but Sanyang City remained indifferent.
"They are indeed the backbone of the Han Dynasty. After they have taken the young and strong men from the two cities hostage, they are probably planning to attack Sanyang City. We should just go with the flow and act as the vanguard."
Xue Rengui sighed. Sometimes breaking the bottom line is useful. Let them deal with it.
They would never do something like Hua Xiong and his men, but from a rational point of view, this is indeed the best move.
It is better to have endless deaths of young and strong men from other people's families than to sacrifice one's own soldiers.
"Send troops! Send troops! We will directly attack Sanyang City and then bypass this city!" Xue Rengui calmed himself down and said with a confident smile.
"Going deep into the enemy's territory alone? You are so brave!" Yuwen Chengdu exclaimed.
"Then I will go and organize the troops!" After listening to the two people's general statements, Sun Ce could not contain his excitement and ran out to organize the soldiers.
"Bofu is really active! I'll go and help him, and you two will make the plan!" Gao Chong followed Sun Ce out indifferently. Anyway, he just had to obey orders. He was really not good at leading troops to fight.
He had felt it before when he was leading the Western Liang Cavalry in the Pamir Mountains. Not to mention the gap between him and Zhuge Liang, his IQ was a little inferior to that of guys like Li Que.
He simply gave up his own IQ, and his IQ became strangely on par with Sun Ce's. In addition, because of Sun Ce's domineering aura, Gao Chong still liked to hang out with Sun Ce.
"I'll listen to you. We'll attack first and then make a detour!" Yuwen Chengdu nodded and agreed to Xue Rengui's plan.
"Let's do this. If they dare to come out, we will strike back!" Xue Rengui continued without changing his expression.
All of them are brave fighters, and none of them are afraid of trouble.
Going deep into the enemy's territory alone is very dangerous for many people, but it is just that dangerous for .
In war, except for checkpoints, other strategic locations can actually be completely avoided.
There is no problem in bypassing it, but the biggest problem is after bypassing it.
You bypassed the city, that's no problem, but his logistical supplies cannot bypass the city.
In other words, you took the initiative to cut off your own logistics lines.
When two armies are fighting, the side that cuts off its logistics first has little chance of winning.
The few times they won were all famous battles for the super giants. In other cases, the logistical supplies were cut off, which basically meant the failure of a war.
Xue Rengui and his men took the initiative to cut off their own logistical supplies and bypassed Sanyang City to attack the city with weak defense behind.
However, with the support of the mighty army led by Hua Xiong and others, they were not particularly reckless.
Deep behind enemy lines, it is not just them who bear the pressure, Sanyang City will also feel tremendous pressure.
They are basically the last bastion in the north. If they really let Xue Rengui and his men slip away, who knows how much chaos Xue Rengui and his troops will cause.
This is Xue Rengui's open conspiracy. Conspiracies are not worth mentioning if you see through them, but open conspiracies are different. Even if you see through them, you still have no way to crack them.
If Sanyang City sent out a large army to stop them, it would be equivalent to automatically giving up the city and choosing to fight them in the field.
With fewer troops dispatched, they can directly defeat the enemy and drive the defeated soldiers to attack the city.
If more troops were dispatched and the troops in the city were depleted, they would create opportunities for the army in the rear to attack the city.
Anyway, according to the information provided by Jia Xu, the road ahead is basically smooth sailing after Sanyang City.
They just didn't believe that some small cities could stop their combination of three broken realms, one internal energy leaving the body, and an army of seven thousand.
If they are lucky enough, they can capture Sanyang City, unite their forces and directly attack the Goryeo royal city.
"Let the war burn in every corner of Goryeo?" Yuwen Chengdu looked at the map along the trajectory indicated by Xue Rengui, and finally his eyes were fixed on the Goryeo royal city.
"As long as Yi Sun-sin in the south is not a fool, he will definitely hold back Yeon Gaesomun. As long as we are fast enough, we can completely take over Goryeo within this year."
Xue Rengui looked at the map calmly, but the flames of war were already burning in his eyes.
He has a moral bottom line, but when it comes to such major military events, he never shows mercy.
He was reluctant to rob, but he was fully capable of doing so when necessary.
He doesn't know how to do it, but he can learn.
"What if we can't take Sanyang City? I saw in the intelligence that Sanyang City is quite powerful!" Yuwen Chengdu asked with narrowed eyes.
"It doesn't matter. As long as the damage we cause is great enough, Goryeo will be unable to breathe for at least five years. This will also solve a major hidden danger in Youzhou." Xue Rengui said with a sneer.
Youzhou was devastated last time. Even though he tried his best to stop it, many people in Youzhou died and more were displaced.
If it weren't for Jia Xu's extraordinary ability and the strong support from the court, Youzhou might still be a miserable hell on earth. Xue Rengui would never forget all this.
"Should we send someone to notify Military Advisor Jia?" Yuwen Chengdu frowned and thought for a moment before saying.
"Send someone to notify them. If the plan doesn't go smoothly, we will evacuate according to the route planned by Advisor Jia."
Xue Rengui thought for a while and said that this plan still needed the cooperation of the fleet arranged by Jia Xu, otherwise it would be difficult for them to move forward without a retreat.
