Chapter 1834 Don’t guess, the guess is true
Put Zhengtai and Loli aside for now, and turn to look at the Hanoi area.
What?
Just want to see Zhengtai and Lolita?
No, did you see that one crawling over?
The tense atmosphere in Heluo and Yuzhou has not completely affected Hanoi. In many places in Hanoi, it is still quiet and there is no atmosphere of imminent war.
The prefect of Hanoi was originally Wang Kuang, but when Wang Kuang came here, he was defeated by Dong Zhuo. Secondly, because he was too utilitarian, he even betrayed his relatives and friends in order to seek refuge with Yuan Shao, which led to the Black Mountain Army running out of Taihang. At that time, there was no one to support him, and his strength was greatly damaged. Later, he was easily eliminated by Cao Cao.
Now the prefect of Hanoi, um, can’t be regarded as a prefect, but somewhat like the model of Yingchuan, Diannong Zhonglang general, half army, half civilian, stationed in Sanyang, the main general is Le Jin, and the partial general is Cao Zhen.
Hanoi was originally a county close to the capital of the Han Dynasty. Even though it has suffered many blows under the flames of war for several years, there are still many aristocratic families, such as Sima from Wen County...
The one stationed in Wen County was Wang Tu, a general under Le Jin who had taken the post of Captain of the Guard. Le Jin and Cao Zhen are in the Shanyang Administration.
People always like to be lazy and slack, and they will relax naturally if they are not careful. I don’t know whether it is because human nerves are somewhat defective and cannot adapt to high-intensity stressful environments, or because of the consideration of energy consumption. Helps reduce loss...
Anyway, when I first heard that Feiqian had left Hangu Pass, Hanoi was very nervous at the beginning, and it reached its peak after Xiaxiaopingjin was captured. People and horses suddenly appeared below the city.
But after waiting for a few days, and then a few more days, I didn''t see anyone, and I heard that Cao Sikong had led his troops to the south and stationed at Guandu, and at the same time, there were deployments in the east and south, and there were probably three parties gathered under Luoyang The situation, and naturally relaxed a little, in addition to sending some scouts to investigate daily, just do what should be done.
The weeds in the cultivated land need to be dealt with, the leaky houses need to be repaired, the cracked roads need to be leveled, all kinds of things are busy, and many people gradually forget about the horsemen and horses in Heluo...
Even including the generals and schools in the army, many people expressed cautious optimism. Some even said that the hussar general had lost his momentum and continued to linger in Luoyang, which was a sign of indecision. Some people said that General Hussars had a problem with food and grass, so he couldn''t move forward. Some people also said that the hussars general is now rich, which is different from before. Naturally, it is impossible to attack all without heeding it. This battle may not be able to continue to fight now.
Most of Cao''s army are infantry, and the combat power of infantry basically depends on the supply and logistics. It is like Zhuge had to retreat once the Jieting was lost in history. If the supply and food cannot be delivered, the troops in front cannot It is basically the consensus of Cao Jun to fight. A large army is fighting outside, and the supplies it consumes are astonishing. In addition, most of Cao''s troops are recruited, so it is necessary to add additional rewards when they return to the battle. Moreover, the more tragic the battle, the more rewards Thick, so in fact Cao Jun''s economic pressure has always been great.
Pushing others with self, Cao Jun thought that the same is true for hussars and horses, because they have no money, no food, or some other reason. Anyway, they can''t move, which is normal.
At least until the logistics supplies of the Hussar General can catch up, the battle will not be able to continue, and when will the Hussars'' supplies come? No one can say for sure, but the consensus of most people is that it is not so fast. Isn''t it already April, and the autumn harvest will be in a few months, and most of them will have to wait until after the autumn harvest.
Wang Tu, the guard general of Wen County, if he searched his family tree carefully, he might not be able to belong to the Wang family of the Western Han Dynasty. However, Wang Tu is not able to proclaim his noble blood every day like Liu Daer , so until now he is still a small guard officer.
In the Han Dynasty, the so-called "Guardian of the Guard" and "Da Sima Guard" set up in the central court were basically permanent positions, and those with a rank could receive a fixed salary. The so-called "Central Guard", "General Guard", "Lieutenant of Guard", "Sima of Guard" and other official positions with the word "Guard" are basically temporary military positions and belong to the Under a certain general, he can be appointed and dispatched by the general at any time.
Wang Tu is such a temporary official position and may be eliminated at any time, just like the deputy manager of a certain area in a later company. Although he presides over the work, he does not need to report to the superior department.
It is not so easy to be a supervisor in one place. The most important thing is to see if there are performance indicators, er, administrative requirements...
After Wang Tu took this position, he naturally wanted to turn his temporarily dispatched official position into a full-time position with a salary for a long time, so he was very careful about Wen County, especially for the common surname in Wen County, Sima. , even more attention.
Although in this era, it has become a common practice for aristocratic families to place bets among various forces, but the Sima family seems to have gone only in the hussars?
This is worth being careful about.
As the main guard of the city, it is indispensable to patrol the city four times a day. Regardless of the wind and rain, and whether you stay up late at night or not, you must come out for a walk when the time comes, otherwise you will be recorded in a small book. After returning to Le Jin''s subordinates, reprimand and punishment are indispensable.
So when it was approaching dawn, Wang Tu had to get up, and then led the guards to start the first round of city patrol of the day.
At the foot of the city, there were still some materials piled up, but they couldn''t be delivered to the city wall completely. The civilian husband who was in charge of transferring the materials was sleeping in a distorted state. Wang Tu''s guards wanted to step forward to remind these guys, Wang Tu looked at the time, but stopped the guards, bypassed these peasants, and walked to the city wall.
These materials were transported from Jizhou with great difficulty in the past two days, and these folks were sponsored by the big households in the city. No matter which aspect it is, it is not easy to lose too much. Instead of asking these folks to get up and carry them in the dark, it is better to wait. Let’s say it’s dawn, anyway, it’s not even an hour away…
Wang Tu couldn''t help yawning a lot as he walked, even tears came out, wondering if he could go back to his den after patrolling the city, and sleep in the cage or something. In the past two days, I have to be busy with the affairs of the city, and I have to engage in relationships with the local big surnames, which is quite exhausting.
Looking at the current situation, this battle will not be fought for a while, or it will not be as important as before. First, take care of the government affairs and people''s livelihood in the city, otherwise, I will not be able to pay the taxes when the autumn harvest comes, and my temporary work will really come true. temporary...
While Wang Tu was walking around and pondering, the distant sky began to light up. Wang Tu, who walked past the west city gate, glanced at it inadvertently, then stopped after taking two steps, and then stared into the distance with wide eyes...
This... This is definitely not my illusion!
In the faintly discernible sky, groups of cavalry suddenly appeared in the distance!
The speed of these cavalrymen was not fast, but they advanced slowly with a kind of calm momentum, so that the sound of horseshoes was not very loud, and Wang Tu didn''t hear the sound until now.
A shrill cry sounded in Wang Tu''s ear, and then he realized that it was his own roar: "Enemy attack! Enemy attack! 』
…(;￣O￣)…
『The hussars went north along Jishui? Did not attack the county seat of Wen County? 』In Wubao, the Sima family''s manor outside Wen County, Sima Fang leaned on a cane and asked with some doubts.
『Report to Father, it is true. ’ Sima Lang replied.
Sima Fang has been to Bingbei for a while, but his legs and feet have always been inconvenient. According to the medicine of later generations, it is rheumatism leg, which is a disease that is not very easy to treat in later generations, let alone in the Han Dynasty, so he did not stay long. I had to go back to Wen County again. After all, Wen County had a milder climate than Bingbei, and it was also somewhat more convenient.
As the eldest son, Sima Lang naturally needs to act as the face of the Sima family when his father, Sima Fang, is handicapped. However, what happened on this day made Sima Lang somewhat puzzled.
Hussars and horses came suddenly, and passed Wen County without fighting, just went north along Jishui...
It''s not that the number of hussars is not enough, or that the cavalry cannot attack the city. After all, in Wen County, besides Sima, there are also some people with common surnames around. It''s all possible, but the two teams at the front and back, with a combined total of almost 2,000 people, just went north in silence?
Of course, Wang Tu, the chief general in Wenxian County, did not dare to do anything wrong. He guarded the four gates tremblingly.
Encountered such a situation, Wang Tu immediately sent someone to send a message to Le Jin in Shanyang, but if he wanted to go out of the city to intercept the hussars, I am afraid that he would not be able to do it even if he had the guts.
『The hussars go north to Jishui... Could it be that they want to return to Shangdang? Sima Lang frowned and said, "If that''s the case, wouldn''t it be...according to someone''s opinion, he probably went to Jizhou?" 』
Going north from Hanoi, you either go back to Shangdang by going Taihang, or go northwest to Jizhou, but after General Hussars attacked Luoyang, he just returned to Shangdang in silence? Could it be that something happened in the party?
Although such a possibility cannot be ruled out, according to his understanding of Shangdang''s Taiyuan area, Sima Fang doesn''t think that there have been any major changes, and that General Hussars is needed to help Shangdang. After all, the Shangdang Taiyuan area was considered an area that was attached to General Hussars in the early days, and it was under the control of Jia and Cui, with the cooperation of the local surnames, and it has always been smooth and stable. At the same time, the Yuan family in Jizhou also fell, and even the Xianbei people were said to have been dealt with, and they could not threaten the Shangdang Taiyuan area at all.
Unless Cao Cao sent out a surprise soldier?
Sima and his son glanced at each other, and also ruled out this idea. If there is less division of troops, it will be useless. If there are too many divisions, Cao Cao can''t hold it head-on. Besides, Cao Cao now wants to defend a large area from Jizhou to Yanzhou, and then from Yanzhou to Yuzhou.
The only remaining possibility is that General Hussars is going to detour to Hanoi and attack Jizhou.
『Can you see the flag of its leader? ’ Sima Fang’s heart skipped a beat and he asked.
Sima Lang was taken aback for a moment, then clapped his hands and said, "Yes! Definitely go to Jizhou no doubt! The leading general is Tai Shiye! 』
Tai Shici''s magnificent attack on Yecheng back then has become a battle example for many military-loving gentry children to discuss and debate, and many who like to talk about wars on paper will argue about how to fight and how to arrange it. Sima Lang naturally It is also very familiar, after his father Sima Fang asked such a question, he immediately responded.
Sima Fang nodded slightly, then shook his head again, stroked his crutches, and remained silent.
『…』 Seeing Sima Fang''s expression, Sima Lang couldn''t help asking, "Father... Could there be something else wrong with this matter?" 』
Sima Fang stroked his beard and said, "You also know that the hussars are going to attack Jizhou, how can others not know?" How can we prevent it? 』
"This..." Sima Lang moved his eyes and said, "Could it be that the hussars pretended to go north and still wanted to enter Yuzhou?" 』
Sima Fang shook his head again, then pondered for a while, and said: "If what I expected is correct, this is General Hussar''s strategy of falsehood... What is false is real, and real is false. Between the false and the real, there is no reason to change." , really amazing...」
『A strategy of fiction? Sima Lang was stunned, "If Cao Sikong doesn''t respond, then this empty position becomes real, and if he agrees, it becomes a false move again... This, this is really..." If you say it like this, it really fits the Hussar General Habits, put them on the chessboard anyway, no matter whether they should or should not, the opponent will be very uncomfortable.
Sima Fang couldn''t help sighing a little: "It''s easy to say, but extremely difficult to do... Only General Taishi can advance and retreat freely...There are so many generals in the world, but there are so many heroes under the command of Hussars..."
This is indeed the case. In the Han Dynasty without instant messaging technology, the commanding generals on the front lines became the most important core figures. Although the virtual-real conversion seems to be just a few words, in actual combat, the leading generals are required to be present Judged. If the lack of insight leads to the judgment of the opponent''s actual moves as false, or vice versa, it may lead to the failure of the entire battle. However, Tai Shici had the prestige of the previous Yecheng battle, so naturally no one would, and no one dared to underestimate Tai Shici''s commanding ability.
『Under this time, Cao Sikong is in trouble...』
