Vol 2 Chapter 564: Nanyang Battle

Nanyang, Wancheng.
Zhao Guang walked quickly into the Taishou Mansion. In the lobby, Pang Tong was reminiscing with Nanyang Taishou Pang Shanmin.
Pang Shanmin is a cousin of Pang Tong. In fact, he did not join Liu Bei, but he turned to Cao Cao. He had been helping Cao Ren to manage his internal affairs under Cao Ren. When Guan Yu broke through Xiangyang, he captured Pang Shanmin and remembered that Pang Tong was harmless. It was sent to Hanzhong, which was handed over to Liu Bei.
Although he is not as good as Pang Tong as a top strategist, he is definitely not weak. After being persuaded to fall down by Pang Tong, he stayed with Liu Bei for some time. Liu Bei loved his talents. After Ma Liang and Guan Yu were transferred to Changan, they ordered Pang Shanmin Nanyang Taishou. For more than half a year, Nanyang has been prosperous under the management of Pang Shanmin. Of course, there is also the foundation left by Ma Liang.
"Senior Prime Minister, Fujun!" Zhao Guang said to the two of them: "A beacon ignited in the area around the city, and Wei soldiers and horses appeared."
"Finally ready?" Pang Tong said with a smile on his lips.
"Shi Yuan, now there are only 20,000 troops in Nanyang. How many people do you bring?" Pang Shanmin looked at Pang Tong with some worry. The original garrisons of Nanyang are now stationed in Luoyang. If there is no reinforcements, even if they were there. The defense system made by Liu Yi is still very difficult to defend in Nanyang. The Great Wall alone must have tens of thousands of people stationed. Otherwise, it would be impossible to take care of it. It would be better to have 20,000, not to mention other Baidushan and Shizigang camps. There are major cities such as Stone City to defend.
"Hundreds of thousands of troops." Pang Tong shook his feather fan and smiled: "Brother rest assured, I came here to deal with Cao Wei, and the country can lead the army to take charge of the defense of the Great Wall. As for the rest, there is no need to worry. Go to deploy. "
Liu Yi personally ran through the mountains and rivers of Nanyang, made the most detailed sand table, and then designed various cities in Guancheng, which was supervised by his disciples and provided an effective defensive circle for Nanyang. Now it is a big help, even if Cao Wei sent troops, Pang Tong can still deploy without hesitation.
"Hello!" Zhao Guang promised and walked away.
Although he took over the defense of Nanyang, it was naturally impossible for Guan Yu to take Guan Yu as his main position. Although he was not under the control of Pang Shanmin, his position was not as high as that of Pang Shanmin. Moreover, Pang Tong was here and he had full control. After the Nanyang military, he, the leader of the Nanyang military, is now only obedient.
Hearing that there were 100,000 troops, Pang Shanmin was slightly relieved. Although the great Han is flourishing right now, as Guanzhong wins, there are many places to be guarded against. At that time, the 200,000 troops who were out of Sichuan were all arranged to be flanked by all parties, Chang'an It is necessary to retain enough troops to prevent unexpected situations. After all, both have not been built yet. There must be enough troops around the court to guard, even during this time, no force can bypass the heavy military station and enter Changan. , But it must not be ignored.
After all, Tianzi was there. If the defensive strength was not enough, Tianzi had an accident. This newly emerged man might be caught in a dispute again.
The reason why Liu Bei's transfer of rights to Liu Chan went smoothly was because Liu Bei had already decided that Liu Chan would be the heir. He announced in front of the group of officials that with the help of their five members, the transfer of rights was smooth and there was one more point, Liu Chan had no competition In the meantime, several of his younger brothers are still children. How can they compete with Liu Chan for the position of heir? However, if something happens to Liu Chan now, it is not easy to handle. Not to mention that the 100 officials of the DPRK and the Chinese government have their own interests tied together, that is, the five of them, I am afraid that they may not be able to work together to support one master. For the slightly better man, it is absolutely devastating.
Being able to mobilize a hundred thousand troops to come to Nanyang is probably already the limit of the Han. It is no wonder that Sun Quan came to attack, and Pang Tong did not react here.
Pang Tong is waiting for Wei Jun's attack.
Looking at Pang Shanmin who was relieved, Pang Tong shook his fan. If he told Pang Shanmin, of the 100,000 troops, including the 30,000 army of Guan Zhang and Zhang Er in Ba County, I don't know what he thought about his cousin.
But for now, Pang Tong feels that the 70,000 troops he brought with him, together with Zhao Guang's 20,000 soldiers and Guancheng built by Liu Yi's disciples, are enough.
"The victory in this battle is not in Nanyang." Pang Tong shook his feather fan and stood up, shook his head and sighed.
"Where is that?" Pang Shanmin looked puzzled at Pang Tong. This is the main force of Dahan and Cao Wei, and the main battlefields of the two rivalries.
"In Hetao!" Pang Tong smiled and said: "Bo Yuan is doing something now. If he can succeed, Hetao will be owned by my Dahan. Hetao will be threatened, and the state and Youzhou will be threatened. Defending this area, this game is wonderful, the place to decide the outcome is outside the chessboard! "
"Shi Yuan has talents, can it be impossible to take Wei Jun?" Pang Shanmin wondered.
"Wei Jun's coming was fierce, and his strength was strong. Although our army has strong armour, but its enemies are few, and it is acceptable to occupy the ground and defend the city, but if it sends troops to fight ..."
Not only the strength of the troops, but also the reasons for the arms. Cao Wei ’s current cavalry ratio is not low. Although the Hans got the Xiliang and had a horse source, but the time is still short, it is difficult to form a cavalry fighting against Cao Wei. Guarding, taking the initiative to attack, the difference in strength, and the lack of restrictions on the cavalry arms, Pang Tong was not sure to win.
"So, Shi Yuan is going to focus on keeping?" Pang Shanmin smiled bitterly.
"Well." Pang Tong nodded. Before the Han appeared enough cavalry, the Central Plains still suffered a lot. This is also an important reason why they said it was difficult to settle the Central Plains in a short time.
Only after completing one's own deficiencies is the time for real world domination.
Liu Yi?
Pang Shanmin can't talk about Liu Yi's likes and dislikes. After all, there are not many intersections, but a craftsman can go to this stage and even affect the world's pattern. From this point of view, Pang Shanmin still admires Liu Yi quite.
...
Shicheng, Guan Xing looked at the burning smoke in the distance, and his expression was calm. Over the years, he has also experienced countless battle battles, failed, and even been captured. Of course, he is more proud, and therefore, After the initial blood impulse was smoothed out, what settled down was a calmness that would not appear to people of this age.
Human temperament is generally related to experience or experience. With more experience, the experience will naturally be there. Although Guan Xing is young, his experience in these years is much more exciting than others.
"General, the enemy is now less than thirty miles away from our army, and the strength of the troops cannot be liquidated for the time being, but it must be tens of thousands!"
"Surely tens of thousands?" Guan Xing frowned, looking at the general: "How much is tens of thousands? Twenty thousand? Thirty thousand? Or one hundred thousand two hundred thousand? Are you going to be the first day?"
The Han army is very rigorous in the collection of information. Today, the first lesson is the importance of intelligence in the art of warfare in various academies. This kind of problem does not appear in the generals sent by the academy, but the army The generals at this level are all currently served by experienced generals. At least so far, no disciples from any college have reached this level.
"Let's go explore at the end!" Pi Jiang said quickly.
"Remember, don't be fooled by the other party's tricks such as increasing troops and reducing stoves. If you can't explore, find a few generals from the college." Guan Xing glanced at him.
"Hey!" Pi Jiang nodded quickly, and then got up to leave.
"Wait!" Guan Xing suddenly remembered something and looked at General Jiang: "Send someone to notify General Zhang Bao, saying that the main force of Wei Jun has already appeared in the area of ​​Shicheng."
Bian will be a little puzzled, but it's not easy to ask too much, and immediately agreed to turn around and leave.
As for why Zhang Bao should be notified? Ask for help?
That's naturally not true. Now the two are responsible for guarding, each with 20,000 soldiers and horses beside him. According to the city, this confidence is still there.
The two are brothers, but they are compared from childhood to metropolis, and even they will compete with each other. When facing the enemy, the two can cooperate with each other, but if they are separated as now, they will inevitably be mutually. Now, it's nothing more to send someone to notify Zhang Bao, just tell Zhang Bao ~ EbookFREE.me ~ He will get the first prize in this battle!
It is a kind demonstration, which is a common thing between the two of them.
When the sky is getting dark, Pi will report again: "General, it has been proved that the comer is the pioneer of the Wei dynasty. The chief will be Zhang Hu, with a strength of 10,000, and the error will not exceed 1,000."
The word "error" came from the generals of the Academy of Classical Learning. In order to study art of war, you must first learn mathematics. The first three volumes of Tiangong Kaiwu are basically mathematics. Words also flow out from here, and are now necessarily used in military statements.
"You defend the city for me first!" Looking at the sky, Guan Xing said directly: "Notify the Fujiga Army to gather and follow me. Last time my father let the horse out, this person dared to appear. This time, But I'm sorry for me! "
The Tengjia Army has great disadvantages, but if it is a surprise attack, it can often build amazing skills. After all, in an extremely short time, the enemy cannot see the weakness of the Tengjia Army at once, so Pang Tong and Zhuge Liang It was thought that it was not necessary for the Fujikuji Army to gather in one place, and now they are scattered among the various armies. The number is not large. Like Guan Xing and Zhang Bao, this time, there are thousands of Fujikuji troops under their command. It can play the role of raid or post-offensive. As for the frontal battlefield, this kind of arm that is easy to be seen by people is not suitable for the main force.
"Hello!"
Guan Xing brought his big sword down the city wall, and a thousand vine armoured soldiers had assembled and stood at the gate of the city. Thousands of battles looked a little thin, but at the moment, they gave a suffocating sense of oppression and could become a vine armor. It must be a brave and good warrior in the army, and the momentum of a thousand people, not to mention ordinary people, even ordinary generals may not be able to withstand it.
"Let's go!" Guan Xing turned around, without saying a word, shouting his arms, a thousand-person battle line came out from the gate of the city, and greeted the pioneer of the Wei Army from afar!
