Chapter 541
At this time, there is no positive classic in which the Hou Huaiyin classic of the Battle of Jingxing won a complete victory, but there are many negative teaching materials.
For example, in the Battle of Bi, Xun Lin’s father was backed by the big river. Facing the counterattack of the Chu army, Xun Lin’s father was worried that he would be wiped out, so he ordered the Chinese army to cross the river. There were chasing soldiers from the Chu people, and the Jin army was fighting to cross, so that "the fingers in the boat are so beautiful."
In addition to relying on genius, war also relies on continuous summing up of experience. For example, at this time, there will naturally be no one who insists on imitating the Marquis of Huaiyin, like Xu Huang in the novel, who wants to make great achievements, but will think of Xun Lin when he chooses to fight his back. My father's negative experience of "the first aid will be rewarded".
The experience that Dr. Pingyin can draw is that if you want to line up against the water, you must scuttle all the ships, let alone think about building pontoon bridges.
The counselor's suggestion was undoubtedly correct.
As the "Nine Places" said, if a soldier is deeply trapped, he will not be afraid; if he has nowhere to go, he will be firm;
Now that the main force of the Mohists is in an important place, it is obvious that the logistics are not good, and the speed of the intrusion is too fast.
But now the Qi army can't advance and retreat, it is impossible to win in the field, and if they retreat, they can't run away from the righteous army. In fact, the Qi army has fallen into a dead end.
Once you are in the place of death, you have to live towards death. The only way to win is to infinitely magnify the condition of the important place where the Mohist righteous teacher is located.
Doctor Pingyin also understood that if he escaped alone, he would be killed.And if the army is chaotic, if you run first, you may not be able to outrun the Mohist cavalry, and you will be dead at that time.
Instead of doing this, it would be better to line up against the water and let the soldiers fight as a last resort.
As long as it can last for a few days, the balance of victory will tilt a little bit towards Qi State every day.
He thinks that his field command is not as suitable as being famous in the battle of Lushui, so he doesn't want to think about such things as flanking counterattacks. He can only choose to defend, and things like chariots can be used as defensive fortresses. Instead of thinking about charging with a chariot.
Chariots need a lot of space to deploy. Once they are not well deployed, the place where the chariots attack may become the direction for the Mohist to break through the defense.
So Doctor Pingyin made a little point on the map and said: "So, tomorrow morning, go out of the camp and march to Nanjishui to form an array."
"The formation is like a crescent moon, the central army is convex and the two wings are curved. Behind is Jishui."
"All the chariots will be used as camps, and all ships will be burned."
"Tonight, let people gallop to pass on the letter, and order the soldiers from Chengyang, Linqiu, Gu, Ah, and Lixia to come to help, saying that I have held back the main force of the Mohist volunteers, and as long as the army is encircled, we can win a big victory."
…………
Early the next morning, both parties had breakfast early.
The weather was just right, and the scouts and reconnaissance cavalry attacked separately, approaching each other's army formation, intending to harass and delay the speed of the army's assembly.
Soon, the movement direction of Qi State's army spread to the Mohist side, the intention was very obvious, Qi State wanted to form an army against the water.
After the army gradually approached, the main officers of the Shihe Volunteer Division all climbed up a hill and observed the movement of the Qi army with binoculars.
After Liuzhi looked at it, he said, "Doctor Pingyin wants to learn from the tortoise. He is leaning against the river, because he is afraid that we will raid the flanks? Do you want to drag the troops by the river until the reinforcements arrive?"
The officers around responded: "It should be so. Sun Wuzi said, put them to death and then live. Soldiers will not be afraid if they are deeply trapped. If they go nowhere, they will be firm. If they go deep, they will be restrained. If they have to, they will fight."
"They are putting soldiers to death. In fact, we are also at death. Once we can't attack for a long time, and the reinforcements from various doctors come, we will be passive at that time."
Shi naturally thought of the last battle of the Marquis of Huaiyin in later generations, but he said with a smile: "Soldiers, one after another. The Qi army wanted to put them to death and survive, but they only thought of putting them to death to survive, but they didn't expect that once they were defeated in death , that is, there is no escape."
In the battle of Jingxing in the later generations, Han Xin's soldiers were in harmony with each other, and the last stand was just to organize the defense. In the end, it was the surprise soldier who attacked Zhao Jun's camp that led to two mental breakdowns of Zhao Jun and won the final victory.
Now facing Dr. Pingyin's back-to-back formation, I didn't care, and said with a smile: "Scholars must have the will to die before they can fight to the death. If our volunteer teachers like to build a Beijing temple, then the Qi army may fight to the death."
"The result of their back-to-back fight today was doomed as early as the battle to aid the most. The Qi army was defeated in the battle to aid the most. We captured many Qi people and released them after some education. Now from According to the news from various quarters, there are quite a few people from Qi who participated in the battle to aid the most, and most of them were reported in the army."
"That's why I said, rules, Xuanyi, these seemingly non-soldier forces can sometimes be worth tens of thousands of troops."
Pointing to the busy camp of the Qi army, he said with a smile: "Doctor Pingyin has a plan and never fails. Being able to think of the tactic of standing against the water proves that he has a plan."
"Whether it's because he thinks he can't beat us, or because he really thought of waiting for help to magnify our disadvantage in the important place...Since he chose to stand against the water, it shows that he has a plan."
"But……"
He couldn't help laughing and said: "But he knows that he can't beat us, or he wants to defend to the death, so when the Qi army started to retreat three days ago, if he made this decision, he would build a camp on the spot and wait for help. Appreciated."
"Now, I can only find it ridiculous."
"He panicked when he saw us approaching. He ran first, but he didn't run, and then he chose to line up with his back."
"Three days ago, he had at least two days to build camps, organize defenses, dig ditches, and place dogs to walk away. In that case, it might be really difficult to attack. We have to divide our troops to guard against the Wei and Han coalition forces in the direction of Chengyang."
"Now, what can he build the camp? The soldiers ran away for three days, and the army's morale was confused. As the commander, he may think that this is a clever plan, but in the eyes of the soldiers, this is a helpless strategy after they have nowhere to go."
"So, how can it be undefeated?"
Let everyone feel at ease first, and everyone was convinced, nodding one after another.
Shi is not in a hurry, the speed of the deployment of the volunteer army is very fast, and there is no rush to deploy it now, so I talked about these strategies with these officers.
Six Fingers said: "You said that the Mohists are good at defense, but defense is not a deadly defense. I have also said that it is a heavy place and a dead place. If you really want to defend, you should rely on the strictness of the army formation, repair the camp and rigid formation, and rely on spearmen and muskets. Soldiers, so that the flanks collapse without chaos."
"But I think Qi Jun can't do it."
"The formation is heavy but not strong, and there are few artillery. If you want to win by rigid formation and renovation of the camp, you must have more artillery."
"Otherwise, defending in an formation, the artillery bombards fiercely, and the iron pellets are extremely damaging to the dense formation, and it is easy to open the gap. This is impossible to win. Unless your own cavalry and artillery desperately destroy the artillery of the attacking side , it is possible to form an formation and defend to the death.”
"The Qi State is now using the chariots as a camp, and retreating to the riverside. It is not ready to attack at all, but to learn from the tortoise."
"This Pingyin doctor didn't think it through at all. Before the appearance of the bronze cannon, it was still possible to win by defending against the water. Now that the bronze cannon is released, the artillery has the advantage on our side. They don't want to kill our artillery first, but they want to defend. It can be said that there is no plot at all, it can only be said that there is no plot and no resolution.”
"If the Qi army forms a phalanx, it is really not easy for us to attack. However, the phalanx is most afraid of artillery, and it is close to the fierce bombardment. Once the phalanx is blown away, wouldn't it be a massacre? If he has no guns, the phalanx will not be able to defend .”
Shi smiled and nodded, "You are someone who can understand that the mode of war has changed. So, how do you think this battle will be fought?"
The commander of the first division pointed to the map and said: "Yesterday we ordered Chengyang to order the heavy copper cannons and three brigades in the direction of Chengyang to go north along Jishui. Front."
"As for the reinforcements from the Qi people in the direction of Ah and Gu... the number will not be large. If they act separately, they will deploy reinforcements. If they act together, they will not be able to join forces within half a month, which is equivalent to nothing."
"Therefore, it is safest to fight and harass first, and wait until our three brigades and those heavy copper cannons arrive before launching an attack."
Shi nodded and said, "It's a good idea. What do you think?"
The rest of the people also nodded, thought for a while, and said: "This is the right way. But the faster this battle, the better. The longer the time drags on, the greater the variables."
"Qi people form a crescent moon formation with their backs on their backs. It seems that they can defend from all sides, regardless of the flanks and back. But there is also a major shortcoming."
"It is like a circle, which can be defended on all sides, but as long as it is broken at one point, the circle will not be a circle."
"It's the same for the people of Qi to form an array with their backs to the water. It seems that the head and the tail look at each other, and there is Jishui covering the rear of the flanks. But looking at the head and tail, where is the head? Where is the tail? Looking at the head and tail, it can also be said that there is a head everywhere and a tail everywhere."
"As long as they break through a little, the Qi army will be defeated. If they stick to it, they will form a large formation. The large formation moves slowly. The 6 people are 6 people, and the front of the entire 6 people must be defended."
"They form an formation like this, moving their whole body with one hair. If they move a little, their formation will be completely chaotic. Under the backwater, the soldiers can only fight to the death if they don't move. Just a little movement, it will be chaos, fleeing and fighting to cross the river. "
"When we attack, we can form a small formation and move quickly. For example, if we gather 12 people before [-] Qi people, it means that we actually have [-] people. Because any point is broken, the Qi people will be defeated. A point of [-] against [-] means that the whole army is [-] against [-]."
Everyone present nodded, and the commander of the fifth division asked: "If the Qi people find that one of our sides is weak and choose to change formation to attack..."
Shi smiled and said: "That's the best. Once they change their formation, they will no longer be tortoises. The tortoise still has a shell, which may break my teeth. But once it moves, the first person may not be able to look after each other. He chose to retreat because he was afraid of fighting me in the wild. Once he moves, he will throw away even the shell of the tortoise, isn't it the food in my mouth?"
"I can't wait for him to move. If I didn't feel that he was scared out of his wits and didn't dare to move, I would have prepared to induce him to move. Now, instead, he will feel that there are some empty places that I intentionally The loopholes left to lure him to move, but he is even more afraid."
