Chapter 66: On the Combat Power of the Border Army? Don’t expect it!.

“Don’t think I can’t, in fact, I can.”

Huang Rong was very dissatisfied with being looked down upon by Su Mu, so he volunteered to perform.

However, her behavior was stopped by Mercy Xing, who whispered in her ear: “Xiao Rong’er, don’t mess around when your brain is hot, you want to say that this matter is not suitable for you.” ”

“Sister Mercy Xing, is there anything wrong with this?”

Huang Rong didn’t know why, thinking how this couldn’t work.

Mercy Star: “…..”

What do you want me to say?

Do you want me to say that my sister will be upset?

Words like this obviously cannot be spoken.

And seeing that Mercy Xing didn’t give herself an answer, Huang Rong couldn’t help blinking, she still didn’t quite understand why this happened, but since Mercy Xing wanted to stop saying it herself.

So… Well, or don’t say it?

When Huang Rong was still entangled, Chen Tangguan had already arrived.

As for the Beifu Army, it was stationed outside Chen Tang Pass, and Su Mu entered Chen Tang Pass with his guards.

“Lord, Chen Tangguan has been thoroughly mastered, and any suspicious people have been arrested.”

Yuwen Feng hurriedly rushed over and reported the situation.

Of course, Yuwen Feng simply reported the situation, mainly about some affairs in Chen Tangguan. For example, the arrest of treacherous people.

“You can handle these things by yourself, now is there an update on the situation over there in Jizhou?”

Su Mu waved his hand, indicating that these things did not need to be carefully reported, but the movements in Jizhou needed the most attention.

Yuwen Feng said in a low voice: “Lord, according to the latest intelligence, An Yuntian directly mobilized the fifty thousand troops of the Fengtai Battalion, and it seems that he has noticed it. ”

“Oh? Also, the loss of Chen Tangguan could not be concealed for long, and the enemy must have known, but An Yuntian actually directly mobilized the 50,000 troops of the Fengtai camp, which was a little unexpected to me. ”

Su Mu was not surprised by this, knowing that Chen Tangguan would definitely not be able to hide this, but he still had to do this, because even if the enemy reacted quickly, it was not easy to immediately gather an army and rush to the front.

And Su Mu is to seize this time, quickly attack the city and seize the land, and capture as many places as he can. If you can occupy the entire territory of Jizhou, it is good.

But if not, half of it is fine.

Knowing that the Jizhou side had mobilized the 50,000 troops of the Fengtai camp, Su Mu decided to let Lü Bu be the vanguard, fighting all the way, and the army pointed directly at Yecheng.

At that time, An Yuntian must mobilize most of his troops to garrison Yecheng in order to stop the enemy army that is going south.

After all, Yecheng is the central node of Jizhou, and it is also the capital of Jizhou, an important central hub connecting the north and the south, and can be described as the heart of the four northern states.

Once Yecheng is lost, Jizhou is equivalent to a total fall, and this will threaten the Central Plains, and the neighboring Union Prefecture and Youzhou will not be spared.

“Lü Bu, you led the 3,000 Xuanjia Army as the vanguard, all the way south to Yecheng, and there will be 20,000 Beifu Army iron cavalry support in the follow-up, what you have to do at that time is to gather all the border troops of Jizhou in the area of Yecheng, understand?”

Lü Bu bowed down and said, “Master, Bu understands.” ”

After that, Lü Bu rode away, rode out of Chen Tangguan with three thousand Xuanjia iron, and killed all the way to the south.

“If you do this, will this logistical supply keep up?”

It’s just that after Su Mu finished arranging, Huang Rong muttered softly.

In Huang Rong’s opinion, Su Mu’s approach was even more reckless than the plan he had made before, in case this logistics couldn’t keep up, wouldn’t all the more than 20,000 cavalry be gone?

According to Su Mu’s previous thinking, it is to quickly attack and attack the city and seize the land, that is, to occupy, although it is fast, but what is to be done is occupation, that is, to occupy all the surrounding places.

And with Su Mu’s current practice, that is, to let Lü Bu go all the way south, that is, go straight south to Yecheng, and the several big cities and those small county towns around this straight line are left alone.

In this way, if the people cut off the back road, wouldn’t the Xuanjia army led by Lu Bu be alone?

“Won’t I let the Beifu Army follow behind? At that time, you can occupy those cities one by one. ”

Hearing this, Su Mu said that he had already made arrangements, so there was no need to worry so much.

“It’s theoretically possible, but will it be problematic in practice?”

Even though Su Mu had already given an explanation, Huang Rong still had some doubts, and she felt that there would still be some gap between this theory and practice.

“No, what is the combat strength of the border army, I know better than you, unless the 50,000 troops of the Fengtai camp go north, it is impossible to change the situation of the war, and the border army stationed in the county towns is not much, with Lü Bu’s combat strength, it is not difficult to break the city.”

Hearing this, Su Mu shook his head and said that he would not… Why?

Quite simply, the combat strength of the border army is not good.

The elite of the Jizhou Army had two troops, one was the 50,000 army in Fengtai Camp, and the other was the 30,000 guards in Yecheng.

These 80,000 people are the elite troops of Jizhou, and the border army there is just scum, plus the 50,000 border army has been damaged, and the remaining border army is still scattered and stationed in various parts of Jizhou, so how can the border army block the Xuanjia army led by Lü Bu?

In the same way, there are two identical elite troops on the Youzhou side, namely the 50,000 army of the Tangshan Battalion, and the 30,000 guard army of Jixingcheng.

As for the so-called border army, it is the kind that has no combat power to speak of, and there is no need to count on it at all.

If it was a hundred years earlier, the combat strength of the army there would still be okay, but now… Well, still don’t expect it.

Of course, although the combat strength of the border army is average, if you want to bluff, then there is still no problem, and the number of the border army is high, and if there are 100,000 border troops at every turn, the combat strength is about 30,000 to 40,000, anyway, don’t count on it

“Since you all say that the Fengtai Battalion and the Yecheng Guards are strong, then why do you still want Lü Bu to march into Yecheng and emphasize that people transfer troops to Yecheng? Isn’t this asking someone to fight you to the death? ”

Huang Rong still couldn’t understand, so she continued to ask, she really wanted to find out why Su Mu did this.

“Yecheng is very important, it is the heart of the four northern states, and it is also the key central hub of the north and south, once it is captured, it means that Jizhou will be completely reduced to 2.1, which will affect Hezhou and Youzhou, so I will fight outside Yecheng.”

The reason why Su Mu did this was to eliminate the elite troops of Jizhou outside Yecheng in one fell swoop, so that as long as the elite troops of the Jizhou Army were eliminated, it would not be too troublesome to occupy the entire territory of Jizhou at that time.

Hearing this, Huang Rong rolled her eyes and complained: “I’m afraid that people think like this, and what do you say in Youzhou, and Hezhou?” What if people send troops to support? ”

“Without the emperor’s order, the prefects of these two prefectures did not dare to transfer troops into Jizhou at will, otherwise they would have intended to rebel.”

Su Mu smiled when he heard this, and after saying a sentence without thinking, Su Mu further explained: “Especially at this node, it is even more impossible, besides, Jinyiwei is active in two places, as soon as there is a situation, I will know.” ”
