The Strongest System To Dominate the Three Kingdoms
Chapter 986: Strategic Consumption
Chapter 986
The two sides fought a battle, and the losses were huge. Zhang Yu finally lost 68,000 soldiers and horses, of which 40,000 were Fusang troops, and his own army also lost more than 28,000 men.
Cao Cao also had a hard time, killing about 60,000 people in the battle.
Together, the two sides lost hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses.
After Cao Cao went back, he took an inventory and suffered a great loss.
Several counsellors assembled again, and then Xun You said: "This time Zhang Yu is quite determined. He is going to die with us and must be prepared. Maybe there will be a big battle with Zhang Yu here."
Many things can be seen in this battle.
Everyone thinks that Zhang Yu is going to fight them in a decisive battle, unless Zhang Yu is completely defeated in order to contend for this city.
But Jia Xu is not the case.
"Lord, it's natural that Zhang Yu will fight with us for this city. He will not give up easily, but his subordinates believe that Zhang Yu will fight us with a protracted war of attrition and will not fight hard with us." Jia Xu said.
Everyone is puzzled. In today's great battle, the two sides reimbursed hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses. Isn't it a decisive battle?
There is no disagreement between the people in the battle for this Changshan county town, but how the two sides fight is a problem.
Many people think that Zhang Yu will have several big decisive battles with them to decide the outcome.
But Jia Xu thought Zhang Yu would fight them for a long time.
Everyone looked at Jia Xu, and then Cao Cao said, "I would like to ask Mr. Wenhe to explain."
Jia Xu scanned the crowd, then clasped his fists in a bow and said: "This battle Zhang Yu consumed more than 60,000 soldiers and horses, and the logistical pressure suddenly became less severe."
Everyone was speechless, and then took a breath.
If this is the case, then Zhang Yu is ruthless enough, in order to relieve his logistical pressure, he will send the army out for a decisive battle.
Cao Cao thought for a while and said, "Can we afford such a protracted battle? How long will it last?"
Prolonged battle, then both sides must fight for endurance.
After everyone studied, Cheng Yu said: "Zhang Yu is trying to drag us to death strategically. If it is really a protracted war, our food, grass, soldiers and other resources will have to be transported here from Yanzhou and other regions, which consumes a lot of money. At the same time, we If it doesn’t work economically, it will be dragged down."
The two armies have almost the same distance and the same strength, and both sides have to transport grain, grass and soldiers. If it is a protracted battle, it really has to be exhausted.
From a strategic point of view, Zhang Yu has controlled the north of Jizhou, and Cao Cao controlled the south of Jizhou. This Changshan County is one of the important fulcrums. Zhang Yu occupies this place. Once there is war in other places, then this is Cao Cao’s rear, and Zhang Yu is from here. Threatening him will make Cao Cao very uncomfortable.
For example, in Qingzhou, Xuzhou and even Jiangdong, if Cao Cao dared to intervene and threaten Zhang Yu, Zhang Yu sent troops from here to attack the hinterland of Jizhou, then Cao Cao would have to support from Yanzhou and other places, which would be very uncomfortable.
Cao Cao had a terrible headache. If Zhang Yu had a big battle, then he would fight with him. If he lost, he would admit it.
But if Zhang Yu really wants to fight him for a long time, then he will suffer.
Is Zhang Yu really so?
Zhang Yu really wouldn't have a decisive battle with him right now, because Zhang Yu arranged two hundred thousand Fusang troops over this time, so how could he let his elite soldiers fight Cao Cao desperately, and to consume these Fusang troops?
Therefore, Zhang Yu fought with them once, and next time he won't be so fast.
Two days later, Zhang Yu received a challenge letter from Cao Cao.
"Hehe, whoever fights you, when my Fusang army arrives, I will fight you." Zhang Yu gently threw the letter in his hand and fell into the brazier.
"Order, guard the camp carefully, and hang up to avoid the battle card." Zhang Yu said.
Cao Cao was naturally a temptation, he hurriedly wanted to know what Zhang Yu's strategic intention was.
Zhang Yu hung up the free card, which made Cao Cao very uncomfortable.
Cao Cao didn't have that much money to fight Zhang Yu's long-term war of attrition, and he was still fighting with the big corps.
If it is in Yanzhou or the eastern part of Jizhou, Cao Cao is not afraid, but in the western part of Jizhou, the two sides are far away from here.
In the next few days, Cao Cao sent generals to provoke him repeatedly, but to no avail.
A few days later, Cao Cao was able to determine that Zhang Yu was going to fight him with a protracted war of attrition.
Zhang Yu also wondered why Cao Cao was so anxious that he wanted to fight a decisive battle with himself.
After some analysis, Zhang Yu felt that there was a problem.
"Cao Cao, Cao Cao, you are afraid of it too." After thinking carefully, Zhang Yu felt that Cao Cao must be afraid of dragging his army here.
Zhang Yu immediately wrote a letter and hurried back to inform the cabinet of his consideration and at the same time let them cooperate.
This cooperation naturally means to send more troops and at the same time mobilize civilians to deliver food and grass to them.
Zhang Yu has the economy, but Cao Cao doesn't. It costs a lot of money and food here, and Cao Cao really can't afford it.
Isn't that going to fight anymore?
Cao Cao couldn't afford such a strategic disadvantage when he gave the city to Zhang Yu.
No way, Cao Cao ordered the cities of Yanzhou, Yuzhou, and Jizhou to transport grain and grass, and at the same time transferred tens of thousands of soldiers and horses.
At this time, all the soldiers and horses attacking Binzhou had to stop.
If you don’t stop, you won’t have the money to support the Union State's operations if it is to be consumed for a long time.
However, the Yuan family still has hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses, and it is impossible to make a quick fight.
This Cao Cao was quite entangled.
"How to break the game?" Cao Cao said to several counsellors.
After spending a long time here, Cao Cao obviously can't afford it, so he has been holding meetings to study in a hurry.
There is no good way to study together with a few people.
Xu You said: "Meng De, our troops are all transferred to the western front. We want to break the game on the eastern front or in the middle of Jizhou and other areas that attack Zhang Yu, so that he cannot send troops to support him. In addition to this, let Sun Ce attack the Poyang Lake area. , Otherwise there is no good way."
This Xu You was ridiculed by Zhang Yu before calling him Cao Cao Cao Aman~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Now Xu You dare not call it like that, and his name is Cao Cao Mengde.
In order to attack the Yuan family, Cao Cao mobilized 800,000 soldiers and horses to the western front. He was able to defend on the eastern front, but if he wanted to attack, many loopholes would immediately appear.
It is even more impossible for Sun Ce to attack Zhang Yu, because Sun Ce has already begun to fight Jingzhou.
Cao Cao's anxious eyes flushed a little, and then said: "So, prepare with both hands, Zhongde, you immediately go to Yecheng to raise grain and grass in southern Jizhou. If necessary, you can use extraordinary means."
"In addition, I will write back immediately so that Wen Ruo and Ang'er can also prepare."
After Cao Cao finished speaking, rubbing his brows, he was very unwilling to see Zhang Yu fighting a protracted battle here.
This Zhang Yu didn't fight him decisively, and slowly consumed, his elite soldiers and strong generals are all concentrated here, which is obviously not a problem.
Cao Cao sent Zhang Jai and Xiahou Dun back to guard other places. It is not worthwhile for all his generals to be here. Please use the latest domain name to read books on this site
