Chapter 536 Interception (Part 2)(2/2)
But this is only a military issue, without considering the political consequences.
Wang Yan would not consider military issues, but only looked at people's hearts, and came up with another conclusion.
If you listen to both, you will be enlightened; if you believe only, you will be dark; if you are sincere, you will not deceive me.
Of course, letting the Xiongnu in and then fighting may not necessarily have serious consequences. As long as they can win, nothing is a problem. On the contrary, after the war, we can also take the opportunity to clean up some of the second and fifth sons and make Hebei more stable.
But as Wang Yan said, as long as there is a fight, there will be two outcomes: victory and defeat.
If the odds are high, does it mean you can definitely win?
In the Battle of Gao'an, the Tang army had many soldiers and food, but Xue Ju was almost out of food and had few troops. Liu Wenjing and Yin Kaishan thought they had a good chance of winning, so they went out to camp for a decisive battle, but were defeated by Xue Ju. The soldiers and horses brought by Li Shimin
The loss is sixty-seven out of ten.
Nothing is taken for granted.
After suffering so much, the Huns will not learn lessons and make progress?
Wang Yan thinks that gambling should not be done.
He doesn't understand military affairs and believes that fighting means gambling on the outcome. It's best not to gamble unless absolutely necessary.
Shao Xun was silent.
This decision must be made by him, and others can only provide reference opinions.
"If you are really in trouble, it is better to block Fukou." Wang Yan suggested: "Fukou is too close to Handan and Yecheng. It can also be connected with Shile and Liang Fuzhen. Once they are connected together, Jizhou will definitely have
Repeat. Baixing can be left alone. There are fewer people in Ji and Wei counties who are loyal to the Huns. It is not easy to raise food and grass. It is also far away from Shile and Liang Fuchun, so we can try it slowly."
"Lieutenant is familiar with the classics. Can you explain Fukou in detail to me?" Shao Xun said suddenly.
Wang Yan felt happy in his heart, knowing that Taibai had listened to his words, so he said: "Huainanzi" says, 'The cauldron appears.'"
"Gao Yuan noted that 'Jingshan is located in the southwest of Handan, where the water from the cauldron comes out, and Nanze flows into Zhangzhou. Its original waves are boiling, and its momentum is like soup in a cauldron, so it is called Fu, and today it is called Fukou.'"
"Zuo Si's "Wei Du Fu" says, 'Looking to Qi'ao to the south, the green bamboos will be pure and luxuriant; facing Zhangfu to the north, the marshes will be different in winter and summer.'"
"Jingshan is also known as Fushan and Gushan. There is a stone drum on the mountain, and as the saying goes, it sings by itself. Liu Shao's "Zhaodu Fu" said that 'the divine trumpet makes a sound.' The world says that when the divine drum sounds, there will be war and revolution in the world."
"Therefore, if we want to block Fukou, Gushan and Fushui are the key. I don't understand military affairs. How to set up defenses, you have to do it yourself."
Shao Xun recalled the map.
Fushui, Gushan, Fukou, Wu'an, Handan...
A series of mountains, rivers and cities came to mind, and with his extraordinary familiarity with marching and fighting, he had a strategy in an instant.
