Chapter 118 The target is changed to Xiapi County

"What's the matter? Everyone looks serious..." Zhu Xin stepped forward and asked curiously.

"Just just sent a military order from the rear, Yuan Shu asked us to change direction and attack Xiapi County." Sun Ce turned around and said when he heard this.

"It's true that revenge is coming." Zhu Xin sighed, knowing that Yuan Shu must have been revengeful. Seeing that two days of marching, everything was calm and I wanted to say that she changed her nature, but it seemed that she was thinking too simple.

After thinking about it, he asked, "Is it difficult to attack Xiapi County even if we are asked to attack Xiapi County?"

"It must be as easy as Guangling!" Lu Fan said angrily.

"In addition to the military order sent by Yuan Shu, it also comes with information from Xia Pi." Zhou Yu replied, "The new Xuzhou governor Liu Bei arranged for his third sister Zhang Fei and the former Tao Qian general Cao Bao to be stationed in Xia Pi County. Not to mention that Zhang Fei had a thousand Youzhou cavalry under his command and three thousand Danyang soldiers under his command, but they were the aces of the Tao Qian era."

On the other side of Guangling, the former Xia Pi Xianglu (ze) Rong occupied the magpies' nest, and the defenders were three to five thousand, but they were not worth mentioning.

This Buddhist likes to commit crazy investment in religious undertakings, spending all his money on religious construction, and his money and grain reserves are not much. At the same time, it was designed to kill Zhao Yu to occupy Guangling, which was unpopular.

When you go to Guangling, you basically go on vacation and have a leisurely stroll around, and you will almost finish the fight.

Xia Pi is different. They face the elites of Xuzhou, so it is probably not that easy to fight.

"According to accurate information, Zhang Fei is a 'flying general', and the cavalry is a senior profession. The cavalry she commands is difficult to deal with." Sun Ce said with some concern.

"Although I am also a profession of the cavalry general..." Han Dang sighed, "It's a pity that I'm just a cavalry general, and the level is not enough for her."

Maybe you can use skill level to suppress it, but you have never beaten it. I don’t know what level of Zhang Fei’s skill level is.

Zu Mao also ruled the cavalry, but he was not a professional. Facing ordinary infantry, even professionals still had the power to fight. Facing orthodox, especially high-level cavalry generals, he might be suppressed.

This world has been modified by magic, and stirrup saddles and horseshoes have appeared.

If you want to make up for the gap through equipment, you can only start with weapons. It is nothing more than letting the cavalry equipped with hand crossbows, hand halberds, spears, and golden gourd hammers... The problem is something you can think of, and the opponent will definitely think of it.

"Cao Bao is just a general, but the combat power of the Danyang soldiers is extraordinary, and Bo Fu and Fuqi can still deal with it." Lu Fan further analyzed, "We will also fight next to us. Thousands of people are fighting around three thousand people, and there is no reason not to win."

"Since cavalry is not easy to fight..." Zhu Xin thought for a while, "then create an environment where cavalry cannot be used. Having said that, is there any map of Xia Pi?"

Tuyu is a map. It is said that the official map exists in the past few days, but private drawing and trading are prohibited.

After all, if someone wants to rebel, then the most important thing is a map. With a map, you can formulate more accurate plans, bypass the main force of the imperial court's siege, and even set up plans based on the terrain.

If not, you can basically only walk on the official road. The officers and soldiers only need to go along the official road and basically catch one by one. Of course, it is okay not to go. If you get lost, your morale will only collapse in minutes.

If you miss the best opportunity, you will also give the court enough time. It is said that the three Zhang sisters rebelled that day because of the lack of maps, which delayed a period of time, and gave the court a siege army, and even had extra time to prepare money, grain and materials.

"Yes, wait!" Qin Song responded. As the chief clerk, she knew the best of the supplies in the army. She didn't talk nonsense and immediately sent someone to get them. Unfortunately, she found out that it was not an official map.

It can only be said that it was private drawings from the private drawings of the people. The old and new should be drawn in recent years. Since the heroes confronted Dong, everyone has seen that the Han Dynasty was about to fall apart, so some things that were originally forbidden were secretly done.

For example, maps are of course the first thing to do. I originally thought that it would be best to entrust Wanshiwu to do it. They are the largest leader in logistics and warehousing and service industries in Dahan, so maps must have inventory.

However, the other party did not accept this task and expressed that they had an agreement with the court that no matter which court it was, Wanshiwu would not help drawing a map. Obviously, it still makes sense that it can exist until now.

At least they are already very big and have great business, and some businesses that do more harm than good for themselves, but are very profitable are also qualified to say ‘no’.

The structure of the map is very simple, but it roughly draws out the various cities, mountains and rivers in Xia Pi. There are certain errors and there is no big problem.

"We want to go north to Xia Pi, so the Huai River stands in front of us directly. The ones that can be attacked are Huailing, Dongcheng, Gaoshan, Xutai and Huaiyin south of the Huai River. Among them, the best places to cross the river to the north are Xutai or Huaiyin."

There is also a Huaipu in the northeast of Huaiyin, but the city is north of the Huai River.

"Are you planning to lure the cavalry to the mountains and forests near Xutai and then solve the problem?" Zhou Yu had seen through Zhu Xin's plan, or she was now using the initial professional skills of the strategist.

Insight into the initiative is a war between intelligence and brain. Whoever has more comprehensive intelligence and considers more thoroughly, then whoever can take the initiative. So, for any strategist, the first and most important thing is an excellent brain.

"The key is how likely the enemy is to station in Xutai?" Zhu Xin looked at Zhou Yu, this part requires her brain.

"I don't think it's big. Unless the other party's brain is broken, it's more likely that he will be stationed in Huaiyin." Zhou Yu had almost no deep thought and had already given the answer.

"Aren't you afraid that we will cross the river on Xutai?" Zhu Xin asked further.

"The hydrological situation in Hongze is very complicated and has a wide area. From there, I am afraid it will be difficult to move north. An ordinary dozen people can just cross slowly with small boats. But the army marched and a large number of soldiers and horses were accompanying it, that would be inappropriate." Zhou Yu analyzed.

In other words, from the beginning, the other party will guard Huaiyin and wait for them to come.

As for the other cities, it is very likely that they will give up. After all, war never cares about the gains and losses of a city and a place. Only by winning the last one can the final winner.

For example, Yuan Shu and Liu Bei fought very well, but Cao Bao brought Lu Bu into Xuzhou with his backhand. Neither Yuan Shu nor Liu Bei won the end, and Lu Bu won the Xuzhou master in this way.

However, Liu Bei has not left Pengcheng yet, and Lu Bu is still fighting with Cao Cao in Yanzhou. It is impossible for him to come to Xuzhou so soon.

"Then we probably have two choices..." Zhu Xin looked at Zhou Yu, "Gongjin, you have guessed it, right?"

"Yes!" Zhou Yu nodded, "Or, we will find a way to lead Zhang Fei to Xutai, and then defeat her with the help of the terrain there. Or we will confront her for a long time in Huaiyin, but we can't conquer her for a long time."
