For the generals of Xuzhou, the Huainan Army's advance arrangements for the Heluo area were something they had never experienced before. They were not unexpected, but could not do it. It was like tying people to the punishment rack in advance, waiting for the last sword to slash and kill. The pleasure was simply fascinating.

While feeling the differences in the use of troops between the two towns, the generals of the Xuzhou army were also full of confidence in the battle of Heluo, and were even more enthusiastic than the generals of the Huainan army.

Once the chief clerk of the Huainan Army introduced the arrangement of this site, a general of Xuzhou stood up and said with a strong voice: "Taobao is a thief who lost his master and fled his slave. He was lucky enough to steal Heluo. He had previously been able to survive in the world because of a strong enemy who was wandering outside. Now all the constraints of all parties are no longer there, and the danger of Heluo has become a dilemma. There is no need for Liang Gong to come in person. The last generals must fight and kill the thief in the old capital!"

The other generals also agreed at this moment. These military leaders are naturally amazing figures in front of ordinary people. They are in charge of thousands of people, and sometimes even Taichung's imperial edicts can be ignored.

But this does not mean that they are completely worried and have no worries. The survival pressure they face is even heavier than that of ordinary people. Especially Fang Bo, a young man like Shen Zhezi, who has a deep foundation in Jiangdong, has a very high court power, and is in charge of heavy troops in Jiangbei, is simply their natural nemesis.

In front of Shen Zhezi, all the capital they could be proud of seemed barren and powerless, and could not even escape. Like the previous years, those who were in conjunction with each other and fought against outsiders, or stayed in the door and refused to respond to the king's order, they did not work in front of the Huainan Army, because the strength of the Huainan Army was far better than that of them, and choosing to fight was the only way to do so.

As for joining the Jiangdong Principal Sect, let alone whether they have that kind of channel, even if there is, which of the ruling regiments in Jiangdong can definitely surpass the Shen family?

It is true that the Shen family is much worse than the Wang family of Langya in its heyday, but those who were vagrants were defeated by the general power of the king. But the Shen family, especially the Liang Duke Shen Zhezi, are the great heroes recognized by the Jin Dynasty in the north and south. Even Duke Xi supported him to enter Xuzhou. What qualifications and reasons do they have to oppose it?

To put it bluntly, they can't even find a partner in the lead-up to the enemy. Especially when the current situation of Jin Dynasty's great prosperity and the Hu power is gradually declining, the only clear way before them is to not have too many ideas and occupy a favorable position in the new order to be formed in Jiangbei as much as possible.

The best way to achieve this intention is undoubtedly military merits. As long as you have military merits, they will be able to guarantee whether or not Liang Gong takes over Xuzhou in the future.

They had missed the battle in Liyang before, and it seems that after the Battle of Heluo, there will be basically no large-scale war this year. So at this moment, the generals of Xuzhou really have no idea of ​​waiting and watching, because this can be said to be their only chance.

Although at present, the Huainan Army has almost paved the early road to recover Heluo, and they have only actively sought to fight now, and it is inevitable that they will pick peaches, but it is better to make statements than to have no statements.

Shen Zhezi also smiled at the enthusiastic request of the generals in Xuzhou. He had no intention of the Huainan Army to completely complete all the wars. If the Xuzhou Army was completely isolated, it would be harmful or unfavorable for him to succeed Xi Jian in the future.

Although the Huainan Army is no longer afraid of Xuzhou's military leaders joining each other, they are all part of the royal army after all. If they can solve the problem with more ease, they should try their best to avoid complete feuds.

What's more, although the Xuzhou army has not performed well in recent years as well as the Huainan Army, before the rise of the Huainan Army, the Huainan River relied entirely on the stubborn resistance of these soldiers to maintain the front line of the Huainan River, so that Jiangdong could avoid direct military invasion.

Shen Zhezi was unwilling to give up even the refugees in Hebei, let alone the soldiers in Xuzhou who have both military achievements and combat effectiveness. Although the military leaders in Xuzhou each had their own personal plans, there was no principled conflict between them.

As long as a candidate who can convince the public and come up with a relatively reasonable profit distribution plan, the military leaders of Xuzhou can naturally be combined into a powerful combat force. It was after meeting these premises that the Northern Palace Army was able to appear on the historical stage and become a straw for the Jin Dynasty to survive. Then, after being illegally used, the Jin Dynasty finally ended.

He raised his hand and first interrupted the request for battle by the Xuzhou generals, and then asked someone to hang up the Heluo map. In addition to clearly marking some passes, the map also includes the military distribution map of the enemy and us.

The distribution of troops of the Huainan Army is naturally very clear. More than 10,000 troops in the south are located in Yique, and in addition to besieging Yique Fortress, they are also distributed among some small passes around.

Another key point is Chenggao. In addition to the troops outside the Hulao City, Xingyang, which is not far away, has also become the gathering place of the army. Between Chenggao and Xingyang, it is Ao Cang, the original important place.

During the Han Dynasty, including the Three Kingdoms period, Ao Cang was an important storage and transportation center and an important Yellow River ferry crossing. However, now Ao Cang's status has declined, and the warehouses have long been empty, just as a gathering place for the navy.

As for the enemy's troops, it is about 20,000 to 30,000, and the specific distribution of its troops can be roughly calculated. The Yique guards in the south were about 2,000, but there were nearly 3,000 mobile troops operating nearby before and after the siege.

There were more than 3,000 defenders in Chenggao, but this was of no reference significance, because the enemy could reinforce at any time. Moreover, with these 3,000 people alone, they could rely on the ground to resist the army stubbornly without ensuring sufficient food and food.

In addition, in the Mangshan and Hanoi areas opposite Luoyang, Han Huang's cavalry had swept here before and found about 3,000 enemy troops. However, some of this part of the enemy troops had retreated to Xiaopingjin in the river, while the other part was still cruising near Mangshan.

In this way, Taobao's main army should still be mainly staying in Luoyang. This is also in line with the outside world's understanding of its army. The defeated army lived in Heluo, and there was no sufficient cohesion to lay outside and remain undispersed. It could only gather together for substantial personal control to maintain the entire army.

"Although there are great differences in the forces between each other, you should also remember not to underestimate the enemy. First, Luoyang has the danger of the eight passes. If it goes from the outside, it will definitely be a division of troops. If there is no response, it will be difficult to achieve a flat push. Secondly, although Taobao's army is a remnant army, it should not be underestimated. In the early years of Jie Kingdom, many stables were set up in Hanoi, and most of the animal power was obtained by Taobao, because there were many cavalrymen in his army..."

Shen Zhezi solemnly reminded the generals not to underestimate the enemy. The unique terrain of Heluo can bring too many tactical changes. If the armies advance rashly, Taobao's army can completely defeat them with its strong mobility and relying on the vast depth between Heluo.

Therefore, although Shen Zhezi arranged many dangerous passes around Heluo, he did not rely on his large number of troops and divided his troops into the army. The Battle of Sarhu in the late Ming Dynasty was an extremely typical negative example, and the combat area of ​​Heluo was only large and large compared to the Sarhu War Zone. It was much more difficult to achieve strategic cooperation in such a vast area.

In "The Strategy of the Three Kingdoms", Cao Cao established a policy to completely control the dangers. On the one hand, he was against the situation where the princes of Shandong fought on their own and had no subordinates. On the other hand, his tactical intention was to only trap and not fight, and all parties would block them. He would not fight with them. He would not fight with them in order to obey and kill Dong Zhuo.

Shen Zhezi now divides his dangers, and does not expect these divisions to attack Heluo, but blocks the passage of Taobao's army. As for his real killing move, it is still on the Yellow River.

The arrival of Xuzhou Army brought many medium and large warships, which made the advantage of the Jin army, which was already dominant, more obvious. Moreover, it is now late autumn, and the flow of the Yellow River has slowed down, making it much smaller and more difficult to attack through traversal flow.

With the current prosperity of the king's boats, tens of thousands of troops can be deployed to the bank of the Yellow River at one time, and there are many chariots in the army that restrain the cavalry from attacking half a ferry. The buffer zone between Luoyang and the Yellow River is already small. Once the Taobao army cannot withstand the first round of the Jin army, it will soon reach the gates of the city!

"This time, although we did not step directly into the palace, after Yongjia, the royal army rarely returned to the old capital of Heluo. Even if we advance, we would go around. This time, the army gathered 100,000 in Hejin, and its strength was achieved. Only by fighting quickly, we would achieve complete success!"

When Shen Zhezi spoke this, he stood up from the middle of the table with his hand on his sword and said solemnly: "At the moment of war, there will be no decline. I just want you to remember that this battle is related to the destiny of the country. I am the governor of the army here and share only two things with you. One is to pay great merits and the other is to be ruthless in the magic sword!"

After hearing this, the generals were all stern and stood up and roared, "Share the special merits with the Grand Commander!"
