Chapter 506 How to Expedition Northern

Wen Anzhi let out a light voice.

He also heard about the combat methods of the old Western Army and the Shun Army.

These monks who became monks halfway through did not have the same concerns as regular soldiers.

If you can beat it, you will fight it, if you can't beat it, you will run away.

He even took the initiative to sell his flaws and lure the enemy into the bait.

In their eyes, there is no burden or concern, and everything is aimed at winning.

Of course, this is not wrong on the battlefield. Wen Anzhi still wants to hear Li Dingguo teach his experience.

"You keep talking."

"Yes, Futai."

Li Dingguo paused and tried to calm down his mood.

"Now the Tartars are weak, we have no reason to sell their flaws. So taking the initiative is the only choice. But this attack must be just beautiful, breaking the Tartars' muscles and bones to defeat their confidence. Even if they cannot defeat the enemy with one blow, they must be beaten to destroy them."

Li Dingguo's words were very decisive and domineering, which caused the generals present to nod.

"How to arrange troops in detail?"

Wen Anzhi asked.

"Futai can first use hot air balloon teams to burn the Tartars' granary to cut off their grain. Then send the main force to siege the city and fight the Tartars to trap the Tartars."

Li Dingguo was prepared and blurted out.

“This is a good idea.”

Wen Anzhi nodded slightly.

Besieging the city and fighting aid has been a brilliant plan since ancient times.

As long as the absolute strength can steadily overwhelm the opponent's besiege and attack aid, there will be no problem.

The strength of this refers not only to troops, but also to food and grass.

If the guard city has enough food and supplies, they will not panic, and at worst they will be consuming it.

You don't let me out, and I don't let you in.

But if the city guards are short of food and grass, trouble will come.

Their mood will become more and more impatient and anxious. After the food is out of stock, the anger will burst out instantly.

They will instinctively search for anything that can be eaten. First, the mice will eat people when they eat them all.

Although eating people is a shameful thing, most people will choose to die in the face of life and death, and not die.

At first, eat women and children first because women and children are the weakest. Then they start eating the elderly.

After the elderly eat up, they start eating strong veins

Just thinking about this process makes people feel creepy.

When the Tartars besieged the Daling River, the soldiers in the city did this. When they finally surrendered, there were almost no living creatures in the city except for the soldiers.

Although this method is very radical and may lead to many innocent people being eaten by the Tartars. Wen Anzhi knew very well that this was the best way.

"But it is not easy to cross the vast mountains and ridges."

Wen Anzhi did not expect to rely on hot air balloons to send all the soldiers to the front of Hanzhong City.

This thing can only be used occasionally to create surprise attacks. If you use too much, the effect will be greatly reduced.

"There will be a plan at the end."

Li Dingguo clasped his fists with his hands.

"Tell me, look."

"The Tartars will definitely set up heavy troops in the dangerous mountain passes everywhere, so we can send people to pretend to be merchants who secretly communicate with them."

Wen Anzhi couldn't help but lit up when he heard this sentence.

"What do you mean is to send someone to take the initiative to contact Donglu for the sale of grain?"

Wen Anzhi asked.

"The line between the Tartars and grain traders in Chengdu is broken, and they will definitely seek other possibilities. If we buried a hidden stake at this time, the effect will definitely be very good."

Li Dingguo paused and continued: "Maybe they were just interested at the beginning. But if they waited until the hot air balloon team burned the Tartars' granary with a torch, they would be anxious."

This time everyone looked at Li Dingguo with admiration.

It turns out that this is not just a clever plan but a chain of plans.

The strategy itself echoes the burning granary before, allowing the Tartars to step into the abyss step by step.

Perhaps when the Tartars were trapped in the mud, they didn't know that they had killed themselves.

"This method is good, but you have to choose a suitable candidate."

Li Dingguo pondered: "There are a few candidates in the heart of the general. I wonder if it can be seen by Master Futai."

"Let me tell me."

Wen Anzhi said slowly and slowly.

"The businessman's name is Qicheng. He often does grain business between Sichuan and Yunnan, and has rich resources."

Li Dingguo's tone was very plain, but Wen Anzhi believed that this must be unusual.

As Zhang Xianzhong's adopted son, Li Dingguo stayed in Sichuan as a ruler for a considerable part of his time.

Although Li Dingguo is not as good as Sun Kewang in terms of internal affairs, it does not mean that he has made no achievements.

Especially when it comes to military ration transfer, he must have dealt with grain merchants more or less.

Wen Anzhi guessed that this Qicheng was the grain merchant who cooperated with Li Dingguo at the time.

However, Wen Anzhi did not mean to ask the bottom line.

Li Dingguo has surrendered, so some things should not be forced too hard. Otherwise, it will easily cause discomfort in Li Dingguo and the effect will be counterproductive.

"Is this person reliable?"

"Absolutely reliable, I will be willing to use the head of the people as a guarantee."

Li Dingguo said confidently.

Wen Anzhi pushed his hand: "There is no need to issue a military order. I believe in you, so I will leave this matter to you."

Li Dingguo was overjoyed when he heard this. Since surrendering, he has been thinking about how to gain Wen Anzhi's trust, and now he has finally found an opportunity.

"I will obey the order!"

"There is another thing to be said in advance."

Wen Anzhi glanced at everyone and said firmly: "This Northern Expedition is not allowed to kill good people. If you find out, you will not be punished!"

Wen Anzhi also knew the joy of the old army.

To them, the matter of killing Liang and taking credit for it seemed normal.

But this is absolutely unacceptable to Wen Anzhi.

In his opinion, the difference between humans and animals is that humans have bottom lines while animals do not.

But if they, as an official army, kill innocent people indiscriminately and make achievements in order to make a mere head, what is the difference between them and livestock?

Wen Anzhi didn't want to investigate the previous incident anymore.

But he must now set a tone, and those who dare to kill good people from now on must be severely punished.

Otherwise, where is his prestige, the image of the Ming Dynasty's official army, and the military discipline?

"I will obey the order!"

Everyone held their fists and took the order.

Regardless of their true thoughts, they must accept the order without hesitation in such occasions. Otherwise, it would be a challenge to Wen'an's prestige.

In short, Wen Anzhi is still a civil servant who can convince them. He is very different from other civil servants. He knows basic marching and fighting things. There will be no situation where laymen command experts.

Many of Wen Anzhi's decisions are also very insightful, which makes people sincerely admire him.

In addition, Wen Anzhi also treats all generals and soldiers equally and will not treat them differently because of their identity and background.

In this case, as long as you do not touch your own personal interests, no general will violate Wen Anzhi's will.
