Chapter 210: Hit the Weakness
After clarifying the situation of Lin Hu in front of us, Zhao Xing felt confident: "I understand that we are in a disadvantageous state of military operations against the rebels. But don't be discouraged. As long as we fight for a chance to breathe and let the Hetao region provide us with a steady stream of food and grass, we can attack the capital department again and regain the initiative in the war."
When Lin Hu Wang heard Zhao Xing say this, he sighed: "What the helper said is very reasonable, but we can't do it. We are constantly moving south and want to capture my fundamental Hetao area. As long as he attacks, we must send troops to intercept it. In winter, the river water (Yellow River) is frozen, and they will attack, disrupting our foundation and not getting a chance to breathe. What can we do?
Zhao Xing smiled: "This is our passiveness, because of our military failures."
"Who said no, but we and Bendu fought and fought small battles, and we had a victory or defeat. Once a big battle, we were not as big as Bendu, so we were often defeated miserably. For this reason, I had to avoid a decisive battle with him as much as possible to preserve our strength. But the initiative in the war was on Bendu. If you want to avoid a big battle, you can't even stop the war and take a breath."
Zhao Xing really felt frustrated for the energetic King Lin Hu back then. How could he get to this point in just two years?
Zhao Xing looked at the embarrassing King Lin Hu, and needed him to continue to be in chaos and give himself time, so he used the method of provoking him: "If the king gives up, I ask the king to send an envoy. With the king's ability to fight, I use this as a threat to ask everyone to reward a piece of land for their elderly care."
King Lin Hu hated Ben to the core. When he heard this, he was furious: "What do you mean by helping me? Even if I commit suicide by defeating and committing suicide, I will never bow to that bastard."
Zhao Xing clapped: "As long as the king is so determined, I will have a way to let the king get a breather and make the king come back."
Hearing this, King Lin Hu threw down the wine pot, his turbid eyes lit up again, and he grabbed Zhao Xing's hand: "I knew that there would definitely be a way to crack it. Help me, please come quickly, I will do everything respectful."
Zhao Xing felt that King Lin Hu grabbed his hands, slippery and greasy, cold and sweaty, and trembled slightly uncontrollably. According to traditional Chinese medicine theory, this is called severe alcoholic liver, kidney damage, stomach deficiency and coldness, heart obstruction, spleen muscle weakness, and neurasthenia. In other words, this person is already terminally ill.
It was just that the spiritual pillar of hatred for Bendu did not fall down, so he did not fall down. It seemed that he really had to cultivate and adjust his 50,000 troops to complete the training and destroy Zhongshan and die again.
Taking out the caught hand, Zhao Xing said confidently: "I wonder when the rebels in Bendu will launch a large-scale attack on us?"
King Lin Hu frowned and replied: "In summer, the water of the rivers surges and boats are hard to cross. As long as we guard a few important ferries, we can block their pace of going south. The key is in winter. Once winter comes, the herdsmen in the northern desert have the habit of migrating south to the winter. They don't have to deliberately gather people to go south to cross the ice of the river and launch an attack on us."
Zhao Xing nodded: "Since that's the case, I can only rely on a fire note to prevent the rebels of Bendu from going south to destroy our foundation. In this way, within three or two years, we can raise our energy and launch a counterattack."
King Lin Hu and Qin Mo opened their mouths in surprise. They could not understand why Zhao Xing could stop the whistling of hundreds of thousands of rebels from the south with just a fire note.
Zhao Xing expressed his plan: "In summer, we will guard several ferries to block the rebels from crossing the river. Once autumn comes, the grass witheres and yellows, we will use this small fire skewer to burn a huge isolation belt along the north bank of the Yellow River, so that there will be no grass in that area. At that time, I will see how the rebels in Bendu dare to cross this isolation belt and break into our Hetao area."
As soon as this plan was made, King Lin Hu and Qin Mo looked at each other and opened their mouths in surprise again.
But this time, the wide mouth was wrong with the last time, and then the two of them slapped their palms hard, and they had to admire the great wisdom of helping each other.
King Lin Hu laughed again. This was the happiest laugh since the rebellion. He really laughed happily. "This will solve our knots and difficulties. From this moment on, what I worry about is that it should be."
The reason why King Lin Hu was so happy was because he knew his family best. Zhao Xing's small fire note just burned out the most fragile tendon of the Bendu rebels.
The reason why nomadic peoples launched wars is relatively simple is that their cavalry advantage is howling, so that the Central Plains army, dominated by infantry, could not catch up or catch, and could only be passively beaten.
Another very important thing is their logistics supply.
The people of the Central Plains launched a war. When a soldier in front fought, he needed at least five of them to carry out logistics transportation. Often, the failure of a war was not because the soldiers on the front line did not fight bravely to fight the enemy, but because they were dragged down by the huge logistics consumption.
Everyone has always believed that nomadic peoples have almost no logistics, and their solution to the logistics is to loot. In fact, this is a big mistake. Because people with a little bit of military intelligence can clearly realize that it is simply a fool to ensure the logistics of tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of troops by robbery alone.
The wars of nomadic peoples also have logistical services, but their logistics is very simple, that is, following the army, a large number of cattle and sheep are marching. While they follow the army, they grazed along the way, which is the food for living. The robbery is just a slight supplement.
Zhao Xing's method hit Bendu's weakness.
North of the Yellow River, take advantage of the dry food and the grass withered and yellow, and a large enough isolation zone will be burned. Then the rebels in Bendu will lose their hay, starve and lose their combat effectiveness. The cattle and sheep that accompany the army will lose their feed.
The war horses have no combat power and the logistical cattle and sheep cannot keep up. How can we fight this battle?
King Lin Hu, who became excited by seeing hope, suddenly felt refreshed all over his body, and all kinds of difficult diseases on his body seemed to disappear in a blink of an eye.
This is what traditional Chinese medicine advocates, and the reason why it is divided into 50% of the spirit and medicine is what people often say, it is the same principle that good medicine cannot cure people who want to die.
When this spirit is improved, his thinking will become quicker: "This plan for helping others can not only stop the rebels from going south, but also stop the herdsmen on the grasslands in the desert, the north and the desert, and the winter." Then he sneered, full of resentful curses: "You guys who betray me, your cattle, sheep and horses, will die in groups on the deserted Gobi deserts in the desert where the grass is missing, and your old men, women and children will tremble and be frozen to death in the irresistible cold winter. Hahaha, within three or five years, I don't have to punish you, and I will live in the heaven of immortality." Then I stood there and pointed to the north: "Bendu, when you do not have the support of the herdsmen, when your rebellion tribes die, what else do you use to fight me? You are dead."
