Spoiling History: Starting from the Three Kingdoms
Chapter 97 Coordinated Operations
"Advancing both by land and water..." Guan Yu felt a little disappointed.
Affected by the light curtain, Guan Yu had already contacted the navy in advance, and it was from the perspective of the navy that he could better understand the power of these four words.
When Yizhou enters Jingzhou, it goes down the river, just like advancing by land and water. The navy can not only transport the baggage, but also send the navy directly into the hinterland of Jingzhou to harass.
With such frequent emergencies at the rear, how could Lu Xun on the front line hold on safely for half a year?
When Liu Bei read the letter written by Lu Xun to Sun Quan, he even buried his head under the table: What others are afraid of is advancing both by land and water, but in the end, he gave up the ship, playing into his own ambitions.
"Brother, why are you acting like this?" At this time, Guan Yu could only comfort his good brother:
"Now that our navy has taken shape, we will never be in trouble again."
"Brother, are you the same as Zilong?" Zhang Fei was curious: "The more soldiers there are, the harder it is to fight?"
Liu Bei and Zhao Yun opened their mouths to speak, but they seemed unable to refute, and both looked a little embarrassed.
Guan Yu glanced at his third brother with sympathy on his face.
[Lu Xun’s method of advancing waterways and cutting off the rear is not well recorded in historical materials, so we can look at it comprehensively.
Huang Quan's biography records: Taking advantage of the flow to break the siege, Nanjun was defeated, the first lord retreated, and the road was cut off.
The record in Zhu Ran's biography is even simpler: cut off the path behind him, and then prepare to break away.
When Lu Xun's grandson Lu Ji boasted about Yiling's victory, he said: "Xun's soldiers are like snakes compared to Shu. He said that the territory is so narrow that the head and tail cannot save each other. This is how powerful it is (Liu Liang's annotation)."
Combining the three records can reveal a basic truth:
Lu Xun had already found his chance to win from the beginning, and after Liu Bei ordered the navy to go ashore, he was even more intensively preparing his plan.
After discovering the reality of the Shu Han military camp, he ordered Zhu Ranshuo to go up the river and break into the rear of the front army while lighting a fire in the military camp.
As a result, Liu Bei's company not only lost effectiveness, but also became a burden. Unrest and fear spread rapidly through the company. The stalemate between the two armies resolved itself, and the Shu Han army quickly collapsed. 】
"It's terrible." Pang Tong couldn't help but said:
"A powerful person controls power because of advantage. General Lu Xun will not show off his strength in the face of the lord's strong army. The battlefield of Yiling Gorge Road is the battlefield chosen by this general, and the opportunity for the decisive battle will also be determined by this battle."
"From the beginning to the end, we have controlled power according to the situation, so we have become invincible."
"Master Pang, why do you have to say so much?" Zhang Fei concluded:
"To put it bluntly, Lu Xun has the final say on where to fight, and when to fight. Lu Xun still has the final say. How can I win?"
After such a simple statement, the generals immediately understood: since it is the battlefield chosen by the opponent, the opponent must have an advantage.
"Then what if we encounter the same situation as our lord?" The generals discussed one after another.
"Build grain roads to prevent fires, and they will disappear after autumn," Guan Yu said.
"Make the athletes shout insults every day in order to see their morale collapse and lead the troops to march to the camp." Zhang Fei said.
Zhao Yun recalled what Guangmu had said before about the Taizu and said:
"Send a group of elite soldiers to cross the mountains to harass the rear and force the opponent to fight."
The three generals gave three different answers. As for Wei Yan, no one was demanding because there were not enough positions.
Liu Bei was very pleased: all three brothers were reliable.
[And all this was clearly seen by the unlucky Egg Yolk Quan on the north bank of the river.
He didn't know who the Wu general was who "taken the current to cut off the siege". He only knew that his retreat had been cut off.
Huang Quan was very ambitious and did not want to surrender to Wu, so he had to go north to surrender to Cao Cao. Cao Jun, who had been watching the theater in the sun for more than half a year, looked confused:
This Huang Quan was an important Shu Han minister who secured Hanzhong for Liu Bei. He was a real big fish, and he even brought tens of thousands of elite soldiers and baggage to surrender!
Cao Jun just ate hot pot and sang songs, and completed this year's target.
What can be additionally mentioned here is that the Shu Han also believed that Huang Quan's surrender to Cao was a helpless move.
His son Huang Chongzhong entered the court as an official, and later followed Zhuge Zhan to fight against Deng Ai, and died in the battle with Zhang Fei's grandson Zhang Zun. 】
This is really unlucky, but what can it do?
"Huang Quan didn't fail me, but I failed him a lot." Liu Bei sighed.
"My lord sent him to lead the army in Jiangbei to guard against Cao's thieves because of his trust." Pang Tong stood up and comforted:
"Now that the company's camp is broken, my lord has too much time to take care of himself, how can he take care of so much?"
"His father had no choice but to surrender to Cao Cao, and his son died in battle and martyred his country." Zhang Fei glanced at him:
"We Shu Han are all good men!"
"Huang Quan is a man of great thought and elegance." Jian Yong praised:
"Guangmu mentioned his name before, so many people asked about him when he came to Chengdu. Now he is the master of the book."
"Another useless talent." Liu Bei understood: "Liu Jiyu is really lucky." His tone was full of envy.
[Another evidence that Lu Xun cut off the navy is that Liu Bei fled back to Baidi City almost alone.
In the era of cold weapons, the army could be eliminated or surrendered in an organized manner only if its retreat was cut off.
Typical examples include Yuan Shao's retreat in the Battle of Guandu, Guan Erye's retreat in the Battle of Xiangfan, etc.
Moreover, this battle is very similar to the Incheon landing battle. At that time, the North Korean army faced the South Korean army with overwhelming force, and the battle line was stretched very long.
The U.S. military landed at Incheon and relied on coordinated operations by sea, land and air to penetrate the center line and cut off the North Korean army's retreat, causing the North Korean army to quickly collapse under a favorable situation.
If it were not for the intervention of our volunteer army, the Korean army would probably be wiped out by the establishment, causing the situation on the Korean Peninsula to be irreversible. 】
Pang Tong's face was shocked, but looking around, everyone's expressions were as usual. It was obvious that they were used to it, and they were even talking softly.
"It seems that this war in later generations was caused by the vassal state." Huang Yueying frowned and speculated:
"I think this country affiliated with the US military wants to attack the country adjacent to our Han Dynasty and carry out the old deeds of destroying Guo in a false way. But I don't know where this North Korea is?"
Kong Ming recalled the slips he had read and said:
"The Zhou Dynasty destroyed the Shang Dynasty and granted King Zhou the title of Marquis of Korea. His fiefdom was located in Liaodong."
"North Korea is located in the middle of the country, connecting the Central Plains and extending into the sea. The name of the peninsula is appropriate."
"Emperor Wu destroyed Wei Man and established four counties. After the death of General Gongsun, there is little news about him."
Why are there so many complications? Jian Yong shook his head: "Another Chinese man stands up for himself."
Because of these completely novel news, no one cared that Liu Bei only escaped with his own life, which made Liu Bei relieved.
Seeing Pang Tong who was not adapting well, Liu Bei smiled and comforted:
"That's what the light curtain is like. It occasionally reveals information about future generations. Kong Mingqi is very different."
Pang Tong nodded in understanding, and heard Liu Bei ask again: "Shi Yuan may guess, what is the meaning of the moved territory?"
On the other side, the generals' attention was focused on the coordination of sea, land and air. Wei Yan's eyebrows were already beating wildly and he could no longer maintain it.
"The air force is the thing that can fly in the sky in the light curtain before, right?" Zhang Fei guessed a little, and then smacked his lips regretfully:
"I thought that future generations would know how to grow wings."
Guan Yu was stroking his beard and thinking:
"The navy...is the future direction of the navy?"
"Multiple arms coordination is also the direction of future wars?"
[However, in the Battle of Yiling, the success of this amphibious operation only ensured that Lu Xun was temporarily invincible.
If you want to truly win, there is still a very hard bone to gnaw on: that is the sixty-year-old Zhaolie Emperor Liu Bei, who never admits defeat.
Lu Xun relied on arson to disrupt the morale of the army and cut off the retreat of the navy to defeat more than forty battalions. He killed Zhang Nan, Feng Xishamoko, and Du Lu, Liu Ning and other generals were forced to surrender.
At this time, the situation has slipped towards an irreversible abyss, but Liu Bei still plans to give up his last ditch effort. 】
Thank you [Mason] for the generous reward of a piece of horseshoe gold. I am so grateful~
