Chapter 599

"Great Qin Ruozan?"

Wang Chong was secretly surprised in his heart, he hadn't seen this Wu Sizang for several days. The so-called those who come are not good, and those who are good do not come. It must not be good for Daqin Ruozan to come out at this time.

"Minister, don't come unharmed!"

Wang Chong spoke first, and his voice rumbled in all directions.

"Childe, it's been a long time. ”

Daqin Ruozan was breezy and calm, slowly waving the feather fan in his hand, smiling.

Seeing Daqin Ruozan's expression, Wang Chong's heart jumped suddenly, and he could still laugh at this time after losing troops and horses, and his expression was so calm, it was definitely strange.

"Daxiang is in a good mood!"

Wang Chong said quietly.

"Hehe, Childe has been living comfortably these days!"

Daqin Ruozan said with a smile, his expression becoming more and more relaxed.

"Don't hide it, I'm here to tell my son a word today. ”

"Oh?"

Wang Chong was thoughtful.

"The big picture is really leisurely!"

"Hehe, don't get me wrong, Ben is actually quite admirable to Childe. ”

The smile on Daqin Ruozan's face became thicker and thicker, and the fan in his hand became slower and slower.

"Whether it is the Lion City or this steel city, Childe's vision and talent are really impressive, it can be seen that Childe is prepared, but I want to ask, is Childe's water prepared enough?"

When he said the last sentence, Daqin Ruozan put away his feather fan and laughed.

Airplanes.

Wang Chong's pupils constricted, and his face changed suddenly.

In the distance, Daqin Ruozan's soldiers and horses disappeared without a trace again, leaving only his loud laughter, which resounded throughout the battlefield.

At the top of the mountain, Wang Chong was motionless, his expression was extremely solemn, and a light breeze blew, but his body was extremely cold.

"What's wrong with Childe?"

The eagle came over from behind and said with concern.

He found out!

- Wang Chong only had this thought left in his mind.

There is a huge flaw in all of Wang Chong's plans, and it can't be remedied, and that is the water source. Rainfall in the southwest is very rare, and heavy rains like the previous one are extremely rare.

However, the daily problem of nearly 100,000 people eating horses and chewing is a problem that has to be solved.

However, water is not the same as steel, and Wang Chong cannot transport water like steel. Moreover, in order to deal with Uszang and Mengshezhao, Wang Chong chose the location of the decisive battle in the mountains, which made it even more difficult for Wang Chong to obtain water sources.

This cannot be remedied in any way.

Wang Chong has been trying his best to hide this, but in the end, he was finally discovered by Daqin Ruozan!

"Call Mr. Zhang Shouzhi over.

Under the flagpole, Wang Cheng suddenly spoke.

"Childe. ”

Zhang Shouzhi came much faster than expected. Just behind Wang Chong, Zhang Shouzhi saluted respectfully. Zhang Shouzhi's face was still pale, but after falling asleep in his sleeping hole by the eagle, his complexion was much better after all.

Moreover, Wang Chong also gave him some pills that could strengthen his body and invigorate his blood and qi, but after all, he still had some effects.

"Senior Zhang, how much water do we have? Xu Qiqin: So how much has you prepared for us, and how long can you keep the army going?"

Wang Chong was silent for a long time and said.

"Miss Xu has been very attentive and prepared a large number of water bags for us. However, water is a special thing after all, and it can't be carried like an ordnance. In addition, we arrived here early, and according to Childe's instructions, we dug cisterns in many places on the top of the mountain. There was also a lot of heavy rain before. ”

"What's more, Childe asked us to arrive early, dig a water source near here, and stock up in advance before the war. So, in fact, our drinking water situation is quite good. ”

"In addition, in the previous night raid, we also looted a lot of water bags from the Mengshezhao people. ”

"However, the daily consumption of 80,000 or 90,000 horses is not a small number after all, and even if we store more water, it will be a drop in the bucket after all, and it will not be enough. ”

Zhang Shouzhi.

The water situation of the eighty or ninety thousand army was known only to him and Wang Chong. The rest is simply unknown. In order to avoid the panic that may be triggered. Water is not the same as food, it may seem inconspicuous, but it must be used every day.

Cooking on fire, daily drinking, and war horses are all indispensable.

Without an abundance of water, the army will have problems, and it will be more fatal than food. The key is that Wang Chong chose to fight a decisive battle in the mountains, which has already doomed the water source problem to become a congenital defect that cannot be remedied.

This is the fish and the bear's paw, you can't have it both ways.

Daqin Ruozan struck him in the hole of death.

"Tell me, just a few more days. ”

Wang Chong said calmly.

"Ten ,...... Twelve days!"

Zhang Shouzhi.

"How long?"

Wang Chong frowned and said again.

"Ten days, no, nine days at most!"

Zhang Shouzhi hesitated, gritted his teeth, and finally told the truth.

Swish!

The eagle on the side, Uncle Chen, and the guards and heralds on the top of the mountain, all of them changed their faces. Before, when Daqin Ruozan came out to talk to Wang Chong, everyone already felt that something was wrong.

But knowing that there were only nine days of drinking water, everyone knew that the matter was far more serious than they imagined.

For a moment, the atmosphere at the top of the mountain was solemn.

However, the whole mountain top was quiet, and everyone kept their mouths closed, not daring to say a word.

"So, in nine days, they will attack in a big way?"

The eagle said worriedly.

"It won't take nine, five, at most six days for them to attack. Daqin Ruozan will not wait until we run out of water to attack. ”

Wang Chong said in a deep voice.

Daqin Ruozan won't wait that long, and Ge Luofeng won't wait that long. In five days, there will be a noticeable water shortage in the army, and there will be obvious changes in the war horses and daily drinking.

If you don't know in advance, the army won't have anything. But Daqin Ruozan obviously knew this, so he deliberately met with him.

On the sixth day, things deteriorated further, and there was a noticeable shock in morale. The drinking of war horses and soldiers will be drastically reduced, and everyone can feel this change.

But Wang Chong couldn't help but do it.

Because once the strategy is changed and a large amount of water is consumed, then with the style of Daqin Ruozan, the strategy will definitely be changed and delayed until the seventh day, or Wang Chong will be found to continue to do this, and if it is delayed a little more, then the water consumption rate of the Annan Protector Army will be greatly advanced, and it will not last for nine days at all.

Once the army is empty, then what awaits the army will be defeated.

"Childe, why don't we start the water control of the army now? ”

Zhang Shouzhi said tentatively.

"No!"

Wang Chong said without hesitation:

"If we change our strategy now and our morale drops, we don't have to wait five days, and Dachen Ruozan will immediately attack. Also, let's not forget what we're here for?"

The eagles, including Uncle Chen's body on the side, were shocked and immediately reacted.

Wang Chong had told them before that there are always two levels of tactics and strategy in a war, and in tactics, everyone's goal is to resist the Mongol-Ukrainian coalition army and drag them here to death.

And the strategy -

The outcome of the war is by no means only determined by the victory or defeat of one or two battles, for Wang Chong, there is another factor that determines the victory or defeat of this southwest battle, that is, the "imperial court"!

"I don't know if there's any movement on the side of Uncle and King Song?"

Wang Chong said secretly in his heart.

Datang has indeed declined, people are at ease, and the long-term peace has made Datang gradually lose its original sharpness. Now in the Tang Dynasty, Wang Chong can be sure that the surrounding powerhouses are ready to move, and there are many hidden dangers.

The Turks, Goguryeo, Dashi, Tiaozhi, and the Western Regions, these former and potential opponents of the Tang Dynasty, are cooperating with Mongolia and Ukraine to contain the Tang Dynasty's forces.

But Datang is Datang after all, and the accumulation of hundreds of years is there.

Wang Chong believed that as long as he dragged the Mongol-Ukrainian coalition army for a while, the imperial court would be able to send a reinforcement sooner or later.

......

"How?"

Outside the camp tent of Wu Sizang, everyone gathered together, Daqin Ruozan and Ge Luofeng in front, Huoshu Guizang and Duan Gequan in the back, and then the other generals. Not far away, the mountains where the Tang Dynasty camped were like prehistoric giant beasts, lying in front of everyone.

But all eyes were on the smoke of the stove on the top of the mountain.

When the big * team has three meals a day, the commanders of both sides will appear on time and watch together. This has become a spectacle in the Mongolian and Ukrainian coalition forces.

"The amount of cooking smoke has not decreased at all compared to yesterday. The Tang people still haven't controlled water use!"

Feng Jiayi answered on the side.

He lived there for a period of time, and was involved in the art of war, Confucianism, and everything. Therefore, this way of judging the stove fire is also somewhat understood

"This is the genius of that Wang family!"

Da Qin Ruozan sighed, abandoning their respective positions, Da Qin Ruozan actually admired and appreciated Wang Chong a lot. This is definitely a fierce rival, and if he is allowed to grow up completely, even Daqin Ruozan does not know how far he will grow.

But because of this, Daqin Ruozan couldn't let him leave alive.

"The current big * team has doubts about what I said. If he starts controlling the water now, it will last longer, but the panic of the army will probably start now. And the further back in time, the more serious it becomes. That would be much worse than not using water control. ”

"But is it useful?"

The crown prince Fengjia is different.

"Of course it didn't work. ”

Daqin Ruozan laughed and said:

"It's useless to do whatever he does now, it's his death hole, no matter how smart he is. ”

"Lord, the time you have been waiting for has come, seven days at most, and that is when we launch a general attack. ”

Ge Luofeng laughed.
