"You are right, then you continue to talk about where the Qin army is weak. Mi Wen asked, she looked quite proud, and seemed to be very satisfied with Ye Shikai's answer.

"Go west to Ba County and Shu County. Ye Shikai said lightly.

"General Ye's words are wrong, there are indeed no Qin soldiers in Ba County and Shu County, but there are mostly mountainous areas, and transportation is not convenient, in addition, the money and grain population there is far less than that of the Central Plains, although the place is much larger, but it is not useful. One of the strategists stepped forward and retorted.

"Your Excellency is short-sighted, although Shu is not as prosperous as the Central Plains, but it is the country of abundance, fertile fields for thousands of miles, rich in products, inexhaustible soldiers, horses, money and grain, if the lord occupies Shu County, it can be used as a base in the rear. Ye Shikai said coldly, when he used to read "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" in his spare time, he was very interested in "Longzhong Decision", which is a strategy, but he never expected that what he had just read before would now be implemented.

"Moreover, the roads in Shu County are rugged, and the passes are dangerous, although they are not conducive to transporting materials, but they are natural barriers, and it is difficult to enter from the outside. ”

In fact, the most important reason, Ye Shikai did not say that according to history, in a few years, Liu Bang will dominate the world in only five years with Shudi and Hanzhong......

Thinking of this, Ye Shikai suddenly felt a little uneasy, if Mi Wen did this, would history still be like the original, should it not be changed like this, then wouldn't he be "playing big".

"Alright, that's all for today, everyone is gone. Mi Wen waved his hand and slowly stood up, his actions a little lazy.

Backroom.

"Well, today you have offended all my people. Qi Wen poured a cup of tea with his own hands and handed it to Ye Shikai.

"That's no way, who asked the lord to tell me your opinion, then I have to speak freely. Ye Shikai waved his hand, and when he said it, Mi Wen deliberately asked him to speak in the hall, and he didn't know what it meant.

"Today's words in the palace, are you talking nonsense, or have you thought about it in your heart. Mi Wen's face changed, and he suddenly asked.

"It's kind of from the heart, it's not counted, it's just my personal thoughts. ”

"You have some truth in what you say, although the population of Shu is not as good as that of the Central Plains, but the Central Plains has been fighting many times over the years, in comparison, Shu is much more peaceful, and a lot of materials should be hoarded. ”

"The most important thing is that the Qin army there is still a comfortable soldier, who has been in the battle formation for a long time, and the combat power is not high, and the persimmon is still soft and pinched. Ye Shikai teased.

"Looks like you know the art of war. ”

"Actually, I don't understand it at all. Ye Shikai laughed out loud.

"What, how is this possible, if you don't understand anything, how can you still talk the truth. Qi Wen said in shock, looking at him suspiciously.

"Secret. Of course, Ye Shikai will not say that these are "history", and even if he says Qiwen, he will not believe it.

"I am your lord, and you dare to hide it from me. Qi Wenjiao said angrily, although her brows were slightly furrowed, her tone was more like her girlfriend complaining shyly.

"It's all a secret, and besides, I see that among the strategists under you, there are many people who have no real talent but can talk about it. Ye Shikai sneered, of course, there are a few people who are indiscriminate, but it can't be said that Mi Wen doesn't know how to use people, there will be these people in the forces of any party.

"Actually, those generals of yours are not bad, their tone is heroic, they are happy people at first glance, military generals are not afraid of death, it would be better if they had more resourcefulness. Ye Shikai said lightly.

"But...... I think that among these generals under your command, there should be many people who are aware of the current situation, and sending troops to the Central Plains now is tantamount to gambling. ”

"That's strange, since they know it, why did they take the initiative to ask for war and attack the Central Plains. ”

"As military generals, they naturally want to make achievements, and the battlefield is the best place, so of course they will take the initiative to fight, even if the outcome is unpredictable. Ye Shikai explained.

"I see. ”

"You said that you will fight Ba County and Shu County first, there is indeed some truth, even if we send troops to get Shu land, it is difficult to move Shu Road, it is difficult to mobilize soldiers and horses, and besides, you said that you want to accumulate strength and then crusade against Tyranny Qin, then when will it be. ”

"Mi Wen, you are only in your twenties now, even if you wait for ten years, what if you accumulate strength, even if the Central Plains is not defeated, at least you can keep Chu Land. ”

"Those who have achieved great things, how can they shrink their heads and tails, if ten years later, what if the Qin army quells the civil strife, wouldn't they be able to kill us with all their might, only in troubled times can we change the dynasty. Mi Wen got up and refuted, she is an ambitious, powerful woman, with great ambitions in her heart, and she can indeed achieve a hegemony in this troubled world, but if she wants to become an "emperor", she is still a little behind.

"The world is peaceful, and there is indeed no possibility of an uprising, but if it is just to change the dynasty and plunge the world into chaos, I will never agree. ”

Between the two arguing, the tea was cold, but the "smell of gunpowder" in the air seemed to be much heavier......

Ye Shikai proposed to enter Shu and accumulate strength to observe the changes in the world, it seems that this is "delaying" the time of the troubled times, but at least it can keep the peace of the people on one side, on the contrary, if you attack the Central Plains now, after the defeat, Mi Wen will definitely use up the people and financial resources of Chu, and the final result can only be to make the troubled times continue.

......................................................

Ye Shikai and Mi Wen talked not very happily, since they came to Chudi, the two often had disagreements, most of them were about the next strategy and some "principled issues", many nights, Ye Shikai recalled the time when the two first met, although there was also a misunderstanding, but later they also became friends, they often drank wine and talked about love, drinking tea and talking about Taoism, at that time the days were easy and happy, but after becoming a "monarch", the relationship between the two became tense.

Yefu.

"Ling'er, there is something I want to tell you. Ye Shikai thought of Mi Wen's military order, and went to Nanjun within three months, his heart was a little gloomy, of course he wanted to stay with He Linghan, but this was a military order after all.

Every time he stepped into the door, there would be an urge to "resign and go home" in his heart, and then take He Linghan to a paradise where no one was around, live a stable life, regardless of the war outside, and no matter who rules the world now, but this is just an impulse, he knows the consequences of doing so.
