Chapter 40: How to Fight

Han Jin laughed and said, "What do I want to say, in fact, our previous thoughts are the same, breaking the beam is the key, but, how to break the key?" ā€

I looked at him and continued: "It's simple, gather all your forces on the Western Front. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½ā€

"This." The Long Chuan general looked at me suspiciously: "Isn't it too risky?" ā€

"Of course, this is a secret military arrangement, on the surface, of course, to make the enemy think that we still have a large army on the northern and eastern fronts."

King Xiang kept looking at me with flashing eyes, and suddenly asked, "Good girl, have you ever heard of the Yin and Yang family?" ā€

I looked at Gu Yin and nodded at him.

He turned to King Xiang and said: "The good girl is the Yin and Yang family, and the little nephew has never revealed this identity for the sake of the girl's safety, and hopes that His Royal Highness will forgive his sins." ā€

King Xiang pinched his round chin in his hand, looked at me with small round eyes, and nodded slowly: "No wonder, no wonder." ā€

"When Da Meng dominated the world, there was a saying that the merit was in the Yin and Yang family. But later, King Meng reprimanded the Yin and Yang family for bewitching the public, and later generations do not know how powerful this Yin and Yang family is. The good girl's opinion is quite reasonable, but if all the troops are gathered on the front line, it is still too risky after all. What about the opinion of the virtuous nephew? ā€

He didn't quite believe me, and I wasn't committal.

Gu Yin looked at King Xiang and said loudly: "I absolutely believe in the good girl." ā€

Han Jin took a sip of the teacup, looked at the King of Xiang and said: "Your Highness, what my nephew means, I still have to leave some preparations at the Mengyue border, after all, this bet is too big, if the bet is lost, there is no way out for Xiang to retreat." ā€

This means that complaining about Gu Yin and blindly believing in me is equivalent to betting on the Zhuang of Hunan and gambling on his life, rather than making careful plans.

Sure enough, it was the one who stabbed the knife secretly.

Gu Yin's face remained unchanged, and he said with a cold face: "For extraordinary enemies, you should use extraordinary strategies." And in every battle on the battlefield, there is no such thing as defeat and victory. ā€

I also interjected: "For Xiangguo, there is only one chance, and that is to break Liang's dream of winning Hunan." If it succeeds, the dilemma of Hunan will be temporarily solved, if it does not work, even if there are 50,000 troops to resist Bangladesh on the northern front, Baling will not be able to escape. ā€

The hall fell silent, King Xiang had a bitter face, and he grabbed a little goat beard on his round chin and didn't speak, Han Jin looked up at the sky, as if thinking about countermeasures.

Long Chuan lowered his head and pondered for a long time, raised his head, and said: "His Royal Highness the Prince of Shu and the good girl came all the way, and I think I know a lot about the good girl, so I made this judgment.

The subordinates believed that the Hunan army was less than the Liang army in terms of combat strength, and only through the superiority of troops could the gap be filled. Therefore, according to what the good girl said, leave a small number of troops on the northeast and northeast fronts, lay out suspicious formations, and then ambush the army on the western front. ā€

Han Jinshi nodded and said, "Then from the two northeast lines, each will transfer 10,000 troops over." 100,000 against 100,000, Brother Gu has no problem. ā€

It seems that they have agreed that Gu Yin will lead the battle against the Shangliang army.

Before Gu Yin could speak, King Xiang patted the armrest of the dragon chair and said, "I think it's good, and I can't completely empty the northern and eastern fronts, so I will do what I say today." ā€

100,000 against 100,000, if it is a flat ground and a slow attack, it may be a decisive victory.

However, the Liang army went downstream, occupied the advantage of the situation, and had rich combat experience, brave and fierce.

If the Hunan army faces it head-on, it really doesn't dare to say how many chances of victory.

I looked at Gu Yin helplessly, a slightly disappointed look appeared in his eyes, flashed for a moment, and then said calmly: "Okay, the little nephew will definitely live up to His Highness's expectations." ā€

Han Jinshi turned his head to look at me again, narrowed his long eyes, and asked faintly, "I don't know what the girl's plan is for the Liang Army?" ā€

I had already planned for this, and when I heard this, I put down the teacup in my hand and said confidently: "In this battle of the Liang army, the Lord is using water, and the soil can overcome water." If you want to use the soil and water, there is a plan below. ā€

The crowd looked at me.

I looked at Han Jinis and said, "Brother Han can find out, of course, why did the official ship that greeted us explode?" ā€

Han Jin was stunned, obviously he didn't expect me to ask this suddenly, he was stunned for a moment, and said: "Someone hid explosives in the cabin, but the person who hid the explosives has no evidence now." ā€

I said: "It must be Liang Jun's spies, who came to target Gu Yin, so this time, we will bomb and blow up." ā€

"The girl wants to blow up the ship too?" Han Jin leaned forward and asked.

"Definitely." I shook my head: "Bomb the mountain." ā€

Gu Yin was shocked when he heard this, and said: "Yes, this time I took a boat down, and I have been observing the terrain along the river. ā€

"It is about ten miles away from Badong Pass, there is a high gorge and a narrow river, and both sides of the bank are rocky mountains and rocks, if you put explosives on the mountain, and wait for the Liang army ships to pass by, detonate the explosives, and there will be the effect of the sky collapsing and the mountain cracking."

I nodded: "That's exactly what it means." ā€

When everyone heard this, their faces were overjoyed.

Han Jinshi also said: "Clever plan." It's just that when the Liang army travels, they have always been very well guarded, so it is not so easy to avoid their eyes and ears and plant explosives on the mountain. ā€

Min Qiu, who had been silent and silent, said to himself: "Leave this to me, I only need a hundred elite soldiers, and I can be sure to avoid Liang Jun's eyes and ears." ā€

The sorrow on King Xiang's face faded a lot, and he looked at Gu Yin and said: "Very good, very good, according to what the virtuous nephew said, Xiangguo depends on you." ā€

Gu Yin's eyes flashed with brilliance, and he said, "The matter of blowing up the mountain will be handed over to Brother Min; In terms of intelligence, there will be someone in Patong to answer; When the Liang army came east, General Long led an army of 80,000 outside Yiling City to intercept Jiangshang; Under the order, he led 20,000 vanguard troops to attack the Liang army in the place where the mountains were bombed. ā€

Min Qiu and Long Chuan responded violently.

I moved my stiff legs, and said to Gu Yin with a smile: "It's up to you to set up the battle." ā€

The gloomy color on King Xiang's face finally dissipated, and Xu was encouraged by Gu Yin and others, and said impassionedly: "Okay, there are good generals and talents, and the soldiers who break the beam are just around the corner!" ā€

After the meeting, the king of Xiang left first.

I calculated the appropriate location and direction according to the map, and finally the place where the gunpowder was buried was set in the Goose Intestine Gorge, as the name suggests, the bend is narrow and long like a goose intestine, and the mountain rock is easy to fill, the most suitable.

Gu Yin drew a plan for arranging gunpowder according to the formation on the "Chronicles of the Heavenly Soldiers", which can be hidden in the mountains and rocks and is not easy to be discovered.

He also had a heated discussion with Long Chuan about the marching formation.

Min Qiu and I slowly walked out of the Shonan Hall first.

On the evening of the winter moon, the sun was dim and yellow, and the marble steps shimmered with gray light through the heavy clouds.

We walked down the stairs, Min Qiu seemed to have a lot more on his mind recently, and he had already put away the lazy and stubborn posture when I first met him, and he always looked thoughtful.

He also looked at me leisurely and said, "But you are angry in the princess's mansion?" ā€

I didn't care: "It's all in one thought, if you don't feel angry, no matter how others treat you, your heart is still stable." ā€

He smiled slightly: "Hearing this, I'm still angry." I don't know if Brother Gu did it intentionally or unintentionally? That Princess Han Zhi, at first glance, is spoiled and rude, and she is so concerned about Brother Gu, she takes the initiative to ask you to live in her palace, can she give you good fruits to eat? Your temperament is also suitable for staying in the mountains, if you really live in the deep palace courtyard, you would have been gnawed to the point that your bones are gone. ā€

I shook my head: "Gu Yin's actions, although they annoy her, but not like this, do you know that the people in the princess's palace all regard me as the concubine brought by Gu Yin." I'm afraid, this is a deliberate rumor. ā€

"Han Jinyi?" Min Qiu raised his eyebrows: "The King of Xiang is still here, he is so bold?" ā€

"His courage may be greater than you and I think."
