"I don't know much about this area, and I don't have any experience in military affairs, so I won't speak, you are all important ministers of the country, and naturally you are far more knowledgeable than me in this kind of thing. So, if there's anything I need to do, just tell me, and as for the rest, I won't be involved. ”

Xia Fan said with a smile.

This statement made the faces of the two governors of the five armies soften at the same time.

In anything, the most taboo is for a layman to lead an insider.

Originally, both Feng Daozuo and Wu Zhongtian were quite worried that Xia Fan would point fingers at this matter.

After all, Qian Guangyuan's attitude towards Xia Fan is too amazing, and Xia Fan himself is too young, and any young person seems to be unable to get rid of the problem of liking to talk highly.

Especially Wu Zhongtian, because of what happened in the headquarters of the forging master group before, Wu Zhongtian has always had a certain prejudice against Xia Fan, and he only feels that Xia Fan is also the same as other young people, of course, he has the ability and ability, but he is also impulsive and reckless.

But when they met for the first time today, Xia Fan left a pretty good impression on him.

Especially with such an attitude of not interfering with the dynasty's plan to send troops, it made Wu Zhongtian and Feng Daozuo even more appreciated.

"It's not really about the military priorities here, it's just that everyone has their own opinions, even if it's not right, what if it can inspire others? Although the military strength of the dynasty is strong, if it really rushes to send troops and attracts the resistance of the surrounding seven countries, it is difficult to please with the military strength of the dynasty, let alone the highest goal of conquering the entire Southern Regions, so ...... Mr. Xia Fan, do you have any good ideas? ”

Qian Guangyuan didn't care about Xia Fan's excuses, and asked with an expectant look.

"I wonder what the two governors think about this?"

Xia Fan didn't answer directly, but looked at Feng Daozuo and Wu Zhongtian first and asked.

"Xia Guoshi, I am Feng Dudu's opinion, first unite a group, and then attack a group. The idea of the seven nations connected to the dynastic territory, three of which were stronger and the other four weaker, was to create a conflict in order to send troops to justify the name and pacify the other countries and defeat the seven nations one by one. ”

Wu Zhongtian replied simply.

"How exactly should it be implemented?"

Xia Fan then asked.

"There is no detailed plan yet, once the basic strategic policy is determined, then the military will analyze and specify the corresponding implementation steps according to the needs of the strategic policy, but it will take some time."

Wu Zhongtian said without any concealment.

"The idea of the two governors doesn't sound like there is any problem, this kind of thing, let's submit it to the governor's mansion to do, as for the specific implementation, I have a bit of a superficial opinion."

Xia Fan nodded and spoke.

Feng Daozuo and Wu Zhongtian glanced at each other, but this time it was Feng Daozuo who spoke first: "Xia Guoshi, please speak." ”

"If I'm not mistaken, the dynasty should have a certain border dispute with one of the seven surrounding countries, and the area where it is located, the dynasty and that country currently have no garrisons in the territory, we may be able to coerce the three relatively stronger countries first, let them acquiesce in this criticism area as the territory of the dynasty, and force them to sign relevant treaties and agreements."

Xia Fan said as he paid attention to Feng Daozuo and Wu Zhongtian's expressions.

found that after hearing his words, the two did not show any impatience, but focused a lot, and then continued with a smile: "Everyone has a fluke heart, and the same is true for the country. Using the criticized region as a stepping stone to test the determination of the three major countries to resist the dynasty should not be rejected in such a situation where it is not a tearing of the skin. And once treaties and agreements are signed, they can naturally play a role in confusing the three major countries. It has never been difficult to take advantage of the reason for the criticism to take the opportunity to directly integrate the country into the territory of the dynasty. ”

"What Xia Guoshi said is reasonable, but I don't know, so what should I do? Recklessly encroaching on the territory of one country will inevitably arouse the vigilance of the other six countries, and I am afraid that such means can only be used once. And in order to be able to have an effect and not involve too much energy in the territory of the country, the forces invested by the dynasty are bound to be tilted, and I am afraid that it will have an impact on all aspects. ”

Feng Daozuo said in a deep voice.

"Although the alliance of the seven countries is strong, in the final analysis, it is seven countries, and it is naturally impossible to concentrate forces like a dynasty. The two governors, I would like to ask, even if the three major countries want to resist, then...... Do they really dare to take the initiative to attack the dynasty? ”

Listening to Xia Fan's inquiry, Wu Zhongtian instinctively shook his head and said proudly: "Their troops are more than enough to defend, but their progress is insufficient. As long as this battle is fought, the difference is only in how we fight and to what extent we can fight, but they never want to fight on our land. ”

"In this case, then things are much simpler, as long as there is a good start among the seven countries, then there is always time to quickly take the second country while the other countries are hesitating. As for the remaining countries to wake up and unite to declare war against the dynasty, the best way is to destroy a corner of the three major countries in the shortest possible time! It is not difficult to completely defeat their confidence in resistance, and with the support of rumors and intelligence, it is not difficult to destroy the Seven Kingdoms. ”

Xia Fan continued with a smile on his face: "After all, even if the dynasty occupies other countries, it still needs local officials in other countries to maintain stability, except for the royal family, it is really difficult to say how much resistance there is in other people in those countries. ”

Hearing Xia Fan's words, several other people in the study also laughed.

"What Xia Guoshi said, there is a key point, how can we destroy one of the corners of the three major countries in the shortest possible time? Although each of the three major countries is far from the national strength of the dynasty, if they are strictly guarded, it will definitely be a protracted matter for the dynasty to want to bulldoze them...... This one...... The old man was a little puzzled. ”

Wu Zhongtian frowned and asked.

"Among the three major countries, the Western Zhou Dynasty is more weak than the other two countries, the whole country is heavy on literature and military suppression, and the army is mainly foot soldiers, I remember reading the relevant intelligence records, the Western Zhou Dynasty is left, the real number of cavalry is less than two thousand, and it is still a scout of the light cavalry, but the terrain of this country is dominated by plains, which is very suitable for the long-distance attack of cavalry."

As he spoke, Xia Fan looked at the faces of everyone in the study, and continued in a rather powerful tone: "So my idea is to open the gap between the three major countries through the Western Zhou Dynasty!" With the most elite cavalry of the Imperial Forest Army of the dynasty, without carrying any baggage, they directly bypassed the defense area arranged on the border in the Western Zhou Dynasty and smashed the Yellow Dragon! With the power of lightning, capture the capital of the Western Zhou Dynasty! At that time, there will only be two of the three major countries left, the strongest military strength in the Northern Tang Dynasty, and the Yuan family, which has always been interested in us, and the whole situation will be much calmer. ”

After listening to Xia Fan's words, except for Qianguangyuan and Baili Wuji, the other four people in the room gasped in unison.

The gaze that looked at Xia Fan was full of an inexplicable taste.

Qian Guangyuan couldn't help nodding when he heard this, looked at Feng Daozuo and Wu Zhongtian and asked, "The two governors, what the teacher said, is it feasible?" ”

Feng Daozuo and Wu Zhongtian glanced at each other, and then the two of them got up at the same time and bowed to Xia Fan and Qianguang Yuan respectively.

Xia Fan hurriedly bowed in return, and Qian Guangyuan faintly revealed a trace of excitement.

"Back to Your Majesty, although what Xia Guoshi said is extremely bold, I have to say that there is indeed a great possibility of success, but how to operate it still needs to be detailed and formulate a thorough action plan."

Feng Daozuo's old voice also showed excitement.

"Zheng Shangshu, the relevant money that needs to be allocated, please ask the household department for more support."

Hearing that Feng Daozuo affirmed Xia Fan's thoughts, Qian Guangyuan directly ordered without hesitation.

Such a vigorous and resolute way of doing things is obviously a habit of the Daqian Dynasty, and Zheng Tai agreed without any surprise.

"Very well, then let's bother the two governors to work hard these days, and make a detailed plan as soon as possible."

"Your Majesty, please rest assured."

"Well, then that's all for today, please leave the teacher and the Baili National Teacher, and the rest of the people will go back."

Listening to Qianguangyuan's eviction order, Chen Zirong and the four of them got up to say goodbye, only Wu Zhongtian did not shy away from inviting Xia Fan to Wu's house the next day in front of everyone before leaving.

With such an attitude, he naturally planned to reconcile, Xia Fan knew the meaning of the song when he heard the strings, so he naturally agreed with a smile.
