Because of this change, no one had the heart to eat and drink, and the feast ended quickly, so Zhao Yingding joined in unsurprisingly, pointing around the map, repeatedly speculating on the possible route of the Tartars' march and the deployment of troops.

"Such a force is enough to suppress the two Huai, if this is only a partial division, the enemy in front of Jinghu is innumerable, according to Wang Jian Pochu story, it is estimated that it should be between 500,000 or 600,000, most of them are Han army foot soldiers, supplemented by hundreds of thousands of cavalry troops and a small number of new annexed troops, of course, there are also naval troops."

The area of Ezhou was full of military models by Liu Yu, and its density was shocking at a glance, even if they were already psychologically prepared, so intuitively compared, the faces of several people were a little unsightly.

"In this battle, the key is that the water is not on land, Jiangzhou is adjacent to the big river, and by the big lake, the decisive battle is placed between the rivers and lakes, and in these critical places to ambush the boat division, looking for a big opportunity, as long as he can break the Tartar army, no matter how strong he is on land, he will return in vain."

Liu Yu, a military white, can talk eloquently in front of these experts, relying on invincible intelligence collection, with these exact data, it is natural to talk about the Tao, even if it is on paper, it seems to make people have to believe it.

This truth is not difficult to understand, as far as the process of history is concerned, the two wars of Dingjiazhou and Jiaoshan are mainly water wars, Liu Yu pointed it out mainly to Zhang Shijie, as long as he does not repeat history, even if it is like the Battle of Ezhou, it is better than fighting a water war into a land war, and it is a short blow to the long, as for whether people understand it, then I don't know.

Judging from the map, the Song people's naval army is still good on paper, including more than 1,000 large and small ships including the Chaohu naval army, and if used well, it may not be without the power of a battle, of course, the premise is that the commander is changed.

"Jiangzhou City is strong, with Zhao Shuai's talent, it is not difficult to guard the last month, the heaviest grain and grass in the city, the autumn harvest is imminent, and those grains must not be left for the Tartars."

Liu Yu seemed to add a sentence in a hurry, this is the most basic truth, these people here don't need to be reminded and should know, he has repeatedly emphasized that he is afraid that they will attach too much importance to others and ignore the things under their noses.

Jiangzhou, Nankangjun, Longxingfu, Raozhou and other four state capitals, the huge Poyang Lake is divided into districts, and it is a famous land of fish and rice in the south of the Yangtze River. Jiangzhou chokes the mouth of the lake, and if you hold it, you will hold the entire lake area, and of course the Tartars will pay more attention to it, and this first wave of attacks is only afraid that it will be more fierce than the battle of Ezhou at the beginning of the year.

"You don't seem to be optimistic about this Zhao Shuai?"

"The strong man broke his wrist, Jiangzhou can only play a delaying role, no matter how long he can defend, the decisive battle cannot be placed here, at that time the Tartars are in full swing, and if they take the liberty to resist it, they will definitely be defeated."

was pulled aside by Li Tingzhi, Liu Yu said what he thought, everything he did above was just to strengthen Zhao's stubborn heart, to deal with such a large-scale invasion, it is the right way to clear the wilderness, lure the enemy deep, and resist step by step, just like the battle of Weishui back then.

"When the Tartars go down the river, the two Huai must have a move, in the heart of the Xianggong, which city is the tallest and strongest, can resist the siege of more than 100,000 enemy troops for several months? Jiankang doesn't count. ”

"Naturally, it is Chuzhou, the place where King Han Qi is stationed in His Majesty, which was destroyed in the war twenty years ago, and then the newly built one, facing the Huaishui, the Tartars can't get around it anyway."

Li Tingzhi didn't even think about it and blurted it out directly, needless to say, this Chuzhou guard must be his confidant, so he can say it so confidently, Liu Yu thought about it in his mind, and he still remembered the general location of the place name.

"That is Chuzhou, take this as a screen, move the people of Chuzhou to Gaoyou and Yangzhou, and lure the Tartars into the siege. When it is tired, the sailor enters the Huaishui from the sea, cutting off its retreat, Xiang Gong leads the army to join forces with the outside, and breaks the enemy under the city of Chuzhou, so that one wing of the Tartar can be cut off, and its sharp spirit is severely defeated, I don't know what Xiang Gong thinks? ”

To put it bluntly, this is a copy of the battle of Jiankang, Liu Yu is a military blind, and he can only move what he knows, Li Tingzhi listened to it but his eyes lit up, the first thing he thought of was operability, the key to this plan is whether Chuzhou can hold it, and the rest is natural, and there is nothing surprising.

"But the enemy came up from the river, what can I do about it?"

"The momentum is unstoppable, and only by building a healthy and strong city may be able to stop it for a while."

The enemy Liu Yu in the middle of the road does not have much way, if he can go all out and win the battle of Chuzhou, one can boost the morale of the army, and the other is that the enemy loses this part, the door of Xuzhou is open, and Liu Yu's intention should be killed, and the enemy's weak abdomen will be smashed directly, and then Kublai Khan will not return to the army.

"If it is Kublai Khan, Jiankang should only besiege but not attack, the army will go south from Ningguofu, enter Liangzhejiang by other roads, threaten Lin'an Mansion, force Xianggong you to return to the division, and seek an opportunity to be annihilated in the wild, at that time, how will the guild choose?"

Can Lin'an not be saved? Li Tingzhi shook his head, this is not a matter of choice at all, when it really comes, even if he knows that there is a trap in front of him, he has to jump in with his eyes closed, and the Jingshi cannot afford to lose.

"Another question, if the Lin'an Mansion has fallen, and even the two saints have surrendered, the fate of the city will be open, and the city will not be opened?"

Liu Yu's question is a bit redundant, people in history have already given the correct answer, three times to kill the envoy, to defend Yangzhou, the sage's personal letter is useless, sure enough, Li Tingzhi thought for a moment, and slowly shook his head.

"Such a kid has a sentence, Jiankang is not lost, and the two Huai are not lost, then there is still hope for the Great Song Dynasty, and the rest are very human, and the public should remember it."

"Is there really no other way to think of it?"

"Yes, like Chizhou, the whole group is dedicated to the scorched earth war of resistance, and the Tartars have nothing to gain, and there are many casualties, so they have to withdraw their troops."

Li Tingzhi stared at his eyes, as if to make sure that he had said something stupid, such a reaction was not even if it was assumed that the imperial court surrendered, because this was too subversive, there has always been only to protect the territory and the people, how can there be an enemy to drive the people to take the initiative to destroy their homes? However, Liu Yu's eyes were clear and did not seem to be fake at all.

Naturally, he didn't know what the later generations had experienced, and what price the Chinese people paid to win the final victory in the face of the invasion of a small island country. This may be the last conversation, Liu Yu is no longer secretive, there is no way to listen to him or not, he has done his best.

"This is the collapse of the country, there is no determination to destroy the family and relieve the difficulties, the determination to die with the enemy, there is no will to abandon the south of the Yangtze River and burn this prosperity to the ground, no matter what we do, the Great Song Dynasty has only one result."

"Ladies and gentlemen."

Liu Yu's thinking gradually became clear, and the sales eloquence that he had experienced for many years turned into eloquence, and he blurted out involuntarily.

"The situation is already critical, and you should immediately tell the people: If there is no house, we can rebuild, and if there is no country, we can only be reduced to slavery. Liu Mou heard that the Tartars have planned to divide the people of the world into the fourth class, you and I are under the northerners, the kid is dull, and he is not willing to live a life with the people of the fourth class. ”

It's a pity that there are only four people in the room, and there is no grand occasion of Liu Yu expecting a group of people to cheer, but the effect is still achieved, at least Zhao Yingding's eyes are no longer flickering, and they have become much more determined.

"The big thing has been decided, I'll go back tomorrow, Ziqing, today's banquet is for you to see you off, take care of the hardships and dangers of the north."

"Brother, the most important thing is to come back alive, brother let you see, how to take Ezhou lightly and cut off the head of Ali's old boy."

"Chinese Book"

Wait, Liu Yu shouted, Lao Tzu hasn't left yet.
