"What's wrong?"

Emperor Xuan frowned and asked.

Now, whether it is Emperor Xuan, Yan Beixi and others, it is no surprise that Fu Xiaoguan denies His Majesty's views - this kid often denies His Majesty's views, and now, what he denies seems to be extremely reasonable.

It's just that His Majesty's arrangement doesn't seem to be inappropriate, so Emperor Xuan also stood in front of this map.

Fu Xiaoguan looked at it for a while, then he turned his head and said, "The minister thinks that Yu Chunqiu must go around Shaanzhou and cross the Qinling Mountains into Jianzhou from east to west to Shuzhou...... The difficulty of this Shu Road is no different from entering the Western Wilderness, and I am afraid that I will not be able to rush to Shuzhou in two months.

Therefore, the minister thought that His Majesty had to give a will to the governor of Shuzhou, no, it was to give a will to the east and west of Jiannan, Shucheng, and even the important towns of these two roads...... The city defenses had to be strengthened, and the garrison soldiers had to be trained in armor.

In addition, the red-coated cannons that the ministers have sent to the eastern border army these days have to send a hundred cannons, and if the war is ...... in advance."

Fu Xiaoguan looked back at the map again, and his finger fell on Qipanguan - this is the first pass of Western Qin from Shuzhou to Shaanzhou!

"The minister thinks that it is more appropriate to let Yu Chunqiu's subordinates enter the Qipanguan to guard."

Yan Shidao also came to the map, looked at it carefully, and asked: "If the enemy army takes Lingzhou or Yuzhou and takes the Yangtze River waterway and goes down to the south of the Yangtze River, how to deal with it?" ”

Fu Xiaoguan shook his head, "With today's shipping capacity, 300,000 troops plus at least 400,000 servants, just 400,000 people, this requires at least a hundred large ships. If Xue Dingshan's subordinates wanted to raise a hundred large building ships, it would not be a simple matter, and it would at least delay him for more than a month.

And if Xue Dingshan is opposed, then it must be quickly reversed, so Xia Guan thought that Xue Dingshan would definitely go out of the Qinling Mountains to Shaanzhou, and then go south, for three reasons:

First, this winter and even spring is the dry season of the Yangtze River, which is not conducive to the passage of large building ships.

Second, Xue Dingshan's department is not a naval army, even if it does not fight on the water, the Yangtze River is in Qutang Gorge, Wuxia, and a section of Xiling Gorge...... This is it,"

Fu Xiaoguan pointed to these three places on the map, and said: "These three places have turbulent water currents and complex underwater reefs...... Seasickness, you know?

Once seasick, after they land, at least five days, the combat effectiveness will be sharply reduced, if our army attacks at this time, the enemy will definitely suffer heavy losses, this is by no means what Xue Dingshan wants to see, and since he can become the commander of one side, he also knows the reason. ”

Fu Xiaoguan turned around and said slowly: "As for the third, what the minister is worried about is that Xue Dingshan will not follow His Majesty's will to enter the Western Wilderness. If he really wants to rebel, he will definitely raise troops directly after receiving His Majesty's will, and take the Jiannan East Road into Jianzhou and arrive......"

He turned to look at the map again, and his finger fell on the Golden Bull Ancient Road, "He must take the Golden Bull Ancient Road to cross the first pass of the Western Qin, enter Baocheng in Shaanzhou, cross the Shimen along the Bao River, cross the Qinling Mountains, and go out of the inclined valley to the 800-mile Chunchuan." ”

He walked back to the tea table, took a big sip of tea, and said eloquently: "So the minister thinks that this Xue Dingshan department will not go to the Shuzhou Mansion in Jiannan West Road at all, so Yu Chunqiu's department and garrison Qipanguan will completely choke the throat of Xue Dingshan Mountain out of Qinling Mountain in the west."

As long as the Qipan Pass is not lost, the Central Plains will be unharmed, and it is impossible to threaten Jinling. However, the garrisons of the east and west roads of Jiannan must have a certain combat effectiveness, and once Xue Dingshan's headquarters is constrained in Qipanguan, the garrisons of the east and west roads must be integrated into an army and launch an expedition against Xue Dingshan from behind, otherwise it will ......"

Fu Xiaoguan took a deep breath and raised his eyebrows, "Otherwise, the minister is worried that Xue Dingshan will turn around and seize Jianzhou, and in this way, it will not be easy for our army to enter the two southern roads of Jianzhou."

Once Jiannan and Liangdao fell into the hands of Xue Dingshan, he would have one of the granaries of the world, Chengdu and Duda, and Xirong would become his rear, and at that time, this battle would be really difficult to fight! ”

Emperor Xuan frowned and looked at the map, and after thinking for a long time, he returned to the tea table and sat down.

"What you say is reasonable, but the combat effectiveness of the garrison of the city is worrying, who has the ability to integrate the garrisons everywhere into one?"

The corners of Fu Xiaoguan's mouth curled, and he said, "The minister thinks that Fei An can." ”

"Your Majesty only needs to give Fei An a secret decree, and he has the right to command the garrisons of the two southern realms of Jiannan, and he will definitely be able to do this. But in the end, whether these people can beat the western border army, the minister did not dare to guarantee, so the minister also asked His Majesty and Yan Shumi to understand one thing-

If this battle is lost, it is not because Fei An is not weak, but because of the huge disparity between the combat strength of the garrison army and the border army, so please Your Majesty do not blame Fei An at that time. ”

"If Fei An is defeated, won't this battle fall short?"

"No, as long as Fei An can delay Xue Dingshan's troops for half a month and stretch Xue Dingshan's troops, Yu Chunqiu will have a chance to pursue and encroach on it."

Yan Shidao thought for a while and asked, "What if Xue Dingshan is guarding the Sword Gate?" ”

"Xue Dingshan will definitely retreat to the Sword Gate if he can't beat the Qipan Pass, but a single Sword Gate is meaningless to him, he will definitely send troops to take the lead in taking Chengdu Mansion, so he won't have too many soldiers left behind in the Sword Gate.

At that time, the red-clothed cannon was lifted under the sword gate. With the power of the red-clothed cannon, it is not difficult to break through the sword gate, and what the lower officials are afraid of is that Xue Dingshan really took Chengdu Mansion, which will cause a large number of casualties among the people, and second, the autumn grain in Chengdu and the capital is enough for him to transition to the next autumn harvest. ”

Yan Shidao bowed slightly, "So the purpose of your strategy is to use Yu Chunqiu to block Xue Dingshan's throat out of the river, and use Fei An to gather city defense troops to delay Xue Dingshan's pace of taking Chengdu Mansion, and give Yu Chunqiu enough time to pursue Xue Dingshan?" ”

"It is precisely in this way, in the opinion of the minister, if Fei An is smart, he should be a guerrilla, which makes Xue Dingshan's subordinates panic all day long. And Yu Chunqiu's subordinates should advance slowly and slowly, and they must ensure that there are towns in the rear that can be supplied and garrisoned. Otherwise, once Xue Dingshan counterattacks, I am worried that Yu Chunqiu will suffer a big loss, after all, Yu Chunqiu only has more than 150,000 troops. ”

After hearing this, Emperor Xuan pondered for a moment and made a conclusion: "Then according to what the junior official said, I will give Fei An a secret decree and immediately let him go to Jiannan and Liangdao." ”

This matter was settled, Fu Xiaoguan finally felt a little more relaxed, His Majesty went to the Dragon Case to write a secret decree, Fu Xiaoguan looked at Yan Beixi and asked: "The evidence is conclusive?" ”

This is, of course, a possible rebellion against Schrödingshan.

Yan Beixi nodded, "There are all kinds of indications, Prince Jin may not be able to wait." ”

"If Prince Jin and the Lunatic Cult collude, I'm afraid that this force will have to be at least 100,000!"

Yan Beixi was shocked and raised his eyes to look at Fu Xiaoguan.
