"It's just that the division of troops is an extremely huge challenge for us, once the troops are dispersed, it means that we will encounter a White Lotus Sect army of more than 30,000, and we can only dodge, so how can we implement the power of the White Lotus Sect to eliminate it in the movement."

"We have limited troops and lack of food and grass, and although our morale has not been affected in the slightest, that does not mean that it will not be affected. Besides, in addition to the White Lotus Sect in Wuzhou Mansion and the Jinling Front Army on our side, we could have become very good allies, however, in fact, it is impossible to form an alliance at least for the time being. ”

"Therefore, we must cut through the chaos quickly, and we must also take into account all possible factors around us, therefore, the last general suggested that the troops surround the Wuzhou Mansion but hang and not attack, on the one hand, it will cause huge psychological pressure on the White Lotus Sect in Wuzhou Mansion, and at the same time take a dividing strategy, after all, more than half of our soldiers are from the White Lotus Sect, and emotionally they still have a common language, and once the soldiers of the White Lotus Sect learn about the treatment of the Royal Army and the servant army of Great Xia, it is absolutely impossible to say that they are not moved, therefore, We can use this to divide the White Lotus Sect in Wuzhou Prefecture, and even increase our troops. Pei Xiangdong's eyes flashed with a confident look, and he said eloquently.

"On the other hand, we can hang the Jinling front army that evacuated the Wuzhou capital. Once the Jinling Front Army knew that we had sent troops to Wuzhou Mansion, they would definitely have a look of expectation in their hearts, expecting both our defeat and the defeat of the White Lotus Sect, so they would definitely not stay away until the matter was implemented. ”

"My lord, Mr. Luo must not be such a person." Hearing that everyone had been arranging Luo Yuhui and the Jinling Qianjun, Luo Yuyi had endured it without refutation, one was to know how many people had arranged the third brother, and on the other hand, she seemed to feel that her rebuttal was very pale and powerless in her heart.

"Luo Yi, this is just an assumption, any possible situation needs to be considered before the war, and this is a qualified general." Luo Yuyi's identity was not disclosed to the public, but the identity disclosed to the public was Luo Yi, from the former army of Jinling, and he was currently a personal soldier of Shen Yan. Shen Yan heard Luo Yuyi's rebuttal, a friendly smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, glanced at the other party, and said lightly.

"Everyone said a lot of valuable suggestions, I thought about it seriously, I think that it is still the way to surrender without a fight, where the law of war, the whole country is the first, and the country is second; The whole army is the first, and the broken army is second; The whole pawn is the first, and the broken pawn is second; The whole army is the first, and the army is second. Therefore, a hundred battles are won, and the good ones who are not good are also; The soldiers who surrender without a fight, and the good ones are also good. A faint smile appeared on the corner of Shen Yan's mouth, glanced at everyone, and said slowly.

"The Wuzhou Mansion must not allow the White Lotus Sect to occupy it in a stable manner, this not only involves our strategic deployment, but also involves the movements of the Jinling Front Army, although we are not sure that the Jinling Front Army will stay away from here, but we must think of the worst side of everything. Now that we are faced with such a situation, what strategy should we adopt? ”

"Hard attack. It is bound to be difficult to capture Wuzhou Mansion, after all, Wuzhou Mansion is a large mansion in Huaibei County, the defense facilities of the city wall are relatively perfect, and the White Lotus Sect occupies a defensive advantage, so a hard attack is a huge challenge for us, a difficult challenge to complete. ”

"Since you can't attack hard, what should you do, just like last time? It's not that the same strategy can't be used twice, it's just that there must be a sufficient premise to achieve it, and we don't have that premise at the moment, so this strategy is not advisable. So what should we do, we can't look at Wuzhou Mansion and sigh. Speaking of this, a faint smile appeared on the corner of Shen Yan's mouth, as if he was laughing at himself.

"Lao Jing mentioned an important question, we are short of food and grass, what about Wuzhou Mansion? Wuzhou Mansion must be more lacking than us, in addition to our collection, the Jinling front army collected once, this time it is the turn of the White Lotus Sect, they will definitely not be merciful, so some people in the city will definitely be dissatisfied, but there is no corresponding strength to resist, if we give them enough support, will everyone say they will be moved? ”

"In addition, Lao Pei also mentioned that we can adopt a strategy of division, one can win over some of the soldiers of the White Lotus Sect, and even increase our troops, and the other can continue to hit the morale of the White Lotus Sect, once the morale of the White Lotus Sect is too low, what combat effectiveness do they have. Of course, this time may be relatively long, and we may not have such ample time. ”

"But it doesn't matter, the premise of surrendering without a fight is to make the enemy fear us, the previous few deployments have already sprouted in the heart of the White Lotus Sect, and then we only need to do something to let this fear take root in the heart of the White Lotus Sect, we can implement this strategy, and it won't take too much time."

"This example existed in the previous dynasty, when King Zhao ordered Zhao Hao to take Maiqiu within a month, Zhao Hao planned to attack hard after arriving at Maiqiu, but it was impossible to defeat Maiqiu in a month, which really gave Zhao Hao a headache. Zhao Hao's son Zhao Kuo joined the army together, Zhao Kuo made a careful investigation of Maiqiu's situation, judging from all indications, although Maiqiu's grain and grass have not been completely eaten, it must not be much. Zhao Kuo hoped that his father would figure out the situation first, suspend the attack, and avoid unnecessary losses caused by the hard attack. ”

However, the one-month period given by King Zhao was too short, so Zhao Hao did not listen to Zhao Kuo's words and ordered the siege of the city. The Zhao army died a lot and did not capture Maiqiu. Zhao Kuo said to Zhao Hao that among the defenders of the city, there were opponents who were good at defending the city, and they were very defensive against the attack of the Zhao army, so that the Zhao army would return in vain after attacking for several years. This time, the Zhao army marched in a hurry, did not prepare sufficient siege equipment, and did not find a way to crack the siege, if it continued to attack hard, it would inevitably have to pay the same painful price as before. ”

"The worst thing is that the enemy troops in the city often come out at night to attack the Zhao army. Outside the city, many people from the rivers and lakes also formed a team to harass Zhao Jun. If this continues, a month will soon pass. At that time, if King Zhao's mission is not completed, his father will become King Zhao's sinner. ”

Hearing Zhao Kuo's words, Zhao Hao asked the captured captives and asked them about the situation in the city, but the captives didn't say anything. Zhao Kuo fed these captives every day, was very polite to them, and gave them grain and grass to take back to the city for their families to eat. So, one of the captives quietly told Zhao Kuo that there was not much grain and grass in the city, and it was all controlled by the enemy. The people have long been out of food, and have even begun to eat people. Zhao Kuo asked how long the Qi army could hold out. The captives said they could hold on for a few months. ”

So Zhao Hao listened to Zhao Kuo's advice, stopped the attack, and put all the prisoners back. After the captives returned, they said that this Zhao army was very polite, did not insult them, and let them eat enough and let them come back with grain and grass. Some of the people in the city wanted to come out and surrender to Zhao Hao. When the enemy saw that the captives had caused a disturbance in the city, they locked them all up. Soldiers and civilians complained about this. ”

Zhao Hao asked the besieging Zhao army to throw grain and grass into the city with a stone thrower. After Zhao Jun threw grain and grass into the city every day, he went back to the camp to rest, and did not say anything to the city. After a few days like this, the enemy army defending the city sent a representative to send back the grain and grass, and said to Zhao Hao that the Zhao army would attack if it wanted to fight, and should not throw any more grain and grass. ”

Zhao Hao asked him to go back to the city and wait, but he didn't attack, but continued to throw grain and grass into the city after a few days. After a few more days, the enemy general defending the city sent a representative to say that he would choose a decisive battle with Zhao Hao, but Zhao Hao listened to Zhao Kuo's advice and refused to meet with him. A few days later, Maiqiu's men killed the enemy generals defending the city and surrendered. ”
