"Uenohara?"

Zhu You had no impression of this place, so he asked, "You immediately tell me about the specific geomorphological features of this area." ”

Although he has a high-level intelligent light brain Xiaohong, who can transmit more detailed topographic maps over a long distance, Zhu Youxiao does not dare and does not want to use its ability now, lest it cause uncontrollable consequences.

It's not that he's making a fuss, but every time he has this thought, he feels a burst of heartbeat.

This made him more and more cautious.

Even if it is necessary to sail far away in the future, he doesn't want Xiaohong to help.

Be careful to be able to take the boat of 10,000 years, he reminds himself from time to time to take caution.

Regarding the warning of the craftsman hammer, Zhu Youxiao did not dare to be careless, so as not to cause uncontrollable consequences.

Seeing His Majesty's inquiry, Huang Jianjie immediately replied: "Uenohara is a long and narrow gorge running east-west, with the Kanto Mountains in the middle, and it is the only place to go to Kanto in the Kansai region, especially to Edo. ”

"Of course, there is another way to get from Kansai to Edo, and that is along the southern coastline, but it will be much longer."

He tapped his index finger lightly on the map and proposed to the Emperor: "Your Majesty, we can march along the southern coastline, although the distance is a little farther, but at least it will not be limited by the terrain and topography. ”

In the past two months, because His Majesty the Emperor attaches great importance to the Japanese Invaders, Huang Jianjie has indeed put a lot of effort into the intelligence of all parties in the Japanese Kingdom.

In order to explore the terrain of the Wa Kingdom, he had even personally visited the Wa Kingdom twice before, and some of the backbone members of the Military Intelligence Department had also been transferred to the Wa State by him, and many people had already gained a firm foothold in the Wa State.

If you don't know these Royal Military Intelligence Agency intelligence officers, you can't recognize them at all, whether they are from the Ming Empire or the Japanese Empire.

It is precisely because of this that Huang Jianjie can grasp accurate information so quickly and so quickly.

"Canyon? The way to go? ”

The corner of Zhu Youxiao's mouth suddenly showed a sneer, "It seems that the Japanese are not stupid, and they actually know how to use the canyon terrain to fight against my Royal Marines." ”

"I kind of know what the Tokugawa shogunate is going to do."

Zhu Youxiao was a little surprised, "This kind of canyon terrain is very unfavorable to the play of cavalry, and the firing of muskets and crossbows will also be seriously restricted by the terrain. ”

"And our soldiers, there are 30,000 ironclad cavalry in the bright place, and the main reason is to reduce the role of our ironclad cavalry as much as possible."

"They don't know that the marines here are all-round soldiers, and the cavalry is just part-time."

"However, there must be advantages and disadvantages, and they would not have thought that they themselves would be more restricted by this narrow and rugged mountain terrain!"

"You must know that nearly half of the army of the Japanese State is all firearms and iron artillery troops, and if you really want to start a war with us in the canyon, it will not be effective at all!"

"They haven't started the war yet, they have already scrapped half of their combat strength, and they can only engage in hand-to-hand combat with us, and with the armament of our new army of the Ming Empire, will they be afraid of the hand-to-hand combat of the Japanese warriors and ronins?"

In Zhu Youxiao's eyes, there was a trace of inexplicable coldness, and he said in a deep voice: "There is an old saying, you have a good plan, I have a wall ladder!" ”

"Since the Wako has already set up a posture in Uenohara, waiting for us to drill into the pocket, then we will drill into this pocket as they wish!"

Speaking of this, Zhu Youxiao stood up Huo Ran, "I want to see if it is the pocket array of the Japanese Invaders, which can contain the expeditionary army of our Ming Empire, or our army, which can directly stab their pocket array!" ”

Huang Jianjie was shocked when he heard this, and couldn't help but whisper: "Your Majesty, isn't it a bit risky to do this?" ”

He cautiously persuaded the emperor: "Your Majesty, this Uenohara is not only a canyon, but also a narrow low-lying valley, although it has not snowed yet, no one can be sure, will it snow in the next ghost weather?" "Excellent reading books

"Once it snows heavily, and then at the beginning of spring next year, when the ice and snow melt, that very narrow Grand Canyon will become Zeguo!"

"And tens of thousands of our soldiers are cavalry, so the speed advantage of the soldiers will not be able to play at all, and we will lose the advantage of our ironclad cavalry that comes and goes like the wind."

"Oh?"

Hearing this, his expression moved, and he said in a deep voice: "There is also this kind of unexpected situation......

Zhu Youxiao couldn't imagine that he had left out such a key piece of information as heavy snowfall.

Sure enough, talking on paper is unacceptable.

It seems that in the future, I will have to learn from a few genius generals, lest I make irreparable mistakes in the future.

Huang Jianjie suggested again: "Your Majesty, that's exactly the case! Therefore, for the sake of safety, our army should not go to the wilderness. ”

Zhu Youxiao pondered for a moment, then shook his head and said, "No, I still have to go to the wilderness." ”

"Even if it snows heavily, even if the canyon is a low-lying area, if the Japanese want to trap our army in the canyon, there must be a prerequisite, that is, they must be able to block the attack of our Royal Marines!"

"Could it be that the Japanese will increase their troops in a big way, and I will have no soldiers and horses? They want to gather nearly a million troops to encircle and annihilate us, and I must increase the number of troops for the decisive battle accordingly. ”

"Since it's Armageddon, let's make it more violent!"

"What's more, even if a big war between the two sides is launched in Uenohara, do you think the Japanese will be able to stop our army from attacking and then block us in the Uenohara Grand Canyon?"

Colonel Zhu You chuckled and said, "The Japanese are not fools, they have deployed their troops in the Ueno Plains, not the southern coastline, which is enough to show that they have figured out our battle plan intentions!" ”

"These Japanese robbers, they also want to fight a decisive battle with our army in Uenohara."

"It's a godsend, for both friend and foe."

"Moreover, the Wako must also want me to transfer the Royal Navy fleet and most of the officers and men along the nearby coast in order to start a real Armageddon, and I will do as he wishes!"

Huang Jianjie didn't speak anymore, he could see that His Majesty the Emperor was determined to go to the wild plains to fight a decisive battle with the other party.

He also knew the reason why His Majesty the Emperor did this: the reason why he chose the Uenohara route was to teach the Japanese a painful lesson, and let the Japanese know that the new army of the Ming Dynasty from afar was invincible!

However, since the emperor decided to draw troops from the sea and come to converge and advance, he also considered the danger involved.

"Well, I have to urge Zhang Guangzhe to bring him over this time with enough military supplies for two months, and he must prepare for the worst, lest he regret it if an accident happens."

Huang Jianjie's mind is extremely flexible, and he has decided that no matter what, he must do a good job of insurance for this big operation.

The marching route of the army was finally determined by Zhu Youxiao.

That night, between Nagoya and the Royal Navy fleet not far off the coast, several battle chickens kept coming and going, delivering His Majesty's latest orders.

Of course, there are also Huang Jianjie's requirements.

Two days later, Zhang Guangzhe of the North Sea Fleet, led 80,000 Royal Navy officers and men, as well as a large number of military and logistics supplies, to Nagoya to join the Royal Marines.

Early in the morning of the next day, the strength and military supplies of the Ming Empire had more than doubled by more than 150,000 troops, and they strode forward in the direction of Uenohara with a strong fighting spirit.

The officers and men of the Royal Navy, who had been in this ancient house for three days, set out on a journey again, and the goal was the Armageddon that both sides knew about it!

Both sides of this decisive battle understand each other's purpose very well, and both have enough confidence in their own side, and they can already be regarded as driving horses, and there is nothing to hide.
