Chapter 349: Deduction
And Li Xinchen stretched out his hand and knocked on the map: "The White Emperor City is surrounded by mountains and rivers, and it is a first-class and dangerous place, but it is definitely not the only strong city we will face in the future, anyway, it is still early, so I will give you a problem." โ
Chen Zhishen and the others all looked at Li Xinchen in surprise, and Li Xinchen pointed directly at Chen Zhishen: "Chen Zhishen, Wang Chang!" โ
"The last general!" The two hurriedly raised their heads.
"You two are in charge of attacking," Li Xinchen said in a deep voice, "Cao Zhong and Lu Zhiwu, you two are in charge of defense." A certain judge who wins and who loses. โ
"Huh?" Chen Zhishen and the others suddenly stared at each other, not understanding what Li Xinchen meant.
And Li Xinchen said unhurriedly: "If you encounter such a strong city in the future, do you still have to personally guide you how to fight?" What's more, when we defend the city in the future, should we also ask for such and such an order? โ
Chen Zhishen hesitated for a moment, nodded solemnly, and directly picked up a white chess piece that Li Xinchen had placed next to the map, and dropped it outside the gate: "Tomorrow night, the ships of our army's naval division should have arrived at this position." โ
And Wang Chang also reacted, and immediately cooperated to take out two chess pieces and put one on the left and right sides of the dock.
"A certain meeting ordered to attack the enemy's naval camp on the south side with fireships as the leader, and then take this opportunity to attack the dock with Meng Chong's escort of the big war ships." Wang Chang said in a deep voice, "In addition, ten Mengchong will be dispatched to monitor the camp on the north side, there are not many enemy sailors, and the incident happened suddenly, and it is basically impossible to prevent us from boarding the dock." โ
And Li Xinchen glanced at Lu Zhiwu and Cao Zhong, who had not yet come back to their senses: "If you two don't move again, this city will be destroyed." โ
Lu Zhiwu and Cao Zhong reacted, and also took out chess pieces and kept falling. For a while, the entire map seemed to have countless killing sounds, and the scene of blood and fire continued to emerge in front of everyone.
Li Xinchen exhaled deeply and looked at the four people who rolled up their sleeves and argued loudly.
In fact, this is just the simplest wargame deduction, which should be regarded as the most common method of analyzing the battle situation before the war in later generations, and only by analyzing it from the perspective of the enemy and the enemy can we see the entire battle situation more thoroughly.
But in this day and age, this is undoubtedly a very new way of thinking.
As long as you look at Chen Zhishen and the others' dependence on Li Xinchen's orders, they have obviously long been accustomed to this mode of ordering from superiors and charging by themselves.
But Li Xinchen must break this pattern now, because as the battle situation opens, he is likely to not get more support in a short time, and only these few generals can be relied on, and this means that Li Xinchen must let them go out and take charge of themselves at the right time, so Li Xinchen must cultivate their thinking of commanding operations from now on.
After all, as he himself said, when the war situation became more and more grand and chaotic in the future, relying on the bad information transmission methods and efficiency of this era, Li Xinchen could not command every battle in all aspects, and in most cases he had to rely on these generals who were outside to play on the spot.
This kind of war game can undoubtedly make them more aware of the difference between friend and foe, so that they can not only consider how this big battle should be fought from their own point of view.
Knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent and not being defeated in a hundred battles is definitely not an empty word.
And Chen Zhishen and the others also somewhat understood what Li Xinchen meant, after all, they were able to get to today's position step by step, and they didn't just rely on pure brute force, although Li Xinchen didn't need any handsome talent at this stage, but he wouldn't directly find a few fools who only knew how to charge forward with their own army.
Such an army can only fight tough battles, but it is difficult to achieve victory.
As Lu Zhiwu and Cao Zhong reacted and joined the battle, soon the two sides were in full swing. In the end, the White Emperor City is the White Emperor City, and the ease of defending and attacking the city is obviously beyond the expectations of Chen Zhishen, Wang Chang and others.
Even if Lu Zhiwu and Cao Zhong were a few steps slower, they could still use their limited forces to resist by relying on the circling roads and uneven buildings everywhere, not to mention that this was still the case where the city gate was broken through at the beginning.
Chen Zhishen didn't know when he rolled up his sleeves, and Wang Chang was sweating profusely, watching the chess pieces representing his sailors' fleet being erased from the map, as if he was seeing the lives that were passing away.
And Lu Zhiwu and Cao Zhong talked in a low voice from time to time, one of them held the south of the city and the other held the north of the city, cooperating with each other and supporting each other, constantly dividing and surrounding the enemies who entered the city, and the rhythm of the battlefield was soon in the hands of the defenders.
"You're defeated." Li Xinchen stretched out his hand and pointed to the few white chess pieces left on the map, and said lightly to Chen Zhishen and Wang Chang.
Although Chen Zhishen has not yet been wiped out, but his troops have lost more than half, and Wang Chang's sailors have been destroyed by most of the condescending defenders.
Chen Zhishen gasped for breath, and Wang Chang's face was slightly pale, neither of them thought that they would lose so badly. Lu Zhiwu and Cao Zhong's expressions were not much better, from the initial rush to the later easy repulsion of the enemy's attacks again and again, they could already clearly feel the advantages brought by the layout of the White Emperor City to the defenders.
And now they are the attacker, not the defender.
It is no wonder that Gongsun Shu chose to build a city in this place, and it is no wonder that Liu Bei retreated from the White Emperor City three hundred years ago, and built a defense line against Sun Quan on this basis, and finally forced Sun Quan to go further westward and could not control the upper reaches of the river.
Chen Zhishen's face became more and more heavy, for this man who has always been not afraid of heaven and earth, this is a rare scene, and he subconsciously looked at Li Xinchen slightly: "General, then let's?" โ
"This White Emperor City, you can't storm it, you can only outwit it." Li Xinchen's voice was a little low, but it was extremely firm.
Chen Zhishen subconsciously raised his eyebrows, and Li Xinchen stretched out his hand and nodded on the map of White Emperor City: "We are almost under the city now, so the most important thing is time, so tomorrow let the boat boss in the fleet who is familiar with the situation of White Emperor City take a team of people disguised as fishermen and slender men to go to White Emperor City first." โ
"Wouldn't that be too risky?" Lu Zhiwu immediately couldn't help but ask, "If it is not handled properly, it may even be possible to startle the snake, then the White Emperor City will not need to ยทยทยทยทยทยท."
"Do we have any other choice? Really use flesh and blood to attack? Li Xinchen interrupted him with a snort, "If we want to take the White Emperor City, we must cooperate with the inside and the outside." โ
After a pause, Li Xinchen's voice raised slightly: "I will personally lead the team!" โ
