Chapter 10: Your Highness's Ambitions
Although they have their own thoughts, they have finally quieted down. Gu Changsheng continued with the previous sentence, he pointed to Yanmen Mountain and said:
"His Royal Highness goes straight into Yanmen Mountain, the reason why Yanmen Mountain is called Yanmen Mountain, because its mountain is not high, and there is a river sandwiched between the two mountain ranges, like the appearance of a wild goose taking off, and this river is His Highness's plan. Just block the river water in the upper river basin a little, and then divert other streams here, Yanwei Stream! At that time, the continuous heavy rain will pour, and the spring flood will become a complete trend, and a flood dragon will converge, from west to east, from south to north, and will approach Anyi! ”
This is something that everyone knows, Li Tiezhu didn't refute it, but just kept looking at Gu Changsheng and sneering.
Anyi, as a place where Northern Yan hoards grain and grass, just because its geographical location extends in all directions, as long as this place is solid, then the entire army in the south of Northern Yan can point where to fight, and there is no need to worry about the tiredness of grain and grass.
It is precisely because this location is so good that it is too important for the military strategy of the entire southern border of Northern Yan, so that it is not right to choose the place where the grain and grass are stored, which leads to a very conspicuous situation, and the world knows that the grain and grass of the Northern Yan are hoarded here, and they can only be hoarded here.
The most dangerous place is also the safest place, because no one can sneak up here, even if everyone knows it.
"Your Highness's sword goes sideways, if it happens, this blow can make Beiyan stop fighting for five years, and he can't move! Of course, although the plan is good, even if it comes to fruition, this army will be completely divided by Beiyan's army, and it will be almost dead if you want to come back! ”
What Gu Changsheng said was basically the same as the views of the soldiers, and it was also what they had argued about before, hearing Gu Changsheng say this, Li Tiezhu couldn't help but snort coldly and said:
"I saw that your kid was staying in the military tent just now, did you want to get away with these changes?"
Gu Changsheng didn't answer, didn't even look at Li Tiezhu, and said:
"If I, if the way back is blocked, then I will go down the river and go straight to Pingyang! He gathered 600,000 troops in the north and the south, and there must not be many soldiers inside, plus he was unprepared, and it was easy to take Pingyang. Gu Changsheng's words were so loud that many people were shocked, except for Nangong Changjun, Lin Shouxian, and He Mangshan.
A hint of appreciation flashed in Nangong Changjun's eyes, Gu Changsheng coincided with his own thoughts, although His Royal Highness didn't say it at the time, he could guess eight points, but although this was alive, it was also temporary, and it wouldn't last long in the hinterland of Beiyan.
Lin Shoufang didn't think about this at first, not because he couldn't think of it, but because he didn't dare to think that if a lone army wanted to survive under the behemoth of Beiyan, it was tantamount to a fantasy.
His Royal Highness has great ambitions, and outstanding ability, and has a very high prestige in the military, in the battle with Bian Hu in the north, His Royal Highness made suggestions and directly stifled Bian Hu's winter looting, which made Bian Hu never dare to go south to loot in the past two years.
Such a highness, if he becomes the crown prince or even the monarch of Great Wei, then the rise of Great Wei will be a sure thing!
Great Wei is located in the center of the Central Plains, with Yan and Hu in the north, Qi in the east, Qiang Chu in the south, Bashu and Qin in the west, there are too many powerful countries around, if it were not for the fact that the territory of Great Wei is not large and the infantry is invincible, I am afraid that the country would have been destroyed long ago. Although they were more than able to defend it, they could not expand it, which is why these powerful countries have always tolerated the existence of Great Wei.
As long as the powerful countries are displeased, only the two countries can bring down the Great Wei. Da Wei, who is surviving in the cracks, needs a Ming Jun to lead Da Wei to strength!
So Lin Shousheng didn't dare to think about it, but Gu Changsheng was different, although he was taught etiquette, righteousness, benevolence, wisdom and faith since he was a child, but he was not loyal to the country, although Gu Changsheng also loved the land of Great Wei, liked the customs here, and liked the people here, but it didn't mean that he would feel anything about the ruling of Great Wei. What's more, once his father died, there was no one at home, and he was even more alone, if he hadn't been forcibly arrested and the men were used in the army, he would have been a prodigal son when he grew up.
"Even so, what can it be, isn't it still a dead end?! And such a strategic direction can also be figured out by a small soldier like you? It must have been your general who told everyone with your mouth! Li Tiezhu was obviously moved, he is a general, yes, but his strength is in the formation of troops, the brave general who charges and fights, not the commander of the command, so he didn't expect so much.
The more Li Tiezhu thought about it, the more he felt that his guess was right, Lin Shouxuan hadn't expressed much of his opinion since they came in, but let this soldier be in the limelight here, as for why he let a small soldier come out to speak, then the deep meaning of this suddenly became clear.
"I understand, Lin Shouyan, you mean to say that if Your Highness really approaches Pingyang, then the army in the north will definitely shrink inward, and when the time comes, you will send troops to search for military merits! Are you trying to provoke a war between the two countries! ”
When this sentence was spoken, Gu Changsheng's young heart almost couldn't hold back, how did this person become a second-grade lieutenant! He survived in the cracks of Great Wei, how could he take the initiative to provoke a war, and he was not afraid that Northern Yan would spend a lot of money to casually unite with a country to destroy Great Wei?!
The big war between the two countries is most afraid of falling into reality, and the division will be nameless, and then the world will attack it, and the Great Wei will be destroyed even faster.
Gu Changsheng just wanted to speak, but He Mangshan, the white general, opened his mouth and asked:
"Zhigong Pingyang, although it can be exchanged for a glimmer of life, but it has no strategic significance, in my opinion, it is better to go east, bypass Laoqiu, in the past is the junction of Northern Yan and Eastern Qi, if you can disguise as a Northern Yan army, come to a borrowed knife to kill, let Eastern Qi and Northern Yan fight evil."
Although He Mangshan took Gu Changsheng's words, his eyes were staring at Lin Shouyan, because if they guessed His Highness's true intentions, then they would be able to prepare accordingly.
But Lin Shousheng sat like an old monk and didn't say a word, and then He Mangshan looked at Lin Shouxian's mouth, Gu Changsheng.
Gu Changsheng nodded, but shook his head again.
"Beiyan has always fought with cavalry, and I have few war horses in Dawei, and I heard that His Royal Highness brought out the Zhenbei Army, and the Zhenbei Army didn't say anything about defending the city, but this played a cavalry, not to mention whether it could grab a war horse, but I had no cavalry combat experience, and I was afraid that before the two countries became hostile, I was injured most of them."
He Mangshan obviously knew all kinds of joints, so he didn't say this idea at first, but since Lin Shouyan had spoken, of course he didn't need to hide anything. Regarding Gu Changsheng's statement, He Mangshan nodded and motioned for him to continue.
"If you can't go east, then keep going north!" After Gu Changsheng finished speaking, he exhaled fiercely.
"Impossible! Further north is the capital of the Northern Yan Emperor, it is impossible to have any hope with a garrison army alone, it is better to march into Wusui in the southeast, and then cross the Yellow River, so that there is still a glimmer of hope! ”
"You mean going north to Handan?!" Nangong Changjun looked at Gu Changsheng suddenly at this time, and the momentum of the battle-hardened suddenly burst out, and Gu Changsheng did not come with a palpitation, but he still nodded. Nangong Changjun stared at Gu Changsheng for a long time, the entire military tent was silent, no one thought of this, it was too bold, but it was not impossible.
"Directly attack Anyi to get the first opportunity, if you succeed in forcing Handan before the army and forcing Beiyan to negotiate a peace treaty, it is indeed feasible, but if it is captured, it is okay, and then the proton will return, and if it is not captured... It's just that whether it is captured or not, my Great Wei will definitely stand on the cusp of the knife. ”
An untimely voice appeared again, although Li Tiezhu was shocked by Gu Changsheng's words, but at the same time, he also discovered the biggest loophole.
"Since you want to go straight downstream, the 20,000 army has no ships and no boats, how can you go straight down?!"
Gu Changsheng looked at Li Tiezhu and was silent, and Qin Xiaoran couldn't stand it anymore, so he said:
"Not to mention that His Royal Highness has the ability to take wood into a boat, who said that it must go straight downstream, just in the north of Yanmen Mountain, there is a horse farm, even if you don't take the waterway, it is faster than the army of Beiyan, one step first, step by step, General Li."
Nangong Changjun stood up silently.
"That's all for this military discussion."
