Chapter 68: The General
The person Luo Bai is looking for is a statement.
The last time he had been there and knew his tent.
When Luo Bai came, Shen Mingshu was getting ready to sleep. Hearing the sound of running outside, he immediately sat up, holding a short knife in his hand, and looked at the entrance of the tent.
Luo Bai lifted the tent, saw the declaration, and said directly: "When are you going to Fengyu City?" I'll go with you! ”
Shen Mingshu reacted immediately, and said in a deep voice: "What news did you get?" ”
Luo Bai made it to his bed and said word by word: "They are gathering to cross the river!" ”
The knives in Shenshu's hands have fallen.
"Your guess has come true?"
Luo Bai hurriedly said: "What's the use of talking about this now?" The key is to hurry to the city of abundance. ”
The statement has calmed down.
"If things are really as you say, then the imperial court must have dealt with it, and the matter has not yet reached the point of burning eyebrows."
That being said, Kolo Bai is clearly not that optimistic.
"Lord Shen, I remember you said before that the possibility of them crossing the river in winter is extremely unlikely, right?"
Shen Mingshu thought that Luo Bai was trying to satirize him for making a mistake in his prediction, and said with an ugly face: "It seems that I misestimated." ”
Who knew that Luo Bai said directly: "How many people in the imperial court think like this?" What I'm worried about now is that they haven't thought about this at all, and now they are rushing to deal with it, what are the chances of winning? ”
The affirmation finally became serious.
As far as he knew, after the defeat and death of General Zhengnanwang, the imperial court had already set a strategy against the enemy: wait until next year to act!
In other words, before the beginning of spring next year, all military actions of the imperial court will be a contraction of defense.
"The vast majority of people in the imperial court don't believe that they will launch an offensive in winter!"
"Do you not believe it, or do you not want to believe it?"
Luo Bai didn't want to argue with Shen Shu about this issue anymore, he interrupted Shen Shu's words, and said in a deep voice: "Lord Shen, the situation has changed now, even if you still act according to the established strategy, you have to revise the specific battle plan. ”
Listening to Luo Bai's skillful use of military language, the statement book had a kind of illusion, for this war, Luo Bai seemed to have anticipated it, and even thought of countermeasures.
But how is this possible?
He is only sixteen years old, even if he has been taught since he was a child, but he has not been exposed to real war, how can he come up with feasible countermeasures?
Shen Mingshu restrained his emotions and said in a deep voice: "What do you want to say?" ”
Luo Bai closed his eyes, frowning, as if thinking about something.
Just a little! Just a little! What exactly is that place called?
"What are you thinking?"
Finally, after a few breaths, the statement couldn't wait any longer and asked.
"Do you remember the first time you attended a lecture since you got here?"
The statement naturally remembers it, could it be that they talked about this in that class?
"I saw my sand table facing the Central Plains!"
Sandbox?
Shen Mingshu frowned, this is a military powerhouse, and it is not strange to have a sand table. But how could such a thing be seen by them, and it seemed that Ren Wushuang did it on purpose.
But anyway, what's wrong with the sandbox?
Luo Bai said: "At that time, Mr. asked us to take a look at the sand table, and told us about the situation in Fengyu City, and finally he asked us to do a deduction. It's a pity that before the deduction began, someone came in and ruined the class. ”
The statement does not ask who it is, and now is not the time to pursue this matter.
"And then? Since there is no deduction, how do you have an idea now? ”
"The man came so suddenly, I only had time to glance at the sand table before he came in. Then the lights went out and the class was over. ”
I see.
The statement didn't go any further, but it still had to go straight to the point.
"What do you want to say?"
"Because we had to do it ourselves, I looked at the map very carefully. Then two paths were discovered. ”
The statement did not speak, because the kid had already spoken to the crucial point.
"One waterway, one day by land."
"If I'm the general of this army and I know it's hard and risky to cross the river, why not bypass that? Take a big boat, follow the coastline, go straight to the mouth of the big river, go upstream, and attack the city of abundance! ”
If this idea is said by a general, Luo Bai may still be able to accept it, but it is a sixteen-year-old child, this is too incredible, right?
The statement didn't take long to be surprised, and the imperial drawings came to mind, depicting all the locations of these places, and then simulating the possibility of this action.
If this operation is to be put into action, it naturally needs enough ships. These ranks of the southern army but no problem.
However, even if the ships and soldiers are fine, how can you ensure that the river does not freeze!
It is already winter, and the big river is not a frozen river, and it may freeze at any time. Once the ice is frozen, they will not be able to reach the city of abundance by inland waterway. Then, this path is not valid.
"Gather now, and wait until you go north to the mouth of the big river, how can it take ten days and half a month. You say, in another ten days and half a month, will the inland rivers freeze? ”
"No!"
Luo Bai's sworn answer made the statement a little incredulous.
"How can you be so sure?"
"The last time we went to Luojia Village, Lord Feng Linghai said that Jiangnan's army would not attack in winter. By that time they were already on the South Shore. They obviously launched an attack at that time but did not move, and now it is not suitable for the attack but they put on a posture of crossing the river, is this what we are playing as monkeys? ”
I have to say that what Luo Bai said is very reasonable.
"Then in your opinion, they must take the waterway this time?"
"No!"
Luo Bai denied it again.
"There's another way."
"Where?"
"Huai'an!"
Huai'an, that's the tail of Huaishui,
If you start from Huai'an, you can avoid the Huaishui natural danger and go straight to Fengyu City!
Luo Bai didn't explain how to march, as long as he said this place, according to the IQ of the statement, he naturally understood the meaning of this place.
The affirmation book frowned, this place can indeed be used as a breakthrough. But the question is, will they go from here?
After all, it's a bit of a detour.
