Chapter 385: Li Zicheng's strategic dilemma
Xiao Yuan lost a move in front of the princess before, so he thought of finding a chance to save the field.
She was shrewd, and after a little thought, she guessed that since Fang Yuan's next target was Zuo Liangyu in Jiangxi, then he suddenly wrote a letter to Li Zicheng, probably to win over Li Zicheng and attack Zuo Liangyu from east to west.
She saw that the princess was still silent in thought, so she opened her mouth first, "Childe, since Zuo Liangyu is sandwiched between us and Li Zicheng, it is better to form an alliance with Li Zicheng, make an appointment to attack Zuo Liangyu, and after the war, the two sides will divide Jiangxi." ”
Fang Yuan neither recognized nor denied it, his gaze fell on Princess Kunxing's body, "Princess, you also have this idea?" ”
The princess pursed her lips and smiled, "No, Mrs. Yuan's strategy is to only know one and not the other, and it is a thousand miles wrong. ”
Seeing that she pretended to refute her opinion, Xiao Yuan couldn't help but fight back and said, "What does the princess have a high opinion, I will listen to it." ”
Princess Kunxing took the time to make Mama Liang bring a sand table, and drew the word 'Li' on the sand table with a wooden chip, representing Li Zicheng's territory, and said, "Will Li Zicheng form an alliance with us, or how can we say that Li Zicheng will form an alliance with us." We must not discuss it from the perspective of our interests alone, but we must put ourselves in Li Zicheng's position and think about it. ”
"What is Li Zicheng's strategic dilemma?"
She drew a circle above Li Zicheng, "He has the heavy troops of the imperial court in the north. ”
She drew a circle to the west of Li Zicheng again, "There is Zhang Xianzhong in the west, and he may go out of Sichuan at any time." ”
She drew a circle to the east of Li Zicheng, "There are 300,000 or 400,000 bandits from Zuo Liangyu on the side of the couch in the east. ”
After Princess Kunxing drew three circles, she said while walking around the sand table, "So Li Zicheng's current strategic dilemma is that he is pressed by the major forces in a corner of Henan and Huguang, and he can't move at all. ”
She analyzed it well, and saw the strategic dilemma faced by Li Zicheng clearly, and Fang Yuan couldn't help but smile to show her praise.
The princess received his encouragement and continued, "If you follow Madam Yuan's suggestion, Li Zicheng and us will flank Zuo Liangyu. ”
She erased Zuo Liangyu on Li Zicheng's right from the sand table, and drew a large circle, with a big 'square' written on it, "Even if Zuo Liangyu is annihilated and some of Zuo Liangyu's Jiangxi territory is divided, the result is just that there are more horses on the eastern front, which is a stronger opponent than Zuo Liangyu." His strategic dilemma has not changed at all, and he is still caught between the imperial court, the horse, and Zhang Xianzhong, unable to move. ”
"And the battle situation is worse than before, because Zuo Liangyu is just a bandit who grabs territory, and the horse is aimed at unifying the world, whether it is the sailor or the army, the military strength exceeds Zuo Liangyu. Li Zicheng is a hero who has dominated the world for more than ten years, and his brain is not stupid, so he will never form an alliance with the horse to attack Zuo Liangyu, and will even assist Zuo Liangyu to jointly resist the horse's westward expedition. ”
Princess Kunxing's gaze swept over Fang Yuan, fell on the pink-faced gloomy Xiao Yuan, and said leisurely, "Li Zicheng's thoughts, of course, are clear to the concubine, so the concubine wrote this private letter to Li Zicheng, the content is not to form an alliance with Li Zicheng, but to warn Li Zicheng not to form an alliance with Zuo Liangyu!" ”
Fang Yuan listened to her reasonable strategic analysis, stroked his palms and laughed and said, "Those who know me, Jiao'er is also!" Good! Very good! Then tell me, how should this letter be written, so that Li Zicheng can obediently obey and not form an alliance with Zuo Liangyu? ”
"How can we say that Li Zicheng is moved, we must start from his strategic dilemma."
Princess Kunxing swept away the previous sand table simulation, drew the word 'Li' again, and pointed to the left of 'Li' and drew a 'Zhang', "If Li Zicheng wants to break through the strategic dilemma, the only way out is to follow Liu Bei's example, enter Sichuan from Huguang, and defeat Zhang Xianzhong." ”
She erased Zhang Xianzhong's name, and Li Zicheng's territory drew a big circle, "In this way, Li Zicheng has Sichuan, Huguang, plus a corner of Henan, two or three provinces, and there are no worries." If you go north, you can attack Shaanxi, you can attack Jiangxi if you go east, and you can attack Yunnan and Guangxi if you go south. ”
"In the letter from the horse to Li Zicheng, there is no need to say much, only more than ten words are enough, 'Jun takes Sichuan, I take Jiangxi, and the momentum of the Three Kingdoms is complete!' ”
For example, after two or three years of mergers, the trend has become clearer and clearer, and the only warlords who still exist and have the ability to compete for the world are left: the imperial court in the north, Fang Yuan in Jiangnan, Zuo Liangyu in Jiangxi, Li Zicheng in Henan and Huguang, and Zhang Xianzhong in Sichuan.
If it is further annexed, there will be the Ming court in the north, Fang Yuan in the south of the Yangtze River, and Li Zicheng in the middle and upper reaches of the Yangtze River, which is very similar to the situation of the three kingdoms of Wei, Shu and Wu. Princess Kunxing can not be more vivid.
Fang Yuan couldn't help but sigh, "Jiao'er, your vision and knowledge are really impressive. ”
The princess pursed her lips and smiled, "It all depends on the cultivation of the concubine, the third uncle, and Sister Su, and of course, the supervision given to me by Mrs. Yuan is indispensable." ”
She didn't shy away from it at all, and went directly to provoke Xiao Yuan, Fang Yuan couldn't cry or laugh when she heard it, Xiao Yuan's face was bloodless, and she was angry and anxious in her heart.
In the second battle with Princess Kunxing, she lost again! And he lost in front of Fang Yuan! If this continues, the Governor's Seal in her custody is really in jeopardy.
Fang Yuan's choice was to continue to make peace with the mud between the two daughters, and said to Xiao Yuan, "Mrs. Yuan, in the future, think twice about everything, sharpen the knife and cut firewood, and write according to what the princess said!" ”
He downplayed the princess's obvious insight and downplayed it as a mistake made by Xiao Yuan without thinking about it and hurriedly exporting, that is, protecting Xiao Yuan.
Xiao Yuan nodded slightly, "Yes, Childe." ”
After dealing with official documents and private messages, Xiao Yuan went angrily.
Fang Yuan looked at her back and sighed, "Jiao'er, as the lady of the main room, you still deserve to be forgiving and forgiving." ”
A smile tugged at the corner of the princess's mouth, and she didn't pay attention to Fang Yuan's protection. Because Fang Yuan is such a character, which party has been wronged and looks more pitiful, he will favor which side.
The princess looked around and asked, "How long will it take for the horses to go to Guangdong and Kinmen to conquer Guangdong and Kinmen?" ”
Guangdong is 2,000 miles away, plus Taiwan is isolated overseas, and there are a group of uncivilized and savage aborigines who have domesticated the island of Taiwan, and it will not take a few months to completely conquer the two places, at least more than a year.
Fang Yuan thought for a while and said, "It is estimated that it will take at least a year!" ”
When the princess heard this, her face suddenly turned red, and she said softly, "Before the horse goes on an expedition, first choose a boy's name and a girl's name." ”
Fang Yuan was slightly stunned, came back to his senses in an instant, hurriedly grabbed her hand, and asked happily, "Jiao'er, are you pregnant?" ”
Princess Kunxing blushed and nodded, "Yes, do you like the pony or not?" ”
Although Fang He is the eldest son, it is not right to be the heir. If the child born by the princess is a boy, he is the sister-in-law of the Fang family and the rightful heir of the Fang family.
Fang Yuan was overjoyed, he wanted to pick her up but was worried about the fetal gas, and said excitedly, "Of course I like it!" From today on, you will be able to raise your baby with peace of mind, and the affairs of the Governor's Mansion will also be handed over to the princes, and you will not be allowed to work anymore. ”
Princess Kunxing blushed and got into his arms, her face was close to his chest, and her heart was filled with a strong sweetness, but also with some regret, "Since the expedition is imminent, we must find out the omissions of the petition office as soon as possible before the southern expedition of the horse, otherwise we will have to wait for a year before the horse returns from the expedition before we can bring down Mrs. Yuan." ”
