Everyone looked at Fang Yuan dumbfounded, not knowing what kind of trick he was whimsical at this juncture when the two sides were tense and about to see the bayonet red, relying on the real sword and real gun.

Fang Yuan saw that everyone was at a loss, and more were dissatisfied, dissatisfied with his grinding and chirping, so he patiently explained, "I have heard that Li Qingshan, a rogue from Liangshan, Shandong, once wanted to imitate Song Jiang in the novel and recruit peace to the imperial court, and also met Zhou Yanru, but was deceived by Zhou Yanru, and was finally exterminated. ”

Jing Jie saw that he still had the idea of recruiting an rogue, and hurriedly retorted, "Boss, I've heard of this too, but since Li Qingshan's defeat and execution by Ling Chi, this Liangshan rogue has long been inseparable from the imperial court and has become an enemy of life and death, so why take the risk of bothering to think about it?" ”

Fang Yuan asked the crowd rhetorically, "What is the purpose of our war?" ”

Chigutai said loudly, "Of course, it's to win the war, divide the money, divide the food, and divide the women!" ”

Fang Yuan smiled and said, "What does it mean to win a battle?" If you waste money and food, lose troops, and only exterminate the rogues, but you don't benefit at all, can this kind of battle be called a victory? The court suppressed the rogues, spent money, and killed the sergeants, but the more and more the rogues were suppressed, this is the reason. ”

Jing Jie somewhat understood Fang Yuan's thoughts, that is, he wanted to subdue this Liangshan Liukou in order to enrich the strength of the Xuanjia Army, but he still had scruples about the loyalty of these Liukou, and resolutely objected, "Boss, you don't want to recruit this Liangshan Liukou now!" Even if you can recruit peace now, you must spend a lot of money to appease, if you meet a capricious villain like Zhang Xianzhong, you will spend money in vain, and you will still have endless troubles. ”

Fang Yuan said in a deep voice, "Third brother, who said that I want to go to Zhao'an now?" What is talked about is always not as stable as what is knocked down. The reason why Zhang Xianzhong dared to rebel repeatedly was only because his main force had not been hit hard, so he had the capital to rebel. ”

He looked around at everyone and said unhurriedly, "Fight, it must be beaten, and it will be beaten hard, if you don't subdue these gangsters, they will sincerely accept Zhao'an?!" It's just that my style of play is a little different from what you guys think. According to your thoughts, the 800 cavalry of the Xuanjia Army will directly attack, and in the face of the combined attack of 20,000 Liukou, even if they can win, how many war horses, how many sergeants of the Xuanjia Army, how many thunderbolts, and how many explosion-proof equipment will be lost in this battle? ”

Seeing that everyone was silent, he continued, "Not to mention whether we can win in the face of 20,000 rogues who are fighting for their lives, even if they can win, these rogues are both soldiers and people, if they are defeated and scattered, do we still have to surrender one mountain after another?" The money and food were spent, the equipment was lost, and the sergeants died, but the strength of the Xuanjia Army did not increase at all, but weakened at an accelerated rate. What is the difference between this kind of war-damaged war and the so-called 'good news' of the Ming army's suppression of the Kou before? If that's a win, I'll never fight it. ”

This Xuanjia army is a treasure pimple that Fang Yuan has spent a lot of money to carefully build, but the Liukou is inexhaustible, kill it today, and once there is a wind and grass tomorrow, it will be born again in the spring breeze.

He was reluctant to let the Xuanjia Army go to the battlefield to fight against the endless stream of rogues, causing unnecessary casualties.

Jing Jie asked thoughtfully, "Boss, what do you think?" ”

"I will force the main force of this group of rogues into a mortal place at the minimum cost, so that they have to surrender honestly and use it for my use!"

Fang Yuan led everyone out of the military tent, rode a mile on horseback, and arrived at the riverside of the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal, pointed to the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal at his feet and said, "If we want to force the Liukou to death, we must first cross the stone bridge and cross the river to the other side, and then destroy the stone bridge." These rogues will inevitably cross the river to pursue, so we will attack halfway and use artillery and drone teams to cut off the connection between the rogues crossing the river and the backup troops, so that the rogues who cross the river will enter the place of death and will inevitably surrender to me. ”

Jing Jie stared at the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal illuminated by the moonlight, and carefully thought about Fang Yuan's strategy, but found that there was one of the biggest loopholes in it, "Boss, since Liang Min is waiting for the rain to come, if it doesn't rain, he will definitely not risk crossing the river to pursue." If it rains, the power of our guns and artillery will be greatly weakened, how can we cut the rogue in two? And how to defeat the rogues who crossed the river and pursued? ”

Fang Yuan had already taken this into his chest, patted him on the shoulder with a smile and said, "There are tactics on rainy days, Liang Min thinks he is cautious, but he doesn't know that the biggest mistake he made is that he misjudged our Fang Yuan." Fighting in the rain, he will only lose faster and worse! ”

With Jing Jie's knowledge, he didn't know how the Ming army, which was good at firearms, could make Liang Min lose faster and more miserably on a rainy day, but since he met Fang Yuan, Fang Yuan's new gadgets have emerged in an endless stream, and this time he didn't know what jaw-dropping means he could use, so he could only choose to remain silent.

Fang Yuan turned his head and asked Chigutai, who was in charge of reconnoitring the enemy's situation, "Chigutai, how many bridges are there in front that can be used for the army to cross the river?" ”

Chigutai summoned the sergeant beside him and asked, and replied, "There are three bridges within one or two hundred miles ahead that can be used for the army to cross the river, two are wooden bridges and one is a large stone bridge. ”

Fang Yuan asked again, "What is the depth of the Grand Canal in Shandong?" ”

Jing Jie, who was born in northern Xinjiang, said that "the main sections of the Grand Canal are in Yangzhou, Suzhou, and Hangzhou, and the southern part of the Yangtze River is a natural riverbed with deep currents; The canal in the southeast section of the mountain, most of which are dug manually, the riverbed is shallow, and it is estimated that there is about one zhang of meters in the wet season, and the flow is often interrupted during the dry season, and the water can only be passed through the impoundment of the lock. ”

He looked at the Grand Canal in front of him and said, "Now that the flood season is coming, I estimate the depth of this section of the river, which is only about half a zhang, and I can wade through the water without boats." So Boss, our artillery and drones simply intercept the rogues who are constantly fleeing. ”

Jing Jie's painstaking persuasion was still trying to give up his unrealistic illusions and directly fight with the real guns of the rogue.

Fang Yuan was noncommittal to his persuasion, and said in a deep voice, "Chigutai, you lead three hundred horsemen to burn down the two wooden bridges, and build a fortification on the other side of the stone bridge that can protect you from the wind and rain, which must be completed within two days!" ”

Chigutai promised loudly, because Fang Yuan only gave two days, the task was urgent, and there was no further delay, so he hurriedly rode his horse back to the military tent and began to set off.

Li Zongze rubbed his fists and was eager to try, "Lord Fang, this time it's our turn to make meritorious service in the artillery battalion!" ”

Fang Yuan shook his head and said, "On a rainy day, the power of artillery will be greatly reduced, and the task of this artillery battalion is to get on the ship and cooperate with Qin Zhan's brocade guards to escort the little prince and Tang Ruowang, these artillery experts, quickly leave the battlefield." If there are rogues pursuing the fleet, they will be repelled with artillery. ”

Li Zongze saw that this was a painless escort mission, and his face was full of disappointment, but the military order was difficult to disobey, so he could only give up his orders.

Fang Yuan looked at Su Hongyu again and said, "Sister Su, this time it's your turn to make a great contribution to the drone team." ”

In the previous battles, the cavalry battalion of Chigutai and Li Zongze's artillery battalion all won the first merit, and a lot of silver was rewarded.

The Xuanjia Army gave silver for military merits, and the drone team did not receive a large amount of silver, and there were complaints in the team, and many people had proposed to Su Hongyu to transfer to the cavalry battalion and artillery battalion.

This time, Fang Yuan finally handed over the opportunity to make meritorious contributions to the drone team, and Su Hongyu, who was the leader of the drone, was happy with the past, and hurriedly asked, "Boss, how should the drone team fight this time?" ”

She followed Jing Jie's title, and also recognized Fang Yuan as the boss.

Fang Yuan smiled and said, "I also brought some treasures that are conducive to the rain battle with the army, and tomorrow, I will tell you the detailed tactics." ”

He looked at Jing Jie, who was about to speak again, and said with a smile, "Third brother, after the cavalry of Chigutai set off, your 1,000 Shenji Battalion will serve as the escort of the whole army, remember to strengthen the guard, don't be taken advantage of by the rogues." ”

The group returned to the barracks, Fang Yuan stayed alone in the military tent to rest, Jing Jie's opposition was in his eyes, and he also knew Jing Jie's loyalty.

However, Jing Jie's vision limits his battlefield imagination, and the rain war actually has a rain war style, which must be done with the help of the almighty Taobao system.
