Chapter 191: Fighting and Plotting

Crossing the famous mountain overnight, 50,000 Chu soldiers stepped into Minzhong County, and traveled a hundred miles all the way, and when the day was just dawn, Xiang Tian, the prince of Chu, ordered to set up camp.

The overnight rapid march has exhausted the Chu army, and it is time for the Chu army soldiers to rest.

At this moment, it has entered the territory of Dongou and a war may break out at any time.

At this time, no matter what the reason, it is necessary to ensure that the officers and men of the Chu army are physically strong and mentally full.

……

"Prince, the scout has sent news that most of the people in Dongou live in the dense forest, and there is only one city in Dongou Wangcheng."

……

Hearing this, Xiang Tian, the prince of Chu, frowned slightly, he didn't expect that Minzhong County would still be so backward at this time.

The Great Qin Empire unified the world and established Minzhong County without much effect at all.

"Regardless of the rest, wait until the army rests and take Dongou directly, since Dongou Wang Shake wants to stand on the side of Liu Ji, the king of Han, he must be ready to be destroyed."

"No."

……

Xiang Tian, the prince of Chu, knew in his heart that this time the army went south only to destroy Dongou and Minyue, not to kill all the people of Minzhong County.

This means that this war only needs to kill Dongou Wang Shao and Minyue Wang Wuzhu and the army under their command, and it is enough for civil and military officials.

As long as there is no imperial court and no violent institutions, Minzhong County will definitely become the most stable rear of Chu at that time, and provide the greatest help in the process of the Chu army's struggle for hegemony in the world.

"Prince, defeating the Dongou King is just a trivial matter, but what should Minzhong County do when the time comes?"

There was a solemnity in the eyes of the military advisor, and he knew in his heart that these people of Baiyue were brave and ruthless, and it was difficult to discipline, even if they were domineering as the first emperor, they had to be ruled by the monarch of Baiyue.

But Xiang Tian, the prince of Chu, obviously couldn't do this, and in the process of fighting for hegemony between Chu and Han, the king of Dongou and the king of Minyue all stood on the opposite side of Great Chu.

Therefore, whether it is reasonable or reasonable, Xiang Tian, the prince of Chu, will not let go of these two people.

"Haha......"

Smiling slightly, Xiang Tian, the prince of Chu, looked at the military advisor and said, "The military advisor has not yet captured Dongou yet, is it too early for you to consider this issue now?" ”

"The Dongou army is not more than 10,000, and now the prince is leading 50,000 troops to the city, and the destruction of Dongou City is just an overnight."

The military advisor Zhu Li Shi faced Xiang Tian and said: "There is a way that those who do not seek eternity are not enough to plan for a while, in order to stabilize Minzhong County, this matter must be considered in advance." ”

Glancing at the division, Xiang Tian, the prince of Chu, pondered for a moment, paused word by word, and said: "The military division has a way to be rewarded, there must be brave men, and under heavy pressure, there must be good people." ”

"Lone's meaning is that Baiyue can keep to himself, Lone naturally will not kill in a big way, if they want to resist, Lone doesn't mind having another group of slaves."

"There is still a large area of land in my Chu country that has not been cultivated, and there are still roads that have not been repaired!"

……

Hearing this, Master Zhu Li didn't say much about this matter, and when he saw Xiang Tian's expression, he knew that he had made up his mind.

Persuade a king who has made up his mind, a hero to change his mind, such a stupid thing, the master will naturally not do it.

The thought flickered in his heart, and he was silent for a while, and said: "Prince, this time to the south, due to the road, our army did not carry large-scale siege equipment, I don't know what the prince's plan is for Dongou Wangcheng?" ”

According to Xiang Tian's memory, he naturally knew that the location of Dongou was close to the land on one side, the ocean on the other, and there was a river around the city.

As soon as he thought of this, Xiang Tian, the prince of Chu, looked at Master Lili and said, "According to the news from the vulture, Dongou is bordered by the Oujiang River in the north and the sea in the east. ”

"Although our army did not carry large-scale siege equipment this time, if we want to break through Dongou King City, it is just a reversal!"

……

"The prince is planning to do a flooding strategy?"

A flash of surprise flashed in his heart, and the military advisor couldn't help it, and said.

He knew in his heart that the use of the soldiers of the Chu prince Xiang Tian could be described as the pinnacle of the use of the right time and place, and the strategy of flooding here was nine times out of ten.

"Definitely!"

Shaking his head, Xiang Tian, the prince of Chu, looked at the division and said: "There is a cloud in "Sun Tzu's Art of War: Attacking Chapter": the first army is to attack and plan, the second is to attack the enemy, the second is to attack the army, and then the next is to attack the city; The siege of the city is a last resort. ”

"Defeat the enemy with your own strategy, and surrender without a fight. Sun Wu believed that the strategy was the most advantageous, so he was "going to the army" and was the best means of warfare. ”

"Boom ......"

Hearing the words of Xiang Tian, the prince of Chu, Zhu Lishi's heart was shocked, as a soldier, he was naturally familiar with the book "The Art of War".

Under the impact of his mind, the master couldn't help it, and said, "Attack Chapter 16. The upper army is scheming, the second is the enemy, the second is the army, and the next is the siege. The method of siege is a last resort. ”

"Repair the roller, with instruments, three months and then become, from the miasma, and then three months and then; The ants will be overwhelmed and the ants will be attached to it, and those who will kill a third of the soldiers and the city will not be pulled out, and this attack will also be a disaster. ”

"Therefore, those who make good use of soldiers, the soldiers of the people instead of the war, the city of the people instead of the attack, the destruction of the country of the people instead of the long, will fight for the whole world, so the soldiers are not immediately profitable, and the method of attacking is also."

……

"Hoo ......"

The thought flickered in his heart, and after a long time, a trace of enlightenment passed on the face of the master of the tree, and he couldn't help the throbbing in his heart, and said towards Xiang Tian, the prince of Chu.

"The prince is planning to use the strategy of flooding to force the king of Dongou out of the city to fight?"

"Hmm."

With a slight bow, a smile flashed in the eyes of Xiang Tian, the prince of Chu, who was worthy of being a soldier and a man, and he understood his intentions almost instantly.

"Now our army has an absolute advantage, the only disadvantage is that there is no large siege equipment, and now, the only way is to lure the enemy out of the city."

"Once our army is in the open, Dongou Wang Shao will inevitably be restless, and he will definitely lead the army out of the city to fight."

"Even if you don't go out of the city, our army can fake it at that time, and completely gather the Ou River to flood the Dongou King City."

……

Xiang Tian, the prince of Chu, knew in his heart that in this way, the Chu army would have an absolute advantage no matter what, and the people who lived by the water.

Far more than the people in the inland, more aware of the ruthlessness and power of water, once the Chu army gathers the Ou River, then the king of Dongou will definitely go out of the city, because only out of the city to fight, Dongou has a glimmer of life.

……

"Based on an invincible position, the prince's strategy is wonderful!"

As a soldier's master, with the narration of Xiang Tian, the prince of Chu, he also understood the benefits of doing so in an instant.

After all, although it can be broken through by storming Dongou with a large army, but in this way, the officers and soldiers of the Chu army will inevitably suffer heavy casualties, since there is a way to reduce casualties, the generals of the Chu army will naturally not want to fight hard.
