Chapter 14 Insights

When entering the Assassin Yamen, Wu Shaogang was still a little cautious. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

This time, it was Su Zong who wanted to see him, so he specially sent someone to invite him.

Wu Shaogang didn't think much about it, so he followed him to the Assassin History Yamen, although the time traveled was not long, he could analyze all the people he came into contact with, Wu Shaogang thought that Su Zongcai's scheming was the deepest.

After passing through a long road, the person leading the way stopped in front of a row of houses, and based on his own judgment, Wu Shaogang believed that this row of houses should be the wing of the Yamen of the Assassin History.

Sure enough, Su Zongcai was standing outside the first house, waiting, and when he saw Wu Shaogang, he had a smile on his face.

Wu Shaogang did not hesitate and saluted with his fists.

"Meet Mr. Sue."

"General Wu, don't be so polite, I invited you here today, I have something I want to ask."

"Mr. Su is polite."

Wu Shaogang's answer was very concise, he didn't know what Su Zongcai meant, so it was difficult to talk more.

Entering the wing room, Wu Shaogang found that the furnishings inside were very simple, the front was a table table, on which some documents were placed, on the left and right sides of the table, there were several chairs, and near the wall on the right, a set of small tables were placed.

Other than that, there was nothing else in the house.

"General Wu, please be seated."

Seeing Su Zongcai sit down behind the table, Wu Shaogang also sat down on the first chair on the right.

"I am very pleased to hear that General Wu has entered the Urging Army, and it is still good to get along with everyone."

"This is thanks to Mr. Su's fulfillment, Mr. Su's kindness, I keep it in mind."

Wu Shaogang's answer satisfied Su Zongcai, but he felt strange that Wu Shaogang was only fifteen years old, how could he seem so mature in his words and deeds, and he seemed to have gone through ups and downs.

However, Su Zongcai has an unusual mind after all, these things, he will not trace back to the source, please Wu Shaogang to come to the Assassin History Yamen, there are other things to ask, the atmosphere of the Assassin History Yamen has been a little delicate recently, Zhang Sheng and Lu Wende do not get along with each other in a particularly harmonious way, there are many contradictions, Su Zongcai has done a lot of mediation in it, but the effect is still not good.

The Mongolian army is about to launch a large-scale attack, which is a well-known thing, and nearly 20,000 sergeants of the imperial army of Ezhou were transferred out of the city and stationed outside the city to prepare to resist the attack of the Mongolian army.

The current contradiction is that the Sichuan army led by Lü Wende to aid Ezhou City should send some of the sergeants out of the city to fight, or all of them should guard the city, and there is a disagreement between Lü Wende and Zhang Sheng on this aspect.

Zhang Sheng believes that the army led by Lu Wende should be concentrated in the city, and a small number of sergeants should be deployed outside the city to resist and delay the pace of the Mongol army's attack, but Lü Wende believes that more sergeants should be deployed outside the city to fight against the Mongol army.

It is impossible to say who is right and who is wrong between Lu Wende and Zhang Sheng.

Because the confidence of the two is not the same, when Lu Wende was in Sichuan, he led the army to fight against the Mongolian army, and really defeated the Mongolian army, and caused the Mongolian Khan Meng Ge and the marshal Wang Dechen to be wounded and killed respectively, which can be said to have achieved a major victory, so when he rushed to aid Ezhou, Lu Wende also thought that he could fight hard with the Mongolian army and strive to completely defeat the Mongolian army.

Zhang Sheng's idea is different, his purpose is to defend the city of Ezhou, as for whether he can completely defeat the Mongolian army, he has no confidence, and some of the situations of the battle of Sichuan, Zhang Sheng also knows, that is, the Mongolian army that attacked Sichuan was also attacked by the plague, which led to a sharp decline in combat effectiveness, which will give the Song army a chance to win, and the main failure of the Mongolian army is still when attacking the Diaoyu City, the Song army relied on the strong city to obtain the victory, it is now winter, and the plague has long passed, After the adjustment of the Mongolian army, the combat effectiveness has basically recovered, and at this time, going out of the city to fight to the death with the Mongolian army will definitely not end well.

The dispute between the managers must be confusing.

Seeing such a situation, Su Zongcai was extremely anxious, he never imagined that Lu Wende led a large army to aid Ezhou, which was originally a good thing, but now it has become the biggest problem in how to form a joint force, garrison Ezhou and resist the Mongolian army.

These are all things at the highest level, and not many people know about it, and even Gundam and others don't know the specific situation.

Su Zongcai thought about asking Wu Shaogang, also because of the impression left by several meetings, he always felt that Wu Shaogang was by no means an ordinary martial artist, he must have ideas in his heart, and he could even analyze the battle situation.

Su Zongcai hopes to be able to hear other analyses and listen to more opinions, it is always beneficial.

"General Wu, the Mongolian army may be about to launch an attack on Ezhou in a short time, are you ready?"

"I am ready to resolutely defend Ezhou City."

"That's good, I have some ideas about how to defend the city of Ezhou and how to defeat the Mongolian army, and I can't make a decision for a while, I want to hear what you think."

"Mr. Su, my duty is to guard the city and win the battle in accordance with the orders from above, as for other matters, especially the deployment of the campaign, I am not very familiar with them, and I have not thought about these matters, I am afraid that I will disappoint Mr. Su."

Su Zongcai looked at Wu Shaogang, his eyes were quite sharp.

"Today is our private discussion, what General Wu thinks, just say it, there are not so many scruples."

"Mr. Su said this, and I reluctantly embarrassed it."

Su Zongcai nodded, and began to talk about the deployment of troops, he said quite vaguely, the specific deployment of military forces, that is top secret, must not be leaked out, so Su Zongcai's final question fell on two aspects, that is, whether the army should stick to the city, or boldly go out to attack.

Wu Shaogang listened very carefully, and after Su Zong finished speaking, he thought for a moment and answered.

"Mr. Su, I feel that the Mongolian army launched such a large-scale offensive, and it was prepared for a long time to complete its work, and it was a long time of preparation and planning, so their offensive was extremely fierce, and it was bound to win, but it was a pity that they were running for a long time, and there must be many difficulties, for example, there were problems in the supply of grain and grass, and it was definitely insufficient to raise it on the spot, and it was necessary to deploy it over a long distance.

When Wu Shaogang said these words, Su Zongcai's eyes lit up, he couldn't imagine that Wu Shaogang would make such an accurate analysis.

Wu Shaogang didn't think of it that much, he just made an analysis based on his own instinct.

"I think that under such circumstances, the Mongolian army can only take the initiative to attack, even if it is not much chance of winning the city, they must insist, which led to the defeat of the Mongolian army in the attack on Diaoyu City, Meng Ge was killed, and the Mongolian army attacking Sichuan could only be forced to evacuate."

"Now, Deputy Envoy Lu Chengxuan has led the army into the city, and the commander Gao has also returned to the city and strengthened the protection of the city of Ezhou. The morale of the officers and sergeants is high, and the Mongolian army wants to capture the city of Ezhou, I am afraid that it is impossible. ”

"There is another point I can't understand, the weather has improved, many days have passed, the Mongolian army should launch a large-scale offensive, but several days have passed, and there has been no action, why is this?"

。。。

Wu Shaogang's analysis made Su Zongcai's expression more and more focused.

But when he said this, Wu Shaogang stopped.

"General Wu, what you said is very reasonable, the analysis is incisive, and then you think why the Mongolian army has been delayed in launching an attack."

By this time, Su Zong had forgotten his original intention and did not ask the question of how the troops should be deployed.

"I heard that it was Kublai Khan, the prince of Mongolia, who led the Mongol army to attack, and it was rumored that he was about to inherit the position of the Great Khan of Mongolia.

Su Zongcai's body trembled slightly, stood up excitedly, and walked around the table to Wu Shaogang.

"Well said, well said, I have been thinking about this question, why did the Mongolian army delay in attacking, General Wu, your analysis is very reasonable."

Wu Shaogang looked at Su Zongcai and continued to speak.

"If this analysis is true, then Kublai Khan's so-called attack on Ezhou is just a posture and an illusory shot, and if this is really the case, then the crisis in Ezhou will soon pass."

"Mr. Su, this is just my idea, whether the actual situation is like this, I am not sure."

Wu Shaogang finally expressed his attitude, in fact, all the previous analysis, he did not say it casually, the historical Kublai Khan, who returned to the Mongolian steppe in 1259 AD and inherited the throne the following year.

For Kublai Khan, the battle for the Khan throne was definitely more important than the attack on Ezhou.

It is precisely because he knows this period of history and after serious thinking that Wu Shao was able to talk eloquently just now, and he told Su Zongcai that these analyses also have the meaning of repaying gratitude, and in the face of others, Wu Shaogang will not speak.

Su Zongcai's expression had become very focused, and he should be thinking about the many words that Wu Shaogang had just said.

Seeing such a situation, Wu Shaogang stood up and opened his fist at Su Zongcai.

"Mr. Su still has something to do, so I won't bother and leave here."

Su Zongcai did not deliberately keep it.

"Okay, I do have some things to deal with, and I'll stop here today, but there are some things in the future, I'm afraid I will have to ask General Wu, and I hope General Wu will know everything."

"I will."

After Wu Shaogang left the Assassin Yamen, Su Zong thought about it for nearly half an hour.

When he looked up again, Su Zongcai's face had become solemn, just now he had thought about recommending Wu Shaogang to Zhang Sheng and helping Zhang Sheng to give advice, but this idea was quickly extinguished, Wu Shaogang is so young, he has an unusual and incisive analysis, which will make people doubt, and most importantly, Zhang Sheng will not believe all this at all.

However, talents like Wu Shaogang must be retained.

After thinking about everything, Su Zong left the wing room and headed towards the backyard.
