Chapter Twenty-Eight: Audacity (I)
When it comes to the battle with Xinyan Tuliang, He Ran humbly asks for the key points of the grassland battle while listening, often without saying a few words, he asks a lot of questions, until dinner time, King Fan is answering questions for him most of the time.
After dinner, He Ran went to pay homage to the Great Forbidden Lord, the Queen Mother of Fanbang has never participated in government affairs and has no power, this Great Forbidden Lord is more than sixty years old but very tough, and his eyebrows and eyes are quite graceful. Her attitude towards He Ran was very loving, and she knew that she had said good things for herself in front of her mother.
After seeing the Great Forbidden Master, the four of them returned to the account to continue to discuss, He Ran's number of questions gradually decreased, and more time was spent in contemplation, and it was not so easy to answer the questions again, and sometimes they had to discuss with the two brothers before replying, and the speed at which Yi ** learned things made them amazed. He Ran has the knowledge of his previous life as a foundation, and learning these is naturally a bypass, not comparable to ordinary people.
After figuring out the basic common sense of grassland warfare, He Ran agreed with King Fan's judgment that Xinyan Tuliang would attack from the direction of Qizari Mountain.
First, this side of the road is the closest, after learning that Shunren attacked Chen Min, Xin Yan must seize this rare opportunity, march to the army quickly, this is a multi-scale battle, before the war can not let the soldiers and horses be too tired due to rushing, choose a shortcut road is the best choice.
Second, Xin Yan Tuliang has the advantage of troops, and he is not afraid that King Fan will guess his marching route, if the surprise attack fails, it will become a strong attack, and he will not suffer a loss in this battle by relying on superior forces.
He Ran did not agree with the strategy of the decisive battle in Qizari Mountain proposed by King Fan, although there was a favorable terrain, but this kind of hard-fought battle would be too costly, and no matter whether it was won or lost, it would be greatly damaged. He originally wanted to let the king of Fan temporarily avoid his edge, and take advantage of the vastness of the prairie to find an opportunity to fight back in the movement.
King Fan smiled bitterly at this suggestion, "It's too late, although the grassland army can come and go like the wind, but the tribes, cattle and sheep are difficult to transfer in a short period of time, according to what you just said, Xin Yan will immediately attack the whole army when he gets the news of Shunguo's invasion of Xiangguo, and it will be possible to reach Qizari Mountain in five days at most, and some of our tribes are still distributed two or three hundred miles away, and it is too late to transfer." ”
Adar and Yi'an Dzong also spoke.
King Fan nodded while translating, "The third brother said that our royal city Geqiong is not easy to build, and it cannot be discarded, even if the war is unfavorable, it can be defended by the city, and the second brother said that although our numbers are small, we are all warriors and are not afraid of Xin Yan Tuliang, and the battle is not without a chance of winning, the military division has now brought 20,000 horses, and our chances of victory are greater. ”
He Ran shook his body slightly and listened to him with a smile, and he was very worried in his heart, Adar was right, at this time, retreating will indeed affect the direction of some tribes, but hard fighting can only be a lose-lose situation, and at that time, I am afraid it will be difficult to prevent it and the eastbound Tuo Zimang, they will inevitably take advantage ......of it.
Thinking of the eastbound Tuo Zimang, He Ran couldn't help but shiver, his eyes narrowed slightly, thought about it, and then released a cold mang, and said to the king: "The eastbound Tuo Zimang shouldn't go!" ”
King Fan was confused by his words, "What do you mean by this?" He's gone, there's no wrong with that, the spy came back to report after seeing their tribe migrate, and he sent someone to inform me that he was moving to the Yesna River. ”
He Ran snorted lightly and said, "He's lying to the king." ”
"Why is the military advisor so sure?" King Fan asked puzzled.
"How about the people who go east? But stupid and stupid? He Ran asked seriously.
"It's not, but it's not too shrewd, this person has no courage, he doesn't look like a man." King Fan was angry about Dongxing's refusal to help him, and his face was full of disdain when he evaluated.
He Ran hesitated for a moment and said, "Since he has such a temperament, then I dare not say that my judgment is accurate, but Hongkonger once told me that the king has found out that the eastbound has thrown himself into Xin Yan......"
When King Fan heard this, he smiled and waved his hand and said: "That's the case, Dongxing sent someone to explain to me that it was Xin Yan Tuliang and Zhao Guo who jointly put pressure on him, and he was forced to express his support for Xin Yan Tuliang out of desperation, he is a cowardly and unrighteous person, and wants to avoid trouble and protect himself, this cowardly man is like this to tell me the truth, in order to save his life, he doesn't care about shame, he tells me the truth and pretends to be pitiful because he calculates that if I win, he will let him go." ”
"The king can't live in the belly of a villain with the heart of a gentleman, there are some things that have to be guarded against, especially now that all the countries in the Central Plains are involved, and the leaders of the various departments can no longer be looked at with the same eyes as before."
"I understand, but Dongxing should not really stand on the side of Xin Yan Tuliang, the two of them have a blood feud, Dongxing's mother was taken captive by Xin Yan Tuliang's uncle in her early years, and it was only five years later that she took it back, and Dongxing's father died in that chaotic battle."
He Ran was still uneasy, and said: "I felt uneasy when I first heard about the eastward migration, and the more I thought about it at the moment, the more wrong it became, I always felt that he was playing a trick to make the king relax his vigilance against him with migration, and if he killed a horse pistol when the king and Xin Yan were fighting, it would ......."
"The military advisor is worried too much." King Fan was a little unimpressed, and turned his words to the two brothers, Yi Anzong shook his head firmly, it seemed to be the same idea as King Fan, but Adar frowned and whispered something, and soon, Yi Anzong argued with him.
Adar felt that Master Yi's worries were not unreasonable, and King Fan was translating for He Ran while thinking about the debate between the two of them, interjecting two sentences from time to time.
He Ran was suffering from the difficulty of words, and he did not understand the relationship between the various departments of the grassland, so he simply stopped saying anything and thought quietly.
The three of them argued for a long time but there was still no result, and then King Fan remembered that he had patronized the argument and forgot He Ran aside, and apologized for briefly recounting the argument between the three just now.
He Ran smiled noncommittally after hearing this, and said: "This kind of thing can't be asserted just by speculation, because once it is misjudged, it will fall into a situation of no return, and it is prudent to be cautious against the enemy in battle, so it is necessary to set aside a team of men and horses to prevent the eastward journey, if the king feels that there is no need for this, then He Ran please lead 10,000 soldiers from the headquarters to guard the southeast for the king." ”
King Fan saw that although his eyes were peaceful, the firmness revealed made people dare not shake it. is also the one who gave orders, King Fan read his eyes, and knew that this Yi ** master would never give in on this matter, and after twisting his eyebrows and thinking for a while, King Fan nodded and said: "The military division has no last resort, it must make sense to insist on this, so let's let the third brother Yi'anzong take 10,000 people to guard against the eastward Tuo Zimang, and your men and horses are tired all the way and should not be mobilized again." ”
"I ask the king not to translate the following words to the two brothers, I want to ask the king to send the second brother to do this."
"Don't you know, my third brother is the most familiar with the eastbound one, he is from the eastbound one, he knows that the other side has won a hundred battles, and it is most appropriate to send him, you don't see that he doesn't approve of doing this now, but once he is ordered, he will not be disdainful, my brother I understand."
He Ran was not good at forcing it, he deliberately looked at him in embarrassment and hesitated and did not speak, the first time he cooperated, his demeanor was enough to express his attitude.
The displeasure in King Fan's eyes flashed away, and he said with a smile: "Okay, just according to the military division, in the future, the military division will know what kind of person he is after knowing more about my third brother." ”
Seeing that King Fan turned his head and was about to give an order, He Ran said quietly and calmly: "The king is slow." ”
King Fan looked at him with a puzzled and inquiring gaze.
