Chapter 654: Calculation
How many times Bai Gongsha helped Wang Yan, Wang Yan can't remember it clearly, because there are too many times.
Yu Feibai also came with the letters written to himself by Old Man Wang and He Yushan, as well as the two apprentices of Ce Lao, the two brothers Tianji and Tianshi.
Mr. Wang wrote clearly in the letter that Tianji is proficient in the art of war, and Tianshi is good at handling affairs, Wang Yan handed over government affairs to Tianshi, and sure enough, he handled it in an orderly manner, the progress was fast, and the annotations were smooth and orderly, without the slightest flaw, which was perfect.
The tomb robbers of the past have now become the patriarchs of Juying, and he participated in the construction of Liangshan City, and now the city wall has been built, and the facilities in the city are being built in an orderly manner.
The mole also gave Wang Yan a secret letter in private, which was written by Jia Junshi to him, in which he detailed Juying's current situation, and when he saw that Juying had trained 50,000 armor soldiers, Wang Yan suddenly felt a burst of blood rising in his chest.
Wang Yan invited Yu Feibai and Murong Yao'er into his mansion and arranged a guest room for them in the outer courtyard, and as for the mole, Wang Yan arranged him into the backyard of the county government.
In the afternoon, Wang Yan summoned the mole and handed him the Youzhou secret path map he had obtained from Tianyan.
"You're a connoisseur, destroy all these secret passages for me!"
The mole took the secret passage diagram and glanced at it, a hint of banter flashing across his face. "Subordinates take orders!"
With the mole there, Wang Yan no longer worries about the secret passage, don't look at the mole fat, but Wang Yan concluded from his two steps that his ability has not been wasted, but has improved a lot.
Yu Feibai lived in the mansion, and Wang Yan suddenly stopped worrying about the safety of the ladies in the mansion, so he dyed the immortals twice, and in front of the slightly more powerful assassins, he had to be defeated.
Wang Yan transferred Tianji to accompany Aji to command the army, and after Tianshi finished handling official business, Wang Yan summoned him to the side of the council.
"Young Master! What do you want to do with your subordinates? "Tianshi is five years older than Wang Yan, handsome and a very beautiful man, but his brother Tianji, who looks unrestrained, the two stand together, and they will never think that they are brothers.
"Have you read all the information I gave you?"
"My subordinates have read it."
"What's the idea?"
"With all due respect, the five states of Youliang have been run by the White Lotus Sect into a monolith, and if you want to crack it, it is extremely difficult, although the young master's method of starting with the people is good, but the people have been bewitched by the White Lotus Sect for many years, and they have long been convinced of it, and the young master will only do useless work."
"It's useless." Wang Yan's expression gradually became solemn, how could he not know that Wuzhou had been run into an iron plate by the White Lotus Sect, and no matter what he did, the hearts of the people would faintly fall to the side of the White Lotus Sect.
"Young master, those who become big things are not informal, they are not broken, they are not broken, they are broken."
"I can't do it by gravitating external forces to harm the people of the five states." Wang Yan shook his head and said, it is not that Wang Yan has not thought about it, it is only after careful consideration that he understands how heavy the price of that method needs to be paid, whether it is the internal forces that lead the Great Liang or the Turkic forces that are close in front of him, it will cause a catastrophe to the people.
"You don't need the young master to do it, depending on the subordinates, someone will help the young master complete this."
"Are you saying that the Black Fox will attack the White Lotus Sect in the near future?"
"Exactly." Tianshi said confidently.
"Before the army arrived at Huguan, the Black Fox was indeed still fighting with the White Lotus Sect, but as the army entered Huguan, they ceased fighting and then disappeared, how can you conclude that the Black Fox will attack the White Lotus Sect?"
"If the subordinate is a black fox, the subordinate will also choose to temporarily cease the war, let the White Lotus Sect's eyes shift to the young master, and then surprise it and give it a fatal blow." Tian Shi talked eloquently. "The young master will definitely not be able to escape the eyes of the White Lotus Sect, and he will definitely not be able to hide the eyes of the Black Fox, the White Lotus Sect will not sit on the young master to turn Youzhou City into an iron bucket, and the Black Fox will definitely not let go of this opportunity."
Tianshi said reasonably, Wang Yan spread the map of Youzhou on the table, and marked a few marks with charcoal.
In addition to the direction of the state, there are garrisons on the other three sides, Yanzhou on the west side has the largest number, Xiangzhou in the east is second, and Liangzhou garrison in the north is few, only more than 10,000 people.
During the March stay in the imperial city, Wang Yan read countless strategies on the art of war, and with his personal experience, he also realized a lot of things.
The reason why the White Lotus Sect did not set up a garrison in the direction of Bingzhou was to lure the army to retreat in the direction of Bingzhou when it was defeated, Wang Yan concluded that there must have been a net in Bingzhou waiting for him to get in, as for the north, it was also a trap, and in addition to the soldiers of the White Lotus Sect, he was afraid that there would be Turkic iron cavalry waiting for him.
Similarly, if the black fox attacks the White Lotus Sect, it will only be Yanzhou and Xiangzhou, and the black fox will not expose itself to the iron hooves of the Turks, only Yanzhou and Xiangzhou can be attacked and defended after they are captured.
"Which state do you think the Black Fox will attack?"
"My subordinates feel that Xiangzhou is the most likely."
"Even if they can make a detour to Xiangzhou, Xiangzhou is the lair of the White Lotus Sect, are they sure to break through?"
"If the young master is not there, they are naturally not sure, but if the young master is here, the situation will be different." Tianshi said with a smile.
"The black fox wants me to stop the reinforcements from Liangzhou for them." Wang Yan stared at the map and gradually showed a cold smile. "This deal, it seems that I can't afford to do it."
"Young master, the situation is like this, you need to be patient." Tian Shi reminded on the side.
"I know." Wang Yan was silent for a long time and said slowly. "Early tomorrow morning, you will go to the camp and tell Tianji about this and let him prepare."
"Whoa!"
Tianshi exited the room, and Wang Yan stood in front of the area map and looked at it for a while before leaving the meeting room and returning to the mansion.
..
Early the next morning, the mole and his team began to destroy the secret passages in the city, and in half a day, they destroyed six, and it would take at least five days to destroy all the 100 secret passages in the city.
Sure enough, the secret agent sent back the news in the evening, and the White Lotus army stationed in Xiangzhou began to march towards Youzhou City, with about 150,000 people.
Wang Yan immediately ordered the city gate to be closed and the whole army was ready for battle.
And with heavy troops at the exit of the secret passage, Wang Yan was ready to fight in the streets.
From Youzhou City, the border road of Xiangzhou, it takes five to six days to march on foot, and even if it is a rapid march, it will take three to four days, and if the cavalry goes first, it can be reached in a day or two.
Wang Yan likes to plan ahead and prepare early, which is not a bad thing.
The elite of the White Lotus Sect has been placed in the mansion, this time the White Lotus Sect sent troops, the intention of consumption is greater than annihilation, and now there are 130,000 armor soldiers in the city, of which the Tiance elite accounts for 30,000, and the remaining armor soldiers, although they are the identity of the government army, but compared to the general government army, the combat power is much stronger, and if you want to annihilate this force, you must not do it without 200,000 White Lotus elites.
Wang Yan moved the council hall to the tower on the city wall, so that he could overlook the battlefield and observe the movements in the city, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.
At noon the next day, smoke and dust rolled up on the eastern horizon...
