Chapter 641: Expedition (16)

"Liyang runs through the three major water systems in the north of Qilian Mountain, which is the most difficult to capture, if you want to capture Liyang, you need at least ten times my military strength, can Cangshuo do it?" Emperor Xi inevitably asked this question.

"Yes." Liancheng said, from the cuff out of a transcribed Liyang city defense map, unfolded, Liancheng pointed to the three water systems in front of Liyang and said: "In the past, the intersection of the three major water systems makes Liyang almost a natural danger, Qilian Mountain is steep and difficult to climb, the three major water systems are deep in the valley, and the water flow is turbulent, if it is not an experienced boatman, it is a big trouble for Liyang's own people to cross the river in their spare time, but ......"

Lian Cheng looked at the emperor and his voice was much lower: "The drought in most places in the northern region is serious this year, and although the drought in Liyang is good, the water in the three water systems has dropped to half of what it was in previous years. ”

"What do you say? Halfway? When Di Xi heard half of this word, she almost fell into the back seat of the carriage, if it wasn't for leaning back to support her, it was inevitable that she would have bumped into the carriage and caused a lot of trouble.

Lian Cheng nodded, and his tone was heavy: "The country of Bi has been founded for hundreds of years, and this year is the only time that the water level has dropped by half. Cangshuo will choose this time to send troops, I am afraid that he also wants to take advantage of the dry season to defeat the deployment of the Biguo in one fell swoop. The time is not harmonious, and the benefits of the location to Liyang are reduced by at least half. ”

"It's not half, it's ......" Emperor Xi swallowed: "It's a Jedi." ”

"How?" After all, Liancheng has no real experience on the battlefield, so although this time it is a personal expedition, the actual power of army deployment is still handed over to the veteran generals in the army, and Liancheng is not directly involved in military planning.

It is precisely because of the lack of experience that Liancheng does not understand what the emperor means by what he said, but leaning back is different, leaning back really understands what the emperor said.

"The water level has dropped so much, which means that the Cangshuo army wants to attack the city, and the natural danger has become less important, on the contrary, Qilian Mountain has almost completely surrounded Liyang, and there is only one way to communicate to Shuomo City, and now, outside Shuomo City is already a killing sound, once the army is surrounded, the Liyang army and civilians will have no way to retreat." Emperor Xi's tone was extremely low, and even her already pale face became extremely gray.

Cangshuo's battle, I'm afraid that it has been planned for a long, long time, and it is not caused by the canonization of a Nanyang king and the detention of a queen mother in the Bi Kingdom. Ye Yuezhao, or the first emperor of Cangshuo, I am afraid that a long time ago, I was waiting for an excellent opportunity, an opportunity to swallow the wall country in one bite, but the courtiers of the wall country did not feel the danger at all, and they had already surrounded the wall country in secret, and the infighting has been until now, causing Lian Cheng to bear the great pressure of the day.

"And what's worse is that if our army goes to Liyang, it is very likely that it will become meat in their mouths, and ...... His Majesty seems to have no reason not to rush to the aid of Liyang, once Liyang is lost, the country of the wall is in danger. Leaning back, he also continued to speak lazily through the words of the emperor.

Liancheng, who was not secretly fighting, listened to this, and the sweat on his forehead came out: "That...... Wouldn't that be ...... if that were the case?"

"Don't worry too much, we still have time, even if the water level of the Sanchuan River system is half lower, it will still take a lot of time for the landlubbers in Cangshuo to cross the river in full, as long as we can reach Liyang earlier than them, we may not be defeated." What's more, the two cavalry led by the King of Nanyang and Nanyang respectively played a role in more than just delaying the army of the Northern Desert. The backward gaze did not leave the imperial seal, but he analyzed the current situation for Liancheng in a clear manner.

Leaning back is also what Di Xi thinks, but she doesn't particularly know the specific depth and flow rate of the Sanchuan water system, even if Liyang belongs to the most unbreakable city on the border, it is also because of its easy to defend and difficult to attack city, which has caused the wall country to pay little attention to it for hundreds of years, and it is precisely because of this that Di Xi's topography of Liyang is basically a situation where two eyes are black, but listening to Lean back to say this, Di Xi's heart gradually has confidence.

Since they dare to be so sure of leaning back, if they hurry up to Liyang, they may be able to take the lead.

Thinking of this, Emperor Xi stretched out a hand, pressed it on the word Liyang, and said slowly: "Your Majesty, from today onwards, no longer bury the pot for cooking, everyone will carry two days of dry food and water, and march to Liyang in a hurry. ”

"Half a month?" Liancheng couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this: "According to common sense, it will take at least one and a half months for the army to march and reach Liyang, and half a month is not ......?"

"When we received the emergency military report from the front, the vanguard of Cangshuo had arrived in Shuomo City, and the speed of their large army must not be slow, now the only advantage for us is that we are closer to Liyang, but this advantage is only to barely level the mileage of their army with us, we don't have any time to delay, this meal at noon, let the grain and grass heavy battalion all be changed into dough, we can make as much as we can, after all the distribution, we will no longer stop cooking." After Di Xi finished deploying everything in a slow but firm tone, he looked up at Liancheng again: "I'm worried now that the old general may not agree with my plan. ”

The old general mentioned by Emperor Xi was a senior veteran under Di Jiang at the beginning, and the old man who was over 70 years old this year had been disarmed and returned to the field five years ago, but this time the war was rekindled, and no one in the country could carry the banner of the commander, so he had to do it as a last resort, and Lian Cheng personally went to the field and invited the old general.

But after all, the old general was old and frail, and he marched in a hurry for days, which doomed their team to abandon their commander, and the separation of the army commander has always been a taboo in the army, which Emperor Xi also understood in her heart, so she was really a little worried that the old general Li would not act like this.

"I'm going to communicate with General Lee." Liancheng couldn't help but stop the responsibility on himself.

"Liancheng, General Li has been fighting for decades, and he is the only person in the Biguo who has rich experience in tactics now, what ideas does he have, please remember them all, and then, tell me." Emperor Xi watched Liancheng leave, but before he left, he told him more.

Lian Cheng turned around and glanced at Emperor Xi, nodded, and then jumped out of the carriage and walked away.

As soon as Liancheng left, Emperor Xi covered the corners of his mouth: "Lean back...... I think...... I...... It doesn't seem so good. ”

Before Emperor Xi's words fell, the whole person had already slid down.

Leaned back to hold the emperor's seal, and at the same time stretched out his hand to Tinghe: "Your medicine, give it to me, quickly." "Still struggling with the latest chapter you can't find?
