What Xue Yan said was reasonable, which made Jiang Shaoxin and Chen Kong a little dazed. According to Xue Yan's reasoning www.biquge.info, there is indeed a great possibility that the Chu State will come back to attack the Han State, and this time the troops are exactly the way to transport horses, and it seems that they are completely for the Han Pass. This made Jiang Shaoxin confirm most of it in his heart.

"If the State of Chu really came to attack the Han Pass, can this Egret military division say that there is any way to crack it?" Although Jiang Shaoxin received an order not to attack, if the other party all came to the door, it would be a different matter.

"That's what I'm here for. Xue Yan nodded, "The Egret military advisor speculated on the other party's march, so naturally he listed a few ways to deal with it, and I won't hide it from my uncle, so I can drag it out all at this moment for you to choose." ”

"First of all. That is to stick to the Han Pass, gather the army, mobilize materials, garrison the various county checkpoints of the Han Pass, especially to strengthen the defense of the Langzhai county town, order, report to the Han State Lord to send additional reinforcements, at least make the Han Pass standing garrison no less than 150,000 people, can resist the Chu State now and even after the continuous offensive. ”

"This won't work! this won't work!" Before Xue Yan could finish speaking, Chen Kong shouted. In this way, not to mention whether he can make money from the trade road in the future, even the wolf narrow county itself will become a mess, and decades of construction will be in vain.

"The wolf narrow county town can afford one-third of the tax contribution of the border, just the grain and grass, without the foreign trade grain collection of the wolf narrow county town, the army and the people here will not be able to survive a winter, this is completely a desperate policy, absolutely unacceptable!"

"The Han State itself produces little grain, but the supplies from the Guannai are not enough to support the existing army logistics, let alone increase and maintain the scale of 150,000 people. Xueyan niece, this strategy really can't be adopted. Jiang Shaoxin also spoke.

Xueyan nodded, "Well, actually, I don't really agree with this strategy myself. ”

"Then the second method is the middle way. Take a modest approach. We have been in alliance with the Xia and Han countries for many years, like brothers-in-law. It is impossible to sit idly by and watch the Chu State invade the Han State and ignore it. Therefore, the Egret Army Division can recruit troops in Zhennan, including the Xia State Pass, and volunteer to participate in the Han State Defense. Of course, the armament and food and grass are taken care of. However, to ensure the defeat of the Chu army, the Xia State would send at least 50,000 people to participate in the battle. The garrison of this support naturally cannot be the Xia Kingdom itself, but the land of the three counties of Hanguan. However, in order to unify the command, it is necessary to wronged Uncle Jiang and Lord Chen, temporarily hand over the military power, and unify the command of the Egret Army Division of our Xia Kingdom. Come to think of it, the two of them should not have doubts about the command and combat ability of our Xia Country Egret Division. ”

"Of course, just from the record standing, this egret is indeed rare in the world. Jiang Shaoxin nodded, quite agreeing with this method. In fact, Jiang Shaoxin knew that if he fought head-on, his general-level six-star strength might not be afraid of anyone on the battlefield. But if he leads the army to fight, what kind of heart-eye tactics he plays, he may not even be able to compare with Chen Kong, an old slippery head, not to mention a military advisor who knows the world if he has a good strategy.

However, Chen Kong shouted again, "This is not good! Lao Tzu's army cannot be handed over to others." These are all troops brought out by Lao Tzu, and they all listen to me alone. Besides, I don't trust any of your Egret military advisors in the Xia Kingdom, if you want me to obey orders, then I will never be able to do it!"

"You can't do that, you can't do that. What do you want?" Jiang Shaoxin was also a little anxious at this time, "Old Chen, at this time, you are still staring at your one-third of an acre of land?!"

"Jiang boy! What you said is easy, my army of forty or fifty thousand in the county town of Wolf Narrow is all my old buddies who follow me, I handed them over, so if the command lets them take risks, how can you let me agree? Lao Tzu is not worried about the Egret military division of the Xia Kingdom, that kid dares to flood his own county town, what other ruthless things he can't do?!" Chen Kong's face turned red, and he spoke eagerly.

Xue Yan was a little unhappy that Chen Kong said this, but what the other party said was also true, as far as this matter was concerned, many soldiers and civilians in Xia Guo itself were dissatisfied with this.

"Messenger of snow or something, you better talk about the best strategy! I will not agree to either of the above two strategies. Even if Jiang Boy agrees, Lao Tzu won't agree!"

"That's good. Xue Yan is not ready to continue to argue with Chen Kong, "The last strategy is said to be the best policy, but it also requires Han Guo itself to take some risks." ”

"I'm not afraid of risk. Lao Tzu is afraid of being cheated by you!" Chen Kong did not hesitate to say this. Ling Xueyan and Jiang Shaoxin both frowned.

"Okay. The best policy is not to ask for the support of the Han domestic leaders, and the Xia State will not send troops to support, just rely on these soldiers at the border of the Han State, plus the 40,000 soldiers and horses under your Lord Chen. The Egret military division has given you a plan, within three days, the troops will come out of the valley and conquer Han Hu's granary!"

"Send troops?" Jiang Shaoxin was taken aback, "You said you want our border army to take the initiative to attack?"

"Not bad. Xue Yan nodded, "I want you to take the initiative to send troops!"

"Okay!" Chen Kong shouted again, but not in disagreement, but in agreement. "Lao Tzu likes the strategy of taking the initiative to attack! By the way, this is this valley, Lao Tzu has long been eyeing this place!"

Jiang Shaoxin was another clever man, and turned his head to look at Chen Kong, "You suddenly came here today, saying that you were going to send troops, but also to attack the valley?"

"Hey, this egret finally came up with a strategy that echoed Lao Tzu's wishes, yes, this is a good strategy, and it coincides with Lao Tzu. Chen Kong smiled, "Think about it, Han Hu's military strength is empty now, I have explored the valley, and there are only 3,000 military horses in the full battle, I am afraid that even one of our troops will not be able to stop it for a day." ”

"In this valley, the granary is full of grain, enough for an army of 100,000 to eat for a year! If we occupy this place, our wolf narrow county town, no, even the entire border army, will not be short of food and soldiers for a year and a half in the future!"

"I saw that Master Chen did have some research. Xue Yan nodded, "However, attacking the valley is only the first step in the best strategy. Time is pressing, that is, after capturing the valley, the supporting troops will arrive immediately, after all, the opponent has a lot of soldiers and horses, and after the support is in place, it will inevitably first ensure that the food and grass are worry-free. If the battle is timely, then the Han Kingdom can not only seize the grain and grass this time, but also arrange a big ambush for the other party in the valley!"

"In terms of time, Han Hu's own army is not to worry about, this guy is anxious now, and he doesn't know how to face most of his troops. It is a period of recuperation, and he will definitely not fight rashly. This valley is an undefended granary for you to take. It's just that this support force will only arrive in six or seven days, so the time given to us is less than five days. Within five days, as long as you can capture the valley, you can get countless grains, and you can also set up an ambush for the reinforcements of the Chu State. If it succeeds, I am afraid that within a few years after that, the Chu State will not be able to attack the Han and Xia countries!"
