Troop transfer by water?
You Yong laughed and said to Shi Wuce: "The military advisor is too worried! The waterway to the Styx Lake is not passable, but if you go to the East China Sea first and turn to the Styx Lake, it is still possible, but even if the Yin army is from the Panlong River such as the East China Sea, you must first enter the Panlong River from the Kyoto Canal, and it will take at least forty days to go down this way!"
Ding Baizhan nodded, smiled disdainfully and said, "If you go to the Cold River, it will take at least two months!"
Shi Wuce said coldly: "Then what if you go all the way straight? How many days can it take to take the Styx Lake from Lingcheng directly?"
Ding fought a hundred battles, shook his head and said, "But there is no such way at all!"
Shi Wuce sighed faintly: "Not before, it will be in a few days!
Looking at everyone's puzzled looks, Shi Wuce continued: "The spring is warming, the ice and snow are melting, the rivers are rising, and the rivers are diverted! In autumn, the Panlong River is diverted, and in the spring, the cold river is rising. (hua.) There are many capable people in the Yin army, and they will never give up this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to pass through the Cold River and directly reach Dayu Mountain!"
Everyone is no stranger to the diversion of rivers during the flood season, and even Xiaobao used this to ask for the entanglement of the Yin army, so he also thought of this possibility.
Everyone was stunned for a while, if the Yin army really wanted to take advantage of this opportunity, then the war was imminent!
Ding Baizhan looked at Mu Liangshu with a serious expression and asked him, "Brother Mu, how did you learn about this news?"
Mu Liangshu said sincerely: "There is a kind of tree in the grass depression of the Mijiang River, which is called Iron Boat Wood. Hard and light, fireproof and waterproof, has always been the first choice for the Yin army to build ships, when we came, the Yin Dynasty was wantonly expropriating iron ship wood, obviously to step up shipbuilding!"
When everyone heard this, they stopped talking, and the atmosphere was instantly depressed. No matter how much everyone sees death as home, fighting is not child's play, and with the disparity in strength between the two sides, no one will feel relaxed!
Xianyang sighed and muttered in his mouth: "It's a pity that in such a short time, it is still difficult for Xianji to prepare properly, and even the urn city cannot be built!"
"Not necessarily!" Yan Quan at the other table slowly put down the wine bowl, peeled off a peanut and threw it in his mouth, turned his head and said to everyone, "What is the biggest disadvantage of diverting the river?"
Everyone was stunned for a moment, and they were a little confused about what they said. [To see the latest chapter of this book, please go to $>>>cotton_._.flower_._.sugar_._.small_._.say_._
Yan Quan nodded, got up and looked at Xiao Bao and said: "The temporary diversion of the river is because the original riverbed cannot adapt to the sudden surge of a large amount of water, the ice and snow melt, and the water potential rises sharply There is a time limit, that is, two or three days, the Yin army must hurry, so their troops will not be mobilized too much! Also, the rerouted riverbed is of different depths, so although the Yin army has big ships, it cannot be used at this time, so it is also determined that their troops will not invest too much!"
When everyone heard this, they looked surprised and nodded their heads one by one, Yan Quan's analysis was reasonable.
Shi Wuce pondered and said: "In two days, the transportation of small boats, and the strength of the soldiers in Lingcheng outside Kyoto, these conditions are combined, I guess that if the Yin army really chooses to come with Chunxun, the first batch of soldiers to arrive will definitely not exceed 200,000!"
200,000 people? Everyone looked at each other and smiled, and all of them looked at each other as if they had picked up a big bargain! There were many battles in which the enemy was outnumbered, and how did this evenly matched battle look like bullying!
If the Yin army is assembled in this way, then even if they have an army of one million, what can they do with the Xuan army? They only need to break through one by one, no matter how great the difference in strength is, in the end, it will be like bullying others!
Xiaobao smiled slightly and said to everyone: "Now, I am looking forward to them taking advantage of this spring flood opportunity!
Everyone laughed, and they all understood Emperor Zun's thoughts. This first battle really needs a victory!
Recruits enlist in the army, surrender to the army, only a dripping and happy victory can make everyone condense into brothers of life and death, and let everyone follow the Xuanqi to fight in all directions!
Xu knew that the war was coming, and there would be a period of time when he couldn't drink and drink happily, so under the leadership of Xiaobao, everyone let go of their belly and ate and drank!
Drinking until the middle of the moon, everyone was full of wine and food, and returned to the camp satisfied. (hua.
In the big tent of the Chinese army, Xiaobao and Shi Wuce stood in front of the sand table with frowns and were silent. Although the words were easy, Xiaobao still didn't dare to take it lightly, even if there were only 200,000 Yin troops, it was not so easy to deal with!
Not to mention that compared with the Xuan Army, their equipment is more advanced and their combat experience is richer!
This battle is not easy to fight! Xiaobao sighed slightly and beat his head with his hand.
Shi Wuce heard Xiaobao's sigh, and also understood the worry in his heart, and said with a slight smile: "Emperor Zun is not more troubled, in this battle, we occupy the initiative!"
Xiao Bao smiled bitterly, sighed slightly, and said: "In a way, we are indeed taking the initiative, waiting for work, waiting for the rabbit, which can be regarded as a big bargain, but if the battle is stalemate and the enemy has 300,000 troops left, we will be in danger!"
Shi Wuce nodded, admitting that what Xiaobao said was reasonable, but still smiled and said: "Emperor, the initiative that Weichen said is not only in the environment, but more importantly, in the timing of the battle, we have the initiative!"
Xiaobao was stunned for a moment, savoring his words carefully, and was a little puzzled for a while.
Shi Wuce pointed to the sand table and said: "Emperor Don't forget, people come from afar, not to invite our guests, how to entertain people, the decision lies with us!"
Picked up a small red flag on the north gate of Xianji Town, gently inserted it on the north slope of Dayu Mountain, and said to Xiaobao with a smile: "The Hanjiang River has turned a corner here, bypassing Xianji and flowing into the East China Sea, so the Yin army can only get off the boat here, and climb over Dayu Mountain on foot, we will simply intercept him here and prevent them from getting off the boat!"
Xiao Bao raised his eyebrows, spread his hands to Shi Wuce, and said, "Go on!"
Shi Wuce nodded, propped his hands on the table and said: "There are no big ships, no suitable waters, the first batch of the Yin army to come must be troops who are good at fighting on the road, and there are no sailors! They are not used to long-distance boat travel, and their bodies will definitely not be able to stand it! Let's let them not stand it, we will fight when we get off the boat, force them to fight us on the ship, toss for two days, this battle does not need to be fought, our Xuanbing has already won!"
When Xiaobao heard this, he also felt that it made sense, but there was another important matter, which could also become a variable in this battle, and he had to take it into consideration, so he said to Shi Wuce: "This kind of spring flood time is very short, and the water flow is very fast, if we can't intercept it, it will let them enter the East China Sea and attack the Styx Lake from the rear, which will cause us inconvenience!"
Shi Wuce nodded, Xiaobao's consideration is a very important part, and he has to guard against it. The tent was quiet, and neither of them had anything better to do for a while.
But I heard a person outside the tent say in a deep voice: "The last general is willing to lead the Kiss Corps to a decisive battle against the Yin army in the East China Sea!" The curtain was lifted, and You Yong walked in, followed by the fairy sheep.
Xian Yang first asked for guilt: "Please Emperor Zun don't blame the guards, the two of us have the war in mind, so we didn't sleep when we went back, I wanted to come to the Chinese army tent to study the map, but I didn't expect that the emperor and the military advisor had discussed it again, and it was in a critical place, we were inconvenient to disturb, so we listened outside the tent!"
Xiaobao smiled bitterly and shook his head and said to them, "I thought you were already drunk, but I didn't think you were all sober!"
You Yong clenched his fists, stared at the map and said: "The war is urgent, where is the mood to drink! Wait for the victory of the army, you can drink as much as you want! Emperor Zun, I already understand the plan of your military division just now, why don't you let the Kiss Army continue to stay in the East China Sea, but change the patrol position from the west coast to the east coast?"
Shi Wuce shook his head and said: "If my guess is correct, Yinhu's five tigers will be collectively dispatched this time! In the battle of the Styx, the wooden tiger died at the hands of Diexuan Niangniang, and the remaining bronze tiger, fire tiger, and water tiger will not be reconciled, and they will definitely avenge him! Tiehu has been frightened and depressed, and the other three are famous generals of the Yin army, and they have fought countless battles and killed people like hemp!"
You Yong frowned, with a look of disdain on his face, but before he could speak, Shi Wuce sealed his mouth: "Don't forget that the 500,000 army we are talking about is all land troops, 800,000 naval troops in the Yin Dynasty, 500,000 are stationed on the east coast, and 300,000 are in inland rivers." This 500,000 sailors on the east coast think of the Lake of Styx, that is, a day and a night!"
You Yong's expression was awe-inspiring, what the military advisor said was true! Over the years, Yinhu seemed to have sensed the thoughts of the Styx, so he continued to send troops to the East China Sea, but there was no solid evidence, and it was not good for him to directly turn his face with the fairy sheep!
Don't look at the Styx Lake at that time, there were only 50,000 defenders, but this geographical location is very important, the Styx Country has always been eyeing the Central Plains, and the Styx Lake is the gateway to the Central Plains of the Widow Island Country!
However, now that the war has finally happened, the Yin army is likely to requisition the naval army and pacify the East China Sea, so the task of the Kiss Corps is to defend the pass from the East China Sea to the Stygian Lake, so that the Xuan army will not be attacked by the enemy!
You Yong knew that the courage on his shoulders was not light, but if he let the Yin army enter the East China Sea from Dayu Mountain, it would also be equivalent to causing the Xuan army to suffer from the enemy, and this gap could not be blocked!
"Or, I'll divide 20,000?" Saying this, You Yong himself has no bottom, the Kiss Corps has a total of only 50,000 people, and the gap is too big compared to the Yin Army, so he can't take care of himself, where can he be distracted in two places!
But I heard a person outside the tent shouting: "The mouth of Dayu Mountain is at the mouth, just leave it to me!" As soon as the curtain was lifted, a person walked in wet, but it was the eldest disciple of the Pure Water Lotus Seat!
"Senior brother, what's wrong with you?" I didn't see him when I was drinking just now, Xiaobao once sent someone to look for him, but found that several senior brothers were all gone, and no sentry had seen them go out, so I didn't expect that he would appear now!
Lu Wudao arched his hand and said to Xiaobao: "Emperor, I will report to you my whereabouts today later." Let's discuss the war now, and leave the interception battle at the mouth of Dayushan to our Flying Dragon Corps!"
Thousands of disciples of the Pure Water Lotus joined the Flying Dragon Corps, they never left the barracks on the first day, and soaked in the school field all day long, regardless of black and white, and their ability to master military skills made hundreds of thousands of Xuan soldiers impressed!
They were originally kung fu masters, and the lowest was already at the level of martial arts, and there were several inner disciples in the invisible room, and they were already at the stage of martial arts, and their ability to comprehend and master military skills was definitely stronger than others!
