Chapter 1289: The Role of the Castle
Yuwen Nobunaga said: "The reason is very simple, the strength of the Gu family is too strong, the Mercenary Guild and the Commercial Guild have been deflated by Gu Tiancheng, the Kingdom Guild is not a fool, and it will not be stupid enough to jump out to prevent the Han from becoming emperor."
At that time, there are only two ways for the Kingdom Guild to intervene and maintain its authority, and the other is to admit that it is not strong enough and let the Psychic Hall and other guilds intervene.
According to the old way, arranging a seat for the Great Han in the Kingdom Guild will definitely not work. The Great Han has enough strength to be the emperor, and of course he is not willing to bow down to the Kingdom Guild.
However, either path would be a great loss for the Kingdom Guild. Therefore, the Great Han will become a thorn in the side of the Kingdom Guild and a thorn in the flesh. It will definitely fight to the death with the big man. This is certainly a good thing for other kingdoms that want to be emperors.
But for Dahan, he took on the pressure of the Kingdom Guild alone, and he cheapened others for nothing. It's not a good thing. ”
"However, if you think so, no one dares to take the first step, wouldn't it be cheaper for the Kingdom Guild?" asked Gu Tiancheng.
Yuwen Nobunaga said: "If the Kingdom Guild is an active and promising guild, it is long overdue to use the resources at hand to stake the land and establish the guild empire. It's a pity that the people in the Kingdom Guild are all a group of silverfish, and they just want to lie there and enjoy the offerings of the kingdom below, and they don't want to contribute half of their own efforts.
Compare it with other guilds, and even compare it with the Psychic Palace, to know how comfortable the life of the Kingdom Guild is. In order to compete for interests, other guilds continue to infiltrate various fields, and at the same time, how much effort has been made to ensure that their core areas are not eroded?
Such a kingdom guild has long been rotten to the roots, and there is no way to save it. Other guilds and psychic halls have been slowly infiltrating the kingdom realm for a long time, but they don't want to bear the pressure from the kingdom guild alone, so they haven't officially put up a big banner.
Do you think that such a Kingdom Guild will not be the first to stand up?"
I have to say that Gu Tiancheng admires Yuwen Nobunaga's analysis. The Kingdom Guild obviously has a good card, but it is their own inaction, their own laziness, and the complete waste of the big picture.
After visiting the chariot, Princess Wencheng discussed the attack and defense of the castle with Yuwen Nobunaga. In any enterprising general, there are problems that are difficult to capture the castle and cannot be bypassed and turned a blind eye.
In this regard, Yubun Nobunaga has his own understanding, castles are generally built in places that are easy to defend and difficult to attack, and forcibly captured, often taking years without success. In vain, he frustrated the soldiers under the castle and wasted the strength of the army.
In that case, why can't you choose to isolate the castle, bypass it, and advance in depth?
As soon as Yuwen Nobunaga said this, Gu Tiancheng also joined in. Regarding the castle attack and defense battle, Gu Tiancheng thought that he still had some right to speak. After all, his family faced the Iron Wall Fort, and he fought for decades, and it was not until the recent surge in strength that he won it in one fell swoop with his crushing strength.
You know, it used five or six saint-level characters to infiltrate the Iron Wall Fort, and with the help of the facilities and defense system inside the Iron Wall Fort, they inflicted heavy damage on the Iron Wall Fortress from the inside. Strictly speaking, there is still an element of luck.
Rao is like this, whether it is the Han or the Gu family, they have suffered a lot of losses in the process of capturing the Iron Wall Fort. 3a Reading Network
If Yuwen Nobunaga's bypass strategy can be established, wouldn't it mean that the Gu family's stay under the Iron Wall Fort like fools for decades is actually a problem of inadequate military command?
Of course, this is difficult for Gu Tiancheng to accept, so it is necessary to join the debate.
"The military inside the castle is strong, and you rush around it, waiting for your rear to be completely exposed in front of the castle. If I am the commander of the castle, I will divide my forces and attack your logistics supply points, so that the army in front of you will not be able to supply the rear. It is impossible for a large army to replenish itself on the front alone. In this way, there is no need for a big war, and the logistics alone will be enough for your army to collapse without a fight. Either obediently retreat, and in the process of retreating, you will have to endure my tail, or you will be routed on the front line and be surrounded by others. ”
Gu Tiancheng unceremoniously pointed out the unreliability of Yuwen Nobunaga's statement.
Princess Wencheng also nodded and said, "The castle is not a small cottage, there are often hundreds of thousands of troops in it. It is an existence that can destroy the country. Putting the castle behind you is like a taboo for a soldier, right?"
Yubun Nobunaga smiled: "You have fully explained the importance of the castle just now, so it is understandable that I made some special arrangements in order to seize the castle."
If I were a commander, I would attack the castle, and I would never take it by force, it would be a joke on the lives of the soldiers and the dignity of the army. What I want to do is to surround the castle and clear the wilderness within a radius of 100 miles!
In order to replenish the supplies of my own army, within a radius of 100 miles, I will arrange three or four large material storage places and garrison them. In this way, there are enough people to be responsible for the task of transporting materials within a radius of 100 miles.
At the same time, this is also my base station for reconnaissance of the enemy. Use aerial reconnaissance ,—— don't tell me that you don't have aerial reconnaissance ,—— you can know all the military movements in the castle in advance.
The castle dared to attack, and it just happened to fall into my arms: to engage in a field battle with the other side, and under the superior forces, the opponent had no physiology.
If the castle does not dare to attack and keeps shrinking, the castle's super strong military reserves will become the biggest shortcoming,—— the castle's food and grass cannot be maintained for a long time,—— so I will have the opportunity to face a group of enemy troops who are changing internally.
As long as the castle's material reserves are exhausted, how to fight the next battle is all my initiative. There is no reason why you can't win. ”
"Within a radius of a hundred miles, the walls are clear?" the others were shocked by Yuwen Nobunaga's methods, "Do you know how much trouble this will make? What about those who don't want to relocate? Kill them on the spot? Then you can't run away because of your notoriety of killing."
Besides, Jianbi Qingye is a delicate job, which is very time-consuming and energy-consuming, even if you have enough manpower and financial resources to promote this matter, people are not vegetarians, can you watch you encircle and suppress the castle without being indifferent?"
Yubun Nobunaga said: "Being able to attack the castle means that I have an absolute advantage. I wish the other side would send troops to fight. For the sake of a castle, the other party is constantly consuming vital forces and attacking my fortifications, do you think this is a good choice?
In the final analysis, the castle is still a myth, in fact, the role of the castle is a fortress, not with the castle everything will be fine. We should not underestimate the role of castles, but it is not advisable to overestimate them. ”
