Chapter 0241 The thief has no future, why does loneliness need a 'long-term plan'?
Liu Ying didn't know anything about the slander in Li Shang's heart.
If she knew, Liu Ying would inevitably explain it in all directions: what exactly is 'all fear comes from lack of firepower'.
Of course, the current situation also made Liu Ying only linger for a moment on the spectacular scene caused by the bed crossbow.
"Huh?"
Lu Shizhi on the side couldn't help but look at him, and finally made Liu Ying react.
"Hmm, it's Qu Zhouhou······"
Seeing that it was Li Shang coming, Liu Ying had no choice but to retract her gaze from the bed crossbow not far away with a little reluctance, and immediately turned around and nodded to Li Shang with a serious face.
"How's the battle going?"
"The soldiers in the city, can there be a sign of low morale, or a sign of fear of the enemy?"
Hearing that Liu Ying asked about the morale of the soldiers in the city, Li Shang's face was a little sad, and he bowed his hand to Liu Yingwei.
"Your Highness, don't worry."
"The soldiers who are stationed in Yongcheng today are all selected by the prime minister in person after the autumn of last year, in order to prepare for His Majesty's pacification of the soldiers used by Zhao."
After speaking in a steady tone, Li Shang turned sideways and looked at the bows and crossbows that were being thrown with bows in the city.
"In this battle, there is no risk of protracted time, and there is no danger of extinction, and the Yongcheng fortress is relied on, and His Royal Highness bows down to the wall to revitalize the army."
"What's more, His Royal Highness promised heavy rewards and generous gifts before the war, and made it clear that the soldiers who were killed and disabled in battle could receive heavy mercy."
"If this is the case, the morale of the army is still unstable, and the ministers believe in the Marquis of Wu, and they will no longer be ashamed to be used by His Majesty as handsome······"
Hearing Li Shang's slightly proud words, Liu Ying was also relieved, and nodded slightly with a smile.
But soon, Liu Ying reacted: she was obviously saying something that obviously had a Versailles atmosphere, but Li Shang's tone and expression faintly revealed a little worry.
Seeing Li Shang's posture like this, Liu Ying thought for a moment, then turned sideways thoughtfully, and nodded slightly to Lu Shizhi beside him.
Soon, the guards of the Southern Army who gathered around Liu Ying on top of the cloud gathering corner tower gave up a few steps of open space within a radius of ten steps under Lu Shizhi's signal.
At this time, Liu Yingcai stepped forward with a gloomy face, gently pulled Li Shang's arm, and came to the corner of the corner tower near the inner side of the city.
"What?"
Seeing that Liu Ying reacted so quickly, Li Shang couldn't bother to marvel at Liu Ying's keen sense of smell, lowered his head slightly, and whispered his worries.
"Your Highness."
"It's already morning (21 o'clock ~ 23 o'clock), at most four hours, lunch to the end of the hour (5 o'clock ~ 7 o'clock), the sky will be bright!"
"In just four hours, the thieves are outnumbered, and at most they will attack the city three times."
"Yongcheng has tens of thousands of pawns, and His Royal Highness is here, no matter what, there is no tomorrow and the hour will not come, and Yongcheng is broken by thieves······"
Hearing Li Shang's words, Liu Ying only nodded subconsciously, but her doubts were even more in her heart.
Four hours and eight hours is indeed a long time for ordinary people.
Even for some lucky workers in later generations, eight hours is all the working time of the day.
But for war, especially for the war of the Cold Weapon Age, four hours is really not a time interval that cannot be ignored, or how important.
Let's take a very simple example.
In later film and television works, there is often such a word that appears in plots about war.
- Eight hundred miles in such and such a place!
However, it is different from the stereotype of most people in later generations: the '800 miles expedited' in the era of cold weapons, but the actual speed did not travel 800 miles a day.
Let's just say that in the Han Dynasty now, the war reports of the specifications of 'eight hundred miles expedited' basically appeared when the border wall was invaded by the Huns.
From Yunzhong City, which was at the forefront of the northern front of the Han Dynasty, to Chang'an City, where the political center of the Han Dynasty was located, it was a distance of about 2,400 miles.
If you calculate according to the '800 miles a day', a '800 miles expedited' sent from the clouds to Chang'an actually only takes three days.
But in fact, the 'Eight Hundred Miles Expedited' battle report sent back from Pegasus in the clouds took about seven days to cover such a distance and send the war report back to Chang'an.
In other words, in today's Han Dynasty, the actual speed of the '800 li expedited' relay transmission of day and night, changing people and horses, is about 400 miles a day.
And four hours, even for the fastest means of information transmission today, only means sending more than 100 miles.
Even the 800-mile expedited military report can only be sent out more than 100 miles in four hours, not to mention what key progress can occur in a city attack and defense battle with more than 50,000 troops on both sides in these four hours.
Li Shang also said: In four hours, the Huainan rebels outside the city can only launch three rounds of attacks at most.
And for a military town like Yongcheng, the three rounds of attacks are even only within the scope of 'mutual temptation'.
This is also the reason why Liu Ying is becoming more and more confused.
"That being the case, why is the right Xiangguo worried?"
Asking without concealing his thoughts, Liu Ying only looked at Li Shang in confusion, and his eyes were suddenly full of confusion.
- Isn't it a good thing that Yongcheng is not in danger?
But when Li Shang heard this, the worry on his face was only worse.
Subconsciously opened his mouth, and looked back mysteriously to the left and right, and after making sure that no one could hear his words, Li Shang turned around and lowered his upper body.
"Your Highness!"
"Before the war, His Royal Highness clearly said that the generals in the city said: Qi and Chu reinforcements will be available tomorrow; The army of Guanzhong led by the Marquis of Xuanping can arrive in only three days! ”
With an anxious expression on his face, Li Shang did not forget to lower the volume, so that even Liu Ying, who was listening to it next to him, was a little inaudible.
"However, now, the Qi army led by the Marquis of Pingyang is still a hundred miles outside the city, seeking an opportunity to set up camp, and it will take at least three days to wait for it to leave the camp!"
"The Chu army led by the general doesn't know when it will come, but no matter what, within five days, it will not be able to help!"
"More reinforcements from the Guanzhong under the command of the Marquis of Xuanping!"
In a hurry, Li Shang's volume suddenly rose, causing Lu Shizhi on the side to break out in a cold sweat!
Reflecting his gaffe, Li Shang hurriedly lowered his volume and continued: "More Xuanping Hou's department, a few days ago, the letter valley was sent out, nearly thousands of miles away, even for ten days, I am afraid I can't come to help~"
After saying that, Li Shang did not forget to grit his teeth with anxiety on his face, and finally put the worries in his heart in front of Liu Ying directly.
"Your Majesty has ever thought: If the reinforcements of Qi and Chu do not arrive at noon tomorrow, what will the generals in the city think?"
"Three days later, the reinforcements of the Xuanping Marquis will not arrive, and the morale of the generals and commanders in the city can still be like this today?"
"If so, it would be enough; If, five days later, not a single soldier arrives at the reinforcements from all sides mentioned by His Highness, Yongcheng will be besieged by thieves and will be trapped in a bitter battle······"
Speaking of this, Li Shang finally quietly stopped talking, and shook his head with a gloomy expression.
"Your Highness's plan, although it can temporarily boost the morale of the soldiers in the city, and the military prestige will not be lost within three or two days, it is by no means a long-term plan······"
Seeing Li Shang shaking his head and sighing with worry, Liu Ying was only slightly stunned, and finally couldn't help shaking his head and laughing.
"Huh······"
"The ······ for the long haul"
Meaningfully squeezing out these words, Liu Ying turned his head and looked at the Huainan rebels outside the city, who were still attacking Yongcheng.
"A long-term plan is for the days to come."
"However, the thief army, I am afraid that there is no 'coming day' to speak of······"
Another whisper finally provoked Li Shang's face to stagnate, and his eyes were about to be full of surprise, and he sprinkled his face with Liu Ying's face full of victory.
"······What does Your Highness mean?"
saw Liu Yingman shaking his head with a relaxed smile, then stretched out his hand and patted Li Shang's shoulder, which was half a head taller than himself.
"In the future, the right minister Guoda doesn't have to worry."
"As long as tomorrow dawns, the gate of Yongcheng is closed, and there are no Huainan thieves in the city, there will be no variables in this battle!"
With a look full of ease dropping this sentence, Liu Ying turned around with a smile and returned to the position where he had stood before.
But what Li Shang didn't know was that although Liu Ying seemed to be looking outside the city at this moment, in fact, Liu Ying's attention had already flown to Liuyi, the capital of Huainan hundreds of miles away······
I stayed in the hospital for two days, and the mobile phone assistant couldn't be opened, and I couldn't tell everyone.
I owe the update to make up for it slowly these days.,Two more today.。
