[149] War

In the command room, which was not very large, under the expansion and contraction of the lights, it fell into silence in an instant, and it was surprisingly quiet.

Except for Xiao Shizhu, the other three ghosts were all slightly stunned when they heard this.

Ying Zhao Lu Wu was silent, Hu Hui was slightly moved, frowned and asked: "General, no, the king, hasn't the battle plan been formulated a long time ago?" And according to your request, I left behind 5,000 Xiao family troops, as well as Wu Zhiqi and Yurong Qianhu, in addition to 10,000 Jiuyou troops in Danshui City, and 20,000 troops newly formed by the people and local souls. ”。

"Could it be ......" paused, and the doubts in Hu Hui's eyes became heavier and heavier: "Are you worried that there will be changes over there?"

"The original plan, just one of mine*. This time the joint troops, Zhu Rong had a traitor in the country, so he had to push the boat down the river. Xiao Shizhu said this, and explained his guesses about Changqin's uncle Wu Hui to them one by one.

The bean-sized flames in the candlestick bronze lamps placed on both sides of the room swayed again as he spoke, and there was a "crackling" sound on the wick from time to time.

"So, did he Wu Hui deliberately not see the flaws?" Lu Wu asked thoughtfully after listening patiently.

"Well, but that's just my guess, maybe he's not dealing with us, but against the Fire King and the Long Piano. But he needs this war to reduce the forces that support the Fire King Zhurong and Changqin, especially the forces in the army. We, however, were part of his unexpectedness. Xiao Shizhu nodded his head, frowned, and said, "But in this way, I can only push the boat down the river, and propose a way to use a small boat to maneuver at sea and restrain the clumsiness of a large ship." But this is not a long-term solution after all, once there are ghosts in the Gonggong country, they will definitely be able to come up with a way to crack this move. ”。

"Persimmon picks up the soft pinch?" Hu Hui was startled after thinking about it for a while, looked at Xiao Shizhu in a daze, and said: "First take our country and take the main force, part of it will drag our main force at sea, and part of it will go straight down the river, and only take the head of the county?

But seeing that Fang had just finished speaking, Xiao Shizhu nodded his head, and Hu Hui was already in a cold sweat on his palms.

Half a year ago, the county of Shentou had just experienced a major war, and all the cities in various places were still in the recovery period; especially the fortifications, several cities near the Gonggong country, which had almost not yet been rebuilt, once Xiao Shizhu's speculation became true, then the county would experience a catastrophe.

At that time, the peace and stability promised by Xiao Shizhu to the local people will become a bunch of lies invisibly. Even if the Gonggong fail to conquer the county, their rule in the county will be shaken from now on.

"My thinking is this, since you want to push the boat down the river, then you will push the bottom, so now the war in the north must be launched as scheduled, and the county of Shentou cannot ignore it. Xiao Shizhu walked to the side of the map, swept his eyes on the head of the county, pointed to the west of the county, and arranged the three cities of Tiantong, Tianlin and Tianzhan on the map as a triangle, and his eyes turned and said: "These three cities are not only next to the Gonggong country, and they can rely on each other to support each other, and there are Danshui tributaries on both sides of the north and south, which enter the enemy country from east to west. Once the Gonggong counterattacks, they will inevitably attack along the two rivers, and you must hold on to these three cities, block them on the river, and not approach Danshui City. ”。

After finishing speaking, he pointed to Danshui City on the map to the northeast of Tianlin City.

"No wonder a few days ago, there were underwater dragon king cannons sent from Black Dragon County every day. Lu Wu nodded slightly thoughtfully, and said, "It turns out that you have been prepared, big brother. ”。 Speaking of this, Lu Wu suddenly realized why a year ago, Xiao Shizhu gave an order to the autumn frost of Sanxing Island; warships can be developed slowly, but transport ships must speed up production, and they are transported to ensure the speed and transportation volume of the counties in the country.

This ensures that in the event of war, all kinds of goods can be quickly circulated between the counties.

"Yes. I had already ordered Ah San to buy a large amount of fierce fire oil quickly, and now I have bought at least tens of thousands of stones. Then he ordered him to take all the city personnel in Zhurong Country to escort the fierce fire oil to Zhentou County, presumably when you arrive, they should also arrive. All of them were used to greet the Communist Labor Army who dared to come and invade. Xiao Shizhu nodded his head and said solemnly: "If it is the main force of the Gonggong who invades Dantou County, I will be held back no matter what." ”。

Although Hu Hui knew that it was difficult, he still typed without thinking: "No!".

"I know that this battle may become the most difficult battle for our Xiao family army since its formation, but we can't help but fight. If the country wants to be strong, land and people are also very important, and it is indispensable to expand the territory; not to mention that the land of the communist country is fertile and must be taken away. And since I am cooperating with Zhu Rongguo, in order to show our sincerity, we can't send too few sergeants on the main battlefield here, so we can't send you a large number of troops immediately. Xiao Shizhu stepped forward and patted Hu Hui's shoulder heavily, the corners of his mouth moved and wanted to say something, but after wanting to stop for a while, he still couldn't say it.

Hu Hui's eyes burst out with a determined gaze, swept away the seriousness on his face, nodded, and said, "Don't worry, the king, even if you die and only one minister is left, you will definitely not let the Communist Labor Army get closer to Danshui City." ”。

Just to repay him, Xiao Shizhu promised him a way to live for Ghost Qian'er, and the other party was also very kind to his daughter, who did not dare to recognize him.

Compared with Mo Zhai, Xiao Shizhu is more ruthless, but he is also more honest, and he can also treat enemies who lay down their weapons with courtesy. What's more, Xiao Shizhu will not be like Mo Zhai, whose selfish desires swell to the point of ignoring the life and death of his ghosts.

Therefore, even if he doesn't say a word, Hu Hui will choose to fight for him to the end.

Just like other generals, they are willing to follow Xiao Shizhu, willingly!

Xiao Shizhu took advantage of the light in the lampstand to glance at the fortitude on his face, suddenly bent his waist, and said sincerely: "I thank you in advance on behalf of the 360,000 households in Zhentou County." ”。

"The King. Hu Hui was startled, his face was a little panicked, and he hurriedly stepped forward to support him, and said urgently: "What are you doing?"

"I have rehearsed this battle hundreds of times in my heart, and I know the danger of this battle, and I know the cruelty and difficulty of this battle, and many brothers will be buried between the two rivers, but in any case, please hold on, at least for a month. ”。 While speaking, Xiao Shizhu never raised his head.

No one could clearly see the look on his face at this time, but judging from his somewhat trembling voice, he should have felt guilty.

"Don't worry, I'll do my best. I'll do it. Hu Hui didn't say much, nodded after speaking, and turned to leave.

"Heroic moves. As soon as the gate opened and closed, Hu Hui's figure disappeared from Xiao Shizhu's sight, and he said: "Once you land, you and your empty cavalry will immediately return to Zhentou County." ”。

"Good!" Ying Zhao responded.

"Lu Wu, the cavalry you formed will become the main force after our army lands with the new army of Yumin and Zhentoumin led by Qin Yuan. Xiao Shizhu looked solemn again, walked to the map and glanced at the place of Fengdui County on the map, and beckoned to Lu Wuyi behind him: "I expect that if the enemy plays a trick for us, he will definitely leave an empty beachhead for us, and the enemy army that pins us down will definitely wait for us in the middle or south of the county, so we will give them a plan." According to the strategy developed by me and Changqin, after the landing, he marched from the northwest, and our army marched from the northeast, but we did not go directly south, but turned around and killed in the southeast. ”......

After nightfall, the largest port in the north of the Gonggong country, the sea outside the port of Duxu, presents a vast scene of smoke and waves.

The white mist spread like smoke on the surface of the sea. The vast mist is like an elf, fluttering its wings around the sea, making the already vast sea appear much wider.

It's also a little more mysterious.

In the quiet mist, three fortune ships and five Guangzhou ships stopped on the sea ten miles outside the twilight harbor.

They were lined up, no more than a few feet apart, with their bows pointing north, and each with a blue flag at the top of its mast embroidered with waves.

It was the warship of the Communist Workers' State.

On the bow deck of the flagship ship in the middle, a young soldier stood guard, holding a telescope in his hand, and kept looking at the white fog ahead.

It seems to be trying to find something from it.

Half a foot behind him, two middle-aged soldiers sat cross-legged on the deck, each holding a wine bag sewn from animal skins.

Between the two ghosts, there was a small oil lamp, and the flames the size of fingernails could only illuminate the left and right three feet of ground, but the white fog was getting thicker and thicker, and the flames could only illuminate two feet of ground.

"Sixth. The middle-aged soldier on the right shouted at the young soldier standing at the bow of the boat, and scolded: "With such a big sea fog, the telescope in your hand is of any use?"

"Yes. The young soldier named Lao Liu thought about it and felt reasonable, so he put away his binoculars and turned back; after walking to the middle-aged soldier and sitting down, he scratched his face with his index finger a few times and asked, "Brother Li, did you say that you are full of food and support up there?" This ghost weather insists that we come out to investigate. ”。

"I can't see a single fart. Then, the sixth muttered again.

"Isn't this often the case above?" The soldier who was called Brother Li by the sixth child showed a trace of unhappiness on his face, and scolded in a deep voice: "If you have nothing to do, you can toss us blindly to make them appear to be superior to us." ”。

"You can't say that. As soon as the words fell, the strong man with a beard opposite Brother Li retorted.

"I've heard about it. He leaned forward, his face lit up with the flickering light of the oil lamp in the breeze, and he deliberately lowered his voice a little, and said mysteriously, "There is going to be war." ”。
