Chapter 171: Strategic Conception
"Don't forget to ask Gongsun Ban to bring all their large equipment and all the supplies, and leave nothing behind! No matter how many people are needed to transport it, it will be transported away, and it will not matter how much silver it costs. "Xiao Chen is going to take away a large processing plant.
He knows too well how important these equipment and materials are, they are military now, and they will be civilian in the future, since Xiao Chen decided to rebel, he has considered it quite a long time.
"It would be nice if we could go by water, and these supplies could be loaded on two cargo ships, and it would save the big guys from walking." Ye Baiqing sighed.
"The Shunfeng port of Yanyun County is now occupied by the Rus, and our ships can't drive in, and the Great Zhou Sailor is too useless to do anything else." Wei Yuntian said.
Located at the easternmost tip of Yanyun County, Shunfeng Port is a natural haven that can not only moor countless ships, but also prevent the sea from freezing in winter.
The Rus' people had coveted this excellent port for a long time, and took advantage of the fierce battle between the Han and the Great Zhou to brazenly send troops to occupy it.
Their sailors are very powerful, not inferior to Dongying, the Great Zhou Sailors have just been established, and they can't even take care of the coast, and they are not able to recover the lost territory at all.
There is nothing that can be done on land, and it is said that Yanyun County is about to be swept away by the Xian Xiao cavalry......
It's all tears.
"In the future, we must take this port." No matter how Chen Jisheng wins it, he doesn't care if he can win it or not, but he must win it.
He is only responsible for strategy, and the specific tactics will be considered by Zhuge Xiaosheng.
The concept of the operational strategy for going to northern Xinjiang was also put forward by him at the earliest, and it was only eight words: defense is the offense, and peace is precious.
The Xian Cavalry is not only strong in combat, but the most terrifying thing is their mobility, which can come in an instant, or they can escape without a trace in an instant.
So it's very difficult to completely annihilate them, and there aren't enough cavalry, mainly.
With Xiao Chen's current strength, he can only take a defensive position, which is also the reason why he asked for a large number of ironclad ballistas, first seeking self-protection, and then seeking others.
If you can win one or two victories on this basis and have a foothold, then you have basically completed the first step of the strategy.
Then look for an opportunity to take the initiative to attack, as much as possible to annihilate their living force, you can eat in small bites, eat separately, eat slowly, this is to defend as an attack.
As long as they are hurt and injured, then you can sit down with them and negotiate, and strive to form an alliance, which is called peace is precious.
That is what he once said, to survive in the cracks.
Of course, the strategy is such a strategy, and there are all kinds of difficulties in implementing it.
First of all, you have to be able to hold the first battle, and if you are directly defeated after contacting others, then you don't have to think about the rest of the matter.
Then you have to implement a backup plan, to put it bluntly, you have to run away, and the place to settle has been considered, there are two options, one is to go to Yizhou to join Xiao Xinghan, although you can send people under the fence, but you can temporarily settle down.
Another option is to cross the ocean and seek development on another continent, which is Xiao Chen's suggestion.
He knew that many continents were now inaccessible, and there were only some primitive indigenous tribes, which belonged to the kind of 'easy to get along with'......
In the middle of the night, Fu Yan arrived as promised.
"Hall Master Fu, I don't care how many people you still have in Fengyang City, you must evacuate immediately, including you, if my expectations are correct, Fengyang will be closed within three days, and you won't be able to leave if you want to, I know that you are not afraid of death, but don't make unnecessary casualties." Xiao Chen went straight to the point.
"What's going on?" Fu Yan was stunned when he heard this, what are you going to let us all evacuate, who do you think you are? The helmsman?
Your position as the hall master of the Blue Dragon Hall is only in name......
"The crown prince is about to die, and after his death, Li Wanjiang will definitely be angry with you and launch a large-scale search and arrest operation." Xiao Chen said.
"Hehe, he's not the first time he's hunted us down, and he hasn't caught me any time." Fu Yan didn't think so.
"This time is different, Li Wanjiang will be serious, Fengyang City is just the first to bear the brunt, the next thing is to comprehensively clean up, so that you don't have any place in the Great Zhou!" Xiao Chen was a little angry when he saw Fu Yan's careless attitude.
"I know about this, I'll tell the chief helmsman when I go back......" Fu Yan said this casually.
"Hall Master Fu, that's all I say, it's up to you whether you listen or not, but you have to remember that if you want to leave, within three days, and after three days, you won't be able to leave if you want to." Xiao Chen's heart, it's really cool.
This Fu Yan not only didn't believe his words, but he might also suspect that this was a conspiracy between himself and Li Wanjiang, wanting to clear all of their Tianxuanhui from Fengyang City.
Kindness was treated as a donkey's liver and lungs, why do you say Xiao Chen is suffering?
"Hall Master Xiao, what do I not know about your kindness? Rest assured, I will make arrangements...... However, Hall Master Xiao, you are in a very dangerous situation now, the chief helmsman and the big guy mean that you don't go to Northern Xinjiang, I will arrange a boat in Haining Bay and send him directly to Yizhou. Fu Yan finally said something human.
"Thank you for the kindness of the chief helmsman and brothers, but I can't leave now, my every move is under the surveillance of Li Wanjiang, as long as there is a slight change, disaster will come! Although it is dangerous to go to the northern Xinjiang, I will try to find a way to survive, and if I am lucky enough to gain a foothold, I will send someone to contact you. Xiao Chen also slowed down his tone.
"Well, the chief helmsman also said the same, you are now a big tree, and our brothers in Fengyang City are very few, it is indeed not easy to save you out...... Hall Master Xiao, I heard that you raised a lot of silver, which is worth a million taels, and you also sent people to Burma to buy a large amount of grain? Fu Yan changed his words again.
"In addition, I also heard that you are withdrawing cash from the major ticket numbers, and even sent people to several major ticket numbers on the right side of the mountain to discuss this matter, and they have raised a large amount of cash silver for you and are being shipped to the northern Xinjiang...... "Fu Yan, where do you guess you got this information?"
"There is indeed such a thing, since it is a war to send troops, it is natural to have sufficient military salaries, food and grass, otherwise it will really be sent to death! The soldiers must be paid in cash, and they don't recognize any silver tickets. Xiao Chenjian's eyebrows raised slightly, but he still answered truthfully.
"Isn't it for nothing to bring so much silver to Northern Xinjiang? It's a pity, now that our Tianxuan Society is about to start an incident, we lack a lot of funds and silver, especially the food reserves are greatly insufficient, so the chief helmsman means that he wants to ask Hall Master Xiao to focus on major matters and use these silver as our military expenses. ”
Fu Yan probably knew that this was a bit excessive, so when he said these words, his eyes were quite erratic, and he didn't dare to look directly into Xiao Chen's eyes.
Xiao Chen looked incredulous, Master, I am in a difficult situation, you Tianxuan will not know, but you have been ignoring it.
Duan Ling'er saw that I was worried before, and quietly went to you to borrow money, but she only asked you to borrow 20,000 taels of silver, and you said no!
The little girl was disgraced and depressed for several days.
