Chapter 453: Sending Troops
But when it comes to the development of concrete actions, there are very different voices. ===23x=
On the one hand, it means that the army should be fought immediately, and after suffering such a big loss, from top to bottom, there is a thought of revenge, and the mourning army will win, which is a good time to send troops.
On the other hand, they think that the timing of sending troops is not ideal, after all, the Yelan King holds the other five iron walls of the Seven Stars, which are deeply rooted and difficult to shake in eagerness, so it is better to send a corresponding team to retaliate with surprise attacks, harassment and assassination.
Although the second prince is in a hurry, after all, he has been running one side for many years, and he has also commanded the army for many years, so he has his own opinions.
Both sides have a point, but there can only be one decision.
You must know that the last buyer to pay for the decision is the second prince himself! If he wins, he will naturally get the land in his pocket, but if he loses, he is likely to lose a qiē.
When he was hesitant, the second prince saw Qin Ning thinking about things there, so he asked, "Military advisor, why don't you speak for such a big military decision?"
As soon as these words came out, the Chinese army tent was suddenly silent. Because Qin Ning's previous expressions were enough to make these people awe-inspired.
Qin Ning was indeed thinking about things, but it was not something that was being discussed right now.
As soon as Xirong broke like this, the second prince and King Yelan had reached the point of not dying.
When the snipe and the clam compete, the fisherman will naturally benefit.
But what is needed to make it happen?
Before he could figure it out, the second prince threw the question over, and all the generals in the camp looked at him with an earnest face.
Qin Ning smiled faintly and said, "Your Highness, I think what everyone said makes sense. ”
This sentence. Not only the second prince, but all the generals in the camp were choked. I am looking forward to Qin Ning having a good Jianyì. I didn't expect to say that.
Qin Ning smiled wryly and said, "The final decision was made." It can only be the second prince, I have a few questions here, as long as the second prince understands it, he will make a corresponding decision. ”
Qin Ning knew that fighting a war was not a joke, and the second prince couldn't wait to tear up Yelan Wang Sheng in his heart, but he was afraid of his own vested interests, and he would still swallow this breath if he didn't do it.
After all, the strength of the Yelan King is there. If you can't strengthen the belief that the second prince will finish his work in one battle. Even if you send troops, you will give up halfway.
Now, it is best to make the second prince want to stop sending troops.
There weren't many things that Qin Ning asked the second prince to consider, just a few.
First, after this thrilling attack where life and death hung by a thread, does the second prince think that he can still be at peace with King Yelan? Or can King Yelan give up the blow because the second prince escaped from ascension to heaven this time?
Second, look at the shape of the present and stick to yourself. There is no problem for the time being, but what about in the long run? Just guarding these two places in Lingtu City, whether it is people or things, they are far inferior to the Night Lan King. In other words, in terms of the number of troops and the abundance of materials, does the second prince feel that he can rebel over time?
Third, and most importantly, this is the point. That is, once the second prince shows weakness, what will King Yelan think? Will he feel that the second prince is weak and can be bullied? What will the soldiers under the second prince think? Do they feel that their leaders are too indecisive?
These three questions are like a hammer. knocked on the heart of the second prince.
The second prince's face was cloudy, and he finally slapped the table hard and stood up: "The heart of King Yelan's death is known to everyone. Even if I consider the people of Li and the soldiers under my command, I will not be immune to the doom of annexation. I have made up my mind, this prince and the king of Yelan will not share the sun and the moon, that is, the soldiers of the day, and conquer the king of Yelan!"
"Your Highness, can you think about it again? After all, the conquest of King Yelan is not a trivial matter. Moreover, with the strength of Lingtu City, the minimum number of troops left to defend the city is only 50,000 people. ”
Among the generals, there are many old and serious ones, and they say the most troublesome part of the matter.
The second prince hesitated slightly, and his face immediately showed a fanatical expression again.
"This prince and the king of Yelan will have a battle sooner or later. The military advisor is right, the longer it drags on, the more troops the Yelan King can mobilize, and the more material reserves there will be. Rather than waiting for nothing to end up like this, it is better to fight to the death. I believe that with the lives of the soldiers and the geniuses of the military divisions, they will definitely succeed. The eldest husband should sweep the world with iron and blood, should he be in a corner of peace, eat and wait for death?"
As soon as these words came out, no one raised objections.
However, what the general said is also the truth, as far as the troops of Lingtu City are concerned, there must be a basic guard force. If you are ruthless, you can also draw 50,000 people.
Use these forces to conquer the Yelan King, just kidding.
The second prince pondered for a long time and decided to transfer 50,000 people from Wude City, so that 100,000 troops were enough to conquer King Yelan.
In terms of the selection of candidates for the expedition, the second prince was naturally the commander, and Qin Ning went out with the team, and on the basis of the military division, he was appointed as the deputy commander. The generals under their jurisdiction also arrived one by one.
Supplies, troops, must be assembled within a month.
On the marching route, Qin Ningti yì attacked Soul Yun City. Although the terrain of Soul Fortune City is relatively dangerous, in terms of distance, it is the closest place to Lingtu City. In this way, there will be a little more abundant in the supply of logistical materials.
There are still many objections to this proposition.
Opponents argue that it is true that Soul Fortune City is the closest to Lingtu City, but the defense of Soul Fortune City is not ordinarily strong.
First of all, on the periphery of Soul Luck City, close to the side of Lingtu City, there are three lines of defense, Jiuqugou, Panlongling, and Yingchou Crossing.
These three places are all dangerous places, and they all have dangerous terrain that is difficult to open.
Even if you break through these three lines of defense, you have to face a river in Soul Luck City.
Soul Fortune City was built on the basis of a big river, this big river, the front is not seen, the back is not seen, it is impossible to spare this river. In addition, the river is so wide that you can't see the other side from this bank.
The most terrible thing is that countless formations have been arranged under the river, and all kinds of formations are blended together, wielding all kinds of protective capabilities. In this way, an almost unbreakable formation is directly formed, and as long as one of the formations is accidentally touched, the toucher will basically become a delicacy for fish and shrimp in the river.
Even after crossing the river, there are still more than 80,000 well-equipped garrisons in Soul Luck City. After experiencing the arduous and arduous troops of the Second Prince, I don't know if they still have the strength to fight these defending troops who rely on the strong fortifications of Soul Luck City.
When the second prince heard this, he frowned, and his eyes drifted to Qin Ning.
Qin Ning didn't speak for a long time, thought for a long time, and said, "I still have to fight Soul Luck City." Your Highness, ladies and gentlemen, avoid Soul Fortune City, naturally there are not so many dangers for us to fight. But have you ever thought about it, only Soul Luck City is isolated and prominent. If you attack another city, you will be flanked by the neighboring city. We have to face a two-front battle, which is a taboo for soldiers. ”
The second prince nodded and said, "Yes." The other four cities mastered by King Yelan are all relying on each other, attacking one point, there will be reinforcements from adjacent cities immediately, fighting on two fronts, and the attack is dangerous, I think it is still the judgment of the military division, I would rather attack it than fight on two fronts. ”
After formulating the target of the attack, the second prince immediately sent the tanma out, and reported the situation along the way at any time, so as to lay a good front station for the army.
Qin Ning took the initiative to ask Ying to be a pioneer officer.
The second prince hesitated a little and said, "Military advisor, this is a little inappropriate." You are a military advisor and a deputy commander-in-chief, so it is right to stay in the Chinese army, and I have to discuss with you if there is anything. ”
Qin Ning said with a smile: "Your Highness, thanks to your trust and love, Qin Ye dares to do his best? Once the forward battalion is frustrated, it will be a blow to the morale of the entire army, so I am willing to lead the forward battalion and open a path for His Highness. ”
Although Qin Ning's words made the second prince a little moved, the second prince was still reluctant to be Qin Ning's pioneer officer.
Qin Ning's skills have become a legend in Lingtu City, and the second prince has also seen it with his own eyes, so it is best for such a fierce and intelligent person to stay by his side. At the very least, your own safety is absolutely guaranteed. For the sake of his own safety, the second prince wanted Qin Ning to stay by his side, which was of course the best choice for himself.
Qin Ning had no choice but to comfort the second prince, saying that some defensive strongholds on the periphery of Soul Fortune City were very prominent places, and being able to break through smoothly would boost the morale of the army on his side, Qin Ning did not believe in other generals, but felt that he would do better.
Considering the overall situation, the second prince agreed to Qin Ning, allocated 10,000 elite soldiers to Qin Ning, put up the seal, and went out three days in advance.
In Wansongling, Qin Ning had asked Mu Xiongtian to send someone over, and now it was just right to use it.
Qin Ning contacted Namu Xiongtian and asked him to secretly assemble his troops, just behind the second prince's army. But don't be seen, and keep a safe distance.
Anyway, the traces left by the 90,000-strong army can be found even in the past ten days.
Qin Ning asked Mu Xiongtian to prepare, to be prepared for a big battle, a bad battle. As for the specific things, Qin Ning did not explain, because there are many things, and Qin Ning can't say that he dares to pack a ticket and must live according to his expectations.
After five days of marching, Qin Ning's forward battalion had already left the sphere of influence of Lingtu City, and beyond that, it was under the jurisdiction of Soul Fortune City.
Tan Malay reported: "Military division, fifty miles ahead, is Jiuqugou, at present it has been found that there are 6,000 people in Jiuqugou, and fortifications have been built in three dangerous places in Jiuqugou. The specific situation needs to be further investigated. ”
"Well, got it, let's find out. Qin Ning said lightly. Qin Ning sat there and began to ponder. (To be continued!)
