Chapter 161: Kusunoki Zhengcheng's ruthlessness
Jiyang, in order to celebrate the next city, the general of the East Island Country, Nanmu Zhengcheng, directly set up a banquet in the city lord's mansion, and invited the high-level officials of the Three Kingdoms Alliance to listen to the piano and drink, enjoy the moon and watch the wind.
At the banquet, I have always had doubts, not understanding that I and others obviously have 300,000 male soldiers, and they can completely fight the general of Baekje in Wu County, Fuyu Zhang. Tasting the wine of Jiangnan, it was like chewing wax, and after hesitating for a long time, he finally couldn't help but open his mouth and asked questions to Nanmu Zhengcheng on the side.
In this regard, Nanmu Zhengcheng stared at Fuyu Zhang for a moment, and then waved his hand directly, signaling to let those dancing girls go down, only the high-level of the Three Kingdoms Alliance Army remained, and then he chuckled and said: "General Fuyu, I believe that your doubts are also the doubts of many of you here.
Indeed, we have 300,000 soldiers, and we can completely fight in Wu County. As long as Wu County's bones are gnawed off, such a small city under its jurisdiction will naturally be easier. But General Buyeo, have you ever thought about it? What is the most important thing for our coalition forces right now?"
The most important thing?
This......
Fuyu Zhang couldn't help frowning when he heard this.
Seeing this, Nanmu Zhengcheng didn't sell Guanzi, and directly chuckled: "It's no wonder that General Buyeo couldn't react for a while, after all, General Buyeo's previous opponents were mostly land neighbors such as Silla and Xiongnu, as well as naval battles at sea. So there is no experience in this area. ”
Fuyu Zhang's face instantly darkened when he heard this, so just like Nanmu Zhengcheng said, he really had no experience in this area. In fact, it is said that he is mani, and among the Three Kingdoms Alliance, there may be only people from the Eastern Island Country who have experience in this area.
As an island nation in an earthquake-prone area, the eastern island country has an unimaginable desire for land on land, so it ...... Ahem, the famous generals of the East Island Country, led by Kusunoki Masanari, have harassed those land neighbors.
And because of the heyday of the Great Zhou, Silla and Baekje ...... It's the focus of harassment!
For example, Kusunoki Masung, his most outstanding record is that he almost won a fertile coastal area of Silla.
At that time, if it weren't for the lack of support from the Dongdao countries, and the famous general of the Silla country, Lee Do-chuan, fought to the death, I am afraid that the land where Baekje and Silla are located would now be a situation where the four countries are fighting.
It seemed that he sensed that his words just now were easy to provoke the evil feelings of other countries, so Nanmu Masanari quickly ended the topic and continued: "The most important thing to cross the ocean and land in other countries to fight is not how much to take, but how much to save.
To put it more simply, we are actually like a lone army now. There were no supplies from the rear, no reinforcements.
Supplies are good to say, Da Zhou is rich, especially in the southeast, even if it suffers from floods, the rich households and treasury in this city are enough for us to consume. Therefore, we can fully enrich our logistics by fighting for war.
However, the soldiers under our command are different, and for each one missing, our combat effectiveness is reduced by one point. Therefore, at this time, we must be cautious in the use of troops, and strive to achieve the greatest results at the lowest cost. ”
"General Nanmu's words made people pause," Fu Yuzhang's eyes flickered for a moment, and then said, "But ...... Why before, General Kusunoki ......"
"It's better to change than to plan," although Buyeo Zhang did not continue to speak, Nanmu Masanari still understood the meaning of the other party's words, so he said bluntly: "General Buyeo is also a veteran of the battlefield, this truth...... General Buyeo should know better than I do. ”
It is true that the plan is not as good as the change.
In fact, the purpose of the Eastern Island Country's previous troops was very simple, that is, to teach the Great Zhou State a lesson, plunder the southeast coast, and enrich the treasury. At the same time, the most important thing is to give an explanation to the people and the powerful courtiers in the country, as well as to demonstrate to the outside world, saying that although our country is small, it is not capable of being bullied.
However, when it was discovered that Silla and Baekje also wanted to join in and get a piece of the pie, and the Southeastern Hwangtian Sect was in turmoil again, the remnants of the former dynasty wanted to muddy the waters. A simple plundering of the ports and border cities on the southeast coast is no longer enough for them.
At this time, Nanmu Zhengcheng's purpose had already turned to the more affluent Guangling and Wujun and other important cities in the southeast.
That's right, in fact, at this time, Nanmu Zhengcheng's purpose is actually to grab things, resources, and money. It's just that the target has changed from being in a bowl to being in a pot.
And just after he led an army of 300,000 to cross the Yangtze River and received a report from the Eastern Island Country that had buried some nails in the Great Zhou, his goal changed again.
Because the news that their nails came to report was that the Great Zhou court sent them to clear their left and right guards, but for some reason, after arriving in Shouchun, they did not make any moves, but were stationed.
In the face of this information, although Nanmu Zhengcheng still couldn't guess the reason, as a fierce general on the battlefield, he was keenly aware of something from it.
Therefore, his goal has become to preserve his strength without provoking the nerves of the Great Circumferential as much as possible, and then wait for the opportunity to act!
Of course, the reason for this, Kusunoki Masari obviously didn't want to share it with others, so he didn't express it.
On the other hand, although Buyeo Zhang's explanation of Kusunoki is still incomprehensible. However, it is also beneficial to Baekje itself to preserve its strength as much as possible, so instead of dwelling on it, he continued, "Then I wonder how General Nanmu plans to win the greatest result at the lowest cost?"
"Didn't General Buyeo see it all?" said Kusunoki Masari with a smile.
See?
Fu Yuzhang frowned and pondered for a moment, and then said with some uncertainty: "Could it be that it is to take a small city like Jiyang and drive these Great Zhou people to Wu County." ”
"General Buyeo really deserves to be a veteran on the battlefield," Kusunoki Masari praised: "It's really in one sentence." ”
Saying that, Nanmu Zhengcheng didn't wait for Fuyu Zhang to ask something, so he directly motioned to a high-ranking member of the Dongdao Country with a terrifying pale face and a long hair and white robe on the table to stand up, and then began to introduce: "Let me introduce General Buyeo, this is Taro Ishii, who studied under Master Nagata Tokumoto, and is a master of my Dongdao Country's use of drugs, and is especially good at epidemic poisons!"
Pestilence...... Poison!
As if he had heard something terrible, as soon as Kusunoki Masari's voice fell, all the high-ranking officials of Silla and Baekje who were being introduced, around Taro Ishii, unconsciously shrank to the side, trying to keep themselves as far away from this person as possible.
At the same time, they also understood why this person named Taro Ishii was obviously from Higashijima, but there were no Higashijima people around.
No wonder they are like this, Su Wen Thorn Law said: The five plagues are easy to infect each other, regardless of the size, and the symptoms are similar.
To put it bluntly, this epidemic virus is a highly contagious disease that can cause epidemics. The most common is the plague that follows the catastrophic plague, that is, the plague.
Poison itself is a formidable thing in this day and age, and the plague is like a flood of beasts. Now I heard that there is such a person around me who is good at this, not to mention these people under Baekje and Xinluo Kingdom, even Buyeo Zhang is actually a little trembling.
However, in addition, Fuyu Zhang is more concerned about another point, that is, why at this time, Nanmu Zhengcheng specially introduced such a person.
Could it be ...... Among those people......
"Just as General Buyeo thought," Nanmu Masacheng saw that Buyeo Zhang seemed to have vaguely guessed what to do, so he would no longer sell anything, and said bluntly: "Among the people who were driven away, many of them were planted with the poison of Taro Ishii, so they ...... General Buyeo, in a few days, you and I will have a good show......"
