Chapter 371: Difficulty Increases

Yan Saburo let out a "hmm", not knowing what he meant by mentioning this matter.

When Qu Yunhe saw his expression, he knew that he couldn't understand: "Do you know what strategic depth is?" In his mind, how much military knowledge can a thirteen-year-old boy in the civilian population know?

Unexpectedly, Yan Saburo replied: "That is, it can make tactical adjustments and provide space for strategic buffers." ”

Qu Yunhe was stunned: "Lord Chitose is really attentive to you." ”

Chitose's voice came from the bookcase, "Isn't that?"

Yan Saburo was silent.

In fact, it doesn't matter to Chitose, he has read too many miscellaneous books, and even Rong Sheng's explanation of ancient wars is occasionally mentioned, and he has asked the master in detail.

"If you know the depth of strategy, you should know how remarkable it is for a large army to fight across hundreds of miles at every turn. Qu Yunhe himself has led soldiers and fought battles, and he knows the stakes well, "There is a way that the soldiers and horses have not moved, and the grain and grass go first." Not to mention that it is a 300-mile journey to fight, and the amount of grain and grass to be consumed is an astonishing figure. ”

How can grain and grass be transported? Logistics personnel must not be used. When the grain eaten by people and the grass eaten by horses are transported from the rear to the front line, the logistics team itself will eat more than half of it, not to mention natural disasters in the middle, ambushes by the enemy, and so on.

The transportation and dispatch capabilities of logistics have to a great extent restricted the mobility of a contingent.

The longer the battle line drags on, the more difficult it becomes.

"After Xiaoguo, few countries have been able to fight so long distances. ”

This sentence caught Yan Saburo's attention: "Why?"

"The kingdom of Xiao drove the captives on the march, both as slaves and as rations. Qu Yunhe exhaled, "In this way, they will save a lot of grain transportation." ”

If a fourth person is following, be sure to listen to it in a creepy way. But Qu Yunhe didn't see a trace of anything strange on the young man's face at all.

Yan Saburo asked him, "You said 'once upon a time', this country is no longer there, right?"

"It's long gone. Qu Yunhe shrugged, "It disappeared long before Yasukuni." ”

The young man's eyes flashed slightly: "It seems that even if it fights like this, it can't save itself." ”

How can the reason for the demise of a country be so simple? Qu Yunhe opened his mouth to refute it, but suddenly found that he didn't know where to start.

Chitose's voice sounded, with a snicker: "Speechless, right?" Someone should also understand the pain she faced in the face of Yan Saburo for a while.

“...... Be. ”

¥¥¥¥¥

The old palace of Yasukuni is in the southwest.

The more Yan Saburo and Qu Yunhe walked there, the more shocking they saw along the way.

In the past, the civil strife in Liang was also a hardship for the people, but his route from Yicheng to Yuncheng was not affected by the war, and what he saw was still the scene of people living and working in peace and contentment.

But it was only here that he really understood what war was.

After the fall of Yasukuni, the territory was divided into five small countries, and after many years of development, annexation, and overthrowing, the former territory of Yasukuni was divided by the Weiguo in the west, the Youguo in the south, and the tundra tribe in the east.

The defense of the country was very early, and it coexisted with Yasukuni for a long time. After the demise of the latter, it took the opportunity to annex the land of its old neighbors, and it took 20 years before and after finally destroying several small forces and gaining a firm foothold in the western part of Yasukuni.

But it is not yet satisfied, and is now expanding to the east and south.

The war between the Chinese and the Guardians has been going on for two years. Wherever the smoke of gunpowder passed, the mountains and rivers were eroded, and the people were displaced. The Zheng couple who Yan Saburo rescued in Qingyan Village before fled north because Meicheng, where they lived, suffered a military accident.

Soon after, Yan Saburo also passed through Meicheng and saw the city after the Great War.

Meicheng was originally owned by Youguo, but refused to surrender in the face of invasion, so it was bloodbathed after the city was broken. Day and night, the mass graves outside the city are lively, but the city is full of hunger.

The further southwest you go, the more often this happens, especially if you go there. Yan Saburo and Qu Yunhe also became more and more cautious in their travels, deliberately avoiding the armies on both sides. In such troubled times, even if a foreign soldier collides with the army head-on, he will suffer a great loss.

After Qingyan Village, they shot at least three more times. Thanks to Yan Saburo and Qu Yunhe, this person is tall and strong, and he doesn't look easy to mess with, otherwise a young man will take a white cat on the road alone, and he will encounter at least twice as much trouble.

But after walking for so long, the two of them at least figured out one thing:

King Jing's palace is not easy to enter.

Although Yasukuni is no longer there, its capital is quite rich and well preserved during the war. After Wei Guo occupied the hometown of Yasukuni, he also fell in love with here, and moved the capital here despite the public opinion, and King Wei ordered the old palace of Yasukuni to be repaired, renamed Tianyao Palace, and moved there in a grand manner!

When Yan Saburo heard the news, he immediately gasped: "Are you still going?"

It turned out that what was waiting for them was not a ruined capital, but a heavily guarded royal city! No wonder Mu Bell divided the task into two parts, and it seemed that the difficulty was behind them.

Qu Yunhe did not hesitate:

"Go. ”

Mo said that King Jing's palace was only taken by King Wei as his own, even if it became a mountain of swords and a sea of fire, he was unswerving.

Now Chitose doesn't have a good face: "Isn't it okay to stand outside the palace and hang from afar?"

Qu Yunhe did not squeak and expressed his negation with silence.

Chitose was helpless: "Then let's go." "In the end, we have to let this guy return with his wish, otherwise the task of the wooden bell will not be completed.

Why can't she be so willful, really!

At this time, the two of them climbed up the slope with a cat, and Yan Saburo pointed to the pass in front of him: "After going over the mountain and going forward, you are about to enter the boundary of the patriotic territory." After a pause, "Ten miles to the south, it is said that it is the front line of the battle between the two armies." ”

In front of it is the city of Suoluo, which was originally the territory of the country, and was only recently defeated by the country. When you get here, you are not far from the front line where the two countries are fighting.

Yan Saburo traveled thousands of miles, and when he walked here, he also subconsciously took a light breath. The most terrible man-made disaster in the world is less than ten miles away from them.

Qu Yunhe immediately said: "If you want to come to the border of the country, it is not so easy to enter, and we have to use some means." ”

"Means?"

"It's too close to the front line, and it's very strict to come to the border. Qu Yunhe had experience in marching and fighting, so he explained to him at this time, "Even if we can cross the border, the guards must be three steps and one post, five steps and one sentry on their own territory, and they will be strictly investigated." If we go in empty-handed like this, I'm afraid we'll ......."

I'm afraid that it won't be long before it will be used as a fine containment. Yan Saburo understood: "Do you want to get a certificate?" Indeed, on the front line and rear of the battle between the two armies, there are countless detailed spying on military information, and they have to be investigated and guarded against.

Chitose is not the same thing: "What's so difficult about that? This is the only way to enter the city, see who is not pleasing to the eye, and if you are stunned, you can grab the voucher." ”

"It's not just about stunning. Qu Yunhe nodded, "You must extinguish your mouth to avoid future troubles." ”
