After a short period of politeness, these generals also asked directly to the eldest grandson Nianyuan.

"I just heard from the city lord that His Royal Highness the Third Prince has a good plan to retreat from the enemy, I wonder if His Royal Highness the Third Prince can reveal it to us now?

After all, the current form is already very urgent, if there is any good strategy to retreat from the enemy, then it is naturally better to use it earlier, if the time drags on for a long time, the situation will change dramatically, and then the strategy of His Royal Highness the Third Prince may be a little inappropriate. ”

The general's meaning was actually similar to what she said, but in addition to what he said, he also wanted to hear what Changsun Nianyuan meant and see if his strategy was useful.

After hearing the general's words, Eldest Sun Nianyuan did not hesitate, and spoke directly.

"That's fine, after all, the current situation is indeed very urgent, we should really discuss now, how to deal with it, and the battlefield is changing rapidly, if there is a slight delay, then it will be another situation.

Okay, now let's talk about how to deal with the current situation. First of all, we are in a state of being surrounded, but now that Black Rock City is still intact after all, if you want to lean against the city wall, there is still no big problem.

Moreover, I brought 300,000 soldiers this time, so even if the Southern Tang side forcibly attacked the city, if our side wanted to defend it, we would only need to pay some relatively large costs, and there would be no way to defend it.

But now that the reinforcements have arrived, it is naturally impossible for us to continue to be passively defended, so at this time, we should think about how to go out of the city to attack.

After all, relatively speaking, offense is the best defense, and if you put everything on top of the city, there will be some other problems.

However, after all, there are more soldiers on the Southern Tang side than on our side, so if you attack rashly, not only will you not be able to achieve any good results, but you will also directly give away a lot of soldiers.

Websitem.

But just now I have seen the sand table you arranged, and I can be regarded as knowing the environment of the camp stationed in Nantang, surrounded by mountains on both sides, surrounded by water on one side, and left for the army to enter and exit, it can be regarded as a quite good place, and it can even be said that it is an easy place to defend and difficult to attack.

But it's just such a place, and it also has a lot of hidden dangers, you must know that now except for the climate in the north, the rest of the places are already considered late autumn, so this is the time when the grass and trees are dry, therefore, if anyone directly puts a fire at this time, then I'm afraid the mountains and forests on both sides will burn directly.

And if this is the case, you will naturally form a fire directly, although it is said that he still has a side close to the water source, but if you want to use those water sources to extinguish this fire, I am afraid it will be quite difficult.

And if there is a fire once there is a fire, then there will naturally be a lot of panic in their military camp, and when the time comes, as long as we take advantage of the situation to launch an attack, I am afraid that it will directly have an unexpected effect.

After all, I don't think there is any kind of army in this world, which can still remain unmoved in the face of that kind of fire, right? Therefore, the army on the side of the Southern Tang Dynasty can actually be regarded as a cocoon.

It's just that if you want to cause such a fire, it also requires a lot of preparation, whether it is tung oil, coke, or some other things, it requires a lot of money. I just don't know if our Black Rock City still has a certain reserve for these materials?"

After hearing the words of the eldest grandson Nianyuan, the people present couldn't help but show a sudden look, obviously before this, they really didn't think of this simple method.

Of course, in fact, it's not that they didn't think about this problem, it's just that the army on their side has been passively beaten before, and there is no way to go out of the city to attack back, and even if they go out of the city at that time, not only will they not be able to achieve the effect of returning to attack, but they will also directly trap the remaining troops into it, so naturally there will be no such countermeasures.

But now Changsun Nianyuan has brought reinforcements after all, so there are naturally ways to do some things that there was no way to do before, so at this time, they also know that the method that Changsun Nianyuan said is absolutely feasible.

But although this method is indeed feasible, it also has a limitation, that is, there needs to be enough tung oil and coke and other things, otherwise there is no way to ignite the mountains and forests on both sides, so whether there are these things now has become another question?

It was precisely because they thought of this that they turned their eyes directly to Zhao Zuoxin, after all, he was the existence of the lord of a city, so he should naturally know very well how many supplies there were in the city.

After Zhao Zuoxin felt everyone's gaze, he didn't hesitate to speak.

"If it's coke, it's okay to say, after all, the siege of Nantang has also had a big impact on our Black Rock City, so even if there is no reserve on the City Lord's Mansion, you can find a lot of coke in those damaged houses.

But if you want to talk about tung oil, you don't know the problem, after all, those have basically been used when defending the city before, so if you want to find some more, there is really no way. ”

After hearing Zhao Zuoxin's answer, Eldest Sun Nianyuan's brows couldn't help frowning, because if there was no tung oil, then they really didn't have a very good way to ignite the mountains and forests on both sides.

But it was at this time that one of these generals spoke directly.

"There is still a way for the general, but I don't know if it's appropriate. ”

After hearing the general's words, everyone, including the eldest grandson Nianyuan, became interested, and the eldest grandson Nianyuan asked directly.

"I don't know what the general suggests, but it doesn't matter, if we can, then even if there is some difficulty, we can do it directly, after all, at this moment, everything should make way for war. ”

When the general who opened his mouth heard this, he scratched his head directly, and then pointed to the candle next to him.

"Although we don't have that much tung oil, I want to admit that there are still a lot of oil lamps or candles and other things, so we might as well use these things directly and use coke to light the mountains and forests on both sides.

Although the burning effect of these things is definitely not as good as tung oil, but now the trees in the mountains and forests on both sides have dried up after all, plus the fallen leaves, basically a little spark can ignite a fire, so with these things, there should not be any big problems.

It's just that if you want to get enough candles and other things, then I'm afraid you'll have to reach out to the people in the city, otherwise with the inventory in the city lord's mansion alone, I think it's really difficult to reach enough supply. ”

After hearing the general's answer, Eldest Sun Nianyuan couldn't help but clap his hands, and then said in great surprise.

"Haha, General, you're right, why did I forget this stubble before? If there are enough candles and oil lamps, then it can indeed make up for the lack of tung oil, and then the problem can be directly solved. As for what to tell the people in the city, then you don't have to worry about it, General.

After all, I came here this time and brought enough food, even if we were just one to defend the city, I am afraid it would be enough for the entire Blackstone City to use for thirty years. Therefore, as long as we take out this grain and exchange it with the people, I think we can harvest a lot.

After all, for these people, being able to eat is the most important thing, so even if there is something missing for lighting, then they naturally don't mind too much.

And now that it's wartime, I don't think these people want to move around at night, so I don't think there will be much of an obstacle to these things at this time. ”

When everyone heard that they actually heard that Changsun Nianyuan had so much food, they couldn't help but show an incredible look, because they had seen the scale of Changsun Nianyuan's team before, and they were the kind of veterans who had been on the battlefield for a long time, so they naturally knew that it was impossible for a team of this size to carry too much food.

But they also knew that at this time, Eldest Sun Nianyuan would definitely not joke about this matter, so they couldn't help but be a little puzzled. Eldest Sun Nianyuan looked at the puzzled expressions of their group, and naturally knew what they were thinking at this time, but he didn't care too much, just untied a bag from his waist, then shook it, and said with a smile at them.

"I think you all know very well about the storage bag, right? This one in my hand is the storage bag, which contains the materials captured during the last battle between General Shangguan and Houliang.

You must know that the Shangguan General won a big victory that time, but he directly attacked a huge granary on the side of Houliang, so for things like grain, it is naturally not too much of a problem. ”
