Chapter 66: Blitzkrieg
Receiving the news that Dongfang took the initiative to attack, Zhang Hao was directly stunned, and countless information rolled in his mind in an instant.
Stepfather Wu Fanghai said: The eastern countries have never taken the initiative to attack, never. But this time, the eastern countries actually took the initiative to attack, and it was directly "millions of elites".
Zhang Hao will not doubt Wu Fanghai's words, that can only explain one point: the two countries in the East have changed their combat methods!
Or do the two countries of the East think that it is time to harvest?
Zhang Hao was taken aback by his own idea, but if this is really the case, then the situation will be really serious.
His father and second uncle were in retreat, and Zhang Hao could only go to the City Lord's Mansion in person. Of course, before leaving, Zhang Hao instructed Huang Mingshan and others to conduct experiments with quicklime water and try to determine the proportion of air volume reduction after combustion.
The more tense the situation, the more impossible it is for scientific experiments to be delayed.
Zhang Hao rode his horse and galloped, and in about three quarters, he rushed to the county seat.
After entering the city gate, Zhang Hao hesitated, should he go to the City Lord's Mansion first, or go to the guild first?
After thinking about it, Zhang Hao gritted his teeth and went straight to the guild.
Along the way, Zhang Hao found that everyone looked at him and seemed to be ...... Very gossipy?
Well, Zhang Hao didn't have time to think about this, and went straight to the guild.
When I arrived at the guild, I saw that everyone was gathering together, and the noise was endless. Obviously, the news has spread, and everyone is quite nervous.
Before Zhang Hao could speak, someone called Zhang Hao, saying that the vice chairman and the four ministers were already waiting.
Although Zhang Hao was only a deacon of the guild, no one ignored him. Zhang Shengde was not there, and Zhang Hao faintly became Zhang Shengde's representative.
When I entered the room, I saw that Vice Chairman Zhou Bo, Liang Siguang of the Administration Department, Gongsun Yunlong of the Organization Department, Bai Yunxian of the Marketing Department, and Feng Tai of the Patent Department had already arrived.
It's just Zhang Shengde.
Everyone warmly beckoned Zhang Hao to sit down, and sat next to Zhou Bo.
Zhang Hao sat down, and Zhou Bo spoke directly: "Virtuous nephew, how is the situation at home?"
"Thank you Uncle Zhou for your concern, it is fine, and it is expected to recover in three to five days. ”
"That's good, then, do you know about the situation of the two countries in the east taking the initiative to attack?"
"The little nephew just received a communication from the City Lord's Mansion, so he rushed over non-stop. I will ask my uncle and uncles to inform me of the specific situation. ”
Zhou Bo sighed: "The situation is not optimistic. The two eastern countries are known as the million-strong army, and all of them are above the foundation period.
The million-strong army all flew with magic weapons, and the march in a day was as little as three or five hundred miles, and as many as thousands of miles, and the country of Jinyang could not stop it at all.
Now, the other party went straight to 'Anqing', the imperial capital of Jinyang. The Land of Jinyang...... It's a lot of danger!"
Blitzkrieg! The word instantly appeared in Zhang Hao's mind.
Zhang Hao didn't answer immediately, he thought for a moment before saying, "Aren't some of our elites in the Eastern Kingdoms already arriving in the country of Jinyang?
"We don't know about this, we don't know about military affairs, so we don't talk about military affairs. What we're going to discuss now is, how should our Xuantie Guild behave in this war?"
Zhang Hao suddenly understood: everyone understands the truth of cold lips and teeth, but they have their own little Jiujiu. However, Zhang Hao did not directly say the answer, but asked everyone what they thought.
Zhou Bo said: The association should dedicate and donate to the country.
But Bai Yunxian said: This may be a bottomless pit, what if we are dragged down in the end?
Liang Siguang immediately agreed: It's okay to donate a little, but we also have a large family to support, and it is impossible to donate for a long time.
Feng Tai, who took office as a new official, said coolly: The technology must be kept secret.
In the end, Gongsun Yunlong sighed leisurely: I also have feelings of worrying about the country and the people, and I am also willing to donate. But giving is not a long-term solution, we need a long-term plan, which is healthy development.
After everyone finished speaking, Zhang Hao finally spoke: "I have a suggestion, how about we owe Xuantie to the state on credit? The credit standard can refer to a 'credit clause' formulated by the Zhang family before, and we can extend the repayment time."
In addition, we accept repayment from the state in kind, or tax compensation. ”
As soon as Zhang Hao's proposal came out, everyone's eyes suddenly brightened. Although the details are not yet available, the general direction has been determined, and Zhang Hao finally got up and headed to the City Lord's Mansion.
In the city lord's mansion, the atmosphere was tense, and all the soldiers were fully armed. Zhang Hao waited in front of the City Lord's Mansion for almost ten minutes before he was allowed to enter.
When Zhang Hao saw the city lord, Liu Jingming looked anxious, and when he saw Zhang Hao, his tone was not good, "You'd better bring me good news." Otherwise, leave now, I don't have time to play with your little child. ”
Child?
Zhang Hao has a black line, okay, I understand your current mood, and I don't care about you in general. Zhang Hao immediately said the decision of the Xuantie Guild.
Liu Jingming suddenly stopped his pace of turning in circles, and his figure came to Zhang Hao in a trance, looking directly into Zhang Hao's eyes: "What you said is true?
Zhang Hao looked at Liu Jingming's eyes and said, "Under the condition of ensuring the normal operation of the Xuantie Guild, 200 tons of Xuantie can be extracted every day. The quality can only be guaranteed more than 60% for the time being.
As for the terms of credit, etc., it is necessary for the city lord to send someone to discuss it with the Xuantie Guild. ”
"Okay, okay, okay, I'll go personally. Liu Jingming was about to leave in a hurry.
Seeing this, Zhang Hao couldn't help but ask, "City Lord, is the situation critical now?"
"Critical...... No, no, no, it's not critical at all, don't I care about the situation of the country~~~"
Zhang Hao stood at the door, looking at Liu Jingming without speaking.
Liu Jingming gradually stabilized and sighed: "I received new information just now, there are a total of 300,000 elites in the two eastern countries, known as one million elites, all of whom are in the foundation building period.
Lan Jianwu, the general of the Shangzhu State of the Taihua Country, and Sima Tao, the general of the Shangzhu State of the Canglan Country, personally led the troops. Both of them are masters of the late Yuan Infant period.
Oh, the position of the general of the Shangzhu State is equivalent to our hussar general.
300,000 soldiers who are at least in the foundation building period, the unprepared Jinyang Kingdom can't stop it at all!
Now the army is less than a thousand miles away from Anqing, the imperial capital of the country of Jinyang, according to the previous speed of marching, at most two days, no more than three days, and the army can come to the city!
And once the country of Jinyang falls, the six eastern countries will be a plate of scattered sand!
On top of that, we simply don't have time to support it right now!"
Zhang Hao frowned, the situation was unexpectedly severe.
At the heart of blitzkrieg is to deprive the enemy of a chance to react. However, Blitzkrieg also has a blitzkrieg weakness: logistics!
Regardless of his modesty, Zhang Hao said directly: "City Lord, I have a suggestion. The priority of the moment is to trade time at any cost.
In my opinion, the Kingdom of Jinyang should now abandon the imperial capital and make the imperial capital a cage to drag the enemy here.
We will send a large army to block the enemy's rear.
In the end, mobilize the people of the country of Jinyang, launch local advantages, and use crowd tactics to trap the opponent's elite to death with us.
This time, although the two countries in the East took us by surprise, they also exposed their weaknesses in front of us.
This is an opportunity!
If we make good use of it, our Eastern Crusade may be able to achieve unprecedented brilliant results!"
