Chapter 423: The Situation of the Heavenly Trial

"This..."

Xia Xun is too direct.

Dushao was stunned again, he thought that coming to meet tonight would inevitably be full of twists and turns. Not to mention, let's just say that the elders of many people behind him have grudges with Xia Yuan, and Xia Xun has a feud with their forces in the deserted village on Chinese New Year's Eve. In the face of these grievances and grievances, no matter how generous Xia Xun is, how can he be cautious and ask about it, isn't it?

However, the opposite is true.

Xia Xun didn't mention these things at all, and he didn't plan to beat around the bush, so he directly asked the visitor to find a place to sit. And Xiahou, who has always liked to look for trouble when he has nothing to do, and he has something to do, is also rarely silent. It's just holding the dog's tail grass high and looking playful. Such an unbelievable situation is something that Dushao has not calculated at all. So much so that he couldn't even get a word out of the words he had prepared when he came.

"Everyone, please feel free. ”

Seeing that Dushao and the others were dumbfounded, Xia Xunhe smiled and hugged his fists again, ignoring it again.

Then he turned around and walked back to the map by the wall, took the whip on the stone pier again, and said with a smile: "You are all famous families, and your knowledge is extraordinary, and the key points of this year's national examination must be clear, so I will not talk about it again." Although the imperial court examination papers will only be announced tomorrow, the location of the heavenly examination is in the beginning of the immortals, and the examination questions will undoubtedly follow the example of the mountains and rivers of 80 years ago. Hundreds of thousands of candidates are playing in the wilderness, and thousands of the fittest are selected to enter the top three, and dozens of people have climbed to the heavenly tower. And we are only 400 here, which is more than enough to enter the top three. And except for me, all of you here are people who can fight well, compared to the eighteen holy blood battles of the year, it can be said that the foundation is more than 100 times richer. Therefore, the trip to the heavenly test seems to be very dangerous, but we can still win the ticket. ”

"Heh..."

"Four hundred enemies and hundreds of thousands of people are still firmly in charge of victory, Xia Xun, you can't help but say a big thing, right?"

As soon as Xia Xun's words paused, a rather contemptuous laugh rang out at the same time. The speaker was none other than Fang Gongzi, who came with Dushao. And Fang Gongzi's contemptuous words suddenly attracted the fierce side eyes of hundreds of northerners, and the dog's tail grass in Xiahou's mouth also stopped shaking and stared at Fang Qingqiu.

Du Shao frowned for a moment, and whispered: "Qingqiu has a lot of mistakes. ”

"Wow..."

Shaking his hand and unfolding the paper fan and shaking it gently, Fang Gongzi ignored Dushao's advice, he seemed to disagree with Dushao's approach tonight from the bottom of his heart. Otherwise, how could they just settle down and be sarcastic?

This is clearly to find fault...

"I'm just telling the truth, I'm waiting for tonight to vote, not with the mentality that I have to be the top three. It is good that the enemy can be in the same boat to keep warm at present, if you want to fight for 100,000 with 100 or 100, it is just looking for death. Forgive us Qingqiu for not being able to accompany you. ”

Fang Gongzi's words were extremely ugly, and Dushao was anxious for him when he heard it: "Don't talk nonsense, this place is not Yueyang..."

"No, no, no... He said it well. ”

Before the admonition was finished, Xia Xun waved his hand and cut off his words.

Even though Fang Gongzi said it ugly, Xia Xun was not angry, he smiled: "I just said, if I don't say it well, you can give advice, the military order on the battlefield is heaven, and everyone expresses their opinions in the battle tent, we are not a word." Fang Gongzi first came, and he didn't know the details. And what Fang Gongzi said is indeed reasonable, hundreds of people fighting hundreds of thousands of people will undoubtedly hit the stone with eggs, and we have only one way to die. So, my strategy is to defend and attack. ”

"Defend as offense?"

"Yes. ”

Xia Xun skillfully eliminated the anger in the topic in a few words, and brought it to the topic without a trace.

Fang Gongzi was suspicious, Xia Xun nodded, and then drew a big circle on the sheepskin map behind him, and said: "According to our news, all the key passes within a radius of more than 20,000 miles of Fangcun Mountain have been blocked by the Tang Dynasty government with heavy troops. Therefore, we can temporarily set the test room to 20,000 li, and the area of 20,000 li can accommodate more than 100,000 candidates, and our biggest advantage lies in this. ”

Saying that, Xia Xun glanced at Mo Xian.

The ink said that he took the first two steps to spread out the picture scroll that had been prepared in advance and posted it next to the parchment map. But I saw that there were no paintings in the picture scroll, but many phrases such as "Tiance Mansion" and "Chang'an City" were written in the dragon and phoenix, and they were summarized into dozens of large pieces.

After the picture scroll was posted, Xia Xun turned the whip in the direction and pointed to the picture scroll and said: "The heavenly test is different from the palace test, which focuses more on strategy and tactics, and it is difficult for individual soldiers to make a difference. Therefore, when the detailed rules of the exam questions are announced, most candidates will be able to see the situation clearly in a very short time, so as to attach or gather into a joint force. The area of 20,000 miles to accommodate more than 100,000 candidates is still vast, and tens of thousands of candidates gather together to form a hundred and ten forces, and the distance between them is at least 100 miles, and it takes more than half a quarter to gallop. And what we have to do is first of all to survive this 100-mile gap. ”

"Duh..."

The whip tapped a few phrases on the picture scroll, and continued: "The crown prince Li Jiancheng, the second prince Li Yuanba, the civil and military complements each other and holds the imperial road to all the imperial court forces such as Tiance, Huben, Cangyun, Hanlin, etc., and it is initially estimated that even if they exclude those who return to vassals after the examination, they can at least sit on eight thousand elites, take the lead, and they are the biggest roadblock tigers at the moment. At this point, Xia Xun's words changed suddenly, and he looked at Du Shao in a blink of an eye, and then said with a faint smile: "But no matter how fierce the tiger is, there are times when it takes a nap, although the Kyoto royal family seems to be invincible, but there are three fatal flaws that cannot be avoided, as long as we grasp any point, it is enough to control it from a catastrophe." After going to the army to fight, the only young man with extraordinary computing power and a famous family, he must have calculated which three fatal flaws they were, right?"

"Oh?"

Du Shaoben listened attentively, and never thought that Xia Xun would throw the problem on himself when he suddenly changed his words.

There was a slight difference, but Dushao immediately understood Xia Xun's intentions.

Xia Xun asked such a question, in fact, he was exploring his bottom, and at the same time, he was also invisibly giving him a right to speak. When he first arrived, there were dozens of people, and he would not be excluded in the future. At this time, if he fails to answer or answers incorrectly, he will naturally be looked down upon. On the other hand, if he can answer well or answer well, he will undoubtedly be valued. The so-called soldiers and plots, planning before they happen, and being able to control the right to speak, the dozens of brothers who came with him will not be reduced to other people's swords and guns. It can be seen that Xia Xun's words can be described as well-intentioned.

Thinking of this, Du Shao did not shirk it, hugged his fists and padded gratefully: "I have indeed thought about it, if it is not enough, I hope to find less and more advice." ”

Xia Xun stretched out his hand: "Please." ”

Dushao casually put the delicate abacus hidden in his sleeve in the palm of his hand, and said step by step: "I thought that the shortcomings of the Kyoto Imperial Family were as obvious as their advantages. One of them is the lack of people, and now the Tang Beacon is hidden at the end of Qingping, and the situation in the north and south is shaky. Li Jiancheng, as the crown prince of the royal family, recently humiliated the drunken immortal building before he succeeded, and his trip to the heavenly test will surely sweep all directions with an overturning wrist to prove the prestige of the royal family. But with an army of ten thousand, an enemy ten times larger than oneself is erected, and his people are the first to be defeated. ”

"Second, when there is a shortage of days, there are 130,000 candidates for the day test, and only one scoop is finally taken into the top three, which is less than 2,000. In the hands of Li Jiancheng, there are nearly 10,000 rising stars in the imperial court alone, among which those who defected after the entrance examination have not been counted. If all the candidates under his command are added up, there are probably more than 10,000 candidates, and more than 10,000 people compete for 2,000 seats, and they will lose 8,000 without a fight, and they will have been completely defeated. ”

Du Shao eased his voice, and at the same time took two steps forward to the sheepskin map on Xia Xun's side, pointed to the mountains and jungles on the map and continued: "Third, there is a lack of geographical advantages, the Fangcun Mountains are tens of thousands of miles in radius, there are high mountains and dense forests, few grasses and plains, and most of them are the first choice for soldiers to hide swords. The military strength of the Kyoto Imperial Family is very strong, like a brute ox crawling on thorns, they are still troublesome to set up camp, and it takes a lot of trouble to hide and lurk, and if the war situation is urgent and the whole army needs to wave the army, even if the best cavalry helps it, it is also difficult. In addition to encirclement and suppression, division of troops, and entrenchment, it is difficult for them to use more tactics, and their geography has been defeated. After saying that, Dushao turned slightly sideways to face everyone, raised his long sleeves and said proudly: "Go to the army and strategize, and look at the overall situation." Before the war started, the royal family of Kyoto was defeated, the time was defeated, the location was defeated, and one defeat after another, and Aneng still had the reason to be undefeated? On the other hand, we waited for us, no more than no less, no more than 400 elites, and they could quickly thunder and attack the Quartet. After that, you can escape in the mountains and invisible jungles. The right time, place, and people are all ready, and Anneng is invincible?"

"Good. ”

"Bang Bang..."

The language rides the wind, and it is far away.

Before the war started, the only few words almost circled all the dead holes of a seemingly invincible behemoth, so that a battlefield that had not yet begun was directly classified as victory and defeat. Everyone in the audience secretly pondered, Xia Xun first applauded and praised: "Dushao's computing power is really extraordinary, and a few words can make victory or defeat a foregone conclusion, Xia admires." ”

Du Shao was quite embarrassed, and said humbly: "Looking for less and praising it, what I said has already been planned to find Shao, I am just icing on the cake, or I will repeat it on my behalf." ”

"No, no, no, I'm sure I'm not as good as you. ”

Xia Xun waved his hand and flattered, and at the same time glanced at everyone in the field, and finally he stayed on Fang Gongzi's face, and asked with a meaningful smile: "I don't know if I can convince Fang Gongzi?" Do you still think that hundreds of enemies and 100,000 are just hitting stones with eggs?"

“......”

Xia Xun's insinuation was extremely clever.

Invisibly, he gave Dushao a favor, and he also used Dushao's mouth to seal Fang Gongzi's back road. Fang Gongzi looked a little embarrassed, although he was not convinced, he didn't dare to say more. Closed the paper fan with both hands and clenched his fists, and said angrily: "Fang Mou never thought of this layer, which made you laugh." ”

Xia Xun knows people's hearts well, and after a little suppression, he smiled.

He looked at Dushao again in a blink of an eye, and continued to say lightly: "Since Dushao has already been counted as the three deficiencies of the royal family, he must have a strategy to defend against the enemy in his heart, right?"

Dushao is very measured, knowing that Xia Xun was giving himself a favor before, but now if he says more, he will be suspected of kicking his nose in the face. He waved his hand and said modestly: "Du Mou is accustomed to arithmetic, the calculator is less resourceful, good at defending and not good at attacking, and there is no room for mistakes in the heavens and the earth, and Du Mou really doesn't dare to boast anymore." ”

Xia Xun directly raised his hand and handed the whip in his hand to Dushao: "But it doesn't hurt to say it." ”

"Uh..."

This was a bit of a surprise.

Du Shao took a deep look at the clear gaze cast by Xia Xun, but saw that there was no deep meaning.

After pondering for a moment, Dushao knew that he had a lot of heart. He took the whip handed over by Xia Xun with both hands, and then put his hands in his fists and padded to everyone: "Du's talent is shallow, if you don't say it well, please bear with me." ”

After that, Dushao pointed to the map with a whip sideways, and continued: "The royal family is powerful, although the time and place are favorable, but there is still the ability to overwhelm the heroes. We are weak and have a deep grudge against them, and the opening of the Heavenly Test will be the first to be their target. If we play with it, we need to avoid its edge, accumulate thick and thin, and hit its laziness to be undefeated. As he spoke, the only major general moved the whip down, pointed to the location of a hill at the southwest end of the map, and then said: "Yumu Village, the radius is only more than two miles, the cliffs on three sides are steep and the only path can be passed, the north is close to the river to solve the worries of water sources and food, the east and west are close to the ancient tower mountain range, and the top can be seen within a radius of dozens of miles, which can be described as a dangerous place for soldiers." If the royal family dares to attack, they will not be able to jump up the mountain unless they are in the Qitian Realm, so they can only divide their troops and slowly pass through the path. As long as we set up traps along the trail in advance, and prepare rolling stone bows and crossbows on the cliffs, we can gain the courage of a man who is invincible when the enemy attacks. To overcome the danger with strong troops, the royal family will have to pay at least ten times our troops to have a possible breakthrough. We only need to hold on for more than ten days, and most of the crown prince's efforts will choose to retreat without success, and our goal will be achieved. If the crown prince is greedy for profit, and he really dares to attack regardless of life and death, if we are defeated, we can escape from the river, and the water is turbulent and travels thousands of miles a day, and it is difficult for them to have the strength to take advantage of the victory and pursue. In this way, the royal family lost nearly half of its troops, but we can be intact, and we will not be afraid to fight again in the future. ”

The sound is like flowing water, incisive.
