Chapter seventy-six

"Telephone for war?" Zhu Shouen took the war for war from Zhuge Yu and frowned: "Then Jiang Cheng chose to take the initiative to advance at this time. Wouldn't our previous preparation be useless?"

"If it weren't for the previous preparations, Lord Zhu thought Jiang Cheng would be so easy to come out?" Zhuge Yu shook his head and sneered.

"In this way, he already knows your plan?" Chen Li looked at Zhuge Yu in surprise.

"How can such a big thing be hidden here? With his talent, he will definitely understand." Zhuge Yu smiled and said, "In this way, the next thing is the confrontation between the two armies."

"March 500,000 to 200,000, our army will definitely win!" Zhu Shouen's eyes lit up and he said excitedly.

"Not necessarily." Zhuge Yu shook his head and said, "If the person exceeds 100,000, the winner will no longer be a simple confrontation above the military force. Before the fight has been fought, the winner must not be a premature assertion."

It is impossible for 500,000 troops to be placed on the battlefield at once. The position chosen by Jiang Cheng alone has limited the scale of the battlefield. It is already the limit to be able to invest 50,000 or 60,000 at one time. Moreover, Jiang Cheng has a back-to-water camp and connects the two sides of the straits with boats. It is a good place for advancement, attacking and retreating or defending. This is obviously not a temporary decision. Jiang Cheng probably had already taken into account the possibility of leaving the city to fight before he arrived. When he realized something was wrong, he immediately seized the opportunity.

Zhuge Yu didn't say these plans, but he was very impressed. He decided to lose before he could win and put himself invincible first. This is the mentality that a general should have, but few people can really do it.

"When will we send troops?" Chen Li asked.

"Since the other party has obtained the right place, we must at least occupy the time of the sky!" Zhuge Yu shook his head and pointed to the map and said, "It's winter now, with the northwest wind as the main one. If we send troops at this time, we will go against the wind, which will be unfavorable to our army. When the wind direction turns back next year, the wind will reverse. That's the best opportunity to send troops."

"It will take several months!" Zhu Shouen said dissatisfied.

"This is necessary. We have lost the advantage of the territory. If we lose the time again, the outcome of this battle will be unpredictable!" Zhuge Yu shook his head and looked at Zhu Shouen seriously: "This battle is mainly me. I will also agree to you before going to the war. You must not interfere in making decisions, otherwise..."

"Okay, let's say a few words!" Chen Li waved his hand, signaling Zhu Shouen not to say more, and looked at Zhuge Yu and said, "Then what should we do now? Just wait for it?"

"Of course not!" Zhuge Yu smiled and said, "The Dakun Dynasty discussed the navy to block the river surface. We cannot let them cross the camp and harass the rear of our army."

"But now not only the northwest wind direction, but if we want to confront the navy, there are not many soldiers in our army who are Xi war against the water. Secondly, fighting against the current and against the wind, isn't it impossible to have any right time and place?" Chen Li said in confusion.

"Situ is what he is worried about!" Zhuge Yu smiled and said, "There is no need to fight directly with the enemy. We just need to set up multiple crossbows on the river bank, then cross the river with iron ropes, and set up more wooden stakes along the coast to stop the opponent's naval army from harassing."

"Wonderful!" Chen Li smiled and said, "I have a little involvement in the science of water conservancy, so what if I leave this matter to me?"

"It would be better if Situ is willing to preside over the leadership." Zhuge En nodded with a smile. Although the Dakang Dynasty was not as good as the Dakang Dynasty and the Dakang Dynasty, if it were to gather talents from all walks of life, it was the best among the three dynasties. Otherwise, the Dakang Dynasty would not be so rich.

"What about me?" Zhu Shouen frowned.

"Mr. Zhu's injuries were not healed in the last battle. Why not take this opportunity to practice hard and recover from his injuries. If a master fights against each other in the future, Mr. Zhu will also be a member of our army's main combat power!"

"Okay!" Zhu Shouen nodded. His strengths were of no military use, so it would be better to rest with peace of mind. Last time he lost to Jiang Cheng, he was always worried. If he hadn't been injured, how could he easily lose to his opponent?

...

Upstream of Kunjiang River, Jiang Cheng’s military camp.

Zhao Zihao took Xue Yu and Di Yun and the other generals stalked into Jiang Cheng's tent. They were just seeing Jiang Cheng breaking into the tent, reading a military book, and the three bowed to greet him.

"Master, it's been more than half a month, but there's no enemy attack?" Zhao Zihao frowned and said, "We're going to stay here forever?"

"If you are an enemy general, will you choose to attack at this time?" Jiang Cheng did not answer, but asked back.

"This..." Zhao Zihao shook his head: "If I were the enemy general, although Dakang had many soldiers and abundant food, our army occupied the advantage of territory. It is winter now, with the northwest winds mostly, and the weather is also on our army. It is not wise to attack at this time, but Zhu Shouen..."

What kind of virtue does Zhu Shouen have? Zhao Zihao has seen before. Apart from his cultivation, he does not have much excellence in military affairs. Will such a person consider so much?

"Who said that the enemy's chief general was Zhu Shouen?" Jiang Cheng shook his head and smiled: "What he saw may not be true. The other party is deliberately concealing the real chief general, so Zhu Shouen is just a cover."

"There are such people in the Kang Dynasty?" Di Yun said in surprise. These surrenders were naturally familiar with the Da Kang Dynasty. If they had not been disappointed with the Da Kang Dynasty and even if they had some friendship with Jiang Cheng in the past, they would not have surrendered so simply.

"Yes!" Jiang Cheng nodded affirmatively: "If it weren't for the national policy of the Great Kang Dynasty governing military affairs with civil and military affairs, there were actually many talents. Unfortunately, although this national policy was beneficial to stability, it also lost the hearts of countless talents. Otherwise, today would not have been broken into the country so easily."

The foundation, Xue Yu nodded silently when he heard this. No matter what, they were all rebels. From a Confucian perspective, they were going to be nailed to the pillar of shame.

Seeing that the atmosphere was wrong, Zhao Zihao quickly smiled and said, "Master, then we will wait like this. If the other party really wants to use the time, at least it will have to wait until the spring next year, or even longer."

"We are guarding the ground. As long as we guard this Lingguan, we will win." Jiang Cheng smiled and said, "But we can't make the opponent so relaxed. A few days ago, many war horses were transported from the north bank. Li Mu had organized a cavalry of more than 30,000 people and ordered Li Mu to lead the cavalry to challenge. If the opponent has many people, there is no need to fight and retreat directly. If the opponent has few soldiers, he will wait for an opportunity to eat the opponent's troops and at the same time, he will order the navy to go down the river to support Li Mu so as not to suffer losses."

"Will the other party send troops?" Di Yun couldn't help asking.

"The war will definitely not be possible, but it will still fight when dealing with the cavalry." Jiang Cheng smiled and said, "Otherwise, before this battle begins, morale will be depressed first. However, although the cavalry is powerful, tell Li Mu not to go to a narrow terrain and be careful of being trapped. The enemy's chief general can be nowhere to be under me. When you see the enemy lure the enemy, remember to think twice before you act."

"In addition, every day the shooting posts enter the military camp, find some soldiers who can curse others outside the other military camp. Although the enemy is unwilling to fight, they cannot make it too good!"
