Chapter 1046 : The Weakness
Zhang Shicheng said to himself: "In the battle of Poyang Lake, Zhu Yuanzhang was greatly injured, and his strength became stronger and weaker. I have arrived in Shaoxing in the south, crossed Xuzhou in the north and reached Jingou in Jining, and west from Ruying, Haosi, and east
Bohai, with a land of more than 2,000 miles, hundreds of thousands of armored soldiers, a strong household registration, a wealth of national resources, and still has strength. As long as you take the opportunity to attack Jinling City, what's the chance of winning?"
Everyone suddenly realized it, and Shi Nai'an felt even more at ease, thinking that Zhang Shicheng was indeed a master of his generation, because according to his observation, Zhu Yuanzhang had indeed been as Zhang Shicheng said before the Battle of Poyang Lake, and since Zhang Shicheng said just now, this time
The battle of Poyang Lake was extremely fierce, and the Han Emperor Chen Youliang died even after Poyang Lake. Only Zhang Dingbian led the pitiful soldiers and horses to escape. If so, even though Zhu Yuanzhang defeated Chen Youliang by chance, he would not have been killed or injured.
Younger, at this time, the only thing to do is to restore your vitality and not easily cause great wars!”
Zhang Shicheng chose to attack Zhu Yuanzhang at this time, which was indeed the best time. First, Zhu Yuanzhang had just gone through a fierce battle, and the soldiers were exhausted. Second, Zhu Yuanzhang had just experienced the Battle of Poyang Lake and saw Chen Youliang's strength. Although Zhang Shicheng had fewer troops than
Chen Youliang, but his strength cannot be underestimated over the years of rest and recuperation. It can be said that there are many soldiers and a wide range of generals. Another 300,000 army is approaching Jinling City. You can imagine the psychological pressure that Zhu Yuanzhang has caused? Based on these two points alone, Shi Nai'an will
It is a good move for Zhang Shicheng to fail to send troops to help in the battle of Poyang Lake! Thinking of this, he sincerely praised: No wonder Your Majesty is so popular with the world. This is indeed a good move."
Only then did the others understand Zhang Shicheng's good intentions. I remembered that facing Chen Youliang was indeed much scary than facing Zhu Yuanzhang. I felt that Zhang Shicheng's far-sighted vision and his expression became much more respectful without realizing it.
All this was naturally seen in Zhang Shicheng's eyes. He smiled, his eyes shining brightly, and his expression was a little distant, "Mr. Shi is well-versed in history and has outstanding talent. If he can be my Zhang around me, he will be my Zhang
Liang, I am afraid of destroying Zhu Yuanzhang...? "
Through some contact, Shi Nai'an had a great affection for Zhang Shicheng. When he heard that he wanted to invite him, he couldn't help but jump up in his heart. He was smart and studious since he was a child, and was extremely talented. He was a scholar at the age of 19, and was a Juren at the age of 28, and 36
He passed the Jinshi with Liu Bowen at the same time. He was just because he couldn't stand the officialdom of the Tartars, and he resigned and retired. He became a lonely teacher. Now Zhang Shicheng has great ambitions and is a respectful person. Isn't he a rare wise ruler?
It is not in vain that he can help him achieve his own hegemony. Thinking of this, I was nervous and thrilled.
What a person Zhang Shicheng is? Not to mention that he was a salt dealer who traveled around the world before he became an emperor. He was the best at observing his words and expressions. Seeing Shi Nai'an's eyes showing joy, he had already thought of seeking favor, and nodded with satisfaction: "As a saying goes
Tao, those who know the times are heroes. If you don’t come out of the mountain to help me start a career, you will be disappointed! "I praised a few words and said, "I am not hiding it. Today I will come, come here.
In addition to visiting Luo Guanzhong, the second thing is that he actually came to ask for help from Mr. "
Shi Nai'an said "Oh" and said, "Why did Your Majesty say this?"
Zhang Shicheng said: "The world only knows that the land I occupy," arrives in Shaoxing in the south, crosses Xuzhou in the north and reaches Jingou in Jining, and is located in Ruying, Haosi, and Bohai in the west. It is more than 2,000 miles away, with armor
One hundred thousand, the household registration is abundant and the country is rich, but I don’t know that I have great shortcomings?”
"Shortness?" Shi Nai'an was slightly stunned and looked at Luo Guanzhong, and saw that he was also full of doubt.
Zhang Shichengdao shook his head and smiled, "I am not careful to tell sir that since I raised an army to resist the Yuan Dynasty, I rely on only some salt vendors. They are first-class heroes who conquered the city and land, but...?"
Shi Nai'an glanced at Zhang Shicheng and said, "Your Majesty said they don't know how to water..."
Zhang Shicheng said in his heart: "Shi Nai'an is well-versed in history and has great talent. He is proficient in all the classics, poems, astronomy, geography, medicine, divination, astrology, etc., and is proficient in all techniques. It is true that he is well-known and can see my name at a glance.
What's the problem?"
Zhang Shicheng has many soldiers, and most of them are composed of salt dealers. Although these private salt dealers are in the south of the Yangtze River, they are surprisingly unable to water. The soldiers who know water are not formed for a while because they are not in good naval generals. The naval army has been
It is the weakness of Zhang Shicheng's army. Jinling City is located in the river and controls Huai. The situation is very dangerous. In the past, King Wei of Chu chose to build Jinling City here, and wanted to use the Yangtze River as a barrier to plan the world. This shows that his location is dangerous and he wants to capture Zhu Yuanzhang's Jinling City.
, It is undoubtedly empty talk without a navy army.
Zhang Shicheng was a little happy when Shi Nai'an explained the problem in one sentence, and nodded and said, "What Mr. Shi said is exactly the problem. I am rich in a country with hundreds of thousands of troops. I have suffered from the lack of a navy army.
Ah, I wonder if Mr. Shi has a solution?”
Shi Nai'an didn't expect that Zhang Shicheng was so straightforward. In addition to being a little moved, he was also a little proud. He was a dignified overlord and asked him for advice. What a glory this was. His old face turned red with excitement. He frowned.
After thinking about what Zhang Shicheng said just now, after weighing the pros and cons, he came up with an idea.
Zhang Shicheng came here and put his hope on Shi Nai'an. Seeing his frowning, he suddenly spread out and raised it slightly. Zhang Shicheng was happy and said to himself: "Okay, he has an idea!"
Sure enough, Shi Nai'an brows spread and turned his face and said, "Your Majesty, don't worry. Shi has two strategies in his mind, which can help His Majesty solve the weaknesses of the navy!"
Zhang Shicheng was overjoyed and hurriedly said, "Sir, come on, come on!"
Shi Nai'an said: "Shi's plan is to move strong aid. Jinling has natural dangers in the Yangtze River. If there is no strong naval force, it is difficult to attack. There must be a powerful naval force to help. Fang Guozhen's five brothers live for generations,
The Jiangsu and Zhejiang areas face waters and have 100,000 naval troops. As long as His Majesty wins over Fang Guozhen’s brothers, no one will be allowed. At that time, his Navy will help His Majesty attack Jinling, so will Jinling be destroyed?”
