Chapter 659 Defeat the bandits in the way of bandits?
The appearance of large ships is of course nothing to this military base. Here are the best large ships in the entire Tang Dynasty.
But the problem is, only big ships...
Not enough.
No matter how luxurious the fleet is, it is impossible for them to chase people all over the mountains and seas.
As a result, it would be impossible to suppress such a special group of bandits.
And when this happens, it's very scary.
Not only will the people along the coast be tortured, but the country will also be furious, and the responsibility for the entire great undertaking of maritime trade will also be overwhelming.
By then...
It's a trivial matter for him to be implicated a little bit, but the key point is that Li Sheng will definitely be affected.
and……
In the land of China, a king will emerge in five hundred years.
If this Li Sheng disappears, when will there be another Li Sheng?
this problem……
Chai Shao only thought for a moment and immediately made a decision in his heart.
Although he has withdrawn from the temple and lived in seclusion, he must not sit back and watch something like this happen!
And even if we don't talk about this, just talking about the future issue, this must be solved.
Changsun Wuji's face was full of worry, "Then what should we do if this happens?"
As a result of the ravages of pirates, Changsun Wuji, a civil servant, reacted faster than Chai Shao and immediately realized that something was wrong.
How to deal with this matter is really urgent!
Chai Shao took a deep breath and said, "For today's plan, we can't wait any longer..."
"They want to divide their troops into bandits, and they want to get food locally to support the war..."
Changsun Wuji looked pale and said with great difficulty,
"Then what should we do? Or we should report it to the Holy Marquis..."
"No, no need to."
At this time, Chai Shao suddenly let out a light in his eyes.
Changsun Wuji couldn't help but be stunned when he saw it...
How do you see this expression? Is there any other way to think of it?
But there seems to be no solution to this situation now...
"Now the opponent is in the dark and we are in the open. We have to focus on the decisive battle. The opponent will definitely not be fooled. But if we go up to plow the courtyard and sweep holes, I'm afraid..."
Changsun Wuji had little experience in leading troops, but it was not that he did not know military affairs. He could still give advice and serve as a staff officer.
After thinking for a while, he then added with a grimace, "Since we can't find the other party's old camp, the government-run banditry may only be wiped out, and it may even make the banditry worse. This... what should we do, what should we do..."
As he talked, Changsun Wuji became more and more anxious and couldn't calm down anymore. He was completely like an ant on a hot pot.
However, Chai Shao also said at this time, "Passive defense will definitely not work, and leading the entire army to a decisive battle will probably not work either. For the current plan... there is only one way, if you can't defeat it, join in!"
"You can join if you can't beat me?"
Changsun Wuji was stunned for a moment, then his expression changed, "Brother Chai, no, General Chai, are you going to join the gangsters? This...this is impossible!"
"Look what you said, where did you go?"
Chai Shao laughed and said, "The bandits who can't beat Luo Cao will go to Luo Cao on their own. How can such a thing happen in the world? It's not done by my ministers of the Tang Dynasty. Then I can't wait until I am a drunkard?"
"I mean, follow their tactics."
"plan?"
Changsun Wuji was startled, "How do you say this?"
Chai Shao's smile faded, his face became serious and he said,
"I haven't thought of a specific plan yet. But as the Holy Marquis said, this sea is naturally suitable for bandits to breed. If this is the case, then we will divide our troops and defeat the bandits in the same way as bandits!"
"Defeat bandits their way?"
Changsun Wuji was stunned for a moment, but then he came to his senses,
"Brother Chai said that we should also divide our troops? But..."
"Although these sailors were trained by the Holy Marquis himself,... their hearts are unpredictable. What if they just drive away on the boat?"
"After running away, they can become pirates on their own, or even surrender directly to the enemy... If the enemy gives any preferential treatment to the pirates, they might become their own strength. Isn't this over?"
Changsun Wuji felt that this idea was too crazy.
However, Chai Shao came from the front lines of the battlefield after all, and his understanding is still deeper than that of Changsun Wuji.
When the latter said this, Chai Shao smiled.
"This sounds complicated, but it's actually not difficult. Why don't we bring a small force first and dispatch a large ship or three or five small ships. We will act when the opportunity arises and wait for the opportunity to kill!"
"so?"
When Changsun Wuji heard this, he couldn't help but be a little stunned.
Is this possible? It sounds like a nomadic barbarian...
I always feel unreliable.
After thinking about it for a while, I finally expressed my opinions and feelings. If it is unreliable, it is indeed unreliable.
But Chai Shao didn't think so.
"Brother Changsun, think about it. The enemy is in the dark and I am in the light. Why is this?"
"because……"
On this kind of issue, Changsun Wuji was a well-educated civil servant after all, and he could even give Chai Shao some advice on the matter on the spot.
But before he could say anything, Chai Shao patted Changsun Wuji on the shoulder and continued,
"Brother, I know what you want to say, brother, because although we lead troops as soldiers, we are always good people at our core. Which of the soldiers is not a good man? As the saying goes, a gentleman can be bullied. I will wait for you.
This is a farm, and they are just plundering..."
"But that's not what I want to say. The key point is that we are a large army and they are a small group!"
"Small stocks?"
Changsun Wuji was startled, "How do you say this?"
"The army is stationed here, and the other party's ships are plundering and harassing everywhere, just like a small group of cavalry raiding the camp at the frontier. We are not actually in the early Ming Dynasty, and they are not in the dark. The key is that there are many of us, and we are destined to be unable to react in time.
, and their small groups of troops come prepared every time, how can I successfully pursue them every time? There is no way to guard against thieves for a thousand days."
"But if we go after them in turn, their scattered ships will become scattered small military camps everywhere. At this time, the party that is looting...that is us."
"this……"
Changsun Wuji was a little confused after hearing this, and this kind of operation...but there seemed to be nothing wrong with his thinking.
The larger the number of people, the slower the response, because the transmission efficiency of orders is greatly reduced - otherwise, no matter how brave Huo Qubing was, it would be impossible for a few hundred people to go straight to Huanglong and overrun the old camp of the Huns.
It's not because a few hundred people can really defeat nearly 100,000 Huns. It's precisely because the Huns also face the same problem.
Can't react!
Even if the coach can react, the dispatcher can't.
Thinking about it this way...
Changsun Wuji pondered for a while, then raised his head and looked at Chai Shao, "Then I'll wait for the next step..."
"Hehe...yes, they can be bandits, why can't we just be barbarians?"
Chai Shao smiled excitedly, "This is how to play at sea!"
