In the Guiyi, Ye An and Chen Lin sat facing each other. Between them was the map of Huanzhou that had been planned by Ye An. However, at this time, they each held a stroke in their hands, one red and one black, representing
Understand the direction of the Song army's upcoming troops and the movements of the Xiqiang people.
Everything is a deduction, but it is a deduction based on the reasonable predictions of Chen Lin, a veteran and war-experienced waiter.
Not only did Lan Jizong go to the battlefield, Chen Lin also followed Emperor Zhenzong to the battlefield. I dare not say anything else, but she still has some experience in the changes on the battlefield.
War also has rules to follow, especially on the battlefield in the cold weapon era, where conditions are more restrictive, which makes it easier to deduce.
There is no way for people to violate the rules of nature. The human power of this era is weaker than that of later generations.
Chen Lin wrote an arrow and inserted it directly into the Liuguan village where Ye An was guarding, saying: "Although the number of Xiqiang people is large, if they want to build up their morale, they must attack the city and plunder the village, mainly by looting. If they disperse their troops in the countryside,
, then the morale of the army must be unstable, so attacking the fortress is the best!"
Ye An nodded, looked at Liu Guan Village and smiled and said: "Liu Guan Village has nearly a thousand soldiers and armors. Although the number is not large, it is better because the terrain is higher and the walls of the village are strong. There is enough food in it to support a whole life."
The monthly cost is too much for the Western Qiang people to conquer."
Chen Lin clicked on the edge of Liu Guan's stronghold: "But there is no running water in the stronghold, only one well. If the water source is cut off and the siege continues for a long time, the well will definitely dry up, and then no matter how much food there is, it will be useless."
!”
As expected, he was a veteran, and this move was quite vicious. Ye An frowned and thought for a moment before making a cross on Liu Guan Village, but Chen Lin frowned and said, "Is it such a pity to give up now? After all, Liu Guan Village is high in the city.
If it is strong, there will be casualties under strong attack."
Ye An shook his head and said: "The design is flawed. No matter how strong the fort is, it is useless. Besides, there are many fields around and houses are dotted here and there. It should be the target of the party members. Giving up the fort is the best choice."
"Party person? You..."
"What's wrong with making plans early?"
"What about the Xiqiang people?"
"You don't really think that the Xiqiang people are a trouble for the Song Dynasty, do you? They are scattered tribes. Although the total population is large, they are scattered in various parts of the northwest. Wanting to truly unite is almost equivalent to wishful thinking. If the Western Qiang people
If the Qiang people can sincerely unite and respond to each other, do you think Huanzhou is still the Huanzhou of the Song Dynasty? The Dangxiang people used the wrong chess piece, so that such a situation occurs, and Li Deming is probably already angry in Xingqing Mansion. "
"What do you mean?"
Chen Lin looked at Ye An suspiciously, why did he feel that this guy was speaking from the perspective of a party member.
But in fact, Ye An is playing the role of the Dangxiang people and the Xiqiang people. This is the blue army in the red and blue military exercise, and it is also a "whetstone", although Ye An does not know much about the Dangxiang people and the Xiqiang people's use of troops.
means and level, but it does not prevent him from guessing the opponent's strategic intentions.
The Xiqiang people simply wanted to "retaliate" against the Song Dynasty and vent their grievances about being bullied. Of course, they also hoped to cause trouble and gain more benefits from the Song Dynasty.
They knew that the Song Dynasty would definitely appease them. As long as they caused enough trouble but did not disturb the Song Dynasty's foundation in Huanzhou, everything would be fine.
After all, the last thing the Song Dynasty wants now is turmoil in the border states.
Don't think that the Xiqiang people don't understand the situation of the Song Dynasty. To submit to the rule of the Song Dynasty is to make a living in the Song Dynasty. If you don't know the pros and cons, there is no need to mess around.
Chen Lin kept making arrangements on the map with her pen, but Ye An could always think of some countermeasures to deal with it.
Chen Lin used the method that the imperial court had set before to appease and divide and quell the unrest. Ye An considered many issues, such as the Xiqiang people being scattered in the wild, which was not conducive to the imperial army's clearing out. This alone made Chen Lin a little nervous.
Caught off guard.
The tactic of breaking them into pieces was quite clever. The Song Dynasty used a combination of kindness and power. At this time, it was impossible to attack the ordinary Xiqiang people, and the most direct consequence was that the suppression would not proceed smoothly.
The deduction on the map made Chen Lin very angry. The veins in the hand holding the pencil were exposed. She looked at Ye An with a "murderous" look from time to time, like a knife but there was nothing she could do.
He knew that the contest on this map was likely to become a reality.
Ye An raised his eyebrows and looked at Chen Lin pointing an arrow at Qinggang Gorge, the inherent land of the Western Qiang people. Ye An immediately frowned and said: "Are you crazy? As long as the border troops dare to go to Qinggang Gorge, there will be
There is a risk of being dragged into the quagmire of war. The terrain there is dangerous and easy to defend and difficult to attack. Do you know why the Chinese government wants the Western Qiang people to settle in Qinggang Gorge?"
Chen Lin was a little confused. Ye An's words made him confused, but what he said next gave him a powerful enlightenment.
"It is precisely because of the terrain of Qinggang Gorge that it is an easy-to-defend and difficult-to-attack land for both the Song Dynasty and Dangxiang. Therefore, the Song Dynasty cannot occupy it, and the Dangxiang people cannot occupy it either, because whoever takes that place
If a piece of land is occupied, whoever will become a thorn in the opponent's side will become a thorn in the side of the opponent. Therefore, the Xiqiang people are the most suitable place there, but once we attack Qinggang Gorge, we will definitely be held back by the Xiqiang people. At this time, the Dangxiang people will intersperse.
how?"
Ye An's few words made Chen Lin break into a cold sweat, and he suddenly realized that the pen in his hand might be as heavy as a thousand pieces!
"At that time, the war situation in Huanzhou will not be something that the Xiqiang people or the state can control."
"So what?!"
Chen Lin couldn't help but ask, but Ye An smiled and said: "Of course it is simple, let these Xiqiang people return to Qinggang Gorge, and let the Dangxiang people be fooled!"
"How can party members be fooled? Don't treat everyone as a fool."
Ye An looked at Chen Lin seriously, nodded slowly and said: "You are right to the point. Neither Dangxiang nor the Xiqiang people are fools. One wants to gain more benefits from the Song Dynasty through turmoil, and the other hopes to reap the benefits.
The advantage of fishermen is that the smarter people are and the more they want to obtain higher returns, the more they will fall into the vicious circle of the game. As long as we give enough benefits, we can make the party members fooled. Then our
The opportunity came."
Chen Lin looked at Ye An suspiciously again. He found that listening to Ye An's words was like listening to a story. It was very unreal, as if even the Xiqiang people were "tools" that could be used.
Seeing Chen Lin's appearance, Ye An knew that he didn't believe it. He took out a silver collar from his arms and placed it on the map. It happened to be on the Qinggang Gorge and said: "As long as there are enough interests to drive it, believe me, Xiqiang
People will also become the sword in the hands of the Song Dynasty. We will not only use the most violent attack to wake up the Xiqiang people, but also use the most violent wealth to stun the Xiqiang people! All the rewards given by the imperial court to the tribes moving westward should be hoarded for the time being.
If you don’t give it, when the Xiqiang people we fight on the battlefield cry for their fathers and mothers, we can use these massive wealth to make the Xiqiang people grateful. I believe that conquests like mine are the most valuable, but this is only the first step.
There are still many details that need to be implemented, so I would like to ask the senior officials to send out the Imperial City Division’s policemen to chase the reward team quickly.”
After Ye An finished speaking, he stood up, ignoring Chen Lin's exclamation: "How did you know that people from the Imperial City Division are with you?!"
"The disguise is so unprofessional! The handle of the knife should be wrapped with a strip of cloth, the fast boots under the feet should be replaced, and the following teams should alternate between each other. Passers-by should be used as cover to avoid being too familiar and leaving an impression. Cheng
Gongshou can avoid me when he sees me, once or twice without any surprise. Does he treat me as a fool or himself as a fool every time?!"
Chen Lin remained silent, but the only word that echoed in his heart was Ye An's words, which had been planted into his heart: "conquer".
