Chapter 172 The Han Strategy is Used

Chaohua Taiji looked at Burihatu and felt a little uncomfortable. He felt that although this person looked similar to him, why did he feel strange?

He may not know the meaning of "temperament". Although Burihatu looks like an ordinary Mongolian nobleman, he has read a lot of Chinese books, especially military books and strategies, and is familiar with them. Therefore, his speech and behavior are very different.

During this period, it was inevitably tainted with some hints of Han literati.

There are some nice words to say about the calm temperament of Han literati, such as "the wind is light and the clouds are calm", "heaving a heavy weight is as light as a light", "walking leisurely in the courtyard", "the face does not change when Mount Tai collapses in front of you", etc. Of course, if Gao Pragmatic, a veteran

To describe it as an actor, it can be described in one sentence: pretentious.

Han scribes are best at showing off, which is a highly pragmatic conclusion. Obviously, while studying Sinology, Burihatu also learned this skill in addition to military tactics.

Therefore, when Tumen and Chaohua asked him what his clever strategy was at the same time, Burihatu stood with one hand behind his back, and waved Fang Qiu with the other hand, giving instructions: "The strategy of dividing the troops into ten places is indeed effective, but it will indeed take a long time."

Faced with unpredictable losses, more or less, although it is feasible, it is difficult to say the best strategy. I think the so-called best strategy is to obtain the greatest results at the smallest cost, so I thought of another strategy for the Khan, Tai

Good reference."

Of course, Tumen and Chaohua had nothing to say, so they nodded repeatedly and asked him to come quickly.

Burihatu then said: "This strategy is also inspired by the high pragmatism..."

Tumen and Chaohua couldn't help but be stunned, why did they still care about the person opposite?

Burihatu did not explain, but just said: "There is a cloud in the art of war. The imaginary is the real, and the real is the imaginary. The way to victory or defeat is often hidden between the virtual and the real."

He pointed to the opposite side of the Liao River and continued: "The situation before us now is clear. The opponent has a total of twenty or thirty gunboats. These gunboats are powerful and fast, and the people on board have poor eyesight."

Excellent, if you want to launch a surprise attack with them, the truth is to put it bluntly, it is a competition of speed, and this speed used to be our magic weapon that has always been tried and tested, but now it is a bit difficult, so we have to change our thinking."

Tumen hurriedly said that these words were all explaining to the idiot Chaohua, which made him a little anxious, so he interrupted: "We all understand these principles, so just tell us how to crack it."

Burihatu smiled slightly and said: "Okay, let's talk about cracking... This cracking method comes from the Han people's strategy, which is called 'Build the plank road openly and cross the Chencang secretly'."

Chaohua Taiji asked in astonishment: "Why build a plank road? Now we are crossing a river. Do we also need to build a bridge? Also, where is Chencang? Is that place suitable for crossing the river?"

The muscles in Burihatu's cheeks twitched and he looked towards Tumen. Tumen dodged his eyes and coughed lightly: "This plank road and Chencang have nothing to do with us now. What Burihatu said was the name of a strategy. What happened

At the time when Liu Bang and Xiang Yu were fighting... right?"

The word "ba" is obviously a sign of lack of confidence, but he actually said it right. Burihatu expressed his understanding in his heart. It seems that after his previous persuasion, the Khan might have actually read some books, although he had a rough reading.

Not deep, but still an improvement.

Therefore, he nodded in affirmation with great satisfaction and praised: "The Great Khan is learned and admirable. This strategy indeed comes from the period of the conflict between Chu and Han. I won't explain the meaning now. I will only talk about how we are going to do it now."

Build the plank road in the open and cross the Chencang secretly."

I feel a little aggrieved when I hear "Fried Flower Taiji". I don't understand the co-writing?

He felt unhappy, and after hearing that Burihatu was too lazy to explain, he felt that Burihatu looked down on him, which made him even more unhappy, so he just said a deep "hmm" and said no more.

Burihatu did not notice the difference in Chaohua's mood, and continued: "We can camp in a position where the Ming navy can see but cannot attack, and then send people to cut down trees and build boats to cross the river.

The appearance was used to deceive the Ming army. However, in fact, most of these wood were not really used to build ships. Instead, they were made into dummies, put on clothes, and stood in the camp..."

Tumen suddenly understood this time, his eyes lit up, and he said: "Then, our main force will leave quietly, find another place to cross the river, and surprise the Ming army's water stronghold?"

Burihatu applauded and laughed: "The Great Khan is wise, that's exactly what happened."

Tumen felt a little carried away by his praise. He stroked his beard vigorously and said with a smile: "Hey, they are each other, they are each other. This is what the Han people call heroes who see the same thing."

Chaohua looked on with cold eyes, but he thought a lot more clearly, and thought to himself: We are bullshit, if Burihatu hadn't come up with the idea of ​​building the bridge, you guys would be such a bullshit hero.

Of course, no matter how stupid he is, he will never say this.

But Bu Rihatu added at this time: "However, although this plan is roughly the same, there are two points that need to be paid attention to. First, our disguise must be good, and we must ensure that the other party will be deceived.

, so the work of cutting down trees and building ships must be done as if it were real, and the other party must not be able to see any flaws..."

"I have a question." Chaohua said coldly at this time: "Don't shipbuilding have to be by the river? Now the Ming Army's navy is so powerful that we don't even dare to go near the river. How can we build ships?"

Tumen was also stunned when he heard this, and said to himself: Yes, this seems to be a problem.

He then turned his attention to Burihatu.

But Burihatu shook his head and said: "Chaohua Taiji may have misunderstood. What I call shipbuilding does not mean building large ships like the Ming Dynasty Navy, but only small ships that can carry more than one person and one horse, which is smaller than ours."

The smaller kind of raft."

Chaohua chuckled: "It's smaller than a raft, so what's the use? Will the Ming army on the opposite side believe it?"

As mentioned before, the Mongols carried skin bags with them on expeditions. After inflating them, they could cross shallow water, but crossing deep water required connecting multiple skin bags together and laying wooden planks and other materials to create a raft.

The largest of these rafts can carry more than ten people and ten horses at a time. They are not too small and are relatively easy to disassemble. In comparison, the small boats proposed by Burihatu are probably equivalent to some of the ones in Han areas.

A few big men can carry the small ferryboat of the ferry boatman. Although it is relatively simple to build, its carrying capacity is very limited and it does not seem to be of much use.

But after hearing this question, Burihatu just smiled slightly and said calmly: "My Mongolian shipbuilding skills are not as good as those of the Ming Dynasty. No matter how much we build a 'big ship', we will only get beaten. And the bigger the ship, the easier it is for them to use cannons."

But small boats are different. Just imagine, if the Ming army thought that our army was going to send out thousands of boats, but each of them was just a small boat like this, what use would their cannons have? By then it would be a chaotic battle, and they would have blunderbuss.

When there is a bow, who will win and who will lose? Who can predict it? Therefore, big ships are useless, but small ships can become a threat to the Ming army."

Tumen was overjoyed when he heard this and laughed: "Yes, yes, Ben Khan also thinks this is the truth. Well, if we hadn't fought like this, we might still have suffered unnecessary losses. Ben Khan couldn't wait to do it like this!"

When Chao Hua heard this, he was dissatisfied, but when he thought about it, it seemed to be the same reason. As long as the Ming army felt that building small ships on their side would pose a serious threat to them, they would definitely focus their attention on the camp.

According to Burihatu's idea, wooden figures were used instead of real people, and the main force was transferred elsewhere. It seemed that he could really deceive the Ming army.

Seeing Chaohua, Burihatu no longer questioned, and then continued: "The second thing we need to pay attention to is that we need to find a good location to cross the river first. This place can't be too far, nor too close.

If it is too far, it will be difficult to surprise the Ming army's water stronghold immediately after crossing the river, which may give the opponent time to strengthen the land defense of the water stronghold; if it is too close, it may be discovered by the opponent's scouting horses when crossing the river, causing the navy to intercept it.

Failed to cross the river."

When Chaohua heard this, he waved his hands and said, "This matter is easy to handle. I have sent people to run up and down the area several times in the past few days. The road is already familiar. I will send people to check it out later."

Choose the most suitable place to cross the river!"

Tumen nodded and said, "That's fine. I've just arrived, and I'm so busy with work. I'm not as qualified as the people who speculated on you. So I'll ask Taiji to take care of this matter."

Chaohua Taiji raised his chin slightly and smiled: "It's easy to say, easy to say, the Khan and the warriors have a good rest. We will have a real meeting with the Ming army in a few days!"
