C966 bickering (2/2)
This was a key issue, and everyone present had their gazes fixed on Yi Nan. Prince Kung thought carefully for a moment before replying calmly, ”Everything on the battlefield, the victor or loser is on the line, it depends on the time and place of the battle!”
”If we were to say that a decisive battle between the enemy and me on the Great Plains and Xiao Letian's army is defenseless, then with the cooperation of the cavalry and infantry, I dare say that there is a 90% chance of victory … ”Because we have the cavalry, with a deep range, we can completely use the cavalry's advantage to coordinate with the infantry to drag them down bit by bit. After all, we have the advantage in numbers …”
”But, if Xiao Letian's army were to take up defensive positions, have their own positions and complex terrain, what they are most afraid of is having to rely on the city streets, then our chances of winning might not even reach 30% …”
Ah? There was a clamor in the hall, and someone had stood out immediately. ”Prince Kung, so it means that you have used millions of silver, so what you have cultivated is not some invincible army?” The enemy only has thirty thousand, and you can't even take it? ”Is the silver already given to the dogs …?”
”No, didn't you hear me? I mean, it depends on the time and the place. War is not a game! ”
”Don't fool me, you bastard. I have read a few military books, could Xiao Letian's thirty thousand strong army all come out? He will need to leave a portion of his troops behind to protect the Ryukyu and the special region. The total number of manoeuvres that can be deployed will only be twenty thousand … ”
”Look at us, the defenses here are the Green Battalion and the capital city has eight flags, these eighty thousand people are all combat soldiers that can bring people to the battlefield, but you said you have thirty percent confidence in fighting against eighty thousand to twenty thousand people?”
”Empress Dowager, right now, the only disadvantage I have against Prince Kung is military training. I have used up all my national power!”
Even though the Prince Kung was a prince who acted on behalf of his ancestors, the other princes' statuses were not low either. Even the Iron Hat King had to back off when they were working together to cause a ruckus.
Yi Yu was so angry that his temples were throbbing. He knew that this group of people wanted to avenge their personal affairs. When the Xishan Camp was being built, this group of bastards would go all out.
Even with black eyes, one could not see the change. It was impossible for the Xishan Camp to not have six or seven million taels if they wanted to build it. If they gave it to this group of people to manage, they would be loyal to the king.
Furthermore, this was only the first batch of investments. In the future, Xishan Camp would have to pay several million taels of silver every year to purchase more bullets. It would not be excessive to say that he was an endless supply of gold ores.
A pack of wolves couldn't even open their mouths, and these hungry wolves didn't make sense. They didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but they didn't feel that they wanted to argue because they didn't want to listen to your reasoning.
He has his own perseverance. No matter what you say, the command of the Xishan Camp cannot give you even the slightest bit.
In the end, there was only a sound of ”pa”, and Ci Xi, who was behind the bead curtain, was so angry that his enamel fingernails broke, ”Do you think I is a dead person? The government doesn't seem to have a single point of discussion... All of them did not learn anything, but all of them had the ability to speak. Let's not talk about other things, what's the difference between the Gun s? ”
”What's the difference?” In the end, which country's goods were of good quality and cheap? Which country's military officers would the army train in? Do you understand all this? ”Without understanding anything, he became an expert at pointing fingers instead …”
”Go home and meditate! ”When have you thought it through? Go to Prince Gong's Mansion and apologize to him before going to court. If you don't understand it, then go to your house and raise a big yellow dog!”
The scolding made all the officials who were making trouble speechless. They had no choice but to pay their respects to the empress dowager and leave the Yangxin Palace dejectedly.
