Chapter 462 (1/2)
”In addition, Shen Shuai of zhennanguan will be informed of this. This is also the news he has been waiting for. I believe he will know what to do after he knows this news.” Lu que said again.
Gu Qingcheng said, ”according to Shen Shuai's previous biography, zhennanguan has opened a defensive array, which shows that the situation is very critical. We need not think of some ways to share the pressure of zhennanguan before the decisive battle, such as mobilizing the left army to forbid the guards to go north, or letting Bai Xia lead the wolves to attract part of the animal tide?”
”No, it's too dangerous.” Lu que shook his head. ”Although the scale of Xiyuan beast tide is not the largest in history, there are hundreds of thousands of beasts coming out of xiyuanze. Besides, there are fierce beasts in the earth and Xuan stages in the beast tide. They can't cope with it just by the guard of the left Army and more than ten thousand wolves in Baixia. I believe that with the firmness of zhennanguan and the 400000 garrison there, we can stick to the decisive battle.”
”But everything is just in case. Zhennanguan relies on nothing more than the thick wall. If the wall is broken, the rest of the soldiers will not have the slightest advantage or even be at a disadvantage in the face of the tide of beasts except for running thunder and riding again. In that case, all our previous strategies will be in vain.” Gu Qingcheng still has some worries to say.
”Sister Qingcheng, I have never asked Shen Shuai to defend zhennanguan, otherwise I would not have moved the people of nanjingbianjun a few months in advance, and I would not regret asking His Majesty to transfer Bai Shuai to the South and set up a second line of defense in Qingquan city.” Lu pulled out the map of Southern Xinjiang, pointed to the location of zhennanguan, and said, ”zhennanguan was established to guard against Tianxing and Nanli. Now Tianxing has been destroyed. As long as we can solve the animal tide, we can gather a large army to eliminate Nanli and bring 36 counties into the territory of Daqian completely. At that time, zhennanguan won't be of much use. It doesn't matter whether it exists or not.”
”You mean you can give up zhennanguan when necessary, and then take Daqian as the final place for decisive battle?” Gu Qingcheng exclaimed, and asked with an unbelievable face.
”No, the final decisive battle will be in zhennanguan, but after this battle, it doesn't matter whether zhennanguan still exists.” Lu que said with a flash of light in his eyes.
”I have never heard you mention this. Lu que, the country and the country are all tied to you. You must think carefully and never take risks.” Gu Qingcheng got up and went to the opposite side of Lu que, holding the table in both hands.
”Sister Qingcheng, don't worry. I understand what you say and what you worry about. I won't take risks.” Lu que took a look at Gu Qingcheng, surrounded the Zhennan pass on the map with both hands, and said, ”although I said it was a decisive battle before, I never thought about winning or losing with the beast tide under the Zhennan pass, because even if I could win, it would only be a tragic victory. After the war, all the major legions had to carry out supplementary repair, and we didn't have enough troops to go south for at least two or three years, So as to destroy Nanli. ”
”What do you want to do?” Gu Qingcheng stares at zhennanguan, which is surrounded by Lu Que's hands on the map.
”If we want to reduce casualties, we must use force. Zhennan pass is the grand pass of the mainland built by our da Qian for more than 200 years. I want to use this pass to bury the animals who cherish their fate. ” As Lu said this, he gradually closed his hands and covered zhennanguan completely.
