Chapter 584 (1/2)
Meng Cang and Li Chang are the best people in Fengming Academy. Otherwise, they would not have participated in the competition for the first place in the mountain and sea painting. Looking at the extremely detailed map of Tianxing and the mountains and rivers of Nanli thirty-six counties in front of them, just a cup of tea, they have roughly guessed the meaning of Ye Zhiqiu.
”The layout of the battle of watching the stars and the battle of the tide of beasts is always based on the potential, the accumulation of small potential as the general trend, and the transformation of the balance of power into victory. Before the war started, they already have more than half the chance of winning. Although we don't know how many troops Lu Shuai still has after the battle of beast tide in Zhennan pass, if the troops are enough, I think Lu Shuai will divide his forces into four routes: Ning'an, xuan'an, Tianxing Fangshan and Nanhai. ” Li Chang said as he pointed his fingers at four places.
”Not bad.” Meng Cang nodded and said, ”in the winter of the previous year, the Tianxing lion army was destroyed in the battle of xiaoqingshan. Last spring, the fierce wind and the roaring tiger army captured Nanli Ningan River and two counties. The battle of Nanjiang broke out. Several legions fought against Tianxing until Tianxing surrendered more than a month ago. Then the animal tide broke out. After the animal tide, they sent troops to Nanli.”
Meng Cang pointed to the location of each big army on the map and continued to say, ”for more than a year, there have been constant wars in southern Xinjiang. Our big army has used millions of troops, which seems to be huge in scale and has the potential to devour mountains and rivers, but the daily consumption of so many troops is also extremely terrible. If Lu Shuai wants to use his troops against Nanli, he will not use his troops to fight for the opportunity as he did when he destroyed Tianxing. Lu Shuai will try his best to make a quick decision, or even force Nanli king to make a decisive decision, so as to finish his work in one battle and reduce the burden of domestic food and grass. ”
At this point, Meng Cang took a look at Ye Zhiqiu and continued, ”but Lu Shuai's military strategy is calm, or surprisingly stable. I agree with brother Li that Lu Shuai will divide his troops into three or four routes, but we can't guess how to use his troops, whether it's the combination of virtual and real forces or the combination of four routes.”
”Just as you said, for the sake of the overall situation of the war, Lu Shuai will divide his forces, but no matter how to mobilize his forces, now that Nanli Wang leads Nanli's troops across the river to the north, Ning'an and xuan'an are the main battlefields. Now the herds that we brought from Danshui are all in the South Valley of Ning'an, and we all know that the momentum of the animal tide is not as strong as before, but we are too small to deal with it. If there is a legion of troops behind the tide, even if they can't completely defeat the tide, they can drive the herd forward to break through the wall of the stone stockade at the mouth of the valley, so as to escape from the heaven. ”
Ye Zhiqiu pauses a little, looks at Meng Cang and Li Chang's face, and then continues to say, ”after attacking the herds, it's better to force the herds to flee to the mouth of the valley with speed. Marshal Lu will be able to see this. Then they think, which army in southern Xinjiang will be the one who is going to attack the Nannan Valley?”
”The wind force.” Meng Cang and Li Chang did not even want to blurt out.
The twelve main armies of Daqian are all excellent troops. Apart from the evergreen army, which is known as the first army in the world, the rest of the legions are ranked in no order. However, among the remaining 11 legions, the style of the other four legions is the most unique. The Panshi army is as immobile as a mountain, the Tianhuo army is as aggressive as fire, the fast wind army is as immobile as a mountain, and the badminton army is just like Xu Lulin.
Because of this style, the wind army is the fastest of the twelve legions, and it is also the most suitable one to attack. It is for this reason that in the past, among the four major legions in southern Xinjiang, the thunder army, the tiger roaring army and the Dragon army that was transferred to northern Xinjiang were the legions stationed in the forefront, and the fast wind army was more as a fast support force. If Lu wanted to use the fast war to force the beast tide forward, he would certainly use the fast wind army.
”Yes, the wind force.” Ye Zhiqiu nodded, looked up at the sky, his eyes flashed a trace of expectation.
