Chapter 990: Shi Yuan's Guess
Just when Baihua and Shen Wei were worried about Shi Yuan in Yangzhou, Shi Yuan was also worried about the situation in Yangzhou City and their safety.
Although the situation in Yangzhou City had been carefully arranged when he was leaving, the Beiqing army came too suddenly, and they went directly to Yangzhou City...... It made him a little worried about what might happen.
"Brother Shi, you mean that they will camp under Yangzhou City? This is a bit too arrogant, right? After hearing Shi Yuan's words, Qiao Cannon frowned and asked.
"That's it! If they lead their troops to attack while they have not yet set up camp...... They're going to be hard to deal with, right? Ruri also nodded in response.
Shi Yuan heard this, and sighed a little weakly, "It's true, it's true, but things are definitely not so easy." Since you can think of Liuli, they must have thought of it if they were afraid of the flowers in the city, but ...... I don't want that. ”
"Why?" Liuli is a little puzzled.
"Because now isn't the best time to sneak attack!" Shi Yuan opened his mouth and said: "Since these people are only the vanguard of Beiqing, it means that their action this time is very hasty, and the grain and grass troops we are going to sneak attack must also act together with the troops...... If Yue Fei and the others sneak attack now, although they may win because of Beiqing's surprise, they will definitely attract Beiqing's attention, so ...... We're going to have a lot of trouble doing it. ”
Hearing Shi Yuan say this, Liuli and Qiao Cannon fell silent. Indeed, as Shi Yuan said, if Beiqing causes vigilance, they will not be able to cut off their reserves...... In other words, this operation will be completely meaningless.
Seeing that after he finished speaking, the atmosphere suddenly became serious. Shi Yuan turned to laugh instead, "Things may not be so bad!" This is nothing more than my guess...... I believe that Baihua and Shen Wei will also notice this. Let's think about our current situation. ”
After Shi Yuan finished speaking, he turned to look at Qiao Cannon, "Brother Qiao, when do you think the reserve grain and grass team of the Beiqing army will land?" ”
Qiao Cannon has finally recovered a few points, and now things are one after another, if all of them have to be resolved...... It's a little too much trouble. Frowning and thinking for a moment, he replied, "I guess...... Although the situation has changed now, the grain and grass team of the Beiqing army is definitely still at the end. ”
After Shi Yuan heard it, he didn't answer directly, and after thinking about it for a while, he shook his head at Qiao Cannon, "I think, I'm afraid it's not like that." ”
"Oh? What do you think will happen to Brother Shi? "For a long time, Shi Yuan has directly asked Qiao Cannon or others about the march. So now that he heard him talk about it, Qiao Cannon couldn't help but be curious.
"Brother Qiao, let me ask you, if there is really an emergency in Northern Xinjiang, if you are the second prince of Beiqing, what method will you choose to attack Jiangnan?" Shi Yuan didn't answer directly, but asked Qiao Cannon rhetorically.
Qiao Cannon thought for a moment, and then replied: "If I were the second prince, I would probably give up the idea of attacking Nanqing and instead lead my troops north to drive out the Huns." ”
Shi Yuan rolled his eyes angrily, "I said Brother Qiao, I just said that if you were the second prince, you wouldn't have directly regarded yourself as the emperor of Beiqing, right?" ”
Qiao Cannon was a little too involved in the play, and smiled embarrassedly, "This...... Brother Shi, don't be embarrassed for me, you better just tell me what you think! ”
"That's it! Talking about something all day long, it's mysterious......" Liuli should also nod and say with Qiao Cannon.
Hearing the words of the two, Shi Yuan nodded helplessly and said his thoughts: "I heard Brother Qiao say before that this second prince of Beiqing is a military wizard. If Nanqing hadn't had the Yangtze River, he would have unified Daqing a long time ago...... In other words, Nanqing did not have the strength to fight at all. But even so, if he wants to completely take the entire Jiangnan land, it will take the best few months, right? ”
"That's true, yes." Qiao Cannon didn't quite understand what Shi Yuan meant by these words, but he still nodded in agreement.
"In that case. So can we make a bold speculation - as long as the Beiqing army takes Yangzhou and Jinling, does it mean that the entire Jiangnan has been mastered? Shi Yuan said endlessly.
Qiao Cannon was stunned by his words, and only after a long time did he nod, "Although it is a bit exaggerated to say this, it is true." ”
In fact, when Shi Yuan said this, Qiao Cannon also understood what he meant: Shi Yuan thought that the purpose of Beiqing crossing the river this time was to take Yangzhou and Jinling, and then turn around and go north, and after pacifying the Huns, he would start to clean up the entire Jiangnan!
I have to say that if the northern Xinjiang is really in an emergency, this is indeed a way to get the best of both worlds. And judging from the reaction of the Beiqing army now, it seems that this is indeed the case...... Taking Yangzhou and Jinling ensured the guarantee that Beiqing would cross the river in the future. As for the rest of the Jiangnan land, it is completely in the bag.
"If you look at Nanqing's situation now, it basically exists in name only. With this method, if it goes well, it can even recover the entire Nanqing Army. Time to ...... You can deal with the Huns on the one hand, and pacify Jiangnan on the other! ”
In the past few days, Qiao Cannon and others have regarded the three armies of Nanqing as a force owned by Shi Yuan. The interval between them even made them completely forget the situation before the Nanqing Third Army...... It wasn't until now that Shi Yuan said this hypothesis that Qiao Cannon and Liuli reacted: If Shi Yuan hadn't come to Yangzhou and then sorted out the three armies of Nanqing, this was completely possible!
Thinking of this, Qiao Cannon swallowed a mouthful of saliva: "The ambition of this second prince is really big enough." ”
Shi Yuan also nodded, "So I feel that this time the Beiqing army is only afraid that they did not bring grain and grass!" ”
"Huh? So what to say...... Haven't we just run away in vain? After listening to Shi Yuan's analysis, Qiao Cannon was a little panicked.
Shi Yuan smiled and shook his head, "Not necessarily!" That's just my guess. And even if the speculation is true, it is based on the premise that the Beiqing army can quickly take Yangzhou. And now...... Brother Qiao, how long do you think it will take for the Beiqing army to take Yangzhou City? ”
"This ...... I'm really hard to say. However, in a short period of time, they are afraid that they will not be able to take Yangzhou, Brother Shi, aren't you ready to stalemate with the Beiqing army? ”
