"If only we could build a ship in Lanzhou and then go downstream...... Even if it's a raft! Jiang Erlang also had a bit of an occupational disease, remembering his position as commander of the navy, and would rather take the water route than the land route.

"You can return to Yingli City first, transfer camels from Ganliang Road, and then take the north road to overcome the pass of the Right Wing Chaoshun Military Division, and approach Xingqing Mansion directly from the northwest of Helan Mountain, and at the same time cut off the passage for the Western Xia people to go north."

Wang Hou was more conservative, he felt that the east and west roads were not very safe, anyway, the imperial court did not give a time limit to conquer Xingqing Mansion, and would rather slow down than take risks, so he proposed a third way.

"That's too slow, it takes two or three months to go back and forth, and you have to cross the winter desert, and you don't have a particularly familiar guide, and a strong wind is not much better than a flood."

Shi Tong is a straight person, he doesn't care about Wang Hou's identity and official position at all, and he must oppose anything that is unreasonable. Walking in the desert can indeed avoid water, but the desert has the danger of the desert, so don't mess around if you don't understand! It is estimated that he couldn't get mixed up in the forbidden army back then, because of his personality.

"My lord will give me a thousand marines, and use sheepskin rafts to go down the river and occupy this section of the river bank first, to prevent the enemy from digging the embankment, and then the army can pass through the ancient river channel?"

Xiao Zuna has been playing the Marine Corps all these years, and has more ideas about this situation. Moreover, he came from Liao, and knew more about the special river crossing tool of sheepskin rafts, and proposed a more feasible solution.

"It's feasible, but it's too small to hold out for too long. The Tanguts also had thunderbolts, and if they were well prepared in advance, it would not take long to dig the riverbank. How can you deal with the impact of tens of thousands or even tens of thousands of cavalry? ”

Xiao Wuna's method is indeed somewhat constructive, but such a small number of people may not be able to hold the riverbank. In the event of defeat, it will not only be a thousand marines that will be lost, but also the large army that is rushing in the ancient river will still be flooded by the Seventh Army.

"I think it can be like this, let's go both on land and water. General Xiao led 1,000 marines to set off from the waterway first, and Wang Da took 2,000 light horsemen to take the ancient river channel. After your side succeeded, the second group of light cavalry will be reinforced. Let's have a refueling tactic, as long as the large army is not damaged, the Tangut people will not achieve their goal. ”

Now that it is necessary to take risks, Hong Tao can't think of any perfect way to deal with it, so he can only find a way to minimize the loss. Where are there immortal people in war, this sentence is very suitable for use at present, and no matter how unbearable I am, I have to send out my capable generals.

Everyone has no objection to Hong Tao's arrangement, this is probably the safest way at present, and there will be a loss of two or three thousand people if the sky is broken. It seems that the Tanguts have no intention of breaking to stop them, what they want to drown is the entire new army, and failing to achieve this goal is equivalent to digging their own graves.

The new army was able to choose to attack Xingqing Mansion from other directions, and two months later could not change the outcome, and they trapped themselves to death, with nowhere to run, and the surrounding area was full of flooded areas.

"It's not appropriate to let Wang Da take the lead, it's more appropriate for the forward group to go. Naturally, the forward regiment had to rush to the front, and my men were all sailors, and there were many strong winds and waves, and the flood was not too big. Besides, I'm Wang Da's uncle, and her children are not yet adults, so they need to be mothers. I should have enough money in my life a long time ago, all these years have been earned for nothing, I hope adults can do it! ”

Only Jiang Erlang was dissatisfied with Hong Tao's arrangement, not only did he say it, but he also knelt on one knee and strongly demanded that the generals who led the troops to attack be replaced. Candidate, he did not avoid relatives and recommended himself.

"General Jiang, this is not the Horse Mansion, how can you talk about seniority in the army!" Before Hong Tao could say anything, Wang Daxian was in a hurry, and the old man with a face pulled. What annoys her the most is to use women and young age as an excuse, that is, Jiang Erlang said that she has no right to deal with it, and she has been replaced by someone else's early military law.

"What your second uncle said makes sense, his soldiers are proficient in water, which is something that this king has missed. Come on, the first batch of light cavalry is led by General Jiang, boss, you lead the Chinese army to suppress the formation, and this king will lead the second batch! ”

Why did Jiang Erlang suddenly jump out to grab the task Hong Tao felt it, this was repaying his kindness and repaying his kindness. If he didn't take his life, he probably wouldn't be able to find another opportunity in his life.

Like the Wasp, he adheres to the traditional etiquette thinking, but he is not as expressive as the ministers of the DPRK and China, and prefers to replace it with actions. Many times, those who say it are often not necessarily agreed with in their hearts, and they can't say it on the contrary, but they can be more consistent.

However, Jiang Erlang has one thing to the point, Wang Da should not lose his life early, they are the future and the fire. I'm just a fire breaker that ignites the fire, or the kind that is about to burn out, the mission has been completed, and if it is extinguished, it will be extinguished, there is no pity.

To be honest, since he met Miao Kui and Zhou Yiri, and knew what they were doing in Sichuan, Hong Tao had a feeling of losing his strength, as if he couldn't keep up with them.

Wang Shi and Monday are a bit bold, but without this boldness, it is impossible to develop so quickly in Sichuan. The most important thing is that they have figured it out before and after, and have also made arrangements to deal with several different changes, and the results are no worse than their own layout ability.

Their advantage is only the grasp of the historical context and the strange skills in their heads, but in terms of courage, courage and tenacity, they are really inferior to them.

Now that they have mastered enough, the science and technology are on track, as long as they slowly understand and develop enough to meet the needs of this era, it is actually no different whether they are pointing fingers on the side or not.

And their own existence may be a kind of suppression for them, and there will be conflicts in the future. Sooner or later, you have to die, and instead of dying in bed, it is better to be a hero and leave a good name. Like wasps, there are people who pay tribute and some people worship.

"Uncle can't, you are the commander of the first army, if you really want to go, the little nephew is willing to go!" How else to say that King Qi is still young, he can't hold his face, and seeing that King Liang is going to risk himself, regardless of true or false, he also stands up and wants to talk about love and righteousness.

"Don't say anything about it, Old Seven, your artillery and new regiments are at the end, raise the hot air balloon and see the signal before entering the ancient river channel. General Xiao go and prepare, and General Jiang will go out in a quarter of an hour after you go into the water. Come, to the table below. ”

Hong Tao originally wanted to take this opportunity to educate Zhao Maid, I don't know what your identity is, who are we busy for a long time? and followed the blind coaxing. But think about it, alas, they are all adults, it's not that the little kids of the year can be trained casually, so don't you.

At this time, the tens of thousands of Xixia herdsmen who followed behind became good helpers, they had cattle and sheep, whether they were really willing to take them out was another matter, anyway, the work of building sheepskin rafts with their participation made rapid progress.

Just after two o'clock in the middle of the night, Xiao Wuna's marines got on the rafts, gave up all their supplies and clothing, and replaced them with bullets and spare guns, and a thousand men were divided into more than a hundred sheepskin rafts, and every ten rafts were grouped together and floated downstream along the river.

Fifteen minutes later, Jiang Erlang also set out on the road as scheduled with two thousand light cavalry with the same equipment, less than twenty miles away, and could arrive in about forty minutes.

Not long after, the lookout post on the hot air balloon found that there was a rocket rising in the east, and it seemed that Hong Tao had guessed correctly, Xiao Wuna and Jiang Erlang would not send a signal if they did not encounter an enemy situation, or a major enemy situation.

"Boss, the last thing my father is afraid of in this life is water, the sea has nothing to do with me, this little river water is not a problem at all. Even if your father is gone, don't panic, you know what to do, if you don't understand, ask the second and tenth, as well as Mrs. Zhou and Mrs. Ji. In the future, you will be the eldest sister in the family, think more about everything, and stabilize your position before you can deal with outsiders. ”

At this time, Hong Tao felt that he could really compare with Zhuge Liang. What is called an exhaustive strategy, that is, it is better than others.

As for saying that Wang Da is still reluctant to pull the reins, it is useless to say more, it is just an ordinary tactical assault, why bother to make life and death. I don't have any other skills in these lives, but I still have the courage to face life and death.
