Chapter 265: Change of Strategy

Ma Xiangnan said very politely, in his mouth, Mo Luo's defeat seemed to be imminent and inevitable, which made most of the generals in the big tent furious, many of them were scolding, and the temper was even worse, and they even directly pulled out their knives and scolded and were about to rush out. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

There was a commotion in the big tent, but Ma Xiangnan sneered and squinted at these people, unmoved.

"Okay, let's be quiet, the king hasn't spoken, what are you yelling about?" Wu Xin stood up and glared angrily at the generals in the big tent, he was angry, but the big tent was quiet. looked at Ma Xiangnan is eyelids jumped wildly, this Wu Xin, in the Shuntian Army, has a very high prestige!

Wu Xin's prestige is indeed very high, because almost all of the troops that the Shuntian Army now has combat effectiveness have been trained by him. Most of the generals were also raised by him.

As soon as Wu Xin became angry, the tent was immediately quiet, not only Ma Xiangnan's eyelids jumped wildly, but there were also a few people in the big tent, who also showed a sneer, but only Mo Luo, his eyelids were half drooping, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

"Master Ma, just say it directly, as you said, we are indeed facing a crisis now, if we can't defeat Shayang County, our logistics will collapse, and the king is also worried about this matter, if you come here, just with one mouth, it will not change the dilemma we are facing, then don't waste our time." Wu Xin said sharply: "The king should listen to substantive and constructive opinions, not empty words. ”

"Okay, since General Wu understands it, then Ma is no longer hiding." Ma Xiangnan turned his head to look at Mo Luo: "If the king is willing to form an alliance with my Great Chu, we naturally have a way to solve the dilemma that the king is currently facing." ”

"What's the solution?" Moro asked coldly.

"We will provide the king with a large amount of food." Ma Xiangnan smiled. "I heard that the king once went out to sea by boat, so do you know Baoqing County in Changyang County?"

"Baoqing?" Mo Luo sat down suddenly, "You mean, you Da Chu will provide me with food and grass through the waterway?" ”

"Not bad." Ma Xiangnan smiled and looked at Mo Luo, who suddenly came to the spirit: "Baoqing, many years ago, it was a once prosperous foreign port, but unfortunately, with the subversion of the Tang Dynasty, this continent fell into civil strife, this port was gradually abandoned, and finally submerged in the dust of history, and now, there are probably not many people who still know this port." ”

"You Chu people are really heart-warming people, and you can even figure this out." Morrow sneered.

Ma Xiangnan laughed: "Our Da Chu wants to help the king, and it really took a lot of thought. What does the king think? ”

Moro pondered for a moment, "What do you want?" ”

"Please hand over this port to our Great Chu for management, and within fifty miles of the port, it will be under the jurisdiction of our Great Chu." Horse to the south.

"It's not going to work!" Wu Xin jumped up suddenly.

"Why not?" Ma Xiangnan smiled and turned his head to look at Wu Xin, "General Wu, now this port is completely a dilapidated place, and slightly larger ships can't dock at all, only we know how to renovate this place." In the future, we will have to provide support to your army for a long time, it is impossible to do so by land, so we can only rely on water, in this case, we must have a ship-repairing factory here, and if we build a ship-repair yard, we must have an army to protect the shipyard, as far as we know, Changyang County is not peaceful, even now, it is full of bandits. ”

"We can provide protection!" Wu Xin said.

"I'm sorry, the shipyard is one of the core secrets of our Great Chu, and it is impossible for us to hand over his security to outsiders, because it is very likely to leak secrets." Ma Xiangnan shook his head and said, "King, we only want jurisdiction within fifty miles of the port, this will not have any impact on the authority of the king, you won't give up food because of choking, right?" ”

Mo Luo looked at Wu Xin, who still wanted to speak, and waved his hand, "Okay, okay, old Wu, isn't it fifty miles, for you." But I want to know, when will your first grain arrive? ”

"If the king wishes, in a month's time, you will be able to see the first grain unloaded from there." Ma Xiangnan bowed slightly and said.

"Good!" Mo Luo clasped his palms together, "I'll wait for a month, Master Ma, you Da Chu will not support me in vain, what do you want in the end?" ”

"There is no need to hide this from the king, presumably the king also knows that our Great Chu and Qi are already tense on both sides, and a big war may break out at any time, once this big war breaks out, I am afraid that the final outcome will inevitably be at the cost of the destruction of one party. In this great battle for the fortunes of our country, we need to unite all the forces that we can unite. Therefore, we hope that the king can take Shayang County and then launch an attack on the area controlled by the Qi people. Restraining the power of the Qi people, if the king can really do that, then what gets off the ship from Baoqing is not just food, but what the king wants, we will transport. Ma Xiangnan raised his head with a smile and said proudly: "Our Dachu is not only strong and strong, but also rich in the world, we can do it if we can say it." ”

Mo Luo laughed, "That's the truth, we do have a common goal in fighting the Qi people, at least, we can be allies until we drive the Qi people out of our Dayue territory." ”

"That's true!" Ma Xiangnan also laughed.

Ma Xiangnan got what he wanted, of course, this is just the first step for Da Chu to take to the Yue Kingdom, rice, always have to be eaten one bite at a time, with Baoqing as a springboard, with Mo Luo as an ally, soon, Da Chu will have its own base in Changyang County, at that time, it is the beginning of Chu to open up the second battlefield of alignment.

"The King." There were only Mo Luo and Wu Xin, Li Han, and Bao Hua left in the big tent, and Wu Xin finally couldn't help it.

"Okay, Old Wu, I know what you want to say, but do we have any other way now? As the man with the surname Ma said, we are short of food, and we need food. I know that they don't have a good heart to Baoqing, but it's just a poor county in the middle of nowhere, even if it all is given to them, what's the matter, I got food and weapons from them, and it's not up to us to decide what to do when the time comes. Moro waved his hand.

"I just want to remind the king that he must be vigilant against them." Wu Xin said, "For us, Qi people are not things, but Chu people, how can they be good people?" ”

"I know this without you saying it!" Mo Luo said with some dissatisfaction: "Old Wu, at the moment, Shayang County City can't be attacked for a long time, you should come up with a good idea!" ”

"King!" Wu Xin sensed Mo Luo's dissatisfaction, so he could only swallow the topic back, "If the grain of the Chu people can arrive on time, we can change the way we attack the county town of Shayang." ”

"A different way?"

"Yes, since the logistics are safe, why do we have to take the seat of Shayang County in such a hurry in a short time?" Wu Xin said with a smile: "Now we can consume it with them, no matter how rich their reserves are in the city, can they still eat them all the time?" ”

"Brother Wu, what do you mean by this?" Li Han asked.

"King, we are outside the city, they are inside the city, we can grow grain outside the city, can they plant in the city?" Wu Xin laughed hesitantly: "In the past few days, I have been thinking, why does Old Lady Liu in Shayang County have such confidence to dare to consume with us, isn't it because he knows that we are short of food, but he has enough food?" ”

"Now it's reversed!" Li Han suddenly realized.

"Yes, the king, we have hundreds of thousands of people now, but it is too wasteful for these hundreds of thousands of people to be under the city wall, it is spring now, it is a good season for spring sowing, we leave enough manpower to besiege the city, and fight with Shayang County every once in a while, and the rest of the people, all let them go to Tuntian, to grow grain." Wu Xin laughed and said: "Every once in a while, we will change a group of people to attack the city, and we can also train troops, I want to see how long this Shayang County can resist?" ”

"If they can carry it for a year, will we wait here for a year?" Moro asked, somewhat dissatisfied.

"What's the point of waiting a year?" Wu Xin said: "King, think about it from another angle, this year, how many more soldiers can you recruit and fight?" In one year, we can train at least 100,000 soldiers, and there is Shayang, a place where they can practice with real knives and guns, so why not? ”

"What if the Yue Ting sends a large army to help?" Bao Hua asked.

"Will they? They won't. They wish Shayang County would be defeated by us! Wu Xin sneered: "Those big people all regard Shayang County as a piece of fat, everyone wants to come and take a bite, just watch us and Shayang County lose both, and when they react, our climate has become a success, and we are not afraid of whoever comes at that time." ”

"Tuntian? It's a great idea! Mo Luo nodded again and again: "This Shayang County is a good place, the land is fertile, and you can wait for the harvest by sowing seeds, ha, it is much better than Changyang County." Well, Lao Wu, this matter is very important, and you have to be responsible for doing it to me. ”

"Me?" Wu Xin was taken aback, "Wang, I went to Tuntian, what about military training?" ”

"Li Han and Bao Hua have been learning from you for so long, it's time to let them practice, besides, aren't there many court officers who have surrendered to us, these people, if they have been idle, I am afraid they will be resentful, and if there is a repetition, we have to let them know that our Shuntian Army attaches great importance to them, isn't it? Hahaha! Mo Luo looked at Wu Xin and said with a smile. (To be continued.) )
