Chapter 519: Is There a "World War"? (a)
In fact, Lu Zhe was more puzzled, hundreds of thousands in this country, hundreds of thousands in that country, can a total of 1.37 million troops be piled up in such a place? At the same time, the army needs people to eat and chew horses, not how many people can be fierce, can the nations guarantee so much army food?
If it was like before when the countries brought up to 200,000 troops, Lu Zhe was really worried that a "world war" would break out in such a small place as Shen, but when he knew that the countries had at least 100,000 troops, and the maximum was 400,000, he was not so worried about what "world war" would break out.
It is obvious that fighting a war is not just about bringing people to fight hard, the greater the pressure on logistics and supplies the greater the number of troops, and it is easy to fight and shout at people to fight hard, but now the countries have the ability to pull such a long front, are they cautiously fighting a war that does not know when it will stop?
"What Lu Hou said makes sense, but ......" Zhang Liang invited Lu Zhe to go to the mountains and rivers on the left side of the big tent, and pointed to the location of Pengcheng: "The Qi State has been transporting grain and straw to Pengcheng for nearly half a year, and weapons, armor and other ordnance have not been cut off. β
Dare to love Qi State from Chu State after taking away part of Surabaya County and setting up Pei State, and he has been preparing for war? And the Qi State seems to have really developed quite well, while preparing for the battle of the Central Plains, there is still the spare strength to send grain and military equipment to Pengcheng, this is definitely not for the preparation of this alliance, it is thinking about expanding to the south early on!
"Sir, can you roughly estimate how long Pengcheng's grain and military equipment will be enough to support the 530,000 army?" When Lu Zhe heard that Qi was hoarding supplies in Pengcheng, how could he still think that Qi Guo was cautious and could not fight.
Shen is less than two hundred miles away from Pengcheng, and Wei Han has too few troops to prevent Qi, as long as Qi sends another 100,000 or so troops to attack from Peixian to the south, it will be absolutely difficult for Wei Han to defend the territory. As long as the road is opened, the materials hoarded in Pengcheng by the Qi State will be able to be transported to Shen, not to mention the continuous supply of the troops and materials of the Qi State itself.
Zhang Liang has obviously been closely following the movements of Qi State. Listening to Lu Zhe's question, he replied almost without thinking: "It should be able to maintain the supply of 500,000 troops for half a year." β
Can you speak foul language? If he could, Lu Zhe would like to scold the "grass mud Maragobi", it is difficult for Wei Han to pay attention to the movements of the Qi State across his territory, Wei Han obviously knew that the Qi State was hoarding war materials in Pengcheng for a long time!
Wei Han had long known that Qi had not informed Lu Zhe in preparing supplies, this was to trap Lu Zhe, if he had known the news a long time ago, Lu Zhe would definitely take Changsha County and accept it when he saw it, at most, he would pick the ripe "fruits" Minnan County and Nanhai County, how could he go to Lingnan.
"You ......" Lu Zhe is obviously unnecessary to care about those now. I can't blame it anymore, people didn't have the obligation to report it before, and now they have the obligation to exchange news only after the exchange of covenants, so they can only change their tone: "If a big war breaks out in the war, how can South Korea deal with itself?" β
Before, Lu Zhe and Kuai Tong and others speculated that Wei Han wanted to use this alliance to seduce the Qi army to invade, so that Lu Zhe could help them solve the threat from the Qi State, but they didn't expect that Wei Han did have such a plan, and at the same time, Wei Han was not needed to seduce the Qi army, and the Qi State had already made up its mind to swallow Wei Han's land before hoarding supplies in Pengcheng.
Qi would not be satisfied by hoarding so many supplies in Pengcheng, but only swallowed up the territory of Wei and Han. If it is enough to deal with Wei Han and Qi alone, it is enough to dispatch 200,000 troops, and if there are no external factors, the process will not drag on for long at most, after all, Wei Han's weakness is not rumored, it is really that weak. In Pengcheng, he hoarded an army of 500,000 men, enough for six months' worth of food and equipment. Qi Guo wants to try Lu Zhe's catties after swallowing Wei Han!
How does South Korea deal with itself? South Korea is too weak, so it can be said that it has no strength to deal with itself, otherwise it would not be Lu Zhe's protectorate, Zhang Liang opened his mouth and closed it again. can only respond with a wry smile.
Although I don't know what will happen, but things have come to this point, there is no need for Lu Zhe to hide: "If you let Han go to Nanyang County." If Wei formed an alliance, it would also be dealt with in the same way. How? β
There are now three forces entrenched in Nanyang County, which are not counted in the territory of any country, and Lu Zhe can clear the obstacles by dispatching 50,000 soldiers, if a "world war" really breaks out cautiously, whether it is Wei or South Korea, it will definitely not be able to withstand it.
Zhang Liang showed a surprised expression, and after the surprise, he was moved, and trembled and gave Lu Zhe a big gift: "Liang Dai my king thanks Lu Hou, this favor will never be thanked!" Finally, he bowed three times before standing up again.
It's a surprise, it's time to be excited, kneeling down and bowing three times is considered a small courtesy, after all, Lu Zhe is going to send an army to clear a county so that Wei Han has a land to settle down again, this is to continue Wei Han's national ancestry, what kind of kindness can be compared?
Later, Wei Bao came in a hurry, and after learning Lu Zhe's promise, he also knelt down and bowed, and when he worshipped, he also cried and cried, and finally asked a little stupidly: "Nanyang is too close to Qindi, if the Qin army comes to attack?" β
The Qin army is still attacking? When the Qin State has no brains! Once a big war broke out in Shen, Lu Zhe was about to be involved, at that time, it was not that the Qin State considered whether to attack Wei and Han, but stood aside while fighting the grassland Hu people and shouted for Qi, Yan, Wei, Han, Chu, and Zhao...... Of course, Lu Zhe is also indispensable, shouting "Come on!" at these rebels and traitors! "It's better to fight all out to the end, and the Qin State will concentrate on cleaning up the grassland Hu people, and then transfer the army to have another battle of unification.
If there is a real fight, Lu Zhe, Wei, and Han will definitely be in the same camp, and Qi and Yan are now on the same side, so I don't know how Zhao and Chu will choose. However, it is certain that as long as LΓΌ Zhe and Qi Yan go to war, there is the Lingnan Front and the Chenjun Front, when LΓΌ Zhe's forces are greatly involved, the Chu State will not mind taking advantage of LΓΌ Zhe's lack of strength to regain the lost territory.
What will Zhao Guo choose? Lu Zhe felt that the chances of Zhao Guo standing next to him and watching the scenery would be relatively large, while looking at the scenery while recovering the territory lost before, Qin State was desperate with the grassland Hu people, Qi, Yan, Chu and Lu Zhe, Wei, and Han were desperate, for a while, Zhao State had time to work hard, how could Zhao State not try to be a fisherman?
"This situation ......" The first action Lu Zhe made after sending Zhang Liang and Wei Bao away was to hold his head: "It's become a bit unprecedented!" β
Kuai Tong and Xiao He and the others immediately asked to see each other after the outsiders left, and when they came in, they saw Lu Zhe's face was unprecedentedly gloomy.
Lu Zhe gave a detailed introduction to the situation, and finally asked: "What is the probability that the situation in the world will become like that?" β
The crowd of people who listened to it were all stunned, how could they be able to answer for a while?
I don't know how long it was, but Kuaitong suddenly smiled and said, "Lord, the situation won't become like that, right?" β
"Oh?" Lu Zhe thought about the worst situation, and he really wanted to hear what good things Kuaitong could introduce.
"The Qin State wants us to fight to the death, and the Qin army that insists on the Guan Alliance is here to disrupt the situation." Kuaitong has always thought so, but he also agrees with Lu Zhe's statement that he can't stop him except for sending troops to fight. He paused, and after a while, as if to wait for everyone to calm down, he continued: "There is no doubt that the Qi State is hoarding supplies in Pengcheng and attacking Wei Han to take land, but it does not mean that the Qi State will continue to go south to wage war with us. β
Having captured Wei Han's current territory, the State of Qi will indeed border with Lu Zhe, but it is only a border, their biggest enemy is the State of Qin, in the State of Qin has not perished or suffered the greatest weakening, and the State of Qi will provoke the not weak Lu Zhe is obviously a strong enemy, if you want to say that the State of Qi is sure to destroy Lu Zhe in a battle, it obviously doesn't matter if you provoke it or not, but does Lu Zhe seem to be a force that can be destroyed in one battle?
Even if Qi, Yan, and Chu jointly attacked, at most, it would compress Lu Zhe back into a force that only had the three counties of Nanjun, Hengshan County, and Cangwu County, after all, Lu Zhe was a turtle and couldn't attack it, but relying on the defense line of the three counties, under the rule of five million people, most of the people were concentrated in the above three counties, Lu Zhe's dead defense was not something that Qi, Yan, and Chu could destroy if they wanted to.
"The Lord's commitment to destroying most of the population of Ouyue, Minyue, and Nanyue first is a good move, and if there is really a bad situation in which the three families of Qi, Yan, and Chu jointly attack us, at most they will give up the southern expedition. Baiyue, which has lost a large number of people, can no longer pose a big threat to us, so the so-called southern, northern, and eastern three-line attacks will no longer exist. Kuaitong laughed softly a few times, and then said: "The Chu State attacked us to recover the lost territory, and the Qi State may also be able to grab some territory, what can the Yan State get?" Furthermore, even if we lose the land, who did we snatch the territory from, isn't it Chudi, Qi State robbed Chudi, can Chu State give up? How long will their alliance last? β
The expression on Lu Zhe's face slowly changed from "stormy" to "cloudy", and finally from "cloudy" to "cloudy", and soon it will be "cloudy and sunny".
"So......" If Kuaitong picks up the gourd and drinks wine without saying a few words, he will definitely be more military teacher, and it looks much more reliable. He wiped the wine marks from the corners of his mouth: "So the worst result is that we stick to the three counties and wait for Qi, Yan, and Chu to fight back after infighting." "I hiccuped, "Maybe when the time comes, we will be able to wipe out the great disaster of the Chu State in one fell swoop, and we will be able to completely take Donghai County and Surabaya County into our pockets." β
Why didn't Lu Zhe find out that Kuaitong had such wisdom before? He used to think that Kuaitong could more or less mention some government affairs or military construction, but now it seems that it is ...... Kuaitong, the drunkard's strategic vision and ability to analyze the situation, are very strong!? (To be continued......)
