Chapter 298: Li Yan's thoughts

A second โ˜… of small โ–ณ said ยง net.. Org], wonderful free reading without pop-ups!

Zhu Jie led the army to slowly advance towards Guide Mansion, and seemed to have forgotten the principle of such a soldier as the soldier Gui Shensu; However, Li Yan, who has retreated back to Defu, will definitely not sit still.

Guide Mansion is not as tall as the wall of Luoyang Mansion, nor is it as populous as Kaifeng Mansion, and it is located in a corner of Henan.

However, it is precisely because of the existence of the Grand Canal that he was selected by Li Yan, which is definitely a treasure for Li Yan, but at this time, Li Yan suddenly discovered a fatal flaw in his strategy - that is, such an important strategic location, it is impossible for the Ming army to give up, and it will definitely mobilize a large army for siege, because Zhu Jie is not a fool, and will never allow others to threaten the Grand Canal, which is the lifeblood of the Ming Dynasty!

If you can say that you can move the king and stay all the remaining troops in Guide Mansion, then you can also use strong forces to stabilize this territory, and then attack Jiangnan, threaten Cao Yun, and be invincible, but now, there are only 10,000 troops under your command, and most of them are non-main forces of the Raid Army, how can you keep Guide Mansion? On the other side is the elite of the Ming army led by Zhu Jie himself! I don't have enough strength to hold this place myself!

Just think of a child with a thousand taels of gold in his hand, it seems that the small life is comfortable, but many adults around are eyeing each other, and the small day will not be able to live, a little careless, not only the gold will be snatched away, and even the small life is difficult to guarantee!

Withdraw troops and abandon Takfu? Enter Chenzhou and join the king of Nanyang?

Doesn't that mean that your strategy has failed? Then this blow is not small for himself, there are more generals who do not deal with him in the camp, I am afraid that they will use this opportunity to attack themselves, they will definitely not let go of such an opportunity!

Stick to the Guide? It's just that it can't be defended at all, it's not that Li Yan is arrogant, but the strength of the main elite of the Ming army is far superior to the invasion army, even if there are only 10,000 people, it can easily cope with the attack of 30,000 troops of the invasion army, if you launch an attack towards Guide Mansion, it will not be able to last for a long time!

Attack Xuzhou? Or even attack Suzhou and Fengyang to the south? It's not impossible, but, in this case, without a stable rear, his 10,000 people will be completely reduced to thieves, and the most important strategy he gave to King Chuang at the beginning was to establish a solid rear and lay a solid foundation, but now he is going to be a thief? It's really ridiculous, it's impossible at all, the entire Nanzhili still has a strong army, and it's definitely not that his own 10,000 troops can run rampant in Nanzhili, there is only one ending waiting for him, that is, downfall!

"Xianggong, next, how do we defend the Guide Mansion?"

The red lady asked.

Li Yan shook his head and replied: "It's hard to say, I really didn't expect that the Ming army would go so smoothly and cross the Dasha River, without leaving us the slightest time to prepare, whether I can hold on to Guide, I am not sure at all now......"

"Then we will retreat east and enter Shandong?"

The red lady asked.

Song Tianxing, who was on the side, smiled bitterly and said, "Madam, enter Shandong?" Then aren't we getting farther and farther away from King Chuang, hanging thousands of miles away, enemies on all sides, I'm afraid that without Zhu Jie's hands, just Shandong's troops, we can be surrounded and annihilated, and choose to enter Shandong, it is better to retreat towards Chenzhou, at least Chenzhou and Nanyang are still in our hands for the time being, retreat into Chenzhou, we can echo with King Chuang, and even if we can't support it, we can retreat into Huguang and go back to our old nest to start again......"

Li Yan nodded and replied: "Tianxing is right, it is much better to retreat into Chenzhou than to enter Shandong, but if we enter Chenzhou, it does not mean that we will be able to return to Huguang, you know, now the main force of the Ming army is already attacking the Nanyang area, and when we enter Chenzhou, I am afraid that a large area of land in Nanyang will also fall into the hands of the Ming army. I'm afraid that we will die more ugly, compared to Zhu Jie and Xu Yifan, I would rather face ten Xu Zeqing, Shandong soldiers are a group of rabble! โ€

This one......

Song Tianxing was puzzled: "So, General, you still have to retreat into Shandong and attack Jining Mansion?" โ€

"No, don't attack Jining Mansion!"

Li Yan replied: "What you just said is right, if you can't hold on to morality, then Jining will be even more unfortunate, that's a real strategic point, we don't have the slightest chance, for today's plan, we want to get out safely, we can only go to the southeast, enter the territory of Anhui, attack Bozhou and Fengyang, and advance from Fengyang to the hinterland of Nanzhili!" โ€

Song Tianxing and the Red Lady were shocked, they didn't expect that Li Yan would choose such a direction, Bozhou doesn't matter, but Fengyang is different, that is where the ancestral mausoleum of the Ming Dynasty is located, if the attack on Jining will be besieged, then the attack on Fengyang will cause the world to be angry, Chongzhen will never allow his ancestors' mausoleum to fall into, but I am afraid that he will mobilize more than 100,000 troops from Nanzhili to besiege him!

"General, let's go to Fengyang, it's better to go to Jining, at least to Jining, we can use the complex terrain of the local Weishan Lake to deal with the Ming army, but when we get to Fengyang, we will dig up the ancestral grave of the Dog Emperor, it is really a dead end......"

Li Yan replied firmly: "No, only by attacking Fengyang, we will have a way to live, once we attack Fengyang, then the entire Nanzhili and even the whole world will be shaken, when the time comes, the troops of each town will move towards Fengyang, at least the king will become safe, although Nanzhili has a lot of troops, but in addition to Huang Degong's town troops, in the absence of a strong force, we can instead throw off the main force of the Ming army, and seek a chance in Nanzhili, you know, Zhu Jie, as the governor of Henan, led the elite of Gyeonggi, It is impossible to go too deep into the Jianghuai region, once there is a change in the north, it will be impossible to return to the capital at that time! I have made up my mind, if Guide cannot hold on, then we will lead the army south to Bozhou and advance towards Fengyang through Bozhou! Once the garrisons from all over Nanzhili gallop to the aid of Fengyang, we can lead the main force from Fengyang to the southwest, enter the Dabie Mountain, and cross the Dabie Mountain, we can enter the territory of Huguang, and when the time comes, it will be time for us to join the king of Chuang! โ€
