Chapter 439 Dilemma
Due to Liu Kun's recruitment order, the people of Jiankang were filled with resentment. After returning to Liyang, after a night of hard thinking, Huan Wen came up with a method that was roughly similar to Liu Kun's worries, which was to use feints or fire ships to consume Liu Kun's forces.
Ship, so he couldn’t wait to see Yunfeng early the next morning and expressed his thoughts.
Yunfeng frowned just now, but before he could make up his mind, Yu Wenjun immediately shouted: "How many people will die? Let's go down the river. There is no need for anyone on the fireboat, but Liu Kun cannot do that. His fireboat must
Some people, not to mention the cruel method of implicating others, made no soldiers in Wu County dare to jump into the water to escape.
Although the soldiers of Wu County are temporarily enemies, they are here under pressure. They will all be Qin people in the future, and they are very innocent. Huan Wen, can you bear to watch them burn to death in vain? Their parents, wives and children have lost their relatives.
Wenjun can imagine the grief without even guessing! Could it be that you don’t have any sympathy at all?"
"This" was slapped with a big label, Huan Wen couldn't help but look embarrassed, and after a long time he said: "Sister Wenjun, what you said makes sense, but how can there be immortality when leading an army in battle? We have to win again.
The enemy must try to avoid casualties as much as possible, and I’m afraid Sun Wu, Li Mu and other gods of war are reborn, and they won’t be able to do that, right?”
But Yu Wenjun raised his head, glanced at Huan Wen with great disdain, and said proudly: "Wenjun has already thought about it for you. You see, Liu Kun relies on the beacon on the south bank of the river to convey the message.
If the beacon is gone, how will he deliver it? General, why don't you send your elite troops to attack at night to capture the beacon, and then set off with the army immediately. I'm afraid Liu Kun won't know about it until they get to Stone City!" [
Yunfeng still did not express his opinion and turned his attention to Huan Wen.
Huan Wen understood that this was Yunfeng testing himself, and even the suggestion put forward by Yu Wenjun was discussed by the two of them on the bedside last night. If they could not analyze the pros and cons, it is conceivable that he would be regarded as a capable person. Maybe.
Because of his father's relationship, he can still be an official, but he will probably never be reused again. After all, the current passive situation of the entire army is inseparable from his own negligence.
Regarding the future political future and the rise and fall of his family, Huan Wen did not dare to be hasty at all. He started thinking quickly. After a while, he confidently handed over his hand: "Wen thought it was too risky to attack the beacon. It is more than a hundred miles from Gushu to Jiankang."
There are more than twenty beacons on the road. It is not difficult to take down the beacons. The number of troops stationed at each beacon does not exceed a hundred people. The difficulty is how to take down the beacons in front of the warning. As long as one of them goes wrong, all previous efforts will be wasted!
Another way is for the naval warships to sail as close to the north bank as possible at night. However, it is impossible for Liu Kun not to leave a boat on the river to patrol. Once his sentinel boat bursts into flames, the beacon will immediately warn me. Not to mention me.
The warships are limited, and it would not only be laborious and time-consuming to drive away Liu Kun's sentry ships, but also very likely to be trapped in the siege of his fireships. Therefore, it is not feasible to sneak into Jiankang in a clever way."
"So the only way is to use fire ships to attack each other?" Yunfeng neither said yes nor no, but asked rhetorically.
This made Huan Wen feel confused. He felt that there was something in Yunfeng's words. He quickly thought about whether there were any loopholes in his statement.
At this moment, Wang Gui hurriedly walked into the palace and saluted: "Your Majesty, according to the news from the brothers in the south of the Yangtze River, since yesterday, Liu Kun began to forcefully recruit civilian ships. Now, there are a lot of complaints in Jiankang. According to the end of the general
Look, Liu Kun may have tasted the benefits."
"Huh!" Xun Guanniang couldn't help but snorted angrily: "Since Sun Quan, the lord of Wu, established his capital in Jiankang, in the past hundred years, the government has never openly robbed people of wealth. Liu Kun is really desperate!"
Yu Wenjun also followed: "I'm afraid Liu Kun has guessed that our army may use fire ships to attack, so he has to prepare more ships. And how many ships do we have here? Not even a thousand.
How can you beat him? If they are all burned down, there will be no ships to transport troops to Jiankang.
The news of Jingzhou's surrender just came three days ago. It will probably take some time until General Deng from Jiangzhou leads his boat down the river. Is it going to be wasted? As the saying goes, things will change if you delay. The longer the delay, Liu Kun's
The more prepared you are, according to Mr. Wen, although attacking the beacon is more risky, it is the only feasible solution at the moment!"
Su Jun, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly raised his hand and said, "King Qin, as Ru Jun expected, the master may have taken the initiative to attack Liyang Water Village, so he wanted to collect more ships. Just imagine, thousands of
A swarm of fireships rushed in, and our army
How many can be sunk by the remaining seventy warships alone? Even if the two hundred ships from Haimen are mobilized in time, it is not enough, and they may even be attacked by fire ships halfway. Therefore, if Master really wants to attack,
This cold water is probably dangerous!"
As Liu Kun's most valued disciple, Su Jun naturally knew Liu Kun better than everyone present. His guess was considered very likely by everyone.
"Damn!" Yunfeng laughed and scolded: "Could this suicide attack have no way of defeating him? Who came up with this ghost idea? When Wang Ruilou's boat sailed to Yizhou, if Sun Hao, the leader of Wu, had also used this trick, the war might have ended.
Reversal! The situation in the world will be different again!"
Everyone smiled bitterly. The dozens of miles of river were really like a natural chasm, making it difficult for the army north of the river to cross. The Qin army in the south of the Yangtze could only temporarily huddle in their strongholds and could not take the initiative to attack Jiang Chengshuihan. The key was
The number is still too small. Currently, there are only 10,000 garrison troops in Stone City, 17,000 Zeng Daniu troops in Baidang Lake, and only 30,000 garrison troops in Jingkou. If he forcibly attacks the water village, Liu Kun will definitely launch an attack by the shogunate mountain cavalry.
.
Huan Wen felt a little depressed in his heart. He realized that his plan of using fire ships against fire ships was no longer feasible, so he could only take the risk to capture the beacon. Just as he was about to take the initiative to ask for help, another bodyguard hurried in.
The personal guard took out a letter from his arms and presented it: "The Minister of Finance at Jingkou has something urgent to report to the king!"
"Oh?" Yunfeng quickly reached out to take it. He was worried that something had happened to Jingkou. Not only Yunfeng, everyone had similar worries. They all turned their attention to Yunfeng and paid close attention to the changes in his expression.
.
However, Yunfeng did not show any emotion, which made everyone in the hall feel anxious and uneasy.
"Hahahaha~~" Suddenly, Yunfeng laughed wildly and said: "God help me!" [
Xun Guanniang quickly asked: "What's wrong, Broken Mountain? Is there any good news from Shangshu Ling?"
Yunfeng nodded, looked at Yu Wenjun, smiled slightly and said: "Mrs. Yu, your two brothers have led 20,000 Kuaiji troops to station in Jingkou two days ago."
"Ah?" Yu Wenjun couldn't help but exclaimed: "Great, brother finally made the most correct choice, Wenjun is relieved." After saying that, he frowned and said in confusion: "Brother, come to vote.
It is certainly a good thing, but there are only 20,000 troops, and they are still infantry, so what use can they be used? General, what do you mean when you say that God will help you? How do you mean God will help you?"
Yunfeng did not answer, but looked at Huan Wen with hidden eyes and asked: "Huan Wen, what do you think? What might you think of it?" (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come.
