Chapter 599: The Final Battle! Daqin Ruozan's Plan!

Chapter 599

"Daqin Ruozan?"

Wang Chong was secretly surprised. He hadn't seen this great figure of Uzang for several days. The so-called those who come are not good, and those who are kind do not come. There must be nothing good for Daqin Ruozan to come out at this time.

"Great Minister, come and be safe!"

Wang Chong was the first to speak, and his voice resounded in all directions.

"Young master, it's been a long time."

Daqin Ruozan was calm and calm, slowly waving the feather fan in his hand, smiling.

Seeing Daqin Ruozan's expression, Wang Chong's heart skipped a beat, he could still laugh at such a calm time, it was definitely weird.

"Daxiang is in a good mood!"

Wang Chong said calmly.

"Hehe, the young master has been living comfortably these few days!"

Daqin Ruozan said with a smile, his expression became more and more relaxed.

"To tell you the truth, today the truth is to tell you something."

"oh?"

Wang Chong was thoughtful.

"The prime minister is really leisurely!"

"Hehe, don't get me wrong, my lord. Ben is actually quite admirable compared to your lord."

The smile on Daqin Ruozan's face became wider and wider, but the fan in his hand became slower and slower.

"Whether it's the Lion City or this steel city, the young master's foresight and talent are really impressive. It can be seen that the young master came prepared, but I just want to ask, is the young master's water prepared enough?"

Speaking of the last sentence, Daqin Ruozan put away his feather fan and burst out laughing.

hum.

Wang Chong's pupils constricted, and his face suddenly changed.

In the distance, Daqin Ruozan withdrew his troops and disappeared without a trace again, only his loud laughter resounded throughout the battlefield.

the top of the mountain,

Wang Chong didn't move at all, his expression was extremely solemn. A gust of wind blew by, but his body was extremely cold.

"What's the matter, son?"

Eagle came over from behind and said with concern.

Discovered by him!

This was the only thought left in Wang Chong's mind.

There is a huge flaw in all Wang Chong's plans, and it is irreparable, and that is the source of water. There is very little precipitation in the southwest, and a heavy rain like the previous one is already extremely rare.

However, the daily problem of eating horses and chewing horses is a problem that has to be solved.

However, the source of water is different from steel, Wang Chong cannot transport water like transporting steel. Moreover, in order to deal with Wusizang and Mengshezhao, Wang Chong chose the mountain for the decisive battle, which made it even more difficult for Wang Chong to obtain water.

This is irreparable in any case.

Wang Chong has been trying his best to hide this point, but in the end, Daqin Ruozan finally discovered it!

"Call old Mr. Zhang Shouzhi over here.

Under the flagpole, Wang Chong suddenly said.

"Young master."

Zhang Shouzhi came much faster than expected. Right behind Wang Chong, Zhang Shouzhi saluted respectfully. Zhang Shouzhi's face was still pale, but after the eagle tapped him to sleep in the sleeping point, his complexion improved a lot after all.

Moreover, Wang Chong also gave him some pills that could strengthen his body and nourish blood and energize Qi, but it still had some effect after all.

"Senior Zhang, how much water do we have? How much Xu Qiqin has prepared for us, and how long can the army last?"

Wang Chong was silent for a long time.

"Miss Xu has been very careful and prepared a lot of water bags for us. However, water is very special after all, and it cannot be carried like an ordnance. In addition, we arrived here ahead of time. According to the order of the young master, we have many water bags on the top of the mountain. Reservoirs have been dug in the local area. The previous heavy rains have also received a lot.”

"What's more, the young master asked us to arrive early, dig water sources near here, and reserve in advance before the war. Therefore, our drinking water situation is actually quite good."

"In addition, in the previous night raid, we also looted a lot of water bags from Mengshezhao people."

"However, the daily cost of 80,000 to 90,000 horses is not a small number after all. No matter how much water we store, it will still be a drop in the bucket and not enough."

Zhang Shou's way.

Only he and Wang Chong knew about the water consumption of the 80,000-90,000 troops. No one else knows at all. The purpose is to avoid possible panic. Water is different from food. It may seem inconspicuous, but it must be used every day.

Burning fire for cooking, daily drinking, and war horses are all indispensable.

Without sufficient water sources, there will be problems for the army, and it will be more deadly than food. The point is, Wang Chong chose to fight on the mountain, so the water source problem was already doomed to become a congenital defect that could not be remedied.

This is the fish and the bear's paw, you can't have both.

Daqin Ruozan hit him on the nail.

"Tell me, just hold on for a few more days."

Wang Chong said calmly.

"Ten,...twelve days!"

Zhang Shou's way.

"How long is it?"

Wang Chong frowned and said again.

"Ten days, no, up to nine days!"

Zhang Shouzhi hesitated, gritted his teeth, and finally told the truth.

Swish!

On the side, Eagle, Chen Shusun, and the guards and heralds on the top of the mountain all changed their expressions. Before, when Daqin Ruozan came out to talk to Wang Chong, everyone already felt something was wrong.

But knowing that there is only nine days of drinking water, everyone knows that things are far more serious than imagined.

In an instant, the atmosphere on the top of the mountain was extremely solemn.

However, the entire mountaintop was silent, everyone kept their mouths shut, and dared not say a word.

"So, after nine days, will they attack aggressively?"

Eagle looked worried.

"It won't take nine days, five days, at most six days, and they will launch an attack. Daqin Ruozan will not wait until our water source is exhausted before launching an attack."

Wang Chong said in a deep voice.

Daqin Ruozan wouldn't wait that long, and Ge Luofeng wouldn't wait that long either. In five days, the army will immediately experience obvious water shortages, and there will be obvious changes in the horses and daily drinking.

If you don't know it in advance, there will be nothing in the army. But Daqin Ruozan obviously knew this, so he deliberately met him.

On the sixth day, things deteriorated further, and morale will experience obvious shocks. The drinking of war horses and soldiers will decrease sharply, and everyone can feel this change.

But Wang Chong had to do so.

Because once the strategy is changed and a large amount of water is consumed, then with Daqin Ruozan's style, he will definitely change the strategy and delay it until the seventh day, or if he finds that Wang Chong continues to do so, if he delays a little bit, then the water source of the Annan Protectorate Army will be consumed. The speed will be greatly advanced, and it will not last for less than nine days.

Once there is no water in the army, those who wait for the army will be defeated.

"Young master, why don't we start the military water control now? Maybe we can last until twelve days."

Zhang Shouzhi tentatively said.

"Need not!"

Wang Chong said without hesitation:

"If we change our strategy now and our morale drops, Daqin Ruozan will launch an attack immediately without waiting five days. Also, don't forget what is the purpose of our visit this time?"

Eagle, including Chen Shusun beside him, was shocked and immediately reacted.

Wang Chong had told them before that there are always two levels of tactics and strategy in a war. In terms of tactics, everyone's goal is to resist the Mongolian-Ukrainian coalition forces and drag them here to death.

while the strategy

The outcome of the war is not only determined by the victory or defeat of one or two battles. For Wang Chong, there is another factor that determines the victory or defeat of this southwest battle, and that is the "court"!

"I don't know if there is any movement between Uncle and King Song?"

Wang Chong secretly said in his heart.

Datang has indeed declined, and people feel at ease. The long period of peace made Datang gradually lose its original vigor. In the current Tang Dynasty, Wang Chong can be sure that all the powers around him are ready to move, and there are many hidden dangers.

Turks, Goguryeo, Dashi, Tiaozhi, and the countries of the Western Regions, these former opponents and potential opponents of the Tang Dynasty, are cooperating with Mongolia and Uzbekistan to contain the forces of the Tang Dynasty.

But Datang is Datang after all, and the accumulation of hundreds of years is there.

Wang Chong believed that as long as he held off the Mongolian-Ukrainian coalition army for a while, the imperial court would be able to send a reinforcement sooner or later.

...

"How about it?"

Outside Wu Sizang's camp, everyone gathered together, Daqin Ruozan and Ge Luofeng were in front, Huoshu Guizang and Duan Gequan were behind, and then the other generals. Not far away, the mountains where Datang camped were like prehistoric monsters, lying in front of everyone.

But all eyes followed Daqin Ruozan, looking at the curling smoke on the top of the mountain.

When the brigade has three meals a day, the commanders of both sides will show up on time and watch together. This has become a spectacle among the Mongolian-Ukrainian coalition forces.

"Compared to yesterday, the amount of cooking smoke has not decreased at all. People in Tang Dynasty still have no control over water use!"

Feng Jiayi answered on the side.

He was a hostage in the capital of the Tang Dynasty and lived there for a period of time. He dabbled in all aspects of military art and Confucianism. So this way of judging the stove fire also has a little understanding

"This is the brilliance of the Wang family!"

Daqin Ruozan sighed, abandoning their respective positions. Daqin Ruozan actually admired and appreciated Wang Chong quite a lot. This is definitely a formidable opponent. If he is allowed to fully grow, even Daqin Ruozan does not know how far he will grow.

But because of this, Daqin Ruozan couldn't let him leave alive.

"The current brigade has doubts about what I said. If he starts water control now, the water can be used for a longer period of time, but the panic in the army may start now. And the longer the time goes by, the more Seriously. That would be much worse than no water control."

"But will it work?"

The prince Fengjia is different.

"Of course it didn't work."

Daqin Ruozan laughed and said:

"No matter what he does now, it's useless. This is his culprit. No matter how smart he is, it won't help."

"My lord, the time you've been waiting for has come. Seven days at most, that's when we launch a general offensive."

Ge Luofeng laughed out loud.
