One Thousand Four Hundred Sixty-Two: Failing Nieliang, Attacking Yang Tao, and Pointing the Sword to the World (2)

"Fortunately, my lord loves to build roads, otherwise this batch of luggage would have to be delivered a few days later."

Knowing that the first batch of luggage arrived at the front line, Feng Zhen and others quickly sent people to help them, counting the food and grass of the luggage, and checking the accounts.

After confirming that it was correct, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

My lord is capricious and changes his mind on the spot, which leads to a lack of defensive equipment on the front line. Once a defensive formation is used, it is bound to suffer a big loss.

Feng Zhen and the others were worried for several days, for fear that the enemy would show up, so they hardly slept well.

Now that the luggage has arrived, their confidence is also sufficient.

A slight smile appeared on Yang Si's haggard face, and he said, "My lord always says 'If you want to get rich, build roads first', the words are rough but not rough."

There are no battles to fight on weekdays, and the flat roads are convenient for the people to travel.

Once the war starts, the supplies and food can reach the front line one step faster.

How important this is to the ever-changing frontline.

After finishing the work of returning the luggage to the warehouse, Fu Wang called everyone to discuss the countermeasures.

Zhangzhou is Yang Tao's base camp, with well-developed waterways, it is extremely difficult for outsiders who are not familiar with the terrain to attack.

Of course, if you are not good at water warfare, even if you are familiar with the terrain of the waterway 6, you still can't take advantage of it.

Feng Zhen said, "Our lord is also an expert in planning for a rainy day. He dug Qi Kuang from Yang Jian early on, otherwise this battle will not be easy."

Feng Zhen recommended Qi Kuang to Jiang Pengji during the Huangshui League.

Because it is not easy to ask Yang Jian directly, she "borrowed" Qi Kuang under the pretext of "borrowing someone to watch", and she has never thought about paying it back. Qi Kuang diligently trained sailors for Jiang Pengji for many years. As a down-to-earth doer, Qi Kuang usually only knows how to bury his head and practice hard, never asks for credit, and lives up to the trust of the lord in him, so his sense of existence has not been high these years.

However, this does not annihilate Qi Kuang's contribution, and his efforts over the years are also valuable.

If it weren't for him, the water battle against Northern Xinjiang would not have been so easy to win, let alone establish the northern hegemony in one fell swoop.

Now it is Zhangzhou with developed waters, and water wars are inevitable.

If a group of landlubbers board a boat to fight a water battle, it is almost equivalent to giving the enemy a head, what a fight!

Even if you sharpen your sword in front of the battle, the casualties will be very heavy.

Yang Si smiled and said, "Other objections, I have to admit this."

Qi Kuang said humbly, he didn't think it was due to him alone, without the trust and support of the lord for many years, he would not be what he is today. We must know that most of Jiang Pengji's territory is in the north, and there is almost no need for water warfare, and training sailors is also a waste of time and energy.

It is not easy for sailors to train, and the energy cost is unimaginable to outsiders.

Qi Kuang knew very well that some people had long been dissatisfied with the navy, thinking that the useless navy took up too much military resources.

"This is the credit of the lord and the whole army, how can it be pushed to the head of the last general?"

Qi Kuang showed a shy smile, changed the topic, and said again, "There are many waterways in Zhangzhou. In the early years, water bandits were rampant. Yang Jian led people to clean up a wave, but it stopped for a while. After that, the world was in chaos, and the water bandits The number of bandits will only increase. Yang Tao's energy is mainly concentrated on Nansheng, and it is estimated that he will not be able to use all his forces to rectify the Zhangzhou water bandits. He will have an idea in the end, and I don't know if it will work."

Fu Wang said, "You might as well tell it out and ask the military advisers to help you with details."

Qi Kuang said, "Although the last general is from Zhangzhou, and his ancestors have dealt with water for generations, but if he is familiar with it, he is probably no better than those water bandits. If Yang Tao fails to subdue them completely, our army might as well send some sailors to capture some. From their mouths Find out about the waters."

In some places, the water is deep and the current is fast, while in some places, the water is shallow and it is easy to hit the rocks.

Even though Qi Kuang grew up by the water since he was a child, he dare not say that he knows every piece of water in Zhangzhou.

He has experience in water battles. He fought hundreds of water battles with Yang Jian back then, and he also summed up a set of experiences after paying the water bandits.

If the navy is sent to catch the water bandits, it shouldn't take much effort.

Fu Wang and others agreed to this proposal.

They have Kun map in their hands,

But the drawings are extremely simple, and the water area is also a few thick lines. If you really want to start a war with Yang Tao, this kind of map will not work. If they could find some water bandits who knew the basics, they wouldn't be afraid of being confused about the water route.

certainly……

It would be even better if all those water bandits and water villages could be subdued.

More than half a month before the battle between the two armies, Yang Tao looked forward to the stars and the moon, and finally hoped for Yan Lin to come back.

"How is our military prepared for war?"

As soon as Yan Lin came back, he didn't even have time to change his clothes, so he went to Yang Tao to ask about the situation without stopping.

Before he went to Zhongzhao, he prepared a spare "external brain" for Yang Tao, a counselor named "Qian Su".

Qian Su and Yan Lin are friends who were classmates when they were young. They share the same interests and have maintained contact over the years. Back then, Yan Lin assisted Yang Tao in seizing power from the false emperor Changshou Wang. If Qian Su hadn't secretly responded and used his family power to help him, he would not have succeeded.

During Yan Lin's absence, Qian Su assisted Yang Tao to manage the internal affairs in an orderly manner, and the logistics preparations were also done seamlessly.

"It's ready." Qian Su said, "Shall Shaoyang go for a test?"

"Would Lin be worried about your work?" Yan Lin said, "What's your attitude towards this battle?"

Qian Sudao, "My lord is fighting high, but...the people below have ulterior motives secretly."

The structure of Yang Tao's tent is relatively complicated, some are old people brought out from Zhangzhou, and some are recovered or taken refuge in Nansheng. Compared with the loyalty of the former, the latter is more speculative. Seeing that Jiang Pengji was powerful, they dispatched more than 200,000 elite troops to suppress the situation. Before they started fighting, they were a little timid, and their fighting spirit was low. Qian Su has been worrying about this these days.

Yan Lin said, "It's been expected."

Those who don't care whether Yang Tao wins or loses, they only care about whether their own interests rise or fall.

Qian Sudao, "How does Shaoyang feel about the outcome of this battle?"

Yan Lin said without hesitation, "Our army is a little weak, but it's not easy for Liu Xi to win."

Yang Tao's troops lost too much in the Nansheng battlefield, and his supplies and supplies were even more consumed. Before he could take a breath, Jiang Pengji sent troops to suppress the situation. The situation was not good for him. However, Yan Lin didn't think that these disadvantages meant that Yang Tao would lose.

Zhangzhou has a special terrain, with waters running across the entire territory. If you want to capture this place, you must fight by water.

Qian Sudao, "That's right, most of Liu Xi's soldiers and horses are from the north, and they are not good at water."

Yan Lin smiled wryly, and said, "That's not necessarily the case."

"What's the point of this?"

Yan Lin said, "I'm afraid you don't know. When the Huangshui League met, Liu Xi borrowed a centurion from the old master under the pretext. This centurion is very inconspicuous, but Lin observed for a long time, and found that this person is quite Talented. The timing is right and it can be reused. Unexpectedly..."

Unexpectedly, it was borrowed and has not been returned.

"No accident, Liu Xi has a navy in his hands, so I can't be careless."
