Chapter 824 The fighting power is so strong

According to what Li Xiang told them before, as the leading generals in the army, you must carefully calculate the surrounding crises wherever you go. Although you are not necessarily allowed to lead soldiers to attack, as long as it is possible , you must be prepared.

Soldiers come here specifically to fight. Their idea is to improve their own combat literacy. They don't need to do other things, but you are all generals. You are different from ordinary soldiers. You have to consider But there is more. If there is no way to diversify your thinking, then you are not a qualified general.

When Zhang Jiuli said what he said, the two people immediately pulled Zhang Jiuli to the front of the sand table. There are a total of twelve routes into the mountain. Among these twelve routes into the mountain, almost every route has a stronghold. However, nine of the strongholds only have a dozen or so people. Even if they are taken down, they will not be able to scare the chieftains on the mountain.

The three strongholds have more than 1,000 troops, and the largest one has more than 5,000 troops. This is also the largest attack point they have to face.

After listening to Qin Huaiyu's attack plan, Zhang Jiuli didn't know what to say. He thought that after he said what he said, the two people in front of him would definitely complain and make various demands. If you ask your subordinates to investigate the surrounding area, it is very likely that they will not be able to complete the task in half a month.

The Sichuan-Shu army that Zhang Jiuli faced before was basically like this. As long as the people in the army take action, it will definitely be delayed indefinitely. When will you give them some money or make up for the previous military pay? , then these people started to do business. Zhang Jiuli had never seen the efficiency of Qin Huaiyu and others in his dreams.

"Master Zhang?"

While Zhang Jiuli was still in a daze, Qin Huaiyu knocked on the table next to him with his scabbard. We are having a military meeting here. How can you, a deputy governor, be distracted? Although you have been judged as a sinner, His Highness has not removed you from your post, so it is acceptable to call you this.

"I'm sorry, generals. I have thought of something else. According to the plan of the two generals, there is no problem for us to attack this stronghold garrisoned by 5,000 people. But do the other surrounding strongholds have enough troops to attack? I know that most of the army now consists of new recruits who do not have the strength to attack. How can the four thousand men under the two generals capture the remaining eleven strongholds?"

Zhang Jiuli raised his own question. According to what Qin Huaiyu said just now, if neither the new soldiers nor the local army participated in this operation, then only the 4,000 people Li Xiang brought from the capital would be able to win by relying on these 4,000 people alone. The enemy's twelve strongholds, this is really too difficult.

"In addition, I would like to add that in order to achieve the effect, we must take them down at the same time. The time before and after cannot exceed one day. In other words, if we attack at night, we must take them down before dawn."

Zhang Jiuli was afraid that the two people would not understand, so he made some supplementary remarks in the middle. However, Qin Huaiyu and Su Dingfang glanced at each other, and both looked at Zhang Jiuli like a fool.

But soon, Su Dingfang patted Qin Huaiyu on the shoulder, and then gave him a look. Qin Huaiyu also understood that there was a problem with our mutual understanding. We have all led His Highness's army, so we naturally know His Highness's army. combat effectiveness and execution capabilities.

But Zhang Jiuli is different. Where do people know the combat effectiveness of His Highness's army? They can only infer based on the combat effectiveness of the ordinary armies of the Tang Dynasty. Even if they know that Li Xiang's army has a slightly stronger combat effectiveness, then I will give you more It’s almost enough to double it, right?

But even if it is doubled, you use four thousand troops to attack twelve strongholds, and the distance between these twelve strongholds is still very far. As long as you send out the army, there will definitely be no way. To support each other, one of the strongholds has more than 5,000 troops stationed, and the two secondary strongholds have more than 1,000 troops. The total number of troops is about 9,000. You only have 4,000 troops. How can you do that? Can you kill it?

"Master Zhang, please rest assured. Give us two days to prepare and I will give you an accurate answer within two days. No matter when you order us, as long as the weather is suitable at that time, we can take it down within one day. If If we are lucky, maybe half a day will be enough, and we will not choose to attack at night, we will choose to attack during the day, when there is no rain."

Su Dingfang patted her chest and made a promise. Zhang Jiuli felt like he was having trouble breathing. Don't you talk without thinking through your brain? Do you think this is on the kang of your home? You are facing an army of nine thousand chieftains, and you are still on someone else's territory. You carelessly said that you can defeat it in one morning. You really think there is something wrong with my IQ. ?

Of course, Zhang Jiuli thought so in his heart, but he must not say it in his mouth. Everyone knew that Su Dingfang was Li Xiang's beloved general and would take him wherever he went.

Unless Zhang Jiuli is a fool, otherwise he will never say what is in his heart. If he really said it like this, the soldiers outside the tent today may not be able to let him out. If you insult our general, you are insulting us as a whole. an army.

"The general is brave and good at fighting, and the troops under the general are naturally very brave. I have heard others say this, and I believe it very much. However, the local situation is different from other places, especially since they live in the mountains. The general should have They all fight in grasslands and plains, and fighting in mountains is different from these places. They are extremely familiar with the local conditions, and there are some traps..."

What Zhang Jiuli said sounds nice, but in fact it expresses a problem, that is, you people are bragging. Based on what you are saying now, we don’t believe it at all. If it is really what you say, Are the people on the mountain still so difficult to fight? Do you know how long they have been kings here?

"I said Mr. Zhang..."

"General, calm down, general, calm down."

Seeing that Su Dingfang was unhappy and the people in the army were unhappy, they could do anything. Qian Ping couldn't stand by and watch all this happen...
