The Legend of Swing Sword and Execution of Demons

Chapter 461

"Twenty years ago, under many years of internal conflicts, the court was already in chaos, but when the foreign barbarians were in trouble and the country survived, the monarch and his ministers would be united. Therefore, although this "scholar" is weak, it is still enough to deter Gouli, defeat Poison Zhu and Luo Yue."

Luo Piaoling took the three red "pawns" off the chessboard.

"Wala is fierce and Dongying is insidious. They originally came here to take advantage of the exhaustion of Zhongzhou. It was intentional and unintentional. In addition, it has been planned for a long time, so the flames of war quickly spread to most of Zhongzhou. With the power of the imperial court at that time, it was obviously incapable of parrying. However, the disaster of foreign barbarians is The national calamity is not only faced by the monarchs, ministers and generals, but also the people. At that time, only the whole of Zhongzhou can drive out the foreign enemies."

Luo Piaoling moved the red "horse" to the upper right of the Jiugong grid.

The "horse" travels in the sun, and the "scholar" goes up obliquely, but they are beyond their reach, and it is even more difficult to stop the threat of the "horse" to the "general".

"Will" can only move laterally to the right to avoid danger.

Why can only go to the right?

Because the red "car" is waiting to "come" out?

"Will" goes to the right.

There are "elephants" sticking to the bottom side, and the red "car" going to the bottom is bound to be useless.

There are "scholars" guarding the center of the nine palaces, and it is meaningless for the red "car" to be in the center.

Even though it can run amok, if the red "car" does not fight with the red "horse" to fight for the way, it will not be able to go straight to Huanglong.

"I am very fortunate that it was the time when the Zhongzhou Jianghu was thriving. Fortunately, the Zhongzhou Jianghu at that time not only had Shaolin Wudang and other Taishan Big Dippers, but also two big figures who led more than a hundred emerging forces in the Jianghu. 'One 'sword' can make the 'cart' and 'horse' helpless, not to mention two 'elephants' in the field, the 'cart' and 'horse' will soon swallow the bitter fruit."

After finishing speaking, Luo Piaoling withdrew the chariot and horse, and returned the four black chess pieces to their original positions.

"Although we have survived the catastrophe, it is clear that Zhongzhou has paid a too high price, and both the imperial court and the Jianghu have suffered greatly."

"With the passage of time, compared with the factions in Jianghu, there are still famous sects that are not recovering. Many forces are fighting openly and secretly, and the imperial court is growing cautiously. Now, to be more precise, since last month, the imperial court has already surpassed the Jianghu. .”

Luo Piaoling took a "bishop" and replaced it with a "scholar", but the "scholar" was not the "scholar" of black chess, but the "shi" of red chess.

Red "official" and black "general" and black "scholar" are juxtaposed. There is no such rule of chess in chess.

Luo Piaoling was not in a hurry to explain this, but started another sentence, saying: "The power of Zhongzhou looks at all directions, but no matter how fierce the goshawk or the lion is, they will not be invincible forever. They will fall asleep and get sick. It ages, needs new life, and of course has an Achilles' heel."

"The so-called attacking a snake and hitting seven inches, if you want to capture Zhongzhou, you don't need to go to every territory in Zhongzhou, you only need to take down the 'four cities, one place, one pass, and one ferry' in Zhongzhou."

Luo Piaoling said it lightly, but even Xiao Hua felt that he was exaggerating. After all, there is only one "seven inches" of a snake, but there are seven "seven inches" in Zhongzhou. If you want to destroy Zhongzhou, you have to strangle those seven places. It is not easy ?

"Wanren Mountain stretches across the west of Zhongzhou, and [-]% of the thousands of miles to the east is Gobi and [-]% is desert. Marching is laborious, time-consuming and laborious, so no one dares to go straight from the west."

"The northern land is vast, and the border passes are connected every thousand miles. Only Yangguan and Xixing Pass are worth breaking through."

"Break Yang Pass, you can go eastward or southward along the Sunshine Avenue. If you go forward, you can continue to fuel the supply line and fuel the front line. If you retreat, you can go thousands of miles day and night, leaving the pursuers behind."

"Behind Xixing Pass is Jinzhou City. Only by breaking through Jinzhou City can we truly open the northern gate of Zhongzhou and threaten the hinterland of Zhongzhou."

"Similar to the northern part of Zhongzhou, the southern part of Zhongzhou is facing the sea, and the southern part is connected to Duzhu and Luoyue. Most of them are deep mountains, forests and swamps. There are only two passages from south to north. One is the south. In the past, Uncle Nianniu, you are guarding Lingnan City, and the other is in the southwest, the Longjie Ferry in Yunze Realm, which was also guarded by Uncle Shi."

"If you compare the capital, Youjing, to the heart, then Gusu is the second heart of Zhongzhou. 20 years ago, the Japanese invaded the border, and they were blocked by Gusu when they went northward along the coastline. It is no longer possible to use the entire coastline to communicate with Zhongzhou formed a long-term tug-of-war, so it had to bite the bullet and head westward inland, so that it was difficult to move forward, and the success fell short.”

"Different from the other six places that are either Huguan or Xiongcheng, Fujian is so large that there are no dangerous places, and it is rich in water and mountains. In addition, it is adjacent to a large area of ​​the sea, so it is easy to attack and difficult to defend. It is relatively fragile, and it is always the mouth of sea invasion, and it can become a breeding ground for disasters inadvertently. As long as it can take root here and wait for it to flourish, it may not be possible to steal Lingnan from the west and Gusu from the north.”

Youjing City, Gusu City, Jinzhou City, Lingnan City, Mindi, Yangguan, and Longjie Ferry. As a general in the past, Niu Kelian naturally understood the importance of these strategic points. As Luo Piaoling pointed them out one by one, Niu Kelian Knowing what he says next is the most important thing.

"The Red Clothes Sect originated between the rivers and seas. Although it is not under the control of Dongying, Dongying has always treated the Red Clothes Sect with respect from the official to the private sector. Except for doing business in Zhongzhou Dongying through the Red Clothes Sect. With the help of other facilities provided by the Red Clothes Sect, it gradually spread in Zhongzhou, especially in Fujian. The Red Clothes Sect offers countless silk, silk, gold and silver every year, and the imperial court regards it as a cash cow, and local officials also regard it as incense Bobo, of course, will not pay attention to the little tricks behind it. Over the years, it is not known whether Dongying's Jianghu power has flourished in Fujian, but once the battle begins, Fujian can easily become the foundation of Dongying's invasion. Even if the tree cannot be shaken, it is hard to be broken up."

"The Oirat Army was able to break through Yangguan and Jinzhou City 20 years ago, but after the death of the two generals Huyan Shunde and Helan for more than [-] years, no one can really take over the important tasks of the two generals, Yangguan As far as Jinzhou City is concerned, it is half open. What's more, in Jinzhou City, the Twelve Gates of Tiansha, who half-cover the sky with their hands, frequently enter and leave the Northland, and the relationship with Wala is a business partnership. If the price is high enough, the Twelve Gates of Tiansha may not be able to hand over Jinzhou City."

"The situation at Longjie Ferry and Lingnan City is not optimistic, but in comparison, if the strength of Du Zhu and Luo Yue wants to break through the two barriers, they will have to pay a big price."

Luo Piaoling placed five black chess pieces on the Jiugongge again, but this time it was five "pawns".

Seeing this, Niu Kelian frowned, with an undisguised self-mockery on his face, and said: "According to what you said, the current situation in Zhongzhou is in a depression, and there will be many disasters, so who will have the power to recover? I ask myself Ability."

Luo Piaoling shook his head and said with a smile: "The country will be shaken. This is not a family matter. Uncle Niu, please listen to my next analysis, is it reasonable?"

Niu Kelian raised his chin to signal Luo Piaoling to continue.

"General Lian Po of Liang Feixiong in Gusu City is not old. If Zhongzhou really dies, Gusu will definitely be the last city to fight to the end."

Niu Kelian didn't say a word, but his eyes were slightly surprised. After all, Youjing is the capital of Zhongzhou. He knows how strong and solid the defenses are inside and outside Youjing. Even if it is broken, it can hold for a year, but Luo Piaoling said that Youjing is more vulnerable than Gusu.

Could it be that there are hidden dangers in Youjing City that he doesn't understand?
