Dark Fairy

Chapter 341 Triggering new abilities

Back at the mansion, what Bailang had seen and heard in the barracks today was still in his mind.

Although he is a layman in the army, Bailang doesn't think he can just let his mind go and just listen to what the generals around him say.If Hong Chao's generals had an excellent record, he wouldn't mind being a respondent and not using his brain, but the fact is just the opposite. From history to now, Hong Chao's army has never won even a single game against Yunyan.How could Bailang trust this?

Since he couldn't believe the judgment of these generals of the Hong Dynasty, Bai Lang had to use his brain to ponder as much as possible.But he is a pure layman, and he has only read half of the rough concepts on the market even in military books.

But Bailang has his own little method.

Don't you believe in the judgment of Hong Chao's military?At the same time, do you lack relevant military strategy knowledge?Then you don't have to look for the direction yourself and just follow Hong Chao's army in the opposite direction to figure it out?If some logical and self-consistent truths are figured out, it means another choice for Yunyan Manzi.If not, then for the time being, we can only follow what Hong Chao Junwu said and take it one step at a time.

Bailang sat in the study for an hour, and on the table was a topographic map of the Changshui Basin used by the army, of course it was a simplified version.But we can also see the relevant important cities and the changes of various topography and landforms along the Changshui River.

Logically speaking, Bailang corresponds to the map, and he also felt that if Yunyan Barbarian moved fast enough, he would be able to gather enough boats to cross the river before or at Shuangqing City.After all, the big boats are gone and there are still small boats, so it is no problem to use them to cross the river.Moreover, Bai Lang had also seen those so-called naval divisions of the Hong Dynasty, all of which were modified from ordinary large ships. This kind of military ships were completely free when they met Qi trainers, and there was no hope that they could do any blockade on the river.

In other words, following the deduction of those generals under Liu Jianyu's account, the final result is to see if Yunyan Barbarian can gather enough boats to cross the river before Shuangqing City, and then Yongchuan City can avoid the flames of war, and at the same time the final pressure will come On the north shore of Changshui.

But if the Yunyan barbarians failed to collect enough boats to cross the river before Shuangqing City, they would most likely go north to Shuangqing City or even take Shuangqing City and head straight for Yongchuan City.

Bailang didn't understand many of these calculations, but judging from the state of Liu Jianyu's pre-war deduction today, [-]% of the people did not think that any city on the south bank could withstand the Yunyan barbarians, including themselves.They all felt that either the barbarian Yunyan would not come, and everyone would have a way to survive, or if he came, he would have to fight to the death, and finally be reduced to scorched earth together with the city.

By analogy, the generals of Yongchuan City thought so, did the defenders in Shuangqing City or other cities think the same way?
Then the question arises, is it impossible for all guards to be as resolute and resigned to death as Zhao Panshan, the black tiger general of Pengshan Pass?
Even if Yunyan Barbarian is too barbaric to surrender, the judgment of the current situation gives those who don't want to die, or face Yunyan Barbarian, another choice.That is to let those barbarians who went north along the river quickly go to the north bank, whether they go to rush to Shunning, or be stopped by the cities on the north bank, anyway, just don't come to their side to get involved.

So "ship" became the key.

Not only is it the key to the Yunyan barbarian crossing the river, but also the key to whether the soldiers and civilians in the cities north of Rongcheng and on the south bank of the Changshui can survive.

If you take the initiative to send them, no, if you accidentally miss a dozen or twenty large and medium-sized ships and get them by the Yunyan barbarians on the riverside, is that a disguised relief for yourself?Bailang thought so.

It's not that Bailang's mind is too dark, but that facing the lack of fighting spirit, he feels that he will die if he kills him, and when the entire Hong Dynasty military department appears to be extremely incompetent, it's hard not to raise the question, "I can't fight anyway, why not?" Find a way out for yourself" thinking.

Of course, the above are all based on today's deduction by Liu Jianyu, Bailang's own thinking.He doesn't believe it.The category of unbelief is not his series of judgments on Hong Chao's side, but the judgments of Liu Jianyu and other Hong Dynasty generals on Yunyan barbarians.Because since the start of this war, Hong Chao has not guessed even a single move of Yunyan, all of which seem reasonable, logical and self-consistent, but every time they are far from the actual situation.

Bailang's little method is deduced in reverse.

How to reverse?Naturally, Liu Jianyu's generals started to deduce the situation of the battle situation on the south bank of Changshui fundamentally in reverse.

That is to say, Liu Jianyu's subordinates agreed that the Yunyan barbarians would extend the water to the north, and then wait for the opportunity to seize the boats and cross the river to force Shunning.

What if this deduction is wrong?
What if Yunyan Barbarian hadn't made a lot of trouble on the south bank of the Changshui River as everyone inferred, and finally had to cross the river to Shunning?

What will happen in that case?

Bailang sat in front of the map and thought.From time to time, some far-fetched conjectures will pop up in my mind.

Perhaps it was Bai Lang, a layman with no military literacy or knowledge at all, who dared to disregard the consensus of so many generals and consider other possibilities.

Following this rebellious thought, Bailang wrote and drew on the map. Then he looked at the map and Yunyan Barbarian's furious attack speed, and an idea gradually emerged in his mind.

"If the purpose of the barbarians is not to cross the river, their purpose of sweeping across the south bank of Changshui in such a violent way, apart from their ridiculous brainwashing madness of the battle of gods, must be to raise food!

If it is by land, raising food for more than a hundred miles will not be worth the loss. After two hundred miles, the food raised by people eating horse chews is not enough to eat on the road, and it will inevitably slow down the speed of travel and their own mobility. War support war.But this problem can be perfectly solved on the edge of long water.As long as you collect food and supplies, you don’t need escorts at all, just throw them on the boat and go down the river.”

When Bailang thought of this, he was startled.

"Going down the river, isn't this transporting the food back to the Tianfeng Plain in the south?!"

Bai Lang was so startled by this idea that he jumped up from his chair. The horror on his face was accompanied by his rapid breathing due to fear, and he looked at the southern end of the line representing the long water on the map.That's where Tianfeng Plain is close to Bodaoling in the west. It's also near where Yunyan's army split up and crossed Tianfeng Plain to fight down. It's estimated that the distance is less than eighty miles.

"In this way, these barbarians don't need to cross the river at all. If they raise food and then fight back to the Tianfeng Plain, they can ignore the strong walls and clear the wilderness of the Tianfeng Plain, and at the same time achieve a double-sided attack on the Tianfeng Plain!

Once the main force of the Hong Dynasty on the Tianfeng Plain is wiped out, nearly [-]% of the Hong Dynasty's combat power will be emptied.At that time, going north to force Shun Ning would be like searching for something.

If that's the case, how could the barbarian Yunyan, an important town in Yongchuan City, let him go? ! "

Bailang didn't care about Hong Chao's victory or defeat at all. What he cared about was whether he and all the people who followed him could have a retreat to shelter and avoid disaster when the war came, and to see the light of day again after the war retreated, instead of turning into scorched earth.Therefore, as soon as the thought "Yunyan barbarians will come to commit crimes" comes out, Bai Lang has a clear judgment.

Just after Bailang completed a complete deduction, a prompt from the attribute panel suddenly sounded in his mind:

[Trigger ability "Military Strategy"]
