A cold light flashed in Xu Daofu's eyes, and he glared at Li Nanfeng so hard that Li Nanfeng knelt down in fright: "Master, my disciple made a mistake, please punish me."
When Xu Daofu saw Li Nanfeng like this, he softened, his expression softened slightly, and he stretched out his hand to help Li Nanfeng: "Well, I know you have always been outspoken, and I'm afraid there are not a few people who think so. You are the only one who said it yourself.
."
Xu Daoan said quickly: "We do think so in our hearts, but brother, you have always tried your best, how can we people understand it? You are always right, we just follow it."
Xu Daofan waved his hand: "Some military aircraft cannot be leaked until the time comes, because there are many people with mixed ears. It's not that I can't trust you. You are all my disciples and subordinates who have followed me for many years, and you are all my brothers. I don't doubt you."
loyalty, but if there are too many people who know about it, sometimes it will leak out if they talk nonsense. If the disciples below know it but cannot understand it, there may be problems in execution. Therefore, military aircraft cannot leak it. This is basic
You should also understand the art of war."
Li Nanfeng kept nodding his head and said: "We understand, we have always understood. Just like when I couldn't calm down for a moment, I just said what I was thinking. If the master had told me the battle plan in advance, I would never have guaranteed that this would be broken.
Your mouth won't reveal secrets, Master, you did the right thing."
Xu Daofu nodded with satisfaction: "However, I couldn't say it at the time because I was afraid that if the news leaked, it would affect our ability to capture Wulindu, Wu Haozhi and Li Lang's identities. I have never leaked them to anyone. Now
They have already revealed their identities, and I have nothing to hide. I can now tell you the battle plan this time. This time our divine sect is dispatching a large army. The 30,000 troops will not walk on the water, but on the Qianlong battleship.
, drove all the way from Liyang to here, everyone stayed like this for five full days under the water. They could only drink two glasses of water every day and were not allowed to eat to prevent them from pooping too much and being forced to float up. After suffering so much, it can be seen that
Why?"
Li Nanfeng laughed: "We didn't understand at the time. We thought we were going to sneak back to Jiangling and attack Jiangling directly. Some brothers also said that this was to suddenly attack Changsha or Sangluozhou and intercept the enemy's Jiangzhou troops.
The retreat route. But now we know that our real purpose is to go to Wulindu, then go west from Wulindu, capture the Matou Camp, and go straight to Jiangling."
Xu Daofu laughed: "Nanfeng, you are right. It seems that you can still understand the general trend."
Xu Daoan followed and said: "Then why don't you go directly to the riverside of Jiangling's outer city, and then capture the outer water city of Jiangling? Wouldn't it be better for us to use this surprise to attack Jiangling?"
Xu Daofu waved his hand: "Jiangling is the capital of Jingzhou. Liu Daogui is careful with his troops. He always has a heavy presence in Jiangling. Even if we arrive outside Jiangling and capture the water city outside by surprise, Liu Daogui can retreat to the inner city.
Continue to defend."
"Our troops are mostly light-armed troops. It is not that easy to besiege the fortress of a large city. After the siege, we need to cut down nearby trees and make siege equipment. Therefore, raiding Jiangling is not the best option. Liu Daogui is not
Sima Xiuzhi will not be easily scared away by us. Even if he is a little panicked at first, he will definitely be able to organize resistance in the inner city."
"Another point is that the water city outside Jiangling has always been the focus of Liu Daogui's defense. When Wu Haozhi was Liu Daogui's guard captain, he saw with his own eyes that Liu Daogui's water city outside Jiangling was full of hidden secret passages. Their own
When the Huanglong warship goes out, it must strictly control its weight and avoid the hidden spikes on the bottom of the water. However, our warship itself is a huge ship, or a hidden dragon warship like ours. If we force it
If you want to break into Gangneung Water City from underwater, I'm afraid most of them will be destroyed by the spiked wooden stakes under the water before you get in, and it will be impossible to successfully attack the city."
Li Nanfeng said in admiration: "Master is very thoughtful. Only by avoiding these traps can we protect ourselves. In this way, Jiangling cannot be attacked directly. Only Wulindu is our feasible target.
"
Xu Daofu nodded: "Yes, Wulindu is just a ferry after all. Although there is a camp for defense, the defenders are only about a thousand people. And God helps me, Wu Haozhi and Li Lang actually took the initiative to send them there
We were defending here. After I got in touch with them, I strengthened my determination to capture Wulindu. Not only did we capture Wulindu, we could also go a step further and seize the Matou camp. Once the Matou camp is ours
, then there is no danger to defend in the northeast direction of Jiangling, Liu Daogui has only one option to defend the city."
Xu Daoan laughed: "Li Lang said before that even the capital of Lu Zong brought troops back because they wanted to collect the autumn grain from Yongzhou. In addition, Zhu Chaoshi went to Jiangzhou and took away some of the soldiers and horses. Now the defenders in Jiangling City
, there are less than 15,000 people, but we have an army of 30,000. If we seize the Ma Tau Camp and then take Jiangling directly, we can defeat it in one fell swoop, because Jiangling is a big city and there are too many places to defend at the top of the city.
Once the troops are dispersed, it will be impossible to defend."
Li Nanfeng smiled and said: "That's it. Jiangling's defense has always been arranged towards the south of the river, and rarely defended towards the north. Unless the residential buildings in the north of the city are cleared in advance, and then a large camp is set up. One city and one camp are the horns of each other.
That's right. The reason why Yin Zhongkan was defeated at the hands of Huan Xuan was that he faced this kind of situation. Huan Xuan also sent troops from Jiangxia, passed through Wulin Ferry, crossed Ma Tou, and directly attacked the north of Jiangling. Yin Zhongkan couldn't even resist.
The organization has no choice but to flee. But this time, if we take the horse head, we can cut off the connection between Jiangling and Dangyang to the north. Even if Liu Daogui wants to escape, it will be impossible."
Xu Daofu nodded with satisfaction and said: "Yes, Liu Daogui sent Zhu Chaoshi to send troops to Jiangzhou. Actually, he wanted to test our strength. He wanted to test whether there was a powerful army that could kill Zhu Chaoshi, so that he could attack Jingzhou.
Strength. If I had attacked in Sangluo Prefecture at that time, I could have eliminated Zhu Chaoshi and saved Yingjiu, but I would have exposed myself. Even if I captured Wulindu later, I would not be able to achieve the suddenness of the battle!"
"Liu Daogui will definitely withdraw all the defenders from various places, especially the soldiers and horses in Dangyang, and concentrate on blocking the Matou camp. Then it will be even more difficult for our army to attack and break the camp. We will have to wait for the army behind.
In place. This will also give Liu Daogui time to urgently mobilize Yongzhou troops and Wuling troops to return reinforcements. Even Liu Yu will urgently send troops through the Dabie Mountains in northwest Henan to forcibly open a rescue channel to Jiangling. If we reach this step, we
We will face the trouble of a second attack on Jiankang."
