"Unexpectedly, the victims of the disaster were unable to get food for a long time, and more than 100,000 people starved to death. This is the reason why Cangtian Dao has become bigger!"
"Where did all the food go?"
Chai Tiannuo frowned, and the waiter Jia said softly:
"According to reports from spies, most of them were corrupted by officials such as the chief envoy of Dongshan Province."
"...Damn moths, they should be peeled off and cramped, and the nine tribes should be exterminated!"
The general is furious, and it's okay to pay him back. But if he does such a dirty thing in the face of such a catastrophic disaster, he wishes he could be killed as quickly as possible!
"It's useless to be angry. We've been put into such a situation by these bastards. All we can do now is think about how to put down the rebellion!"
Emperor Tianqi pointed at Dongshan Province again with his long stick, his brows furrowed.
The generals put forward their own ideas one after another, but in the end they all shook their heads. There were nearly ten million rebels, a huge number, and it would take a lot of effort to just stand and let others slaughter them. It would not be so easy to pacify them.
While everyone was thinking hard, Chai Tiannuo studied the Dahua Jiangshan Sand Table, found the Gyeonggi region and Zhili, and compared it with the landscape in his memory, he couldn't help but nod his head.
It has to be said that Taoists like Qin Tianjian are really good at astronomy and geography, which is far from what others can match.
Not a single key point of the landscape that I know is missing, and the position coordinates are not wrong at all. It is incredible to be able to achieve such accuracy by just relying on the step-to-scale ratio!
After thinking about it, Chai Tiannuo found his familiar hometown again. Although Shaoyin County is only a small area, it still laid out the key points. There is even Shaoyin Mountain!
"It's amazing, it's true!"
Chai Tiannuo praised him repeatedly and raised his head suddenly, only to see that everyone, including Emperor Tianqi, was staring directly at him without making any sound.
"What are you doing?"
A group of big men, plus one man who was not a big man, all looked at him with direct eyes, and Chaitino felt a little scared.
"What are you doing? In the Jianzhang Palace, I'm afraid no one can compare with you in discussing battles and strategies. I'm just waiting here to rack my brain, but you're playing there, okay?"
The general glared at Chai Tiannuo fiercely, and even Emperor Tianqi nodded repeatedly.
Who is this guy?
Chai Shengren, the author of "Chai Zi's Art of War"!
In the entire Dahua, there are over two million soldiers in command, and there is only one person who has fought in battles with more than three million people. Everyone is thinking hard and racking their brains, but he, who has the most say, is watching the sand table and playing. I really hate it.
Everyone's teeth are itching.
"No way, it's because you are waiting for a discussion so I can't disturb you. In fact, I have an idea in my mind and I want to consult with everyone."
Chai Tiannuo grinned, everyone snorted, and Emperor Tianqi sneered and said:
"You're just playing, have you really thought about it?"...
"That's natural!"
Taking the long stick, Chai Tiannuo pointed at the east side of Dongshan Province:
"It is not advisable to disperse and attack in a pincer. We only need one hundred thousand soldiers all the way. Use this as a breakthrough point to break through three lines of defense in five days and go straight into Dongshan Provincial Capital!"
General Qiao Rong of Zuo Weiwei looked at the route map and couldn't help but gasped:
"Master Chai, these three points are the most important areas of Cangtian Dao, especially at the junction with Beihe Province, with nearly 400,000 troops, and the last two tributaries are also around 300,000, with a total force of nearly one million!"
"If three lines of defense were broken in five days, the casualties would be heavy. Are the tactics too radical?"
Another general added:
"Even though they are made up of refugees, the core are the priests, priests and heavenly soldiers of Cangtian Dao. They are proficient in magic and their combat power cannot be underestimated."
"And they are extremely good at deceiving people. With them here, and with the blessing of magic, the combat power of the refugees is probably not much worse than that of the soldiers."
Others also nodded in agreement. This is what everyone is most worried about.
Cangtian Dao is like a blessing talisman. With their presence, the originally weak refugees immediately increase their combat power, especially Qing Cang Tian and Yu Le Tian who are willing to sacrifice their lives. Even if they are wearing heavy armor, they may not be able to do anything. The most dangerous place is here.
"This is their weak point!"
Chai Tiannuo knocked on the high Fengchan Mountain in Dongshan Province with a long stick, with a bright smile on his face. Everyone looked at him and felt a little enlightened in their hearts, but they could not grasp the inspiration.
"A truly strong army must have no weaknesses!"
Chaitino nodded at the little figures placed near Dongshan Province and said with a smile:
"In a team built with hundreds of backbones, the weaknesses are visible to the naked eye."
"As long as we defeat them, the more people there are, the faster they will be defeated. Not to mention three or four hundred thousand, even three or four million will be destroyed in an instant!"
Everyone suddenly realized, Chai Tiannuo weighed the long stick in his hand and said seriously:
"A flock of sheep led by a lion, no matter how powerful it is, cannot be a pride of lions. If one of them is broken, the whole flock will collapse!"
"No matter how many people there are, we can only eat meat, so why be afraid?"
"...As expected of Sage Chai, his perspective on things is indeed beyond ours."
Emperor Tianqi said in a calm tone, and he didn't know whether he was flattering or derogatory.
Chai Tiannuo hurriedly handed over his hands and said with bared teeth:
"The fact that I have such a vision is all cultivated by His Majesty the General and all my colleagues. I also have your share of military achievements!"
Everyone grinned, is this still the stubborn Chai Tianyan?
"That's right, that's right. I haven't learned any other skills when entering the officialdom, but I'm good at flattery!"
Emperor Tianqi nodded, and Chai Tiannuo couldn't help but roll his eyes, "Why don't you say it's wrong!"
"The tactics you just mentioned are very reasonable, but there is a prerequisite. There must be a strong army that can withstand the early offensive, and there must be a peerless master who can decapitate the enemy among thousands of troops!"
"If you want to break the formation easily, both are indispensable."
General Li Chenglan said seriously, Chai Tiannuo smiled and pointed to the bridge of his nose:
"General, I have everything you said!"
Looking at Chai Tiannuo, Li Chenglan suddenly realized and nodded, this peerless master is right in front of him, but:
"You are indeed a peerless master, but how can you have such a powerful army?"
The Sixteen Guards under the Ministry of War can all be called a strong army, but the strong army the general calls a strong army is the kind of super powerful army that can face an enemy several times stronger without moving in battle, and sweep across the battlefield like a blade with very little damage.
In fact, each of the Sixteenth Guards Mansion has a small force with extremely high combat power, but the number is too small to be of any use.
Just as General Chaitino said, if you want it to be effective, you have to have hundreds of thousands of people.
Otherwise, it would be impossible to continuously defeat an army of nearly ten million mobs!
"If we have a strong army, we will set up camp in the west of Luoyang City."
Chai Tiannuo smiled. Before the general could react, Emperor Tianqi suddenly realized:
"You're talking about the left and right prison guards, Gu's new army?"
"Of course, if someone goes on an expedition, how can he not bring his own team?"
"...The guards on the left and right are finally new troops. Chai Xiaozi has been fishing for three days and drying nets for two days. Can he be called a strong army?"
The general asked in confusion. Before Chai Tiannuo could reply, Emperor Tianqi said first:
"If Zhao Xuanting were here, he would never say such words. That guy would like to go there eight times a day, almost becoming the second general of the two guards!"
Everyone grinned, what the second general said was really novel.
"An army from top to bottom, including cooks, groomsmen, and grooms, all practice the secrets of the family, and eat meat all day long and practice beating every day. Do you think it can be considered a strong army?!"
