Not only were the generals pointing at Zhan Ying's nose and cursing, Zhao Shiyu also frowned.
However, Zhao Shiyu did not get angry.
He looked at Zhan Ying and said, "Brother Zhan Ying, is this your tactic?
I want to hear why you want to give up the land of Lu and the Central Plains?"
Zhan Ying said calmly: "Because I want to delay the war until the third year.
Only by giving up the Central Plains Road and Lu Di can we stop the heavenly army from marching south."
"What a joke! What a joke! How can you stop the enemy from moving south if you have taken away all your troops?"
If you want to stop the enemy, you must set up defenses everywhere to delay time."
Zhan Ying said calmly: "Fortifications are everywhere, and there are layers of resistance. There are not enough soldiers to fill it.
According to calculations, the heavenly army will arrive here in May or June next year..." Zhan Ying drew another line on the map.
That line was not somewhere else, but the Huangyan River! The generals were puzzled.
Could it be that Zhan Ying wanted to rely on Huang Yanhe's natural dangers to block powerful enemies in the heavens?
That's not right either.
This guy has deployed all his troops in Xuzhou, Haozhou, and Taizhuang. That place is thousands of miles away from the Yellow River. How can it be possible to rely on the natural moat to defend the enemy?
Just when everyone was confused, Zhan Ying glanced at the generals in the palace with a dead look in his eyes.
He said slowly: "When the enemy came near the Huangyan River, we used black powder to blow up the two riverbanks at Huayuankou and Huanghukou in Yingzhou.
In the season of May and June, when the Huangyan River flows rapidly, if this river bank is exploded, the huge water force will fill the entire east bank and north bank in a short time, forming a thousands-mile yellow flood zone.
It will be difficult for the water in the yellow flood zone to recede within three or four months.
These three or four months are crucial. As long as we survive it, it will already be winter by the time the enemy marches to Xuzhou.
After winter comes, the combat effectiveness of the heavenly soldiers is greatly reduced, and we can take advantage of the situation to delay the war until the spring of next year.
We deployed heavy troops on the front lines of Haozhou, Xuzhou, and Taizhuang, and made a gesture of decisive battle with the enemy.
When the heavenly army approaches the city, this time we dig open the Yangtze River and divert the water from the Yangtze River into the Huaihe River.
Haozhou is where the Huaihe River turns. We blast the Wuhekou near Haozhou, and the water from the five rivers will quickly spread to the north, forming a larger yellow flood area with one south and one north of last year's yellow flood zone.
In this way, the war can be dragged into the fourth year.
At this time, all human forces, including those at Yumen Pass, will be reduced to central Sichuan, Lingnan, Qilin Mountain, and southern Xinjiang... to prepare for the final decisive battle."
There was silence in the side hall, except for the heavy breathing of the generals who looked down on life and death.
Everyone looked at Zhan Ying... this good-looking and energetic young man with fearful eyes.
At this moment, in their eyes, he is not a human, but a devil! What kind of hard-hearted man does he have to be able to think of digging up the Huangyan River embankment to delay the march to heaven.
No wonder he gave up Lu Di and the Central Plains. Once Huayuankou and Huanghukou burst their banks, the Thousand Miles of Plains would turn into Zeguo in a short time.
What's even more terrible is that in the second year after the Huangyan River burst its embankment, Zhan Ying wanted to follow the same pattern, dig up the Yangtze River in the south, divert the water from the Yangtze River northward, pass through the Haozhou section of the Huaihe River, and dig out the embankment again.
What is this if not crazy?
The first time the embankment burst, the Central Plains, Shandong and eastern Shanxi were flooded.
The second time the embankment burst, the only remaining fertile soil in the southern Central Plains was flooded.
It’s unclear whether the two breaches of the embankment can stop the heavenly army from moving south. Anyway, the Central Plains, the largest granary in the world, has definitely harvested nothing in the past two years.
The three major granaries, the Liaobei Plain have been lost.
If there is no harvest in the Central China Plain for two consecutive years, what will the hundreds of millions of people in the world eat?
What to drink?
Besides, the hinterland of the Central Plains is the most densely populated area. If the embankments burst continuously for two years, how many innocent people will die.
, after a long period of silence, the side hall suddenly erupted into deafening noises and curses.
Is this something humans do?
Zhan Ying became the devil that many people pointed out.
He looked at these people with sad eyes.
He knows how crazy his tactics are.
But only a madman can win this battle.
It is impossible to win with normal thinking.
Seeing the excitement of the heroes, Zhao Shiyu quickly dragged Zhan Ying and escaped from the side hall.
Fortunately, the palace is now heavily guarded, and there are many imperial guards outside the side hall, blocking the generals who want to chop the war heroes into pieces.
After safety, Zhao Shiyu said: "Is this your answer to Zhao Shuai?"
Zhan Ying said: "Yes.
For the past ten years, I have practiced the art of defeating the enemy day and night. Only this method can stop the enemy."
Zhao Shiyu sighed and said, "Do you know how many people will die if you use this method?"
Zhan Yingdao: "A lot."
Zhao Shiyu said: "It's not just as simple as killing a lot of people, your method is simply not feasible.
In the Yellow River Flood Area, which is thousands of miles away, it will take a long time for the people to move..." Zhan Ying interrupted Zhao Shiyu and said: "The people in the Yellow River Flood Area cannot be transferred on a large scale."
Zhao Shiyu said: "What?"
Zhan Yingdao: "If the people in the Yellow River Area are transferred in advance, the people in the heaven will definitely guess our intentions. Therefore, even if we transfer, only a very small number of people can be transferred. There must not be a large-scale transfer of people."
Zhao Shiyu's face was extremely pale, and his body was trembling slightly.
He gritted his teeth and said, "Do you know how densely populated the Huangfan District is?
At least ten million people...you gave so many people to the flood and the beasts in the heavens?"
Zhan Ying nodded and said: "Otherwise, there is no other choice."
Zhao Shiyu said sternly: "This is your way of killing your descendants!"
Zhan Ying said: "Ten years ago, I proposed to Yang Zhentian that I would send veterans from hundreds of battles to garrison Wangfu Ridge and Duoshi Peak. At that time, Yang Zhentian also scolded me, saying that my style of play was to eliminate descendants.
But in the end, Yang Shuai led the Zhenxi Army up.
In the end, it was proved that Wangfu Ridge and Duoshi Peak were the key to the battle of Yingzui Cliff.
Your Highness, the choice you face now is the same as that of Yang Shuai back then.
If you want to win this battle, resolve this catastrophe, and save all sentient beings in the world, the only way is the method I just mentioned.
This catastrophe will not be like the catastrophe in the era of evil gods that lasted for sixty or seventy years.
Five years is the limit for the catastrophe we face.
Therefore, within five years, the winner must be determined.
What His Highness has to do now is not to question Zhan Ying's tactics, but the people in the palace.
This battle plan is definitely top secret and cannot be known to the heavens, let alone the common people on earth.
Those who heard this battle plan today cannot stay."
Zhao Shiyu said in shock: "You asked me to kill the dozens of generals and staff in the palace to silence them?"
Zhan Ying said slowly: "Only the dead can keep secrets.
A living person can never keep a secret.
Your Highness, there are hundreds of millions of people in the world. If we don't fight like this, at least 90% of the people will die under the butcher's knife of heaven. Our civilization will be ended, and the prosperous world will return to the barbaric age.
.
If I follow my method, I am sure that at the end of the catastrophe, at least 40% of the world's population will be saved.
Everything must be done with the overall situation in mind, and please, Your Highness, never act like a woman!"
