Shen Tang wants to deploy 20,000 soldiers and horses to attack Qiu Wenyan. Not only Qiu Cheng has never dreamed of this, but even Shen Tang's own civil servants are surprised. After all, this move is too risky, and not everyone likes to walk on a tightrope at high altitudes. Stimulate.
Jiang Sheng: "...Please, my lord, think twice before you act."
By the way, I would like to slander Kangshi for leading the lord into evil.
There is nothing wrong with what you like at a young age, like gambling.
Shen Tang looked innocent and said, "I thought twice."
This was her decision after "thinking twice".
Jiang Sheng could only patiently analyze the pros and cons to Shen Tang - his family knew his own affairs, and his background was not as weak as outsiders thought. It would be very difficult to swallow up the entire Sibao County with more than 10,000 troops, but it would take several months and a half. It's not difficult to eat half of it.
Qiu Cheng, as the defender of the city, has certain advantages. He can plan slowly and does not necessarily have to be radical.
Furthermore——
If Qiu Cheng is taken down easily, it will expose his own strength, attract unnecessary covetousness and alertness, and establish enemies prematurely, which is not conducive to future expansion. It is better to delay the war to mislead the outside world, which is also a wise way to protect himself.
Shen Tang also thought carefully about Jiang Sheng's proposal.
But in the end I still wanted to stick to the original plan.
She also has her own reasons.
"...If it were any other time, I would definitely adopt Xianden's suggestion. Making money silently is the most suitable thing for me. However, the current situation is different. Zheng Qiao is in danger of being overthrown. The dragon-slaying game seems to be in a stalemate, but in fact It’s the most critical time to decide the outcome. If we don’t enter, we may not even be able to drink a sip of soup. When Huang Lie and others finish carving up, the butcher’s knife will immediately turn around.”
Shen Tang might become a fat sheep.
Or join in early and shamelessly.
Or seize the opportunity to expand around.
Shen Tang didn't need to hesitate much.
As an adult, what choice do you make?
Naturally, I want both.
It's just that the steps are arranged in order.
Jiang Sheng pondered for a few breaths: "It was said two years ago that he would not live long, but he caused harm to all parties and is still alive today. Sheng carefully considered this person and found that he is violent and violent, but he is extremely good at manipulating people's hearts. He is not greedy for gold or silver. Wealth, carriages and beauties, fame and wealth, but we are willing to part with the meat and raise a group of jackals, tigers and leopards that smell the meat... A centipede insect will die without becoming stiff."
Shen Tang and Zheng Qiao are both partial subjects.
The former has more civility and less martial arts, while the latter has more martial arts and less literature.
He spent a lot of money to raise a lot of dogs. He firmly controlled the military power in his hands, and the military power protected the heads on his neck.
Although Huang Lie has the ability to raise puppets on a large scale, behind the powerful force of these puppets are also burning human lives, money and food. It is hard to say whether Huang Lie could not hold on first, or Zheng Qiao was first bitten by the jackals and tigers and leopards who had raised their appetites by his own hands. .
"As long as Zheng Qiao holds back Huang Lie and other ambitious forces, we can still feel at ease and manage ourselves..."
Shen Tang looked at the scenery outside the window.
I just sighed: "It's too small."
Jiang Sheng was surprised: "Too young?"
Shen Tang: "Longwu County is too small."
The reason for sending troops to Qiucheng was not just because Nanyu County was robbed. She felt pity for the common people in the territory and felt sorry for the hard-won food, but these two points alone were not enough to make her so determined to send troops. The incident in Nanyu County was only How many people died?
Once the two forces go to war, the casualties will only be ten times or even dozens of times, or even hundreds of times more tragic.
By then——
How many common people have lost blood relatives?
How many families have lost their breadwinner?
The hatred of Nanyu County is not unbearable.
The real reason was that she had to use troops!
She circled the map of Longwu County with her fingers. Her young face lost its usual playful and relaxed look, and was replaced by a restrained, deep and steady look, with dark eyes.
"In the past two years, we have been working hard to take in refugees from all walks of life. If we want the refugees to truly settle down, we need to give them land, let them farm, let them have food and clothing, and give them stability. Only then will they be kind to this land and grateful to the government. , admire me. But Longwu County is too small, the fields are limited, and the number of refugees is still increasing, but the cultivated land will not increase."
"Climb in first, it's dangerous."
"This is the beginning of the turmoil!"
"I never believe in 'simple folk customs'. When you feed them, they will be amiable, kind and simple to everyone. But if you try to make them hungry? Hehe, anyone will kill someone just for a morsel of food! They also They will raise their hoe and sickle to me! But they will not take in the refugees? Then how to recruit more soldiers and horses? Produce more food? There is only one answer."
Shen Tang laughed coldly.
"We need our neighbors' land."
Her tone was relaxed and a little cruel.
"Anyway, Qiu Fumiyan can't manage it well, can he?"
"This is just like internal conflicts cannot be coordinated, and the best way is to go to war externally, so that conflicts can be transferred or alleviated."
"My reputation actually did not start from Heyin County, but from Sibao County to be precise. How many people in Sibao County remember me is unknown for the time being, but I did work hard for them and win their hearts and minds. relatively easy."
It's her who wants to fight.
Qiu Cheng handed over the pillow.
Jiang Sheng was convinced that his lord had really thought it over carefully after hearing this. He also knew that Longwu County, a small county, could support 25,000 garrison troops and 20,000 border guards. Without Shen Tang's hard work, it would be impossible. The pressure was too great. Need an outlet.
Looking at it this way——
Qiucheng is indeed very considerate.
Jiang Sheng bowed his hands deeply and said solemnly: "My lord has made a decision and has the city in his heart. If you win, you should try your best to follow him."
Shen Tang suddenly showed up and smiled, sweeping away the deep and sinister tone just now, and even his tone became lighter: "Suddenly I remembered - Xian Deng, if we pull out 20,000 people in one go this time, everyone will think so. Is there no one at home? If Qiu Wenyan or the people he recruits want to 'surround Wei and save Zhao' or 'draw money from the bottom of the cauldron'... then it will be interesting and there will be no less excitement."
Jiang Sheng: "..."
He thought about the scene for a while.
It's really lively.
No one could have imagined that Shen Tang would target the border garrison. Not only did he dare to think about it, he actually did it...
After the discussion between Shen Tang and Jiang Sheng was over, the official office held another small meeting, the main content of which was to confirm the list of personnel for the battle.
According to her wishes, young people like Tu Rong, Lin Feng, and Lu Ji all went out to gain experience and experience.
Only when one's own side has truly established a firm foothold can female warriors/scribes like Bai Su truly appear fearlessly.
Until then, feel free to grow.
As for the battle plan——
Should we divide the troops or attack together?
Chu Yao and others had surprisingly unanimous opinions.
"Combined attack!"
Qishan used his spare time to look at his wronged cousin and said, "We might as well let Ji Shou lead a force of a thousand troops to harass his eyes and ears. With the remaining troops gathered together, it shouldn't be a problem to take over the neighboring Linshan County."
Kang Shi pointed at himself: "Why?"
There was resistance in his tone.
He is the only reliable scribe in the Lord's account. The main force in the battle will not take him with him, but are ready to release all the brave warriors?
