In the Tianlang military camp and the general's tent, a huge military map was nailed to an upright wooden board, with the mountains and rivers marked on it, as well as the sphere of influence of the southern Baiyue Mansion and the Baiyue tribe.
There are stacks of documents and classics on the desk, all of which are detailed introductions to the various tribes in Baiyue, including which tribes, what they are good at, the martial arts divisions of Baiyue, etc. These were sent over by Zhao Tuo.
What Lin Ze saw was that the blood flowing between the lines was the blood of soldiers from both sides.
After Han Xin and Chen Ping had read all the information, Lin Ze asked: "The land of Baiyue is so vast, where can the Sirius army go? Do you two have any good suggestions?"
Han Xin joined the Sirius Army for the first time and suddenly occupied a high position. Naturally, he wanted to show off. He saluted Hu Hai and Lin Ze, walked to the map and analyzed:
"According to existing information, the Zhengnan Camp is now located in the Hanoi area. The threatening Baiyue tribes and monsters within a hundred miles have been eliminated. It is basically a safe zone. The Baiyue tribes have already migrated to the Vientiane area and belong to the enemy.
district."
"Currently, the tribes of Baiyue are relying on Wudom. The terrain of Sichuan Expansion is difficult, and there are poisonous miasma and monsters as a barrier. It is difficult for the Qin army to overcome it. They are in a stalemate with our army in this mountain forest to the north of the mountain. Every year, there are countless people from both sides.
Each battle has its own winner or loser."
"Therefore, the general will prefer to march to the area from Hadi to Banwen. The terrain in this section is relatively flat, and it is faintly covered by the southern army. There will be many small-scale battles, and the security is high. It is very suitable for the inexperienced Sirius Army.
new army."
Chen Ping added on the side: "And in this area, it is relatively close to the camp, so food, grass, ordnance and other supplies can be guaranteed. If the war is slightly unfavorable, it will be convenient for our army to withdraw to the camp."
The two people have surprisingly consistent views, that is, safety is the priority.
Hu Hai then turned to Lin Ze and asked, "Lin Ze, what do you think?"
Lin Ze had already communicated with Xiao Jin in his mind, scanned and analyzed all the data, and had a plan in mind, but he did not answer directly, but said: "Didn't Marquis Longchuan say that he would arrange for an experienced general to come and assist us?
Calculating the time, it should be here soon, why not listen to what he has to say first."
Hu Hai felt something was wrong and said: "The situation of the Heavenly Wolf Army is still somewhat inconsistent with that of the Southern Conquest Army. I'm afraid it's not appropriate to listen to them?"
Lin Ze smiled and replied: "Of course I am not listening to them, but asking them to introduce the situation in each place in more detail. Only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you be victorious in every battle."
While they were talking, soldiers came to report that there was a general at the gate of the camp, who claimed to have been ordered by Marquis Longchuan to come and pay homage to the young master.
Lin Ze stood up and said to Hu Hai: "He's here, I'll welcome him in."
Hu Hai curled his lips and said: "Lin Ze, why do you value the people sent by Zhao Tuo so much?"
Lin Ze's smile faded and he said seriously: "Master, after all, we are on someone else's territory. Besides, we are weaker now. Showing a little humility can help us have more friends and fewer enemies, and even get some support. So,
The development of power is beneficial. When we are strong in the future, it will not be too late to make a high-profile statement, so please keep this in mind, sir."
Hu Hai's face froze and he muttered: "I'll just say it casually, you go and greet him."
Lin Ze walked to the gate of the camp and saw a sturdy general standing there with two personal guards. It was the one who was called Ren Xiao last night. A faint smile appeared on his face and he said:
"I'm Linze. My young master specially sent me to greet the general. Please come in." After saying this, he made a gesture of invitation.
Ren Xiao also smiled with a smile on his face and clasped his fists and said: "I am ashamed to say that I am not worthy enough to be welcomed by the masters of the country. Mr. Lin, you should invite me first."
Lin Ze kept smiling, but did not insist. He walked in front to lead the way. Since someone pointed out his identity as a disciple of the Imperial Master, he was too modest and seemed too hypocritical, which aroused resentment.
Ren Xiao entered the camp and met with Hu Hai.
Lin Ze asked directly: "The Sirius Army intends to go out in the near future, how can General Ren teach me?"
Ren Xiao shook his head and said: "It is just after spring, and poisonous insects and monsters are spreading everywhere. The Sirius army has no experience in jungle warfare, so I am afraid that it will suffer a lot of losses. The general does not recommend that the young master go out now. If the young master cannot wait,
You can go to the Muzhou area first, there are only sporadic Yue people living nearby, so it is relatively safe."
Lin Ze coughed and said: "General Ren, please introduce the situation of the Baiyue clan in detail, and we will refer to it for reference."
Ren Xiao looked at the map and talked for an hour.
After hearing this, Lin Ze pointed directly at a point on the picture: "This is it, the Sirius army is hunting the Nankang River area."
Ren Xiao quickly advised: "Master Lin, please think twice. The Nankang River is not a kind place. The terrain there is flat and there are many monsters. It is also the most important hunting place for Nanzhao and Baiyue."
"The general does not agree with the Tianlang Army's expedition here. First, this place is too far from the main camp, and it is difficult to supply food, grass and ordnance. It may easily cause short-term food shortages, which is detrimental to the morale of the army; second, it belongs to the hunting range of the Nanzhao tribe.
, if the Heavenly Wolf Army sets out to conquer this place, I am afraid that it will face a joint attack from Baiyue and Nanzhao, and the Heavenly Wolf Army is too weak alone, so it is really too dangerous."
Lin Ze replied with an extremely positive tone: "As for grain and grass, our Daqin has powerful ships and ships, and it can be transported by water, so there is basically no worries. My son will negotiate with Longchuan Marquis to ensure this as much as possible."
"As for safety? Since we are on an expedition, how can we still expect to be under protection? Without the protection of a large camp, we can't go on an expedition? Why did the wolf army come to southern Xinjiang that day? It's better to stay in Chang'an and catch the thieves and bandits."
Seeing Lin Ze's determination, Ren Xiao turned to persuade him, "That section of the Nankang River is just a place where people hunt and live in villages. The Sirius Army may not be able to gain anything by going there."
Lin Ze smiled brightly: "Have you ever caught fish, general? If the Tianlang Army throws such a fragrant bait, are you afraid that Baiyue and Nanzhao will not take the bait? As for who is coming, it is the same for Da Qin.
Damn it." After saying that, he looked directly at Hu Hai.
Hu Hai understood immediately, and without waiting for Ren Xiao's further persuasion, he suddenly said: "General, just talk to Marquis Longchuan. I won't bother General about the rest. I will make my own decision."
Ren Xiao sighed, with a look of helplessness on his face, and had to go back in a hurry to report to Zhao Tuo.
After the others left, Hu Hai asked: "Lin Ze, even Ren Xiao thinks the Nankang River is dangerous, why do you insist on going there?"
Lin Ze replied calmly: "Sir, first of all, we have to make it clear that we came to Southern Xinjiang to build the Sirius Army into a truly elite force, not just for melee combat."
"When we do anything, we ultimately consider what we want in order to make the choice that suits us best. Even if it is a bit dangerous, it is also an opportunity, isn't it?"
After speaking, Lin Ze turned to Han Xin: "Are you confident?"
Han Xin was full of confidence: "Yes."
Soon Ren Xiao came back, and brought back a personal letter from Zhao Tuo: The Sirius Army can go anywhere, and the Zhengnan Camp will fully cooperate. Ren Xiao was also ordered to bring four worshipers and five hundred elites to protect the son's safety.
Hu Hai handed the letter to Lin Ze, who smiled after reading it: "Thank you, Marquis Longchuan, for your strong support."
Then he ordered: "Han Xin, I order you to replenish food, grass and weapons within one day, assemble the army on standby, and set off early the day after tomorrow."
