Born a phoenix? The husband I picked up is the young emperor

Chapter 1677

Everyone knew that Jundong Mountain was a good place to set an ambush. In the early years, banditry was rampant, and merchants and escort companies were often harmed by them.

Later, after the imperial court rectified the situation, the bandit problem was eliminated, but the mountains were steep and the terrain was complex, and it was still a desolate place with few people.

In all historical battles, there were ambushes here in nine out of ten cases.

Since everyone knew the truth, Gedo would not have taken action here. But he did the opposite and set an ambush here. "

Moreover, the road ahead is open, and the vigilance of the northern wing army has been reduced to the lowest level.

Tang Xinghe suddenly knelt on one leg and said, "Your Majesty, I am willing to lead a thousand elite soldiers to disrupt the enemy's deployment."

Ma Chuyang immediately followed, "Your Majesty, I also want to fight."

Xing Mingyue and others volunteered to fight.

They are all young players.

Emperor Mingde and Cen Yuan looked at each other and asked in a deep voice, "One thousand elite soldiers? Do you know the minimum number of enemy troops?"

Tang Xinghe really did his homework this time, "The minimum is 5,000, and the maximum is 50,000. Because their commander is not only Ge Duo, but also the Wan State civil servant who was defeated earlier."

That’s right, this is the roundabout strategy used by the literati of the Wan State.

First, use 100,000 men to attack Zhuonan River. If we can win, that would be great. If we can't win, we should retreat immediately, so that the people of the North Wing can relax their vigilance and be happy for a while.

In fact, Wan State had already sent another 50,000 people to take a detour from other places, split up into small groups and enter the northern wing, and then meet up with the spies, aiming to directly capture Emperor Mingde.

When the emperor goes to war, the route is clear.

Moreover, the activities of offering sacrifices to the heavens and the rituals of going to war were all obvious and there was nothing that could be hidden.

Emperor Mingde's itinerary was completely under the control of the enemy.

As long as Emperor Mingde is killed, the morale of the northern wing army will be broken and there will be nothing to fear.

Cen Yuan asked calmly, "Tang Xinghe, are you sure you want to use a thousand elite soldiers to fight against fifty thousand people?"

Tang Xinghe was silent for a moment, his eyes flashing with tiny lights, "Sir, my goal is not to use a thousand elite soldiers to fight against fifty thousand, but... to flood the enemy's food and grass and cut off their supply."

Fifty thousand people! How can they survive without food and grass? Eat tree bark and grass roots?

"How do you flood it?" Emperor Mingde also became interested.

Tang Xinghe raised his chin and pointed at the area circled by Ma Chuyang. "There is a valley here, where the enemy's food and grass are hidden. We have explored it. The valley is surrounded by mountains, and there is snow on the top of the mountain. Now that spring has come and the flowers are blooming, the snow has melted into water and formed a waterfall."

Ma Chuyang excitedly continued, "We sneaked up to take a look. As long as we build a dam to store water, the water will break through the dam within two days and turn the valley into an ocean."

"Good plan!" Cen Yuan finally revealed a relieved smile, "I did my homework."

Tang Xinghe and Ma Chuyang both bowed and said, "Thank you, teacher, for teaching me well."

Xing Mingyue and others: "......"

If we follow suit at this time, will it seem like we are being too deliberate?

But he still caught up, and it was Wei Yu who straightened his head, "Thank you for your teachings, Mr.!"

Everyone bowed and saluted, "Thank you for your teachings, sir!"

Cen Yuan said these eight words calmly, quite like a gentleman, "Be cautious and keep working hard."

Tang Xinghe was beaming with joy again: "The student has a bold idea..."

Mr. Cen Yuan, who had just admonished him to be “guard against arrogance and impetuosity”, asked: “How bold are you?”

If you are not brave enough, I will beat you!

Tang Xinghe started to think wildly again, "Since the food and grass are destroyed, no matter whether Wan Kingdom sends 5,000 or 50,000 people, we can make them stay in Jundong Mountain."
