"Jiayao, what do you think?"
Yun Zheng suddenly called out Jia Yao.
However, Jia Yao did not react at all.
It wasn't until Shen Luoyan gently pulled her that she came out of her thoughts.
After Shen Luoyan repeated Yun Zheng's question to her, Jia Yao shook her head and said, "Neither siege nor attack is the best solution! The real good solution should be in... Your Highness's mind."
Jia Yao originally wanted to say the word "husband".
But thinking about what Yun Zheng had said before, that there was no Madam Jiayao and no princess here, he changed his words.
"Stop trying to sneak around with me!"
Yun Zheng smiled and glared at Jia Yao, "I asked you to express your opinion, not to figure out what I'm thinking."
asshole!
...
...
Jia Yao cursed inwardly.
After pondering for a moment, Jia Yao finally expressed his opinion.
"We don't even know how many troops Turtleback City has stockpiled. A strong attack is definitely not an option!"
"I just took a close look at the sand table and found that the terrain between the pseudo-city and Lingzhou is relatively open, which is suitable for cavalry to launch a large-scale raid."
"We can leave some cavalry to guard between Lingzhou and the pseudo-city, and concentrate our main forces to attack Gule or Yiwu..."
Jia Yao's idea was simple. They would make use of the advantages of their cavalry to block or harass the enemy forces that might raid Lingzhou while they were attacking Yiwu or Gul.
When necessary, raids can also be launched from other places to support the siege army.
First, concentrate your forces to capture one of these two cities and establish a forward stronghold.
Then, try to seize the turtle's back.
As long as the turtle's back is broken, the fake city will lose its strategic value.
Although the point they are currently discussing is the fake city, Turtleback City is the most important point.
As long as we can break through the turtle's back, victory is basically assured.
After listening to Jia Yao's analysis, many people nodded.
Although Jia Yao was defeated repeatedly by Yun Zheng, it must be said that Jia Yao's strategic vision is indeed unique.
After her analysis, the situation on the entire battlefield became clear.
Finally, Jia Yao said: "If possible, just abandon Yiwu and Gule and go straight to Guibei. This fake city in front of us may fall by itself without a fight."
“That’s not very realistic.”
Yun Zheng shook his head and said, "If we go straight to Turtle's Back, our army will be attacked from all sides! In addition, we are not very clear about the terrain behind the enemy, and it is easy for us to be ambushed by the enemy."
"This is indeed a problem." Jia Yao nodded in agreement, "So, I would like to hear your opinion."
“No hurry.”
Yun Zheng chuckled, "Our army has just arrived, so we have to rest for two days. Let's discuss it first, and I will tell you my opinion later."
Hearing Yun Zheng's words, everyone couldn't help but smile at each other.
They also realized that Yun Zheng was training them.
In this case, let's stop procrastinating.
After consulting Yun Zheng, all the generals gathered in front of the sand table to discuss.
Jia Yao didn't go over, but stood up and walked in front of Yun Zheng, pointing at the huge map hanging there and asked: "Did Your Highness draw this map himself?"
"Um."
Yun Zheng nodded and smiled, "Don't be so polite. Although there is no Madam Jiayao here, you don't have to call me Your Highness all the time. Just call me whatever comes to your mind."
Smoothly?
Jia Yao curled his lips secretly.
asshole?
Damn Yun Zheng?
These two names are easy to pronounce, but can she call them that in front of so many people?
Jia Yao shook off the messy thoughts in his mind and said excitedly: "I don't quite understand this map. Can you teach me how to read it?"
"You can see it clearly by combining it with the sand table."
Yun Zheng smiled and said, "This is just a rough sketch. You don't need to understand it too clearly. If the outside is low and the inside is high, it means it is convex outwards, and if the outside is high and the inside is low, it means it is concave inwards. Just pay attention to the numbers above and you will know..."
The map drawn by Yun Zheng is nothing more than a map with contour lines.
However, he did not have any modern precision surveying tools, so it looked fancy, but it was actually just a sketch.
The height and so on were all estimated by him.
The reason why he drew this map was that he didn't want to have to make a new sand table every time the commander moved.
With this map, you don't need to make a sand table all the time.
Jiayao is very smart.
Yun Zheng taught her briefly and she knew how to look at it.
"You are so smart. You have figured out this method of drawing a map."
Jia Yao sighed sincerely.
Once you learn how to read this map, you can see the terrain clearly even without a sand table.
This map is especially useful for quick raids.
“Ahem…”
Yun Zheng's face turned red. "I didn't come up with this idea. I saw it in that strange book."
"Really?"
Jia Yao was half-believing and half-doubting.
"Okay, go discuss it with them!"
Yun Zheng nodded at the people gathered in front of the sand table.
"What's the point of me discussing with them?" Jia Yao frowned: "The key now is your judgment."
"What's my judgment?"
Yun Zheng was puzzled.
"It's the possibility you told me about at the Yanhuishan camp."
Jia Yao didn't know whether Yun Zheng was pretending or had really forgotten his previous guess, and whispered: "If Lou Yi wants to attack from the Guifang side, then all his arrangements here are to delay us."
"Well, you don't have to discuss it with them."
Yun Zheng smiled and motioned Jia Yao to go back and sit down.
Since Jia Yao has thought of this, there is really not much to discuss.
Jia Yao glanced at Yun Zheng and cursed him as a bastard in her heart.
He was really acting crazy just now!
So, Yun Zheng also thinks that Lou Yi is deliberately creating confusion to delay them?
In this situation, will Lou Yi really fight back?
How many troops did the various tribes in western Mo support the Dayue Kingdom?
Suddenly, Jia Yao felt very depressed.
The military strength of other countries increased as the war went on, but that of Beihuan became less and less.
However, if Dayue wants to provide food and fodder to the troops of the various tribes in western Mo, given Dayue's national strength, it should not be able to afford it, right?
If they were forced to bear the burden, the people of Dayue would probably have no choice but to eat grass and tree bark.
Or did the tribes in western Mo bring their own food and fodder?
If the troops of the various tribes in the western part of the desert really bring their own food and fodder, perhaps we can start with the food and fodder.
As he thought about it, Jia Yao's mind became active again.
"You don't want to hit Iya, do you?"
Jia Yao suddenly asked Yun Zheng.
By taking Yiwu, on the one hand, they could threaten Guibei City, and on the other hand, they could march toward the border between the Moxi tribes and the Dayue Kingdom, thus threatening the retreat of the troops of the Moxi tribes.
Once the retreat routes of the troops of the western desert tribes are cut off, they will inevitably fall into panic.
Now might be the best time to defeat them in one fell swoop.
Yun Zheng shook his head slightly and opened his mouth, but no sound came out.
"Fake city!"
Jia Yao still figured it out from Yun Zheng’s mouth shape.
Fake city?
Jia Yao suddenly became confused.
Why did Yun Zheng attack the fake city?
If the troops of the various tribes in the western part of the desert were included, Yiwu should have greater strategic value, right?
