Otherworldly Castle Era

Vol 4 Chapter 158: Before the expedition

Li Bao was not surprised when he heard that Li Jing's purpose was the same as him. After all, he had this idea. As Xia Guo's military second only to Yang Song, it is normal to have this requirement and consciousness.

Yang Song’s order was for Li Jing to command the Army of the Land and Li Bao to command the Sea. According to this principle, Li Jing had no direct command over Li Bao, but it was the same principle. Who made Li Jing the deputy director of the Military Department? , Still has certain jurisdiction over him.

Afterwards, Di Qing said: "What is the general's order, please give me an order, and I will definitely obey the order in the end!"

Li Jing glanced at Di Qing, did not say much, just let the generals sit down, and then continued: "Soon the king will send envoys to pass on foreign countries, large and small outside the pass, so that they will become ministers. It must be that the foreign countries will not follow. At that time, it will be time for me to be loyal to the country and to the king. Therefore, during this period, I must be prepared, check for missing vacancies, and formulate military policies, so that I can listen to the king’s orders at any time and be ready to march."

Although Yang Song's order is now issued, when and how to send troops, there are still rules. Even if you want to train your troops, you have to be famous for your division.

"Yes, the final general will take the order, and you can always listen to the great king's instructions!" The generals lead the order.

"Very good." Li Jing continued: "General Li Bao, commander-in-chief of the sea route, it is inconvenient for this general to speak more, let's discuss the land dispatch first."

"The general is serious." When Li Bao heard this, he immediately said: "The king has great love. Although the general is in the position of commander of the sea, the general is the chief officer of the military department. Any instructions, the final general must follow Employment compliance."

Li Bao's words mean Li Jing understands it, just like Li Bao knows that Li Jing's words are just an aversion to suspicion. He Li Bao listened to Li Jing's words because of his position. If there is something wrong with Li Jing. Although he Li Bao would follow suit, he would also report to Yang Song for a decision.

"General Li Bao is too modest. General Li Bao is the authority on maritime matters, and this general is inconvenient to intervene." Li Jing said that was correct, which is why Yang Song made Li Bao the commander of the sea.

After talking with Li Bao for a few words, Li Jing returned to the topic and said to Di Qing, Huo Qubing and others: "This general believes that on land, after the king's expedition order is issued, the first expedition must do its best, and the first division and the cavalry division will attack together. , To carry out devastating blows to all targets."

While talking, Li Jing stood up and faced the map hanging on the wall behind him, and gestured at the location around the northern vassal country.

He continued to say: "After it has reduced the viable combat power of the various states, it will not occupy the city, withdraw its troops and return to the customs, and then let the divisions and regiments take turns to attack, and continue to launch harassment wars until the foreign countries surrender!"

After Li Jing finished talking about the tactics he came up with, and seeing everyone thinking about his tactics, he explained: "The reason why he tried his best in the first battle is to train the soldiers so that the soldiers can experience what a real group battle is. , And the second is to provide a deterrent to the enemy and minimize its effective combat power."

Li Jing saw that the soldiers had some enlightenment following his explanation, and then explained: "The purpose of withdrawing troops to return to the country is not to force the enemy too much and allow them to surrender easily. There are also logistical cost considerations."

Regardless of other people’s thoughts, Li Jing has explained it to this point. It must be finished: "In the end, the divisions and regiments took turns to fight for the purpose of training. This will test the endurance and independent combat ability of the soldiers. Of course, It's also to make foreign nations have to surrender in the end."

At this point in the explanation, Li Jing can be considered as finished. Now I will wait for the opinions of the other generals. If not, then the land attack will be decided. Of course, this is only a strategic deployment. The specific battles and tactics will be Adjust measures to local conditions and wait for opportunities.

Li Jing said it was for this reason. How could the rest of the generals have any opinions, and Di Qing, Lu Su and others also agreed. Even if Huo Qubing, who is alone with some special cases, can't think of a better way at this moment.

With all the generals’ approval, although Li Jing did not reveal anything, he was still very satisfied. He then looked at Li Bao and said, “General Li Bao, this is the case with land. I don’t know if Li’s policy is for the generals. Some help?"

"Where is General Li, the final admiral." Li Bao admired Li Jing from the heart, admired the opponent's strategy, and also admired the other party's comprehensive thinking. Even if the military cost was taken into consideration, he admired Li Jing even more. No matter what direction it is from, he can't think of any omissions.

After Li Bao clasped his fist and said "admiration", he continued: "The general's strategy is simple and extraordinary, but it is not fictitious, so that the general has learned! This policy is more than just'help' for the general. Simple!"

"Haha, General Li Bao praised it." Li Jing couldn't help but touched the beard of his chin when he heard Li Bao's heartfelt praise, and smiled: "If I can provide help to General Li Bao, Li is worthy of the great trust of the king. ."

After Li Jing laughed, he asked Li Bao: "I wonder if General Li Bao is convenient. Can I talk to Li and the generals about the strategy of sending troops by sea?"

In fact, Li Jing is doing his own duty to ask this question. His current position is very sensitive. He must perform his duties without interfering too much. He must grasp the degree of it, or even if he really does not do what he wants, it will be considered when the time comes. If Yang Songming didn't say anything, the others would also have other opinions.

"The general is really serious." Hearing Li Jing's question, Li Bao thought for a while, and replied: "After learning the general's strategy, the general will have a strategy at the end, and I would like to invite General Li and the generals to taste it."

"But it's okay to say it." Li Jing waved a big hand, indicating that he didn't have any scruples and could speak freely.

Li Bao clasped his fists to all the generals present, then walked to the front of the map and pointed to the northern coastline and said: "The policy of the final general is different from that of General Li."

In the curious and expectant gazes of Li Jing and others~www.novelmtl.com~Li Baojie said: "Naval battles are different from land. The soldiers of the whole army rely on warships, and it is the same reason that the soldiers are few."

When Li Jing and others heard Li Bao's words, they all nodded in agreement. Li Bao continued: "When confronting the enemy, the warship must take the first place, followed by the land warfare. Even so, the coastal land warfare must be aided by warships."

"However, the northern coastal foreign countries have no ships against us. Therefore!" Li Bao talked about the reasons for a long time before talking about the main point. I saw him raise his voice and speed up his speech: "The sea route will spread out from the beginning, raid coastal cities, land on beaches, and land battles with them. After victory, occupy the city and use this as a support, and then go on. The strategy of training and persecution."

Li Bao finished the strategy he thought of in one breath. Although some areas still need to be improved, the overall strategy will not change.

How different is his strategy from Li Jing's, such as not making the first battle and then withdrawing troops in rounds. His strategy is to do his utmost from the beginning, divide the troops into multiple paths, and train troops in various places along the coast.

The reason for this is mostly caused by different combat environments, and the general idea is still the same, in order to complete the act of surrender during training.
