Chapter 608

"As expected, Murong Ke is tightening his forces."

There are many people standing around the huge sand table. The sand table is a reduced version of the mountains and rivers of Yan state. The above areas are filled with small flags representing the enemy and ourselves.

Because it is a reduced version of the sand table, you can see the changes in the war situation in detail, such as the distribution of the enemy and ourselves on the hill water battlefield, as well as the "our army" in other areas and the known enemy positions. The "our army" has detailed and correct data on the strength, while the enemy can only determine who the commander is, but can not achieve accurate data.

In fact, this sand table was not made during the invasion of Murong Yan state. It was made long before the invasion of Murong Yan state, and more than one was made.

The Taiwei Department has been conducting a deduction on the sand table with the same layout. Under the long-term deduction, it has almost "demonstrated" what may happen. The paper material for recording the military chess deduction alone weighs seven or eight hundred kilograms.

In short, how to invade Murong Yanguo has long been deliberated. It is not something that can be brought into full play only after waiting for the army to enter the predetermined position and launch the invasion. It is that the army has a pre plan for what will happen.

Of course, military chess deduction is only to push and study what may happen, not to say what will happen in the development process of war, what kind of development will happen, and what kind of plan will be used. If you encounter a "Scene" that did not happen during the deduction, you still have to be flexible.

In modern times, the rich have their own planning team, and the state and top consortia have think tanks, which are dedicated to doing countless possible deliberation and Research on what will happen in the future, or to do something. There is not only one set of plan, but to prepare a plan no matter what happens. They are by no means idle.

Many times, being prepared and not being prepared are two different things, especially when a war goes through repeated deduction in advance and doesn't do anything.

Liu Yan smiled and said, "use the 37th plan."

In the case of invading Murong Yan state, the state of Han has made hundreds of big plans, and there are a large number of small plans under each big plan. It is the result of concerted efforts, not just a person with extraordinary intelligence.

In fact, before the Han army went south, the relevant systems had been established, but every new thing should have a development process and be improved slowly in the exploration. If the Han army was still young when it attacked and destroyed Li Chenghan and the small imperial court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, it has become mature after two or three years of development.

Xu Zheng is wondering now. Since the rehearsal before the war and the preparation of possible events in advance, he found that the importance of the commander-in-chief was decreasing again and again, and he doubted whether the commander-in-chief was needed for further development.

Seeing Xu Zheng's depression, sang Yu whispered, "although there are countless kinds of deduction, what reaction should be made after what happened, and whether the reaction is fast or slow can still determine the victory or defeat."

Xu Zheng couldn't hear the words. Several people who heard them had their own expressions and mentality, but they had to agree with Sang Yu's thorough words.

It is very clear that those who make up their minds will never disappear, and war will not need a commander because there are countless plans in advance. After all, no matter what preparations are made in advance, when to respond, and whether the response time is timely, it can still make the same thing have different results.

However, we have to seriously admit one fact, that is, because we have made relevant plans through concerted efforts in advance, the importance of the commander-in-chief has been reduced, which also indicates that the threshold of the commander-in-chief is no longer so high.

The reality is that. Ran min is very happy now. He belongs to the kind of person who has a keen sense of smell before the war, but he didn't care about the surrounding terrain before the war. He didn't know what to do in advance. For people like him who rely on intuition to fight, he is extremely dependent on the think tank team. The military system of the Han country is only good for him and has no harm at all. Naturally, he is so happy that he grins to his ears.

The Han army suddenly carried out a large number of attacks with the help of water transportation. It was a change brought about by the war situation on the north line. Murong Ke would know the upheaval on the north line sooner or later. His normal reaction would be to leave the necessary blocking forces and then withdraw.

The same is to leave the blocking forces and then withdraw. What kind of mentality to do the same thing will have different effects. The reaction to knowing what happened, and the reaction under suspicion, is definitely different in mentality.

Never underestimate what you do based on what mentality. You know that you do the same thing with a different mentality from paranoia. Determination and hesitation will produce a time gap in doing things and whether your will is firm. Even a second of hesitation in war will have serious consequences, let alone the contrast brought by different will.

The troops that landed from Rushui came from the garrison in the territory of Han state in Eastern Liaoning, which was the garrison that Liu Yan landed in Eastern Liaoning and occupied the peninsula in the early stage, and then continued to encroach on the territory of murongyan state, which has been in a state of war.

The number of garrisons in Eastern Liaoning has always been maintained at more than 30000. No matter what the war in the Central Plains is, they have never been transferred, and they have not been assigned to any shogunate sequence. It should be said that they are the only troops like the border army in the Han country. This army has been in a state of confrontation with Murong Yan army for a long time. It should be the Han army who knows the tactics of Murong Yan army best.

At present, the state of Han has opened the prelude to the war against Yan. Murong Yan is no longer a threat to Liaodong Peninsula. LV Tai tried to put the garrison of Liaodong peninsula into his shogunate sequence, but it was precisely because Liaodong Garrison has its own role to be responsible for in relevant plans.

If you count the nearly 50000 forbidden guards, the Han state has invested 200000 troops in the Yan annihilation battlefield, and even the troops of those affiliated countries are more than 370000.

However, it must be said that the armies of those affiliated countries are getting worse and worse. Before, they could carry a wave in the face of Murong Yan army, which evolved into a single charge by mink and leopard cavalry.

The layout of the 370000 troops in total is 80000 led by Liu Yan on the Qiushui battlefield, 50000 Tuoba troops temporarily abandoned by the commander of the northern line, 50000 under the East shogunate, 20000 Liaodong garrison troops transferred, and 170000 united by several affiliated countries.

These troops invaded Murong Yan state from many directions, with the largest number of Eastern battlefields in Murong Yan state, but the invasion of the eastern battlefields was the most difficult.

"It's also difficult to recruit general Dong." Xu Zheng felt that he needed to say something Fair: "the domestic situation in Koguryo is becoming more and more unstable. Not only the domestic Qianshou is constantly making trouble, but also the soldiers in the army are resisting our command. Baiji and Xinluo also show signs of deterioration. They are afraid that we will destroy the state of Yan together with them."

In fact, the top rulers of Koguryo, Baiji and Silla dare not show disrespect to the state of Han, but they indulge the people below to soft resist or exclude the state of Han in other ways. At this stage, the affiliated countries are ready to collapse in the face of Murong Yan's army, which is one of those small moves. In addition, it has evolved into a delay in the speed of supply of baggage, which can not be despised by the Han country.

"They are indulging, and so are we." Ji Chang smiled coldly: "although they don't do anything, we will also clean up, but it's better to be famous."

The current Han Dynasty is not the same as the previous Central Plains dynasties.

The former Central Plains Dynasty may not have such great ambitions for the territory, may be unable to catch or resist the laborer's expedition, or it may be that it liked to leave a few younger brothers to kneel and lick, fell in love with the Chinese posture of kneeling and licking, and then ignored or appeased, or even gave preferential treatment to those small countries that could be destroyed easily.

Liu Yan established the Han state because of his will. He had a clear goal from the beginning. He must work to recover the old land of the Han family in an all-round way. Koguryo's territory is the old land of the Han family, and Baiji's northern territory is also the old land of the Han family, which belongs to a country that must be eliminated. As for Xinluo? Koguryo and Baiji will be destroyed, so there is no need to stay.

Liu Yan once made a public speech that a powerful country does not need allies at all. What a powerful country needs is one object after another that can destroy and seize resources.

In fact, the tiger and elk as friends violate the laws of nature. The tiger should kill the elk, eat its meat, drink its blood, taste its bones and swallow its tendons, so that the elk can become its own nutrients and have the strength to find new hunting targets while strengthening itself.

What Liu Yan wants is an endless aggressive country. When the Chinese Miao people still belong to the "chosen people", they will continue to explore. Otherwise, sooner or later, it will be the end of "heaven will not take it, and they will be blamed".

History has repeatedly proved that in the long history, the Chinese Miao people have never realized the reality of being "the chosen people". They are even trapped in the strange circle they have built and can't extricate themselves. They waste the opportunity that they can become the only overlord again and again. They play the drama of Dynasty change by themselves, and then suddenly their heads are hit by a mallet from Europe in the false self-esteem, Knock that one down.

Liu Yan, who is not a historian, doesn't quite understand what happened in the past dynasties. He only cares whether he can do it or not. Let's talk about it again. Anyway, no matter how far he develops outward, he belongs to making money.

"Gunpowder can be used." Liu Yan's mouth aroused a cruel smile: "three days, within three days, I want to see the collapse of Murong Yanjun's so-called defense line."

Gunpowder? Liu Yan knew more or less what the composition was, but he still didn't fall down. After long-term experiments and experiments, he came up with lethal gunpowder.

This time, the Han army invaded Murong Yan state. There were no guns and muskets, but there were a lot of explosives and grenades.

To be honest, gunpowder manufacturing does not need to enter the high-end mode at the beginning. How convenient and how to come is the first choice. The next step is not to make any guns, but to start with guns.

Liu Yan has some concept about how to make guns or muskets, but there is no way for him to preside over the whole process. In addition to not having that time, he also doesn't understand smelting technology, metal combination and the composition of parts.

It is no exaggeration to say that everyone will eat pork. What is the distribution of internal organs in pigs? Where can you stab them? How to decompose pork? How many do you know?

More frankly, are modern people familiar with bicycles? However, to make a bicycle from scratch, we must first mine metal ore for refining, smelt the metal with qualified quality, and then shape the metal. The structural proportion of each part is correct, and the support parts are made, and the assembly still needs to be tested again and again. Think about how many processes and steps it is? This is the biggest difference between users and manufacturers.

Liu Yan is no longer hiding, which indicates that the form of World War has ushered in a sublimation of quality. Gunpowder was used in war for the first time in the world, and appeared in Qiushui battlefield

"Ready!"

"Fire!"

"Let go!"

One after another, they are no longer throwing stone bombs this time, but some explosive packages that have been ignited.

The fuse of the explosive bag flashed sparks. They fell to the ground after a period of shooting in mid air. Of course, one of Murong Yanjun's soldiers fell to the ground. He felt very painful. It was expected that the mutilation of a stone did not happen. He only felt very lucky. Then he flashed a light in front of him in the ecstasy of happiness, Also lost consciousness in a moment of surprise.

Hasty and violent explosions continued to appear in the mountain fortifications. As Murong Yanjun who was bombed, he didn't have much time to sigh. Those who died directly died. More people were disabled and deaf. The next moment was not scared to flee, but a kind of stupidity standing in place.

After the explosion, the battlefield became strangely quiet. From the perspective of the Han Army, the complex and solid fortifications had been fragmented. There were rubble and wood brought up by the explosion everywhere. There were some mutilated bodies and broken limbs. People directly at the center of the explosion were evaporated.

"Er... Er... ER!!!" Out of curiosity about gunpowder, ran min came to the front line and was frightened by only one wave. After he reacted, his face was very ferocious and went to the direction of the riprap truck. After he passed, he trembled, picked up a bag of explosives and said incoherently: "good thing, good thing, but... With this thing, personal courage... What is it?"

The good question is again raised. For example, the emergence of the crossbow is a blow to the training of martial arts. After all, the bow has to be trained. The crossbow is a child who can kill by pulling the trigger. It is precisely because of the emergence of the crossbow that the Warring States evolved from a samurai war to a civilian war. (curious people can check it)

The weapons used in war have been improving, but it is always people who decide the outcome. Ran min, who can't think clearly, doesn't think much. He laughs and yells: "throw it to me, continue to throw it!"
