Back Off, Let Me Come

Shen Tang wanted to mobilize 20,000 soldiers and horses to fight Qiu Wenyan. Not only Qiu Cheng had never dreamed of this, but even Shen Tang himself was surprised. After all, this move is too risky, and not everyone likes the thrill of high-altitude tightrope walking.

Jiang Sheng: "...Please, my lord, think twice before you act."

By the way, I would like to slander Kang Shi for leading the bad lord.

There is nothing wrong with what you like at a young age, like gambling.

Shen Tang said innocently, "I thought twice."

This is what she decided after "thinking twice".

Jiang Sheng could only patiently analyze the pros and cons to Shen Tang - his family knew his own affairs, and his background was not as weak as the outside world thought. It would be very difficult for more than 10,000 troops to swallow up the entire Sibao County, but it would take several months and a half. It's not difficult to nibble half of it.

Qiu Cheng, as the defender of the city, has certain advantages. He can plan slowly and does not necessarily have to be radical.

Furthermore——

If Qiu Cheng is really easily captured, it will expose his own strength, attract unnecessary covetousness and alertness, and establish enemies prematurely, which is not conducive to future expansion. It would be better to delay the war in order to mislead the outside world, which is also a wise way of protecting one's own safety.

Shen Tang also seriously considered Jiang Sheng's proposal.

But in the end I still wanted to stick to the original plan.

She also has her own reasons.

"...If it were any other time, I would definitely adopt Xianden's suggestion. Making money silently is the best way for me. However, the current situation is different. Zheng Qiao is in danger of being overthrown. The dragon-slaying game seems to be in a stalemate, but in fact it is It’s the most critical time to decide the outcome. If we don’t enter, we may not even be able to drink a sip of soup. When Huang Lie and others finish carving up, the butcher’s knife will immediately turn around.”

Shen Tang might become a fat sheep.

Or join in early and shamelessly.

Or seize the opportunity to expand around.

Shen Tang didn't need to hesitate much.

Adults, what choice do you make?

Naturally, I want both.

It's just that the steps are arranged in order.

Jiang Sheng pondered for a few breaths: "It was said two years ago that he would not live long, but he caused harm to all parties and is still alive today. Sheng carefully considered this person and found that he was violent and violent, but he was extremely good at manipulating people's hearts. He was not greedy for gold or silver. Wealth, carriages, beauties, fame and wealth, but we are willing to part with the meat and raise a group of jackals, tigers and leopards that smell the meat...the centipede insect will die without stiffening."

Shen Tang and Zheng Qiao are both partial subjects.

The former has more civility and less martial arts, while the latter has more martial arts and less literature.

He spent a lot of money to raise a lot of dogs. He firmly controlled the military power in his hands, and the military power protected the heads on his neck.

Although Huang Lie has the ability to raise puppets on a large scale, behind the powerful force of these puppets are also burning human lives, money and food. It's hard to say whether Huang Lie couldn't hold it in first, or whether Zheng Qiao was bitten by the jackals, tigers and leopards who had raised their appetites with his own hands.

"As long as Zheng Qiao holds back Huang Lie and other ambitious forces, we can still feel at ease and manage ourselves..."

Shen Tang looked at the scenery outside the window.

He just sighed: "It's too small."

Jiang Sheng was surprised: "Too young?"

Shen Tang: "Longwu County is too small."

The reason for sending troops to Qiucheng was not just because Nanyu County was robbed. She felt pity for the common people in the territory and felt sorry for the hard-won food, but these two points alone were not enough to make her so determined to send troops. How many people died in that scene in Nanyu County?

Once the two forces go to war, the casualties will only be ten times or even dozens of times, and the more tragic ones will be hundreds of times.

By then——

How many common people have lost their blood relatives?

How many families have lost their breadwinners?

Nanyu County’s hatred is not unbearable.

The real reason was that she had to use troops!

She circled the map of Longwu County with her finger. Her young face lost its usual playful and relaxed look, replaced by a restrained depth and stability, and her eyes were dark.

"In the past two years, we have been working hard to accommodate refugees from all walks of life. If we want the refugees to truly settle down, we need to give them land, let them farm, let them have food and clothing, and give them stability. Only then will they be kind to this land and grateful to the government. , admire me. But Longwu County is too small, the fields are limited, and the number of refugees is still increasing, but the cultivated land will not increase."

"Go ahead, it's dangerous."

"This is the beginning of the turmoil!"

"I never believe in 'simple folk customs'. When you feed them, they will be amiable, kind and simple to everyone. But if you try to make them hungry? Hehe, anyone will kill someone just for a morsel of food! They also They will raise their hoe and sickle to me! But they won’t take in the refugees? Then how to recruit more soldiers and horses? Produce more food? There is only one answer.”

Shen Tang laughed coldly.

“We need our neighbors’ land.”

Her tone was relaxed and a little cruel.

"Anyway, Qiu Fumiyan can't manage it well, can he?"

"This is just like internal conflicts cannot be coordinated, and the best way is to go to war externally, so that conflicts can be transferred or alleviated."

"My reputation actually didn't start from Heyin County, but from Sibao County to be precise. How many people in Sibao County remember me is unknown for now, but I did work hard for them and win their hearts and minds. relatively easy."

It was her who wanted to fight.

And Qiu Cheng handed over the pillow.

After Jiang Sheng heard this, he was convinced that his lord had really thought it through. He also knew that Longwu County, a small county, could support 25,000 garrison troops and 20,000 border guards. Without Shen Tang's hard work, it would be impossible. The pressure is too much and I need an outlet.

Looking at it this way——

Qiucheng is indeed very considerate.

Jiang Sheng bowed his hands deeply and said solemnly: "My lord has made a decision and has the city in his heart. Sheng - you should try your best to follow him."

Shen Tang suddenly opened his face and smiled, sweeping away the deep and sinister tone just now, and even his tone became lighter: "Suddenly I remembered - Xian Deng, let's pull out 20,000 people in one go this time, everyone will think Is there no one at home? If Qiu Wenyan or the people he recruits want to 'surround Wei to save Zhao' or 'draw money from the bottom of the cauldron'... then it will be interesting, and there will be no less excitement."

Jiang Sheng: "..."

He thought about the scene for a moment.

It's really lively.

No one could have imagined that Shen Tang would target the border garrison. Not only did he dare to think about it, he actually did it...

After the discussion between Shen Tang and Jiang Sheng was over, the official office held another small meeting, the main content of which was to confirm the list of personnel for the battle.

According to her wishes, young people like Tu Rong, Lin Feng, and Lu Ji all went out to gain experience and experience.

Only when one's own side has truly established a firm foothold can female warriors/scribes like Bai Su truly appear fearlessly.

Until then, feel free to grow.

As for the battle plan——

Is it a separate attack or a joint attack?

Chu Yao and others had surprisingly unanimous opinions.

"Combined attack!"

Qishan used his spare time to look at his wronged cousin and said, "We might as well let Ji Shou lead a thousand troops to harass his eyes and ears. With the remaining troops gathered together, it shouldn't be a problem to take over the neighboring Linshan County."

Kang Shi pointed at himself: "Why?"

There was resistance in his tone.

He is the only reliable scribe in the lord's account. The main force in the battle will not take him with him, but he is going to release all the brave warriors?

(ω)

Kang Shi thought:

Fighting without him is like playing without milk.

He is the only hope for this family.

Actually:

Kang Shi, a gambler who is crazy, is more reliable than anyone else.
