When Aldashir took the initiative to attack from Herat, Cao Cao also began to make intensive arrangements, although so far no one thought that Aldashir would take the initiative to attack Kandahar from Herat.
But this does not mean that no one in Kandahar is taking relevant precautions - although my plan is not to guard against Ardashir, my plan is to guard against the ghosts in Kandahar who know how many there are, but they must exist The 25th generation.
"Oswin has taken the initiative, and the scale is very large." After Cao Cao went to inspect the military camp, the support staff of the meeting became Xun Yu. Others did not have any special feelings about this. Xun Yu's ability was still trusted by everyone. , the only drawback is probably that no one knows how much Xun Yu has used all his strength so far.
Because up to now, everyone who has some sense knows that Xun Yu did not try his best. This is the result of a series of reasons.
"The fortress on Cao Zidan's side can definitely be defended. The problem now is that the water source is partially cut off by the opponent." Cheng Yu said with a sigh.
Although Cheng Yu had anticipated Oswin's response when he first built the fortress, he thought that even if the other party blocked the mountain river, it would not cause a significant reduction in the runoff of the Helmand River. In the end, it really happened. This is where the disadvantage lies.
"The impact of water sources is not big. The impact of drinking water here is not big. As for agricultural irrigation, we are not too anxious now." Chen Gong shook his head and said. This was not to argue with Cheng Yu, but to be honest. Situation judgment.
"Actually, what we have to guard against now is where the water source of the Helmand River is stored." Chen Qun said helplessly, "This is the most important point. The runoff of the entire Helmand River has appeared If the scale of savings is reduced, if it is opened when needed, even if the fortress built upstream can withstand it, there will probably be big problems with the defense capabilities."
Since going abroad, the Han Dynasty has never flooded its opponents because this involves a very troublesome problem, that is, the opponent is upstream and they are downstream, so they need to be prepared for the possibility of water attack by the opponent.
After all, fire and water are ruthless, so it is natural to take precautions early.
This is also the reason why Xun Yu immediately chose to continue the eastward attack on Kabul after Cao Cao captured Kandahar, because that was actually when Cao Cao was most vulnerable, and at that stage Kandahar basically had no ability to defend against water attacks.
After defeating Kabul, Xun Yu selected the location upstream and built the fortress. Even if Kushan used water attacks, it would not have much impact here.
"Oswin will definitely fight. Unless the internal problems in Kandahar are solved, it will be difficult for us to free our hands." Xun Yu shook his head and said, defense is the right choice, but defense is difficult to solve the problem. The five young men must be dug out one by one.
"Then let me stay in Kandahar this time." Xun You suddenly said.
Xun Yu and others thought for a while and nodded. Xun You's ability is very trustworthy, and Xun You always keeps a low profile. Few people know what role he plays under Cao Cao. But this time Oswin attacks, there will be someone in Kandahar to cooperate with him no matter what. , so someone must be in charge.
"I want to ask a question. Almost all the Oswins in Kabul came out. Is there any problem here?" Cheng Yu frowned and looked at Chen Gong and asked, "This is not in line with the current combat situation. Even with Al With Dahir's containment, our army is strong enough to face Oswin, and the risk involved in taking the initiative to attack is far greater than defending on the spot."
Chen Gong nodded when he heard this and had no intention of quarreling with Cheng Yu. "Oswin may not be the main force because he is so powerful. They may have other surprise soldiers."
"I feel that the intelligence we have received now is missing a few links, so it is difficult to get a complete result from this speculation. How about this? I will send a letter to my cousin and ask him to go from the mountain town of Bactla to Kabul assists in defense." Chen Qun really couldn't figure out what Oswin's thoughts were in making such a choice, but this did not affect his ability to take advantage of him.
"In this case, it is feasible." Xun Yu pondered for a moment and nodded. Indeed, after Fulward ran away, Bactra Mountain City was basically transferred to the Chen family, and Chen Zhong had almost captured it. In this case, assisting in defense is a very good reason.
"To put it bluntly, the current situation is that we can't understand what Oswin is doing, so the simplest way is to plunge a needle directly into Oswin's heart. The means arranged by Chen on Bactra are now It’s hard to have room for progress anymore.” Chen Qun sighed and said, the Chen family has invested a lot of money, but the Chen family has now reached its peak.
If you want to continue to grow, there is no point in staying in Bactra Mountain City. It will be difficult to get more things if you continue to lurk. In terms of cost performance, the Chen family is now jumping back. As long as the benefits obtained are large enough, Definitely worth it.
Therefore, at this time when Oswin takes the initiative and asks Chen Zhong to send some troops from Herat City south to Kabul to assist in the defense, Oswin will most likely not refuse. After that, Oswin will attack and Chen Zhong will stay in the Kabul Valley. It's a needle stuck in the heart.
Chen Qun said, "Although I don't know what you want to do, but I will get Kabul down. No matter how many calculations you have, I'm afraid it will be just that. What's there to be afraid of? If you can't figure it out, then just break it violently."
There are limits to the benefits that can be gained from lurking. If an organization or force wants to become bigger and stronger, it will inevitably need to get on the stage. This is inevitable. After all, as the organization and force become larger, the scale of contact with other forces will increase. It will expand day by day, and it can no longer be hidden so easily, and the Chen family has reached this level on Bactra's side.
"Then let me write a letter to my cousin." Chen Qun said.
The political center of Vesudeva I moved southward, which led to many changes. The most obvious one was that Chen Zhong had certain problems in obtaining intelligence. After all, Qunu City was once the home of Brahmins. Although this group of people was a scourge, Their lair is quite well built.
"Well, when it reaches this level, it won't have any impact if it is exposed." Xun Yu nodded and said, "There is indeed a lot of fog about the situation. In this case, it is better to make arrangements early, so as not to see clearly the situation on the battlefield. , trying to attack the enemy’s key points is also an option.”
"Let me ask a question. You said that trying to attack the enemy's key point is also an option. Then I would like to ask, where is our key point?" Chen Gong suddenly asked.
Xun Yu frowned when he heard this. He already understood what Chen Gong meant, but Cao Cao's defense in Kandahar was very good. Even if Oswin had any special ideas, he would not defeat Cao Cao in the Helmand River Valley. There is no point in execution.
The problem is that if Oswin can defeat Cao Cao openly in the valley of the Helmand River, then to be honest, there is no point in not being prepared. Even the main force of Cao Cao's army can be defeated. In addition to sticking to Kandahar and waiting for support, Cao Cao actually has nothing to do. There is no other choice.
"Are you worried that we will miss here in the Helmand Valley?" Xun You spoke rarely, looking at Chen Gong with a somewhat dull expression.
"Yes, Oswin's large-scale dispatch is completely unreasonable, but since we have dispatched, we need to consider whether the opponent has any trump cards, and all tactics and strategies are actually based around Kandahar, so it is better to be more realistic. If Oswin defeated us in the middle and upper reaches of the Helmand River." Chen Gong looked at Xun You without any fear.
"Although your statement is very annoying, I have to say that it is reasonable to calculate defeat before calculating victory." Cheng Yu glanced at Chen Gong twice and did not deny Chen Gong's statement. The plan before the war , speaking freely is a matter of course, as long as it makes sense.
"Because we only have one weak spot, and everything actually revolves around Kandahar. Since we can't understand each other's operations, we can just ensure that we won't die." Chen Gong said very cautiously, this is extremely There were a few situations that even Chen Gong couldn't understand.
Because he couldn't understand, Chen Gong changed his mind - although I don't know what you are planning, I know what your most desired goal is, so I will arrange the overall layout around your ultimate goal. planning.
"Then I will continue to strengthen the defense in Kandahar, and I will also strengthen monitoring and contact with those inside." Xun Yu nodded and said, Chen Gong's idea is correct, this is indeed a way to solve the problem.
"I suggest you contact Lu Boyan and the Congling side, especially the Congling side. After Fulward left, the Congling side was completely empty. They can now mobilize on a large scale." Chen Qun suggested again. Tao, it doesn't matter if you don't understand the situation, even if it's blind typing, as long as you can win.
Therefore, Chen Qun fought directly with the idea of strangulating Guishang with superior force.
"I think the Xiliang Iron Cavalry has arrived at this point. We might have finished the fight." Chen Gong glanced at Chen Qun with a complicated expression, and Chen Qun fell into silence. That's right.
"As for Lu Boyan, let him be there." Xun You suddenly said, "To be precise, he has already participated in the war, but you don't know it clearly. It is actually quite interesting to misjudge this talent. He should be waiting now. The timing is right, so there is no need to notify them.”
Xun You and Lu Xun had met several times, so he knew that the other person was actually the same type of guy as him, just pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger.
