Dao Shi and Xu Tianhu applauded Yan Qi's wonderful prison tactics.
Daoshi even felt that Yan Qi was not only a strategist, but also a super powerful military strategist.
In the art of war, this move can be called encircling Wei and rescuing Zhao.
Yan Qi caused trouble in Europe and caused chaos in Europe. This was equivalent to besieging Wei.
Driving Obiqiu out of Nanhai is equivalent to saving Zhao.
Daoshi looked at the map intently and drew two circles on the Yizhou Strait and the Yellowstone Strait: "The Yizhou Strait is the closest and the easiest to pass, while the Yellowstone Strait is far away and has a narrow waterway, making it difficult to pass at night."
"I guess Obiqiu weighs the pros and cons, and after testing it several times, he will still choose Yizhou Strait."
"So, I decided, Xu Tianhu, you will guard the Yellowstone Strait, and I will guard the Yizhou Strait."
Xu Tianhu quit immediately and stared: "Why don't I quit?"
Dao Shi said: "I am your master, can I use it well or not?"
"Hey, this..."
Xu Tianhu held it in for a long time but could not calm down and said: "Master, how can you compete with me for credit? I am young and rely on military merit for a living, so you have to let me."
Daoshi said: "This is not a question of giving or not. You just think about military merit, but I think about training. The 300,000 sailors I trained are excellent in every subject, but there is no actual combat."
"This time, I will take this opportunity to train well."
Xu Tianhu shouted loudly to Yan Qi: "Brother-in-law, look at my master, he is trying to steal credit from me, and he keeps giving the same reasons..."
Yan Qidao: "What Brother Dao said makes sense! Training with Obi-Qiu's strongest naval force is really a rare practical course."
"I have decided, Xu Tianhu, you will guard the Yellowstone Strait."
"Brother Dao, guard the Yizhou Strait."
Yan Qi made the decision, but Xu Tianhu didn't have the temper to refute.
He was speechless.
Daoshi had an excited smile on his lips.
Xu Tianhu said with itching heart: "It doesn't matter, we will eventually destroy Obi Qiu, and I will definitely use my fists and kicks when the time comes."
Yan Qi shook his head: "You are wrong. With the current strategy, it is impossible for us to fight with Obi Qiu. Our purpose is to blackmail and extort Ou Biqiu, not to annihilate Ou Biqiu."
Xu Tianhu asked unwillingly: "Why?"
Yan Qidao: "There's no need to ask! Because Obi Qiu's navy is extremely strong. Their superficial strength is on par with our Dahua, and their actual combat skills may even be better than ours. Because they are traditional maritime overlords. Fighting is a way to make a living, how can you be weak?"
"If we forcefully eliminate Obi Qiu, even if we win, it will be a tragic victory. If we can only have one-tenth of our 500,000 navy troops left, it will be great."
"At that point, have you ever thought that Tokugawa Taiyasu, who has been watching covetously from the side for a long time, will let us go?"
Xu Tianhu suddenly realized: "Brother-in-law is right, how could I forget that there is an old fox like Tokugawa Taiyasu peeping on the side?"
Yan Qidao: "Remember, our main enemy in the South China Sea is Tokugawa Taiyasu, not Obiqiu."
"Obiqiu is Tokugawa Taiyasu's helper in pretending to be a tiger. Don't get the wrong person."
"We drove Obiqiu away and used our main experience to deal with Tokugawa Taiyasu. This is how we grasped the main contradiction and ignored the secondary contradictions."
Xu Tianhu nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, brother-in-law is right, I want to keep it simple, hehehehehehe..."
This guy's laughter is so embarrassing, so embarrassing.
Daoshi said: "This time, not only can we train our troops well, but we can also take the opportunity to blackmail Obi Qiu."
Yan Qi smiled with a stinky face: "That's natural. Tokugawa Taiyasu invited Obi Qiu here, and I asked Obi Qiu to bite off a piece of meat from Tokugawa Taiyasu. In the future, I will wait for Tokugawa Taiyasu's recovery plan. I will definitely regret it.”
Daoshi said: "Without further delay, I will control the Yizhou Strait overnight."
Xu Tianhu clenched his fists: "I will guard the Yellowstone Strait."
Yan Qi nodded: "You just go, I will release the intelligence agents from Europe now and let them inform Obi Qiu."
"Ha ha!"
The three of them laughed.
…
The next day!
The reconnaissance ship sent by Obiqiu returned: "High Priest, there is an abnormal situation to report."
Obiqiu became nervous: "What's the abnormal situation?"
The investigator said: "The Yizhou Strait is blocked by Yan Qi."
Obiqiu was confused: "Yan Qi blocked the Yizhou Strait? What the hell?"
Not a moment.
Another intelligence ship came back to report.
"High Priest, Yan Qi has blocked the Yellowstone Strait."
Obiqiu hurriedly took out the map.
"Yan Qi blocked the Yizhou Strait and the Yellowstone Strait? What does this mean? There are only two waterways from the South China Sea to Europe. What is he doing? Not allowing me to pass through Europe?"
"But, why should I go out? I firmly control Yizhou Island, how can there be any possibility of returning to Europe? Yan Qi is funny."
Obi Qiu didn't understand the formation of troops with Yan Qi at all.
The naval forces who had worked so hard to come from Temasek actually went to blockade the Yizhou Strait.
How can this help?
You don't dare to hit me, but you go to guard the Yizhou Strait and show off?
That's all.
Obiqiu felt quite proud when he thought of this.
He believed that Yan Qi was just trying to find a way out for him.
It's just a stupid move.
He is enjoying himself.
The reconnaissance warship came to report again: "High Priest, Europe has sent people, Europe has sent people."
Obiqiu frowned: "Europe sent people here? How is that possible?"
"it is true."
The investigator said: "It's still the priest sent by Pope Berg."
"Or a priest?"
Obiqiu scratched his head even more.
There was a competitive relationship between him and Pope Berg, and their relationship was very rigid.
The two of them fought hand-to-hand for more than a dozen times.
However, I did not expect that Pope Berger would send a priest.
This is funny.
Obiqiu waved his hand: "Quick, let the priest come in."
The priest rushed in quickly.
As soon as he came in, he yelled and knelt in front of Obiqiu: "High Priest, it's bad, something big has happened in Europe."
Obiqiu narrowed his eyes: "What's the big deal?"
The pastor said: "Yan Qi brought three million Turks to Europe. As a result, these Turks occupied the Ottomans. We were unable to attack for a long time and suffered heavy casualties..."
"What?"
When Obi Qiu heard this, his blood pressure suddenly increased and his face turned red: "Is there such a thing?"
At this time, Obiqiu remembered that Yan Qi had said that he had been to Europe and was very familiar with Osman.
"I see."
Obi Qiu was so angry that he was trembling all over: "You Yan Qi, you are causing so much trouble in Europe. It's really abominable."
But after careful calculation, Yan Qi has been back from Europe for a long time.
how?
Did the pastor just come to report the news?
Obiqiu asked the priest angrily: "Osman was robbed. You should have come to report the news a long time ago. Why are you here now? Can you be responsible for delaying the military situation? No matter how many heads are cut off, it cannot make up for the heavy losses."
The pastor said aggrievedly: "I have been here a long time ago, but unfortunately, Yan Qi caught me and detained me for many days. It was not until yesterday that I was released..."
"What? This happened?"
Only then did Obiqiu realize that Yan Qi was blocking the Yizhou Strait and the Yellowstone Strait, seemingly playing a big game of chess.
