Qin Feng's answer made the entire peace talks hall fall into silence.
Both the Beidi envoy and the peace minister looked at Qin Feng in shock.
"Qin...Qin Feng."
Taichang Temple Qing grabbed Qin Feng's arm, because he was too shocked to speak.
"It has been less than ten days since Beidi entered Beijing."
"Even if you have ten days, how can you conquer Beidi in such a short period of time?"
"No matter how brave the northern soldiers and horses are, they are definitely not heavenly soldiers or generals!"
In the eyes of Taichang Temple Minister, conquering Beidi Province in just ten days is simply a fantasy.
You know, this is Beidi!
Famous for its military strength, it has always been looked up to by people in the surrounding countries for hundreds of years.
Even in Daliang, it was only after successive emperors worked hard to govern that their national strength was unprecedented that they gained an advantage in terms of comprehensive national strength.
In terms of military, it is still weaker than Beidi.
Qin Feng was able to seize the territory of Beidi State in just ten days, he was like a god of war!
Qin Tianhu had been on the battlefield for many years, and was stunned by Qin Feng's feat today.
Chen Si, standing opposite, frowned. Even with his military talents, it would be impossible to achieve Qin Feng's achievements in the same time.
Feeling the shocked gazes of everyone, Qin Feng shrugged and wrote lightly: "How can there be any heavenly soldiers or generals?"
"The results of any war are not simply captured on the battlefield, but are finally harvested after a long period of planning."
"As early as when the national war came to an end and troops were withdrawn from Beidi, I expected that peace talks would inevitably take place in the future."
"On the negotiation table, if you want to make Beidi surrender, you must have strong bargaining chips."
"Therefore, since the end of the national war, I have ordered the troops in the northern border to be strong and ready for war at all times."
Everyone was even more surprised when they heard Qin Feng's explanation.
Ordinary people take one step and look at one step, experts take one step and look at three steps, but Qin Feng...could it be that he takes one step and look at ten steps?
As early as the end of the national war, Qin Feng had already anticipated today's scene?
Everyone felt incredible.
Chen Si couldn't bear it anymore, turned back to the main hall, looked at Qin Feng, and asked in a deep voice: "No matter how well prepared you are, you can't conquer my state in such a short period of time."
"Although we have transferred the two elites of the Eagle Brigade and Snow Wolf Brigade away from the border."
"But there are still more than 30,000 soldiers and horses on the border, including at least 8,000 cavalry."
"To defeat an army of 30,000 people within just ten days since launching the attack is tantamount to wishful thinking."
Chen Si's words also raised questions for the entire Beidi mission.
In the face of doubts, Qin Feng did not hide anything and wrote lightly: "General Chen naturally knows better than me what kind of combat power these 30,000 troops have."
"This national war has consumed most of the strength of both you and me. I, Daliang, are eager to repair various city defenses, replace armor, and replenish soldiers."
"You, Beidi, will naturally take advantage of the peace talks to dispatch troops and change defenses."
"Those elites fighting on the front line have all been withdrawn to the second line for repairs, while the 30,000 troops remaining at the border are all reserves transferred from the rear."
"To put it harshly, they are just new recruits who have never been on the battlefield and lack war experience."
"Among these 30,000 troops, there are only 10,000 who can be called the elite!"
"As long as these 10,000 elites can be defeated, the remaining 20,000 new recruits will naturally defeat themselves."
After hearing this, Chen Si's face became even more gloomy.
Just defeat 10,000 elites?
This was said too lightly, as if in Qin Feng's eyes, ten thousand elites could be broken with a finger, which was really a big joke.
"Although you have strong troops and horses in the northern border, the chariots, hussars, and former generals have suffered serious battle damage, and it is difficult to mobilize them to consolidate the northern defense line."
"You only have one city of soldiers and horses in Beixi County. Even if they are all elite, their total number is only over ten thousand."
"Ten thousand versus ten thousand, still an expedition, facing the pressure of 20,000 reserve troops, conquering a state in ten days? I absolutely don't believe it!"
Chen Si is not a pedantic person, but he does not believe in Qin Feng's feats.
After all, this will not only affect the entire peace negotiation process, but also shake the foundation of the Beidi Kingdom.
If Beidi's 10,000 elite troops, plus 20,000 reserve troops, were to fight at home, they would also have the advantage of fighting in the plain terrain.
Facing more than 10,000 soldiers and horses in Beixi County and unable to stop them even for ten days, Beidi no longer needs to call itself a military power.
How is it so weak and different from a small country?
Qin Feng knew that Chen Si would not believe it, even if it was a military report from Beixi County, which was photographed in front of him.
Qin Feng was already prepared for this.
Immediately let the little eunuch find a military map and spread it on the table.
Pointing to the vast plains on the border of Beidi, his gestures were full of confidence.
"The topography of the two countries is very different, and their respective military strengths are naturally adapted to local conditions."
"The terrain in the northern part of Daliang is complex and mountainous. The fertile plains are concentrated inland."
"It is precisely because of this that a large number of cities and fortresses were built in the northern border areas."
"As long as we defend these fortresses and cities, we can form lines of defense."
"This is why we have fewer cavalry and more infantry in Daliang. We are good at attacking tough battles. This is due to the environment."
"If I don't have the determination to go on an expedition, then it will be meaningless to train more cavalry."
Chen Si did not raise any objection to Qin Feng's statement.
After all, the national conditions of the two countries are indeed different.
In the past few hundred years, the wars between the Liang Kingdom and Beidi have all been concentrated in the northern border area. This is because there are too many cities and fortresses here, forming a dense defense line.
As long as Liang Guo holds these lines of defense, he can keep the enemy out of the core area.
Qin Feng reached out and drew on the map.
"Looking at Beidi, although most of the country's territory is located on the plateau and the country's territory is vast, more than 70% of the terrain is plain."
"That's why your Beidi cavalry is so powerful."
"There are many plains, and if you are good at field warfare, it will inevitably lead to the cavalry being too strong and the fortress being too weak."
"Since ancient times, Beidi has not cared about the gains and losses of a city or a place. After all, many cities and fortresses have weak city defenses and low city walls, making it easy to attack but difficult to defend."
"As long as we have strong troops, we can retake the city at any time."
Qin Feng pointed to Beixi County on the map and stretched his hand all the way north, finally extending to the Eagle Ridge area.
Between Beixi County and Xiongying Ridge, it happens to include the border areas of the two countries.
Half of it is a rugged mountainous area, and the other half is a flat wilderness.
"Our Beixi County soldiers and horses only need to march straight in, like sharp swords, attacking all the way, and we can divide your Beidi border area into two."
"Then, the troops and horses spread to the two wings and capture the city."
