"After Liuhe Pass, there is Chenggao Pass. After these two passes, there is a plain. After that, the military deployment is not strong enough. If the capital cannot mobilize troops in time, it will be a smooth road for the Jin soldiers, and they can go straight to the capital. "
Fang Zheng said: "Say something useful. How to fight the battle is not what we need to worry about now. Are our cannons still afraid of his cavalry?"
Zhou Tiedao: "Yes, that's right. As long as the artillery is enough to defeat the cavalry, victory is certain. The question is where to fight and how to fight."
"After the two passes is the West Wind Plains. If we start a battle here, our army may have the opportunity to completely annihilate the main local forces and break the opponent's backbone at once."
"Any experienced or even inexperienced general who has explosives in their hands will take the initiative to abandon the first two levels and choose this place to attack the cavalry. It will definitely get twice the result with half the effort."
"If we can send out the message, Dajing will deploy in advance. Sir, you can help them build hot air balloons and greatly improve their investigation capabilities. The Jin Kingdom will definitely start a decisive battle with Dajing in the West Wind Plains."
Fang Zhengyi asked in confusion: "What can I say if I can send a message? Besides, people from the Jin Kingdom are not fools. If they directly fight on the plains, they will definitely accept it?"
Zhou Tie gave Fang Zhengyi a look of affirmation: "Sir, I believe you. If you agree to help them, you will definitely have room to move freely. There is absolutely no problem in using your eloquence to fool two fools into delivering a message for you!"
"Sixty thousand heavy armored cavalry is enough to make all countries jealous. In order to cooperate with the surprise attack capability, they should be equipped with 12 to nearly 200,000 war horses. This does not include infantry and light armored cavalry. No army of this force dares to fight with him. In a head-on confrontation on the plains, they can even abandon any tactics and formations and rush in directly. It would be a massacre against ordinary soldiers."
"Dajing's cavalry is not good. I heard the prince say that in the early years of the war with the Qian Kingdom, there were even situations where there were soldiers but no cavalry. Even though it has been restored for so many years, it is still not comparable to the Jin Kingdom. I saw it when I came here. Let's The best war horses can only be compared with their inferior horses. As long as Da Jing sends enough soldiers and horses in the plains, so many that they have no reason to retreat and not fight, the Kingdom of Jin will definitely fight! No one will talk about the fat. I’ll give up.”
"But who knows, we have a special weapon to defeat cavalry. Maybe when the cannon fires, the horses will not be able to walk."
Fang Zheng nodded repeatedly: "That's very good. When they are defeated, we will be slaughtered in Pantai City to vent our anger."
"Ah... Master must have a way. That's all I can think of." Zhou Tie looked embarrassed.
Fang Zheng held his chin with his fist and sighed softly.
What Zhou Tie said was certainly reasonable, but he now faced two problems. One was how to convey his message.
The second point is to start a war. How to ensure the safety of people like myself? If old boy Pappana doesn't keep his word, he will kill him after the hot air balloon is released.
Internally...Alibaba can actually operate it, but externally there is no one available right now.
He will be monitored in real time when he goes out. Paba will never give him this opportunity. If he finds someone who can deliver the message, he will probably be unable to communicate due to language barriers, let alone the rest of the mission.
"Have you figured out a way, sir?" Zhou Tie asked in a low voice.
"Sigh... The most important thing now is to find someone to deliver the message. Who the hell can I find? I have to bring a translator with me when I go out. I think it won't taste good if it's translated by someone else."
"Isn't there a little girl in the post house? Isn't she good?" Zhou Tiedao
"Which little girl?"
"A bit dark, the one with long legs."
"Hey, Linglong?" An idea flashed in Fang Zheng's mind.
yes.
Paba gave him a black-skinned, long-legged girl who could communicate smoothly with him. The most important thing was that she was unlikely to be specially sent to monitor him.
Since the day the mission entered the city, it had become a thing in the hands of the Kingdom of Jin. There was no need to have a woman to monitor it. It would be superfluous.
The only possibility is that Prapa sent it as a token of goodwill to give him some sweetness.
If we make a breakthrough from here... Although it is a bit difficult, it is still a glimmer of hope. We can test it first.
"Master, is she okay?"
Fang Zheng glanced at him: "How could I have known that you would treat this like eating and drinking? I'll try it when I have a chance... Now go and call everyone with the delegation into my room, and... The two sisters from the Chu family have all been called over. If we want to solve the problem, we must first resolve the internal problems."
Twenty minutes later, everyone in the mission gathered in Fangzheng's room, and the dense crowd of people standing in the room could barely contain everyone.
Fang Zheng stood on the table in the hall, glanced around, and said, "Zhang Biao, look inside and outside Zhou Tie's house to see if anyone is watching. If not, guard the stairs and don't let anyone approach the room. If anyone wants to steal, If you watch and eavesdrop, beat me out. If you don’t obey, I’ll beat you to death!”
The two of them responded and turned around to go out.
After hearing what Fang Zheng said, there was a sudden commotion in the room, and everyone began to feel uneasy.
The leader, Ma Cheng, said nervously: "Did something serious happen to Mr. Fang?"
Fang Zhengyi nodded with a heavy heart, then looked at the crowd and said, "I'm going to tell you something big next. Don't panic or get confused. I'll start talking when everyone is mentally prepared."
...
After talking, the atmosphere in the room changed and became extremely depressing.
The two Chu sisters were so frightened that their faces turned pale.
Several officials from the Ministry of Household Affairs also had their teeth chattering.
Ma Chenggong was even worse. He was trembling and murmuring: "It's over, it's over, it's over, I'm going to die."
Fang Zheng stood on the table without saying anything. After waiting for ten minutes, no one dared to ask questions.
He pointed at Ma Cheng, who was still shivering, and said, "Ma Cheng, although I am here to be the envoy, my actual role is just a ceremonial role. You are the real envoy. Come up."
Ma Cheng was stunned for a moment, then his hands and feet became weak and he stumbled onto the table.
Fang Zheng held down his head, turned around half a circle, and said in a deep voice: "Look, these are your men. You are more afraid than them. Is this ridiculous?"
"You are not acting like an example. You are timid before fighting and disturb the morale of the army. If you behave like this in the army, you should be beheaded in public."
Ma Cheng was trembling and speechless.
I'm almost going crazy with anxiety. What you just said is that it's not just a narrow escape, but a tenth chance of death! Who can not be afraid?
I'm just a civil servant, why should I talk about military morale?
"Master Fang, what should I do! What should I do! I wonder what they are going to do..."
"Pah!" A lightning-fast slap hit Ma Cheng hard on the face.
