Huang Zhiting's teasing was always to the point and would not really embarrass Gao Pragmatic. Therefore, seeing that he was a little embarrassed, she took the initiative to take the topic back and said: "Using the old land of Bago to deal with the reckless thieves is just delaying, It's a way to delay the battle. If you want to further attack the reckless thieves, I also want to try the kind of play you mentioned to me last time."
"Which way to play?"
Gao Pragmatic walked with her all the way back to Guangxi from Annan. On the way, apart from talking to each other, he often chatted with her about military matters as he liked.
But Gao Jingshi had nothing to teach Huang Zhiting about marching and formation. On the contrary, he could only be her student, so he usually talked to Huang Zhiting about strategic thinking, and they talked a lot. Therefore, Huang Zhiting suddenly said this, He couldn't figure out what style of play he was referring to.
Huang Zhiting said: "It's the kind of mopping-up war you mentioned that 'destroyes the enemy's economic foundation and seriously damages the enemy's people's hearts and minds'."
Oh, you mean this?
However, Gao Pragmatic did not agree immediately. Instead, he pondered for a moment and then slowly said: "It is okay to further attack Myanmar, but you have to grasp the 'degree'. This kind of sweeping method can effectively destroy The enemy's economic foundation is certainly certain, but it is not certain that it can seriously damage the enemy's people's hearts. Because if your methods are too harsh, or the opponent also has experts, it may turn the local people's disappointment in the Toungoo dynasty into a Hatred for us 'invaders'."
Huang Zhiting thought for a while and asked: "This is a bit difficult to handle. I'm not very sure... Do you have any tips?"
"Well... it can be said that there is." Gao Pingshi mused: "There are two ways to treat the symptoms and the root cause. Which one do you want to hear?"
Huang Zhiting hesitated for a moment, then said decisively: "Treat the symptoms."
Gao pragmatic raised his eyebrows slightly and asked, "Why?"
"Are you going to test me again?" Huang Zhiting smiled sweetly, raised her hand and raked the hair on her temples, and said: "It is good to treat the root cause, but it is always difficult to achieve immediate results and it usually takes a long time to cure the root cause. You can see the changes. And how long can I stay here? According to you, half a year is considered a good deal, so I don’t have the time to slowly cure the root cause, so I can only choose to treat the symptoms - what I want is immediate results."
Gao pragmatic laughed and nodded: "Okay, okay. I can see that you have spent a lot of time learning and improving after I went north. I am very pleased."
Huang Zhiting rolled her eyes at him, stood up gracefully, gave him a slight blessing, and said sweetly: "Sir, that's a compliment, but I don't dare to accept it." After saying this, she couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Gao Pingshi had an exaggerated expression on his face and said: "Young lady, why should you be too modest? Everything I say comes from the bottom of my heart, and we can learn from it in the future."
After saying that, the two of them looked at each other and suddenly laughed together, like flowers blooming in spring.
After laughing for a while, Huang Zhiting suddenly turned pale and whispered, "I often thought before that it would be great if you were really Zhang Xu."
Gao Pragmatic could guess what she was thinking, and comforted him: "You can always treat me as Zhang Buxu."
Huang Zhiting shook her head gently: "It's different. If you are Zhang Buxu, we can stay in Annan... or Siming Mansion now, and spend every day leisurely, admiring the flowers and the moon, or traveling around the mountains and rivers. , in short, you don’t need to worry about so many things.”
After hearing this, Gao Pangshi could only sigh. After a while, he forced a smile and said: "Maybe one day I will resign and I will go to Annan to be a teacher for you and teach you how to recite poetry." Yes, I will accompany you to enjoy the moon and listen to the piano... However, I am not a failed scholar, so this kind of cultivation is indispensable, and it is not cheap."
Huang Zhiting couldn't help smiling after hearing this, but then she lowered her head and said softly: "I don't know if I can afford it to Shu Xiu, the number one scholar in the Sixth Prize, otherwise... you can ask for whatever you want."
Gao pragmatic smelled the fragrance of her body, and after hearing these words, he suddenly reached out and grabbed Huang Zhiting's catkins, and pulled slightly: "Zhiting, come here."
Huang Zhiting, who was sitting opposite him, was a little overwhelmed by his move and stood up in confusion. Gao pragmatically pulled her into his arms and sat on his lap.
Huang Zhiting was taken aback and quickly wanted to get up, but was hugged by Gao Pragmatic.
"Don't move, just sit like this."
Although Huang Zhiting didn't want to refuse any of Gao Pragmatic's actions from the bottom of her heart, this action really made her sit on pins and needles. She felt that her whole body was stiff, and she even started to tremble a little immediately.
Gao Pingshi also noticed that the girl in his arms seemed to be shaking slightly, and said unexpectedly: "Are you scared?"
"No...no." Huang Zhiting said with a trembling voice: "I'm just, just nervous."
This answer made Gao Pingshi a little surprised. Girls in later generations would probably not be so nervous even if they were intimate with their first love for the first time.
What's more, when I first met Huang Zhiting, although she was acting, she was really charming with every frown and smile. I didn't expect that she would behave like this in a "close encounter".
Gao Pingshi chuckled, moved closer, smelled the fragrance of her hair on her temples, and whispered: "You just said, I want whatever I want..."
Huang Zhiting was shocked and stood up suddenly, saying anxiously: "I, I didn't mean now!"
She is a practicing practitioner. Although she is not necessarily stronger than Gao Jingjing in terms of strength, her movements are definitely agile, and Gao Jingjing did not expect her to react so strongly. She was completely unprepared. Not only did she let She broke free all of a sudden and was almost knocked over by her.
Huang Zhiting saw this and quickly reached out to help him. When Gao Xiangshi sat firmly, she quickly stopped her hand and took two steps back, her eyes a little nervous and a little apologetic.
Gao Pragmatic smiled bitterly and said: "It seems that I have to think about it carefully..."
Huang Zhiting's face suddenly turned pale, and the look of fear in her eyes suddenly rose.
Gao Pragmatic continued: "...Should I find someone to teach me how to grapple and fight or something like that?"
Huang Zhiting realized that it was a false alarm, but she was still frightened and said in a trembling voice: "I...I didn't mean it, don't be angry."
Gao Pragmatic couldn't help but smile bitterly and sighed falsely: "Oh, that's okay. If you did this on purpose, wouldn't I be able to explain it here on the spot?"
Huang Zhiting was embarrassed and worried at the same time. She looked down at her toes as if she was a child who had done something wrong.
"Come on, come on." Gao pragmatically laughed: "I know you didn't mean it. I'm not a firecracker. I get angry at every little thing."
Huang Zhiting finally felt relieved when she saw that he didn't look like a faker.
Unexpectedly, Gao Pingshi patted his thigh again and said, "But you have to sit back again."
Huang Zhiting's face suddenly turned red again, and she hesitated and refused to step forward.
Gao pragmatic refused to give in this time and looked at her steadily.
Huang Zhiting caught a glimpse, knowing that she couldn't escape. She closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and took two steps forward as if she were dead. She was immediately pulled into his arms by Gao Pingshi and sat down as before.
Seeing that she not only had her eyes closed, but also pursed her lips tightly, Gao Pingshi couldn't help laughing and said, "I'm just sitting down for a while, I don't want you to move... Uh, I mean, again If you don’t do anything else, why be so nervous.”
Fortunately, Huang Zhiting didn't understand the first half of Gao Pingshi's sentence at all. She just said with a blushing face: "Master... Master said: Do not see if it is inappropriate, do not hear if it is inappropriate, do not speak if it is inappropriate, and do not move if it is inappropriate."
"Well……"
It seems that reading is not necessarily a good thing, and it is starting to repay others in kind.
Gao Pingshi smiled dryly and said: "The etiquette changes with time and with different people... I will explain this to you in the future."
This well-dressed beast in a sitting python robe was shamelessly hugging Huang Zhiting's slender waist, and changed the subject in a serious manner: "Where were we talking about just now?"
Huang Zhiting's mind was even more confused than his, and she was extremely nervous. It took her a long time to come back to her senses and said, "Speaking of... treating the symptoms."
"That's right, treat the symptoms, treat the symptoms." Gao Pragmatic coughed lightly, pretending to be solemn, and said: "The strategy to treat the symptoms is actually four words: justice and order."
Huang Zhiting's nervousness was replaced by thinking, and she thought for a while and said: "Justice is easy to understand, but what is order?"
Gao pragmatically said: "In order, we must ensure that the laws and regulations in our occupied areas are strict. Just because it is a period of war, all kinds of monsters and ghosts will appear. For those lawless people who take advantage of the situation to rob, gather people to make trouble, or even rape and plunder, we must Punishment must be resolute and swift, especially publicly.”
Huang Zhiting understood now and suddenly said: "Oh! I know, the purpose is to make the local people think that we are better than the thieves, more..." When she said this, she seemed to be unable to find the most suitable wording. .
Gao Pragmatic added for her: "More like a mighty, civilized, and victorious army."
"Yes, yes, that's what I meant!" Huang Zhiting immediately said happily.
Gao Pragmatic smiled secretly in his heart: This summary is in place, simple and incisive. The party's senior political cadres are not just for free.
Huang Zhiting became happy and forgot that she was still sitting on Gao Pragmatic's lap. She twisted her body excitedly and said: "But in this way, I won't be able to stay in one place for a long time. It's best to put the whole place together." We have visited all the old Bago places in southern Myanmar, and we have to plan an advance route..."
Gao Pragmatic was so comfortable that he closed his eyes and thought to himself: My current marching route is quite accurate, but it's a pity that I can't advance...
Huang Zhiting was talking happily when she suddenly noticed that Gao Pragmatic was unresponsive. She glanced at him subconsciously and suddenly her face turned red. She was so angry that she secretly gritted her teeth and pushed him lightly. She said coquettishly: "Why don't you ask me what route I want to design?" ?”
Gao Pangshi quickly opened his eyes and said randomly: "Oh, yes, we need to plan the march route..." Then he was stunned and asked: "What do you have in mind?"
Huang Zhiting knew that he must not have had any good intentions in mind just now, but now she didn't dare to provoke him anymore. She could only hold back her shame, rolled her eyes at him, and said: "You told me at that time that it is best to be able to fight with both hands. Preparation, especially the need to 'think about defeat before thinking about victory', so I also have to consider what I will do if the whole plan does not go smoothly."
This is business, and it is important business. Gao Pragmatic immediately put Qisi aside and said seriously: "This makes sense, what are your considerations?"
Huang Zhiting wanted to get up again, but this time she was held down by Gao Pingshi, saying: "Don't even think about running away."
"I want to give you the Kan map." Huang Zhiting was ashamed and angry.
"That's unnecessary." Gao Qingshi said proudly: "Although the world is big, it's all in my heart. Just say it, I know everything you say."
This is not nonsense. After playing too many strategy games from a global perspective, it can indeed be done, but each region cannot be too detailed.
Huang Zhiting glanced at him with admiration in her eyes, but immediately remembered the business and nodded: "Okay... have you noticed that Bago is not far from Siam?"
Gao Pingshi was moved in his heart and asked: "You mean..."
Huang Zhiting nodded and said: "Yes, I think this is worth taking advantage of."
When she said this, she still seemed to feel that it was inconvenient to have no map, but Gao Pragmatic held her waist and did not let go. She did not dare to move anymore now, so she had to make do with a few empty gestures with her hands and said: "From now on Going southeast from Bago, it’s only over 400 miles to Myawaddy, and beyond Myawaddy is Siam.”
Gao Pragmatic's reaction was quite quick as long as he was not distracted. He nodded immediately and said: "Are you trying to say that withdrawing troops does not necessarily need to take the sea route, but you can also consider withdrawing troops directly by land, diverting to Siam and then back to Annan?"
Huang Zhiting said: "You can do this, but if we take the land route, it's hard to say whether we will have to withdraw directly to Annan."
Gao pragmatic thought for a while and asked: "Are you afraid that the Burmese army will follow you? If you withdraw to Annan immediately, the overall situation in Siam will be ruined?"
Huang Zhiting nodded and said unceremoniously: "After you left Annan, we took over some of the intelligence on Burma, Siam, Laos and other places. We have been able to confirm that whether Siam or Laos, their armies are facing each other. The Burmese army is unreliable, and often suffers huge defeats despite its obvious strength advantage. So if Siam wants to do anything this time, we must directly send troops to support it. If you want to just sell some arms and equipment, let Siam and Laos Help Annan hold off Myanmar from the front... I don't think it's possible, maybe a lot of supplies will be seized by the Myanmar army, and the gain outweighs the loss."
Gao Pragmatic frowned and said: "But Annan originally sent troops in two ways. One way was to expedition to Bago to force the Burmese army to return from Yunnan; the other way was to land in Siam to help Naresuan and the others defend the homeland. As long as you can threaten Dongfang Xucheng, causing the Burmese army to return to the south, is already a great achievement. Helping Siam hold the defense line is not your task in itself. "
Huang Zhiting was silent for a while, until Gao Pragmatic began to wonder if this girl particularly liked fighting, then she said softly: "I remember that not long after you entered the Annan border, you had already started to make plans for Myanmar."
"Huh?" Gao Pragmatic's thinking was not so quick, and he didn't understand the meaning of this for a while.
Huang Zhiting turned her head slightly. Gao Pingshi couldn't see her expression clearly, but he could only hear her saying quietly: "Since you really want to take Myanmar, I... I just want to do more to help you."
