Chapter 294
"Fighting to feed war?" Lin Nanzheng blinked at her and said, "Isn't that robbery? You are so inconsistent, aren't you not allowing robbery?"
"That depends on the person." Hong Lianshuo snorted.
"The Yi Di lived a poorer life than we did, so there was nothing to grab. Even if they occupied the grassland, they could not cultivate the land, and they soon returned it. It was too miserable." Han Qinhu said casually, "Of course their nobles
There are also gold and silver jewels. But in the vast grassland, these gold and silver jewels cannot be used as food! They are not as good as a steamed bun with sorghum noodles."
"How can I say this! It's not easy to carry food and grass, but you can carry living animals!" Hong Lianshuo said, looking at them with crooked eyebrows.
"Living animals? Cargo?" Lin Nanzheng looked at her with raised eyebrows and said, "You mean the Silk Road! We can't do it here. It's neither the hometown of Lingluo silk and satin, nor is there a tea mountain."
Hong Lianshuo shook his head and laughed when he heard this, "I'm talking about living animals, cattle and sheep! Grazing on the grassland is easy. You can drink the milk of the cattle and sheep, and you can eat the meat after slaughtering the cattle and sheep. Moreover, they eat grass and squeeze out milk."
.Not consuming a single bit of food.”
"You mean driving these groups of cattle and sheep to fight the Yi Di?" Han Qinhu thought about the scene carefully and shook his head. He really couldn't imagine driving groups of cattle and sheep to fight.
"What are you shaking your head for?" Hong Lianshuo looked at him funny and said, "This is how steppe wolves fight. It's the same as carrying a large amount of baggage, without the need for a cart."
"It's easy for you to say. We can pull the food and grass baggage as much as we want. We can carry it on our shoulders or by hand. These are cattle and sheep. They can listen to you! They are not the army and they are well-trained." Lin Nanzheng's eyes were full of smiles.
He looked at her and shook his head.
"Look for shepherds! They know how to drive cattle and sheep." Hong Lianshuo said simply and easily.
"You have to know that these cattle and sheep are expensive!" Cao Huaimin looked at the innocent girl with his dark eyes and smiled.
"I'll give you this food and grass for free!" Hong Lianshuo looked at them with his pearl-like eyes after hearing this, and his smart eyes turned around and said, "They have thousands of horses galloping, let's have thousands of cattle galloping to attack their cavalry, let's have fun
Look!" He rubbed his chin with a smile on his face.
"Ahem..." A burst of coughing came from everywhere.
"Are you so exaggerated?" Hong Lianshuo's glazed Tong Ren looked at them and said with a smile, "This cow is going crazy, charging like a wild boar. If there are too many cows, the cavalry can be beaten to pieces."
"Why did you make the cow go crazy?" Cao Huaimin looked at her funny and said.
"The big drum is like thunder." Cao Yuanshan said with a smile.
"One side is not enough, more." Hong Wangyue shouted loudly while sitting on horseback.
"You really dare to think about it." Han Qinhu looked at their young faces and shook his head with a smile.
"Think about it? Maybe it will happen one day." Cao Yuanshan said with a smile.
"What if the big drum doesn't work? The sound is too small in an open space." Cao Huaimin said deliberately with his black eyes flashing, "Only in the grassland can the cavalry show its due effect."
"Why is Mr. Cao also making noises?" Lin Nanzheng looked at him in astonishment and said.
"Let's discuss it like a distant mountain! We are just joking. After all, it is idle time." Cao Huaimin smiled slightly, looked at Hong Lianshuo and said with a smile, "What do you think? Madam Hong."
"If the drum sound doesn't work, tie it on an ox's tail..." Hong Lianshuo suddenly braked. He wanted to say firecrackers, but we don't have those things yet! "Then tie them on bamboo knots and burn them with fire." Her eyebrows raised slightly.
He looked at them and said, "There is a loud crackling sound. Do you think the cow is crazy?"
"Ahem..." Lin Nanzheng made a fist and coughed twice, "Why are you burning bamboo? You can just burn the ox tail."
"No, no, the cow will be burned." Hong Lianshuo said without thinking.
"You are embarrassing me." Lin Nanzheng looked at her and said, dumbfounded, "Wouldn't this cow die a tragic death if it was hit?"
"That's different." Hong Lianshuo said somewhat hypocritically, "This ignition is too fast. The cows will feel it all at once, and we may hurt ourselves."
"That's true!" Han Qinhu said as he looked at them with raised eyebrows.
"Then what can we do to keep the gods unaware and the ghosts unaware?" Lin Nanzheng thought as he crossed his chin with his index finger.
"Incense." Hong Lianshuo's smart eyes turned around, and his eyes lit up and he said, "It's hard to see the situation with this smoke. The more chaotic the better!"
"Thank you for thinking it through, Xiang!" Ye Yunyu shook her head and smiled, looking at her for a moment.
"Use everything around you and use your brain!" Hong Lianshuo looked at them with his glassy eyes and said, "Besides, I'm not the first to feed war with war."
"Who is that?" Chen Zhongyuan looked at her curiously and asked.
"Bai Qi!" Hong Lianshuo looked at them with his shining eyes and said, "Before Bai Qi, influenced by Shang Yang's 'Farming and Warfare National Policy', the kings of the Qin State generally believed that forging iron is not as strong as one's own strength, and the court's food supply
, and the most important thing is the military strength. As long as the food and grass are sufficient, the soldiers and horses are strong, tactics and strategies are nothing more than auxiliary."
"That's right!" Han Qinhu nodded heavily upon hearing this, "Isn't the battle of war all about strength?"
"That's right, but Bai Qi proposed on this basis that strategy for the general is the first priority." Hong Lianshuo looked at them with his deep and bright eyes and said, "If you can fight more with less, you will not need to test the strength of the troops! With that!
Take the Battle of Yanying as an example: In 281 B.C., Chu State joined Qi and Han, and wanted to entangle a group of little brothers to fight with Qin State. King Qin Zhaoxiang immediately secretly transferred Bai Qi, who was stationed on the front line of Qin and Zhao, back.
He taught the Chu State a lesson, and when asked how many troops and horses he needed to bring, Bai Qi replied: 70,000 soldiers are enough! Upon hearing this, King Qin Zhaoxiang was so shocked that his jaw almost dropped."
"This is just a joke. Chu State is a big country, with an area of thousands of miles and millions of armors. These 70,000 people are simply going to die." Jiang Shuisheng looked at them with wide eyes and said, after thinking for a while, "
But he won in the end, why?"
"They all say: When Han Xin orders troops, the more the better. How did Bai Qi win?" Chen Zhongyuan looked at her eagerly and asked.
"King Qin Zhaoxiang originally planned to send 400,000 to 500,000 troops, but Bai Qi started to send 70,000 troops. Although he felt that it was unreliable, he still believed in Bai Qi." Hong Lianshuo looked at them with clear eyes and said, "Bai Qi came to Shangyong.
Afterwards, the troops were divided into two groups, with Bai Qi leading 70,000 elite Qin troops on the other side, heading south along the Han River, and unexpectedly penetrated deep into the hinterland of the Chu Kingdom."
"It's crazy. We are going deep alone and have no supplies." Cui Ming said in disbelief, "You still divide your troops into two groups. Do you think you have too many troops?"
"Listen to me?" Hong Lianshuo looked at them with gentle eyes and said.
"I won't interrupt." Cui Ming said apologetically.
