Feed the whole people, I just lie down and win

Chapter 158 Kill three birds with one stone, Mr. Wu is the first to offer advice!

What Douglas meant was simple.

Let Pelican County be at the forefront first to attract coalition firepower.

"Pelican County alone may not be able to satisfy Chang'an's appetite, right? The information does not show that Chang'an's three-way army is advancing at the same time, and it is obvious that they will attack from multiple directions." Rogers expressed doubts.

"Yes."

Douglas is still confident, "In addition to allowing Pelican County to disperse enemy firepower, in Choctaw County, Palm County, and Cana County, I plan to adopt guerrilla warfare tactics."

"No matter how the war develops, none of the people in the three counties will evacuate."

"The coalition forces are divided into parts and integrated into various towns and villages, and then use the advantages of local intelligence and mail transmission to set up obstacles and harass layers to delay the enemy's attack."

"The land of the three counties will be turned into three swamps."

"Let the enemy troops come in but not get out or walk, so as to buy time for the building of the city and the subsequent assembly of the coalition forces."

to be honest.

Douglas is trying to coerce the people of the three counties and adopt a "drag" tactic.

"If the enemy army slaughters the local people innocently, it will ruin Chang'an's reputation in the local area. If they don't take action against the people, they will fall into the ocean of people's war."

I have to say that Douglas is indeed something.

"Guerrilla warfare... is good, but will the lords of the three counties agree to this kind of warfare?"

This is tantamount to roasting the lords of the three counties on the fire.

Once the territory is conquered, the people and supplies cannot be sent away in advance, so it is really poor and useless.

Nothing was caught.

"The tactics can only be like this. If the lords of the three counties disagree, the coalition forces can only continue to retreat and let the lords of the three counties resist the enemy by themselves." Douglas still understated it.

Between the words, he was not at all worried about being coerced or kidnapped by the local lord.

Enough!

Rutgers didn't say anything more, and he recognized Douglas's commander-in-chief status.

"If you want to turn the land of the three counties into a quagmire of war, with only 20 coalition troops, plus the [-] local troops in the River Valley Province, I'm afraid they won't be able to stop the enemy's offensive?"

Chester followed up with questions.

"Since it is broken down into parts, there is naturally no need for the remaining 30 coalition troops to stay behind and reorganize. They can be sent directly to the towns and villages of the three counties in units of battalions."

Douglas had long thought of a countermeasure.

"Since the 30 coalition forces can arrive in time, do you consider deploying a coalition force of 10 to [-] people in Ord County?" Mike made a suggestion at the right time.

Ord County lies to the north of Pelican County.

"that's right!"

Douglas appreciated it very much, "Once Pelican County can't handle it, double insurance must be set up."

He is determined to make Pelican County a victim.

I would rather deploy the coalition forces to the second line of defense than send troops to reinforce Pelican County.

.........

Pelican County, Pelican County.

"My lord, the Alliance is treating us as scapegoats, not a single soldier is sent to reinforce." Willie, the commander of the personal guard, was very dissatisfied.

As Grant's confidant, Willie's attitude, in a sense, represents the emotions of many generals.

Everyone is vaguely aware of——

Following Grant to engage in mutiny and self-reliance, the prospect does not seem to be as good as what Grant described before.It is right to successfully occupy the mountain and become king, but Pelican County is obviously rejected by the entire league and has become a misfit.

The prospects for development are very worrying.

However, these generals have entered the Pelican County household registration, and they can't leave even if they want to.

It can only go one way to the dark.

"From the very beginning, I didn't expect the league to reinforce Pelican County. What's there to be disappointed about?" Grant was obviously more determined than Willie's impatience.

Although it was a group of panic at the beginning.

Originally, Grant's idea was to use Chang'an City as the foundation to take over Chang'an's heritage after conquering Chang'an City, and gain a firm foothold in the River Valley Province in one fell swoop.

With the foundation laid by Chang'an, even if they are rejected by the alliance, they are confident.

Because then.

It should be that the alliance is afraid of him, the great warlord, not him.

to this end.

When using the [Global Construction Accelerator Card], Grant also deliberately included Chang'an City.

result…

Chang'an's big counterattack shattered all of Grant's ambitions and plans. All the previous deployments were made for Chang'an's wedding dress in vain.

How sad!
In desperation, Grant took the next best thing and chose to capture Pelican County.

Anyway, got something.

But it was precisely because of the haste and lack of consideration that Grant realized all kinds of flaws after he actually occupied Pelican County. The biggest failure was——

Pelican County is too close to Chang'an, it is completely close to Chang'an's sphere of influence.

This led to being counted by the alliance.

Just as he gained a firm foothold in Pelican County, he was about to face another threat from Chang'an.

If it weren't for Grant's foresight, the first time he took Pelican County, all the generals who mutinied with him had entered the household registration of Pelican County, I am afraid that people's hearts are already floating.

"My lord, what should we do now?"

As a hard-core confidant, Willie hoped that Grant still had some cards.

"Don't worry, I already have a countermeasure, just wait, we're going to give the alliance a big surprise." Grant's eyes were burning.

Willie withdrew suspiciously.

Lean slightly.

Grant walked out of the lord's mansion and came to an unremarkable teahouse in the city.

"My lord, are you ready to cooperate with us?"

The boss behind the teahouse seemed to expect that Grant would come, and welcomed Grant to a private box.

"If I don't choose to cooperate, will Chang'an give priority to attacking Pelican County?"

Grant's eyes were burning.

The owner of the teahouse is a member of the Chang'an Special Forces. He was ordered by the Director of Military Affairs Qin Shuang to come to Pelican County alone to try to contact Grant.

Later, under the arrangement of Grant, such a teahouse was opened in Pelican County.

Obviously he didn't want to break the connection with Chang'an.

"Of course!"

The owner of the teahouse smiled, "Pelican County is the largest county in the River Valley Province, and it is also the weakest. If there is no special reason, there is no reason for Chang'an not to bite such a piece of fat."

"Isn't it?"

"Tell me, what do you need me to do?"

When Grant saw this, he stopped thinking about going around in circles, Ren Changan had expected everything.

What's the point of putting it on again?
The owner of the teahouse smiled and shook his head: "My lord is wrong. It's not what Chang'an needs you to do, but what you want."

"What do you mean?"

Grant frowned, disliking being lectured like this.

Anyway, he is also a small prince.

"Don't your lord think that the location of Pelican County is too embarrassing?"

The owner of the teahouse is still unhurried, "Have you never thought about expanding the living space of the territory?"

"How to expand?"

Grant finally became a little interested, "Could it be that you want me to attack Ord County north?"

"No no no!"

The owner of the teahouse shook his head again, "That would only treat the symptoms, not the root cause. As long as Pelican County is still close to Chang'an, the relationship between us is bound to be tense and cannot be fully trusted."

"That's true."

"On the side of the couch, how can you allow others to snore?"

Grant was quite surprised by the other party's straightforwardness and frankness.

"Didn't your lord think about being bolder and jumping out of the River Valley Province in one step? For example, in the Tara Province in the west, to regain a firm foothold?" The teahouse owner suggested with a smile.

"Are you joking, sir?"

Grant's face turned cold again.

The River Valley Province and the Tara Province to the west are bounded by the north-south Tara Mountains.The mountains are rolling and rolling.Only a few trails are accessible.

Lonely Mountain, located on the border of Pelican County, is one of the most convenient mountain trails.

to this end.

The province of Tara has built a fortress in Gushan, and at the same time sent provincial coalition troops to station it.

Of course, the Lonely Mountain Fortress has not yet been fully completed.

Even so, with the current strength of Pelican County, it is impossible to conquer the Gushan Fortress stationed by the 15 Tara provincial coalition forces.

More importantly——

Grant's base is in Pelican County. In Pelican County, even if he successfully extends his tentacles to Tara Province, his base camp is still close to Chang'an.

The two sides will still maintain tense relations.

What's the difference?
"How dare I, my lord might as well take a look at this."

The owner of the teahouse said as he took out a token and handed it to Grant.

Grant took it in doubt.

[Relocation Token: You can relocate the Lord's Mansion to other cities within the territory]

"There are such magical props?"

How smart Grant was, he saw the value of the "migration token" at a glance.

With this.

If he really breaks through the Gushan Fortress, he can move the Lord's Mansion to Tara Province.

That way.

It will be able to stay away from such a war vortex in the River Valley Province.

It's really called the sea is wide and the fish leaps.

"My lord, do you believe our sincerity now?" the teahouse owner laughed.

"cough."

Grant quickly recovered his mood, "Even if there is a migration token, the premise is that I can really lead my troops to conquer the Lonely Mountain Fortress. To be honest, the chance of winning is less than [-]%."

As far as [-]% of this is concerned, it is still Grant's intentional calculation and unintentional calculation.

"If, at the right time, a unit of our Tiance Corps suddenly bursts out from the Beluo Mountains and appears in the southeast corner of Tara Province, will it increase the odds of winning to [-]% to [-]%?"

The owner of the teahouse came prepared.

"Sure?"

Grant's eyes lit up suddenly.

"Adults don't think that I will joke about such a big event?"

"...Changan helped me so much, what do you want?"

Grant didn't believe in pie in the sky.

"It's very simple. After your lord establishes a firm foothold in Tara Province, Pelican County will belong to Chang'an." The owner of the teahouse said Chang'an's quotation with a smile.

But it is to take Pelican County without bloodshed.

"This…"

The foundation that was finally laid down must be handed over like this.

Grant was really reluctant.

I was also secretly surprised at Chang An's appetite, this is a white wolf with empty hands.

"Of course."

Seeing this, the owner of the teahouse added with a smile: "Chang'an only needs the land of Pelican County. As for the population and supplies, adults can take them all to Tara Province."

"it is good!"

After hearing this, Grant nodded in response.
