my unparalleled way

Chapter 1269 at a loss
Yes, she already understood Lin Si's plan.

The Moon Kingdom Qiansong and the Grassland were originally enemies, and the Grassland Country was originally the primary target of many people's guesses.

When the Moon Kingdom and Qian Song joined forces, and millions of troops marched into the grassland, no one would suspect that they had other intentions.

They can even fight a few small-scale wars on the grassland first to deceive others.

The biggest trouble in fighting on the grassland is that the terrain is single and there is no reference.The army of the Qianlanyue Kingdom who attacked the grassland in the past sometimes lost their way.

But with Ji Bingyun, the prairie nemesis, all this is not a problem at all.

She will accurately lead the army to the Qianlan border in the north of the grassland, and at the same time, the Qianlan people will not be able to detect it beforehand, because the grassland is different from other countries, there are no cities and villages, and the population is sparsely populated. It is difficult to install spies and eyes.

The army of one million seems to be a lot, but after it is sprinkled into the grassland, it is like water drops into the sea. Who will know where they are at that time?
At that time, when the Yue Kingdom army raided the southern border of Qianlan, the Qianlan people would not have the slightest defense at all.

They would never have imagined in their dreams that the Yue people who were fighting fiercely with the prairie people two days ago would suddenly appear in front of them.Coupled with the help of Shifanglou, the chances of a successful sneak attack are extremely high.

Once the Qianlan border falls and the frontier army is overwhelmed, then the Yue Kingdom army will be able to drive straight in.

With Lin Si's plan, there is no need for a million-strong army to hide their whereabouts, which is almost impossible to succeed.They can completely kill them with great fanfare, and in the end they can also play the role of a sneak attack.

If Lin Si hadn't mentioned this, she would have thought it was a dream.Even if Lin Si didn't tell the intention behind it, she wouldn't be able to guess it for a while.

And this move has another benefit, that is the steppe country itself.

Yueguo was worried that when Yueguo attacked Ganlan, the prairie people would take the opportunity to attack Yueguo itself.But according to Lin Si's plan, this worry can be completely put down.

Historically, when faced with an army far superior in strength to their own, most of the tactics adopted by the grassland people were to retreat first to avoid the enemy's sharp edge.After introducing the enemy into the hinterland of the grassland, look for opportunities to nibble away a little bit.

Facing an army of one million, as well as Lin Si and Ji Bingyun, it is naturally impossible for the prairie people to fight head-on.They will run away early, far, far away.

In fact, this is tantamount to expelling the grassland people first.

After thinking about all this, Yue Luoning was in a good mood.

Since Lin Si's return, she has already started planning for the foreign war. Although the preparation is still not sufficient, she can't wait to start the battle tomorrow.

As for the specific strategies and tactics, it is natural to wait for Lin Si, Ji Bingyun and the rest of the generals to formulate them.She was very self-aware and had no intention of interfering in it.

This is Lin Si and Ji Bingyun, one of them is her own younger brother, and the other is her fifth sister, both of whom can be completely trusted.

If it was replaced by other generals, it would naturally not be so simple.

"Besides Bing Yun, who else do you plan to let go with you this time?"

"Second Brother Ye and Xue Chen must of course be brought along. Qianlan Country is too big, and the battle line will be very long. We need generals who can stand alone."

"Aren't you afraid that Qingchuan will take the opportunity to cross the Lanjiang River when Xue Chen leaves?" Yue Luoning asked worriedly.

Now Xue Chen has returned to the northeast of Yue Kingdom, in order to prevent the Qingchuan people from making moves, and at the same time prepare for the future conquest of Qingchuan.

"Gu Yuda and Yu Wencheng can stay, one rejects Qingchuan, and the other rejects the grassland."

"But their soldiers..."

"The Northwest Army will not participate in the plan to attack Ganlan. As for the east, the 50 defeated soldiers from the last campaign against Liangyue can transfer 30 to fill the vacancy of the Northeast Army, and the other 20 will go to Yincheng to garrison."

Lin Si will of course take precautions against the mainland of Yue Kingdom, and will not relax at all.And to attack Ganlan, of course, the troops with the strongest combat effectiveness in the Yue Kingdom should be brought along.

The Northern Army and the Northeast Army are considered to be the two best-preserved and most effective armies in the Yue Kingdom.

However, this didn't make Yue Luoning completely relieved.

"Will the troops you bring to Ganlan be a little too small?"

"A lot, 40 Northeast Army, 60 Northern Army, these are the strongest forces I have ever owned. What's more, there is Bing Yun's [-] Song Army."

Hearing what he said, Yue Luoning didn't say anything further.

An army of one million is an extremely huge number. To be honest, there has never been a war of this scale in the history of the Moon Kingdom.

It is amazing to have an army of 40 to 40 in a big battle.That's not to say that everything will be fine if you gather [-] or [-] people. There are often several times more civilians behind the scenes, as well as an unimaginable burden of expenses.

And this is the top priority for her, Yue Luoning, to solve in the future.

But to capture a big country like Qianlan, in the eyes of many people, even a million troops is not enough.It's like attacking Gaozhen's Shenyan Empire. Now there are more than two million troops, but there is still not much progress.

And Gan Lan is not much weaker than Gao Zhen when it comes to the size of the territory and national strength.

However, Yue Luoning has absolute confidence in Lin Si and Ji Bingyun when fighting such things.

"Actually, if Qianlan is really defeated, the two countries of Qingchuan and Tianhe may not have to go through war." Lin Si stroked his chin thoughtfully.

"You mean, persuade to surrender?" Yue Luoning frowned.

"That's right, in the battle of Qianlan, Shifanglou will fight in full force. Once we win that battle, Qingchuan Tianhe's monarchs and ministers will only be in panic all day long. When the time comes to promise them some glory and wealth, these two countries may directly surrender. "

The more Lin Si thought about it, the more he felt that it made sense. It is true that no one wants to subjugate the country. It is not uncommon to resist such things in order to defend the country.But if they really defeated Gan Lan, who was far stronger than them, the Qingchuan people would not fail to see their next fate.

After all, Qingchuan is in the hands of the royal family and noble ministers. If he knew that resistance would destroy the country and his family, he would be stabbed to death in advance.Although it is difficult to preserve the current power and position by surrendering, it can still maintain the glory and wealth, and even have the opportunity to continue to be an official in the Moon Kingdom.

Of course, even if it is a surrender, it is impossible to be as relaxed as Lin Si's armistice agreement back then. This surrender is the real subjugation of the country, not just a large army to gather Qingchuan.

If Qingchuan Tianhe can surrender directly in the future, it will save the life-threatening war.Although there will still be sporadic spontaneous resistance, it will be much smaller.

Similar things have happened in the history of the mainland, and most of them happened between some big and small countries with great disparity in strength.

It's just that Lin Si can't guarantee whether this matter will be successful or not. After all, what if Qingchuan's monarch and ministers would rather die than surrender?He could only wait for the future to become clearer.

Yue Luoning thought for a long time, and finally nodded: "You are right, if you can really subdue Qingchuan Tianhe smoothly, it would be great. If it can be done, I will treat Qingchuan people, Tianhe people kindly, talented people, and It will continue to be reused. It’s just that all of this will have to wait until you defeat Gan Lan.”

"Ah."

After the two finished their conversation, Lin Si who left the study went straight to Yongqiu Hall.

From Tang Xiaozhi's mouth, he already knew the news of Hua Susu's return. Lin Si, who was quite worried about her, of course hoped that she could forget her hatred and become happy from now on.

It's just that what Yue Luoning talked about just now were all important matters, and he didn't have the chance to ask, lest she complain that she only cared about the love between her children.

In his opinion, Zhou Zichuan should be dead, right?Otherwise, Yue Luoning would not be so calm.

Yue Luoning has already strictly ordered idlers not to approach Yongqiu Palace, and has issued a gag order to the dozen eunuchs and maids in this bedroom, and there are more than a dozen secret guards around here to keep watch.

However, Lin Si's arrival certainly did not cause the slightest surprise, and no one even considered reporting to Yue Luoning.In many people's minds, this Yue Kingdom still belongs to Lin Si, this is his back garden, and he can come back anytime.

He quickly arrived outside the bedroom smoothly, and even though he didn't intentionally concentrate on eavesdropping on anything, the silver bell-like laughter still reached his ears.

Lin Si's mood improved unconsciously, because the last time he heard that relaxed and cheerful familiar laughter was in the cave of Qingyue Forest many years ago.

She didn't seem to be that happy after that.

"Sister Su, I'm here..." He stepped straight into the courtyard door, and the garden outside the palace greeted his eyes.

His words could not continue anymore, because the scene in front of him made him feel extremely absurd, so absurd that he almost didn't know what to do.

Hua Susu did appear in his line of sight, and she was indeed smiling, getting carried away, but what she was doing made Lin Si's smile froze instantly.

She is 'riding a horse' in this garden, but if it is really a horse, this rather secluded garden may be trampled to a bad shape.

She was riding a human being, and although that person had long since lost his original demeanor and eyes, Lin Si still recognized him at a glance——Zhou Zichuan.

He didn't die, but Lin Si suddenly felt that it might be better for him who was humiliated like this to die a heroic death, even if it was suicide...

He was lying on the ground and being ridden by Hua Susu as a horse, with an iron chain around his mouth, and the other end of the iron chain was held on Hua Susu's right hand, while her left hand held a The branches serve as whips.

The clothes Zhou Zichuan was wearing belonged to eunuchs, and the clothes below the knees had already been worn out.

Lin Si didn't know how long this strange thing between the two of them lasted, but he knew that Zhou Zichuan must not have done it voluntarily, otherwise there wouldn't be little bloodstains on the gravel road, which flowed from his worn-out knee.

For Lin Si's arrival, he just raised his head and glanced, then lowered his eyes.There was no shame or resentment, let alone hatred, and there was nothing but ashes.

Seeing Zhou Zichuan fall into such a fate, Lin Si felt a strong discomfort in his heart.

Of course, it is impossible to resolve the hatred between him and Zhou Zichuan, and there is no sympathy for each other.It was impossible for him to sympathize with Zhou Zichuan, but he still felt unavoidably that a person like him should not be treated like this.

In any case, Zhou Zichuan was an enemy that he valued, and he was someone who had successfully plotted against him so that he did not dare to be careless.

He didn't know why he had such a weird idea. It stands to reason that no matter how the enemy treats him, it can't be too much, right?

When Hua Susu smiled and said "jump off the horse", and shouted "Ah Si, you are here" with a look of surprise, he no longer knew how to answer her words.
