Flags were fluttering on the Pearl River, and vehicles and ships were clearing the way to the east. Each vehicle and ship had a densely studded iron hull, with a huge iron horn installed in the underwater part of the bow, and the decks were densely covered with crossbows. and thunder cannons, and countless armored soldiers lined up on them, each with bright armor and high energy. Although there were many people, their military appearance was solemn and silent. In the morning light, the huge fleet flew away with guns, covering the river with a rainbow-like momentum. .

Following closely behind are dozens of five-toothed ships. This ship is so huge that it looks like dozens of skyscrapers standing majestically on the river, just like a water mobile fortress. There are dense arrow windows on all sides, and the roof is densely covered with giant crossbows, giant cannons and Racket sticks and other water fighting weapons.

In addition, the ship also carried countless iron-leaf chariots or armored war horses, which was a sight to behold. On both sides of the ship, there were three layers of extremely long oars, and each oar required dozens of sailors to row together. .But listening to the oars moving in unison, it can be said that the sound of water plowing in all directions shakes the sky.

A drop of morning dew fell on the yellowed map, breaking the tranquility that the Five-Tooth Ship should have had. At this time, Chen Hao slowly raised his head, looking at the river and fell into deep thought. Shi Xiong, Li Shu, Li Hong, Shi Zhong and the other four stood aside, no one spoke, and they all waited silently for Chen Hao to issue military orders. The morning fog on the river made it difficult to see the distant scenery clearly, but this did not affect Chen Hao's mood of staring into the distance, because He was not watching the scenery at all at the moment.

Chen Hao has mobilized many ships in the past few days just for today's use. However, what surprised Chen Hao is that the military ships of the Tang Dynasty today already have the prototype of later warships. Regarding this large-scale five-tooth ship, Chen Hao passed by Only after understanding it did I realize that the so-called Wuya Ship was built in the Sui and Tang Dynasties. Its predecessor was the main warship building ship in the Han Dynasty. This kind of giant ship can accommodate two thousand armored soldiers, and can drive chariots and horses on board. It is famous for its huge size.

However, Chen Hao was delighted with this huge warship, but he also felt inexplicably helpless. The naval equipment during the Sui and Tang Dynasties was already so advanced, and it reached its peak during the Song and Ming Dynasties. However, in the Qing Dynasty, the warships were finally used by the Western powers. Knocking on the door of China, the proud warship will eventually become a pile of sawdust.

This is the difficult knot in Chen Hao's heart. He is confident that with his own abilities, he can use the knowledge of future generations to change this era. However, after careful consideration, he feels that it is boring. Today's Datang technology is not enough. Advanced? Since it is the most advanced country in the current era, why did it eventually become a backward nation after several dynasties?

This is a question worth pondering. It is precisely because of this consideration that he did not change too many things. Because Chen Hao knew very well that even at this moment, he used the technology of later generations to advance various technologies of the Tang Dynasty several times. It will take a hundred years, but the final result will still be back to the original track. It will still lag behind Western countries, and it will still have the fate of falling behind and being beaten for a period of time. Rather than saying that this is a fate that is difficult to change in the historical trajectory, it is better to say that it is the bad nature of China's feudal society. .Because of arrogance, one is arrogant, and because of contempt, one is doomed to decline and ignorance.

Chen Hao used to be an online novel author, and he was used to seeing a lot of jokes about time-travelers changing the world structure. But now that he was standing here, he felt even more whimsical and inconsistent with the times. Human abilities are so limited. Genghis Khan can be said to be the representative of feudal society. The Mongolian cavalry galloped across several continents and was invincible. But what was gained in the end? The four great empires collapsed in a few decades, and the Central Plains was lost in less than a century...

Napoleon is a representative of the early stage of capitalism. What did such a great and hegemonic little giant get in the end? It was not a disastrous defeat. Some people may question the backwardness of technology and its inability to highlight the superiority of the strong. Chen Hao feels

These are even more ridiculous. Who started the Second World War? It was obviously fascist Germany! It would not be an exaggeration to call Germany one of the most advanced countries at that time, but what was the outcome? In the end, it really got what it deserved

Do you want to rule the world?

Human appetite is very limited, and the annexation of political power is also limited. When it reaches its due limit, greedy devouring will definitely result in backlash. Therefore, Chen Hao does not want to change too much, nor does he want to annex too much. A country cannot

Enemy

People look around and see that even if they are rich and powerful, they will eventually perish in peace and happiness. But facing the current Tubo, Nanzhao, and Bohai Three Kingdoms, Chen Hao will never let it go. As for how his future destiny should develop, it is not his responsibility.

To think about.

…

Chen Hao recovered his thoughts but sighed slightly. After a long silence, he turned around and looked at everyone: "Last night I asked you to discuss how to invade Annan. I wonder if you have any good ideas today?"

Seeing that everyone was silent and looking directly at him, Chen Hao couldn't help but smile bitterly and thought to himself, you can't count on me for everything. From now on, the country of Datang will not belong to one person. Thinking of this, he

Helplessly, he called out his name and said, "Your Majesty, do you have any good ideas?"

Li Shu gently stroked his beard and pondered for a moment before saying: "Now the rebels are gathering in Jiaozhi. However, the road from Yongzhou to Jiaozhi is relatively short. Along the way, it passes through Longzhou, Simingzhou, Shixizhou, and Liangzhou. We can wait until the four states are conquered."

Go straight south to reach Jiaozhi. This section of the road is only more than 600 miles apart. If we advance day and night, we can reach Jiaozhi in less than two days..."

Speaking of this, Li Chang looked embarrassed, and then continued: "However, the area around Langzhou is full of mountains, known as the Hundred Thousand Mountains, which separate Yongzhou and Jiaozhi. The terrain is steep and difficult to defend and difficult to attack.

And it is not conducive to the passage of our heavy armored cavalry and armored chariots. Those who can attack Langzhou can only be captured by our infantry. Therefore, the general believes that how to break through Liangzhou is the top priority now!"

After listening to Li Shu's thoughts, Chen Hao nodded in agreement: "Recently, the Japanese commander has also studied the topography of Annan and the deployment of many cities. Liangzhou is a military powerhouse and a strategic hub for north-south transportation. He and his colleagues climbed the city in tandem with each other.

The shape of the horns echoes each other, and the danger of the mountain is really difficult to pass..."

Chen Hao's words made everyone's expressions darken, and they thought that the commander-in-chief didn't have a perfect strategy to defeat the enemy. It seemed that this battle was not going to be fought. But when everyone looked a little solemn, Chen Hao solemnly said: "

So I decided not to face the enemy from the front!"

"Oh? Please let me know, Commander-in-Chief!" When Shi Xiong heard that Chen Hao had a plan to defeat the enemy, he became energetic.

Seeing that everyone was in good spirits, Chen Hao showed a smile: "In that case, I won't go around in circles anymore. Li Shu, Li Hong will follow your orders!"

"The end is here!"

"I order you and me to lead our headquarters of 50,000 troops and attack Tongdeng and Langzhou on a large scale in order to lure the enemy's main force. If the enemy is strong, we will mainly use feint attacks. If the enemy is weak, we will forcefully attack Liangzhou and go straight to the barbarian army's lair!"

"

"The last general takes command!"

Chen Hao then glanced at Shi Zhong who was eager to try, but then his eyes fell on Shi Xiong: "Shi Xiong obeys the order!"

"The end is here!"

"I order you to lead 30,000 cavalrymen in our headquarters to conduct a concealed attack on Luping City. If the surprise attack is successful, we can reach Jiaozhi in less than two days!"

"The last general takes command!"

After saying that, Chen Hao sat down on his own. Seeing this, Shi Zhong felt as if a cat had scratched him. He finally couldn't help but bowed and said: "Commander, where is the general..."

"You? You just stay with me..."

"Ah! That, Marshal, this..."

"What the hell, are you still at a loss if you stay with me?" Chen Hao saw Shi Zhong's embarrassed expression and had plans to tease him.

Shi Zhong hesitated, not knowing what to say: "It's not... the commander-in-chief, in fact, the last general..."

"Okay, Zhong'er, the commander-in-chief has his own reasons for keeping you by his side!" At this time, Shi Xiong interrupted Shi Zhong's words and tried to persuade him with deep meaning.

Li Chen, who was beside him, thought for a moment and seemed to have a clear understanding, but then he shook his head, smiled brightly and said to Shi Zhong: "My nephew has been studying with the Marshal for a long time, can't he still see what the Marshal wants?"

Shi Zhong couldn't help but be startled by the reminders from his father and Li Shu, and then he looked at Chen Hao. Seeing Chen Hao looking at him with a calm expression, he concentrated and then seriously considered the previous transfer order.

After pondering for a moment, Shi Zhong suddenly realized: "The general understands!"

"Oh? What do you understand?" Chen Hao asked with interest.

Shi Zhong admired him very much, but he was full of confidence and solemnly said: "The commander-in-chief has assigned two groups of troops before. This third group should be the navy. Wherever the warship passes, there should be a big fanfare, so that the Nanman spies mistakenly think that I am on board."

With an army of 10,000, this can cover the two previous groups of troops! Although it is too far to reach Jiaozhi by sea, it effectively confuses the enemy's judgment! Therefore, the commander only left 20,000 troops, which was actually just a bluff..."

Seeing his father and Li Shu's expressions of appreciation, Shi Zhong knew that what he said was right. However, when he looked at Chen Hao with joy on his face, he found that Chen Hao still had a sinking face and no mood swings. After a while,

Chen Haocai said: "We will proceed as planned at midnight tonight! The three generals should go back and prepare first!"

"General, please retire!" The three of them bowed and retreated, preparing to deploy their troops.

After the three people left, Chen Hao glanced at Shi Zhong, and then said coldly: "If you want to be a qualified commander, you must not be an afterthought but be proactive. You must think before the soldiers in everything.

The commander-in-chief's strategy of dividing the troops led Li Chang and Shi

Both Xiong and Xiong have already understood, but you only realized it later without thinking. How can you achieve great things if you are so unwilling to make progress? Everything requires a lot of thinking, not just courage! Can you alone control a war?

?”

The two young people should be friends with each other, but now they are like a strict master training his disciples. Although Shi Zhong has always had a bad temper, at this moment he listened sincerely and did not dare to be disrespectful. After Chen Hao ridiculed, he finally asked softly: "

If you are two years older than me, do you feel dissatisfied when I reprimand you like this?"

Wow!

Shi Zhong lifted his skirt and knelt down on one knee, and responded with a solemn expression: "The commander-in-chief once said that the sea is open to all rivers and has tolerance. If you can't hear a few words, how can you talk about brainstorming? Besides, what the commander-in-chief said is profound.
