After the fairy disappeared

Chapter 1480 Two Solutions
The arsonist not only avoided the eyes and ears of all Qing Palace disciples, but also secretly destroyed several formations. It was truly incredible.

She suspected that it was done by a traitor, otherwise how could it be done without anyone noticing?

But the burning of the transfer warehouse caused the entire army to be short of food. She had no way to defend herself and could only accept it. The only solution now was to solve the current problem.

Lu Wushuang also understood that Bai Moji had no intention of asking Lingxu City for food.

To transport grain from Bega to here, even if starting from the nearest Baoshu Kingdom, one still has to pass through a large swamp and cross the Xiluo Kingdom and the Jintao Kingdom... Although the Xiluo Kingdom is weak, it is actually quite large in area. The transportation route is really long, and 70% to 80% of the grain will be lost on the way. Only 20% can actually be transported to the Jintao front line.

There is an old saying: A country is poorer than a teacher because it has to transport food from afar, and transporting food from afar makes the people poor. Beijia is a big family with a big business, and he will not be poor and uneasy because of a few transportation distances, but transporting food from the country proves Bai Moji's incompetence!
Why not grab food nearby? This is the best strategy for an expedition, as it not only provides food for yourself but also leaves the enemy without food.

Besides, Fushan Lie had also described the richness of the Maohe Plain. It was the autumn harvest time now, so how could Bega’s army not be able to seize food?
As for how many objective conditions restrict the front line, how could the superiors in Lingxu City consider it for Bai Moji?

I sent you there to intimidate Panlong City and Yuheng City.

I didn't ask you to come back with your rice bowl and beg for food, but also to ask for the Xiro Army's share.

To take a step back, even if Lingxu City agrees to transport food from the rear, it will take at least one or two months to travel from Baoxiang Kingdom to the Jintao front line. Even if they use heavy-duty ox monsters and elephant monsters to carry food, the speed will not be increased by ten days.

Far water cannot quench near thirst. There is a food crisis on the Jintao front now.

So Lu Wushuang did not argue, but just said: "I will take responsibility for my own problems. General Bai, do you have any way to solve the current predicament?"

Seeing that she was not shirking her responsibility, Bai Moji snorted, "Let Jin Tao continue to deliver food. Also, Xiluo Country is not far from here, and they can't shirk their responsibility!"

A country is like a sponge. If you squeeze it, you can always squeeze out some supplies.

The meaning behind these words is so cruel that if the Jin Tao people and the Xi Luo people were here, they would be horrified.

"I also sent a message to Nanding." Nanding is a small country to the north of Jinyao. Its area is almost the same as Jinyao, and it usually has little presence. But at this time, Bai Moji will not miss it.

Lu Wushuang immediately asked: "Is there any response from Nan Ding?"

"……not yet."

Lu Wushuang nodded.

Although Nan Ding and Bai Moji had no past, the latter was after all a general of Bega. Now that he had asked, Nan Ding would most likely give him some face and send some food and supplies.

However, the quantity of these food and fodder is limited, and the coordination, shipment, transportation, and customs clearance all the way to the Jintao front line takes at least ten days and at most half a month, which is very time-consuming.

Lu Wushuang was very clear about the efficiency of these small countries. It was not something that could be improved just by saying it.

It is impossible for Jin Yao's army of tens of thousands of people on the front line to just wait for these few mouthfuls of rice to be cooked.

Bai Moji also had to ask her: "By the way, what is the second solution you mentioned?"

Lu Wushuang said: "Attack Yuheng City immediately."

"Hmm?" Bai Moji was actually pondering this idea in his mind, and he became even more excited when he heard it.

He most wanted to go to the northwest front of Panlong City to kill enemies and win merits, but Lingxu City sent him to the Jintao front and asked him to cooperate with the progress of the northwest front!

His superiors also sent someone to tell him to concentrate on guarding the Jintao front and not to act rashly.

Without "rash action", there will be no battles and no military achievements.

Are you planning to give all the credit to people like Lu Wushuang and Fu Shan Lie?
Even though the generals stationed in Yuheng City were somewhat capable and had driven away Fu Shanlie, how could they compare with General Hong of Panlong City?
But if the first battle of this war is launched on the Jintao front, the competition here will also be of great importance in Lingxu City, and then Bai Moji will receive more attention.

"Looking at the terrain of Longchuan, the army can't march straight in, and the small scattered forces can't show the strength of our Bega." No matter what Lu Wushuang thought in his heart, he would not blame Bai Moji for not being able to move Longchuan and grab food. "It's not a good idea to continue wasting time like this. It's better to seize the opportunity to attack Yuheng City and use General Bai's best tactics to attack the border. In this way, the best result is to capture Yuheng City, and then all problems will be solved."

"The worst result is that we can rush to the other side and seize an auxiliary city to gain a foothold. After that, we can send troops to the plains to seize food." Bai Moji led Beijia's soldiers! If we can't get the best result, can we not get the worst result? Lu Wushuang continued, "The Maohe Plain is rich, and Panlong City will grow and develop once it takes it. There is plenty of food here, not to mention 40,000 troops, even 400,000 troops will have no problem."

The biggest problem on the Jinyao front is that they can't get a foothold in Yuheng City. Bai Moji felt annoyed when he thought of this.

Just as Lu Wushuang said, wasting time is not a solution. Although this does not conform to the strategy Lingxu had formulated early on, how can a living person be suffocated to death by urine, right?

"You and I jointly petition Lingxu." The messages went back and forth very quickly.

Lu Wushuang still didn't refuse: "Okay."

When she walked out of the big tent, a smile appeared on her lips.

"Master Zhifu." Her personal guards, the female soldiers who accompanied her, brought her a thin coat and put it on. The night wind by the river was already a little chilly.

Lu Wushuang walked along the river, her clothes fluttering, and she suddenly said, "The wind has changed."

"Yes, there has been an easterly wind recently at night."

There were only two dim lights on the other side of the river. They were soldiers from Yuheng City patrolling the river bank.

Lu Wushuang stared at the two points of light and cursed, "What a useless person!"

The guards didn't know what this meant and didn't dare to respond.

"Relying on the influence of your ancestors, you really think you are a dish." This sentence was even more vague, even the guards couldn't hear it clearly.

Lu Wushuang strolled along the river for more than an hour, until the lights on the other side disappeared, then she turned and walked back to the camp.

She was not in a hurry at all for the battle on the Jin Yao front. She was just the commander of the Xi Luo Army, and there was only one thing she could do at the moment, which was to drive these cannon fodder to the front to die.

These were not her soldiers, let alone her subjects, so why was she so anxious? Although Bai Moji had signed the petition to the imperial capital, everyone knew that she was just a co-signer, and the real petitioner was Bai Moji.

A few days later, Lingxu City replied:
No!

Do not move without permission!

The battles in Panlong Wasteland and Maohe Plain are a game of chess. What qualifications does Bai Moji have to take the first move?
We must obey the overall situation.
