The Prodigal Son of the Empire

Now the morale of the whole army is high

Wang Kang's prestige has reached

When he came to the front line, he first withstood the enemy's full-scale attack, defeated Xiang Lie in the Huli Plain, and then captured Gaoyi City to stabilize the overall situation.

The victory in the battle of Changning became a turning point in the war against Chu. After this battle, they will no longer be passively attacked, but will be the active offensive side

The army is rested.

The generals also came up with an idea, and set off a wave of appeals. Taking advantage of the big victory, they should break through Changning in one fell swoop, wipe out the remnants of the enemy army, and expand the results of the battle...

However, at this time, Wang Kang stood still abnormally. Facing the crowd asking for a fight, he only responded, and the time did not come.

today.

All the generals came to the commander's camp again to ask for a battle.

Lu Zhao was the first to speak: "Commander, our army's morale is high right now, and our fighting spirit is strong. It is the best time to take advantage of the situation and attack Changning City."

"yes"

Everyone agreed one after another.

Zhu Ziming said: "This is not our wish, but the request of the whole army..."

"Does Commander-in-Chief have any concerns? As the capital of Eternal Kingdom, Changning City is the largest city. It is easy to defend and difficult to attack. I am afraid that a strong attack will cause too much loss?"

"Ha ha"

"General Wu is worrying too much."

Lu Zhao smiled and said: "We have the Shenji Battalion and the Fuyang Air Force. Isn't it easy to capture Changning City?"

Hearing this, everyone laughed.

It is no secret that the Fuyang Air Force has officially appeared in this battle.

"and many more."

hear this.

Wang Kang said: "Whether it is the Shenji Battalion or the Fuyang Air Force, there are many restrictions on their use, and they are not invincible. Don't put everything on them, understand?"

He felt the need to remind.

Now that the Shenji Battalion and Fuyang Air Force are completely exposed, it will inevitably bring some coquettish air to the generals in the army, making them feel confident.

This is not a good phenomenon.

Since the beginning of the war, the amount of gunpowder has been huge.

If he hadn't developed for many years and had a lot of reserves, he would have been unable to persist.

Even so, it consumes a lot, and it cannot be used endlessly.

The war is not over.

He must be reserved, and he cannot use it on a large scale after the test. Good steel must be used on the edge of the knife.

Successive victories are sometimes not a good thing. If morale is high and goes to the extreme, it will become a proud soldier.

Wang Kang must kill this trend in time

He said: "I know that you all have a strong fighting spirit, but I have other plans."

"Changning City is the capital of the Heng Kingdom, and there are a lot of residents in the city. Heng Wang Xiang Tai's benevolent government has won the hearts of the people. They have experienced a great defeat. Attacking the city at this time will inspire the residents in the city to be determined to defend the city and forcibly attack the city. It is not good for our army. .”

Wang Kang said: "From the beginning of the war, I have been emphasizing that we can outsmart and never attack by force. Our army has limited strength and should be cherished. Do you understand?"

The generals were thoughtful, and only then did they understand Wang Kang's painstaking efforts.

The Chu army was defeated one after another, and the wear and tear continued, because they could be defeated, but they could not afford to be defeated.

If the number of troops is seriously reduced, the war will not be able to continue.

"But aren't we going to attack the city?"

Someone raised an objection.

"of course not."

Wang Kang said: "Tentative strategy, surround but not fight"

"This battle is over, we have the initiative, and the enemy is more anxious than us. They should understand that Changning cannot be defended. It is only a matter of time, so I think they will abandon the city and break through."

"Understood, you want to wait for them to break through before we intercept and attack"

"Yes and no."

Wang Kang said: "Comparatively speaking, I value the people of Changning City more..."

"What's the explanation?"

People are more puzzled.

Wang Kang said in a deep voice: "I said a long time ago that Chu's territory is huge, and it is impossible for us to capture every place, so we must take advantage of their internal social conflicts."

"Hengguo is considered different from the vassal states of Chu. This is mainly due to Hengwang Xiangtai's style of governing the country. He is supported by the people. When he abandons the city and flees, the people in the city will be desperate. We can take this opportunity to subdue and win the hearts of the people."

"Just like Gaoyi City, once it succeeds, it will be more in the name of our benevolence and righteousness, and then it will be easier to fight, with twice the result with half the effort. Comparatively speaking, this is more meaningful than killing the enemy"

These words made people think.

They also knew this point of view before, it seems that the commander-in-chief is going to play a big game

Wang Kang said: "And I'm also waiting for a news, or a person's attitude..."

The first thousand and 470 chapters and five battle kings!

Wang Kang didn't say what kind of news he was waiting for, what kind of attitude he was waiting for, and all the generals were used to the style of the Commander-in-Chief.

He often plans to act later, and no one can know his plan until the end.

This style also makes people feel that the Commander-in-Chief is unpredictable...

The matter of asking for a fight was suppressed by Wang Kang.

He really wants to play a big game of chess. He can't win Chu State in war, but he can definitely use people's hearts, and this is what he is best at.
