The Republic of China: Twins with a beautiful start, navigating a troubled world

After listening to Zhao He's words, Xia Wanru did not make a statement immediately. Instead, she picked up a pen and circled the location of the Hongmen River pier, and then drew a line down the Hongmen River and into the Zhao River. The tributary pointed to spans half of the Dragon Valley mountain forest and reaches its end point.

And this position is exactly on the right side of the Xu Jiajun.

"Wonderful! It's really wonderful! If we march into the Longgu Mountain Forest now and rely on walking, we will definitely have to trek through mountains and rivers. Not only will we be exhausted by then, but we may also be unable to catch up. But if we march according to the water route you mentioned, we will not only save a lot of money. With physical strength, and going down the river, the speed will probably be even faster.”

After a brief analysis, Xia Wanru's eyes suddenly shone with praise, and she gave a thumbs up to Zhao He and said: "The key is that we can also directly reach the right side of Xu Jiajun. They will definitely not know that we will fight out from there. We will definitely do it when the time comes. Kill them by surprise and leave no trace behind."

Speaking of this, Xia Wanru paused and said, "Brother Zhao, I really admire you more and more."

Growing up, under the influence of her father, Xia Wanru had developed a keen interest in leading troops in war. She had memorized all kinds of military books and mastered them.

Growing up, she had come into contact with many people who were good at fighting, but she had never met anyone like Zhao He, who just glanced at the map and came up with a seamless plan at his fingertips.

This kind of strategy and this kind of character made Xia Wanru admire her even more.

Zhao He smiled and said: "You are too flattering to me. When I came here, I had already checked the map and had already made up my mind. I wanted to rush to support by boat. It happened that through your explanation, I knew There is a war going on at the Hongmen River Wharf, so we should immediately send troops to the Hongmen River Wharf to capture this place, and then take a boat to Longgu Mountain Forest."

Hongmenjiang Wharf is one of the largest wharves in Fengtai Province. A large number of merchant ships and passenger ships gather here. As long as this place is occupied, there is no need to worry about not having enough ships.

"Brother Zhao is right, we can leave for this place immediately." Xia Wanru immediately praised.

She was obviously very supportive of Zhao He's plan.

Zhao He nodded and said: "Let's set off tomorrow morning!"

However, after saying this, his face was still very gloomy, without any hint of happiness.

Xia Wanru immediately noticed the other person's expression and couldn't help but asked in confusion: "Brother Zhao, are you worried about something?"

Zhao He nodded and said: "It will take at least three days to capture the Hongmen River Pier and then take a boat to Longgu Mountain Forest. There will be a fierce battle in Longgu Mountain Forest. I can't guarantee that I can capture the enemy quickly." , I'm afraid that there won't be enough time. Once the Xu family army takes over the Huangjinpo Plain, your father's side may..."

Hearing this, Xia Wanru's heart skipped a beat, and her face suddenly turned pale.

Of course she knew what the other party meant. With the speed of the Xu Jiajun's attack at this moment, in less than a week, they would probably capture the Huangjin Slope Plain and reach the Xia Jiajun headquarters.

If the support arrives too late, the Xia Army's base camp may have been captured before Zhao He and the others arrive.

"You're right to worry. I'm afraid it's too late." Xia Wanru took a deep breath, even if she didn't want to, she still told the truth.

Zhao He stared at the map and was in a dilemma for a moment. Their current location was the fastest one to reach, which was the Longgu Mountain Forest. As for the Huangjinpo Plain, the distance was too far. Even if they traveled long distances day and night, it would be too late. .

"I have a plan!"

While Zhao He was thinking deeply, Xia Wanru suddenly thought of something and her eyes lit up.

"Say it quickly! What's the plan?" Upon hearing this, Zhao He's eyes suddenly lit up.

"We are now at the Tiangou Bridge location. It is indeed far away from the Huangjinpo Plain, but it is only two days away from Fengtai City. I am not sure about the specific location of the Xu Jiajun's base camp, but their support troops, food and grass, etc., are definitely It is transported in this general direction. If we send a group of troops to kill the rear of the Xu Jiajun, on the one hand we will block their food and grass transportation, and on the other hand, they will definitely think that we will sneak attack the Xu Jiajun's base camp and attack the Huangjinpo Plain from the front. The Xu family's army will definitely be in chaos, and people will definitely be sent to support and stop them. As long as they withdraw their troops, the pressure on my father's side will be greatly reduced." Xia Wanru said while drawing circles on the map.

Zhao He listened and quickly analyzed the situation in his mind. The more he heard the following, the brighter his eyes became.

"Okay, what a 'inserting general' strategy. If you do this, the worst result is that both sides will suffer losses. In the end, there may be a glimmer of hope." Zhao He gave a thumbs up and praised Xia Wanru.

Xia Wanru felt a little embarrassed, touched the back of her head and said, "There is no other way. I can only choose to fight like this."

Zhao He nodded, then thought of something, and asked, "Do you think this old guy, Fourth Master Xu, is hiding in Fengtai City?"

"Impossible!" Xia Wanru shook her head and said: "We have placed spies in Fengtai City. Before preparing for the war, Fourth Master Xu had already taken away his relatives. No one knows where they went. They are not in Fengtai anyway. In the city.”

Speaking of this, Xia Wanru immediately circled the map, "This place is called 'Moon-shaped Mountain'. The Xu Family Army has a military base here. There is also this location called 'Longyun Cave', which is also a military base area for the Xu Family Army. Currently we These are the only two people who know, but Fourth Master Xu is not a fool. He should not be hiding in these two military camps and should be giving orders elsewhere!"

Zhao He nodded and said, "As long as you know the general direction."

"Tang Li and Sun Tao are responsible for attacking Yang Xiaohu's Yang family army. Counting the time, they should arrive tomorrow. So..."

Speaking of this, Zhao He paused for a moment and said, "I arranged for He Changjun to lead his troops to the Hongmen River Pier to win the victory. You and I will meet Tang Li and Sun Tao here. After they arrive, we will The two led part of the troops to implement the plan of 'inserting the general', and the other part of the troops went to the Hongmen River dock, and then took a boat secretly to Longgu Mountain Forest!"

"Well, okay, I'll do as you say!" After hearing Zhao He's arrangement, Xia Wanru immediately raised her hands and agreed.

Next, the two discussed the plan in detail, forgetting the time and all the surrounding scenery. Before they knew it, three hours had passed.

It's already one o'clock in the morning!

Only at this moment did Zhao He react. He looked at the time and said in surprise: "Damn it! It's already one o'clock, so fast!"

Xia Wanru was a little surprised: "Huh? Damn it? What does this mean?"

"This..." Zhao He was a little embarrassed and couldn't help himself, so he said the popular Internet word in the future, "This is a kind of surprise, dialect."

Xia Wanru nodded in understanding.

"It's getting late. We have to take action very early tomorrow morning. You'd better take the time to rest." Zhao He said as he stood up and stretched.

Xia Wanru nodded and said, "Brother Zhao, you should go back and rest soon."

"Okay!" Zhao He nodded. Seeing Xia Wanru following suit to see him off, he waved his hand and said, "There's no need to see him off. I'm just in the tent next door. I'll be there in a few steps."

He said as he spoke. He opened the curtain and walked out of the tent.

Although Xia Wanru did not follow him out of the tent, she looked at Zhao He's back through the gap at the entrance of the tent and looked at him. The corners of his mouth couldn't help but raise slightly, and he couldn't help but reveal a little girl's smile.

Until Zhao He's back disappeared from the end of the field of vision, Xia Wanru reluctantly withdrew her gaze and turned back to the bed.
