I don't want to play anymore

"Zuocheng?"

As soon as Gu Jingyuan finished speaking, discussions began to ring out in the tent one after another.

"This king is a bit unclear." This time it was King Guangping who spoke first.

He looked at Gu Jingyuan with great interest: "Since Lord Hou said to attack the left, it means that the Beirong will distribute the main forces in the right city. But where does this inference come from, Lord Hou?"

"Although the lower officials say they are going to attack the left side, they don't believe that the main forces are in the right city." Gu Jingyuan shook his head and said.

But seeing that everyone's eyes were on him, he didn't look sloppy and walked directly to the sand table.

He is used to drooping his eyebrows and eyes, and his gestures are extremely restrained, and he walks in front of everyone as gentle as jade, full of bookishness.

But when his slender, white fingers held a small flag and suddenly sank into the sand, Gu Jingyuan's breath changed at this moment.

become more capable.

The whole person also looks more upright, like a sharp sword, even though it has been out of its sheath for many years, it is still straight and sharp, and the sword shines through cold light.

He talked eloquently: "If this chess represents Beiya's military strength, according to what the general just said, Beiya will have about 1 to [-] troops. Although Beiya's national strength is not as good as Beirong, everyone is born For hunters, individual soldiers are more brave and good at fighting than Beiya soldiers. Therefore, in order to resist Beiya's offensive, Beirong can only send more soldiers and horses. Here we speculate that it is [-] to [-] people. "

As he spoke, he took out a chess piece of another color to represent Bei Rong.

"Everyone knows that almost all the camps of Beirong were defeated, and now it is the troops in the left city and the right city who are absolutely loyal to the king of Beirong. If we want to resist Beiya, we can only draw troops from the left and right cities. , In this way, the number of troops left by Bei Rong to fight against us is less than [-]..."

"We have considered the situation that Lord Hou said before."

A general below said: "But even if there are [-] soldiers left in Beirong, we can only deploy [-] troops here. In addition to the natural geographical location of the left and right cities, it is easy to defend and difficult to attack. If the king of Beirong [-] troops are concentrated in one place, or [-] are concentrated in one place... If we attack rashly at that time, I'm afraid we will be doomed."

Faced with doubts, Gu Jingyuan said bluntly: "No."

"...Master Hou?" The general was puzzled.

Gu Jingyuan paused for a moment, then frowned, and said softly, "There won't be any surprises."

As he spoke, he fixed his eyes on the sand table, and when the other party questioned him incomprehensibly, his hand

The finger moved again.

Xiang Yanghou said: "Except for the soldiers who attacked Beiya, let's assume for the time being that among the remaining [-] soldiers and horses in Beirong, there will be [-] cavalry, [-] archers, and the rest are infantry and spearmen. Among them, the archers are the most. Being good at guarding towers is also the biggest obstacle we will face. But..."

As he spoke, he fiddled with the sand table, placed the flags of various arms on it, and then began to deduce in detail, personally showing the reason for "there will be no surprises" to everyone.

He listed many situations, but each explanation is extremely concise and easy to understand.

To put it simply, if Beiya really sent troops to disrupt Beirong, and Beirong sent a corresponding number of soldiers and horses to meet the enemy, in terms of the number of remaining troops in Beirong, in fact, regardless of the deployment in the city, the Dayi Dynasty would strike first. Either city is a must-win situation.

Everyone: "..."

In the coach's camp, Gu Jingyuan calmly deduced all possible outcomes, and finally came to such a conclusion.

Faced with this result, all the generals were silent.

...They didn't expect that what seemed to be an extremely complicated situation would end in such a simple way!

"What Hou Ye means is that no matter how the interior is deployed, as long as we are fully prepared, it is actually the same which city to attack first? The reason why we choose the left city is because the terrain of the left city is relatively flat compared with the right city. Easier to break through?" Someone concluded stumbled, the voice still revealing disbelief.

Gu Jingyuan glanced at him appreciatively: "Exactly."

Someone murmured in disbelief: "...Why did I think everything was right when Master Hou demonstrated it, but I find it hard to believe this conclusion?!"

Some people were stunned, and it took a long time to react: "I guess this situation...even the King of Beirong himself could not think of it."

"Okay!" Long Yanzhao affirmed directly with admiration, and at the same time took Gu Jingyuan away from the sand table without any trace.

——Just now everyone was engrossed in listening, and everyone involuntarily gathered around the sand table to listen to Ah Yuan's explanation.

Because Ah Yuan's thoughts were beating too fast, it was easy for people to fail to keep up with his thoughts and ideas. These generals could only listen with all their strength, and gradually the convenience sand table was getting closer and closer.

It's so close that it's almost close to Gu Jingyuan!

Long Yanzhao felt his teeth itch while listening to it, but he couldn't attack it. At this moment, Gu Jingyuan finally finished speaking, he hurriedly pulled him out, and took advantage of the situation: "Do you have any objections to Lord Hou's deduction? No, North Cliff

When the army is in Beirong, it is the day when we attack Zuocheng! "

Because the emperor led Hou Ye back, the others naturally dispersed from the sand table and returned to their positions.

They are still thinking about the various deduction made by Gu Jingyuan just now.

The more I think about it, the more I can't help but admire him again!

If you want to make this kind of deduction, you need to have a strong brain ability.

He must fully understand the combat methods and advantages and disadvantages of various arms on the battlefield, and he must also have a deep understanding of the strength of both the enemy and the enemy, and even the Beiya army.

Only by combining these factors can a basic assumption be obtained, and the subsequent deduction based on this assumption is completely a... time to test the ability to use brains and the degree of use of various tactics.

That is to say, to draw this conclusion, one must not only be extremely smart, but also understand all conventional and unconventional strategic knowledge on the battlefield...

So how did Lord Hou master these?

Is it all through books...?

No matter how surprised everyone was, every word that Gu Jingyuan said just now was very reasonable, and there was no fault at all.

Not only did the generals present not raise any objections, on the contrary, all they were thinking at this moment was——

Their Dayi Wenquxing... is really extraordinary!

"Hahaha! Wonderful, really wonderful." King Guangping stood up first.

While applauding, he looked at Gu Jingyuan, his eyes were full of praise: "I used to hear the emperor say that Lord Hou is extremely smart, but seeing you today, Lord Hou is indeed a master of calculations, he is a rare genius."

Being suddenly praised, Gu Jingyuan still feels embarrassed.He said: "Of course, the inference of the lower official is only based on the strength of the troops. The outcome of the battlefield needs to be combined with the right time, place and people. The lower official is just inference. The rest still needs to be played by the emperor, the prince, and the generals. Strength is what makes it happen.”

As he spoke, he bowed his hands to everyone present.

The attitude is very humble, and the words are very sincere, which invisibly elevates the people in the entire camp.

The emperor looked at him with joy in his eyes.The rest of the people couldn't have imagined that Hou Ye, who had shown his sharpness at the edge of the sand table and had a brilliant tongue just now, could be so humble now, and couldn't help but feel a little fond of him.

The generals who didn't take Xiang Yanghou at all before had completely changed from being astonished that Lord Hou could be martial arts to worshiping with shame.

Zhuo Yan also stroked his beard in satisfaction.

He was afraid and curious about this Lord Hou.

The fear mainly stems from his relationship with the emperor in the court.

The curiosity is that since last year, the emperor has suddenly changed.

As for the root cause, judging from the various information obtained by Zhuo Yan, it seems that it has something to do with Master Xiao Gu's sudden invitation to leave Beijing...

Although the emperor had never mentioned it in front of others, since then, he has become a little more curious about this Xiangyanghou.

Not to mention, in the few days since he brought Mr. Gu back, the emperor has changed his appearance again, he is much more cheerful than before, which further confirms Zhuo Yan's guess.

He has always been curious about what kind of person can influence the emperor so far.

So this curiosity has been preserved to this day.

It wasn't until today that Zhuo Yan finally understood what kind of characteristics this Mr. Gu has, so that the emperor can only rely on him.

only……

Features and characteristics are to be seen.Mr. Gu is indeed alert and flawless.

But such a talented and stunning person appeared on their day... Is this a blessing or a curse?

……

Whether it's a blessing or a curse, at least this time Xiang Yanghou's deduction will not be wrong.

The plan to attack Beirong in the next step was finalized.

Even if the plan to attack Zuocheng first is finalized, as Gu Jingyuan said, there are many variables in the outcome of the battlefield, so there are still many things to prepare for in the future.

For example, if the left and right cities want to support each other, the reinforcements can arrive within a day.

Therefore, when the battle really starts and the city is broken, there is not much time for the Dayi army, and they must be fully prepared.

After Long Yanzhao asked King Guangping for his opinion, he personally ordered to assign all kinds of tasks.

The generals dispersed and went about their own affairs.

Long Yanzhao still remembered that Gu Jingyuan was unwell just now, so he left Gu Jingyuan alone, and ordered someone to bring the health-preserving soup that he ordered earlier.

Gu Jingyuan is thirsty after talking so much today.

He was not polite, and drank the soup spoon by spoon by himself.

The emperor who originally planned to serve Lord Hou with soup: "..."

The emperor still had a lot of work to do. Seeing that Gu Jingyuan had finished drinking the soup, he explained again that he wanted Gu Jingyuan to take a good rest in the camp and get a good night's sleep before leaving to do business with peace of mind.

Gu Jingyuan drove him to do something, and he didn't stay in the coach's tent for too long.

There was nothing he could do in the pre-war preparations, and he didn't want to interfere. After leaving the main tent, Gu Jingyuan walked straight to his own tent in the rear.

On the way, he met last night

The young general who met outside the emperor's tent passed by.

Gu Jingyuan straightened his back and walked forward as before.

But after hesitating, the young general turned around and chased after him.

"Master Hou stay here."

Gu Jingyuan stopped in his tracks and looked puzzled at the young captain who stopped him.

He remembered that this man had just listened to his deduction in the coach's account, thinking that the other party had some questions that he didn't understand, so he couldn't help asking: "What's the matter, general?"

But facing Gu Jingyuan's black and white eyes, the captain suddenly knelt down on his knees and said, "The last general... the last general is here to plead guilty to Lord Hou."

"..."

Upon hearing this, Gu Jingyuan looked at this person again.

He stared intently, his handsome brows were furrowed, and he only heard the captain say: "The last general was once a soldier in General Yang Shao's army. Maybe the Marquis doesn't remember, but the last general said something , I have humiliated Lord Hou... I am here today to plead guilty, and I hope Lord Hou will forgive me!"

"What did you... say?" Gu Jingyuan asked uncertainly.

It's been too long, and it's not that no one has said it behind his back. Gu Jingyuan is not easy to hold grudges, so naturally he won't take it to heart.

If it was a normal time, he would probably let people get up directly, just say a few words about him, and skip this matter directly.

But this person... From the time this person mentioned Yang Jin, a strange feeling rose in his heart, and Gu Jingyuan had to pay attention to it subconsciously.

He didn't actually remember the man.

He has almost a photographic memory...in normal times.

But when he was in Yang Jin's army, he was in a daze for a long time, unable to distinguish reality from dreams, and didn't remember anything...

Gu Jingyuan's fingertips trembled slightly.

The weird feeling became more and more intense, and he couldn't help asking: "What did you say?"

The school lieutenant buried his head deeply: "The last general said... what the last general said at the time was, 'How could the emperor mobilize the army to help you just because of one person, it must be a misunderstanding'...Hou Ye forgive me! "

"..."

Gu Jingyuan froze on the spot.

The fingertips hidden in the sleeves trembled even more, Gu Jingyuan let him speak, but when he heard the other party's first sentence, he was struck by thunder, his peach blossom eyes widened and widened, and he was at a loss.

"At that time..." the captain continued: "At that time, General Mo didn't know you were sitting in the yard, and you heard this...I found out that General Shi Mo knew that he had made a mistake and ran away immediately. Later, I heard that you were sitting in the yard that night Then I fell ill... The last general didn't have the courage to ask you to admit his mistakes. He has been doing this for so many years. Goodbye

Lord Hou is still as magnificent as ever, and his style remains the same as before... The general will be really ashamed at the end. "

"What did you mean by that?" Gu Jingyuan's lips trembled a little.

Suddenly thought of something, his thoughts were pulled back, his eyes moved down, and he landed on the captain.

Gu Jingyuan said: "Yang Jin...was sent by His Majesty."

Not a question.

His words were full of affirmation.

Gu Jingyuan seemed to be expounding a fact.

It's just that the voice is stunned, and no emotion can be heard.
