Daming: At the start of the showdown, Lao Zhu was stunned

Chapter 328

Zhu Su glanced at Zhu Di in surprise, and based on the differences between the current Daming and the historical ones, he managed to analyze what Nahachu wanted to do.

But this fourth brother was able to get the same answer as himself in such a short period of time... It can only be said that he is indeed the only emperor in history who has kept wolves in Xuxu, and his innate sensitivity to the battle situation is beyond compare .

"Since this beast is really intending to attack Ming, then its main force must have entered the customs and pushed to the Yongping area." Zhu Di drew the location of Yongping Mansion on the rough map on the ground with his fingers: "Yongping is located in Shanhaiguan. To the west is the place where our Ming Dynasty hoarded heavy troops. If we want to take down Yongping, we can’t just send a partial division. Naha’s main force needs at least [-] troops to attack the area of ​​Yongping City.”

"In other words, today's Liaodong... is extremely empty!"

Everyone looked at each other.Has Naha sent the main force to besiege Yong Peng?Zhang He frowned, and asked, "It is said that Naha's lair is in the Jinshan area. Could it be that His Royal Highness Yan intends to take advantage of Naha's absence from Liaodong and seize his land in Jinshan?"

"That's a good idea! Old Chang likes it!" Chang Mao laughed. "It happened to be in the heart of that thief bird, and the world was turned upside down!"

"No." It was Zhu Su who spoke.

Everyone was stunned, Zhu Su glanced at Zhu Di, and explained: "We can't attack Jinshan for three reasons."

"First, we are very weak now, but only a thousand people. Even if the main force is not there, there will definitely be more than ten thousand people guarding the Jinshan lair, and we can't move it."

"Second, it is the situation of Jinshan and Shanhaiguan. Jinshan and Shanhaiguan are now two horns. If we go to attack Jinshan, Shanhaiguan will definitely send troops to save it. When the time comes, we will attack from front to back. How can we survive?"

"The third is food and grass... Even if we have soldiers in our hands, in Liaodong, the food and grass have just been burned by Naha. Where can we get the food and grass that can support tens of thousands of soldiers?"

After Zhu Su finished speaking, everyone was silent.Zhang He said softly: "If we still have a boat, then whether it is a way to avoid the enemy's flanking attack or a way to transport the rations, it will be all right."

Zhu Su was also silent.He also knew about this, but it was a pity that the boats that had previously docked at the beaches near Jinzhou were already unusable due to the wind and waves.

Otherwise, they would not have gone through such hardships and wanted to cross Shanhaiguan with one pair of feet.After confirming the location and replenishing supplies, we can continue to take the waterway and return to Daming along the coast, right?
"I can't even enter the Shanhaiguan Pass, and I can't attack the thief's lair, so what should I do? Should I continue to find a mountain nest to hide in?" Zhu Xi said irritably.

"Naha's old lair cannot be traced now, but Shanhaiguan...you can still plot something." Zhu Su stroked his chin.Everyone was stunned, the golden mountain of tens of thousands of people could not be beaten, but the Shanhaiguan with its towering wall could be touched?

"The reason is actually simple." Seeing everyone's surprised eyes, Zhu Su explained with a smile: "Because Jinshan is only a few days away from Shanhaiguan, the two form horns, and they cannot be easily captured."

"But Jinshan is Naha's old lair, and Naha's family property is all here. According to the cautious temperament of the old fox, he must have taken this lair very seriously, and must have ordered the guards not to fight easily."

"If we attack Jinshan, the Shanhaiguan defenders will definitely send troops to attack. But if we attack Shanhaiguan... the Jinshan defenders will stay put!" Zhu Su was extremely determined.

"And after capturing Shanhaiguan, even if we just break out of the siege, we can be considered safe."

"Oh!" Everyone suddenly realized.Ru Taisu stroked his long beard lightly, and asked: "What His Highness Fifth Highness said is true. But His Highness also said just now that we are weak now, and our number is only a thousand or so."

"Even if you add the defenders under Qianhu here, there are only a few thousand. How can we attack the Shanhai Xiongguan?"

"Therefore, we have to find a way first to gather a suitable army." Zhu Su stood up.Turning to Shao Biao who was standing in the corner, he said, "Captain Shao!"

"Yes." Shao Biao hurriedly responded.

"According to the meaning of Qianhu here just now, our Daming defenders in Liaodong were not completely wiped out, but were scattered by Naha's Yuan army."

"If we can find their traces and gather them together, I think it will be a useful soldier. Lieutenant Shao, you are the most proficient in the terrain here. Can you entrust this task to you?"

When Shao Biao heard about it, his face became serious.She clasped her fists and said, "Your Highness wishes, but I dare not resign! I can only do my best."

"Very good." Zhu Su nodded.Jin Yiwei has great supernatural powers, and there must be some of them in the Liaodong Army.It couldn't be more appropriate to entrust this task to Shao Biao.

"Mr. Dai, many of the defenders here have been seriously injured. If the emergency response is handled properly, there may be some more soldiers who can fight."

"Can I trouble you to go to the wounded barracks to help with treatment?"

"This is the job of a doctor." Dai Sigong bowed, then picked up the medicine box and went out.

Zhu Su took the overall plan and arranged tasks for everyone. By the way, he took over the command of Fengsui here very naturally.Although Wu Zhou was uneasy, but he was injured and his energy was weak, and his status was far inferior to Zhu Su and others, so he could only bend down and obey orders.In a blink of an eye, there were only two brothers from the Zhu family left in Fengsui Fort, and even Zhu Xi was assigned a task by Zhu Su, asking the second brother to go with Chang Mao to boost the morale of the soldiers.

"Old Five." Seeing that there was no one around, Zhu Difang said: "You want to take Shanhaiguan, but you still want to help my Northern Army of the Ming Dynasty. Let's see if you can take advantage of the situation and take Nanaha out?"

"How did fourth brother find out?" Zhu Su was taken aback for a moment, then asked with a smile.

"What's so difficult about it?" Zhu Di squatted down beside Zhu Su.Pointing to the Shanhai Pass drawn on the map on the ground, he said: "This Shanhai Pass is the escape route for us, but for Naha, it is the necessary escape route?"

"It is precisely because of the Shanhaiguan that was taken down that Naha felt that the back road was guaranteed, so he thought of taking risks and trying my Ming's catty while my army was taking Yunnan."

"If Shanhaiguan is lost, Naha's main force will be isolated from his lair, so what if he has already captured the entire territory of Liaodong? Even if there are hundreds of thousands of his lone army, he will have to be slowly swallowed by me, Ming. .”

"It's just that Shanhaiguan is a dangerous place. Even if the remnants of Dingliao Guard are gathered together, it may be difficult to take it by force... Fifth, do you have some plan to succeed?"
