Chapter 888 Yan Yan's arrangement, step by step ([-])

"As expected of General Li Yan, you are truly a speedy soldier..." After hearing Li Yan's explanation, all the generals were also briefed again and again.

This time stop camping at Bailong Lake.

Seemingly delaying the march.

But in fact, it has greatly improved the march.

Li Yan said: "If we continue to march, according to our marching speed, within two hours, more than ten miles will not be a problem.

But you can imagine, if we camped according to what I waited for in the past.

We will inevitably lose touch with the Chinese army. In addition, there are more than ten miles of ditches ahead, and the road will be quite steep.

Although we can find a place to camp, please don't forget that there are many eyes watching us around us. "

How could Li Yan not understand what Yan Yan was thinking now.

They marched faster.

It seems to be speeding up, but in fact it is slowing down the march. Li Yan thinks about it carefully.

If they marched as usual, they would definitely be able to advance a lot of distance, at least ten miles away.

But for the sake of ten miles, they have to bear possible attacks and cut off the contact with the Chinese army... Compared with the journey of only ten miles, there are almost no benefits, but a lot of disadvantages.

So why should they worry.

On the contrary, camping on the spot in the area of ​​Bailong Lake can bring them a lot of benefits. It can be said that this time not only opened the eyes of Li Yan and his troops, but also gave the soldiers a rest.

For the soldiers, of course, there is nothing more joyful.

After all, no one would dislike the increase in rest time.

At first, the soldiers thought they were resting now and might be marching at night.

But under the questioning of several groups of soldiers, Li Yan ordered the whole army to go down, saying that they would rest at the Bailonghu barracks today, and not march at night and march tomorrow.

"That's really true! That's great!" The soldiers should not be too happy, and some soldiers even took advantage of this time to go to Bailong Lake to catch fish and improve their food.

Li Yan saw soldiers going down the river to catch fish, and saw many soldiers ready to move.

Immediately, the order was sent down, and only some soldiers could be sent to the river to catch fish.

Looking at the vast Bailong River, Li Yan had a new idea in his heart: "The Bailong River is so vast, if we want to cross the river and pass the Baishui Pass, we must build a pontoon bridge.

Mengda's reinforcements were attacked because of the pontoon bridge, wasn't it precisely because they were attacked by Zhang Lujun when they built the pontoon bridge?
If I can prepare more warships and arrive at the Baishuiguan area, will the construction of the pontoon bridge be much faster? "

After having an idea, Li Yan recruited his subordinates to discuss with them.

Li Yan was the first to ask the lieutenant general: "Does our army have the ability to manufacture pontoon bridges and warships?"

Li Yan's subordinate general said: "The general has no problem with our army building pontoon bridges. Our army has many skilled craftsmen with the battalion, just to build pontoon bridges and build warships...

But the question is, what should I do after I build the warship?
Right now, although we are halfway through the journey, it is not easy to go upstream to reach Baishui Pass. "

The lieutenant general's question made Li Yan nod his head: "This is a problem. With the northwest wind, it is obviously unrealistic for the finished warship to go upstream against the wind along the Bailong River."

Some generals said: "General, since there is no problem with the warship, the Bailongjiang waterway is also difficult to pass, so why don't I wait for the waterway?"

"Don't go by water?" The general's thoughts reminded Li Yan.

Li Yan couldn't help but nodded and said: "This is not going by water, you are going by land?"

"Extremely, if we go by land and the waterway is impassable, we can order people to carry the finished warboat to Baishuiguan. Anyway, we can go left and right. It is also feasible to carry some warboats."

For a while, Li Yan's subordinates put forward their ideas.

Li Yan thought for a while and said: "Warboats can be controlled, land routes can also be passed, and manpower can also be carried forward, but you have to think about it, such methods are feasible on good roads.

As we march, you also know that it is not peaceful. There are continuous mountains, dense forests, nine bends and eighteen bends, and sometimes we have to walk through dangerous and narrow plank roads.

A warship that can be made into a pontoon bridge must be at least nine meters long, but how can a plank road that is only a few people wide pass?

Even if it can pass, what if the number of warships made by us is too large, if the marching speed is delayed? "

All of a sudden Li Yan put forward many ideas, which confused all the generals.

Seeing that his subordinates were like this, Li Yan couldn't help but shook his head and said: "Although I raised this issue, it is up to everyone to solve it.

Once this is done, I will not treat you badly. "

After deliberation, the last group of generals felt that it was very feasible.

In the end, the deputy general under Li Yan combined the ideas of many people and said the final solution: "General, I don't think the problem is too big this time.

On ordinary and gentle roads, we can rely on manpower to transfer. According to our manufacturing speed, the number of overnight warships is only a hundred, which is not too much, so the march will not be delayed.

When encountering rough terrain, plank roads and gorges, where the warship cannot accommodate passage, we can also put the warboat into the water and let the tracker pull the warboat upstream.

Wait until the terrain is flat before taking the land route. As long as we send scouts to prepare in advance, where to enter the water and when to go ashore, as long as the allocation is reasonable, we will naturally not delay any exercises.

General, what do you think? "

Li Yan was silent for a long time, and immediately nodded with emotion: "Okay!"

"I didn't expect that you would come up with a solution in just a quarter of an hour. I think even General Yan Yan would admire you for waiting."

In fact, Li Yan also had a temporary idea. He didn't think that he had an unrealistic idea.

It was solved by his subordinates.

"It's interesting. It seems that we can listen to the ideas of our subordinates in the future." Although there are no three cobblers who can match Zhuge Liang's words, Li Yan has caught something.

Consolidate opinions.

After setting up the charter,
Li Yan immediately conveyed this opinion to Yan Yan.

"pontoon?"

"Building a warship?"

"Take a flat road, or a rough road?" Yan Yan was very surprised after knowing Li Yan's thoughts. After reading the complete plan, Yan Yan was very emotional: "I didn't expect Li Yan to think about the pontoon bridge." , and this plan is really feasible.

The advantages and disadvantages of all kinds of executable and non-executable are all upside down.

So and so, really surprised me?Could it be that he really got the hang of it? "

The feasibility of Li Yan's plan reminded Yan Yan of the failure of Meng Da to support Baishuiguan.

Yan Yan studied for a long time.

It can be described as day and night.

Regarding Meng Da's failure, Yan Yan felt that it was mainly due to his appearance on the floating bridge. He felt that the reason for Meng Da's defeat was largely because he was not cautious enough and was too aggressive.

In addition, the biggest problem is because of the pontoon.
