The Three Kingdoms

"If you can't kill them cleanly, you have to kill a group to suppress them. I don't believe that they are not afraid. They are just a group of people. Could it be that their will is stronger than that of soldiers on the battlefield!" Jia Xu replied.

"Kong Ming, what do you think of Wenhe's strategy?"

Sun Quan squinted at Zhuge Liang, who was sitting on the seat with his eyes closed, and asked suddenly.

Hearing this, Zhuge Liang opened his eyes, looked at Sun Quan, then looked at Jia Xu, and then said: "Commander Jia's idea is good, he can indeed stabilize the territory we occupy in a short period of time, and let the people dare to be angry Don't dare to say, let them submit to our butcher's knife, but after a long time of suppression, there is something wrong after all. After all, the Thracian province is only a part, and we don't have so many soldiers to guard it. Once we attack in the future In the hinterland of Rome, if we mobilize the main force to move forward, then the people in this province will definitely continue to resist!"

"I don't know what kind of clever plan Chief Zhuge has, which can solve the current difficulties of our army!"

Hearing this, Jia Xu was not angry. He himself is a very smart military adviser, and he also knew that his suggestions could only treat the symptoms but not the root cause, so he asked modestly.

"Miao can't count, but I have an idea!"

Zhuge Liang smiled slightly, and faced Jia Xu's question with a smile, and then replied: "There is a saying in the art of war, the siege of the city is the bottom, and the heart is the top. I think that if these people want to surrender, the only way is to destroy their beliefs!"

"Destroy their faith?"

When the generals heard the words, they peeped at each other, some of them could not understand.

"Kong Ming meant to defeat their main force, leave them helpless, and let them understand that only by surrendering can they survive!" Pang Tong added.

After Pan Feng heard this, there was a trace of displeasure on Fang Fangzheng's face. He looked at Zhuge Liang and said, "Kong Ming, if you said this, it means you didn't say it. It's not like you don't know these days. We have been looking for their main force all the time." , but their main forces simply avoided fighting against us. Renault City and Willie City, these two cities closest to the province of Thrace, were guarded by Roman troops, but they immediately withdrew their troops in the face of our attack. Don't even fight face to face, isn't this avoiding and not fighting?"

"Don't worry, Commander-in-Chief, wait until I finish speaking!"

Zhuge Liang said softly.

"Okay, tell me!" Pan Feng calmed down and said coldly.

"According to our spies from Jin Yiwei, the Roman main force led by Marshal Chaks of the Roman Empire has actually entered the province of Thrace, and has even joined the Crusaders. It is initially estimated that there are four main armies, no less than 80 Ten Thousand Forces!"

Zhuge Liang carefully analyzed the battle situation: "In terms of military strength, they are not inferior to us. We all thought it would be a bloody battle, but in the end they used a relatively insignificant tactic. First, avoid fighting and second. , All the people are soldiers, and their purpose is to consume the morale and combat effectiveness of our army!"

"They are planning to lose a Thracian province to stop our attack!"

"But I don't think how long they can hold their breath with an army of nearly a million!"

Zhuge Liang stood up, spread out a strategic map, and presented the strategic map in front of everyone, saying: "Attack, we must attack, and it is not difficult to find their main force to attack. We can go directly north without occupying a space." Therefore, if the main force drives straight in, penetrating north and south, it will definitely show them their true colors, and just give them a bait, and they will definitely make them attack!"

"Bait?" Pan Feng narrowed his long and narrow eyes when he heard the words, looked at Zhuge Liang, and asked, "What bait?"

"Reporting to the commander-in-chief, in our army, there is only one person who can fool the commander of the Roman army, let him attack at any cost, and let him dare to fight us head-on!"

Zhuge Liang was silent for a while, his eyes flickered, he didn't dare to look directly at Sun Quan, and said quietly.

"Zhuge Kongming, do you want to die?"

Pang Tong stood up suddenly, glaring angrily, and slapped his palm on the desk with his fingers raised up, he almost didn't know that Zhuge Liang's nose was scolded.

"What's going on here?"

When the generals saw the confrontation between the two, they were suddenly a little unclear about the situation.

"The Roman barbarians hate me more than your majesty. Only when your majesty's deeds are exposed and you are alone and without reinforcements can you let Rome, which is about to abandon the entire Thrace province and hold us back, and is unwilling to fight us head-on The army chooses to attack!"

Jia Xu glanced at Sun Quan's calm expression, then spoke, and explained Zhuge Liang's thoughts to the generals in the conference hall: "To put it simply, it is to use His Majesty's identity as a bait to lure them to attack!"

"Damn things!"

"Zhuge Kongming, you are so bold, I will kill you!"

"Use Your Majesty, you Zhuge Liang are really daring, drag it out and hack it!"

When the generals heard this, they glared at Zhuge Liang angrily.

Facing the scolding by the generals, Zhuge Liang's attitude was neither humble nor overbearing. He remained silent, did not refute, and did not speak passionately about how foolproof his strategy was. He was just waiting, waiting for Sun Quan's decision.

For him, the opposition of all the people here is not as good as Sun Quan's approval.

"Quiet!"

Sun Quan stretched out his hand and pressed down on the void, and the generals calmed down, but their eyes were still staring at Zhuge Liang with a gnawing light.

"Kong Ming, am I so hated by others?" He asked a little playfully.

"How much the Romans hated His Majesty, the last general stopped talking. Severus died at the hands of His Majesty, and was still under the attention of the Roman army, so they must have wanted to kill His Majesty from the bottom of their hearts. Back then, in the Greek battle Among them, don’t they just want to go to your majesty’s death, and I think Roman generals also understand the art of war, and they also know the way to capture thieves and kings. Naturally, they also know that the best way to stop us is to kill us. His Majesty!"

Zhuge Liang stood up, bowed his hands to Sun Quan, and said: "So once they think that they may kill His Majesty, then they will choose to attack at any cost, because they think it is worth it!"

"If I take the initiative to attack, you are almost certain that I will be safe!" Sun Quan was a little moved.

"Ten percent!"

Zhuge Liang was unquestionable: "The last general will never dare to gamble with His Majesty's life, all he needs is His Majesty's name!"

"Your Majesty, no!"

Pang Tong objected: "The success or failure of any battle is not as important as your majesty's life. If we can't conquer the Roman Empire in one year, it will take three years, and if we can't defeat it in three years, it will take ten years. We can take it slowly, but we must not let your majesty take risks." !"

"Your Majesty, the general agrees that what Staff Pang said is true. Your Majesty is a man of gold, how can he go to danger."

"The mere Roman army, how can you let His Majesty be the bait!"

"This is an insult to His Majesty!"

The generals objected again and again.

Sun Quan fell silent, looked at Zhuge Liang, and looked at the reactions of the generals. He tapped his right index finger on the desk, his eyes flickered, and he was trying hard to think about the feasibility of this plan.

"Zhuge Kongming, give me a reason!" After a while, Sun Quan said indifferently.

"Your Majesty, the Romans have disrupted our deployment with this strategy of avoiding war and all the people are soldiers. If the situation continues to be stalemate, it will be unfavorable to our Wu army after all, and the situation will not be opened for a long time. The imperial court will also have confidence in this battle. Also, with winter coming in October, we simply don't have more time to plan other viable strategies!"

Zhuge Liang let out a long sigh, if he hadn't been cornered, he would really not be willing to use such a risky tactic to attack.

"You are right!"

Sun Quan thought for a while, but he thought Zhuge Liang was right. He looked down at Zhuge Liang and asked, "If I put my life in your hands, would you dare to issue a military order?"

"Can!"

Zhuge Liang gritted his teeth: "If the last general can't break the main force of Rome, I would like to be dealt with by military law!"

"it is good!"
