"Half a year, I'm afraid the daylily will be cold in half a year!" Leng Zhuo was obviously a little dissatisfied with Sun Wu's answer. You should know that in order to enter Shu, Chuzhou started to prepare a few years ago.

Although the process of entering Shuzhou was repeatedly dragged back due to the excavation of Longshan Road, the Military Affairs Office did not have any other plans. Although it was necessary to go upstream from the Tianhe River and enter Shu, it would take a rush to go through the Tianhe River. Once the Holy Church explored it upstream and did some tricks in the upstream, it would discipline the fleet entering Shu to drink a pot.

However, it would be impossible to dispatch a small fleet to cover up the enemy's eyes and seize a place to enter Shu first. Although there will be a fierce battle after this, there will be no problem in forcibly entering Shu, but the loss may be greatly increased.

"Your Majesty, if you want to use a large army to enter Shu immediately, it is not that you can't put together troops. But now entering Shu now will have more disadvantages than benefits. But when the first half of the year, the situation will be very different!" Sun Wu obviously saw Leng Zhuo's eagerness and immediately reported.

"Oh?" Leng Zhuo heard this, but wanted to see what the members of the Military Affairs Office were doing. You must know that the military personnel of the Military Affairs Office were not comparable to those of him.

"Your Majesty, the land of Shuchuan, the eight inner palaces and the eight outer palaces are surrounded by mountains. There is the Jiange Mountains in the northeast, Kunlun in the northwest, and the plateau in the west, and these 100,000 mountains and rivers in the south. Among the sixteen inner palaces, the eight inner palaces are almost all on the plains alluvial from the extremely tributaries of the Tianhe River!"

"It can be said that the inner eight prefectures are also the most fertile place in Shu. Xichuan Prefecture is only one of the outer eight prefectures. It belongs to the Jiange Mountains and the Kunlun Mountains. Although the south connects the inner eight prefectures, there are Jinsha Rivers and Tianhe Rivers blocking it. Of course, these two rivers cannot stop the Tang army's pace!"

"And it is very likely that within three months, the Kanding Prefecture in the eastern part of Jinshachuan and the south of the Kangding Prefecture are likely to fall quickly, because according to our information, only tens of thousands of troops were stationed in the local legions in Shu. The paper tiger of the local legions in Shu had been exposed when the Holy Sect entered Shu, so with these tens of thousands of troops, the Tang army could not be stopped at all!"

"However, the troops in Shu are not all so bad. Now the elite troops of the border army that support the overall situation are all gathered in Yunluochuan. The two tributaries of the Tianhe River in Guihua River are stalemate with the Holy Sect Army. On this line, there are 300,000 elite troops in Shu. Moreover, this army has been constantly tempered in recent years, but it has been the elite troops who have pioneered the edge!"

"Now the Holy Sect has taken half of the land on the east side of Guihuachuan. Once Jinshachuan is taken by the Tang army, half of the land and Guilin Palace will face an east-west attack. This land will not be defended. The King of Shu will definitely see this, so he will definitely transfer the troops of Jinsha Palace and Guilin Palace to the south, Shuchuan Palace. With the natural danger of Tianhe, he will protect the three lands southwest of the inner eight prefectures!"

"And against the Tang Dynasty is not the matter of the Shu King's family, and the Holy Sect cannot be viewed on the wall. Last time, under Zhuque City, Chuzhou, the Holy Sect and the Tang Army joined forces to attack Zhuque City, but now they will not be together. Because the Holy Sect will definitely be afraid of the Tang army! Even more so than the Shu army that had been fighting for many years, then, the Shu army and the Holy Sect Army will unite to fight against the Tang army!"

"The chaos of the eight inner palaces is certain, and among the eight outer palaces, there are only two in the north and two in the west. There are four in the south, and the area is swaying. The four inscriptions are already wider than the eight insular palaces, but the dispute between the eight insular palaces still cannot affect the four southern palaces, so I took advantage of the fight in the north and did not pay attention to it. My great Chu can step up the arrangements in the four southern palaces!"

"With the help of the Wolf-haired chieftains, we will lure them for profit and power them for troops, integrate the chieftains of these four prefectures as soon as possible, and speed up the garrison and gathering of food, grass and weapons. At that time, we will not only have elite imperial guards to enter Shu, but also arm a large number of chieftain barbarians. If they do not enter Sichuan, they will use thunder and thunder to sweep across the eight inner palaces, and decide on Shu in one battle!"

Leng Zhuo heard this and naturally understood what Sun Wu said, but the problem was that these were based on speculation: "Sun Junji, what you said were all built under ideal circumstances. At the beginning, we thought that the Tang army could not take down Jiange in a short time, and could not even go south from Jiange. But now the Tang army not only took down Jiange, but also rolled southwards in large groups. This kind of accident may happen at any time!"

"Will the King of Shu be abandoned by the Jinsha Prefecture and Guilin Prefecture? And will the Holy Sect join forces with the Shu army to fight against the Tang army? Although the Shu king army is an elite, can it regain its foothold in the Tang army? These are all variables. If an accident occurs, the Tang army will have a huge advantage in Shu. When we delay entering Shu for half a year, how can we compete with the Tang army that has already taken root in Shu!"

"Your Majesty said very much. All the above mentioned are the best situations. Of course, the Military Affairs Office also considered the worst situation, but even the worst situation is still beneficial to our Great Chu. Perhaps, the King of Shu will be defeated, the Shu army will be defeated and the city will be lost. However, even if the Tang army occupied several prefectures in the western Shu, they will exhaust their energy, and it will not be possible to gain a full foothold within half a year!"

"At that time, even if the Holy Sect, which temporarily sits on the mountain and watches the tiger fight and reaches certain agreements with the Tang army, will this opportunity be missed? The Holy Sect country is not all short-sighted. If two tigers fight, one will be injured. The Tang army fought for half a year, and the soldiers were physically and mentally exhausted. Moreover, the climate in Shu is very different from other states, with warm and humid, dense forests, and many poisonous mosquitoes and insects. At the beginning, the Holy Sect army suffered a great loss in Shu, and even a large number of patients appeared in the army. The Shu army won several key victories, which made Shu two points!"

"The Tang army is coming in a hurry. Although it is strong, its potential is insufficient. Now General Lu and Jia Junji have returned to Yongzhou. Although Jiange Road is under the hands of the Tang army, Yongzhou is vast and sparsely populated, and it is not easy to station troops. With General Lu and Jia Junji's ability, the Tang army wants to obtain a steady stream of resources from Shu and send them to Zhongzhou, which is not that easy! Even if you have to worry about the dangers of the retreat at any time!"

"Only one sword pavilion, although it is a dangerous pass, it is almost impossible for General Lu to go south after being strangled by Tang. But why do we need General Lu to go south? As long as we cut off the Jiange Pass, the Tang Dynasty's plan to occupy Shuchuan will be half of it. Unless they walk on the Jiange Mountain Road, it is just a drop in the bucket. There is also a dangerous pass from the Tianhe River Waterway. However, it is the world of our Xuanwu Water Army. It is even more impossible for the Tang army to use Tianhe to carry resources into Zhongzhou!"

"Yes!" Sun Wu said this, Leng Zhuo immediately slapped his thigh. He was confused by the authorities. The Sixteen Palaces of Shuchuan are just a basin. Although there are a few gaps, the gap is not big. The Tang army occupied Jiange Pass. It occupied an entrance. With this Jiange, Lu Bu's troops in Yongzhou could not go south. The Tang army would not give them any chance to retake it. But the question is, is it necessary for the Great Chu to take down Jiange Pass?

No, what Da Chu wants is Shuzhou, and Jiange is sealed. Does this have anything to do with Da Chu? Perhaps when Da Chu controls a wider territory or even sets up Jiuzhou, the Jiange will be blocked and will cause some trouble. However, at that time, it will be impossible to use a lot of manpower. Building a tunnel in the mountains is to take a few years, spend some manpower and material resources. At that time, Leng Zhuo is afraid that he will not have time to unify the world.

It seems that the Tang army wanted to take Shuzhou, enrich itself, and compete for the world, but the abacus was rumbling, but there was a big loophole, that is, the Tang Dynasty would never have imagined that Leng Zhuo had more than 20,000 elite troops in Yongzhou. It can be said that this is a key, a key to victory.

It is not easy to want a complete Jiange, but it is really easy to destroy Jiange. Let Lu Bu walk around in front of Jiange Pass and show his strength with all his might. The Jiange Pass can be blocked for a year and a half, haha. Thinking of this, Leng Zhuo couldn't help laughing.

Without Jiange, the 200,000 Tang troops would be rootless Ping. Even if the resources in Shu were enough to support these Tang troops, so what? Without subsequent troops and horses, the resources could not be transported out. This Tang army would fall into a big trap.

On the other hand, after the opening of Longshan Road in Dachu, this is a Tongtai Avenue. The continuous soldiers and horses can enter Shu from here. Once the chieftains of the four prefectures are integrated, they can obtain 200,000 chieftains and barbarians out of thin air. At that time, it will be no difficult to suddenly break out and sweep across the south of the Tianhe River.

Judging from this, it may not be impossible to wait for half a year.

Seeing that Leng Zhuo was already a little moved, Sun Wu said further: "And we have invested a lot of manpower and material resources in Shu in the past two years. Whether it is Shu Prince Mansion or the Holy Church, there are our people in China, and some people can even influence the decisions of the two. Although it cannot be said that it is 100% sure that the Shu army and the Holy Church act according to our intentions, even if there is any accident, Shuzhou cannot escape from the palm of my Great Chu!"

Leng Zhuo nodded and said, "Well, it seems that the Military Affairs Office has already had a comprehensive strategy for the matter of Shuzhou. Then follow the Military Affairs Office's ideas. By the way, what's going on in Qingzhou? The Tang army clearly made a fuss to attack the west this time, intending to get us involved in the Qingzhou war and have no time to Shuzhou! This action is not small!"

"The Tang army was indeed fighting, but the Tianlong in the north was lukewarm, but most of the Tang army's kindness was left to the east. The Xuanwu Legion had sent two divisions into Heze Prefecture to disrupt the rear of the Tang army and cooperated with General Zhao to defend Heze Prefecture. On the Huai River, there were Zhang Liao and Zhang Fei and two generals Zhang. The Tianlong Huai River Legion, which is currently on the Huai River, fought for so long, but there was not much success!"

"Although the main army of the Tianlong Empire is gathering towards Qubu Mansion, it obviously has no intention of continuing to move south. As the first snowfall in the north has fallen, it is estimated that the Tianlong Army will not make any major moves this winter!"

"Oh, the Tianlong Empire's reaction was too slow. It was so slow, but it was a bit unexpected!" Leng Zhuo did not expect that the Tianlong Empire, which was double-stimulated, would be so slow, but this was a good thing for Da Chu.

Sun Wu smiled and said, "It's not that the Tianlong Empire is not too slow, but that it's not too fast to get fast. Most of the main forces of the Tianlong Empire are stationed in Youzhou and dare not move lightly. After all, several fortresses in the north are heavily locked in the hands of the Hu people, and the Tang army is on the west and south. The Tianlong Empire finally took back most of the Youzhou, so he dared not take risks!"

"Most of the troops who have gone south now are recruited in the past two or three years. They look quite good, but their combat effectiveness is much less powerful. Moreover, the interests on the Huai River front line are complicated. In order to occupy the place and reduce the pressure, Situ Hao allowed himself to build a private army here, but he did not expect that these local rich people are rich. In just three or four years, they formed two Huai River legions, which is even more than enough. Now, along the Huai River front line, there are many soldiers, and they are all under the imperial flag. Now, just coordinating these troops is enough to have a headache in the Tianlong Empire! Before this, there is almost no need to expect to go south!"
