    The army led by Wang Qi did not stop. After passing through Chencang County, they continued to Yumi County.  When they passed through Yumi County and arrived at Qian County, the westernmost border of the Sili region, the army was temporarily stationed to rest and recover its combat effectiveness.

    The army adjusted for a day, and the forward sentry sent back the news that there were no Wei troops stationed along the way to Longxian, and all the Wei troops had concentrated on the Longguan line, so Wang Qi continued to advance.

    In fact, this is Cao Xuan of Wei State, and there are no weapons like cannons yet.  If Wei's army were all equipped with cannons, it would be easier to defend the place and the fighting would be more brutal. They would have to seize high ground along the way and block attacks at every turn.

    It is true that Wei is weaker and the situation is relatively good for Wang Qi.

    The army marched towards Longguan.

    When we were less than ten miles away from Longguan, we found an open place to station ourselves.  There are water sources nearby and woods in the distance, which can provide firewood and water sources to ensure the stability of the military camp.

    The troops are stationed and resting in place.

    Wang Qi did not stop and took Zhou Zishan and Zhuge Feng towards Longguan, preparing to take a closer look at the situation and see what the defense was like near Longguan.

    The group of people approached Longguan and looked at a hillside from a distance.

    Although the distance is far, you can see the situation clearly.

    Wang Qi looked at the majestic and majestic Longguan. He made a rough estimate. Longguan was at least more than ten feet high, and Longguan was built between two rugged and steep mountains. To go to Xiliang, Longguan must be broken.  close.

    In addition, there are stretches of mountains outside Longguan.  The hillside is not particularly steep, but soldiers can be arranged to guard the mountain.  Once Wang Qi's army wants to attack Longguan, they will face a pincer attack from Longguan and the ambushes on the left and right sides of Longguan.

    This is the basic situation at the moment.

    After Wang Qi gained insight into the basic situation, he thought about it and said, "Brother, Zishan, you have seen the general situation and you know it well. What can you do to attack Longguan this time?"

    Zhuge Feng frowned slightly and thought for a long time before saying: "Long Pass itself is difficult to attack, and there are dense woods on the mountains on both sides, so there must be an ambush above."

    "The range of a rifle is about two to three hundred. Wei soldiers are equipped with rifles and seize the high ground, forming a firepower point to suppress the attack of our soldiers."

    "In the past, fighting in Qi State was easy. Our Grand Master quickly moved forward and broke through directly. But now, unless we use the lives of soldiers to pile up and kill them with the human sea tactic, otherwise, it is extremely difficult.  .¡±

    After Wang Qi heard this, he agreed with Zhuge Feng¡¯s analysis.

    On the current battlefield, the role of the Grand Master is there, but it has been weakened too much.

    After all, the Grand Master is also afraid of bullets.

    Wang Qi thought for a while and said: "It is not cost-effective to attack Long County with the human wave tactic. The soldiers of our Qi State are all brave warriors who have fought in the south and north, and have received countless training in the army. They have been honing their skills for several years.  That¡¯s how we are now.¡±

    "If we use the human sea tactic to accumulate, even if we win this battle, we will lose a large number of soldiers. When Cao Xuan retreated and reached Long County, he blocked us again. We were blocked one after another, and the losses would continue to be huge.  .¡±

    "One group of people will die today and another will die tomorrow. If this goes on for a long time, all the soldiers will be sacrificed. Therefore, the human sea tactic is extremely inappropriate and I don't agree with it."

    "Our current war should be result-oriented and only focus on the final result. However, at any time, we still need to use our brains, pay attention to tactics, and pay attention to methods."

    Wang Qi talked eloquently and said: "Strategy and tactics are the basic way of thinking that military generals should have. Fighting the enemy bravely, fighting to the death to win, and thinking about tactics are not contradictory."

    Zhuge Feng said: "I will remember your Majesty's instructions. I will announce them when making arrangements in the army."

    Zhou Zishan said: "What your Majesty expounded is also a problem exposed by our Ministry of Political Affairs and Industry. Today's personnel in the Ministry of Political Affairs and military advisers at all levels are far from sufficient to teach and explain the theoretical system of war. On this point, I will  Strengthened training.¡±

    Wang Qidao: "It's good to understand. These things will be pushed forward slowly."

    After a pause, Wang Qi said: "Let's get back to the subject, let's talk about this war. Cao Xuan has deployed strong defenses at Long Pass and on both sides of Long Pass. How can we break through?"

    Zhuge Feng and Zhou Zishan looked at each other, with a solemn look in their eyes.

    The way war is fought has changed.

    Many previous methods cannot be implemented.  soThe two of them were thinking now, and there was some hesitation in their hearts. For a while, they couldn't think of any solution.

    Seeing that the two of them had nothing to do for the time being, Wang Qi said, "Let's go back to the camp first. After returning to the camp, we will think about it carefully."

    "yes!"

    Zhuge Feng and Zhou Zishan answered in unison.

    The group of people walked back.

    By the time we returned to the camp, night had fallen and it was getting dark.

    In the camp, the smell of rice lingers.

    When the army is marching in a hurry, the lunch meal is simple dry food.  When we stopped at night, we had plenty of food, including rice, meat, and soup, to ensure that the soldiers were full.

    Wang Qi, Zhuge Feng and Zhou Zishan ate together in the camp, discussing the current situation while eating.

    When Zhou Zishan was eating, he suddenly said: "Your Majesty, I have thought of a way."

    Wang Qidao: "What can we do?"

    A flash of light flashed across Zhou Zishan's eyes, and he said: "I chose a stupid way to dig a tunnel far outside Longguan, directly under the Longguan city tower, and bombarded the city tower with cannons, so that Cao Xuan had no time to pay attention to the situation in the tunnel."

    "As long as the tunnel is dug and enough gunpowder is buried inside, once it is ignited, the entire underground of Longguan will definitely be wiped out. The towers of Longguan will completely collapse."

    "Cao Xuan lost the defensive level. In panic, we launched an attack directly. We defeated Cao Xuan's defense in one go. The most important thing is that without artillery on Cao Xuan's side, he could not bomb the underground outside the city and could not stop us from digging tunnels."

    "Once we dig through it and Longguan collapses, we will win."

    Zhou Zishan said: "Of course this is a stupid method, but I think it can work."

    After Wang Qi heard this, he put down his job and thought carefully.

    "Brother, what do you think?"

    Wang Qi looked at Zhuge Feng again and asked.

    Zhuge Feng said: "Theoretically, there is no problem. It's just that the specific operation is more troublesome. When there is no other way, this is the best choice."

    Zhou Zishan continued: "Actually, this is the reason why there is no bunker. If the tower outside the city has an open area like the city gate, we can use artillery fire to suppress the firepower of all parties and continuously transport gunpowder to blow it up.  Longguan.¡±

    "The problem is that there is a bare area outside the city, and the gate of Longguan is strong. In addition, if the soldiers transport gunpowder and leave it outside the city, if they are hit or hit by stray bullets, they not only fail to blow up the enemy, but actually blow up  ourselves."

    "I still think it is more appropriate to take a stupid approach. After all, in this battle, we cannot place all our hopes on Zhu Yuanshan and Fei Xiuhu."

    Wang Qi made the decision: "That's it, we will start the attack tomorrow. However, considering that when digging the tunnel, a large amount of soil may be produced, we will bomb it first tomorrow and move the camp forward a certain distance to shorten the distance from Longguan  . The excavation site starts from the camp. In this way, even if a large amount of soil is produced, it will not be discovered. This matter requires a sufficiently professional person to be responsible, and must not be careless. Otherwise, if you are not careful, then  We hurt ourselves.¡±

    Zhou Zishan said: "With soldiers like this in the army, there will be no problems."

    Zhuge Feng promised: "I promise to complete the task."

    Wang Qi, Zhou Zishan and Zhuge Feng agreed on a detailed plan and continued to eat.

    In the evening, we all go to bed early.

    Early the next morning, the army set off and went directly to the outside of Longguan, about a thousand steps away.

    Mortars were quickly set up one by one.

    This is the distance that the latest mortars can shoot, and they can aim in a general direction for bombing.  Of course, all artillerymen are specially trained and have actual combat capabilities.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
