Reborn in the Water Margin as emperor, built tanks to level the world

As long as those common people dare to say a word "no" from their mouths.

The lightest one would be to curse him out loud, while the worst torment would be to make the person disappear on the spot.

Suddenly, the people in villages and towns within thirty miles of Shuibo Liangshan were deeply resented.

But Tong Guan, as the commander-in-chief of the imperial army, turned a blind eye to these.

He just kept repeating to the generals in his handsome tent:

Two thousand ships must be commandeered from the people within three days.

It will be used to carry troops in future wars.

If any general does not perform well, he will be severely punished.

Under this heavy pressure, the generals seized the boats from the people and became even more ruthless.

Such actions of Tong Guan's army soon reached the ears of Chao Gai and others.

Regarding this, in the hearts of Chao Gai and others, they felt both hatred and helplessness.

In the Juyi Hall at this time.

There were only a few leaders such as Chao Gai, Wu Yong, Gongsun Sheng, and Yang Zhi.

Although Wu Yong had already had a strategy to defeat the enemy a long time ago.

But in terms of details, it still needs to be perfected so that it can be foolproof in the face of enemy battle.

Wu Yong's face was as dark as water. After pondering for a long time, he looked at Yang Zhi sitting beside him and slowly said:

"Brother Yang Zhi has been familiar with military books and strategies since he was a child, and he has many strategies in his mind."

"The experience on that battlefield is thousands of times stronger than Wu Yong's."

"What do brothers Yang Zhi think of the current situation?"

"There are no outsiders here, so you might as well speak frankly to us."

As soon as Wu Yong finished speaking, Yang Zhi, whose face was full of anger, immediately shouted out:

"That Tong Guan is also a senior official of the imperial court."

"On weekdays, it's okay not to worry about the officials, but at this juncture, they are still persecuting the people and confiscating ships."

"What's the difference between this and the barbarians of Jin and Liao who commit all kinds of crimes on the border, burning, killing, and looting?"

"It is really infuriating that the Song Dynasty court raised such a bunch of beasts with their monthly rations."

Yang Zhi cursed and cursed, but suddenly sighed:

"The military advisor is so complimentary."

"Although I, Yang Zhi, have been familiar with military art since I was a child, I am far from being fluent and comfortable in applying it when facing the enemy."

"So in the past ten years, the number of victories we have fought in our hands can only be counted on one finger."

"But now, since the military advisor has asked about Yang Zhi, Yang Zhi can also express some immature views on the situation between us and the enemy in front of him."

Gongsun Sheng shook the whisk in his hand slightly, then twisted his beard and smiled:

"Now, even the descendants of the dignified Yang family are so humble and polite when they talk."

"This leaves a few of us with no face to talk about military aircraft."

"So brother Yang Zhi, you better not be humble."

"Whatever comes to mind, just say it."

Yang Zhi nodded to Gongsun Sheng:

"If that's the case, then I won't be polite anymore."

"Just now, our spies from Shuibo Liangshan also came to report."

"That is, Tong Guan probably wants to recruit [-] ships from the private sector to carry troops."

"After all the soldiers under his command have been transported by this ship to the gold and silver stall in front of our Liangshan Dazhai, they will immediately launch an attack formation."

"Attack the defensive line of our Shuibo Liangshan Dazhai."

"I observe that the city defenses of our Liangshan Dazhai are extremely strong and well-arranged."

"But if it is attacked by the army for a long time, there will inevitably be some omissions."

"And those seemingly inconspicuous omissions can easily cause our fortifications to collapse in an instant."

"So in my opinion, the imperial army must not be released across the river unless it is absolutely necessary."

Wu raised his eyebrows, then smiled:

"According to what Brother Yang Zhi wants, do you want to cut off the river to the officers and soldiers?"

A flash of light suddenly flashed in Yang Zhi's eyes:

"The military advisor is indeed a military advisor. I just said the first half of my sentence and he immediately guessed what I was thinking."

"It's really amazing."

"But the method of cutting the river has its own method every time it is used."

"And each method of dealing with each war may produce countless changes."

"So, we still have to discuss the details carefully here."

……

At Tong Guan's place, it took several days of forced conquest before all the two thousand ships were collected.

Originally, according to Tong Guan's plan, all the two thousand ships had to be conquered.

Then a large-scale attack on Liangshan should be put on the agenda.

But Tong Guan only found out after he summoned his generals to discuss matters in the commander's tent.

At this time, it is true that two thousand ships were captured from the hands of the people.

But those ships, three or four out of ten, were small boats that could only carry four or five soldiers.

As for the large ships that can carry dozens of people, there are not even one tenth in number.

Of course, this problem is not the most fatal.

The most deadly thing is that the soldiers near the capital have not fought in water for many years.

Therefore, those who can swim and are not seasick account for less than [-]% of the [-] soldiers.

As for the remaining sixty-seven out of ten, they would feel dizzy and vomiting not long after boarding the ship.

There are even some soldiers, when all you can see is the river.

He was so frightened that his legs and feet were so weak that he couldn't even stand up.

Faced with such a situation, Tong Guan, who was eager to make a meritorious service and return to the capital, almost became mentally ill.

But he really couldn't blame him. After all, before Tong Guan led the army on the expedition, he had no mental expectations of fighting the enemy in a water battle.

Therefore, during this journey, one of them did not bring any soldiers who knew how to swim, and the other did not prepare any ships. This became a very reasonable thing.

The generals under Tong Guan's command, seeing their marshal's furious expression, began to advise him:

It is better for the troops to return to the court now. After returning to the court, they will rest for a while, recruit soldiers with good water skills, and build dozens of large ships. It will not be too late to launch a large-scale attack on Shuibo Liangshan.

But at this moment, Tong Guan forced himself to show off his face.

After all, he had sent a victory report to Tokyo City before this to claim credit from Zhao Ji.

What else can you say that soon we will wipe out Shuibo Liangshan, escort all the bandit leaders, and return to the capital.

If he had just arrived near Shuibo Liangshan and turned back to Beijing.

So how can those big words that were said before come true?

If his colleagues in the court used this to make fun of him, how could he bear it?

What's more, after the previous great victory, Tong Guan no longer took those bandits and bandits seriously.

At this moment, I thought very radically that they were just a bunch of native chickens and Watkins.
