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

"You actually came back to report such news to us?"

"What a fuss!"

But Zheng Biao, who was sitting nearby, frowned and stood up from the desk after suddenly hearing the news.

The whisk in his hand was shaking gently.

It was like the thoughts in his mind were floating around.

As he was thinking about it, a bright light suddenly flashed through Zheng Mojun's eyes:

"Generals, please listen to Pindao."

"Pindao seems to have figured out now why the Song Dynasty army and horses, although they are guarding Tokyo City well, insist on starting a decisive battle with us on the plains three days later."

As soon as Zheng Biao finished speaking, several generals gathered in the war room turned their gazes over.

Because at this moment, they were really confused in their hearts.

He even thought that such an appointment to fight was a situation set by the other party in advance.

But when he heard this, Zheng Biao actually guessed why.

So they cast their gazes over, wanting to hear what key details the Taoist Demon King had thought of.

The expression on Zheng Biao's face was a faint smile.

As he waved the fly whisk gently in his hand, he exposed his two front teeth:

"Before I tell you my true thoughts, I would like to ask the generals here."

"What if now, the people guarding Tokyo City are not some officials of the Song Dynasty, but all the generals here?"

"But I don't know the generals here, what happened in the city that would force the generals to give up the advantage of defending the city and start a decisive battle with the enemy on the plains?"

"Please generals, please imagine this, because it will be more helpful for you generals to understand Pindao's thoughts."

After listening to Zheng Biao's remarks, generals such as Guiying, Pang Wanchun, Zhang Jian, and Yuan Xing couldn't help but frown.

Some of them stretched out two fingers and kept tapping them on the desk in front of them, as if they were thinking deeply.

Some picked up the tea placed on the desk and frowned while drinking.

It wasn't until half a quarter of an hour later that they all expressed their thoughts.

The first person to speak was Pang Wanchun, known as Xiao Yang Youji:

"If you look at it from the general's point of view, the general and his troops cannot survive unless they are in that city."

"If not, they will definitely not give up the advantage of defending the city, so they will start a plain showdown with the enemy."

"Because that will not be of any help to our army at all."

"It's really an extremely stupid strategy."

"As long as the general guarding the city is not a fool, he will definitely not do that."

"As for that city, what kind of difficult situation did it encounter that made it difficult to survive?"

"If you put it this way, I'm afraid it's too much."

As soon as Pang Wanchun finished speaking, Sui, who was sitting opposite, stood up and nodded:

"What General Pang said is absolutely true, and I think so too."

"In my opinion, unless an extremely terrible plague broke out in the city."

"In other words, the food in the city is no longer enough."

"Otherwise, this general will never take the initiative to come out from that fortified city."

"But if it's a plague, will the many soldiers and generals in the city wait until three days before leaving the city?"

"I'm afraid that if the people in the city are in chaos, they will open the city gates and flee one after another soon."

"If that's not the case, then there should be a shortage of food in the city."

"But such a guess is not quite right."

"Since Tokyo City is the capital of the entire Song Dynasty, there must be countless grains inside."

"And in recent days, due to very little rainfall, it is impossible to cause large quantities of rice and flour to become moldy."

"Even if this is the case, it is impossible for there to be a food shortage that is not enough for the people in the city."

Zheng Biao came to Sui's side with a whisk in hand and a slight smile on his face. Then he raised his hand and patted Sui's shoulder gently.

"General Guiying is worthy of being a general of hundreds of battles under the command of King Wang Qing. He really understands this matter of marching and fighting very thoroughly."

"However, the ability to consider problems comprehensively is slightly lacking."

Qian's brows furrowed, but before he could ask the question, Zheng Biao started talking to himself again:

"The generals here must have heard from the messenger just now that there was a fire in Tokyo last night."

"And such a fire should be huge."

"In this case, all the generals here might as well imagine it together with Pindao."

"What if the huge fire last night was ignited near the granary in Tokyo City?"

"Perhaps the fire did not burn all the food in Tokyo."

"But while the officers and soldiers in the city are trying to put out the fire, it may also result in a large amount of rice that cannot be eaten in a short period of time."

"With the sudden decrease in food and grass, what can so many soldiers, warriors, and civilians in the city eat and drink in the next period of time?"

"When there is no food or drink in the city, those soldiers and horses come here without leaving the city, are they still trapped in there and die?"

At this moment, Pang Wanchun nodded extremely frequently, and the expression on his face was extremely excited.

Suddenly he raised his hand, pointed at Zheng Biao standing on one side, and shouted:

"The reason why the defending officials in Tokyo City will start a decisive battle with our soldiers outside the city three days later."

"Does this also mean that the food in Tokyo city at the moment is only enough for the soldiers and generals to eat and drink for three days?"

Zheng Biao grinned:

"That's how it should be!"

"So this kind of opportunity is definitely a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for us."

"According to Pindao's prediction, in five days at most, the entire city of Tokyo will be owned by our three families!"

While Pang Wanchun was smiling, he also asked Zheng Biao this question:

"Then let's send a message to our king to ask for reinforcements next?"

Zheng Biao slowly shook his head:

"It's not necessary."

"Just imagine, before this, why did the defenders of Tokyo City keep fighting and avoiding our army?"

"I guess the reason must not be complicated. It's just that the defenders in Tokyo City must be inferior to us in terms of their own strength."

"What if it's the other way around?"

"What if Tokyo City's defense force is extremely strong?"

"By then, we might not need our three forces to take the initiative to attack the city."

"Then the defending forces in Tokyo City will take the initiative to attack and wipe out the more than [-] troops and horses of our three forces."
