The Three Kingdoms began with island farming

Chapter 652 Generals Swap
"Your Highness, I think we can adjust the strategic direction of the north and west." Dipper said
Bo Diao, who was about to let go of the iron plate, froze in his tracks when he heard this, and almost broke.

Not caring about the slight discomfort in his body, Bo Diao suppressed the anger in his heart and slammed the iron plate heavily on the table, making the cups and glasses around him clink. "Speak clearly! How do you want to adjust it?"

Dipper swallowed his saliva and said carefully: "Now the Han army and Hubisheka III are in a pincer attack in the east. A strong attack may not be effective."

"The number of guards around the capital is also insufficient. We must be on guard against the northern expedition of the Han army in the south and must not act rashly."

"And the Han army in the north is also quite large, so we cannot move them lightly."

"It would be better to simply switch the eastern army to a defensive position, and the northern army to an offensive position, catching the Han army off guard."

"If we can defeat or even drive back the Han army in the north, we can free up enough troops to support the east, and then gradually revitalize the entire battle situation."

When everyone in the hall heard this, they were all shocked.

But looking at Bo Diao who was lost in thought, he did not dare to express his opinion.

Zarwan frowned slightly, this plan was indeed clever.

Although the possibility of success is low and there are certain risks, given the terrain in the north, as long as we are cautious, it should be fine.

There is no other way now. We have no choice but to give it a try.

Bo Diao also carefully analyzed the possibilities and paced back and forth in the hall.

Suddenly, he turned around and said, "Great! This is a great idea!"

"Zarwan, what do you think?"

Hearing Bo Diao's question, Zalwan said hesitantly: "I think this strategy can be tried."

Seeing that his plan was adopted, Dipper breathed a sigh of relief and didn't have to be beaten.

However, he came up with this plan in a hurry and he didn't know its feasibility, what if it failed.

Dipper's face turned pale.

However, Bo Diao had no intention of letting him go.

"Dipper, what do you think we should do?"

It is better to have two masters for one thing. Bo Diao believes that since Dipper can come up with such a brilliant plan, he must have some idea in mind.

Dipper felt his mind go blank. He looked at Bo Diao's expectant eyes, then glanced at the thick iron plate. After a fierce psychological struggle, he gritted his teeth and told his staff the original suggestion.

"I think that the troops in the two regions should not be moved rashly, but they can be replaced."

"Switch General Singh in the east with General Hussain and General Bhim in the north."

Bo Diao stroked the ruby-encrusted belt buckle and stared at Dipper like a hawk: "Keep talking!"

Dipper's back was already soaked with cold sweat, and he continued with all his might: "General Singh is best at frontal attacks. With his ability, he will surely be able to defeat the Han army in the north."

"General Hussein and General Bim are good at defense, and they work well together. They can be ordered to guard the eastern defense line to resist the attack from Hubishekhar III and the Han army."

Bo Diao nodded gently: "Not bad."

Then he looked at the ministers and asked, "What do you think?"

"Good advice!"

"This is a great idea!"

"Your Highness is wise!"

Upon hearing this, all the ministers praised him one after another.

What could they say in this situation? If they showed any objection, they would just lie down and be sent out like the people before them.

However, Zarwan, who had been sitting on the ground, frowned. "Your Highness, I think this is a good plan. But why do we have to ask the two veterans, Hussein and Bim, to evacuate the northern border? They are most familiar with the situation in the northern border. If they all evacuate, I'm afraid there will be loopholes in the defense."

"Changing generals before a battle is a taboo in the military. Moreover, the terrain in the north is complicated and General Singh is not familiar with the local military situation. I think it should be enough to withdraw one general just in case."

Upon hearing this, Bo Diao frowned slightly and prepared to take action.

But seeing Zalwan sitting on the ground in a rather embarrassed state, it was indeed difficult to choose, so he turned his gaze to Dipper: "Dipper, what do you think?"

Dipper immediately saw the dissatisfaction in Bo Diao's eyes, and his heart was alarmed. He quickly said righteously: "I think everyone should be rotated."

"General Singh had little contact with Hussain and General Bhim before. If they were to be combined for the sake of safety, it would be bad."

"Besides, General Singh is a leader in the army. He is both brave and calm. He will definitely be able to properly handle the offensive and defensive issues in the north."

Hearing this, Bo Diao nodded with satisfaction.

Dipper heaved a sigh of relief, but Zalwan sighed inwardly.

He understood what Bo Diao was thinking.

Singh was Bodiao's confidant and relied on him highly, but he was still young, and his qualifications and reputation in the army were not as good as those of the two veterans Hussein and Bim.

These two veterans were left to Bo Diao by the old king, and were not trusted or valued by Bo Diao.

Especially in this situation, if Singh teams up with one of them, it's hard to say who the Northern Army will obey.

The successive betrayals and problems in various regions have made the already suspicious Bo Diao even more vigilant, and it is simply impossible for him to hand over the military power to the team left by the old king.

He knew he shouldn't have said that, but he was still a little worried about Singer's temperament.

Becoming famous too early may not necessarily be a good thing.

Singh had a smooth journey and won every battle. Although he seemed calm on the surface, he could not hide his arrogance and his use of troops was quite radical.

Especially after suffering losses and humiliation at the hands of the Han people this time, I am afraid they will inevitably adopt more radical military strategies when they go to the northern border next time.

The soldiers in the north did not know Singh well, and on both sides, "the soldiers did not know their generals, and the generals did not know their soldiers." In this situation, given Singh's temper, he would certainly establish his authority by being arbitrary and domineering.

This will definitely cause trouble.

This is what Zalwan was worried about.

However, thinking about the terrain of the North and the strength of the Northern Army, Zarwan felt a little relieved.

Even if Singer suffered a loss, the North should be able to be defended, so he shouldn't worry about it in vain.

He also realized that in the current court, he was the only one whose words could be barely heard, while others could only serve as yes-men.

In this situation, he had to stay and not go against Bo Diao's ideas too much, otherwise when Bo Diao did something ridiculous, there would be no one to dissuade him.

Seeing that Zalwan said no more, Bodiao smiled slightly.

"Okay, let's do as Dipper says."

“Your Majesty, if you change the generals, you must do it secretly to avoid being noticed by the enemy and taking the opportunity to send troops,” Zalwan added.

“Besides, it would be better to rotate them one by one, first sending General Bhim to the east, then General Singh to the north, and finally Hussain to the east.”

Upon hearing this, Bo Diao frowned slightly.

"This is too much trouble."

However, considering Zalwan's previous compromise, Bo Diao snorted coldly: "Forget it, I'll do as you say."
