Chapter 387: Troops Attack Zhenjiang

It was already late at night, and the British duke's room was still bright, after listening to Chen Junde's strategy of leveling Liao, Zhang Weixian looked at the perseverance on his face Chen Junde said with relief: "Your strategy is still feasible at first glance, but the specific needs to be carefully studied to determine." Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info but there is one thing you have to remember Junde, remember not to be in a hurry when you go back, and to prepare for the war steadily. If the timing is right, you must not hesitate to send troops, and you don't need to pay attention to any military orders from the Liaodong side. As long as you can win, we will clear all obstacles for you! The old man will also give you some help accordingly, you don't have to worry about food, horses, weapons and equipment, etc., and you will definitely not be short of killing the captive army! We and other nobles rely on you to raise their faces, and the future of Xungui also depends on you to support them"!

Chen Junde knelt on the ground and said with sincerity on his face: "Rest assured, Grandpa Guo, Junde will live up to the high expectations of all the nobles"!

Xu Xi, the Duke of Dingguo on the side, also thought for a while and said: "Recently, the imperial court has purchased a lot of Frankie cannons, and they are idle in the Beijing camp, and the old man will send someone to send them to you tomorrow." You take it back to Liaodong, it is said that the cannon body is flexible, the firing range is almost two miles, and the power is also huge. Wang Gongchang also has a lot of firearms and ammunition, Junde, you can bring it back to equip the captive army, and let these weapons play their due role. As for the establishment of the captive army, the old man will help you achieve it with the British public, your task is to win the battle, and I will do the rest for you"!

Chen Junde, who was still kneeling on the ground, patted his chest and promised: "Grandpa Guo, rest assured, I, Chen Junde, will use one victory after another, so that I can spread the name of the nobles all over the world!"

Liaodong had just encountered a new defeat, and it was a time when people's hearts were unstable and soldiers were discouraged. And Xiong Tingbi, who went and returned, took over the mess of Liaodong again at this juncture. At this moment, he is a little different from the previous situation of monopolizing power, and the partner with him is no longer the good old governor Zhou Yongtai. What he needs to face is the new governor Wang Huazhen, who has always been arrogant and has something to do with the eunuch party.

At present, the situation in Liaodong is grim, and Xiong Tingbi, who is in Shanhaiguan, said with a worried face: "At present, Jiannu is violent, and our soldiers have long been frightened and should not go out of the city to fight with them. Therefore, make a tripartite arrangement, increase Deng, Lai, Jinmen soldiers, and heavy troops Tunshan Customs, wait for the towns to gather soldiers and horses, Deng, Laize should be ready, and then the three parties will march together to break the enemy"!

As soon as Xiong Tingbi's words fell, Wang Huazhen, the new governor over there, heard an opposing voice: "At this time, Liao Shen is already in the enemy's hands, when do you have to wait?" It should take advantage of Jiannu's unstable foothold to attack Jiannu and recover Liaoshen, how can he cower here? This is the time for us to serve the country, and you are stagnant, how can you face the Holy One, how can you face the people of the world?"

Xiong Tingbi frowned and replied: "This move is just step by step, neither do you have to worry about Jiannu sending troops to sneak attack, let alone worry about repeating the mistakes of the past, how can you be sorry for the saints and the people?" Governor Wang, you have been to Liaodong several times, why are you so wildly talking"!

"This official has been to Liaodong a few times, you don't have to worry about it, you just guard it in Shanhaiguan, this official is the governor of Liaodong, and he will defend the land for the saint, and rush to the front line of Guangning to find a good opportunity to kill the enemy. The official heard that Zhong Yibo, who had severed his ties with you, had returned to Liao in the face of the saint, and he and Mao Wenlong, the old subordinate of the official, were sworn brothers. You are so afraid of Jiannu, so the official will send the army of captives who have defeated Jiannu to test and see how you, the former teacher, will deal with himself in the face of the great achievements of his students."

Xiong Tingbi stood up when he heard the words, squinted his eyes at Wang Huazhen and asked loudly, "This official has passed through Liaodong, and without the order of this official, how dare you mobilize the army"?

Wang Huazhen smiled disapprovingly, then stood up and responded with an extremely arrogant attitude: "This official receives the holy decree and listens to the emperor's orders, and he doesn't need your Xiong Tingbi to control it!" Besides, when it comes to killing the captive army, I'm afraid that Xiong Tingbi can't move it, and he probably hates you now, a teacher who calculates his students with others! And this official and Chen Junde are both subordinates of Gonggong Wei, as long as you say that no matter how Xiong Tingbi gives the order, he will definitely listen to the official's orders! This official wants to use Chen Junde's courage to kill the captive army, and he will definitely be able to bring a great surprise to the saint and the imperial court. Stay here, Lord Jinglu, farewell"!

Looking at Wang Huazhen, who walked out with an arrogant attitude, Xiong Tingbi was angry, but he really had nothing to do. Zhang Heming, the secretary of the Ministry of War, supported him, and as he said, he could command more than 5,000 people from his cronies. And when he heard Wang Huazhen mention Chen Junde more than once, Xiong Tingbi had both hatred and pity in his eyes. What he hates is that he even disregarded his integrity and defected to the eunuch party, and in the future, he will definitely help the country and the people; It's a pity that such a good seedling was pushed out by himself and became a lackey of the eunuch party.

Looking at this overwhelming strategy and governor, the Liaodong officials present were dumbfounded, and at the same time they were deeply worried about the war in Liaodong. How can we win a battle after discord? This has made the situation in Liaodong, which is becoming more and more devastated, even worse.

Today's Sanyang suddenly became lively with Chen Junde's return, and the soldiers were all shotguns for guns, including Mao Wenlong's generals, who used the brand-new firearms that Chen Junde brought back from the capital. And the happiest thing is Liu Mazi, a madman who loves to tinker with cannons in the killing army. Looking at these brand-new Hongyi cannons in front of him, Liu Mazi carefully touched dozens of heavy firearms known as military artillery, and he couldn't put it down. Especially when he saw that the cannon body had cannon lugs and sights, which could adjust the firing range, he suddenly shouted excitedly, and instantly threw aside the rags that exploded after the previous hits.

"My lord, with these treasures, it's really like a tiger with wings! Look, my lord, this cannonball is not just a solid shell, but a flowering shell, and the power must be doubled! When you fight with Jiannu, you have to watch carefully, fighting in the crowd is even more spectacular than a hundred flowers blooming! "Liu Mazi, this is called learning and selling, and after the gunner who just followed the line understood it, he ran to Chen Junde to show off. Holding a flowering bullet in his hand, he kept gesturing, which frightened the people around him to dodge. And although Chen Junde's face did not change, he was also a little hairy in his heart. If it weren't for his brother by his side, Chen Junde would have fled far away.

"Well, got it. Hurry up and train the sergeants to familiarize themselves with the artillery, and form combat effectiveness as soon as possible, and I will count on you when I fight in the future! Looking at Liu Mazi, who nodded violently and turned away, Chen Junde let out a long breath, and then turned his face to Mao Wenlong beside him and said: "Brother, don't be surprised, this kid can't raise his head because of the power of the cannon, and now he is inevitably a little excited to see the new cannon"!

"Junde, you should tell him to be careful, if this blows up, our brothers will both explain here!" Mao Wenlong, who said this, actually had palpitations, but he couldn't lose his eldest brother's momentum in front of his brother, so he was also standing up here. After the danger was lifted now, Mao Wenlong pointed to carts of weapons and ammunition and said with a smile: "It seems that Junde, you have gained a lot from entering Beijing this time, so much equipment, it is more than enough to fight a tough battle"!

"Brother, foolish brother is going to tell you this! Regarding the battle of Zhenjiang, I think it is most appropriate for us to act now! At present, Jiannu is busy moving the capital to Shenyang after capturing Liaoyang City, and other places must be slack. And I also have intelligence that the main force of Zhenjiang Jiannu went to Shuangshan to kill the people of the Ming Dynasty who refused to surrender, and Zhenjiang is the most empty time at this moment"!

Mao Wenlong is no longer a garrison military attaché, but was promoted to guerrilla because he was ordered by Yuan Yingtai to supervise the gunpowder. Needless to say, he already had the heart to recover Zhenjiang, but he didn't have it before, and he couldn't be unmoved after Chen Junde's persuasion. Therefore, as soon as Chen Junde's words fell, Mao Wenlong, who had already had this intention, nodded and said: "Okay, this is exactly what my brother has this intention." And Junde, your intelligence has always been very accurate, so prepare for the whole army for my brother, and strive to send troops to attack Zhenjiang as soon as possible!"

But Chen Junde retorted: "Brother, the battle situation is fleeting, what if you and I reorganize the army, what if the main force of Jiannu returns to Zhenjiang?" If you and my brother each lead a hundred elite soldiers to attack Zhenjiang, and there are few people and the target is small, we will definitely be able to succeed in one fell swoop!"

Mao Wenlong also knows the reason for the speed of soldiers, although Chen Junde proposed some risks, but the fighter plane is just such a moment, if it is missed, I don't know how many brothers' lives will have to be used to achieve the same result. Mao Wenlong, who was not decisive, immediately nodded in agreement, and then explained: "Okay, then let's go and select the warriors separately, and lead the army to the expedition tonight!" And Junde, you remember to pick some soldiers who are good at water, and when you attack Zhenjiang, you will inevitably have to fight by boat"!

Chen Junde felt a little helpless when he heard this, his sergeants were good at everything, but they were all men from the north, and they were all landlubbers. It seems that I can only pull out the big one in my son and find some ones that don't vomit on the boat. After conquering Zhenjiang, they must train their water nature!

Both of them are decisive people, since they decided to send troops, they did not delay at all, quickly gathered their own elite soldiers, avoided Houjin's army on land, and took six speedboats by water and went straight to Zhenjiang.

"More than 2,000 miles of waterway along the way, Junde, come and see." Then the faint candlelight in the boat, Mao Wenlong pointed to Chen Junde with a map in his hand: "Passing through Pig Island, Ocean Island, Changshan Island, Guanglu Island and other coastal islands. In order not to startle the snake, we must pull out these nails and touch them under the Zhenjiang Gate unconsciously"!

Chen Junde nodded after hearing this, and said with a smile: "Haha, foolish brother, there are a lot of armor of the Eight Banners here, and they can be regarded as handy this time!"
