"Is this going to start another war?" Don't be in a hurry, he is really in a hurry, fools understand what the consequences of transferring the Northern Expeditionary Army to Ganyu will be.

Ganyu, a county in the northeast corner of Huai'an Prefecture, belongs to Haizhou, borders Yanzhou and Qingzhou, and to the north of it is Andongwei, an important coastal defense town with a history of nearly 300 years.

Anton Wei was founded in the Hongwu period and was one of the nineteen guards in the early Ming Dynasty.

After the Manchu Qing Dynasty came to power, it was not abandoned.

After the Second Battle of the Northern Expeditionary Army, the Qing troops of the former Huai'an and Yangzhou fled north, plus the Qing court's additional troops and the original garrison of Qingzhou, for a time, the number of Andongwei garrisons reached unprecedented, more than 50,000 people, and even Rizhao, which was not far away, was overcrowded.

Therefore, in Mo Zhinian's view, the transfer of the Northern Expeditionary Army to Ganyu is tantamount to declaring war on the Qing court again.

Mo Zhi does not oppose and is in favor of an early Northern Expedition, but it is by no means the moment.

After Mo Zhi's question, Xiong Rulin also agreed: "The minister thinks that now is not a good opportunity for another northern expedition, since he has signed a peace treaty with the Qing court, he might as well give the people of Jiangnan a time to recuperate...... Unless the Qing court deliberately violates the peace treaty, it is the best policy for us to focus on internal affairs for at least three years and consolidate the two prefectures of Huai'an and Yangzhou, which have just been recovered. ”

Zhang Guowei said: "What Brother Yu Yin said is reasonable, at this time, the Qing army in Fujian and Guangdong was fighting fiercely with the Great Western Army, and the strategy set by the prince was also to secretly manipulate the battlefield in Fujian and Guangdong, so that the Qing court had to continuously invest military and financial resources into the battlefield of Fujian and Guangdong, and finally fell into the quagmire and could not extricate itself...... But if the Northern Expeditionary Army was transferred north to Ganyu at this time, the Qing court would definitely suspect that the prince had the intention of launching the Northern Expedition. If the Qing court turns its attention to us, with the Eight Banners stationed in Beijing in the north and the 100,000 horses in Dorbo in the west, it will be difficult for our army to take advantage of anything, and this will inevitably be another big war...... I hope the prince will think twice. ”

Even Zhang Huangyan, who has been standing on Wu Zheng's side, also dissuaded: "If you want to hurry, you can't reach it, what the two political secretaries said is reasonable." At present, the Qing court wants to buy a large number of guns, and the military workshop is the time to make money every day, if the prince starts a war at this time...... If I were Mo Lao, I would have to jump my feet, wouldn't I? ”

Almost all the chief officials of the General's Mansion opposed Wu Zheng's transfer of the Northern Expeditionary Army to Ganyu, and Wu Zheng was actually not surprised.

"The princes have misunderstood." Wu Zheng was out of breath and his heart was not beating, and said calmly, "Lone has no intention of launching the Northern Expedition at this time. ”

Listen, listen, it's better to say than to sing. Mo Zhinian thought so in his heart, he swept his gaze to everyone, and in everyone's retrospective, Mo Zhinian found resonance.

Wu Zheng raised his head and snorted, "But, there is one point, this king always insists." ”

Look, look, it's going to be revealed. Mo Zhinian exhaled softly, not that he wanted to sigh, but that he was not allowed to sigh at this time, many times, sighing indicated his position, especially when Shangguan said the word "persistence".

Wu Zheng heard it, but he didn't care.

"Military retaliation is indispensable for a strong country." Wu Zheng said without blushing and panting, "Chen Mingxia's death is not an isolated case, all the princes already know that after Chen Mingxia, many people have been killed...... Yes, among these people, not all of them are southern-minded people, but more of them are victims of the enemy's struggle for power and wealth. However, no one will pay attention to this, and everyone in the world will think that Chen Mingxia was killed on the spot without trial because of his secret collusion with the south, so that people's hearts will fluctuate, and the hearts of people who originally began to turn will sway again...... All the princes should be able to understand that fighting for the world is the people's hearts and minds, and the hearts of the people in the world are different, not everyone is as upright as the princes, they need forgiveness at the same time, but also need guidance and ...... Console. ”

Speaking of this, Wu Zheng stood up and said: "Transferring the Northern Expeditionary Army to Ganyu is a military retaliation...... I want everyone in the world to understand three words...... Don't mess with me! ”

Don't mess with me?

Xiong Rulin, Zhang Guowei, Zhang Huangyan, and Mo obsessively looked at each other.

Mo Zhi hesitated and asked, "But the 20,000 Northern Expeditionary Army was transferred to the north, in case it caused a strong reaction from the Qing court...... ”

Wu Zheng raised his hand to stop him: "Mo Lao, do you think that Jiangnan, which has been governed by Gu for five years, is not as good as the Qing court with civil strife?" How much did the financial secretary's embarrassment overshadow the Qing court's financial embarrassment? ”

Don't be obsessed with it.

"If we can't afford to fight, the Qing court can?" Wu Zheng waved his sleeves casually, "No, they can't afford to fight." The Dashun Army in the northwest is encroaching on Shaanxi and Gansu, and Wu Sangui and other troops have more than enough self-preservation and are powerless to return reinforcements. If it weren't for the king's transfer of Jinhua Wei to help the Qing army in Fujian, I am afraid that half of Fujian would have ...... already in the hands of the Great Western Army. ”

These words made everyone present slightly bow their heads in approval, even Mo Zhinian was no exception.

It was precisely because Jin Huawei "helped" the Qing army in Fujian that he blocked the eastward advance of Gao Yigong's department in Changting.

Of course, everyone understands that this is a strategy set by Wu Zheng.

The recovery of Fujian and Guangdong and the sweep of the Qing army in the two places were actually just a gesture, but if Fujian and Guangdong were quickly recovered, the Qing court would be relieved.

Only a broken arm can survive.

Only by allowing the Qing army in Fujian and Guangdong to continue to exist can the Qing court fall into a quagmire and cannot extricate itself.

The Qing court wanted to take the initiative to abandon Fujian and Guangdong, but it was definitely reluctant, and it could not explain to the military and civilians under its rule.

If you don't abandon Fujian and Guangdong, the land communication was completely blocked by the Jianxin Dynasty and the Great Western Army, and the Qing court wanted to save the Qing army in Fujian and Guangdong, how easy was it to talk about?

The Qing court could only give the Qing army in Fujian and Guangdong difficult supplies through the section of the canal controlled by the Jianxin Dynasty, but in this way, Wu Zheng, who is known as "the goose plucked its feathers", can not intercept half?

This is the disguised strategy of "encirclement and reinforcement" planned by Wu Zheng.

Let the Qing army in Fujian and Guangdong exist, drag down the Qing court, at least let the Qing court continue to lose blood and have no chance to lick the wounds, until finally the oil runs out and the lamp dries up, and it is effortless to recover the lost land.

Wu Zheng continued: "This king has concluded that the Qing court will not dare to start a war with me. After the reorganization of the Zhengjia Naval Division, thousands of miles of coastline along the coast were all under the control of our naval division, and the Qing court newly established the Great Qingshui Division, known as 100 warships...... Hehe, not for a year and a half, I'm afraid I can't get out of Dagukou, does the Qing court have to worry, once it annoys the king, the sailors under the command of the king landed in Tianjin Wei in one fell swoop, the princes...... At that time, if the king speaks, it will not be a thousand children and eight hundred, and it will be able to send ....... ”

This caused everyone to laugh, and yes, this is too long-hearted, although everyone understands that after the Qing court built the Dagukou Fort Group on a large scale, it is not easy for the sailor to land in Tianjinwei, but the truth is still this truth, the sailor really wants to fight hard, and the success of winning Dagukou is not small.

There is only one reason why they do not do this, which is to preserve their own strength to the greatest extent.
