Chapter 211: The Decisive Battle of Liantan Town (4)
The current state of the Qing court is chaotic but not dispersed, fighting but not breaking, no matter how the fourth and fourteenth kick the black feet in the back, but the face is still very peaceful, although Kangxi is clear in his heart, but he will not directly puncture this illusion, if that is the case, it will really fall into the struggle to the death.
Not to mention the Qing court, there were also some disagreements within the Fu Han army because of this decisive battle. The two sides of the disagreement are naturally about the next step, that is, whether Yue Zhongqi will fight or not?
At the beginning, Ning Yu clearly told everyone that fighting Anqing was just a means, and the purpose was to attract Kangxi's army to the south to achieve a decisive battle, which everyone agreed. But here's the problem, the current Kangxi seems to smell something, a little forward-looking, and stops watching in Tongcheng, and has no intention of going south.
In this case, whether to continue to attack Anqing has become a matter of concern to the big guys, and there are certain differences between the two sides over this matter.
Cheng Zhien, Dong Ce and others thought that they could not fight, and if they attacked Anqing, the losses would be quite large, and the army could make a detour to the north, control the strategic points, and then achieve a substantive decisive battle with Kangxi. Cheng Ming, Qian Ying and others believe that the current situation is already very clear, and if the army goes north, Kangxi may not directly engage in the battle.
I have to say that both Emperor Kangxi and Yue Zhongqi are old guys who have fought on the battlefield, and their knowledge and spiciness, which are not comparable to today's young Fu Han army groups, but for Ning Yu, this point is not insurmountable.
"If he wants to guard Anqing and Tongcheng, let him guard it, we don't necessarily have to fight with them here." Ning Yu happily took a book, stood up from the wide seat, and then stretched his stiff body and walked in front of the wide map.
Everyone was a little puzzled when they heard this, but they also stood up and leaned closer = waiting for Ning Yu's instructions, this scene is becoming more and more rare, mainly because after Ning Yu set up the staff office and put it into operation, many decisions can be made through the power of everyone.
Ning Yu directly pointed to a point on the map, and sneered: "Kangxi Lao'er's plan, isn't it just to consume it with me, to consume it until I withdraw from the army, and then he can take this opportunity to return to the dynasty and give an explanation to the whole world." ”
"But our army is not without a way out except to fight and retreat, that is, with the help of the Yangtze River water conservancy, all the way to Jiangning!" Ning Yu's finger had already pointed at Jiang Ning.
This scene made everyone present suddenly realize, in addition to marveling at the subtlety of this move, it was to sigh Ning Yu's boldness, the risk taken by this move was by no means ordinary, if Kangxi took the opportunity to go south, then the back road of the Han army would be in danger of being cut off, and if there was a slight carelessness, it would be the result of the annihilation of the whole army.
Cheng Ming stared at the map for a long time, and finally sighed and said: "The Metropolitan Governor is so bold, but this plan is too risky, if Yue Zhongqi and Kangxi find out the truth of our army, I am afraid they will not let go of this opportunity." ”
Everyone was silent, although the strategy that Ning Yu said was very amazing and the prospects were very attractive, but the risk was enough to make the brain sober up, and they didn't dare to think about it any more.
If this plan is successful, not to mention the tenfold and hundredfold benefits, I am afraid that everyone here will enjoy endless glory and wealth!
Ning Yu smiled, "Who said that this strategy didn't take this into account?" Just want to throw out the incense bait to catch the golden ao, this fragrant bait has to be more palatable, otherwise how can this golden ao be fooled? Ladies and gentlemen, please listen to me in detail. ”
This night, everyone argued in the camp tent for a whole night, and the candles were changed and changed, but when the sky was slightly bright, everyone perfected this plan, and when the sleepiness hit, it was Chen Caiwei who sent people to set up a cauldron outside the camp tent and cook many bowls of fragrant soup to relieve everyone's fatigue.
After getting married, Chen Caiwei seemed to be in a much better mood, and I don't know if it was because she married Ning Yu, or because her father was worry-free, and she smiled more on weekdays, and her feelings for Ning Yu were gradually growing, and she began to clumsily act like a real woman to do these things.
After Ning Yu left the camp, he held the soup brought by Chen Caiwei himself, and felt a little uncontrollable for a while, no matter how many conspiracies and intrigues, no matter how much intrigue and intrigue there was, it seemed that he could not cover up the things in this girl's heart, which made Ning Yu a little dazed.
From an emotional point of view, Ning Yu only put his friendship to Cui Xi, but it was only a little, he couldn't withdraw himself from the great cause, and he couldn't concentrate on savoring this marriage and relationship. For Chen Caiwei, the original idea was not simple enough, and naturally there would not be much love. This confusion only lasted for a moment.
On the twenty-fifth day of the sixtyth year of Kangxi, five days before Chinese New Year's Eve, the Fuhan army did not stop its pace, but once again accelerated the speed of its advance, and in order to better guarantee the upcoming war, Wuchang once again allocated hundreds of civilian ships to deliver supplies to the Fuhan army.
On the Hankou wharf outside Wuchang City, which has been designated as a military restricted area at this time, a large number of newly produced Hanyang-made muskets, artillery, and gunpowder projectiles are being transported here for storage, wrapped with a thick layer of raincoats, so as to prevent the resurgence of moisture and being wet, in addition, there are also a lot of grain rice, vinegar cloth, soybean paste, tung oil and other materials are also being assembled here.
If ordinary people saw this scene, even if it was difficult to distinguish where these materials were placed, it would be even more difficult to coordinate the transportation of these materials to Anqing, and the dozens of masters under Ning Zhongjing were already so tired that they could fall asleep when they lay down, but they were in military affairs, but no one was allowed to delay for a moment.
Ning Zhongjing's temperament was originally more meticulous, and since he was in charge of the logistics of the entire Fu Han army, he was even more busy forgetting to sleep and eat, often ignoring his own hard work, and coordinating the transportation of the entire material for the Fu Han army on the front line, which made Ning Yu also quite worry-free.
Seeing that a big battle was about to be fought, Ning Zhongjing also understood that his burden was heavy, and he didn't dare to ignore it at all, and even told the officials and soldiers who were escorting him.
"You are all old men of my Han Army, you should also know in your hearts that this trip is a heavy task, the front-line battlefield is already on the verge of breaking out, our materials, which are used to save lives, must be delivered, I would rather someone thank you in advance!"
Ning Zhongjing bent down and bowed, but he shocked the people below, the big guy has now regarded him as a figure like Xiao He, and he is the younger brother of the King of Chu, and he will also be a prince in the future, but now he salutes the big guy, how can this be made? The big guy hurriedly humbled and didn't dare to accept this gift.
Ning Zhongjing insisted on finishing this benefit, and his face was slightly serious.
"It's just that you still need to remember that this batch of materials must arrive on time, otherwise it will be done by military law!"
After saying something, everyone broke out in a cold sweat.
