Chapter 135: Heading South? Eastward?

Kangxi 60 years is destined to be an extraordinary year, the world is in turmoil, there are Han kings, Chu kings and Zhongxing kings, for Ning Yu, what he can do is to master as much territory as possible, expand the strength of the Han army, in order to reduce the lineup brought about by the chaos.

After fighting the crucial Battle of Changsha, Ning Yu took a short break in Changsha, and it was not until June 25 that a new strategic deployment began, which was also the first time that middle and high-level officers attended a meeting since the establishment of the Zhengnan Governorate.

Dozens of officers at or above the regimental level in the three divisions are crammed into a not very large room, they are the core force of the current Zhengnan Governor's Office, and they are also the rising stars of the Fu Han Army, just like their Shangguan Ningyu, the average age of this officer corps is not even 30 years old, and in one word it is young and vigorous.

"According to the order of the Chu Prince's Mansion, our Zhengnan Army was formally established, and the first and second divisions and the independent first division were under the command of the Zhengnan Metropolitan Governor's Office, with a total of 28,000 personnel. At present, the main strategic planning directions are Hunan, Jiangxi and Anhui. Dong Ce held a booklet and read it seriously.

"According to the order of the Dadu Governor's Office, the first division of the main force attacked Yuling, eliminated the remaining two Qing troops in Guangzhou, and then marched east to Jiangxi, pinning down the 100,000 Qing troops in Cha Bina, so that they did not dare to advance westward with confidence."

Ning Yu waved his hand and interrupted Dong Ce, "Our army should use sports tactics to contain the other party as much as possible, instead of going to fight with Cha Bina's 100,000 Qing army, this battle is no better than Changsha, at that time, our army had no advance or retreat, but at this time, it is not necessary, try to pull Cha Bi Na in the movement, our army is small, they are many, and they can't do a loss." ”

"Obey the orders of the Metropolitan Governor." Everyone replied in unison, they were already very familiar with Ning Yu's way of doing things, if there was a need to discuss the issue of discussion, Ning Yu would often ask everyone's ideas, if a decision had been made, then there was only implementation, no need to discuss.

Movement warfare was not an unimaginable tactic for the Fu Han army at this time, especially the first division of the Fu Han army brought together the elite of the whole army, and the officers at the platoon level were well trained, so there were conditions to implement more flexible tactics to contain the Qing army.

Dong Ce continued: "According to the order of the Metropolitan Governor's Office, the main second division will advance westward along Xiangtan, Xinhua and Yuanzhou, and then take the entire Xiangxi. ”

Ning Zhongyi nodded, he is also a soldier, and he can still rely on waterways to transport military supplies in Hunan, and his own division is already good after fighting Xiangxi, if he goes west again and begins to gradually enter the mountains and forests, without strong logistics strength, he can't do it at all.

"The 1st Independent Division, leading the whole division south along Hengyang and Chenzhou, and then eastward into Ganzhou Mansion!"

Gao Hongyi, the commander of the only division, and Deng Fang, the chief of staff, are both new, and it is the time when the spirit is the highest, full of thoughts of making meritorious contributions and expanding the territory, at this time, they are full of heart to go all the way south to Guangzhou, so they got up and said: "Governor, now that the two Guangxi green battalions are almost lost, why don't you let me go all the way south and capture Guangzhou!" ”

Ning Yu sighed softly, he also wanted to clench Liangguang in his palm at this time, but at this time he could only think, "Although Liangguang is empty at this time, there are still Guangzhou Eight Banners, with the strength of the newly formed independent first division, I am afraid it will be difficult to win completely." ”

"What's more, judging from the current situation of our army, our army's current urgent task is still to focus on the decisive battle of Huguang, if your only division goes all the way south, even if you can take Liangguang, it will not be beneficial to the overall situation."

"As long as our army advances eastward and makes a gesture of advancing into the south of the Yangtze River, we are not afraid that he will not chase after him, and then my Wuchang battalion will be a little more stable. This Jiangnan is the land of money and grain for the Qing court, without Huguang and Jiangnan, what will Kangxi Lao'er do to fight with me? ”

Ning Yu said at this time, his eyes burned at everyone, "This will be a very difficult battle, it may take a long time, but this governor always firmly believes that this battle will be a complete victory, and all the kings should work hard to do it." ”

All the generals stood up in unison, their expressions solemn.

"Yes, this battle will be won."

。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。

In the city of Xuling, Yang Lin was lying on the collapse, his face was pale and vain, the 40,000 green battalions in his hands were almost wiped out after the first battle of Changsha, and now the green battalion soldiers he brought into the city of Yuling are less than 4,000 people, and the situation can be described as quite bleak.

Yang Lin thought about his original high spirits, and at this time he felt even more sad in his heart, but what he should face still needs to be faced, and before the court has no will, he can only be helpless.

"Lord Making, it's already unitary time, you haven't touched rice for a whole day, how can you survive this body, let's get up and eat some food." Wang San, the personal guard, cautiously knelt on the ground, and Chen pleaded and advised.

The battle that day was a nightmare for almost everyone, Wang San only knew that he was originally supporting Yang Lin in the rear, and the front line was quite lively, and he was still a little itchy in his heart, thinking about going to the front line to cut off some people's heads and make a few contributions, this court's reward for Chu Shun is quite rich, and the head of an ordinary Chu Shun pawn can be worth five taels of white silver.

But before he could explain his mind to Yang Lin, the green battalion soldiers on the front line collapsed in a roar of heaven and earth, and tens of thousands of people rushed backwards like a tide, and many people were directly trampled to death in it, until the soldiers of the Fu Han army attacked, everyone knew that the general trend had gone.

Later, when Yang Lin saw this defeat, he still wanted to die in the name of Xie Qing, but Wang San knew the military regulations, if the boss died, the guards would be beheaded. Thanks to his cleverness, he took the knife in Yang Lin's hand first, and then stopped Yang Lin with his guards, and then ran all the way back to Zhuzhou, and then ran to Zhuzhou, and then he was afraid that the Fu Han army would continue to chase him, and ran to Yuling.

After bringing Yuling, Yang Lin was bedridden, he didn't think about tea and dinner every day, and he lost weight day by day, but he had words in his mouth for a long time, but over and over again, he was sorry for the emperor.

This is not a hypocrisy, for Yang Lin, if he died in Changsha that day, I am afraid that the emperor will comfort him, but now that he has fled to Yuling, he can't get good on either side, and he doesn't know what sins are waiting for him.

Saying that Cao Cao Cao arrived, suddenly there was a commotion outside, Wang San was dissatisfied, and walked out of the door and shouted: "The adults are lying quietly, you group of killers, don't you want to lose your head?" ”

If it was ordinary, these people would have knelt down and kowtowed to make amends, but today it was strange, several men dressed in brocade clothes walked out of the crowd, these were all fresh faces, which made Wang San feel a little wrong.

"There is a holy oracle, let Yang Lin come out to receive the order!"
