For Hunan, the Fu Han army has always been eyeing the tiger, the so-called Huguang and Huguang, how can it be called wide without Hunan? Although today's Fu Han Army is almost entirely based in Hubei, it still lacks a lot in terms of strategic depth.

And Hunan, the temptation of the Han army is simply unimaginable, especially the occupied Hunan, the chess game of the whole south is different, continue to go south can take Liangguang, go west can go straight to Sichuan, go east can also occupy Jianghuai, along the south can attack Anqing Jiangning.

In other words, at this point, it is the Han army that really occupies the initiative, and the Qing court must mobilize heavy troops to achieve encirclement, pursuit, interception, and strict defense, but where does the Qing court come from the heavy troops at present? And how to talk about defending everywhere? At this point, the original plan of Ning Yu can be carried out.

Looking at this vast world, Ning Yu exhaled lightly and said with a smile: "From today onwards, our army will enter a new situation. These words made everyone's hearts go, and they finally kept the clouds open and saw the moon.

"Since the White Lotus Sect is in the north to block the Qing army from the direction of Henan, our army can take the initiative to attack, and take advantage of the fact that the main force of the Qing army has not yet been assembled, especially before the Eight Banners Firearms Battalion of the Beijing Division and the horse team of Shaanxi and Gansu have not yet arrived, first take Hunan, and then attack Jiangxi to threaten the Qing army Jiangnan."

For this strategy, Ning Yu has sufficient considerations, in the territory of the Qing court at this time, what Yunnan, Guizhou, Guangxi, Guangdong, all belong to the outside of the country, it is insignificant, if you want to hurt the Qing court in the south, you must start from two directions, one is Huguang, which is related to the food of the Qing court, and the other is Jiangnan, which is related to the money of the Qing court.

Now that Huguang has been taken, as long as Jiangnan is taken again, the dragon vein of the Qing court will basically be broken. No one can return to heaven, and history has also proved that after the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom uprising, it took Jiangnan of the Qing court, but did not take Huguang, so that a group of Hunan people came out and forcibly defeated the general trend of the Tianping Heavenly Kingdom.

Although it is said that the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom itself was also killed, it can also be seen from this point that the reason why Huguang was well-connected at that time was also related to Huguang's own resources, so in this battle, the Fu Han army must not lose.

Cui Wancai also stood up, expressed his approval, and said: "We must fight quickly to take Hunan, otherwise once it lasts against our army, I am afraid that the Qing troops in Jiangxi, Anhui, Guangzhou, and Sichuan will rush over, and the situation of our army will be more complicated at that time." ”

The total number of green battalions in the south is more than 200,000 people, and there are at least 150,000 or so green battalions scattered all over the country.

Although Ning Yu didn't want to admit it, he had to say that the current state of the Fu Han army was not much different from the initial Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and the Qing court was afraid that the Qing court would sacrifice the regimental training trick in advance, and then the battle would be troublesome.

Ning Yu took over the conversation again, and pointed his finger in the direction of Yuezhou, "The focus of this battle is the 20,000 Qing troops in Yuezhou, I will personally lead the first division to destroy it here, and the deputy envoy of Ning Shu led the second division from Yichang to the south, capturing Changde and other places along the way, and waiting for the opportunity to cut off the back road of the defenders of Yuezhou." ”

At this time, Ning Zhongyi had already been made up as a privy deputy envoy, and he said softly: "Major General, I'm afraid that this place in Changde and other places in Xuzhou is very empty, and the Qing army in Yuezhou is ready for battle at this time, why don't we change them?" The meaning of these words is that the Qing troops in other places are not enough for him to fight.

Ning Yu shook his head slightly, and then said: "We are now racing against the Qing army to see if they destroy the White Lotus Sect first, or if we take Huguang first, so you need to attack quickly in this battle, and the task is not as easy as you think." As for the Qing army in Yuezhou, it is not difficult for me to deal with them. ”

Joke, 10,000 well-equipped modern musketeers are not too easy to fight 20,000 weak Qing troops.

Ning Zhongyuan also nodded, pointed his finger at the map, and said: "If we can seize the time to take Changsha, then the situation of our army will be completely opened, and then Kangxi Lao'er is afraid that he will be in a hurry." ”

As long as I think that after all the Huguang is occupied, a large number of talents and money will pour into the pockets of the Fu Han army, it makes everyone feel a dry mouth, although everyone abandons their family and business to do a big deal against the Qing Dynasty, but it is not a pure righteous act, this wealth is the most important thing, if you take Huguang, and then go down to the south of the Yangtze River, it is simply a sea of wealth.

Ning Yu pointed to the provinces around Hubei and drew a circle, looked at Ning Zhongyuan and the others, and said solemnly: "Even if there is the White Lotus Sect, at most it will be to drag the green battalion in Henan, and the green battalion of these other provinces will probably attack Hubei, if you add the Eight Banners Firearms Battalion in the capital and the horse team in Shaanxi and Gansu, this battle still needs to be commanded by the Metropolitan Governor!" ”

"When our army is based on Huguang and goes down the river to Anqing, I am afraid that these green battalions will not be able to sit still, if they can hit Jiangning, then the crisis in Hubei will be solved, and our army will also usher in a new situation."

The current situation, for the Fu Han Army, is like taking the last dollar to participate in the game, it really can't lose, and it will be over if it loses one game, and it has no ability to bear losses and risks. Only after the collapse of this Green Battalion offensive will there be no lower hand in the south, and sooner or later it will be able to receive the pocket of the Fu Han army.

Ning Zhongyuan also nodded slightly, this strategy was originally agreed by him, he was not worried about himself, but for Ning Yu, he couldn't help but worry about the relationship between father and son, it was really that before this, no one dared to come up with such a bold tactic like Ning Yu.

"Six divisions and ten regiments of our army, totaling 65,000 people, you only took 20,000 people, but left me with 45,000 people, what do I have to worry about? If the Qing court dares to come again, just fight back. Ning Zhongyuan was relaxed, he was from the Qing army, so he was naturally not afraid of the Qing army.

Yue Lingfeng, the newly appointed deputy commander of the Second Garrison Division, and Xu Mingyuan, chief of staff of the Third Garrison Division, glanced at each other, and saw a trace of horror in the eyes of the other party.

What shocked them was the ambition of the current Fu Han Army, daring to deal with at least 100,000 or more Green Battalion troops with 40,000 newly trained troops. At least in the former Green Camp, no one had such courage.

Yue Lingfeng was a little restrained, and said softly: "Metropolitan Governor, if the Qing army comes to attack, what strategy should our army use to deal with it?" "As the so-called strategizing is thousands of miles away, the temple can determine the success or failure of a war, so it is natural to ask clearly.

Xu Mingyuan also nodded slightly, now that they have voted for the Fu Han army, they naturally hope that the Fu Han army will become more and more prosperous, if the Fu Han army is defeated, the result of a rebel general like them will only be worse, and he can't help but be careful.
