Chapter 157: Surprise Attack
After Ning Yu thought of this, he immediately asked Du Du to wake up the other attendants, and then one order after another was issued by Ning Yu.
"The whole army should pay attention to preparing for battle, let the only division speed up the pace and rush to Fuzhou to converge, it must be fast!"
"Also, call everyone else in the Governor's Mansion up, we have to strangle Fu Erdan's thoughts!"
The attendants memorized Ning Yu's order attentively, and then hurried out of the camp one by one to inform the others to go.
Ning Yu was a little worried in his heart, he walked out of the camp tent and looked at the sky, the thunder gradually lowered, but there were dark clouds, and a drop of water dripped on Ning Yu's face, slightly cold.
Dong Ce's camp tent was next to the handsome tent, not far away, his face was a little solemn, he walked up to Ning Yu and whispered: "Metropolitan Governor, it's a little cold this day, it's still the camp tent first, and the bones of the body are tight." ”
Ning Yu tapped his finger upward, with a look of worry on his face, "If this rain falls, the road will definitely be muddy, and our army has a lot of artillery, I'm afraid that this movement along the way will be affected." If at this time, no trace of Vordan has been found, then our army will be greatly disadvantaged. ”
Dong Ce looked at the dark night sky, a few drops of rain hit his face, this scene seemed familiar, those blood and water, as if intertwined in front of him.
"Governor, you're saying that Voerdan will take advantage of this opportunity to attack?"
Ning Yu didn't answer, seeing that the other personnel of the Governor's Mansion were gradually gathered, he walked towards the tent, he didn't have any anxiety on his face, but his steps were slightly faster.
As soon as he entered the big tent, it was pouring rain outside, Ning Yu couldn't help but look back, but the dense rain curtain cut off Ning Yu's sight for a moment, and only a white expanse was left between the heaven and the earth.
A large sand table is placed in the center of the big tent, and the terrain design on it is very detailed, and it is also dotted with some lush greenery, which is the rough terrain of the whole Jiangxi and Hubei. In the mountains and rivers, there are also a little red, red, blue and blue flags, representing the Han army and the Qing army.
"Qianqiu, tell the big guy about Voerdan's news." Ning Yu walked to the sand table with his hands in his hands, looking at the flag above and thinking about something.
Ning Qianqiu, as the head of the Military Intelligence Department, has now experienced the tempering of multiple battles, and the whole person is much darker and thinner, but he is also more capable, he picked up the flag representing the Qing army, planted it in De'an Mansion, and said in a condensed voice: "The latest news I got is that Fu Erdan's 60,000 troops were stationed in De'an three days ago, and Fu Erdan sent rangers to clear the army for twenty miles, and our army sentry could not approach. ”
"According to the normal marching route, Fu Erdan should go north along the De'an Road, at most five days, he can reach Jiujiang City, if there is no news from Jiujiang, it means that Fu Erdan will choose to take a detour and not pass through Jiujiang."
Ning Yu threw out his thoughts directly, and at the same time, he was also making a basic introduction to the situation this time.
After everyone listened, they began to discuss in front of the sand table, which is also Ning Yu's habit before every war, so that the big guys can talk about their thoughts, no matter how absurd they are, this is also to avoid thinking about the generals, and concentrate everyone's thoughts as much as possible to reduce the occurrence of mistakes.
Dong Ce thought for a while, he liked to substitute himself into the identity of the enemy general before every battle, so as to think about some of the other party's decisions, and suddenly a thought germinated from his mind, but the more he thought about it, the more amazing it became, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was very likely.
"The opportunity to win this battle is no longer in Jiujiang, but in Wuchang. Jiujiang Jiancheng is firmly defended, and 20,000 heavy troops are stationed, and his 60,000 army will not be able to conquer it for a while and a half. ”
Qian Ying clasped his fists and saluted, and now with the increase in his suggestions within the Fu Han Army, his status has gradually increased, but he has always been steady and cautious, "In General Dong's opinion, where will Fu Erdan take a detour?" Everyone else also stopped the discussion and waited for Dong Ce to speak.
Dong Ce's fingers crossed De'an, then crossed Jiugong Mountain, and then paddled until he was through the mountain, and then he gently went down and said solemnly: "If I am Fu Erdan, I can send an elite army to pass through the trail in the Mufu Mountain and occupy Tongshan, and then I can go north to capture Xianning, and then go all the way up, but I can reach Wuchang in two days." ”
Deputy division commander Zheng Guangguo retorted: "Not to mention anything else, I grew up here since I was a child, and I also know some small roads, all of which are difficult and dangerous places, and the Mufu Mountain runs through a hundred miles, even if you can find a small road, now that the rainy road is slippery, how can the army march?" ”
"Makufu Mountain is not continuous all the way, there are some canyon trails in the middle, although it is difficult for the army to pass, but it is not difficult for an elite division, it is the so-called surprise attack is unprepared, if this elite really arrives at Tongshan, from Tongshan to Wuchang there will be no one to defend!"
Dong Ce calmly refuted what Zheng Guangguo said, he likes to substitute himself into the identity of the enemy general before every battle, so as to think about some of the other party's decisions, but from this aspect, the more he thinks about it, the more amazing it becomes, and the more he thinks about it, the more he feels that it is very likely.
Everyone couldn't help but nod when they heard this, and Qian Ying asked again: "But even so, the scale of this partial division must not be large, I'm afraid it will only be 10,000 people at most, and it seems that it is not easy to defeat Wuchang with these 10,000 people." ”
Ning Yu coughed lightly, and said in a condensed voice: "You may not know, just more than half a month ago, the army of the northern front led by Kangxi was storming the three passes of Yiyang, although there was a garrison division guarding the three passes, but after all, the troops had to be guarded in the three passes, and the troops had been greatly dispersed, if there was a crisis situation in the three passes, my father would definitely send a part of the defenders of Wuchang to reinforcements." ”
"What does the metropolitan governor mean is that this Fu Erdan may attack Tongshan this time, not because of a desperate gamble, but because he intends to go hand in hand with Emperor Kangxi in the south and in the north, so as to achieve the purpose of mobilizing our army?"
Ning Yu nodded lightly, and then sighed lightly, he felt that he had underestimated Kangxi a little, and he also underestimated Fu Erdan, the current situation is very complicated, but it is simple and simple, both sides are pulling the battle line, Ning Yu needs to pull the Qing army in the east, so that it cannot participate in the battlefield in Huguang.
And Fu Erdan did the opposite, in the name of attacking Jiujiang, a surprise attack on Tongshan, so as to Ningyu and even the entire army of the Fu Han army, and the Fu Han army because most of the troops have been concentrated on the front line, it is difficult to achieve reinforcements, then the entire Fu Han army will be very passive.
Either choose to give up all the current gains and return to the north, or prepare to accept the fall of Wuchang, which has now become a choice for Fu Erdan to Ning Yu, just such a move has changed the entire current situation.
"Don't think about anything else, the whole army is ready to go north with me, since Fu Erdan has already commanded my army, if he doesn't move, I'm really sorry for his good intentions."
Ning Yu's finger pointed at Nanchang, and then with a slight stroke, he moved to Anqing, which has become essentially the logistics transfer place of the Qing army and the key point of the entire Qing army in the east.
"In addition, let the military intelligence department use a secret channel to send a warning message to Wuchang, and pay attention to sending it in three parts. Let Wuchang pay attention to Jianchang and the direction of Xingguo, the Qing army is likely to attack Wuchang by bypassing Jiujiang through a surprise attack! ”
