Puyang, the headquarters of the Northern Expeditionary Army, dozens of scouts in gear gathered in the marching tent. There were only a few chairs in the spacious tent, and a few solemn-looking generals were sitting, and everyone was waiting for Huo Zizhen to promulgate the plan to cross the river.

Huo Zizhen and the three military advisers approved it again in the partial account, and finally set two sets of battle plans, and strode towards the camp tent.

Seeing that the marshal entered the account, all the generals and schools were shocked and prepared to record.

Huo Zizhen walked to the sand table, a secretary Lang sent the baton to him, and another secretary Lang stood behind Huo Shuai.

Huo Zizhen shook her shoulders and stepped back, and the secretary Lang behind her was quick and caught it immediately.

Only then did he reach out and take the baton.

The baton pointed to Hedong, and Huo Shuai's sonorous voice immediately sounded: "Ordered the gods to guide the army Wang Cao Tianbu, Zhen Badao Department, and Hedong Jiedu envoy Fang Tianhua Department to send troops from Taiyuan Mansion to feint to attack Hengzhou." Tell them that I don't care when I will leave, but on the first day of the fifth month, a general attack must be launched on Hengzhou. Remind them that the feint attack is not perfunctory, at least take down Luquan for me first. If possible, it is better to take Hengzhou. ”

The baton moved downward, and said: "Ordered the Shen Ce Army Shi to enter the Chong Division, march from Zezhou, and attack Gongcheng, Xinxiang, Jixian, and Weizhou." Tell him that on the first day of the fifth month, at least two cities will be taken. He has 10,000 elite soldiers under his command to deal with 3,000 men and horses in the enemy's military district, and I don't think he will be able to do it. ”

The baton moved to the area of the Yellow River and said: "When the Shence Army sends troops from the east of the river to attack Hengzhou and Weizhou, it will inevitably attract enemy support, and our Flying Tiger Army will start the first batch of river crossings on the second day of the fifth month. Huang Ying's subordinates crossed the river from Huazhou, and after the successful crossing of the river, no matter how many men and horses were left, they directly marched to Liyang. The recruit division of the Huo Feng Division of the New Seventh Army of the Flying Tiger Army will follow up after Huang Ying's troops cross the river. ”

"The recruit division of the Cen Staff Department set off from Weinan, and waited for an hour after Huang Ying began to cross the river, taking advantage of the chaos to cross the river, and after crossing the river, echoed Huang Ying. If you are also blocked, resist where you are and wait for reinforcements. ”

"Chen Sin's Department, when he was the second son in early May, crossed the river from Puyang, and after crossing the river, he directly marched to Linhuang. The recruit division of the Wanlin Department followed up. ”

"Hong Mingshanbu, when he was the second son in the first month of May, crossed the river from Yanggu, and after crossing the river, attacked Chaocheng or Shen County. Xu Lan's recruit division followed up. ”

"Chen Sin and Hong Mingshan, if they find that the adjacent river-crossing troops are blocked from crossing the river, they will abandon the plan to march and rescue the friendly forces first, and then implement the original plan."

"At this time, we still have one recruit division left in the Flying Tiger Army, stay in Puyang, and equip and order."

The baton moved to the east again, and said: "Ordered the Xiao Han Department of the Tiger Ben Army, on the first day of May, to cross the river from Jeju, he will inevitably be stubbornly blocked by the enemy's Bozhou garrison along the way, if the forced crossing fails, he will change to a feint, the casualties are too large, he can be withdrawn, and ask the Jufan Division to follow up." Prevent enemy troops from crossing the river back. ”

"Ordered the Tiger Ben Army Zhang Han Mountain Division, from Zhu A to cross the river, he should not encounter a strong enemy along the way, and asked him to cross the river successfully, gallop to the aid of Xiao Han. If Xiao Han's troops have withdrawn, he will stand by and wait for the news that Xiao Fei's troops have smuggled from the swamp, and if the smuggling is successful, the two armies will attack Bozhou together, giving Xiao Han's troops a second chance to cross the river. ”

After saying this, Huo Shuai's gaze became more solemn, and the baton hit Puyang heavily, and said: "On the second day of the fifth month, I and Deputy Marshal Zhang Zhikui led the Xuanjia Army Zhang Yunlong, Cao Sheng, Gongsun Xiong, and Zhang Chong's recruit division and the Flying Tiger Army's Xu Lan recruit division to cross the river together. After crossing the river, go straight to Xiangzhou! ”

After saying this, Huo Zizhen seemed to be relieved, and finally the baton tapped lightly on the easternmost side of the sand table, and said: "Command the new division of the Tang Qi Division of the Divine Army, and cross the river at the beginning of May." After crossing the river, go straight to Dizhou. There are only 2,000 male soldiers in Dizhou, if she can't take this, let her go home and get married! ”

The crowd burst into laughter.

Subsequently, Huo Zizhen also talked about the second set of battle plans,

Compared to the first set of operational plans, the second set of plans was more detailed. A variety of possible factors are taken into account. For example, if one unit cannot cross the river at all, how should other troops respond?

He wrote dozens of articles, listing dozens of possibilities that could occur in the battle of crossing the river, and wrote down countermeasures one by one.

Distribute the pre-copied documents to the scouts and convey them quickly.

——

On April 20, Tang Qi received Huo Zizhen's order.

Tang Qi was wearing soft armor, sitting in the military tent, repeatedly considering the military strategy, and said with a smile: "It seems that that scholar is really not a soldier on paper, Hu Orchid, go and invite that sour show to me." ”

"Yes!"

Nalan Xin, as the champion of the male Jia Guowen list, is just a talent in Tang Qi's opinion. It may be a bit too much to say this, but compared with the scale of their male Jia's exams compared to Da Liang, they are at most Gongshi, which has not wronged him, right?

A young man holding a pen and a stick talked endlessly in front of Tang Qi, and it didn't take long for Tang Qi to lose patience.

Many of the strategic ideas in his mouth did not match the concept in Tang Qi's heart, and Tang Qi also had a worry in his heart - is this kid a spy deliberately planted by the enemy army into our army? If so, if I had listened to his plan, would I have fallen for the enemy's tricks?

"General Tang is above, Nalan Xin is polite."

Nalan Xin had been staring at him all the time. Tang Qi handed over this task to Tang Yuan, and Tang Yuan came up with an idea, he said: In the future, he simply said that he was a beggar, and I was found by the river in the middle of the night, so he joined the army. Although the surname Nalan is a bit eye-catching, there are also more than a dozen people from Hu people in our military camp. This is not surprising. Tang Qi took Tang Yuan's suggestion.

Now, Nalan Xin has become Tang Yuan's servant, wherever Tang Yuan goes, he must follow, and he is not allowed to leave a step. Otherwise, it will be treated as a deserter. Tang Yuan deliberately tried him a few times, but he seemed very stable, and there was no sign of running away. - But Tang Yuan was still not at ease with him, and he did not let his guard down for a moment.

Just before Tang Qi called him, he was holding a small flag to command and train cavalry instead of Tang Yuan, which was a simple and boring job, but he seemed full of energy. When waving the small flag, even the head shook with it, and it looked as if the whole body was struggling.

And Tang Yuan was on the side and Bai Ke was learning to hook and connect guns.

Tang Yuan's marksmanship has improved rapidly, and even Bai Ke has no good way to take him now. However, on the whole, Bai Ke's Fang Tian painting halberd is superior. Whenever Tang Yuan was a little discouraged, Bai Ke would say: You have only been practicing for a few months, and I have been practicing for nearly twenty years. However, the improvement of martial arts is divided into the process of "from slow to fast" and "from fast to slow", these two processes together, generally will not exceed half a year, after half a year, no matter how hard you practice, you will not improve too much. So, let's try again in half a year, and then it's too late for you to be discouraged.

"Nalan Xin, your prediction is accurate."

Tang Qi threw the white paper "Northern Expeditionary Military Strategy" in front of Nalan Xin, Nalan Xin hurriedly lowered his body to pick it up, and when he lowered his body, Nalan Xin was a little puzzled, why did this high-spirited general treat military aircraft so carelessly?

Although his heart was full of suspicions, he didn't ask anything.

Quickly flipped through it, read half of it, he didn't read it, closed the booklet, and respectfully handed it to Hu Lanhua. Then put the orchid on the table in front of Qi Qi.

"Congratulations to the general, this battle will definitely be a miracle."
