Chapter 671: Continue to attack Xi'an

"Who's screaming." Yang Sichang pretended not to know Xu Lang, and scolded sharply, "All the lords of the court are here to discuss state affairs, who are you, and you dare to speak wildly, talk about military politics in vain, and report your name." ”

Xu Lang's heart immediately had 10,000 grass and mud horses galloping by, but he still suppressed his anger and replied: "Xiaguan is a general of the third grade, Xu Lang of the Yulin Army." ”

"A little general." Yang Sichang raised his hand, "Someone came, blasted out with me." ”

"Slow down, adult." Shi Kefa finally spoke, "General Xu is also worried about state affairs, so my lord should listen to what he has to say first." ”

Yang Wenyue also said: "General Xu, why did you say that you can't withdraw your troops, do you know what will happen if Beijing is in danger?" ”

"Ladies and gentlemen, if we withdraw our troops at this time, the consequences will be unimaginable." Xu Lang repeated what he had just said to Shi Kefa, and finally said, "We can only exterminate the Liukou in one go, and realize Lord Yang's strategy of 'fighting outside must first secure the inside', otherwise my Ming Dynasty will fight on two fronts." As for the safety of the emperor and Beijing, our General Jiang Beiming is now in Beijing, and he can protect the Beijing division without worry. ”

"What a big breath." Yang Sichang sneered, "Your Yulin army has less than 10,000 soldiers in Beijing, and my main force of the Ming Dynasty has all been transferred to Luoyang, and there are less than 100,000 in Beijing, what do you do to ensure the safety of the Beijing division." ”

"Yes, General Xu." Hong Chengchou also asked, "There are 200,000 Tartar soldiers and horses, don't take it lightly." ”

"Ladies and gentlemen, there is something I have to say below." Xu Lang hugged his fists and circled for a week, "The officer training corps in Beijing has already formed an elite special combat team to escort the holy car, and the road from Beijing to Tianjin is now controlled by our Yulin Army, and our two warships have been moored in Tianjin. If Beijing is really in danger, our Yulin army can follow the holy drive south to hunt Nanjing, and nothing goes wrong. ”

All the people in the hall, except for Xia Yang, were stupid, what did Xu Lang mean by this, did he want to move the capital to Nanjing?

Yang Sichang's face became whiter and whiter, and he pointed at Xu Lang's trembling but speechless.

Xu Lang looked at Yang Sichang and said with a smile: "Lord Yang, these preparations were not taken by my Yulin Army, we did so on the orders of Gonggong Cao and Gonggong Wang. ”

Xu Lang still carried Cao Huachun and Wang Chengen out, this matter is not trivial, but Xu Lang can't care about it so much now, and defeating Li Zicheng to recover Xi'an is the first thing. No matter from which aspect, not only can the Ming Dynasty no longer fight on both sides, but Yulin Bay can no longer be so tired of running around, and the principle of three years and three steps must be adhered to. As for what the consequences would be, Xu Lang didn't think about it anymore, and he couldn't think about it anymore.

Yang Sichang slowly put his hand down, and Xu Lang's last sentence shocked him even more. If it was really Cao Huachun and Wang Chengen who asked Yulinwan to do this, then it is difficult to say whether this would be what Chongzhen meant, and whether the emperor himself had the idea of moving the capital. But the emperor has never really trusted Yulin Bay, how could he hand over such an important matter related to the fundamental affairs of the Ming Dynasty to Yulin Bay to do, and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty actually didn't know about it.

Xia Yang understood what Xu Lang meant at this time, walked out of the crowd and said: "Ladies and gentlemen, why is there no intention to transfer us back in the emperor's will, in fact, Beijing can really be foolproof, and the holy will still let us exterminate the Liukou." ”

Yang Sichang didn't dare to make a clear statement: "Ladies and gentlemen, what do you mean? ”

The other few people present did not answer, no one wants to come forward in this situation, if it is really as Xu Lang said, it can not only defend Beijing without loss, but also destroy the rogues, then it is naturally the best. But who dares to play this guarantee, once anything goes wrong, it will be a felony for the nine clans.

Everyone was silent for a while, and Hong Chengchou finally asked: "General Xu, if you follow your plan, how long will it take for us to destroy the Liukou and recover Xi'an, and how long can Beijing hold out?" ”

"Lord Huihong." Xu Lang calculated 1510, "Our three-way soldiers and horses can reach Xi'an in fifteen days at the latest." Xiaguan promised that as soon as General Han Wantao's heavy artillery division arrived, it would not take five days to blast open the gate of Xi'an. In other words, we can take Xi'an in 20 days at most. And after we take Xi'an, a few adults can gather all the cavalry of our army to return to the Beijing division. Xi'an is only 2,000 miles away from Beijing, and at an average speed, it will be possible to return to Beijing in less than half a month. Just now, the lord asked Xia Guan how long Beijing can hold out, and there are currently 10,000 people in Beijing with our Yulin Army, more than 20,000 people from the Shenji Battalion and the Quick Gun Team, and 20,000 people from General Wu Sangui's Guanning Iron Cavalry. Although these 50,000 soldiers and horses are not many in number, they are all elite divisions, and besides, there are quite a few urban defense artillery in Beijing, so it is no problem to hold out for two months. ”

Hong Chengchou thought about Xu Lang's words, and Xu Lang said again: "Also, my lords, twenty warships of my Yulin Army Combined Fleet have left for Lushun, and they will launch an offensive against Shengjing from Lushun. General Zheng Zhilong will also send warships to attack North Korea, the Tatars will never fall in love with war, Beijing is in danger, but Shengjing is also in danger. ”

"Did Lushun attack Shengjing?" Hong Chengchou and Yang Sichang asked in unison, the two of them really didn't know about it.

"Back to my lord, it's true." Xu Lang and Xia Yang also replied in unison.

"Lord Yang, what do you think?" Hong Chengchou's tone clearly showed that he agreed with Xu Lang's plan.

Yang Sichang decided to push this matter to Hong Chengchou, and naturally he had his own credit for winning the battle, in case he lost, let Hong Chengchou take the blame: "Since Lord Hong also means this, then the official also agrees." Everything is decided by Lord Hong, and this official will stick to Luoyang to suppress the battle for you. ”

Hong Chengchou secretly cursed in his heart, but he didn't refuse: "Thank you, Lord Yang." ”

"Generals." Hong Chengchou's face became serious, "All departments make all preparations, let's start early tomorrow morning, and we must arrive in Xi'an within 15 days." Send someone to inform Lord Lu and General Qin, let them approach in the direction of Xi'an, and gather under the city of Xi'an half a month later. ”

Xu Lang finally let go of the snacks, and wrote a letter to Jiang Beiming and Han Wantao overnight, and asked the people in the guard squad to send them out quickly. He discussed it with Xia Yang and decided to follow Shi Kefa to Xi'an all the time. On the one hand, Xu Lang was worried about any changes in Yang Sichang, and on the other hand, he was also worried about the safety of him, Xia Yang and Gao Chen, and he could be safer with Shi Kefa.

When Jiang Beiming received Xu Lang's letter, Beijing was under fire. Huang Taiji's Eight Banners did not come to attack the city, but were stationed far away, and it was Tao Min's new Korean army that attacked Beijing. The 140,000 troops advanced smoothly to the city of Beijing without much effort, and Tao Min commanded the new Korean army to besiege the city on three sides, but let go of Yongdingmen in the south.

The fierce battle of the day temporarily subsided, and Zhang Hai returned to the officer training regiment with a tired face: "Beiming, today is the most intense day, Tao Min is crazy again." ”

"You rest first, Xu Lang has a letter." Jiang Beiming handed Xu Lang's letter to Zhang Hai, "He now said that he has mobilized Hong Chengchou and Yang Sichang to attack Xi'an with all their might. Tao Min must also know the news, so he must seize this opportunity to take Beijing. ”

"Beiming, I still haven't figured it out." After reading Xu Lang's letter, Zhang Hai asked, "Our Yongding Gate in the south is the weakest defense, but Tao Min has never gone there, he shouldn't know that it is the best place to fight." ”

"Yes, I didn't understand it before, but after reading Xu Lang's letter, I understood." Jiang Beiming smiled, "Tao Min is likely to think of it with us." ”

"Beiming, what do you mean, why did you understand it after reading Xu Lang's letter." Zhang Hai picked up Xu Lang's letter and read it several times, "Why didn't I understand what he said in his letter?" ”

Xu Lang said that the attack on Xi'an should be surrounded by three and one, leaving a direction for Li Zicheng to run. Tao Min is the same, if we besiege the city on all sides, we can only defend it if we have no way out, and if we let go of the side, we will have the idea of retreating. Now Tao Min doesn't want to completely turn his face with Huang Taiji, so it is good for him to keep Chongzhen. But he definitely wants to conquer Beijing this time to expand his power, so I think he also wants to force Chongzhen to move the capital to Nanjing, which is the reason why he does not attack Yongdingmen. ”

Zhang Hai scratched his head: "This TM is too complicated, you should bother with your brains, I just have to fight." By the way, Beiming, is there any problem with Pan Xuezhong? ”

"Everything works." Jiang Beiming said, "And I also informed Ge Tao that all the people in Yulin Bay should make all preparations, and if there is danger, we will go together." ”

The two of them were talking, and Xiao Junzhe walked in: "Sir, Chen Xinjia sent someone to invite the two chiefs over." ”

"What's going to happen to him at this late hour." Zhang Hai muttered and smiled at Xiao Junzhe, "Junzhe, you have been promoted to captain officer, remember your brother Zhang's love, and when you return to Yulin Bay, let your parents thank me well, I promoted you." ”

"Hmph, what else do you say?" Xiao Junzhe snorted very dissatisfied, "I thought that the guard company was very good, but now I can't go anywhere except stay in the officer training regiment." Also captain, what's the use of being promoted, I want to go to war. Uncle Xu said at the beginning that only after experiencing the smoke of the battlefield, only when he really dared to kill would he become a real man. ”

Zhang Hai pointed at Xiao Junzhe and said, "This is what Xu Lang told you?" How can he teach you like that, you wait for me to go back and settle accounts with him. Homicide? Is it so easy to kill someone, how can you just want to kill at a young age. ”

"You two stop arguing." Jiang Beiming said lightly, then raised his head and asked, "Junzhe, do you really want to go to the front line?" ”

Xiao Junzhe was a little excited when he heard Jiang Beiming ask this, and "snapped" and stood upright: "Sir, my subordinates really want to go to the front line, and my subordinates need to be tempered by blood and fire." ”

Jiang Beiming talked about it again and ordered: "Zhang Hai, let Junzhe follow you to the city wall tomorrow." ”

"Thank you, Uncle Jiang." Xiao Junzhe was so excited that he forgot to call the commander.

"Wait, wait." Zhang Hai waved his hand again and again, "Beiming, let's not play like this, you don't know how dangerous it is on the city wall." ”

Jiang Beiming didn't explain too much: "Let's go, I have to go to see Chen Xinjia, I'll tell you on the way." ”

On the way to see Chen Xinjia, Jiang Beiming explained to Zhang Hai in detail why Xiao Junzhe wanted to go to the city wall. Jiang Beiming has not returned to Yulin Bay many years, but every time he returns to Yulin Bay, he always feels that Yulin Bay is too different from the outside world. If the outside world is a rain of bullets, then Yulin Bay is a paradise of singing and dancing. This is also good or bad, of course, the advantages are obvious, but the disadvantages are equally obvious, that is, the traversers in Yulin Bay, and even some of the military traversers who have been in Yulin Bay for a long time, feel that the world is peaceful, as if the war has nothing to do with them. When Xiao Junzhe wanted to follow Xu Lang to Vietnam, his parents did not hesitate to lock him up at home and not allow him to go. And this time, when he followed Xu Lang to Beijing, his parents didn't have much opposition. Xu Lang actually consulted Xiao Junzhe's parents, and the two of them felt that Beijing was at the feet of the Son of Heaven after all, and what danger could there be, not to mention that there were Jiang Beiming in Beijing and people from the Ministry of Security, so they readily agreed to their son's request.

But Jiang Beiming felt that this was not good, this was very bad. Jiang Beiming always believed in a sentence, for soldiers, there is only a time of war and preparation for war, and there will never be a time of peace.

Xiao Junzhe only saw wounded soldiers in Vietnam last time and didn't see what the real battlefield was like, so Jiang Beiming decided to let him see the real blood and dead people this time. However, Jiang Beiming also repeatedly explained to Zhang Hai that he was looking for someone to protect Xiao Junzhe's safety, and there must be no accidents, otherwise his parents would kill two people.
