Liu Chang was set up in a large family in Xiaoxing, the original owner was a squire with hundreds of acres of land under the city, and he worked hard in his generation and finally succeeded in taking root in the county.

But when Hongjun entered the county seat of Yixing, he took the initiative to put on a red flag, and at the same time gave up his house in the county seat, and in return, he successfully booked a position as a township official.

For him, it can be said that he has returned to his hometown, and Liu Chang has also entered his house in the county seat, which is a big house with three entrances, in addition to the hall house, there is also a small garden, but the original owner does not take care of the back garden, in fact, it has become a vegetable garden.

But Liu Chang felt that this was good, so the headquarters of the entire Rainbow Army was set up here, and groups of officers and heralds could be seen coming and going from the headquarters all day long.

Now it was even busier, with maps of various scales everywhere at the headquarters, pencils and quills everywhere, and staff officers and logistics officers talking loudly about operational issues.

"Check! The sixty-first regiment reported that they had occupied the county seat of Suyang! ”

The county seat of Coal County belongs to Zhenjiang Prefecture, but the occupation of Suyang County is within the predetermined plan of the Hong Army, and only by occupying the county seat of Spy County can the Hong Army gain a firm foothold in Changzhou Prefecture.

You must know that the third brigade in Suzhou only needs to clean up the green battalion of the Qing army, but the first division bears the pressure of the entire Jiangnan battalion and the monk Wang Shengbao's army, Liu Chang glanced at the map and asked: "The Liyang garrison is a semi-reinforced company, right?" ”

"Half of the Dragon Lance Regiment is a reinforced infantry company, and one reinforced infantry company of the Sixty-first Regiment is in charge of Lin Mengchu, the commander of the second battalion of the sixty-first regiment!"

The reason why the infantry company of the Dragon Lance Regiment was sent to the county seat of Spy County

Mainly based on the consideration of military discipline, the 61st Regiment of Lanxi recruits was not bad, but the military discipline was weaker, so half of the infantry company of the Dragon Lance Regiment, which could be called the first in military discipline in the whole army, was transferred over.

Another combat staff officer added: "There are three hundred and twenty people, two artillery pieces, and reinforcements can be continued!" ”

"Enough!" Liu Chang asked again: "Where is the Third Brigade?" ”

A staff officer replied: "Now there is unclear news that the right flank has captured the city of Suzhou, but it is uncertain what troops have captured it, and whether it has been clearly captured!" ”

Another staff officer told Liu Chang: "Some news says that it was not the Panshi Brigade that captured Suzhou Mansion, but the troops of the captain of the Jiaxing detachment!" ”

"Bao Meiying?" Liu Chang was taken aback, she remembered the beautiful girl: "The captain of the Jiaxing detachment came out so fast? ”

"They have two cavalry companies, and they should advance quickly!"

But Liu Chang sighed: "Two cavalry companies can occupy a famous city like Jiaxing City, it seems that the Qing Dynasty is about to perish!" ”

Although it is uncertain whether this is true or not, if two cavalry companies can capture a big city like Suzhou Fucheng, it can only be said that the Qing Dynasty has run out.

Another person reported the report that had just been obtained: "Commander Feng of the 64th Infantry Regiment reports that the 64th Regiment has been formed and has initially formed combat effectiveness, and in view of the changes in the battle situation, it is recommended that the regiment move to the Huzhou Prefecture." ”

Hearing the news, Liu Chang immediately smiled: "Qu Jie, do you hear it, this is the old cadre of our dragon spear battalion, as soon as the friendly army is in danger, he will rush to the aid of the starry night, and immediately reply to Feng Sixian, I agree!" ”…,

Qu Jie also felt that there was also brilliance, and he smiled: "Yes, the cadres from our dragon lance battalion are all reliable, right, where is Fu Wendao now?" ”

As soon as he heard that Fu "Qihang Qi Feiya" had committed organizational problems, Liu Chang didn't know his whereabouts, and immediately replied: "You should still be the magistrate of Yuhuan County, right?" ”

Qu Jie was willing to fight for his old subordinates: "That's a pity, that's a cadre who can fight, it would be nice if he could be transferred back to our first division!" ”

"Anyway, it's also a county!" Liu Chang didn't reply positively: "Think about this next time, how is the situation in Wujin and Wuxi now?" ”

"Wujin's Qing Demon has already run away, and a maintenance committee has been set up in the local area, so let's see who is more advanced in the city between us and the Qing Demon reinforcements!" Zhou Xiuying replied over there: "But we only have a cavalry platoon over there, and when the soldiers of the Qing Demon come, we have to withdraw!" ”

For the cavalry, which is known for its mobility, of course, it is impossible for them to waste such a meaningless battle, and Zhou Xiuying continued: "The Qing demon in Wuxi is ready to hold on, if our army arrives in the city, how can it be held for several hours!" ”

The comment of guarding for a few hours fully shows that although there is a certain amount of preparation for the defense there, it is still very lax on the whole, so Liu Chang replied: "It seems that the problem this time still lies in the two lakes!" ”

The two lakes, of course, refer to Taihu Lake and Leaky Lake, in fact, there is a Changdang in the north of Leaky Lake, which is also a big lake, but this has nothing to do with the military deployment of the Hongjun for the time being, so Liu Chang and the cadres did not take Changdang into account for the time being.

Taihu Lake has divided the entire Rainbow Army into two branches that cannot meet each other, and Zhuhu Lake continues to divide the Rainbow Army, so a staff officer suggested: "It is better to send an infantry battalion to enter Wujin directly, and use Wujin as the base point to fight against the Qing demons going south, and the main force will take Wuxi directly!" ”

However, Liu Chang believes that this view is detached from the actual battlefield: "This "Baidu Qi Sailing Text" sub-monk king and Shengbao went south, with at least 30,000 horses, and at the same time brought foreign guns and cannons, and used an infantry battalion to resist the enemy, which had a great impact! ”

"The impact is huge," he said. In fact, he was not optimistic, and Qu Jie over there made a suggestion: "Then you can send us a regiment and a battalion over, what a battalion of the Nanxi Brigade can do, our Dragon Lance Battalion can also do!" ”

The first battalion of the first regiment is the famous dragon spear battalion, the real starting capital of the Hong Army, but Liu Chang shook his head: "If the monk king does not attack the martial arts and turns south from the leaky south, what should he do?" We can't leave another regiment and battalion in Yixing. ”

As he was talking, there was already the latest situation over there: "The Qing Demon Monk King, Shengbao, Hu Songlin and other departments have already moved from Danyang to Jintan Nancha!" ”

Qu Jie had already glanced at the map, he had only learned how to read military maps when he went to Shanye Military Academy to study this time, so he blurted out: "Sure enough, it's a leaky lake!" ”

That's right, it was leaked to the leaky lake, even Qu Jie could see it, and the officers present understood the monk's intention: "The inspection point is right!" It's a leaky lake, they want to copy the back road of our army! ”

Some officers suggested: "Why don't we also copy his back road?" ”

"Then we have to abandon the current campaign attempt! The monk king, Shengbao plus the Jiangnan camp, there are at least 30,000 people! ”

"If one of them is annihilated or severely damaged, it will naturally be able to establish the southeast of the country!"

"What do you think?"

Liu Chang immediately stood up and asked Qu Jie, "Fight the monk king, do you have confidence?" ”

"Confidence, absolute confidence!" Qu Jie replied very simply: "Check, you mean!" ”

"Since the monk king is determined to go south along the leaky lake, it is very simple, you have to fight "Set sail and Feiya", I will fight, and the main force of our army will also go northwest along the leaky lake, and fight the victory!"

The entire headquarters stood up at once, and Liu Chang said it very simply, but everyone clearly knew how difficult it was to make such a determination.

The whole room was very lively a moment ago, but now all the officers were silent because of Liu Chang's determination.
