Fu Deming was confused by Xiao Tianjian at this time, so he hurriedly turned around and followed Xiao Tianjian to him and asked: "Please forgive me for being humble and rude, now that we are doing well in Shanxi, why did the general remember that he was going to Henan?" You must know that now Lu Xiangsheng Lu is a madman sitting in Henan, the Tianxiong Army under his command has almost beaten the righteous army entrenched in Henan for the past year, and now Zhang Xianzhong ran to the junction of Huguang and Sichuan, Gao Yingxiang, Li Zicheng, Luo Rucai, and Lao Huihui all ran back to Shaanxi, and Henan is probably not easy to gain a foothold now!

And now Shanxi is the year of chaos, and we are now strong and strong, so why not stay in Shanxi and use soldiers? We can take advantage of this opportunity to first defeat Lu'an Mansion, and then directly use troops against Jiangzhou, as long as Jiangzhou is defeated, we can control the entire southeast of Shanxi in our hands, and we can go straight to Taiyuan to the north!

Right now, Jiannu is also entering the customs again to attack the area around the Jingshi, and the imperial court can't spare its hands to deal with us! Why did the general not take this good situation and go to Henan? ”

Looking at Fu Deming's eager expression, Xiao Tianjian's face gradually cooled, and he shook his head at Fu Deming and said, "Does Mr. Fu want me to cooperate with Jiannu and develop towards the north?" ”

Fu Deming showed a slightly embarrassed look on his face, and hurriedly explained: "Of course, the humble position does not mean that the general should cooperate with the development of Jiannu to the north, but the current situation is like this, it is the time when Shanxi is empty and the imperial court is at a loss, so the humble position will say so. ”

Xiao Tianjian shook his head and stood up and said: "Mr. Fu, I'm afraid it's too simple, Gao Yingxiang has been defeated by the government and captured by the official army, and he will be sent to Beijing to be handed over to the emperor in the near future!"

And all the righteous armies are now being beaten by the government everywhere, and if we use troops in Shanxi on a large scale now, Hong Chengchou will never sit idly by!

In addition, there is another news, you may not know, Lu Xiangsheng is about to be transferred to Shanxi, Governor Xuanda, Shanxi military affairs, in essence, the imperial court wants Lu Xiangsheng to lead his troops to deal with the Jiannu Tartars!

Although we are enemies of the imperial court, but after all, we are all Han Chinese, and now the Emperor Taiji of Jiannu has been called the emperor outside the Guan, renamed the Qing Dynasty! Sooner or later, Jiannu will become the enemy of all our Han Chinese!

Although what Mr. said is right, it is a good time for us to take Lu'an Mansion and Jiangzhou at the moment, but in this way, it is equivalent to doing Jiannu a great favor, and the imperial court has no way to take Jiannu in the north, once we do it again, it is bound to let the imperial court divide troops to deal with us, so that we are equivalent to harming the people of the entire North Zhili!

To put it mildly, we and the government are fighting with our own families, and after all, it is a civil war between us Han people, but for Jiannu, they are our common enemies, and I will not do anything to cooperate with Jiannu now!

Although Lu Xiangsheng is a court official, this person is a good official, since he is coming to Shanxi, then I will give him a face, and I will not be an enemy of him in Shanxi!

Mr. Fu, don't be surprised, I'm not afraid of that Lu Xiangsheng, but Henan is a rare opportunity for us right now! After Lu Xiangsheng's encirclement and suppression of the rebels from all walks of life in Henan for more than a year, the rebels from all walks of life in Henan have basically fled from Henan, and now there is basically a power vacuum over there, whether it is the official army or the rebel troops from all walks of life are either gathered in Shaanxi, or gathered in Huguang, Sichuan and the two Huai areas, and Henan is now very weak on all sides, it is a good time for us to grab territory!

If we want to continue to grow in the next step, then Henan is the place we must occupy, the north has basically been eroded now, coupled with the drought in the north for many years, we can get through this spring drought this time, but also some luck ingredients.

If our Xingtian Army wants to expand in the future, we must use Henan as a springboard to fight to Huguang, only by occupying Huguang, can we obtain sufficient grain and material supplies, we can not only limit our eyes to the small Shanxi area, we must take a longer view!

So with such a good opportunity, if we don't go to Henan, when will we wait? Does Mr. Fu understand my thoughts now? ”

Xiao Tianjian and Pan brought out the plan he had considered in the past few days.

After Fu Deming heard Xiao Tianjian's words, he couldn't help but be surprised, after such a year or two, he almost forgot what he and Xiao Tianjian talked about about competing for the world, and now because after laying such a territory, he began to be a little content with the status quo, so much so that he forgot to look at the longer term.

What he didn't expect was that Xiao Tianjian was obviously much more long-term than him, and now he had begun to plan for the future, and faintly, he had already pointed the finger at Jiannu Tartar.

So he bowed down and said to Xiao Tianjian with a guilty face: "It turns out that the general has actually thought so far, and he is ashamed of his position!" What the general said is that although we are against the imperial court, Jiannu is still a big trouble for our Han people after all, since Jiannu is now entering the prison, then we can't say anything to help the government with this!

In this way, the lowly official completely agrees with the general's arrangement, but if the general wants to go south to Henan, will he go with only our current strength? After all, we have no foundation in Henan, and the general's trip can be said to be a lone army, with only such a force, I am afraid it is not enough to deal with the officers and troops in Henan, and I feel that it is a bit risky to enter Henan so quickly! ”

Xiao Tianjian smiled and said, "Wealth is in danger!" Since we have chosen this path, it is equivalent to pinning our heads to the waistband of our trousers! But you don't have to worry, now after the whole training in the next half year, although we don't have many troops, but they are all elite soldiers, it's not that I look down on those officers and soldiers in Henan, don't look at them to deal with ordinary rebels, but against us, I believe they can not eat and walk!

Henan is very large, there is enough space for us to maneuver, especially in the western part of Henan, which is similar to our current area, the mountains and ravines are very suitable for us to go back and forth, as long as I give me another two years, I believe that with the strength of our Xingtian Army, we should be able to lay down another piece of our territory in the western part of Henan!

As for the troops, you don't have to worry, this time I will bring more manpower! The key is that after I led my troops to leave here, our territory, this place is our foundation, at present, our tents, armor, grain and materials all rely on this side to replenish, no matter what, there can be no problems here, otherwise we will become rootless again, and will be beaten back to the point of two years ago! ”

Since Fu Deming had accepted Xiao Tianjian's huge plan, he began to think about the details for Xiao Tianjian.

After sitting down and thinking for a while, Fu Deming said to Xiao Tianjian: "If the general has made up his mind, then the general can rest assured about the affairs here, after the general leads his troops to leave this time, he is willing to stay here and do a good job of logistics supply for the general!" As long as the general leaves a battalion of soldiers and horses, plus the township barracks all over here, he thinks that even if Lu Xiangsheng leads his Tianxiong army to find trouble with us, we are not afraid to fight him, but I don't know who the general will leave here, and I will definitely cooperate with him to ensure that nothing happens on our side! ”

Xiao Tianjian stood up and walked to the door, looking at the sky outside: "There is a gentleman here to deal with civil affairs, I have nothing to worry about!" And I will keep my wife here, and she will cooperate with Mr. Hao in terms of finances, as for who will stay in charge of the military affairs here, let's wait a few days! ……”
