Shandong Governor's Palace

Military Meeting

The news of Fang Yuan's oath meeting has spread throughout Shandong, and there is no need for Sun Chuanting to say more, Zheng Jiadong, Bai Guangen, Niu Chenghu, Gao Jie, these Sun army generals have also received the military information of the coming of the war.

Sun Chuanting summoned everyone to convene the last military meeting before the Great War to discuss the military strategy to resist the Xuanjia Army. Although he sent his children away with the determination to die, it did not mean that he had given up resistance.

Although Sun Chuanting's Ming army had 200,000, there were only 20,000 train battalions and 70,000 new-style Ming troops that could really fight against the Xuanjia army.

The Xuanjia Army came in four ways, and the sea was all the way to Zheng Sen of Zhenhaiwei, and he could ignore it. But the other three-way armies that attacked Yanzhou, Qingzhou, and Dongchang respectively, he had to make a counterattack.

Sun Chuanting looked at the sand table and pondered for a long time, before he formulated a detailed combat strategy, this military meeting will arrange all the general soldiers one by one.

But before Sun Chuanting could speak, Zheng Jiadong had already opened his mouth and asked, "General Sun, I heard that Fang Yuan sent a letter of persuasion to the Governor's Mansion, what conditions did Fang Yuan propose for surrender?!" ”

Sun Chuanting was slightly stunned, his eyes swept over the generals one by one, and when he saw the war-weariness in the eyes of Zheng Jiadong and the other general soldiers, he only felt that it was superfluous to arrange any strategies and tactics at the moment. The group under his command were all unruly general soldiers, and they nominally called him Sun Inspector. Once he goes on the expedition, it is unknown whether he will listen to his assignment.

Just like Gao Jie before, he never asked Gao Jie to go to Huai'an Mansion to carry out a massacre, but Gao Jie obviously disobeyed his military orders, making him very passive.

The only thing to do at the moment is to strengthen the will of the general soldiers to fight, otherwise, as soon as these general soldiers leave the governor's palace, it is estimated that they will rush to surrender.

Sun Chuanting took out a letter and ordered the general soldiers to circulate it, and said, "Fang Yuan wants us to surrender unconditionally and send a son to Jiangnan as a hostage. After we surrender our military power, we will obey the fate. If they do not descend early, the male of the household will be slaves, and the women will be prostitutes. ”

Zheng Jiadong and others reviewed the letters one by one, and the letters on them were as Sun Chuanting said, and they all looked at each other. Fang Yuan proposed this kind of surrender condition, how could there be the slightest sincerity to persuade surrender, in the eyes of everyone, this is not a letter of persuasion, but a provocative war letter!

The general soldiers didn't know that Sun Chuanting had torn up the real letter of persuasion, and what was now handed over to the general soldiers for circulation was only forged by him, and even the seal of the regent palace was made by the craftsmen he ordered overnight.

Sun Chuanting has been leading this group of fierce generals for six or seven years, and he knows their temperament very well, and he will not concentrate on fighting Fang Yuan if he continues to follow the back of this group of generals.

Niu Chenghu is a fiery person, and when he saw this letter of persuasion that was completely insincere, and even threatened with words, he scolded, "Damn, Fang Yuan's persuasion method is to empty the gloves of the white wolf?!" ”

Gao Jie was the one who was named by Fang Yuan to kill, and he had no way out, so he could only fight back Fang Yuan to have a chance of life, so he followed the fanning of the flames, "Old Niu, Fang Yuan is clearly conceited that the Xuanjia Army is strong, and he didn't take us seriously, when we are pigs, we are dogs!" ”

Niu Chenghu took out the big saber he was carrying, looked at the chair fiercely, and split the chair into two parts, "Lao Tzu is going to split Fang Yuan alive!" ”

Zheng Jiadong was Niu Chenghu's old boss before, and when he saw that he dared to draw a knife at a military meeting, he hurriedly stopped him, "Old Niu, sit down, it's not good to be brave and ruthless in marching and fighting!" ”

Waiting for Niu Chenghu to sit down angrily, Zheng Jiadong said unhurriedly, "Inspector Sun, the imperial court does not support military expenses and military rations, we are using a corner of Shandong to fight against the five political divisions of Nanzhili, Zhejiang, Fujian, Guangdong, and Jiangxi, and we will lose this battle no matter how we fight!" ”

Seeing that the topic gradually shifted from whether to surrender or not to how to fight against Fang Yuan, Sun Chuanting finally flickered over, secretly happy in his heart, and said unhurriedly, "Zheng Zongbing is right!" The imperial court ignores us, and we have to fight against Fang Yuan for a long time, and we have no chance of winning. But even if it is a surrender, you can't be talked about with a knife to your neck. ”

"Fang Yuan thinks that his soldiers are strong and strong, and if he wants to force us to sign an alliance under the city, what conditions can he give that can make the generals prosperous and rich?! Only by beating, beating hard, and beating Fang Yuan back to Nanzhili, can we have the capital to negotiate with Fang Yuan on an equal footing! ”

His words resonated with the generals, and what he couldn't get on the battlefield couldn't get at the negotiating table. If you want to find a wife and a son, you must hit Fang Yuan the battlefield!

Even Bai Guangen, who didn't speak much, came out to support this suggestion, "I agree with Inspector Sun's statement, only when Fang Yuan is subdued, he will look at us squarely, instead of being as arrogant and arrogant as he is now, and there is no one in his eyes!" ”

Bai Guangen, Niu Chenghu, and Gao Jie all shouted that they wanted to start a war with Fang Yuan, although Zheng Jiadong, who was old and serious, thought that something seemed to be wrong in the middle, but he was angry and could only choose to stand on the same front with the generals, "Inspector Sun, you give the order!" How to fight this battle?! ”

Sun Chuanting saw that the generals had finally unified their strategy, that is, to start a war with Fang Yuan, and couldn't help but be very happy, this time taking the risk of forging Fang Yuan's letter of persuasion was really dangerous. Next, it's how to fight to the death with Fang Yuan and the Xuanjia Army!

Sun Chuanting got up with a solemn expression, pointed to the sand table in the middle and said, "Fang Yuan's soldiers attacked Yanzhou, Dongchang, and Qingzhou in three ways, and then surrounded Jinan Mansion in three ways. We must meet the enemy in three ways and break Fang Yuan's pincer offensive. ”

"The Xuanjia Iron Cavalry is Fang Yuan's elite musketeer cavalry, and ordinary infantry will inevitably be destroyed and defeated in a battle."

Sun Chuanting took out the first military token and threw it to Bai Guangen, "General Bai, you lead 20,000 train battalions, 10,000 new-style Ming troops, and 10,000 Ming troops to meet the Xuanjia Iron Cavalry!" ”

The train battalion was originally specially formed to deal with the cavalry, and the heavy task of facing the Xuanjia Iron Cavalry naturally fell on Bai Guangen's train battalion. Sun Chuanting was also worried that the combat power of the Xuanjia Iron Cavalry was too fierce, so he sent 10,000 new-style Ming troops to help in the battle.

Bai Guangen took the military token and received the order with a bang.

Sun Chuanting looked at the two mansions of Yanzhou and Qingzhou, and said slowly, "The one who attacked Yanzhou Mansion was the main force of the Xuanjia Army's infantry battalion of 70,000, and it was also the main force of Fang Yuan's Northern Expedition this time; And the road to Qingzhou Mansion is the Xuanjia Army Infantry Battalion, as well as the Lu Army of King Lu, and the combat power seems to be slightly weaker. ”

He looked at Niu Chenghu and Gao Jie, who were silent, and asked, "Chief Soldier Niu, Chief Soldier Gao, which of you would like to go to Yanzhou Mansion to face the main force of the Xuanjia Army?!" ”

Before Niu Chenghu could speak, Gao Jie had already preemptively said, "Inspector Sun, I caused the chaos in Huai'an Mansion, I am willing to go to Qingzhou Mansion and make a break with King Lu." ”

He chose a Qingzhou Mansion that seemed to be the weakest in combat, but he didn't want to gnaw on the hard bone of the main force of the Xuanjia Army.

Sun Chuanting saw it in his eyes, but now that the big war was coming, he could only get used to Gao Jie, so he looked at Niu Chenghu and asked, "Chief Soldier Niu, are you willing to go to Yanzhou Mansion to face the main force of Fang Yuan's Xuanjia Army?!" ”

Niu Chenghu was half angry today by Fang Yuan's persuasion book, and as soon as Niu Chengzi got up, he got up angrily and said, "Okay, okay, I'll go to Yanzhou Mansion to see how I cut off Fang Yuan's dog's head!" ”

Since Niu Chenghu himself agreed to go to Yanzhou Mansion to face Fang Yuan, Sun Chuanting began to assign military tasks to the two.

"General Gao, you lead 5,000 new army and 30,000 Ming troops to Qingzhou Mansion to meet Zhang Ying and King Lu."

"Mr. Niu, you lead 10,000 new-style Ming troops, 40,000 Ming troops, and 50,000 troops to Yanzhou Mansion to meet Fang Yuan."

"General Zheng, your old Chen is heavy, so you will lead 20,000 new-style Ming troops, 20,000 to the south, stationed in Tai'an, and plan for the war on all sides."

Sun Chuanting walked around the sand table, returned to the front of the army case, supported the military case with both hands, looked around at the generals, and his eyes shot a gaze like lightning, "This battle is a battle of life and death for our army, and the generals should already know it." If you want to survive, you must first forget about death! I only hope that the generals, not to mention the food of the king and the worries of the king, at least they must be worthy of the glory of the soldiers and worthy of going on a journey in this world. Thousands of years later, in the green history, whether you are a traitor and a minister who lives on your knees, or a loyal minister and a good general who stands and dies, you are all in this battle! ”

All the general soldiers promised in unison, "We will give up our lives and forget death, horse leather shroud!" ”

Sun Chuanting ordered the generals to retreat and each led his troops to the battle. There are a few generals who can really fulfill the promise of the horse leather shroud, and he has no way of judging.

However, this battle may be his last battle, and he may inevitably lose in the end, but he will also fight vigorously and go down in history!
