I was very busy every day, and I finally had some time to pay the public grain, and kept in mind the requirements of the old comprador Wu to reproduce more children and grandchildren, Wu Chaoyue of course ran to the room of Feng Wanzhen, the only one who had not yet given birth to children, and ravaged Feng Wanzhen, who had gradually grown into a young girl in her arms. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

It is true that she hasn't been here for a long time, and after paying the rent twice in a row, Feng Wanzhen, who is also in a hurry to give birth to Wu Chaoyue, is still a little unsatisfied, and is still taking the initiative to quietly tease Wu Chaoyue, but Wu Chaoyue, who has a good ability in this regard, did not react much, just caressing Feng Wanzhen's smooth skin and calculating. After several efforts were declared unsuccessful, Feng Wanzhen had no choice but to give up obediently, and asked with concern: "Xianggong, what's wrong?" You seem to have something on your mind? ”

"Nothing." Wu Chaoyue, who really had something on his mind, replied casually: "It's just that I'm worried about the long-haired Northern Expeditionary Army, I'm afraid they're going to be worse again." ”

Thanks to the fact that there are now three newspapers in the territory controlled by the Wu army, Feng Wanzhen also has a little understanding of the situation of the Taiping Army's Northern Expeditionary Army, so she asked a little strangely: "Are you worried about the long-haired Northern Expeditionary Army?" Didn't the newspaper say that Long Hair had already hit the territory of Tianjin Prefecture controlled by the rebellious party? ”

"It's almost time to see the walls of Tianjin City." Wu Chaoyue replied: "But it's a pity, as far as the information I have, Changmao has gradually shown defeat, and this time it will be like last time, and he will lose in Tianjin again." ”

Speaking of this, Wu Chaoyue sighed, and simply said what was in his heart to his beloved partially, and said: "I once wrote to Yang Xiuqing to let him know that the Russian foreigners had formed an alliance with the chaotic party in the capital, in fact, I was encouraging him to send troops as soon as possible, seize the opportunity that the Russians had not had time to assist the chaotic party in the capital on a large scale, and fight a strategic decisive battle as soon as possible." ”

"In fact, I have long expected that Changmao has no hope of taking the capital at all, their army's combat effectiveness and the quality of grassroots soldiers have declined too quickly and too seriously, and the chaotic party in the capital will definitely resist to the end, and the possibility of Changmao breaking through the capital is very small."

"But I thought so at the time, even if Longhair can't take the capital, and the Northern Expedition fails again, at least it can hurt the rebel army, and even if Longhair fails, he still has the strength to fight. In this way, the rebellious party in the capital can only give priority to their remnants to guard against long hair, and give priority to the southern end of the North China Plain, so as to reduce the pressure on me to send troops from Shanxi to the west and increase the chances of victory. ”

"But I couldn't have been more wrong this time." Wu Chaoyue showed a wry smile and said: "I never expected that the decline in the combat effectiveness of the long-haired army would be more serious than I imagined, except for relying on the help of that idiot of Monk Greenqin to fight two beautiful battles, there was no slightly decent victory." I didn't expect that Yang Xiuqing would let his younger brother Yang Yuanqing, who had never been on the battlefield, be the commander of the Northern Expedition and command this strategic decisive battle related to the future fate of Changmao. ”

"Longhair has lost this time, and the Navy Division will definitely be wiped out!" Wu Chaoyue said very categorically: "If you are a little unlucky on land, the lightest is more than half of the casualties, otherwise it is not impossible for the whole army to be wiped out!" ”

doesn't understand military affairs, Feng Wanzhen certainly doesn't understand why Wu Chaoyue thinks so badly of the Taiping Army, but Feng Wanzhen didn't ask the reason, just said: "So what? Didn't you say that sooner or later you will have to fight to the death with Longhair, let the rebel army kill a person with Longhair first, and when you fight Changhair again in the future, wouldn't it be easier? ”

"Baby, you only saw one, not the second."

Wu Chaoyue smiled, twisted the peanuts on Feng Wanzhen's chest and said: "Yes, the rebel army wiped out the Long-haired Northern Expeditionary Army, which is also beneficial to me, and it will make it much easier for me to start a war with Changmao in the future." But in this way, Longhair will no longer be able to effectively contain the rebel army for me, and the rebel army will give priority to using the Russian aid they have received against us, and if I want to take the capital and eliminate the rebel party, it will be more than double or twice as difficult. ”

Speaking of this, Wu Chaoyue sighed again and said: "At that time, Yang Xiuqing will have to secretly help the chaotic party in the capital, because he has been greatly injured, of course, I hope that I and the chaotic party in the capital will also lose both, so as to buy time and relieve pressure for him to make a comeback." ”

"Even with Yang Xiuqing's character and temper, it is unlikely that he will directly help the rebellious party in the capital to beat us, at least he will not sacrifice his strength and help us do our best to contain the rebellious party in the capital, we will only sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, wishing that we would fight as fiercely as possible with the rebellious party in the capital."

When he said these words absent-mindedly, Wu Chaoyue's tone was full of worry, and he was indeed very worried about the various unforeseen consequences after the fiasco of the Taiping Army's Northern Expeditionary Army. As a result, Feng Wanzhen disagreed after hearing this, and said, "What are you afraid of? Then Xianggong, can't you fight directly with the rebel army? Anyway, it is necessary to fight, it is better to fight late than early, and even if the rebel army defeats the Long-haired Northern Expeditionary Army, its own losses will definitely not be small, and it is more beneficial to fight with them at this time. ”

"It's easy to say." Wu Chaoyue smiled, patted Feng Wanzhen's face and said: "The rebel army is not a fool, even if they defeat the long-haired Northern Expeditionary Army, they will definitely not rush to fight with me, they will only continue to take the defensive, and then find a way to fight me after recovering their strength first." ”

"I am not ready for a full-scale Northern Expedition now, if I want to disrupt the party, I must first take Shanxi as an advance base, or send troops from Kaifeng to enter Zhili, this road is sparsely populated in the Yellow Flood Area, and it is difficult to supply, and the army of the rebellious party does not need to fight with me, and my logistics can ......be exhausted by consuming grain and grass alone."

"Xianggong, then you can't attract Long Hair to fight you?" Feng Wanzhen interrupted Wu Chaoyue's chatter and said: "As long as Changmao is not completely wiped out on the battlefield in Tianjin, and there is an army running south to flee for his life, the rebel army will definitely chase and kill to the end. ”

After blurting out what she was thinking, Feng Wanzhen regretted it a little, and hurriedly added: "Xianggong, I don't understand the affairs of the army, I just talk casually, don't blame me if you say something wrong." ”

Answering Feng Wanzhen's did not blame, on the contrary, after thinking about it for a long time, Wu Chaoyue suddenly hugged Feng Wanzhen and kissed her, Feng Wanzhen struggled shyly, and said coquettishly: "Xianggong, what are you crazy about?" Don't start with, this will be the slaves are ready to sleep, and you are coming again? ”

"What do you sleep on? It's the right thing to do to give me a son as soon as possible! Come, Xianggong, I'll help you prepare. Wu Chaoyue moved his hands and feet on Feng Wanzhen's graceful body, and said with a smile: "This is a reward for you, my little Zhuge girl, thank you for giving me a good idea." ”

"Huh? Xianggong, can the method I said really work? ”

"Absolutely! As you said, after the collapse of the Long-haired Northern Expeditionary Army, the rebel army will never miss this opportunity to beat the water dogs, and the rebel army will never think that Longhair will use us as bait to lure them closer to our ambush circle. Therefore, as long as we can convince the defeated army of Long Mao to cooperate, we will definitely be able to deal a heavy blow to the rebel army, and maybe we can also take the opportunity to inflict heavy damage on the rebel cavalry, which poses the greatest threat to us, and greatly weaken the mobility of the rebel army. ”

"Really? That's great, ouch, don't bite, it hurts ....... ”

Early the next morning, after Wu Chaoyue announced the tactical plan he had exchanged for his physical strength in bed to a few henchmen and lackeys, the accomplice lackeys led by Zhao Liewen and Yan Jingming all applauded, believing that as long as they were well prepared in advance, this plan would be very sure of success -- especially when the Qing army would never allow the defeated brigade of the Taiping army to join the Taiping army in southern Lunan, and even without Wu Jun taking the initiative to ask the Taiping army to cooperate with the action, the Qing army itself could give priority to the defeated brigade of the Taiping army to the border of Yulu. Pursue yourself to the vicinity of the territory controlled by the Wu army.

"The foreplay has to be done sufficiently, immediately give Zeng Guoquan an order, and ask him to send heavy troops to clean up the traitor Li Zhaoshou of the Twist Army, create the illusion that we are insufficient troops on the Yulu border, and also make the rebel army feel that since we have fought so hard with the Twist Army, it is impossible to help Changmao anymore." Wu Chaoyue's inspiration for this command still came from the bed.
