Chapter Ninety-Four: The Expedition Plan
For such a father, Liu Zheng really didn't want to say anything, but fortunately, he didn't expect him to help, as long as he didn't add to the chaos, he was very satisfied with Liu Zheng. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
He didn't want to be close to his father, and he didn't want to express any opinions at all, so he continued the previous topic and said: "The fourth division is so decided, old man, you personally lead the fifth division and the independent brigade, and the three brigade commanders are the three you are optimistic about, Li Gu, Ma Changtian, Shen Xing, the brigade commander of the independent brigade, you find another one yourself, hehe, I won't mix, and the fifth division will be built on the basis of ten to fourteen battalions!" ”
Wei Boyuan smiled helplessly and stretched out his hand and nodded at Liu Zheng: "You, you, okay, since I promised you, then bring the fifth division out for you, but the virtuous nephew, I will take the fifth division, so who will protect your safety?" ”
Hearing the three words of Six Doors, Liu Zheng instinctively felt uncomfortable in his heart, frowned and said, "Believe them once for the time being!" But I have to beware, if my father really invited my uncle Jiang Mingda, then let my uncle follow me for a while, and let Qin Haiqing take care of it first on the fourth division's side! ”
"What if Jiang Mingda doesn't come? You can't always think on the good side! ”
"If you don't come, then don't be afraid, just mobilize some crossbowmen to follow me, I don't believe it, hundreds of crossbowmen are protecting me, and someone can get close!"
"Speaking of crossbowmen, virtuous nephew, you are really powerful!" Wei Boyuan said with some emotion: "The Zhuge crossbow has been lost for countless years, I can't imagine that you actually know how to make it, the speed of three breaths and one arrow, if there are a hundred people to guard, even ten people like me will not be able to get close to you!" ”
"Huh!" Liu Zheng smiled and said: "Old man, how can I know how to make Zhuge Repeater, this is what I accidentally saw from an ancient book when I was a child!" ”
Wei Boyuan nodded and didn't answer, but changed the topic and said, "Now that the formation of the five divisions has been allocated, what is the next step for the lord?" The grain in Qingzhou alone can't feed an army of 50,000! ”
Wei Boyuan's words in disguise urged him to expand outward as soon as possible, and he was also asking Liu Zheng about his plan in disguise, after all, Liu Zheng is suspicious and loves to hide things in his heart and not announce it.
How could Liu Zheng not understand, stood up and came to the big sand table, pointed to several cities on the sand table and said, "Old man, let's talk about the next step now!" ”
"Now our control area, north to Gaoyuan County, is actually already on the side of the Yellow River, if the imperial army comes to attack in the future, it will inevitably come from three directions, one is the Yellow River in the north, and the other is Jinan Mansion in the west!"
"Third, it is from the sea, there will not be too many troops from the sea, after all, we don't have many navies in the Ming Dynasty!"
"Since then, our key precautions have fallen on the north and west, first look at the north, north of Gaoyuan, from Jinan along the Yellow River to the sea, there are six ferries, of which five are the city, respectively, Jiyang, Qidong, Qingcheng, Putai, Lijin five, only the mouth of the sea near the Fengguo ferry is a small town!"
"Except for Jiyang, these six places are all places that we must defend, and they are also places that must be gained, this is the northernmost line of defense, and pinching here is equivalent to choking the enemy army in the north!"
"What about the western route, my idea is like this, starting from Qidong to the south, passing through Zouping and Zichuan to Qingshi Pass, and from Qingshi Pass through Laiwu, Xintai, Mengyin to Bauhinia Pass!"
"These places are practiced in a straight line, which can divide Shandong into two, the imperial court is in the west, and we are in the east!"
"If we achieve what I think, we must occupy all Laizhou and Dengzhou, and if we want to occupy these two places, we must completely eliminate Laizhouwei, Dengzhouwei, Weihaiwei, Weishanwei, Jinghaiwei, Dasongwei, Aoshanwei and Lingshanwei!"
"My plan is to take advantage of the time when the imperial court's two Qins came to investigate, and completely occupy Laizhou and Dengzhou!"
After Liu Zheng finished speaking, he looked at Wei Boyuan, Wei Boyuan wrinkled his brows and thought for a while before he said: "Among the seven guards, Laizhou Wei, Dengzhou Wei and Weihaiwei are all Davids, and the troops are relatively full, not to mention nearly 30,000 people, although the other four guards are not many, they add up to nearly 50,000, so that the total strength has reached 80,000, and we only have 50,000 people, we need at least one division to hold Qingzhou, so only four divisions are put into battle, but there are still 30,000 recruits in these four divisions, how can we fight?" ”
As soon as Wei Boyuan finished speaking, Liu Zheng smiled: "Old man, their strength is twice as large as ours, but it doesn't matter, after all, they are scattered, and we are clenched into a fist. ”
Wei Boyuan wrinkled his brows and said, "What is the route of the army?" ”
Liu Zheng stretched out his hand and pointed to Changyi City on the map and said: "In addition to the 101st Division garrisoned, the other four divisions will first work together to take Weixian and Changyi, and then transfer a brigade of the 101st Division to garrison Changyi!" ”
"Then the large army turned to the south and took Gaomi, and after taking Gaomi, the 102nd Division turned to the west, took Zhucheng and Rizhao, captured and eliminated Andongwei, and then turned to North Juzhou, Yishui and Mengyin! In this way, the whole territory of Qingzhou is in our hands! ”
"The 103rd, 104th, and 105th divisions, from Gaomi to the south to take Jiaozhou and eliminate Lingshanwei at the same time, and then along the coastline to the east, all the way to Jimo, granary Guchengwei, Aoshanwei, Dasongwei, Wendeng County, Jinghaiwei, Weishanwei, Weihaiwei, and then to the north to take Ninghai, Fushan and Dengzhou Fucheng, after laying Dengzhou Fucheng, turn around, and take Huangxian, Qixia, Laiyang and Pingdu by the way!"
"In this way, in the entire Laizhou Mansion and Dengzhou Mansion, only Laizhou Mansion and Zhaoyuan County are left!"
Wei Boyuan looked at Liu Zheng suspiciously: "Why do you want to keep these two places?" ”
Liu Zheng laughed and said: "These two places are our 'good friends' Chen Zeng and Chen's father-in-law, aren't we too sorry for our 'friends'?"
Wei Boyuan still looked at Liu Zheng puzzled, and Liu Zheng had no choice but to explain again: "It's still useful to keep Chen Zeng!" ”
"What's the use of this dead eunuch without eggs?" Wei Boyuan wrinkled his brows and said, "What else will they do besides scraping the ground?" ”
Liu Zheng didn't explain, he just said casually, and he would know when the time came, Wei Boyuan didn't ask anymore, he knew Liu Zheng's problem, as long as he didn't want to say, it would be useless to ask.
Liu Zheng continued his previous words: "After the 103rd, 104th and 105th Divisions return, the 101st Division will take over the garrison tasks in these places, the 104th Division will move north to Gaoyuan County, establish the headquarters of the 104th Division in Gaoyuan, and then seize the ferry city along the Yellow River, and after the 103rd Division moves to capture Zichuan County, it will seize Xincheng, Changshan, and Zouping counties to the north, and establish the headquarters of the 103rd Division in Zouping. ”
"The 105th Division passed through the Qingshi Pass, all the way to the south, Laiwu and Xintai along the road didn't need to care about them, and went straight to Mengyin to join the 102nd Division and conspire with the Bauhinia Pass! After capturing the Bauhinia Pass, 105 returned to Qingzhou and garrisoned Qingzhou! ”
After saying this, Liu Zheng stretched out his hand and drew a circle on the sand table, looked at Wei Boyuan and said, "Old man, how about my arrangement?" ”
Wei Boyuan pondered for a while and said: "Yes, in this way, a solid defense line can be formed, if the imperial court wants to enter the Qingzhou Mansion, it will have to send twice or even more than three times the army!" ”
After saying this, Wei Boyuan looked up at Liu Zheng and said, "When does the lord plan to start implementing this plan?" ”
Liu Zheng thought for a while and said, "When Brother Zhou Yun defeats Anqiu, he will prepare to act!" During this period, let's prepare the grain and grass first! ”
……
Wei Boyuan found Qin Haiqing, and the two went to work together on the matter of grain and grass, Liu Zheng walked out of the door of the northwest corner of the camp, and walked for a minute or two into the craftsman area.
Although the soldier guarding the door is a recruit, Liu Zheng's face is still remembered very clearly, seeing Liu Zheng's arrival, Hula half knelt down, Liu Zheng said with a tiger face: "You are recruits?" What did I say before recruit training? As long as you enter my army, the previous customs can no longer be wanted, a manly man, with gold under his knees, and his parents on his knees! I, Liu Zheng, am it heaven or earth, or are you parents? Stand up for Lao Tzu! ”
A few recruits standing guard look at me, I look at you, and then slowly stood up, lowering their heads and not daring to look at Liu Zheng.
Liu Zheng is so angry, how many days have you been training here, and you are still so cowardly, how can you go to the battlefield?
"Who are your soldiers, and who are your battalion commanders? Where is the courage of the soldiers? Stand upright, stand up straight, have you ever learned military salute? Don't you salute when you see the chief? ”
The soldier in front of Liu Zheng was flushed when he was trained, but the training in the past few days has made him a lot bolder, and at the same time he subconsciously gave a military salute and shouted: "Report, I am a soldier in the third platoon and third squad of the first company of the 29th Battalion of recruits, my name is Zhang Daniu, and our battalion commander is Shen Xing!" ”
"Huh?" Liu Zheng was slightly stunned, just now when he talked about this Shen Xing, he jumped out at this moment, and said with a smile in his heart, it is really fate.
With a smile in his heart, his face was still flat, and he snorted: "Go and call me your battalion commander!" ”
"Yes, my lord!" Zhang Daniu saluted again, and ran to find Shen Xing.
Such a big movement at the door attracted the attention of many people in the craftsman area, and soon someone notified Li Tiezhu, who was in charge, and Li Tiehammer hurriedly came to the gate just in time to meet Liu Zheng.
Li Tiehammer scratched his head and said, "Who should I be?" It turned out to be General Liu, why are you here? ”
Liu Zheng wanted to laugh when he saw Li Tiezhu's honest appearance, and at the same time secretly sighed that geniuses generally have low emotional intelligence?
Liu Zheng stretched out his hand to stop Li Tiezhu's shoulder, and said as he walked inside: "Tiehammer, did Old Man Sun make the graphite crucible?" ”
Li Tiezhu scratched his head again and said: "What, I don't understand that, I know that Old Man Sun made a black pot, and the molten iron that burns out can make good steel, it is really good steel, you don't know, I used that steel to make a good knife, and cut it against the two-finger-thick big knife, and it took dozens of knives to roll a little blade!" ”
"Oh?" Liu Zheng was overjoyed, and immediately quickened his pace: "Quick, take me to see!" ”
