At the same time, when the Qing court was discussing the suppression of the rebellion of the White Lotus Sect in the southwest, thousands of miles away on the southeast coast, on Hong Kong Island, in the council chamber, the three commanders of the Thunder and most of the battalion and company commanders were in columns, sitting around the table. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Qi Zhiyuan glanced at the battalion company commanders one by one, and then glanced at Shi Mingzhi and Zhuge Mou on the left and right, nodded slightly while understanding each other, and then said slowly: "Everyone, it has been more than three months since we successively wiped out the Blue Flag Gang, the Yellow Flag Gang and the Blue Flag Gang last year, and have Lamma Island, Hong Kong Island and Kowloon Peninsula as our bases. ”

"A winter's recuperation and the integration of people from all walks of life have made our thunder have a population of 10,000 people and thousands of warships, although I am the rank of regiment commander, but I have the reality of a brigade commander. Due to our thunderous blow, the three major pirate forces were wiped out with lightning speed, and it also hit the Red Flag Gang Zhang Baozai's department hard, which won us three months of precious time and was able to consolidate the occupied territory, so that the three islands presented a joint defense mechanism, and the pirate forces did not dare to attack easily. ”

Listening to the concluding words, the others nodded approvingly, puzzled, what's wrong with the head of the regiment? Why all of a sudden? Without waiting for everyone's guesses, Qi Zhiyuan's voice sounded again, answering everyone's confusion in a timely manner.

"The cold winter has passed, and the forces of all parties have begun to move, and we will also act to kill. Calling you here today is nothing more than to discuss future military operations, whether to fight the Red Flag Gang first, or to destroy the weakest White Flag Gang Liang Bao first? ”

Suddenly, there was a lot of discussion below, and no one stood up straight and said what he thought in his chest, just waiting.

Seeing this situation, Qi Zhiyuan's face was as usual, tilted his head slightly, and said: "Staff Officer Zhuge is the most familiar with the two, now let's introduce their situation, talk about their sphere of influence and strength, so that they have a more intuitive and clear understanding for the upcoming action." ”

Zhuge Mou nodded, then stood up, turned away, located in front of the sea map, picked up the command stick used for command, and decisively pointed to the northwest of the New Territories, and the sound of Lang Lang sounded.

"Ladies and gentlemen, please see, the place I am referring to is the place where the White Flag Gang is entrenched, and the New Territories next to the Red Flag Gang. In the past, because the six major pirate forces reached a consensus not to invade each other and signed the "Public Treaty", they were spared and were not annexed by the Red Flag Gang. ”

"And because of the particularity of his geographical location, which is located in the far northwest of this area, it is difficult for the White Flag Gang to form an alliance with the other four major pirate forces to counterbalance the threat of the Red Flag Gang.

Whether it was Qi Zhiyuan, Shi Mingzhi and other personnel, they all listened carefully, and when they heard this, Shi Mingzhi said with understanding: "En... According to the current situation, the Black Flag Gang has long existed, and the three major pirate forces of green, blue, and yellow have been swallowed up by us, and this balance has been broken by us, and the Red Flag Gang has lost the restraint of other forces in the past, and dares to swallow the White Flag Gang unscrupulously. ”

Zhuge Mou, who paused, nodded and added: "Yes, this is exactly the case. ”

"Then, in the past three months, why hasn't the Red Flag Gang taken action to annex the White Flag Gang?" A battalion commander asked, a look of doubt on his face.

"It's very simple, when we occupied Hong Kong Island, Zhang Baozai fled in embarrassment and wiped out part of the strength of the Red Flag Gang. Later, when the Blue Flag Gang was captured, he fought with us again, but it ended in defeat. The two battles not only hurt the Red Flag Gang, but also made him dare not act rashly. ”

"Once the Red Flag Gang annexes the White Flag Gang, a big battle is inevitable and will consume his troops. If the two are at war, if we thunder step in and march from Kowloon to the New Territories of his Red Flag Gang. ”

"Then, he will be in danger of being attacked by the enemy, and it is entirely possible that the troops sent out will be wiped out by us, and the Red Flag Gang will steal chickens and rice, and their strength will be greatly weakened, and their vitality will be greatly damaged, and they will face our attack at any time."

"Oh... So that's the case, I thought the Red Flag Gang was abiding by the spirit of the contract. The battalion commander suddenly agreed.

Zhuge Mou didn't say anything more, but the command stick moved again, clicked twice on the sea map respectively, and then said: "This is the New Territories and Lantau Island respectively, the territory of the Red Flag Gang, and among them, the New Territories is the old nest of the Red Flag Gang, with all kinds of birds, cannons and other firearms manufacturing places established by Zheng Yi's sister-in-law, which continuously replenishes the weapon consumption of the Red Flag Gang. ”

As soon as the words fell, the people were shocked, they didn't expect the Red Flag Gang to be able to make their own firearms, and secretly said in their hearts, no wonder this is the case, it is worthy of being the leading gang of the six pirate forces, and no one is invincible on the sea, so that the Guangzhou sailors dare not plunder its edge.

Not only that, Zheng Yi's sister-in-law and Zhang Baozai are the leaders of the Red Flag Gang, one inside and one outside, which makes the strength of the Red Flag Gang thriving. Although Zhang Baozai was born in poverty, he was extremely good at naval warfare, and the army was even more strictly organized, and the people he belonged to did not dare to bully the coastal residents easily, and if there was a violation, he would not be pardoned. ”

Zheng Yi's sister-in-law is very exquisite, and she is also very intelligent in firearms, has a long-term vision, and attaches great importance to the development and improvement of firearms. Every time after a big battle between the Red Flag Gang and the foreigners, they will collect the foreigners' firearms such as birds, and after researching, gather the advantages of them and improve the firearms they have. ”

At this time, Qi Zhiyuan suddenly interjected, and suddenly said: "Staff Officer Zhuge , no wonder in that battle with the Red Flag Gang, you had to insist on the slow advance of the troops to ensure that the weapons did not fall into the hands of the other party, the original reason is here." ”

"Yes, Commander, exactly. Well, I know all about the Red Flag Gang and the White Flag Gang, and I don't know the rest. ”

After saying this, Zhuge Mou put the command baton back in its place, returned to his seat, and sat down unhurriedly, his expression calm and natural, waiting for Qi Zhiyuan's speech.

Bang bang...

Qi Zhiyuan knocked lightly on the table, signaling everyone to be quiet, and his rough voice followed, saying, "Okay, the chief of staff has detailed the situation of the two major pirate forces, do you have any opinions?" The target of our next military operation is the White Flag Gang, or the most difficult Red Flag Gang? ”

For a while, the council hall became quieter, the battalion and company commanders, you look at me, I look at you, and finally the battalion commander closest to Qi Zhiyuan stood up and said loudly: "Regiment commander, I think we should solve the White Flag Gang first." In this way, I Thunder will be able to form a flanking attack on the Red Flag Gang from the east and northwest, so as to take down his New Realm lair. ”

Whether it was Qi Zhiyuan, the head of the supreme commander, or Shi Mingzhi and Zhuge Mou, who were staff officers, they were all ordinary colors, and they did not make any statement. At this moment, another battalion commander also stood up and said eloquently: "I think we should attack the Red Flag Gang first, once the Red Flag Gang collapses, the White Flag Gang will be alone, unable to deal with the pressure from us alone, and it is likely to bring people to surrender." ”

"I think it's better to attack the White Flag Gang, if you eliminate the Red Flag Gang first, once the White Flag Gang finds out that it is in decline, out of his own safety considerations, he will definitely send troops to help against my Thunder Soldiers."

......

Each battalion and company commander was a chicken, a duck, and he gave his own suggestions. Although the scene was a bit chaotic, it was quite orderly, everyone could get to the point, and there was nothing nonsense. This kind of scene is exactly what Qi Zhiyuan likes to see, and the real reason for launching this military conference is to cultivate the military quality of the commanders of various battalions and companies, to control the overall battle situation, and to reserve talents for more important posts in the future.

After dozens of minutes of self-expression, Qi Zhiyuan stood up, his hands slowly rose and fell, signaling everyone to be quiet, and Lang Lang said: "Okay, each of you has said, it's time for me now, although we will discuss and decide which side to attack?" Which option is adopted? ”

Immediately, the council hall fell silent, and the commanders of each battalion and company had their backs straight, their eyes blazing, and they listened as if they were listening, waiting for the regimental commander's analysis. (To be continued.) )
