In the third year of Jiaqing, on the first day of the tenth month of the lunar calendar, on Kongtong Mountain, among the stockades, a white dove flew far away, hovered in the air, and then flew down, landed on a wooden frame, and cooed. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 Immediately, a soldier came running quickly, came to the carrier pigeon, gently and neatly took out the bamboo tube containing the letterhead, did not stop, and did not dare to open it without permission, and galloped away, running in a certain direction.

In a certain room, Huo Xiong was in it, sitting on the couch, and there was a beautiful woman lying in his arms, it was Miss Ke'er, and the two of them were so glue-like at this time, sticking together.

"Husband, since we have conquered the entire Jiangxi, and there are many prosperous cities under the control of the Kongtong army, why do we still hide in this deep mountain? Isn't the living environment in the city better than here? ”

"Hey~ Ke'er, although life in the city is good, how can it compare to here? The birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant, the environment is quiet, and it is definitely a place where fairy couples live~! If you live in the city and there are warblers and swallows everywhere, aren't you afraid that I will snub you by messing with flowers and willows? Huo Xiong was a little Ke'er's nose, and a pair of big hands began to be dishonest again, acting recklessly, making Ke'er petite and shouting again.

"Hehe, husband, how could it be? I know you love me the most, how can there be other women in your eyes? If the husband really changes his mind and spoils other women, it is also a cheap concubine, and he is not in place, and he can't complain about others~! Ke'er said softly, emphasizing the word "waiting".

"Haha, the lady still understands me, and that's right. But, Kerr, there's one thing you're wrong. Huo Xiong pulled out his big hand from Ke'er's arms, pinched her nose dotingly, and said meaningfully.

"Ah~ husband, what the slave family said was wrong?" Kerr's cheeks were flushed, full of coquettishness.

"Hehe, why do you need to say it? You are the one who carried me up the mountain in a sedan chair, and you have worshiped heaven and earth under the witness of all my brothers, how can you be a concubine? At the very least, she is also a cheap wife, and she can't call herself a cheap concubine in the future. Otherwise, take out my big stick and serve the family law! Huo Xiong said domineeringly, slapped Ke'er's buttocks again, and laughed proudly: "Haha~!" ”

In an instant, the charming breath flew and flowed in the room, although Huo Xiong said it in a mocking tone, Ke'er was moved again and again, born in Qinglou woman, she has been blinded since she was a child, and she can be treated like this by Huo Xiong, although the words are vulgar, but she shows the color of iron bones, a real hero.

However, at this moment, when the two were about to warm up, there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps outside, and then, a soldier went straight in, destroying the good deeds of the two, seeing the person who came, the anger that had risen suddenly disappeared, and asked in a deep voice: "Tell me quickly, what is the emergency military situation?" ”

The soldier was the one who took out the letter from the carrier pigeon, saluted the military salute, and while taking something out of his arms, he said without humility or arrogance: "Report to the commander, I just received the flying pigeon summons, it belongs to the red secret military information, and the subordinates have no right to open it to see, so I don't know what the emergency military situation is, you need to open it yourself to know." ”

While speaking, Ke'er had already struggled out of Huo Xiong's arms, and with a serious look, the soldier also handed over the bamboo tube with the letterhead, and his face was very calm.

Taking over the short thin bamboo tube, Huo Xiong looked at the firearm sealed on it, marked with SSS letters, which means the top secret level, and suddenly understood in his chest, understood, and then waved his hand, signaling that the soldier could go out, with a solemn look on his face, he took out the letterhead inside, and slowly unfolded it, as if the woman who had just received him was approaching, and said lightly without raising his head: "Ke'er, you go out first, I still have important things to deal with." ”

There is a huge gap between the front and back of the attitude, from enthusiasm to coldness, Ke'er has no business, Huo Xiong's change, she knows deeply that something big must have happened, this letterhead is very involved, it is confidential, and it cannot be seen by others.

This kind of thing, in more than a year, Ke'er has seen too much, it seems that he is used to it, whenever Huo Xiong has this kind of look, he will automatically leave, leaving Huo Xiong alone in the house to deal with things.

Squeak~

The moment the door was closed, the letterhead was fully unfolded, and it was densely packed with numbers, horizontal and vertical, as if each set of numbers was placed in a space. Seeing this situation, Huo Xiong immediately reacted, got out of bed without thinking, went straight to a secret place, took out a code book, and then sat down at the table.

Huo Xiong's expression was focused and serious, he didn't say a word, the letterhead was spread on the table, Huo Xiong flipped through the codebook, looked at the numbers on the letterhead, extracted the words from the codebook, and transcribed them on the white paper.

Gradually, as the translation deepened, more and more words appeared on the blank paper, forming complete sentences, and the content became clearer and clearer, and Huo Xiong's calm expression began to appear and became excited.

When he finished writing the last word, Huo Xiong couldn't help but breathe a long sigh of relief, he didn't have time to stretch his body and relax, so he couldn't wait to pick up the paper and read it carefully again.

Suddenly, Huo Xiong violently put away the paper and letterhead, put them in his arms, and put the code book back in the secret position, then he walked forward, opened the door, and walked towards the Juyi Hall not far away, which was the military command office of the Kongtong Army, where the senior officers met.

The military horn sounded, and the generals on Kongtong Mountain looked solemn, listened carefully, no matter what they were doing, immediately put down the work in their hands, took action one after another, walked quickly, and walked towards the righteous hall in the center of the cottage.

In the Juyi Hall, the decoration has long been changed to a different style, exactly according to what Yang Lin said, the modern combat conference hall, the long table, on which there is a sand table, used for combat deduction and actual combat simulation.

The sand table is a simulation version of various terrains, infinitely condensed, and it is full of flags, representing both sides of the enemy, military deployment, and the posture of the enemy and us.

The hall was noisy, chaotic, or in groups of three or five, discussing: "Hey, the commander suddenly called us together, there is no news beforehand, everyone, do you know what is going on?" ”

"I don't know, I also received an order suddenly~"

"Who's to say it isn't? As soon as I heard the sound of the rallying call, I put down all the work in my hand and rushed here non-stop~! ”

......

Or two people standing on the side of the sand table, each holding a baton, taking advantage of their leisure time, facing each other, testing each other's military strategies, and reproducing some battle cases, can better understand the catechism and key points.

There are also people who stand in front of a huge national map hanging and point to each region and discuss the current situation.

"According to the military operation report from the front, as well as some gossip, our territory has continued to advance northward from the former Guangdong, Fujian, Jiangxi and Zhejiang, and has crossed the Yangtze River, and the marshal and the commander of the Chao army have successively taken Jiangsu and Fujian."

"Looking at the situation, the direction of the attack of the two armies, the marshal is preparing to take the land south of the Yellow River in one fell swoop, and completely cut off the financial and food sources of the Manchu Qing Dynasty!"

"Who's to say it isn't? The timing chosen by the marshal was too good, and the pinching was extremely accurate, it was just after the summer harvest, and the Qing court had not had time to collect grain. Even if some places have begun to collect grain, it has just been collected and has not yet been shipped, so the Qing court will not have a good year, and the treasury is absolutely very empty! ”

"Hehe, how can it be that simple? Emptiness, that's the best case scenario! You should know that the marshal sent a thunderbolt to block the waters of the Yangtze River and the Yellow River, and the Central Plains and the south of the Yangtze River were almost all controlled by us. ”

......

The atmosphere in the hall was very relaxed, there was not the slightest tension at all, there was nothing to say, Huo Xiong sat there, silent, every time a general arrived, he would report in front of him.

Gradually, the hall began to become crowded, and the sound became more and more noisy, at this time, Huo Xiong glanced at the roster, looked around, and saw that the personnel were almost there, picked up the drum hammer on the side, and struck it at the gong.

Boom~!

The crisp sound resounded throughout the hall and reached everyone's ears, and immediately, the hall became quiet, and everyone stopped talking, put down what they were doing, and looked at Huo Xiong.

At this time, Huo Xiong stood up, came to the map, faced everyone, and said loudly: "I know that you must be very confused, without any notice, I suddenly summoned you here. However, I have just received a message, and I am sure that you will be happy to hear it and understand that I am doing this. ”

"Commander, don't be along, what is it that makes you so happy, hurry up and say it, brothers can't wait~!" In the midst of the crowd, a voice came.

Suddenly interrupted, Huo Xiong was not angry, but smiled slightly, and said loudly: "Okay, since you can't wait, I won't sell it anymore, and tell you directly." ”

"That's right, I just received news that Chao Sheng's kid has already conquered Henan and is preparing to attack Hubei, and the marshal has also taken Shandong and sent troops to assist Commander Chao's actions."

However, to Huo Xiong's surprise, after finishing speaking, there was no warm cheer, no words of joy, but a kind of silence, which made Huo Xiong a little embarrassed.

Seeing this, Huo Xiong groaned slightly, and immediately understood, understood why everyone reacted this way, smiled, to hide the embarrassment, and then said, "Everyone, do you know what this means? It means that we can act, we can attack Hunan, and then go south, attack Yunnan, Guizhou and Guangxi, we don't have to nest in this place anymore, there are also battles! ”

The cheers came, everyone laughed, and Huo Xiong said again: "Okay, now let's start talking about the focus of this meeting, the purpose of summoning you. Listen to it, send the order, and immediately fly the pigeon to pass the message, informing the army at the junction of Jiangxi and Hunan to prepare for the attack. ”

"At the same time, let the recruits from Fujian, Jiangxi, Zhejiang, and Guangdong set off, take the junction of Guangdong and Guangxi, Jiangxi and Hunan as the baseline, gather there, prepare to go to the front line, fight with the army, and increase their actual combat experience!"
