From beginning to end, it seems to be a habit, every time he encounters such a large-scale occasion to discuss specific matters, Qu Kun will prepare a small notebook, record the content of everyone's discussion in the book, and then organize it again, in duplicate, one as a historical data storage, and the other as an implementation plan. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

And the formation of this habit was specially instructed by Yang Lin, and Qu Kun insisted on it. Not only that, Yang Lin also has such requirements for other personnel, similar arrangements, such as the management of various entertainment venues, the recording of accounts, etc., especially each naval battle of Thunder, will be recorded in detail, including pre-war planning, wartime on-the-spot command and effective response to various emergencies.

Therefore, because of these measures, combined with some books from China and the West, Yang Lin has established various academies in some hidden places and reserved a large number of talents, especially focusing on military industry and science and technology.

What is not known is that Yang Lin has several military projects under secret development, and once successful, it will bring about tremendous changes in the army and navy, completely subverting the previous way of battlefield competition.

When Qu Kun wrote down the last point of discussion, Yang Lin turned his head to look at Zhuge Mou and said solemnly: "Staff Zhuge Staff, once we launch a large-scale northern expedition to overthrow the rule of the Qing court, and when the army reaches the waters of the Yellow River and the Yangtze River, we will need a large number of warships to cross the river and transport the soldiers to the opposite bank, so as not to affect the progress of the army." ”

"In this case, the number of warships on the southeast coast of the Thunder will be drastically reduced, which will seriously affect the balance of power in this area, once the navy of foreigners suddenly appears on the coast, Guangdong and Fujian will be very dangerous, do you have a good way there? Or what is the effective way to deal with it? ”

Zhuge Mou did not answer immediately, but thought for a moment, and after organizing the language, he said confidently again: "Report to the marshal, since once the army is drawn, most of the warships of Thunder will sail to the north. Therefore, I discussed with Commander Qi and Staff Officer Shi, who is very good at naval warfare and is familiar with the waters in this area, and he will sit in the southeast coastal area and live in Hong Kong to ensure the safety of the arsenal there. ”

"Not only that, in order to ensure everything, we are ready to take out all the new cannons and equip them in Guangdong and Fujian, replace the cannons made by the original Qing court, and update the cannons in each fort, so that the coastal coastal defense will be raised to a new height."

"Especially in Macao, in the three directions of the southeast, north and south, the coast is the key place to deploy new artillery, and mines will be planted along the coast, with the 500 medium and large warships left behind, plus the dense artillery batteries along the coast of the two provinces, even if the navy of the foreigners comes, it can ensure that they have no return and are wiped out at sea."

"Even if the worst-case scenario happens, the unknown enemy will actually attack the interior and make a landing, and the mines along the coast will be enough for them to drink a pot and wipe out a lot of combat power. Then, the army reacted quickly and sniped, and with the huge advantage in numbers and weapons, it could completely avoid the war from reaching the inland towns. ”

Zhuge Mou's voice echoed in the study, saying so sonorously and confidently, leaving almost no spare strength.

Others may not know, but Yang Lin knows that Zhuge Mou's words are not rhetoric, but complete self-confidence, based on his own strength, the cannon used by Thunder is very advanced, whether it is the attack power of the book, or in the range, it is more than twice that of foreigners. As long as the ammunition is sufficient, it can be fearless from all sides, and at the worst, it can resist the enemy in the open sea, and it will not be able to land ashore.

What's more, since it is a war on the far sea, how many troops and warships can foreigners bring? As long as it takes a long time to free up your hands, you can completely clean them up like a bed bug to death.

As soon as Zhuge Mou finished speaking, Yang Lin said, "Is the warship that set off with the army ready?" You will set off early tomorrow morning, and you will have another important task, which is to project troops from a long distance and send some of the land forces in Guangzhou directly to the coast of Fujian, so as to form a flanking attack with the army going north, and take Fujian in the shortest possible time. ”

"Report to the marshal, we have been ready for a long time, but, marshal, after we have finished throwing our troops, will the warships stop in the nearby seas, or will we continue north, entering the Yangtze River or the Yellow River?"

Obviously, Yang Lin had already thought of this problem, and with the corresponding deployment, he immediately replied: "Don't wait, after you meet with the warships on the Taiwan side, continue to go north, divide the troops into two routes, three-quarters enter the waters of the Yangtze River, wait for our arrival, and be ready to transport troops at any time, and the other quarter continue to go north, enter the Yellow River, meet with the thunder warships there, further block the surface of the Yellow River, and strictly prohibit the passage of all kinds of ships." ”

"Yes, Marshal."

Methodical deployment, mature orders, and help Ah Sheng's sign language translation, Zhai Dakun nodded frequently, looking like he was listening, and the light in his eyes became more and more loud, overflowing with essence and exuding excitement.

When Yang Lin turned his head to look at him, he was just about to open his mouth to speak, Chao Sheng immediately said: "Marshal, don't worry, 20,000 new cavalry and 30,000 infantry are ready, as long as you give an order, you can set off at any time, fight, and destroy any enemy." ”

Hearing this, Yang Lin didn't talk nonsense anymore, no longer said anything, but looked at Qu Kun again, and said seriously: "Ah Sheng, when the meeting is over, immediately release all the carrier pigeons, activate the secret hands in various places, and at the same time tell Elder Wang Zhizheng Wang, let him notify the deaf and dumb people in each branch of Jishitang, and let this group of people in various places take action, carry out assassination missions, and snipe the famous generals of the Manchu Tartars, so that the garrisons of the Qing court in various places are leaderless and chaotic, providing the most favorable conditions for our Northern Expedition." ”

This order immediately shocked everyone in the study, no one expected Yang Lin to be so poisonous, so unscrupulous, and ready to behead the enemy before the war began, although it was not very open, but it was very effective. Zhai Dakun quickly returned to his usual appearance, and admired Yang Lin's courage and strategy more and more, especially in terms of vision.

For Yang Lin's secret hand, Zhai Dakun knew about it for a long time, and even participated in the collection of those assassination lists. At the beginning, Zhai Dakun thought that the reason why Yang Lin wanted the information of these people was to study it, so that he could use it on the battlefield in the future and understand the opponent better.

For a moment, Zhai Dakun couldn't help but sigh secretly: "Hey... It seems that he is really old, not as good as young people, and he still looks at problems too one-sidedly, his thinking is too limited, and he is too pedantic. ”

Soon, everyone woke up from the shock, and Qu Kun hurriedly said: "Okay, marshal, after the meeting is over, we will do it immediately." ”

Yang Lin was in a very good mood, a lot of relaxation, he seemed to think of something, and suddenly said to Zhuge Mou: "By the way, Zhuge Staff, wait a minute, after the meeting is dispersed, you first use carrier pigeons to transmit a message, and ask Qi Zhiyuan to send someone to send those people from the Ryukyu Kingdom here." ”

The short order, although it was a little abrupt, everyone understood what Yang Lin wanted to do, and what was his intention? Everyone present, who didn't know that the relationship between Yang Lin and Shang Weier was extraordinary. Yang Lin was able to hold on until now, and only then did he let those Ryukyu envoys out, which was already the greatest patience.

Now at this time, he and others have already rebelled, there is no need to hide it, and there is no need to worry about the impact of releasing those people, what else can the Qing court do? Therefore, no one objected to Yang Lin's dispensable order, and I deeply understood that Shang Weier's performance at the execution ground yesterday was still known to everyone.

These thoughts were fleeting, and they happened in an instant, and after hearing Yang Lin's words, Zhuge Mou immediately said: "Marshal, you can rest assured, your subordinates will definitely handle this matter, if there is no accident, it will probably be close to night, and those people from the Ryukyu Kingdom will be able to reach Guangzhou City." ”

Yang Lin nodded with satisfaction, then stood up, except for Zhai Dakun, the others also immediately stood up, glanced at everyone one by one, and said solemnly: "Everyone, early tomorrow morning, the army will set off for the Northern Expedition, and strive to meet those Fujian Province and Jiangxi's Kongtong Army in the shortest possible time, and then take Zhejiang and Anhui." ”

Speaking of this, as if he had thought of something, Yang Lin patted his head and said suddenly: "By the way, if you tell you to go down, the crops will be about to ripen, and they will be harvested immediately, inform our soldiers, try not to harm the crops." Once it is discovered that someone is deliberately harming the crops. No forgiveness! ”

Everyone also reacted, and then remembered that in July, the crops were about to ripen, and if a large area of crops was really damaged, it would not only lose their own food replenishment, but also their reputation among the people.

Therefore, except for Zhai Dakun, who couldn't speak, everyone else said in unison: "Yes, Marshal, before the army sets off tomorrow, this order must be conveyed to every soldier." ”

Yang Lin didn't stay any longer, and after dropping a sentence, he strode away, left the study, and pushed the door out.

"Okay, everything is arranged, that's it, let's disperse, I'll go back first." (To be continued.) )
