At the beginning of the morning of the next day, the military meeting was held on time in the Tieshan official hall. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

What is different from usual is that outside the main hall of the small official hall, the number of soldiers of the main generals is obviously much more than usual.

According to the usual practice, in the Dongjiang headquarters, only at the level of Chen Jisheng, when attending the meeting, can the pro-soldiers be brought to the main hall to wait, and the rest of the lower-level generals can only arrange their pro-soldiers in the front yard of the official hall.

But at this time, in the front yard of the official hall and near the door of the main hall, I am afraid that hundreds of people have gathered.

And once you get to the main hall, there must be at least two or three hundred people.

These soldiers were all elites, although they did not wear iron armor and carried heavy weapons, but each of them had a solemn expression, and their hands were always pressed tightly on the hilt of the knife, and the slaughter was terrifying.

Even a person with a big heart can feel that today's atmosphere is really a little unusual.

In the official hall, Mao Wenlong is the first, Li Yuanqing is on the left, and Chen Zhong is on the right.

There are fewer generals today than there were yesterday, almost forty or fifty people, all of whom are guerrilla and above-level officers with real power.

Most of the lieutenant-ranking officers are not qualified to attend the meeting today.

At this time, everyone had arrived, but no one had spoken, and everyone was sitting quietly in their seats, waiting quietly.

Mao Wenlong took out the pocket watch given to him by Li Yuanqing and glanced at it, his expression was a little hideous and solemn.

Mao Wenlong knew very well that as long as he said the opening remarks, he would start the largest and most critical stand in the history of the Dongjiang Army.

But the matter has come to this point, and the arrow is on the string, and he can no longer hesitate.

After a moment, he let out a long breath of turbidity and glanced at everyone: "Yuan Qing, Chen Zhong, brothers, have you considered the thoughts left during yesterday's military meeting?" ”

Li Yuanqing looked at his nose and nose, and his nose looked at his heart, like an old monk in his mind.

Next to him, Chen Zhongyi arched his hand and got up and said: "Marshal, Yuanqing, brothers, at this time, I am afraid that the Tartars are already approaching Seoul, and I can't wait!" Even if we don't fight the Tartars at this time, we must keep the pressure on them! Dashuai, in my humble and humble opinion, our actions on our side must be accelerated. ”

Mao Wenlong nodded slowly, but he was not in a hurry to make a statement, but looked at the people in front of him.

Chen Jisheng knew that it was time for him to speak, so he got up and said, "Chen Shuai, I don't know what Chen Shuai thinks?" How to enter the army to maintain pressure? ”

Chen Zhong said: "Deputy General Chen, a certain thief thinks that our army should be stuck in the node of the official road, with the support of the official road, gradually move forward, fight steadily, and gradually set up camp. Dashuai, Chen Zhong is not talented, he is willing to be the vanguard of the army and enter the hinterland of the DPRK ~ Xian first! ”

Mao Wenlong's eyelids blinked slightly, and he nodded slowly, "Chen Zhong, do you have any arrangements for the route of the army?" ”

Chen Zhong had already had a case, and said busily: "Marshal, I think that our army is relying on the official road, gradually advancing in a point manner, connecting with each other, taking into account the beginning and the end, not in a hurry, to ensure that the rear supplies are safely on the line!" ”

Mao Wenlong nodded slowly, "Yes." ”

Chen Zhong knelt respectfully and saluted, "Xie Dashuai!" ”

At this time, Zhang Pan also came out and said: "Dashuai, I am willing to go hand in hand with Chen Shuai, as a support, to open the way for the headquarters!" ”

Mao Wenlong's face was expressionless, he was silent for about ten seconds, and said lightly: "But! ”

Chen ~ Liangce also stepped out quickly, and said respectfully: "Dashuai, I am willing to go hand in hand with Chen Shuai and Zhang Pan, rely on the guards, and open the way for the headquarters!" ”

Mao Wenlong was still expressionless, "But! ”

Chen ~ Liangce was busy and knelt down respectfully and saluted, "Xie Dashuai!" ”

As the three of them returned to their positions, the hall suddenly fell silent.

Everyone understood at this time, this is ......

Mao Wenlong glanced at everyone, "But there are still people who want to enter the army?" ”

There was a dead silence in the hall, and for more than a minute, no one said a word.

Mao Wenlong looked at Li Yuanqing, "Yuanqing, what arrangements do you have?" ”

Li Yuanqing hurriedly bowed his hand respectfully and said: "Handsome, there is no arrangement for the humble position." Everything is up to the boss's arrangement! ”

Mao Wenlong let out a long breath of turbidity, "Yuanqing, although your headquarters has not arrived, there is already an elite stay in the city, and you can march together with Chen Zhong, Zhang Pan, and Chen ~ Liangce, and use each other as horns to ensure that our army's formation is stable!" ”

Li Yuanqing hurriedly came out of the queue and knelt on one knee, "Humble duty and obey the orders of the marshal!" ”

Everyone also understood at this time that the Vanguard Group had come out.

Mao Wenlong said: "With the Yuanqing Fourth Department as the vanguard, our army will have more time and spare strength to draw materials and make up for the soldiers!" Pass on our military order, and the whole army will rest in Iron Mountain for five days! Five days later, the main force of the elite army marched towards Seoul! ”

"Yes!"

The generals in the hall fell to their knees!

…………

The military discussion ended quickly, and I was afraid that it would not last for half an hour, so Mao Wenlong used the excuse of fatigue and contracted the cold, so he went back to the back hall to rest first.

Chen Zhong said with a smile: "Brothers, the war is coming, Chen, as a pioneer, will take the lead!" After finding a proper camping site and the main force of the headquarters also arrived, Chen asked his brother to drink again! ”

Everyone responded one after another, Chen Zhong smiled and took the lead in leaving the official hall.

Zhang Pan and Chen ~ Liangce did the same, and left in a hurry.

Everyone's eyes couldn't help but instinctively look at Li Yuanqing.

Li Yuanqing smiled: "Brothers, Yuanqing will take the first step and pave the way for the brothers, and when we break through the Tartars, we will drink the celebration wine together!" ”

"Li Shuai must be!"

"Li Shuai, I borrowed your auspicious words!"

"Li Shuai ......"

Li Yuanqing smiled and bowed his hands to the generals one by one, and strode out of the hall.

Soon, the originally dense pro-soldiers dispersed a lot in an instant, and the entire courtyard outside the hall suddenly became spacious.

Looking at Li Yuanqing's tall back, Chen Jisheng shook his head indescribably and let out a long low sigh.

…………

At noon that day, he led the personal guard battalion and Kong Youde's department to leave the city from the north gate of Tieshan and go to the direction of the official road to the north.

As early as before, Chen Zhong, Zhang Pan, and Chen ~ Liangce had already left the city.

Kong Youde's department is an extremely elite comprehensive combat team under Li Yuanqing and the Changsheng Battalion, and the ratio of pikemen, bird guns, and sword and shield soldiers is about 'three five two', which is very suitable for comprehensive operations, second only to Duan Xiliang's 1,000th Corps.

In addition, he arrived in advance, and there has been a certain amount of time to prepare, whether it is manpower or food and grass, it is just in time.

In addition, the weather is good today, there is no snow, although the wind is not small, but the visibility is very high, the team almost did not stop, after the north gate of Tieshan, all the way to the north.

Li Yuanqing rode on the horse, looking at the magnificent world under the cold wind in front of him, and his mood couldn't help but brighten.

If you want to change, labor pains are inevitable!

Even if Mao Wenlong is in the way in front, for the sake of the overall situation and the general trend, Li Yuanqing can only be ruthless!

At the head of the city, Mao Wenlong was wearing a thick deerskin hat, watching Li Yuanqing's team go away, and between his eyebrows and eyes, he couldn't help but get older.

On the side, Chen Jisheng said a little weakly: "Marshal, Yuanqing, Yuanqing, they have gone away, let's go back." ”

Mao Wenlong nodded slowly, "Let's go." ”

With that, without looking back, he strode up the dilapidated steps of the city wall.

Chen Jisheng took one last look at the banner of the Changsheng Camp that had almost fallen below the horizon, shook his head a little weakly, and let out a long breath of turbidity.

In the evening.

Li Yuanqing's team had already left Tieshan City for ten miles, and chose a soothing hillside to camp underneath.

In less than a mile ahead, there are already three camps, which are standing in full swing, which are Chen Zhong, Zhang Pan, and Chen ~ Liangce.

The main reason is that the wind is too strong, and there is an agreement with Chen Zhong and the three of them, otherwise, according to the foot strength of the children of the Changsheng Camp, at this time, at least fifteen miles can be walked.

Not long after, Chen Zhong and the three of them each brought a few personal soldiers and hurried to Li Yuanqing's side.

At this time, although the cold wind was strong, Chen Zhong and the three of them were in good spirits, especially Zhang Pan and Chen ~ Liangce, who could obviously feel their happy mood as if they were out of the cage.

But Chen Zhong was still a little unable to let go, and whispered to Li Yuanqing: "Yuanqing, today's road, I'm tired of walking!" ”

Li Yuanqing smiled and patted Chen Zhong's shoulder, "Big brother, you have to take this step." This victory, I want to give it to Dashuai! ”

Chen Zhong also understood Li Yuanqing's intentions, nodded emphatically, and said no more.

The tent was soon erected and the bonfire was lit.

Li Yuanqing and the four of them came to the big tent, and while waiting for the firefighters to cook, they unfolded the map and began to discuss the specific next move.

At this time, although the main force of the Later Jin Dynasty had entered the hinterland of ~ Xian for six or seven days, they still had a large number of sentry spies in the follow-up direction of Tieshan to monitor the movements of the Ming army at any time.

At this time, the main force of the Ming army was dispatched in an orderly manner, and they did not dare to mess around, but if it was a single soldier or a small group of Ming troops, they were afraid that they would never let it go.

At this time, the weather was cold, the camp of the Ming army was not stable, and the sentinels were not spread, and in this regard, they were already at an absolute disadvantage.

Zhang Pan looked at the map, frowned and said, "Yuanqing, Lao Chen, Liangzi, according to this situation, we are afraid that we will not be able to travel ten miles every day." The time for the handsome to rest is only five days, if we only go out of fifty miles, next, I am afraid that the difficulty is not small! ”

Chen ~ Liangce was not as pessimistic as Zhang Pan, and said with a smile: "Lao Zhang, what do you say are you nervous about?" Let's go slowly, and the handsome side will definitely not be fast. Even if we open the way in front, Dashuai's side will be ten miles a day at most. ”

As for the action power of the Dongjiang headquarters, no one knows better than Chen ~ Liangce, a veteran oilman.

Without mules and horses, supplies can only be carried on the head and shoulders, how can this marching speed be up?

Li Yuanqing said: "Speed is not a problem. What we have is time. However, these Tartar sentries are really a bit annoying! ”

Chen Zhong said: "Yuanqing, otherwise, after our camp is stabilized, I will send someone to rush a wave?" ”

Li Yuanqing shook his head, "This matter is not in a hurry. We have just gained a foothold, but these Tartars have been here for more than ten days, and they have passed rashly, and it is not worth it to waste their lives. ”

Chen Zhong said: "Yuanqing, I'm afraid that these dog crumbs may harass our supply lines tomorrow!" ”

Li Yuanqing smiled: "I'm still afraid that they won't come!" From tomorrow onwards, the soldiers will march with the auxiliaries. My Immortal Battalion is in front, Brother Zhang, Brother Chen, you and my Big Brother Department are following behind. If you have the opportunity, take some Tartar heads that don't know whether they are alive or dead, and avoid teeth! ”

The three of them immediately understood what Li Yuanqing meant, and nodded hurriedly.

Although they didn't know what means Li Yuanqing was going to use to deal with these annoying Houjin sentinels, Li Yuanqing and the prestige of the Immortal Camp were here, and they instinctively chose to trust.

At this time, the expedition had just begun, and although the Tieshan area was also regarded as the 'homeland' of the Ming Dynasty, the Ming army was mainly defensive after all, and it was unlucky to rashly send sentinels to attack, and it would lose manpower when they came up.

These brothers, who followed him Li Yuanqing, wanted to eat meat, but they didn't want to eat ashes and die.

The four of them carefully determined the specific route of tomorrow's march.

Li Yuanqing said: "Three elder brothers, my immortal camp is here to take the lead, and some problems may be solved for the time being." But these Tartar sentries are really haunting, and we have to find a way to get these miscellaneous pieces away! ”
