After careful consideration, Li Yuanqing finally decided to transfer the sixth merchant to Changsheng Island, coordinate 500 soldiers, and overview a series of construction work of Lu Dadao and craftsmen.

At this point, the efficiency of concealed construction was obviously too slow, and Li Yuanqing directly gave a new order to Shang Lao Liu, which could vigorously build defensive measures in the two outpost positions of Nanxinkou and Beixinkou.

In fact, although the freezing period is terrible, it is not without a solution.

In addition to the most primitive man-made ice chisel, there is also a very simple method, which is similar to some lawbreakers in later generations, and fry fish under the frozen lake.

In each small hole, fill the explosives ~ charge, use the vibration generated by the explosion of the explosives ~ drugs to crack the ice surface that has been chiseled out of the small holes, and then clean up the ice by hand.

This method saves time and effort, and also saves labor, but at this time, high-intensity explosive ~ medicine has obviously not yet come out, gunpowder, Li Yuanqing is not very proficient, but according to Li Yuanqing's understanding of this era, at this time, even if there is no high-intensity explosive ~ medicine in later generations, there are still some performance gunpowder, Chinese civilization, from a very early age, has been used in many aspects of life, such as mining.

Since ancient times, mining is a kind of profiteering business, in the early Ming Dynasty, this kind of business is still controlled in the hands of the imperial court, but from the middle and late Ming Dynasty, has been widely spread to the folk landlords, to the end of the Ming Dynasty, these trades, basically controlled in the hands of the landlords.

At this time, Li Yuanqing was not very easy to get into these mineral deposits in Liaodi, but in the land of Denglai, as long as there was silver, there was enough room for operation.

As long as one or two craftsmen in this area can be poached, they will definitely get twice the result with half the effort when it comes to breaking the ice.

And in terms of the defense of Immortal Island, if you can have a few red-clothed cannons......

It's a pity that Li Yuanqing didn't have time to think carefully about his local construction plan, and at this time, Chen Zhong's messenger hurried to Changsheng Island to inform Li Yuanqing that in the second half of the first month, the main force of the old slave had been dispatched.

Li Yuanqing originally thought that this Houjin spring offensive should be the same as last year, at least he had to wait until the end of February and early March.

At this time, Chen Zhong had already led his troops to Lushun in advance and joined up with the Zhangpan Department, and he urged Li Yuanqing to lead the headquarters to Lushun as soon as possible, and the time was urgent.

How dare Li Yuanqing slack off, he didn't have time to wait for Shang Lao Liu to come to Changsheng Island, so he directly ordered Xu Heizi to temporarily coordinate the work of Changsheng Island, and after Shang Lao Liu arrived, he went directly to Lushunkou.

The sailors were at full speed, and Li Yuanqing rushed back to Guanglu Island overnight.

At this time, Shang Lao Liu had already gone to Changsheng Island, and on Guanglu Island, there were only 700 soldiers left, as well as thousands of old and weak women and children.

The situation was critical, and Li Yuanqing didn't have time to make too many arrangements, so he directly ordered Zhang Yunniang and Qu Minqiu to temporarily take charge of the government affairs of Guangludao, and Li Yuanqing himself directly led the 700 soldiers to Lushun.

At the same time, Li Yuanqing sent a clipper to inform Guancanghai in Heidao and asked him to lead his troops, mainly to bring more ships, to Lushun as soon as possible to stand by.

The originally slow pace of life was quickly raised to the highest critical point because of the clouds of war.

On the evening of the first day of February, Li Yuanqing led 700 soldiers to Lushunkou.

Zhang Pan and Chen Zhong had been waiting here for a long time, and hurriedly came out to greet them.

Li Yuanqing and Zhang Pan are also familiar with each other, although the two don't have much experience fighting side by side, but because of Chen Zhong's face, the two quickly got rid of their raw points and became acquainted.

After a brief dinner, the three of them discussed specific action strategies at Zhang Pan's station.

At this time, on the Quang Ninh side, the Ming army arranged a total of three lines of defense.

The first line of defense is to use the natural power and use the Liao River to pull up the first barrier, but at this time, although the center of the Liao River is thawed, both sides of the river bank are still in the freezing period.

The second line of defense is to use several large forts such as Xiping Fort, Zhenwu Fort, and Zhenning Fort on the periphery of Guangning City, combined with several small forts around it, to form a line to form a second artificial defense line.

The third line of defense is the Quang Ninh City Defense.

At this time, according to the latest intelligence from the front, the more than 60,000 troops of the main force of the old slave had just been assembled and arrived at the first line of defense of the Sancha River, and had not yet approached the first line of defense of the Liao River.

Chen Zhong and Zhang Pan were very optimistic about the defensive strategy and situation of the Ming army.

After all, on the side of the Guangning army, there are more than 130,000 troops, while on the side of the old slave, there are only a little more than 60,000.

And the Ming army has a favorable geographical situation, such as Xiping Fort, Zhenwu Fort and other big forts, than ordinary cities, it is easier to defend and difficult to attack. Because they are completely military forts, the purpose of their establishment is to focus on military defense.

But Li Yuanqing always had some inexplicable worries in his heart.

Although he knew that there would be a fiasco in Shaling, Li Yuanqing did not know the specific time.

Before the end of the New Year, the old slave was so excited, presumably, in terms of Houjin, the preparations should be very sufficient.

With the experience of the fall of Shenyang, Li Yuanqing always had an instinctive suspicion about the Ming army's defensive system.

For example, Shenyang City, the city is not high, the walls are not thick, the soldiers are not many, the weapons are not advanced enough, dozens of red-coated cannons, the Houjin army at that time, I am afraid they have never seen it.

Moreover, at that time, the reinforcements of the Zhejiang soldiers and the white pole soldiers were on the road, only a few days away, but even so, in less than two days, Shenyang was completely defeated, and there was no decent resistance process at all.

Liaoyang, on the other hand, only lasted 3 or 4 days.

The most important thing is that the newly appointed Shangshu of the Ministry of War and the left deputy capital Yushi Xiong Tingbi do not seem to be so harmonious with Wang Huazhen, the governor of Liaodong.

Under such a situation, how can Li Yuanqing feel at ease?

"Yuanqing, are you too pessimistic? My Guangning army is strong and strong, even if the Houjin Tartar is brave, but if you want to get a bargain from my Guangning army, it is not so easy. ”

Seeing Li Yuanqing's worried expression, Zhang Pan patted Li Yuanqing's shoulder with a smile, "Old Chen, Yuanqing, look." ”

Zhang Pan pointed to the map, "The main force of the red flag in southern Liaoning has all followed the old slave to the west, and our three divisions are now strong and strong, so we can first map Nanguan, and then force Jinzhou, and when we take Jinzhou, we can directly sweep the hinterland of southern Liaoning and coerce Fuzhou City." According to my information, there are less than 1,000 Tartars in Fuzhou City, and most of them are Han military banners, so we have a lot to do. ”

Chen Zhong nodded thoughtfully, Zhang Pan's strategy was very steady, steady and steady, and approached the hinterland of southern Liaoning, which coincided with his thoughts.

"Lao Zhang, this is the safest way. Now that Yuanqing is also here, without further ado, we can do it to Nanguan tomorrow. Just a small amount of land, half a day should be enough to take it. ”

Chen Zhongzhi was complacent, and obviously he was very confident in the combat power of the soldiers under his command.

After the two finished speaking, they couldn't help but smile at each other, as if they could already predict tomorrow's big victory.

But Li Yuanqing didn't speak, as if he was out of the world, and didn't care about what the two said.

Zhang Pan's respect for Li Yuanqing is just face, after all, the two do not have a deep relationship.

Although Li Yuanqing has made a lot of meritorious contributions under Mao Wenlong, he and Zhang Pan are almost two systems, this kind of meritorious service, many times, it is inevitable that it will be exaggerated, Zhang Pan only thinks that Li Yuanqing has some ability and can fight, but that's all.

After all, he is much older than Li Yuanqing's qualifications.

Seeing that Li Yuanqing had not spoken at this time, Zhang Pan's face was already a little unhappy.

But Chen Zhong is Li Yuanqing's brother, eldest brother, the two have gone all the way, he has a personal experience of Li Yuanqing's ability, at this time, seeing Li Yuanqing like this, Chen Zhong hurriedly asked in a low voice: "Yuanqing, what do you think about this matter?" ”

Li Yuanqing let out a long breath of turbidity, of course he saw Zhang Pan's face, straightened his mind, and then said: "The two brothers are right, forcing Jinzhou from Nanguan is indeed the safest way." It's just that I'm worried that the old slave won't give us so much time to force us to Fuzhou City. ”

Seeing that Li Yuanqing opened his mouth, Zhang Pan's face softened a lot, and he couldn't help but smile, "Yuanqing, you don't have to worry about this matter." With more than 60,000 people and no wings, how could it be possible to break through the dense defense line of Quang Ninh? I estimate that even if the old slave wants to fight under the city of Guangning, it will take at least two months, or even more than three months, and we have plenty of time to prepare in southern Liaoning. ”

Li Yuanqing looked at Zhang Pan's confident appearance, his throat moved, and after a moment, he smiled: "That's the case, then as the two brothers said, tomorrow, let's go to the pass." ”

…………

Lushun is a famous tourist attraction in later generations, and the ecological environment at this time has not been polluted by modern science and technology, and it is full of the most primitive style of nature.

Coming out of Zhang Pan's station, Li Yuanqing did not go back to the camp directly, but came to the beach.

The night sky in the distance is clear and translucent, and with the naked eye, you can see the bright stars, the Big Dipper, Leo, Scorpio......

Not far away, under the ice, the waves are undulating, gently lapping against the shore, making rhythmic 'swish' sounds.

Although the weather was a little wet and cold, in this environment, Li Yuanqing's mood was also a little brighter.

People eat as much food as they have stomachs.

At this time, although Li Yuanqing was already on the same level as Zhang Pan, Zhang Pan was old after all, and Li Yuanqing did not want to conflict with Zhang Pan before accurate information was transmitted back from the front.

In the midst of China, tens of millions of people, why was the little Jurchen so embarrassed?

To a large extent, it was really the internal struggle of the Ming Dynasty, which was too fierce and consumed too much vitality.

In the court, no one is convinced by anyone.

In Liaodi, the generals looked down on a mud-legged officer like Li Yuanqing.

It is Mao Wenlong, who is also firmly on Wang Huazhen's side, and violates Xiong Tingbi's yin and yang.

Needless to say, the Guangning Army Headquarters is under the command of the emerging Mao Wenlong, some people are old, some people are young, and some people are shallow, this kind of unspeakable thing is like an invisible shackle, which is really very unpleasant.

Frankly speaking, Zhang Pan's strategy is not wrong.

But he is based on an important premise, the main force of the Quang Ninh Army Headquarters, must be able to resist the Houjin Army for 2 months or more.

But can the Quang Ninh Army Headquarters really do it?

Even if Zhang Pan gradually advanced, defeated Nanguan, defeated Jinzhou, and even conquered Fuzhou City, but ~~, once the war in western Liaoning ended, the main force of the Houjin army returned to southern Liaoning, with the strength of Zhang Pan, can it defeat the main force of Houjin?

Of course, Li Yuanqing also fully understands Zhang Pan's thoughts, after all, Lushun is his governing land, gradually advancing, steady and steady, this merit of recovering the land, not only him, but Mao Wenlong, also can't refuse.

But they all seem to have forgotten how Zhenjiang City was lost that day......

With a long breath of turbidity, Li Yuanqing's eyes became clearer.

At this time, in this state, there is no first-hand accurate information from the front, and in order to maintain the overall situation, Li Yuanqing can only be patient for the time being.

"Yuanqing, why did you come here? Come, take a sip. I don't know when, Chen Zhong came to Li Yuanqing's side with a smile and handed Li Yuanqing a small wine jug.
