Chapter 79: Zhao'an?
"Leader Tan Feng, I didn't expect you to be such a young hero. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoThis time, our General Voerdan fought with you, and it was quite a pity. In fact, with such an excellent talent as the leader of Tan Feng, why should he become a bandit? We, General Fu Erdan, are still very happy to associate with a young man like the leader of Tan Feng, and are even willing to promote the leader of Tan Feng to become an official of our Qing Dynasty, so that in the future, we will glorify our ancestors and crown our wives and sons! ”
Hearing what this person sent by Fu Erdan said, Tan Feng's eyes rolled for a moment, and he quickly had an idea.
Tan Feng took the initiative to hypocritically say: "Since General Fu Erdan wants to recruit An, I actually have certain ideas. After all, we are only horse thieves, and I don't want to be horse thieves all the time, so that my descendants and ancestors will be ashamed of me, and I also want to clear my identity as a horse thief as soon as possible. However, we still have to discuss the specific matters with our people, so that we can make a decision to reply to General Voerdan. ”
The messenger of Fu Erdan hurriedly said: "Okay, in that case, I will also go and report back to our General Fu Dan, so that we can all continue to discuss." ”
After Fu Erdan's envoy left, Wang Jingwen hurriedly asked, "Commander, why did Fu Erdan take the initiative to ask for Zhao'an this time?" He can ask for support from the rear, why would he rather choose Zhao'an than choose to request support from the rear? ”
Tan Feng replied directly with a few words: "Cover the lid!" ”
"This Fu Erdan is obviously an old bureaucrat. I still understand his thoughts, this time the Manchu Qing Dynasty directly lost 3,008 soldiers, and countless people were injured. If he asked for support, it would be tantamount to telling the news of his incompetence and the loss of so many Eight Banners to the Central Imperial Court. If the court knew that he had lost three thousand eight banners and had been injured countless times, the Manchu court would scold him for his rice bucket. Of course, he didn't want this matter to be exposed, so he naturally had to cover the lid. ”
"The political predicament of the Manchus and ours was almost identical, with a small number of people as the main body and then the vast majority of people. They are all walking a tightrope, which caused the Manchus to not be able to afford to die. If the Manchu court knew that Fu Erdan had lost so much, Fu Erdan would not only have no credit, but would be severely punished. So he won't ask for support unless he has to. ”
"As for Zhao'an, there are just two methods. One is to really recruit him, so that we surrender him, and he can have a way to have enough time for political operations to help him defuse this crisis. However, if we accept Zhao'an, we will inevitably face entering the rotten bureaucratic system of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and when the time comes, the emperor can give us death with an edict. This is the cheapest and easiest way to defeat us, and it can also give him enough time to carry out political operations and resolve the political crisis that the Eight Banners has lost too much this time for him. ”
"Of course, there is another possibility, that is, he intends to borrow Zhao'an to let us relax our vigilance. At that time, once we let down our vigilance, the wounded soldiers of their Eight Banners have been restored, so that after they have regained their combat effectiveness, they have regained their numerical superiority and can take the opportunity to attack us. At that time, we already thought it was peace, so we were bound to let our guard down. Even if we don't let our guard down, they don't think we can quickly mobilize and return to combat conditions. ”
"This Fu Erdan's behavior, if you purely adopt military thinking, it is naturally difficult to understand his series of strange behaviors. Fu Erdan's behavior was actually completely inconsistent with military conventions, and he did not dare to attack because of the numerical superiority, and even did not dare to ask for support, but wanted to recruit An. These actions are actually completely unconventional from a military point of view, but if measured by political thinking, this guy's behavior can be well explained. ”
"If Fu Erdan wants to cover the lid, he naturally won't take the initiative to ask for support from the rear. These Manchu people were the Eight Banners, and they couldn't afford to lose them, so they didn't dare to lose too much. ”
"Our confrontation with Voerdan is actually a military war on the surface, but in fact, it is the opposite, and it is a political war. We cannot be measured purely by military thinking, but more importantly, by political thinking to measure the other side's purpose. ”
Tan Feng stood up, then took two steps back and forth, and said, "Jingwen, let's change the plan, let's change the plan we made before." Now that Voerdan already has this idea of covering the lid, we might as well take advantage of it. He wants to cover the lid, so we can make good use of his idea for our benefit. I'll do the next preparations for peace talks with Voerdan, you go and make a plan for me, and we will launch a surprise attack to occupy the entire northeast region. ”
"This time, we still have to play to our greatest strength, which is the strength of the organizational system. They do not understand the source of our combat effectiveness, and obviously mistakenly believe that our combat effectiveness comes from the elite soldiers. Since they don't understand, let's make good use of our advantages to achieve our goals. ”
Tan Feng quickly asked Wang Jingwen to make a plan accordingly, since this Fu Erdan has this idea of bureaucratic covering, of course he has to take advantage of this approach. In the final analysis, this confrontation with Voerdain was actually a political war, and the military battle was only used as an auxiliary to the political confrontation. The dilemma of both sides is the same, and they are both relatively insufficient troops, which has caused both sides to adopt the same methods to deal with them, and they are both passive confrontations. Tan Feng is generally not sure enough and will not take the initiative to attack. But Fu Erdan is the same, he is also worried that if he takes the initiative to attack and forces Tan Feng to jump over the wall, the consequences will be unimaginable.
The most precious thing on both sides is manpower, so in order to ensure that manpower is not lost, both sides calculate each other. Passive combat on the battlefield, but each has his own ********* to tell Fu Erdan that I have a few conditions, and as long as he agrees to my conditions, I can choose to accept Zhao'an. Tan Feng said to Fu Erdan's messenger.
However, Tan Feng turned around and said, "Jingwen, hurry up and make a plan, we will take the opportunity to sneak attack this time and seize the entire Northeast." There are about 200,000 Han Chinese in the northeast, so we can take advantage of the opportunity to develop and grow. If Voerdan himself dies, then of course we must seize this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Otherwise, how can you be worthy of this 'good friend' Fu Erdan of our Han people! ”
