Fengyang Mansion, Ma Shiying's mansion. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Since the last sneak attack on Zhang Feng's people at night, Ma Shiying has always seemed a little uneasy, the last sneak attack, if it succeeded, it was fine, but the sneak attack failed, Ma Shiying himself lost more than 1,000 people, the soldiers lost less, and successfully broke through.

Ma Shiying is a ruthless character, since he has befriended Zhang Feng and has made it clear that he wants to fight against Zhang Feng, Ma Shiying knows that there is no way out, and he must do it to the end.

"Lord Wan, it's been so long, and that Zhang Feng hasn't moved, what do you think?"

Wan Shuping is Ma Shiying's henchman, a master and a think-tank type, very lean, with a mustache and triangular eyes.

Seeing that he asked about himself, Wan Shuping thought for a while and said: "My lord, I think we are worry-free for the time being, and the surname Zhang does not dare to touch us, because I heard that he himself is expanding the new army, and he has no time to take care of us." ”

Hearing this, Ma Shiying said: "This is temporary, I estimate that in another three or five months, his surname Zhang will definitely send troops to attack us." ”

Wan Shuping said: "My lord, three or five months is enough for us, we can take advantage of this period of time to collect the accusations surnamed Zhang, and then go to Wan Sui Ye to refer to him." ”

Behind the black complaint, he shouted first, first Zhang Feng and the army, suddenly, Ma Shiying agreed: "It is worthy of being a million people, the second is a clever plan, we will do this, immediately collect Zhang Feng's crimes, I want to go to Beijing in person, and ruthlessly participate in the surname Zhang's book." ”

Ma Shiying doesn't know Zhang Feng too well, it is not too late for others to be a gentleman to take revenge for ten years, Zhang Feng is a gentleman to take revenge from morning to night, he can't rub a little sand in his eyes, he learned that the people he sent out were attacked by Ma Shiying, he was already angry in his heart, and ordered the General Staff to formulate a military action plan within three days, and as soon as the plan was formulated, the military operation began immediately.

According to the plan of the General Staff, a total of two divisions, the Second Infantry Division and the Third Infantry Division, were dispatched to the north in two directions, aiming directly at Fengyang.

Except for the newly formed Fifth Infantry Division, the rest of the divisions were expanded on the basis of the previous infantry brigades, and were expanded from brigades to infantry divisions.

These 7,000 or 8,000 men were added to some veterans who had been rigorously assessed and selected by the previous guard posts, whether it was the 2nd Infantry Division or the 3rd Infantry Division, and each division had 11,000 or 2,000 men.

The establishment is very perfect, but it is not yet full, and there are still 6 or 7,000 people short of the full strength of more than 18,000 people, and this needs to be supplemented with new soldiers, and after each division is replenished with 6 or 7,000 new soldiers, each division is full.

Even if it is not full, it can be a battle, because the establishment is sound, the framework has been formed, and it is just a slight shortage of personnel.

For example, an infantry platoon has three infantry squads under its jurisdiction, but each squad is not full, and the full strength is 12 people, and now each infantry squad may only have seven or eight people, or only five or six people, and it is necessary to supplement a few recruits in the future and then reach the full strength of 12 people.

Although it is not full, it can still fight, the second infantry division, the third infantry division, the soldiers are divided into two ways to go north, directly to Fengyang Mansion, the soldiers are all equipped with firearms, most of them are rear-loading guns, and some soldiers still use front-loading rifled guns.

There is no way, although the rear-loading gun is good, but the production is insufficient, it is estimated that it will take several months, or nearly a year, to fully complete the reloading.

Ma Shiying thought that Zhang Feng had not moved, in this era of underdeveloped communications, Ma Shiying got the news obviously lagged behind, and the two infantry divisions had been set off for several days before Ma Shiying got the news.

"What, the soldiers are divided into two routes, more than 20,000 people!"

Ma Shiying was shocked, he was greatly surprised, he originally thought that Zhang Feng was busy with the expansion of the new army, and he had no time to take care of himself, so he had no way to send troops north to Fengyang Mansion, but he didn't think that Zhang Feng's people came so quickly, and sent 20,000 thousands of people in one go.

"Quick, gather all the people from more than 100 households to come over and discuss the matter!"

Ma Shiying shouted, and it could be seen from Ma Shiying's expression that Ma Shiying was really a little frightened, why bother in the first place.

………

On the official road leading to Fengyang Mansion, a long army is marching, the military appearance is neat, the pace is neat, all green military uniforms, uniformly wearing standard steel helmets, carrying muskets, in addition to the neat infantry, there are also carriages one by one, and the cars are full of things, and they are tightly covered with tarpaulin.

Wang Chaoyong rode a tall horse, and he was also marching with the army, this time, Zhang Feng did not come over in person, but handed over the task to Wang Chaoyong.

The soldiers were divided into two ways and rushed straight to Fengyang.

A major officer, riding a horse all the way from afar, ran in front of Wang Chaoyong, saluted, and reported: "Chief of General Staff, according to the current pace of marching, it will take three more days to reach the boundary of Fengyang Mansion. ”

Wang Chaoyong nodded a little and asked with concern: "Where is the position of the Third Infantry Division?" ”

The Third Infantry Division followed another official road, and the destination was naturally Fengyang Mansion, and according to the predetermined plan, the two infantry divisions would eventually meet outside the city of Fengyang Mansion.

The major officer reported: "Chief of the General Staff, the 3rd Infantry Division is marching smoothly and will also arrive at the boundary of Fengyang Mansion in three days. ”

"Okay." Everything went well, Wang Chaoyong was relieved, and waved his hand: "Travel for another hour, and then everyone will rest in place." ”

"Yes!"

The major rode his horse and immediately went to convey Wang Chaoyong's order.

This time to lead the troops, Wang Chaoyong attached great importance to it, and did not dare to be careless at all, because Zhang Feng had explained that Ma Shiying could not be allowed to run away, and he must be killed.

The two infantry divisions advanced smoothly along the official road leading to Fengyang Mansion, and the front of the troops pointed directly at Fengyang Mansion.

………

General Military Office.

Wang Chaoyong has already led these two infantry divisions to divide into two routes, and has been setting off for many days, judging from the news passed back, it will arrive at Fengyang Mansion in two or three days.

Although it was only two infantry divisions, and it was not yet full, there were 20,000 thousands of people, armed with either rear-loading muskets or front-loading rifled guns, Zhang Feng was not worried at all, and he would definitely return with a great victory.

Zhang Feng was relieved, and he did not go out with the army, but handed over the task to Wang Chaoyong, Zhang Feng sat in the general military mansion, at this time, bad news came from the north, and there was also an amazing news from the North Korean side, all of which reached Zhang Feng here.

In the north, Sun Chuanting and Li Zicheng fought a big war, Zhang Feng was not optimistic about Sun Chuanting's "train battalion" at the beginning, even if there were more than 20,000 trains, a huge force had been formed, but Zhang Feng was still not optimistic, there were too many uncertain factors on the battlefield, and in addition, Li Zicheng had too many men and horses.

Sure enough, after several defeats, Li Zicheng adopted the strategy of luring the enemy into depth, and took advantage of the rare heavy rain to defeat Sun Chuanting in one fell swoop.

This may be providence, the Central Plains has been in a severe drought, thousands of miles of red land, there has been no rain for a long time, and there is almost no grain harvest, but it is precisely at this time that a rare heavy rain falls.

The heavy rain not only caused muddy roads, but also greatly limited the mobility of the "trains", many of which were stuck in the mud and could not move at all.

Li Zicheng seized this opportunity and dispatched heavy troops to surround Sun Chuanting, who was defeated, with more than 20,000 "trains" almost completely lost, and more than half of 100,000 troops lost.

After reading this information, Zhang Feng slowly said to Meng Mingzhao: "Old Meng, what do you think of the big battle between Sun Chuanting and Li Zicheng. ”

Meng Mingzhao hit the nail on the head and said: "The big war is fought to this point, there is no suspense, Sun Chuanting will definitely be defeated very completely, even if there is Tongguan to defend, but the old man thinks that in front of Li Zicheng's hundreds of thousands of troops, Tongguan is just around the corner." ”

Zhang Feng nodded, Zhang Feng also thought so, it is estimated that because of Zhang Feng, history has changed, but the trend of history has not changed much, but some historical events have been greatly advanced.

In history, Sun Chuanting was defeated, retreated to Tongguan, and then died in Tongguan, Li Zicheng hundreds of thousands of troops broke through the pass into Shaanxi, Shanxi, where he completely gained a firm foothold, used to be mobile to do war, after entering Shaanxi, Li Zicheng stood firm, established a regime, and then out of Tongguan, there was no one to stop, captured the city of Beijing, and the Ming Dynasty perished.

Sun Chuanting was defeated, the Ming Dynasty no longer had a viable military force, and was no longer able to encircle and suppress the Liukou, the Liukou developed rapidly, and Li Zicheng developed to a million people in a short period of time.

Zhang Feng said heavily: "The court is dead, and the Ming Dynasty is dead!" ”

Meng Mingzhao reminded: "Gongzi, the fall of the Ming Dynasty is imminent, we must pay close attention to the development and training of the new army, and develop these 100,000 male divisions." ”

"Hmm." Zhang Feng nodded, the development of these 100,000 male teachers is the top priority.

After the two discussed and exchanged the news about Sun Chuanting's defeat from the north, Meng Mingzhao said: "Childe, how to deal with the problem on the North Korean side?" ”

Zhang Feng said decisively: "Since the current king of Korea is disobedient and has an affair with the Japanese and wants to attack our garrison, then I didn't say anything, kill him, and then support the forces that belong to us and support our loyal spokesmen in Korea." ”

Meng Mingzhao said: "Lord Commander, who will lead the troops in this expedition to Korea?" ”

Zhang Feng didn't have to think about it, and immediately said: "This time, I will personally lead the army, and the first infantry division will go with me." ”

It can be seen that Zhang Feng was angry, moved to kill, and prepared to personally lead the troops to North Korea, kill the now disobedient king of North Korea, and then support his forces and support his spokesman in North Korea.

The order was soon issued, and the 1st Infantry Division was stationed in Songjiang Province, and everyone sorted out their equipment and began to sail to the port of Shanghai to board the ship and prepare for North Korea.

Two days later.

Zhang Feng appeared at the Shanghai Port Wharf with several guards, and next to the wharf, there were steam-powered ships docked one by one, the most conspicuous of which was the "Shanghai" ironclad ship.
