At the same time that Chen Youlong convened a military meeting, thousands of miles away in Jiangxi, another military conference was also underway. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

In Fengcheng County, Nanchang Prefecture, the battalions of Huguang Town, which went north from Ji'an, set up a Ming camp in this generation. The night sky was brightly lit, and the sporadic lanterns filled the wilderness, like the Milky Way reflected on the earth.

In the tent of the Chinese army, all the battalion officers were present. On the large map in the center, you can see the situation of both the enemy and the enemy at a glance.

After taking Ji'an at the beginning of this month, after a little rest, Pang Yue began to wave his army north to Nanchang. And since learning that Ji'an was lost, Tan Tai has been paying attention to the movements of Huguang Town all the time, and tens of thousands of troops have naturally not been able to hide from him for long at this time.

As soon as the vanguard of the Huguang Town army entered Linjiang Mansion, they continued to discover the rangers of the Qing army, and the outposts of the two sides fought all the way, winning and losing each other. As soon as he entered the territory of Nanchang Mansion, there was a scout report, and the main force of the Qing army was found in front.

After the two armies discovered each other's existence, they immediately sent outposts to compete for a series of key terrain in the vicinity, and finally gained and lost each other, forming a confrontation situation. At this time, if you stand on a high place and look north from the camp in Huguang Town, you can see that less than 20 miles away is also a continuous camp with brilliant lights.

After the continuous testing before, Pang Yue and his main generals have basically been able to see that most of the troops He Luohui came to test the reality of Huguang Town, judging from the current deployment of troops, there is not much intention to desperately intercept, but it will not easily let Huguang Town take advantage.

However, no matter what He Luohui's true intentions were, if Huguang Town wanted to go north to relieve the siege of Nanchang as soon as possible, a head-to-head confrontation between the two armies was inevitable.

At tonight's military meeting, Pang Yue first took the lead in summing up the gains and losses of a series of small-scale battles with the Qing army these days, and then announced the purpose and general arrangements for tomorrow's operation, and assigned specific combat tasks one by one in accordance with the combat plan drawn up by the General Staff Division. The officers of each battalion did not have any objections, but a few battalions put forward some suggestions for fine-tuning according to the actual situation of their battalions, and Pang Yue adopted them after listening carefully, and made corresponding improvements in the combat plan.

The whole military discussion did not last long, it was simple and efficient. This is also the style that Pang Yue has always advocated, and if he can finish talking about business as soon as possible, he will never say more nonsense.

But after tonight's military meeting, Pang Yue did not rush to announce the dismissal of the meeting, but chatted with his subordinates in a rare way.

"Zhou Ming, I remember that you said before you set out on the expedition that this time you must take down the heads of Tan Tai and He Luohui, and let the tens of thousands of Tartars who invaded the south leave their lives behind. There's such a thing, right? Pang Yue looked at Shi Youliang.

"Dashuai's memory is really good, I said this is true, I drank some wine at the time, so I blew the cowhide bigger." Hearing that Pang Yue had something to do in advance, Shi Youliang's expression couldn't help but be a little embarrassed, "Don't mention this stubble in the future, and save some face for me." ”

Laughter erupted all around.

"You big guy, you have a lot of thoughts. But don't think about it, I didn't say anything when you said that. Pang Yue also laughed, and after saying that, Shi Youliang looked at the others present, "Now let's talk about it, what is Lao Shi's idea?" ”

"It's too rare and modest for him to say this, if he follows his usual style, if he doesn't kill 180,000 enemies at a time, he will be embarrassed to greet people when he goes out." Lu Qiwu smiled playfully, as if he was unwilling to let go of any opportunity to reveal his scars.

In front of this old enemy, Shi Youliang naturally refused to suffer, and decisively glared at him and scolded him. Both sides were not to be outdone, but fortunately, Zhang Yunli, Cui Shoucheng and others came out in time to play a round, so as to avoid the Chinese military tent from becoming a tea bar wine shop.

"It seems that everyone thinks that Lao Shi's idea is too bold and his appetite is too big." Pang Yue said, "There is nothing wrong with thinking so, after all, we have all personally experienced each battle, and we know the changes in the battlefield, the difficulty of using troops, and the hardships of annihilating the enemy to win." The myths of retiring a thousand soldiers with a wave of his hand, and killing a million soldiers with a stomp of his feet, can only appear in the drama and in the mouth of the storyteller. ”

Once again, everyone in the room burst into laughter. Except, of course, Shi Youliang.

Pang Yue glanced around everyone with a smile, and continued to say unhurriedly: "However, what I want to tell you at this moment is that what Lao Shi said at the beginning is exactly what I thought in my heart."

There was a sudden silence in the tent, and you could almost hear a needle falling to the ground.

Except for Pang Yue and Zhang Yunli, the generals present were almost stunned. A few people's smiles didn't even have time to be withdrawn, they just froze on their faces, their mouths open, and their expressions were really strange.

The handsome man doesn't play cards according to common sense! At this moment, there is almost such a voice hovering in everyone's hearts.

Pang Yue saw everyone's surprised expressions, but he was not surprised, and continued: "I know that you are more or less surprised. The strategic purpose announced by the General Staff Department was to annihilate the Qing army in southern Jiangxi, relieve the siege of Nanchang, and repel the enemy who invaded south, and a series of subsequent tactical arrangements were also carried out around this. Now that the Qing army in southern Jiangxi has been annihilated, and Nanchang is also in sight, I have proposed to completely annihilate the enemy who invaded the south, and it is understandable that you are a little caught off guard. But please be assured that my audacious idea did not come on a whim, nor was it just an empty idea. Long before I set out on the expedition, I set this goal together with Vice General Zhang, and I had already drawn up a preliminary battle plan for this. ”

This general goal was indeed set by Pang Yue before he set out on the expedition, and the reason why it was not announced immediately was because he asked his subordinates to fight with a heavy ideological burden from the beginning. And now, Ji'an has been won, and the army is straight to Guichang, and this goal is no longer so unattainable for Huguang Town.

The expressions of the generals in the military tent changed from surprise to solemnity. It was indeed a bit of a surprise when they first heard the idea, but their long-term followers had already built their trust in coach Pang Yue. No matter how bold the idea or how ambitious the goal, as long as Pang Yue decided to do it, there was no reason why they should not go all out.

"The reason why I have this idea is not that I am willing to give up the easy, but that the current Daming needs to take a breath too much." Pang Yue's voice was not high, and the speed of speech was not fast, but every word was also loud to everyone, "If it is only for the purpose of repelling the enemy who invaded the south, it is indeed easier to do, the current foundation of the Tartars is not in the south, as long as it is blocked for a long time, it will naturally retreat, just like the battle of Changheng at the beginning of last year." But you must know that the Manchurian Tatars are definitely the most vicious enemies encountered in Chinese history, more ferocious than the Turks, Khitans, Mongols, and so on. They are by no means satisfied with going south to fight the grass valley, it is their ultimate goal to encroach on Kyushu and let all the Han people in the world comb them as slaves, and they will never stop until this goal is achieved. If we just push them off, they'll come back next year. Now that Daming is only left with a few ruined provinces, can it withstand several such successive tosses? ”

The generals present clenched their fists involuntarily.

Pang Yue stood up from his seat: "And what is in front of us right now is a great opportunity. The Tartars who invaded the south this time included nearly 20,000 eight banners and more than 30,000 green battalions, and nearly half of the elite battalions in Beizhili, Shanxi, and Jiangsu and Zhejiang were transferred. As long as we can let all these people leave their lives behind, we will not worry about letting the Tartars stop for two years, and give Daming and Huguang Town a period of time to recuperate and accumulate national and military strength. ”

There was a surge of wind and pride in the calm tone.

Inside the military tent, all the generals got up, and the sound of the collision of the armor leaves rang out.

"Shuai, don't say anything. Whatever you plan, the brothers will do with you. It's all on this, of course you have to do a big job! Shi Youliang said.

"Although the Tartars have slightly more troops than our army, they are drawn from all over the country, and our army is familiar with it this time. In my opinion, this idea of the big marshal is not bold. There's a lot to be done in this battle! Lu Qiwu said.

"Since following Da Shuai, Mou has never doubted Da Shuai's decision!" Choi Shou Cheng Dao.

……

Looking at the passionate faces in front of him and the firm eyes, Pang Yue was also excited at this moment.
