Su Tiancheng returned to Dengzhou Mansion, and everyone had already concentrated in the Governor's Mansion, including the left deputy imperial envoy, Jiangning Battalion Du Commander Tongzhi, the chief military officer of the Navy Division Sun Chuanting, the left deputy imperial envoy, Jiangning Battalion commander Tongzhi Bi Maokang, the left deputy imperial envoy, Jiangning Battalion commander Tongzhi, Weihaiwei Chief Military Officer Xiong Zijian, the right deputy imperial envoy, Jiangning battalion commander Tongzhiqu Qingze, the left deputy imperial envoy, Jiangning battalion commander and Dengzhou guard commander Luo Chang, the left imperial envoy, Jiangning battalion commander and Liu Tiehan, Di Huaixiang, the commander of the right and the commander of the Shenji battalion, He Renlong, the commander of the infantry battalion, Ma Xianglin, the commander of the forward battalion, and Wu Sangui, the chief officer of Shanhaiguan.

Deng Hui, the prefect of Dengzhou, and Liu Chongsan, the same governor, also waited at the prefect's yamen and did not go out.

The Governor's Mansion is already heavily guarded, ordinary people are not allowed to enter, and Penglai City has become a forbidden place.

This is an atmosphere before the war, but Dengzhou has not been affected by anything, the street is still bustling, more lively than usual, it is already on the twentieth edge of the lunar month, the people are going to start preparing for the New Year, it is soon the Spring Festival, the day of family reunion, this year many farmers have made money, life is good, but also to celebrate.

Su Tiancheng returned to the Governor's Mansion, but he didn't have time to wash, so he went directly to the wing.

Qu Qingze had already informed everyone to come to the wing room, and when everyone entered the wing room, Su Tiancheng was concentrating on looking at the information on the table, while looking at the information, facing the sand table in the middle of the wing room, and the map hanging on the wall.

After everyone entered the house, they didn't speak, they stood silently, and everyone knew very well that at this time, Su Tiancheng was thinking seriously. The combat plans of the sailors and the cavalry are all in Su Tiancheng's hands, although Su Tiancheng is already familiar with these combat plans, but if you really want to start acting, you still need to think carefully. Make the last decision.

Half an hour passed, Su Tiancheng seemed to be an old monk, he didn't speak, kept a movement for a long time, bent over, and looked at the sand table carefully.

Finally, Su Tiancheng straightened his waist.

"Come here, all of you."

A simple sentence made everyone start to get nervous, and they knew it. This sentence means that Su Tiancheng has made the final decision, the war is imminent, Dengzhou, Laizhou and Qingzhou will all be at full speed to serve this war. This is a comprehensive assessment to test the construction situation of the three localities over the past year or so.

"All of you. will all participate in this battle, related deployment. It has already been implemented, and we will not revise it today, but you must remember that this is a crucial battle, related to the development of Dengzhou, Laizhou and Qingzhou, if we cannot win it completely. In the future, we will face even greater difficulties, and even fall into a difficult situation, so you must do your best. ”

"Intelligence shows that Zheng Zhilong is very arrogant. Didn't put us in our eyes, 300 warships according to the predetermined route, starting from Quanzhou, Fujian, through the South China Sea, the East China Sea, about to enter the Yellow Sea, 300 warships, the momentum is not small, the impact is also very great, I believe that Zheng Zhilong's attack on Weihaiwei has been spread, as of today, the imperial court still has no reaction, the emperor has no holy decree down, it can be seen that everything depends on ourselves. ”

"For our Jiangning battalion, this is the best news, the court has no opinion, the emperor has no holy decree, then it can be played by us, I can say with great confidence that the combat effectiveness of the Jiangning battalion is a hundred times stronger than Zheng Zhilong's sailors, cavalry and foot soldiers, I hope you also have such self-confidence and devote yourself to the battle."

"First of all, look at the situation from Quanzhou, Zheng Zhilong has no slightest vigilance, Quanzhou City is immersed in the breath of the Spring Festival, judging from the latest information, Zheng Zhilong encouraged the local government to form many dragon and lion dance teams, ready to have a lively Spring Festival, I am afraid that Zheng Zhilong thinks that this Spring Festival, he will get more good news, then we will fulfill him."

"Quanzhou, there is no slightest vigilance, the Spring Festival, is also the time when the vigilance is the most relaxed, at this time to launch an attack, you can get unexpected results, Zheng Zhilong would never have dreamed that we are also a two-pronged approach, will not travel thousands of miles, go directly to Quanzhou, pull out his nest."

"Xiong Zijian, He Renlong, you must act in strict accordance with the plan, such a large-scale operation, to achieve complete secrecy, it is very difficult, but you must do it, the Jiangning battalion can complete the impossible task, you rest during the day, march after dark, do not enter the city, you can not take the official road as much as possible, you must launch an attack on the 30th day of the lunar month, there are still ten days, from here to Quanzhou, the road is long, you have to overcome unpredictable difficulties, I believe that you will be able to complete the task, here, I emphasize again, do not kill innocents indiscriminately, there are two people who must be captured alive, Zheng Zhilong and Zheng Chenggong, no matter how they resist, they cannot be killed, they must be captured alive, and they must not be allowed to escape. ”

"The merchant who led the way for you, you must treat it well, the merchant is not a sergeant, and his personal physical strength must be poor, so you must take good care of the place that should be taken care of, whether you can launch an attack smoothly, the role of the guide is crucial."

"The officers and men of the Jiangning battalion are accustomed to long-distance raids, and although they have come to Shandong, they still have a lot of daily training, so I don't have much to worry about when the cavalry launches an attack, and I don't need to emphasize it in particular."

"Xiong Zijian, you are calm and able to judge the situation, I don't have much to entrust, this time you are the commander-in-chief, but you were mainly responsible for the logistics support of the Jiangning battalion before, this is the first time to lead a large army to run a long distance, encounter difficulties, don't worry, you can always think of a way."

"He Renlong, I still say the same thing, personal heroism is needed, but as the commander of the army, you can't give full play to personal heroism, you must overcome, everything is based on the overall situation, over the years, you have basically overcome this problem, but you still show something, this time the stakes are very high, you must obey the command."

"When you set out, you must be victorious."

Xiong Zijian and He Renlong saluted Su Tiancheng in an orderly manner, left the Governor's Mansion without looking back, and rushed to the barracks, where the soldiers were already waiting in the barracks, and everything had already been prepared.

"This is the first battle of the sailor, Zheng Zhilong's sailor, has been rampant at sea for many years, has rich experience, we must not underestimate, the advantages we have are clear, giant warships and patrol ships, sufficient artillery, all this is not Zheng Zhilong's sailor, in terms of firepower, we have an absolute advantage, at the same time, Zheng Zhilong's arrogance, is also our best chance, we can be surprised, Zheng Zhilong's situation of the sailor, we are clear, but our situation, the other party knows nothing, That's our biggest strength. ”

"Fighting at sea, unlike on land, there is nowhere to escape, failure is to be buried in the sea, there is almost no other way out, in the face of Zheng Zhilong's three hundred warships, we can only protect ourselves if we win, I don't want to say more about this truth, you are all clear."

"The naval division currently has eight major warship formations, Penglai warship formation, Yantai warship formation, Weihai warship formation, Dengzhou warship formation, Laizhou warship formation, participating in this naval battle, Qingzhou warship formation, Pingdu warship formation, Wendeng warship formation stationed, of which Qingzhou warship formation is stationed in Penglai City, Pingdu warship formation is stationed in Yantai, Wendeng warship formation is stationed in Weihaiwei, no matter what happens, we must ensure the safety of Dengzhou, Laizhou and Qingzhou."

"The decisive battle site we chose was on Pingshan Island, once Zheng Zhilong's warship entered Pingshan Island, it would also enter the place under the jurisdiction of Qingzhou, and choosing to fight here was also to tell Zheng Zhilong that he had invaded our sea area, not far from Pingshan Island, there was Dashan Island, Zheng Zhilong's warship, if it suffered a fiasco, it would definitely choose to retreat to Dashan Island, this is something we can't ask for, just land on the island and annihilate them."

"Zheng Zhilong's formation of three hundred warships, the commander-in-chief is Zheng Hongkui, this person is clear to everyone, young and vigorous, he is Zheng Zhilong's younger brother, he has followed Zheng Zhilong to fight at sea for many years, and has a certain amount of experience, so you can't take it lightly."

"Zheng Zhilong's warship formation has already set off from Quanzhou, Fujian, and our warship formation set off today and rushed to Pingshan Island in advance, waiting here, according to our estimates, the time when the naval battle began was on the thirtieth day of the lunar month."

"The 20,000 sailors and soldiers who participated in the battle will not be able to reunite with their families this Spring Festival, and in terms of logistics, we must make sufficient guarantees that we will spend the Spring Festival together on the sea and celebrate this Spring Festival with all victories."

"Deng Hui, Liu Chongsan, it's the Spring Festival soon, the people of Dengzhou can't be affected, as for Laizhou and Qingzhou, I will tell Lanqiaozheng and Liu Yunqing respectively, we must let the people have a good New Year, it's been a year of hard work, and finally look forward to the Spring Festival, the people need to take a good rest, the matter of the army's conquest, don't involve the people too much, unless it's a battle of life and death, this must become a rule, Jiangning Battalion has always been like this, it is not allowed to harass the people, and it is not ready to fight in the name of war, To increase the burden on the people, to do this, we need to adhere to it together, you are magistrates, you must insist, sometimes the soldiers do not do the right, you must boldly put forward. ”

The people in the wing room soon left, only Wang Dazhi was still standing beside him.

Su Tiancheng walked straight to the backyard, and finally looked forward to the Spring Festival, but unfortunately he couldn't be with his family, but Zhu Xianxin, who was far away in the capital, should feel the same at this time. (To be continued......)
