"Don't you agree to send troops?" Mao Shibai glared at Li Yan and asked. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

"It's not that I don't agree to send troops," Li Yanzhi smiled, "but I have some questions I want to ask you, that is, what benefits can we get from sending troops?" Even if Songjiang Mansion is defeated, what benefits can be gained? If the Qing army comes to attack on a large scale, can we hold Songjiang Mansion after we take it? If we can't hold it, we have to retreat like Yangzhou, so why do we have to fight? ”

Everyone who asked Li Yanzhi a few questions was stunned, and Mao Shiba, who was about to refute instinctively, closed his mouth. Yes, if you can't hold it, it's not in vain, just like Yangzhou, it cost thousands of troops in vain, but what you bring back is a burden of more than 200,000.

"Isn't it possible that we won't fight if we can't beat the Qing soldiers now? Then why not just go and surrender! Song Liben sneered. Since Li Yanzhi joined the Daishan Army, his status in the Daishan Army has risen sharply, making Song Liben faintly have a great sense of threat, a year ago Song Liben was basically the most important adviser in Daishan, Ren Siqi would ask for his opinion on everything, but now he was replaced by Li Yanzhi, so how can Song Liben be convinced.

"I didn't say I wouldn't fight, but I felt that it would not be of much benefit to us if I directly attacked the city, and I thought about what we should do to be the most beneficial to Chongming!" Li Yanzhi patiently explained.

"Brother Yanzhi, don't sell Guanzi, please speak up." Yan Ermei laughed.

"I haven't thought about it yet," Li Yanzhi spread his hands with a wry smile, "But I don't think it will be beneficial for us to attack Songjiang directly." ”

"Cut, I don't have an idea to say anything!" Song Liben turned his head disdainfully.

"Hehe, Brother Yan is not unreasonable. However, in the following view, it is not necessary to put profit first, take the battle of Yangzhou just now cited by Brother Yanzhi as an example. In Brother Yan's opinion, the battle of Yangzhou is not good for us, but in the next view, it is the opposite. Yan Ermei put away her smile and said solemnly, "The battle of Yangzhou first saved the lives of hundreds of thousands of Yangzhou people. As the old saying goes, saving a life is better than building a seventh-level floating slaughter, not to mention saving hundreds of thousands of lives. ”

"Many people seem to have more to gain than to lose by defending Yangzhou, but in fact, on the contrary, the battle of Yangzhou brought great prestige to the governor. Now the entire Ming Dynasty does not know that the governor is the first general of the Ming Dynasty, or why Emperor Hongguang was captured before the canonization of the governor as the Duke of Yue, not counting on the governor to go to Hangzhou to turn the tide again. Speaking of Emperor Hongguang, Yan Ermei was a little embarrassed, after all, when Hongguang's holy decree arrived in Chongming, even he dissuaded Ren Siqi from sending troops to Hangzhou, and now that Hongguang was captured, he had to bear part of the responsibility.

"Therefore, now the name of the governor is now our biggest reliance, as long as we send troops, the people everywhere will definitely look to the scenery, although the Qing soldiers are many strong, but the people in Jiangnan are tens of millions, do they kill the light?" Yan Ermei's eyes flashed as she spoke, as if she saw the Daishan army coming out, and the people from all over the country rose up one after another to follow behind the Daishan army and kill the Manchus to the ground.

"Ahem" Ren Siqi couldn't help but smile bitterly, Yan Ermei really deserves to be a literati, a songwriter, her imagination is really rich, and she can afford her influence too much.

"What Yongqing said is certainly reasonable," Li Yanzhi smiled slightly, "But I don't know if Yongqing has thought about it?" Although we Chongming now have 40,000 troops, there are not many of them that can be sent? Those recruits have not been trained yet, so shouldn't they be sent to the battlefield to die? We can't let Commander Mao drive a warship to fight. ”

"Why not? The cannons of my giant ships are not vegetarians. Mao 18 interjected.

"But if we wait for a while, even if it's only two or three months, when our recruits are trained, it's not impossible to conquer the city again." Li Yanzhi ignored Mao Eighteen and continued.

"But I'm afraid that if we don't wait for us to train our soldiers, the rebels around the country will be killed by the Qing soldiers soon." Yan Erme sighed.

Ren Siqi smiled and listened to everyone's debate, but he smiled in his heart, if it is about strategy and grasping the general trend, Li Yanzhi and Yan Ermei are both the choice of the moment, and they are both good strategists. However, Yan Ermei's talent under the curtain of Shi Kefa was not valued by Shi Kefa, and Li Yanzhi was even more unknown in another time and space. There are so many talented people in the world, but most of them are useless heroes.

"Presumably, the governor has already made up his mind in his heart, but he doesn't know what we should do next?" Yan Ermei said respectfully to Ren Siqi.

"Hahaha, it makes sense to use what Brother Qing and Brother Yan Zhi said," Ren Siqi said with a smile, "I think so, we will definitely issue the soldiers, as soon as the shaving order comes out, there will be fires all over the south of the Yangtze River, how can we Chongming miss this opportunity." However, sending troops to return to sending troops does not necessarily have to attack Songjiang Mansion, and it does not necessarily have to attack the city and seize the land. ”

"What do you do if you don't attack the city?" Mao Eighteen asked puzzledly, and the others also showed the same doubts.

"Because I decided to fight a guerrilla war!" Ren Siqi said with a smile.

"The area around Susongchang and Zhejiang was vast, with rivers and a dense water network, and the Manchu forces could only control the main cities. Our Chongming troops are weak, and if we can't defeat the Qing cavalry, we can't capture the city, and we may not be able to hold the city if we capture it. But we don't need to occupy the county seats, we can occupy the vast countryside. With the strength of our naval army, we can occupy the vast countryside by relying on the river and fight an all-out guerrilla war with the Qing army.

We can send small groups of soldiers to each prefecture and county, using rivers and lakes as strongholds, to attack the Qing army that went out of the city to collect food and wages. If we see a small group of Qing troops in the field, we can gather and annihilate them, and if a large group of Qing troops come to encircle and suppress, we can disappear between the water nets by boat.

Resolutely crack down on the gentry who surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, confiscate and confiscate their family property as military expenses, support the rebel army who insisted on resisting the Qing Dynasty, and unite the gentry who are committed to the Ming Dynasty. Now with the Manchu Qing Dynasty's shaving order, the hearts of the people in the entire Jiangnan are in the Ming Dynasty, and most of the people will become our help, will ventilate for us, and our army will be like a fish in water everywhere, and will develop and grow step by step. ”

Ren Siqi's words were full of shock, and the people present had never heard of this kind of play. Fighting a war is to occupy the city to win, with the city to control the nearby countryside, where is the reason not to fight the city but to occupy the countryside?

But I want to oppose it, but I don't know how to refute it.

Silly, right? Shocked, right? Ren Siqi smiled and looked at the expressions of everyone present, the guerrilla warfare invented by the great man in later generations was really extraordinary, and it was just a piece of cake to convince the people of this era. (To be continued.) )
