"Huh?" Zhou Xiuying's eyes lit up, and then said: "Now that Yungui has been decided, the pressure on Hunan has been reduced a lot, you can urgently transfer Li Shixian's Ninth Army to cross the river to the north and attack Xinyang from the direction of Xiangyang, and you transfer a division from the 14th Army to garrison Nanyang, and you yourself and the Fourth Army will attack Xinyang from the direction of Nanyang, with the strength of the two armies from the left and right, the Huai Army stationed in Xinyang may ask Bozhou Fuyang for help." ”

Speaking, Zhou Xiuying pointed to the map: "Xinyang is located at the junction of Hubei, Henan and Anhui provinces, the terrain is high in the south and low in the north, Tongbai Mountain and Dabie Mountain converge, if the troops in the direction of Bozhou Fuyang come to the rescue, they must come from the north, you can be here, that is, it is the north bank of the Shihe River, Wulidian area relies on the terrain to deploy troops to encircle the point to help, if Bozhou Fuyang does not have the intention of rescuing Xinyang, then it is good to directly wave the army with Li Shixian." ”

"Tune Li Shixian?" Wang Feng hesitated a little and said: "The direction of Yungui and Hunan is separated by the mountains and mountains of Xiangxi, even if the Qing court intends to attack Hunan, it will not send troops from Yungui, this is not worth the loss at all, if it is me, I will inevitably send troops from Sichuan and Hanzhong, I will leave heavy troops in Hunan, mainly to guard against these two directions, if Li Shixian's troops go north, what if the Qing court attacks from two directions?"

If the Qing court cooperates well at the right time, taking advantage of the fact that the Hanzhong soldiers in Sichuan have entered Hunan and our army is coming back to help, it will suddenly send troops from Fuyang Bozhou to pursue us, which will make us fall into great passivity.

Through the tug-of-war between northern Jiangsu and southern Lunan in the past two months, we can see that although the overall combat effectiveness of the Qing army is not as good as our army, it has been greatly improved, especially the Eight Banners, which seem to have been reborn under the pressure of the annihilation of the clan. Everyone is not afraid of death, and today's strategic situation is quite favorable to us, there is no need to take risks, to follow my view, it is better to be still, as long as we guard Jingxiang. Qing Court can't turn over, let's drag it out for a while. ”

Although there is no news from the navy so far, there is no doubt that it is not a problem to break through Singapore and plunder the supplies of the coalition forces, it is nothing more than how much to pay.

Since the supply of the coalition army is cut off, the supply of the Qing army will also be cut off, and it is indeed a safe way to slowly consume the Qing army. But it's already January, and Wang Feng announced to the whole world two years ago that he would establish a country on October 1, and the city of Nanjing is also making intensive preparations.

Fu Shanxiang couldn't help but raise this question.

Wang Feng said indifferently: "Then the line of fire to build the country, but it will help to improve morale." ”

Nation-building in the line of fire? The women looked at each other, and their heads couldn't help but appear in the midst of the fire. The scene of Wang Feng loudly announcing the founding of the country was very funny. But I couldn't think of a better way.

At this moment, a female soldier hurriedly rushed over and saluted: "Report to the commander-in-chief, Jiang Zhongji, the commander of the Hunan army, asks to see you." ”

"Huh?" Su Sanniang was puzzled: "His elder brother Jiang Zhongyuan died in the hands of Shi Dakai, it should be a common enemy with us, and I also heard that after he retreated from Changsha. lurked in Hanzhong, even if he wanted to come, he would sneak in with his soldiers, what does this mean by asking for a meeting? ”

Yang Shuijiao also asked, "How many people did Jiang Zhongji bring?" ”

"Two retinues." The female soldier replied.

"Since he only brought two people, he must have no malice. No matter, let's invite him into the city government first, Sister Sanniang, let's go to meet Jiang Zhongji together. Wang Feng waved his hand, turned around and walked back.

"Good!" Su Sanniang kept up with Wang Feng's pace.

About half an hour later, Wang Feng and Su Sanniang met Jiang Zhongji in the hall of the city government, a middle-aged man in his thirties, with a rough face, a burly figure, and the iconic beard of the Hunan army, which was very different from his elder brother Jiang Zhongyuan in terms of image.

Although Jiang Zhongji saw Wang Feng for the first time, Wang Feng's portrait had already spread among the Qing army, and he arched his hand at the moment: "Jiang Zhongji has seen Commander-in-Chief Wang. ”

Wang Feng waved his hand and said: "Jiang Zhongji, we Mingren don't say secret words, although you and I are temporarily in a hostile position, but since you came to see me alone, I shouldn't embarrass you in love, you can say it directly." ”

"This" Jiang Zhongji showed a hint of embarrassment, and then gritted his teeth and said: "Jiang Zhongji is willing to lead 15,000 cavalry to serve the commander-in-chief of the king." ”

Wang Feng and Su Sanniang looked at each other with disbelief on their faces, and the first thought that came to mind was to surrender fraudulently, after all, the Democratic Alliance Army had no relationship with Jiang Zhongji.

Su Sanniang even asked: "General Jiang, I am Su Sanniang, the commander of the Fourth Army of the Democratic Alliance, why do you want to join our army?" I don't shy away from saying that your brother Jiang Zhongyuan died at the hands of Shi Dakai, who was the king of Yiwang at the time, when he attacked Hefei six years ago, and Shi Dakai was the commander of the Second Army of the Democratic Alliance. Don't blame me for speaking badly, you will inevitably have the same doubts. ”

"It turned out to be Su Sanniang, the number one hero in the women's middle school, Jiang is disrespectful and disrespectful!" Jiang Zhongji arched his hand: "No wonder Commander-in-Chief Wang and the Soviet Army Commander will have doubts, this matter is a long story, two years ago, your army invaded Hunan, Jiang received Zeng Shuai's order to retreat to Hanzhong, originally planned to take advantage of the fact that once your army moved to attack Xinyang, it would send surprise troops to attack Jingxiang, and Jiang has also been preparing for this matter.

However, a month ago, Jiang met Mr. Ji Gao (Zuo Zongtang) leading the army to the west at the Hanzhong station, Mr. Ji Gao told him about what had happened recently, and he knew that he was righteous, analyzed the description of the world, and after a long talk, Jiang suddenly woke up and was willing to lead his troops to revolt and return to your army."

Jiang Zhongji spent fifteen minutes describing his meeting with Zuo Zongtang, and also expressed his indignation at Xianfeng's collusion with the Russians to betray the country. ”

Jiang Zhongji took out a letter from his arms and presented it with both hands.

Wang Feng took it and opened it to see that it was indeed Zuo Zongtang's handwriting, with only a few hundred words, mainly to give a general account of his situation during this time, and to focus on Jiang Zhongji, saying that he was brave and filial, loyal and righteous, and could be appointed. ”

For Zuo Zongtang, Wang Feng still trusts him very much, otherwise he would not maintain a special friendly relationship with him, and although Jiang Zhongji's reputation is not as good as his brother Jiang Zhongyuan, he is also quite talented, and it is recommended by Zuo Zongtang, so there is no possibility of fraudulent surrender.

It is inconvenient for Zuo Zongtang to vote openly for the time being, but Jiang Zhongji, as a fierce general of the Hunan army, is of great significance, and it may be a fuse that triggers the complete collapse of the Hunan army or the Huai army! (To be continued......)
