Chapter 43 "Delayed" Fighters

Luo Rucai nodded, Fang Guangchen thought for a moment, and couldn't help but sneer, "What about avoiding Yuan Jixian's soldiers and horses and entering Jiangxi, the Ming army can still attack Jiangxi and continue the pursuit." What will happen to our army then? ”

Luo Rucai smiled, and did not directly refute Fang Guangchen's words, but cast his eyes on Wu Sangui, who was sitting in the center.

Wu Sangui coughed, "Ting Xian, and let Cao Shuai finish speaking, so far, you and I are at a loss, you might as well listen to the audience's good strategy!" ”

Wu Sangui opened his mouth, Fang Guangchen naturally didn't want to say anything, so he could only sit back in place with a hint of jealousy.

According to Wu Sangui's instructions, Luo Rucai led Ji Jue into the big tent of the Chinese army, and just gave Wu Sangui a gift, but Fang Guangchen said again: "It turns out that you are Ji Jue, I heard that you had a good relationship with your brother Luo Ruliang under Cao Shuai's tent, this time Luo Ruliang took Putian as a gift and took refuge in Zhu Ping'an, but why did you return to our army, didn't you have other thoughts?" ”

Fang Guangchen's words were high-pitched, which made the generals in the tent talk for a while, and Wu Sangui's face also showed a suspicious look.

Ji Si unhurriedly arched his hand at Fang Guangchen, "Please also ask the prince and Mr. Ting Xian to be clear, Ji Si was born in a reckless background, and he is finally familiar with poetry and history, fortunately, General Luo is trustworthy and entrusted with the responsibility of counselor military aircraft." For so many years, the wind and rain have been with each other, never abandoned, and Ji Mou sighed inexplicably. Thinking about the embarrassment of General Luo's commander of the fifth battalion of Gezuo in Yinghuo Mountain, Ji still followed him wholeheartedly, how could he bear to leave him today? After the fall of Putian, Ji escaped with a lot of hard work, that is, he wanted to live and die with General Luo! ”

Ji Jue's words made the generals nod their heads again and again. is also the same reason, everyone in the world knows that Luo Rucai only has one strategist by his side, Ji Jue, and he has gotten along very well for so many years. The two support each other, saying that they are monarchs and ministers, but in fact, they are close friends who entrust life and death.

Wu Sangui nodded approvingly, "Mr. Ji is very right, and Ting Xian is also cautious, you must not mind." Cao Shuai said that you have a plan to get out of trouble, you might as well say it, let's refer to it! ”

Ji Jue hurriedly bowed down and saluted, and said a few more polite words, and then he told his strategy one by one.

Jiangxi Yuan Jixian, although he is in charge of the military, government and civil affairs of the province, but the soldiers and horses under his command are from the guards in Jiangxi, and the combat power is ordinary.

When Ji Jue traveled in Fujian and other places. I once learned by chance that there was a mountain road that could quickly enter Jiangxi, but because the mountains were high and dense, few people passed by, so I didn't know. But this time, Wu Sangui's army could use this mountain road to go straight to Jiangxi and jump out of the encirclement of the Ming army.

Then you can take advantage of the emptiness of Jiangxi's troops to quickly advance along the line of Shaozhou and Zhaozhou and pass through Jiangxi. Suddenly invaded Guangxi.

Ji Jue pointed to the map in the tent and said, "Although Guangxi is a little barren. But with his back to Yungui, he can attack and retreat and defend, which is enough to make our army move around. The former Ming Gui King Zhu Youlang raised troops in Wuzhou to stand on his own, and with his talents, he was not able to control the entire territory of Guangxi. In particular, there are many local indigenous tribes in Guangxi, and they have a strong temperament. It is difficult to control, and after our army enters Guangxi, it will have a lot to do. ”

"The Ming court is still attacking and defending Nanjing now, and Zhu Ping'an is unwilling to put all the soldiers and horses from Guangdong, Fujian, and Zhejiang into the pursuit of our army. His immediate priority was to lift the siege of Nanking and rectify Jiangnan. And the Qing Dynasty still had hundreds of thousands of soldiers to fight. I don't know where the general trend of the world will go in the future. Our army can take advantage of the war between the Ming and Qing dynasties, based on Guangxi and Yunnan, to recuperate and wait for the changes in the world. Plan for the worst, no matter who wins the world in the Ming and Qing dynasties in the future, I am willing to sit down with the prince and talk about the conditions of submission, so that the prince will be invincible? ”

"Good! What a plan! Wu Sangui suddenly stood up from his seat, his original depression was swept away, and his whole face flashed with excitement.

Fang Guangchen said, "Lord Wang, isn't this a bit too risky?" From Fujian to Guangxi, how far away is a thousand miles, we have interception in front of us, and there are chasing soldiers in the back, and if we are not careful, we will never recover! ”

Luo Rucai took a step forward and asked loudly, "Could it be that we are just sitting in this Tingzhou land and waiting for death?" ”

The generals suddenly saw the vitality, and immediately became noisy, and Xia Guoxiang shouted even louder, "Lord, we can't sit still, staying in Fujian is a dead end, and if you go to Guangxi, you may be able to regain a glimmer of life!" ”

At this time, Wu Sangui had no other choice, and patted Fang Guangchen on the shoulder, "Tingxian, Mr. Ji's strategy is very exquisite. The Ming army never imagined that we would go straight behind Yuan Jixian, as long as we enter Jiangxi, with those guards stationed in the army, how can we resist our elite soldiers, but our supplies have also been settled, why stay on the front line of Tingzhou? ”

Fang Guangchen was speechless for a moment, and could only retreat gloomily.

Suddenly, Wu Sangui's mood became very good, and he looked at Ji Jue and Luo Rucai with a smile: "Mr. Ji is talented, I don't know if Mr. intends to succumb to this king's account?" Fang Guangchen on the side suddenly changed his face.

Ji Si bowed down, "The prince values it, Ji really doesn't dare to be, Ji has sworn in his early years that he will only follow General Luo in this life, and he still hopes that Wang Ye Haihan!" ”

Wu Sangui was stunned for a moment, and then nodded approvingly, "General Luo serves our army, and Mr. Naji also serves this king, and this king is indeed a little abrupt!" ”

Immediately, Wu Sangui stood up straight and issued a military order loudly, "This king ordered Luo Rucai to be the vanguard, and Mr. Ji Jue to be the counselor of the army, leading the army from Wuping Mountain Road to Jiangxi, this king leads the Chinese army, and the palace of the Xia State Minister, early tomorrow morning, the whole army will advance westward!" ”

……

The Gutian of Tingzhou Mansion has now become a huge barracks, and the Shi Lang Department that landed from Zhangpu, as well as the Zhang Mingzhen and Zheng Sen Divisions who rushed from Quanzhou Mansion, including the tens of thousands of Zheng troops led by Shi Fu, are now all concentrated here, waiting to launch a general attack on Wu Sangui.

After defeating Durd, Guangdong's Yongsheng army was also marching day and night, and now the front of the army has arrived near Xiangdong, forming a trap situation for Wu Sangui's troops.

However, Yuan Jixian's Jiangxi army was still making slow progress, and there was no latest news to arrive. This made Zheng Sen, Shi Fu and others anxious. If Yuan Jixian couldn't arrive in time and cut off Wu Sangui's retreat, wouldn't it be possible for these more than 100,000 soldiers and horses to slip away in vain.

Especially Zheng Sen, Zheng Zhilong and Zheng Zhibao died of Wu Sangui's injury, and the hatred of the national enemy made him hate Wu Sangui to the bone.

Early in the morning, Zheng Sen took his subordinates Gan Hui, Zhou Quanbin and others to Zhang Mingzhen's Chinese army tent in a hurry. Zhang Mingzhen is now the military governor of Fujian and Guangdong personally appointed by Zhu Ping'an, although Zheng Sen is dissatisfied, but now he is under the low eaves, and he has to swallow his anger for the time being.

However, Zheng Sen reminded himself from time to time that Fujian is the foundation of the Zheng family's business for more than 20 years, and it is absolutely unacceptable if it is handed over to others like this. These days, he is also constantly in contact with Shi Fu, after all, Shi Fu still has tens of thousands of Zheng Jun's elite in his hands, Zheng Sen's biggest weakness now is that there are too few troops in his hands, no one, where does the right to speak, the top priority is to bring Shi Fu to his side as soon as possible, and firmly control his tens of thousands of elite soldiers in his hands.

"Zhang Dashuai!" Zheng Sen couldn't wait for the soldiers outside the tent to report, so he hurriedly rushed into the big tent.

After entering the big tent, Zheng Sen's figure was slightly stagnant, in the big tent, in addition to Fang Yuegong, Zhang Mingzhen, and Shi Fu, Shi Lang and Shi Xian, who had never met since arriving in Gutian, were also sitting in it.

As we all know, Zheng Zhilong's father and son raided Xiamen in order to deal with Gaopu Zheng that day, and they couldn't help but kill Zheng Lian, Shi Lang's father Shi Daxuan was also killed by Zheng Zhibao by mistake, if he didn't escape quickly, Shi Lang's brothers would not have escaped the poison. The revenge of killing his father is not shared, and Zheng Sen cannot escape the blame for Shi Daxuan's death. When we met today, it was no wonder that Zheng Sen was a little embarrassed.

As soon as he saw Zheng Sen enter the tent, Shi Xian jumped up all of a sudden, and his right hand couldn't help but press the hilt of the sword. Gan Hui, Zhou Quanbin and others were also taken aback, and hurriedly protected Zheng Sen.

Shi Lang quietly grabbed Shi Xian's arm. "Big brother!" Shi Xian glared angrily.

"Sit down!" Shi Lang said in a deep voice.

The eldest brother spoke, and although Shi Xian was full of anger, he had to let go of his right hand holding the hilt of the sword and sit back in his seat with hatred.

Zhang Mingzhen kept a smile on his face, and when he saw Shi Xian sitting back in his place, he couldn't help but nod approvingly, and turned his head to Zheng Sen again. "Yan Pingbo is visiting today, I don't know what's going on?"

Zheng Sen steadied his mind. Fang Yuegong, who was sitting on the throne, was Zhu Yujian's confidant, and this is not enough, then Zhang Mingzhen, the governor of the Fujian and Guangdong military affairs, was just a member of Zhu Ping'an's side before, and he was only a guerrilla officer in Taizhou, Zhejiang, but now he has become a feudal official. This made Zheng Sen's heart a little reluctant.

"Lord Fang, Zhang Dashuai!" After Zheng Sen gave a salute, he said straightforwardly: "Now that Wu Sangui has been defeated and is surrounded in the square inch of Tingzhou, this is a good opportunity for a large-scale attack, but our army has hesitated for several days. Wu Sangui is as cunning as a fox, once he seizes the loophole and breaks through the encirclement, it may not be so easy to gather and annihilate in the future. The last general came for the second time, just for the purpose of sending troops, please Lord Fang and Zhang Dashuai make a decision as soon as possible, so as not to delay the fighter!
