Defense, in nature, suffers from attack because it loses the strategic initiative.

When and where the main forces will fight a decisive battle, it is the attacker who has the final say.

Facing the overwhelming attacking crowd of Gao's army.

Duan's army struggled to support it while quickly coming to the rescue of Dali Mansion.

But there is no Duan army in Dali's mansion, and there is no army in Dali that can support the Lancang River, and there is only Xu Shouren's army in Dali's mansion that has just been armed.

An army of less than 4,000 people, facing an army of 60,000 Gao clan's attack, even if they are iron men, they will be overwhelmed by the swarming crowd.

After Xu Shouren consulted with Xu Shiming and Bailikang, he decided to immediately impose martial law in Dali Mansion and control all officials above the fifth grade.

Then Bai Likang led 3,000 soldiers to the Lancang River for reinforcements, leaving more than 800 soldiers under the command of Xu Shouren to maintain law and order in Dali Mansion.

In order to ensure security, Xu Shiming and a non-combatant personnel in the Ming State quickly retreated to Huichuan and Jianchang Mansion in the northeast, and after arriving at Jianchang Mansion, he held a secret decree of a hundred miles to mobilize the reinforcements of the Ming army that had already been arranged on the border between the two countries.

The sudden outbreak of war was both expected and unexpected.

It is expected that once Ming Guo accepts Duan's invitation to surrender, it is equivalent to pronouncing Gao's death sentence, and it can be judged that Gao will definitely fight to the death; Unexpectedly, Gao Fang launched so quickly.

The conscription and dispatch of tens of thousands of troops is not something that can be completed by completion, it takes time.

But obviously, after Xu Shouren's command broke the enemy on the Lancang River, Gao Fang already had the idea of going east.

Especially when his son Gao Zhiping failed to intercept the Duan envoy group and returned. Gao Fang was already prepared for the worst in his heart.

The moment the news reached Gao Fang's ears, it was equivalent to giving an order for war.

Due to the suddenness of the incident, the nearest Ming army was still stationed on the border between Ming and Dali. Far water could not save the near fire, and Bai Likang could only lead 3,000 soldiers to try his best to delay the time for Gao's army to cross the river.

Baili Wuji, Xu Shouren, Sun Shixu and others were already ready to march into Dali, if it weren't for Duan's sudden surrender, the Ming army stationed on the border line would have launched an attack as planned.

Now that the situation has changed, Baili Wuji changed his plan and ordered Baili Yi to lead 15,000 new troops to stand by at the border eighty miles north of Jianchang Mansion; Sun Shixu led 15,000 new troops to stand by at the border fifty miles west of Juzhou.

And Baili Wuji obviously also took into account the need for actual combat training in case the battle could not be fought, and the Yang Ting-style "bombing team" needed actual combat training. Therefore, Yang Ting's style department was placed under the command of Bailiyi and accepted the command of Bailiyi.

Yang Ting's style department is the most supportive new army of Baili Wuji. enjoyed the highest treatment in the Ming army.

They can be called "mechanized" troops, because all the movement of personnel and equipment does not require manpower, a total of 3,000 men, and 6,000 horses. Eight thousand mules and horses. There are more than 5,000 transport vehicles.

And this time, Yang Tingshi has a secret order of 100 miles without taboo, if the war does not break out as scheduled, then, the "bombing team" will disguise itself as an ordinary Ming army and march to Lanxi County, north of Dali Mansion, and then launch a small-scale and multi-echelon bombing combat mission in Lanxi County, the target is naturally Tengchong Mansion.

After Duan Susu finished negotiating with Duan Foyin, the only request she made was revenge.

This simple woman. The only wish in her heart is to avenge the hundreds of Dali soldiers and Ming guards who died for her along the way.

A simple-hearted woman. After seeing so much blood, her heart was full of the urge for revenge, not to mention, she carried this qiē on her back, she thought that these people were all dying for her.

She is obligated to avenge them.

Baili Wuji can naturally predict the fate of the Gao family, from the first time the Duan sisters were in the court and told the encounters along the way, Baili Wuji drew an end to the end of the Gao family.

No one or any force can survive in peace after so arrogantly stopping the Ming army.

And the Yang Ting-style bombing team will be used as this sharp blade of revenge, straight into Tengchong Mansion, where is the Gao family's lair.

Even if the Dali Kingdom finally returned to the Ming Kingdom peacefully, Baili Wuji would never let the Gao family survive in this world.

This is a clear warning to all the unstable elements who have joined the Ming Kingdom.

Killing chickens and setting an example for monkeys, the tricks of a hundred miles of unscrupulous are very old-fashioned, but the old-fashioned tricks are often the most effective and effective.

But Baili Wuji did not expect Gao Fang to start a war so quickly, and the two armies of Baili Yi and Sun Shixu were still stationed in Jianchang Mansion and Juzhou on standby.

When he saw Xu Shiming's flying pigeon biography, Baili Wuji knew that things might be worse, not because the Ming army or the Ming Congress failed, but because Baili Wuji was worried about the safety of Xu Shiming, Xu Shouren and others in Dali.

The army in the hands of the Duan clan in Dali is too small, and in the face of the all-out attack of the Gao clan, it can be said that the head cannot be taken care of.

The biggest possibility of the development of the battle situation is that the Gao clan quickly broke through the Lancang River and advanced towards Dali Mansion.

And the consequence of this is that the tribes that have already fallen to the Duan clan may face a choice again.

In other words, the Dali Kingdom could trigger a protracted civil war.

This is not in the interests of the Ming State, and the reason why Baili Wuji agreed to Duan's request to surrender is to take over a stable Dali from Duan's hands, so that a large number of old officials who need to be purged can be transferred to Dali in a centralized manner, and lay a stable foundation for himself to reform the political situation of the Ming State.

At this time, Duan Sicong's Ming envoy group was on the way back to Jinling Mansion, and Baili Wuji originally wanted Duan Sicong to return to stabilize the situation, but now it seems that it is beyond the reach of the whip.

Baili Wuji immediately used carrier pigeons to issue orders to Baili Yi and Sun Shixu.

He ordered the Baili Yi Department to immediately move south, enter Dali through Jianchang Mansion, and garrison Huichuan Mansion to hold on, so as to avoid the risk of the Duan's army immediately collapsing once the Lancang River was broken through by Gao's army.

Controlling the Huichuan Mansion would ensure that at least the Ming army would continue to supply and increase troops from the Jianchang Mansion.

At the same time, Baili Wuji ordered Baili Yi to convey his orders to Yang Tingshi, so that Yang Tingshi could judge the timing of the war on his own, and there were only two tasks, one was to rescue Xu Shiming, Xu Shouren, Bailikang, etc.; The second is to strike at the Gao army and eliminate a living force.

In the other direction, Baili Wuji ordered Sun Shixu to lead his troops to rush west from Juzhou, continue to control the Shanyan Mansion to the west through Shicheng County, and then stick to the standby.

As long as you can control the two mansions and live in Huichuan and explain the two mansions, you can form a horn trend against the Dali Mansion, even if the war situation really gets the eroded Cheng dù, with these two mansions in hand, the Ming State can control half of Dali, and at the same time, the Dali Mansion is still under the shroud of the Ming army.
