"Weichen thinks that the soldiers are treacherous, and this may be the suspicious tactics of the southerners." Zhou Peigong saw that the teacher Hong Chengchou did not speak, so he spoke first.

His words made Nalan Mingzhu a little unhappy, after all, this information was obtained by the spy personnel of the Military Aircraft Department at the risk of their lives, and Zhou Peigong arbitrarily thought that it was a suspicious plan without any investigation and analysis, how could this convince him.

"Cough, Lord Zhou, this is wrong, do you know where this information came from, it took two years and an extremely high price for the secret spy in our military aircraft department lurking in the mansion of Nanming General Liu Ziguang, could it be that our experienced secret spies would not be able to tell that this was the other party's strategy?"

"Lord Mingzhu is angry, just talking about things, not questioning the hard work of secret spies, as we all know, the Ming people are treacherous, we must not guard against it." Zhou Peigong said sincerely.

"Is it a trick, it can't be based on groundless speculation alone, but according to the follow-up actions of the other party, the Xuzhou army stationed on the front line of Jinan and Qingzhou is maneuvering northward in the open, but secretly it is moving eastward, according to the report of the spies we planted in Jinan, the rut marks to the north are very shallow, and the rut marks to the east are deeply imprinted on the dirt road after the rain, what does this mean, I don't think I need to explain it to you." Mingzhu talked eloquently, and several military planes stroked their beards and nodded yes.

Hong Chengchou shook his head slightly, picked up the teacup and gently blew the hot air, Kangxi saw him look calm, and couldn't help but speak: "What is Mr. Hong's opinion?" ”

Hong Chengchou is now the pillar of the Qing Dynasty, and he has recently been named Taishi and ranked among the three dukes, but these small military planes are noisy and shouting, and in the end it depends on his decision.

Hong Chengchou took a sip of fragrant tea, slowly put down the blue and white porcelain cup, and said: "Soldiers are impermanent, water is impermanent, this is the only natural nature of strategy, this information is true, how is it false, and how is it not a soldier to block the water to cover the earth, the Ming army is deceitful, but what kind of trickery can't be turned into 100,000 elite cavalry, now they are facing a three-sided attack, the most important thing is defense rather than offense, but then again, the best defense is attack, plus the adventurous character of the commander of the Ming army, we have to guard." ”

Everyone's expressions were solemn and attentive, listening to Hong Chengchou's speech, Kangxi also put on a posture of being humbly taught, changed his sitting posture, looked at Hong Chengchou with great interest, and Master Hong smiled reservedly, and took a sip of tea: "This southward operation, our army is mainly equipped with Mongolian elite cavalry, equipped with supporting firearms and supplemented by the Eight Banners and Green Battalions, the main combat strength of the other side is also cavalry, if you fight hard, there is no need for this at all, it is better to wait for the work, and the plan will be calculated on the beach of Tianjin, annihilating the enemy's elite, they are not making a feint to the north, we are just like their wishes, and also make the illusion of transferring troops to the south to the north bank of the Yellow River, hum, the Yellow River moat is approaching the flood season, not everyone can say that it will be half over, and the attack will not even have the ability to fight back. If the enemy army ascends 6 from Tianjin, we will drive them to the sea to feed the fish, in case they really cross the river to attack, with the strength of the cavalry, it will only be a day and a night. ”

Hong Chengchou's plan is perfect, no matter whether the Ming army really wants to climb 6 Tianjin, or whether it is sound to attack the east and west, it will not be able to get benefits, tens of thousands of Mongolian cavalry are stationed in Tianjin, they can attack, retreat, and defend, and there is no good tooth mouth, and they will definitely not be able to gnaw this strong army.

The strategic arrangement was initially decided in this way, Nashun Geril led the Mongolian cavalry to garrison Tianjin, Wang Fuchen led the green battalion Chen soldiers, the north bank of the Yellow River, and the troops transferred from outside the Guan, suspended on the front line of Tongzhou, ready to go south at any time, these soldiers will be the warriors recruited from the white mountains and black waters outside the Guan, and they are also the last essence of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and after the elite of the Ming army is eliminated, they are the new force to the south.

After a night of hard persuasion in Wuhou Mansion in Nanjing Town, Peng Jingrong successfully persuaded Han Xue'er that she no longer insisted on seeking death, but promised to give birth to a child and then become a monk, this result is relatively satisfactory, for her, it is impossible to forget everything before, integrate into it, and start a normal life, and it is the best choice to escape into the empty door.

After dealing with family affairs, Liu Ziguang was ready to go out again, originally said that he would no longer personally lead the troops into battle, but this operation was planned by himself, and the Beiyang Naval Division was trained by himself, and the main attack made him hold the child in the rear, which was too aggrieved, so he asked the emperor to fight, personally led the troops into battle, and the offensive of the Shandong front was divided into two roads, led by Xu Zengshou, and Liu Ziguang was only responsible for the surprise attack of the elite soldiers, so Zhu Youxiao readily agreed.

Reluctantly bidding farewell to his wife and children, Liu Ziguang personally led the Red Shirt Army of the Beijing Division to enter the sea along the river, and went straight to Qingdao by sea, and carried out amphibious combat missions with the Beiyang Naval Division.

In addition to the ordnance, grain, and grass, Liu Ziguang also brought two cameras, he wanted to take the spectacular war scenes for future generations to admire, and the team went to Qingdao with the second-year student Liu Ziguang, the future brother-in-law Dai Wenlong was among them, and unconsciously Dai Wenlong had been studying in the martial arts hall for a whole year, from a milky young man to a resolute and resolute military academy non-commissioned officer student.

After a whole year of harsh training, the students of the martial arts hall are all second-year freshmen, and after a whole year of harsh training, they all have the bearing of soldiers, their movements are neat, their faces are not tied up in their beards, their faces are meticulous, the straps of their helmets are tightly fastened on their chins, and the cowhide shoes on their feet are polished brightly, and their mental outlook looks much stronger than that of the Red Shirt Army.

When the ship was sailing on the sea, the cadets were still insisting on training, practicing shooting on the undulating deck, and more than a dozen empty barrels filled with fuel were thrown on the sea, and the teenagers held fire guns at the air that drifted farther and farther away, I don't know if they were drifting too far or the deck shook too much, and five or six of the ten guns did not hit, which provoked the red-shirted veterans on the other ship, and the little dolls who talked about the martial arts hall were red and red-eared, and a few dared to shout at the veterans, inviting them to show their hands to see the veterans, and the veterans felt bored with the journey, and also took out the fire guns to hit the empty barrels, this time their targets drifted farther, but the hit rate was far greater than that of the cadets, and the little dolls who were ashamed of the cadets did not dare to mention the competition againThing.

Liu Ziguang sat on the flagship, saw this scene, couldn't help but secretly laugh, in fact, the shooting level of the cadets is still very high, the shooting of the guns and the bow and arrow shooting are different, do not need strong arm strength, the practice time is also much shorter than the training of an archer, these children after a year of training is already a qualified gunner, although hand-to-hand combat to kill the enemy is still tender, but the two armies are not inferior in shooting, just lost to the veterans of the Red Shirt Army because of the difference in weapons, the students use flint smoothbore guns, and the Red Shirts who compete with them belong to the elite of the elite of the elite Death Battalion are used in the rear loading of the firing needle, the rifled gun tube is the best steel, carefully forged bullets are not the same, the range is much higher than the ordinary firecracker, naturallyThe hit rate has been greatly improved.

After seven days of trekking, the fleet arrived at the Qingdao base on the Shandong Peninsula, and now Qingdao is very different from when Liu Ziguang left, the city has been built, the facilities of the wharf have also been completed, there are forts at both ends of the import of Jiaozhou Bay, and from a distance, I saw the fleet with the flag of the commander of the Red Shirt Army coming to Qingdao Port, and the warships of Qingdao Port poured out of the nest and made a separate column on the sea surface of Jiaozhou Bay, all the officers and soldiers of the Beiyang Naval Division wore brand-new robes, stood on the side of the warship to accept the review of the marshal, Liu Ziguang also changed his golden helmet, the golden armor was obliquely draped in a red python robe, and the three feet below the ribs were Qingfeng, behind him was the eight deputy generals, waving the banner embroidered with his title, majestic and extraordinary。

As soon as Liu Ziguang's flagship entered the bay, the naval division warships fired cannons together, and the fortress on the shore also fired empty cannons to salute, so the officers and men knelt down on one knee and said in unison: "Welcome to the commander!" The voice shook the sky and shocked the sea, where have the martial arts students seen this pomp, one by one, they were incomparably excited, standing on the side of the ship, their hearts were surging, they could only straighten their waists straighter, eager to integrate into this proud group faster.

After the grand welcome ceremony, the warship entered the port, and the military materials on the ship were not unloaded, but the soldiers who had gone through the sea route got off the ship to find the feeling of stepping on the solid land again, and the marshal took the generals and Li Yan, the commander of the Beiyang Naval Division, to discuss military affairs, and after a simple deployment, they would re-embark on the journey.

When Liu Ziguang walked up to the main hall of the Admiral's Yamen, he looked at the familiar face and the eunuch Dai Yi of the prison army, but Dai Yi at this time was far from the past, comparable to the arrogance of the kind of arrogance that looked down on the world and commanded the people, and had already flown to the clouds, and the father-in-law of Wei, who relied on his support, had fallen, and Dongchang had also collapsed, if it weren't for Dai Yi in Qingdao, maybe he would have been a lonely ghost on the outskirts of Beijing, his position as a prison was completely hollowed out, and even the few Dongchang fans under his command were unfortunately killed in the street brawls with the heroes of the rivers and lakes, and now Dai Yi is simply a prisoner in the hands of Li Yan。

Seeing Liu Ziguang go to the court, Dai Yi hurriedly lay down and kowtowed, and his face was full of flattery, Liu Ziguang ignored him at all, pulled his robe, sat down and said, "The generals will listen to the order!" ”
