When Guo Jiao drove the 'triplane' to complete the reconnaissance north of Fushun, Zhou Qingfeng confirmed that he had encountered a small-scale Jiannu reconnaissance activity. It was just these five people, and they were so unlucky that they bumped into their nemesis as soon as they showed up and were driven away, but just one news of the enemy attack caused panic in the entire city of Fushun.

The city gate was closed, the soldiers were on the wall, and even Zhou Qingfeng himself was frightened. When the situation calmed down at night, Zhou Qingfeng pulled Xu Bing and Li Shuwei to have a meeting in his office, and first reviewed his own lack of understanding and ability.

"I think too simplistic about war. I only thought that this was the contradiction between our own forces and the Nurhachi military group, but we didn't realize that this was a disaster faced by all the ordinary people in Fushun. The enemy's mere active reconnaissance has left us in a mess, and we know too little about the enemy. The fog of war hangs all around us all the time, and it's too passive. ”

Regarding Zhou Qingfeng's review, Xu Bing and Li Shuwei had nothing to say. When the two of them learned of the report of the 'Jiannu attack', they were also shocked and panicked, and their psychological endurance was no better than Zhou Qingfeng's. The sense of powerlessness in the face of catastrophe can even make people lose their resistance mentality, but fortunately they survived this time.

But who knows what the next time will be?

"This is a harbinger of war and must not be taken lightly." Xu Bing said.

Li Shuwei asked in confusion: "Didn't it say that it took Nurhachi three or four months to complete the battle preparations for Fushun in history?" It's only been two months, and we've got at least a month left. ”

Zhou Qingfeng looked back at the two maps depicting his office, one was the terrain around Fushun and the other was the terrain of Liaodong. He looked at the two maps, which he had pondered countless times, and said, "Our original estimate was based on Nurhachi's 20,000 troops. But Fushun's current situation can not be said to be 20,000, 5,000 or even 500 can be won. ”

Xu Bing hurriedly went through the historical materials at hand. Due to the simplicity of ancient written records, and the specific process of the war, she can only guess from her imagination between the lines. "In the original history, Nurhachi took Fushun and left with a large number of people and property. So the scale of his mobilization will not be too small. Five hundred is absolutely impossible, and five thousand is too little. ”

Li Shuwei reminded: "What if Nurhachi only came to trouble Zhou Qingfeng this time? After all, the real battle of Fushun took place two years later, and now that he is in advance, the purpose of the battle may also change. ”

Xu Bing was speechless for a moment, and turned his head to look at Zhou Qingfeng again. Zhou Qingfeng took off the topographic map of Fushun on the wall and spread it on the table, and circled a point on the road from Fushun to Hetuala with a pen, "You don't have to guess, it's useless to guess." The enemy is already conducting pre-war reconnaissance, indicating that it will not be too long before it will start the war. It will be a month later at the latest.

Today's reconnaissance by the enemy has actually given us a wake-up call, and it is also a test, but we are not qualified in the face of the test. We can't wait until we're ready to go to war. If we want to be in control, we have to take the initiative. I thought all afternoon, and if I wanted to gain the initiative, I would attack the enemy's main communication routes, disrupt their transportation lines, and delay the enemy's movements. ”

What ......., take the initiative to provoke Nurhachi?

Xu Bing looked at the dots that Zhou Qingfeng circled on the map and asked, "What kind of place is this?" ”

"Gule Mountain." Zhou Qingfeng said: "When I was forced to go to Hetuara last year, I stayed there overnight. It was a fairly large stockade and the place was spacious and easy to stay. ”

Xu Bing heard that this place name was familiar, and immediately went to check the historical materials, "Gule Mountain? In the battle of Fushun in history, Nurhachi led his troops from Hetuara and arrived in Fushun for two days. The halfway break is on Gul Mountain. This place is equivalent to a military station, providing logistics services such as food and lodging for the army. ”

Now that the number of people in the team is also large, Zhou Qingfeng and the others understand that the team can rely on the food they carry for supply, and the team must find a suitable campsite. Otherwise, it will be difficult for tens of thousands of people to drink saliva. The kettle carried by a single soldier can only meet the needs of short-distance needs, and a two-well can solve hundreds of people at most. If it is tens of thousands of people, please go by the river.

Gule Mountain is close to the Suzi River, and the terrain is open and suitable for camping. If this place is destroyed, it will indeed bring a lot of trouble to Nurhachi. Li Shuwei said faintly: "Maybe Nurhachi has already started to store grain in Gule Mountain, if you can burn it ...... a fire." ”

Don't look at the Jurchens who constantly sell cattle, sheep and horses to the Ming Dynasty, in fact, they are very short of food. They sell big animals because they don't have anything else to get their hands on. If you can burn a batch of Nurhachi's grain, it can indeed effectively delay the dispatch of the opponent's army.

"It's decided, a sneak attack on Gule Mountain." Zhou Qingfeng threw the pen on the table, and made up his mind to fight: "If the enemy dares to harass us, we will return the color." We must not simply defend because we are afraid of the enemy's attack, we must also attack and disrupt the enemy's rhythm. The Ming army was cowardly and did not dare to go out of the city gates. Nurhachi certainly could not have imagined that we would dare to take the initiative. ”

Li Shuwei added: "I also have the initiative. But it is necessary to do a good job of reconnaissance in advance, and Guo Jiao's 'triplane' comes in handy. We can dive in from a low altitude and use binoculars or pretend to be approaching from the direction of Hetuara to get to the bottom of Gul Mountain and find the key points of the other side. ”

Xu Bing also said: "There is a batch of expired gunpowder stored in Fushun's arsenal, and I can organize a group of female workers to screen and remake this batch of gunpowder." It is also possible to buy a batch of gunpowder from the direction of Shenyang. Even if it can't be used as a bomb, it can be used to set fire. If you have any other needs, we can also buy and manufacture them immediately. ”

After the three of them made up their minds, they set out to act overnight.

After Zhou Qingfeng calculated the distance from Fushun to Gule Mountain, he quickly formulated a battle plan to set off in the afternoon, march 80 miles overnight to launch a surprise attack, and return to Fushun early the next morning. After the plan was decided, he pulled out the guards that night for a long-distance rapid march training.

Don't underestimate this rapid march of eighty miles, this is simply a figure that can only be completed by heavenly soldiers and generals at the end of the Ming Dynasty. Eating, drinking, pathfinding, resting, fighting, retreating, tedious things are countless. Add to that the difficulty of fighting at night. A normal Ming army can move ten miles a day to pass, and thirty miles belongs to the speed of God's blessing.

Xu Bing sent people to Shenyang to buy war materials at a high price in the name of Ye Hebu. As long as it costs money, the arsenal of the Ming army is completely open to anyone, even cannons can be sold. Many people in Shenyang officialdom have invested in the 'money-making treasure', and they heard that it was Ye Hebu's business, and they were released all the way. In order to be safe, Li Shuwei even went to Shenyang to serve as a purchaser in person.

Early the next morning, Zhou Qingfeng, who was tired all night, went to find Guo Jiao again. The two flew from a low altitude to Mount Gule on a 'triplane' to conduct reconnaissance. Zhou Qingfeng relied on his ability to speak Manchu, and really entered the village of Gule Mountain to step on the spot. He is familiar with the personnel of the Jurchen high-level, and he can patrol everywhere by assigning himself the identity of the master, and he does not suspect the coat he encounters along the way.

After scouting Gule Mountain, he was not satisfied, and Zhou Qingfeng flew along the road with Guo Jiao towards Hetu Ala. This time they flew 500 meters above the ground, and it looked like an eagle falcon came from the sky. After condescendingly observing carefully with a bronze telescope, Zhou Qingfeng didn't see anything else, but found that there were actually a few cranes flying outside Hetuara City, still carrying people.

"That's interesting." Zhou Qingfeng asked Guo Jiao to maintain a certain height and distance, and observed the cranes carrying people from a distance, and found that these cranes flew up to 100 meters above the ground, as if they were practicing a tactic of joining forces to hit the ground. "What are these guys trying to do? It seems to be constantly throwing spells or throwing things at the ground. Do you want to attack us Fushun with air? ”

Awesome!

Zhou Qingfeng hadn't come up with any good way to use the 'triplane' to carry out ground attacks, and these Jiannu had already understood the concept of aerial bombardment. Guo Jiao, who was piloting the 'triplane', was disdainful of those slow-moving cranes, but she was excited because she had an opponent in the air, she subconsciously wanted to go over and say hello to those 'weak birds', Zhou Qingfeng hurriedly stopped it.

"Nope." Zhou Qingfeng grabbed Guo Jiao's shoulder and shook his head again and again, "You are not allowed to go, don't startle the snake." ”

In the whistling gale, Guo Jiao couldn't hear what Zhou Qingfeng said. She took a pair of swimming goggles that Zhou Qingfeng got from the isolated island of time and space as goggles, pursed her lips in dissatisfaction, and turned around and left Hetuala.

Waiting to return to Fushun in the afternoon, Zhou Qingfeng informed Xu Bing of his reconnaissance: "Gule Mountain is indeed stockpiling grain, I asked a few slaves who transported grain, and it is said that the master who ordered them asked them to transport grain from a full twelve granaries. I have seen the size of those granaries on the spot, which can basically meet the rations of 10,000 people for five days.

Nurhachi used the Suzi River to transport grain, and the hoarding speed was very fast, and it would take another five to seven days to get all the grain in place. You and Li Shuwei guessed correctly, our great enemy has indeed reduced the scale of mobilization and accelerated the speed of mobilization. Yesterday, the five Jurchens came to do pre-war reconnaissance. Their outpost was on the Gule Mountains. ”

The enemy situation was clear, and Xu Bing breathed a sigh of relief. Knowing when the enemy is coming, the more targeted your layout will be. She sighed, then smiled again and asked, "When are you going to launch a night raid?" ”

"Three days later." Zhou Qingfeng considered that the current long-distance attack training of the guards was not qualified, and decided to give the soldiers extra meals in the past two days. "Two more days of practice, one day off. Three days later, in the afternoon, all the people rode on horseback, and the whole team moved. Hit and go, never stop. ”

Xu Bing also nodded and said, "Okay, I'll prepare five hundred arson bombs in three days." The quantity is enough, it will not be worse than your talisman, and it will be much cheaper. By the way, I'm going to fight with you in three days. ”

Without waiting for Zhou Qingfeng to object, Li Shuwei, who was in the dust, also came back from outside the house and shouted, "I'm going too." This Shandong man set off overnight and rushed back for several days, bringing back urgently purchased military supplies, and also brought back a heart for war, "I fought too badly last time." But I can't hide behind women and children every time, so I have to go to war. ”

"Wait...... who do you say is the child?"

"Isn't that you, you're only thirteen."

"Hell, I'm just thirteen on the look."

"That's a thirteen-year-old, too."

"I'm past Abahai."

", with what you say, I'm going to go to war even more. I can't say anything and don't lose the face of my Shandong people, I'm going to Rihai Lanzhu. ”
