Yesterday, it was Hou Yongshou, the commander of Ning Yuanwei, who shouted that he was going to blow the trumpet in the city, and after wiping his face twice, he said that he would take over the wind and dust for the Liaodong General Army who had just taken office.

Yu Jingning waved his hand at the person and refused: "There is no need to catch the wind and wash the dust, let the brothers rest and rest first." ”

Four-fifths of the guards in the Ningyuan Acropolis were gone, and the rest were also wounded and disabled, physically and mentally exhausted, and they could hardly hold on.

So for a long time, whether it was the military doctor in Ningyuan City or brought from Beijing, he was never idle. Then the city defense was arranged, and all the guards who could not hold it were replaced, and they were busy until the sun rose and the sky was empty.

Yu Zhiwei and Yu Jingning hurriedly had lunch before they were able to take a break.

An hour passed in the blink of an eye, and Yu Zhiwei went to the main tent in full dress at her brother's request.

Now in the army, she can't dress up as a daughter's family, Yu Zhiwei is wearing a military uniform, looking extremely heroic, she paused at the door of the tent for a moment, and called out: "Big brother." ”

"Come in." The familiar voice of a young man could be heard inside.

Yu Zhiwei lifted the curtain and entered, and saw a huge map of the territory of Liaodong, and Yu Jingning raised his head and stood in front of the territory map.

Hearing Yu Zhiwei's footsteps, Yu Jingning opened his mouth and asked, "Do you know where we are now?" ”

"Ning Yuan." After Yu Zhiwei finished answering, he felt that he should not ask himself such a simple question, so he raised his hand and pointed to the map and said, "It's here." ”

She didn't have a good sense of direction, although she followed Yu Jingning for more than 800 miles, but she didn't realize how she came over, and now when she saw this picture, she clearly realized the direction of Ning Yuan.

Ningyuan is a place outside the pass, if you retreat further, you will retreat to the Great Wall.

Within the Great Wall is the Jingshi, which is the vast Central Plains land of fertile fields.

She understood when she landed, and when she arrived, she would rather have to advance, not retreat.

"I came here today, and I found out why Wuliang Ha Sanwei hit Ning Yuan so easily." Yu Jingning turned around and motioned for Yu Zhiwei to stand beside him, "Liaodong's garrison is too weak. The position of the Daheng Jingshi is "the Son of Heaven guarding the country", if the Liaodong line is useless, and it will be broken as soon as it is attacked, it is useless to rely on the Great Wall. ”

"Daheng now relies on Shanhaiguan in the northeast, and people are blinded in Beijing, and they are always unaware of this problem." Yu Jingning picked up the pen on the table, dipped it in cinnabar, and glanced back at Yu Zhiwei, "I told you before that the children of our Yu family all grew up with swords in their hands, even if it is the daughter's family. ”

After that, he drew a circle on the map, "Now I'll teach you the first thing, let's march and fight, and we have to take a long-term view." ”

Yu Zhiwei scratched her ears and cheeks, hating herself for not being able to take a notebook to write down what Yu Jingning said.

She was afraid that Yu Jingning would bring her to the border just because of a temporary selfish burden, and she had to report some military merits to her at every turn, just to ask for a county lord's title. Now it seems that he really wants to give Yu Zhiwei what his father taught him before.

The vast territory has been seen a lot, and the capital is a drop in the ocean; I have seen the fight of real swords and guns, and I know that the battles in the boudoir in the past were just small fights. People are soaking on the battlefield, and they have cultivated a whole set of strategic layout thoughts, and no matter what situation they face in the future, they will have a way to solve them one by one.

Yu Zhiwei rushed to his head with a wave of youthful enthusiasm, and his limbs seemed to have been washed once, and all the bitterness, grievances and careful thoughts that were held out in Beijing were washed away.

Sure enough, Yu Jingning can only stay in the army, that is the real Yu Jingning.

"It's not just Ning Yuan." Yu Jingning said as he drew it on the map, "There are also Jinzhou, Guangning, and one line should be connected, so that my Daheng's northeast defense line can be pushed north for 200 miles, and it will no longer be stretched thin now." ”

Ningyuan is 200 miles north of Shanhaiguan, and if Ningyuan is used as an important town to be deployed and the line is led by points, it is undoubtedly widening the strategic depth of Shanhaiguan.

"Therefore, the next step for the eldest brother is to write to the imperial court and let you stay in Liaodong for a while longer, so that this defense line can at least be made into a rudiment." Yu Zhiwei's brain turned quickly, and he immediately understood the reason, "I have found out the prototype, and it will not be difficult to build it in the future."

As for why it was a prototype - she really didn't want to pour cold water on Yu Jingning.

The royal family detained Yu Jingning in Beijing, originally to contain the king of Pingshuo who was far away in the northwest, and now the father and son are one northwest and one northeast, and they are all far away from the emperor. One day, if the brain draws up the troops and goes south, with the strength and guards of the three melons and two dates in the Beijing Division, He Xiao's little cub won't even have time to cry.

If the war in Liaodong subsides in the future, how can Yu Jingning stay in Liaodong all the time, isn't it self-respecting to support the army.

Or, simply, really against the fuck?

Yu Zhiwei's thought only appeared in his heart for a moment, and he immediately suppressed it.

If you don't talk about some roundabout tactics, you will directly talk to him, "Since the royal family is not good to you, we have the ability to do the opposite, why do you want to let this Ningjin defense line make wedding clothes for others, just lay it out and turn it back, won't the predicament of the Yu family be solved?" "Not to mention the friendship on the side, their brother-sister friendship can also come to an end directly.

If you can't solve the problem, then solve the person who created the problem, simple and rude, how refreshing. Yu Zhiwei puffed out his mouth, and could only think about it in his heart.

Yu Jingning didn't know how to read minds, so naturally he couldn't think of what Yu Zhiwei was thinking, so he just put aside the topic and asked Yu Zhiwei: "You also watched a battle today, but can you see the current situation?" What should we do in the future? ”

Yu Zhiwei pondered for a moment: "Most of the Hu people are better at riding and shooting, and Wuliangha should be no exception. ”

Yu Jingning nodded slightly.

"But now that the most powerful iron cavalry of my Daheng is still in the northwest, and the Uliangha has twice as many troops as ours, we must not be able to confront it head-on." Yu Zhiwei analyzed them one by one, "But we are not completely without advantages. They are in the wilderness, but we have walls to lean on—and this city of Ningyuan is the best barrier. Besides, I've never seen this group of Hu people have firearms in their hands, except for the use of that large wooden cart......"

Yu Jingning added: "The car. ”

"Ang, the chariot," Yu Zhiwei continued, "except for the chariot, I haven't seen a way to use it." Therefore, our army should do its best to give full play to its strength, 'rely on strong cities and use cannons' in order to have a way to win. ”

"There is a cloud in the Art of War: 'The method of using soldiers, ten is to surround it, five to attack it, and to divide it if it is doubled.'" With nearly 60,000 horses, it is impossible to confront Uliangha head-on, but it is absolutely enough to defend the city. ”
