Li Yunrui and Bao Jiusun are still in charge, and Huang Shihuo is mainly because his subordinates tried to question his decision. If it is a matter of facts, Huang Shi also thinks that these two people still need to be tested, after all, they have followed him for too short a time, and they have not yet completed the digestion and absorption of these two people.

In the end, the medal reform was not carried out, because the prestige of the reserves was basically spent, and there was no need to expect to recover the capital before the reform brought benefits.

At this time, on the coast of Liaohai, the governors of the Ming army were trying their best to produce materials and gather manpower. After some deliberation, Mao Wenlong believed that after this period of recuperation, the Ming army in Liaodong regained its offensive capability.

In July of the second year of the Apocalypse, the Ming army conquered the cherry vortex and burned the dangerous mountain fort.

In August, the Ming army recaptured the Vortex Station Fort.

In September, the Ming army recaptured Changcheng and immediately defeated the Houjin army at the Battle of Manpu, forcing the Houjin to abandon the fortress on their own initiative.

"My lord, Mao Junmen will definitely send troops in a big way. He Dingyuan was high-spirited, and the Ming army's successive victories in the past three months had greatly boosted the morale of the people in the Dongjiang River, and Changsheng Island was no exception: "Our department must kill slaves first and seize the merits." ”

He Baodao strongly advocated an attack on Fuzhou, but Huangshi was not optimistic about this kind of military adventure. The Tang newspaper is indeed a good place, and the estimated number of enemies destroyed by the Ming army in Liaodong is one to twenty thousand. However, Huang Shi did not have this confidence, although he was not very clear about the specific situation, but he felt that this figure was good to use in the customs to cheer up people's hearts, but it still could not be used as a military basis.

Huangshi convened an emergency military meeting on this matter, and brought the four thousand generals to discuss, if the call for war was too strong, then Huangshi planned to attack the small troops in Fuzhou to train the troops.

"There are about 5,000 soldiers in Mao's army, and the number of enemies killed in the past few months seems to be a bit much?" At the meeting, Huang Shizi carefully expressed his doubts, with a total record of nearly 20,000 in three months, "On average, each soldier has to kill three Jiannu, is it a little more?"

"What's that, one person can kill seven or eight in a day. He Baodao said nonchalantly, and the other three Qianzong did not speak, but each figured out what he wanted to express in Huangshi's words.

"The old law of the Han and Tang Dynasties, killing the enemy in the army is rewarded tenfold, the external deterrence is not subordinate, and the internal peace of the people," Huang Shi did not want to be regarded as a pessimist by his subordinates, so he was very careful in both his words and tone: "I'm afraid that all the generals and Mao Junmen have this consideration, right?"

Although Huang Shi's words were very tactful, He Baodao was already a little dissatisfied, "That Jiannu has also suffered a heavy loss! My lord, if you don't hurry up and grab the merit, my subordinates are afraid that they won't have to rob it." ”

Zhao Slowxiong finally came out to help, and he felt that he had read the meaning: "There are about 30,000 soldiers in Jiannu, as well as the Han army and the unarmored soldiers, which are still stronger than our army." ”

Guerrilla warfare is generally a tactic used by the inferior side, and when the strength is strong, it is naturally more inclined to fight, so after more than half a year of rectification, the Ming army on the islands of Liaodong began to turn to the counteroffensive one after another. But Huang Shi is worried that the Dongjiang River is already hot-headed, and history tells him that Houjin is not so easy to pinch soft persimmons. The generals of various ministries are more likely to pour water into the battle record, and then influence each other to create a wind of comparison, resulting in collective judgment errors.

"How are the recruits training?" Huang Shi didn't wait for He Baodao to speak again, and asked Yang Zhiyuan.

Yang Zhiyuan glanced at He Baodao apologetically: "Lord Hui, my subordinates are incompetent, and our troops are less than five hundred." ”

"It's none of your business," Huang Shi waved his hand generously, and he originally knew the answer: "There is not enough weapons, and there is no way to do it." ”

"The subordinates are incompetent. "This time it's Kim Qiude's turn to apologize.

Although nominally a few people are in charge of each other, but when Changshan was founded, there were more than 1,000 people on the island, and Huangshi was also a matter of responsibility. After all this work was done, such as leveling the land, building ships and fishing, building ports, and setting up camp tents, there was very little time left for making ordnance and organizing training.

In the past few months, Huangshi has finally reclaimed 5,000 acres of land, and planted all sesame seeds, completely suppressing weeds. At the same time, he also made some weapons, namely two hundred oak spears, and he had planned to make some wooden bows, but the bows and arrows were less powerful and more complicated, so he gave up.

"That's it, our troops can't go on the march. Huang Shi looked at He Baodao, who looked disappointed, and ruthlessly vetoed the proposal: "Attacking Fuzhou will not be allowed." ”

Not going to Fuzhou to send you to death does not mean that you will not carry out any military action. After careful inventory, Huang Shi felt that it was no problem to dispatch 300 soldiers, and the key was that the battle must be able to save himself and weaken the enemy.

"Let's start with the operational objectives. One of Yellowstone's newest rules is to give mission briefings so that every officer understands the purpose of the operation and the general plan.

All the officers, four thousand generals and eight generals, waited quietly, and Huang Shi cleared his throat: "The target of this attack is a village, with a total of twenty-two households, and our army will carry all the villagers to Changsheng Island, and take away all the grain, grass, farm tools, livestock and furniture. ”

The veterans of Yellowstone were basically armed with iron weapons and twenty strong bows. Two hundred peasant soldiers each had a spear in their hands, and every two recruits had a veteran belt. The three hundred soldiers were divided into four teams, each of which led a team, and the fire battalion was dispatched for this operation.

"The village we are going to is twenty miles from the coast, and forty-eight miles from Fuzhou Wei, and the vanguard of our army is He Qianzong, and the time of arrival should be two o'clock in Shen, and the rest of the troops will also arrive later. "Yellowstone doesn't intend to use vague words like evening and dusk.

"Try not to let people escape and report the news, but even if there is, it doesn't matter, they can't reach Fuzhou before the city gates are closed after dark. Tonight to complete the operation, return to the coast before dawn, leave by boat, our army has no reconnaissance ability, so we must act in strict accordance with the plan. ”

There are only three horses on Changsheng Island, and the ability to scout in 6 places is very low.

Mao Wenlong's order to all ministries is to treat civilians well, and this Huang Shi also understands very well: "In this operation, civilians are not allowed to be harmed, they will be part of our army, your future subordinates." ”

Speaking of this, Huang Shi smiled slyly: "Of course, you don't need to explain this to the villagers in advance, if anyone is very frightened, you can appease it, but don't say it's my order, but let the soldiers say, 'We won't hurt you.'" In short, it is to be appeased in the name of soldiers. Don't let the villagers rebel out of too much fear, but don't let them be unscrupulous. ”
