Chapter 149: The Supreme Military and Political Council (II)

Chu He's expression was solemn, and he read the letter from Zhou Shikai twice from beginning to end, and made sure that there was no information missing.

It has been clearly written above that the army of 100,000 Chi Kings is about to arrive in the Spring Valley Plain, and will set up five large camps there in an attempt to conquer Dachong Pass.

And Zhou Shikai's Eastern Territory Army will stand still to give the Liang army a chance to attack.

But it was obvious that Han Jun must have asked the Eastern Frontier Army to act with them, and Zhou Shikai would eventually lead the army to the Spring Valley Plain, even if he delayed for all reasons.

Of course, it is impossible for the Eastern Border Army to flank the Chiwang Army with their Liang Army, that is to poke a hole in the sky, Zhou Shikai does not have this kind of courage and courage, he can delay time as much as possible, and let the Chiwang Army become a lone army, It is already the maximum cooperation he can make.

And he obviously can't drag on for too long, if King Chi's side falls into a bitter battle, and he doesn't go to help for a long time, it will be a big deal, and the Shengguo court will definitely make a big fuss about it.

Therefore, Chu He instantly judged the key to this battle, that is, the word "fast".

It is necessary to send troops quickly, and take advantage of the fact that Han Jun has just arrived at Hegu Road, his foothold is not stable, and the defense facilities of the five battalions are not yet perfect, and he will attack and attack hard.

At the same time, we must do our best to fight quickly, if it takes too long and wait for the Eastern Frontier Army to come, then the situation will be complicated.

Without delay, Chu He immediately handed the letter to Chen Shi.

Chen Shifei took a quick look, and his face gradually became solemn.

Chu He leaned over and said in a low voice: "The fighter plane is fleeting, and it must be fought quickly." ”

Chen Shi handed the letter to Xu Conghu next to him.

As soon as Xu Conghu took a look, he knew that this was the news sent by Zhou Shikai. Chu He not only knew about the transaction between Chu He and King Ming, but also participated in it, so when he saw the information written on it, he was still mentally prepared.

Like Chu He, he also read it twice from beginning to end, then folded the letter and handed it back to Chen Shi.

"I agree with Chu He's opinion, we must get as soon as possible, and even we should move now. There's no point in sitting here and rambling. ”

Even in the face of the general, Xu Conghu was unceremonious.

But Chen Shi had long been accustomed to the way he spoke, so he didn't care, but raised his head and opened his mouth to give orders.

"Except for the commanders of the old Eighth Battalion and the Sixteenth New Battalion, the rest of the people immediately returned to their respective posts. In addition, I would like to tell you that from now on, Ochong Pass has officially entered a state of war! I don't want to see a mistake in any of them! ”

Except for the twenty-four commanders, the rest of the people immediately stood up and walked out quickly.

The reason why they were allowed to go first was because Chen Shi's next deployment was too important, and he was afraid that someone would leak secrets and affect the overall situation.

The commanders and generals of each battalion are all experienced warriors, and Chen Shi's trust in them is 100%, without a trace of doubt.

But now these people are different, most of them are literati, although the possibility of collaborating with the enemy is extremely low, but they also have to be careful.

This battle, whether it is for Chen Shi or Liang Jun, is too important to allow the slightest mistake.

At this time, Jiang Wuxian, who was about to go out with him, was stopped by Chen Shi with his mouth open.

"Hey, what are you doing?"

Chu He opened his mouth, and before he could speak, he was blocked back by Chen Shi.

"Come back quickly! Is your military strategy department used to being a hands-off shopkeeper? ”

Although Chu He is still holding the position of the director of the Military Policy Department, Jiang Wuxian has already been reinstated in essence.

Seeing Jiang Wuxian sit back on his chair, Chen Shi suddenly rolled his eyes and stretched out his finger to point to the empty seat next to the long table.

"Sit down here."

Jiang Wuxian naturally didn't dare to say anything more, and sat down at the table obediently.

Chu He deliberately observed He Jun, and when he saw that his expression had not changed much, he was relieved.

Jiang Wuxian, this kid, said that he was looking for time to apologize to He Jun, but this matter never landed, and Chu He thought that when this battle was over, he would have to drag him to the daily camp to apologize.

Seeing Jiang Wuxian sitting at the table, most people didn't have much idea, after all, this former director of the Military Strategy Department who was considered to have no last resort was also a little prestigious.

Only the young Huozhao camp master Li Qing looked unhappy, obviously quite interested in the fact that he was not on the table.

Chu He, who was good at observation, saw all these in his eyes, and secretly laughed, thinking that this kid was not only a war maniac, but also an official fan.

In the council hall, everyone who should leave has left, Chen Shi pointed to the open door, "Close the door." ”

Before others could react, the energetic Li Qing stood up suddenly, and then trotted to close the door.

Chen Shiyang raised the information in his hand, and then spoke: "This is the information that has just come from the west, Han Jun's 100,000 elites are rushing to the Spring Valley Plain of Hegu Road, where they are going to build five large camps. ”

As soon as these words came out, the rumors in the council hall tightened a little.

The Spring Valley Plain is two hundred miles away from Dachong Pass, and everyone here has an innate sensitivity to war, and they know that the big war is really not far away.

After making a start, Chen Shi no longer spoke, but motioned to Chu He to speak.

Chu He was a little surprised, but he didn't hesitate, and said directly: "According to our intelligence, Zhou Shikai's Eastern Territory Army will not act synchronously with the Chiwang Army for the time being. ”

There was an uproar in the council hall.

He Jun couldn't help but ask, "General Chu, are you sure that the Eastern Territory Army will not assist King Chi?" ”

Chu He showed a relaxed smile, "At least for half a month, the Eastern Territory Army will not set foot in the Spring Valley Plain, and I can take responsibility for this." ”

Chen Shi glared at him, quite dissatisfied with Chu He's behavior of taking responsibility for himself.

He Jun still didn't seem to believe that Sheng Guo could let the Chi Wang Army become a lone army, and asked: "General Chu, I'm not questioning, it's just that what you said is too unbelievable. Whether or not there is an Eastern Army in our military plan is a world of difference. If we only plan to deal with the Chi King and ignore the Ming King, it is possible to ......"

At this time, Xu Conghu suddenly spoke and interrupted him.

"Don't think about it so much, I believe in the words of General Chu Bing. At least in this half a month, Zhou Shikai and his Eastern Frontier Army will not interfere, if there are really any consequences, I will bear it with him. Time is running out now, and we cannot afford to waste time on such meaningless arguments. ”

Listening to Xu Conghu's words, He Jun's face suddenly turned red, and he lowered his head and stopped talking.

Xu Conghu looked at Chu He and motioned for him to continue.

Chu He nodded and said, "General He's concern just now is naturally not unreasonable, but this is the work of our Military Strategy Department, and if I say that if I am sure, it will not go wrong." Now what we are going to discuss is how to eat the Chiwang Army in the shortest possible time, before the Eastern Frontier Army intervenes! ”

"If it's possible, we'll keep Han Jun here!"
