Yunnan, on the border, in an unknown town in the Red River Basin.

The town that used to be sparsely populated is now crowded with people.

The military commander of the Mu family in Yunnan is stationed here.

At this moment, Mu Cong, the Duke of Qianguo, sat in the handsome tent, handed a spy report in his hand to a tall middle-aged man next to him, and said, "Uncle, look, the Guangxi Metropolitan Division over there has stirred up a good mess for us!" ”

The middle-aged man's name is Mu Zhan, Mu Lan's brother.

In the first year of Jingtai, Mu Cong's father Mu Bin died of illness, and Mu Cong was not long after he was born, so he could not inherit the title of Duke of Qianguo, and the town of Yunnan also needed someone to preside over it.

So Mu Bin's cousin Mu Lan was ordered to take the governor of Tongzhi to replace Yunnan.

As a result, Mu Lan also died of illness within a few years.

However, Mu Cong is still very young.

had no choice, so he let Mu Lan's younger brother Mu Zan continue to represent Yunnan, and it was not until Zhu Jianji ascended the throne that Mu Cong hereditarily replaced the title of Duke of Qianguo and took over the power of guarding Yunnan.

But he still respects Mu Zan very much.

Everything is discussed with Mu Zhan.

It's not because Mu Cong hasn't controlled the power of Yunnan yet, it's really because Mu Zan is also a talent.

In these years, Mu Zan managed the top and bottom only in an orderly manner.

It's just that from the southern expansion of the Ming Dynasty this year, the whole army of Yunnan went out to conquer Nanzhang, and Mu Cong said that Yunnan was responsible for half of the grain and grass logistics, which was the confidence that Mu Zan gave him.

And Mu Cong is still young, although he followed Cheng Guogong, British Gong and others to see the Jinge Group Army fighting the Jurchens and learned a certain amount of firearms knowledge, but after all, he is younger.

Battlefield experience is almost non-existent.

Therefore, this time on this expedition, the military is basically based on Mu Zhan's opinion.

Mu Zan took the spy report and looked at it, and said with a smile: "This is the vision that the commander of the Guangxi Metropolitan Division should have, having said that, I don't think Liu Jing has the vision to make this move, but it may be the plan of Zhang Peng and Peng Shi, and then pull Han Ping to persuade Liu Jing together." ”

The noble generals of the Ming Dynasty......

In recent years, it has become more and more defeated.

On the contrary, the generals from the bottom are more capable, such as Fan Biao and Han Bin, and Wang Yue, Zhao Er, Chen Qi, Li Jiu and others of the Jinge Group Army, plus Zhang Bu and Xiang Yu, who are in charge of the South China Sea Fleet in Taiwan, and Zhao Mu and Bai Qingzhi, who command the Zhenbei Army in the Hetao area.

Not surprisingly, within a few decades, these people will become the pillars of the Ming army.

Mu Cong said: "Uncle, what do you think of this step of Guangxi Dusi." ”

Mu Zan was silent for a while, "Because of the spy news on the Mobei side, coupled with the strength of the four-nation alliance in the Indochina Peninsula cannot be underestimated, this made His Majesty Emperor Guang'an choose to seek stability in the strategy of the Southern Expedition, so we have been confronting Nanzhang for many days, because there is no absolutely good fighter plane, we can't attack, if we continue to fight like this, we can really survive, but the waste of grain and grass is too big, and it is also an overdraft of the army's heart, it is better to fight a good fight, however, it can be fought, but the four-nation alliance army of the Indochina Peninsula is five or six hundred thousand people, We are not sure of winning, and we cannot afford to lose in the current situation. ”

Mu Cong said with a smile: "Uncle has said it many times, and my nephew's ears are calloused, and I ask my uncle to say the point." ”

Mu Zan also smiled, "Do you think Your Majesty wants a stalemate in the war in the south?" ”

Mu Cong thought for a while, "I don't want to." ”

Mu Zan continued: "Then do you think that my local forces such as Yunnan, Jiaozhi, and Guangxi do not want the war in the south to stalemate, or do the four countries of the Indochina Peninsula want the war to stalemate in the south?" ”

Mu Cong didn't even think about it, "I don't want to." ”

Yunnan, Guangxi, and Jiaozhi don't want a stalemate in the war, because it consumes too much grain and grass, and with such a toss, Yunnan Jiaozhi can't follow His Majesty's footsteps to engage in economy.

Making money is king.

Guangxi Dusi didn't want to stalemate, because they held their breath.

The four countries of Indochina do not want a stalemate, because they cannot afford to consume grain and grass brought about by the perennial stalemate.

Mu Zan said: "Then now the Guangxi Metropolitan Division has broken the game!" ”

Mu Cong thought for a while, "But now that Jiaozhi has encountered a problem, Panluo Cha led 100,000 soldiers to attack the area of Guang'an Prefecture in Jiaozhi, and the available soldiers of Han level are only 70,000, the key is that there are still many new soldiers in these 70,000 miles, and it is estimated that they will not be able to withstand the crazy counterattack of Zhancheng." ”

Mu Zan said: "Yes, even if the imperial court learns the news now, and the troops of the Huguang Metropolitan Division and the Guizhou Metropolitan Division are dispatched to help, it will be beyond the reach of the whip, and the only one who can save the Korean level at the moment is our Yunnan troops!" ”

Because it's close!

Mu Cong was a little worried, "After we transfer some of our troops to Jiaozhi, if Nanzhang, Phnom Penh and Dacheng know the news, and their remaining four or five hundred thousand people will attack with all their might, will our remaining troops be able to withstand it?" ”

Mu Zan laughed, "A group of rabble, why bother!" ”

Mu Cong immediately knew what Mu Zan meant, "Then we quickly divide our troops to support Han Ping, what about 100,000?" ”

Mu Zan said: "It's too much." ”

He also said: "Don't underestimate Han's level, he is a military general who has followed Fan Biao all the way since Taiwan, and he is by no means comparable to old generals like you and me, and the combat power of the old soldiers of the Jiaozhi Division is amazing, so it is enough to send 50,000 people, after all, we must ensure that our front-line troops are not too disadvantaged." ”

Mu Cong smiled: "Then it depends on my uncle's policy." ”

Suddenly, he said: "This matter is postponed for two days? ”

Mu Zan was puzzled, "Why?" ”

Mu Cong smiled and said nothing.

Mu Zan suddenly came to his senses, but he didn't say anything - because this move was reasonable.

The capital of Guangxi went straight to the battlefield and the royal capital, and his hometown was gone, and he must be desperate, and the 100,000 army of Zhancheng still did not dare to underestimate it in a desperate situation.

Let the Han-level Jiaozhi Division go to consume for a while!

If you guess correctly, on the Jiaozhi side, Zhang Peng and Peng Shi will definitely signal that new soldiers will be put into the battlefield, which can effectively consume the troops of Panluo Chasui, so that the reinforcements from Yunnan will not be under much pressure.

And he can also save Jiaozhi Dusi at a critical moment, and he has to take this favor Han level.

Besides, this move is also to preserve Yunnan's troops as much as possible.

But Mu Zan still felt that this move was easy for His Majesty Emperor Guang'an to see clearly the selfishness of Yunnan, so he said: "It can be postponed for a day or two, but the reinforcements will be personally led by me to reinforce Jiaozhi." ”

I still want to give Emperor Guang'an an an attitude to prove that I Yunnan did not despise the status of Jiaozhi.

Mu Cong shook his head, "It's not good, it's better for my nephew to go." ”

Mu Zan is needed here.

Mu Zan thought about it, after all, Jiaozhi has Han level, you can rest assured, and said: "Then you will lead an army of 50,000 to reinforce Jiaozhi, and after you arrive in Jiaozhi, hand over the military power to Han Ping, you just have to watch more, listen and learn more." ”

Mu Cong smiled: "My nephew knows!" ”

Mu Zan got up, "I have to prepare, Panluo Cha will attack Jiaozhi, Nanzhang, Dacheng and Phnom Penh will definitely attack us, in order to restrain us, and prevent us from supporting Jiaozhi, I estimate that there will be several major battles in the next few days." ”

】

Mu Cong laughed, "My nephew even thinks that the war will end in three months!" ”

The Guangxi Metropolitan Division attacked and occupied the city to break the situation.

Trimester.

It may only take three months for the Ming Dynasty to defeat all the living forces in the Indochina Peninsula!
