For Jiannu's counteroffensive, from the emperor to the military department, and then to the generals below, they were all expected.

If there is no action, it is like sitting and waiting to die, waiting until the food and grass materials are exhausted, and they will be defeated without a fight. While there is still some strength, it is normal for the trapped beast to fight in order to get a chance.

And the direction of Jiannu's launch is only two in southern Liaoning and eastern Liaoning.

Liaoxi is separated by the Liao River and Liaoze, and it is a deep ditch barrier, Jiannu has suffered several big losses in the attack, and it should not repeat the mistakes of the past;

Liaodong is far away from Liaoshen, and even if Jiannu can win, the loss will not be small. Against the Ming army in southern Liaoning, I am afraid it will be difficult to protect Liaoshen.

Liaonan is a sharp knife that reaches the heart of Jiannu, and if the threat is not lifted, Jiannu will always have to gather heavy troops in Liaoshen, and it is difficult to carry out large-scale operations in other directions.

Xiong Tingbi led the army to deploy defenses on the bank of the Haicheng River, and did not rush to attack the Haizhou Acropolis, but also out of the intention of preventing the Jiannu from falling into the nest.

Moreover, when the army is assembled, whether it wants to attack or not, it is like a duel between masters, and it is the most terrifying and unpredictable when the sword is not drawn.

With more troops, more artillery, and stronger defenses, there was room to retreat to the defense even if the attack was thwarted.

The emperor has already launched the "power of the whole country", and even if this battle is not won, it cannot be defeated miserably, which makes the emperor lose face.

This may be a truth that the military department, and even the front-line generals, understand.

Invest a lot of money, even at the expense of offending the scholars, offending the powerful clan and the civil official group, for what?

If such hard work and hard work cannot get a reasonable result, the wrath of thunder is something that can be imagined.

Especially in the past few years, although most of the victories have been achieved by relying on defense, it is true that there have been no major defeats.

It is precisely because of this that the emperor, who is accustomed to listening to good news, and the people of the Ming Dynasty, how will they react when they hear about the fiasco? Who would want to be the first loser and taste a rare defeat?

Therefore, everyone wants to make meritorious contributions, and it is also the goal of life to worship the marquis. However, in actual combat, everyone still maintained a bit of caution and did not dare to underestimate the enemy.

The main ones are Xiong Tingbi and Mao Wenlong, they are the coaches of one side, and they have the greatest responsibility, and they dare not take it lightly.

Now that the battle plan has been basically decided, we should be vigorous and fully prepared to fight the most certain battle and win the most certain victory.

To prepare is to wait, but not to idle. The training of the army, the arrangement of defenses, the construction of fortifications, the receipt of grain, grass, materials, weapons and ammunition, and the coordinated drills of various departments to strengthen the running-in.

You know, the emperor made a bloody investment. Not only are the equipment and materials being desperately transported, but even the martial arts students are almost all sent to enrich the Liaodong troops.

In particular, the cadets of the artillery section, together with the shrewd soldiers selected from the troops, after training, the artillery of the Ming army was greatly strengthened.

That's it, the emperor was not satisfied, and specially explained to Sun Yuanhua, worked overtime to produce and manufacture rockets, and sent them to Liaodong for Jiannu to taste it.

The autumn wind is getting colder, the leaves are yellowing, and the scenery is gradually showing a bleak appearance.

The emperor, who is far away in Beijing, has done everything he can do, but he can't be completely assured.

After retiring from the dynasty, he returned to the Qianqing Palace, and was thinking about it again, thinking about what other surprising and winning tricks he could think of, and then surprise Jiannu.

Looks like it's gone?! After thinking for a while, the emperor smiled bitterly, feeling that almost all the things in his mind that could adapt to the war of this era had been taken out.

Airplanes, tanks, that's pure fantasy, you can't even build rifled guns!

Feeling a little thirsty, the emperor subconsciously licked his lips, and as soon as he raised his head, a pair of jade hands were already holding a teacup and sending it over.

Xiaohui is getting more and more at it.

The emperor looked at Xiaohui's somewhat flattering smile, warmed his head, took two sips of the teacup, and asked, "Isn't it time to be on duty?" ”

"Back to the emperor, Cheng Cheng is not feeling well, so he will report to the emperor." Fan Xiaohui took the teacup and bowed down to reply.

"Have you found a doctor?" The emperor frowned slightly and turned his face to look at Fan Xiaohui.

Fan Xiaohui's face was a little red, and she snorted: "It doesn't matter, just drink some brown sugar water and rest more." ”

Oh, I know, Cheng Cheng is a relative.

The Emperor turned his gaze away, and casually took the notebook on the table and flipped through it.

Even Duan Chunfei has it, why hasn't Chengcheng moved yet? I've slept in the Qianqing Palace a lot of times, huh?

Reading and watching the music is not a big deal, the emperor's brain can still be cranky.

The emperor stretched out his hand to pick up the red pen, and Fan Xiaohui had already stepped forward to polish the cinnabar, waiting for the emperor to approve it.

After pondering for a while, the emperor wrote an instruction for the editor-in-chief of the "Daming Forum", to publicize the science and practicality of pox in the newspaper.

The Fu family, known for their "Taiping pox seedlings", was summoned to Beijing, summoned by the emperor, and after repeated inquiries, received the will to promote planting and was given an official position.

However, judging from the actual effect, the promotion in the capital is not smooth, and the traditional concept is still very hindered.

Forced pox was one solution, but the emperor still did not want such a decree. At least, he thinks that according to the current situation, even if the will is made, it is difficult to say how effective it will be.

"Tomorrow, summon Fu Jiasheng into the palace and plant pox for the two little princesses." The emperor put down the pen and finally made up his mind.

This is not only good for the two little princesses, but also can play a great role in publicity, but it does not make everyone understand. Zhang Yuer didn't dare to disobey openly, but her words and attitude were still quite concerning.

In fact, even Zhu Youxiao is not completely at ease. But according to his knowledge, he already believes that human pox surgery is relatively safe and reliable.

Of course, there is rarely a 100% probability of success, there may be a very low probability of failure, or side effects, but the emperor does not think that it will fall on his children so coincidentally.

I'm afraid I have to do this!

The emperor sighed, as if he had accomplished a great event, and leaned lightly on the imperial chair.

"Something?" Noticing that Fan Xiaohui's expression was a little strange, the emperor raised his eyebrows and asked casually.

Fan Xiaohui nodded hurriedly, and said with some surprise: "Sister Chengcheng is not feeling well, if the emperor sleeps in the Dongnuan Pavilion at night, she will let me wait for the emperor." ”

The emperor blinked and guessed what Li Chengcheng meant. This is to fulfill good friends, I don't want to let the two North Korean girls take advantage of the opportunity because they can't serve.

——————

Looking at Fan Xiaohui's expression, the emperor knew that this girl was not very clear about the real content of the night wait. Of course, this also depends mainly on your own concentration.

However, in front of beautiful women, I have the determination to fart. At first, I wanted to just cuddle and sleep, but the salty pig hand can be honest, and he will throw his concentration out of the sky and the clouds after groping.

This girl doesn't seem to understand the affairs of men and women, so it's better to be special. The Emperor pinched his chin and smiled meaningfully.

I'll quietly blindfold you, and it's better to use a red cloth, okay?
