Chapter Twenty-Seven: He Xi's Responsibility

"Now the situation is in order. I propose to withdraw troops. Fu Youde pondered for a while and said; Now the enemy situation is unknown, and the geography is unknown. Internal and external troubles. If a flaw is exposed, it can be a big problem. And this time, the purpose of the plug has been achieved. It is good to fall into the bag for safety, not to add snakes. ”

Feng Sheng was silent.

Fu Youde is actually right, this situation. The situation is not in my favor. Why do you have to be here, to fight with Takarim.

The most important thing as a famous general is to know how to advance and retreat. First is invincible, and the enemy can be defeated. In today's situation, if there is no burden of hundreds of thousands of captives, it can be fought no matter what. But the situation is not different, and there are too many factors that are uncontrollable.

Anyway, Ming is strong and weak, and Daming is not in a hurry.

If you don't fight today, you just need to find a chance tomorrow.

Not in a hurry.

But Fu Youde is the deputy marshal. Not the manager.

The responsibility of the deputy marshal is relatively small, and Fu Youde can completely consider military matters without thinking too much. But Feng Sheng can't do that. He couldn't help but think about it.

In fact, this time Lan Yu took the lead and swallowed the biggest credit, and many people in the army were already dissatisfied. Chang Mao is certainly a fool. But Chang Mao's performance is just some undercurrents among the generals.

It's just a matter of putting things on the table that can't be put on the table.

Feng Sheng also has to take care of the people below, everyone has been preparing for so many days, in order to make contributions to the Northern Expedition and seal his wife and son. You let Lanyu take it all. Is that how you're the boss?

Feng Sheng's prestige and seniority are high, and he can suppress these opinions. But now, another enemy has emerged. Don't you let them fight. really saw the enemy and retreated, so that these generals who wanted to make contributions went back empty-handed. What Feng Sheng said in the future may not be effective.

It's not that Fu Youde doesn't understand the truth, but he can push it off and go to Song Guogong. And Feng Sheng couldn't.

Feng Sheng didn't speak, Lan Yu snorted coldly and didn't speak.

Fu Youde said: "Yongchang Hou, what do you think? ”

Lan Yu said, "Takami doesn't. I just think that in the past twenty years, the imperial army has not retreated from the enemy. ”

Lan Yu wasn't actually without ideas, but he knew that no matter what he thought, this battle had nothing to do with him. It doesn't matter at all. He has already won the first prize of this battle. If the connected fighters are still grabbed, they will offend too many people.

I don't know how many tricks will be used against him in the future.

Lan Yu is a little arrogant, and he is not stupid.

He's telling the truth, too. In the past few decades, Daming has won many victories against the remnant yuan, and everyone has raised their hearts. Now I don't know how many enemies there are, I don't know where they are. It is not even known who the enemy is. It's all a guess. Just knowing that the enemy is coming, retreat.

It's also too demoralizing.

Fu Youde sneered and said; "Do you think the old man is timid? Master He has already said it just now. The grain road was attacked. What does this mean, don't you know? The army of nearly a million people, plus so many livestock, has to eat every day, it is a mountain. It is full of deep mountains and old forests. How can we catch the causeless Timur hiding? But what will happen when our food channel is cut off? There is no better way to count poison than to run out of food. Don't you know? ”

"In addition, even if the grain road is continuous, how much grain is there in Liaodong. Can it support such a large consumption? ”

"Withdrawal is the wisest option."

Lan Yu could only snort coldly, he had to admit that what Fu Youde said was right.

The situation on the battlefield was not in his favor. And can't catch the traces of the opponent. I can't afford to spend time.

"Alright." Feng Sheng said: "The withdrawal of troops is to withdraw troops. But it's not just the withdrawal. Otherwise, it really makes the Tartars think that I am afraid of them. He Xi. ”

He Xi said: "The lower official is here." ”

Feng Sheng said: "When I was about to retreat, I would first hurt the tartars, and then it would not be too late to retreat. And the key to this battle is yours. ”

He Xi said: "In me? ”

Feng Sheng said; "You have to keep the food routes open and supply the front line with as much food and grass as possible. Give me more wiggle room. This is one of them. Second, you are going to find out how to get rid of Timur? ”

He Xi said: "Guogong, the lower officials are also willing to serve the imperial court. But I really don't know how to find him. ”

Feng Sheng said: "Don't worry, he will go to you." ”

He Xi said; "Looking for me?"

Feng Sheng said: "Yes, sometimes don't just think about your own problems, but also think about other people's problems. Why is it that Timur is hovering here. However, how many people he brought with him were the only elites of the Yuan Court. Naha's exit is irretrievable. What was he thinking? ”

Lan Yu pondered for a moment and said; "The best response for us is what he wants us to do."

Feng Sheng said: "Yes, retreat, he is worried that the imperial court will set up a city here to defend it." ”

He Xi's heart suddenly moved, he didn't know anything else, but the name of Yuerhu still knew. He glanced at the map that had been hanging on the tent, and suddenly saw that, in absolute terms, their current location was still far from the fishing lake. But in terms of relative distance, it's not that far. It's even within the range of the Ming cavalry.

After this big battle, He Xi knew that the kind of cavalry jumped thousands of miles. Either they don't understand anything, or they are in danger, gambling with the lives of the army, and either they win or lose. But the cavalry brought dry rations and attacked hundreds of miles at a time. Indeed, there is no problem.

Fishing is already quite close to this distance.

And He Xi also knew that Lan Yu was catching up here. In other words, the original Yuan Court was not here.

Thinking about this, He Xi suddenly became enlightened. It turned out that they had stepped on the threshold of the Yuan Court. This is because Timur clearly knew that he had few soldiers and weak strength, and he had to deal with it here. Because behind him is the remnant Yuan court.

Feng Sheng said: "Although I don't know, why is he worried about this. But what the enemy fears, is what we have to do. He Xi, it is not appropriate to leave this thing to others, only you are the most suitable. ”

He Xi said; "Xia Guan understands." He paused slightly, and said: "When Xia Guan heard Guogong say this, he suddenly had a speculation. That is, where is the Yuan Court now? ”

As soon as these words came out, Feng Sheng, Fu Youde, and Lan Yu all lit up, and their eyes were fixed on the map.

For a long time, Feng Sheng suddenly let out a sigh of relief and said, "If it's too much, how can it be any more?" ”

In today's situation, in fact, Fu Youde's plan is the most reasonable. After all, the Great Army has already won. Didn't think about establishing a rule here either. It's not that Daming doesn't want to, but the capital of Liaodong is vast and sparsely populated, and this is even more so here. The Mongol tribes who let Naha go out are here, no one is at ease, if they are not let here, where will the people be migrated from?

No one. It's like nothing.

Don't do what the enemy wants you to do. This is certainly wrong. However, the original strategy should not be changed because of the enemy's approach. Otherwise, where did some tacit battles on the battlefield come from?

No matter how correct Feng Sheng's analysis is, he can't hide the fact that he wants to attack Timur and win a battle. That's more selfish than public. Although he also speculated that the Yuan Court was around here.

After all, the Ming intelligence knew that the Yuan court was in Eastern Mongolia, but Eastern Mongolia was too big, not to mention, and now the Yuan court has returned to a nomadic state, and he is mobile. Therefore, now the Yuan Court is not far from here. But the army is no longer capable, and it will be another run.

Even though, Feng Sheng knew that if he could bring the Yuan Court to the end, it would be a contribution to the destruction of the country.

He could only sigh slightly, and said, "He Xi, I didn't say this sentence to you, go and do something." ”

He Xi agreed and went down. However, what He Xi said, how can it be regarded as not being said, Feng Sheng, Lan Yu, and Fu Youde are all people with hearts. Without He Xi knowing the situation, there have been countless nights of uncollected, Jinyiwei, and other spies from all walks of life, rushing around the grassland, looking for traces of the existence of the Yuan Court in the encircled area.

The next big war is already brewing in advance.
