"As long as Jia Aiqing says it, I believe it!"

In the Temple of Nourishing the Heart.

Categorical words rang out.

Jia Cong was stunned.

Rao is Jia Cong's past and present lives combined, with thirty or forty years of experience, and he can't help but feel hot at this moment.

Immediately bow down.

He said solemnly: "Dare to ask Your Majesty who is the handsome person for this imperial expedition?" Tens of thousands of troops to be sent again? ”

"I want to personally take command and lead an army of 100,000 to the north!"

Emperor Chengde looked at Jia Cong fixedly, and said: "Recently, Emperor Taishang has been in good health, and he intends to collect military power, and the general army of the nine sides is also holding a wait-and-see attitude, so I want to learn from Taizong Taizu and use a big victory to shock the world!" ”

Jia Cong's brows furrowed.

Listening to Emperor Chengde's meaning, I am afraid that this battle will completely rely on the soldiers of the Beijing camp.

However, with the defeat of the Marquis of Zhongjing in front, the morale of the remnants of the Beijing camp that had been collected was low, plus the 30,000 recruits who had just been recruited, it was really hard to say how much combat strength there was.

With such a motley army, can you really win against the Tatar Jurchens?

Jia Cong was suddenly a little embarrassed.

Looking at Emperor Chengde's face full of anticipation, Jia Cong secretly sighed.

To tell the truth, he said: "The army of the Beijing camp is composed of the remnants of the previous defeat and the recruits who were recruited, plus Your Majesty has no experience in leading troops, so he rashly commanded an army of 100,000 to fight, I am afraid that the chances of victory are not high......"

"And what if you're the one who gives the orders?"

Emperor Chengde said: "Previously, you commanded more than 10,000 soldiers and horses, and you were able to defeat several times the enemy, but this time if you have 100,000 soldiers, what will happen?" ”

Jia Cong interrupted Emperor Chengde's assumptions.

He said with a wry smile: "Your Majesty, the last time Taiyuan won a big victory, because most of the Tatars' attention was on attacking the city, and the minister led a large army to attack behind the back, which caught the Tatars off guard, which laid the victory."

But if I were to be asked to lead an army of 100,000 to fight the Tatars head-on, although I was confident that I would not lose, it was ......unlikely that I would win a big victory."

"Isn't there any other way?"

Emperor Chengde sighed, "Jia Aiqing is already the only one under me, but it's a pity that those people in the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies are also solid supporters of Daming Palace, so you can't let Shi Hou drag his sick body to the battlefield again......"

Suddenly.

Jia Cong glanced at the carry-on space, which had doubled in size.

My heart moved.

Since the head-to-head confrontation is a bit difficult, it is better to surprise and win!

Busy playing: "Your Majesty, the minister has a plan!" ”

Emperor Chengde's eyes lit up.

Jia Cong said: "Since Your Majesty has personally conquered this battle, you only need to sit in the rear and use the army to involve the main force of the Tatars, and the minister is willing to take 2,000 cavalry to surround the rear and attack, cut off the enemy's grain route and sweep the grassland tribes, so it will be won!" ”

"Do you want to learn from the Great Han Champion Hou of the past and use the strategy of surprise attack?"

Emperor Chengde's face was solemn, "Do you know that such a method of breaking the kettle and sinking the boat, once it is frustrated at the beginning, in the case of going deep into the enemy territory, it will inevitably end up being the end of the horse leather shroud!" ”

"Minister, have faith!"

It was just four words, but it dispelled the thousands of worries in Emperor Chengde's heart.

glanced at Jia Cong fixedly.

"Good!"

Emperor Chengde immediately laughed, "Jia Aiqing can bet on his life, what else do I have to worry about?" This time, I must let them know that there are also good generals around me who can fight well! ”

There was a pause.

looked at Jia Cong's eyes again, and promised: "If this plan can work, I will ensure that you will be ranked as a marquis within three years!" ”

……

The entrance of the Temple of Nourishing Hearts.

Emperor Chengde looked at Jia Cong's back as he gradually moved away, and subconsciously clenched his fists, "Two months later, you must not disappoint me!" ”

After all, I seem to have thought of something.

He also instructed Qiu Shi'an: "Those pastries that Jia Cong likes to eat, you can go to the imperial dining room later to get more and send them to him." ”

"Yes!"

Qiu Shi'an said with envy: "Your Majesty treats General Jia so kindly, you really envy others!" ”

Hear the words.

Emperor Chengde smiled: "He is only fourteen or fifteen years old, but he is brave and strategic, although he has only led a soldier once, but I believe that he will be extraordinary in the future."

Shouldn't this kind of talent be easy to get by? ”

"Your Majesty is wise!"

Qiu Shi'an was full of admiration.

Emperor Chengde continued: "Strictly speaking, although I am ten years older than him, if I hadn't been lucky enough to pick up the cheap and ascend the throne back then, I am afraid that I am not as good as him now. ”

Before the words fell, the north wind rose again.

On the side, Qiu Shi'an hurriedly took a few steps forward.

He said respectfully: "Your Majesty, it's windy outside, so let's go back to the palace quickly." ”

"The north wind, the chill in my heart is several times better than it."

Thinking of the vague performance of the nine-sided general soldiers, Emperor Chengde gritted his teeth and said hatefully: "If this battle is won, if I don't take off the two heads, I will be the emperor of Daqian in vain!" ”

Sen Han's killing intent seemed to make the whistling north wind a little colder.

…………

Outside the gates of the Royal Palace.

He Dong had been waiting for a long time with the horses.

Jia Cong was just about to get on his horse, when he suddenly heard Qiu Shi'an's voice coming from behind, "General Jia go slowly!" ”

"What do you have to say?"

Qiu Shi'an handed over two double-layered lacquered wood carved snack boxes, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty said that the general likes to eat pastries from the imperial dining room, and specially ordered our family to send some over."

In addition, when the general has nothing to do in the future, he will come to the palace to talk to His Majesty. ”

"Jia Cong's order!"

Jia Cong first saluted the palace.

Then he reached out and took the snack box, and said with a smile: "I am grateful for the fact that the Minister of Labor personally sent it over." ”

Qiu Shi'an smiled and waved his hand, "Hey, General Jia is dedicated to his majesty's loyalty and worries, what is the point of our family running these two steps?" ”

A couple of small talks.

Qiu Shi'an returned to the palace, and Jia Cong also led He Dong back home without mentioning it.

On the road.

Jia Cong looked at the jade that had been digested in most of the space and secretly calculated it.

More than three days have passed since I started experimenting with jade, and the volume of my own space has expanded from one cubic at the beginning to more than two cubic points now.

And the speed at which the space digests jade and expands is still progressing steadily.

At this point, Jia Cong can basically be determined.

As long as the jade is sufficient, with the digestion speed of the carry-on space, it can basically expand a cubic meter in three days, so that when the army is dispatched after the year, and then rush to Mobei with the army, the carry-on space should be able to expand to about thirty cubic meters.

Although it is not too big, if it is filled with military rations, it can also support the needs of 2,000 men and horses for several days, and then ask the cavalry under his command to bring three or five days' rations each, so that the basic capital for a blitzkrieg will be available.

At that time, it is not impossible to fight and reproduce the success of the former champion Hou!

Of course.

This is all based on an adequate supply of jade, which requires a large amount of silver......

Make up your mind.

Jia Cong immediately instructed He Dong, "When you return to the mansion, you can go to those jade merchants and buy more ordinary jade, I will be of great use." ”

"Yes!"

Although he had doubts in his heart, He Dong still answered without asking.

He has little curiosity, understands the rules, and has a strict mouth.

This is the reason why Jia Cong likes to take He Dong out......
