"The news has been implemented?" Xiong Chu was a little deflated: "Is there really no way at all?"

Miao Sanguan shook his head: "Ma Shiying, Chen Zilong, Wu Yi, Ni Manqing and other high-level figures are all dead, and Zhang Cunren is clearing the rout. Luckedhun ordered Ye Chen and Lai to shrink their forces, and it seemed that they were going to have a decisive battle with us. ”

However, Yan Erniang and Mandeli still played a vital role, and it cannot be said that the Battle of Taihu Lake was a complete failure. Weichen rushed over so late to report the good news to the emperor. ”

Xiong Chu's eyes lit up: "What good news?"

Miao Sanguan smiled rarely: "That's the case, before Yan Erniang and Mandaili led their troops to attack Zhang Cunren, they once incorporated a water division, and the leading guy was called Shen Pan, who used to be a water coward in the lower reaches of the Yangtze River, Huangpu River, and Songjiang River, known as the cross-sea dragon. ”

Wu Yi raised an army against the Qing Dynasty, because he had no appeal, and in the end only more than 30 people were willing to follow him. Forced into desperation, Wu Yi went to the meeting alone to persuade Shen Pan. Unexpectedly, the army was defeated in the first battle, and the two retreated to Taihu Lake together. ”

Yan Erniang knew that the lower reaches of the Yangtze River were covered with a dense water network and a group of lakes, and what was needed most was not cavalry, but sailors. Therefore, on behalf of the emperor, he crowned Shen Pan as the general of Pingdong, and assigned 3,000 of Wu Shengzhao's sailors to Shen Pan. ”

"I just received the news that after Ma Shiying decided to go east, Shen Pan did not continue to obey Ma Shiying's dispatch because he was the general of Pingdong of the Ming Kingdom, but immediately reported the situation to the defenders of Huangmei County. ”

"Hao Shaoqi, the general who stayed in Huangmei County to lead the 6,000 infantry army, was his deputy general Kuaitong. After receiving Shen Pan's urgent letter, Kuaitong didn't dare to make decisions on his own, so he asked Hao Shaoqi from Qizhou, Yan Erniang from Babaozhou, and me for instructions. ”

If it weren't for the letter sent by Kuaitong, Weichen wouldn't have known that Ma Shiying and the others had decided to kill themselves. Since the Tao is different and does not conspire with each other, there is no point in us continuing to waste our troops on the front line of Taihu Lake. ”

In view of this, Weichen immediately ordered Shen Pan to burn all the warships and baggage, and then led more than 4,600 sailors to the south. Taking advantage of Ye Chen and A Lai encircling and suppressing Ma Shiying and others, they immediately rushed to Babaozhou to report to Yan Erniang. ”

"Now, Yan Erniang and Mandali already have two troops around them: Wu Bicheng, the general of Jingnan, with more than 2,600 cavalry, and Shen Pan, the general of Pingdong, with more than 4,600 sailor brothers. ”

Xiong Chu nodded: "This is indeed good news. Immediately issued a decree to officially confirm the titles of Wu Bicheng and Shen Pan's generals. This is equivalent to telling everyone that as long as it is a verbal reward from Yan Erniang and Mandeli, the court will admit it. In this way, it is equivalent to determining the supremacy of the two of them on the Eight Treasure Continent, so as to smooth out the command system. ”

"Emperor Shengming!" Miao Sanguan also smiled, and then shook his head again: "There are already more than seven thousand people on the Eight Treasure Continent, which is enough in terms of numbers alone. However, those people did not have strict training, and they lacked sufficient equipment, especially Shen Pan's sailors did not have warships and could not form combat effectiveness. ”

Xiong Chu already understood what Miao Sanguan wanted to do, so he scolded with a smile: "You finish your words in one breath, don't mutter like a resentful woman." ”

Miao Sanguan clenched his fists and said: "Weichen has already ordered, Jiang Tengjiao immediately dispatched three main warships, twenty heavy warships, and forty small warships down the east of the river and rushed to Xiaogushan Port in the upper reaches of Babaozhou. These more than 60 warships were handed over to Shen Pan's headquarters on the spot, so they were not equipped with sailors, but loaded with weapons and grain and grass. ”

At the same time, Weichen also ordered Wu Bicheng's troops to immediately cross the Yangtze River south into the Madaoji Fort and take over the forty-eight Hongyi cannons sent by Zhou Chang. In the future, Wu Bicheng's troops were stationed at the Madaoji Fort, and formed a corner with the Shen Pan Naval Division above Babaozhou to completely cut off the Yangtze River channel. ”

Xiong Chu didn't speak for a long time after listening to this, because these questions were all within Miao Sanguan's business, and there was no need to run in front of him in the middle of the night.

"Old Master, I don't think you mean this. Xiong Chu looked up at Miao Sanguan: "What do you want to do?"

Miao Sanguan stood up and said, "Take advantage of the chaos to raid Anqing City!"

Xiong Chuxin said: Sure enough.

"What is the tactical purpose?"

Xiong Chu knew that Miao Sanguan would not do useless work, and since he decided to take this risky move, he must have a deep intention.

Miao Sanguan said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, the rescue of Ma Shiying's department has completely failed, and we have lost tens of thousands of brothers in vain, which is all my fault. Now it is difficult to break through the city of Qizhou in a hurry, and our troops cannot be withdrawn. Under the attack of Tong Tulai, Liu Zhiyuan, and Jin Li, Zhang Chengzong and Hao Shaoqi became more and more dangerous. ”

"If Lekedehun is allowed to free up his hands, Ye Chen's Manchu Qing Red Banner and Alai's Mongolian Zhenghuang Banner will attack from the east, and Hao Shaoqi and Zhang Chengzong's troops may suffer even greater losses. The only way is to strike at the enemy's flank, so that Luck Dehun does not dare to use his forces excessively, and create a chance for our retreat. ”

"However, Shen Pan's water division has just been reorganized, and we have not yet formed a strong sense of belonging to our Xiong family. If there is no effective general command, it is likely to fall short. Therefore, Weichen dared to ask the emperor to let Concubine Yan Erniang and Concubine Li Mandaili personally lead troops to raid Anqing City!"

Xiong Chu was shocked when he heard this: it turned out that he wanted his two women to go deep behind enemy lines, which was really a dangerous move, and he was extremely bold.

The raid on Anqing City was completely different from the previous chaos near Taihu Lake, because Anqing City was now the camp of the Chinese army in Luckdehun.

Even if you don't consider the return of the two main forces of Ye Chen and Alai, there are 15,000 people directly under Luckdehun alone. It was one of the most elite troops of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, known as invincible in the world.

Although there are more than 4,600 sailors in Shen Pan's department, they are all rabble without strict training, and they have just taken over the new warship, whether it can come in handy is still in the middle of the two.

If Shen Pan's naval army can't even control the cannon at that time, then it will not be a sneak attack on the enemy, but a way to send himself to the tiger's mouth.

Xiong Chu leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes in contemplation, Miao Sanguan didn't dare to continue talking, he opened his mouth several times, but he just didn't speak.

For a full quarter of an hour, Xiong Chu closed his eyes and did not speak.

Xiong Chu knew that Zhang Chengzong, Hao Shaoqi, and Chige's subordinates were all elite divisions in the Xiong family's army, and they belonged to the army armed to the teeth. If you want to withdraw them safely to Jiangnan, it will definitely not work without paying a certain price.

What is the price to pay? This is the reason why Xiong Chu pondered deeply.

If you can, you can't, and you can't, and you can't use it. Surprise and attack unprepared.

This is the basic principle of using troops in the "Art of War", and of course Xiong Chu knows it.

Now that the eyebrows have been burned, they can only do the opposite.

"Old master, you know Yan Erniang and Mandeli's temperament well. Prince Xiong finally opened his eyes: "At the critical juncture of Zhang Chengzong, Hao Shaoqi, and Chige's subordinates, these two mothers-in-law are two dominatrixes, and they are definitely not good friends." ”

"Yan Erniang is bold, Mandeli doesn't know the depths, once she makes a big mess, she can't clean it up. Therefore, you must emphasize again and again in the order, let them go down the river with great fanfare, as long as they cause coercion on Anqing City, and do not necessarily force Anqing City. ”

Unexpectedly, Miao Sanguan shook his head: "Your Majesty, you may not know much about this Luck Dehun." Although he is young, he definitely belongs to the generation of tenacity. Our main force was attracted to the city of Qizhou, and of course Luck Dehun would not give up lightly. If the attack on Anqing City is a bluff, it will definitely not achieve the desired goal. ”

"Do you mean to really fight?" the bear prince finally became worried.

Miao Sanguan nodded: "It must be a real attack." In order to convince Luckedhun that we are a blow that has broken the cauldron, we must fight fiercely and hard, and completely hurt Luckedhun. If it's just a bluff, there is no need for Concubine Yan Erniang and Concubine Li's Mandeli to command it personally. ”

Hearing Miao Sanguan say more and more, Xiong Chu was a little suspicious: "It's just Shen Pan's more than 4,000 sailor soldiers, how can they give Anqing City a fatal blow?"

"The emperor doesn't know. Miao Sanguan took out a map and said: "Anqing City was built in Yangchazhou, which is close to the Yangtze River, easy to defend and difficult to attack. If you can't use infantry and cavalry, at least it won't have an effect for a short time. But the naval warships were different, they could go straight to the city for artillery bombardment. ”

"Wechen has calculated that if our three main warships and twenty heavy warships are dispatched at the same time, according to the power of the new five-inch caliber Hongyi cannon we are equipped, it will be enough to collapse the city wall. At that time, Luckedhun would not be able to hold Anqing City at all, and he would not be able to do so without sending troops and reinforcements. ”

"Even if he doesn't send troops and reinforcements, at least he won't dare to send Ye Chen and Alai far away. As long as the most elite Manchu cavalry and Mongol cavalry are pinned, the county seat of Huangmei will always be in our hands, and the ferry crossing of the Yangtze River to the south will not be lost, and our goal will be achieved. ”

Prince Xiong was still a little hesitant: "Anqing City is the west gate of Nanjing, if we risk our lives to attack it, will Duoduo in Nanjing City sit idly by? If Duoduo thinks that our combat goal is to attack Nanjing, and then send a large army to help, even if Zhang Chengzong, Hao Shaoqi, and Chige are withdrawn, how can we let Yan Erniang and them get rid of the enemy?"

Xiong Chu's worries are not wrong, attacking Anqing City is the first step in attacking Nanjing City, and it can be regarded as a peripheral battle to attack Nanjing City.

Would Duoduo watch Anqing City be violently attacked?

Although Miao Sanguan did not have Shang Fang's sword in his hand, he held the blade of the Xiong family's military order, the Dragon Scale Purple Gold Knife.

Others had to send arrows on the strings, but Miao Sanguan only came to speak after shooting the arrows.

Patiently and meticulously explaining to the bear prince is a waste of time.

Between every breath on the battlefield of Qizhou City, there were countless soldiers flying flesh and blood, and Miao Sanguan didn't have time to waste his tongue now.

Because of this, Miao Sanguan came to Xiong Chu's place late at night because he had issued all the combat orders.

Xiong Chu hesitated here, Yan Erniang and Mandeli had already led Shen Pan's sailor fleet to set off.

After attacking Anqing City and striking at the enemy's flank, it is simply an unbelievable tactical move to raid the enemy's pivot at night.

Since Xiong Chu's debut, he has no choice but to live and die, and he has always paid attention to steady and steady fighting, and he will not fight against the water.

Yan Erniang and Mandali have followed Xiong Chu for many years, and suddenly received an urgent order from Miao Sanguan Tongguò Ma Daoji Fort, even if they didn't know the whole picture of the battle situation, they also knew that they were forced to make a helpless choice now.

It has only been two days since the new warship was accepted, and the brand-new artillery has not yet been completed, and the joy of Shen Pan, the general of Pingdong, has not yet passed, and the battle order has already been issued.

"General Shen, Concubine Li and I are on your flagship. Yan Erniang did not carry out any combat mobilization, but used her own actions to tell the soldiers of the water division: "You have to live together, you have to die together." Eat now now, pull anchor at sunset, and the first shot must be fired tomorrow morning!"
