"Li Shifang is temporarily entrenched in the Jeonju area. This is the largest coastal plain in Jeolla Province, and the grain production is sufficient. Judging by his appearance, he intends to continue to defend it."

Although the Fifth Division is still in Shandong, North Korea has sufficient intelligence.Even if you haven't set off yet, you have already grasped the enemy's situation.

Yi Guozheng, the deputy division commander, was puzzled.

"What's the reason why Li Shifang didn't take the opportunity to break through to the north, join forces with the allied forces of the Qing Dynasty, and defend Jeolla Province alone?"

There is no way for those present to answer this question.

Hui Shanhui speculated: "I'm afraid there is something wrong with the coalition forces of the Qing Dynasty. Li Shifang is unwilling to be manipulated by the Qing army, and has the heart of self-reliance."

Lou Fu sneered when he heard this.

"Without the support of the Qing army, what can he do with the broken army in his hands?"

"Do you think it is possible for Li Shifang to surrender?"

Zha Shubing's question made everyone think deeply.

In any case, what Li Shifang did did not conform to common sense.

As long as you have a little military common sense, you know that Jeolla Province cannot be defended without the support of the Qing army.

However, Li Shifang has been stranded in Quanzhou, and he is still recruiting troops wantonly, and has no plans to go north at all.

If he wanted to run now, it would be very easy.

After all, there was a huge gap between Xia Jun's southern and northern fronts, so he could take the route of Daejeon and Wenqing and join up with the Qing coalition forces smoothly.

"Even if Li Shifang intends to surrender, I'm afraid he will ask for a lot of money. When we put the gun on his head, we can talk about it."

Lou Fu is determined and knows that it is unnecessary to talk too much now.

As long as Xia's army progresses smoothly, Li Shifang will understand how to choose under the pressure.

At that time, even if he does not surrender, he will only die without a place to bury him.

"Since Li Shifang doesn't intend to escape, our strategy needs to be rounded."

Lou Fu began to deploy.

"The [-]th regiment landed at Mokpo, and then rushed to Gwangju. After taking Gwangju, don't march for a while, so as not to over-stimulate Li Shifang."

Liao Fengzhi, head of the [-]th regiment, and Jiao Wenzhi, political commissar, received the order.

"The [-]th, [-]th, and [-]th Regiments landed in Pyeongtaek. The [-]th Regiment must take Asan and Cheonan and block the passage to the north."

Ma Shihua, head of the [-]th regiment, and Jiang Xiuyuan, political commissar, expressed their understanding.

"The [-]th Regiment and the [-]th Regiment, you have the most difficult task. You must rush for a long-distance attack before Li Shifang reacts. The [-]th Regiment seized Datian and blocked all the eastward roads in this area. We can't let Li Shifang pass by."

Hou Chengzu, the head of the [-]th Regiment, and Fang Weihan, the political commissar, did not feel that this task was so difficult. On the contrary, they were very pleased that they had a heavy responsibility on their shoulders.

Hou Chengzu, the original family of Jinshanwei military generals, has grown rapidly after being baptized in the military academy.This time on the battlefield for the first time, I secretly made up my mind to perform well.

"The [-]th Regiment has the longest attack distance, and must completely occupy Jinshan and Zhen'an. As long as you move well, Li Shifang will not be able to escape."

Although there are still roads leading to the east in the south of Jinshan and Zhen'an, Li Shifang will never go there.

Because if you walk over there, you will enter the sphere of influence of the Fourth Division, and it is still a dead end.

Wu Zhikui, the head of the [-]th Regiment, and Chu Huacheng, the political commissar, did not complain, and were already lying on the map to study the marching plan.

Like Hou Chengzu, Wu Zhikui, an old soldier, has also changed very quickly, and has already fallen in love with this place.

Lou Fu set up a north-south pincer strategy, intending to take advantage of Li Shifang's negligence to completely annihilate him.

In this era, there were no telegrams or telephones, and it was impossible for the fifth division's combat plan to be reported to the Eastern Finger and implemented after approval.

In that case, ten days and a half months have passed.

You can only report and act at the same time.

The fifth division set off from Yizhou. After three days of rapid march, the twentieth regiment arrived at Qingdao first, and boarded a ship directly to North Korea that day.

The situation on the Korean battlefield eased down for a while.

Whether it is the Allied Forces of the Xia Dynasty or the Allied Forces of the Qing Dynasty, most of the tactical actions they do are marching.

In fact, in many wars throughout the ages, marching has occupied most of the time.

Often times, marching can determine the outcome of a war.

After all, if you walk well and fast, you will be able to reach strategic points earlier than the enemy, thereby gaining an advantage.

This is why the march of the Huangwei Corps in the movie "Three Great Battles" is so shocking.

Of course, the real Huang Wei Corps couldn't go like that, he didn't have that ability.

If the Huangwei Corps could really go like that, it would be impossible to lose so badly.

A ship sailed into Incheon Port alone, in stark contrast to the busy scene here.

As the ship docked, Shen Yan came out first, looking around vigilantly.After realizing that everything was as usual, he brought out the people inside.

It was a pale young man. Although he was wearing luxurious clothes, his hands and feet were always restless.

"Didn't you say go to Hanyang? Why did you disembark here?"

Shen Yan asked the guards he brought to protect the young man.

"Now the entire waterway is busy transporting the army's supplies, and the rest of the ships are not allowed to pass. But this place is not far from Hanyang, Majesty, please work hard. When you arrive in Hanyang, the general situation is set, and a little bit of hard work is nothing."

The young man's expression was somewhat indignant.

"I'm the one who wants to be king, why should I give way to others?"

These words made Shen Yan's face turn cold.

"The false king Li Ji betrayed the country and sat back and watched the people fall into misery before he was overthrown. The majesty is about to become the lord of the country, so he should understand the lessons learned from the past, and must not be domineering."

The young man is Li Ji, Lord Haiping.

The great changes in North Korea had nothing to do with a distant clan like him.

But under the recommendation of Shen Qiyuan, he became a candidate for the monarch, and his life changed drastically.

Shen Yan rushed to Jeju Island, explained his intentions to him, and dressed him up carefully.

Li Ji is dizzy until now, and he never imagined that he could become the king of the country.

But in any case, he had had enough of poverty.Once he becomes the king, he is the master of the country, and he no longer has to endure poverty.

On the way here, he has been fantasizing non-stop.

After becoming a king, how many beauties should be admitted into the harem?

What should I eat at every meal?
From the scattered dust to the cloud nine, he couldn't help but feel dizzy.In the end, he was taught a lesson by Shen Yan, and only then did he realize that he hadn't grasped the throne yet.

Shen Yan took Li Ji ashore, stuffed him into the sedan chair, and escorted him carefully all the way to Hanyang.

In order to deceive others, Shen Yan didn't dare to take the big road at all, and could only cross mountains and ridges.

It is true that remote places are not easy to be found, but if something happens, it will not be reported.

The team was walking in a hurry, when suddenly the wind howled, and then a feathered arrow was nailed to Li Ji's sedan chair.

"There are assassins!"

Shen Yan's hair stood on end, and he quickly drew out his knife to protect it in front of the sedan chair.

At the same time, his heart was overwhelmed.

Who actually leaked the news?
Or has someone been monitoring his whereabouts?

The enemy chose to attack in such a secluded place, obviously planning for a long time.

He couldn't help worrying about the future.
