Chapter 697 The Daily Life of the Northern Trio ([-])

After slapping the table and getting angry, Master Zhang finally stopped the blind and belligerent tendencies of a group of military leaders.

Again, the traveler does not need to rely on "foreign vassals" to conquer the country.For high-level people like Zhang Zhongqi, what he cares about is how to bring "foreign vassals" into the system and abide by the internal system so that they can be further transformed and absorbed in the future.

In the end, the briefing meeting inevitably evolved into a disciplinary work meeting.After Mr. Zhang focused on spraying out the shortcomings of the army leaders' "ignorance of the overall situation", he had no idea of ​​​​discussing strategy at all, so he ordered the meeting to adjourn.

On the second day, all the people from all walks of life who had been refurbished uniformly put on a brand-new full set of new military uniforms. They were full of energy and majestic, and sat neatly on both sides of the long table again, posing as a regular military meeting.

This time, Master Zhang stopped talking nonsense and signaled to the adjutant at the beginning to continue yesterday's briefing on the battle situation.

Without being disturbed by anyone, the adjutant pointed to the large map and spent half an hour describing the overall strategy of the North, and by the way, the General Staff's intelligence and deduction about the war situation in the North were also confided.

After the lengthy briefing was over, Master Zhang, who was sitting alone in the top position, looked around and found that the army leaders were not impatient, but rather energetic, and seemed to be looking forward to the next breakdown.

Zhang Zhongqi has seen this kind of attitude in many Ming military officers who have worked with him, so he is not surprised.

You must know that in the seventeenth century, most of the information obtained by the frontier town army was just a few words, and there were many false judgments in it.The "data-based" notifications such as Feihuying, which includes the overall strategic situation in the north, contain so much information that it is simply out of reach of ordinary people.Not to mention the generals, the emperor's first assistant did not have access to such a wealth of information.

It is equivalent to taking a very nutritious university class, and the leaders of the peripheral army are naturally extremely satisfied.

Next, Master Zhang, who was in charge of leading the military discussion, waved his hand: "Let's talk about it and brainstorm. Let's follow the routine of 'sniping', 'persuading to return' and 'sluggish' to see how to block Huang Taiji's army back."

Unexpectedly by Mr. Zhang, there was a moment of silence in the following scene.

In fact, the military leaders have also participated in various military meetings of the Feihu Camp many times before, and they know that they can speak freely when the traverser presides over the military meetings, and they will not sin because of their words.

"Why, just talk if you have something to say?"

Finding that the reason for the silence was that the people on both sides of the long table were winking in the air, Zhang Zhongqi was surprised: "What kind of plane?"

The military leaders didn't know what the plane was, but Master Zhang's meaning was still very clear.After the quick exchange, Geng Zhongming, who was still the oldest and short and chubby, stepped forward.

With a smile on his face, Geng Zhongming cupped his hands expectantly and asked, "This...brothers, there is still one thing that is unclear, so it is a little difficult to decide on a strategy. I hope the Lord General will speak clearly."

Zhang Zhongqi became more and more curious now: "What did you not tell you? Tell me quickly."

The next moment, Geng Zhongming straightened his face, stared at Master Zhang's face, and asked solemnly: "The general situation is about the advance and retreat of the captives, but the commander intends to support the bandits?"

"I go."

Zhang Zhongqi covered her face with a slap, raised her head, and closed her eyes: "I still didn't make it clear yesterday!"

Standing up slowly, Master Zhang leaned his hands on the table, and with a mentally handicapped expression, he asked fiercely: "The man who is about to be called emperor by Huang Taiji has an army of Mongolia under his command. Is this a bandit? How to raise it? Learn now." Li Chengliang? Is it too late?"

Hearing what Zhang Zhongqi said, the army leaders were relieved.After yesterday's discussion, in fact, the Dongjiang generals had private exchanges at night.However, due to the lack of understanding of the local situation in the Great Yan Kingdom, they did not particularly understand the current strategy: it is obviously a good opportunity to attack Jianlu, why should they back down?
At this time, the military leaders were afraid.They were afraid that the thighs they had finally relied on would be cowardly, and they began to shirk, and they became troublesome.Just like Li Chengliang and Guan Ningjun before, they were finally bitten off by a tiger.

Zhang Zhongqi, who had dealt with them for the past few years, heard the worries of the military leaders immediately.

Realizing that these warlords are separated by a layer after all, and cannot agree with each other like their own soldiers and horses, Zhang Zhongqi sighed inwardly, and finally explained patiently: "Jianlu is a big trouble for the Ming court; For me, it is not only a trouble, but also a mortal enemy."

"However, for my commander-in-chief, Jianlu is not a trouble." After a pause, Zhang Zhongqi looked around and said steadily: "Jianlu is a meritorious deed, that's all."

"This achievement will be the help of my family's commander-in-chief in the future when he will compete for China's Zhengshuo."

"This kind of achievement, if you don't move it, it's enough. If you move it, you have to take it completely. If you complete all your achievements in one battle, you will tell the world."

"We're not strong enough this time. Even if we break up Jianlu, we won't be able to smash Huanglong. So, don't think about it. Right now, the south can't make a move, so Rong Jianlu will continue to hop around for a few more days."

When Zhang Zhongqi said this, his face darkened: "This is the last time I will explain the strategy to you. If anyone is still planning on Xiao Jiujiu, get out now, and I will lead my troops to shovel him personally!"

Hearing this, everyone in Dongjiang changed countenance and bowed out of their seats: "The general is convicted, please forgive me!"

"Hmph. I just suffered from my short-sightedness."

Although the generals were persuaded to be soft, Master Zhang was not so easy to talk to.He stretched out his hand and pointed casually, and drew out one: "Li Jiuzheng, it's up to you. This time, I will give you a special holiday. You can take your precious son and go to the Ministry of Army for further studies. Everyone else is queuing up and taking turns to go later. "

Letting a warlord leave his soldiers and horses to go out for a long time is a test for the person in charge of the situation.

Now it seems that the situation is still tightly controlled by Mr. Zhang. The next moment, Li Jiuzheng looked calm, cupped his fists and saluted, as if he had expected this day long ago: "Dare not to follow orders. Finally, I will thank the general on behalf of the dog." The master cultivates."

————————————————————————

The twists and turns of the meeting finally continued.

Next, is the substantive tactical discussion.At this time, all participants first moved to the sand table room.

In this hall, there are realistic 3D sand tables in Hebei, Yanshan, Northeast and other places.

Relying on the sand table made in the [-]th century based on the Beidou navigation chart of later generations, although some places are different from the specific landform, this is Zentraedi technology, enough to be used in any battle in the [-]th century.

And once it enters the substantive research stage, the progress is actually very fast.After all, soldiers in this era do not have the option of three-dimensional warfare such as sea, land, air, electronic warfare, missile warfare, and nuclear warfare. Most wars are still face-to-face, head-to-head hand-to-hand combat.

Now that the opponent's strategic purpose, approximate military strength, and marching goals are known, it is easy to deduce that Houjin's strategic direction should be called Qingbing this time by referring to the process of Houjin's first entry into the customs a few years ago and the people present at the meeting.

Knowing the general strategic direction of the enemy, one can deduce the route of the enemy's heavy advance, and even the weak links of the enemy's logistics and auxiliary troops that may be attacked by one's own side.

After the deduction of this step by the participants, the large sand table in the Yanshan area was densely filled with small flags of various colors.And everyone already has the most intuitive cognition and understanding of the war that will inevitably happen in the future.

At this time, it was already the second night of the official meeting.

On the third day, discuss countermeasures.

Since the scale of the battle had been repeatedly emphasized in advance, in fact, the Northern Army Group, with Zhang Zhongqi's three divisions and three thousand cavalry as its core combat force, did not have many means to deal with this battle.

At least, the amphibious landing on Huludao closed the door to beat the dogs, the artillery flattened the infantry to occupy, the cavalry division drones accompanied by no rear combat and went straight to Shengjing, etc. Such high-level local-foreign tactics cannot be used.

Then what is left can only be the most simple and unpretentious chopping board tactics.

No matter under any circumstances, the crossing crowd cannot allow a large-scale army to break into the North China Plain to plunder.

Under the guidance of this strategic thinking, Zhang Zhongqi and his army must deal a deep blow to the opponent shortly after the Qing soldiers entered the pass, forcing them to shrink their troops or even retreat.

In this way, the strategy is actually ready to come out: use the Li Jichun Department of Yongping Chunlei Camp as the chopping block, use the rest of the troops as hammers, look for opportunities to fight, and snipe the Qing soldiers on the front line of Yongping.

In this era, Yongping Mansion, where Li Jichun's department was located, under its jurisdiction the entire territory of Qinhuangdao, and even the Tangshan area in Hebei, were all under the jurisdiction of Yongping Mansion.

The core camp of Li Jichun's troops is located in Qian'an, south of Shanhaiguan and east of Ji Town.

Considering that the previous Qing soldiers entered the customs, the Guanning Army entrenched on the front line of Shanhaiguan was useless, so Li Jichun's troops were actually on the front line of the anti-Qing.As long as Li Jichun's tribe is not destroyed, then most of the Qing soldiers will not be able to penetrate into the Hebei Plain, let alone the capital city, or even the areas south of the capital city.

This strategy is exactly the reason why Li Jichun secretly supported Li Jichun's tribe after traveling through the crowd to measure the map after the King Qin incident.

Today, flowers bloom and bear fruit.

It was already the evening of the third day.When all the discussions were over, Zhang Zhongqi still lowered the small flag in his hand, and asked Li Jichun with a smile: "Old Li, how are you doing? Are you under any pressure?"

Under the eyes of all the participants with different expressions, Li Jichun, a middle-aged man who is usually taciturn and unremarkable, still has a calm expression at this moment.

However, his words were not very calm: "Every sword and soldier in the Chunlei Camp is thanks to the commander, and Li Jichun's remaining life is also thanks to the commander. Please rest assured, as long as the order comes, Li Jichun will only die. "

"Hehe, it's not impossible. We not only need to destroy the enemy, but also preserve ourselves. The new country is waiting for us to build in the future."

As Zhang Zhongqi's words fell, the armed forces deployed by the Great Yan Kingdom in the north began to increase their combat readiness level at this moment, and were ready to meet the challenges that would appear at any time.
