The next morning, as soon as Guan'er opened her eyes, she saw Lin Yuan put some breakfast in front of her, and she burst into tears, sobbing, "My lord, Guan'er is just a slave, why do you want to eat breakfast?" Treating the servants so well?"

Lin Yuan smiled and said, "Guan'er, you are not my slave, we are the same."

Guan'er stared at her big beautiful eyes, and asked at a loss: "But, Lafayette said, the slave family is yours?"

Lin Yuan smiled "hehe", and then said, "What Lafayette said may not be correct."

Looking at Guan'er who looked panic-stricken, Lin Yuan said again: "I'm leaving, you should have a good rest."

Guan'er suddenly said: "My lord, I..." After finishing speaking, I stopped talking.

Lin Yuan looked at her and asked, "Why didn't you say anything?"

Guan'er thought for a long time before summoning up her courage and saying stammeringly: "I was sent by Lafayette to watch over your lord." After finishing speaking, she lowered her head and stopped talking, as if she had done something so unreasonable. same thing.

Lin Yuan laughed "puchi" and said, "It's just for such a small matter, it's okay, you can tell Lafayette in the future that I will be loyal to Qing Dynasty."

After speaking, he turned around and came out to the barracks to discuss sending troops.

Lin Yuan didn't want them to wait for him anymore, so he brought Fade Chen to the conference room early. There was a unified map of the Qing Dynasty hanging on the conference room, which was completely different from the one he was used to. The map of this era was still There is no four-color fill, and the entire picture is of one color.

Lin Yuan silently flipped through the information in his hand. This information was about the situation of the defenders in Beijing and its surrounding areas: Liu Kunyi, the Hunan Army led by Wu Dacheng, has a total of 1 battalions, about 8000 people, stationed in Shanhaiguan to the front line of Jinzhou; the Yizi Army led by Song Qing, with about 5000 people, stationed in Dagu, Tianjin, and Beijing; the Guizi Army led by Jiang Guiti, with about [-] people, stationed at Xifengkou, Gubeikou, Juyongguan line.

In addition, there are also training troops who were originally stationed in the Northeast. After escaping from the Northeast, they have been stationed in the capital.

After Lin Yuan saw the deployment of the Qing army, he thought to himself: "The deployment of the Qing army is very appropriate. Beijing is located on the North China Plain, with mountains on its back and the sea on its back, Taihang Mountain in the west, Yanshan Mountain in the north, and Bohai Sea in the east. There are three directions to attack Beijing. First: bypass Shanhaiguan Pass and attack from Xifengkou and Gubeikou. In the history that Lin Yuan knows, the Japanese army invaded North China in 1933, and they took this route; second: The attack on Shanhai Pass, through the Liaoxi Corridor from the northeast directly into North China, a series of battles in the Manchu and Ming Dynasty, is the route taken; the third: attack from the sea, attack Dagukou, from Tianjin all the way to the city of Beijing, Lin Yuan It is from this route that we know that the Eight-Power Allied Forces occupied Beijing."

Therefore, the Qing court still attached great importance to Beijing's defense. If these three lines are well protected, Beijing can sit back and relax.

After a while, Liu Kunyi, Wu Dacheng, Song Qing and Jiang Guiti all arrived. Lin Yuan first said: "Our meeting today will resolve a key strategic issue: that is, in the Northeast now, there are two enemies, One is Russia, which has occupied Heilongjiang and Jilin, and the other is Japan, which has occupied Shengjing, who shall we fight first?"

Liu Kunyi first said: "I think Japan should be attacked first. First of all, in terms of military strength, the Russians deployed about 5000 troops in the Northeast, while Japan has less than [-] troops; secondly, from the perspective of geography He said, now that Shanhaiguan and Jinzhou are in our hands, it is very convenient for us to go out of Fengtian. If we take Shengjing, we can use this as the center to cut off the connection between the Japanese army on the Liaodong Peninsula and the Japanese army in North Korea, and regain the entire Shengjing. Beijing is also just around the corner.”

Lin Yuan smiled and said: "I have a different opinion. I think we should attack Russia first. First of all, Russia has 3 troops. How many people do we have in the Northeast? If we mobilize them, who will fight against them?" Will there be an advantage in military strength? Secondly, geographically, if we defeat Russia first and surround Japan on three sides strategically, then it will be a matter of time before we defeat the Japanese.”

Lin Yuan continued: "Think about it, everyone, the Japanese want to occupy Manchuria, and the Russians also want to occupy Manchuria. There is no doubt that the Russians are stronger now. If we attack the Russians, the Japanese must also We will take advantage of the situation to attack the Russians, and in that case, won't we save effort?"

Song Qing said: "You said that we should attack the Russians first, how should we fight? Now that the entire territory of Shengjing is occupied by the Japanese, it is impossible for us to take the route from Shengjing to Jilin! Then we have to go out of Yanshan, bypass Mongolia, and go to Jilin , attacking in the direction of Heilongjiang."

Lin Yuan smiled and said, "Yes, we are going to take this route."

As Lin Yuan pointed at the map, he said, "We directly attacked Daxing'an Mountains from Mongolia, and after we captured Daxing'an Mountains, the entire Northeast China was under our overlooking, condescending and overwhelming. You say, at that time, whether it was the Russians Or the Japanese, they will all be wiped out by us!"

The four people present frowned when they heard this, and Wu Dacheng said angrily, "Aren't you telling us to die? You can't just look at the map and do whatever you want! If you don't look at it, just go as you said , We have to go through a large desert in the middle, let alone whether we can go out, even our ammunition and supplies can’t keep up! Do you know? There are many new recruits in our army, and they don’t even have guns now !"

Jiang Gui also said: "How could such a thing be possible to conquer the Great Khingan Mountains from Mongolia! The Great Khingan Mountains is an endless mountain, and the important passes above are easy to defend and difficult to attack. The Russians must have taken strict precautions. Our troops guard all How could it be possible to take it down! Besides, Daxinganling is thousands of miles away! What about our back? Who can guarantee that the Japanese won’t stab us in the back!”

Lin Yuan thought for a while and said, "Then we won't go to Daxing'an Mountains. We will cross the desert and enter Jilin directly to attack the Russian army in Jilin."

Song Qing said angrily: "What nonsense are you talking about! Crossing the desert, do you know how big the desert is! You want to cross it! After crossing it, you have to face the old man! Isn't this just going to die!"

Liu Kunyi also said: "If it is true that the Russians entered Mongolia from Gubeikou and Xifengkou and crossed the desert to attack Jilin, it must be extremely difficult to transport ammunition and food!"

Lin Yuan said angrily: "Stop talking, just do as I say! Naturally, I will figure out how to deal with these things!"

Everyone was dumbfounded. After the previous trials, they all felt that this Lin Yuan was unfathomable, but today when Lin Yuan laid out his offensive strategy, he was like a scholar who can only talk on paper. None of his words could be relied on. They have no choice but to adjourn the meeting.

Fade Chen asked Lin Yuan in bewilderment: "Boss, what you said is not true, is it? Are we really going to cross the desert?"

Lin Yuan smiled and said, "Of course it's fake."

Chen Fei asked: "Then why did you lie to them?"
