The Rise of Ming Dynasty 1646

Chapter 621
He Tengjiao was bitter in his heart, and even his own people didn't believe that he had no wrong thoughts, so trying to explain clearly to Nanjing is tantamount to dreaming, guessing that Nanjing is discussing how to send troops to conquer Huguang.

Now that I am riding a tiger, I may have to go all the way to the dark.Fortunately, I still have the great banner of the Son of Heaven in my hand, and I can command the world in the name of Zhengshuo. In addition, a few days ago, Meng Zhengfa also sent an oath that Dorgon would stop fighting with him for three years and send troops to help him, saying that he would It is not impossible to defeat Zhu Linming.

He compared his eyes tiredly, and began to think about how to fight this battle. After a while, he began to look forward to the situation where the power would rule the world in the future, and a smile could not help but appear on the corner of his mouth.

……

As Ho Tengjiao expected, the Nanjing Military Deployment Office is holding a staff meeting.

Fortunately, Zhu Linmi had already made arrangements for Huguang, and this time the confrontation was relatively easy.But he also knew that this battle must not be delayed for too long, no, it must not exceed one and a half months at most before winning!

In the first place, Jianlu will definitely attack while taking advantage of the chaos. Although it is difficult for them to cross the Yangtze River defense line, Chuzhou, Hezhou and other places directly south to the north are within their attack range, and they cannot be allowed to gain a firm foothold in these places.

Second, after the Son of Heaven fell into He Tengjiao's hands, he could use his previous prestige to control various places in a short period of time, but after a long time, people's minds would inevitably change.If some local forces raise troops under the banner of "King Qin", it will cause greater damage to Ming Dynasty.

"Cough, my lord..."

Zhang Jiayu's whispered reminder interrupted his train of thought.He quickly put away other thoughts, and continued: "As I said just now, Huguang has been surrounded by several sides except the east side. The Wanji Department of the East Road will soon return to the Huguang battlefield to fight against Jianlu in Chuzhou and other places. It will be handed over to the Polu Battalion.

"Actually, the Zhongzhen Camp and He Tengjiao have betrayed their hearts. The day before yesterday, I secretly ordered Li Guo and Gao Yigong to take the front line of Yuezhou and Tongcheng, and cut off the northward passage of the Chu army in Changsha. After that, our army will concentrate on attacking Wuchang. I plan to Conquer the city within a month."

He glanced at the generals sitting, and began to arrange specific combat deployments, "I didn't plan to mobilize the Sichuan army too much, but now we need a quick battle. Therefore, Wang Yingxiong led his troops to hold Jianlu in Hanzhong, and transferred Qin Zuoming and Qin Zuoming to lead the army. The 1 white pole army, together with [-] elite troops from Li Dingguo and Liu Wenxiu's troops, together with [-] troops from Yang Zhan's troops, will serve as the West Route Army and the main force of this campaign.

"Wan Ji led 1 people from the Jiangxi Army under his command to serve as the East Route Army, and transferred Yongning King to listen to his restraint. He was mainly responsible for setting up defenses on the east side of Wuchang and blocking the escape route of Jiaodong. If necessary, he could also cooperate with the Baigan Army to attack.

"Luo Mingshou led the Yangtze River Navy to deploy defenses to the north of Wuchang, and also transported food and supplies for the infantry. I have seen the situation of the warships of the Huguang Navy, and the three medium-sized Galese warships in Luo Mingshou's hands are sufficient.

"The [-] Guangxi troops under Zhai Shishi's troops marched northward to Changsha. Try not to fight head-on with the Chu army, but only hold back nearby, so that the Changsha defenders dare not attack the Zhongzhen Camp with all their strength. In addition, if the Zhongzhen Camp has a disagreement, Zhai Shisi will immediately Attack Yuezhou by force, delay the Zhongzheng Camp at all costs, and buy time for the decisive battle in Wuchang."

His deployment can be described as airtight.With only the combat effectiveness of the Baigan Army and Li Dingguo's Ministry, they can easily defeat the [-] defenders in Wuchang, and with the support of Wanji and the Yangtze River Navy, it is enough to take Wuchang City within a month.You know, the current Baigan army is equipped with heavy artillery, and the Jiangxi army also has several twelve-pound guns in their hands. Under the bombardment day and night, the Wuchang city wall can last at most ten days.

At the same time, He Tengjiao couldn't escape even if he wanted to.Even in the worst-case scenario, the Zhongzheng Battalion turned against the water—although the possibility is extremely low—it can still transfer Jiangxi troops southward to cooperate with the Gui army to hold the enemy near Yuezhou.He still has nearly [-] Cantonese troops in reserve, which can at least win the Sichuan army more than a month.

Zhu Linmei continued: "Based on our army's equipment, training, and logistics level, it should not be difficult to defeat the Huguang soldiers in a frontal battle. What we need to pay attention to most is Jianlu taking advantage of the opportunity to attack. Among them, the Chuzhou area is the most urgent.

"Therefore, 5000 people from the Polu camp were left to defend Nanjing, and General Zhen personally sat in the town. Deng Shan, Sun Qi, Tie Dake, and Jin Wu led 8000 troops to Chuzhou to deploy defenses. Remember not to stick to it, and you can go to Yangzhou if necessary. , Gaoyou and other places, try to make some trouble for Duoduo.

"I will personally order the Dragon Guards, Yu Zhen and Du Kai of the Polu Camp to be responsible for the defense of the south bank of the Yangtze River...

"Chen Bangyan was transferred back to Guangzhou to serve as the prefect of Guangzhou. Chen Zizhuang rushed to Fujing to lead the garrison of Tianxing Prefecture. Zhang Huangyan was transferred to be the commander of the garrison of Shaoxing Prefecture..."

Empress Dowager Zeng caressed her son's little coat, her brows were full of pain and worry, but her eyes had dried up with tears, and looked extremely red and swollen.

"Empress Dowager," Pang Tianshou came into the hall and whispered, "Master Guo Weijing is here."

She hurriedly stretched out her trembling right hand and waved, "Let him in quickly."
