platform.

Yang Reform quickly entered the platform, and the voice of saluting suddenly sounded.

"……salute……"

"No gift!" Yang Reform returned the gift.

"Relax!" On the platform, with an order, it resumed its operation like a machine.

Yang Reform went straight to the big sand table.

"I see Your Majesty!" Sun Chengzong bowed again.

"I see Your Majesty!" Qin Liangyu also bowed and saluted.

"You two are exempt." Yang Reform said with a smile.

"Thank you, Your Majesty..." Sun Chengzong and Qin Liangyu stood up.

After some salutes, Yang Reform began to talk about business.

"I'm late, but I kept you two waiting for a long time. Master Sun and Mrs. Qin are about to set off, and I won't say anything else. Now, let's determine the specific combat plan and countermeasures. Master Sun said first." Let’s talk about the plan of the staff department.” Yang Reform said with a smile.

"I obey!" Sun Chengzong agreed, and then began to talk about the specific arrangement.

"...The staff department formulated a combat plan for the Sancha River landing according to His Majesty's wishes..." Sun Chengzong began to explain in detail, pointing out specific directions on the sand table while speaking.On this sand table, the locations of various places are marked in considerable detail, the most obvious of which is the Great Wall. No matter what, a long Great Wall is conspicuous on any map. Beijing, as the center of the Ming Dynasty, is also quite It is conspicuous, and then to the east of Beijing City is Tianjin. When you arrive in Tianjin, it is obvious that it is the sea. Go north along the sea, you can go to Shanhaiguan, continue north to Ningyuan, Juehua Island, and then north you can see Jinzhou. Between Jinzhou and Ningyuan, a circle of black arrows is used to surround a city. This city is Songshan Fort. .

But to the east of Jinzhou, across the ocean and the coast, you can see a place where the place name is marked, but there is no city, only a few boats berthed. At this place, there is also a river, and the name of the river is also marked, which is "Three "Chahe", the Sancha River winds upwards to the north, and there are two cities marked in black, one is Liaoyang City, and further north of Liaoyang City is Shenyang City, according to Hou Jin, this is Shengjing. [Sancha River is the current Liaohe River. The mouth of the Sancha River is now Yingkou City. The names of the rivers in ancient times were different, and the areas they flowed through seem to be different from those of today. The river course seems to have changed. 】

"...The main combat force for the Sancha River landing is Zhensu's white-armed soldiers, together with artillery, cavalry, and infantry, there are about 8000 people. The artillery and cavalry are not counted. The troops that Zhensu can directly command are More than 3 people, if you count the support from Yuan Ziru and Mao Wenlong, the actual number of troops on the battlefield may be as high as [-] to [-], and Zhensu can be sure..." Sun Chengzong said with a smile on the corner of his mouth, which was an explanation Tell Qin Liangyu.

In fact, this battle plan has been out for at least half a year. At this moment, Sun Chengzong is just repeating the plan half a year ago.Qin Liangyu had thought about this battle plan hundreds of times, and he was familiar with it. Now that Sun Chengzong said this plan, Qin Liangyu understood it quite clearly.

"... Zhensu understands that there are 3 horses this time, and there are all kinds of weapons provided by His Majesty, including rifles, cannons, and cavalry, so there should be no problem..." Qin Liangyu said confidently.

"...Since Zhensu understands, the old man will stop talking. According to His Majesty, the old man is only responsible for coordinating all parties, and Zhensu is responsible for the actual combat..." Sun Chengzong looked at Qin Liangyu with some said with a smile.

"I thank Your Majesty for your trust. You should die for your kindness." Qin Liangyu said with emotion.

"...Originally, according to my intention, this battle should have been directly commanded by Mrs. Qin. However, Mrs. Qin must also understand that other than my new army, Mrs. Qin, will participate in the battle this time. , as well as Mao Wenlong, Man Gui, and Yuan Chonghuan, these people are all members of one party, or giants, and a huge fleet is involved. In fact, they may need to use 10 horses and thousands of ships. Such a huge mobilization and call, I also have no choice but to send Master Sun to sit in the town! Otherwise, the mighty generals from all sides may not be able to work together... In this matter, Mrs. Qin still needs to understand my difficulties..." Yang Reform said.

"Your Majesty's difficulties, I understand, I must fight this battle well, win honor for Your Majesty, and don't make things difficult for Your Majesty. It is already not easy for me to command the Sancha River landing operation, so how can I expect more..." Qin Liangyu also said He said with emotion that the emperor asked her to directly command the Sancha River to land, and directly command 3 horses and Donglu to take the lead. It is already quite rare to use her as the main force. The pressure on the emperor is already great. If Then she asked the emperor to put Mao Wenlong, Yuan Chonghuan and even the huge fleet under her command. She herself felt that it was too complicated, and it would be better to just focus on fighting.

It is difficult for such a large-scale, cross-regional war without an important minister to sit in charge.Based on her face alone, she is far inferior to Sun Chengzong in many places. In Liaodong, Sun Chengzong can be regarded as a veteran. Yuan Chonghuan, Man Gui, and Zhao Lediao have all worked under Sun Chengzong, and many of them were promoted by Sun Chengzong. Regarding Sun Chengzong's words, I dare not be sloppy. Even if Mao Wenlong is conceited and arrogant, and does not fit well with people in the Ming Dynasty, he is at least a generation shorter in front of Sun Chengzong. Sun Chengzong commanded him, and he dared not say a word of nonsense Yes, even the emperor has to call Master Sun Chengzong. He, who is supported by the emperor's money, dare not prevaricate Sun Chengzong. Sun Chengzong directs them, but it is logical. There is no problem at all for the various ministries to participate in the battle. Coordinated operations in such a vast area can greatly avoid command failures, and will not encounter great resistance or rebellion like other people.

Others, such as calling warships, require Sun Chengzong to come forward even more. When the new army crosses the sea, it needs a huge fleet. In addition to warships, it also needs a large number of transport ships, and it also needs to deal with docks, guards, and local governments everywhere. , Sun Chengzong, a civil servant who was born as a Jinshi, was easier to handle than their warriors. The literati in the late Ming Dynasty looked down on warriors, and even looked down on native officials. With great power, there is no problem in cooperating with the cabinet ministers of the holy family, the ports, the guards, and the local government, and they can hold the scene, that is to say.

"Well, it's good that Mrs. Qin understands..., Mrs. Qin must be familiar with this battle, so I won't ask Mrs. Qin how to fight it anymore. Once Mrs. Qin lands on the Sancha River , Mrs. Qin is in charge of the matter of the Sancha River, is there a problem with Mrs. Qin?" Yang Reform did not intend to care about the infantry phalanx anymore, and handed over the matter to Qin Liangyu. Experts who fight with soldiers only need to make arrangements at the strategic level. They don't have to worry about specific operational details and tactics.

"Returning to Your Majesty, I understand that there is no problem, and I will definitely not disappoint Your Majesty. I will wash away the shame and blood feud of the past, and avenge the soldiers who died unjustly in Liaodong." Qin Liangyu said bitterly.

"Well, I'll leave it to Mrs. Qin this time...By the way, Master Sun, I want to ask, since I am going to land on the Sancha River in Ming Dynasty, will I be able to break the siege of Songshanbai? Can Master Sun be sure of attracting people to Sancha River? Tens of thousands of people landed, and it is not easy to do it all at once, can Master Sun have a countermeasure?" Yang Reform asked another small detail, that is, landing belongs to landing, However, after landing, how to attract Donglu to the Sancha River, we have to find some ways, and it will take a long time for tens of thousands of horses and equipment to land on the Sancha River. This is worth asking Yang Reform.

"Return to Your Majesty, this staff department has been prepared for a long time. Your Majesty, didn't you arrange all those bounty hunters on this section of the coastline earlier? In fact, there are a large number of warships patrolling in this sea area. A large number of bounty hunters of our dynasty are active, and they often entangle and fight with Donglu, and each wins and loses..." Sun Chengzong began to explain on the sand table, and while he was talking, he pointed on the sand table with a baton. This piece of sea area is actually the section from Songshan Fort to Sancha River to Gaizhou.

"...So, my army is going to land on the Sancha River. I want to prevent the Donglu from suddenly attacking and interrupt my landing, but also to attract the Donglu to the Sancha River. I just need to send a group of elite cavalry ahead. It can be transported by the way of transporting bounty hunters, or three to 4000 people, and a group of Donglu in this area will be swept away by surprise. After Donglu gets the news, they will definitely send people to check. Knowing that there are thousands of elites from my Ming Dynasty active here, I will definitely not let a small group of people rush to die, and there will definitely be a large number of people who will come to check the situation. It will definitely not be Huang Taiji's side. Huang Taiji is besieging Songshan Fort, and will not give up easily. Huang Taiji's side has only 4 to 3000 horses. If he confronts Yuan Ziru, he will be slightly better. I feel uneasy, so the reinforcements from Donglu's lair must come. It stands to reason that if Donglu knows that we have thousands of elite cavalry in the dynasty, at least thousands of troops will be dispatched, and at most 3000 horses. As soon as [-] troops can be led to Sancha River, I think that at this time, Zhen Su's white soldiers must have landed and are ready to fight against the enemy..." Sun Chengzong's baton was constantly flying between Sancha River and Shenyang Swimming back and forth, pointing.

"...After our court cavalry lead the thousands of reinforcements sent by Donglu to Sancha River, the staff department's plan is to let Zhensu send suitable white soldiers according to the Donglu troops brought in, and come in a hollow phalanx. To face the enemy, if there are three thousand soldiers from the East, then three to five thousand white-armed soldiers will be dispatched, and they will be equipped with cavalry to defeat the enemy. The soldiers are no more than three to five thousand, and they think they are easy to bully, so they will definitely come to attack. Once these Donglu reinforcements come to attack, they will fall into the trap of our dynasty. , At this time, I am afraid that there are thousands of Donglu heads in my hands. According to Donglu's temperament, he will definitely attack in a large scale, so he must come to Sancha River... This is to let Bai Gan Soldiers have a process of familiarizing themselves with actual combat to increase their experience in actual combat; second, to increase the morale of our court; Come to Sancha River, in this way, the siege of Songshan Fort will be solved..." Sun Chengzong continued to explain with a smile.

"Yes, this method is not bad. Although we are strategically on the defensive and passive, but thanks to the convenience of sea transportation, to a certain extent, our dynasty has an active advantage. We can choose where to fight. Just as I am facing the side wall, it is difficult to prevent Donglu from breaking through at any point. Similarly, Donglu cannot prevent me from landing at any point on the long coastline. This has given me a lot of convenience. The disposition of the prisoner, if he has lost thousands of troops, he is not afraid that he will not come to Sanchahe. Once the Eastern prisoner is mobilized by our court, the initiative will be in my hands again. Not to mention the siege of Songshan Fort, the Eastern prisoner will have to travel a long way Trekking to attack me and waiting for work, this method of luring the enemy is really good..." Yang Reform affirmed.This method is very good. To deal with the harassment of bounty hunters today, a group of people will be sent ashore in this area to sweep away those Donglu who are entangled with bounty hunters. We need to send troops to support, and once they come to support, lead these supporters to the Sancha River. After thinking about it for a long time, the white soldiers have almost landed, and they can fight in battle. Few people came, but only two or three thousand, so they dispatched three to five thousand white soldiers to fight against the enemy. Donglu saw that there were so few people, and he continued to provoke, so he would definitely attack. Once he attacked, he had to let them know the hollow side The formation is fierce. This battle is almost certain. The Ming Dynasty won. As long as the white soldiers restrained the cavalry's impact and then used the cavalry to counter the assault, it would not be difficult to win. At least a lot of heads can be harvested. With this batch of heads here, Huang Taiji will come even if he doesn't want to. Although this battle is small, it can verify the correctness of the white-armed soldiers against the enemy, and it can be summarized for larger-scale battles Experience, boosting morale, is a pretty good strategy. In fact, the battle between white soldiers and Donglu should go through actual combat. Only in this way can we be more confident in fighting Donglu. There is no time for white soldiers to go to actual combat, so they can only find a way to gain some experience before the big battle, and get some actual combat experience.

"...That's right, Your Majesty, this idea is designed for the characteristics that Donglu has no sea transportation and cannot lose. As long as we are undefeated, we will win, while Donglu can only win, or even a tie. A big failure, this characteristic determines that Donglu cannot accept failure, even if it is a failure of thousands or thousands of people. For Donglu, if they don’t win back in time, it will be fatal to them. Our victory is in the frontier The vastness, strong stamina, some losses, and even a batch can come again, while Donglu loses because of the thin population and lack of stamina. If you lose, you will have no chance to start again. Any failure is a fatal blow to Donglu... ...Therefore, as long as I implement this strategy, Donglu can only follow the circle of my court, and I have to come. The form is extremely beneficial to my court..." Sun Chengzong explained with some smiles, now, Sun Chengzong analyzed the advantages and disadvantages of the Ming Dynasty and the Donglu clearly and thoroughly, and enlarged and reduced their respective advantages and disadvantages through various means, so as to achieve the purpose that is beneficial to him.

"Okay! Let's do it like this, the specific operation..." Yang Reform said yes.

"Returning to Your Majesty, the minister is only responsible for coordination. The specific command still depends on Zhensu..." Sun Chengzong explained with a smile. At this time, Sun Chengzong was in a very good mood. Now the Ming Dynasty has a great chance of winning. To some extent, even If you have the initiative and are almost invincible, you are sure of victory.Sun Chengzong felt that there was no need to control them too leniently. He didn't know much about the white-armed soldiers, so he might as well let Qin Liangyu command them.

"Madam Qin, is there a problem?" Yang Reform asked.

"Return to Your Majesty, I have no problem with you. However, if I have a request, please let your Majesty fulfill it." Qin Liangyu thought for a while, and agreed with a smile. This strategy is basically no problem. Once the first batch of reinforcements from Donglu are brought to Sancha He, I'm not afraid that he won't follow behind. The only problem is, who will be responsible for leading the reinforcements from the Eastern Captives?Qin Liangyu felt that the cavalry training time in his hands was relatively short, and it was a bit difficult to lure the Eastern captives in the wild, and if something went wrong, it would be a big problem.

"Oh, Mrs. Qin, just talk." Yang Reformed.

"Returning to Your Majesty, the cavalry who are responsible for luring the reinforcements from the Eastern Captives, I feel that they must have experience in dealing with the Eastern Captives. They must be bold and shrewd. Although I am very proud of the white soldiers, I dare not trust the cavalry. , I would like to ask His Majesty to send someone over for my minister, so that I can be sure..." Qin Liangyu replied with a smile.

"Oh, who?" Yang Reform asked curiously. Sometimes Qin Liangyu didn't dare to make a promise!

"Back to Your Majesty, the little hero of Dongjiang, Ma Shitou, Your Majesty should have heard his name." Qin Liangyu smiled. This is the man she wants. This man is famous in Dongjiang Town for his boldness and shrewdness. He can be regarded as a star player, and he has to be received by the emperor, so he has a bright future.

"Oh, Ma Shishitou! I know, I think it will be fine, hehehe... It's easy to say..., I can also transfer the army he is in to Mrs. Qin..." Yang Reform was shocked when he heard it. I understand, if you want to say who is the most daring to tease Donglu in Liaodong, it is really none other than this person. The kite flying style invented by this guy is now popular in Liaodong. It really makes Donglu a headache. Let's chase it. There must be a grenade exploding, so don't chase after it. Seeing people run away from my eyes, I feel very aggrieved.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Qin Liangyu thanked him very satisfied. With this person, the task of seducing Donglu is no problem.

"Hehehe, Master Sun went on to say, look, there are still some problems..." Yang Reform said happily.

"Returning to Your Majesty, I think it's better to bring back the governor of Mangui and Mandu to serve as auxiliary cavalry with Zhensu. Otherwise, Zhensu's cavalry is still less, and Zhensu's cavalry also lacks actual combat experience. Fight hard, I'm afraid I won't be able to resist..." Sun Chengzong pointed at the Zhangjiakou pass and said.

"...Well..., then follow Master Sun's instructions and transfer Man Gui back to the white-armed soldiers as auxiliary cavalry." Yang Reform did not hesitate long before making a decision. This decision is not easy to make, Yang Reform I have been hesitating about who to send to Qin Liangyu as an auxiliary cavalry. Qin Liangyu's own cavalry is relatively small, which is enough to deal with ordinary enemies, but to fight against elite cavalry like Donglu, there are still some cavalry. The pole soldiers originally had no cavalry, and the newly assigned cavalry has no combat effectiveness. A mature cavalry team is needed to assist the white pole soldiers. Otherwise, even if the white pole soldiers win, they will not be able to expand the results. Hesitating, I don’t want to transfer Man Gui and Zhao to teach. After all, the Mongols are not safe here, and the new army is still a little tender. To match Qin Liangyu with Mao Wenlong or Yuan Chonghuan’s cavalry, Yang Reform is not at ease, and has been hesitating. Today, there is no longer any hesitation, and a decision must be made.

"Minister Zunzhi...!" Sun Chengzong said, regarding who to transfer to Qin Liangyu as an auxiliary cavalry, Sun Chengzong has always been in a dilemma, after much deliberation, Mangui's cavalry is the most suitable.

"...Well,... I want to ask, is there no problem with the ship?" Yang Reform nodded, and asked again, such a large-scale cross-sea battle is also rare, and the need for ships is not one or two. [Just a word, in history, the army of the late Ming Dynasty had the ability to cross the sea on a large scale. In the sixth year of Chongzhen, after the Wuqiao Mutiny, Kong Youde's 1 horsemen planned to retreat from the sea. The ship was made by Sun Yuanhua... Khan, if you count The cannons cast by Sun Yuanhua, Sun Yuanhua is also a warship cannonist. What he does is almost the same as that of a traverser. He hangs out with the future court bosses, and then goes to the border to gain experience, cast cannons, and build ships. Unfortunately, there is no Protagonist template, otherwise, history may be rewritten. 】

"Return to Your Majesty, Your Majesty has already explained before that the minister has already done it in advance. The ship is not a problem, and the navy is not a problem. Whether it is attacking, supporting and intercepting the Eastern captives, or transporting troops, food and grass, there is no problem. Rest assured, Your Majesty," Sun Chengzong assured.

"Okay, that's good! How's the matter with the Navy?" Yang Reform felt relieved. The battle across the sea was basically ready, and the only thing left was to start.

"Returning to Your Majesty, the navy estimates that it has already been established. The minister has already passed the news, but the establishment is a bit shabby, and the minister can't get away for a while. Therefore, the navy is established. I am afraid that no one will be present..." Sun Chengzong said with some regret.

"Oh, yes, it's better to keep a low profile." Yang Reform nodded and said.

When Yang Reform said about the navy, he was a little absent-minded again. He basically had nothing to do with the war with Donglu here. He had to plan other things, and the navy couldn't stop for a moment.

Qin Liangyu didn't know much about the navy, but only knew that a navy was set up, and I heard that it was set up for this crossing. Seeing that the emperor suddenly lost his mind, he was going to remind the emperor, and asked his own question along the way. Ask, there is a question, Qin Liangyu is puzzled.

"I want to report to Your Majesty that I am puzzled by something, so please give me your advice." Qin Liangyu said in a soft voice, interrupting Yang Reform's thoughts.

"Oh, Madam Qin, if you have any questions, just ask." Yang Reform put back his wandering thoughts and asked intently. It's not right to desert at this time.

"I would like to ask Your Majesty, why didn't Your Majesty go all out to destroy the Eastern Captives in this landing operation? Why is it this kind of siege everywhere and only strive for a tie? I really don't understand it. According to my opinion, if His Majesty will attack with all his strength, gather Mao Shuai, Yuan Futai, Mandu Dudu, Zhao Dudu, ministers, and many elites in the new army. They are fully capable of competing with Donglu. As long as all parties cooperate properly and Sun Ge is in charge, It is possible to wipe out the Eastern Captives in one fell swoop. His Majesty Chen Guan has already spent tens of millions of dollars outside the pass, which is really expensive. If the Eastern Captives can be eliminated at once, such a huge expense can be avoided, and it can save a lot of money. Less money..." Qin Liangyu has been wanting to ask this question in his heart. Looking at the elites in the emperor's hands, it is no problem to draw [-] to [-] yuan from Mao Wenlong, and it is no problem to draw [-] to [-] yuan from Yuan Chonghuan. There are actually [-] elites there. The white soldiers she recruited herself plus the new army are not inferior to the Eastern Captives in terms of strength. They are all battle-ready soldiers. Enough, to defeat the Donglu, the problem is not too big, with Sun Ge's old command, everyone obeys, each department will fight, and they will not shirk, and they will not pull their legs. When fighting, the chances of winning are great, but now, it is only With the goal of tie, Qin Liangyu couldn't figure it out. The emperor would rather confront Donglu with a large amount of money than solve Donglu all at once. She couldn't figure it out.

"Hehe..." Yang Reform was taken aback by the question, his eyes flashed, he looked at Sun Chengzong, and Sun Chengzong also had the same expression, looking over brightly.

"...Hehe, this matter, in fact, I am afraid of repeating the same mistakes of the past! Back then, it was because the court urged me too quickly, which led to a big defeat. Now, I am cautious and try to be as stable as possible. If I repeat the past I don't feel good about the big defeat!" Yang Reform explained with a smile.

"...Here, Your Majesty..." Qin Liangyu is still not convinced by this explanation. She always feels that the emperor deliberately released water, and never thought of destroying Donglu all at once, and even sent Mangui to him. Going to Liaodong, Xuan and Da left a lot of elites, and they didn't use all their strength to deal with the Donglu. Qin Liangyu always felt that the emperor's thoughts might not only be on the Liaodong Donglu.

"This..., huh..." Yang Reform was ashamed. This woman's intuition is really scary. In addition to gaining experience and boosting morale, Yang Reform set his sights on Lin Danhan, the vast land north of the three eastern provinces, and the vast land west of Gansu Town. The territory actually controlled by the Ming Dynasty is mainly in the south of the Great Wall, and the west only reaches the Gansu area. The gap with the territory of China in the future is not ordinary. Yang Reform, as a traverser from later generations, faces today The actual map of the Ming Dynasty always has a feeling of being "beheaded", "tailed" and "waisted". This feeling is really very uncomfortable. It is necessary to take back these sites. Territory, wars are indispensable, wars cost money, and the army needs to be raised. Without a "strong" opponent and a plausible excuse, it is impossible to "take back" these inherent territories of China. Therefore, the wild boar skin It is necessary to reserve the opponents who have suffered a great loss from the Ming Dynasty. If the Ming Dynasty directly beats Lin Danhan, there are not a few people in the court who oppose it, and many imperial parties will oppose it. After all, this is a thankless task. Even if he wins, he has to return in the future, otherwise there will be no Great Wall, but if Lin Danhan was killed by wild boar skin, then, in order to prevent Donglu from getting bigger and prevent Donglu from entering the customs from any point on the Great Wall, It must be going to fight wild boar skins, and there will be an excuse for fighting, and there will be sufficient reasons for maintaining a large number of troops, and the pressure in the country will not be so great. Once the army passes by, the pioneer group will definitely follow If you keep up, the immigrant team will also follow. After laying down a place, this place will be named Zhu immediately. After the wild boar skin cleans up Lin Danhan, then drive the wild boar skin to the west, and by the way, you can clean up the Mongolian right-wing tribes. In this way, the territory of Inner Mongolia and Mongolia has been taken back. If the wild boar skins are driven westward, Xinjiang and Tibet can also be taken back. Of course, the money spent is definitely not a small amount, but if the Looking at the world, think about the years of Kangxi, when the Russians and Kangxi fought for territory in the Northeast, you know that time is not waiting for you, if the Chinese don’t go out to grab territory, foreigners will also grab their own homes, and after the Chongzhen year is over, Kangxi will arrive soon Years ago, the Russians came across Siberia to China, what a horrible thing.
