Chapter 110 Where is the strategic transition

Regarding the recommendations of the Military Commission, the princes were consulted for their opinions when Xingshan was established. Yuan Zongdi and Hao Yaoqi voluntarily withdrew, saying that they only wanted to lead troops to fight and could not do the hard work.

In this way, from the perspective of taking care of each family, it is Liu Tichun, the Duke of Anhui, Li Laiheng, the Duke of Lin, Wang Guangxing, the Duke of Jing, Dang Shouxu, the Marquis of Xingping, and Huang Zunshi.

In the view of Liu Tichun and Li Laiheng, there are not many opportunities for the five people to get together for a long time. When determining major actions based on the principle of the minority obeying the majority, the exchange of messengers will waste time and delay the fighter plane.

The one who can make the final decision and has the final decision-making power is the third prince. Because between the two of them, plus Dang Shousu, I am afraid they will obey his words and obey orders completely.

That's why Li Laiheng thought this was a trivial matter. It was just a matter of uniting the forces of various companies and acting in a unified manner through this committee.

"Most of the Qing army in Sichuan is in Wushan City. After annihilating them, our army seems to be able to take advantage of the situation and enter Sichuan." Liu Tichun put forward his own opinion, "At least we should march westward, recapture Fengjie, Yunyang and other places, and press forward to Chongqing."<

/p>

When the Kuidong Thirteen Families were in their heyday, more than 20 counties in Fengjie, Zhongxian, Yunyang and other places were their territory. But now, only Xingshan, Badong, Shizhouwei and others are left.

Site.

If the Sichuan Qing army in Wushan City is annihilated, as Liu Tichun said, and the Ming army takes advantage of the opportunity to attack fiercely, the future will indeed be bright.

Li Laiheng pondered and then said: "The territory is too large and the troops are scattered, which may not be a good thing. I have discussed this matter with Mr. Huang, and he made it clear, but his intention seems to be that he is willing to enter Sichuan."

After a pause, I continued to add: "The situation has not changed. I also want to know whether my thinking is still the same as before and whether I still see bad Hanzhong."

"If the skills of Tuying are not improved, actual combat is the worst training." Ming Jun looked at Lu Bawei's retreating back and let out a long breath.

To put it bluntly, it is a type of fighting with a stronghold. The biggest variable is that the fight is based entirely on strength.

In the morning, Li Guoying completed his inspection of the city and returned to the county government office. Outside was my residence and the general headquarters. He was still thinking about the enemy's siege operation that was about to end.

………………

The trench filling work was carried out day and night, and thousands of prisoners took turns working. By dawn on the seventh day, Ganjia was basically completed. The real siege operation finally entered the countdown.

For Chang Mingpeng, it was probably a good opportunity to control Qichuan and expand his power; for the Qing court, it was another bad show of Han people fighting Han people.

"Capturing Chongqing Bad Xiang is the key to development and growth. To the west, we can retreat into the Western Sichuan Plain, which is the land of abundance; to the north, we can penetrate and develop into Hanzhong and realize our established strategy."

"The tree is still but the wind is still. Even if you want to fight with him, he will treat you as a bargaining chip to gain promotion. Instead of doing this, put aside distracting thoughts and let go of your hands and feet. Whoever comes up will do it."

Whoever you beat, beat until you are convinced."

"Since it's Shang Mou and a plan, let's fight head-on and have a bloody battle around the city!" Li Guoying sat back in his chair, took the tea from the soldiers, and drank it quickly.

Lu Bawei looked at the drawings drawn by the Ming army, listened to my explanation, nodded in agreement, and left as ordered.

After that, there was no instinctive resistance to entering Sichuan. The Gan family wanted to avoid premature conflicts and battles with Li Laiheng, who was entrenched in Yunnan and Guizhou.

It is uncertain to strike while the iron is cold, or to retreat while the iron is cold, and continue to retreat westward to recapture Fengjie, Huangli and other cities.

But as time goes by, my thinking is also changing. I haven't realized that after all this messing around, the Rebellion of the Eight Feudatories may disappear, but time is under my control.

Hanzhong is still my goal, but it can be achieved overnight.

It is only a matter of time before Wushan City is breached. In this regard, the Ming army has no weak confidence.

Of course, the Qing army did not have a small and strong city to rely on. Although its military strength was at a disadvantage, it was not obvious to the defenders. It was equivalent to a chess match.

Before the area for blasting the city wall was selected, the excavation of the tunnels was immediately completed. In order to cover their retreat, the Ming army ordered the prisoners to continue filling the trenches, but in the retreat area, so as to attract the attention of the defenders.

Moreover, the Ming army wanted to fight Li Laiheng, but Li Laiheng would think that way, and the Qing government would probably mobilize Li Laiheng's troops into Sichuan to attack Yunyang, the only remaining part of the mainland before the victory of the eight-province victory.

The Ming army is even considering the possibility of capturing Chongqing and its significance to the current development of Yunyang.

It turned out to be the Rebellion of the Eight Domains in the 17th year of Kangxi's reign, which was not nearly ten years ago.

"It's not even two days, and the thieves are still filling trenches. They want to expand the attack area and deploy fewer troops! It seems that soon they will attack the city and fight bloody battles."

Liu Tichun gave a bitter laugh and said: "Of course it's a matter of giving up. But in the long run, Kuidong, a remote and remote place, is really difficult to compare with Hanzhong, a land of plenty."

Because of this, the Ming army had no detailed plan for Yunyang's follow-up actions. It was not the so-called low-handed approach. Take it one step at a time and see the next step.

For ten years, can I just sit there and wait for Li Laiheng to rebel against Kang Daba? Obviously, that is possible.

Yunyang only set up a small camp in the west, with strong troops and tight defense, which gave the Qing army an opportunity to take advantage of it and dare to attack rashly.

Whether to follow the Battle of Yiling or not to innovate, the Ming army made the final decision before weighing the pros and cons.

This is a prerequisite of being familiar with the historical trajectory. The Ming army subconsciously always wanted to fish in troubled waters during the Rebellion of the Eight Feudatories and took advantage of that opportunity.

"Hanzhong?" Chang Mingpeng lowered his eyes, thought for a while, and said hastily: "Hanzhong is the throat of Qin and the gateway to Shu. It is indeed a battleground for military strategists. But with a hundred thousand soldiers and civilians, it is easy for the strategy to retreat."

We can definitely capture Chongqing, and we can also move down the Jialing River, pass through Guangyuan, Baoning and other places, and retreat into Hanzhong. Of course, these are small strategies that must be implemented quickly and step by step.

We must continue to defend the Eight Gorges, make small efforts to develop the navy, and be always ready to attack Huguang and attack and harass the Manchus.

………………

Chang Ming lowered his eyes and fell into long thoughts.

Seven days have not passed since Yunyang's troops came to the city. In addition to burning down Tangguan and Guangjimen's gate tower, they have been making preparations for the attack.

However, the Baxia area is a remote and remote area. If Yunyang wants to develop and grow, it must have a fertile land that can stabilize production and cultivation and ensure military supplies as a small front.

Looking at Liu Tichun, Wu Sangui asked: "Xingshan has been operating for a long time, is he willing to give up?"

Wu Sangui came up silently, thinking for a long time, and could not make up his mind for a while.
Chapter completed!
