The unexpected success of the capture of Jianchang Prefecture made the Southwest Expedition Army feel full of confidence, and they began to predict the next battle situation one by one. There was even a saying that "sweeps the Dali Kingdom in two months." What makes people laugh and cry is that many people agree with this statement.

Of course, Xin Qiji and the staff members of the Staff Office would not be blindly optimistic. However, after this battle, when everyone formulated a combat plan, they would of course be bolder. Therefore, the combat plan to capture Huichuan sets the time for the capture of Huichuan within five days. As for the specific siege tactics, the Battle of Jianchang is the best example. As a member of the Staff Office with a high spirit, he carefully summarized the Battle of Jianchang, selected several shortcomings, and then listed improvement measures one by one. In other words, this is a major advantage of establishing the Staff Office. Before this, the Song Dynasty relied more on the personal abilities of a general, and his strategy and tactics determined the direction of the war. Now, with this staff team, a command and dispatch team has been formed. Perhaps from then on, excellent tactical commanders will continue to emerge in this staff team, and they will be generals who are well versed in team cooperation.

What made Chen Yujie feel particularly gratified was that this was a learning staff team. They eagerly digested and absorbed the essence of new combat through actual combat. It is impossible to say that war is the best textbook. After this battle, the soldiers of the Song Dynasty made rapid progress in using firearms. Now Chen Yujie began to feel a sense of crisis, and the tactics he knew were drawing out bit by bit, such as introducing "infantry and artillery coordination". These colleagues quickly understood it, and then new questions were raised. Chen Yujie was worried that perhaps in half a year, he would never be able to come up with new tricks in front of them.

Of course, Chen Yujie's worries are unnecessary. In fact, these rookies are now in a stage of being very novel about new tactics. After seeing the power of the 75mm cannon, they think they are magical killing weapons. This alone is enough for these people to digest for a while.

Speaking of which, Huichuan Prefecture was still under the jurisdiction of the Tang Dynasty in the early Tang Dynasty, and was occupied by Nanzhao after the Anshi Rebellion. Later, Dali Kingdom replaced Nanzhao, Huichuan Prefecture belonged to Dali. Huichuan Prefecture was named Huili in later generations, and was a famous mineral land. He Chian had long been muttering, claiming that other places could not be occupied, but Huili must take it. Nothing else is because Huili produces "white copper", which is actually copper-nickel alloy. In later generations, Huili 901 mine was one of the most important nickel ores in the national dynasty, and nickel metal is an important strategic resource. Regardless of the barrel and gun barrel, all indicators will be greatly improved after being mixed with nickel. Therefore, in addition to Lu Yijian, He Chian was also a time traveler who actively advocated the war against Dali.

The Huichuan defenders were only 4,000, and the young and strong in the city could gather 10,000 people. However, the southwest recruiting army in the Song Dynasty was very upright and the weapons gap was like a world of difference, so Guo Ni did not take Huichuan Mansion seriously at all.

Guo Ni was not satisfied with General Tang's combat plan, and advocated sending troops to besiege Huichuan Prefecture while sending another army to advance to the front line of Jinsha River to threaten the General Administration. Once he captured Huichuan, he quickly led his troops to cross the Jinsha River, and then took the General Administration and attacked Dali directly.

After Guo Ni finished speaking in a swing, Xin Qiji showed his eyes and said, it was time for your deputy chief of staff to express his opinion.

Chen Yujie cleared his throat. This action was based on the smell of betel nut in the room. Just now, even Xin Qiji threw a piece of betel nut into his mouth. At this moment, he was chewing the "panda" betel nut leisurely, which made Chen Yujie feel like a ball of betel nut fibers in his mouth. Well, concentrate, don't be distracted by betel nuts. Chen Yujie said:

"Food and grass are the top priority in large-scale combat. Since our army marched, due to the plateau terrain of Jianchang and Huichuan, as well as the mountains and rivers, it is difficult to transport food and grass. The deeper our army is, the more difficult it is to transport food and grass. I think that fighting Dali, the two armies are of course crucial to fight in front of the formation, but with our army's huge advantages in weapons, it should not be difficult to defeat the Dali army, which is not very powerful in front of the formation. Therefore, to completely defeat Dali, I still say the same thing, it depends on our ability to transport food and grass military supplies, that is, our logistics can support the transport of food and grass military supplies, as far as our army can! On the contrary, if our logistics cannot keep up and the transport of food and grass military supplies cannot transport the army in time, then our army should advance with caution."

"Deputy Chief of Staff Chen said it is right. From Jianchang to Huichuan, and then to the Moutong Prefecture, the mountains and rivers are everywhere. Our army lacks enough mules and horses, so we can only use a large number of migrant workers. Even so, the transportation of food, grass and weapons is still difficult to meet the needs of the frontline. As the saying goes, it is better for our army to advance step by step."

Xin Qiji recalled that when he followed Geng Jing, his army was so prosperous at the beginning and how quickly it was when it declined. Now that he is the commander, he is already a year of knowing his destiny. This time he can be a very rare opportunity to be able to command the army. Of course, he cannot tolerate any irreversible defeat. It is precisely based on this idea that Xin Qiji's first choice of tactics is to fight steadily.

It's right to think about it! If Xin Qiji fails, the honor and disgrace of Xin Qiji are small. I am afraid that the Song Dynasty, which has just been working hard, will return to the old path of "fear of war". Xin Qiji, who knows the political ecology of the Song Dynasty, naturally must not ignore this point.

That's right! "I'd rather stop three points than grab one second!" Dashu Xin, I'm optimistic about you!

After Xin Qiji finished speaking, Guo Ni wanted to say something. At this time, a report was made outside the door, and then the telegrapher came in with a telegram.

"Report, Bi Zai met a call from the department."

"Remember!" After Xin Qiji finished giving the instructions, he spit out the residue of betel nut in his mouth on the ground. Chen Yujie thought to himself, "My Grandmaster Xin, indeed, has a rough bandit spirit! Of course, roughness is a little nicer to put, but not nicer to put it, you are too careless, you are too careless," said Mr. Xin.

I don’t know what the telegram content of Bi Zaiyu is, it should be good news. Bi Zaiyu is also known as a famous general in history. During the Kaixi Northern Expedition, other generals of the Song Dynasty were pushed back and forth by the Jin soldiers, Bi Zaiyu’s performance was very eye-catching, and it was one of the few highlights of the generals of the Song Dynasty. Of course, that’s a later story. But famous generals are famous generals. According to Chen Yujie’s observation, General Bi really has two skills and is good at the military. Even in the training of firearms, he is not at all inferior.

"Our army has successfully arrived at Huichuan Prefecture. The Huichuan defenders are guarding the door and our army is deploying a siege."

It turned out that I had arrived in Huichuan, but my original mission was to arrive in Huichuan as a pioneer, be on the spot, wait for the subsequent army to encircle. Unexpectedly, Bi Zaiyu wanted to use three thousand soldiers to encircle Huichuan!

But Xin Qiji just nodded and had no intention of criticizing Bi Zaiyu. Perhaps in his mind, the three thousand Song siege of the powerful army in Huichuan City was nothing, even if there were more than 10,000 enemies in Huichuan City! In fact, since it was confirmed that betel nut could prevent miasma, General Xin has upgraded his team's combat power by one level. Miasma cannot harm the army, so combat power will naturally be increased. In Xin Qiji's eyes, even if there are 10,000 troops in Dali, they may not be the opponents of Bi Zai's three thousand Song troops.

To be honest, the generals of the Song Dynasty are really full of confidence now, and even Xin Qiji, who is seeking stability, is no exception.

"The command is sent to Huichuan as quickly as possible and encircle it. The command is sent to ensure the supply of food, grass and military supplies in the front. Deputy Chief of Staff Chen is right. We can transport it to win." After saying that, a smile surged in the corner of his mouth and said, "The people of Dali are firm and clear about the world, and they think beautifully! They didn't expect that we have Japanese labor this time, and these Japanese people take less and do more. Hehe, with these laborers, the logistics problem is not a problem. Haha!"
