Inside the big tent, Zhao Ming greeted, "Wait and see!"
”Zhao Ming pressed his hands on the edge of the sand table, and in front of him was a huge sand table, showing the mountains, rivers, cities and fortresses in Liaodong, Liaozhong, Liaoxi and even Shandong in North Korea.In the past two years, the Heaven and Earth Society has strengthened the collection of intelligence in the north, and its members are all over the northern provinces, and even Mongolia, Korea, and Japan have Tiandi Society activities.On the one hand, they are engaged in commercial activities, and on the other hand, they are investigating local intelligence and collecting local customs, and they have become a relatively large organization.After the fall of the two capitals, the Ming Dynasty lost many files and materials, such as the topography of mountains and rivers, population and minerals, etc., which are now recollected by the Heaven and Earth Society and organized into volumes.With this information, when the Ming army started a war, it was like having eyes, knowing which prefecture and county were rich and had a large population, and which could be supplied when they were killed, knowing where there were minerals, and occupying the weapons that could be smelted.All the information on the sand table is also extracted from these files and then manufactured.Xie Qian, Yu Guowang, Guo Zhong, Ding Weiyue, Huo Jianyan, Li Benshen, Lin Qingzhi and other coalition generals listened to Zhao Ming's words, gathered around, and looked at the sand table.Zhao Ming smiled and said, "Look at the situation outside the gate!"
”Xie Qian hugged his fists and said: "Please also show the big handsome!"
”Zhao Ming turned his head to look at Li Benshen and said, "General Li, you came from Guannei to Guanwai, what about the population and fields outside Guanwai you saw along the way?"
”Li Benshen was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Returning to the marshal, the Manchurians are worried that the Han people will occupy their old nest, so they have adopted the policy of sealing the customs and prohibiting the Han people from entering the customs.Since the Manchurians brought hundreds of thousands of dependents and clothed slaves into the customs, the places of western Liaoning, central Liaoning, and eastern Liaodong are all barren.Humbling out of Shanhaiguan, along the corridor of western Liaoning, to the vicinity of Shenyang, only to see some fields and cultivated coatings. ”Zhao Ming bowed slightly: "Did you hear anything?"
”Xie Qian immediately clenched his fists and said with some excitement: "I heard it, the outside of the pass is extremely empty, and my army can take advantage of the void to enter and sweep outside the pass, and even take Shenyang City and burn the palace and mausoleum of the Tartars." ”"Commander Xie is right!"
Zhao Ming shook his head again, "But this can only be done quickly for a while, and it can't cause real harm to the Manchu Qing." ”Xie Qian frowned, "What does the handsome mean?"
”Zhao Ming smiled and pointed to the sand table, "Now the Manchu Qing Dynasty does not have many troops outside the pass, and the coalition forces have already threatened Shenyang.Shenyang was renamed Shengjing by the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and the bones of the old slave were also buried here.Therefore, for the Manchu Qing Dynasty, Shenyang was a city of great significance, and it was a place that must be defended.The Qing army didn't want Ben Shuai to take Shenyang, so they would definitely send troops to reinforce Liaodong and block Ben Shuai on the Yalu River!
”The Manchu court would definitely not allow the Ming army to capture Shenyang, so it would definitely send more troops to Liaodong.Zhao Ming paused as he spoke, and then continued: "From the words of General Li, it can be seen that it is inconvenient for the Qing army to obtain supplies from outside the customs, and military supplies and food need to be transported from inside the customs.If the Qing army sent reinforcements, it would increase the pressure on the Manchu supply system. ”If the Qing army sent tens of thousands of horses to Liaodong, and the Ming army did not need to attack, I am afraid that the pressure of logistics alone would have to drag down the Manchu Qing.All the generals nodded, and Zhao Ming continued: "There are two routes for the Qing army to supply Liaodong, one takes the Liaoxi Corridor and travels thousands of miles, and the other gets on the ship from Denglai, Shandong, and sails directly north, crossing the Bohai Strait, and arriving at Lushun and the Liaodong Peninsula. ”Listening to Zhao Ming's words, the generals seemed to understand his intentions.Guo Zhong stroked his beard and said: "Since the Liao incident, the Ming Dynasty has supplied the towns of Liaodong and Liaoxi, mainly by sea.When the Ming Dynasty was in the western Liaoning corridor, there were countless fortresses, which could be used for the transport team to rest and replenish, all of which chose the sea route, and now the Manchu Qing Dynasty wanted to go through the deserted Liaoxi, which was already deserted, and it was probably more difficult than the supply of the Ming Dynasty.In this way, most of the Qing troops would choose to take the sea route from Dengzhou to supply and reinforce the Qing army in eastern Liaodong. ”Speaking of this, Guo Zhong looked at Zhao Ming and said with a smile: "What does the marshal mean, or lure the snake out of the hole, and when the Qing army sailor transports supplies to Liaodong, look for an opportunity to annihilate the Qing army's sailor?"
”Previously, the Ming army's naval division came to Shandong, intending to fight a decisive battle with the Qing army's naval division, but the Qing army's naval division retreated in the military port and did not engage the Ming army's naval division.This made Zhao Ming's operational goal of going north fail, and now, if the Qing army increases troops and supplies Liaodong from the sea, it will definitely send a naval division to escort it, and the opportunity for the Ming army's naval division will come.Zhao Ming bowed slightly, "Not bad!"
The annihilation of the Qing army's naval division has always been the goal of this commander.However, in addition to annihilating the Qing army's naval division, Ben Shuai also has to annihilate this time, the Qing army's living force in the north!
”"Annihilate the living force of the Qing army?"
The crowd was a little puzzled.Zhao Ming pointed to the sand table and said: "As I said, it is inconvenient for the Qing army to supply outside the pass, and it needs to rely on sea transportation to meet the consumption of the Qing army in Liaodong.Ben Shuai was not in a hurry to break through Hong Chengchou, but waited for the Manchu Qing to increase troops to Liaodong, and when the Qing army reached a certain number, Ben Shuai ordered the sailors to attack and attack the supply ships of the Qing army.In this way, the Qing army in Liaodong will fall into a situation of lack of military food, and at that time, in order to complete the supply, the Manchu Qing Dynasty will definitely order the sailors to leave the port to break through the blockade of the commander, and the officers and men of our East China Sea Division will be able to take the opportunity to annihilate the Qing army's naval division in a battle, and once the Qing army's naval division is destroyed, the supply of the Qing army in Liaodong will be cut off, and tens of thousands of horses will become the marshal's bag. ”Xie Qian and the others took a breath of cool air, "This is a plan to go up to the house and draw a ladder, so that the Manchu Qing Dynasty will not only be finished with the water division, but also tens of thousands of land divisions."
Dashuai is really wise!
”Zhao Ming smiled slightly: "If you attack now, although Ben Shuai can defeat Hong Chengchou and occupy Liaodong and Shenyang, but the Qing Army's naval division and the elite soldiers in the north are still there, and he will definitely launch a counterattack, and Ben Shuai will inevitably be difficult to gain a firm foothold in Liaodong and Liaozhong, and will be restrained by the Qing army with a large number of troops and energy."
Ben Shuai first waited for the Qing army to increase troops in Liaodong, and then first destroyed the water division, and then destroyed the Qing army's elite soldiers in the north, occupying the land outside the pass, the Qing army lost the water division and tens of thousands of elite soldiers, and it must be a great businessman, and it was unable to launch a counterattack.In this way, Ben Shuai can gain a firm foothold outside the customs. ”Xie Qian and the others looked at each other, and couldn't help but admire the handsome and wise.Zhao Ming immediately waved his hand and said with a smile: "Xie Qian, Lin Qingzhi, the two of you, led 10,000 coalition troops, made a gesture of crossing the river, put pressure on the old thief Hong, and let the old thief Hong transfer troops from the pass!"
”The two generals immediately clasped their fists, "Humble and orderly!"
”Zhao Ming nodded, looked at Guo Zhong and said: "The sailor sent a sentinel ship to explore near Lushun and Dengzhou, find out the situation of the Qing army's increase in Liaodong, and be ready to block the strait at any time and cut off the Manchu supply!"
”Guo Zhong solemnly clenched his fists, "Obey orders!"
