Shi Kefa smiled when he heard this, and stroked his beard, "In the opinion of this official, you can level Liao in three years, and you can set the north in five years!" ”

Five years in the north?

How does this sound so familiar? Huang Degong was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that this was not a cow that Yuan Chonghuan had bragged about? He looked at Shi Kefa sympathetically, and said in his heart: His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is a wise lord, and the big words of Dingbei in five years can't be nonsense!

Also, What does three years of Pingliao mean? Is it five years after Dingbei, plus three more years of Pingliao?

Shi Kefa glanced at Huang Degong and was confident: "This official already has a three-year Pingliao and five-year Dingbei belly case, this time I will tell you, and you will also help the staff." ”

Although he, the governor of the Seven Provinces, is empty, he is still conscientiously pondering the great cause of the Northern Expedition and the Qing Dynasty these days. And he also has a group of staff members who are familiar with the art of war by his side to help him figure it out together. I really figured out a strategy for the Northern Expedition that looks pretty good!

Governor Shi showed a somewhat smug smile and said with a smile: "This official has looked through the annals of history these days and found that since ancient times, it has been difficult from the south to the north, and from the north to the south. ”

Do you still need to look at the annals of history?

The big warlords present were a little disappointed - the one who succeeded in Nanping and North was Zhu Yuanzhang, the Taizu of this dynasty! Everyone else has failed......

Shi Kefa said: "And those in the south of Beiping can be divided into those who start in the northwest, those who start in Zhongzhou, those who start in the northeast, and those who start in the north and south of the desert." Among them, those who started in the northwest were Qin to destroy Chu, Sui to destroy Chen, Tang to destroy Liang, and the Han Dynasty was also the first to take Guanzhong, and there was the world. Those who started in Zhongzhou and have the world are the Western Jin Dynasty and Zhao Song Dynasty. There is no one who started in the northeast and leveled the world, but those who set the Central Plains have the Jin Dynasty and the current Dongyu, and the Khitan also once entered the Central Plains. And the one who started in the north and south of the desert is Meng Yuan.

It is not difficult to find that before the five dynasties, most of them were based on the northwest Guanzhong and had the world. And five generations later, there is Zhongzhou and the same world. After the overthrow of the Northern Song Dynasty, the Northeast, Mobei, and Jiangnan could all become the fundamental places to take over the world. Zhongzhou and the northwest are no longer the hometowns of emperors!

Nowadays, Donglu occupies the Northeast Liao Land and the Mobei and Southern Grasslands, and there are two of the three imperial hometowns. And I only have one place in Jiangnan, so I am at a disadvantage.

And if we want to reverse the unfavorability, we should first calm Liao, and then settle the north...... We should cross the sea to conquer Liao! The troops can be divided into two routes, all the way to Jinzhou and Fuzhou; All the way from the sea to the mountains and seas! After the whole Liao is pacified, then wave the army into the customs and take Yanyun directly! ”

Yes! This is military statistics!

Shi Kefa, a jinshi, seems to have real talent and real learning!

Everyone will say that Beiping is easy in the south, and it is difficult in the south and north. But has anyone really analyzed this issue carefully? Shi Kefa's analysis makes the situation very clear. Now the key to the south of Beiping is no longer Guanzhong and the Central Plains...... It is the two pieces of desert north, desert south and Liaodi.

After the Song Dynasty, troops were sent from Liaodi, and there were three times in history when they entered the Central Plains, one of which did not stand firm.

And sending troops from the north and south of the desert to dominate the world is one time.

It is also a time to start in the south of the Yangtze River and have the world.

We already have Jiangnan in the Ming Dynasty, so let's take the northeast first, and then enter from Shanhaiguan, and then start the northern expedition from the southeast, and attack the north and south, this should be easy, right?

Moreover, the Ming army can also take advantage of sea supremacy to directly attack Shanhaiguan...... Shanhaiguan is 700 miles away from Shengjing and 700 miles away from Beijing. Therefore, whether the Qing army sent troops from Beijing or Shengjing, it had to drag a logistics line of 700 miles!

As long as you have actually commanded a large army to fight, you will know how much the consumption of the 700-mile land logistics line is!

If it is transported by horse-drawn carriage, the delivery rate of grain for 700 miles (to leave the horse material for the return journey) is about 30%.

That is, 10,000 stone was transported, and the grain transported to the front-line soldiers was only 3,000 stone at most...... This is still the ideal data that can be achieved without any interception by the enemy, and if the transport personnel are sufficiently responsible.

On the side of the Ming army, you can use water transportation to achieve a high delivery rate - as long as the ship does not capsize, the delivery rate can reach more than ninety percent!

Just by comparing the delivery rate, the Ming army can be invincible...... With the combat effectiveness of the model division of the new army, not to mention defeating the same number of Qing troops, it is always okay to have a draw and then sit down and confront, right?

You must know that there are not many horses in the model army, and the Eight Banners of the Qing army are casually one person and two horses!

Therefore, once the two armies confronted each other in the area of Shanhaiguan, the logistical pressure of the Qing army was enough to make Dolgon vomit blood......

Now Huang Degong is convinced!

Although it is on paper, Shi Kefa talks about it very reasonably!

"Supervisor," Huang Degong said convincingly, "It's feasible to level Liao in the past three years and set the north in five years!" Let's join forces to play to the prince, put forward this policy, and ask the prince to send a new army to cross the sea to conquer Liao after ascending the throne, and we will send troops to take the Central Plains and the North Straight, which will make it difficult for Dolgon to take care of each other! ”

"According to what Huang Zongrong said, we will play it jointly!"

Shi Kefa was also quite proud, his eyes slowly swept over the lobby, and he took in the faces full of admiration.

Now it depends on whether Zhu Cihong is a Mingjun or not? If he really looked as wise, he would have taken this suggestion.

......

"Ji Yushi, the official's mansion is really a bit shabby, and the hospitality is not good, please ask Haihan to ......"

Just when Shi Kefa was "conspiring" with the warlords of Shandong and Huaibei, Gao Jie was receiving Shandong Provincial Inspector Yu Shi Jikun at the Yunlongshan General's Mansion outside Xuzhou City.

The Yunlongshan General's Mansion was originally a wealthy merchant's villa, which was washed by the invading Qing army, so it was not very luxurious and rich. After Gao Jie got here, he felt that the surrounding environment was good, the terrain was high, and he was not afraid of the flooding of the Yellow River, so he used it as a general's mansion for himself.

Ji Kun entered the mansion with him, entered the middle hall, looked around, and said with a smile: "Very good, there are hundreds of mansions that Xia Guan has entered and exited in the past two years, and this place can be ranked in the top twenty miles." ”

"Hehe......" Gao Jie smiled awkwardly. Can the mansion where King Kiyama came and went be a good place? Most of them are the mansions of corrupt officials who have been found out! How did he compare his mansion to those mansions?

Could it be ......

The more Gao Jie thought about it, the more scared he became!

He wanted to know that Zhu Cihong would send King Ji Yan to investigate this matter, and he would not play the matter of Zhu Cihuan's possible arrival in Huang Degong's jurisdiction...... That's King Jiyan! Although he probably won't investigate the corruption of officers, there may be exceptions!

And if he doesn't investigate, it doesn't mean that he can't expose it!

Gao Jie has been so greedy in the past two years, can he prevent King Ji Yan from exposing it?

was apprehensive in his heart, but he was not timid at all, and politely invited Ji Kun into the middle hall.

When the maids of the General's Mansion served refreshments, Gao Jie sent all the subordinates away, and let one of his henchmen stay outside, not allowing the idle people to approach.

Ji Kun understands that this is a confidential report!

"Goshi, look at this!" Gao Jie took out an envelope at this time and handed it to Ji Kun with both hands.

Ji Kun took the envelope, took a look, and found that the words "Mr. Gao Rong personally opened" and "Master of Ceremonies and Supervisor Gao" were written on it.

Of course, Gao Zongrong is Gao Jie, and the celebrant is Gao ...... Could it be Gao Yushun?

"This is the handwriting of the High Duke!" Gao Jie said with certainty, "The official and he are both surnamed Gao, and they have recognized their own family and have always exchanged letters." ”

In the early years, the military attaches of the Ming army were all eunuchs, and there were many people who recognized their godfathers, and Gao Jie, of course, was no exception, and wanted to recognize Gao Yushun as his father, but Gao Yushun did not accept it, only recognized his own family, and his brothers were commensurate.

Ji Kun took out the letter inside the envelope, unfolded it and looked at the contents, and was immediately shocked.

"What? This Da Jue actually took Yuan Guifei and the five princes to Huang Degong, and he also rebelled with Huang Degong and Shi Kefa, and served the five princes as the main ......" Ji Kun couldn't believe it, "It's really fake?" ”

Gao Jie lowered his voice: "It's a letter from the Duke of Gao...... I have here the letter he sent earlier, so you can see it by comparison! ”

Ji Kun still shook his head: "Does he want to kill the fifth prince?" In addition, his mind is not clear, are Huang Degong and Shi Kefa fools? ”
