Chapter 79

Changzhou, Changshu, Wuxi, Jingjiang!

With his hands propped up on the sand table, Zhu Mingzhong stared blankly at the four cities in front of him, his brows furrowed, these four cities were all cities around Jiangyin. Now, one of these cities must be chosen as the first target of the Loyalty.

"Among the four cities, Changzhou City is the most difficult to attack, the city is high and the wall is solid, although the main force of Changzhou garrison Qing captives is transferred to Jiangning, but its defense of the city is young and strong, still no less than 10,000 people......"

In the Loyal Army, there is no chief of staff, but as a rare "veteran" who has read books in the Loyal Army, as the commander of the left wing, he plays the role of "chief of staff" many times.

“…… As for the Jingjiang River, although its city wall is only more than two zhang, but if the army is attacked, Baide crosses the river, but the boats in the river are either not captured and burned, or they are recruited into the general's army, and there are no boats, so naturally they cannot cross the river, and this is the situation of the four cities. ”

"It doesn't matter what he does so much, when the adults were able to take Jiangyin with 1,500 brothers, our loyal battalion is now strong and strong, what's wrong with this Changzhou City, if the adults want to attack it, it's not like playing......"

As soon as Li Ziyuan's words fell, Zhang shouted on the side, as soon as he said this, there was a burst of harmony around him, after all, with the glorious past of 1,500 people seizing the city, in their opinion, there is probably no city in this world that adults can't take.

"But no, maybe as soon as we pass here, the people guarding the city over there will descend ......"

Talent......

Zhu Mingzhong's exclamation was not because of their words, but because of ...... No one is available, Li Ziyuan and Zhang are the commanders of the left and right wings of the loyal and righteous army, and the Chinese army is naturally led by Zhu Mingzhong himself, the reason why he chose the two of them is very simple, Li Ziyuan was originally a thousand generals, and it is natural for him to be the commander of the left wing, as for Zhang, when attacking Jiangyin City, as the commander, he has been leading the troops to follow closely behind him, and he has suffered several knife wounds, which can be regarded as brave, but he is limited to this, he may be very brave on the battlefield, but if he is allowed to make an idea, I'm afraid it's a bit reluctant.

No one is available, that's the reality.

Not to mention staff officers, even military generals. In the future, you should pay more attention to the people around you. Thinking like this in his heart, his eyes fell on Yu Shujie who was making a record on the side, he is from Jiangyin, not to mention that he was born as a scholar, at least he knows more about the surrounding situation.

Yu Shujie, who was originally just recording the content of the "military meeting" as a scribe, inadvertently saw the eyes of adults on him, he was stunned at first, and then lowered his eyebrows slightly, and continued to play his role as a "secretary".

"Don't go, come, tell me what you think!"

Yu Shujie, who was named by the adult, was surprised, but his heart was agitated.

"In the next thought, the way of using troops in ancient and modern times ......"

As soon as Yu Shujie, a scholar, opened his mouth and was about to make a tirade, he immediately saw the adult's eyebrows slightly locked, and immediately realized that he had "made a mistake" again. When he first became the "secretary", he, like many scholars, did not forget to write great articles when he was recording, did not quote scriptures, and his words were also extremely exaggerated. When I present the contents of the record to adult for the first time, adult reprimanded only if for a while.

According to the adults, such meetings must be recorded verbatim, without any textual embellishment. There can be no exaggeration of any words, as for the exaggeration of "once the Hongyi cannon comes out, it will erode for dozens of miles", which makes Zhu Mingzhong hate it even more, this is not a Hongyi cannon, it is clearly an atomic bomb! And what army is fast and travels thousands of miles a day. For Zhu Mingzhong, the use of this kind of "literary exaggeration" in official documents is simply dereliction of duty, but Chinese literati are simply proud of this, and even after more than 300 years, the so-called literati are still like this, without the slightest academic rigor.

And in the military, this exaggeration often leads to fatal defeats. Naturally, he will never allow his secretary to make such "literary exaggerations". As a secretary, Yu Shujie has naturally been beaten a lot in the past half a month. Even when he wrote in the record that "with this method of training, he will be able to march thousands of miles a day", he was punished by the adults and asked him to run around the city wall for a day to see if he could march thousands of miles. For a whole day and a night, Yu Shujie ran around the city, although he was not tired, but there were blood blisters under the soles of his feet, and the result was only a hundred miles of marching, since then, he no longer dared to think of any "writing", at the meeting, except for words such as "him", all of them were recorded according to their vernacular, at most they were slightly modified by those vulgar words.

The lesson of blood will always be more profound, as soon as he saw the adult's face change, Yu Shujie immediately said.

"Most of these ordinary people bully the weak with brute force, and the same is true if they want to march and fight......

Finally heard a constructive answer, nodded slightly, and Zhu Mingzhong asked again.

"Shaoxing, in your opinion, which of the four cities is weak?"

Changzhou City has the name of "Jiangnan Giant Town", plus it is the city where it is, it is by no means weak, Jingjiang, Changshu, Wuxi, the three cities are weak, and Jingjiang has the solid river risk, Changshu city wall Tengshan and built, the terrain can not be said to be dangerous, in the view of the mark, among the three cities, when Wuxi is the weakest, and its city wall is decayed, it has been washed down by rain, has not been completely rebuilt, naturally the easiest to overcome. ”

"Then in your opinion, our army should attack Wuxi?"

As soon as Zhu Mingzhong's words fell, Li Ziyuan, who saw that he was being ignored, immediately objected to the side.

"My lord, I don't think it's okay to mark it!"

"Oh?"

Looking at Li Ziyuan, Zhu Mingzhong didn't expect that he would actually raise objections.

"Why not?"

The reason why Li Ziyuan would dissuade him was because he knew that Yu Shujie's talent and learning far surpassed him, and he was afraid that only this "secretary" in the loyal army could threaten his status in the army. It is precisely because of this that he hurriedly suppressed Yu Shujie to prevent him from being an adult. When he spoke up, he didn't even think of a reason, it was purely based on personal sensitivity, which would be asked by an adult, Li Ziyuan was not nervous, and with a breather, he found a suitable reason.

"My lord, I think that the general appointed the Lord to recruit Jiangnan, not to raise food for the army, but to appease the rear of the army, Wuxi is close to Taihu Lake away from the Yangtze River, although it is the rear of the army, but it is not urgent, it wants to enter the river, must pass through Jiangyin, and Changshu, although it is dozens of miles away from the river, but its city gate is near the river, its terrain is almost to the mouth of the river, if you look at the rear of appeasement, our army should attack Changshu, not Wuxi......"

Li Ziyuan's suggestion made Zhu Mingzhong's eyebrows furrow, in this first military combat meeting, their suggestion made Zhu Mingzhong feel as if he had learned something, and his eyes were staring at the sand table.

Wuxi or Changshu ......

But no matter which city you go to, you have to solve a problem first, how to go on an expedition if the interior is not quiet......

Thinking like this in his heart, the corners of Zhu Mingzhong's lips raised, and he sneered in his heart.

It's time to kill......
