Chapter 62: Roaring
Chen Xin nodded in understanding, and carefully scratched his fingers on the sand table. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
After a while, he asked again, "What about the Ming Kingdom, what is the situation on their side now?"
I remember that you seem to have said just now that although the Ming Kingdom took the initiative to go forward and build a fortress this time, it was not ready for war, is that so? ”
The person who answered Chen Xin was also the director of the Second Bureau of the General Bureau of Foreign Intelligence (Ming Guo direction).
There was an incredible taste in his tone, and he kept exclaiming and said, "Your Majesty, although it is incredible, it seems that this is indeed the case.
This time, it was the Ming side that made the first move, but their preparation was very insufficient, and so far, they have not dropped a second chess piece.
In the area near Dalinghe City, there are only about 10,000 Ming troops of more than 10,000 people, and this number still does not remove the imaginary part of the army that eats empty salaries.
In addition, there were some laborers who built the city in the Dalinghe area, and merchants who transported goods from all over the country, and these people added up to about 7 or 8,000 people, and because of the mobility of merchants and transport personnel, this figure cannot be calculated too accurately.
As for other matters, such as preparations such as military transfers and material gatherings, our undercover personnel did not get any relevant information from the Ming side at all.
It was as if they didn't have any plans at all. It's incredible. ”
Chen Xin frowned and pondered, he understood very well the meaning of the words of the Second Director of the General Bureau of Foreign Intelligence, he did not mean that the agents of the Kingdom lurking in the Ming Kingdom could not get the news.
With the current ability of the Ming Kingdom to keep information secret, even if he sends some businessmen or any scholar, he can buy the corresponding information from a large number of servants, masters and others in the yamen at all levels in an open and honest manner by purchasing the Di Bao and the like.
What's more, most of the agents of the kingdom lurking in the Ming Kingdom were officials who successfully infiltrated the two officialdoms of the Ming Dynasty through imperial examinations and bribery, and they had already become personnel in the Ming Dynasty system, and it was impossible not to get internal information.
There is only one reason why no one in the officialdom can get relevant information, that is, the Ming side has not made preparations for this at all.
Pinching his eyebrows with his hand, looking at the huge country on the side wall, which included the entire map of Asia, Chen Xin was really a little speechless.
Since the Ming State provoked the incident and made a military move to move the defense line forward and threaten the direction of Houjin, why didn't the Ming Dynasty make a relevant plan for the strong counterattack of Houjin next?
Could it be that today, decades after the war between the Ming Dynasty and the Houjin began, they still naively thought that the Houjin would allow the Ming army to open up a new fortress on the original defense line that had been destroyed by them, without counterattacking accordingly?
Chen Xin said helplessly, "Find a way for us to lurk in the Ming Dynasty's agents, and without exposing themselves, we will try our best to reveal the relevant information about Houjin and the war preparations to the Ming Kingdom."
As long as it is handled well and secretively, maybe our agents can still get some benefits from the direction of Daming.
Your National Security Council is an expert in this regard, so you can figure it out for yourself and play freely, and I will not interfere indiscriminately.
Although it may not have any effect, it can weaken the power of Houjin a little and reduce the casualties of the Han people a little, even if our hard work is not in vain. ”
"Yes."
After talking about the affairs of the Ming Kingdom, Chen Xin raised his head and said with a cruel smile, "Everyone, the previous battles between the Ming Kingdom and the Later Jin Dynasty have shown that the current corrupt army of the Ming Dynasty is unreliable, so next, we need to appear."
Let's take a look at what the kingdom can gain from this battle that will soon take place.
First of all, let's discuss, can we launch a surprise attack on the hinterland of the Houjin army while they are on the march, and destroy the Houjin's artillery manufacturing capacity and grain reserves, so as to achieve the effect of weakening the Houjin's war potential?
Even, come to a full-scale war and occupy the capital of Houjin? Can this be achieved?
We need to discuss it together, and if you have anything you need to know, you can ask the National Security Council.
Defense Department, you ・・・・・・ over there."
"My king, I'm really sorry, I need to interrupt you, I'm afraid this suggestion of yours will not work. The theme of today's meeting also needs to be changed. ”
As soon as Chen Xin's idea was spoken, and before he could finish his complete sentence, he was vetoed by the director of the Military Intelligence Bureau under the National Security Council.
"Your Majesty, I'm afraid this suggestion of yours is not working, according to the current military guidelines of our army tailored according to the kingdom's military strength last year, before our army's military strength develops to a certain extent, the kingdom needs to avoid fighting on two fronts as much as possible."
Chen Xin was a little puzzled and said, "Yes, this operational principle was formulated by us together.
But what do you mean now?
Is there a crisis elsewhere in the kingdom?
Is it an internal rebellion, or is it an invasion from outside?
Why haven't I received any reports on this?
Not even the slightest sign of it. ”
The director of the Military Intelligence Bureau stood there respectfully, bowed his head and said ashamedly, "I'm sorry, Your Majesty, please take another look at this report from the front line." ”
As he spoke, he handed Chen Xin a folder, "This is just delivered, so I haven't had time to report it yet." ”
The information was not long, only a few words, and after reading it, Chen Xin muttered, "Isn't Huang Taiji able to get something new?" Why do they make Sukh Saha and Ann Bu masturbate me every time they act?
However, yes, the trick is no longer new, as long as it works. ”
After complaining, Chen Xin noticed that something was wrong, picked up the report he had placed on the table, reopened the folder, and looked at the number of enemies recorded on it.
He slammed the folder on the table and roared, "Hell, these guys were completely crippled by us last year, and they didn't dare to set foot in the city for a whole year.
Now, how did you run out of 80,000 troops all at once?
80,000 people, that's 80,000 people, not 80,000 pieces of wood.
Which of you will explain why an enemy, who had been largely crippled, was able to suddenly pull out a team of 80,000 men again?
The enemy has been crippled by us, and in this case, such a large-scale military movement cannot be completed in a month or two.
If you want to train a qualified cold-weapon soldier, it will take at least a year or more before you can initially put it into combat.
Why haven't I ever received a report on this? Are our intelligence services blind? Have all the reconnaissance units of our army gone to sleep lately? ”
