Han’s Son is Not a Slave

Zhou Shixiang got up and walked to the map, his right index finger landed on the border of Hunan with Guangxi, and he said to the generals in an unquestionable tone: "This time, King Qin, this commander did not intend to enter Yunnan or Guizhou, but Hunan. !"

Entering Hunan? !

The generals were stunned by Zhou Shixiang's decision. Except for a few people, the rest did not know about entering Hunan, so they all looked at the map in confusion, and everyone had a question in their minds: How did King Qin go to Hunan so diligently? already?

Li Guangbo, the uncle of Qingfeng, reacted and asked, "The holy car is in Yunnan, and the commander called me and other Qin Wangs to enter Yunnan. Why did you go back to Hunan?"

What Li Guangbo actually wanted to ask was that you, a scholar, said in Guangdong that he would take us to King Qin in Yunnan. Everyone believed you and responded to you. Now that Guangxi has won it, you don’t immediately take us to Yunnan to rescue the driver, but instead run away. What are you thinking about going to Hunan, which is irrelevant? Do you really want to be a diligent king? Could it be that even the Governor and Governor Zhang are right? You, a scholar, have no intention of King Qin at all, and you just want to use this name to win people's hearts and incorporate us? Otherwise, why do you do this!

"How can you be a diligent king in Xiangxiang? Please Xingping show it!" Zhou Tengfeng from Haibei Road asked impolitely.

Zhang Pingbo Zhou Jintang and other generals in the ninth town also changed their expressions, and they were dissatisfied with Zhou Shixiang's decision to not enter Yunnan but instead enter Hunan. Deployment is puzzled and confused. Tie Yi, Suna and the others were unhappy with the attitude of the generals in Ninth Town, but the commander didn't say anything, and they couldn't blame anything.

"Who said that Xiangxiang is no longer the King of Diligence?"

Zhao Sihai glanced at Zhou Shixiang, took a step forward, and said to the generals in a deep voice, "All the food and grass for the troops entering Yunnan and Qing Dynasties are transported from Guiyang, and the food and grass from Guiyang are transported from Hunan. The military ration road." Speaking of this, he paused, and then said: "You must all know that this time the Qing army entered Yunnan on a large scale, and the food, grass and lakes and vast areas needed cannot be supplied at all. Knowing that our army has entered Hunan, in order to ensure that the food supply is not lost, Duny will definitely draw troops to the north, so that the pressure on Yunnan will naturally be relieved. What is the difference between this strategy and the Qin King entering Yunnan? It can also contain a large number of Qing troops. Is it?"

Zhou Tengfeng, Li Guangbo and others were speechless for a while, but what Zhao Sihai said was true. The food supplied by the Qing court to the Qing army in the southwest all came from the southeast, and the food from the southeast was transported from Hunan to Guiyang, and then from Guiyang to Yunnan. The Taiping army suddenly attacked Hunan, and it was bound to cut off the supply of the Qing army. In order to protect the food, Doni will definitely send the army north to attack the Taiping army, which is no different from the Taiping army entering Yunnan directly. The fundamental purpose of both is to contain the Qing army and reduce the pressure on the king of Jin. As long as this goal can be achieved, no one can say that Zhou Shixiang was not diligent and diligent.

Weiyuan Hou Guo Dengdi raised a question. He said: "Since the Qing army's food route is going through Hunan to Guiyang, why didn't the commander fight Guiyang directly, but instead go north to fight Hunan?"

"Yes, if you want to cut off his food supply, why don't you go directly to Guizhou to fight Guiyang, and go around to Hunan for what?" Li Guangbo also thought of this, and couldn't help shouting.

Zhao Sihai explained: "Xian Guoan has led the army back, and the Qing army in Guizhou has been prepared for a long time. If they really want to fight Guiyang, this road will be a tough battle, not to mention whether we can reach the city of Guiyang, let's talk about this road. The delay, I am afraid that the King of Jin can't stand it. So we don't need to fight this kind of dull battle. On the contrary, it is different in Hunan. Most of the main forces of the Qing army stationed in Hunan were taken to Yunnan by Hong Chengchou, and the rest They are all second- and third-rate battalions. Our army really rushed over. These battalions are simply vulnerable. We can quickly achieve the goal of cutting off the food route of the Qing army. Besides, the road to Hunan is comparable to the road to Guizhou. Much better."

Zhao Sihai spoke, and Zhao Ziqiang smiled there: "Zhao Junbu's words are reasonable, those inexperienced Qing soldiers in Hunan, I can take down the fifth town." Hearing this, Suna couldn't help but glance at him, his eyes were obviously different. convinced. Tie Yi smiled and said nothing, secretly asking Zhao Ziqiang didn't he understand just now, the commander is going to let you pretend to attack Guizhou to lure Guoan down, how could he even take you five towns to Hunan. Those miscellaneous soldiers in Hunan won't bother your fifth town, and my second town will be able to wipe them all out with a raise of my hand.

Zhou Tengfeng and Li Guangbo were both happy and unhappy when they heard Zhao Ziqiang's rhetoric about fighting the Qing army in Hunan. They are happy that such a powerful soldier is their friendly army, but they are unhappy that Ninth Town does not have the strength to dare to fight Hunan.

Although they are worried about the safety of the sacred car in Yunnan, Zhou, Li and others also know that what Zhao Sihai said is true. From the perspective of difficulty, it is definitely easier to fight Hunan than Guizhou, and the two can achieve the same effect. The impact of the situation is also average, so they have no reason to object. Furthermore, this strategy was formulated by Zhou Shixiang himself, and it would be useless for them to oppose it. If they really don't agree to fight Hunan, Zhou Shixiang will be able to clean them up. And to tell the truth, don't look at them yelling fierce, but they really want to go all the way to bite the hard bones of Guizhou, even if Zhou Shixiang treats them equally and doesn't use them as cannon fodder, they think they don't have the strength.

After the Weiyuan Hou Guo Dengdi thought about the gains and losses of going to Hunan, he asked Zhou Shixiang and said, "Is the commander going north to attack Quanzhou and Yongzhou, and then enter Changsha, and then take Hunan?"

"No, Ben Shuai doesn't have that much appetite."

Zhou Shixiang shook his head, pointed to the border between Hunan and Guizhou on the map and said to the generals: "I intend to go Huaiyuan to take Jingzhou and Yuanzhou two prefectures, both of which are the main road from Hunan to Guizhou. The Qing army's food route will be cut off. Not only that, but the commander will completely block the two main roads in and out of Guizhou, so that the Qing army from Yungui, Guizhou cannot go north to Hunan. The same is true here in Guangxi, relying on Liuzhou and Guilin, to block Guizhou. On the border of Guizhou, in this way, if the Qing army wants to leave Yungui, the only way to go to Hanzhong is Sichuan, and they can only be trapped in Yungui in the short term."

"The commander wants to trap the Qing army in Yungui?!"

All the generals were taken aback by Zhou Shixiang's deployment~www.NovelMTL.com~ This idea is really bold, can we do it?

"The Liuzhou side wants to lure Guoan down, and the commander only takes a few soldiers north to Hunan. How can he seal the border between Hunan and Guizhou?"

It's not that Guo Dengdi doesn't believe in the combat effectiveness of the Taiping Army. There is absolutely no problem with Zhou Shixiang leading his troops north to take Hunan. The problem is that the Qing army in Hunan is nothing to worry about, but the hundreds of thousands of Qing troops in Yunnan and Guizhou will watch your Taiping army helplessly. Blocked their way north? The Qing army is really going to go north in a big way, can these 20,000 to 30,000 troops really stop them?

"Our troops and horses are limited. It is naturally difficult for me, the Taiping Army, to block the borders of Hunan, Guizhou and Guizhou at the same time, but don't forget that there are my troops in Daming here. If we can get them to Hunan, Then of course there is no need to worry about the issue of insufficient troops."

Zhou Shixiang's finger suddenly moved to the Shizhouwei area above the Yongshun Military and Civil Affairs Department in the north of Yuanzhou.

Guo Deng was stunned for the first time, and immediately blurted out, "Thirteen families in Kuidong?!" (To be continued.)
