Chapter 492 Yuan Chonghuan who wants to do big things

Liaodong.

Jinzhou, Governor's Office.

Yuan Chonghuan was standing in front of the sand table, thinking about what to do. On the 14th, he received news that the Donglu had crossed the Liaohe River first, and this time, he was really coming in full force.

The generals and officials and assistants were also surrounding the sand table and discussing what to do now. This tradition of discussing countermeasures around the sand table can be regarded as circulating from the emperor. Since the emperor took the lead, the people below will naturally follow suit.

Now this way of discussion is no longer as particular as before. The atmosphere is much warmer and harmonious than before. Before, they were all determined according to the grade, and then the person in front said, and the person in the future said, "It is rigid and dull." Even if what the person in front said is wrong or has a problem, it is difficult for the person in the future to refute due to the grade and face. Many useful suggestions have been lost in vain. It is really constructive and difficult to adopt. Now this is different, and the person in charge does not care.

, The people below are just talking about it, even if your idea is whimsical, it doesn't matter. Just treat it as a joke, and the listeners won't care. If there are really some good suggestions, others don't mind adopting them and integrating them into their own strategies. When you talk about the important things, you can express your ideas and strategies. Whoever says something reasonable will be recorded. If you win with this strategy in the future, it will be beneficial to you.

Although Yuan Chonghuan had just returned, Jinning's defense line had already been prepared. To the north of Jinzhou, the big and small siege people had already withdrawn. Looking back on the emperor's predictions, recalling the emperor's teachings and training for himself, Yuan Chonghuan was both at peace, anxious, and even more anxious.

The reason is that things are as expected by the emperor. This year is indeed a year of decisive battle with the Donglu. Sooner or later, there will be a big battle. For some purposes, the Donglu will send troops in advance. Now that we have received news that the Donglu is coming to him, Yuan Chonghuan's heart has calmed down and things are not as expected.

The reason for anxiety is that he still does not have a specific strategy to deal with the Donglu. Now there is only a big strategy arranged by the emperor. In terms of Jinning and Liaodong Governor Yuan Chonghuan, he has no unique insights. In other words, if this continues, he will at most win the same victory as last time. According to the emperor's arrangement, winning is also at a strategic level. It has nothing to do with Yuan Chonghuan. Yuan Chonghuan only needs to go big.

Once he hid in the city, with the grenade and the Folang machine, the Donglu would never be able to conquer Jinzhou. However, Yuan Chonghuan did not want to be "unknown" like this, and did not want to keep relying on hiding in the city to achieve "victory". Even if others did not say such victory, Yuan Chonghuan felt that he had no face to see others. Yuan Chonghuan, who had always claimed to be the mainstay of the Ming Dynasty, was determined to show his talents and create his own world. Yuan Chonghuan no longer wanted to live the life of being forced by the Donglu in Jinzhou City and dared not move.

The reason for the panic was that Yuan Chonghuan did not want to be forced into Jinzhou City, and wanted to go out to compete with the Donglu. But Yuan Chonghuan also knew that his troops were fighting against the Donglu in the wild. If they wanted to win, it was basically impossible. Once they went out, they would be very likely to be dumplings by the Donglu. The Donglu was afraid and waited for him to go out. Once they thought of his failure in the field, which would affect the emperor's grand strategy and various possible defeat scenes made Yuan Chonghuan, who was thinking of leaving the city to fight with the Donglu, feel panic.

The atmosphere of discussion in this war room was very warm. Generals and officials and officials discussed enthusiastically, saliva flying everywhere, and the braziers around set off the atmosphere.

"Everyone, please be quiet..." Yuan Chonghuan stood there for a long time, concentrating on his mind for a long time, sighed a long time, and said. Looking at Yuan Chonghuan's eyebrows, it seemed that there was still no progress. His eyebrows were frowning high, and his eyes were flashing with reluctance.

The officials from all over the world who were discussing heatedly immediately stopped, stood in position, and waited for Yuan Chonghuan to speak.

"The Tartar vanguard had already crossed the Liaohe River on the 14th. What do you think about the war in front of you? What countermeasures do you have?" Yuan Chonghuan asked. Yuan Chonghuan was anxious and uneasy, and even with doubts on his face.

"Fu Tai, I think that your Majesty has already arranged everything. As long as we do as per Your Majesty's arrangement, we will naturally have no worries..." a general said immediately.

Everyone nodded. This is true. Judging from the results of the last war, the emperor still has a few tricks. Now, he will fight according to the emperor's arrangements, so there is no problem.

Not only everyone nodded, but even Yuan Chonghuan kept nodding. According to the emperor's style of play, he would definitely win. However, Yuan Chonghuan did not want to be so frustrated all the time. He won the victory by hiding in the city. The reputation of this shrunk turtle is not nice. Yuan Chonghuan thought that he could compete with the Donglu in the wild.

"Futai, I thought that we had already predicted the Tartars' attack this time, and had already made sufficient preparations. There was no need to be afraid of him. After the Tartars suffered enough in our Jinzhou, they would naturally leave. There was nothing wrong with it. This year's war was already in the battle." A general immediately said carelessly, and had already predicted the Tartars and had already made sufficient preparations. Everyone who had been mentally prepared did not care about the arrival of the Donglu. Now there are Folang machines, red barbarian cannons, and grenades. If the Donglu can attack the city, unless they can fly.

The general's words were immediately approved by many people. In this war room, there was a burst of relaxed laughter. He waited for the enemy to attack in Jinzhou, and then waited for victory to arrive. Many generals particularly liked this kind of battle.

Yuan Chonghuan sighed. Now, the generals and generals in Jinzhou all hold this kind of argument, which is very different from his ideals. I am very distressed!

"How have the big and small sieges in the north of Jinzhou City retreated?" Yuan Chonghuan sighed. His thoughts might be too different from ordinary people. Everyone thought differently from him. Yuan Chonghuan, who had no clue, could only ask casually. In fact, these sieges had already withdrawn.

"When they returned to Futai, those encirclements had already withdrawn. Now our Jinzhou can be regarded as the forefront..." Zu Dashou replied immediately.

"Oh, what about the south of our Jinzhou? How have the surrounds all the big and small? " Yuan Chonghuan asked randomly in a mess and had no clue.

"When I returned to Futai, all the big and small sieges have also retreated. Now, from Jinzhou to Ningyuan, there are only Songshan, and there are still people in Daxing with a few castles." Zu Dashou said immediately, looking at Yuan Chonghuan strangely. Don't Yuan Futai know about these?

"Well!" Yuan Chonghuan responded in dismay. Now, relying on grenades and furnishing machines, the defensive ability of these small forts has increased greatly. Therefore, many small forts have been rebuilt. This time, the Donglu came and the too small forts were withdrawn. A few slightly larger forts were left, such as Songshan, Daxing, Xingshan, etc. These were all used to deal with the Donglu. According to the estimates of the General Staff, there are no 20,000 or 30,000 people in the Donglu who defended them. If you want to conquer, you will not be able to surround them. If you want to capture them, you will risk several times of casualties.

"The Tartars came to attack this time and attacked the city forcibly. I am afraid that he would not have the courage anymore. Your Majesty predicted that it would be nothing more than finding a city to surround him, then surrounding some support, and forcing me to fight with him in the Ming Dynasty." Yuan Chonghuan said lightly.

Everyone said it was.

"... Jinzhou is a big city, and it is estimated that the Tatars will not surround it. Ningyuan and Daxing Fort are deep in the hinterland, and the Donglu probably will not surround it. That is, Songshan and Xingshan are more likely to be surrounded. Compared with these two, Songshan is higher, so I think that the Tatars' chances of encircling Songshan this time..." Yuan Chonghuan had something in his mind, and he was mindless and said, "The big strategy has, but Yuan Chonghuan's tactical strategy has not.

Everyone listened.

Yuan Chonghuan was talking headlessly, and a captain came in outside to report.

"Report..." The captain gasped heavily.

"..." Yuan Chonghuan, who had been thinking about fighting with Donglu in the field and doing a great job, and was fighting in the wild, stopped and muttered to himself and looked out the door.

"What's the matter?" Yuan Chonghuan asked.

"Sir, I just discovered a spy of Tartar twenty miles north of the city." The captain came in and said gasping.

This news surprised everyone present, it was coming too quickly.

"So fast!..." Yuan Chonghuan was also surprised, a little surprised that the Donglu came too quickly.

"Is it true?" Yuan Chonghuan suddenly had an inspiration after hearing the captain's words, as if he had captured something. The thing he wanted most seemed to have a little look and asked immediately.

"Sir, it's absolutely right, it's undoubtedly a spy of the Tartars." The captain replied in a sure tone.

"How many people are there?" The flash of inspiration in Yuan Chonghuan's mind became clearer, and the various troubles and worries in his heart gradually merged together with the flash of inspiration.

"Sir, there are about twenty cavalrymen. I guess they are here to attack the outpost, and there must be a large group of people behind them." The captain said immediately, and also said his guess.

"Well, thank you for your hard work, go and have a rest first." Yuan Chonghuan suddenly heard the captain's reminder that there was a spy! His mind was already clear and he found traces in the vast thoughts and explorations.

Spy? This word made Yuan Chonghuan suddenly understand a lot. Isn’t Donglu coming this time just a siege? Isn’t it just a siege? Isn’t it just a siege? So, when are there reinforcements, how many reinforcements went, and so on, do you have to rely on spies to find out the news? Without this news, Donglu is blind and deaf. Even if he sieges surrounded the city, so what? If Donglu can cut off the eyes and ears of the Donglu, that is, all his spies will be destroyed, then Donglu will not know when there will be reinforcements and how many reinforcements are. Yes, by the way, it is the battlefield fog that the emperor often talks about. If Donglu can cover the eyes and ears of the Donglu, then Donglu is afraid that he will not even be at siege the city, and he must always beware of his reinforcements...

Thinking of this, Yuan Chonghuan's mind was clear. The things he had been thinking about for a long time now finally got something. Yuan Chonghuan immediately took out a few pieces of paper, covered a city on the sand table, and left the city alone. In this way, the city around the sand table was covered with white paper, and it was covered in white.

"...I understand, I understand... Your Majesty is indeed wise, indeed wise!" Yuan Chonghuan looked at the situation on the sand table crazy, and muttered alone with a smile.

Everyone looked at the crazy governor in surprise, wondering what this Lord Yuan was going to do.

"Your Majesty is really not to deceive me. It is indeed a good method, a good method..." Yuan Chonghuan ended his madness and began to say with confidence.

"Futai, is this?" Zu Dashou finally couldn't help but ask.

"Hehehe, the battlefield fog, the battlefield fog! Why did I forget this?..." Yuan Chonghuan explained with a smile.

Everyone looked at the fog on the battlefield? I have heard of it. However, the generals here have their own set of understandings and ideas about fighting. It is impossible to have a new term, and they will have an understanding and their cognition will immediately change drastically.

"...Please see, if the Tartars surrounded Songshan, then according to the Tartars' vision, they would definitely have to wait for our Ming Dynasty's reinforcements. What they did was to dream of surrounding and attacking support. If we wanted to surrounding and attacking support, we must know the direction of Jinning, how many soldiers we sent, and when we arrived in a certain place. If the Tartars didn't know these, there would be no way to talk about it..." Yuan Chonghuan changed his confusion and panic just now, and said with confidence.

Everyone looked at their governor for no reason. What's wrong with this? However, everyone didn't think anything was wrong about their own siege and nodded.

"...To know these news, we must send spies, countless spies... If we can cover the surrounding area of ​​Songshan with white paper, that is, if all the spies sprinkled by the Tartars near Songshan can be pulled out, then the Tartars are blind and deaf, just like the sand table. They cannot see or hear the situation outside Songshan. Do you understand the meaning of this stroking the platform?" Yuan Chonghuan smiled and said with confidence. From the confusion and panic that had been around for a long time, he finally found a place to use martial arts.

"What do you mean by sir?" Zu Dashou seemed to understand something, but he didn't say it out loud, and then asked Yuan Chonghuan.

Many generals and officials still looked confused and looked at Yuan Chonghuan.

"... The captain mentioned the spy just now, and I suddenly remembered that His Majesty often said that the battlefield fog is the eyes and ears on the battlefield! Without eyes and ears, you don't want to know what happened on the battlefield fog is covered by the battlefield fog. Therefore, we only need to find a way to destroy the spy of the Tartars. The Tartars cannot figure out our reality and reality, and they cannot figure out which direction, how many troops we sent, and when to send troops, so the Tartars are afraid that they will not even sleep peacefully, and this besieged city will not be able to surround us. The situation may be more beneficial to our Ming Dynasty..." Yuan Chonghuan said confidently.

Until now, he finally found a good way to fight with the Eastern Barbarians, which was to find trouble for the Tartar spies. When the Tartars besieged the city, they would do everything possible to kill all the Tartars spies, so that the Tartars who could not see the surrounding situation would have doubts and panic. If they did some tricks, they would be afraid that the Tartars would not even dare to siege the city.

"My lord, I finally understand a little. Do you want to kill the spies of the Tartars?" Zu Dashou asked.

"Yes, I guess that the Donglu came this time and he would definitely be besieged the city. It is unlikely that he would be surrounded by Jinzhou. It is possible that Songshan Fort and Xingshan, a small city, will be surrounded by Songshan Fort and Xingshan. When the Donglu besieged the city, he will definitely wait for our Jinning reinforcements to rescue him. But we are constantly defeating the spies of the Tartars. Guess what will happen to the Tartars?" Yuan Chonghuan asked his generals and officials with a smile. His confused mind and confused thinking have finally been enlightened. His thinking and vision in the face of war, the future has finally become clear.

When everyone heard this question, they started to think about it.

"If the Tartars have no spies, I am afraid they will not be able to sleep well. However, sir, please forgive me for being too talkative. If you want to lose the spies of the Tartars, it is probably not easy to deal with!"

"I'm afraid it's impossible to go back to Futai. The Tartars will definitely send additional spies..."

Another answer immediately.

"Hahahaha..." Yuan Chonghuan burst into laughter.

Everyone looked at Yuan Chonghuan in surprise.

"Fuyu obeys the order!" Yuan Chonghuan laughed loudly, and had already figured out a lot of things. He immediately ordered, thinking about what he might as well do. Now that he has such a good opportunity, he must not miss it. He wants to do something big and let people all over the world know about Yuan Chonghuan's power.

"The last one will be here." Zu Dashou immediately replied loudly.

"I will immediately lead two thousand elite cavalry to kill the Tartar spies I just discovered. Here, kill the Tartar spies and retreat immediately. If there are large trunks, retreat immediately. If the Tartars avoid the dangerous place, retreat also. In short, this time, it is to kill those spies. No need to worry about anything else. If there is any danger, return also, do you understand?" Yuan Chonghuan gave the madman-like order.

"This, sir, this?" Zu Dashou was confused. What is this with? Two thousand people went to chase the Tartars with 10 or 20 cavalry? There was no need to chase them to death. Zu Dashou felt that his master Futai might be crazy. He didn't know if he agreed to go or refused.

"No need to worry about this, just execute it. Don't worry, the target this time is the Twenty-Caval Tartars. Come back immediately after being killed. I want to give the Tartars a warning..." Yuan Chonghuan said confidently. Today, his confused vision and thinking finally became clearer, clearer, and his mind became alive. After analyzing the subtle relationship, he knew what he was going to do and what he could do.

"Get orders!" Zu Dashou did not think much and immediately went to execute it. Two thousand people went to fight 10,000 cyclists. This... Although this order was nonsensical and wasteful, when he looked at his confident look at his home to care for the Taiwan Strait, Zu Dashou simply agreed. As Yuan Chonghuan's confidant, he naturally could not let his own adults get out of the Taiwan Strait.

The generals and Guan Zuo looked at Yuan Chonghuan in surprise, and they were all surprised. Two thousand people went to fight 10 or 20 cavalry of the Tartars. Sure enough, this governor was famous for being stunned, and this silence attacked again.
Chapter completed!
