Zhang Pan nodded and said: "General Guo plans to regain Jinzhou, or even cover two states, and he will occupy it according to the situation. I have already agreed to send troops to help the battle."

Sending troops to assist in the war is a general term, which also includes the matter of dividing land. Not only the generals stationed in Ludao, Shicheng Island, Big and Small Changshan Islands and other places, Guo Dajing also sent letters and transported food.

Hongyi cannons, heavy muskets, light muskets, granular gunpowder reloading... gave Guo Dajing greater ambitions.

Not only must they occupy Jinzhou, but they must also gather enough troops to deal a heavy blow to the invading Jianqi and occupy as much land as possible.

This was also forced by the imperial court's shortage of food and salary. Guo Dajing had to speed up his plan and march to the land to obtain as much land as possible for cultivation.

The loss of North Korea's farmland was a huge loss to Dongjiang Town. Guo Dajing believed that the temptation of using the land could allow the troops stationed on each island to send troops to assist in the war and get their share according to a certain share.

The safest plan is to build a defense line at Nanguan and capture most of the Golden State; the slightly more ambitious plan is to advance northward to Xiaoheishan and Hongzui Fort to capture the entire Golden State.

As for Fuzhou and Gaizhou, it would be a better result if they could be turned into outposts. They would provide early warning and buffering for the Jinzhou base, and prevent the Japanese from attacking the Jinzhou base while the offshore ice froze in the winter.

According to Guo Dajing's estimation, if he had 10,000 troops, he could basically achieve his goal. If the Dongjiang headquarters also sent troops to assist in the battle, the results would be even greater.

"I understand the humble position." After listening to Zhang Pan's introduction, Zhou Qing felt infinite emotion in his heart.

He was still a refugee at the beginning of the year, but in more than half a year, Guo Dajing had become a guerrilla general, and he was on the verge of becoming the leader of the generals of the Liaonan Islands.

Zhang Pan patted Zhou Qing on the shoulder and said, "If nothing else goes wrong, General Guo will rush to Lushun in the next year to start preparations and arrangements for regaining Jinzhou. You and he are old acquaintances, and you should have a good relationship."

Zhou Qing smiled bitterly and bowed to accept the order, but he didn't know whether Guo Dajing could still be approachable due to the huge disparity in status.
