"Is this okay?"

In Zhenjiang Fort, inside the General Military Mansion.

Jiang Wan and Li Zicheng were sitting opposite each other. Jiang Wan was enjoying tea. At this time, on the table in front of them were the Ming Dynasty treasures brought by Li Fuyao, and the two little maids were using the most authentic Ming Dynasty tea art they had learned.

, make tea soup for two people.

This is not the time for discussion, but between Jiang Wan and Li Zicheng, even if they are sitting around, the topic cannot be about daily trivial matters.

"It should be enough. If the heat is not enough, let the middle legion add a handful of firewood at that time!" Jiang Wan nodded slowly: "The affairs of North Korea have been postponed from last year to this year, and the matter of comforting the envoy has also been postponed. We can’t talk anymore, and now the North Koreans have done something like this again. It’s obvious that he is not willing to accept it. If this is the case, then the long-term pain is worse than the short-term pain, and we should fully understand this matter!"

"Didn't your Excellency say that it is the best choice to let the North Koreans solve their own problems without doing necessary things? Wouldn't the addition of the Central Route Army violate your original intention!?"

Li Zicheng thought for a moment and looked up to see Jiang Wan's rather pleased eyes.

"Yes, you have learned to look at the problem from an overall perspective, instead of just focusing on one city or one place. In the future, you will be in charge of the military and political yamen, and my overseas town and Fusi's territory is getting bigger and bigger. What you need is this kind of vision and strange thinking, and also

Only if you have such ability, can I trust you with the military government office!"

"Thank you, sir!" Li Zicheng grinned.

"The direct dismissal of our Ming soldiers and horses is indeed the best way to end this civil strife in Korea. However, after the civil strife, the Korean people's perception of our Ming Dynasty will definitely decline. This is something I don't want to see, so I

I just said that the center route army should not move unless necessary!"

"In the final analysis, you still don't have much trust in the fighting power of the Shen family and the Li family. As for the Pu family in Pyongyang, they are just joining in the fun. His thousands of people are sandwiched among the coalition forces, which is to build up momentum.

That’s all!”

"What the coalition needs now is momentum!" Jiang Wan said with a smile: "And the bigger the momentum, the better. According to the news from earlier, Li Shi has led his army back to support the royal city, and the small mountain city is now back in our hands.

Although some property and food were lost, this is still acceptable!"

"If the coalition forces are really facing off against Li Shi's troops and they still can't defeat them, then wouldn't our hard work be in vain?"

Li Zicheng shook his head. He always felt that although Jiang Wan was strategizing and seemed to have everything planned, the feeling of not being able to control the situation in his own hands was really uncomfortable.

"Do you have any good ideas?" Jiang Wan didn't know whether it was Li Zicheng who was taking the exam, or he really hadn't thought about this problem. He smiled and took a sip of the tea soup handed to him by Jin Suyan next to him, and asked.

"Our Ming army will try not to end up participating in the civil strife in North Korea, but it seems that we still have some guys who can be manipulated but are not our Ming army?"

Li Zicheng thought for a while: "A mercenary group from all over the world?"

He patted his head, as if he suddenly had an idea: "The Sihai Trading Company's mercenary regiment seems to have three regiments now. They are all desperadoes recruited by the second lady overseas. As far as I know, this mercenary regiment

There are not many Ming people in the Corps, and the Ryukyu Soothing Division is expanding its recruitment. Any Ming people with some ambition will find a way to join our Overseas Soothing Division. However, these Fan mercenaries have always been under the name of Sihai, and they will follow suit.

Use the fleet to capture the city!"

"This is Yanran's capital!" Jiang Wan laughed loudly: "Why do you think of these people of hers?"

"Our Ming soldiers and horses will not participate in the war. If this coalition army cannot defeat the North Korean king's division, these tigers and wolves will be somewhat useful if they are released. If it is true that even their participation cannot change the situation of the war, then we will not end up personally.

, I have to end it myself, the worst I can do is capture the royal city and replace it with an obedient king!"

Li Zicheng chuckled: "There must be many people who are willing to be a king!"

"This is a good idea!" Jiang Wan nodded: "One thing is that even if Yanran is willing to use her mercenary group, it will take ten and a half days to send these two thousand people to North Korea and then join the battlefield.

This does not include the time it took for the news to be sent to Ryukyu. Have you ever thought about this question? Moreover, these people have joined the battle. Will Shen Juncen listen to them, or will they listen to Shen Juncen, or will they do their own thing? The temperance commander in the middle

The problem of the supply of ordnance and food, have you considered these problems!?"

"Your Majesty gives the order, and the second lady will definitely cooperate with the whole people!" Li Zicheng's mind became clearer and clearer: "As for the time issue, I'm not worried about that. As long as your Lord's order is sent to Ryukyu, the Second Miss will directly send troops from North Korea.

The other end will fight directly towards the royal city, while the coalition forces will fight towards the royal city from this side. When the two armies merge, won't this battle be over?"

"The two armies are not working together, and each is fighting his own way. Naturally, there is no supply problem such as food, grass, ordnance. Everyone can take care of themselves!" Li Zicheng chuckled: "As for who is commanding whom, there is no problem anymore.

,Don’t they all have to obey the orders of adults!”

He nodded slowly, picked up the tea soup in front of him and drank it all. He seemed to be more and more satisfied with his idea: "In this case, our overseas army can stay put and do its best to deal with the possible outbreak of the plague and the outbreak of the plague.

The attack of the Tatar army, I have a hunch that if the Tatars really suffered huge losses in the plague, they will definitely start a new war against us. If we understand the affairs of Korea in this way, it will not affect our strength at all!"

“That’s not how you drink tea soup!”

Jiang Wan sighed and looked at the tea bowl that Li Zicheng put down: "The two of them have been grinding for a long time, and you are drinking like a cow chewing peonies. You are really wasting a good thing!"

"Sir, please tell me if my plan like this is okay!" Li Zicheng wiped the tea foam from his mouth, with a look of anticipation in his eyes.

"You are better than I thought!" Jiang Wan smiled and nodded solemnly, but sighed in her heart. After all, it is the famous Li Zicheng. Even in this life, his life trajectory is because of himself.

Some changes have taken place with the arrival of the show, but as long as a truly capable person is given enough stage, he will become the protagonist of this stage sooner or later.

"The Military and Political Yamen will prepare an order and send it directly to the Ryukyu Soothing Envoy Department. Jiang Yanran is not only my adopted sister, but also an official of my Overseas Soothing and Soothing Department. Under the control of the Military and Political Yamen, she is ordered to select troops and horses, mobilize ships and supplies,

Land in Busan and march to Seoul!"

"Remember, it is very important to select soldiers and horses. The order must be clearly told to her that mercenaries will be mainly composed of Fan people. The Ming officers and soldiers in our overseas Suppression Division, except for the generals who command the troops, will try not to participate in this.

war!"

"Okay, sir, I'll treat you to a drink next time. What kind of tea is this? It tastes terrible..."
