"Gold, Fu, Gai, and the sea, wherever they are, hit them! After all, the opportunity cannot be missed, and the time will never come again. If you delay it for a long time, you will inevitably have long nights and dreams! Once the Tatars react and understand, no matter how many tricks we use, they will never

It’s all useless!”

Yang Zhen saw that the generals had converged on the issue of continuing to fight and retreat, and no longer had the original resistance, so he stood up immediately and said decisively:

"Gaizhou! Just attack Gaizhou! Gaizhou is only sixty or seventy miles away from here. It is easily accessible by both post and sea routes, and it is easy to dispatch people and horses! And -"

Having said this, Yang Zhen paused for a moment and asked everyone: "Moreover, have you ever thought about what the situation is like in Gaizhou City right now?! The Tatars are stationed in the local Jia La Zhang Jing Zhang Kushan with a white flag.

He should be stationed in Gaizhou City, but now he died in Yilipo! This is really a God-given opportunity!"

Having said this, Yang Zhen glanced around the generals with bright eyes and a serious expression, and finally said: "The most important thing in this battle is to seize the fleeting opportunity!

"It's not too late, as lateness will lead to changes. Our troops will rest during the day and set off in the evening! This is our last battle deep behind enemy lines! We win, and we're done! Even if we don't win, it's not a trip in vain!"

After Yang Zhen finished speaking these words with great emotion, he looked at the circle of generals and leaders surrounding him, only to see some nodding in approval, while others were still frowning and saying nothing.

Yang Zhen suddenly realized that some people had become rich and settled, or they just wanted to keep the results of the victory in front of them, so they became tired of fighting and feared fighting. In addition, the fatigue of the soldiers was also a problem that had to be considered.

Thinking of this, Yang Zhen coughed, cleared his throat, and then said to everyone: "I know that in the past few days, the soldiers in various ministries have been running around and are exhausted. They all want to take a rest and recuperate.

We have enough energy to fight again in the future. But - this is absolutely not possible! The Tatars will not wait for us!"

Yang Zhen's last "but" was suddenly said with a fierce voice, and suddenly everyone's eyes were focused on him again:

"You know, our current style of play is like competing for time with the Tatars. We can win before the Tatars react! Once the Tatars react, we will lose!"

After saying these words, Yang Zhen calmed down his emotions. He was worried that these people were afraid of the Tatars in Gaizhou City. He pondered for a moment, changed his tone, and then said:

"Although Gaizhou City today is an important place for the Manchu Tatars in southern Liaoning, how many people are there in total for the Manchu Tatars?! How many Eight Banners can they station in this area of ​​southern Liaoning?!

"Especially the Tatar flag with white trim. As far as I know, it is a smaller flag. There are only five armors, flags and armours. Counting them together, there are only about twenty cows in total!

"Southern Liaoning is so big. There are Jinzhou, Fuzhou, Gaizhou, Haizhou, and Lushunkou. They spread out their troops to guard them. How many true Mantars can there be in each place?! At most, there is only one Jia La garrison in each place!

"Moreover, Brother Qiu is well aware of the situation in Gaizhou City. The real Tatars are only two Niulu or six hundred households! There is also an armored man from Niulu, and hundreds of other Tatars who are helping the army. But

They are all stationed outside the city!

"This time, as long as we sneak into the city under cover of darkness, as long as we fish in troubled waters quickly enough, the chance of success is not 99%, but 100%!"

Yang Zhen also thought about whether it would be more reliable and safer to go back south and attack Fuzhou City. After all, it was closer to Changxing Island in Fuzhou Bay. Hu Changhai and Gao Chengyou would definitely have nothing to say.

But after much deliberation, he gave up.

First of all, Xiong Yue is a bit too far from Fuzhou City. It is more than three times the distance from Xiong Yue to Gaizhou. It would take a whole day and one night for a group of people to rush there.

Secondly, there is also a heavy Tatar army stationed in Fuzhou City. Even if they succeed in cheating the city, they will not be able to eat or digest it for a while.

Furthermore, Yang Zhen also heard from Qiu Zhenhai that Xu Erxian was originally ordered to go to Fuzhou City to build a naval fleet, with the purpose of wiping out the pirate gangs in Fuzhou Bay.

This shows that the Tatars in Fuzhou City are wary and prepared for piracy activities in the direction of Fuzhou Bay. It is difficult to hide their whereabouts if they land on the coast by sea.

Of course, Fuzhou City is too close to Fuzhou Bay, and attacking Fuzhou City would be too beneficial to Hu Changhai and the others, which Yang Zhen does not want to see now.

Although these pirate teams are currently unwilling to be recruited by him, Yang Zhen still holds out hope that he can recruit them in the future.

If he helped the bandits in Fuzhou Bay and really wiped out the Tatars in Fuzhou City in one fell swoop, then it would be impossible for Hu Changhai and the others to accept Yang Zhen's recruitment in the next year and a half.

At least until the Tatars readjusted their deployment in Fuzhou City and once again posed a threat to the bandits in Fuzhou Bay, it was impossible for Hu Changhai and others to accept Yang Zhen's recruitment.

Therefore, both in public and private matters, Yang Zhen could only choose to attack Gaizhou nearby. Although the probability of success was relatively small and the risk of failure was greater, after weighing the balance, he had no choice.

Unless he retreated now, crossed Liaodong Bay again, and returned to Songshan City, but the current situation was generally beneficial to him, so he was unwilling to withdraw like this.

Yang Zhen said as he thought, and at the end, in order to once again boost morale and mobilize emotions, he said to the generals: "You all go back, gather your troops, and rest and replenish! At the same time, you must also discuss it well with your brothers. Once

We entered Gaizhou City, and the rules Yang established in Xiongyue City are still applicable in Gaizhou City!"

Gaizhou is not the small town of Xiongyue. The city there is larger than Xiongyue, and the population is larger. The gold, silver, and women are naturally not to mention, but they are much richer than the small town of Xiongyue.

When all the generals heard this, some were thoughtful, and some frowned with joy, but since Yang Zhen had made a decision, they all received the order with clasped fists, without saying a word.

The battlefield has always been like a gambling game. If it is a game where you lose more than you win, it will be useless no matter how many benefits you promise in advance. No one will follow you to take risks, because there may not be many people who can live to see victory.

However, for games where there is more victory than loss, or even gambling where the chance of winning is as high as 90%, it is different. Gamblers will pounce on it like sharks smelling blood.

The generals around Yang Zhen are all used to fighting and have a lot of gambling ambitions. If they don't have a lot of gambling ambitions, they won't follow him deep behind enemy lines.

At this time, each of them was thinking about it and began to think about how to convey Yang Zhen's order to his subordinates in a more embellished way.

Seeing that the generals accepted his decision, Yang Zhen stopped asking for opinions, made arrangements in threes and fives, and then sent the generals to go their separate ways.

Let us say that the generals had just left, and Jin Shijun came to see him immediately after Anqing. They reported to Yang Zhen the progress of the formation of the newly recruited young men, and focused on the situation of the shed leaders.

"Sir, Commander-in-Chief! The captured young men in the city have been checked and recorded. The youngest is fourteen years old and the oldest is fifty-one. There are 732 young men available!

"Basically, according to your Excellency's organization method in the advance camp, we plan to organize ten people into one shed, ten teams into one team, and two teams into one sentry. Currently, there are seventy-three sheds and two people in total, which can be organized into four groups, front, rear, left, and right.

Whistle the troops!

"In addition, each shed has a shed chief, one person from each team is the team officer, and another person is the team adjutant. The team officer, and the team adjutant each lead the team's five sheds! - This is the proposed shed chief at the humble level.

And team officer, team adjutant candidate!"

Jin Shijun stood in front of Yang Zhen, while talking, he took a volume of documents from An Qinghou's reception, and then presented it to Yang Zhen with both hands respectfully.

Yang Zhen took it and carefully read the list written on it. At this time, he heard Jin Shijun say: "As for the four sentry officers, it is inconvenient to nominate them for their low-level positions. Please choose them personally!"

From Jin Shijun's list, Yang Zhen indeed only saw the names of proposed shed leaders, team officers, and team adjutants, and there were some more familiar names among them, such as Hu Liu.

In addition, when I was checking the lives of the prisoners in Dongkuayuan, Li Ji, the head of the county government team who took the initiative to sign up to serve, was also on the list of proposed team officers.

Yang Zhen looked through it and found that not all of the candidates were right for him, especially the shed leaders.

However, these are not important at the moment. Since the power has been delegated to Jin Shijun and An Qing, they should be fully trusted. If they were to ask about the situation one by one, they would be at a disadvantage.

Yang Zhen saw Jin Shijun and An Qing standing in front of him slightly uneasily, waiting for his explanation. He thought for a moment and said to them:

"These young and strong men, who can work and fight, are valuable resources wherever they go! Especially, regardless of whether they have been on the battlefield before, tonight, they will be temporarily armed and will join us in action! So the shed chief

, the selection of team officer and deputy team officer is not unimportant!

"Of course, I'm very relieved about you two, and I'm also very relieved about the people you selected. You can give it a try! But -"

Having said this, Yang Zhen put down the documents in his hands, stood up and walked a few steps back and forth in the courtyard. After a while, he turned back to Jin Shijun and An Qinghou and said:

"To be on the safe side! In the newly formed sentry team, there won't be so many sentry officers! There is no need for so many sentries! You first select ten young people, number one hundred, and hand them over to Hu Dabao before noon today!
Chapter completed!
