To be honest, Gu Zhenhua is really not loyal to Nan Ming. Don’t look at him in front of the Duke of the People. To put it bluntly, just like Uncle Liu, he is just a banner that calls on the world.
In secret, Gu Zhenhua was completely doing his own thing. In the internal education of An**, the two words Chinese are used, and the most important thing is to distinguish between China and the barbarians. As for the Han Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty, the Song Dynasty, and the Ming Dynasty, they are just dynasties of the Han people. It is common for the Han people to change dynasties. As long as the Han people become emperors, they can be worthy of the billions of common people in the fertile land of China, there is nothing wrong with it.
Everyone hates the Tartars and opposes the Tartars because they are barbarians, and they change the Xia Dynasty from the barbarians, and they enslave all the people! The battle is to protect the inheritance of the ancestors, to protect their parents and relatives, and to protect their land!
Among all the propaganda, the Ming Dynasty can be ignored. In addition, the Nanming was indeed messy, and these generals did not have any sense of belonging. Therefore, facing Shi Kefa's request for help and the imperial court's will, the first thing that everyone thought of was An**'s interests.
Should I fight or not, and can I go to the battle?
Xie Bin pondered for a while and spoke first: "Dude, it is logical that the Tartars are fighting, so we can't be afraid of it. But let's open the map to see how long the front line guarded by An** is? From Shaanxi to Henan, it's more than 2,000 miles in front and behind. If we count the Zhili in Southeast Shandong, it's more than 3,000 miles. How many of us have we, if we divide our troops like this, will only be passively beaten everywhere, and the gain is not worth the loss."
Even the generals opposed sending troops, and the others present also stared at each other. Wu Kaijie also said: "Dude. Judging from Shi Kefa and the imperial court's documents, they may have the idea of ​​letting An ** put the jar in. I dare say that we are going to drive the army foolishly. Not only to deal with the Tartars, but also to beware of our own people!"
Chen Qianfu also frowned and couldn't help but say, "The food this year is even more urgent than last year. The Duke got so much money last year, and we almost spent it on purchasing grain before we could barely get through it. This year, we all depend on ourselves. I don't need to say how much it will consume when fighting in a situation. In short, whether we can send troops needs to be weighed carefully."
The difficulties these people mentioned just hit Gu Zhenhua's thoughts. He was silent for a while before he turned his eyes to Li Jibo.
"Mr. Li, please help me weigh it."
Li Jibo breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Build high walls, accumulate grain, and slowly become king. This is the necessity of achieving great things. In my opinion, An** must accumulate strength for one to two years, lay down strength and lay the foundation in every corner. Become a truly towering tree, so that it can be invincible."
Everyone heard this. They all nodded frequently. Even the most warlike Yue Polu said, "If we wait for two years, we might be able to equip the BMW horses. By then, it will be the time when the winged cavalry swept the world."
"But..."
Li Jibo said again: "Everyone, do you think that if there is no help from An**, how long can Shi Kefa, Liu Zeqing and others hold on? Will the Tartars go straight in, fight to Nanzhili, or even cross the Yangtze River?"
"No, no!" Fang Jianming said: "Mr. Li, at least they have hundreds of thousands of soldiers, and the people will support them, resist at all levels, and can hold on for a long time."
"A general is incompetent to the thousands of troops. Seeing them defeated so quickly in Shandong, I am not sure! If the Tartars went south on a large scale, seized the canal, or even threatened Nanjing, it would probably be of no benefit to us."
Gu Zhenhua couldn't help but nod. Li Jibo's analysis made sense. Besides, in history, the Southern Ming Dynasty was like this, and it was about to collapse at one touch. Although he had severely damaged the Tartars, with the highest level of the Southern Ming Dynasty, it might be really defeated thousands of miles away and could not be dealt with.
Once Jiangnan is occupied by the Tartars, there will be no channels for An** to contact foreign countries. If you want to count on overseas trade and fill military spending, this idea will be disappointed.
In addition, Nan Ming is really finished, An ** sits alone and ignores him, which has a huge impact on his reputation.
After getting a pig teammate like Nanming, Gu Zhenhua was urged to cry.
After walking back and forth on the ground for a few times, Gu Zhenhua thought repeatedly in his mind before saying, "Mr. Li is right. We must not sit idly by and watch the Tartars swallow Jiangnan, but we cannot put us all in for them!"
"Mr., I hit it all, but how can we get the best of both worlds?"
Gu Zhenhua laughed and said, "We cannot send a large army, but we can send a small number of elite troops and send some guidance troops to assist them in defending the city. By the way, aren't there any arms? If there is nothing else, provide them with some gunpowder and kill the Tartars!"
When Wu Kaijie heard this, he immediately said, "Dude, do you also need to make some money in this gunpowder?"
"For the country, let's make a cost price!" Gu Zhenhua said generously.
Everyone knew what the so-called cost price was! Selling Zuo Liangyu to some arms and snatching Huguang into his hands. The price was simply ridiculously high!
Of course they won’t say it out loud, and these people have always felt at ease to take advantage.
Li Jibo thought for a while and said, "Dude, this alone is probably not enough to turn the situation around the war! If they have the will to fight, we may be useful. If the soldiers are not in a fight, we may not be able to turn the situation around."
Gu Zhenhua pondered for a while, couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Old Li, why do you always pour cold water on me!"
He leaned against the Taishi chair, his eyes rolled around for a few times, and suddenly Gu Zhenhua suddenly jumped from his seat.
"Hahaha, I have an idea, I promise that I can't even make the Tartars cry!"
These people know Gu Zhenhua very well. When they see his expression, they know that this idea is not good! Everyone was also interested and couldn't help but say, "Dude, please talk quickly, let's listen too."
Gu Zhenhua waved his hand quickly and said with a smile: "You must not reveal the secrets of heaven. You must let everyone know. I am afraid that this idea will not work. In short, you can just wait and see how I plan my plan!"
The appetite was so high that it was not said anything, and everyone was itchy. But Gu Zhenhua waved his hand and asked them to retreat, leaving only Li Jibo and Wu Kaijie.
In order to keep it confidential, Gu Zhenhua brought both of them to a secret room. In the past, An** discussed the combat plan, but never kept it so confidential, which made these two people nervous.
"Dude, do you have any good ideas? Tell me quickly."
Gu Zhenhua did not say anything, but took a map and placed it in front of them.
"You see, this is Beijing and Tianjin. After the Tartars head south, there will inevitably be a vacancies of troops..."
Wu Kaijie's eyes lit up and he hurriedly said, "Dude, are you thinking of surrounding Wei and saving Zhao again? If the Tartars rushed to Jiangnan, we went north and attack their nest?"
Wu Kaijie shook his head and exclaimed: "It's worthy of being a magistrate. This method is good. I think we will launch an attack from northern Henan and go straight to northern Zhili. The Tartars will definitely be shocked!"
Li Jibo shook his head: "Staff General Wu, you imagined the Tartars too simply. Why did they arrange for the quadrata to attack northern Henan? Will they only send these 3,000 people? I dare to say that they must be well prepared. If we attack rashly, we will be afraid that it will damage our troops and waste our energy!"
Wu Kaijie also fell silent for a moment and couldn't help but say, "Is there a better route?"
Li Jibo smiled slightly: "Yes, according to my guess, Duke, you probably want to send troops from the sea, right?"
"Mr. Li, who knows me, I do plan to launch a sneak attack from the waterway."
The generals of the Ming Dynasty were used to focusing on land, and few people had thought of launching attacks from the sea. Li Jibo also discovered that Gu Zhenhua's eyes were in the East China Sea, and then he realized that he might have this idea.
Wu Kaijie and Li Jibo looked around the map carefully, and then couldn't help but say, "Dude, this sea route is indeed a good choice, but the sea risks are too great, and I am worried about unexpected risks."
Wu Kaijie shook his head and said, "Mr. Li, this is what you are conservative. For many years, there have been ships from Jiangnan to Tianjin. Although there are risks, they are not afraid of them. Especially the Duke of the State said nothing, the barbarians dare to cross the ocean and come to the Celestial Empire. Are the warriors of our Celestial Empire aside?"
Li Jibo laughed: "It's true that I can't keep up with the trend anymore. However, although Beijing, Tianjin and other places are empty, the city is high and the pool is deep. If there are no elite soldiers of two or three thousand, I'm afraid I can't scare the Tartars?"
Wu Kaijie also said: "Yes, if there are fewer people, they will not play the role of surrounding Wei and saving Zhao. If there are too many people, it is difficult to keep it secret, and there will be more materials to prepare. A piece of fat meat is placed in front of you, but it is a bit embarrassing to swallow this piece of meat. The Duke of the State, why don't you send Shen Tingyang's navy to you? Two thousand people should be enough!"
"Hahaha!" Gu Zhenhua couldn't help but smile loudly.
"You two, you all guessed wrongly. My master didn't think about fighting Beijing and Tianjin!"
ah!
Both of them instantly stared at the boss. If they were to go by, Li Jibo could still think of it, but if they didn't attack Beijing and Tianjin, where would they attack? Both of them were all confused.
Gu Zhenhua was stunned when he saw the two great strategists. He was also proud. How could you guess my wisdom?
After a while of silence, the two of them were still confused, but Gu Zhenhua landed his finger outside the pass.
"What I want to fight here!"
"Shengjing, no, it's Shenyang!" Wu Kaijie muttered: "Duke, the elite Tartar soldiers have been mobilized inside the pass, and there are only some old, weak, women and children outside the pass, so it's of no use?"
Before Wu Kaijie could figure it out, Li Jibo's eyes were shivering, and his whole body was trembling, and he said tremblingly: "National, Duke, don't you want to dig a grave, right?"
Chapter completed!
