Chongzhen chat group

Chapter 614 Looking Ahead
Therefore, it was Jianlu who robbed Guan Ningming's army of grain, but there was no such thing as Guan Ningming's army taking the initiative to grab Jianlu's grain.This is why Guan Ning's Ming army harvested grain in advance, and only the grain on the edge of the city will always be kept.Because when Jianlu came to attack, there was that warning time, which was enough to rob the food on the edge of the city.

In the past, the Dongjiang Ming army had no choice but to rob the Jianlu of food when they were starving to death, but they often suffered badly.

Combining these two situations, Emperor Chongzhen suddenly felt that Lu Xiangsheng's battle plan had to be changed.After thinking about it for a while, he chatted privately with Liu Xingzuo, commander of Jinyiwei, and asked about the situation in Liaodong in detail.

Afterwards, Emperor Chongzhen chatted with Wei Mulan in private, and asked her to tell Lu Xiangsheng, and asked Lu Xiangsheng to try his best to collect the distribution of grain fields in eastern Liaodong.Not only that, he also privately chatted with all the people in the chat group who knew about the situation in Liaodong. Of course, he also asked some people in reality, such as Zu Dashou and so on.

By the evening of the next day, the most detailed map of the distribution of Liaodong grain fields during this period was placed in front of Emperor Chongzhen.

On this map, most places indicate that the strength of the troops is unknown, or about how many or how many troops there are. Only a few places have a clear number of Jianlu garrisons.

After Emperor Chongzhen looked at the map for a long time, he took photos and recorded them in the chat group, and gave permission to Liu Wangshi, Gao Yingyuan and Wei Mulan.At this time, he suddenly found helplessly that neither Liu Wangshi nor Gao Yingyuan knew how to draw.There is no way that Wei Mulan can copy this map as it is and put it in front of Sun Chengzong.

Fortunately, this is not a drawing competition, and the requirements are not particularly high.He asked Gao Yingyuan and Liu Wang to draw gourds in the same way, and drew two copies for Sun Chengzong's reference.

In less than an hour, the map in the hands of Emperor Chongzhen in the capital was presented in front of Sun Chengzong in Ningyuan and in front of Lu Xiangsheng in Lushun.

In the temporary group of Gao Yingyuan, Liu Wangshi, and Wei Mulan, Emperor Chongzhen said: "I have thought about it, since I am going to do it, I have to make a big one. I have decided to launch a sabotage campaign against Jianlu!"

"Your Majesty, do you want to grab more food from Jianlu?" Wei Mulan spoke quickly, obviously asking on Lu Xiangsheng's behalf.

After hearing this, Emperor Chongzhen couldn't help feeling a little bit emotional. Even an outstanding commander like Lu Xiangsheng didn't react for a while and couldn't understand his intentions.

Thinking this way, he explained in detail: "War is actually fighting logistics. From another perspective, fighting is also about comprehensive national strength. As far as we Ming and Jianlu are concerned, our comprehensive national strength of Ming is far better than that of Jianlu. Regarding this point, it is my Ming Dynasty's advantage, if it can be reflected in the Liaodong battlefield, it will be able to defeat Jianlu faster."

After he finished speaking, no one in the group spoke, obviously after the report, Sun Chengzong and Lu Xiangsheng did not speak, but just listened.

"If I go to grab Jianlu's food in the Ming Dynasty, although I can get some supplies, how much can I grab? As far as the current combat power between the enemy and ourselves in Liaodong is concerned, it is undeniable that Jianlu still has an advantage at present. If Jianlu reacts , is there still a chance to grab food?"

After Emperor Chongzhen's words were finished, Wei Mulan finally spoke: "Your Majesty's intention is not to rob grain, but to seize time, and try to destroy the grain fields as much as possible before Jianlu reacts?"

Obviously, this matter was what Lu Xiangsheng wanted to bring up. After hearing what Emperor Chongzhen said, he was also the first to react, and finally understood what Emperor Chongzhen meant.

Emperor Chongzhen was finally a little relieved, and immediately affirmed: "Yes, that's what I mean. To me, Ming, it's just a drop in the bucket for me to grab those grains. Although it is a pity to lose this part, it is not fatal. And if my Ming If we destroy as much food harvest as possible, it will be fatal to Jianlu during this little ice age. Coupled with the upcoming Korean War and so on, Jianlu's national strength will definitely be weakened again!"

"Your Majesty, in my opinion, the struggle between countries does not necessarily have to be on the battlefield!" Liu Wang said eloquently on behalf of Sun Chengzong.

Seeing this, Wei Mulan also said: "Your Majesty is wise!"

Emperor Chongzhen didn't know that this sentence was actually said by Wei Mulan himself.In passing the messages back and forth, she clearly felt that Emperor Chongzhen was far-sighted and seemed to have a higher level of vision than Lu Zhongcheng, so she said something sincerely, not because she wanted to flatter her.

Emperor Chongzhen was naturally a little complacent, and he immediately went on to say: "Now that we have reached an agreement, let's sum up how the Hussars and the Guanning Cavalry should act, what route to take, and what means of destruction to use. In order to achieve the strategic goal of destroying as many grain fields as possible! Remember, this battle is not to kill the enemy, but to destroy the grain fields!"

For these, you need to consider the frontline generals.Emperor Chongzhen has already said everything he should have said, and it is impossible to cover everything in detail.

At the same time, far away in the Shenyang Imperial Palace in Liaodong, the Manchu Qing Emperor Huang Taiji was also holding a pre-imperial meeting.From the slight smile on his fat face, you can tell that he is in a good mood.

I saw him nod to Dorgon who had just finished his report and retreated to his position, then glanced at everyone, and said with a smile: "I am very pleased, all the banners are very hardworking, and the population that has been plundered now is enough to make up for my Manchuria's previous efforts." The population loss is even slightly exceeded. As long as we assimilate for a period of time, the strength of our Qing Dynasty will be able to recover or even go further."

In some respects, although there were open and secret struggles within the Jianlu, even to the point of life and death, when the Jianlu faced a crisis, they could work together to tide over the difficulties. This was something that officials of the late Ming Dynasty could not do.

Because of this, when the Manchurian population was greatly lost, all the banners realized the crisis, so they did their best in the battle to plunder the Jurchens in the north, and the harvest became very rich.

After comprehensively boasting, Huang Taiji turned his head to look at Jierhalang and said: "For the Mongolian tribes, since the Aohan tribe was suppressed forcefully, the Mongolian Eight Banners have also been successfully formed. Now I have wiped out the original Eight Banners. There are more Han Army Eight Banners and Mongolia Eight Banners. The number of troops will also exceed ever before. As long as we go through the tempering of the war, the elite of our Qing Dynasty will also reach its peak. At that time, when conquering the Ming Kingdom, there will be no need to mobilize the whole country Already!"

That is to say, even if there is a thorn in the back of the Dongjiang Ming Army and there are enough troops, there is no need to worry about Da Qing vomiting blood.

When Huang Taiji said this, he seemed a little complacent, smiled slightly, narrowed the small eyes on his fat face and said: "Now, you should understand my painstaking efforts, why do you have to give favors to Hannu?"
