MTL - Number of People-Chapter 2609 The Guizi scroll is full of fog, and murderous intentions are looming

  Chapter 2609 Guizi Scroll is full of fog, and murderous intent looms

After brewing for a long time, Abai said slowly: "Father Khan, in fact, how to force and lure the Zhou army to fight our Jianzhou army, Father Khan already has some strategies in mind, and even made some preparations, which have played a role." , but from a safe perspective, I am afraid that the other party needs to be more at ease, otherwise the other party may give up this battle at any time, because the initiative is in the hands of the other party."

  Nurhachi nodded slowly: "Well, tell me."

"Our army has 60,000 troops on the northern front. Father Khan's intention must be to look for an opportunity to fight a battle on the northern front. So it's not easy to overdo the bait, otherwise it will make him suspicious. After all, in the past few years, big brother I have never been favored by my father Khan, and the sudden change is too big, it is not suitable,..."

   In fact, Nurhachi had already considered this point, but he never showed it. He didn't expect that his third son would also consider it. He nodded slightly to show his approval.

  "An appropriate advantage will deepen the opponent's confidence, but if the advantage is too large and too obvious, it may make the opponent suspect that it is a trap,..."

   Abai figured out that Zhou Jun's thoughts were also in place, which made Netu look at him with admiration, and Nurhachi was even more happy.

"Secondly, in choosing a place for a battle, it should not be too favorable to Zhou Jun, but it should not be too powerful to us. The reason is the same. It is best to make the opponent feel that we have fallen into their trap consciously or unconsciously. Only in this way can they strengthen their determination and confidence to fight."

  This point is also portrayed incisively and meticulously, but it does not involve specific tactical arrangements. Abai only knows the situation on the Dazhou intelligence side, and does not know the battlefield situation in Shenyang, Liaodong, so he can only make a general suggestion.

"The third is what Father Khan mentioned at the end. The opponent already has an advantage on the northern front. Even if we choose the right opportunity to fight against him, since the opponent's current advantage in firearms is getting stronger and stronger, we are also likely to be self-defeating. Once this battle If we can't win, we are in a desperate situation, so we have to strengthen our own advantages from all aspects, in terms of military strength, combat effectiveness, and tactics. Younger Brother and Fifth Brother must have known it already,..."

   As soon as the point is over, confident but still humble, Natu feels that he still underestimates Sanbeile, who has been with him for several years and is usually taciturn.

  It is said that he is mediocre, but now it seems that he is not a man by his appearance, or he is no longer Amon under Wu.

   Nurhachi was lost in thought.

He understands the first two points, and he also understands the last point, but it is a difficult difficulty to overcome. Although Feng Keng is young, he is cunning and cunning, and Liu Dongyang is a veteran of many battles. It is difficult to hide it from their eyes and ears. Or almost impossible.

   Lure them into the game, and then give full play to their own advantages, and the advantages of their own Jianzhou Army are their mobility advantages and fighting will.

Judging from the recent wars, the combat effectiveness of the Ganning Army on the northern front is not as good as last year's Shanxi Army. If you want to win, you may have to make a breakthrough on the Ganning Army. The Datong Army on the southern front is also not as good as the Denglai Army. The battlefield must be on the northern front, and the southern front can only be used as a support.

  Of course, if he dared to fight this battle, Nurhachi naturally had his own confidence.

  Li Yongfang's hidden trump card for many years was not used up in the Shenyang World War I, and he still had spare hands.

The reason why I feel the pressure and want to fight this battle as soon as possible is because I am worried that as Zhao Lijiao and his group continue to adjust, Feng Ziying's adjustment will gradually deepen and increase, and he may soon be adjusted to guerrilla and defense. The mid-level and low-level generals are coming, and once the adjustments are completed, this trump card will be useless.

  Gan Ning Town is certainly a breakthrough point, and Liaodong Town also has a killer weapon. Combining the two, if one's own side is more prepared and Chu Ying's bait is added, Nurhachi feels that this battle is still 70% sure.

  *******

  Feng Ziying took the time to put down the newspapers from Beijing.

  The news channels coming from Beijing are both light and dark.

   On the surface, it is from the Ministry of War and the Secretary of General Administration, and the Secretary of General Administration is to send reports to the residence, miscellaneous, and reports of various situations.

  The Ministry of War is quite special, because Liaodong is at war, so no matter how big or small, the Ministry of War must send special information.

  The dark channels are Wang Wenyan's main channel and Long Jinwei's separate channel.

  Wang Wenyan’s main channel includes everything Feng Ziying needs, and also includes some private channels that will be passed on. Long Jinwei is relatively narrow, mainly for the activities of Jianzhou Jurchen in Beijing.

Of course, Nurhachi arranged more than one informant in Beijing, but Natu took the lead. Later, Abai went to Natu to assist Abai to be in charge, but in fact, Natu was the main one in the actual operation. Abai is more about learning and observing, and of course he will also put forward some suggestions and opinions of his own, and later even Tabai joined in.

  Abai and Natu disappeared, probably sneaked back to Liaodong, only Tabai is still in Beijing.

As for Nurhachi's spy work in Beijing, Feng Ziying arranged for Wu Yaoqing to cooperate with Long Jinwei long ago, and later Busia Mara also joined in, so he quickly found out some clues, and began to follow the vines, digging out their situation in Beijing. Dens in.

  Feng Ziying resolutely vetoed Long Jinwei's intention to catch them all in one go, even if he could even capture Nurhachi's two sons in one fell swoop, he did not agree.

Abai and Tabai are not outstanding people in Feng Ziying's impression. If it is Daishan and Huang Taiji, or Duoduo and Dorgon, maybe I can still be a little moved, but the first two are now Nurhachi's most important The two heirs to the Khan throne, the latter two are still in their infancy and worthless.

In Feng Ziying's view, by firmly locking in the last intelligence base of the Jianzhou Jurchens in the capital city of the Great Zhou, without alarming them, one can get a rough idea of ​​their activity trajectories and trends, and even a rough grasp of other The goals and intentions of the activities are extremely beneficial to our own side, which also means that our side can roughly observe the short-term and medium-term focus of Jianzhou Jurchen, and provide our own decision-making reference.

  In the early stage, Natu quietly expressed some opinions in newspapers through some of its "partners" in the capital city and some scholars it sponsored, or through some channels clamored that the war in Liaodong was delayed and consumed a lot, and it should end sooner.

He even expressed his opinion through a member of the household department, Wailang, that the war in Hebei is over. In order to ensure that there will be no refugees and rioters in Hebei and Henan due to floods and droughts this year and next, he asked for more funds to be allocated for water conservancy and road construction in Henan and Hebei. Large-scale investment in construction, and sufficient relief money and food must be prepared at the same time.

This seems to be very normal, but as the news from Cao Yu's side, I also received a lot of greetings from people, asking "Today News" to be slightly biased in its reports, suggesting to the court that the war should be ended as soon as possible, and that The focus is on infrastructure construction and relief in the North to avoid new civil unrest.

These suggestions all sound high-minded and focus on people's livelihood, but the implication is that the war in Liaodong cannot be delayed for a long time, and the court's focus cannot be devoted to the war for several years. It should come to an end as soon as possible and solve the livelihood of the people in the north. up.

  It took a lot of effort to build momentum in the early stage. Now that Netu and Abai suddenly disappeared, they should have returned to Liaodong to report to Nurhachi, which shows that Nurhachi should have to make some decisions.

Combined with the fact that Chu Ying's contact with her own side during this period is also negligent, the news from Busia Mara's channel also said that Nurhachi seems to be slowly but surely lifting the ban on Chu Ying, and even giving Chu Ying Feng Ziying also finds Ying's military power more interesting. It seems that Nurhachi is also very patient, and he is methodically trying to lure himself into the trap.

Nurhachi obviously also knew that his side also had secret eyeliners inside them. Feng Ziying estimated that Busia Mara had already been in control of the news channel arranged by her aunt Menggu Gege on Huangtaiji's side, as if she had also noticed it. Just like the Natu line, everyone is quietly trying to use these channels to pass on the "intelligence clues" they want to pass on to the other party.

   "Is there any other movement?" Feng Ziying asked with her head sideways.

Wu Yaoqing was also sorting out the materials in his hands, and nodded: "There is no clue yet, Jianzhou is also very cautious now, as the adults said, entering the final preparation stage, we must prevent disclosure or suspicion , so as not to fall short, coupled with the fact that the small-scale battles are becoming more and more intense as a cover, many details are difficult to analyze, but one thing is still suspicious. It seems that part of the new Jianzhou army stationed on the front line of Fengji Fort is moving south. The vice president is going to fight a battle between a wall fort and the alkali field fort. Mang Gurtai is very active there. Mr. Cao also wrote to say that a battle of 300 people on both sides around the alkali field fort has happened this month. There were five battles, and there were two battles involving thousands of people, which was much more intense than the previous few months,..."

  Feng Ziying touched her chin with great interest, "Then Yaoqing, do you think Nurhachi will choose the southern line as the decisive point?"

Wu Yaoqing pondered for a while, "According to common sense, the main force of Jianzhou's elite has always been in the north, and Shenyang is also the place they must defend. It is impossible to achieve a large-scale southward move, at least it cannot cover up their tracks, but it does not rule out that the war on the southern front will become more intense. The Jianzhou Army felt that it would be easier to gain an advantage on the southern line, so they first mobilized some new troops for reinforcements to observe. If it is effective, it is not impossible to mobilize their elite cavalry to go south, because the forts along the side wall on this line are all in their Under control, they want to mobilize some, 10,000 to 20,000 people, it is still possible,..."
