Shi Kefa smiled when he heard this and stroked his beard, "In my opinion, Liao can be leveled in three years, and the north can be determined in five years!"
Dingbei in five years?
Why does this sound so familiar? Huang Degong was stunned for a moment before he remembered that wasn't this something Yuan Chonghuan had boasted about? He looked at Shi Kefa with sympathy and said in his heart: His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is a wise master, and the big talk of fixing the North in five years cannot be nonsense!
In addition, what does the three years of Pingliao mean? After five years of Dingbei, three more years of Pingliao were added?
Shi Kefa glanced at Huang Degong and said confidently: "I already have a secret case that led to the Ping Liao Dynasty in three years and the North Ding Dynasty in five years. This time I will tell you about it, and you can also help me as a consultant."
Although he, the governor of the military sect of the seven provinces, is short-term, he is still conscientiously thinking about the great cause of the Northern Expedition and the Qing Dynasty these days. Moreover, he also has a group of staff who are familiar with the art of war to help him figure it out. I really figured out a strategy for the Northern Expedition that looks pretty good!
Governor Shi showed a somewhat proud smile and said with a smile: "I have been looking through the history books these days and found that since ancient times, the south has brought peace to the north, and the north has made the south easy."
Do you still need to look at the history books for this matter?
The big warlords present were all a little disappointed - the one who succeeded in the battle between Nanping and Bei was Zhu Yuanzhang, the Taizu of this dynasty! Everyone else failed...
Shi Kefa said: "As for those starting from the south of Beiping, they can be divided into those starting from the northwest, those starting from Zhongzhou, those starting from the northeast, and those starting from the north and south of Mobei. Among them, those starting from the northwest include Qin who destroyed Chu, and Sui who destroyed Chen. When the Tang Dynasty destroyed the Liang Dynasty, the Han Dynasty took Guanzhong first and conquered the world. Those who started from Zhongzhou and conquered the world were the Western Jin Dynasty and Zhao Song. Those who started in the northeast and leveled the world did not, but those who established the Central Plains were the Jin Dynasty and the Song Dynasty. Today's Donglu, and the Khitan also once occupied the Central Plains. The one who started in Mobei and Monan was the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty.
From this, it is not difficult to find that before the Five Dynasties, the world was mostly based on Guanzhong in the northwest. After the Five Dynasties, only Zhongzhou will have the same world. After the overthrow of the Northern Song Dynasty, Northeast China, Mobei, and Jiangnan could all become the fundamental places to conquer the world. Zhongzhou and Northwest are no longer the hometowns of emperors!
Nowadays, Donglu occupies the northeastern Liao land and the Mobei and Monan grasslands, and has two of the three emperors' hometowns. However, our country only has one location south of the Yangtze River, so we are at a disadvantage.
To reverse the disadvantage, we should first level Liao, and then determine the north... We should cross the sea to conquer Liao! The troops can be divided into two groups, one to take Jinzhou and Fuzhou; the other to attack Shanhaixiongguan from the sea! After the entire Liao Dynasty is pacified, he will send his army into the pass and take Yanyun directly! "
ah! This is military statistics!
Shi Kefa, a Jinshi, seems to have real talent and learning!
Everyone will say that Beiping is easy in the South, but it is difficult to determine the North in the South. But has anyone really analyzed this issue carefully? Shi Kefa’s analysis makes the situation very clear. Now the key to the south of Beiping is not Guanzhong and the Central Plains... but the two areas of Mobei, Monan and Liao.
After the Song Dynasty, troops were sent from the Liao region. They occupied the Central Plains three times in history, and failed to gain a foothold in one of them.
And it was only once that troops were sent from Mobei and Monan to dominate the world.
It was the same time that he started from the south of the Yangtze River and established the world.
Our Ming Dynasty already has Jiangnan, so let’s take the Northeast first, and then invade from Shanhaiguan. At the same time, we will launch troops from the Southeast to Expedition to the North, and attack from the north and the south. This should be easy, right?
Moreover, the Ming army could also take advantage of sea control and directly attack Shanhaiguan... Shanhaiguan is 700 miles away from Shengjing and 700 miles away from Beijing. Therefore, whether the Qing army sends troops from Beijing or Shengjing, it must drag a logistics line of 700 miles!
Anyone who has actually commanded a large army in combat will know how much a 700-mile land logistics line consumes!
If transported by horse-drawn carriage, the delivery rate of food within 700 miles (leaving horse feed for the return trip) would be about 30%.
In other words, after transporting 10,000 dan, the food delivered to the frontline soldiers is only 3,000 dan at most... This is still an ideal that can be achieved if there is no interception by the enemy and the transport personnel are responsible enough. data.
As for the Ming army, they could use water transportation to achieve a very high delivery rate - as long as the ship did not capsize, the delivery rate could reach over 90%!
Just by comparing the delivery rate, the Ming army will be invincible... With the combat effectiveness of the model division of the New Army, let alone defeating the same number of Qing troops, there is no problem in drawing a tie and then sitting down for a confrontation. Bar?
You must know that there are not many horses in the Model Army, but the Eight Banners soldiers of the Qing Army are just one person and two horses!
Therefore, once the two armies confront each other in the Shanhaiguan area, the logistical pressure of the Qing army will be enough to make Dorgon vomit blood...
Now Huang Degong was convinced!
Although it was just talk on paper, Shi Kefa's talk made sense!
"Superintendent," Huang Degong said with a look of conviction, "it is feasible to pacify Liao in these three years and orient the north in five years! Why don't we jointly submit a report to the prince and propose this strategy, and ask the prince to send out new troops to cross the sea and conquer Liao after he ascends the throne? If we send troops to capture the Central Plains and Beizhi, it will definitely make it difficult for Dorgon to take care of each other!"
"Just as Mr. Huang said, we will jointly submit the petition!"
Shi Kefa was also quite proud. His eyes slowly swept across the lobby, taking in all the faces with expressions of admiration.
Now let’s see if Zhu Cixi is a wise king? If he was really as wise as he seemed, he would definitely adopt this advice.
...
"Censor Ji, my residence is a bit shabby and the reception is not good enough. I would like to ask Haihan..."
While Shi Kefa was "plotting" with the warlords in Shandong and Huaibei, Gao Jie was receiving Shandong Road Supervisory Yushi Jikun at the Yunlong Mountain General Mansion outside Xuzhou City.
The General's Mansion in Yunlong Mountain was originally a villa for a wealthy businessman. It was cleaned by the invading Qing army, so it was no longer luxurious and luxurious. After Gao Jie got here, he felt that the surrounding environment was good and the terrain was high, so he was not afraid of flooding by the Yellow River, so he used it as his own general's residence.
Ji Kun entered the mansion with him and entered the central hall. He looked around and said with a smile: "It's very good. I have visited hundreds of mansions in the past two years. This place can be ranked among the top two." Ten miles.”
"Haha..." Gao Jie smiled awkwardly. Could that be a good place for the palace where King Ji came in and out? It's probably the residence of the corrupt official who was found out! How does he compare his mansion with those mansions?
Is it possible...
The more Gao Jie thought about it, the more frightened he became!
If he had known that Zhu Cihong would send King Ji Yan to investigate this matter, he would not have reported the possibility of Zhu Cihuan arriving in Huang Degong's jurisdiction... That was King Ji Yan! Although he probably won't investigate corruption among military officers, there may be exceptions!
And just because he doesn’t investigate doesn’t mean he can’t expose it!
Gao Jie has been greedy for so much in the past two years, how can he resist Ji Yan Wang to expose him?
Although he felt uneasy in his heart, he showed no timidity in his appearance, so he politely invited Ji Kun into the central hall.
When the maids in the General's Mansion were served tea, Gao Jie dismissed all the servants and asked one of his confidants to stay outside to prevent others from approaching.
Ji Kun understood that this was a confidential report!
"Censor, look at this!" Gao Jie took out an envelope and handed it to Ji Kun with both hands.
Ji Kun took the envelope, took a look at it, and found that it had the words "Director Gao Rong in person" and "Secretary Supervisor Gao" written on it.
Of course Gao Zongrong is Gao Jie, and Gao, the Supervisor of Ceremonies... could it be Gao Yushun?
"This is the handwriting of Governor Gao!" Gao Jie said with certainty, "I and him both have the surname Gao. We recognize our family and have always exchanged letters."
In the early years, the military attachés of the Ming Dynasty all fawned over the eunuchs, and many of them considered themselves godfathers. Gao Jie was certainly no exception. He wanted to make Gao Yushun his father, but Gao Yushun did not accept it. He only recognized his family as brothers.
Ji Kun took out the letter from the envelope, opened it and looked at the contents, and was immediately shocked.
"What? This Dajuan actually brought Concubine Yuan Gui and the fifth prince to Huang Degong's place, and planned to rebel with Huang Degong and Shi Kefa, taking the fifth prince as the leader..." Ji Kun couldn't believe it, "Real or false of?"
Gao Jie lowered his voice: "It's an autographed letter from Governor Gao... I also have the letters he sent earlier here. I'll know after comparing them!"
Ji Kun still shook his head: "Does he want to kill the fifth prince? Besides, he is not clear-headed. Are Huang Degong and Shi Kefa fools?"
