After expressing his attitude, Wu Yingxiong turned his attention to Xu He and asked: "Xu... Acting Commander-in-Chief, do you have any objections to the Governor's idea of ​​fully assisting the North Road Defense Area?"

Wu Yingxiong called Xu He "General Soldier of the Xu Dynasty", which seemed to be a gesture of goodwill, indicating that he had agreed with the recommendation of Xu He within Liaodong Town.

After hearing Wu Yingxiong's inquiry, Xu He first looked at each other with several high-ranking military attachés in Liaodong Town, and then secretly glanced at Zhao Junchen. After seeing no objection, Xu He nodded hesitantly and said: "I agree with the humble post. Governor Wu believes that the Jianzhou Jurchens will definitely take the opportunity to attack, and we should indeed rush to the North Road Defense Zone as soon as possible."

For Liaodong Town, the North Road Defense Zone must not be lost, and taking advantage of this reinforcements to allow Wu Yingxiong and Guan Ning Cavalry to penetrate deep into the hinterland of Liaodong Town can also increase Liaodong Town's resistance capital, which is not a bad thing.

The only thing worth worrying about is that Wu Yingxiong has stated that he wants to unite and command all the armies in Hujiazhuang, and the army in Liaodong Town is also within the scope of Wu Yingxiong's integration. In this case, Wu Yingxiong has the opportunity to intervene in the military power of Liaodong Town, but Xu He believes that as long as Liaodong Town takes careful precautions, Wu Yingxiong will not let Wu Yingxiong succeed easily.

After seeing Xu He express his agreement, Wu Yingxiong turned to look at Zhao Junchen and asked: "Zhao Gechen, do you have anything to add or give me any advice?"

Zhao Junchen shook his head slightly and said: "I am inspecting Liaodong on behalf of His Majesty and the imperial court. However, after all, I am not an imperial envoy with full power and will not easily interfere in the specific defense of Liaodong. Therefore, Governor Wu does not need to pay too much attention to my ideas and make his own arrangements. The arrangement is that I only need to watch and witness."

Zhao Junchen was wary of Emperor Deqing's suspicion and would never directly intervene in the military affairs of Liaodong. Even when facing Wu Yingxiong and the senior officials of Liaodong Town, Zhao Junchen would only use covert means to indirectly guide the situation in Liaodong. But now in full view of the public , Zhao Junchen will not express any attitude directly.

Wu Yingxiong obviously expected Zhao Junchen's attitude. After nodding lightly, he asked Wang Shizhen, the governor of Liaodong, Fang Zhenshan, the governor of Liaodong, representatives of wealthy families from various places in Liaodong, as well as Linghu Guang, Song Dahe and others for their opinions.

The sending of troops to the north was personally proposed by Wu Yingxiong and received the approval of the generals in Liaodong Town and the acquiescence of Zhao Junchen. Under such circumstances, the other forces were naturally not qualified to express objections.

As a result, the dispatch of troops to the north was quickly concluded, and Wu Yingxiong became the supreme commander of the reinforcements with the acquiescence of all forces.

After all, Wu Yingxiong was a battle-hardened governor of Jiliao. After He Yu was killed, no one could compete with him for this position. @ESSENTIAL\/SHUKEG·No mistake first release~~

Wu Yingxiong's expression was still solemn, and he turned to look at the generals of Liaodong Town again, and asked: "General Xu, General Li, General Gan, General Huang, most of the troops stationed in Hujiazhuang in Liaodong Town are We are under your command, so I would like to know how long it will take for you to prepare for the war? Are the logistics materials and physical horsepower sufficient?"

After Xu He and the Liaodong generals looked at each other again, he replied: "The troops under Beiji and others can be sent out to support the North Road at any time. It does not need to be a temporary preparation for war. The physical strength and horse power of the soldiers are enough to support a long march, but ... Logistics supplies are still insufficient and need to be temporarily dispatched from the Jinzhou Camp and various defense areas, which may take some time."...

In fact, in order to resist the Wu family's annexation in Shanhaiguan, all troops in Liaodong Town have already mobilized and prepared for war in advance. Of course, they can go to war at any time, but the insufficient logistics supplies mentioned by Xu He are very clear.

Although ordinary people in Liaodong are extremely short of food, and it is never news that people starve to death, Liaodong Town has a huge amount of Liao salary provided by the imperial center, and on the other hand, it collects and extorts money in Liaodong, but it is not particularly short of food.

In fact, Liaodong Town has been operating in Liaodong for nearly a hundred years. It is easy to transfer materials from various places to supplement logistics, and it does not take too long at all. The military stocks in various places along the way are enough to support Hujiazhuang. The whole army marched to the rescue when needed.

Xu He said this because he wanted to take the opportunity to limit the logistics supplies of Guan Ning's cavalry under Wu Yingxiong, and then let him. (This chapter is not finished yet!)

Chapter 1312. Use retreat to advance.

Liaodong Town has greater advantages.

Xu He thought he had a plan, but he didn't realize that after Wu Yingxiong heard his response, there was also a hint of a plan in the depths of his eyes.

But on the surface, Wu Yingxiong still looked resolute and business-like, and said thoughtfully: "According to the superintendent's speculation, once the Jianzhou Jurchens decide to take advantage of the opportunity to attack, they must have great intentions and will not be as petty as in previous years." Just making a fuss, their primary goal will definitely not be as simple as robbing money and food. It is very likely that they will concentrate their forces and attack one of the two important towns of Fushun and Shenyang with all their strength!

After all, as long as one of these two important towns is captured, the Jianzhou Jurchens can drive straight into the entire hinterland of Liaodong and completely have a strategic advantage! Hujiazhuang is about 500 miles away from Shenyang, and about 600 miles away from Fushun... Even if all the soldiers in the army work hard and travel day and night, it will take six or seven days..."

Having said this, Wu Yingxiong turned to look at Ximen Sheng and asked: "General Ximen, as the commander-in-chief of the North Road Defense Area in Liaodong Town, you have been in charge of the defense of the North Road Defense Area for many years. Naturally, you know Fushun and Shenyang best. The defense arrangements of the second city!

I would like to ask you, in the face of an all-out attack by the Jianzhou Jurchens, and you are unable to take charge personally, how long can the two cities of Fushun and Shenyang persist in resisting? "

After hearing Wu Yingxiong's inquiry, everyone in the tent turned their attention to Ximen Sheng - before that, all the forces had ignored Ximen Sheng's existence intentionally or unintentionally.

In particular, the generals in Liaodong Town had no contact with Ximen Sheng from beginning to end, as if Ximen Sheng was a transparent person, and no one took the opportunity to ask Wu Yingxiong to release Ximen Sheng.

After all, Ximen Sheng and the generals of Liaodong Town are not the same kind of people. Once Ximen Sheng is allowed to regain his freedom, many of the plans of the generals of Liaodong Town will not be implemented smoothly, and a powerful person will be added to the carving up of various benefits. competitor. @ESSENTIAL\/SHUKEG·No mistake first release~~

Therefore, the generals in Liaodong Town acquiesced to Wu Yingxiong's continued house arrest of Ximen Sheng.

You must know that the reason why Ximen Sheng was put under house arrest by Wu Yingxiong was because Ximen Sheng had taken the overall situation into consideration and wanted to buy more time for Liaodong Town. The behavior of the generals in Liaodong Town was undoubtedly to burn bridges and avenge kindness. ….

Therefore, before Wu Yingxiong asked Ximen Sheng in person, Ximen Sheng's face was expressionless and his heart was full of desolation.

But after hearing Wu Yingxiong's inquiry, Ximen Sheng still wanted to take the overall situation into consideration, so he forcibly calmed down his emotions, frowned and replied: "Given the defense arrangements of Shenyang and Fushun, if this general is personally in charge, it will at least be We can insist on holding on for three months, enough to delay the Jurchen soldiers in Jianzhou until they are exhausted! But I can't personally take charge now, and all kinds of variables during the battle are beyond my control...

Therefore, I can only guarantee that Shenyang and Fushun can hold on for at least ten days without being breached by the Jianzhou Jurchens. Other than that, I cannot guarantee anything more. "

Ximen Shengnai is a veteran of the frontier army. At this time, he naturally has to consider the worst case scenario, and he will never dare to brag and guarantee.

At the same time, Ximen Sheng wanted to escape Wu Yingxiong's house arrest as soon as possible, so he couldn't help but slightly exaggerate the criticality of the situation and take the opportunity to show his indispensability.

In fact, no matter in any era, attacking a city is an extremely difficult task. In important border defense towns like Shenyang and Fushun, it is even more difficult to break through the city defenses.

However, after hearing what Ximen Sheng said, Wu Yingxiong's eyes once again flashed with a hint of stratagem.

Wu Yingxiong knew Ximen Sheng's character very well and had already guessed Ximen Sheng's answer.

As a result, Wu Yingxiong's expression became more solemn and he said slowly: "We can only hold on for ten days at the shortest time... As a result, the rush to rescue becomes more and more urgent, and we must seize the time! However, the shortage of logistics and military supplies is also It must be seriously considered..."

After pondering for a long time, Wu Yingxiong seemed to have finally made up his mind and said loudly: "After all, the military situation is urgent and cannot be delayed, so regardless of whether the logistics supplies are sufficient, wait until early tomorrow morning at the latest. All armies in Hujiazhuang are going to attack. * Finished, break camp and head north, seize the time to rush to the North Road Defense Area! As for the logistics and supplies..."

Having said that, Wu Yingxiong said again. (This chapter is not finished yet!)

Chapter 1312. Use retreat to advance.

He turned to look at Zhao Junchen for the first time and requested sincerely: "Zhao Gechen, I also know that you are not willing to easily intervene in the Liaodong war, but after much thought, I still hope that you can take the overall situation into consideration and act according to your authority in urgent matters. , contribute to the Liaodong war! The governor’s idea is that you, Zhao Gechen, will personally go to the Jinzhou Camp in Liaodong Town to take charge of the military supplies for the subsequent war, but I don’t know what you want?”

At this point, Wu Yingxiong seemed to be worried that Zhao Junchen would not agree, and added again: "Because of General He's murder, the Jinzhou camp must have been in chaos, but there cannot be any delay in logistics supplies, so The governor believes that under such circumstances, only you, Zhao Gechen, can personally take charge of the matter and take care of the logistics and supplies... Apart from you, no one in my governor dares to rest assured!"

With Wu Yingxiong's repeated statements, Zhao Junchen originally felt that something was wrong with the situation. Now after hearing Wu Yingxiong's request, he finally understood Wu Yingxiong's true plan, and his expression suddenly changed slightly!

Obviously, Wu Yingxiong had already guessed that Liaodong Town would use the method of restricting logistical supplies, and also guessed that Ximen Sheng would exaggerate the critical situation when he was talking about the defense of the North Road. However, he had always allowed Xu He and Ximen Sheng to wait. The ultimate goal was to use the pretext of preparing logistical supplies to keep Zhao Junchen in the Jinzhou Camp so that Zhao Junchen could not personally participate in the subsequent war!
