Yi Jing, Fengwu Army General Staff Headquarters
As Ye Mingsheng walked into the conference room, all the senior generals of the Fengwu Army in the conference room bowed and saluted. Ye Mingsheng nodded slightly and then sat on the main seat... ····
After looking around the room and seeing all the generals who should be there, Ye Mingsheng looked at Zhao Han who was standing in the first row and said:
"Let the meeting begin!"
"yes!"
As the deputy chief of staff, Zhao Han received Ye Mingsheng's order and immediately took the command pole and came to the sand table and introduced:
"Comrades, Marshal, according to the news sent from Huainan Jingchu by the Coordination Office an hour ago, the situation in these two places has undergone earth-shaking changes!"
Speaking of this, Zhao Han said with great hatred:
"Xu Zhaojie is really cunning. He did a trick under the eyes of the First Division!"
"He took advantage of the heavy rain in Sanlinyuan to hold back the First Division, and he led his troops to abandon Shunde and abandon all their baggage. He led his troops to return to the south bank of the Nanjiang River by boat. In addition, Hou Zhen from the Chu army was talking to us. During the battle with the Fourth Army, he accidentally died among the rebels. Currently, his deputy general Zhao Wendong’s men are in charge of the 30,000 Chu troops. He blamed all of Hou Zhen’s death on our army!”
"In Jingchu, it is said that Sun Liangyu suffered a serious illness and his life or death is unknown. His eldest son Sun Chenggong has taken over Hanyang! And Wang Dayou, the general of the Chu army, is said to have hid in a stone hill next to Hanyang!"
"The Coordination Office believes that the trigger for this situation is that Sun Liangyu's current physical condition has deteriorated, so in order to allow Sun Chenggong to take over Jingchu smoothly, and also to prevent his high achievements from shaking the master, he is planning to get rid of the Chu army veteran Wang Dayou ····························》
"In addition to preparing to get rid of Wang Dayou, in order for Sun Chenggong to take over, Sun Liangyu is also preparing to hand over Lin Shize's family to the Luo'an court in order to ease the relationship with the Luo'an court and reduce external pressure. Sun Liangyu has been operating secretly in recent months But the news about this matter still leaked out and Lin Shize knew about it!"
"Lin Shize was unwilling to surrender, so he revealed the news to Wang Dayou. After discussion, they decided to strike first!"
"In order to deal with Sun Liangyu, they also contacted Xu Zhaojie and used our army's attack on Huainan as an opportunity to persuade Sun Liangyu to send 30,000 Chu troops into Huainan to participate in the war. They took the opportunity to take over the military power of these 30,000 Chu troops, and finally poisoned Sun Liangyu. Fight back to Jingchu with Xu Zhaojie and defeat Sun Chenggong, whose political power is still unstable!"
"So from this point of view, after Xu Zhaojie's expected ambush in Kangyin went bankrupt, he no longer wanted to compete with our army to recapture Kangyin!"
"The main reason why he made an appointment with our army was because he was worried that once he led his troops north to Jingchu, our army would take the opportunity to attack his retreat, so he wanted to use Sanlinyuan to make an appointment to attract our army's attention and help him march north. Jingchu’s cover also consumes the first division’s few supplies!”
Hearing Zhao Han's analysis, Ye Mingsheng was filled with emotion. This bitch Xu Zhaojie is really difficult to deal with. As long as he sees an opportunity, he will pounce on him like a hungry wolf seeing meat. ······························….
Lin Shize, this piece of shit, is truly worthy of being the first assistant who has been in charge of the Zhou Dynasty for more than ten years. He is really full of tricks and tricks, and he can turn his hands into clouds and rain even when people are dead!
In order to prevent his family from being sacrificed by Sun Liangyu, he used a trick to drive away tigers and devour wolves to create civil strife in Jingchu, giving Xu Zhaojie a chance to devour Jingchu. Under his successive attacks, Xu Zhaojie, who was already on his last legs, naturally would not let this go. An opportunity to turn a profit!
If he were allowed to win Jingchu, he would have the capital to continue fighting with him. Otherwise, with only half of Huainan left, his life would have entered a countdown.
Although he gave Xu Zhaojie a chance, Lin Shize was not optimistic about Xu Zhaojie, so before he died, he arranged for his family to find him and told him all about his idea. He planned to let the Fengwu Army defeat Xu Zhaojie, Wang Dayou and Sun Chenggong. Taking advantage of the confrontation, he took over Jingchu and used it as his
The Lin family's declaration of surrender to the Fengwu Army!
I have to say that Lin Shize's plan was very good. However, the only pity was that what he did not expect was that after the Battle of Yunbin and the invasion of Huainan, the Fengwu Army was no longer financially wealthy, and it was simply not enough to support another campaign to capture the enemy. The battle between Jingchu and Xia has begun!
Thinking of this, although Ye Mingsheng felt it was a pity, he was also a little helpless. He was not a god and could not predict everything like a god.
Nowadays, the Fengwu Army is exhausted. If they want to launch an invasion of Jingchu, they will have to wait at least until tomorrow's spring plowing... ······
Just when Ye Mingsheng was secretly feeling regretful, after Zhao Han finished his introduction in the conference room, a young staff officer stood up and said:
"Commander, I think based on the current situation in Jingchu and Huainan, I think we should provide Sun Chenggong with a batch of firearms!"
Ye Mingsheng was a little surprised when these words came out. He immediately looked at the young staff officer. Looking at his young face, Ye Mingsheng felt a little familiar, but he couldn't remember his name clearly. At this time, Ye Chengze whispered Introduction:
"Sir, his name is Shen Hao and he is the second-class staff officer of the General Staff Headquarters. He has made outstanding contributions in the Battle of Hebei and Yu!"
After hearing Ye Cheng's introduction, Ye Mingsheng suddenly realized, and at this moment, Luo Gang, the first-class staff officer of the General Staff Department, stood up and refuted:
"Sun Liangyu and Sun Chenggong, their father and son, have surrendered to the Luo'an court and even accepted rewards from the Luo'an court. How can our army sell firearms to them?"
Facing Luo Gang's refutation, Shen Hao replied calmly without changing his expression:
"The Marshal once said that there are no permanent friends and no permanent enemies, only eternal interests. I deeply agree with this. I think the reason why the Sun family and his son did not really intend to be loyal to the Luo'an court, they just wanted to Improve the antagonistic relationship with the Luoan court..."
"Although I don't know the specific situation of Sun Liangyu yet, I think he is probably dead now. Sun Chenggong is keeping his mourning secret!"
"Wang Dayou is a veteran of the Chu army and has a strong appeal in the Chu army. He and Xu Zhaojie join forces to join forces. Sun Chenggong will most likely not be his opponent, and Xu Zhaojie is a man with wolfish ambitions. He will definitely not share Jingchu with Wang Dayou. "After defeating Sun Chenggong, he will definitely attack Wang Dayou"...
"And letting Xu Zhaojie take over Jingchu is unacceptable to our army, so I think our army should sell firearms to Sun Chenggong so that Sun Chenggong will not be quickly defeated by Xu Zhaojie and Wang Dayou!"
"The troops of our Fengwu Army are now depleted of men and horses. We are unable to intervene in the situation in Jingchu at this juncture. Therefore, it is in the interest of our army to keep Jingchu in chaos. What our army has to do is to keep Jingchu in this chaos until we wait. After next spring, our army can regain its strength and take Jingchu in one battle!"
Hearing Shen Hao's thoughts, Luo Gang opened his mouth to say something, but finally chose to keep his mouth shut. He was good at formulating specific battles rather than macro-strategies.
After convincing Luo Gang, Shen Hao looked at Ye Mingsheng with great confidence. He believed that his idea was completely in line with the interests of Fengwu Army, and the commander would definitely support his point of view.
Under Shen Hao's gaze, Ye Mingsheng thought for a moment but did not make up his mind. Instead, he announced the end of the meeting.
In Ye Mingsheng's view, Shen Hao's suggestion is indeed a good choice. However, Ye Mingsheng feels that this gamble has just begun. There is no need for him to place a bet so early, so Ye Mingsheng wants to observe and then decide the next step. what to do!
In addition, in order to contain Xu Zhaojie, the Fengwu Army did not only sell firearms to his opponents. Although the Fengwu Army was unable to launch a large-scale war, it dispatched two to three thousand cavalry to wreak havoc behind Xu Zhaojie. Still no problem at all...

Just when Ye Mingsheng was at the head office
When the staff attended the meeting, the Governor's Mansion was also experiencing a turmoil.
Grandma Wang from the General Affairs Department of the mansion handed a thick account book to Pei Zhixiu and said respectfully:
"Mrs. Pei, the house spent nine hundred and eighty-five taels of silver last month. Here is the account book for last month. Please take a look at it!"
After hearing what Grandma Wang said, Pei Zhixiu did not take the account book immediately. Instead, she looked at Grandma Wang in front of her. Although she lowered her head and looked very respectful, Pei Zhixiu could feel that this An Miaoyi's confidant, Grandma, was very disdainful of herself deep down in her heart.
She thought that she couldn't understand this account book at all, and she could handle it by doing whatever she wanted!
Thinking of this, Pei Zhixiu said calmly:
"Put the account books here. I'll take them back later and take a closer look. Aunt Wang, please tell me what was the biggest expense in the house last month, right?"
Upon hearing Pei Zhixiu's instructions, Grandma Wang was a little surprised, but she quickly returned to normal and said:
"Back to Mrs. Pei, the biggest expense in the mansion is the regular money for the ladies of each house and the servants. This part accounts for more than half of the total expenses, 550 taels of silver!"
"Besides the regular money, the biggest expense in the mansion is food. Every day, the kitchen purchases fresh vegetables, chicken, duck, and fish from special channels. A total of 270 taels of silver was spent on this last month... ················》….
"In addition to the money and food, a lot of money is needed for the reception and delivery of the house every month, and the repair of the house. The total cost of these is more than a hundred taels of silver, and the rest is just some It’s all in pieces!”
Pei Zhixiu nodded slightly and said:
"How many servants are there in the mansion?"
Upon hearing this question, Grandma Wang was stunned for a moment, then hesitated for a moment and said:
"There should be two to three hundred people. I haven't calculated the specific situation yet!"
Pei Jixiu didn't take it seriously when he heard this and continued to ask:
"Is there any record at the inner guard and personal guard camps for every ingredient that is brought into the mansion every day?"
Although she didn't know what Pei Zhixiu meant by asking this, Grandma Wang nodded honestly and said:
"Yes! To ensure safety, everything is recorded!"
After getting this answer, Pei Zhixiu asked again:
"The expense account is here, so where is the monthly income of the Governor's Mansion?"
Regarding this question, Grandma Wang did not hesitate at all and said without thinking:
"The expenses are accounted for by the old slave, and the accounts are paid by the eldest lady!"
Hearing this answer, Pei Zhixiu's eyes flashed with an imperceptible strange color, then nodded and said:
[A book-chasing book recommended to me by an old book friend I have known for ten years, @
Feeling the displeasure in Qiqige's words, Grandma Wang quickly said:
"Miss Qiqige, you have misunderstood. This old slave was promoted by the eldest lady, and he only has the eldest lady in his heart!"
"Although Bae Ji Soo is favored by the handsome man, in the end she is just a concubine who was born as a medical woman. She is just like Sun Monkey. No matter how powerful she is, how can she climb over Tathagata Buddha's Five Finger Mountain!"
After hearing what Grandma Wang said, Qiqige nodded with satisfaction and said:
"As long as you have an idea! Bring this month's money!"
Seeing Qiqige talking about this, Grandma Wang respectfully took out a fifty-tael silver note from her arms and handed it over. A slight smile appeared on Qiqige's face when she got it.
After getting the money, Qiqige explained again:
"Hurry up and send the money over next month, don't wait for me to come to you!"
Grandma Wang said with a smile:
"Don't worry, don't worry, I will send it to you early next month..."
(Today’s chapter has filled in the pitfalls of the past few chapters. I hope everyone will be satisfied. I saw that some book friends said that we should write more about Bae Ji-soo. What do you think?).
