Wang Siyi was not forked out.

Just kidding, the people in Mao Mansion also know about Princess Wu's illustrious reputation.

Even if they come together, they are no match!

So Wang Siyi sat in front of Mao Yuanyi's bed with a golden sword. Even though Mao Yuanyi was furious, there was nothing she could do.

Wang Siyi is also a natural person and doesn't know what it means to be polite.

"They say that thirty is like a wolf and forty is like a tiger, but you don't weigh it. What kind of body is Lao Mao? Fortunately, his waist is only broken. If he is gone, will you be able to hold your head up?"

The three women in the Mao Mansion were so reprimanded that they blushed and hid their faces in shame. They were really shameless in front of others.

Mao Yuanyi breathed out from his nostrils, he really wanted to teach this woman who spoke so freely.

But think about it again, even if your body is intact, you can't beat others, so you can only suffer.

Seeing him in pain made Wang Siyi very happy.

"Thank you, Lao Mao. Don't worry. Under my command, the Central Strategic Cluster will ensure that we can capture the capital and reach Liaodong. Your name will also be on the credit book by then."

Mao Yuanyi almost wanted to vomit blood.

"I don't want it!"

Wang Siyi threw away the gift and went her own way.

"That's it, I'll treat you to a celebratory drink then. Hahahahahaha..."

Although everyone was gone, the villain's triumphant laughter still echoed in the Mao Mansion, causing Mao Yuanyi to break several of his teeth.

Wang Siyi officially took office.

The generals of the Central Strategic Cluster gathered together, and there was no discomfort with the new commander.

Everyone is already familiar with Wang Siyi and knows Princess Wu's capabilities.

And compared to Mao Yuanyi's elegance, Wang Siyi is more violent.

As a soldier, everyone prefers Wang Siyi's temper.

"You all know that Commander Mao was injured. I warn you again, be careful at home. If anyone is injured or touched again, I will break your third leg."

All the gentlemen present were feeling cold, and at the same time they were secretly awakened.

Just because they know that Wang Siyi can say and do it.

As a general of the Xia army, he was embarrassed to see anyone since he had never been beaten by Wang Siyi.

Wang Siyi is not just talking nonsense.

As the war approaches, all preparations are complicated and all positions must not be missed. This requires generals to distinguish between priorities, so as not to delay the official business.

"What's the current mood across the military?"

Wang Siyi looked at Junzheng Hao Ruyang.

"I heard that there is going to be a war. The soldiers are very happy and have started to prepare in full swing."

Wang Siyi was very happy to learn that the morale of the entire army was high and began to convey the headquarters' plan.

"It will never be too early for our army to be dispatched. It may take a year and a half. As the saying goes, if you make a big effort, you will be exhausted. Once the time goes by, you are afraid that the enthusiasm of the soldiers will dissipate. Therefore, the chief officers of each department After you go back, you must find a way to mobilize your emotions. In addition, do more practical exercises. It takes ten minutes on stage and ten years off stage. Don't pull your hips on the battlefield. I'm going to say something ugly in front of you. If anyone doesn't fight on the battlefield, Okay, I will turn my back on you."

Looking at Wang Siyi, whose face was as cold as frost, everyone returned to seriousness.

Only then did many people realize that what was coming next was not a good family routine, but a bloody battle that would determine the life and death of many people.

Even if it is to protect the lives of more soldiers, no matter how much preparation and investment is required, it is necessary.

"What is the current deployment of the entire army?"

Chief of Staff Sun Yunliang quickly made a report.

"In order to avoid irritating the Qing army, our two main divisions were not mobilized to the front line, but were deployed in Yucheng and Dongchang Mansion respectively. Once we take action, we can rush forward as quickly as possible."

This arrangement made Wang Siyi very satisfied.

"The troops on the front lines of Dezhou and Linqing cannot be too lax, and they must cause troubles from time to time. The Qing army is not stupid. Once we are too calm, they will become suspicious. Keep a certain level of tension, and over time, they will Once you get used to it, your vigilance will drop.”

Everyone praised him for his kindness, realizing that Wang Siyi's calculation of people's hearts was extremely clever.

This person who came to serve as the commander of the central strategic cluster was also unlucky for the Qing army.

On the domestic battlefield, the Xia Kingdom remained quiet, with the focus on the Manchus and Dashun.

The battle location of both sides has been moved to Shanxi, gradually moving away from the capital.

For a moment, it was not Xia Guo's turn to take action.

However, in distant Japan, the civil war has entered a fever pitch.

As the Daimyo coalition retreated, the Tokugawa shogunate pressed forward step by step and soon pursued Okayama.

As long as you cross Okayama, you will enter the territory of the daimyō.

It can be said that this place is very sensitive.

Mouri Hidemoto decided to have a decisive battle with the shogunate army here in Okayama.

After all, the current situation is still very beneficial to the Daimyo coalition.

As the front stretched, it became increasingly difficult to supply the shogunate's army.

Especially not long ago, the shogunate requested the Natsu Kingdom to establish a logistics supply base in Osaka, but the Natsu Kingdom rejected it.

The shogunate had no choice but to travel thousands of miles overland to deliver supplies to the army.

As long as this battle is won, the entire battlefield situation will be reversed.

Mouri Hidemoto set up his headquarters at Caoyuan Temple, and an army of 200,000 was fully deployed on the plains. He also sent elite soldiers and horses to occupy Mustard Seed Mountain, overlooking the entire plain.

Sakai Tadakatsu established his headquarters at Yuqing Temple.

A big problem facing the shogunate's army was crossing the river.

Both sides have equal strength and firepower. If you cross the river rashly without certainty, the shogunate's army will suffer heavy losses.

"We can use the frontal battlefield to contain the enemy and send elite soldiers and horses to bypass it from the north. We do not seek to complete the outflank, but as long as we disrupt the enemy's deployment, half the battle will be won."

Date Hidemune proposed the tactical concept.

The Gangshan area is a rare river-impacted plain in Japan, with only some sporadic highlands in the northeast.

The mountains are not connected, so there are many accessible roads.

Even if there were 200,000 daimyo coalition forces, it would be difficult to take care of all the roads.

This is the opportunity for the shogunate's army.

"Gentlemen, according to the intelligence, the enemy's grain and grass base is set up at Buxi Guanyin Temple. Because it is far behind, the defensive force is not strong. I plan to send a partial division to bypass the northern mountainous area. Take Jinchuan and Miaojiao Temple, Who is willing to take on the important task of sneak attacking the enemy’s grain and grass base?”

As long as the food and grass base of the Daimyo coalition is destroyed, victory is inevitable. It can be said that this will be the greatest contribution of this battle.

Of course, the danger involved is self-evident, and those who go there will most likely not be able to come back.

"General, the final general is willing to take responsibility."

Matsudaira Nobusada stood out from the crowd with a firm attitude.

Matsudaira Nobutsuna is dead, and the Matsudaira family's honor is in decline.

Matsudaira Nobusada knew that only through meritorious service on the battlefield could the Matsudaira family maintain its glory.
