Borrow the day to change the day

Lu Xiangsheng sat aside as he said, and only then did he have time to look at the people in the back hall.

In addition to the guards of Marquis Zhongxing, he also found a young general standing on the other side.

Lu Xiangsheng just glanced at it. Zhongxing Hou asked a question, and he didn't dare to neglect it, so he immediately replied: "Master Hou, because the Ye Bushou who was sent out to avoid being discovered by the Liaodong Jian captives, so he didn't dare to investigate deeply. Just According to the information collected so far, there is no main force to build captives along the coast.”

What Lu Xiangsheng said was within Zhong Jinwei's expectations. He nodded and asked, "What about the defection of the Han people in Liaodong?"

"Basically none." Lu Xiangsheng shook his head and replied.He knew in his heart that it was probably because of the last big defeat that the Han people who were enslaved by Jianlu in Liaodong lost the idea of ​​risking their lives and defecting.

The reason why Zhong Jinwei asked was that he still wanted to learn about the situation of Jianlu in the interior of Liaodong from those Han people who had defected.Hearing Lu Xiangsheng's answer, he couldn't help being slightly disappointed.

However, when he saw Lu Xiangsheng's expression of shame after he finished speaking, he said comfortingly: "It's okay, the most important thing for us now is not to expose the recovery of the Denglaiming Army's combat power. Let Jianlu think that the Denglaiming Army It's disabled and has no combat power, so it's better to let Jianlu have no scruples."

"Hou Ye is right." Lu Xiangsheng replied, he understood that only in this way could he surprise Jianlu in the future and win a big victory.

"Then what's the situation in North Korea? Is that Manggurtai still there?" Zhong Jinwei changed the subject and continued to ask Lu Xiangsheng about the situation.

Speaking of the situation in North Korea, Lu Xiangsheng's face was obviously much better than before, and he replied to Zhong Jinwei: "Master Hou, that slave chieftain is still in North Korea, and it has caused a lot of anger. There are many more rebels in North Korea who resist Jianlu than before. The number of North Korean people who fled to Phi Island has also increased compared to before, and they all asked me to send troops to North Korea."

"Oh, North Korea's reaction is completely different from that of Liaodong!" Zhong Jinwei praised after hearing this.

Lu Xiangsheng was a little embarrassed, and hesitated for a while before answering: "After the North Korean army who escorted the food returned to North Korea, they passed back the story of the last war. They have the same opinion as you, Lord Hou, so they are more determined to resist Build the determination of the barbarian to oppress."

"Oh?" Zhong Jinwei reacted as soon as he made a sound, and immediately said: "That's right, look, the eyes of the masses are sharp!"

According to the Korean army, the news that Jianlu gathered a large army, but was still killed and wounded by Deng Laiming's army, and fled. The news became more and more exaggerated. But he was still easily broken out of the siege by Deng Laming's army.

This undoubtedly greatly boosted the morale of the North Korean soldiers and civilians against Jianlu, and also made Denglaiming's army much taller in the hearts of North Korean soldiers and civilians.Many North Korean soldiers and civilians risked their lives to smuggle into the Denglaiming army, and brought a lot of information by the way.

"Master Hou, if our army takes action, I suggest that the North Korean Jianlu should be considered. There are two reasons." Lu Xiangsheng told Zhong Jinwei what he thought before he came to Zhangzi Island, which changed his previous thought of destroying Jianlu. Grain field idea.

When Zhong Jinwei came, he had already considered the two options. If he was fighting the Liaodong region, he would focus on destruction and reduce the supply of food for Jianlu as much as possible; Eliminate the vital forces of Jianlu.

Now that he heard Lu Xiangsheng had a suggestion, he pressed down his plan first, looked at Lu Xiangsheng and said, "Let's listen to Jiutai."

"Lord Hou, one of the reasons is that the morale of the North Korean army and the people are favorable to our Ming Dynasty. When our army leaves North Korea, it is like a fish entering an abyss. It is flexible and free, and the military situation is clearer."

When he said this, seeing Zhong Jinwei nodded, he continued: "The second reason is that Jianlu has done bad things in North Korea. As long as our army goes out to fight, the North Korean soldiers and civilians will definitely stand on our side and attack Jianlu together. The power to stand up is not insignificant.”

After Lu Xiangsheng finished speaking, he looked at Zhong Jinwei, waiting for his comment.

Zhong Jinwei nodded, smiled and said to Lu Xiangsheng: "Jiutai, you are right about these two points, and I agree with them. However, if our army follows what you said, attack North Korea and severely beat the Jianlu in North Korea , there is still a prerequisite.”

When Lu Xiangsheng heard this, he was stunned for a moment, then he understood, and confirmed to Zhong Jinwei: "Master, what is the attitude of the Korean court?"

"Yes, although they succumbed to Jianlu's despotic power and acted as accomplices in oppressing their own people, they are still the government of the Koreans no matter what. If we fight a big battle in North Korea, it is best for their court to come Come forward to invite. Only in this way will it be beneficial to the follow-up anti-captive cooperation."

What Zhong Jinwei said was what Wen Tiren told him when he was discussing with the Chief Assistant Wen Tiren.Otherwise, with Zhong Jinwei's experience, he would not care about these international influences.

As a senior official of Ming Dynasty, Lu Xiangsheng knew more about this than Zhong Jinwei.Therefore, after Zhong Jinwei reminded him a little, he understood.

"Master Hou, I understand, do you want me to send someone to contact the North Korean government?" Lu Xiangsheng asked with a slight frown.

The reason why he frowned was because he hated the incompetence of the North Korean government.The reason why I proposed to contact is because there are many North Korean soldiers who fled to Phi Island, and they have the ability to contact the North Korean government.

Zhong Jinwei shook his head, smiled and said to Lu Xiangsheng: "No, we're not in a hurry. The North Korean government doesn't do anything, so why are we in a hurry? Just let Jianlu continue to spoil in North Korea. The harder the spoil, the stronger the rebound will be. The thing we have to do right now is to prepare with both hands."

In fact, Zhong Jinwei's words cannot be said out loud, if they are heard by North Koreans, it will damage Daming's image.But now the back hall is full of Daming people, and they are Zhong Jinwei's cronies, so naturally it doesn't matter.

Lu Xiangsheng is not a pedantic person, and he will not use any sage's teachings to persuade Zhongxing Hou to change this idea.In the face of the interests of the two countries, Lu Xiangsheng will definitely consider his own country first.

Therefore, he listened to Zhong Jinwei's words and nodded in agreement.

"Jiutai and Liaodong's reconnaissance must continue, but it must be ensured that the Denglaiming Army's activity will not be discovered by the Jian captives. Therefore, it is very important that the troops sent out are not received at night."

When Lu Xiangsheng heard Zhong Jinwei say this, he knew that Lord Hou was going to talk about the reason why he should take it back first.Therefore, he listened carefully to what Zhong Jinwei had to say.

Zhong Jinwei continued to talk about his vision: "Deng Lai Ming's army is familiar with the terrain at night, but compared with Jianlu, there is still a gap in combat power. Therefore, I decided that Deng Lai's army will not accept the night and the troops I brought. An elite cavalry force of about [-] people will cooperate to complete the task of reconnaissance in eastern Liaodong."

Having said that, he turned to the side and said to the young general who had been standing silently: "Introduce yourself to Jiutai."
