Chapter 588 Convincing Li Dingguo

Everyone in the hall stared at the sand table, feeling a little troubled.

Chen Mingxia said: "The Qing army invested 10 troops in southern Henan. Following the agreement between the Qing Dynasty and Nanjing, the total number of troops invested may reach 30. We left 6 troops in southern Henan and 16 troops in Guanzhong. , 5 people are deployed in northern Shaanxi, 3 people are deployed in Hanzhong, 1 people are on the front line of Tongguan and Pujindu. Another 5 people are needed to be stationed in Xi'an. In this way, the number of troops that the king can take away is only more than [-] people The strength of the Qing army will be about three times that of ours."

Gao Yihuan frowned, and looked at Bai Wenxuan, "Wenxuan, can we take the [-] Western troops with us?"

Bai Wenxuan saluted and said: "Your Majesty, if you can persuade Li Dingguo, the 1 Western Army will be a great help. Without Li Dingguo, these [-] troops may not be able to be reused."

Zhang Xianzhong didn't have many elites in his hands, and the 1 western troops brought by Li Dingguo were all elites. If this army could obey orders, then Gao Yihuan would have [-] more soldiers.

Gao Yihuan pondered slightly, "Okay, after the discussion is over, Wenxuan, you go with the lonely king to meet Li Dingguo."

Bai Wenxuan clasped his fists, and Gao Yihuan's eyes fell back to the sand table, "Now it seems that the Qing army is very strong in southern Henan. If we want to win, we need to fight in other ways besides resisting the Qing army in southern Henan."

All the generals nodded their heads one after another, they were just fighting head-on, unable to deal with the huge advantage of the Qing army in terms of strength, the situation was too passive, and the Manchus would only stop when the Qing army was tired from fighting.

For a long time, Wei Jun didn't like to be passive, and everyone immediately became deep in thought.

Li Yan said: "Since we have received the news that Nanjing is negotiating peace with the Manchu Qing, Your Majesty can send someone to intervene, expose this matter, interfere with their negotiations, and prevent Azig from withdrawing!"

Gao Yihuan nodded slightly: "Vice Envoy Fang, you should handle this matter yourself, don't be pretentious. The lonely king hopes to get the real hammer to negotiate peace between the Qing Dynasty and Nanjing."

Fang Jiayu was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood Gao Yihuan's meaning, "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will set off today and rush to Nanjing."

As long as Nanjing and the Manchus cannot negotiate for a while, the Qing army in Jiangbei will not be able to completely withdraw.

Chen Mingxia said: "Your Majesty, the promissory note transactions in Yuezhou must be tightened to reduce the supply of grain in the near future and increase the cost of grain obtained by the Man Qing. Xuan Yiwei must conduct secret investigations on the identity of the grain merchants to avoid the Man Qing. merchants, get food from us."

Merchants are chasing profit. If grain prices are high in the north and low in the south, grain will flow to the north through various channels.This is unavoidable. In the territory of the Wei army, the blockade can be strengthened to reduce grain smuggling, so that the Qing army cannot obtain a large amount of grain and grass. However, Gao Yihuan cannot control Nanjing. There must be many merchants in the south of the Yangtze River who resell grain to earn the difference. .

With the corrupt bureaucratic group of the Ming Dynasty, it is also possible that officials participated in it.

Therefore, the State of Wei could only try to increase the cost of obtaining food for the Manchu Qing, but it was unable to completely eliminate the smuggling of food.

Gao Yihuan nodded, "This is handled by the household department. In addition, the household department has to purchase a large amount of copper, iron, salt, tea, cotton cloth, and sulfur from Jiangnan for storage. Gu Wang is worried that Nanjing will take our set Learn it, it will be troublesome in the future."

Lu Yifang cupped his hands and saluted, "I understand!"

At this time, Li Yan said again: "My lord, this battle must be a huge war of attrition, and the casualties must be heavy. Guanzhong is barren and the people are tough. There are many young and strong in Yongliang. With a little training, you can World War I. I thought that we should dredge the Danjiang waterway, use gunpowder to clean up sunken ships and hidden reefs, restore the smoothness of the waterway, and transport Huguang's grain and military funds along the Han River to Guanzhong Longjuzhai directly through Danshui. With Huguang's grain and For military resources, if the king fights in front, the ministers will be able to continuously recruit relatives and strong men, organize them into small battalions, and send them to southern Henan."

This reminded Gao Yihuan of the story of Liu Bang fighting Xiang Yu in Rongyang, and Xiao He giving Liu Bangyun a steady stream of food and soldiers from Guanzhong.

He was about to sigh in admiration and say that Mr. Xiao is really the lonely king, but he swallowed the words again. After all, Liu Bang is not a good person, and he killed heroes too hard. He couldn't let his subordinates have this association.

"Okay! This is a good strategy! Just follow Mr.'s advice." Gao Yihuan clapped his hands and smiled immediately.

At this time, Gao Yihuan looked at the crowd and saw that no one was raising any opinions, so he picked up the wooden pole, pointed to the sand table and said, "This time, there are two ways to go out of the customs, one is to go through Wuguan, and go directly to the south of Henan for defense. , and then fight with the Qing army to see who can't stand it. One is to go to Tongguan, defeat Geng Zhongming first, and detour to the south of Henan from the flank! The advantage of this is to solve the threat in the direction of Tongguan, and it can draw 1 more people into the south of Henan In addition, it can also prevent the Qing army from changing its strategy and threatening Guanzhong when there is a stalemate in southern Henan."

All the soldiers looked at it, and Bai Wenxuan asked: "Your Majesty, if you go to Tongguan, what will you do in Luoyang? Will there be a delay?"

Gao Yihuan said: "Regardless of Luoyang, after defeating Geng Zhongming in Shanzhou, instead of attacking the city, we will directly detour south and enter southern Henan."

Xu Heihu said: "Then leave Tongguan. The road is relatively easier than Wuguan, and the distance is not too far."

Gao Yihuan was thinking of ambushing the Tartars in the Hetao, but Hauge didn't go south. It was impossible for him to fight the Hetao, so he had to give up.

Geng Zhongming, the deadly reminder, is actually outside Tongguan. Gao Yihuan is best at avoiding the truth and attacking the false, so he happened to take care of him along the way.

"Since everyone agrees, let's send troops to Tongguan!" Gao Yihuan raised his hands high, then clenched into fists, and shouted solemnly.

The generals surrounding the sand table clasped their fists in salute and promised loudly.

After the discussion was completed, everyone resigned, and Gao Yihuan took Bai Wenxuan, Li Laiheng, Hu Dawei, and Xu Heihu to the back house to meet Li Dingguo.

Gao Yihuan was a little worried that Li Dingguo would be unfavorable to him, so he brought a few more bodyguards.

When I came to the backyard, I saw a strong man with a height of seven feet, standing under a dead tree and meditating.

Gao Yihuan met him, paused for a while, then laughed loudly, and walked in, "Dingguo, I'm still used to living here!"

Li Dingguo turned his head and saw Gao Yihuan, his face darkened, "Wei Wang has an alliance with Daxi, when will you let me go?"

Gao Yihuan wondered: "I'm afraid it won't work now! The Western Army was defeated by Wu Sangui in Hanzhong and has retreated to Sichuan. Now there is Wu Sangui blocking the way, Dingguo can't get through!"

A trace of surprise appeared on Li Dingguo's face. Wu Sangui was in the middle of the cracks and could still defeat the Western Army. Obviously, Gao Yihuan did not attack the Guan Ning Army.

For a while, Li Dingguo's face became more gloomy, but Gao Yihuan came over, stood in front of Li Dingguo, looked up at Li Dingguo, and said with a smile: "Back to Sichuan, what's the point of the Han people beating the Han people and harming the people? When a man is alive, he should be ambitious." Eat the meat of the barbarians, laugh and drink the blood of the Xiongnu, and be a hero who exorcises the Tartars and will be famous in history. How about helping the lonely king first, fighting against the Tartars, and doing something meaningful for the world?"

Li Dingguo lowered his head, squinted at Gao Yihuan's big pie face, his eyes met, sparks flashed.
