    The biggest internal response Wang Fuchen, who was personally planted by the old traitor Wu in the Qing army, finally played a role. He killed Mo Luo, the important minister of the Qing Dynasty who was touted by the descendants of the Qing Dynasty, and the scholar Mo Luo, the main force of the Qing Dynasty.  The granary, cutting off the retreat of the 100,000 troops of the main force of the Qing Dynasty, Shanxi and Gansu, ended up being silent for three years, and it was a blockbuster!  After ten years of sharpening the sword, no one knows it, and once it becomes famous, the world knows it!  The direct and indirect consequences caused by it were so serious that Kang Mazi, who is known as the No. 1 Tatar Emperor of the ages, vomited blood and fainted on the spot when he heard it¡ªand by the way, he helped Fatty Lu kill Kang Mazi's wife and children.

    Kang Mazi couldn't help but get dizzy. At the beginning of the war with the Wu army, the army of the Qing Dynasty, which once reached 650,000, now only the two main forces of Jiangnan and Shaanxi-Gansu can maintain a strength of more than 100,000.  Among them, the Shaanxi-Gansu army with a large number of cavalry is already the only capital for Kang Mazi to stand up against the Wu army in the field, but such a significant and crucial army has turned out such a super traitor as Wang Fuchen,  He teamed up with the old traitor Wu to lead hundreds of thousands of Shaanxi-Gansu main forces into a desperate situation, and forced them to the cliff, facing the danger of the entire army being wiped out at any time. No matter how good Kang Mazi's psychological quality is, he can't stand such a blow  .

    Under the fear and anger, coupled with his favorite wife and son whom he had never met being 'poisoned' to death by Fatty Lu's lackeys at the same time, Kang Mazi, who urgently needed to find a punching bag, naturally set his eyes on the Qing army who had the only advantage.  On the battlefield in northern Jiangxi, Xiergen, the coach of the Qing army in northern Jiangxi, was ordered to enter the army as soon as possible. With the help of the Han brothers who had confirmed their sincerity to surrender to the Qing army, they took down Jiujiang City, wiped out the Jiujiang Wu army and Lu Yifeng's dog thieves, and fought for their own.  Wife and son revenge, revenge!

    Unexpectedly, Kang Mazi's edict to interfere with the tactics of the frontline troops promulgated in extreme anger did not have the slightest opposition among the decision-making levels of the Qing court.  He lost his fighting spirit, and was ready to let Kang Mazi toss about and ignore it, but Mingzhu, Suo'etu and others believed that, given the current situation of the Qing court, it would not be possible to win a big victory to boost morale and inspire people.  If the Qing court fails, it will really be over. Whether it is the morale of the army, the people or the officials, it may be completely ruined!

    Since a big victory is urgently needed to boost morale and inspire people's hearts, the only battlefield in northern Jiangxi where the Qing army completely occupies an absolute advantage in all battlefields is also the only choice for the Qing court.  On the battlefield in northern Jiangxi, the Qing army not only had an absolute advantage in terms of strength, terrain, cavalry, and warships, but also possessed two grandparents, veteran generals Hilgen and Zhao Guozuo, who were so experienced on the battlefield that they could compete with Wu Jun's coach Wu Jun.  Compared with the old traitor.  As for the Wu army, except for the superiority in firearms and individual combat effectiveness, everything else fell behind. The navy that must be indispensable on the northern Jiangxi battlefield is so weak that they dare not even go out of the port.  Hidden danger, if you don't pinch such a soft persimmon, who else will you pinch?

    It is precisely because of this that the decision-makers of the Qing court, including the scheming Xiaozhuang, unanimously supported Kang Mazi's wise decision-making, but the opinion that Suo'etu, Mingzhu and Zhang Ying put forward with trepidation was Kang Mazi.  Mazi has set the time limit for Hilgen, and he feels that ten days is too short, which may cause Hilgen and Zhao Guozuo to behave in a panic and take risks in order to complete the errand.  Fatty Lu, who has heard about it all over the world, can take advantage of this opportunity.  After careful consideration, Kang Mazi finally agreed to double the time¡ªgive Hillen twenty days!

    When Kang Mazi¡¯s two so-called edicts were rushed to the battlefield in northern Jiangxi by eight hundred miles, it happened that the Han Daren brothers sent Itanbu to send Hu Guozhu¡¯s letter to Hilgen. In the reply to the Han Daren brothers, Hu Guozhu was regarded as  The two cousins ??and nephews were scolded bloody. In addition to scolding them for their stupid actions that led to the defeat of Wu Jun, they also scolded the brothers of the Han family for avenging their personal revenge, intentionally spreading rumors to slander Fatty Lu, and trying to lure this cousin  Interfering with Fatty Lu's impromptu decision-making!  In the end, Hu Guozhu threatened the Han family brothers again, telling them to restrain themselves, be honest and obedient, and if something similar to a private attack occurs again, then Fatty Lu does not need to do it, and Hu Guozhu will be the first to kill his relatives righteously!

    After carefully reading Hu Guozhu's reply to the Han brothers, and listening to Itanbu's observation report on the Han brothers, the treacherous Hilgen frowns deeply, and is really not sure whether he should trust the Han brothers.  Or continue to test the two brothers, lest they fall into the tricks of Fatty Lu, nicknamed Oiled Loach?  But at this moment, Li Xu, Kang Mazi's confidant guard, also entered the Chinese army's tent with the two imperial decrees of Kang Mazi. Hilgen didn't dare to neglect, so he hurriedly asked someone to set up an incense table, and personally led the generals to kneel down to receive it.  decree.

    What is the content of Kang Mazi's two edicts, I believe it will not be discussed here.Looking at the various crossing routes across the lake, at the same time, the warships of the Qing army's navy were also dispatched frequently, approaching the water gate city wall in the north of Jiujiang many times to explore the waterway, but they were afraid that the Wu army had concentrated all the artillery on the water gate city wall in the north of Jiujiang.  In the first place, the Qing army navy did not dare to attack the Wu army navy.  And Fatty Lu also repeatedly ordered Li Guodong, the fat man's navy, not to attack, not to give the Qing navy a chance, and to keep the only navy for future use.

    Wu Jun was closely guarded on the west bank of Poyang Lake, while Hilgen was worried on the east bank of Poyang Lake, because the situation was just as Fatty Lu expected, Hilgen really hadn't made up his mind yet, which ferry should he choose to cross the lake and land, the Meijiazhou ferry  Although it is close, it is also the closest to Jiujiang City, which is most conducive to Wu Jun's half-crossing and the most dangerous to attack; although the Nankang Ferry in the south is relatively safe, it is too far away. The route from Hukou to Nankang Ferry is full  The waterway of nearly a hundred miles is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also the Wu Jun navy, which is capable of fighting in the first battle, may find a loophole in the long route and deal a fatal blow to the Qing army infantry on the troop carrier!  Each has advantages and disadvantages, each has its advantages and disadvantages, it is really difficult to choose.

    There are also capable people in the Qing army. When Shirgen brought this problem to the army meeting for discussion, after a lot of talking and expressing their opinions, the generals of the Qing army came up with two solutions for Shirgen: first, order  Zhao Guozuo led the Qing army from Nankang to the north and built temporary fortifications at the Meijiazhou ferry to block the Wu army's crossing army. The Hukou Qing army took the opportunity to cross the lake under the cover of the superior navy.  The second plan is very conservative. Zhao Guozha's army will continue to stand still, and the Hukou Qing army will pull out its camp and go south, camping in the Zhutou Mountain area to the east of Nankang Mansion, and then cross Poyang Lake from Zhutou Mountain. Under the cover of Zhao Guozha's army  Landing across the lake.

    "Let Zhao Guozuo move his army to the north?" Hilgen thought in his mind, "As soon as Zhao Guozuo's army moves, Wu Gou must immediately understand that the old man is going to land in Meijiazhou, and it is possible to set up an ambush in Meijiazhou in advance.  Zuo's army is also more dangerous. It may be blocked by Wu Gou's division of troops, and it may be in danger of being defeated by two routes at the same time. The main force of our army moved to Zhutou Mountain to cross the lake. It is safe, but in this way, Wu Gou also immediately understood  The old man is going to land in Nankang, and he also has enough time to react and adjust. The old man is still in danger of being hit by Wu Gou halfway, and the route is still a bit longer, and it takes too much time for the ships to go back and forth"

    "General, I believe that our army should choose to cross the lake at Zhutou Mountain." Hilgaqi, Hilgen's deputy, said solemnly: "Although it will take longer to cross the lake from Zhutou Mountain, the victory lies in  Safety, even if the army of old general Zhao Guozuo cannot defeat Wugou in the field battle, they can still hold the beachhead and buy time for our army to cross the lake. However, the army of old general Zhao is mobilized to go north.  Zhong was severely injured by Wu Gou, which would not serve as a cover, and may also cause heavy losses."

    Halgaqi's position in the Qing army in northern Jiangxi was second only to Hilgen. As soon as he said this, he naturally won a lot of support, but Hilgen's old fox remained calm and just tapped it with his skinny fingers.  Desktop, carefully calculated and considered.  After a long time, the old fox of Hilgen suddenly slapped the table, and Huo De stood up, gritted his teeth and said decisively: "Send Zhao Guozuo, order him to prepare for the attack, prepare more dry food and horse fodder, and send 10,000 troops to the north in the morning of the day after tomorrow."  , go to Meijiazhou to build a blocking position, and cover the main force of our army to cross the lake and land in Meijiazhou!"

    "General, have you made up your mind?" Hargaqi asked in a deep voice: "Old General Zhao Guozuo's army may be blocked by Wu Dog's troops!"

    "I've made up my mind!" the old fox Xiergen shouted: "In the order, I told Zhao Guozuo by the way that he was asked to prepare for a hard fight. Wu Gou divides his troops to block the attack. If he can rush over, he will rush there. If he can't, he will stick to the spot with all his strength.  As long as he can hold back more than 15,000 Wugou troops, it will be a great achievement for him!"

    "Za!" Halgazi knew that Hilgen was the kind of person who would never change his mind once he made up his mind, so he immediately agreed.

    "Wait a minute." Hilgen called Haer Gaqi again, beckoned him to the front, and whispered in his ear: "Write another letter to Brother Han Daren and tell them that our army crossed the lake.  At that time, whether Lu Yifeng's dog thief sent troops to stop Zhao Guozuo or sent troops to attack our army crossing the lake, the two brothers, no matter what method they thought of or what method they used, they had to stay in Jiujiang City for me.  Leave one of them and a direct army!"

    Halgaqi's eyes lit up, and he quickly and respectfully agreed.  And when the order that Hilgen gave to the Han brothers was sent to the Han brothers, and when the Han brothers despicably and shamelessly presented this order in front of Fatty Lu, Fatty Lu thought about it for a while, and immediately burst out laughing.  Laughed, and said with a big laugh: "Good you Hillgen, good you old fox, if it wasn't for Brother Lu, I was superior and knew your order in advance, maybe I would really fall into your trick! But  Since Brother Lu and I are superior, this time, the person who falls into the trap will only be you, not you, Brother Lu!" (To be continued.
