    ?As the leader of the four generals of the Fatty Army conquering the southeast, northwest, and north, Gao Dejie's record after the Fatty Army captured Jiangnan was actually not very dazzling, and even faintly overwhelmed by Han Daren and Wang Xu.

    But Gao Dejie can't be blamed, it's all a matter of luck. Out of strategic needs, Fatty Lu has never allowed Gao Dejie to drive away the Qing army on the northern front, tied Gao Dejie's hands and feet, Gao Dejie's Jiangnan battlefield  Of course, his physical performance is not as good as Han Daren and Wang Xu who are attacking cities and territories everywhere.  The decisive battle in Huai'an was due to tactical needs. Gao Dejie's team temporarily withdrew from the battlefield, and the limelight was robbed by the fat army infantry led by Wang Xu.  In the Battle of Guide, because of the distance between the roads, Gao Dejie's team arrived at the battlefield late, and the first victory was robbed by the deadly enemy Han Daren.  In the battle of Beijing, although Gao Dejie's partial division entered the inner city of Beijing earlier than the main force, but because he encountered Yu Chenglong's smelly and hard old coffin nail in Baoding, he arrived at the Beijing battlefield five days later than the main force.  The record naturally cast a shadow again.

    But that's the end of it. When Fatty Lu handed Gao Dejie the task of attacking Shanhaiguan and seizing the strategic initiative on the Liaodong battlefield, Gao Dejie, whose brilliance had been concealed by his companions, finally showed his brilliance as the number one general of the Fatty Army.  On the eighth day of the lunar month, he led his army from Beijing and rushed to Shanhaiguan with a large number of heavy artillery. It took only ten days to walk 700 miles.  After joining forces with his right-hand assistant Gao Qi in Shenhebao, Gao Dejie immediately formulated a battle plan, ordering Gao Qi to lead the main force and all the artillery to attack Shanhaiguan Pass, while Gao Dejie himself led 6,000 cavalry and an elite infantry,  Use the cover of night to attack a stone pass.

    Just as Gao Dejie expected, seeing that the main force of the Fatty Army was attacking the Shanhaiguan Pass, and they also gathered more than a hundred heavy artillery pieces outside the Shanhaiguan Pass.  A very important stone pass, but only more than 2,000 people are left to stand firm.  But when the battle was completely dark, Gao Dejie suddenly dispatched engineers to dig out two large holes in the wall of the Great Wall, which had been in disrepair for a long time.  After passing this secondary pass, all the defenders of Shiguan were wiped out.

    Immediately afterwards, Gao Dejie, who was originally born in Shanhaiguan, did not follow the Great Wall to seize the beacon towers one by one. Instead, he chose to lead 6,000 cavalry to ambush at Balipu, north of Shanhaiguan. The infantry outflanked the north gate of Shanhaiguan.  The main force led by Gao Qi surrounded the Shanhaiguan Pass City from north to south.  Fearing that the Shanhaiguan Qing army would be completely annihilated by the Fatty Army, Gao Qi took the opportunity to lead the main force of the Fatty Army to launch a fierce attack. Gao Dejie took advantage of the opportunity that the Qing army defenders had no time to block the north gate of Shanhaiguan, and let the infantry blow open the north gate with explosives.  , took advantage of the momentum to enter Guanzhong, followed Gao Qi's team into Guancheng, the morale of the Qing army collapsed, abandoned Shanhaiguan and fled northward, but plunged into the encirclement circle set up by Gao Dejie in Balipu.  More than 13,000 Qing troops were annihilated, and Boguoduo died tragically in the rebellion. The No. 1 pass in the world, which once made Old Han Wu notorious all over the world, was finally taken by Gao Dejie, the old lackey of Old Han Wu.  return.

    After taking back Shanhaiguan, the initiative on the Liaodong battlefield also fell into the hands of the Fatty Army. Gao Dejie led the army to the north without stopping, and opened the gate with explosives, blasting open the gate of Ningyuan City that was too late to block, and wiped out the Qing army in Ningyuan again  , the last Qing army stationed on Juehua Island, the Fu Lata Department sent troops to rescue, but was defeated by Gao Dejie, but Fu Lata had no choice but to abandon Juehua Island, which was short of food and helpless, and fled to the mouth of Xiaoling River.  , Participated in the famous city of Ningyuan, which dragged down the finances of the former Ming Dynasty, and finally returned to the hands of the Fatty Army, becoming the bridgehead of the Fatty Army's offensive on the Liaodong battlefield.

    Because the navy of the Fatty Army is still in the southern battlefield and has not yet gone north, and there is a serious lack of surface power on the Liaodong battlefield. In addition, the expansion is too fast, and the logistical burden has reached a critical point.  He named Gao Dejie the governor of Liaodong, and ordered Gao Dejie to lead the army to guard Shanhaiguan and Ningyuan City, first to defend the safety of Gyeonggi and Zhili, and wait for the fat man's army to move north  Division built, and then plot to capture the entire Liaodong, completely drive the Qing court back to Tunguska's hometown.

    Fatty Lu really doesn¡¯t need to be in a hurry, and he can¡¯t eat hot tofu even if he is impatient. It took eighteen years for the Qing court to enter the customs, from Shanhaiguan to Yunnan to unify the entire mainland;  The Northeast has completely unified the world and has become an old man in his sixties.  In the thirteenth year of Kang Mazi, Fatty Lu got rid of the control of the old traitor Wu and dominated the south of the Yangtze River. It took more than two years to win one-third of the world.  The era is already considered a very rare miracle, and if you want to speed up, the productivity, technological strength and road traffic conditions of this era will not allow it.

    Fortunately, Fatty Lu is only a little over thirty-four years old now, and he has always been in good health. He rarely even has a cold or fever.?General Han Daren is still attacking and recovering the northern part of Shanxi. It is really inappropriate to go to the battlefield again, let alone start a war with the nominal allies for the sake of territory.  "

    "That's right, my lord, I also feel that it is inappropriate to go to war immediately." Zhu Fangdan also echoed: "The north is initially settled, and a thousand wastes are waiting to be rebuilt. There are still remnants of dogs in the northeast, and the army is also very tired. It is best not to start a new war at this time."  On the battlefield, money and food should be invested in the newly occupied land in the north, and it will not be too late to calmly move south and west after we have established a firm foothold in Shaanxi, Gansu, Shandong, and Shanxi."

    "One more thing." Yao Qisheng added: "Compared to other old men in the Pingxi Palace, General Ma Bao should be regarded as an important general in the Pingxi Palace who is hopeful to win over.  He might be pushed to the side of Guo Zhuangtu and Xia Guoxiang. Now that General Hu Guozhu has been detained by Guo Zhuangtu, the forces of the Honghua court and the Wu clan are roughly equal, and the neutral General Ma Bao is forced to Honghua.  On the side of the Hua court, the Wu clan may not be able to last long and won't buy us much time."

    After being persuaded by Yao Qisheng and Zhu Fangdan, Fatty Lu finally calmed down and began to consider the adverse consequences of falling out with the veteran Wu Jun at this time.  It makes sense, but if this matter is not handled properly, with Ma Bao's personality, it is likely that he will gain ground and make more territorial claims. If he is allowed to fight to the border between Jiangxi and Fujian, Geng Jingzhong  , Zheng Jing and my wolf-hearted brother-in-law, maybe he will wear a pair of pants and join forces to deal with us."

    "Regarding this point, I have an idea to get the best of both worlds." Yao Qisheng said with a smile: "My lord only needs to take two moves to avoid a war with General Ma Bao, but also allow General Ma Bao to see the danger and stop his expansion.  , to curb his inflated ambitions."

    "What's the strategist's trick? Come on, please tell me." Fatty Lu was also dog-faced, turning over as soon as he said it, and asked overjoyed: "Which two moves should the king make?"

    "The first step is to send reinforcements to Fengyang Mansion." Yao Qisheng raised a finger, "It can not only ensure the safety of Fengyang's grain production area, but also warn Ma Bao in a disguised form. If he dares to attack Fengyang, our  The reinforcements are welcome!"

    "This king has this intention, so what about the second step?" Fatty Lu asked again.

    "In the second step, Ma Bao will go eastward and take the initiative to border us, and we will go west and also take the initiative to border him." Yao Qisheng raised his second finger and said with a smirk: "Ma Bao is fighting in Yingzhou, which does not have much oil and water.  , to test our tolerance limit, we will respond to him with the lucrative Anqing Mansion! Anqing City is tightly choked by the throat of the Yangtze River, and if Anqing is captured, our navy can go upstream at any time and go straight to Ma Bao's lair  Jiujiang City, the base camp, can attack and harass his largest grain-producing area, Nanchang Mansion, at any time! These two places are in an emergency, and I see if he still has the guts to expand aggressively!"

    "Brilliant plan!" Fatty Lu snapped his fingers, and said with an even more ferocious smile: "To beat Anqing's mansion is to beat all dogs, and morality means that we are invulnerable, and we can turn Anqing into a dagger, threatening the heart of old Ma Bao at any time.  Let me see if he still has the guts to compete with Lao Tzu for territory!"

    "The city of Anqing is strong and the terrain is dangerous. I'm afraid it won't be easy to fight." Zhu Fangdan reminded: "I believe that when our army marches westward to Anqing, we should focus on recruiting and try to recruit Anqing."

    "We should do our best to appease the governor of Anhui Province, Jin Fu, who is good at controlling rivers. If he can serve the king, it would be great." Fatty Lu nodded, and quickly ordered: "Immediately draw up an order to make Yao Yi the governor of Anhui Province.  Let him lead 20,000 newly formed troops to Fengyang to sit in town, stop the transfer of grain in Fengyang to the north, and leave your son, Junshi Yao, as army rations."

    "Thank you for your kindness on behalf of the dog." Yao Qisheng was overjoyed, and quickly saluted Fatty Lu to thank him, and then asked: "My lord, what about the people who attacked Anqing? Do you want to send a general from Beijing to the south to preside over the war in Anqing?"

    "No need, just send Li Mao, who stayed in Taiping Mansion, and let Li Jiyang lead the Zhenjiang navy to assist in the expedition." Fatty Lu waved his hand, rejecting the suggestion to send a general from Beijing to the south, and said: "It's also time to train some newcomers to be independent.  Yes, I told Li Maozhu in the Jun decree that I played well in the Anqing battlefield, and I will entrust him with more important missions in the future. Also, for Anhui governor Jin Fu, I can recruit as much as possible, and I can promise to Jin Fu  The position of Dazhou Gongcao Yuanwai and Anhui Chief Envoy." (To be continued.
