Aspirations for Nation and Beauty: Chapter 81: Big plan (four)


This is the first time for Lei Cangpu to participate in such a high-level military meeting. As a pariah, he never dreamed that he would be able to enter this magnificent Qin Palace to participate in the meeting as the commander of the Xijiang Navy. Recalling that a few years ago, I was still fighting for the entire untouchable class behind me in the waves of the Atlantic Ocean. The feeling of bumping into walls everywhere is still fresh in the memory of this seven-foot man, but all this is because of the trip to Xijiang. A change has taken place. The heavy burden on the body finally has a clear goal of relief, and my own ambitions have also been displayed. The navy has grown from scratch, from the inland river navy to the ocean navy. In just two or three years, Xijiang has Completed this transformation that many generations or even several generations could not overcome. And Lei Cangpu saw with his own eyes that his colleagues in the army were so jealous that the Lord attached so much importance to the construction of the navy. At this moment, the only thing in Lei Cangpu's heart is There is a saying that a scholar dies for his confidant, and if he can show his skills under such a wise master, even if he is shrouded in horse leather and dies on the battlefield, he will have no regrets.

"The international situation is roughly like this. Now, Ms. Su Jie from the Secret Office will introduce the current internal situation of the empire." Seeing Qin Shuangying's speech ended, Ling Tianfang, who presided over the meeting, hurriedly got up, and specially emphasized the secret Put three words to remind the generals to pay attention to the weight of this newly established unit in His Royal Highness Qin Wang's mind, so as to prevent these guys who don't know etiquette from reverting to their old ways and affect the mood of His Royal Highness Qin Wang who is not in a good mood.

"Now let me introduce to you generals the current situation of the empire that we have, so that you can make a judgment on the future direction of the battle in western Xinjiang." Although Su Jie participated in this kind of large-scale meeting for the first time, but seeing It can be seen that her adaptability is obviously much stronger than Qin Shuangying's, and Qingyue's voice is clear even in the corner of the hall.

"The current situation in the empire is in a state of chaos. Since the current emperor's succession to the throne, the situation in the empire has continued to deteriorate, and His Majesty's control over the army in the imperial capital has been weakening day by day. However, the upper class of the empire is calling for Situ Tai and Situ Biao to take over as the next emperor. It is also rising day by day, especially when Situ Tai is coercing to seize the East China Sea and Jiangnan. The Dorton Kingdom has reached an agreement of intent on forming an alliance. The Dorton Kingdom has already provided Situ Tai with a second loan to support Situ Tai's military operations. According to intelligence, the Japanese are also likely to join this alliance. Once the triangular alliance is formed, it will greatly strengthen Situ Tai's strength. Therefore, Situ Tai is very likely to win the battle for the throne. The plundering policy has also aroused strong dissatisfaction among the industrial and commercial forces in the East China Sea and the Jiangnan area. At present, the hearts of the people in the East China Sea and the Jiangnan area are fluctuating, and the voice of opposing Situ Tai's rule is also rising day by day, and Situ Yuan is also relying on the strength of the Milanese to gain a firm foothold in Quanzhou It has played a certain role in restraining Situ Tai."

"But now only Situ Biao can compete with Situ Tai. Situ Biao currently occupies most of the Wuhu area and Jinhua Mansion in Jiangnan County. With the full support of the industrial and commercial aristocracy, Situ Biao is far superior to Situ Tai in terms of economic strength, but Situ Biao has less than 300,000 troops in his hands, and his combat effectiveness is not as good as Situ Tai's elite troops, so in the military confrontation with Situ Tai At an absolute disadvantage."

"Between Situ Tai and Situ Biao, there is another force, Cheng Dayou, a remnant of the Taiping Army who now occupies the two major areas of Jiujiang and Huzhou. Befriending the business forces and easing the relationship with the landlords and nobles made Jiujiang the most stable place in the entire Wuhu area. After accepting the imperial central government's recruitment, Cheng Dayou worked hard to manage Jiujiang and won the unanimous approval of the Jiujiang gentry. Supported, and took advantage of Situ Tai's southward trip to the south of the Yangtze River to seize Huzhou in one fell swoop, becoming a force that should not be underestimated. At present, Cheng Dayou has an army of more than 150,000, of which three divisions have considerable combat effectiveness. Since the area controlled by Cheng Dayou is in the It is a special position, so Cheng Dayou's attitude is extremely important to Situ Tai and Situ Biao. It can be said that the decision is the key to the two people's ups and downs. But Cheng Dayou is cunning by nature, and his attitude has been vacillating. Biaodu has sent people to contact Cheng Dayou many times, but they have not achieved substantive results, so Cheng Dayou's attitude greatly affects the trend of both parties."

"There are two other forces, Situ Jun and Situ Yuan. Situ Jun currently has nearly 200,000 troops in name, but he only controls the Huanggang Prefecture. Due to logistical difficulties, in fact Situ Jun He has lost control of his army, and several armies have mutinied many times because of food and payment issues, and the entire army system is on the verge of collapse at any time. Situ Yuan is currently living in Quanzhou, and his army has suffered a devastating blow in the Jiangnan Campaign. At present, there are only less than 100,000 troops, and although they have recovered with the help of the Kingdom of Milan recently, it is difficult to affect the changes in the entire Central Plains battle.”

"Of course, the last group of forces is the army under the nominal control of His Majesty the Emperor. Due to the complex forces in the imperial capital, this group of military forces is full of many variables. It is difficult to determine its final attitude. The recent strange performance of the regiment commander Ma Yuanxiang has caused the entire Imperial Guard to fall apart. The situation of Ma Yuanxiang covering the sky with one hand is no longer the same as in the past, and the city guard regiment stationed in the northern part of Zhongzhou has experienced a large number of downsizing in the Battle of Qinghe. Supplements were added, and the combat effectiveness was restored. Yusuf still played a decisive role in the city guards, but his attitude had always been ambiguous. One side. As for the third, fourth, and eighth and ninth legions, His Majesty the Emperor has greater control over these four legions. However, when these four legions were formed, important officials from the central government of the empire also infiltrated and placed personnel in them. These four legions have a certain influence, but the combat effectiveness of these four legions is relatively poor. Compared with the main force of Situ Tai in the north and Situ Biao in the south, there is a big gap. Although there are many in number, it is difficult to play a decisive role in the battle situation. "

"Based on the current situation in the interior of the empire, these are probably the domestic forces that can affect the situation in the Central Plains, and those who can play a decisive role are Situ Tai, Situ Biaocheng Dayou and our western border. Of course, the countries bordering the empire are the same They have a considerable say in the situation in the Central Plains, and you generals also need to take them into consideration when considering."

When Su Jie ended the domestic situation introduction with a melodious vibrato, the whole morning had passed, and it was time for lunch.

The free discussion after lunch immediately turned the entire combat hall into a noisy field of debate. The military generals quickly responded to the question of what role Xijiang would play in the upcoming Central Plains War and what attitude it would take. It was divided into several factions with clear positions, and immediately launched a fierce debate.

The anti-foreign faction headed by Bo Jinchen, Cui Wenxiu, Kang Jianguoshenei advocated not to intervene in the war situation in the Central Plains, but to attack the Kaman people who are currently in trouble, using the Boyin people to contain the Kaman people in the north, and the west Xinjiang. The main forces launched an offensive to seize the three prefectures of Beiyuan controlled by the Kamans. This way, a relatively good and strategic environment can be won for Western Xinjiang. The two richer areas of Heshuo in Kansai can develop in a safe environment. Economy, laying a good foundation for the next step into the Central Plains ~IndoMTL.com~ And this can not only avoid the notoriety of the civil war, but also allow Situ Tai and Situ Biao to kill each other and weaken each other. The moderators headed by Liang Chongxin and Mu Lige advocated limited intervention in the Central Plains War, and supported the weaker side to fight against the stronger side, so that no one could gain absolute advantage and enter the Central Plains. In a stalemate state, when both sides are almost exhausted, they will fully intervene in the Central Plains war and unify the Central Plains in one go.

In addition to these two factions, there is the Southern Movement faction headed by Helianbo Huyanqiu and Wenna. They have the same attitude as the Anti-foreigners in their attitude of not intervening in the war in the Central Plains, but they believe that the threat of the Machihans has already disappeared. After surpassing the Kamans, if the Maqihans are allowed to go through this period of digestion and recuperation, the strength of the Maqihans will take a bigger leap, which will pose a great threat to the future of Western Xinjiang. So they It is advocated that the threat of the Machi Khans should be eliminated first, and that part of the force should be used to hold back the Kamans, and that the favorable situation of the current Nanyang Alliance's attitude change and the cracks in the relationship with the Machi Khans should be used to unite Milan and the Sanjiang Lin family. Launch an offensive from Sanjiang and Rhonesia to completely defeat the Maqihan people, and then enter in a large scale when all parties in the Central Plains battle are almost exhausted.

Although the goals and attitudes of several parties are different, there is one point of view that is generally consistent, that is, it is not appropriate for Western Xinjiang to intervene in the Central Plains war situation on a large scale. Consume the power of all parties involved, so that the Xijiang party can become the final beneficiary. It's just that the three parties have their own emphasis on the methods and the countermeasures that Xijiang needs to take in the near future. Whether to intervene in the civil war and who is the biggest enemy in Xijiang have become the two focuses of the debate.
