Chapter 138 Straight to Texas
He ordered Wang Guangqi to send an order, but Wang Xuejun saw that he did not leave. He asked puzzledly: "Wang Zheng, is my order unclear?"
Wang Guangqi nodded with a smile: "The prince's order is quite clear, and I understand it."
"Then why don't you pass the order?"
"I am joining the army, and I should do my best to provide you with my advice. Of course, as for whether you adopt it or not, it is the prince's business."
Hearing this, Wang Xuejun became solemnly: "Do you have any suggestions for joining the army?"
"have."
"Let's discuss it."
"The prince means that he wants a large army to enter the city?"
"certainly."
"I also agree with the army entering the city, but it is not this small old city, but Texas."
Wang Xuejun frowned: "Speak."
Wang Guangqi continued his thoughts: "If our army enters the ancient city, the Eight Banners of the Qing Dynasty outside the city of Dezhou will come over and block us in the ancient city. Although we have an army of 30,000, we are infantry, and compared with the cavalry, we will be in a passive position whether in mobile or in field battles."
Wang Xuejun nodded.
"And as long as the Eight Banners of Manqing block us here, our rescue in Texas will almost lose its service."
"Why?"
"Because the Eight Banners soldier who stayed in the wild has never been the main force of the enemy's attack on Texas, but is just here to deal with us; the attack on Texas is still the Green Camp. When this situation is critical, the Green Camp will definitely jump over the wall and spare no effort to attack Texas. It has been surrounded for nearly a month. If the enemy is attacking desperately, Texas will be in danger."
"What you said makes sense."
"And as long as we enter Texas and the two armies merge together, the enemy's cavalry cannot attack the city. In this way, the remaining green camps will not be able to take advantage of our two converged groups. Then they will suffer."
"Good idea." Wang Xuejun slapped his thigh: "Then how do we enter Texas surrounded by the enemy?"
Wang Guangqi smiled: "I am a staff officer, and I only put forward the suggestions of Master Xiuzheng. As for how to take specific commands, it is your boss's business and has nothing to do with me."
So he took a step back, Shi Shiran sat on the chair in the cabin, picked up the already cold tea, took a sip as if it were, and then looked at the scenery of the river bank.
Wang Xuejun was choked very much, but what others said makes sense, and he couldn't do anything about him.
Wang Xuejun began to think carefully about how to safely enter Texas.
At this time, Cao Kun, the head of the Cao Gang, walked in: "Prince, is our fleet docking or directly driving to Dezhou?"
Wang Xuejun asked puzzledly: "Brother Cao, can our fleet enter Texas?"
Cao Kun smiled proudly: "It is true that the eight cavalry in the Qing Dynasty are the best in the world, but can his cavalry rush onto my ship?"
A sentence reminded the dreamer, and Wang Xuejun slapped his thigh: "Yes, we won't land. We just took a boat along the canal to the Dezhou Pier. I let him stare at the sea, and there was nothing we could do about us."
Then he said to Cao Kun: "Thank you, Brother Cao, come with me, and the boat arrives at the Texas Pier, I will pay your brother double the wages."
Cao Kun smiled indifferently: "We are all from Shandong, and we are also responsible for defending Shandong. Don't say that the prince will give money with kindness, even if the government requisitions for vain in the past, we will never be vague."
"Thank you, Brother Cao, for your righteousness, but I still have to pay for your hard work."
"I'll also talk to the prince. Our brothers have already discussed it. When the battle begins, as long as the prince needs it, as long as you shout, we will join you in the battle to kill the enemy."
This is the generous Shandong man, and this is the people's hearts that Wang Xuejun has gained since he came to power.
"Take the war to us professional soldiers. As long as Brother Cao sends us smoothly to the Dezhou Wharf, even if you have any contribution, I will report to the supervisor and ask for me for you and the Cao Gang."
The fleet did not stop and continued to sail northward.
But Wang Xuejun ordered all the artillery on each ship to aim at the other side and be prepared for launch. Once the Eight Banners of the Qing Dynasty were blocked, he would be beaten.
Man Dahai had already formed a formation between the ancient city and Dezhou.
According to the normal routine, Wang Xuejun's reinforcements will definitely be stationed in the ancient city. After a while, they will push north to rescue Dezhou.
Then I will give him a dignified formation here to annihilate this enemy.
He was confident in annihilated the 30,000 reinforcements of Wang Xuejun.
The Qing Dynasty was not a boastful word, but was expressed in countless battles.
He had 15,000 iron cavalry. No matter how powerful Wang Xuejun's army was and how well equipped, Man Dahai was ready to sacrifice thousands of soldiers and kill him.
As long as you kill the main force of the Shandong Army, the entire Shandong will become an unguarded area and you can easily win it.
By then, I will definitely not be able to escape the title of Baylor.
As a result, just as he was looking forward to the arrival of Wang Xuejun's army, he ran over without stopping the horse and reported to Mandahai in panting: "Report - the governor, the enemy did not get off the ship and enter the old city, but continued to go north along the canal, and see that the target was to go straight to the Texas Pier."
Man Dahai's head was a little too short: "Why didn't Wang Xuejun play according to the routine? I even stewed the chicken for him here, why didn't he come?"
But fighting is a process of the enemy and us.
The enemy changes and we change: "Send the entire army to immediately kill the canal bank and intercept the enemy."
With the order from Mandahai, the 15,000 Eight Banners soldiers shouted and rushed towards the bank of the canal.
On the plain to the west, a stream of dust suddenly soared into the sky, like a sandstorm, covering half of the sky in a blink of an eye.
And then the earth was trembling with countless iron hooves, and waves appeared in the water of the canal.
A big red flag fluttered high from the dust.
"The red flag of the Qing Dynasty is here."
Cao Kun laughed loudly and shouted arrogantly at the Eight Banners soldiers who rushed over quickly: "What's so great about Zhenghong Banners? Come on, do you swim across the canal and bite me?"
Such arrogant clamor immediately caused everyone on the ship to burst into laughter.
The Dezhou section canal has the influx of the Qinghe Laozhang River and Jinghe River, and the canal is wide and has a large water depth. People can't swim.
What's more, the Eight Banners of the Qing Dynasty were all landslides, so they went into the water and drowned first.
