Chapter 146 The Third Northern Expedition kicked off(2/2)
According to legend, Xu Da, Chang Yuchun and other generals would receive Zhu Yuanzhang's brilliant plans whenever they fought outside.
Even the failure of the Second Northern Expedition was caused by Xu Da's failure to act according to Zhu Yuanzhang's plan and underestimate the enemy and advance recklessly.
Zhu Qi is not very clear about whether history is really like this, but he has encountered such a trick.
But when he opened the secret edict halfway, he was stunned.
The Secret Examination said it very clearly that Lan Yu is good at siege in the field and is not good at naval battles. Zhu Qi has a record of a great victory in the naval battle and many achievements.
Therefore, the eastern army would let Lan Yu take the banner of King Zhu Qi of Liao and go directly to the western Liaoning Corridor by land to conduct a feint attack.
Zhu Qi was going to start from Laizhou on the Shandong Peninsula, cross the sea and go straight to the Liaodong Peninsula, and attack Lan Yu from the front and back. Naha would undoubtedly lose!
To be honest, this plan is very wonderful. Lan Yu has attracted all the hatred. The army produced by Naha will definitely snipe Lan Yu in the western Liaoning Corridor, or "Liao King Zhu Qi".
When he and Lan Yu were in a stalemate, Naha would never have imagined that his authentic Liao King would directly penetrate his back from the sea.
As long as you occupy the victory point on the Liaodong Peninsula, no, it is fast enough to catch the city, and Naha's will definitely be defeated.
However, this strategy has a huge loophole.
Zhu Qi couldn't help but curse in his heart: "How can I fight a hammer? Have you transferred my Lan Yu away?"
………A month later………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
In the tenth year of Hongwu, at the end of March, Penglai.
Ships docked in the port of Penglai.
These were the main fleets of the Ming Navy from Tianjin Sanitation. At this time, under the leadership of Wang Chuanqi, the governor of Tianjin Navy, they arrived in Penglai to meet with Zhu Qi.
Lan Yu continued to lead the army and was named King Zhu Qi of Liao. He continued to accept the troops of the garrison along the way and walked towards the western Liaoning Corridor.
At the same time, the entire Ming army on the North and West lines were in various movements and arrangements.
When Bei Yuan saw such a big movement, he knew that a fierce battle was about to begin, so he naturally started to arrange it early.
The Penglai port was indeed a small place that no one noticed at this time, but it was already filled with 30,000 elite troops in the Ming Dynasty.
This is also the limit of the troops that the Ming Navy can transport at one time.
And now, all these 30,000 elite soldiers are under Zhu Qi's control.
Moreover, except for the four old acquaintances of Zhu Di, Xu Zengshou, Li Qi and Li Jinglong, Zhu Qi had never heard of any of the other deputy generals.
You said it would be good to give me a famous general like Li Wenzhong and Mu Ying. I can "I think so too" from beginning to end, then won't I win!
Alas! Isn’t this killing me?
Zhu Qi looked at the navy in front of him with a little confused sigh. When he saw Wang Chuanqi coming over with a happy face, Zhu Qi reacted.
Then he saw Wang Chuanqi coming over with joy, bowing respectfully, and then saying:
"See Your Highness the King of Liao!"
Zhu Qi hurriedly helped the former One Piece up and asked:
"General Wang, I am just thinking about something I want to ask you."
What Zhu Qi wanted to ask is, will you fight against the city?
But Wang Zhuanqi obviously misunderstood what His Highness the King of Liao meant. He thought he was asking about the second time he went out to sea to find the legendary New World.
Wang Chuanqi hurriedly said:
"I have lived up to your highness and this time I finally sailed to the frozen sea water and brought back several white bear furs.
Oh by the way, that is what Your Highness calls polar bear fur.
But when Mo Jiang wanted to continue crossing the ice cubes westward, he found that the sea current was turbulent, as if there was a force to push the ship back.
Moreover, ice floes can be seen everywhere, which is extremely dangerous and even a large ship sinks.
Seeing that there was no way, I could only come back for now. I am afraid that it would be possible to pass by land and ice as Your Highness said."
Wang Chuanqi also talked about some of his experiences along the way, which were still similar to before.
Those fishing and hunting nations who live in the white mountains and black waters and claim to be the Later Jin Dynasty still welcomed Wang Chuanqi and the others as usual.
After all, it’s just a little bit old.
Shortly after Wang Chuanqi returned from the voyage, he received an order from the Ministry of War of Yingtian Prefecture, asking him to quickly lead the Tianjin Guard navy to Laizhou to stand by.
After he came to Laizhou, he just learned two days ago that His Highness the King of Liao was going to lead their navy to fight.
In Wang Chuanqi's opinion, His Highness of the Liao King is a godlike figure. Naturally, there will be no problems with this battle.
It can be said that he will win.
Only Zhu Qi complained secretly in his heart, before the fight started, you started to start breastfeeding.
Just as Zhu Qi was worried, another general came next to him, saying that he was the general who led the elite troops and was assigned to Zhu Qi's command from now on.
The general also introduced himself, named Jack Ma, from Luzhou. At the end of the Yuan Dynasty, he was originally a Qianhu under Xie Zaixing, a spear army, and later led his army to surrender to Zhu Yuanzhang, and so on.
Zhu Qi showed that the name was a bit strange, and then there was a record of this person in history in his mind.
Zhu Qi's eyes also became brighter and brighter.
Good guy, the historical line is coming!
In history, I led the navy to conquer Liaodong, captured several cities, and then defended the attack from Naha. Isn’t it you, Jack Ma, who was the prefect of Liaodong and later led his army to capture Daning?
Jack Ma didn't know what His Highness the King of Liao was feeling at this time, and was continuing to speak with confidence:
"... The last general thought that with His Highness the King of Liao personally leading us, our army will surely win!"
Zhu Qi raised his hand, slapped his shoulder, and said:
Chapter completed!
