Taking a long breath, Wu Feng, who had a heavy face, glanced around at the generals sitting on both sides, and said coldly: "Everyone has heard it, how the Kaman people treated our captured soldiers, and why did they Dare to treat our soldiers like this? Don't you just recognize that they are stronger than us, can suppress us, and can ignore our existence! No matter how you protest or demand, they can treat it as child's play and fart. What can you do to him? ?”
Angry eyes were like black flames from hell floating in the conference hall, "Haha, but what happened when we defeated them in the battle of Czech and Locke and captured their people? We immediately stopped the abuse and slavery, why? , what? Because they know that we also have negotiable weights in our hands, and we have the qualifications to treat others in their own way! How did we get these weights? Tens of thousands of generals fought bloody battles and fought hard. The conference hall suddenly became silent. The bright sun shining thousands of miles in the sky suddenly turned to overcast. The haze covered the sky and the coldness was pressing. The generals didn't know. Why did the coach suddenly get angry on this occasion? And there was no sign of it. All the generals who were in high spirits could not help but shrink their necks and did not dare to whisper to each other anymore. They listened silently to the coach's words.
Qin Shuangying sat behind Wu Feng uneasily. She found that her Ai Lang's mood seemed to be a little out of control. The originally relaxed and happy atmosphere was completely changed by Ai Lang's few words. It seemed that all the generals and officials were confused. Bai Lai didn't understand what happened that angered this usually approachable coach. She was a little at a loss. Even Ling Tianfang, Xiao Tang and others who presided over the meeting were a little confused. She really wanted to help her lover to calm down. But it was her first time to participate in such an occasion, and she didn't know how to adjust the atmosphere. She had to look for help at Ling Tianfang, who was sitting next door, but Ling Tianfang didn't know at this time. What exactly was the boss's words aimed at? He was just a little dissatisfied and scratched his head in confusion, but he didn't dare to interrupt the coach.
The change in the atmosphere also made Wu Feng realize that he had gone off topic, but even though he had already mentioned it, he had no choice but to make use of it. It was right for the people below to sound the alarm, "We have already experienced the strength of the Kaman people. , everyone already knows that, to put it bluntly, when it comes to real strength, we are indeed far behind, but the Kaman people are our unavoidable enemies. If we want to advance eastward, we must be prepared to face them. Regarding their preparations, I would like to ask everyone sitting here, are you mentally prepared for this?"
Although Wu Feng's voice was softer, his tone seemed to be more severe. The generals were secretly thinking about themselves to see if their division's training had slackened in recent times, and whether their superior's words were vaguely aimed at them.
"Don't think that our westward march to India seems to be an easy victory. Let me tell you, it is because the preliminary work of our intelligence department has achieved excellent results. Our secrecy work has paralyzed the enemy, so everyone will feel that it is very smooth. , not to mention the Indians’ combat effectiveness compared with the Kamans, everyone knows it well. I hope that while cheering for this victory, everyone will not relax the preparation of their troops. Maybe we will face a powerful force in the next battle. Kaman people!" Wu Feng's words were cadenced and filled with emotion.
Wu Feng's last words aroused the expectations of the dull generals. Is there going to be another war soon
He waved his hand a little tiredly, signaling Ling Tianfang to continue presiding over the meeting. Wu Feng leaned back slightly, turned his head upward, closed his eyes expressionlessly, and silently gathered himself.
"Now, I would like to ask Director Jin Ning of the Intelligence Agency to report on the recent activities of Gan Lan and Sun Yuanhui's department." Perhaps due to the influence of the coach, Ling Tianfang's face became serious.
"According to Mr. Li's arrangement, we have recently secretly contacted and conducted work with several regiments under Sun Yuanhui's department and first-level officers of the brigade, and achieved quite good results. Because we are worried about the leakage of information, we are also very strict in reviewing the contact personnel. , the limited scope is also relatively small, and after repeated contacts, we have basically achieved our goal. They have promised that if our army goes to the north, they can defect when the time is right!" Jin Ning couldn't hold back his excitement at the end. color.
The generals in the hall couldn't help but whisper to each other, especially Zhou Tinggui, the guard of Yinchuan City, and Jin Zecheng, the commander of the Yinchuan Garrison Division, were even more surprised. You must know that Ganlan Fortress is like a sharp weapon. The dagger was always pressed against Yinchuan's throat, especially with the Sisluo people behind them. It was like the dagger was smeared with blood-sealing poison, and could stab Yinchuan to death at any time. Sun Yuanhui not only held a heavy weapon, Moreover, the hidden forces in Yinchuan City are even more intricate. Although they have cleaned and investigated many times, the foundation laid by the other party for decades cannot be eradicated in a short time. There are still many secretly lurking forces buried deep, allowing them to It is difficult to sit or lie down.
The two of them were in Yinchuan. Although they were heavily garrisoned, they still stayed on top of each other and maintained a high degree of vigilance at all times to prevent Sun Yuanhui from colluding with the Sisluo people to raid south. If we can solve the thorn in the side of Ganlan Fortress, then the pressure on the northwest in the north can be greatly relieved. If we can form a more stable alliance with the Motes, so that the Motes' cavalry can support them from the flanks at any time, then Taixuan Mansion can handle the threat from the north with ease. All that remains is to firmly defend Taixuan Mansion and withstand the threat from Jiayuguan. It can be said that the pressure on the entire northern defense line can be reduced by most.
Now Taixuan Mansion has begun to strengthen and improve the city's defense facilities under Fielding's suggestion. On the one hand, it has started construction of two permanent large-scale docks ten miles outside the city, which are at the horns of each other with the city. The potential can greatly improve the defense capability of Taixuan Palace. If these problems can be solved, the threats from the two northern countries can be reduced to a minimum. Of course, this is only a relative term. Compared with before Jiayuguan was lost, the situation in the northwest is still much worse. After all, it is just a purely tactical defense. They are always in a passive situation, but this is also a last resort. With the power of the northwest, it is really difficult to recapture Jiayuguan.
"When is the time right?" Wu Feng, who was sitting at the top, asked indifferently without even opening his eyes: "When is the time right? Is it after the capture of Ganlan Fortress or when
"The Director of Intelligence, who was choked by his words, turned red in the face and quickly replied: "My lord, my subordinates have also asked the liaison staff to discuss this with them in detail. They believe that before the current plan is fully launched, this will not be possible. Not sure at all, if the plan is certain. This point must definitely be made clear, and the military will need to communicate and coordinate with them at that time. "Nodding slightly, Wu Feng said no more, raised his head again, and continued to meditate with his eyes closed.
Seeing that the coach had no intention of talking anymore, Jin Ning breathed a sigh of relief and continued to report: "Now I will report some information about the Taiping Army that our intelligence department has. According to the intelligence we have, the Northern Military District of the Empire is currently attacking. After Yunzhong Mansion, there was no trend of going south, and the situation in Cangzhou Mansion was stable. The strength of the Taiping Army in Cangzhou had been strengthened, but it was not obvious; in Qinghe Mansion, the Imperial City Guard Corps was still at the same level as the Taiping Army in Cangzhou. Maintaining a small-scale fighting posture, there has been no substantive contact. Both sides intend to maintain restraint, forming a semi-stalemate situation; to the south, the Kansai Taiping Army has shrunk its main force to Hanzhong and Longdong after losing Jincheng. They look like they are ensuring the two prefectures in northern Kansai. Now the entire Taiping Army-controlled area, especially in Beiyuan, has begun to strengthen its alert. According to the intelligence reported by our insiders, they have mobilized their troops quite frequently in Beiyuan County. There were signs of large-scale military operations, and the number of Taiping troops gathered in Longdong also increased sharply. Not only did a part of the main force of the Kansai Taiping Army move in, but the Taiping Army originally stationed in Beiyuan County also began to move to the southeast of Longdong."
After a pause, Jin Ningcai continued: "Currently, the Taiping Army garrison in Xikang Prefecture in Guanxi only retains less than 5,000 people. It is quite weak, which is particularly doubtful. Xikang Prefecture is sparsely populated among all the prefectures in Guanxi. , the city wall of Fucheng is in ruins, the defense capability is low, and it is easy to attack and difficult to defend. My subordinates suspect that the Taiping Army has intentionally given up control of Xikang Prefecture due to lack of military strength and focuses on defending Hanzhong and Longdong Prefecture."
The generals were silently thinking about what was hidden behind this information, but from this information alone they could only judge that the Taiping Army might take military action. Even Xikang is ready to give up. The target may be Tianshui Mansion to the east of Longdong Mansion. On the surface, it does not seem to have much connection with the northwest, but once such a war begins, it will inevitably cause a chain reaction, affecting the entire empire. All internal forces may be involved, especially how the Linlang family in the south will react, and how should their own side respond, especially since the current intelligence shows that the Xikang Mansion's defenses are lax and are almost laissez-faire. Our side has heavy troops stationed at Partridge Pass. Whether we can take Xikang first is a question that needs to be considered now.
The intelligence agency's report had come to an end. Seeing that the coach still had no intention of speaking, Ling Tianfang had to cough dryly and continued: "Just now Director Jin Ning gave a brief introduction to the situation of the Taiping Army in the empire, uh , here, let me announce something first..." Having said this, Ling Tianfang considered his words before adding: "Well, a decision, Miss Qin Shuangying will serve as the intelligence secretary of the Jiedushi Lord from now on, responsible for assisting the Jiedushi. Let me sort out and analyze the general intelligence work. Now I would like to ask Miss Shuangying to give some introduction to the situation in the empire.
The generals exchanged glances with each other in surprise. They all knew that Qin Shuangying came from the Snow Mountain Sect of the Jianghu Sect, and they were also vaguely aware of his close relationship with Lord Jiedushi. However, everyone knew that Wu Feng had always disliked the involvement of people from the Jianghu Sect. He is not interested in women being involved in his own military and political affairs. Although Qin Shuangying and Yunyi have been serving as Wu Feng's personal guards, this is just a simple private guard job and does not involve anything else. Now that Ling Tianfang has said this, it means that Qin Shuangying has officially stepped from the stage to the stage, and has access to many things that non-core figures cannot. It also means that Qin Shuangying's status has undergone important changes.
However, some people have noticed Ling Tianfang's wording, that is, he used the word decision instead of appointment, and intelligence secretary is also a vague concept. According to the official official system of the empire, there is no such position as secretary. The word secretary Originating from the Western Continent, it generally has a strong personal flavor. The official title that is similar to the position of Intelligence Secretary should be the position of Intelligence Assistant, but Ling Tianfang obviously did not use this formal title.
