Although the Qing army was strictly guarding Yangzhou City at this time and firmly blocking various information channels, Xu Changqing understood very well that Shigemen must have known the situation in Nanjing.

Even if the Shigemen did not want to know, the Qing army would take the initiative to tell him.

However, even in this state, the Shige Department can still make such a statement, which is not something that anyone can do.

This man may indeed have some problems with his ability. He is too nerdy, but he is definitely a phoenix among people, regardless of character or backbone!

...

The letter from Shigemen made Xu Changqing vaguely catch something, and also made Xu Changqing realize a "mistake" he made.

I was still a little anxious when logging in, and I was too eager to take shortcuts.

If I had landed in Guazhou at that time and walked along the Grand Canal, I would have had more choices now.

But then again, if I had walked from Guazhou, there would be no current situation. The Model Army may have suffered a lot of casualties.

This thing is so two-sided.

However, by this time, Xu Changqing also made a vague decision!

Back at the tent, he focused his eyes on a town more than thirty miles southeast of Yangzhou City.

This town is called Qiancun. It is a large family of Qian surname who was born in southern Anhui who accumulated from generation to generation since the early Ming Dynasty. Later, it formed a gathering point outside Yangzhou City. Many wealthy families like to build a small garden there to cultivate their body and mind.

Hui merchants, Zhejiang merchants, Shandong merchants, Shanxi merchants, and some business forces in the southwest and northwest all have guild halls and branches there.

The key is that this town is only about forty miles away from the Model Army camp.

Moreover, there are many villages and gardens of several miles or more around the surrounding area, which are a place where commanders from various Han military flags gather.

As long as you can reach that area, whether it is offense or defense, the Model Army will have more choices and its strategic significance will reach a new level.

Compared with Wang Anshan's suggestion, the biggest difference is also the difference in strategic significance.

Wujia Town is too obvious. It’s just like going to Wujia Town. This is too thin. However, when you go to Qian Village, there is more space to operate in the middle, and you can already covet Yangzhou directly!

And these days, the women's family have been almost recuperated.

However, the biggest problem with this plan is that it is easy to trigger a counterattack by the Qing army, consuming a lot of ammunition, which will cause problems in the model army's subsequent endurance.

After careful consideration, Xu Changqing finally made up his mind to take this path.
