"Your Highness the Crown Prince is thinking about Shandong?"

The battle the next day still did not go on, and the plan was not as good as the change. Although Zhu Cixuan had already planned it, one of the navy warships hit a reef and sank, which affected the transportation in the Yangtze River, so he could only stop.

At this moment, Zhu Cixuan was studying the sand tables across the country in his tent, staring at the area of ​​Shandong. Ye Yun had also followed His Royal Highness the Prince for a long time, so he naturally understood what His Royal Highness the Prince was thinking.

It turned out that when the Wuchang Battle was not successful, Zhu Cilang only allowed the troops near Shandong to carry out guerrilla operations and would never expand the battlefield.

If it was expanded, the court would find it difficult to support the two major battlefields. Now Wuchang has already decided to win and lose. Although there are still many troops left, there is no threat to fighting spirit.

If the Shandong war starts at this time, it will be able to restrain all the remaining Qing army.

Although the Wuchang region is important, it occupies an important position in the overall plan of the Qing court, but Shandong is even more important. Once Shandong is lost, the Southern Ming court will go north and directly threaten the core capital of the Qing Dynasty.

At that time, no matter how many troops the Qing people had, the capital would definitely be the priority.

People like Haoge are likely to be abandoned, which is the result that Zhu Cilang needs. At that time, the two armies of the Qing court cannot take care of each other, and we can defeat each other.

"The opportunity is good now. Haoge's army is trapped here. It is necessary to let Li Guodong and Gao Jie go out for a walk. Whether in Shandong or Henan, even if it is recovered, it can put pressure on the Qing court. At least they dare not send reinforcements to the Wuchang area."

Zhu Cilang nodded and then drew a circle on his position in Shandong. Ye Yun was also impressed by him. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was commanding the war in Wuchang and could also take into account national affairs, at least he did not consider it.

"Li Guodong and Gao Jie are both strong and powerful. The two guys' strong recruitment in Shandong has exceeded the planning of the Ministry of War and are now just right now. If the progress goes well, when we have results, they will probably be able to win most of Shandong."

Shandong is originally a province with a large population, although the population has decreased a lot due to the war in the north.

But if they could give them a bite of food, it would definitely attract many people to join the army, so Ye Yun had nothing to worry about their strength.

Besides, it has been half a year since the last battle, and the recruits have finished training in the training camp. It just takes a war to test their training results. It can be said that everything is ready, but only the east wind is not available.

"Your appetite is too small. As far as I know, Shandong is surrounded by newly recruited Qing green camp soldiers. These people are usually stumbled. It is probably unlikely that you can expect them to defend the Qing Dynasty. If Li Guodong and others plan properly, occupying the entire Shandong is just the beginning."

Although Ye Yun was good at fighting, his vision was indeed not as good as Zhu Cixuan.

After hearing Zhu Cilang's words, Ye Yun was really surprised. His Royal Highness's grand ambitions were a bit too strong.

"Transfer the order to let Li Guodong continue to guard Qufu City, Gao Jie led three infantry regiments and an artillery regiment to capture Tai'an Prefecture."

After Zhu Cixuan finished speaking, the clerk next to him had already written down.

Although Zhu Cixuan did not take Shandong's territory seriously, he had to be low-key in doing things. He took down Tai'an first and saw how powerful the Qing army in Shandong was.

If it is really the same as you guessed, then order the army in Qufu to blossom in full bloom, and move forward in all directions to recover Shandong with Qufu as the center.

There is another order that follows the imperial edict, which is to allow them to properly configure the army according to the experience of Wuchang.

There can only be one-third of the veterans in an infantry regiment, and all the rest must be new soldiers. If they are not given a chance, they will never grow into veterans in their lives.

Besides, there is not much powerful army in Shandong, which is a good opportunity to train troops. As long as these new recruits go to the battlefield for a walk, they will understand the cruelty of the battlefield.

This is an excellent place to train troops.

The imperial edict arrived at Qufu City as fast as possible.

At the same time, the Wuchang war report came. Gao Jie and Li Guodong both looked at the imperial edict in surprise.

If they had not been transferred from Nanjing, they would have thought that what was said above was fake. Two days ago, he said that His Royal Highness had just arrived in Wuchang, and this was the time of a meal, which ruined the 100,000 troops of the Qing court.

The Battle of Qufu was well fought, but the Battle of Wuchang was better. Although the overall victory of the Battle of Wuchang had not yet been achieved, after this battle, there was basically no opposition force in the Wuchang area.

Even if there is, their strength is not our opponent, which means that the Yangtze River Basin has already made great strides towards victory, so they can let go of their hands.

Before, they were asked to engage in guerrilla warfare, and what they were most afraid of was what happened to our army in Wuchang. Once the Qing Dynasty sent reinforcements, they had to rely on the Shandong defenders to intercept them. Now even if they came out, we could handle it.

"General, we are about to revitalize the whole country, and we must have made contributions to the Wuchang area. We can't fall behind."

Gao Jie can be said to be eager to take the initiative to attack, and Li Guodong has made contributions, so he is not that urgent.

Gao Jie looked at Li Guodong, Ye Yun and Hu Qiangjia General Feng. He was as anxious as the ant on the hot pan, but he also knew that he was inferior to these three people, so he had to have military achievements and a blacksmith had to be strong himself.

Now Li Guodong is the main general and Gao Jie is the deputy general here. Even if Tai'an Mansion is recaptured, Gao Jie must be sent over.

Li Guodong looked at Gao Jie's anxious look and laughed out loud. Gao Jie should be anxious now.

I won’t say much about the traitor Liu Liangzuo among the four towns in Jiangbei.

Although Huang Degong made a mistake in the previous battle, his combat application was also considered to be a contribution.

Liu Zeqing has no hope now. He has a long life in Nanjing. He has pursuits, but how can he not be anxious if he has no size? Now he has the opportunity...
