Mao Wenlong didn't say anything directly. This time, the Liaoxi generals were obviously playing Gaodi. Gaodi saw that the generals were unable to fight, the new recruits were unable to fight, and there were defenses but no soldiers who dared to fight. How could they be used to build so many forts?

Gao Di's strategy is the same as Wang Zaijin, which is to strengthen the garrison in the inner and outer areas, and to move the Liao people away. As long as you want Jianlu, you only have to go to the place you want, and you only have hundreds of thousands of people. If you want such a large territory, you will have no use. In the end, you have to withdraw it. In order to enrich your defense, not be restrained by Jianlu, and to save expenses, Gao Di and Wang Zaijin's ideas are obviously realistic.

But in the Ming Dynasty, being pragmatic is not as good as being innocent, and being a quarrel is not as good as being fierce. The big reason that censors have fallen into the basket, Wang Zaijin has long been defeated, let alone a higher-ranking high-rank with a lower reputation?

Moreover, Gao Di's moves were too fierce and he wanted to do all the package of things, which made him angry with the Liaoxi generals. These guys are not warlords yet, so they dare not mutiny or disobey, but it is still easy to do some tricks. Just like when Ma Shilong sent troops to Liuhe, Jinguan's water camp was repaired for more than ten days but did not send troops. Similar tricks were too easy. This time Nuerhaci came to fight Liaoxi. For these generals, it was a sleepy encounter with a pillow. Who would really fight? Not to mention not being able to fight hard, even if they really fight, they would not be able to fight.

Mao Wenlong continued: "Ningyuan will return as soon as possible no matter whether he can get out or not. Why? Because we are quarreling behind him, he doesn't know that we are going to retreat. He only knows that there are our people in Shenyang. Liaonan is unstable, and his hometown Hetuala is not stable behind him. In order to stabilize the rear, he can only withdraw his troops. To be honest, if he really enters the closing gate, I, Mao Wenlong, will not leave. The entire army will not leave even if he starves to death. He has to conquer the three camps, take Hetuala and enter Fushun Pass, and threaten Shenyang and Liaoyang!"

"Ship Mao is mighty!"

Mao Chenglu shouted first, Chen Jisheng quickly followed, and then all the generals and Needymen, and then all the soldiers roared angrily. The roar echoed in the mountains and forests, flew away a large number of birds, and fell a lot of snow on the dead branches. It seemed that the roar triggered a response from heaven, and the sky was filled with snow.

...

"Mao Shuai is interesting."

After dark, people in Liaodong were too lazy to go out again. The north wind was howling and the wind was like a knife. Although the first month was about to come out, the weather was still quite cold.

Cheng Fang and Zhao Lide haven't met for a long time. Taking advantage of Cheng Fang's business trip to Kuandian, the two also gathered in Zhao Lide's house.

Zhao Lide did not invite Yang Yi, and the two were not very inconsistent when they were in the Thirteen Mountains. Yang Yi was too upright and Zhao Lide felt that this person looked like Erleenzi and was not worth dating.

Yang Yi felt that Zhao Lide was too gloomy and was not a good material. The two of them would definitely not have private friendship except for official exchanges.

Zhao Lide commented and then laughed and scolded: "Mao Shuai is very good at playing this trick. He didn't eat anymore and didn't get it. He miscalculated and ignored the defensive ability of the three villages and suffered a great loss. As a result, he was encouraged in public. The people below also felt that Dongjiang Town had made great contributions this time, and his morale became high, so it would be no longer important to have hunger for a few meals."

"I'm afraid of being hungry for a few meals." Cheng Fang twisted a fried peanut into his mouth. It's rare to have such dishes these days. After all, oil is a rare luxury. Many people eat steamed cakes and pickled vegetarian dishes. Even if there is salt, even if there is delicious food, except for wealthy families, there will be no people who always have oil. Whether it is the meat oil boiled on animals or the vegetarian oil squeezed from rapeseed, it is quite expensive and rare.

"It's not stopping." Zhao Lide said: "When the troops were sent, the food in Dongjiang Town was tense. This time, 50,000 or 60,000 people were dispatched to march in three directions. If you make such a big move, you will definitely not have enough food. This time, you will not starve to death on the road, and you will definitely starve to death before the Qingming Festival."

Zhao Lide sneered: "In two months, you can see if these mighty people who call Mao Shuai Mao, will they complain in their hearts if they don't say it?"

Cheng Fang smiled and said, "Do you think the court will not supply this place?"

"Of course the imperial court will give it, but the officials in Denglai, Mao Wenlong and Dongjiang Town are not dealing with each other. Who said that Dongjiang Lan is so embarrassed that the people in Dongjiang Lan are so embarrassed that the officials there are now all angry with Mao Wenlong."

Zhao Lide kept sneering when he said that Dongjiang and Hutchison were not so harmonious. There were frequent frictions between the two sides, and Zhao Lide had long disliked the situation in Dongjiang Town.

Cheng Fang said: "What do you mean that the supply in Denglai will be delayed?"

"That's for sure, it's probably a lot of people who will die."

Cheng Fang thought for a while and said, "Then we can consider allocating some of our food to them."

Zhao Lide glared and said, "You are crazy, what can I do to Mao Wenlong? He doesn't even say a word thank you."

"I know this too." Cheng Fang smiled and said, "Mao Wenlong will definitely downplay this matter and will not even publicize it to the people below, but we still have to do this. Wen Zhongfa will agree and even take the initiative to mention it."

“Why?”

"If we want to send troops this time, Hetuala will definitely fight." Cheng Fang said slowly: "The soldiers are very confident in their strength, and we are also very confident. But for the overall overall situation of the military department, we can only hold our troops. This will ruin our morale. There are many Liao people in our army, and they must also think about revenge and attacking Jianlu. If we don't send troops this time, they will think about not going out next time? Recently, under the constraints of the military department, we have rarely even had small-scale frictions. In addition, this war is not only a dampening of morale, but many soldiers will doubt what our purpose is. In the current situation, many people will suspect that we will deliberately weaken Dongjiang and fight with Dongjiang Town. Mao Wenlong and others will definitely have this kind of worry when they return to Pi Island. Maybe they will think about taking action first..."

Cheng Fang made a hand gesture to stop Zhao Lide from interrupting and continued: "Of course we are not afraid of Dongjiang Town taking action. If we really fight, we will flatten Pi Island within a few days. But so what, what will the soldiers below think? What is the justice of our team?"

When Cheng Fang saw Zhao Lide sneering, he also smiled. Outside the door was the howling north wind, the room was quite warm, filled with the aroma of wine and food. The two men stared at each other, one smiled and the other sneered, and the scene was quite strange.
