Annan has sent troops to the south before the rebellion. The Gauls have already garrisoned before attacking Yingzhou. The Neon people have mastered the actions of the people. Even this rebellion can be without a prophet, and the ministers can't wait."

Li Hongzhang gave a flattery first.

"Talk about the point!"

Naturally, Wang Guangxu won't float away at this time. It is the understanding of history and mind-reading skills of later generations.

"Shu Chen takes the liberty of the fact that the number of our new army is small, and the other armies are unbearable. As a result, they are scattered everywhere and can only hurt the enemy and can't do much. The current plan is better to gather the new army and fight the Gaul army."

Zuo Zongtang said with a smile.

"Okay! In that case, Shunzi! Take the order!"

"Zuo Baobao led the 20,000 troops to the southwest to cooperate with Nie Shicheng. They must annihilate the Gaul army, and the navy will go north, taking advantage of the fact that the Gaul fleet has not yet been closed to destroy the East Capital Squadron, and wait for the opportunity to fight the Gaul army. I will be of great use after obtaining sea control."

Wang Guangxu felt that the two men's proposal and his own intentions began to send troops.

His idea was that after attracting all the main forces of the Gaul army to North Vietnam, they sent troops to log in behind them, creating a situation of encirclement between the north and the south, so that they would catch turtles in the urn.

The prerequisite for this is to obtain dominance of the sea.

"The emperor! The new army in the capital must not be arbitrarily moved. You can transfer Yuan Kai, or let Zhang Xun lead his troops to the capital!"

Seeing that Wang Guangxu wanted to send Zuo Baobao over, Li Hongzhang said quickly.

"This half-year new recruit of 30,000 people will let Zuo Baobao take 10,000, and it is time for them to see blood. Liu Mingchuan also sent 5,000 people to Annan. Yuan Kai can't move, and the Neon people must stop!"

Wang Guangxu thought for a while and wanted to come up with a compromise.

This is not very good from Zhang Xun's impression of this person, a typical speculator, and the key is that he doesn't have the ability to bet.

Wang Guangxu said this, and the 30,000 new troops were directly liberated from the military academy, and the extra 20,000 characters would naturally be acceptable to them even if they guard the capital.

"As for Jiangxin, Zuo Shangshu bother to find someone,"

After Wang Guangxu said and waved his hand, the two of them retreated.

The next day, Zuo Baogui led more than 20,000 people from Fengtian, and then took the train south to Haichuan for loading.

Because the navy is no longer in the Yellow Sea, so they can only travel by land first. This is to prevent the Neon Man from sending a navy to attack the troop carrier.Although it is theoretically concluded that the Neon people will not launch a large-scale war for the time being, that crazy tribe must have a lunatic. Suddenly it is possible for a war madman to make unreasonable actions. There is no need to take risks.

Halfway through, these people would exchange the five thousand veterans of Liu Mingchuan with soldiers who had just graduated from five thousand military academies.

Liu Mingchuan's troops still maintain a certain scale, reserved for great use.The latest novel www.zuixiaoshuo.net

Zhennanguan.

It is a Xiongguan built between two large mountains.

The Daqing Mountain to the east is more than 800 meters high, and the Fengwei Mountain to the west is more than 600 meters high. The two mountains slope to the south, each relying on several hills.

There is a lot of poisonous fog in the southwest, but the thick fog naturally did not dissipate at this time, and the thick fog is only tens of meters.Everyone in Gaul has long been eyeing Zhennanguan, and with today's very dense weapons, they came here quietly.

Feng Zicai was waiting in front of the pass, waiting quietly. He had already heard the news of everyone from Gaul. This is where he has been operating for many years, and naturally there are enough sources of information.

He felt the heavy responsibility in Nanguan, and immediately adjusted the deployment, moved all the waste away from here, and stepped up to build fortifications to build a city defense.

At the same time, send someone to contact the border residents and live directly at the border residents' homes to be responsible for investigating the news.Feng Zicai has been operating Xiguang for more than 20 years, and no one can match his reputation among the military and civilians. There is no general or border people who would refuse his reasonable request, whether it is voluntary or superficial.

At the same time, the defeated troops in Annan were gathered and reorganized, bringing the number of Gui troops in Zhennanguan to more than 15,000.

According to the mountainous favorable location, Feng Zicai, after repeated surveys, selected the first defensive position near the Guanqian Pass before the Nanguan Pass in Zhennan Pass.

In order to use the terrain to weaken the role of the Gauls many times, if the Gauls want to win Zhennan Pass, they must attack here, and the price of the attack is enough sacrifices.In Feng Zicai's view, even if there are not many guns at Zhennan Pass, it is absolutely impossible for the Gauls to win Zhennan Pass without paying more than 10,000 people.

Feng Zicai ordered the troops to build fortresses near the Guanqian Pass, dig trenches, and even erect a low wall behind the trenches to minimize the Gaul's charge.

"Old father! The Gauls look down on us too much this time, right? It touched a brigade of more than 8,000 people! We were not afraid of them when we opened the battle, let alone guarding the gate!"

Feng Xianghua, the second son of Feng Zicai, said in a happy manner.

"Don’t talk nonsense! This time we don’t have too many cannons. The Gauls will sneak attacks. The heavy artillery will definitely not be able to keep up. Give you a thousand people. I brought Maogui’s cannon to me. If I can’t do it, I don’t have to come back."

"Remember! An arrogant soldier will be defeated! The Gauls have their advantages! Do not underestimate the enemy!"

Feng Zicai was not angry when he heard his son's words.

"Okay! It's enough for me to take five hundred people. Let me leave more people for my father." Feng Xianghua nodded and said, putting away his contempt.

"I can do what I say! Don't talk nonsense! This matter is very important! The Gauls can also realize that it must be a hard fight. When this is not possible, I know you want to keep more troops on the frontal battlefield. The purpose of dropping the cannon is to help your father, and you can save a lot of brothers here."

Feng Zicai explained earnestly.

"Father! I understand! Guarantee to complete the task!"

Feng Xianghua also stopped being hypocritical, and immediately proceeded to make arrangements.

At noon, the fog gradually dissipated, and the Gauls had quietly lurked five miles before Zhennanguan...... ..
