Xu Changqing had already improved his strategic plan before he was about to leave the city. As the model army set up, Xu Changqing waved his hand and the red torrent quickly advanced towards the northeast.

Mainly, there are mostly fields in the northeast and there are no buildings, so it is more suitable for carrying out such large-scale main operations.

The only thing Xu Changqing didn't expect was...

He just wanted to have a good exchange with the Shige Division. After all, the Shige Division was just now, but suddenly he found that a small and familiar figure had been mixed into the personal soldiers.

Who is this stinky girl Chunni?

After a moment, Xu Changqing and Shigemen informed him, hurriedly rode his horse to Chunni's side, and spat in a low voice: "How come you stinky girl, why are you out of the city?"

Chunni is a little weak and Xu Changqing.

After all, she still owes Xu Changqing something...

But soon the Lord became strong again and whispered: "I just thought it out, but I won't hold you back!"

Looking at her arrogant and silly appearance, Xu Changqing couldn't help feeling a little warm.

This is the difference between women and women.

Like Chen Siyin, she can only be regarded as a pretty canary, and she occasionally passes her time, but Chunni, even in a bad situation, dares to accompany her all the way to the dark.

Let Chunni stay in the personal army and not be too far away from herself. Xu Changqing will soon return to Shige's headquarters.

At this time, the Qing army cavalry around were dispersed several miles away, and they only dared to take advantage of the situation and never dared to come forward.

Xu Changqing couldn't help feeling relieved, and smiled and said to Shi Kefa, "How does the cabinet feel?"

"hehe."

Shi Kefa smiled bitterly, and didn't know how to take on this conversation for a moment.

The men of the Model Army in front of them have obviously adapted to this rhythm. Even if they go out of the city to fight, it is nothing to them, they just think it is ordinary.

But for Shi Kefa, including Shi Dewei and his personal recruitment of this miscellaneous cavalry, he was a little moved.

Even the old fried dough sticks from the Liao area among these cavalry are indescribable for the time being.

What else can you say?

In this world, besides the mighty Haicheng Hou and this model army, who else dares to go out of the city to fight with the Tartars?

Seeing Shi Kefa, Xu Changqing would not make things difficult for him. He smiled and introduced to him the layout of the Qing army in the northeast of Yangzhou at this time.

This is the precious news that the model army's Yebu Suan took a lot of effort to inquire about.

At this time, in the northeast of Yangzhou, there were about 70,000 to 80,000 troops in each unit of the Han army flag, mainly including Ma Guangyuan, Shi Tingzhu, Zu Zerun and other old Han army flag slaves.

Their deployments are all attached to the canal in the northeast section, with a small village about forty miles northeast.

The one who controlled them behind them was Prince Wuying Ajige.

In the west direction of this direction are Liu Liangzuo and Tang Tong's works, and behind them are the worship pictures of the yellow flags.

On the east is Bai Guangen's main force, and Duoduo is in charge behind him.

The main forces of Kong Youde and Wu Sangui's troops are both in the west direction.

The reason why Xu Changqing chose this position was a careful and meticulous result.

When Shi Kefa heard that Xu Changqing had found all these detailed information, he felt a little relaxed and praised: "Marty, compared to you, I only know that I am shallow. But how many miles we are going today? If I met the Qing army early, it would be a bad thing..."

Xu Changqing smiled: "There is no need to worry about the Pavilion. It is enough for us to travel twenty or thirty miles today. If nothing unexpected happens, the Tartars should not dare to come out."

...

I talked and laughed with Shigemen all the way, and the atmosphere gradually relaxed a lot, but the efficiency of the Model Army was not delayed.

By the time of Shen, the main force of the Model Army had already left the city for about twenty-five miles and almost reached the edge of the Qing army's bottom line.

At this point, Xu Changqing would no longer be rash and immediately ordered a large army to camp.

Seeing that the Model Army finally set up camp, the many Qing army rangers around who had been staring at the Model Army were relieved, put their heart back in their stomachs, and hurriedly reported to all parties.

At this time, Dorgon, Dodo, Jirgalang, Ajige and others also quietly came to the main force of the Model Army several miles away and watched from afar.

"What is Xu Changqing trying to do? Did he not want to pass it and insist on fighting with us?! This is not his style. Or is this mischievous person already noticed our intention?"

Duoduo frowned and looked at the battle formation of the model army over and over again.

"It's not like exposure, right? The places where we store water are hundreds of miles away. Their hot air balloons are at most near our camp. How could it be so far?"

Ajige calmly said, and then sneered: "I received the news in the morning that many people from Nanjing went to Yangzhou early this morning. I'm afraid it has put some pressure on Xu Changqing."

"This possibility is not ruled out."

Jirgalang nodded: "In this state, if we can avoid conflicts with the Model Army, we should try not to conflict with the Model Army. Looking at the camp site chosen by Xu Changqing, he is still very clear, and there is a great possibility of being a good person."

Everyone was still quite nervous when they said something, but they were no longer as panicked as before. After all, they had a "trump card" in hand.

More than half an hour later, seeing that the Model Army camp had completely stabilized and many fortification groups had been built, Dorgon summed up: "If the Model Army does not advance, the status quo will be maintained. If the Model Army wants to advance, they will trap them in front of this line of defense! If they want to go over, they have to exchange their lives!"

...

As the model army camp stabilized and piled up the battle stand, Xu Changqing and Shi Kefa came to the battle stand, and left and right, narrating the Qing army's flood storage with Shi Kefa.

"What?"

Shi Kefa, who was about to relax, heard this and his soul was about to fly out of the sky, and he was in a state of trouble in an instant. He shivered and couldn't speak.

Xu Changqing smiled bitterly and said, "Gei, do you know why Changqing insists on leaving the city? In this situation, if we cannot make a choice as soon as possible and achieve results, Yangzhou City will be in danger, and the consequences will be even more unimaginable!"

"Ba, bha, bha..."

Shi Kefa kept slapping his forehead hard, and finally recovered a little, shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Marty, what are you saying, "No wonder the Tartars have been so quiet these days. It turns out that the root is actually here... If Marty, you discovered this in advance, then..."

Shi Kefa dared not continue talking.

Xu Changqing smiled and said, "Gei Department, this matter cannot be disclosed to the public for the time being, in order to prevent it from causing fluctuations. We still have to find a way to break the deadlock."

"call."

Shi Kefa let out a long breath, and a layer of sweat had already oozed out of his forehead. He even bowed deeply to Xu Changqing and smiled bitterly: "Marty, in fact, I actually had some prejudice against you before, but at this time I understood, what is, what is..."

Just as he was about to say something, Xu Changqing interrupted with a smile: "There are old sayings from all departments, we Han people say that brothers work together to cut off gold. Although Changqing is a sensible word, Changqing has always treated the cabinet department as a brother in his heart. The past things have passed. After all, Changqing cannot do everything, and he has to explain it to everyone. We still have to deal with the crisis at this time together!"

Facing Xu Changqing's "scent of Jianghu" with a strong "scent of Jianghu", Shi Kefa not only did not have any disgust at this time, but his eyes were moved to be a little red.

What is the hardest between people?

trust!

What is the most important thing?

Trust too!

Even though there are different paths in literature and martial arts, there are some irreconcilable things between him and Shi Kefa and Xu Changqing. At this moment, Shi Kefa really admires Xu Changqing's courage.

He hurriedly clasped his fists and said, "Mr. Marquis, I... I don't know what to say for a moment. But I still have a sense of my ability. Marquis, but I have a summoning, and I will do my best to do my best!"

"good!"

Xu Changqing was waiting for this sentence from Shi Kefa, and laughed heartily and said, "With this from the Pavilion Master, Changqing will feel relieved. In this battle, we must open a breakthrough and teach the Tartars well!"

...

Xu Changqing and Shi Kefa reached an agreement, and the next thing went much smoother.

Shi Kefa is actually right.

At this time, he really couldn't help Xu Changqing. After all, he wanted no one, no food, and even less money.

But Shi Kefa is called the chief minister after all, and this kind of political effect is still very strong.

Not to mention the foreign and the imperial court at this time, Shi Kefa just stood here, and the model army had a strong sense of justice!

Next, Xu Changqing began to discuss detailed combat plans with Shi Kefa.

Simply put, it is to use the guise of this offensive to build some drainage facilities that are beneficial to Yangzhou.

There are mostly rice fields in Yangzhou, and there are still many places that can do things.

For example, the camp of the Model Army at this time seemed to have built some fortifications on the front, which is relatively rigorous.

But if you look closely, you will find that the frontal fortifications of the Model Army are actually mostly "scramble" projects, which can only play a slight slowdown, and it is difficult to stop the Qing army's real frontal offensive.

But the side is different!

The trench was dug almost the same as the drainage trench.

Of course, when Xu Changqing was busy with the war in Yangzhou, he did not forget his hometown in Shandong.

At this time, Xu Changqing's order should have arrived in Shandong long ago. All cities and villages and towns must have doubled the drainage facilities.

In addition, all river dredging work, dredging and drainage work will be designed and implemented as soon as possible.

However, doing so will require a huge price for food and grass.

At this time, if the normal state is true, the food and grass of the Model Army can still last for more than one month, but the workload of such intensity may only last for twenty days, or even half a month.

Xu Changqing must find a solution as soon as possible!
