Chen Mu walked into the two doors with complex Baroque decorations pushed open by his personal soldiers. His eyes passed over the generals who stood up to salute on both sides of the long table. The walls at the end were trinity stone sculptures, making the whole room full of religious atmosphere.

He asked the mixed-race natives of the port who used to serve tax officials, which used to be the tax officials' restaurant and banquet room, and at this time of year, the merchants and captains from the southern part of the New World.

Of course, in a longer time, it was mainly used to entertain royal sailing nobles who returned from the Philippines.

These are two crucial routes of the Spanish huge empire, both of which were destroyed in Chen Mu's hands. Only this Spanish-style port residence symbolizes the former sect leader here.

He walked around the long table and stood beside the main seat. The generals on both sides of the long table in the room bowed their hands to salute. After returning the salute, Chen Mu sat on the chairs pulled away by the personal soldiers. The generals sat in succession. Behind him, there were personal soldiers holding the map tube hanging on the wall, just covering the Trinity sculpture.

"General Lin sent someone to send letters. After he found out that Bernard sent troops, the news had not been sent back yet. There were two possibilities."

"Either they are attacking the empty defense of Mexico City, whether by infiltration or by force; or they have been surrounded and annihilated by the Spanish left-behind forces—this is very unlikely."

As soon as Chen Mu finished speaking, Shao Bianjiao laughed out loud. Shao Tingda, who was second-ranked, immediately restrained him. General Manghu then clasped his fists at Chen Mu and said, "What the Grand Marshal said is very true."

This sentence really made Heiyunlong and others laugh.

"What are you doing? This is the truth. Even if there are defenders in Mexico, the guards will be killed by the guerrillas in the blink of an eye."

Chen Mu curled the corner of his mouth and specially distinguished the killing gun from the ordinary bird gun. This is the purpose of selecting killing soldiers who have mastered professional skills during training. On the other hand, there are a large number of ordinary bird guns, commonly known as line infantry.

When this rule becomes common sense in the empire, it has a good advantage in enhancing the country's military mobilization capabilities.

As for the sniper itself, it was not really a great innovation. Before this era, both European countries and Ottomans had snipers who performed precise shooting on the battlefield, and even the appearance of muskets was used for precise shooting.

Faced with the situation of poor accuracy of firearms in the early days, Europe chose to make up for it by square arrays and quantity, while the Ottoman Empire embarked on another path to improve accuracy and range.

The performance of the Ottoman musket is very superior. More than a decade ago, soldiers who served as snipers appeared in the trenches in the siege of Malta.

But there is no concept of snipers. They are more like scattered soldiers in trenches. The sultan guards used a medley gun to accurately kill defenders from a long distance during the siege blockade. The records of the defenders were that dozens of people were shot and killed in a day.

But for Chen Mu, his precise shooter has clearly expressed his purpose in the name of the weapon - killing generals.

The young men equipped with glass telescopes should be worthy of the high cost of using weapons.

The one with the most equipment and killing guns in the Eastern Expeditionary Army was Lin Manjue's troops. Three hundred people were sent to Mexico City, and there were at least thirty killing guns. Who could bear it?

"The three hundred roaming soldiers don't care about it for now. General Lin sent news that he had nine hundred good men stationed ten miles behind the Western Army. He had sent a message to the cavalry left by the Black Cloud Dragon Tribe in the Silver City Tasco, hoping that they would go and rescue."

Chen Mu looked at Heiyunlong, the 'big nephew, and tried not to raise his eyebrows, saying, "Did you still leave cavalry in Tasco? I thought they were all withdrawn."

"I didn't want to retreat when I went back to the Grand Marshal, but Shao Shuai said he was coming to attack the port. At that time, I scared away the enemy in Yincheng, so I occupied that. When I retreated, I left sixty cavalry as a sentinel."

Black Cloud Dragon was so angry that he was dissatisfied when he remembered the sixty cavalry who stayed in Tasco. He turned his head and said, "This Bell is cowardly, he doesn't dare to attack. If Governor A leaks the news to him, he can stay in Mexico until next year!"

"Additional discussion on low posts."

Shao Bianjiao, who was glaring at the quiet for a while, raised his hand and said, "After the battle of the Herrera Legion, Bernard will be scared by us."

"I'd rather accept that he has his own business to consider, and it's wise for him to defend, especially if his king has not made it clear to go to war with us."

Chen Mu also found that his eldest nephew was a little crazy after winning a battle. Facing Shao Tingda's helpless look, he reminded the sick man with a word, and then raised his hand to signal Zhao Shizhen to speak: "Tell me some information."

Zhao Shizhen felt that he was still responsible for Chen Mu's personal secretary. He laughed silently and opened the notebook in front of him, and said to the generals with a pair of dark circles that had not been asleep enough: "The Western Army General may be the leader Bernard, Deputy General Jessus, and our painter draws portraits based on the oral narratives of Western prisoners and sends them."

The clerk of the military office behind Zhao Shizhen sent a stack of portraits to everyone. Zhao Shizhen said: "The Western people's oral descriptions, the painters' hand-paintings, and the craftsmen's engravings. The three processes are not accurate. The portrait may be only three-point similar. As we know, Bernard is a young general and often wears black lacquer, gold thread armor and crosses red silk; Jessus has long shawl hair, that's all."

"If you can observe enemies suspected to be two people on the battlefield, I hope that all generals must use all means to kill them first to establish the victory."

Zhao Shizhen put down his arched hand, stood up and walked to the map behind Chen Mu, gestured and said, "The current information is that the Western Army has a large number of nearly 10,000 troops, which is more than twice the size of our army."

"Our army has more than a thousand personal troops, all of which are all infantry and cavalry; nearly two thousand infantry and eight hundred cavalry, but the good thing is that there are General Lin and nine hundred raiders on the back of the enemy."

Zhao Shizhen said, looking down at the notes and said, "According to General Lin's report, there were two thousand miscellaneous soldiers in the Western Army and hundreds of cavalry. The rear formation was complicated, including merchants, traitors, and prostitutes, and the baggage was chaotic."

"General Fu and Shao Shuai, who had fought with the Western Army, provided two other pieces of information. One was the archers in the Western Army who used bows and arrows and lacked armor. They had strong morale but poor combat power; the other was that the Western Army had very strong combat power, and even if they were caught, they could do one to ten. We should beware of them gathering to trample on our formation."

"There is another one." Zhao Shizhen said, closing the notes and handing them to the follower, and said with a slight stubborn look: "Our army's current construction fortifications will become an obstacle when attacking, and the two sides of the official road are covered with caltrops that cannot be connected to people."

"Our army has two hundred steps to narrow areas where we have fortifications, and one hundred cavalry, infantry, and cannons cannons can quickly pass through according to the Caodian array. It takes twenty-six, twenty-six, and fifty-four breaths. I hope all the generals are ready."
