The sun rises very high, and tiny clouds radiate small white waves in the light blue and clear sky. The warmth of light and the joy of victory communicate together, making people feel comfortable all over. {Chinese.

The Fangcheng Port was in a hustle and bustle, and ships of all sizes were mobilized to transport supplies from cargo ships in the distance. A small steamer leaned on the dock with black smoke. Chen Wenqiang and his followers strode ashore and shook hands with the officers who were waiting.

"The anti-Qing hero Wang Heshun has been fighting for many years, which has made the Qing army scared. Chen admired him very much!" Chen Wenqiang intended to change the party hero to the anti-Qing hero. Wang Heshun joined the Fuxing Association for a long time. He must know the views and evaluations of the Fuxing Association for the Party. Although he changed a lot, saying this also eliminated unnecessary embarrassment.

"Brothers used to be a mess. Only after entering the Revival Society did they realize the true meaning of the revolution. Executive Member Chen praised it, but brothers really dare not take it." Wang Heshun was a little embarrassed. After all, in his heart, he felt that his origin was not right, no better than those who were well-known in the Revival Society.

"In the past, it was an anti-Qing riot and rebellion; now it was a revolutionary uprising, and it was necessary to change the world." Chen Wenqiang encouraged with warm words: "Learn, make progress, and work hard. If you have high ambitions, you must keep up with your actions. The headquarters has high hopes for you, so don't let us down!"

"Yes, I will definitely work hard and will not disappoint the headquarters leaders." Wang Heshun was quite moved.

"Qiuj, well, the first female lieutenant in the revolutionary army, I have known your name for a long time." Chen Wenqiang patted Wang Heshun's arm hard, nodded, walked to Qiuj and smiled and spoke.

"Hello, Executive Member Chen. I have long admired your name." Qiuj is not restricted, but because of his personality.

"It's just a false reputation. Hiding behind is not as good as you can go to the battlefield to rush. Do it well, there must be female generals in the revolutionary army, and female cadres in the revival association. This is what you hope for?"

"Yes, gender equality, this is my hope."

"Commissioner Chen, please go to the city!" Ge Zhichu reached out and said with a smile: "With reinforcements and a huge amount of supplies, the Revolutionary Army is eager to show its strength. Just wait for you to arrange command!"

"With Wu Shuai who is planning thousands of miles away, where do you professionals do military work? I am right next to you, the staff officer." Chen Wenqiang said with a smile as he walked: "What is the situation in Fangcheng? Is there a big gain?"

"There is quite a lot of money and food," Ge Zhichu introduced: "We will be escorted to the city later, so we won't get anything."

"It is to fight such a rewarding battle. If you don't have money and food, why should you recruit soldiers and horses?" Chen Wenqiang pondered for a moment and said, "Is there any movement in Qinzhou?"

"There is no intelligence coming." Ge Zhichu said with certainty: "It is very likely that he did not run out to report the news, but this is hard to say."

After pausing, he continued, "If you want to attack Qinzhou, the Fangcheng magistrate who was captured alive would take the initiative to make suggestions, but he just didn't know whether it was trustworthy or not."

Oh, Chen Wenqiang was slightly surprised, but then calmed down again and distinguished between true and false. This is his strength.

In history, after the Tongmenghui launched the Fangcheng Uprising, the magistrate Song Dingyuan did take the initiative to help the rebel army take down Qinzhou. However, Liang Shaoting sent by Beichen killed the whole family of Song Dingyuan in order to avenge his personal revenge. The historical books record that "the rebel army occupied Fangcheng and captured and killed the magistrate Song Dingyuan and his 19 followers. The people applauded."

It is possible to applaud when applauding. Anyway, the people will be happy to cheer when they see the officials and the rich. But if they say that Song Dingyuan is really hurt by the truth, the crime is unforgivable, and the reasons are obviously insufficient. Moreover, killing all the young and old families is a bit too much.

The local officials in the late Qing Dynasty were originally rats in the plywood, with compensation levies on it and people who were furious and resentful under the harsh taxes. It would be great if they were not greedy.

He is a guy who cares about his family and wants to save his life. But if he really joins the revolution, it is still impossible to talk about now.

Chen Wenqiang examined the magistrate Song Dingyuan and listened to his suggestion: the revolutionary army was ambushed outside Qinzhou City in advance, and assigned some soldiers to him Song Dingyuan, and then pretended to be prisoners. He pretended to take the soldiers to escort the prisoners to Qinzhou. Because he was the magistrate of Fangcheng, Qinzhou would definitely let him enter the city. After entering the city gate, he suddenly took down the soldiers guarding the gate and sent a signal. The revolutionary army rushed in, and Qinzhou City could go down in one fell swoop.

"Well, it's feasible." Chen Wenqiang nodded with a smile. Although the plan still needs to be improved in some details, this trick to get to Qinzhou is indeed feasible.

Song Dingyuan was a little relieved and kept looking at the famous revolutionary party with a big beard.

"I know you are the safety of your family." Chen Wenqiang spoke slowly and pointed directly into Song Dingyuan's heart. "No need to say anything about joining the revolution, I will not believe it any more. But if you have made meritorious achievements, such as helping the revolutionary army to take Qinzhou, not only your family, but your life can be preserved. Not only the preservation, but I will also return your property to you, and even arrange a way out for you. Overseas, Vietnam, send your whole family to places that the Qing court cannot manage, so that you can live a safe and stable life."

"Thank you, sir." Song Dingyuan's tears came down. He said this very thoughtful. He thought too well about this retreat.

"Get up!" Chen Wenqiang raised his hand and signaled Song Dingyuan not to kneel down. Then he turned to the Zhou Hua and Chen Chun he brought, saying, "You can take him down. This is roughly the way. Hu can make a mistake and make the plan as soon as possible."

Although all the officers in the Revolutionary Army graduated from military academy, the military academy is not too formal, and the study time is short. It is indeed possible to produce famous generals through actual combat, but that takes time. Therefore, Chen Wenqiang still believes in collective wisdom, and the system of the staff team or the staff will be established in the Revolutionary Army.

"There are still several surrendered Qing generals." Seeing that the people who were about to hold a meeting arrived one after another, Ge Zhichu tentatively suggested: "How about you deal with them after the meeting?"

"Let's have a meeting first!" Chen Wenqiang nodded, "Those guys are escorting first. Now Qinzhou is going to fight down quickly, so I don't care about them for the time being."

It is not easy to persist in the border areas of Yunnan, Guangxi and Vietnam for a long time, and it is not a scattered warrior to roam. Although the patrol battalion has low combat power, its advantage lies in the large number of people. Guangxi can withstand it. What about Guangdong? What about Guangdong? It is transferred from other provinces in total? There are only 1,500 and 600 people. Even if it can be supplemented, it cannot withstand the continuous combat consumption.

Therefore, we must have strategies that must be adhered to for a long time and corresponding tactical strategies. We can not only eliminate the enemy, but also preserve ourselves to the greatest extent, and continue to grow and grow. This kind of development and growth is not about creating thousands or even tens of thousands of brave men. The poor people will be cheering up when they win, and they will be defeated and scattered everywhere.

When the participants entered the house, they formed a large conference table and sat down around several tables. A large map had been hung on the wall, and a thin booklet called "Long-term Struggle Strategy and Tactics" was distributed in front of everyone.

"Where is a book, I have time to read it in the future. Now I mainly listen to me and ask questions if I have any questions and I will answer them." Chen Wenqiang's face was solemn and serious, and his bearded face could not be concealed.

"I'll read the list for you first: four artillery pieces, shells..."

Everyone listened quietly, and the more they listened, the more they became, the more they were happy and excited. They were guns, cannons, grenades, and bullets. With these supplies, the Revolutionary Army had guaranteed their siege and plundering the city and plundering the ground.

Chen Wenqiang's voice did not feel excited. After finishing his angrily, he paused and asked in a deep voice: "In addition to these supplies, there are 200,000 silver dollars. How about it? Do you think you can do something so hard and turn Guangxi upside down and kill the Qing army in fear?"

Isn't it? Everyone exchanged glances with each other, knowing that Chen Wenqiang's question must have a mystery. No one dared to answer easily.

"Don't forget that the headquarters has insisted on you for a long time, and the red flag will not fall." Chen Wenqiang emphasized his tone and glanced at everyone, "The materials seem to be a lot. It is indeed a lot. But this is for your long-term consumption. The next replenishment may be half a year or a year. When the headquarters has worked hard and raised a considerable amount of materials and funds, I hope you are still fighting. Not only that, I hope that the Revolutionary Army has grown and grown, rather than being in the form of scattered soldiers and bravery after a happy struggle."

After pausing, Chen Wenqiang continued: "What are you, the elite, the backbone, the most trustworthy, and the loyal army that Revival will work hard to cultivate. For example, the headquarters is the brain, you are the bones, strong and hard bones. A person only has a brain, only bones, is not complete, not strong, and must also have muscles that depend on the bones. Now, how to grow muscles is hopeless on you."

Everyone listened quietly, only Chen Wenqiang's voice echoed inside the house.

"It is of course easy to fight happily and vigorously. Everyone here is a warrior who is not worried about sacrifice. I believe that the current revolutionary army soldiers are also like this. But I want to say that this is short-sighted, ignores the overall situation, and cannot see the success of the revolution. You may have heard some related remarks before and know that the combat strategy will change, but everyone is not very clear about how it changes."

"Here, I will tell you the guiding principles of future military operations, that is: to preserve your own strength as much as possible and eliminate the enemy's strength. Some comrades may ask, how should we explain the brave sacrifice advocated by war? Every battle has to pay a price, sometimes at a great price, which is not a contradiction to preserving oneself?"

"In fact, it is not at all contradictory. If sacrifice is regarded as the necessity of eliminating the enemy, also in order to preserve oneself, and in order to preserve oneself, everyone can be freed from doubts. Simply put, it is necessary to achieve victory with the smallest sacrifice. The evaluation of victory will be comprehensive, not only to kill many enemies, but also to seize materials, the impact caused, favorable conditions to make up for the loss of sacrifice, etc.."

"Taking this surprise attack on Fangcheng as an example, it can be said that the battle was very good, the price was small, the harvest was large, and the money, grain, and materials were one aspect, and the losses of personnel could be quickly replenished. Although the recruits had to be trained and educated, time was something we could afford. But with a good start, does it mean to keep it? What I mean is whether this Fangcheng should be occupied for a long time, and whether to concentrate all the strength here to resist the various Qing troops coming from hearing the news?"

Chen Wenqiang stopped and stared at them one by one with inquiring eyes.

"I think this is contrary to preserving myself for a long time." Ge Zhichu said with thought: "There are abundant materials and the officers and soldiers fighting bravely. This is certainly a favorable condition, but how many Qing troops have come to attack continuously. We only have one thousand five or six hundred people. How long can we last forever?"

Chen Wenqiang nodded with appreciation and said to Wang Heshun with a smile: "Anti-Qing heroes, tell me how many people and guns were there during the armed riots? What was the only way to deal with officers and soldiers for several years?"

"This" Wang Heshun hesitated for a moment, thought for a while under Chen Wenqiang's encouraging gaze, and said, "There were a lot of people at that time, but not many guns. When the officers and soldiers came, they could beat me and would fight me. If they could beat me, they would run away and leapt into the forest. If the officers and soldiers here were strong, I would go there; if the officers and soldiers there could fight me, I would go to another place."

Some people smiled, perhaps because they thought Wang Heshun was too popular.

Chen Wenqiang smiled and said, "Avoiding the real and attacking the virtual, attacking the east and the west, maneuvering and flexible, and long-distance battles make the officers and soldiers run away. It is indeed a good tactic. If you want to have a happy ending and confront the Qing army head-on, it is certainly brave and fearless, but you are afraid that after a tough battle, your troops will suffer heavy losses, so it is impossible to say that you can last for several years, right?"

"Yes, with the equipment and training of the Rebel Army at that time, it was indeed impossible to confront the Qing army head-on." Wang Heshun nodded in agreement.

"This is the key to the problem. Instead of taking a gamble, it is better to take the initiative to move the battlefield, avoid strong enemies, attack weak enemies, or drag the enemy to disperse, and then wait for an opportunity to eliminate them one by one. In the overall situation, the revolutionary army is weaker than the Qing army, because the Qing court may mobilize troops from Guangxi, Guangdong, and even other provinces to attack; but in a certain area, the strength of the revolutionary army may have an advantage, such as Fangcheng, Qinzhou, and even Lianzhou, so we must take the initiative to attack, expand the momentum, and obtain the capture. But if Qinzhou and Lianzhou are prepared, and there are many Qing troops and are also a strong city, we must avoid the losses caused by attack, or lure the enemy to launch, or attack other places, and wait for an opportunity to annihilate the enemy."

"It is your officer's responsibility to change the combat plan according to changes in the situation. You must do it." Chen Wenqiang suddenly increased his tone and his eyes became sharp. "No matter how many enemies you killed or injured, no matter how brave you are, as long as you violate the general combat principle and ignore the life and death of soldiers for the sake of honor and military merit, you are a cold-blooded general, not suitable for commanding operations, and are only worthy of being a soldier."
