    It was already late at night, and the lights in Xishui Pavilion were still brightly lit. The people in the Staff Department were still working on the battle plan all night long. In the small study next to it, Xiao Yungui sat on a chair and stared blankly at the map hanging on the wall.  Since his rebirth, his modern soul has been perfectly integrated with Xiao Chaogui's memory. Coupled with the subsequent continuous battles, Xiao Yungui has become more mature.

    In the past, Xiao Yungui always thought that in those war movies in movies and TV, the plots in which military commanders of one side often stayed looking at maps for hours were fabricated. What¡¯s so good about just a map?  But he now understands that after brutal actual combat and commanding large corps wars, Xiao Yungui has also developed the habit of reading maps.  The comparison of enemy and enemy forces marked on the map, together with the enemy equipment information sent by the Intelligence Department and Bai Zetang, can form a imaginary map of the battlefield in Xiao Yungui's mind.  When landing in Guangzhou, how many troops we can mobilize, what problems we will encounter, how much supplies we need to mobilize, etc. will gradually take shape in our minds.  Then there were how to suppress the Qing army's forts at the landing site, how to project troops, how to deploy troops, etc. These pictures flashed in Xiao Yungui's mind one by one.

    After capturing Guangzhou, how to continue sweeping Guangdong, how to march into Guangxi, how to capture Yunnan and Guizhou, these strategic arrangements appeared in Xiao Yungui's mind like a clear picture after staring at the map for a long time.  Xiao Yungui is like a chess player, holding the entire chess game in his mind, and then conducting various deductions: how his side will move, how the enemy will respond, and how his side will counterattack. After repeated deductions and comparisons, Xiao Yungui  Can gradually clarify the entire strategic plan.

    Xiao Yungui himself didn't know that reading maps and formulating strategies meant that he had transformed from a simple battle commander into a strategist who took charge of the overall situation. With the help of Zuo Zongtang and Hong Yun'er, he eradicated the old forces in Tianjing.  s method.  Let him become more politically proficient.

    When Xiao Yungui looked at Dali, Yunnan, he couldn't help but frown, and his expression became serious.

    "Eat something. You've been sitting and looking at the map since dinner, so it's time to take a rest." Hong Yun'er's delicate voice sounded from behind. I don't know when she entered the room. Xiao Yungui was really too excited.  Too trance-like.

    "Let's leave it alone for now." Xiao Yungui glanced at her slightly, then continued to stare at the map.  Hong Yun'er put down the food box in her hand, placed some special snacks in the food box, and walked behind Xiao Yungui.  She gently held his neck from behind and asked softly: "Are you still worried about the landing in Guangzhou?"

    Xiao Yungui shook his head and said nothing.  Hong Yun'er followed his gaze to the map and found Xiao Yungui staring at the Yunnan section. She whispered, "Are you worried about Du Wenxiu in Dali?"

    Xiao Yungui nodded heavily and said: "The situation over there is more complicated, with various ethnic groups living together. Moreover, although Du Wenxiu was said to be following the orders of the Kingdom of Heaven after he raised his army, he restored the Ming Dynasty clothes and claimed to be Grand Marshal, but he didn't know  Can Lu Fan influence him?"

    Hong Yun'er smiled slightly and said: "Du Wenxiu persisted for eighteen years after the uprising in history. Although he is a Hui, he respects the religious beliefs and customs of all ethnic groups. The ethnic group is divided into three religions, each with its own roots and each doing its own thing."  Everyone should be treated equally. No bullying is allowed. Offenders will be punished regardless of officers and soldiers. And before Lu Fan returns to Yunnan this time, you and I have repeatedly told him how to resolve the conflicts between the various ethnic groups. I believe that Du Wenxiu and Lu Fan  Working together can stabilize the situation."

    Xiao Yungui frowned and said: "You only think about the present, I am worried about the future. Have you forgotten that there will be bigger chaos in Shaanxi and Gansu in a few years?"

    Of course Hong Yun'er remembers the tragic Shaanxi-Gansu Rebellion in history. The mutual vendetta that broke out between the two largest ethnic groups in Shaanxi and Gansu directly led to the death of tens of millions of people. In the end, it was Zuo Zongtang who suppressed the revolt with his iron and blood methods.  Go down.

    "What I'm worried about is that once Du Wenxiu becomes the leader, and there will be chaos in Shaanxi and Gansu in the future, which side do you think he will take with the Yunnan rebels?" Xiao Yungui said in a deep voice: "In this era, all ethnic groups are still in a state of conflict.  During the integration, if we are not careful, we will kill each other. Our army is also a mixture of different races and religions. If we don't get it right, it will be a disaster for us to fall apart."

    Hong Yun'er straightened up, put her hand on his shoulder and said softly: "Do you still remember the land dispute before the Jintian Uprising?"

    Xiao Yungui was slightly startled, nodded and said, "Of course I remember the fight between the Hakkas and the natives."

    Hong Yun'er said softly: "Logically speaking, there is no big ethnic distinction between Hakkas and natives. Guangxi was originally the place of exile in the past. The Han people from the Central Plains who came to Guangxi to settle down early became natives, and  Those who came to Guangxi later became Hakkas. In those days, over a well or an acre of land, armed fighting in Zhengcun could break out between the two sides, and casualties were common. Why is this?"

    Xiao Yungui began to think deeply, and Hong Yun'er continued: "That's because the Qing court didn't do anything about it at all.I don't want to care about these things. Logically speaking, when something like this happens, the government should come forward and punish the crime according to the law.  However, the Qing government has always allowed the dispute over the territory of Guangxi to run its course. Those dog officials only wanted the unruly people to kill each other, so how could they think of stopping the war?  The result was the Jintian Uprising.  "

    Xiao Yungui was stunned and said: "You mean if the government of the Kingdom of Heaven intervenes, this kind of contradiction can be reduced?"

    Hong Yun'er said slowly: "In fact, human nature is selfish, regardless of ethnic group, and humans are social animals, and they like to form groups based on certain similarities, such as fellow villagers, the same village, and the same ethnic group.  .When faced with unfair treatment, people will unite to protect themselves and fight against injustice, just like the Citigroup Army before. In fact, we are not monolithic internally. The old brothers in Guangxi, the Qing army demoted from officers to generals, and the rebel armies from all over the country  Wait. But we can now make them get along harmoniously. Why is this? In fact, we have achieved basic fairness. We did not favor any side in the laws, military regulations, policies, etc. established during the Sufu New Deal.  But we have achieved fairness. People don¡¯t worry about scarcity but inequality. No matter who violates the rules, we will deal with them according to the law, so everyone is convinced."

    Hong Yun'er paused and continued: "Historically, uprisings broke out in Yunnan and Shaanxi-Gansu. Why did the Shaanxi-Gansu side turn into a tragic chaos? But the Yunnan side also had Hui people leading the uprising, but they were able to do so.  It has been 18 years since all ethnic groups fought against the Qing Dynasty? Both groups also believe in Islam and have fighting and hatred between ethnic groups, but there has never been such extermination killings in Yunnan?"

    Xiao Yungui said thoughtfully: "The key problem lies in the leaders and the policies implemented?"

    Hong Yun'er nodded and said: "Du Wenxiu was a scholar and was proficient in Islamic classics. He knew that killing to stop killing could not solve the problem. After his uprising, in addition to returning troops, his subordinates gathered Han, Yi, Bai,  Soldiers and civilians from more than ten ethnic groups such as Hani, Dai, and Naxi can do this. Do you think they will behave like Shaanxi and Gansu in the future?"

    Xiao Yungui thought for a moment and then said: "We previously resolved the conflict between the Kingdom of Heaven doctrine and domestic Confucianism by respecting personal beliefs. Du Wenxiu also acted in the same way, ensuring mutual respect in the face of the customs and beliefs of all ethnic groups, and in the interests of  In front of us, we should decide things according to the established laws and policies, which can indeed reduce conflicts."

    Hong Yun'er said calmly: "Yungui, Guangxi and other places are places where many ethnic groups live together. In the future, we will encounter these problems when we enter these places. Some places are even forbidden areas for foreigners. We should also think about how to deal with these problems.  .¡±

    Xiao Yungui frowned and said: "Yes, some Miao and Yi lands in Yunnan and Guizhou are indeed forbidden areas for foreigners. The local chieftains and leaders are the local emperors, and many of them colluded with the Manchus. Historically, Shi Dakai continued to fight after he arrived in Sichuan.  Were you attacked by the local chieftain's regiment?"

    Hong Yun'er sighed softly and said: "There are too few people like Du Wenxiu who understand righteousness, and more people are just for their own selfish interests."

    Xiao Yungui nodded and said: "We cannot place our hopes on individuals. If the army of the Kingdom of Heaven wants to sweep across Guangdong and Guangxi and march into Yunnan and Guizhou, it must rely on its own powerful force! We can support and win over people like Du Wenxiu. If we dare to fight with  If the Manchus and the Qing Dynasty collude to fight against us, we will not ask which tribe they belong to, but will resolutely regard them as Manchu and Qing troops and eliminate them!"

    Hong Yun'er nodded slightly and said: "That's true, but to deal with this issue, we still need to rely on the generals on the battlefield to make decisions. Sometimes local people of all ethnic groups will be deceived by the Manchus. I suggest that we send more people from Bai Zetang and the Intelligence Department.  Going deep into Yunnan and Guizhou and other places, firstly, to enhance our ability to build momentum, and secondly, to eliminate some bad propaganda from the Manchu Qing Dynasty. Until now, some places in Hubei still think that we are still implementing the holy treasury system, and many rich farmers and small landowners are still afraid of us.  , in fact, we all protect private property. If we can eliminate these Manchu rumors, we can win more people to our side. This is the purpose of winning public opinion."

    Xiao Yungui nodded and said: "I agree with this. The troops marching into Guangdong, Guangxi and Yunnan Guizhou must unite the local people of all ethnic groups, and military regulations and disciplines are stricter than usual." Then he smiled evilly and said: "The best is  If we can chase the defeated Manchu and Qing soldiers all the way, and those Manchu and Qing bandits can loot wherever they retreat, and then our righteous troops will come to pursue us, we will be able to get the local people to support us."

    Hong Yuner rolled her eyes at him, frowned and said, "Your idea is too sinister."

    Xiao Yungui shrugged his shoulders and said: "I'm just talking. In fact, those Manchu soldiers and horses usually oppressed the local people very little? Not to mention some minority people, they are oppressed even more pitifully. And we  Since you can't command from the front line, how you do it depends on the person who leads the troops. However, the people who lead the troops this time need to teach them the national habits of the various ethnic groups in Yunnan and Guizhou.??faith to avoid misunderstandings.  "

    Hong Yun'er nodded and said worriedly: "I'm more worried about the chieftains and chieftains in those places. They hold the life and death of a party in their hands. Some of them really won't give in so easily. What should we do?" (To be completed?)  Continued.)
