The three southwestern provinces have never experienced such a big battle. The Governor's Office has also released some news before. When General Long was at his strongest, he could only have more than 20 reporters at most, and most of them were not well-known celebrities.
Those who came were all trainee reporters.
The main reason is also because the three southwest provinces are not very important. Compared with other regions, not many people pay attention to how this area develops, so even if there is news, it is squeezed into the corner. This kind of news
Will anyone care?
But things are different now. First of all, Rongkang is Gao Shaoyi's old father-in-law. Secondly, the situation of the eighteen chieftains is quite sensitive and has not been solved for two to three hundred years. Can you solve it now if you say it is solved?
There is also the army mobilized from the north. Although the Suppression Army has been kept quite secret, there are countless stations and military depots that must be passed along the two to three thousand kilometers along the way. So if you want to keep it completely secret, then I'm afraid it's
It is impossible, and Gao Shaoyi has also issued an order to advance southwest with great fanfare. There is nothing to keep secret, but we want to let everyone know that we want to use force to solve the territory of the eighteen chieftains.
When Rong Kang was speaking, although the reporters were paying full attention, they did not show much interest. After all, some of what Rong Kang said was nonsense. Everyone had already expected it in their hearts. When Meng Yun Tusi came out,
The press conference also reached a climax. Everyone never thought that they would see Meng Yun Tusi here.
Although Chief Meng Yun entered the city with great fanfare at the South Gate, when he entered the city that day, all the idle people had been driven away, so not many people knew that Chief Meng Yun was coming. This matter does not matter now.
There is no need to say more, just a photo will do. As for the rest of the matter, anyone with a clear mind can probably imagine what is going on. Chief Mengyun betrayed the eighteen chieftains, and the war has not yet begun.
Before he got up, Chief Mengyun had already surrendered to the imperial court.
This purge operation is indeed different from history. You must know that in history, even if the army reached the foot of the mountain, no chieftain would defect. Many chieftains died in the battle before, but they never thought of surrendering. Now the government troops still
Mengyun Tusi had already surrendered without starting a fight. Does this mean that this campaign of suppression was already half successful?
"Mengyun Chieftain, can you tell me what you are thinking about now? Does your appearance here mean that you have parted ways with the other seventeen chieftains?"
"Your Excellency Chief Mengyun, can you tell us the specific situation on the mountain? Do other chieftains know that you will appear at this press conference?"
"Your Excellency, Chieftain, you have chosen to submit to the imperial court. Is this your own choice? Or is it the common choice of all your subordinates?"
Rongkang himself was the host of the press conference, but at this moment this guy could only play a supporting role. Everyone present regarded Meng Yun as the protagonist, and kept asking this guy questions, and each one was more cunning than the last.
, but Meng Yun has already made up his mind. If he does not respond to these questions, the response will be scolding.
"Everyone, the will of the imperial court is very clear. No one can be free from the jurisdiction of the imperial court. This time, we have obtained the support of the Suppression Army Headquarters for all military actions, and in the next few days we will
Here, we advise those who are lucky and hope that they can start a dialogue with the court as soon as possible and not bring the flames of war to their own people. This is what an irresponsible person can do. We also hope that all journalist friends can help
Let’s spread a message and try our best to reach the ears of the chieftains on the mountain.”
Governor Rongkang saw that the situation here was a bit chaotic. If he continued to talk like this, many things might not be easy to handle, so this guy took the time to say some words to the people present, and then shut down the emergency
Although I left in a bit of a hurry, I have already done what I need to do. The most important thing is to let Meng Yun Tusi show up here and let everyone know the real situation here. As for them,
How to write it is up to each reporter.
To put it bluntly, Gao Shaoyi and Rongkang are not afraid of making things too big. These reporters can give full play to their imagination. As long as they publicize this matter, their purpose will be achieved. As for how you publicize it,
We are not afraid, the rumors will eventually become bigger and bigger.
Of course, when the news is conveyed, the troops currently in Mengyun Chieftain's territory will be under pressure. Their original purpose of combat is to lurk here and then wait for the follow-up troops to come up and then attack.
But now the situation has changed. Their mission is to keep an eye on this place. If other chieftain armies come around, then try to attract them here. After all, we know the surrounding situation better. We can
It is much easier to wipe out their effective forces around here than it is for us to go deep into the mountains and forests. If we follow them into the deep mountains and old forests, even if our weapons and equipment are relatively powerful, we may not be their opponents.
The most important thing is that we know that they have received the support of foreign weapons, and they no longer have the broadswords and spears they used to have. Although these weapons are still backward, they are familiar with the local terrain, and coupled with their skills from ancient times, in fact, both sides
Their strength should be considered equally matched.
Mengyun Tusi Official Village.
After a long night of running around, Lu Linshan has already arrived with Yuan Jun. At present, the main strength of the official village has reached 3,500 people, and there are even two 105mm howitzers. Of course, it is not
It is said that we are short of artillery shells, but it is too difficult to transport them. Just transporting these two artillery pieces required three mules to death.
In addition, there are more than 3,000 people eating and drinking. Although there are some supplies in Mengyun Tusi's warehouse, weapons and ammunition have to be transported up from the mountain after all. The roads here are too difficult to walk, so we can only rely on mules and
War horse.
Fortunately, the mental outlook of the troops on the mountain was not bad. None of them felt that this operation was very dangerous. They mainly believed in the weapons in their hands. Before the war started, they fully equipped themselves with semi-automatic rifles, which increased their firepower by another level.
