Lushunkou.

After Qiao Gui was killed, the storm of the Ganguo spy passed temporarily.

Although the news that the Qing army transferred Kong Youde to garrison Lushun may have been leaked, in Mandahai's view, overall, the Qing court still had the upper hand in this confrontation.

After all, he instigated a Gan Chao torch, removed a Gan Chao's intelligence base in Shenyang, and eliminated an important detailed work that had penetrated the Qing court. No matter how you look at it, the Qing court won.

Earlier, the Qing court's detailed work was solved by the National Security Department, and now the Qing court's spy organization, the Logical Department, finally won a big victory.

Although it is not perfect, Mandahai can barely accept it. It is considered to be one of the few victorys of the Qing court in recent years in the struggle between the Qing court and the Gan Dynasty.

The only question now is whether the Gan army will attack Lushun after the Qing army stationed heavily in Lushun.

At this time, in the gear, Mandahai stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the shimmering sea surface, and fell into deep thought.

The Qing Dynasty’s current focus on development was in the rich Liaohe Plain, while the entire Liaodong Peninsula was relatively deserted.

The original intention of the Qing army to build Lushun Port was not to develop it, but to hand it over to the Dutch people and introduce the Dutch navy to fight against the Beiyang navy in the Ganchao and ensure the safety of the Qing court's coastline.

Now, in order to maintain more than 100,000 Koreans, the Qing court has already spent a huge amount of money on building the Port of Lushun. In addition, more than 50,000 troops have been stationed in Lushun for a long time, the Qing court is already unable to bear the financial situation.

At this time, the Qing court was under great logistics pressure, but Mandahai did not dare to let Kong Youde leave Lushun, for fear that if the troops were withdrawn, Gao Huan would attack.

Facing this situation, Mandahai didn't know what to do for a moment.

At this time, he pondered for a while, returned to the table, wrote a memorial, and wrote to the Qing court, describing the importance of the Liaodong Peninsula, hoping that the Qing court could recruit the people to develop Liaodong so that the Liaodong garrison could obtain food on the spot. At the same time, he hoped that the Qing court could send a detailed plan to Shandong to monitor the movements of the Gan Dynasty.

After Mandahai finished writing the memorial, he asked someone to send it to Chenyang, waiting for the Qing court's reply, but Gao Huan had already begun to take action.

After learning about the latest information about Lushun, Gao Huan also decided to take advantage of the situation and decided to eat up the 50,000 Qing troops in Lushun.

At first, the Qing court discovered that Gao Huan wanted to attack Lushun, so he gave Gao Huan a trick and transferred Kong Youde to him, which made up as many as 50,000 troops in Lushun, and was about to surprise Gao Huan. After Gao Huan learned that the Qing Dynasty had prepared a surprise for him, he was about to give them a bigger surprise and form a nesting doll.

Gao Huan’s plan this time is actually relatively simple, which is to occupy South Guam near Dalian Bay.

Although there is an island character in Nan Guam, it is actually a narrow land connecting Lushun and the Liaodong Peninsula.

Its location is like Panama connecting North and South America and the Suez Canal that divides Asia and Africa.

Since the Liao incident, Mao Wenlong recovered Zhenjiang Fort and opened Dongjiang Town, his general Zhang Pan guarded Lushun and wrote a letter to suggest opening a river in Nan Guam to dig the Bohai Sea and Dalian Bay to defend against the Later Jin army.

It can be seen from this that the terrain of Nanguan is narrow, and it is precisely because it is narrow here that it can only connect the Bohai Sea and the Yellow Sea in a few dozen miles, making it the key to defending Lushun.

If you occupy this place, you can block the enemy's army to the north, and Zhang Pan did die in Nanguan.

Nanguan is the northern gateway of Lushun. The Gan army occupied this place, which means closing the gate of Lushun.

At this time, in South Guam, the Qing army set up a checkpoint here, but not to defend against the enemy, but to investigate.

After all, the north side of the Nanguan was the base camp of the Qing Dynasty, and the Qing army here did not need to defend against the enemy from the north.

In order to prevent the news of Kong Youde from entering Lushun from being exposed, Mandahai strengthened investigation here, but now the news has been revealed, so the Qing army has slacked off.

There was no need to defend against the enemy or carefully checked it here. Mandahai immediately withdrew its garrison, leaving only one hundred people to garrison here.

It was night, the moon was bright and the stars were sparse, the sea breeze was blowing, and the waves hit the shore.

The Qing army in Nanguan was used to sleeping soundly among the waves and the sound of insects. Only in front of the level were left, a few soldiers were sleepy under the dim lanterns.

At this time, on the sea, several giants were anchored in the sea of ​​Dalian Bay.

Huang Fei looked into the distance and found the fire in the Qing army camp. "The general was still worried about getting the wrong place. Now it seems that he can't make a mistake. There is Nanguan there."

When Huang Degong saw the destination, his expression was serious. "Nanguan is very close to Lushun. Once Nanguan is occupied by us, Mandahai will definitely send troops to retake it. In order to have time to build fortifications to defend against the Qing army's counterattack, try to seize Nanguan Island without disturbing Lushun's Qing army."

Speaking of this, Huang Degong glanced at the many generals, "Who would like to go?"

There were not many Qing troops in South Guam, but it was not easy to disturb the Qing army in Lushun. As long as the Qing army lights a beacon or even throws a grenade during the operation, the Qing army in Lushun may be able to discover the movement.

Several generals looked at each other, but they didn't dare to accept the order. Only Li Laiheng and Li Yuanyin went out to clasp their fists, "I'm willing to go!"

Huang Degong glanced at the two of them, considering that the sneak attack needed to take a boat to the shore, his eyes fell on Li Laiheng and said, "Land Battle Camp will fight this vanguard!"

Li Laiheng immediately bowed his fists and said, "The last general will take the order!"

After speaking, Li Laiheng immediately went to prepare. Soon, more than ten small boats were placed on the large ship. The soldiers of the Land Battle Camp took a small boat and slowly rowed towards the shore under the cover of night.

When the ship was docked, Li Laiheng waved his hand and the soldiers on the ship got off the ship one after another.

At this time, the ship went back to welcome the next group of soldiers, while Li Laiheng took the soldiers, hugged, alternately covering and approaching the Qing army's camp.

Earlier, when Dongjiang Town fought with the Later Jin army, Tuguan was built. Decades have passed and been disrepaired for many years, the city of Guan was dilapidated and collapsed everywhere.

At this time, Li Laiheng led more than 100 elite soldiers from the Land Battle Battalion and quietly touched a hundred steps away from the checkpoint. He saw Qing soldiers sleeping against the earth wall, with only two soldiers patrolling back and forth on the earth wall with muskets on the earth wall.

Li Laiheng observed for a moment and made several gestures, indicating that his subordinates were divided into several teams, and the soldiers patrolling in seconds. Several people went to touch the enemy's beacon tower. The remaining people were careful to approach the level.

"Do it!" Li Laiheng suddenly waved his hand.

More than a dozen Qian soldiers knelt on one knee, raised their crossbows, pulled the trigger together, and more than ten crossbow arrows shot out. The two soldiers at the level screamed, chased down the earth wall, and smashed heavily to the ground.

The voice woke up the sleeping soldiers in front of the level, but as soon as they opened their eyes, they saw a group of black shadows carrying battle swords rushing in front of them. Before they could react, they were chopped over by the Qian army and fell into a pool of blood.
