Section 57: The Guiding Principles of War(2/2)
It's as high as perfect.
Moreover, there is still a garrison in Qiongshan County. If we want to continue to maintain the apparent existence of the Ming Dynasty, will the more than 2,000 ships of the Qiongya Coast Defense Admiral be allowed to continue to be stationed? This is the imperial government's economic system, and it has not been decadent for a long time.
An unbearable guardhouse. Even if it was destroyed in battle, it must have been rebuilt. Is it allowed for such a force to exist beside the couch?
Jiangshan thought, the most difficult thing is: once the counterattack army and navy troops arrive at Qiongzhou City and break through Baisha Water Village, the officials of Qiongzhou Prefecture and Qiongshan County will either surrender or commit suicide and die for their country. No matter which way, Qiongzhou Prefecture and the city will be destroyed.
The news of the fall was bound to spread, and Wang Zunde and others would never have the guts to lie and claim that the city was not lost.
But he did not intend to question these issues face to face - there would be a special meeting to discuss the matter when it was implemented. Anyway, whether it was maintaining "surface peace" or completely breaking up, he was in favor of occupying all of Hainan.
Although some people question whether this "maintaining superficial peace" can be achieved, most of the elders are still very enthusiastic about occupying all of Hainan - Lingao is still too small after all. Many people have a vague idea
Yueyue hopes that once the political power is extended to the whole of Hainan, everyone will be able to stand alone - or even take up positions such as chief executive in other counties.
Finally, the Senate passed three principles guiding the war:
First, completely annihilate the invading Ming army and other enemies, and at the same time eliminate the effective strength of the Ming army in Hainan.
Second, occupy the entire Hainan under favorable conditions.
Third, the war will be limited to Hainan Island and surrounding waters, and will not be extended to the mainland and other waters - unless approved by the Senate.
This operation was named the "Second Counter-Encirclement and Suppression Operation."
Skade continued to advocate for peace talks with the Guangdong local government after the war.
The specific plan was to quickly release several high-level prisoners back to Guangzhou after the war, try to contact the leading figures in the Guangdong government, and ask for peace talks with them. Then send special personnel to negotiate.
