"Once a word is spoken, it cannot be taken back!"
"Good!" Hauge patted his thigh and stood up: "All the generals, listen to my orders."
"Yes!" the generals responded in unison.
"Suba!"
"I am here." Subai stood up under the gaze of everyone.
"You lead your troops to Tashan overnight and make sure to defeat the Ming army at Tashan tomorrow." Hauge ordered.
"This..." Subai stretched out his voice.
"Any questions?"
"I only have a thousand soldiers under my command. Even if we can defeat the Ming army at Tashan, I'm afraid the losses will be..." Subai said worriedly.
"No problem. When you arrive at Tashan, Bolo and his troops will be under your command!"
Subai was immediately delighted and saluted: "I obey your command."

"What's the situation with Wu Sangui upstream?" Hauge asked.
Man Dahai sighed: "Every time Wu Sangui goes to war, he always makes a big noise! If you take him seriously, he has no intention of fighting a decisive battle; if you don't take him seriously, he will gather his main force on the shore and send out a small force to test the waters."
"That is to say...the situation upstream will still be mainly confrontational in the short term?"

"What are we rushing to make a floating boat for? To cross the river or..."
"Listen to me," Hauge interrupted Lekedehun, "After the pontoon is built, put it on the surface of Ningyuan East River. Then fill the pontoon with gunpowder, kerosene and other flammable materials, and finally arrange for some death warriors to take the pontoon to the downstream."
"Find a way to burn or blow up the floating bridge that the Ming army built downstream."
"Once the floating bridge is broken, the morale of the Ming army will be in chaos!"
"The Ming army cuts off our retreat, so we will also cut off the Ming army's retreat."
