After settling the matter with the Ministry of War, Feng Ziying went home and quickly informed Yang Zhaoji, who was still waiting for the good news.
Yang Zhaoji did not expect that Feng Ziying was so powerful that he could do it in an hour. He thought it would take ten days and a half at least, and he could also instruct the Gyeonggi Iron, Steel, Military, and Building Materials Complex to complete the inventory of firepower within three days.
The blunderbuss was sent over, which meant that he could get the gunpowder pellets immediately.
Yang Zhaoji, who was overjoyed, also admired Feng Ziying. Even the new commander-in-chief would never be able to handle the Ministry of War and the workshop single-handedly. This ability is really not easy. To follow such a person, it is impossible for him to have such ability.
There is really a future.
Feng Ziying also mentioned her and Zhang Huaichang's worries by the way, and made it clear that the reason why she agreed to replenish the Xuanfu side first was because she was worried about something happening on the northern line. If something happened, Yang Zhaoji would immediately pull out the reserve team to deal with it.
Go up.
Yang Zhaoji didn't care at all about this. Isn't this military training just for fighting?
Whether it's fighting the Chahar people, fighting the Jianzhou Jurchens, or fighting the Southern Army, it doesn't make much difference to the warriors. They even hope that the more wars, the better. This is the opportunity for the warriors to get promoted.
If it were a peaceful time, the status of these warriors would only be lower and they would be oppressed even more severely by the civil servants.
Yang Zhaoji left happily.
However, while she was worried about the twists and turns in the situation on the northern line, Feng Ziying naturally had to consider some countermeasures. Apart from writing a letter to remind You Shilu, what could Shuntian Prefecture do?
If the army on the northern front really loses, Yang Zhaoji's reserve force alone will definitely be far from enough. But now besides the few troops in Xuanfu Town, where else can they be mobilized from?
Extracting this part of Ji Town and You Shilu is already the limit, and Ji Town’s defense is under great pressure.
Especially when Niu Jizong suddenly left Xuanfu Town, huge loopholes appeared in the entire northern defense, and the Chahar people were ready to make a move.
Although the Chahar people have not taken any substantial action due to seasonal reasons, no one can guarantee whether the Chahar people, aware of Zhou's weakness, will suddenly attack.
Now the line from Longmen Station to Bohai Station, including Yanqing Prefecture, was originally the defense area of Xuanfu Town. They have all been handed over to Ji Town for temporary guarding. They will not be handed over until the formation and training of the new Xuanfu Army reaches a certain level.
For the new Xuanfu Army, this period will last from half a year to two years before the Jizhen Army will gradually withdraw and return to its original state.
Apart from Ji Town, Liaodong Town is out of the question. When Nurhaci sees such an opportunity, he will definitely not make it easy for Zhou. If Liaodong Town fails, he may even need support from the court.
Don't even think about Datong Town. Datong Town, which had a considerable number of elites taken away by Sun Shaozu, is now injured and in urgent need of replenishment. After all, the entire Jiubian has no troops that can serve as the reserve force for the northern front.
The only one used is Jingying.
Can Jingying be used?
After the defeat of Santun Camp, although the Jingying Camp was rebuilt under the personal supervision of Emperor Yonglong, the imperial court was full of doubts about the combat effectiveness of the Jingying Camp from top to bottom. This distrust was so deep-rooted that the Jingying Camp was almost treated as rubbish.
No. Perhaps Yang Zhaoji had just entered the Beijing camp not long ago. If he stayed for another two years, he would probably be "looked at differently" by the Ministry of War and the princes in the court again.
But when there are really no soldiers available, even waste has to be used, so Feng Ziying feels that all she can do is say hello to King Zhonghui, remind him to hurry up and train, and also remind He Huchen that once he leaves,
When that happens, the department he is in will definitely bear the brunt and must prepare quickly.
King Zhonghui was also overjoyed by Feng Ziying's visit.
After becoming the military governor of Beijing, King Zhonghui finally realized that it was not easy to be the military governor.
The commander of the Shenshu Camp, Qian Shi Benyang, violated the law, and the commander of the Shenji Camp, Qian Guozhong, also had his own Xiao Jiujiu in his heart. What King Zhonghui could actually control was the Fifth Army Camp, and his prestige as the Jiedu Commander of the Beijing Camp could not be compared with the previous two
Compared with Niu Jizong, Wang Ziteng looked quite weak, even far behind Chen Jixian, which made him, the governor of the Beijing camp, extremely useless.
After all, the most reliable one he has now is He Huchen, who was recommended to him by Feng Ziying.
So when Feng Ziying left, King Zhonghui took Feng Ziying and poured out his bitterness.
This cannot be blamed on King Zhonghui. He had never been in charge of the army or even touched military affairs. Now he suddenly became the leader of more than 100,000 Beijing troops. He must bear the weight of wearing the crown.
I really can't bear this weight.
"My lord, you don't have to worry so much. You can't control Shenshu Camp and Shenji Camp, so just focus on holding on to the Fifth Army Camp."
Feng Ziying thought it was normal. King Zhonghui himself was not the material to be a military governor. If you let him interfere with the Shenshu Camp and the Shenji Camp, it would only worsen the relationship and make it worse.
"Ziying, how did you know that the Fifth Military Camp is also difficult to manage?" King Zhonghui sighed, "The Fifth Military Camp is much larger than Shenshu Camp and Shenji Camp, and none of them are fuel-efficient lamps.
I’m always thinking about how to trouble myself, and I’m almost going crazy from torture all day long about these things.”
Unexpectedly, King Zhonghui had such an attitude, and Feng Ziying was also speechless.
It seems that few of these princes are capable. If you don't know how to manipulate the authority given to you, what can you do? But now the Jingying Jiedushi was personally appointed by Emperor Yonglong, and now even the cabinet is not good.
You can replace anyone at will, and whoever you replace will still have a headache.
"Your Majesty, then you must have a strategy." Feng Ziying shook her head, "The emperor asked you to serve as the governor of the Beijing Camp. Maybe he is asking you to restrict Qiu Shiben and Qian Guozhong. You can't even do anything with the fifth military camp.
what to do?"
Hearing what Feng Ziying said, King Zhonghui felt more and more that this was true, but for him, he didn't know what to do.
"Ziying, please give me an idea. I just now realize that being the governor of the Beijing Camp was a big mistake on my part. I shouldn't have picked up the hot potato, and now I can't get rid of it." King Zhonghui said.
Holding Feng Ziying's hand, she looked forward to it: "You always have ideas, and you will definitely be able to give me a good idea."
"My lord, you have to make up your own mind about this." Feng Ziying pondered for a moment, "What you lack is that you don't have people you trust, especially people who can fight. If you do, you might as well make this movie a big deal first.
Strong and form combat effectiveness. In this way, it can also deter Shenshu Camp and Shenji Camp so that they dare not act rashly, and then they can train people they trust, such as recruiting some veterans from the army with a certain combat effectiveness.
Then combine some of the new troops for mixed formation, strengthen training, and gradually form combat effectiveness..."
Feng Ziying can only give King Zhonghui this kind of idea that is not a good idea. In this state, it can only be done in this way, and Feng Ziying doesn't know whether King Zhonghui can do it, but in this way, Feng Ziying hopes to give it to King Zhonghui.
Congratulations to Huchen for a chance.
Now that Yang Zhaoji has got the opportunity, he will not favor one over the other, so he must also try to give He Huchen a chance.
If the war on the northern front does not go well, it will be an opportunity for Yang Zhaoji and He Huchen. It depends on which of them can seize it.
King Zhonghui thought about it and felt that Feng Ziying's opinion made some sense. He had never been in charge of an army, and he had no generals who could fight. Among the existing ones, there were only a few people who were interested in him. In the end,
The most reliable and effective one is He Huchen’s department.
It's just that He Huchen was too young, so he was a little hesitant before, but now it seems that he doesn't care much anymore. When it's time to reorganize, it must be reorganized. As long as it can be used and can obey its own orders, as for age, just be young when you are young.
Isn't this one younger? He's already a fourth-grade official.
After making up his mind, King Zhonghui did not talk to Feng Ziying anymore. He changed the subject and talked about the current situation of the court and the prediction of the North-South War. Feng Ziying also mentioned that the Beijing camp should be well prepared in case the war really goes wrong.
He needs to be pulled out without losing face to Jingying.
After staying at King Zhonghui's place for a long time, Feng Ziying originally wanted to find an opportunity to meet He Huchen, but going at this time would seem a bit revealing, so he simply left and waited until someone asked He Huchen to come to his place to explain it specifically.
.
He Huchen also came to Feng Ziying's house in the evening, and Feng Ziying told the situation.
He Huchen was also very excited.
Originally, when we arrived in Jingying, for others, a pampered life might be the most comfortable, but this was not what people like He Huchen wanted.
As a warrior, he was more eager to prove himself on the battlefield. After the defeat of Santunying, he and Yang Zhaoji both performed modestly in Yongping Mansion, but with Zuo Liangyu, Huang Degong and others, they went on an expedition to Wuling Mountain and raided Caojiazhai.
The performance of threatening the Chahar people's retreat is not worth mentioning.
Now Zuo Liangyu and Huang Degong have officially entered the elite ranks of Jizhen with that performance, and have also become young generals that You Shigong focuses on training, but he and Yang Zhaoji are still lingering in the Beijing camp.
Although the emperor values the Jingying camp and focuses on cultivating it, everyone knows that the mission of the Jingying camp is to defend the capital. It is rare for the Chahar people to invade like the year before last, so it is rare for the Jingying camp to fight. This is for
It was a kind of torture for warriors like me and Yang Zhaoji who were unwilling to live such a mediocre life.
Now that he finally got such an unexpected surprise, how could He Huchen not be overjoyed? You must know that Yang Zhaoji's incorporation into Xuanfu Town had made He Huchen both fascinated and sad. Suddenly, he also had the opportunity to go into battle, so he naturally had to prepare well.
Feng Ziying didn't say much, and only made two points to He Huchen. One was to immediately strengthen training after expansion and reorganization, but first to ensure that the combat effectiveness of his own unit was not reduced, and to actively prepare for war in all aspects at any time.
He Huchen didn't ask any further questions. The only places he could attack were those places, and he would just have to deal with the changes in the current situation. He just accepted the order graciously.
