Four Five Two Expedition
—————————————————
"Report to the master, the cavalry of the fourth, sixth, and seventh third guards and the infantry of the tenth guards are all ready, and they can set off at any time."
"Report to the Lord that all vehicles, war horses, ships, ammunition, guns and cannons are ready and ready to be used."
"Report to the master, the training of new recruits is very effective, especially those surrendered soldiers in the Hulin land. Their combat power has increased very quickly and is not far from the regular Wuyi soldiers. They can be drawn at any time."
In the flower hall of the General's Mansion, Xiong Tingbi, Wang Dachun and Xie Deqing reported the report in turn.
Lian Zining nodded, everything was ready, and he could set off just when Nurhaci came back.
"Calling the day, it's time to come back now." Lian Zining subconsciously 452
After going to the battle, he saw Shi Dazhu's majestic figure turning in from the door. He was a little excited on his face and clasped his fists and said, "Sir, Nurhaci is back and resting in the living room."
"Okay!" Lian Zining suddenly stood up: "Let him go to the conference room and leave, let's go there too."
In the General's Mansion Conference Room, senior generals from more than a thousand households of Wuyi's army were already here, with starry sky and gathering together.
They each sat upright in their seats in the past. Looking around, the entire conference room was almost full, with only a few of the top seats empty.
The officers gathered together and whispered, buzzing and noisy. In the past, they would whisper together during meetings, but today the sound was particularly loud. It seemed to be particularly excited.
"Have you heard that? The boss is going to do something!" A Qianhu whispered.
"Do it? Who should I do it?" asked the colleague next to me.
"Isn't this nonsense? Who can I?" Qianhu curled his lips disdainfully and pointed to the north: "Of course it's there. I've heard of it. We'll have a meeting today and we're going to announce it and call it out!"
"Take your egg!" Another Qianhu said disdainfully: "How to hit it? We are surrounded by those dogs and tatars outside the city, I can do it for four or five.
I heard that I went to war this time. The superiors are going to start a war! A big fight will come! Completely kill the dogs and Tartars outside!"
"Yes, Lao Zhang is saying the truth. I heard it too." An echoed next to him: "We are all from Shandong, how can we know? As the corn is about to mature, we won't drive out the dogs and tatars. The corn from the millions of acres of land outside is cheaper. When I think about it, I feel so painful."
The conference room was buzzing and very noisy, and everyone had different opinions. In places like the state, no matter how confidential a plan is, some clues cannot be hidden - you need to prepare food and grass, and the troops are waiting for the battle to stay. What is this for? If these veteran officers can't guess anything, they will be in vain.
However, although they all guessed that the top was going to make big moves, some were a slight difference, while others were a thousand miles apart.
But those officers who were truly informed were silent and rarely spoke.
Li Tie sat in his seat, looking at his nose and his heart, silent.
Since he served as the counselor of MI6, he has certainly achieved success in his power. However, due to the particularity of his work, it is impossible for the leader of the spy unit similar to the Jinyiwei to continue to maintain a good relationship with the senior management of other departments - no one would like to watch him every day. Therefore, his relationship with the old brothers in the past was somewhat alienated, and he was also consciously becoming alienated from them, so that Lian Zining would not be suspicious.
This also led to few people surrounding him.
Xia Zikai had the same expression as Li Tie, but his face turned a little red. If you observe carefully, you will find that his fingers were even trembling, and his lips were slightly twitching. What were you talking about?
As he was speaking, Nurhaci and Shi Dazhu walked into the conference room together. Nurhaci came to his position and sat down, while Shi Dazhu walked to the highest main seat and stood behind.
The buzzing sound in the conference room became much smaller after Nurhaci and the others came in.
All the generals' eyes were on Nurhaci.
There was unconcealed fatigue on his face, and his face was covered in wind and frost. Even a small cracked mouthful appeared on his face, but his expression was excited. Everyone was well-informed, so naturally they knew that he, Lian Zining's beloved general, had disappeared for a long time, and they were all guessing where he was going.
Now that Nurhaci is back, they all realize that it is time to reveal the answer.
When Lian Zining came in surrounded by Xie Deqing and others, the conference room suddenly became quiet. Everyone stood up in unison, raised their heads and chests, and their bodies were as straight as javelins, and shouted in unison: "I have seen the adults!"
"Um!"
Lian Zining nodded and walked to the main seat, but did not let everyone sit down as usual. Instead, he pursed his lips and slowly glanced at everyone's faces.
Feeling the coach's scrutiny gaze, everyone's bodies were straighter, and their faces were full of perseverance. Lian Zining looked at it slowly and nodded with satisfaction.
He suddenly smiled and said loudly: "Everyone, remember this day, on the sixth day of the eighth day of the 52nd year of Zhengde in the Ming Dynasty, I must remember this day. When you are old, you can proudly say to your descendants, "Just today, I, General Songhuajiang, and Bolian Zining, take you to move north and counterattack the Jurchens! It ended the humiliation of my Ming Dynasty that I have only defended but not attacked in the northern border for thirty years! From this day on, our Wuyi army will also show our fangs to the Jurchens who have bullied us for so long!"
Lian Zining pursed her lips and knocked on the table hard, saying word by word: "Remember this day!"
Lian Zining is a master who incites people's hearts. His words aroused the emotions of the generals, and these words completely explained the doubts in everyone's hearts.
It turns out that my uncle really wants to make a big move, counterattack the Jurchens?
God!
Just thinking about it made everyone feel excited. The blood was boiling. Some violent generals were already breathing rapidly, their eyes were red, and their eyes were staring at Lian Zining eagerly, hoping that he would be fortunate to be on the list when Bo Ye announced the list of the Northern Expedition.
Since the rebellion of the Ming Dynasty, the Jurchens of the three surnames have never stopped sucking blood on the Ming Dynasty, constantly invading, treating the Han people like straw dogs, and wantonly humiliating, killing and enslaving. Since the Wuyi army was established, there have been two major battles with the Jurchens, especially the Battle of Xishenwei last year, which were extremely injured. Many of them here had their robes and died in battle!
Whether it is national hatred or family hatred, they have reasons to avenge the Jurchens.
As for whether this decision is reasonable and whether it will be difficult to fight, no one has considered this issue.
Can the decisions made by adults be wrong? Are you kidding?
As long as we follow my uncle, how can we win the battle?
"The morale of the army is available!" Lian Zining smiled faintly and said, "Very good, I am very pleased. At least you did not disappoint me. You are all good soldiers and good brothers brought by me Lian Zining!"
"It has been two years since the name Chen was created, and then the army was formed in the southern Beijing camp, and the continuous development and growth of the Wuyi army! In two years, we have fought in white robes, conquered Fusang, and fought with the girl without losing the advantage! Our Wuyi army can fight deadly, the court knows, all the army knows, all the officials know, the people in the world knows, and we know themselves, I have heard that many people in the army have called out. Our Wuyi army is the most powerful army in the world! I am happy, and I am happy that our brothers have such ambition! But!"
Lian Zining changed the subject: "But I want to tell you, you must forget all these things, forget all! Because this time, the opponents we face are stronger, the soldiers who want to go to war with me, what you have to face are the Jurchens. Yes, all the elites of the Haixi Jurchens are here, but behind the Haixi Jurchens, between the white mountains and black waters, there are more powerful and more elite Jianzhou Jurchens! These are the guards of the Tartar Khanate! And the soldiers who want to stay to defend the city, what you have to face are more than 100,000 Jurchens and Mongolian coalition forces. The responsibilities are heavy, and you must shoulder the responsibility!"
The enthusiastic emotions of the crowd not only did not cool down because of these words, but became even hotter. The heart was hot and the heart was so angry.
"The following is an order!" Lian Zining said in a deep voice: "This time, I personally led the troops to fight, and followed the army to be the fourth guard, the sixth guard, the seventh guard! And the tenth guard!"
"What? The Tenth Guard?" Some commotion suddenly broke out below.
Everyone can understand the first three guards. After all, they are all cavalrymen, and they are very powerful troops with very high combat power. They are very suitable for going to the army to fight. But what is this tenth guard? What is the thing? A group of Jurchens, elderly, weak, women and children are also suitable for going to the army to fight? Bah!
Many people are dissatisfied, some are scheming, but they have thoughts in their hearts.
They all remembered the composition of the Tenth Guard, which was huge in structure, large in number and poor in combat. This Northern Expedition was no better than a defensive battle. It was said that there were some tough battles to attack the city. It was naturally not worth it to use themselves to fight these tough battles with many dead people, but it was really appropriate to use these Jurchens to fight.
"All the baggage that individual soldiers need to carry has been sent to your respective troops. In addition, Wang Dachun led the logistics battalion to accompany the army, and Shi Dazhu led the personal military battalion to accompany the army, but the artillery thousand households were left behind. In addition to drawing some necessary artillery, I will leave you all the others! All the troops on the expedition will prepare immediately after returning, and gather at the East Gate after an hour."
"Yes, sir!" The four guard commanders and Qianhu, who were named, stood up and responded loudly. Their eyes frequently swept over the left-behind guards, and they were quite arrogant.
"The Wuyi Army is left behind, and is above the commanders, and Xiong Tingbi is responsible for it. During my absence, all decisions depend on Xiong Tingbi! Have you heard it clearly?"
"I heard it clearly!" the generals said in unison.
Xiong Tingbi glanced at Lian Zining deeply, without saying anything, and he had already explained some of it.
"There are all!" Lian Zining shouted loudly.
"Yes!" Everyone shouted loudly.
"Wu Yi Army!" Lian Zining slowly said two words: "Wan Sheng!"
"Wuyi Army, Wansheng!" The generals shouted in unison and almost lifted the roof.
After the meeting, everyone was busy, so the ones who stayed behind naturally arranged defense and went up to the city wall to patrol and garrison, striving to make no mistakes. Those who were going to fight returned to the military camp, led their soldiers, and gathered at the East Gate on time with war horses, food, grass, guns, and bullets that had been sent by the Logistics Department.
In the back house of the General's Mansion, the food had already been prepared in the kitchen. After Lian Zining came back from the front courtyard, he had a meal and was served by Amber to dress.
"Okay!" Amber put on Lian Zining's boots, stood up and straightened his pocket again, clapped his hands, took a few steps back, and said with a smile: "The master is so beautiful!"
Nona on the other side also repeatedly pointed her head, and she agreed.
Lian Zining in the bronze mirror is covered in rotten silver plate armor, with a tall and upright posture, standing like a javelin, elegant and handsome, and with indescribable toughness, but he deserves the word "beautiful".
Lian Zining turned around and held Amber's hand, smiled and said, "Okay, I'm going."
Amber nodded vigorously, with a smile on her face: "I am here to wait for the master to return in triumphant!"
"Okay, let's go!" Lian Zining had nothing to say about this understanding girl who had been with her for so long. She just shook her hand hard and stared at her deeply for a while. There was no need to say anything between the couple, and everything was clear.
"Nona, take good care of the master, take good care of food and use, and take good care of it." Amber was a little worried again and reminded Nona.
Nona smiled sweetly and said, "Madam, don't worry!"
Lian Zining suddenly felt a little sore in his nose. He didn't say anything anymore, waved his hand, turned around and strode out.
Nona hurriedly followed, and when she was about to go out, she turned around and smiled at Amber.
Amber walked to the door in two steps, looked at Lian Zining's back as he strides away, holding the door frame with his hands, and finally couldn't help it, tears swelling.
In the southeast corner of Zhenyuan Prefecture, there is a special existence here.
This is a continuous residential area with a large area and a similar structure to that of ordinary military camps. It is also a large courtyard, with rows of houses inside, but it is three or four times larger than the military camps of other guards. Although it is large, it is large and unreasonable, and it is very broken inside. The quality of the house is obviously a bit poor and thin, which is different from the various facilities in other military camps. There seems to be nothing else here except for residential buildings and canteens and bathhouses.
Moreover, on the walls of the courtyard, there were many soldiers placing bows and arrows, patrolling back and forth, staring at every move in the courtyard with vigilant expressions.
This place doesn't look like a military camp, but rather like a large prison.
In fact, this place is indeed a military camp, but the residents inside are a bit special - they are the tenth guards of the Wuyi Army and the residences of the Jurchens.
And at this moment, there were crowds of people here, shouts, anger and scolding, and there were also crying and screams everywhere.
The commander's office of the 10th guard station is in the main hall.
In the center of the main hall, there was a spiritual seat on an altar, and there was nothing else.
On the futon in front of the spiritual position, Xia Zikai knelt on it, his lips twitched, and he was saying something slightly.
"Sir, Wu Yi Bo is going to lead a large army to fight. Just recently, the target is the Jurchens of the three surnames! With the Wu Yi army dealt with them, the Jurchens who killed thousands of swords this time are in great trouble! I am lucky to be with my husband this time, and I can also go to fight with you. OK! Join Wu Yi army for my husband, and wait for this day! Look, wait. For my husband this time, I will use the Jurchen blood to exchange for more Jurchen blood. Madam, I will definitely avenge you. If you have a spirit in heaven, you must also bless me. By the way, I have already investigated my cousin's whereabouts. When I come back from the war, I will take her and take good care of her. Don't worry..."
There were tiny footsteps behind him, and a personal soldier walked to the door and whispered: "Sir, the troops have all gathered. Just wait for the departure."
"Madam, look at me avenge you!"
Xia Zikai said firmly, stood up suddenly, and walked out with his helmet in his arms.
Chapter completed!
