Chapter 174 Follow-up Strategies

After hearing about the battlefield behind, Hu Qiang started doing this.

There is no one to defend the prince around His Royal Highness. Take the present as an example. How can those who temporarily replenished the battlefield have the ability to be as capable as those of the previous ones?

If something happens, the entire court will regret it.

"Even if you don't tell me about this, I will ask you for someone. This time I plan to expand the imperial guards. In addition to the original organization, I will draw 1,500 people from the army of the three of you to form a guard regiment."

After hearing Zhu Cilang's words, Hu Qiang breathed a sigh of relief. Since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had a plan, we should obey honestly. It was the first time we heard about the concept of the Guards Group.

Zhu Cilang experienced what happened on the battlefield personally, so he naturally knew that the strength of the imperial guards was a bit weak.

I originally thought it was just a compliment, but only after I went to the battlefield did I realize that anyone might be sent to the front line.

So in this case, it is better for Zhu Cilang to expand first, so as to avoid facing no one to be available again.

What's more, Zhu Cilang stayed in Jiangnan during this period and would not run around, and he also wanted to train an elite army himself.

Zhu Cixuan still has many modern military skills in his mind. He can use the Imperial Guards as an experiment and can also be promoted to the entire army in the future. This may be a good thing for the entire Ming army.

"You get up first, let's talk about this matter later. What I want to tell you now is how you guard Qufu."

After hearing Zhu Cilang's words, Hu Qiang quickly raised his ears.

After the Battle of Qufu, the Ming Dynasty's defense line would definitely advance northward, so how to work here in the future must be listened to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's words. Hu Qiang dared not make decisions without authorization. This place will be equivalent to the border of the Ming Dynasty in the future.

"Please tell your prince."

Hu Qiang said respectfully.

If Hu Qiang simply attacks the enemy, he would not need any advice from Zhu Cilang, but if he would station here and the Qing people had various actions, he would have to leave a rule.

"You and Gao Jie guard here at the same time. I don't expect you two to make achievements. As long as you can keep here for me, you have more than 60,000 troops. As long as you are not proud and underestimate the enemy, there is no problem in defending here. In addition, there are many refugees in Shandong, so I will also give you a special indicator, that is, you two can recruit soldiers on the spot, and the number of recruits is not limited, but you must be better than nothing."

After hearing Zhu Ciyang's words, Hu Qiang was happy. This means that there are more and more troops in his hands in the future, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince does not limit the number. Where can I find such a good thing?

"Don't be rushing to be happy. I will send people to check regularly. If your Zhengzhou army only has quantity but no quality, I will take back this power at any time."

Zhu Cilang knew that this power was relatively high, and he had to be cautious when delegating it, but at the same time he had to put reins on them.

These people have a very strong ability to lead the team. If there is no limit, it is possible to create a 100,000 army for you within a few months.

At that time, military pay alone was a huge expense. Today's army must also require quality in addition to quantity.

According to Zhu Cixuan's original idea, as long as the soldiers can complete three months of recruit training, and our advanced weapons, they should be invincible after they go to the battlefield.

But is this really the case?

The real situation slapped Zhu Cilang hard. Everyone had indeed completed the three months of recruit training, but the situation on the battlefield changed rapidly.

When the ferocity of the Eight Banners Iron Cavalry was placed in front of the soldiers, at least ten percent of the soldiers began to wander.

What Zhu Cilang has to do is to screen out this part of the soldiers, so the training in the rear will definitely change.

It used to be mainly systematic training, but now, in addition to strengthening training, they also need to conduct practical exercises.

Only in this way can their combat effectiveness be improved in all aspects. Only in this way can our soldiers be real soldiers, not just having one data.

"Don't worry, Your Highness the Crown Prince, General Mo fully understands that he will cooperate with General Gao and hand him over to Your Highness a qualified new army when His Highness the next Northern Expedition."

Hu Qiang deserves to be the old man who followed Zhu Cilang. He quickly understood what Zhu Cilang meant. It was indeed too slow to recruit soldiers from the south.

If an elite army could be trained from Shandong, then the next time this is the starting point of the Northern Expedition. Zhu Cixuan had no need to recruit troops from the south. If he set out directly from here, the amount of money saved would definitely be a huge number. What can he do?

"Remember what you said to me. The second Northern Expedition will soon come. Don't think that you are just guarding here, and you still owe this palace an elite soldier."

Zhu Cixuan said with a smile, just digging a hole for Hu Qiang. Before Hu Qiang understood what was going on, he just jumped down and couldn't climb up.

After explaining these things, Zhu Cilang was about to return to the south. This Northern Expedition has been out for more than four months, and Nanjing has to go back and take a look. After all, it is his base camp.

The Nanjing court can be said to have a great praise for His Royal Highness's Northern Expedition.

To be honest, when His Highness the Crown Prince went on the Northern Expedition, at least half of the people thought His Highness would return in disgrace.

Among the remaining half, most of them thought that a draw would be a victory. No one thought that they could destroy nearly 300,000 Qing army in one fell swoop, so all kinds of luxurious words came to their faces.

In the eyes of these ministers, losing such a little person is simply insignificant.

If we follow their ideas, even if it is a one-to-one loss, it will be a big victory. After all, we have never achieved such a victory in the battle with the Qing Dynasty.

So after a while of discussion, the court ministers immediately sent out the ministers to take over the army.

Cao Renli and Shi Kefa represent the vestibule and the harem, and the two directly took over to Qufu.

Zhu Ciyang really didn't know what to say about such a situation. You were really doing it too grandly. How could you pick up the front line? It's already good to go out of the city ten miles away.

However, it also reflects from the side that the court officials indeed admired Zhu Cilang...
