Chapter 1372 Soldiers approach Yeerqiang

Da Yuzi and some of Zhongyuzi's territory belong to Xinjiang in later generations. As a Greater China time traveler from later generations, Xu Jin naturally would not turn a blind eye. However, as the saying goes, if you are anxious, you can't eat hot tofu. The current situation should not make too many enemies. Take your time slowly. After all, the future is long. First, deal with Turpan and Yarkand, and then it's the Oirat in the north. As for Da Yuzi and Zhongyuzi, you can only do it slowly.

After all, the Ming Dynasty is a country of etiquette, and the army must be famous. Whether it is to destroy the Tatars, attack Turpan, or attack Yarkand and Oirat, there are legitimate reasons, but it is impossible to beat Da Yuzi. They didn't provoke you. Even the Ming army invaded the door and stepped on the door, and they didn't give up any farts. Do you have the nerve to hit them?

Xu Jin was embarrassed, so he took his army away from the banks of the Yili River and returned to Anle City in Turpan. At this time, all the troops had completely wiped out the local armed forces in Turpan and initially controlled the entire territory of Turpan. The next issue was the governance issue.

Due to the incident between Pei Xingjin and Yu Linsheng, Xu Jin lost three powerful generals at once, so he was in a very bad mood for several days. Fortunately, good news from all over the country came one after another. Moreover, on the third day after Xu Jin returned to Anle City, Guo Heizi and Song Dayan returned with dust and dust, bringing back the latest news from Yerkang Khan.

"See the Grand Marshal!" Song Dayan and Guo Heizi were taken into the General's Mansion. As soon as they saw Xu Jin, they saluted on one knee.

"No gift!" Xu Jin raised his hand and asked impatiently: "Guo Qianhu, Ye Cheng is still holding on?"

Guo Heizi said respectfully: "When the general returned to the commander-in-chief, when his subordinates and Lao Song arrived at Yecheng, Yecheng had been captured."

Xu Jin couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart, but heard Guo Heizi hurriedly said, "But don't worry, Master Huang and Wang are all fine. Although Prince Rashid gave up Yecheng due to insufficient food, he successfully retreated to Yutian. Now Yutian is standing firmly waiting for help."

Xu Jin sighed relieved when he heard this. It would be fine. At this time, Guo Heizi changed his mind again: "However, the situation in Yutian is not very good now, and it is probably not long before. Not long ago, after Bayi was defeated and retreated to Yarkand, Zasanhasmu was obviously anxious and sent additional personnel to attack Yutian day and night."

Xu Jin couldn't help but feel moved. He destroyed Turpan. It seemed that the old fox Hasmu was really panicked, so he attacked Yutian, attempting to destroy Prince Rashid, control the entire territory of Yerkang, and then free up his hands to deal with him with all his strength. He probably also wanted to capture Huang Dacan and Qiaoer as hostages.

If this is true, it will be easier. Even if Huang Dacan and Qiaoer fall into Hasmu's hands, they should not have any worries about their lives. On the contrary, the more fierce the Ming army fights, the safer they will be.

Xu Jin quickly weighed the pros and cons in his mind, and immediately made a preliminary plan, so he asked again: "Did you go to the city to see Huang Shaoyun himself?"

Guo Heizi shook his head and said, "My subordinates and Lao Song originally planned to sneak into the city, but Hasmu's army surrounded the four cities and attacked them day and night. Seeing that we had no chance to enter the city, we quickly came back to report to the general."

Xu Jin nodded and said, "Guo Qianhu, big eyes, you have done this very well. I will remember you some merits and go down and rest."

After sending the two men away, Xu Jin immediately summoned the generals to discuss the issue of sending troops to Yerkang.

Since taking Hami two months ago, the complete logistics supply line has been quickly built, so the army's supply is sufficient now, and the entire Turpan has been flattened, so everything is ready and you can send troops south to attack Yerkang at any time.

It is worth mentioning here that the logistics supply line that runs through the entire Turpan was built so quickly, thanks to Xu Jin's bold innovative attempt.

It turned out that Xu Jin outsourced the supply "business" of the army to SF Express, which was sent by the official troops to provide security, and military supplies were completely carried by SF Express, which resulted in more than N times the overall efficiency.

Speaking of which, SF Express Car Horses Store was founded by Xu Jin in Shangrao, Jiangxi. With the escort of Jiajing, the backstage boss, and the continuous investment of the powerful and powerful over the years, SF Express Car Horses Store has become the leader of the Ming Dynasty's transportation industry. It is a giant "transportation company" with business spread all over the country. Its strength is excellent. No matter when and where, tens of thousands of carriages can be mobilized within five days. The efficiency is so high that it can surpass the official ten streets.

It is recognized that private enterprises are efficient, after all, who will not be able to get along with making money? Although the official can force the recruitment of people, as the saying goes, the forced resignation of melons is not sweet, and the labor force recruitment is not a little bit of poor enthusiasm for labor.

So Xu Jin thought about it and simply outsourced logistics transportation to SF Express. It not only improves efficiency, increases people's income, and promotes economic growth. Why not do it? Anyway, the treasury of the Ming Dynasty now has a lot of money.

Of course, after purging the Turpan treasury, the income and expenditure of the Pingxi army are basically balanced. Except for the time when the troops were sent, Xu Jin has not yet reached out to the Ministry of War for silver.

This is probably what Sun Tzu said in the Art of War that fights to support the war. If you eat the enemy for one bench, you should be twenty benches. If you don’t want to eat one stone for twenty benches, you should be twenty benches. Therefore, you will be wise to eat the enemy.

Let’s get back to the point, after Xu Jin summoned all the generals to discuss, the next day, that is, on the 12th day of June of the seventh year of Jiajing, the Ming army divided into two groups and headed south with murderous intent, and pointed directly at the Yarkand Khanate. A large army was led by Yu Dayou, with a force of 30,000. From the east to the south, the power was lost (now the Korla area), crossing the eastern edge of the desert in the Tarmu Basin, and attacking Ruoqiang; another large army was led by Xu Jin himself, attacking Balimang and Ada in the middle of the Tarmu River.

Yu Dayou is worthy of being the only coach. He led an army of 30,000 and went south with an unstoppable force, crossing the Tarim River from the fork force. In less than a month, he successfully captured the Oriental City of Ruoqiang, the important city of Yerkang, and the front of the army immediately pointed to the next city - Qiemo!

And then we go west to Khotan. Huang Dacan, Wang Cuiqiao and others are now trapped in Khotan!

Yu Dayou on the Eastern Front was progressing smoothly, but Xu Jin encountered some trouble on the Western Front. After all, Balimang and Ada areas are the northern gateways of Shache, the capital of Yarkand, so Hasmu sent heavy troops to guard it.

However, after about a month of fierce fighting between the two sides, the Ming army finally defeated the 30,000 defenders of Yarkand with continuous firepower, successfully captured Bamangli and Ada, and controlled the middle reaches of the Tarim River. Next, you can go west to take Kashgar and go south to attack the capital of Yarkand, Shache.
