977, Battle of Jiuyuan 1

As soon as I listened to it, I felt happy from the sky.

In his heart, he was actually afraid of Yang Fan. Now the eunuchs in the capital palace were all in awe of Yang Fan. How could he provoke someone who was nine thousand years old? He was worried about how to talk to Yang Fan. He didn't expect Yang Fan to be so

Be considerate.

In fact, Zhang Shize and Jiang Bingzhong were both sent by Chongzhen to learn their skills. They will be reused in the future. The same goes for these eunuchs. After all, Yang Fan is not a direct descendant. Chongzhen is suspicious, but he still trusts the old people in Qiandi.

Yang Fan had only been in the Ming Dynasty for just two years. He saw with his own eyes that the emperor was always changing. He was afraid that a person would gain power after staying in the same position for a long time. He was used first, and then he was driven back to Zunhua. Later, he planned

The positions were reversed and the soldiers trained by Yang Fan to guard Qianhu were taken away and given to Zhang Shize.

He also took away the 6,000 Rumi gunmen trained by Zhang Shize and gave them to Zhou Yuji, a subordinate of Yang Fan. He removed both of their military powers. Now they used Yang Fan and Zhang Shize to conquer Mongolia in the west. However, the battle was only half over.

He also planned to let Jiang Bingzhong divide Zhang Shize's military power, and also began to train eunuchs to supervise the army.

But Yang Fan didn't feel any discomfort in his heart. In history, this man had fifty bachelors in just seventeen years, and was known as the Fifty Prime Ministers of Chongzhen. Chongzhen was such a mean and ungrateful master. He was not like that

, Yang Fan felt uneasy. Because history had deviated from its direction, it was even harder for Yang Fan to predict the future.

"Tomorrow the army will go out to attack Jiuyuan, and Eunuch Gao will personally participate in the military planes and make plans." Yang Fan said with a smile.

Gao Qiqian was even more elated. He knew nothing about military aircraft. This was purely an opportunity for him to make a contribution. The emperor was more cautious, especially with Yang Fan. He wanted to use it but also be on guard. This time he didn't dare to say anything to Yang Fan.

The supervisory army is only here to announce the decree, and to inspect the situation in the northwest.

Yang Fan was not flattering him, but he wanted them to sincerely learn some military knowledge and stop giving blind orders in the future. The bad military of the Ming Dynasty was caused by these civil servants and eunuchs who did not understand military affairs and played the piano randomly.

When he arrived at Guihua City, Yang Fan alone drew the best houses for these eunuchs to live in the West Garden of the Palace. Now the Palace is the residence of the Marshal. The East Garden is occupied by civil servants and the attachés of the Jinyiwei East Factory. The West Garden is

Arranged for these eunuchs to stay.

Yang Fan hurried back to his bedroom in the second hall to rest, and Zhang Shize came. Yang Fan knew that this guy was holding in his anger today. He smiled and had no choice but to let the soldiers serve tea.

"How are you going to house these gelded dogs?" Zhang Shize said with a sneer.

"Let them join the military plane and participate in strategic meetings. Gao Qi will stay in the commander's tent, and the others will be assigned to various regiments and camps." Yang Fan said.

"Aren't you afraid that they will interfere with our military arrangements? If you open this hole and let the eunuchs interfere with the Beijing camp, there will be endless troubles." Zhang Shize said anxiously. When he saw Yang Fan dragging Gao Qiqi into the car, he knew that something was definitely up to them.

The people must have talked about something in the car.

Yang Fan shook his head helplessly and asked, "Can you prevent His Majesty from not using these people to supervise the army?"

Zhang Shize was speechless for a moment. Indeed, he was powerless to stop him at this point.

"Now His Majesty's intention is clear. Since it can't be stopped, it's better not to stop it. Let them also learn military knowledge in advance, so as not to make blind orders in the future and kill the three armies."

Zhang Shize shook his head and said: "This is not a question of whether you understand the military or not. They abolish the public service for private reasons entirely because of their own interests. Even if they understand the military, what can they do?"

Zhang Shize saw clearly that the eunuchs and the emperor each got what they needed. These people were so greedy that they increased the extent to which the officers could deduct military pay in disguise. They complicated the simple operations and military issues in the army.

The political struggle became the guiding ideology of the military.

"This time, they are actually here to gain qualifications and learn. They will not tell us what to do. They themselves also know the boundaries. It is not yet time for them to show their teeth. Maybe it will be possible in another four or five years."

Yang Fan said

"We don't lack them in terms of etiquette, money, and merit. If they don't know what's good and what's good, they'll do something wrong. It just so happens that in addition to the ministers stationed in Zang, I think there are still some eunuchs stationed in Zang. They don't need to go back to the capital.

"Yang Fan sneered.

Zhang Shize sighed and said: "When Your Majesty first came to the throne, he was so smart and wise, which raised people's hopes for the future of the Ming Dynasty. But this year, Your Majesty, alas! I won't talk anymore."

What His Majesty wants to do will definitely be done. Zhang Shize doesn't understand in his heart. It's just that the Beijing camp has just gained a new atmosphere in the hands of him and Yang Fan. Just come here and do it like this. No matter how good the army is, it can't be done.

Wasted.

Yang Fan caressed his back and said: "Don't be discouraged, but do good things and don't worry about the future. This is the norm in the Ming Dynasty. We can train troops in Nanyuan without any restrictions. It is a special treatment under special circumstances."

.Everyone has different abilities, but everyone can change some things. As long as you are willing to do it, just do what you can. Many times, due to various circumstances, it is difficult to achieve the ideal state for many things.

. Then you can do as much as you want."

Yang Fan also sympathizes with Zhang Shize in his heart. He was born rich and could achieve better than 99% of people without doing anything in his life. However, he still wants to do something. He is regarded as the best among the nobles of this generation.

It's rare to be ambitious.

After fighting this battle, he can hand over the capital camp and leave. As a nobleman, Zhang Shize will have to continue to tangle with these eunuchs and civil servants. Yang Fan plans to finish this battle and lead his own troops.

I've done what I wanted to do. I don't want to waste time in the quagmire of Ming Dynasty anymore.

It has been a century and a half since the Age of Discovery. In the Spanish Netherlands, the power of capital has begun to shake the world. The Ming Dynasty has begun to fall behind. Ten thousand years is too long, so seize the day.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Yang Fan must solve the land power problem in Eurasia as soon as possible, and then turn to sea power. What land power depends on is steam locomotives and railways. Sea power depends on

The only ones are clipper ships and steam engine ships.

Within three years, Yang Fan will build the railway to Yinli.

Yang Fan's small train is not the standard track train of later generations. It has a low load capacity and slow speed, and the track is laid very quickly. The small train tracks in forest areas can be laid for one or two thousand kilometers in a year.

In fact, in the initial stage of railways, 762mm light narrow gauge should be promoted.

The development of civilization requires staged progress. In the early stage, it is more important to have it first, so that it can be laid quickly, saving labor and materials. Rapidly covering the entire continent and prioritizing the integration of continental resources is the first element.

For the same 10,000 kilometers, narrow gauge can complete the project several years in advance. It is like a chain that tightly binds the jurisdiction and does not break away from the rule. There is not much demand for transportation capacity in the early stage, and anything above narrow gauge is a waste, not to mention that with the development of technology, narrow gauge can also

Developing towards large transport capacity.

When productivity and heavy-duty track construction equipment are sufficient, wide-gauge high-speed railways will be developed and standard tracks will be skipped. At this time, the old narrow gauges will be retained as mainland automatic freight conveyor belts, specifically as freight systems.

Now, due to simultaneous construction in sections, the 762mm track of the small train has been built from Beijing to Zhangjiakou. By the end of this year, the sections from Beijing to Tianjin, Xincheng, Zhangjiakou, Jining, and Zhuozishan to Guihua will be completed.

By then, the Hetao area will be closely connected with the seaport of Beizhili. Guihua City will also be firmly occupied. Yang Fan's future westward supply of materials will also be guaranteed.

Yang Fan patted Zhang Shize on the shoulder and said: "There is no need to dwell on this matter. Let's think about it and set off tomorrow to attack Jiuyuan."
