Chapter 648: A glass of wine releases military power

"In order to strengthen the combat effectiveness of your towns, in addition to going to Beijing for training and exchange to other towns for study, the North will also transfer officers at all levels from the imperial army and a group of professional logistics civilians to be sent to your towns to strengthen them.

Serving as Deputy “What do you think?

The emperor held a glass of wine and asked the generals, "Admiral of Liaodong and Commander-in-Chief of Dongjiang Town." Ming, who was wearing the seal of the vanguard of Liaoning, looked around with his peripheral vision and found that no one immediately expressed his position, so he stood up first and said, "Listen to the arrangement."

, complete obedience to the will”

Ming Dynasty returned to Liaodong after the surrender of Chuzhou, and development was smooth. Now he has one outer town, two villages, and three regiments to practice the town. He controls a large area and even farms in North Korea on the east bank of the Yalu River.

, there are hundreds of thousands of people in the controlled area. Last year, the emperor's imperial camp adjusted the establishment, and one town increased from 6,800 to 14,000. Ming Ye immediately expanded the number of troops. He now controls nearly a thousand miles of coastline on both sides of the Yalu River Estuary. Life is very nourishing, not only

We opened a port for trade in Pi Dao and opened many markets to trade with the Koreans and even the Japanese. We also went directly into the inland to conduct trade with the Jurchens and Mongols. The profits were extremely rich and they also engaged in large-scale farming. The military threat was also

Not much, it was a very peaceful day. The only flaw was that the DPRK only gave him this admiral guide. However, the DPRK also had four Yuying towns in Liaodong, not only one town, but also one town in Dalian, Lushun, and this one in Zhenjiang on the Yalu River.

Several towns of imperial camps made Ming dare not be careless at all times. Now the Koreans have organized and trained a new army of soldiers in Yawei, which makes him a little uneasy. The emperor's current proposal is obviously to take back the military power of the outer towns, so he has spoken out to support it.

"Xia, now there are four imperial camps in Liaodong, and North Korea has also made up the night. It is retreating steadily. It is thought that our Dongjiang Town is no longer needed. Chen Doujiu requested that Dongjiang Town be abolished or turned into a local guard. Zhu Yihai, the emperor, smiled and looked at it.

Ming Ming, this guy is very slippery. Although he is a loser, he has made some achievements since the surrender. Last year, the Liaodong Ming Army basically cleared the Qing army's strongholds along the coast. The next stage is to go deep into the inland.

The overall plan is to first attack Haizhou, Dingyang, and Shenyang on the other side of the river plain. The plan is to first take the front line of the Liaohe River and directly attack the enemy's key points in Jinzhou, Guangning, Ningyuan and other places in western Liaoning. There is no rush to attack and break the captives.

On the way back, he would go to his hometown and go to Jianzhouwei and other places on the upper reaches of the Yalu River. This would be a secondary purpose, and the Ming Dynasty and North Korea would fight to contain some troops.

The town's soldiers and horses are strong and worthy of praise. In the next year's war, the Liaodong imperial camp will be responsible for attacking Liaoshen, while your Dongjiang town and Korean soldiers will be responsible for building the state defense."

Ming Ming was a little panicked when he heard the emperor said that he had strong soldiers and horses in Dongjiang and was able to train troops. "If you have merit, you will be rewarded. I will make you the Duke of Dongjiang County, and you will be granted the title of 300 households. Work hard."

Ming hurriedly knelt down to thank You Ming for taking the lead in taking such an active stance. Naturally, Li Chixin and other generals had no reason to object to the emperor's plan to send deputies to each town and army at all levels, and to transfer 10% of the officers to study in the capital, and 10% of the officers to study in the capital.

The officers went to other towns to communicate. They knew this purpose, but they couldn't refuse. Fortunately, the emperor really cared about their achievements, so next, like Ming Dynasty, all the generals had their own rewards. Like Li Chi, they were already the Duke of the country. This time

It is to increase the number of feudal households, promote them to official ranks, and even grant them to their sons. For example, those who have made meritorious service in the military, such as being summoned to the Imperial College, or studying in the two halls, or joining the four guards, studying in the martial arts hall, etc.

Those who were originally uncles, such as Liu Tichun and others, were directly promoted and even given the title of clan. They were all promoted. The clan was directly promoted to Duke. Even Jin Shengmi Layin was promoted to Duke. He Qi, Zhang An and other Jin Dukes were promoted directly.

All the generals who had been transferred to the garrison before were granted real titles, and they were all rewarded with promotions. Even the generals in Xiying who had just surrendered last year were granted the title of Zhu Dingguo, who was adopted by the emperor as his adopted son. Now, like Zhu Chenggong and the other four, they are all granted the title.

Gong and Sun Kewang were all promoted to the county. There were still several generals in Shunying who were promoted to higher ranks and rewarded with money. Yinshun camp and the two Chong Dynasty rebels in Xiying were now granted the title of Gong Zongbing and countless others.

And these people have indeed made a lot of contributions in the Shaotian Dynasty in the past few years. Even Xiying, which was attached to the army last year, was reorganized into a town and fought several vicious battles with the Qing army during the siege of the town. Not only did it suffer heavy losses,

After defeating Li Guo, they even climbed over the mountains and entered Lingda Mountain to ambush and intercept Wu Sangui's reinforcements. Wu Sangui was so defeated that he had to abandon his armor and return to Chang'an to celebrate his achievements in stabilizing Youhexi and Wang Yongzhen of Wu Dading.

Although Jin Sheng, Zhang An and others have not made any great contributions in the past two years, Jiangxi gave Zhu Yihai a lot of help in the past. In recent years, he has been able to maintain stability in the local area without causing any trouble. It is because of his help.

Very busy. "Next year, I plan to continue the Northern Expedition and regain the old capital in one fell swoop."

"At the same time, we will also launch a campaign against Liaoshen outside the pass to break the Zi Laojiu point."

Zhu Yihai looked at these foreign generals with troops and horses in their hands. "I will personally take charge of the task of attacking Beijing, but I also need help from everyone on the outside."

"Now Shandong has been completely recovered, but there is still Nanyang in Henan that has not been recovered, and most of Hubei is still in the hands of the Qing army. Therefore, the plan is to train in the outer towns of Shandong and Henan, then go west to join the troops from Jiangxi and Huguang, and capture the state first. Pull it out, then encircle Nanyang and then attack Yang, completely encircling the Qing army in Hubei, and then annihilate the "Sichuan and Guizhou troops one by one." Then reinforce Hanzhong, make sure to capture the town, and directly attack the troops from Gansu and Ningxia in Guanzhong. Extension of northern Shaanxi, cleaning up the northern part of Guanzhong, the imperial camp of Liaodong, attacking Liaoshen, Waizhen, North Korea to build a prefecture, and guarding Zhu Yihai's direct northern expedition, attacking the imperial camp of Beijing, the left army to attack the prefecture, Shandong and Henan Waizhen regiments to cooperate with Jiangxi and Huguang soldiers to attack Sichuan and Guiyou To attack the city in Hanzhong, to march into Guanzhong, Gansu, and Ningxia to attack northern Shaanxi, the army is divided into several battle regiments. Tasks are assigned to various outer towns and even villages, and regiment training must be mobilized. Although the imperial camp is the elite main force, the battles cannot all be fought by the imperial camp. Come and fight "If the captives from all over the country abandon the city and flee back, and return to rescue Beijing, then you will block them along the way and cannot allow them to evacuate smoothly. They must bite off a few pieces of flesh."

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Zhu Yihai is not willing to mobilize soldiers from all over the country to Beijing to fight against the king. The defense of Beijing must drag down and bite the Qing troops from all over the country. "Now... There are only so many living forces. The Mongolian tribes in Southern Mongolia are now bitten by Moxi and Mobei Mongolians, and it is difficult for them to free their hands to rescue their son. And with the current situation, they may not be able to fight for their son with all their strength."

"There are still many Jurchen tribes in the Baishan and Heishui outside the Pass, but as long as we can capture Liaoshen, they will not be able to rescue Beijing."

"The only soldiers who can really come back are Wu Sangui and Li Guo from Chang'an, Le from Tianjin, and Luck Dehun from Huguang. These soldiers are scattered in several places, and they are not strong. But if they all rush to Beijing, There are no less than 200,000 people under the city, so we must hold them back."

Zhu Yihai's original plan was to take over Shandong, then go all out to take over Henan next year, and then use another year to regain Hubei. If this were the case, the pace would be slower, but the pressure would be less, and the people's livelihood and economy in the Central Plains could be restored as quickly as possible, but it would not be an invasion. The atrocities in the occupied areas are becoming more and more violent. If they are allowed to occupy them for a few more years, those places may be turned into no-man's land. Many ministers also believe that they should work hard to capture Beijing first, then Henan, Hebei, Shaanxi, Shanxi, Liaoxi and Liaodong. The sons of other places will also lose their fighting spirit, especially in the provinces within the Guan pass. Zhu Yihai thought about it again and again. He thought it made sense, so he decided to give it a try. The main force of the imperial camp went straight to Beijing and let other people from all walks of life find a way. If you succeed in dragging down the soldiers from all over the country and seal their throats with a sword, it is naturally the best. If you fail, it will not be too late to think about it in the long run. You can also take this opportunity to give these soldiers some sand, or even transfer them away from their base camp. "For this time The war raised a lot of money, including taxes, special funds, donations, and the issuance of national bonds. Don't worry about the money. A lot of grain and grass have been stored in transfer warehouses in various places to wait for spring plowing. Then start sending out troops. At that time, the whole country will dispatch troops and horses to launch an offensive, and ask the governors of various places to allocate money and food to you. The newly appointed deputy will be responsible for the allocation and distribution of food, ensuring that every soldier can get a sum of money. The reward of silver can also ensure that you will not go hungry during the march and war!"

Such a large-scale war will consume an astonishing amount of money and food. Even with the current reserves of the government, this war will not last long. If Zhu Yihai cannot end the battle within half a year, then the money and food will not be able to support the spring sowing early rice production period.

Harvest can be harvested in three to four months, and troops can be sent out after spring plowing. If the battle continues, one can harvest another grain to supplement the late rice, which will last longer. Zhu Yihai's plan is to launch an all-out offensive after spring plowing. If he cannot capture Beijing before winter,

, then this battle will be difficult to fight. The troops surrounding Beijing can work hard to ensure supplies, but soldiers and horses from other places will definitely not be able to supply. "Please assign tasks, and we will ensure that we complete the tasks!"

Li Chixin took the lead in expressing his determination. Mila Yin, He Qi, Wu Dading, Liu Tichun, Zong Di, Jin Sheng, etc. also all expressed their willingness to establish a military order.
