Thinking of this, Chongzhen wished he could fly back to Nanjing with his wings.

When he returned this time, Chongzhen was determined to implement the industrialization of the steam engine. Before the steam engine was industrialized, he was not going to leave Nanjing again.

Because all the problems now are stuck in the industrialization of the steam engine.

Only when steam power replaces manual work on a large scale can the industry of Ming Dynasty take a qualitative leap and usher in a real industrial revolution, that is, the first industrial revolution.

So this time when I go back, I have to solve the problem of the steam engine.

But before going back, the aftermath of Liaodong must be dealt with first.

At the moment Chongzhen said again: "Youzhen, Jiannu will definitely not give up after the Hunhe defeat, because they cannot bear the consequences of the fall of Liaodong. If there is no accident, Jiannu will definitely make a comeback, but this time there is no need Then fight Jiannu in the field, retreat to Gaizhou Guard as much as possible, and use the preset fortifications of Gaizhou Guard to fight a war of attrition with Jian Nu."

The main purpose of this Hunhe battle was to build up confidence. Now that this goal has been achieved, and more than half of the [-] troops participating in the battle were killed or injured, so at this time, they can no longer take risks in field battles with Jiannu.

At this time, it is most wise to retreat to Gaizhou and fight a war of attrition with Jiannu.

Zheng Sen was a little worried: "My lord, if our army retreats to Gaizhou, will Jiannu give up fighting with our army and just station troops in Shenyang, Liaoyang and Haizhou? After all, the most important thing for Jiannu to send troops to Liaodong this time is In order to ensure the safety of Horqin Mongolia’s flanks, stationing troops in Shenyang, Liaoyang and Haizhou can also achieve the goal.”

Xu Yingwei said: "If our army had directly retreated to defend Gaizhouwei before, there is a high probability that Jiannu would only station troops in Shenyang, Liaoyang or Haizhou to confront our army. To regain the position in a battle, I am afraid that it will be difficult to explain all aspects, it will be embarrassing, and it will be easy to lose the morale of the army."

"It's okay to confront." Chongzhen waved his hand and said, "Wait until the reinforcements arrive, wait until the wounded soldiers recover and return to the team, and wait until the main force of slavery returns to Shanhaiguan, and then send troops to push all the way from Haizhouwei, Liaoyang, and Shenyang. At that time, Jiannu had to send troops from Beijing to rescue him, so it was Jiannu who made the trouble.”

"Understood." Zheng Sen was finally convinced now.

Xin said that it was really clever to fight the war of attrition with Jiannu in Liaodong.

Chongzhen said again: "Before I leave, I have two good news to tell you."

Hearing this, Xu Yingwei and Zheng Sen suddenly lifted their spirits and asked at the same time: "Your Majesty, did Brother Wuheng also win the battle at Dagukou?"

"That's right." Chongzhen laughed.

"Using Jiannu's thinking that our army will only defend and dare not attack, Yan Heng unexpectedly led an infantry brigade to attack the newly arrived Jiannu at night, beheading more than 2000 Jiannu in one fell swoop!"

After a short pause, he continued: "This happened a few days ago. Because the North Sea was half-frozen, so the news couldn't come through. The North Sea was completely frozen a few days ago, so the news came."

"That's great." Xu Yingwei said with a smile, "As expected of Brother Wuheng, he will always be a role model for us."

"Youzhen, you are humble. The victory of the Hunhe River is much better than that of Juheng in Dagukou. Now you, Xu Yingwei, are the role model for all scholars." Chongzhen said with a smile.

"I'm afraid." Xu Yingwei cupped his hands and asked again, "My lord, what's the other piece of good news?"

"Another piece of good news is that Sichuan has also won the battle." Chongzhen's mouth turned inexplicable.

I didn't expect this to be true. I really underestimated Li Xiangjun before.

At first, Chongzhen only planned to train Li Xiangjun as the captain of the guard of honor.

Later, due to Qin Liangyu's intervention, Li Xiangjun really became a general.

But even if Li Xiangjun really became a general, Chongzhen didn't expect anything from her.

What do you think, a famous prostitute from a brothel, expecting her to transform into a famous general?play it.

However, the reality gave Chongzhen a slap in the face, and Li Xiangjun actually showed the appearance of a famous general in Sichuan.

Li Xiangjun's performance in the battle to regain Zhenxiong, Wusa, Gulin, and the four prefectures of Xuzhou this time was really impressive. Chongzhen's first reaction after receiving the battle report was to suspect that Qin Liangyu had falsely reported his military exploits.

Because Li Xiangjun's battle was really amazingly beautiful.

Specifically, after Qin Liangyu's army retreated to Chongqing Mansion, Li Xiangjun's [-] partial division did not withdraw from Zunyi Mansion, nor did they passively defend. Instead, they deployed [-] soldiers along the east bank of Chishui to prevent Yuan Tao's rebels from entering. Zunyi Prefecture, and then led the remaining [-] troops deep into the Wumeng Mountains.

These [-] troops were not native soldiers from western Hunan and Hubei, but female soldiers recruited in Nanjing.

Taking advantage of the reputation of Mrs. Xiangjun, the affinity of female soldiers, and the national policy of equalizing land, Li Xiangjun miraculously won the support of most of the local people in Wumeng Mountain.

With the support of the local indigenous people, everything will come naturally.

Without much effort, Li Xiangjun calmed down Zhenxiong, Usa, and Han officials in Gulin Prefecture, and then led 2000 female soldiers plus [-] native soldiers to cross the [-]-meter-high Wumeng Mountain and suddenly appeared in the Behind Yuan Tao's rebel army, Yuan Tao's rebel army was caught off guard and defeated by Li Xiangjun, and he himself died in the rebellion army.

There are some things that Chongzhen really does not want to compare, but forces him to compare.

Huaxia led [-] new troops equipped with flintlock guns to put down the rebellion in Guangxi, and has made no achievements until now.

However, Li Xiangjun relied on 3 female soldiers to pacify the four mansions without bloodshed, annihilated more than [-] rebels of Yuan Tao in one fell swoop, and even beheaded Yuan Tao among the rebels.

Xu Yingwei said in amazement: "Didn't the [-] recruits who went to Sichuan have returned to Huguang? And the more than [-] town soldiers from the Qin Department Hall have also withdrawn to the east of Sichuan. Who is it that pacified the Zhenxiong Fourth Mansion?"

Zheng Sen then asked: "Could it be the [-] partial teacher of Concubine Li?"

"To be more precise, it is Concubine Li's five thousand female soldiers." Chongzhen said with a smile.

"What? Five thousand female soldiers?" Xu Yingwei and Zheng Sen's eyes widened, which was unexpected.

"How, didn't you expect it?" Chongzhen sighed, "Concubine Li put down Zhenxiong, Wusa, Gulin and the four prefectures of Xuzhou with only five thousand female soldiers, and wiped out Yuan Tao's thirty thousand rebels in one fell swoop. Kill Yuan Tao."

After a pause, Chongzhen said again: "The Tang newspaper said that Yuan Tao was beaten to death by Concubine Li with a pistol. I don't believe it. It must be that Zhongzhenhou said so deliberately in order to show his merits to Concubine Li. It won't be broken."

After a while, Xu Yingwei sighed and said: "Your Majesty, I really didn't expect Concubine Li to have such a strategy. It really makes us men feel ashamed."

Zheng Sen was also ashamed: "I am not as good as Concubine Li."

"Hey." Chongzhen waved his hand and said, "Concubine Li did well in Eastern Sichuan, but you don't have to be ashamed of it. How does Yuan Taowu Dading compare with Jiannu?"

"The reason why I told you this is just to let you two know."

"Right now, my Ming Dynasty has a good momentum. Not only is all the industries in the south of the Yangtze River prosperous, but it is also winning every victory in the military."

After a pause, Chongzhen said loudly again: "The so-called heaven and earth have the same power when transported, but heroes are not free when transported. This shows that the fate of the country has returned to me, Daming, so don't put too much pressure on you."

……

Because North Korea is closer to Liaodong, it first received the news of the Hunhe victory.

The king of Joseon, Li Ji, was already sick and unable to go to court, so during this period of time, the government was always represented by Linping Dajun Li.

After Li received the good news from Liaodong, he ordered Kuaima to go to Incheon to report to Zhu Cijiong, and at the same time went to Jingfu Palace to meet Li Zhen in person.

"Hunhe Great Victory?"

"Beheaded more than [-] Jiannu?"

Li Zhen's eyes widened suddenly, with an expression of disbelief.

Li nodded and said: "This matter should be true. If it is beheaded at the level of two hundred or two thousand, it may still be forged by the chief general of the Ming army in Liaodong, but no one dares to behead more than [-]. fake."

"Well, your analysis is reasonable, and this matter should be credible." Li Zhen agreed.

"It's actually reasonable." Li Dao, "Father, do you still remember the Ming and Qing battles outside Zhangyi Gate? The most elite three thousand Ba Yala soldiers in the Qing Dynasty were killed by the three thousand new troops of the Ming Dynasty." Annihilate! As far as I know, there are hundreds of thousands of new troops like this in Ming Dynasty, at least the tens of thousands of new troops in Liaodong are not under the three thousand new troops led by King Ding."

"It's like a lifetime away, and it's really like a lifetime away from here." Li Jing shook his head and said with a sigh, "Could it be that the Ming Dynasty will reproduce the prosperity of the Wanli period again? When my father was young, the Ming army who entered the court to fight was so brave and good at fighting."

Li shook his head and said: "Father, my son also read the historical materials of the Japanese Invasion in Renchen, and thought that the Ming army in the Wanli period might not be as good as the Ming army today, because the strength of the Ming army in the Wanli period was only the strength of the soldiers, and the other Most of the military generals are greedy and contemptible, but today's Ming army is not only capable of soldiers and not afraid of death, but most of its generals are soldiers who sacrificed their lives for the country."

"Scholar? You almost forgot if you didn't mention the father." Li Yan nodded and said, "The three thousand troops led by King Ding are all men in shirts. Leading troops like a general?"

"Father and king don't know something, but the soldiers are really powerful when they lead the army." Li said as he recalled the battle of Shengjing.

"Backed by the belief of guarding the Confucian ancestral temple in the clothes of the Han family, these scholars truly sacrificed their lives, and their courage to die far surpassed that of ordinary warriors, and this must have been the key to the Ming army's victory in the Hunhe River. "

"Understood, Emperor Chongzhen is going to recreate the national destiny for the Ming Dynasty for another 300 years." Li Yan said, "Son, Mencius, King Hui of Liang, said that only a wise man can make a big deal out of a small matter, so the Tai Wang made a big deal out of a small matter, and Gou Jian served Wu. Today, the Ming Dynasty is booming, and it is not impossible to reproduce the Wanli and even the Yongle prosperity, so I must be humble in North Korea."

"I will always remember my father's teachings." Li Chang bowed to the ground.
