I'm a big dick

Chapter 302 After the War ([-])

The cold of winter is still there, and it will be more than a month before we can smell the breath of spring.The training of the Ming Army was in full swing, and more than 1 Liao people were repairing and building houses to settle down.

Apart from the islands, Luda is already the most stable area occupied by Dongjiang Town.It is almost impossible for Jiannu to break through the trench digging and cutting, dense fortifications, and heavy defense at Nanguan.

Not only Zhang Pan and Kong Youde have such confidence, but Mao Wenlong also feels very stable.That's why a group of Liao people from the Dongjiang River were moved to Luda.According to the emperor's wishes, it is best for the Liao people to be resettled locally.

According to the size and carrying capacity, it is no problem to resettle [-] to [-] people, or even more than [-] people in the Luda area.

Although the amount of arable land is not enough to feed so many people, it is easier and more convenient to transport food by sea, plus other sideline jobs, than to move to the interior.

Moreover, these resettled Liao people will also provide Dongjiang Town with a steady stream of soldiers, creating increasing pressure on Jiannu.

Now, the abandoned villages and villages have been repaired and rebuilt, and the land has been divided.The arrival of a large number of immigrants has made the Luda area more popular, and it is gradually getting rid of the desolate scene destroyed by the war.

"Open the hammer to the charge state."

"Open the medicine pot!"

"Get the medicine bag!"

"Flip the medicine bag!"

"Finger stuck medicine!"

"Bite the medicine bag!"

"Pack up the primer!"

"Close the fire door!"

................
Following the officer's loud commands, the soldiers kept repeating, mastering the steps of loading ammunition and ammunition, which were much simpler than before.

Simplification is simplification, but the previous actions have formed memory, and it takes a process to change them.

Zhang Pan took a step away unobtrusively, avoiding the smoke that Kong Youde sprayed with gusto, and continued to watch the soldiers' training intently.

The court's long-term plan is beyond his ability to guess, just like this dressing training.

This was arranged long ago, not a temporary decision made because of Ningyuan's great victory.In that case, it will definitely be too late in time.

In other words, the course of the war was well controlled by the court, or by the emperor at the strategic level.At least so far, everything seems to be proceeding in an orderly manner.

"Did you see it?" A smell of smoke came over, and Kong Youde approached without interest, pointing and said: "This new musket is much faster to fire than the old one, and the soldiers can stand close together. The firepower is more than doubled!"

Zhang Pan nodded and said, "This is the conclusion drawn from martial arts research and practical training in the Beijing camp. More importantly, it can also be used in normal rainy and snowy days, which can solve a big problem."

"That's right, that's right." Kong Youde nodded again and again, and said, "This way you don't have to worry too much about the impact of the weather, and you dare to fight Jiannu for a long time in the wild."

Zhang Pan smiled and said, "If we can change all our outfits within half a year, we will be the ones launching the offensive this autumn and winter, right?"

Kong Youde blinked his eyes and said: "Even if only half of the troops change their outfits, I think they can launch an attack. This autumn, before the autumn harvest, even if you can't recreate the slaves, try to burn all the crops in the three guards in southern Liaoning. It will be difficult for Jiannu to survive the winter."

"This is a good way." Zhang Pan praised: "The siege and blockade is to make Jiannu lack of supplies and difficult to grow. Burning fields and cutting off food is equivalent to taking food from Jiannu's mouth, and the effect is even more obvious."

After a pause, Zhang Pan shook his head helplessly, and said, "It's just that the Liao people under the rule of Jiannu will suffer."

Kong Youde glanced at Zhang Pan, and felt a little slanderous about his soft-heartedness, but he didn't say anything.

In order to change the subject, Kong Youde patted the short gun on his waist again with a smile, and said, "If you have time, let's try it out and see whose marksmanship is better?"

Zhang Pan chuckled, he also liked the short flintlock blunderbuss bestowed by the emperor, especially the engravings of "loyalty and courage" and "fearlessness" on both sides of the short blunderbuss handle, which were not exactly his aspirations and aspirations.

"These guys——" Kong Youde suddenly turned his eyes, and cursed with a smile: "Are they here to say goodbye? It's their good fortune for big men to do this kind of mother-in-law's business."

The redistribution of military officers into martial arts is an important means for the emperor to control the army.Only mid-level officers, or lower-level officers with outstanding performance, will have this opportunity and treatment.

For example, these military officers who are going to study martial arts may not necessarily return to the original army after the semester is over.

However, Zhu Youxiao is still not too worried about the emergence of warlords through the wooing of middle and lower-level officers, as well as the control of food and military law.

Zhang Pan turned his head and saw several military officers coming hand in hand, he couldn't help laughing, and went up to him with Kong Youde.

Phi Island.

Ningyuan was victorious, and the headquarters of Dongjiang Town did not take much action.

Except that Mao Chenglu led his troops to fight together in Luda, although there were small victories, the containment effect was very limited, or even non-existent.

Because Nurhachi didn't receive the urgent report at all, nor did he retreat because of containment.

But that doesn't matter, Ningyuan is exceptionally strong, with strong soldiers and horses, and more sophisticated and sufficient weapons and equipment than Dongjiang Town, so it doesn't need containment or support.

Zhu Youxiao was already very satisfied with being able to take advantage of the old slave leading his troops to win a small victory and weaken Jiannu's strength.He doesn't care much about the gains now, but the combat power and mental state of the troops.

So, the reward that should be rewarded, the recognition that should be commended.Liao Town is a great achievement, and Dongjiang is not behind.

Boom!There was a gunshot, white smoke rose, and a hole was punched in the target more than ten meters away.

"Shuai Mao is good at marksmanship." Gou Zhenhuai applauded first, and all the generals followed suit.

Mao Wenlong waved his hands vigorously, and said with a smile: "You guys, if you can't hit someone at such a distance, don't you feel dizzy and trembling, and it's time to go home for the elderly?"

He said so, but Mao Wenlong was still in a very happy mood, and put away the imperial short gun with great care.

Although those above the leader of the Yixie have imperial gifts, they are all short guns.However, Zhang Pan and others only have a slightly better pattern, but the material is still steel.

The lieutenant general's blunderbuss has a silver handle, and the commander-level ones are inlaid with gold, and the carvings are also extremely exquisite.

The imperial gift is not about how much it is, nor whether it is valuable or not.

The emperor just rewards you with a big cake, that is also the mighty grace of the emperor, which can make people excited.The emperor is thinking of you, afraid that you will be hungry, this affection is more important than anything else!

But the division of ranks is both important and motivating.

Mao Wenlong's golden gun, isn't it enviable?Then you just work hard, maybe you can be like this in the future.

After chatting and laughing for a while, Mao Wenlong summoned the generals to discuss matters.Everyone knew that the commander-in-chief had received the order from the emperor and wanted a new arrangement, so they all sat down and waited for the commander-in-chief to speak.

Mao Wenlong ordered his soldiers to bring tea, and then smiled casually: "Those who like to smoke are free to do so, and don't have to be restrained. They are all soldiers, and it is their nature to be bold and straightforward. I don't pay so much attention to this commander."

The generals laughed, and the smokers dared not move until Mao Wenlong smoked.After a while, smoke billowed from the house.

Breathing out a puff of smoke, Mao Wenlong gave a dry cough, and said in a deep voice: "This year -- will be the year when the counter-offensive begins. The siege and blockade must be strengthened, and the battle against Jiannu must be escalated. Not only must its supplies be scarce, but it must also be weakened. its military power."

Mao Wenlong stood up, pointed at the map on the table with a pointer, and said: "The Luda area has been stabilized. Based on this, we can attack the three prefectures of Fu, Hai, and Gai, and strive to capture all the four guards in southern Liaoning or Three guards."

The pointer turned around and pointed at the Zhenjiang area again. Mao Wenlong continued: "The Zhenjiang area will be captured by the Dongjiang headquarters as much as possible, so that it will become a corner with southern Liaoning, and even be connected."

After talking about the military goal that he would try his best to achieve, Mao Wenlong looked at the generals, sat down and smoked a cigarette and said, "If you have any ideas, you can say it."

Mao Chenglu looked at others, as if he had something to say, but someone raised his eyebrows at him, as if asking him to start.

Scratching his head, Mao Chenglu considered his words, and said, "Commander, the general feels that our army's strength may not be sufficient, and I don't know how long it will take to change the muskets."

Mao Wenlong nodded slightly, and said: "Master Yuan has mobilized troops from Dengzhen, and will assist our army to defend the occupied areas. In this way, Luda, Pidao, Tieshan and other places will not take up too much of our troops."

After a pause, Mao Wenlong went on to say: "As for the replacement of muskets, it's not an excuse for our army not to launch an attack. We can use as much as the court pulls out. Don't you dare to fight with Jiannu if you use big knives, long guns, bows and arrows?"

"The last general understands." Mao Chenglu was reprimanded by his adoptive father, to be honest, but he took a look at the guy with raised eyebrows, and took him for the first bird, this bastard.

Lieutenant General Gou Zhenhuai smiled and said: "The imperial court is making every effort to build new guns. For half a year, even if we can't change them all, at least one-third of the soldiers in our Dongjiang Army will use new weapons. Excluding spearmen and knives Shield soldiers, as well as artillery, are almost equipped by the entire army."

Mao Wenlong nodded, agreeing with this conclusion, and added: "The power of the old muskets is still considerable in defensive warfare, and it can be allocated and used reasonably, and it is not necessary to discard them all."

"In addition—" Mao Wenlong stretched out his finger and emphasized: "The battle of Shiheyi, the chariot camp showed considerable power. The Ministry of War has sent drawings, and our army is required to build a large amount of equipment on the spot."

The generals discussed in low voices, and Mao Wenlong said to himself: "The army and the people will move together to build [-] vehicles as soon as possible. Each association will equip [-] vehicles, and the rest will be reserved for spare use."

"It's not difficult." Lieutenant General Chen Jisheng received Mao Wenlong's gaze and said with a smile: "The army participates in the construction, and we must pay attention to those who are ingenious. In the future, if something goes wrong, you can repair it yourself, or even build it on the spot. Replenish."

The car battalion is no stranger to the generals. There are many vehicles in the army to resist the cavalry charge and carry artillery and supplies.However, now that there are regulations and patterns, the functions are stronger and more practical.

Seeing that the generals had no objections, Mao Wenlong began to arrange work.

In addition to these, the imperial court ordered each association to expand its army by one thousand, and to equip each association with horses and artillery to improve the mobility and field capabilities of the troops.

Another big investment!The generals didn't say anything, but they understood it in their hearts.With such strong support from the imperial court, what they want is to win more battles and kill more Jiannu.

..............................

Ningyuan.

Xiong Tingbi played with the golden-handled flintlock pistol, and his thoughts were almost cleared up. He laid out paper and picked up a pen, and began to write a secret performance for the emperor.

Compared with the admiration and astonishment of Zhang Pan and others, Xiong Tingbi knew a lot.The emperor did not dare to say that he knew everything about the Ping Liao plan, but at least he understood the general idea.

But Xiong Tingbi was also surprised, surprised that the emperor was so young and so calm.Needless to say, it is this lack of haste and impetuosity that is what Jiannu fears the most and is the most difficult to deal with.

In the latest secret memorial, the emperor agreed to Xiong Tingbi's plan to move forward, and will add [-] troops to Liao Town within three months.And these ten thousand soldiers were mobilized from Jin Town, and there was even the six thousand flying cavalry battalion in the Beijing camp.

Obviously, the emperor also realized that advancing to Jinzhou and Dalinghe City was no longer the narrow area of ​​the Liaoxi Corridor.Entering the Northeast Plain to fight, the cavalry is very important.

If you add the naturalized cavalry battalion in Mangui, Liao Town already has nearly ten thousand cavalry.This far exceeds other northern military towns, and is already the number one in strength.

In addition, the emperor also told Xiong Tingbi that he would send artillery to help defend Jinzhou and Dalinghe.At the same time, a group of martial arts officers will enrich Liao Town and bring more powerful defensive skills.

The establishment of slaves is newly defeated, and the possibility of launching an attack within three months is extremely small.

What's more, spring is warm and flowers are blooming, rivers are thawing, and the large and small rivers on the way from Liaoshen to Jinzhou will also cause headaches for Jiannu.

According to Xiong Tingbi's arrangement, [-] troops were stationed in Dalinghe City as an outpost for Jinzhou; [-] troops were stationed in Jinzhou as a backing for Dalinghe City.

If Jiannu wanted to capture them one by one, they would have to pay at least 5000 casualties.Obviously, this was a loss Jian Nu could not bear.

If Jiannu besieged the city to fight for aid and wanted to take advantage of field battles, Xiong Tingbi did not plan to send troops from Ningyuan to support, but would use the navy to surround Jiannu's back route.

Therefore, Xiong Tingbi agreed and admired the emperor's request to garrison troops to hoard food supplies for two months.This means that the imperial court has to spend a lot of money to transport materials to Jinzhou and Dalinghe City.

Of course, the emperor also hoped that Liao Town could lighten the burden on the court.After advancing eastward in spring, plant some alfalfa and beans around Jinzhou to solve the problem of horse feed to some extent.

Xiong Tingbi also understood the difficulty of the emperor, and he fully agreed in the secret performance.Not only in Jinzhou, but also in Ningyuan, the planting area will be expanded to provide supplies nearby.

However, the emperor also proposed the appointment of generals. He Kegang, the guard of Jinzhou, and Jin Guofeng, the guard of Dalinghe City.

Xiong Tingbi was a little surprised by this suggestion, but he still agreed, and complimented a few words in the secret memorial, "long live wise, know people and do well".

He Kegang and Jin Guofeng are also the generals that Xiong Tingbi is more satisfied with. Although they are not ranked first or second, they are also capable of defending the city and fighting to the death.

The emperor seemed to have some prejudices against some Liao town generals, such as Zu Dashou.Xiong Tingbi stopped writing and couldn't help but fell into deep thought.
