Text_Chapter 410 Military Conference 2
"This time, I will still lead the army on the expedition. γLatest chapter reading. γβ
As soon as these words came out, a few people who were doing it were slightly commotioned, but no one persuaded them. Soldiers don't talk about politics, but they can't understand politics, they can climb to the position of major general, and a few of them are not stupid.
The field army is famous and has suppressed all the contradictions and covered them up, but once the field army changes, the world will ......... Therefore, unlike Wenchen, the generals looked very lightly at the emperor's personal conquest, and no one persuaded them, and they were even quite happy that the emperor personally controlled the army.
It is better to be the pillar of the emperor, how can it be controlled by the civil officials, and the treatment of the two is completely different.
"Everyone participated in the military enlargement meeting a few days ago, and I won't talk about too much, this meeting also has Song Yingxing and Sun Yuanhua to participate, mainly to coordinate the cooperation between the Inner Government and the Dadu Governor's Office." Zhu Youxiao talked eloquently and poured out all his thoughts.
"The Navy's plan for this year is to build a port, and at the same time, gradually occupy the territory occupied by Zheng Zhilong and Yan Siqi before, and carry out a sea patrol plan.
"Yes, Your Majesty." Qi Jin responded.
"And, this island." Colonel Zhu You's baton fell on the island of Taiwan, "General Shen Yourong will occupy it as soon as possible and establish a naval base over there, and the training of the two groups of pirates can be placed there." Then there are the Ryukyus, Busan in North Korea, and the islands and bays in Liaodong that are suitable for military ports. β
Zhu Youxiao's baton crossed all the way, point by point, and gradually practiced into a line, "Here, is the empire's coastal defense line, is the empire's maritime Great Wall, from now on, we must devote all our energy and build it carefully." β
"General Bi."
"Minister...... The end will be. Bi Maokang stood up and replied, it was clear that he was still a little unable to adapt to a career in the army.
"Song Aiqing."
"The minister is here."
Another person was named by Zhu Youxiao.
"Cement technology, I remember that it was just auctioned off some ordinary models, and some strengthened military cement, this time the Ministry of Heavy Industry is fully producing, and the Equipment Department is responsible for the construction of ports in various places, so as to ensure that the defense is solid."
"Yes." The two of them took orders together.
"General Shen." Zhu Youxiao turned to Shen Yourong again.
"The end will be."
"I remember to cooperate with the cabinet to immigrate to this island, that is, Taiwan. You don't have to take care of the civil affairs side, the civilian officials of the cabinet, and you are responsible for the security of the local area, whether it is at sea or on land. β
"The last will obey." Shen Yourong responded.
"Good." Zhu Youxiao nodded, and then looked at the next one, "General Qin." β
"The end will be." Qin Liangyu got up.
"The Jingshi City Defense Army is different from others, we must do a good job in training, now that the field army has all been reequipped, and then the muskets, artillery and iron armor will gradually tilt towards the city defense army, I hope General Qin must adjust the training and recruitment work."
"The last will obey."
"Sun Aiqing should also be careful in this regard, and now there is no problem with the production of muskets and artillery." Zhu Youxiao asked again.
"There is no problem, now the monthly output of muskets is 20,000 and 100 cannons, which is enough to supply." Sun Yuanhua skillfully reported the production capacity.
"It's not bad, but don't fall behind in the research and development of rifled guns and rifles, just take out the test products and then improve the process." Zhu Youxiao nodded.
Nowadays, Daming's smoothbore gun has been quite advanced, simple forging process, powerful firepower and range, basically nothing has changed, the next step in the development of musket is to the rifle, mini bullet, rear loading development. In the meantime, the combat mode of the entire Ming army will change accordingly.
"Your Majesty, the rifling now has some eyebrows, and it can be carved out, but it is a serious waste and low efficiency." Sun Yuanhua reported.
"This is not in a hurry for the time being, but we must make good technical reserves, and we must be able to take it out when we want to use it." For rifled guns, Zhu Youxiao is not in a hurry, anyway, the smoothbore guns are enough in the east for the time being, and the formation is simple and densely packed, which is just right for the Ming army that has just begun to firearms.
After some cumbersome orders, Zhu Youxiao explained his ideas to the two sides clearly, the two industrial departments were responsible for the production of military materials, and the equipment department was responsible for the construction and use.
With these instructions clear, Zhu Youxiao entered the topic. "What do you think about sending troops to Mongolia?"
The scene fell silent for a while, no one took the lead to speak, and the two servants of the inner government felt that they were not suitable to speak in this kind of military affairs, while San Li felt that he was still a junior and was not suitable to speak in advance.
Looking around, Zhu Youxiao smiled and said, "No one speaks, forget it, I'll take a roll call, Governor, you can talk about it." β
Sun Chengzong, who was named, had already made this kind of preparation, and he was not ambiguous, and said directly, "Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that the troops should be sent as soon as possible. β
"Oh, why?" Zhu Youxiao was very surprised by this proposal, he thought that Sun Chengzong would seek stability and put forward the proposal of sending troops after spring ploughing.
"This is the message from the Department of Military Intelligence last night." Sun Chengzong took out an official document and handed it over. The Military Intelligence Department is a military intelligence agency under the General Staff Department, specializing in military intelligence.
Zhu Youxiao took it and looked at it, his face was quite surprised, "Mongolia's losses are so big. β
"Let's take a look." Zhu Youzhen passed down the official documents.
The above is very simple, that is, in Zhang Shize's constant harassment, Mongolia has suffered losses this year. Itself, the cattle and sheep of Lin Dan Khan who moved westward suffered a lot of losses, and after arriving in Guihua City, they also needed the help of local tribes. The economic pressure is considerable. This is also the reason why he invaded around the end of the year despite the wind and snow.
Looting winter supplies.
It's just a pity that all this was mixed up by Zhang Shize. Although Zhang Shize's cavalry army is still a newly established army, its combat effectiveness is not weak, and it is no problem to deal with Mongolia, which has been transferred to all the green forms.
After Lin Dan Khan returned, they played guerrilla warfare, not fighting hard with Lin Dan Khan, but only taking the time to attack one or two. But this is the case, which also made Lin Dan Khan suffer heavy losses, and a large number of herdsmen were harassed and could not survive the winter, freezing to death and starving to death, I don't know how many of them.
Although the army under Lin Dan Khan did not lose much, the tragic death of their relatives made their morale low, and there were complaints in the army.
"Your Majesty, this is a great time to send troops." After everyone finished reading, Sun Chengzong said loudly, "The grain and rice of the Fanbang tribute just make up for the time for the logistics department to transfer grain and grass, and now only His Majesty's army needs to assemble and start from Zhangjiakou, there is no problem at all." β
This remark made Zhu Youxiao very moved, and he still trusted Sun Chengzong's strategic judgment very much. When it comes to military command, he may not be as good as the rising star who is gradually growing up now, but his judgment of the situation and the accuracy of his vision are still above Zhu Youxiao.
He himself relied on historical foresight to calculate, just like blocking the Jurchen Eight Banners in the Liaoxi Corridor, but the conquest of Mongolia was not in history, so he was also at a loss as to when to send troops. It just feels like it should be after farming.
"Your Majesty, now that the logistics department is running well, there is already a complete convoy under its command, and there is no need to use a large number of people, so when to send troops will not affect the farming, and the grain station in the north will be roughly established when the old minister rectifies the guard, and after Your Majesty leads the troops out of the fortress, you can get supplies from the side wall at any time, and it is foolproof." Seeing that the emperor was a little moved, Sun Chengzong hurriedly persuaded him.
"Has the northern grain station system been built?" This is a news that surprised Zhu Youxiao, he set up the four headquarters to professionalize, but there has been no manpower, and it has not been implemented for the time being, but he didn't expect Sun Chengzong to start it first.
"Yes, Your Majesty, Mongolia is a problem for the henchmen of the Ming Dynasty, and its harm is still on the sea, and it is difficult to eradicate the Ming Dynasty day and night, so when the old minister went all the way west, he did it by the way."
"Okay, worthy of being my humerus." Zhu Youxiao praised loudly, and now, all his worries are gone.
This is the benefit of professional soldiers, as long as the logistics and weather can support, they can send troops at any time, without having to consider what delays the agricultural time, affecting the agricultural harvest and so on, with such a system, the military of the Ming Dynasty is much more flexible, less weak, more advantages.
"Command!" Zhu Youxiao said loudly.
With a bang, everyone stood upright, and the chairs were knocked open with a creaking sound.
"Sun Chengzong!" Zhu Youxuan shouted.
"Courtier."
"Stay in Beijing and preside over military affairs."
"Obey."
"Li Yuyu, Li Tao, Li Tu!" Three of the same surnames in a row made others feel quite subtle.
"The end will be." The three of them responded in unison.
"Straighten out the three armies and go out with me."
"The last will obey."
"Qi Jin!"
"The last general!"
β¦β¦
Subsequently, a series of orders were issued from Zhu Youxiao's mouth, equipment supply, logistics supply, military intelligence espionage, order transmission, and the entire metropolitan governor's office system was fully operational, preparing for war.
Soon, with the actions of the Dadu Governor's Mansion, after the New Year, many people in Beijing found that the materials were suddenly in short supply, or in other words, the demand was much greater, and there was a big shortage of salt, cloth, and even labor. It's just that this time it is true that most of the actions of the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion can't be detected by many people.
This is all thanks to Zhu Youxiao's request, after he established the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, this time he emphasized the importance of secrecy, and under the General Training Department, there is a military police department, which is to investigate these, because of the leak, several typical examples have been arrested, and they are all generals who followed him out of the East Palace.
Under such strict requirements, the army of the Ming Dynasty is finally no longer a sieve.
