Chapter Ninety-One: Changing Fists to the Army (Part II)
87_87379 "Master, we don't know how to fight!" Can this be done? β
In Gui Shun's opinion, it is easy to form an army, but it is not easy to ask for the military power of Jinmen from the old woman. Gui Shun didn't know anything about leading troops to fight, let alone marching, even all kinds of swords and guns, but he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to recognize everything, and in Gui Shun's opinion, he was afraid that he couldn't do it.
"Can it be done? Cao Futian and Zhang Decheng can wear yellow coats and lead soldiers to fight, why don't you become it?
Go! Want! If you don't give it to us, you won't move! Sue sΓΉ old woman, we have 100,000 Zhenwei troops, but we can't defeat tens of thousands of foreign devils? If we want to use you, the military affairs of Jinmen must be controlled by your Lord Guibeile, otherwise our grandfather will not serve that old woman!
Besides, what the old woman wants is that you don't know how to fight, if you are a clear man, the old woman really doesn't dare to use you! With more than 100,000 horses, plus the right to control the military affairs of Jinmen, if you want to kill her too easily, you will fight, and give you 100,000 horses, isn't the old woman unhappy?
Also, when you tell the old woman about this, you have to take Gui Fujin with you, the big girl stays with the old woman, and you take Fujin to fight in Jinmen, which is also a fierce spirit that disregards the life of your family!
Go ahead! Nine out of ten percent of this can be done! β
The old ladies do things without caring about the front and back, and taking care of the head, now the largest mobile force near the left side of the Beijing division is in the hands of Gui Shun, no matter how Gui Shun says it, it is also a clan, no matter how you say it, it is also a relative of the emperor, is it not as high as a Zhili governor Yulu? Trustworthy?
Rest assured that your family can use it, this day and night Gui Shun plundered the family property in the inner and outer cities is a vote of fame, just imagine who in this huge Sijiu City does not want the capital to fall the most? There is no one else except Gui Shun, a big landlord and a big landlord, and his net worth and life are all in Sijiu City!
In addition to real estate, Gui Shun also has a letter of nomination from the old lady, which is the eldest girl of his family, don't underestimate this girl, that is the only descendant of Gui Shun, and she is held with the old lady to ensure the safety of the girl, which means that the marriage of his Gui Shun family is assigned by the old lady, which is climbing family affection!
Gui Shun has these conditions, the old ladies don't need him anymore, it's a little chilling, especially the flag people, the old ladies have done this, can Rong Lu, the commander of the army, be able to see the oil and water? That's why Li Dacheng said that Gui Shun's errand can be completed nine out of nine.
Gui Shun entered the palace to ask for an errand, and this matter was basically done, but in this part of the capital, Li Dacheng didn't want to let go lightly, and fought with cold weapons, and the next war was doomed to fail, and no matter how hard he tried, Jinmen couldn't hold it.
Fleeing to Shandong by the way is the best way, but the capital is about to be destroyed, this matter is also two things to say here in Li Dacheng, whether the capital is miserable or not has little to do with him, but the remnants of the Jinmen army has something to do with him, there are too many people must not be taken to Shandong, and there is the direction of the retreat of the people of Jinmen, it should still be based on the capital, and whether it can get out of the Jinmen battlefield is still a matter of two words.
Here in the capital, Li Dacheng has to keep some backhand, Qian Laoba can't stay, and he can't do anything if he stays, Li Dahan and Li Dagou are Li Dacheng's right-hand men, and they must be with them during the war, otherwise he will have nowhere to go.
Wang Wu and Qi Shiduo can't stay all the way, and the only one who can stay and take on some responsibilities is Xu Jiutong who controls Chaihuo City in the capital, and there are still some changes in this guy, and it should be enough to keep it.
"Qian Laoba, you instructed the Ghost Head Knife to select five hundred people, to choose the most elite, leave five hundred Winchesters, and then let the wine barrel come, and by the way, call Dahan and Da Dog."
With an idea in his heart, Li Dacheng began to give orders here, Xu Jiutong has too few people in his hands, and if he wants to suppress the pool of water in Beijing, it is not enough to have five thousand people to go up, more than 1,000 strong men in Xu Jiutong's hands, five hundred elites of the ghost head knife, and then transfer two thousand strong men from Li Dahan and Li Dagou's hands, and let Xu Jiutong take over the stubble near the capital and punch, this back road should be enough, Li Chengyou and Cao Laoer's men and horses on the Tonghui River can also support Xu Jiutong, so that the combination of water and land should also be enough.
Li Dacheng's own ghost head knife, Li Dahan, Li Dagou's Shandong brothers, Xu Jiutong can't be pulled away, plus Gui Shun's upcoming power and the number of Zhenwei Army, it is more than enough to control Xu Jiutong.
According to this line of thought, Li Dacheng left most of the guns of Shenzhou's first punch to Xu Jiutong, and Wang Wu's disciples also left more than ten people, so that Xu Jiutong could train the army while watching the financial road of the Jingshi.
The war on the side of Jinmen, Li Dacheng estimates that it will take at least one or two months, one or two months, enough for Xu Jiutong's team to form a certain combat effectiveness, it may not be possible to fight a field battle, but it should be possible to fight a street battle, there are not many other boundaries in the capital, there are many city walls, with a strong city wall, fight a street battle of tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of people in the capital, such a flesh and blood slaughterhouse, I am afraid that the devils of the seas will not devote all their strength to it, as long as Gui Shun can keep the capital without losing it is a great achievement, after such a war, Both Chinese and foreign countries must remember his name as Gui Shun Gui Bei Le.
Taking the opportunity of dispatching manpower, Li Dacheng also learned about the number of people in the first punch in Shenzhou now, excluding the more than 6,000 people allocated to Xu Jiutong, there are more than 64,000 people in the first punch in Shenzhou, Li Dagou has more than 20,000 strong men in his hands, Li Dahan has more than 10,000 strong men in his hands, and the 2,000 people on Wang Wu and Qi Shiduo's side have also expanded to more than 8,000 strong men in the chaotic battle, except for these 40,000 people, the remaining more than 20,000 people are old and weak, plus Li Dacheng's old Cao Yong who was arranged in Jinmen before, this team alone has more than 80,000 people.
The Eight Banners disciples on Gui Shun's side were a little messy, and Li Dacheng learned from his mouth that there were quite a few people over there Anyway, the number of four, five, sixty or seventy thousand, although the number of Gui Shun's troops is uncertain, but the composition of the personnel is amazing!
The Shenji Battalion, the Infantry Battalion, the Forward Battalion, the Xiaocai Battalion, and the Jianrui Battalion, at least one-fifth of the in-service officers and soldiers have joined the first punch of Shenzhou in the inner city, and the in-service officers and soldiers of more than 10,000 people cannot be ignored!
The retired veterans of the Eight Banners Jingying almost joined the first punch of Shenzhou in the inner city, not for anything else, and the number of these people is also one or two thousand, but these people are soldiers, and now they only take food and do nothing.
Compared with the people of the first punch in Shenzhou, this group of in-service or idle regular troops may not be as good as in combat effectiveness, but military training and military literacy, these people still have some, if they can force out the Eight Banners soldiers, they still have a certain combat effectiveness, but seventy or eighty percent of the people in this team smoke a lot, this is a troublesome matter, and if they want to join Li Dacheng, they have to do a tobacco business.
Thinking of this, Li Dacheng remembered one thing he had overlooked, robbing tobacco dealers, he had been busy looting and ignoring them in the past two days, and it happened that the Zhenwei Army was going to form an army, and he wanted these Eight Banners soldiers to join the gang, tobacco and soil were necessities, and while the capital was still in chaos, rob his mother!
After handing over this errand to Wang Wu and other local snakes in the four or nine cities, Li Dacheng sat and waited for news from Gui Shun's side, it is not difficult for the Zhenwei army to become an army, but weapons are also a problem, Li Dacheng asked Gui Shun to control the power of Jinmen, in order to have the Xigu arsenal and the Wutang arsenal and a Tianjin machine qì bureau, with these, the firearms of 20,000 or 30,000 people should still be guaranteed.
It would be great if he could scavenge the various arsenals in the capital before leaving Beijing, and the first fist of Shenzhou now has a gap in knives and guns, with half of the people using big knives and spears, and most of them holding flat poles and hoes.
The warehousing system of the Manchu court is also a bit nonsense, coupled with the corrupt officials, the account books are empty, but the warehouse is full of military funds that have been accumulated for more than ten years or decades. It takes several times to beat a dog with a flat pole and a hoe, and it may not be able to be killed, even if it is equipped with a kitchen knife, it is better than a hoe, right?
"Master, the old woman is approved, let us form an army on the same day, and go to Jinmen within half a month!"
Gui Shun came and went very quickly this time, it only took a little more than an hour, it seems that the old ladies in the Forbidden City are really in a hurry, and they are in a hurry to go to the doctor!
"Half a moon is too long! Tomorrow into the army, after one to two days to pull, let's go to the canal, the earliest two days of the Zhenwei army forward into the Tianjin Gate, the latest five days, the Zhenwei Army 100,000 people in the Tianjin Gate!
How is this number decided? Zhenwei Army or Eight Banners Zhenwei Army? β
Five days is already a long time, Li Dacheng has an old Cao Yong in Jinmen, according to the speed of the waterway, the news will be transmitted back tomorrow afternoon, the court got the news, it should be the day after tomorrow, and it is not a lie that the Zhenwei army will enter Jinmen within two or three days.
The problem of the number is a key, Zhenwei Army and Eight Banners Zhenwei Army, although there is only two words missing, but it represents the attitude of the old ladies, just Zhenwei Army, Li Dacheng is not good to let Gui Shun enter the palace to put forward conditions, if it is the Eight Banners Zhenwei Army, the Eight Banners disciples in the city, he will also take away more than half, who let this be the Manchu court! There is no reason for the dead to die and the Eight Banners!
"It's the Eight Banners Zhenwei Army!"
"Good! If you go to the palace again, tell the old woman about our conditions, we still have to ask for weapons, and all the people and horses in the Beijing camp have arsenals, and these will be given to us.
Later, I will let 30,000 people go to Chaoyangmen to camp, you can let the old woman send someone to see the speed of our Eight Banners Zhenwei Army, with weapons, uniforms, and flags, these 30,000 people can be pulled by land tomorrow morning!
Also, let your people spread the news in the inner city, anyone who joins the Eight Banners Zhenwei Army, one tael of silver a day and half a month, and five taels when you arrive at Jinmen!
If you can get a military salary from the old woman, it is the best! β
The price of one or two silver a day, Li Dacheng has the heart to open higher, but he is afraid that others will not believe it! It's just that these hundreds of thousands of people went to Jinmen and could come back alive only tens of thousands, and the silver was sent down and then collected, and then some were snatched from the treasury of Jinmen and the Boxers, and more than 100,000 or 200,000 taels of silver, where could they not come out?
In short, money is not a thing!
"Master? A tael of silver a day, what are you doing here? How can we have so much silver? β
"Five taels per person, according to the current number of people, it is only five or six hundred thousand taels of silver, is there any silver in the treasury of Jinmen? Besides, whether these people can come back or not is a matter of words!
It's dead, let's pick up the silver and have to take it over as a military salary, you go again this time, the main thing is to ask for weapons, and it doesn't matter if you can give the food!
The banner of the Zhenwei Army, you let the women on the flag man's side do it, let's exchange it for food, the number of clothes is not enough to draw a circle with ink on the clothes can also be used as the number of clothes, this time go to the inner city, spread the news first, and then enter the palace after about an hour, otherwise the manpower on my side is not well prepared! β
"Master, you are still tall, in this way, most of the banner people in the inner and outer cities will join the army, which is 100,000 people smaller, isn't our military merit proper?"
In Gui Shun's eyes, fighting a war is still a matter of many people and few people, one or two silver a day, I'm afraid those old ladies also want to join the army, right?
"It's best to let them wait outside the Chaoyang Gate!"
Looking at Gui Shun's jubilant appearance, Li Dacheng's eyes narrowed, I am afraid that this product has not passed through the real battlefield, and when the time comes, I see the scene of the mountain of corpses and the sea of blood, I don't know if this product can still jump?
"I'll do it right away!"
I don't know which nerve Gui Shun was touched, and he didn't shout that he was tired, so he went on an errand.
Li Dacheng's men and horses are the fastest to move, but now it's just the past, Li Dahan's men and horses are just right, and the Caoyun Wharf still needs Li Dagou's guard, so that Li Dahan's people can camp outside the city with food, and it's easy to manage, isn't it?
