Chapter 310: The Pledge of the Suburbs of Beijing
In the camp of the Beijing Division, Zhu Xieyuan has arrived for many days.
In addition to communicating with the generals and commanders to deepen their understanding, they also ran at both ends of the battalion and the military headquarters to discuss the battle strategy with the officials of the military department in advance.
Different from the disagreement between Xiong Tingbi and the military department at that time, the military department under the leadership of Cui Chengxiu has been selected as Fuyuwei because of the basic battlefield.
All that remained was to discuss how to enter the army and where to place the post.
Fuyu Wei, one of the three guards of Ming Wuliangha, was named because of the cowardice of thousands of households in Gray Yier and other places, and was placed in the 22nd year of Hongwu, and belonged to the Daning Division.
At the beginning of the territory of Fuyuwei, it was in the lower reaches of the Nenjiang River in present-day Heilongjiang Province, and after Xuande and Orthodoxy, it moved south to Liaoyang, Shenyang, Tieling, Kaiyuan and other cities and counties in Liaoning Province.
In the later period of Jiajing, due to the contraction and inaction of the imperial court in border affairs, the Tatar power grew stronger and stronger, and continued to invade the south, and forcibly annexed the weaker Duoyan and Taining departments in the Wuliangha Sanwei through war.
Due to the relatively strong power of the Fuyu tribe, they were spared from this disaster, and the Yan people have been present to this day.
Historically, in this war, the Fuyu Department was defeated by the five-part coalition army led by the Horqin Department, and the troops were scattered, and all the territories under their jurisdiction belonged to Horqin.
Its leader, Zai Sai, also fled with his wife to the grassland, nowhere to be found.
Under the guidance of Hou Jin, the Horqin Department annexed the Fuyu Department through the war and became the largest part of Mobei, threatening the status of the Khan of the Chahar Department in Southern Mongolia.
Since then, the Ming Dynasty has completely retreated back to the border affairs, except for a small number of Monan Mongols who are loyal to the Chahar department, most of the remaining Mongolian tribes are vying to attach to the Houjin.
As a consequence of this battle, the Guangning and Songjin fronts were directly threatened by the Mongol and Later Jin forces, forcing the Ming Dynasty to adopt Yuan Chonghuan's strategy.
That is, to expand the Liao army of 120,000, build the border forts along the Songjin line, and take out countless silver taels every year to establish a loose and broken Songjin defense line.
Although the Songjin defense line can withstand the front of the Houjin front, it cannot suppress the Mongols, and if it goes to that point, it will be a situation where the east wall is demolished to make up for the west wall.
I have to say that if it weren't for Zhu Youxiao's desperate efforts to stop this move, according to history, the impact would still be very significant.
Cui Chengxiu, the secretary of the military department, pressed the map and said:
"The headquarters has issued a document, the Liaoshen armies, after the war, will follow Xiong Tingbi's command, and the military department will never interfere in the slightest."
He sneered:
"Xiong Tingbi has always had his wishful thinking, and Wang Huazhen's incident is the best example.
In fact, he also has his own ideas when he does this.
Xiong Tingbi is deeply trusted by the emperor, and this product is a straight intestine, and the previous secretary of the military department, Zhang Heming, was scolded by him to know how miserable he was.
Choi Chengxiu didn't want to provoke a powder keg that would explode at the slightest touch...
Let Xiong Tingbi deal with the matter over there by himself, the news of the military department in the words is inconvenient, and the remote command will delay the battle situation, which is certainly a reason.
But Cui Chengxiu is not a righteous gentleman, for him, the greater credit this time is in Fuyuwei, but not Liaoshen.
For Liaoshen, he also did this to give Xiong Tingbi power, not to compete with him, and not to participate in the success or failure of Liaoyang and Shenyang.
According to his estimates, the 30,000 defenders of Shenyang were surrounded by more than 100,000 Jiannu, and no matter how brave and good Man Gui was, there was a high probability that he would not be able to hold it.
This sin can naturally be pushed out.
Anyway, when the time comes, he will only be in charge of the Fuyuwei war, and the Liaoshen war was fought by Xiong Tingbi himself, and the military department has no constraints at all, whether it is success or failure, it has nothing to do with him.
What's more, by doing so, it can also give the emperor the illusion that he trusts Xiong Tingbi, so why not do it in one fell swoop?
Cui Chengxiu said, looked at the officials of the Ministry of War, saw that they had no objections, his heart settled down a little, got up and paced around the sand table, and said in a deep voice:
"This time, it is beneficial to learn from the shortcomings of the battle of Salhu three years ago."
"Guangning should not be moved lightly, and sent an official document from the Ministry of War, asking Yuan Chonghuan to lead 20,000 soldiers and horses from Ningyuan to camp outside Jinzhou City, and obey the orders of the Ministry of War at any time, go north to south, and stay for maneuvering."
In the eyes of everyone in the Ministry of War, there is indeed nothing wrong with letting Yuan Chonghuan be a mobile team.
After all, Yuan Chonghuan is the person highly recommended by Sun Chengzong, this kind of large-scale war, not letting him go out and show up to pick up a leak, this is too bad for the dignified emperor.
Choi Chengxiu set his eyes on North Korea and pondered for a while before saying:
"The headquarters wants to levy 20,000 North Koreans, contain them in several ways, attack all the way, and finish the work within about a year, so as to achieve complete success!"
"What do you think?"
Cui Chengxiu looked around at everyone, especially at Zhu Xieyuan.
This idea was also practiced during the Battle of Sarhu, and it was put into practice at that time, and it turned out that the combat effectiveness of the Korean army was really not flattering.
In the first battle of Salhu, the Korean army was mixed into the imperial army, originally because they wanted them to make up the numbers and overwhelm the other party in numbers.
But when the Korean army came, instead of playing a positive role, it was the first to flee in battle, and it ran faster than any part of the Ming army.
The Ming army thought that the front line was defeated, and ran together, and before the army could fight much, the military spirit was lost, and the Jurchens chased them all the way back to Guannei.
So Choi Chengxiu proposed to let North Korea assist this time, and he was quickly opposed.
The opinions of the ministers of the Ministry of War are similar, it is better not to come to the DPRK, don't let these goods come over and cause trouble for us, as long as they don't drag the Ming Dynasty back, they are better than anything else!
Choi Chengxiu wants to cry without tears, Yang Ho's idiotic mistake, can he make it again?
He explained that this time he asked the emperor to simply send an edict to North Korea, asking them to fully cooperate with the Dongjiang Army's ass stealing operation and not let them send troops to mix.
This edict was not issued, and Mao Wenlong did not have the authority to mobilize the North Korean army and let the DPRK take over the Dongjiang Army, to put it bluntly, the road to the south was the Dongjiang Army, not North Korea.
Of course, Choi Chengxiu is not afraid that North Korea will not move the pit.
Although the appeal of the Ming Dynasty after the Salhu War was significantly weakened, the emaciated camel was bigger than the horse, and the North Korean side was still honest and peaceful, and basically did not obey the edict.
Even if they didn't obey the edict, Cui Chengxiu didn't have anything to worry about, and he didn't expect them to help in the first place.
As long as the victory is won this time, North Korea will have to use double the compensation to please the Ming Dynasty, and it depends on how the Emperor of the Apocalypse wants to ask for the price.
As soon as Cui Chengxiu said this, the officials of the Ministry of War and Zhu Xieyuan suddenly realized, and they all said that Cui Butang was thoughtful, and then patted him with a sycophant.
Although Cui Chengxiu knew in his heart that he believed them as ghosts, he still responded beautifully, just like when Zhu Youxiao heard these words.
Who doesn't like to listen to flattering words? If you can talk about it, say more!
Soon, the relevant tactics of the military department were fully implemented.
Yuan Chonghuan's Ning Yuan Army was stationed in Jinzhou, as a mobile force, and it was ready to support at any time, naturally, this was for Sun Chengzong's sake.
In addition, the edict ordered the Chahar Division, the Mongol Departments of Monan and Korea, and the North and South to respond to the Fuyu Army and the Dongjiang Army to contain the Horqin Five Coalition Army and the Houjin Army.
As for the 160,000 troops that Zhu Xieyuan had already reported in the camp on the outskirts of Beijing, the military headquarters would soon issue a document to ask for capture, which would be announced to the world after Zhu Youxiao's ruling.
Jiannu claimed to be 120,000, and Daming directly claimed to be 250,000 troops this time, saying that it was a gathering of military horses from the Jiubian military town and the towns of Jifu.
Of course, the real situation is that only six of the nine sides came, and the towns of Kifu were not all emptied, and a large article was sprinkled on the text, except for the war, no other words were true.
Either it's a mess, saying how my Ming Dynasty went down to earth to destroy Jiannu, how stupid Jiannu is, I definitely can't beat my Daming, Yunyun and so on.
The boss also said that this time the army would go straight to Yizhou through the Ningjin Road, and then transfer to Liaoyang to aid Shenyang.
This is a very straightforward trick, used to deceive Jiannu, they believe it best, even if they are recognized, they have to save the rest of the Fu.
It can be seen from Lin Dan Batur's treacherous actions that now around Daming, there are many two dogs like Zai Sai who want to follow Daming and Jiannu even if the tribe is scattered.
When the time comes, Houjin's side will have to weigh the two news released by the Ming Kingdom, which of the two news released by the Ming Kingdom is true, whether to stay in Shenyang and continue the feint, or transfer to Fuyuwei to support the Horqin Fifth Division.
Soon, on the third day of the second month of the first year of the Apocalypse, in the long-brewing revenge craze across the country, the day of the swearing-in expedition finally arrived.
On this day, Zhu Xieyuan was dressed in the fish-scale armor given by the Emperor of the Apocalypse, with the Shang Fang sword at his waist, standing on a high platform.
He looked at the dense, endless army, and his heart was surging.
The next moment, he drew his saber, pointed to the east, and shouted:
"The three armies obey the order and go to the battle!"
"Wan Sheng! Wansheng!! ”
The 160,000 soldiers of the Ming Army raised their swords and guns, and the sound of the resounding in the sky reached the homes of every household in Beijing, and they walked towards the distant battlefield with indomitable steps.
At this time, Fu Yuwei is engaged in an unprecedentedly fierce battle!
