Chapter 341: Fu Zhubu in the west, and Korea in the south
The early spring season is a season of rejuvenation.
The grassland in the territory of Tainingwei is full of cattle and sheep, melons and fruits are fragrant, the herdsmen of the Mongolian tribes have a smile on their faces, and the busy figures appear and disappear from time to time under the white clouds and blue sky, and there is a peaceful and peaceful scene everywhere.
However, on the bank of the old river, the Ming army's strict camp tents added a palpitating atmosphere to this scene.
Many people don't know that a war of great scale is approaching them step by step.
"Newspaper..."
"Qiyu Supervisor, the enemy camp in Taizhou is dense, the battle flags are numerous, and the Taining and Mongolian tribes are gathered together, as if they are facing a great enemy!"
Taizhou is the central hinterland of Tainingwei, the only way for the army to support Fuyuwei, and the attitude of Tainingwei Mongolia determines whether it can go north smoothly.
In the hall, Zhu Xieyuan listened to the report, waved his hand, and then smiled and looked at Yi'er Deng, the Mongolian lord of Taining Wei, who was a little cramped.
Erdeng tried his best to prove himself, saying:
“… The superintendent is above, and when all the people in our department heard that the soldiers of the Celestial Empire were coming, they were all panicked and gathered together, which was also for self-protection. ”
After he finished speaking, Zhu Xieyuan smiled slightly, waved his hand, and said:
"There is no need to explain, Ben Du is not an unreasonable person, and he naturally understands what the consequences will be once the five alliances are allowed to fight in Taining."
Hearing this, Yi'er Deng was a little relieved, but he didn't understand what the overseer was thinking.
With the bitterness of the battle of Salhu, this time the supervisor should be a person with real talent, seeing that the marshals of the seven towns are all obeyed by him, it should be unusual.
Zhu Xieyuan had already understood before he came, and the Mongolian lord of Tainingwei, Yier Deng, had also done things that violated yang and yin in the past.
After the Battle of Sarhu, the worship of the imperial court was obviously not as good as before, but it was only taken by Magui Yuwei that he did not follow Nurhachi to rebel.
He clearly understood that Erdeng was a wall-to-wall grass.
However, the main purpose of the army is to rush to the aid of Fuyuwei and solve the battle of Fuyuwei by surprise.
When this battle is won, we will talk about other things.
"You don't have to be nervous, the army is going, the people of Jianzhou are still in the dark, even if you know it now, it's too late, I estimate that it will be a while and a half, and Fuyuwei will not fall."
Zhu Xieyuan said, looking at Yi'er Deng.
Seeing the latter's face flickering, he knew that the strength of this attraction was still not enough, and after thinking about it, he continued: "Yi'er Deng, your department is the hereditary commander of my Ming Dynasty's Taining Guard, and there is no merit and hard work. ”
"In this battle, the Duoyan tribes have been annexed, and the governor still has to rely on Fu Yuwei......"
Yi'er Deng was a little surprised.
The Duoyan tribes have been attached to the Ming Dynasty, why don't you know?
If the Duoyan tribes are attached to the Ming Dynasty, they must no longer act rashly, and the power of the Duoyan tribes is far stronger than the Taining tribes.
"The Governor now has a matter to be entrusted to the commander, and when this battle is over, the Governor will ask the Holy Lord for the merits of the Taining Tribes."
"Please command, the Taining tribes will do their best!"
Yi'er Deng hurriedly bowed his head and agreed quickly.
"Fu Yuwei fights, do you know the thoughts of His Majesty today?"
Zhu Xieyuan looked at Yi'er Deng, and saw that he was kneeling on the ground and couldn't see his expression clearly, so he said to himself:
"The people of Jianzhou have been deceived for a long time, the battle of Salhu, our army was too careless to underestimate the enemy, this time the elite 200,000 troops of Jiubian and Jifu were summoned out of the pass, not only to support Fuyuwei, but also to recover Liaodong."
"Have you heard of Your Majesty's personal expedition to the southwest, that battle, nearly one million rebel troops in the southwest, all of which were pacified by our dynasty, and now the army is triumphant, and Jiannu will be defeated day and night."
"This time, it's your chance to perform Tai Ningwei."
Yi'er Deng had indeed heard of the great victory in the southwest, thanks to the effective propaganda of the factory guards and the "Beijing Daily" at that time, and he hurriedly kowtowed:
"The superintendent is above, and Yi'er Deng's loyalty to His Majesty can be seen by the sun and the moon!"
"Okay, bring it up!"
Zhu Xieyuan nodded with satisfaction and waved his hand.
Soon, several soldiers brought up several large wooden boxes, opened them and saw that they were all bright silver, Yi'er Deng was stunned, and stammered:
"This... The Overseer is going to..."
"These are all rewarded by the court."
Zhu Xieyuan leaned back in the seat, looked at him and said:
"This governor orders you to gather the troops of the Taining tribes and attack the four stations of the Inner Khalkha Tribe, and as for the Duoyan Departments in front, there are other arrangements."
Yi'er Deng didn't dare to be disgusted, bowed down and said:
"Yi'er Deng is willing to use this battle to prove the loyalty of the Taining tribes to His Majesty and the surrender to the Celestial Empire, the superintendent can rest assured!"
With these 200,000 taels of silver, even if Yi'er Deng wanted to betray the alliance, his subordinates would be war-weary and buy time for themselves.
Some money has to be spent.
This battle has a far-reaching impact, and it is not hesitant to spend some money, as long as it can be won, the 200,000 taels will be worth it.
When Yi'er Deng went down, Wang Wei, the chief soldier of Jizhou, spoke, and said angrily in an urn on the side:
"Overseer, the last general will not believe him!"
Jiang Bi, the chief soldier of Yulin, also said:
"Yes, Ma Shuai should be the most familiar with his situation."
After speaking, he looked at Ma Chengzhi.
The latter bowed his head and stood up and said:
"Inspector, Yi'er Deng is not trustworthy!"
"The last general found out that he has been in contact with Nurhachi and Lindan Batur, and his subordinates often do illegal things, and friction with the last general's subordinates in the border trade."
"This time, I convened the people in Taizhou in advance, maybe I didn't have any good intentions!"
Zhu Xieyuan looked at the chatter of the generals below, and also sighed and said: "This governor doesn't believe in this Yi'er Deng either, but now there is no other way but to stabilize him." ”
"Wang Wei."
"The last general!"
"You quickly send people to the Duoyan Tribes, bring 300,000 taels of silver to appease, and tell them to attack the Horqin garrison."
"As long as one person goes, it will be good for our army."
Wang Wei nodded and went down to make arrangements.
After he left, Zhu Xieyuan looked at Jiang Bi and the others and said:
"The whole army marched forward, so that the soldiers cheered up, passed under the city of Taizhou, and went straight to Duoyan, and also called the Mongols in Taining to see the heroic appearance of the soldiers of the Celestial Empire!"
Everyone looked at each other and complied.
Zhu Xieyuan knew that this time the imperial court was almost desperate to save Fuyuwei, and could only appease the Duoyan and Taining tribes along the way.
If you fight all the way, not to mention the consumption of troops on the way, your whereabouts will be exposed early.
......
On Zhu Xieyuan's side, when he hurried to Fuyuwei, the area around Liaoyang was also covered with war clouds, and Xiong Tingbi raised his tent to summon the generals to discuss.
With a map hanging behind him, he stood on the stage, got up and said:
"Can't wait."
"Instead of waiting for news from Fu Yuwei, it's better to take the initiative!"
As soon as he finished saying this, Xue Laiyin and the others were all in high spirits and looked up.
"The last general will obey the order of the scripture!"
Xiong Tingbi stared at everyone, clenched Shang Fang's sword in one hand, and said in a deep voice:
"Spread the military order of the headquarters, and ordered Mao Wenlong, the chief soldier of Zhenjiang, to attack Liaodong in the north, not to go deep alone, and to plunder."
"This kind of thing should be very good at the Dongjiang Army, and the headquarters doesn't need to say much."
"Life, Man Gui can't keep it."
"Send a letter to Kim Kyung-seo, Marshal of Uiju in northern Korea, asking him to cooperate with our war and lead the Korean troops out of Uiju to attack the three forts of Kwandian."
"If Jin Jingrui doesn't comply, tell him that all the consequences of not obeying the orders of the Ming Dynasty will be borne by the monarchs and ministers of the Korean State!"
Xiong Tingbi paced back and forth on it, pondered for a long time, and soon said:
"Send a letter to the left-behind lords of the four departments of Horqin and Inner Khalkha, and tell them that if they are in battle anyway and belong to the Ming Dynasty, they will not be blamed for the past, and they can avoid death."
"They can also receive their own headquarters and pay tribute to trade!"
Immediately afterwards, he added: "The matter is urgent, the military order issued by the headquarters today, word by word, sentence by word, those who do not comply will be killed!" ”
The generals were shocked, and hurriedly said in unison:
"The last general and others must obey the military order!"
