Chapter 462: The poisonous hand reached out to Zhu Zhanji
Win the battle again!
It seems that after Wang Yue trained the new army, the combat power of the Ming Dynasty soared as if it was opened, regardless of whether it was to deal with the fierce Mongolian cavalry, or the fierce Japanese who were not afraid of death, as well as North Korea, including the current Annam.
It's really like it's hand-to-hand, and there's no difficulty.
Is this that the Ming Dynasty is too strong, or have these countries all fallen collectively?
Why did Taizu, during the Taizong period, fight many battles, consume countless losses, and the problems that could not be solved, when they arrived in our Jiajing Dynasty, they went all the way and were invincible?
Could it be that he said...... Is it really destiny?
Is it our Majesty's wisdom and martial arts, Hongfu Qitian, or is Fu Yuanbo like a god with soldiers, which can be called Sun Wu in the world?
Many people want to understand what is going on, and they can only attribute it to God.
But Cui Shilin, the prince of Fuguo, knows quite well that his master's hole card is just two words: smash money!
Of course, even if you are given money, not everyone can spend it well.
Wang Yue belongs to the kind of person who is better at spending money, and he is more good at spending money.
In fact, the Han and Tang dynasties proved that as long as the supply of food and salary is sufficient, the quality of ordnance is passable, and the training of soldiers is sufficient...... Having all three, coupled with the right strategy, and moving forward step by step, it is very difficult to lose.
And Wang Yue is precisely the master of this way.
Ever since he won the battle of Dushan Fort by spending money, the new army he led has been running wild on this road of no return......
First of all, it is the salary, which Zhu Houxi grasps very tightly, and neither the household department nor the military department dares to deduct it. In peacetime, no matter how big the gap was, relying on Tianjin's stock market, as well as the money in the old lady's pocket, and Wang Yue's ability to sell bonds and raise capital.
Not a problem at all.
Moreover, Wang Yue built a horse farm in the north, sold green salt, and built an arrow farm...... These actions have kidnapped a large number of businessmen.
They have come to realize more and more that it is profitable to use troops abroad.
In the past, the imperial court fought in a daze, spending only food and salary, but it could not bring benefits to the big guys, who would want to support it?
Now it's different, as soon as they heard that they were going to use troops against Annan, many people took the initiative to send money.
For example, the Guo family of Wuding Hou, such as the Yang family and the Wang family, as well as the newly entered Zhang family, are all keen on this.
Lend money to the imperial court, and after winning the war, in exchange for control of the local area. Able to get a franchise, Dafa Li City. This has become the only way for them to get rich.
After there was no problem with the salary, the ordnance was also greatly improved.
Wang Yue took over the gunpowder workshop, and he proposed a piecework wage system to reward workers...... Not only quantity, but also quality, there are strict requirements.
All in all, as long as you do a good job, there will be rewards, and if something goes wrong, from craftsmen, to factories, to the officials who buy them, and to the generals who receive ordnance...... A whole whole list, layers of accountability, not one of them.
Not only will they be severely punished, but their children and grandchildren, who are military officials, will also be implicated.
Therefore, under Wang Yue's meticulous methods, the quality of Daming's ordnance improved rapidly.
This is not to say that it has reached the point of unattainability, but it has reached the relative height of this era...... Even so, it was enough.
In fact, Wang Yue still has a trump card.
That is the quality of the soldiers, the earliest Qingzhang Shuntian, it has been seven years now, and the doll who was in his teens at the beginning can join the army.
And after Qingzhang, many of these children have read books and learned a few words.
It's scary.
To say that they are qualified to take the imperial examination, Zhongjinshi, is nonsense.
But literacy is better than not being literate.
When Zhu Yuanzhang was herding cattle, he also went to a private school to eavesdrop, and with a cultural foundation, he had the future Hongwu Emperor; Zhang Zuolin, who is also from the grassroots, also relied on three months of private school experience to stand out from a pile of beards.
Reading and literacy, without too much, but also mastering the ability to keep improving, this is particularly crucial.
When it is implemented in the new army, you will find that many people will also find time to read books during the march, and the army will also encourage them to do so, and even subscribe to newspapers and periodicals and distribute them for the big guys to read.
So a very interesting scene appeared, obviously a vulgar martial artist, but he became a group of people with the highest average literacy rate in the entire Ming Dynasty.
What's the use of literacy?
Is it possible to defeat the enemy by reading a book?
Obviously, this is not going to work.
But the problem is that it is precisely because there are so many literate martial artists that a group has gradually emerged in the army of the Ming Dynasty, that is, staff officers!
When this group of people appeared, another subversive situation appeared.
The Ming army fought and no longer relied on a certain general.
In fact, in the era of cold weapons, the vast majority of soldiers were blind, they didn't even know what they were going to do, they just followed orders from above.
If the situation is good, morale is high, and combat effectiveness can be maintained.
If the morale is not good, it is not uncommon for you to encounter a waste commander, tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, hundreds of thousands, hundreds of thousands, and collapse at the touch of a button.
This is a great test of the general's personal ability, a super commander genius like Han Xin, and a natural cavalry commander like Huo Quzhi, are all hard to find.
Get one, and you can create a dazzling splendor of it.
And famous generals are hard to come by, so ancient wars are full of uncertainty, and no matter how powerful a dynasty is, there are times when there are accidents.
And all the changes began with the appearance of the staff officers.
Because they have a considerable number of staff officers, they will convey their combat intentions to the soldiers below, and of course, they will also tell the soldiers' opinions to the above.
They can also participate in the development of battle plans, the organization and movement of soldiers, and battlefield command.
At this point, the ability of the main general is still very important, but it is not the only winning factor.
The Ming army quietly completed the earth-shattering upheaval.
Even they don't know about it.
It was only on the battlefield that they realized their strength.
Next came the campaign against Annan.
The whole process is lackluster, basically the extent of the exercise, or even worse.
First of all, the Guangxi and Yunnan sides of the Ming Dynasty bluffed and made a posture of continuing to march along the march of the Yongle era and crusade against Annam.
Then the new army reached the central part of the country of Annam with the help of ships.
In the thinnest place, a knife is inserted into it.
Annam annexed the Cham for a short time, and as the north and south were cut off, the remnants of the Cham forces were immediately restored, and Annam lost half of the country at once.
This is not counting, the Ming army rushed north again, attacking the 50,000 Annamite men and horses who were hastily transferred back from Langshan and other places.
The strong firepower of the Ming army made these Annam people all stupid.
Pieces fell in pieces, corpses stretched for dozens of miles, and the river was dyed red.
The only thing worth mentioning is the coward Qiu Luan at the beginning, this time he was in charge of logistics, but it was not in the army, but similar to the militia, the kind of maritime armament.
I don't know where the courage came from, so I took more than 2,000 people to take the Shenglong Mansion in Annan, but I let him get it.
The incompetent coward captured the king of Annam in one fell swoop!
This news stunned everyone at once.
Annan is too wasteful, why can't he even beat Qiu Luan, are you pigs?
Whether they are or not, this is hard to say.
But there is one man, but the pig!
That is our Emperor Xuanzong, the little black fat man Zhu Zhanji.
For a long time, the civil officials of the Ming Dynasty have particularly respected the rule of Renxuan.
regarded the big fat man and the little black fat man as benchmarks, faintly overshadowing Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di.
The general logic is that you are so happy, it is better for Renzong and Xuanzong to love the people, rest for the people, and really do the good for the people...... The general logic of this is to blow the words of the Song Dynasty, you see that although the Song people had to pay the New Year's coin, although they were passively beaten, although they were first hammered by the Khitan, then by the Western Xia hammer, and were robbed of Kaifeng by the Jin people, and lost half of the country, and finally even half of the country could not be saved, so that the Mongols snatched it.
But the Song people are very wealthy, the culture is developed, the kings are kind, and they treat the scholars very well, so what kind of country is strong, and the dignity of the small people doesn't matter?
I'm sorry, if you take this set of words, during the Jingkang period, go to Kaifeng and tell the people that you will ensure that there are no bones left!
The strength of the country is there, and anyone in their right mind knows how to choose.
Xuanzong gave up Annan, and now Jiajing has broken Annan, and this former homeland is expected to return to the hands of the Ming Dynasty. Aren't those who advocate preaching Buddhism embarrassed?
And some time ago, Wang Yue released "Ping Wu Dahu", a heroic article from Annan, which was publicized by the newspaper, not to mention that everyone knows it, and it is almost the same.
In it, Annan scolded Xuanzong Zhu Zhanji as worthless, and the Ming Dynasty at that time pretended to be confused, what is this?
Where is the weather in the heyday?
Whoever dares to say that this is right, go up and give two slaps.
Anyway, it's right that you're being beaten, so I'll beat you!
Not only do you have to fight, but you also want you to spit in the face.
If you don't accept it, you won't accept it, and you'll hit me!
Annan, who had been arrogant for a hundred years, was finally beaten by Zhu Houxi.
"Fang Shangshu, I went to the Taimiao today to comfort the ancestors, especially Emperor Xuanzong...... I took revenge on his behalf, so should he also ...... Do you know how to advance or retreat? ”
Fang Xianfu doesn't know why, what do you mean?
"It's nothing, it's nothing, it's just that the location of this temple seems to be a little less!"
