Chapter 66: Step by step
Soldiers are fast.
This truth is very clear to both Lu Xiangsheng and Sun Chuanting.
Originally, it was planned to let the soldiers rest in the Shanhaiguan Pass for a few days before starting the operation.
It's just that in the previous battle to capture the city, when he didn't control the whole city, he had already run away from some spies and deserters.
There was no way, Sun Chuanting had no choice but to order, leaving the Qilin Legion and the Guards Scouts to be temporarily stationed in Shanhaiguan and not moving.
The remaining four field corps, after completely cleaning up and controlling the entire Shanhaiguan City, marched east out of Shanhaiguan and marched along the western Liaoning corridor with each corps as units before three o'clock in the afternoon.
They must clean up all the military towns and guard posts on the front line of Jinzhou and Ningyuan as soon as possible and completely control them.
Otherwise, he will inevitably be taken advantage of by Huang Taiji, who learned the news of the great changes in Shanhaiguan.
I'm afraid, but I won't be afraid.
Today's legions of the new army will not be afraid of that emperor Taiji.
It is estimated that he would like him to take advantage of the fire to rob and then touch a bag.
Everyone is just worried that many people in Liaodong, who are already suffering, will suffer unnecessary losses.
Since the great change in the capital, the soldiers have become aware of some of the tempers of His Majesty the Emperor.
Today's emperor regards the displaced people as more important than anything else, and will never sit back and watch those Liaodong people being harmed by Huang Taiji when he can.
Sun Chuanting, Lu Xiangsheng and various army commanders all knew that His Majesty the Emperor had decided to send troops to Shanhaiguan this time: to recapture most of the people of Liaodong from the hands of Huang Taiji.
In second place is the lesson of blood to Huang Taiji.
The third purpose is to regain control of the entire Liaoxi Corridor and return it to the hands of the imperial court.
After achieving these three goals, it was time for the next step: to continue to bleed Huang Taiji in Liaodong, and then attack everywhere to grab enough horses for His Majesty the Emperor to assemble a large number of elite cavalry.
In this era, if you want to really solve the crisis on the northern border, there are not enough war horses to form a strong cavalry, which is simply a joke.
……
"Lu Jiude."
At the beginning of the afternoon, after the four major field armies were deployed, Zhu Youxiao summoned Lu Jiude.
"Your task is to continue to be responsible for supporting the construction corps, and the troops will be divided into two routes, from Shanhaiguan to Xining Fort; From Shanhaiguan to Tianjin Sanwei, these two super official roads and large farms along the way. ”
"These two tasks are the two basic national policies of our Ming Empire, and they must be continuously promoted."
Zhu Youxiao has already classified these two complementary plans that he has made into the basic national policy, and he said:
"With the implementation of these two basic national policies, their scope and scale will inevitably become larger and larger, and your 100,000 brave guard battalion will be more nervous to deal with."
"So be it."
He thought for a moment and decided, "Your Brave Guard Army has expanded to three legions, nine divisions, and a total of 270,000 soldiers. ”
"All the soldiers, selected from the nearly 10 million personnel of the various construction brigades of the Royal Construction Company, are still the same: men between the ages of sixteen and twenty-five, with a clean net worth and no bad habits."
"Lu Jiude, you are the first commander of the upcoming Brave Guard Army Headquarters, commanding the 270,000 soldiers of the Brave Guard Army, and fully responsible for the formation of the Brave Guard Army Headquarters."
"After the expansion and formation of the Brave Guard is completed, it will be reported to me for approval."
"The corresponding soldiers, money, food and other materials, I will explain to Yan Yingyuan and Sun Chuanting, after you complete the selection of personnel, you can directly send people to the Royal Military Equipment Department and the Quartermaster Logistics Department to collect them."
Zhu Youxiao looked a little frightened when he saw Lu Jiude overjoyed, so he explained, "The reason why Shu is in such a hurry to expand Daniel Zhang's guard army is to immediately advance the Daguan Road towards Duoyan Sanwei after the Liaoxi Corridor and Tianjin Sanwei are opened soon!" ”
"I must eliminate the unstable factor of Duoyan Sanwei, cut off Huang Taiji's idea of entering the customs and robbing, and build three new big cities in the Duoyan Sanwei area to persecute that Huang Taiji and give him continuous bloodletting!"
"Of course, this is also to snatch a large number of war horses, so that the five Divine Beast Legions and the Guards Scouts can smoothly form a powerful cavalry."
Zhu Youxiao will not underestimate that Huang Taiji.
After all, this is a heroic figure of his time.
From a mysterious point of view, it is this Huang Taiji who has great courage and great luck!
Otherwise, a nation with a population of just over a million people would not have been able to achieve such a miracle as a snake swallowing an elephant under any circumstances.
Throughout Huang Taiji's life, as if he had God's blessing, almost everything he did came true.
Historically, such a huge Mongolia, with so many cavalry and people, actually gave Huang Taiji an unhurried blow one by one, and became the emperor of the great Mongolia.
So much so that with the great help of Mongolia and many traitors, the Manchu Qing Dynasty finally completed the destruction of the Ming Empire and created the miracle of snakes swallowing elephants.
This is by no means something that a hero can do, Zhu Youxiao must continue to attack Huang Taiji and curb his almost unparalleled luck.
Duoyan Sanwei, on the surface, is surrendered to Daming, but he doesn't know how much he hates Daming in his heart.
In history, almost all of the four major robberies of the Manchu Qing Dynasty passed through the territory of Duoyan Sanwei, and I have never seen them stop even once!
And the frequent destruction of various military towns in the western Liaoning corridor is almost all the soldiers and people of the Yan Sanwei, echoing from the inside, and the inside should be combined with the outside, so that they will be easily broken by Huang Taiji one by one.
Those who are not of my race will have different hearts.
This sentence is absolutely not wrong.
Not to mention the current era when there is no superweapon town, even in later generations, many big countries have town-country weapons, and there are many contradictions between whites and other races, especially blacks, and they are irreconcilable.
Even if everyone gets along peacefully for the time being, one day, their contradictions will erupt, and they will be out of control.
Anyway, Zhu Youxiao has made up his mind to eliminate the tumor of Duoyan Sanwei as soon as possible.
Because the enemy hidden within oneself is the most terrible.
You don't know when, he's going to stick a knife in your ribs.
As Lu Jiude retreated and left, Zhu Youxiao also got up and strode out of the City Lord's Mansion, ready to go to see Shanhaiguan, the first pass in the world.
Although with the attack power of Zhu Youxiao's side now, any Guancheng is almost useless against the soldiers.
However, I arrived at this Shanhaiguan and did not appreciate the famous Xiongguan of this era, which is a little regrettable.
When I walked out of the city lord's mansion, I saw that the street was full of soldiers who had returned from the homes of corrupt officials, local tyrants and shoddy gentry, and carried a large amount of booty.
Of course, the most are the construction workers who are busy working in the streets and alleys, renovating Shanhaiguan and renovating the old city.
Among the huge construction teams, most of them have some migrant workers with yellow faces and thin muscles, but their eyes are full of hope, and they are scrambling to be the first to do things.
These migrant workers look like they have just joined the Royal Architectural Team.
Three meals a day, as well as wages, and a free exquisite house to house the old and young......
This kind of incredible treatment makes them feel like a dream!
One day in hell, one day in heaven.
In the blink of an eye, these new migrant workers have come from hell to heaven, where will they not work with all their heart?
This kind of fantastic life, everyone is afraid of losing it again, and working hard is a matter of course.
