At night, both sides of the super official road, which is nearly ten miles away, are brightly lit, and the sky is red and bright.

It stands to reason that since ancient times, when a large army goes out on an expedition, it has to find a place where the water source and environment meet the requirements to camp.

How can there be such a thing as now, where 500,000 soldiers are happily living in new houses and talking and laughing?

However, today's Shuntian Mansion and Yongping Mansion have undergone a round of sweeping cleanup by various divisions and regiments, and the big and small thieves are almost extinct.

Even those hooligans and ruffians and youth gang members in various places were all arrested and dragged to various mines for forced labor reform.

The current entire territory of Shuntian Mansion, and most of Yongping Mansion, can be described as not closing at night.

In this way, there is no need for the army to camp in the field.

If it weren't for the fact that the current fire oil was still a little nervous, according to Sun Chuanting and Lu Xiangsheng's idea, the soldiers would have to hurry overnight and not stop to rest until the early hours of the morning.

However, under Zhu Youxiao's strong order, Sun Chuanting's suggestion was rejected, and the soldiers of the army entered several large farms on both sides of Daguan Road to rest early when it was just dark.

Anyway, now that there is plenty of time, Zhu Youxiao is not so urgent, so it is necessary for the soldiers to recuperate and maintain high morale and physical strength.

On this expedition, Zhu Youxiao wanted to beat the emperor Taiji and let out a good breath of evil.

And the five major field legions, speaking of which, do not have any experience in major wars, so all aspects must be noted.

lest after the army leaves the customs, if you are not careful, the ship will capsize.

Several large farms in this area were specially vacated a few days ago, specifically for the purpose of this expedition to rest and recuperate.

This kind of temporary farm camp, and a few other places along the way, were carefully inspected by officers of the General Staff after strictly calculating the speed of the march of the army.

It can be said that this time the 500,000-strong army set out for the expedition, and all aspects of preparation have been achieved to the extreme.

This kind of close coordination between the army and logistics is very necessary.

An invincible army is cultivated and trained from the usual bits and pieces, the cooperation of various large and small matters.

Zhu Youxiao's requirements for the field corps are not ordinarily high.

He really regulates the words and deeds of the soldiers according to the requirements of the elite armies of the countries of the world in the 21st century.

He didn't want to have any unexpected failures in the future.

In a word, he doesn't like the feeling of losing in a war.

Winning all battles is what he wants.

Naturally, he was a male soldier with the Guards Scouts and lived on a large farm.

Male and female soldiers live in two large farms next to each other.

The concept that a soldier should look like a soldier, and that there is a difference between men and women must be established for the soldiers of the Boy Guard.

After dinner and a shower, Zhu Youxiao explained that T68, who had just returned from Li Dingguo's side, had a vigil and went to bed early.

When he goes out with the army, he must lead by example and set a good example for these child soldiers.

The role of role models, in the military, the influence is enormous.

T68 This guy, when he saw that his master was sleeping, he stopped fighting with Xiaobai in the yard, and dutifully lay at the door of the bedroom, pricked up his big ears, and pretended to sleep.

Outside the customs of this expedition, Zhu Youxiao only brought out two big dogs, T62 and T68.

One followed himself or Li Dingguo, and the other mutated dog T62 followed Lu Xiangsheng's side as a sentry for the former army.

The fighting chicken he carries with him is also only F35.

The other combat chicken F22, which was originally with him, was handed over by him to Wang Qinian, the commander of the Qilin Legion.

In this way, the commanders of the five field legions and the Guards have a strong sky scout and herald respectively.

After F35 flew back to the capital to deliver the message to Xiao Xuanzi, he returned to Zhu Youxiao with Xiao Xuanzi's receipt not long ago.

Now, it is sleeping on the roof of the house where Zhu Youxiao is located.

……

There was nothing to say all night, and early in the morning, Zhu Youxiao was woken up by a military horn.

He also participated in a lot of military training with the soldiers, and he was very familiar with the army's set: getting up, washing, going out to attend morning classes, and having breakfast......

Zhu Youxiao was meticulously completed, exactly the same as the soldiers, and did not engage in any specialization.

At the moment of the hour, the Guards Legion had already arrived at the Daguan Road and was about to open the room, when a colorful light passed by quickly from the distance of the sky!

In the blink of an eye, "Whoosh! With a bang, a colorful big bird flew to Zhu Youxiao's right shoulder and stood steadily.

“F1？”

Zhu Youxiao was suddenly shocked in his heart, "Isn't there something wrong with Lu Jiude?" ”

He hurriedly untied the bamboo tube tied to F1's legs, took out the secret report and opened it.

After a while, his face was extremely gloomy, and he asked someone to bring pen and ink, and hurriedly wrote the secret decree, tied the secret decree to F1 immediately, explained it, and then released it again.

"Order, the army hastened!"

In his words, he was full of anger, "Within five days, the army must arrive at Shanhaiguan!" ”

No wonder he was furious.

In Lu Jiude's letter, he said that yesterday evening, the construction corps built a super official road one mile away from Shanhaiguan.

What he didn't expect was that the guards of the Shanhaiguan not only closed the city gate and confronted the 30,000 soldiers of the Yongwei Army, but also shouted:

As the heroes of the "Ningjin Victory", the imperial court must pay full military salaries, otherwise, don't blame them for adopting expedient measures!

What is a stopgap measure?

The implication is that he will not blame the soldiers and generals of Liaodong and defect to Huang Taiji.

Others don't know, doesn't Zhu Youxiao know yet?

The so-called "Ningjin Great Victory", Huang Taiji broke through all the fortresses in the Liaoxi Corridor except for Ningyuan, Jinzhou, and Dafu Fort, and all the food, weapons, and materials in the fortress were seized by him.

Of course, according to the "great hero" Yuan Chonghuan and others, the "core position" was not breached, and Yuan Chonghuan and other generals achieved a "great victory" in Ningjin.

However, since Zhu Youxiao was reborn, he looked through various information and documents and learned that if it weren't for Huang Taiji's great food shortage during the Ningjin War, coupled with the internal chaos, there would have been no Ningjin victory at all.

The many texts left by Jinyiwei and Dongchang show the inside story of the Tartars during the Ningjin War:

There was a great hunger in the slave emirate, and the price of a bucket of grain was eight taels of silver, and there were cannibals among the people.

At that time, although there were many silver taels in the slave emirates, there was nowhere to trade, and everything was expensive because of the silver taels.

A good horse, worth three hundred taels of silver. A strong ox is worth one hundred taels of silver. One python satin, worth one hundred and fifty taels of silver. Mao Qingbu one, worth nine taels of silver. Thieves swarmed, stole cattle and horses, and killed each other, causing chaos in the slave country.

See clearly: the price of a bucket of grain, eight taels of silver!

At that time, in the Ming Dynasty, the highest price of grain was about one stone of rice and one tael of silver.

At this moment, Huang Taiji's side is in June of the seventh year of the Apocalypse, reaching "the price of a bucket of grain, eight taels of silver"!

This kind of aquatic and fiery situation is much more terrifying than the price of six to twelve taels of silver for one stone of rice during the peak period of grain prices in Shaanxi Province when Li Zicheng and them rebelled.

In the seventh year of the Apocalypse, what time period was May to June 1627? It was before and after the outbreak of Ningjin's "great victory" that Huang Taiji actually ran out of food!

The defeat of the Battle of Ningjin was inevitable, and Huang Taiji had no choice but to retreat from Jinzhou, return to his lair, and recuperate.

Therefore, the "Ningjin Victory" is not a great victory at all.

The Ming Dynasty spent 5 million in silver and spent 18 months painstakingly building more than 20 large and small fortresses outside the Guan, all of which were abandoned by Yuan Chonghuan in just a few days.

Even the reserves of millions of taels of silver, food, armor and other materials were all handed over to Huang Taiji's Houjin army.

At best, it only kept the last three strongholds of Ningyuan, Jinzhou, and Dafubao, and was not completely conquered by the Tartars.

And Yuan Chonghuan and others, the reason why they finally desperately defended the city, but there was no way to retreat at that time, so they had to fight desperately, and they were extremely lucky to hold on to the retreat of the Tartars, and they barely won a war victory.

During the imperial court's meritorious deeds, Zhu Youxiao was suddenly pushed into the lake and fell unconscious, causing Yuan Chonghuan to be demoted, and the situation in Liaodong became very chaotic.

This is the truth of Ningjin's victory.
