Chapter 234: Master Warat

Early the next morning, in view of the fact that the army of thieves and thieves of Ye Zongliu and Deng Mao's seven divisions had been raging, under the premise that the military department was wantonly recruiting troops and horses to go south, Yushan Town was already destined to be involved.

Therefore, Liu Juntao urgently ordered the Investigation Department to issue a notice, convening the commanders of the main barracks of Yanzhou Mansion, the Qibing Barracks, and the battalions of the Yushan Town Guards, and the general manager of Qianshan to discuss the matter of sending troops south.

At the same time, Liu Juntao also urgently ordered the ministers of the Ministry of Commerce, the Ministry of Civil Affairs, the Ministry of Military, and the Ministry of Exploration to rush back to Yushan Town to deploy the preparations before the war.

As Liu Juntao issued orders continuously, the entire Yushan Town was like an efficient machine, and began to gallop rapidly, everyone rushed towards Yushan Town, and the money and grain of the Ministry of Commerce and the Ministry of Civil Affairs also began to be transported, and preparations were made in advance for hoarding.

At the same time, Ren Chengwei commanded Lei Bo and Yan Shenggong of Qufu County also sent people to probe Liu Juntao's words, after all, sending troops south to fight with hundreds of thousands of thieves and thieves was extremely dangerous, and the commander Lei Bai and Yan Shenggong Kong Yanjin were a little worried, afraid that once the military department recruited the people of Yushan Town, Liu Juntao would refuse to send troops.

In this way, things will be a big problem, not only will Lei Bo be severely punished by the imperial court under the command of the city guard, but even Kong Yanjin, the sage prince who is close to Yushan Town, will also be implicated!

Simply, in the face of Li Qianhu sent by Ren Chengwei and Mr. Shan sent by Yan Shenggong, Liu Juntao's answer was very simple: "The troops, money and grain of Yushan Town have begun to be allocated, as long as the order of the imperial court is delivered, I will immediately lead my troops to the south to defend the Ming Dynasty to the death!" ”

At this time, Ren Chengwei commanded Lei Bai and Yan Shenggong Kong Yanjin all breathed a sigh of relief, but Liu Juntao was still nervous.

After all, this southward movement is different from the past, at most, it is to face tens of thousands of thieves, all of them are rabble, and the Yushan Town Guards can easily sweep over.

And now that Ye Zongliu and Deng Maoqi have joined forces, and the two of them have gathered nearly a million, just such a terrifying force is enough to make the morale of the Yushan Town Guards low!

Therefore, Liu Juntao's heart is also a little anxious, although it is far from being afraid, at least he is a little worried, which is impossible in the previous fierce battles!

"Now I finally understand that in the face of the peasant rebel army in history, why the officers and armies of the past dynasties have been indecisive for a long time, before the overwhelming firepower advantage of hot ~ weapons, the gap in numbers is an insurmountable gap!"

Not long after, the managers of the Ministry of Commerce, the Ministry of Civil Affairs, the Ministry of Military, and the Investigation Department, as well as the generals of the Yanzhou Mansion Zheng Barracks, Qi Barracks, and Yushan Town battalions, rushed back one after another, and gathered together in the Yushan Town Government Office.

Liu Juntao also came to the government office early and chatted with everyone for a while.

At this time, the industry of Yushan Town can already be described as huge, so everyone rarely stays in their respective offices in Yushan Town on weekdays, and they are all running around, not to mention the generals of the garrisons everywhere, everyone has not seen each other for a long time, and even many people have not been able to rush back during the Chinese New Year.

After everyone exchanged pleasantries, they came to the conference room in the government office under the leadership of Liu Juntao.

Liu Juntao sat upright, and everyone also sat down in order of left martial arts and right text.

The ministers sat in the front row, and the ministers sat behind the ministers; The same is true for the Yushan Town Guards, the Zheng Barracks, and the Qi Barracks, all the commanders and envoys are sitting in the first row, and the rest of the Qianzong are sitting in the back.

Liu Juntao saw that everyone had arrived, so he said to Liu Zi'an: "Okay, let's start now!" ”

Liu Zi'an got up and first saluted Liu Juntao, and then saluted everyone sitting one by one, and then Ye Zongliu led the thieves to join the giant Deng Maoqi, and the two of them gathered nearly a million people together, and captured most of Fujian, as well as Jiangxi and Guangdong.

After that, Liu Zi'an said: "Ladies and gentlemen, now the imperial court has issued an order to requisition soldiers and horses from all over the country to go south to conquer and suppress, and the order to requisition our Shandong soldiers and horses has been sent to Jinan Mansion, and it is estimated that it will not be long before Jinan Mansion will requisition the people and horses of our Yushan Town to go south." ”

Hearing this, everyone was talking about it, and the guards of Yushan Town, the generals of the main barracks and the strange barracks were all eager to try, wanting to take this opportunity to make contributions.

The invincible record of the people and horses in Yushan Town is the confidence in everyone's hearts, and everyone does not take Ye Zongliu and Deng Mao's seven departments of nearly one million thieves in their eyes.

However, Guo Yongzhong, Zhang Baigui, Tang Yu and other ministers are worried, after all, there are many thieves, even if the official army wins this time, I believe that the people and horses of Yushan Town will suffer a lot of casualties, and the strength of Yushan Town will be hit hard!

Immediately, the two sides began to argue, and a heated debate broke out about the number of troops on the expedition.

Liu Juntao understood that everyone was worried that this battle would affect the strength of Yushan Town, so he wanted to minimize the number of people on the expedition and minimize the loss.

But after Liu Juntao stopped for a while, he waved his hand and said to everyone: "Everyone! In this battle, our Yushan Town not only has to send troops, but also has to dispatch as many people as possible, which is a great opportunity for our Yushan Town to win military exploits and train soldiers and horses! ”

Everyone couldn't help but be stunned when they heard this, but they didn't expect Liu Juntao to be so resolute, and without any hesitation, he advocated sending troops south.

Liu Zi'an thought about it, and he still had to persuade him, don't make a desperate bet, after all, the soldiers are in danger, don't press all the family in Yushan Town.

But at this moment, a gentleman from the Investigation Department hurriedly walked in, and after saluting the Shangguan who was full of the room, he walked straight to Liu Zi'an and handed over a secret letter.

Liu Juntao saw it clearly, this secret letter was in red, representing the highest level of secrecy, and there were three feathers on the envelope, which was the most urgent state.

According to the rules set by Liu Juntao, the secret level of the secret letter of the Investigation Department is divided into three classes, white is the daily notice, yellow is the general emergency, such as the arrival of bandits, the outbreak of commercial wars and other civil situations, and the red represents the state of crisis, which is only used for the outbreak of national wars, major coups in the imperial court, major natural disasters, etc.

And the three feathers represent that the things recorded in the secret letter will be in danger of the safety of the Ming Dynasty, and time is running out!

At this time, the entire conference room was silent, and everyone understood what this secret letter represented, and they all looked at Liu Zi'an.

After a while, Liu Zi'an read the secret letter roughly, looked at Liu Juntao in a bit of a daze, and said: "General, the internal change of Wara, the Taishi also succeeded in seizing power first, and began to increase troops along the Great Wall!" ”

Since the death of his father Tuhuan, he has inherited his father's position, and in a very short period of time, he has reorganized the forces of Tuhuan's people and horses, and proclaimed himself King Taishi Huai.

In this way, he also took the lead in attacking, annexed more than 30 large and small tribes in a row, supported 200,000 soldiers, and overwhelmed the Great Khan of Warat, so that Tokhtar did not spend the name of the Great Khan of Warat, but not the fact of the Great Khan of Warat.

Just half a month ago, despite the opposition of Tokhtobuhua, he forcibly requisitioned 100,000 Warat troops, supported 100,000 iron cavalry to the south, and converged with tens of thousands of iron cavalry who had already confronted the Ming army along the Great Wall, gathering more than 150,000 Varat iron cavalry, and there were signs of waving his army south.

Liu Juntao took the secret letter handed over by Liu Zi'an, and suddenly remembered in his mind that in the late Ming Dynasty, the thieves Li Zicheng and the Houjin Tartars exhausted the blood of Huaxia inside and outside, and couldn't help but feel monstrous anger in his heart!

In this way, the imperial court must have focused its efforts on the Great Wall in order to prevent the Warat army from moving south. For the army of thieves in Fujian, the imperial court estimates that it will not be able to mobilize many people, and the 50,000 army that I heard about should already be the limit! ”

After speaking, Liu Juntao was also silent for a while, and everyone's hearts were a little worried.

After all, 50,000 officers and soldiers are fighting against nearly a million thieves, even if it is a million pigs, it is estimated that these 50,000 officers and soldiers can be trampled on people's backs, right?

However, unlike everyone, Liu Juntao was most worried about Ye Zongliu and Deng Maoqi who were making trouble in the three southeastern provinces at this time, but Warat Taishi Yexian, this is a ruthless character, and the upcoming Tumubao change is the handiwork of this person!

For Liu Juntao, at this time in Daming, his biggest opponent is probably this first!

"This Warat Taishi is the Emperor Taiji in the orthodox period!"

Thinking of this, Liu Juntao's heart suddenly surged with a strong fighting spirit, and he said secretly: "It's okay!" After I lead my army south to quell the chaos, I will come to meet this Warat Taishi for a while. In the future, under the city of Beijing, I will see when I arrive, whether it is the power of the Warat Iron Cavalry, or the courage of my Han Tiger! ”
