Chapter 055: The Storm is Coming
The time was transferred forward to the beginning of March of the eighth year of Chongzhen, Liaodong Town.
"This time, the commander recruited all three of you, the purpose is to clarify the next stage, the relevant matters of our army's offensive on the grassland." You Shiwei exuded an amazing evil aura on his body, looking at the three generals Shang Kejin, Tao Guozuo, and Kong Youxing sitting on the chair, a certain unique smile appeared on his face.
With the rapid expansion of the soldiers and horses under Zhao Zongwu, this also enabled the generals of the Shaozhuang faction under his command to be promoted to the position of the first level of the legion.
If according to the inherent promotion mechanism of the Ming Dynasty, more than seventy percent of the senior generals under Zhao Zongwu alone are actually not qualified to seek such positions, because they are too young in the eyes of the world.
But Zhao Zongwu is not an ordinary person, he has the courage that ordinary people do not have, and it is also based on this that he can master so many soldiers and horses.
Fifteen chief military officers, fifteen military envoys, forty-five corps commanders, and forty-five legion envoys, on the other hand, also reflect what kind of terrifying talent group Zhao Zongwu has.
For a rising young force, it is better to let young talents occupy leadership positions than to make leadership positions vacant at the junction because of factors such as age and qualifications, so that the forces with unlimited potential will eventually slow down the pace of progress due to various reasons.
The corners of Shang Kejin's mouth raised slightly: "You Shuai, you just command, our legion has already been prepared, according to the practice of previous years, how to calculate this time, it should also be the turn of our legion to enter the grassland!" ”
Throughout the history of the Chinese feudal dynasties, part of the reason for the rise and decline of the feudal dynasty is that it must be inextricably linked with the alien races entrenched in the northern frontier.
According to this idea, as early as Zhao Zongwu lived in Liaodong, he used the Penglai Chamber of Commerce's foreign trade model to cultivate the grassland economy, so that the grassland tribes adjacent to Liaodong could be bound to the emerging chariot of Liaodong, which on the other hand, also solved the annual grassland tribes, cavalry will come to Liaodong and other northern frontiers to threw grass because of the vacancies required by their own departments.
With the expulsion of the Jiannu forces, the last great Khan of the grassland, Hudun Tuhan, because Jiannu died on the battlefield unexpectedly, which also made the forces on the grassland completely fall into a situation of fragmentation, and because of such a situation, Zhao Zongwu was able to use various means to balance the grassland forces.
Thus, the basic principle of 'Shunchang and Rebellion' was established.
Since the seventh year of the Apocalypse, Zhao Zongwu has implemented a series of checks and balances in the grassland area in a planned and arranged manner, and in addition to adhering to the inherent economic constraints, he has also carried out meticulous strategic arrangements in more than 10 areas such as fatwa, region, dingkou, and communication.
And the core around it is the grassland minus.
Why is it said that the fierce steppe alien race, in the feudal dynasty ruled by the Han people, threatens the northern frontier all the time, but in the feudal dynasty ruled by the alien race, it can turn this sharp sword into its own use?
The most classic example is the Manchu and Mongolian family advocated by Mites, and it is also because of the existence of such political slogans that the murderous grassland forces eventually became an obedient wolf dog by Jiannu's side, although sometimes, this wolf dog will bite twice from time to time, but more often it is loyal to follow Jiannu's side.
"Whoever it should be, it must not be able to escape." Looking at the anxious Shang Kejin, You Shiwei, who was sitting in the handsome position, said with a smile: "It's just that this year's campaign is different from previous years, before recruiting the three of you, this handsome man and Wang Shiqin, the chief soldier stationed in Thunder God Town, got angry.
This time, Liaodong Town is preparing to carry out a joint operation with Leishen Town, our legion, starting from Shenyang Zhongwei, and the legion sent by Leishen Town, starting from the Duoyan region, to encircle and suppress the grassland 'horse bandits' that emerged during this period, so as to ensure that the adjacent Phoenix City and Liaodong regions are not threatened by uncontrollable factors. ”
Shang Kejin had a smile on his face: "That You Shuai, the scale of this expedition is much stronger than before?" "Unlike other armies, the legions under the command of the Nine Border Marshal's Mansion, which are full of warmongers from top to bottom, hear that there is a battle to be fought, and the scale is not small, no one can suppress the excitement in their hearts.
No, Tao Guozuo stood up and said, "You Shuai! Since you and Wang Shuai want to expand the scale of the campaign this time, then it is definitely not enough to ensure the final strategic deployment of Shang Commander Commander Legion alone, and the last general is willing to lead the headquarters of the army to assist Shang Commander to complete this battle! ”
Hearing Tao Guozuo's words, Shang Kejin was reluctant: "Old Tao, I don't want to listen to what you say, what does it mean that I am not enough to ensure the final strategic deployment?" Could it be that the battles I fought before I could enter were all fake? After saying this, Shang Kejin's eyes widened like cow eggs.
"That's it! Lao Tao, you're a bit inauthentic! Kong Youxing, who had not spoken, stood up at this moment and said: "What you say is as if people don't know how to fight." ”
"That's it!" Hearing Kong Youxing help him speak, Shang Kejin who was next to him answered casually, but then Shang Kejin heard the words, which made him angry.
"But You Shuai, it's better to be safe in this battle, and the last general is willing to suffer......" said Kong Youxing, and began to sell himself.
Looking at this old and young man, You Shiwei had a smile on his face, as their top boss, how could You Shiwei not know what they were thinking in their hearts?
But obviously this time, Shang Kejin and none of them guessed his true intentions, this time he was ready to unite with the Thunder God Town Legion to completely sweep away the Monan region led by Horqin!
It's just that sometimes, the plan can't catch up with the changes after all.
"Report ...... Horqin Left Banner reported urgently, and Oba's department found a large number of Jiannu iron horsemen! Just when You Shiwei was about to say the strategic deployment in his heart, an angry roar sounded from outside the hall, it was an angry roar from the herald, especially after hearing the message shouted by the herald, You Shiwei, Shang Kejin, Tao Guozuo, and Kong Youxing were shocked in their hearts!
Jiannu!
How could Jiannu appear?!
It was also at that moment that You Shiwei exuded an amazing momentum on them.
It's been eight years.
After eight more years of hiding, the Jiannu are finally about to show their fangs again!
It's just that Jiannu appeared at this time, which is really a bit too coincidental......
