Lu Xiangsheng Chongzhen in the second year of his tenure in the prefect of the Daimyo once took the initiative to recruit troops and rushed thousands of miles to King Qin, the king of Beijing, he was definitely a responsible scholar, and the temptation of recovering the territory and opening up the territory was so great for him. www.. com

Historically, his resolute refusal to negotiate peace with the Manchu Qing Dynasty led to the failure of Yang Sichang's plan to "settle the outside world before securing the interior", so he was squeezed out and finally collapsed.

Judging the situation, even though Yang Sichang's strategy is actually the only way to save the Ming Dynasty, it can be seen that Lu Xiangsheng is a good man who would rather bend than bend and never give in to other races.

The "Red Banner Army" needs this kind of national hero who can be literate and martial, and have a straight backbone.

As long as Lu Xiangsheng is willing, when he launches a campaign to attack the Great Yue Kingdom, he will be able to get the position of senior praise painting and participate in the strategy with Sun Chuanting, Chen Qiyu and so on.

successfully completed the task of negotiating with the imperial court, and Sun Chuanting, Zhang Fengyi, Liang Tingdong, and Wu Xiang, who were extremely relaxed and comfortable, were invited by civil officials and military generals and Xungui to go to the city of sleepless for a drink.

Sun Yuanhua is a member of the Donglin Party, of course, he publicized the investment policy to the officials of the Donglin Party, and there was a big man who came by appointment, this person was Cao Huachun, who was close to the Donglin Party, the chief of ceremonies Bingbi, the governor of Dongchang, and the governor of Jingying.

Although the eunuch Cao is not bad, it is not ambiguous to make money, and the Cao family can be regarded as a person who has attained the Tao and ascended to heaven.

Cao Huachun's sons, nephews, and brothers were all mixed into a half-official position, and the highest official position was Cao Huachun's own brother, Cao Huayu, the governor of the army.

A Cao family who was once so poor that they sold their sons and daughters, because Cao Huachun gave up his balls to be a eunuch and turned over and became a nobleman, this kind of family's thirst for money is of course endless.

The "Red Banner Army" was involved in Tianjin Wei, and the Cao family in Wangqingtuo Town, Wuqing County, could no longer occupy the land unscrupulously, and the Cao family also aimed at investing in steel mills, and the purpose of Cao Huachun's coming here was to take out 200,000 taels of silver to participate in the shares.

It is estimated that the reason why the Donglin Party has an ambiguous relationship with Cao Huachun is that it has fed this big eunuch, and Qian Qianyi was almost killed by Wen Tiren in history, and it was because of Cao Huachun's action that he was able to escape.

Helping so much is simply a life-saving grace, and it is self-evident how much benefit Qian Qianyi, who has a thick family background, should give Cao Huachun.

The demand for capital in the great development is endless, and the wealth owned by civil and military generals, nobles, eunuchs, royal families, and scholars may account for one percent of the total wealth of the Ming Dynasty.

Cao Huachun is willing to participate in the investment, although he can also play a leading role in the name of his brother, and there are many eunuchs who have accumulated a rich family background, and they have followed suit and come up with millions of taels of silver.

Of course, Sun Yuanhua attached great importance to the eunuch Bingbi, and had a very happy conversation with Cao Huachun, and finalized the investment amount.

The guests and hosts chatted happily, and after a big meal, they went to the sauna, except for the 200,000 taels that Cao Huachun paid, the investment amount promised by dozens of officials verbally has exceeded 2 million taels of silver. www.. com

In the Ming Dynasty, less than 30% of the Donglin Party officials remained incorruptible, and the vast majority of them were corrupt officials.

These people's heads are lively, and they all think that it is worth investing in after listening to Sun Yuanhua's detailed introduction of the development prospects of vehicle factories, iron and steel plants, iron mines, coal mines, and coking plants.

They also said that they would write to their protégés and former officials and in the same year to introduce them to the investment rules, and the amount of investment they received would definitely be doubled or even multiplied several times.

Wu Xiang and the nobles are already cooperating, and the atmosphere of the old friends meeting again is of course more enthusiastic, and in the end, even if Wu Xiang's "alcohol" test cannot withstand the enthusiasm of the nobles, they are drunk and unconscious.

During the banquet, the nobles not only expressed their participation in the investment in the vehicle factory and the steel factory, but also forced Wu Xiang to find a way to get a bicycle for everyone.

This is not a big deal at all, Wu Xiang promised to send one to each family.

Xungui likes to show off, and they get the bicycle to definitely walk around the capital, and the advertising effect is more than the value of a bicycle

Zhang Fengyi and Liang Tingdong also talked well, and there were also many people without party affiliation, the Zhejiang Party, the Chu Party, and former eunuch party officials, who had a strong interest in investing in steel factories and vehicle factories, and they donated money one after another.

The meritorious service troupe returned with a full load after half a month in Beijing.

"Kaiping Iron and Steel Plant", "Kaiping Vehicle Factory", "Kaiping Coking Plant", "Kaiping Coal Mine", "Kaiping Cement Plant" and other joint-stock companies in planning have raised a total of more than 10 million taels of silver.

Funds are sufficient and easy to handle, preliminary preparations are already underway, and construction will be carried out in the spring, at least more than 100,000 people will be able to solve the employment problem.

Time is like an arrow, the sun and the moon are like a shuttle, and in the blink of an eye, it began to snow in Liaodong, and at this time the Jinzhou defense line has been basically completed, and the "Red Banner Army" has 18 regular barracks stationed in the defense area.

Today, the total number of regular soldiers of the "Red Banner Army" has not reached 300,000, and because it has obtained a large number of cavalrymen of different names who have been regularized, the number of reinforced battalions with an additional cavalry and a total of 1,000 cavalry has reached eight.

The main barracks has one guard battalion, eight reinforced battalions, eighteen Type A battalions, eighteen Type B battalions, six battalions of marines, and three female battalions, making a total of 54 battalions.

The garrison army has reached a total scale of 108,000, and the main soldiers stationed outside the pass are regular soldiers, basically a battalion of regular soldiers with a thousand households of guards, accounting for less than 30 percent.

Among the "Red Banner Army" stationed on the defense line of the Great Wall, the garrison army reached half and was stationed in the interior, and the number of garrison troops was twice that of the regular soldiers.

At the time of the Pingliao War, 22 regular barracks could be assembled, 40,000 garrisons could be transferred, and 50,000 cold weapon auxiliaries with combat effectiveness could be requisitioned, bringing the total number to 200,000.

In the case of the Qing army, which is dominated by cold weapons, as long as there are no mistakes in tactics, in the state of corps battle, it is impossible to do it with one as ten, and it should not be too difficult to use one enemy with three.

The shortcoming is still cavalry warfare, and the most worrying thing is that the Manchurian cavalry retains its strength and refuses to fight a decisive battle to abandon Shengjing and escape to the steppe.

It is not a lie that the puppet Manchu Qing who mobilized the whole people was able to gather two or three hundred thousand troops, and Huang Han was never so arrogant as to fantasize about encircling and annihilating so many Qing troops, and he couldn't surround them even if he wanted to.

Without him, within a year or two, where would Huang Han be able to gather an army of one million, and it was a strong army with combat effectiveness and the courage to fight and be able to resist the Manchu and Mongolian cavalry

How could the encirclement be completed without a threefold superiority in troops

Huang Han was able to conclude that the Red Gangster wanted to hold Shengjing, and he could also be sure that the slave chieftain would lead the army and civilians to retreat north when he found that Shengjing was undefendable.

With the strength of the cavalry of the "Red Banner Army", the Manchurian and Mongolian cavalry chasing more troops than their own side will be able to break out at any time.

If the Qing army fights out the concentrated use of the "Red Banner Army" cavalry, it will be difficult to fight in the future, and it will return to the dead cycle of the Ming Dynasty against the Manchurian cavalry, unable to complete the surprise attack, and can only defend the city, and finally be broken one by one.
