Chapter 292: Plotting to seize the South Four Guards
When Huang Han was leaving, he deliberately invited Jin Sheng, Huang Long and the generals of Dongjiang Town back at the temporary flagship.
There have been several contacts, and the two sides have lost a lot of mustard, and the high-grade liquor produced by the Huang family has been unanimously praised by the generals of Dongjiang Town, and Huang Han opened his mouth while the wine was hot.
He told the generals of Dongjiang Town that the "Red Banner Army" would raid Nansiwei sooner or later, and asked the chief military officer of Huanglong and the imperial history of the supervising army to increase the intensity of operating Lushunkou.
Since Mao Wenlong died unjustly, Dongjiang Town has been in turmoil, and the generals who used to fight with the Houjin Army have not taken the initiative to fight with Jiannu for many years.
Jin Sheng and Huang Long are not the old department of Dongjiang Town, they are both outsiders, Jin Sheng is still an angry patriot, and he is also a military fan who is familiar with military books and practice.
He was too eager to recover the homeland of the Ming Dynasty, and seeing that the "Red Banner Army" had the intention of taking the initiative to attack Nansiwei, he immediately stated that he would personally go to Lushunkou to garrison after a while, hoping that Huang Han would notify him in time to coordinate the operation when he launched an attack.
The work of recovering the land is so great that the chief military officer Huang Long was moved.
Moreover, Huang Han had the great exploits of successfully completing the sneak attack and achieving the "Qingcheng Victory", and Huang Long saw the big war ships of the "Red Banner Army" Yu Battalion with his own eyes, and he believed that Huang Han should have the ability to raid the southern four guards.
He said, "Lord Huang is ambitious, and the official does not want to do nothing, when to do it, Lord Huang only needs to inform him, and the people of Dongjiang Town will definitely go all out." ”
Huang Han looked at the generals of Dongjiang Town who were sitting and found that only Shang Kexi was a big traitor in the future, such as Huang Long, Shen Shikui, Shang Keyi, Li Weiluan, Shang Kejin, Xiang Zuolin, Fan Hualong, Zhang Dalu, etc.
With his own birth, he must always make good use of these national heroes, and he can no longer let the heroes be dusted, and let traitors such as Kong Youde, Geng Zhongming, and Shang Kexi, who betray the country and seek glory, have the last laugh.
Huang Han bowed his hand to the generals of Dongjiang Town present and said, "Generals, the South Fourth Guard is by the sea, the battalion of our Red Banner Army is developing, and the craftsmen are in full swing to build warships, I believe that it will not be long before the naval division has the strength to fight." “
Shen Shikui is different from Huanglong, he has been an island general for more than ten years, and it is common for him to take the camp to travel with the islands and Lushunkou, he is familiar with sea ships, and if he takes his headquarters to fight a naval battle, his combat effectiveness should be stronger than that of a land battle.
When he came to Huang Han's temporary flagship for a banquet, he had a good look at this big warship, and he was immediately envious. He thought that if he had a few such ships, he would definitely be able to fight all over the Liaohai invincible.
Shen Shikui stood up and clenched his fists and asked, "Lord Huang, I don't know how many warships you have built, such as the one we are riding on now, I heard that the guns of this warship are not yet complete, I don't know how many guns this warship has."
Huang Han said truthfully, "There should be three such warships that can be put into service this year, and they should be equipped with more than ten heavy guns." ”
Shen Shikui patted his thigh and said, "With such artillery fire, it is enough, our army can use the advantage of the water division to launch a surprise attack, Nansiwei can completely do it, Jiannu does not have a water division, and our army will not suffer huge losses even if it is not successful." ”
Li Weiluan's insight is even better than Shen Shikui's, and in the case of being invincible, he is even more eager to make contributions and hold his fists
"Lord Huang, the sons and daughters under the command of the lower officials are not bad breeds, and there are more than 20 large and small sea ships in their hands, and the lower officials are willing to participate in the attack on Nansiwei, and they will definitely obey the dispatch of the adults at that time."
Huang Han promised: "My lords, at that time, the Red Banner Army will attack the main attack, and after recovering the homeland, I am willing to share the credit with the generals of the Dongjiang River." ”
As soon as his words fell, Shang Kexi was the first to stand up and hug his fists and said, "Lord Huang, a certain dare to fight and is willing to fight to the death to serve the country, my lord attacked Nan Siwei, and asked for an order to lead his subordinates as the vanguard battalion of the army." ”
"Faint" so many martyrs who sacrificed their lives for Daming haven't opened their mouths yet, how can it be your turn to be impassioned
Although Huang Han thought so in his heart, he still had to show a happy expression on his face, and when people expressed his position like this, he always had to say something, Huang Han said, "General Shang is brave and loyal to his own officials, and in the coming days, we will work together to kill the enemy and make contributions on the battlefield of recovering the country and opening up the territory." ”
At this time, Huang Hanzhen had different hearts, he was thinking about whether there was a chance to pit Shang Ke on the battlefield, so that he would die in the vicious battle with Jiannu and become a martyr of the Ming Dynasty, so as not to become a traitor who had been stinking for thousands of years.
After quelling the rebellion launched by Geng Zhongyu, Huanglong did not break his legs, cut off his ears and nose by the rebels as in history, and the number of people killed in the rebellion on Phi Dao was reduced by seventy or eighty percent.
The "Red Banner Army" had contacts with Dongjiang Town, and a certain degree of trust was established between the two armies, and a memorandum of understanding was signed to provide foreign aid to each other, to work hand in hand when attacking the enemy, and to help each other when attacked by the enemy.
After successfully completing this diplomacy, Huang Han returned with a team of nearly 20 more ships, and when he left Phi Dao, he took with him more than 4,000 Liao people trapped on the island.
This time, Huang Han, who took the initiative to participate in the suppression of the rebellion in Dongjiang Town, actually made a lot of money, and the small twenty large sea ships used for smuggling, with a cargo value of nearly 400,000 taels of silver, it was impossible for these ships to be returned to Huang Han.
The Shen family has just been raided, and the prisoner has been escorted into Beijing by Zhang Tao's soldiers for questioning, and on the cusp of this storm, where will other smuggling families in Denglai have the courage to come to the "Red Flag Army" to ask for the detained ship
Moreover, when he returned to the "Tiger's Den" city, Huang Han was ready to hand over the sailors, gunners and captains of the smuggling ship to Gao Youmou and Zheng Xiaowen for interrogation and screening, and he was sure that he would catch the handle of a certain family.
Next, Gao Youmou and Zheng Xiaowen, who are used to doing this kind of thing, will not only not return the smuggling ship and goods, but it should not be a problem to extort a hush money.
In order to seek rapid development, Huang Han's thirst for money and food was endless, and at this time, the Han nation was facing the ruin of the country and the destruction of the family, and was facing the fact that they would be reduced to barbarian slaves for hundreds of years, and it was not the time to talk about morality.
Moreover, ignoring the national policy of the imperial court's economic blockade and building slaves, the military generals and scholars who used their power to smuggle and make windfalls were not good birds, and they ruthlessly blackmailed these people without ideological burden.
In order to increase the population, Huang Han temporarily gave up running transportation to make a fortune, but spared no effort to transport Liao people back and forth between Denglai, Phi Dao, Lushunkou, and Shenmi Island, and also brought some food to the generals stationed on the islands of Dongjiang Town.
After more than 300 shipbuilders worked overtime for half a year, invested more than 60,000 man-hours, and paid more than 4,000 taels of silver, all 15 old gate ships were born.
The largest ship displacement is 500 tons, and the net cost of a warship of this class, excluding equipment, is as high as 6,000 taels of silver, and if the equipment and decoration are completed, I am afraid that the value will more than double.
