Chapter 664: Logistics Base

Three thousand iron horsemen galloping is enough to shock the earth, but what about a hundred thousand troops?

On the banks of the Yalu River, the camp of the Ming army is endless, and not only on the side of the Ming River, but also on the south bank of the Yalu River, which is also full of tents of the Ming army.

If there is still a regime in North Korea, maybe someone will come to protest with the Ming army or something.

But after Guanghaijun surrendered to Huang Taiji, Daming no longer recognized him as the king of Joseon, let alone Li Liang, to put it mildly, he was Ye Xun's pawn, and after using it, he should be abandoned.

At this time, it is not yet January, and the weather in the north is still cold, so you have to bring a stick when you pee, and then pull while urinating, otherwise you are likely to be frozen.

Strictly speaking, this is not a suitable time to send troops, not to mention anything else, but when it comes to logistics, the pressure is obviously greater than when the weather is warm.

Fortunately, Ye Xun is not in a hurry, Huang Taiji is already a fish on the board, and he can't run away, what Ye Xun has to do is to minimize losses.

In addition, the Jurchens are unpopular in North Korea, otherwise they have to be more careful in this battle, Ye Xun knows that Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty claimed that millions of troops were all lost in North Korea, and his number of men and horses was much less than that of Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty.

The army has not moved, and the scouts have already penetrated all over North Korea, which is to spy on the enemy, but also to incite the Korean people, your great savior is coming, hurry up and prepare for revenge and revenge!

Some people are born for the battlefield, such as Xiao Ye Zhen, the three thousand iron cavalry did not scare him, and the company camp of the 100,000 army still did not shock him, if it weren't for the heat revealed in his little eyes, Ye Xun was a little suspicious that his son was a demon.

Ye Xun rode on the same war horse with his son, and the huge cloak wrapped Xiao Ye Zhen tightly, revealing only a small brain.

Accompanied by Cao Wenzhao, You Shigong, Hou Shilu and other generals, Ye Xun and his entourage rode to the high slope of the Ming Dynasty side of the Yalu River, looking down on the company camp below and the undulating mountains on the Korean side in the distance.

"Father, are these all the troops you personally trained?"

The north wind was howling, but it still couldn't stop Xiao Ye Zhen's enthusiasm, in fact, hiding in Ye Xun's arms, he couldn't feel cold at all, because Ye Xun had already used internal force to protect him.

Listening to his son's question, Ye Xun smiled slightly and said, "Remember, these are your armies, and Yafu is only temporarily in charge, and after you take charge of the government, Yafu will personally hand them over to you."

Listening to Ye Xun's words, Xiao Ye Zhen's face couldn't help but become excited, and he said happily: "With the army trained by Ya Father, is our Ming Dynasty fighting all over the world without an opponent?" ”

Ye Xun touched his son's little head, and said warmly: "Father Ya also wants to tell you a word, if you are warlike, you will die, and if you forget the war, you will be dangerous, if you don't have to do it, don't start the war lightly, because war not only kills people, but also consumes a lot of manpower and material resources, and sometimes a good strategy will work better than an army of 100,000."

Xiao Yezhen nodded thoughtfully, and then asked, "Then why does Yafu still want to fight North Korea?" Wouldn't it be good to make a ploy and let them fight themselves? ”

This kid can think of this, it's really in vain that he has worked hard to cultivate him.

"Before you were born, the Father had a great time for them to fight, and now it's time for us to reap"

It's already good for my son to think of this, but something too shady can't be said to him, he's still a kid after all.

Turning his head to Cao Wenzhao on the side, he asked, "What's going on in North Korea?" ”

"Father-in-law, rest assured, although Huang Taiji has captured a lot of Korean strong men, but the combat effectiveness of these people is not worth mentioning at all, and under the propaganda of our army scouts, the captured strong men have begun to flee in large numbers, at this time it is the middle of winter, and the Korean strong men are hiding in the mountains, and only the Jurchen manpower is not enough to do anything."

In order to pacify the last battle of the Jurchens, Cao Wenzhao did a lot of homework, answering Ye Xun's questions, and talking eloquently like a few family treasures.

Finally, he asked, "When does my father-in-law plan to send troops?" ”

"Huh! There is no hurry, the weather is too cold for sending troops, we just need to maintain a high-pressure situation"

It has to be said that Liaodong's harvest in recent years has been good, and the northern region is already rich in land and resources, and after a large area of land reclamation, countless fertile fields have been added, and in addition to the small population in the north, a large amount of military rations have been reserved for the army within a few years.

But this is not enough, after the pacification of the Jurchens, the North Korean side will definitely need a large amount of food.

It's not how kind Ye Xun is to help the Korean people, but Ye Xun plans to set up a capital division in North Korea to govern, and as for the Korean royal family, they will all die honorably in the war, in other words, Ye Xun is ready to put North Korea into the Ming Dynasty.

In this way, the grain and grass in Liaodong alone will definitely not be enough, and it must be transferred from Jiangnan, so Ye Xun is not in a hurry to send troops.

After returning to the camp, Xiao Yezhen rested for a while, and then pestered Komur again to take him to the barracks to wander around.

As soon as Xiao Yezhen went out, the guards sent a report from the capital.

When I opened it, it turned out to be sent by Japan, and the letter said that the Emperor of the Nine Tails had fully agreed to Ye Xun's conditions, and the children selected to study in the Ming Dynasty also included Yun Niang's children.

In fact, until now, the Nine Tails have not figured out who Yun Niang's son is, after all, Ye Xun's fake eunuch is just a legend, he just feels that Ye Xun is very concerned about that child.

As Ye Xun has more and more children, there are more and more rumors about whether Ye Xun is a eunuch or not, but because of the high pressure of Xichang and Jinyiwei, no one dares to talk about it in the open, but no matter how powerful Xichang and Jinyiwei are, they can't stop the mouths of the people of the world.

Therefore, this matter was also regarded as a joke in the mouths of the high-ranking officials of other vassal states.

Yun Niang's child is only six years old, so let him leave his mother with such a child, and the little devil of the Nine Tails can make it, but Ye Xun can't.

There was silence for a moment with this report, and suddenly the ground lit up in front of him, and an idea came to his mind again.

The Tokugawa shogunate is done with calves, and Ono has also been driven to the South Seas to be a pirate, so it seems that the island of Japan has been a little too depressed recently, right?

What would it be like if Huang Taiji fled to Japan?

Thinking of this, the corners of Ye Xun's mouth couldn't help but flash a cold smile.

It is not far from Korea to Japan, but it is necessary to take the sea route, and the sea has been under the absolute control of the Ming fleet, so it is too easy to make an escape route for Huang Taiji, and at the same time, the Jingying people who were originally scheduled to attack Huang Taiji by sea can also be withdrawn, which virtually saves a lot of expenses.

Thinking about it, Ye Xun's brows furrowed again, because according to his previous thoughts, he wanted that son to sit on the throne of the emperor, and now that he thinks about it, it seems a little too much.

Let's not talk about how many opposition forces there are in Japan, if Huang Taiji is really put in Japan, there will definitely be no peace on the Japanese island, and his son will not have a strong arm over there, which is too dangerous.

It's really not good, let's let their mother and son go to Jiangnan first!

After making up his mind, Ye Xun's eyes gradually became firm.

"Come on, pass on Sun Dong!" ...
