Volume 6 Chapter 26 Liaodong is fully restored

Huang Taiji was defeated and fled, the Mongolian soldiers in Shengjing City were also frightened and scattered, a great war ended in a hurry, the Ming army won a complete victory, and won the capital of Houjin in one fell swoop, and Liaodong was just around the corner.

Zhu Cijiong was not dazzled by the joy of victory, he was most concerned about the casualties of the Ming soldiers, the statistical results were quickly presented, the Tianxiong Army, the Qin Army, the Dongjiang Army and the First Army of the Praetorian Guard Army were all fine, the number of dead was less than one percent, but there were more wounded, the Guanning Army was miserable, the number of dead reached more than 58,000 people, and the rest were basically seriously injured, and less than one could move!

The Guanning army suffered such heavy casualties that Zhu Cijiong was not even in the mood to eat breakfast, so he hurriedly drank a few sips of porridge and rushed to the Guanning army camp with Sun Chengzong and a group of entourage.

The camp of the Guanning army was full of wounded soldiers at this time, there were painful moans everywhere, and even the soldiers standing guard and patrolling the camp were covered with bloody white cloths everywhere, the more Zhu Cijiong looked at it, the more heavy his mood became, they were all brave soldiers of the Ming Dynasty, what could he do for them?

He was pondering, but Cao Wenzhao was supported by Cao Bianjiao and led a few generals to greet him, and seeing that Cao Wenzhao and others were about to kneel and salute, he hurriedly raised his hand and said, "All generals are exempt." ”

Cao Wenzhao hurriedly arched his hand and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty." ”

Zhu Cijiong sighed and said: "I want to thank you, if it weren't for your desperate fight to repel the main force of Jiannu, I am afraid this battle would not be so easy to win." ”

Cao Wenzhao was flattered and moved: "Your Majesty, this is the duty of the ministers, and it should not be praised like this." ”

Zhu Cijiong said firmly: "What deserves to be deserved, meritorious service must be rewarded, these will be talked about later, take me to see the seriously injured soldiers first." ”

Cao Wenzhao was stunned when he heard this, he didn't know where to take the emperor to, he was basically seriously injured, and the lightly injured were standing guard and patrolling. He thought about it, and simply took Zhu Cijiong directly to the nearest military tents.

Cao Bianjiao gently opened the curtain of the military tent in front, and a strong smell of traditional Chinese medicine mixed with the smell of blood and sweat rushed towards him, Zhu Cijiong held back his nausea and pretended to be casual and walked to the door curtain to take a look, the military tent of ten people only lay four or five people, which was quite spacious, but the people lying down were more terrifying, basically covered with white cloth, bleeding everywhere, and they were all lying there groaning in delirium.

After looking at a few tents, they were basically like this, Zhu Cijiong couldn't help frowning, turned his head and asked Cao Wenzhao: "Why don't you even have a person to take care of, what if they want to drink water and eat?" ”

Cao Wenzhao replied with embarrassment: "This, Weichen, no one, everyone who can move has stood guard and patrolled." ”

Zhu Cijiong thought for a while, shook his head and said: "This can't be done, the weather is so hot, the military tent is so stuffy, it will suffocate people, pass the decree, let all the First Legion of the Praetorian Guard come over, carry them all to the city, find some shady courtyards to settle down, and then leave 40,000 people to take care of them." ”

A Jinyi guard general in the back team responded to the order, and Cao Wenzhao was moved and said: "Thank you emperor, thank you emperor." ”

Zhu Cijiong waved his hand and said in a low voice: "Take me to see the fallen soldiers." ”

Cao Wenzhao hesitated when he heard this, but finally gritted his teeth and walked to the right side of the camp with Zhu Cijiong, and walked for about a quarter of an hour before coming to the outside of the camp.

I saw rows and rows of corpses on the wide plain outside the camp, afraid that they were not a few miles wide, and they stretched forward for nearly a mile, giving people the feeling that they could not see their heads at a glance.

Looking at the rows of mutilated corpses in front of him, Zhu Cijiong was shocked and speechless, only felt a sour nose, and tears couldn't stop coming out.

Everyone was silent for a while, Sun Chengzong was the first to come back to his senses, he wiped the tears on his face, and reminded softly: "Your Majesty, this weather is too hot, I'm afraid it's not okay to keep doing this, you have to put it into the ground as soon as possible." ”

Zhu Cijiong looked at him blankly when he heard this, and then turned to look at Cao Wenzhao, he really didn't know what to say, the seriously wounded people in the camp couldn't move, how could they bury the corpses.

Sure enough, when Cao Wenzhao saw the emperor looking at him, he looked embarrassed on the horse, and said hesitantly: "Your Majesty, this, this, the Guanning army can move less than a thousand people now, this battlefield is still cleaned up by General Qin, there are countless horse corpses and Jiannu corpses in the distance, we can't clean them up, to bury so many soldiers, I'm afraid, I'm afraid I'm afraid ......."

As soon as Zhu Cijiong heard the word 'help', he immediately had an idea, he looked back at the endless camp, and decisively ordered: "Pass the decree, the Guanning Army, the Tianxiong Army and the First Legion of the Praetorian Guard Army will move into the city immediately, the Qin Army and the Dongjiang Army will move to the city wall and set up camp, and the wooden Shan of the camp will not be demolished, let the Qin Army and the Dongjiang Army bury the fallen soldiers in the afternoon, each soldier must be buried separately, write down their names, and make tombstones for them when the time comes, and this camp will be changed to the Liaodong Martyrs Cemetery in the future. After the war, take a good rest and let their relatives have a place to pay their respects. “

When everyone heard this, they were all moved, and couldn't help but praise the emperor's wisdom, Zhu Cijiong was immune to these, and when everyone was silent, he asked with concern: "What about General Zhao?" “

Cao Wenzhao hurriedly replied: "Bianjiao has already moved him back to the camp. “

Zhu Cijiong nodded when he heard this: "Well, there is no way for other soldiers to follow the simple as soon as possible, but General Zhao must be buried thickly, so bury him in the center of the mausoleum." “

Everyone respectfully agreed, and Zhu Cijiong didn't stay long, and after returning to the imperial tent to deal with some trivial matters, he moved into Shengjing City with the army.

After this battle, Liaodong can be said to have been decided, only the two small cities of Tielingwei and Liaohaiwei have not been recovered, Zhu Cijiong is not in a hurry, after this battle, the army must rest, the wounded also need time to recover, and the battlefield must also be cleaned, such a hot day, a little carelessness will cause a plague, and then the trouble will be big.

The army is resting, Zhu Cijiong is not idle, first of all, it is natural to deal with the matter of rewards and pensions, the soldiers are fighting bloodily for the Ming Dynasty, if the rewards and pensions are delayed, the impact on morale will be great, so Zhu Cijiong has not dragged for a moment, as soon as the military merits of each army are reported, they will immediately send fast horses to inform the capital, and immediately send the silver over. As for the bereavement pensions of the fallen soldiers, it was decreed that the military department and the household department should handle it immediately, and the bereavement pensions must be paid to the families of the fallen soldiers within one month.

Also, this Shengjing Shengjing, Zhu Cijiong felt how awkward it was, so he simply ordered Shengjing to be renamed Guanning directly to commemorate the fallen soldiers of the Guanning Army, and at the same time commend the heroic performance of the Guanning Army in this battle.

After the reward and pension, the next thing is to supplement the battle damage, the Ming Dynasty is not to finish fighting Liaodong, Zhu Cijiong's ambition has been hooked, and in the future, he will expand his territory and colonize overseas, and the battle will naturally be indispensable, so this army must be replenished in time if it has battle losses.

As for the problem of the source of soldiers, Zhu Cijiong doesn't have to worry about it, there are countless guards in Liaodong, Shandong and Beizhili, as long as the salary is paid, there is no problem of not being able to recruit people, and this day the Xiong Army, the Guanning Army and the First Legion of the Janissary Army are all first-class legions of the Ming Dynasty, and the salary and treatment are several times higher than that of ordinary soldiers, and the Qin Army and the Dongjiang Army are also the second-class legions of the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Cijiong saw that so many guards were going to stuff people here, so how could it be done, this is my elite corps, it is not something that can be entered casually, and in the end he simply sent the generals of each legion to the various guard posts to personally select them, and one general was in charge of one guard post, but it was not much delay, and in less than a month, the battle damage was replenished.

In the end, this propaganda naturally had to keep up, Zhu Cijiong called Chen Yutai to him again, and asked him to come to an article "Guanning Iron Cavalry", mainly about the heroic performance of the Guanning Legion in this Liaodong War, and he also specially instructed Chen Yutai to blow it appropriately, which probably means that you Jiannu is not a cow, and as a result, all the elites were gathered, and even a second-class legion of the Ming Dynasty could not help it, and as soon as the reinforcements of the Praetorian Guard arrived, they were immediately defeated and fled, which shows how powerful the army of the Ming Dynasty is, and Jiannu will brag!

When Chen Yutai heard this, he rolled his eyes, obviously you were bragging, and you said that others would brag! Of course, no matter how Zhu Cijiong brags, he has to write it seriously, who calls someone the emperor.

After resting for a month, Zhu Cijiong finally couldn't sit still, and he summoned the commanders of the various legions and Sun Chengzong to discuss the next battle plan.

First of all, it is a question of whether to attack Jianzhou, after all, Houjin has developed from Jianzhou, if they are left alone, maybe they will rush to Liaodong again to make trouble.

For this problem, the commanders of the legions are naturally shouted and beaten by everyone, the so-called elimination of evil, this Jiannu has no humanity, has wreaked havoc in Liaodong for so many years, and the common people in Liaodong are almost finished, so it is natural to destroy them in order to relieve the hatred in their hearts.

However, Sun Chengzong, the prince of Zhenguo, did not approve of attacking Jianzhou immediately, and his reasons were very good. The damage of Jiannu in this Liaodong War was not very large, most of the Ming army annihilated were servant Mongolian soldiers, and the real Jurchen soldiers did not actually eliminate much, and it is conservatively estimated that there are at least 100,000 troops under Huang Taiji's hands. Moreover, the terrain near Jianzhou is very complicated, full of deep mountains and dense forests, people who are not familiar with it will get lost when they walk in, hundreds of thousands of troops drive in, not to mention the difficulty of marching, it is very likely that the main force of Jiannu will not be found at all. When the time comes, it will be broken by Jiannu and repeat the tragedy of Salhu's defeat.

Therefore, he suggested that the fortress should be advanced, step by step, and the fortress should be repaired to Jianzhou City all the way to see what tricks Huang Taiji could play!

Zhu Cijiong hesitated again and again, but still adopted Sun Chengzong's suggestion, although it costs both time and silver, but it is quite safe, the Ming Dynasty is not short of time and silver now, if the enemy rushes in and finally eats the defeat, then the gain outweighs the loss, and it is simply to repair the bunker directly.

Since it was decided to advance the fortress, the attack on Jianzhou was not within the scope of consideration in this Liaodong War, and the rest was to recover the two cities of Tielingwei and Liaohaiwei.

These two cities are not big cities, even worse than Jinzhou Wei and Fuzhou Wei, Zhu Cijiong didn't bother to mobilize the people to run over to attack in person, and directly let the Qin Army and the Dongjiang Army each legion be responsible for one, and the Tianxiong Army also followed the past to deal with it in the center to prevent Huang Taiji from making any moths, as for the Guanning Army and the First Army of the Praetorian Guard, they stayed in Guanning City to prevent Huang Taiji from counterattacking.

What Zhu Cijiong didn't expect was that Sun Chuanting sent a report the next afternoon, and the Tieling guards fled in despair; The next night, Mao Wenlong sent another report that the Liaohai guards abandoned the city and fled!

Zhu Cijiong was stunned, this, this, this, Liaodong has all been recovered? How much pain, how much shame...... Houjin is also expected to run away from the wind!

In fact, it is not surprising that Tielingwei and Liaohaiwei can have many defenders, and the reason why they don't leave is just a fluke, hoping that the Ming army will capture Shengjing, and they will not fight north. Now that the Ming army is here, they will naturally run away, and if they don't run, they will die!

Just when Zhu Cijiong was dumbfounded, something happened that surprised him even more: the long-lost voice of the system beauty actually appeared in his mind again!
