797 Rebellion
The war machine doesn't stop easily once it's running, and it doesn't easily run again once it stops, because it's too heavy and too heavy.
From the moment Xiao Ruxun decided to turn it on, the machine would keep running until it achieved its goal.
While mobilizing the army, Xiao Ruxun did not forget to do something else.
The time to fight north was very tight before, and Xiao Ruxun didn't think about it, so he hurriedly took a boat to the north, and left his Blackwater troops in Burma, but Shen always calculated.
Now that I think about it, if I had been more careful at that time, and brought some of the Blackwater troops who had made great achievements in Luzon to the Beijing Division, and had a more defensive heart, I don't think I would have faced such a situation in the future.
On the way to politics, I am still relatively immature.
Xiao Ruxun reflected.
Shen has always used Jinyi Wei to hurt him very badly, and now, Xiao Ruxun also wants to let the Heishui under his command show his strength, instead of lying in a place like Luzon all the time.
The first official task given to Heishui by Xiao Ruxun was to rebel, and the goal was to go north to conquer the first line of defense that Shen had always encountered.
Liu Wei of Sichuan, Deng Zilong of Yunnan, and Admiral Chen Lu, who was active in Fujian and Guangdong, and Cen Dalu, the leader of the wolf soldiers, who also fought side by side and formed a deep friendship.
If nothing else, these four forces will become the first line of defense to hinder their northward movement, and Xiao Ruxun's northward route is basically sea and land, and it is imperative for hundreds of thousands of troops to be divided into two or three routes.
Needless to say, after solving the Guangdong Naval Division, Shen has always had no strength comparable to the Zhennan Military Naval Division at sea, and the entire coastal area will be Xiao Ruxun's sphere of influence.
Xiao Ruxun can attack the coastal areas with a huge sailor at any time, just like the original widow, Shen has always had no power to fight back, and Xiao Ruxun will not give him the opportunity to form a sailor.
The shipyards of the Ming army are basically in the Jiangnan region, as long as Xiao Ruxun moves his troops north, he will inevitably take the main ports first, and then attack the interior, master the southeast coastal areas, and grab Shen Zheng's money bag and snatch it.
This requires the Guangdong Navy Division and Chen Lan not to be his enemy, otherwise to kill the soldiers of the Guangdong Navy Division who had fought side by side with him, Xiao Ruxun is really a little unbearable, if they are willing to cooperate, it will be better.
It's the same with an attack by land, Yunnan is preparing to attack Burma, so a counterattack is imperative, and a battle must be fought here.
In terms of offensive routes, Xiao Ruxun plans to choose to take Siam and Vietnam to march into Guangxi, meet the wolf soldiers, and then go all the way to the north, with the naval division and the marine corps to sweep the entire southeast.
Let the sailor cut off the Yangtze River route and abolish the transportation of the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal, Shen has always been in a hurry, and when he dispatched troops, he directly swept his hometown, and raided his home in the name of eliminating rebellion, punishing adultery and eliminating evil, which could make him crazy.
The southeast is Shen Zheng's basic plate, abolishing his basic plate, Shen has always been paralyzed by half, without the support of Jiangnan Cao's grain transportation, how long can the north support natural and man-made disasters in recent years? How much food does he have in his hands to spend? How can the food of the Nine Sides be sustained?
At that time, Shen has always been short of food due to sudden attacks, so he must seek a decisive battle with his main force, and the last thing Xiao Ruxun is afraid of is a decisive battle, even if Shen has always transferred the Liaodong Iron Cavalry.
From a military point of view, Xiao Ruxun feels that the current Jiangnan is a broken net, which can be torn apart no matter how it is torn, and there are no elite troops that can be compared with the Zhennan Army, and it is normal to advance rapidly, and the one who can really fight with the Zhennan Army is the Frontier Army in the Nine Sides.
However, the relationship between these legions and Xiao Ruxun is not shallow.
So Xiao Ruxun personally wrote to Chen Luan, Deng Zilong and Liu Ling, as well as Cen Dalu, the leader of the wolf soldiers, knowing the benefits and disadvantages, and wrote to them about his experience and what Shen had always done, hoping that they could join him, set things right, and go on the Northern Expedition.
At the same time, it is also necessary to analyze the current situation for Chen Luan and them, which is the key.
Shen has always eradicated Xiao Ruxun is the first step, and eradicating Myanmar is the second step, so what about the third step?
It is to exclude dissidents and concentrate power, military power is the top priority, and these current high-ranking generals are either from the Battle of Ningxia or from the Battle of Korea, or from the Battle of Dongmuguo, and they have accumulated military merits in these major wars, and then they have been promoted.
These three battles were all commanded by Xiao Ruxun as the main general, and they were all inseparable from Xiao Ruxun, not to mention Chen Luan, Liu Ling, Deng Zilong and Cen Dalu all followed Xiao Ruxun in the Battle of Korea.
The main point that Xiao Ruxun wants to convince them is here.
The generals who have sprung up through these major battles have all been heard and used under Xiao Ruxun, cooperated with Xiao Ruxun, and fought side by side, and will inevitably become the object of jealousy of the imperial court.
Maybe I won't kill you now, it's because I need you, but if I, Xiao Ruxun, are dead, Myanmar is gone, and the court is no longer threatening, do you think they will do anything to you?
They will now want to appease you first, stabilize you, and when the time comes, then take away your positions and take away your military power, so that you will have no power to fight back.
Don't forget, you all have a handle in the hands of civilian officials, and it was not good to attack you in the face of your military exploits before, but after a long time, they turned out old accounts and came to you to settle accounts, and no one spoke to you at that time, how did you act?
Point out the relationship between the dead lips and the cold teeth, and then come back to reminisce with them.
My Northern Expedition this time is only to kill Shen Zhengyi, I don't want to kill each other with you, we are all brothers who have fought side by side on the battlefield, and now Shen has always gone against the grain and deposed His Majesty without doing any evil, his court is not the court we need to be loyal to at all, and His Majesty the Emperor we need to be loyal to is not the puppet of Shen Zheng now!
You have to recognize the essence of the incident, this war seems to be the contradiction between me and Shen, but in fact it is the contradiction between the military generals and the civilian officials, we have been suppressed by them for more than a hundred years, it's time to stand up and reproduce the glory of the Hongwu Yongle period, isn't it?
As long as you promise to work hand in hand with me, the two vast lands of Yunnan are at your fingertips, and on this basis, to march north, is there anything we can't do? Is there still an army in the whole of Jiangnan that can fight us?
Won't they fall from the wind? Is it still difficult to counterattack the Jingshi to rescue His Majesty? Is it still a dream for you to become famous? Is wealth still far away? Do you still need to look at the faces of civil officials and live cautiously?
The incendiary letter was carefully folded and handed over to the best of the Blackwater.
"It's top secret, if you can't get it to them and you're discovered, do you know what you're supposed to do?"
Xiao Ruxun looked at these elites.
They nodded together.
"Self-cutting, with the grace of Xie Shilang's life reconstruction!"
"If you live, there is no need to say much about glory and wealth, if you die, I will take good care of my family, wife and children, even if I die, I will arrange them in advance, there are only four words in a thousand words, cherish, rest assured!"
Several people immediately knelt on the ground.
"Yes!"
