"Father!" Mao Chenglu, who was angry, strode into the signing room of Mao Wenlong, the chief soldier of Dongjiang Town, and directly hugged his fists and saluted. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

The weather is getting warmer, the people on Phi Island are stable, a large number of people are diverted to Kuandian and Tieshan, Yizhou area, now the strength of Dongjiang Town is getting stronger, there are 50,000 or 60,000 soldiers to report to the soldiers, in fact, there are more than 20,000 people, although there are not many iron armor, and the soldiers' weapons are not sophisticated enough, but with 200 to 20,000 people, the development time is only less than two years, which is really a pretty good result.

Now as far as the vast dense forest of Kuandian, to the islands around Changsheng Island in the west, to the peninsula area of Lushun, and then to Zhenjiang and Tangzhan area, all of which are controlled or semi-controlled by the Dongjiang River.

In terms of the whole situation, Dongjiang has gone from a small base built by a few hundred men to a huge military town that controls dozens of islands and the coastal areas of southern Liaoning, and can threaten the core area of the Houjin family from the Kuandian area.

Mao Wenlong was also named the former general of the conquest by the Apocalypse, the chief officer of the Pingliao army, and in terms of the general army sequence, he was already in the first grade of the Ming general army, and then he could only be knighted.

Although the age has reached the age of approaching old age, Mao Wenlong's back is straight, his hair is gray, the two are awe-inspiring, more than 1,000 generals in Dongjiang Town, tens of thousands of soldiers, and hundreds of thousands of Liao people in the core area rely on him to live, a few years, a small garrison to the point where it is now, since it has also made Mao Wenlong's temperament have changed a lot, he is no longer the ordinary middle-level officer who was a little cowardly when Zhang Han first arrived in Liaodong.

"What's going on?" Mao Wenlong is writing the Dongjiang Tang Newspaper, and the general marshal will not do this kind of writing and ink work himself, all of them are entrusted to the staff master, and Mao Wenlong has always been a good writer, and many Tang newspapers are from his own hands.

"Yuan Junmen has sent people to the island."

"Oh?" Mao Wenlong's eyes were condensed, and an invisible aura permeated.

"Chen and Liangce have been in contact with the people sent by the military gate, which is to review the military exploits reported by Manpu and Changcheng last year."

Mao Wenlong sighed lightly, put the pen in his hand, and said: "This duke no longer supports my Dongjiang intention back then, and it is no longer suitable to stay in the Dengfu position." ”

The Yuan Junmen mentioned by Mao Chenglu and Mao Wenlong is Yuan Keli, and it is also an important part of Xiong Tingbi's so-called tripartite arrangement, the governor's military gate of Denglai First Ring.

Since Yuan Keli took charge of Denglai, a large number of sailors and soldiers have been trained in the past few years, with Mao Wenlong as the general soldier of the Dongjiang River, and Shen Yourong as the general soldier of Dengzhen......

The evidence is also very simple, the sailor and Shen Yourong and other departments are not Mao Wenlong's subordinates, if Zhang Pan, the general, is Mao's henchman, Shen Yourong and other departments are Mao Wenlong's inability to command, and the fan war between Mao and Yuan in later generations, many details have not been studied too deeply, such as Mao's supporters to investigate the slaughter of Juehua Island, in fact, Juehua is not Yuan Chonghuan's defense area, and Yuan's body cannot be pursued if he wants to be investigated, and Mao Wenlong's military exploits, a series of military exploits three years after the Apocalypse are counted on Mao's head, This is, of course, also unfair. Thousands of miles of sea frontiers, several soldiers and horses in Zhuzhen, how could it be Mao Wenlong's promotion alone? In a certain novel, it is said that Mao Wenlong and Dongjiang Town have not been subject to the jurisdiction and promotion of the governor of Denglai, and they have not accepted civilian officials to supervise the army, so their military exploits are not counted on Denglai's head...... This is also nonsense, Mao Wenlong and Dongjiang Town are very clearly subordinate to the governor of Denglai, Yuan Keli, who has jurisdiction to promote the transfer, which is a fact beyond doubt.

And Yuan Keli's support for Dongjiang Town is also sparing no effort, before the Dongjiang Chuli even opened the town, Denglai's material support has not stopped, under the premise that the imperial court has not paid so far, hundreds of thousands of people and tens of thousands of soldiers eat food, as well as weapons and armor Mao Wenlong of course can not be conjured out empty-handed, even if the imperial court acquiesces in its opening of the horse market trade can not be supported, not to mention that the silver of the horse market trade has not been used until now, a large number of Denglai merchants to Phi Island to trade, of course, can not be separated from the support of the governor of Denglai.

It can be said that Yuan Keli is a relatively neglected figure, and he is not very bright among the stars in the late Ming Dynasty, but his value should not be ignored in any case.

"What is my father going to do?" Mao Chenglu's face was loosened, revealing a happy look.

"Wait."

Mao Wenlong calmed down and continued to write the Tang Newspaper.

"Pingliao General Military Officer Wen Longbao: Staff General Yi Chenghui went to the Xianning camp to kill the thief Lin Maochun and others to the city of Haizhou, and each of them captured a total of 15 Zhenyi, 18 Yi, captured the spy Ma Chenglin and other Li Yongfang'er, and took back more than 5,300 refugees including Wang Zhongju."

"Pingliao General Military Officer Wenlong reported: Send the messenger to capture 130 people, go to Guanglu Shicheng Island, drown 5 people in the 2nd boat Yi, and escape by night in Dengcheng, 20 people will be killed and wounded, and only 11 people will be killed."

"Pingliao General Military Officer Wenlong reported: Dong Guzhai won a great victory, 330 ranks, and captured 4 people, 94 horses, and 230 pieces of equipment."

Mao Wenlong wrote one, Mao Chenglu just looked at one, and gradually saw some flavor.

Some of these war reports were written in the second half of last year and some in the first half of this year, and some of them escaped due to lax defense in Dengzhou, and there were also battles fought in such a pure Dongjiang town as Dong Guzhai, and the meaning of them is obvious.

In the second half of last year, because of Mao Wenlong's many good news, although there were many battle reports that called Yousi and felt too ridiculous, he also had some really sure good news in his hands, such as Dong Guzhai This time, Zhenyi's head does have more than 300 levels, and it has been sent to Sun Chengzong, the governor of Liaodong, and when the inspection is completed, this battle achievement will be confirmed.

Last year, the Emperor of the Apocalypse twice sent money to reward Dongjiang Town, of course, the silver of the Apocalypse was not given in vain, it was almost the reward for the military exploits of Dongjiang Town, and it was estimated that the number would be only a lot more this year.

Mao Chenglu praised: "Father is really a last resort. ”

"Hmph." Mao Wenlong snorted coldly and said: "Yuan Junmen is still very respectful, and his moderation has not been violated. But he shouldn't have listened to the villain sending people to investigate the accounts of the Dongjiang River and report the merits of the pond. If so, where is the prestige of the general, and how can he control his subordinates? ”

Mao Wenlong didn't say all the words, even in front of his own son's henchmen, it was not easy to say.

He thinks that Yuan Keli's prestige is too high in Denglai and Dongjiang, and the dispatch of generals such as Zhang Pan and Shen Yourong is very calm, and if this continues, Dongjiang Town will not be completely in his own hands. Whether it is out of the overall situation or selfish considerations, Mao Wenlong hopes to have a relatively weak governor of Denglai.

In other words, with the rise of strength, coupled with the fact that Dongjiang Town is isolated overseas, and the imperial court does not pay salaries, allowing the military town to seek its own sources of wealth, Mao Wenlong has become the only chief military officer in the Ming Dynasty towns who has both financial and military power in his hands, and his ambition will also swell with the expansion of strength, Mao Wenlong has found it difficult to accept that the civilian officials are pointing fingers at his head, even Yuan Keli, who has been supporting him, must be taken away.

"Father, I'm afraid it's not okay to do that." Mao Chenglu frowned and said, "Even if the imperial court understands it, it will not take Yuan someone down." ”

"Besides......" Mao Chenglu hesitated for a moment and said: "Recently, the wind in the DPRK has been quite bad, and many people say that the Wei Gonggong Party and the Donglin Party are afraid that they will fight to the death. If we target Yuan at this time, and the Donglin Party thinks that we are on the side of Wei Gonggong, it will not be good. ”

"This is a matter that the commander has his own weight." Mao Wenlong said: "There are other things, leave it to your camera to do." ”

"Father, please command."

……

"Ma Wu has recovered, and now he will go back to Lizhuang and give him a month's leave, which is a rare long vacation in our and Yusheng's merchant army."

Zhao Lide sat and read the latest He Yusheng internal newspaper, Yang Er, Yang Yi, Cheng Fang, Xu Ming and others were either sitting or standing, and the expressions on everyone's faces were relaxed and happy, after all, they had been with Ma Wu and others for half a year, and they were relieved to hear that this brother was safe and sound.

Wen Zhongfa let out a sigh, rubbed his face, and said, "At the beginning, Ma Wu and the others rushed out to attract attention and distract the forces on the enemy's periphery, and second, they wanted them to go and see what the situation was on the grassland. Who knows that Donglu will bite tightly, this walk is actually a few months, and go around and around, to the hometown of Daningwei, until the old Zhaozhou in the Liaoyuan Dynasty, and from the Xing'an Mountains to the Balhu Department, and then along the Krulun River to Mobei, this is really unexpected. ”

The bald head took a sip and said, "Damn, they are beautiful in Ma Wu this time, and this experience is enough for the teaching materials." ”

"The military secretary must ask them to write down their experience, and in the future, it is very likely that there will be cavalry battles for thousands of miles, how to prevent the cold, how to replenish supplies in the enemy's territory, how to replenish war horses, how to place wounded and sick soldiers, how to reconnoitre, how to climb mountains and mountains, these things are not simple."

Wen Zhongfa's words are not lacking in envy, indeed, the experience of Ma Wu and others is too legendary.

"If Lao Tzu had been ......" The bald man said half of his words, and then he took it back in a dejected manner: "Lao Tzu would not have led cavalry." ”

"Zhang Xuwen and others went to Taiwan, and they all had appointments."

"The 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 5th, 6th, and 9th infantry regiments, the second cavalry regiment, the lancer regiment, and the first artillery regiment, a total of nine regiments, nearly 30,000 soldiers were transferred to the front line of the Karaqin Department, and the main forces were gathered on the line from Jining Fort to Xinghe Fort and Shangyi Fort."

The bald man gloated and said, "This time, Bai Hong Dataiji is going to pee his pants." ”
