Chapter 745: The countdown begins
"Therefore, although Ma Shilang is in the prime of life, his career can be regarded as coming to an end today." In the end, Huang You came to this conclusion.
"This time, that time!" Putting aside the prophetic prescience of the traverser, Sun Yuan felt that Huang You and Fu Shan still had their historical limitations, and it was inconvenient for him to speak clearly with them, so he said: "This matter is so decided,." Execution is it. ”
The next day, Sun Yuan didn't bother to stay in Nanjing any longer, so he left all the affairs here to Fu Shan, and returned to Nantong with his mother and family.
There are still many things to do in the military town, and there is no room for delay.
The Zheng family reminded Sun Yuan of the advance layout for the future big changes, although Fujian and Yangzhou towns were hiding in the rear to develop, and they had the intention of throwing Nanjing's defense to Nanjing in the front.
But in the modern people's prophet of that period of history, Sun Yuan knew that in the future, although he was in front of Liu Zeqing and Gao Jie. But Gao Jie died early, and his team dispersed after his death. And when Liu Zeqing did not fire a single arrow when the Qing troops went south, Han Furui, who was studying in later generations, directly abandoned his troops and fled, leaving a large area of the country to the invaders. Speaking of which, Liu and Han are both military governors of Shandong, and they are doing the same thing, which is really an orderly inheritance.
As soon as Liu Zeqing was defeated, the town of Yangzhou was inevitably exposed to the offensive of Dolgon's army, and there was no way out.
Therefore, Sun Yuan's top priority now is to strengthen the army.
The army now has 11,000 main soldiers, and will have the strength to fight with Dorgon in the future. Still, there are some problems. After all, the number of troops is too small, and the quality of the auxiliary troops is still poor, and the degree of specialization is not enough, so it cannot be used as a reserve force. Supplies for the troops also need to be stockpiled in advance, and these take a long time.
As for the logistical problems, there are also many problems, the output of the arsenal is also limited, and the production capacity needs to be increased.
After returning to Nantong, Dafang happened to be there to prepare for an attack on the Yellow Sea.
Sun Yuan instructed Fang Wei that this battle actually didn't need to be fought on a large scale, and the cost of fighting such a thing was too great, and the military town's finances could no longer afford it. This time, only a small number of troops were dispatched to constantly harass the Zheng family. At an appropriate time, the army can also go around the Taiwan Strait to put a little pressure on the Zheng family, and it is necessary to be reasonable, evidence-based, and restrained, so as to make the Zheng family feel uncomfortable, but also not to let them jump over the wall in a hurry.
Dafang said: "The general can rest assured, isn't it just to learn piracy, let's pick the Zheng family's ship at sea to rob."
。 If you grab it, you will run, anyway, if it is good, you will go up, and if it is not good, you will withdraw. ”
"The children can be taught." Sun Yuan was greatly pleased: "Also, on the shipyard of Chongming Shasuo, the big warship doesn't need to be built to stop first." "All the resources of the military town should be freed up for military operations in the coming year.
Although I couldn't understand it, Dafang still agreed very simply.
Today's Yangzhou Town mainly governs Taixing, Tongzhou, Rugao and Chongming, and Sun Yuan does not have a fixed official residence, so he stays on the edge of Nantong for a longer time.
After coming back this time, he began to run around here, began to train auxiliaries and reserve troops, and was busy for more than a month before he could be considered a little eyebrow-raising. Among them, Fei Hong is mainly responsible for training recruits and losing weight.
The autumn breeze was bleak, Sun Yuan was in the house in Nantong this day, looking at the wrinkles on Fei Hong's forehead, he couldn't help but sigh: "Old Fei, you have aged a lot in the past few years." This time, if it weren't for you, I'm afraid I would have been tired a long time ago, and it would have been really hard for you. ”
Fei Hong said: "Serving the general is what his subordinates should do, this person, if he doesn't do things, he will grow old quickly." This year, the general didn't need Fei Hong to go on the expedition, and I was a little disappointed. ”
Sun Yuan said with a smile: "Lao Fei, you are a very safe person, with you at home, my heart is also solid." ”
As he was talking, Guan Tao ran in with a burden: "General, general, great joy." ”
"Oh, it turned out to be the boss in charge, speaking of which, I am worried when I see you now, I won't come to ask for money again, right?" Sun Yuan asked with a smile.
"No, no, no, this time I didn't ask the general for money, but sent money to the general." After speaking, Guan Tao opened the package in his hand, and with a bang, he poured a bunch of things on Sun Yuan's big case.
Huang Cancan, looking at it, it was a pile of newly minted copper coins.
Sun Yuan grabbed one and looked at it, and suddenly it was Chongzhen Tongbao, no need to ask, it was the private money cast by the Ningxiang Army.
"Boss, didn't you get this money out earlier?"
Guan Tao shook his head: "It was already made, but now it has begun to become popular in the Jiangnan market, and the last time I got the general's order, the villain began to do this, and now it is going very smoothly."
。 ”
It turned out that when Sun Yuan decided to lay out for next year, he decided to start issuing private money with great fanfare, and it has been a month now.
Fei Hong was taken aback: "General, let's mint private money, if someone reports to the imperial court, there must be trouble." ”
"What are you afraid of, just be bold and do it." Hehe, the Beijing government can't support it for a few months, and when the New Year is over, it's our warriors who have the final say. Sun Yuan sneered: "If someone from above comes to check, just drive it away." Lao Tzu doesn't believe it, who can do anything to my Sun Yuan, send Jinyiwei to arrest me, I'm really impatient. ”
"Great, great!" Guan Tao cheered, as a businessman, he naturally knew that the most profitable business in the world was to make money directly: "The general has finally figured it out, and my Ningxiang Army will no longer have to worry about money in the future." In my opinion, the general is still too late. ”
As he spoke, he couldn't help complaining: "The general doesn't know what he thought back then, and we have suffered for so many years." ”
Sun Yuandao: "It's still the same sentence, this time and that time, this situation is going to change." ”
Indeed, the situation has changed.
Within a few days, an emergency report came to Yangzhou, which was the domestic news during this time.
It's news, but it's old news because of poor transportation and communication restrictions.
The Tang Newspaper carried an earth-shattering news that Li Zicheng had entered Shaanxi, and Sun Chuanting's Shaanxi army had been annihilated.
"After Li Zicheng incorporated the 5th Battalion of Gezuo and Luo Rucai's troops, he stabilized the rear and finally freed up his hands to advance north." Sun Yuan sighed and handed the Tang newspaper in hand to Fei Hong, and couldn't help but feel a little bored in his heart.
It's a pity, it's a pity that the last time he conquered Liu Chao and entered Henan to participate in the war, it was because he had too much time delayed in Yongcheng and couldn't catch up with the battle of Zhuxian Town, so that he couldn't eliminate Li Zicheng's living force, and he couldn't find an opponent in Huguang and Henan.
I, Sun Yuan, wanted to change this tragic history, but in the end, manpower was more than a few days.
How!
The countdown to the demise of the Beijing government of the Ming Dynasty has officially begun.
