Chapter 527: The Bulls Go Together
Shunming Chapter 527 Bulls go hand in hand
Early April. Shaanxi general Zhao Neng led 20,000 Denglai troops who had passed the Ming army's guards, and the generals led the army to surrender. When crossing the territory of Henan. Li Xianfeng, the governor of Shaanxi and Henan, gave him 8,000 Yu soldiers. The remaining vacancies will be reorganized after Zhao Neng goes to Shaanxi.
From Shandong to Shaanxi. That is, through Henan. It is also impossible to guarantee a complete logistical transport line. Even if there is a transshipment of the Yellow River Road. It's also too expensive.
Fortunately, Shanxi now has a wealthy businessman who is trembling and doesn't know how to behave with the big handsome. Hou Shan, the treasurer of the Lingshan Commercial Bank under the Department of Finance and Trade, rushed to Shanxi in early February. Quartermasters were deployed there.
Those wealthy merchants can mobilize a large amount of supplies. And the mountains and mountains are familiar with the way. After the Shaanxi army led by Zhao Neng passed through Shaanzhou. They were responsible for the rest of the military supply. According to the letter sent back by Zhao Neng Pegasus. These Jin merchants are doing very well.
And to a certain extent, to the intelligence before the army is responsible. These Jin merchants because of their business with Eastern and Western Mongolia. There are also those black market businesses with the Shaanxi government and thieves. I am familiar with the noodles of Shaanxi. It is inextricably linked to officials and various forces.
The Jin merchants were slaughtered in Pingyao, and they were already frightened. After that, I didn't think about finding some way to deal with Shandong. But the big tribes on the grassland were grasped by Shandong little by little. The provinces around Shanxi were gradually annexed by Shandong. They didn't have the slightest hint of rebellion. On the contrary, he began to worry about whether he would be liquidated after the world was calmed. If this Shandong is simply a force group, then it would be fine.
These warriors will always rely on the merchant's transfer and trade. Kejiao is also a business group. There is a huge amount of gold in his hands. It was also supported by the alliance of Fujian merchants and Huai merchants. This is a strong competitor to destroy the Jin merchants. There is no harm in Li Meng. Nothing hindered.
The Jin merchants, who were worried about being liquidated, suddenly appeared on the mountain and gave them a chance to watch. It was ecstatic. Those who can contribute and those who can't contribute have gone to help.
Except for intelligence. Help the Shandong Salt Gang system to contact various forces in the west. Persuade those hard-nosed officials to surrender. Having a good relationship with the remnants of the big clans of Dang, etc., etc., etc., really saved Shandong a lot of effort.
Zhao Neng's discord in Shaanxi is the Shaanxi-Henan governor Li Xianfeng. Although he also knew that it was the trust of the King of Qi. But this position still made him feel like he was on fire. Now Shandong's territory is only five provinces, and he alone is in charge of the two largest provinces.
Of course, now he has to be responsible for the logistics and supply of the two generals, Chen Liu and Zhao Neng. The unification of the two provinces is also for the purpose of unifying powers and responsibilities. But in such a dangerous position, who wants to crook his mouth in front of King Qi is a little unpredictable. That is the risk of the headkillers, and the result is that every day is not enough to be busy. I also have to give King Qi a succession. Said that he was in charge of two provinces. It's really a passover. Please ask the king of Qi to arrange the candidate for the governor of Shaanxi.
I don't care about Li Xianfeng's request at all. Early April. He himself is too busy to be busy. Chen Liu's troops had already advanced to Shuanggoukou, which was thirty miles away from Hanshui. Now the big camp is set up there. Prepare for Xiangyang's, fight.
Chen Liu, the commander-in-chief of the Central Plains Army, also wrote an urgent letter to Jinan. Ask the marshal to transfer sixteen pounder field guns over there. At least ten such guns are needed. Xiangyang City is a Xiongcheng in the world. The Shun army is not as straw as the Ming army. It's hard to trick the gates into opening them. According to the report of the spies who crossed the Han River to reconnoitre. Now outside the city of Xiangyang. It turned out to be an imitation of various offensives built in Shandong. A circle of fortifications and forts were built outside the city of Xiangyang. and the horse moats.
Deal with such a city defense. Spears and fire are obviously not going to be of much use: now. Chen Liu also figured it out. That can only be knocked with a cannon.
The Ordnance Manufacturing Bureau has opened a workshop in Nam Duong Province. Specially cast cannons for the Central Plains Army. The battle. I'm afraid I won't be able to fight a decisive battle. Nearly 70 artillery pieces and ammunition have also been loaded onto ships. Further strengthen the combat strength of the Chinese army.
Yanzhou and Dongchang in Shandong. South Zhili Xuzhou and Huai'an two prefectures. A total of 6,000 soldiers were trained. But these people were not there to supplement the Northern Soviet Army of Pingnan General Ma Gang. Instead, at the end of March, they were embarking in batches in Haizhou and Jiaozhou. It was transported to North Korea by the Zheng family's fleet. Replenish the Korean garrison.
According to the report sent by Wang Hai, which is dozens of pages long. After the instigation of the spies of the Shandong Salt Gang in Liaodong. More than 50,000 Han Chinese people in Liao entered northern Korea through various means.
This was also due to the fact that most of the forces of the Manchurian Tatars were concentrated in the west of Shengjing and Liaoyang to confront the Mongols. The control over the rest of Liaozhen was much looser. Moreover, many Jurchens are walking from this side towards Jilin and Ningguta again. It's said that it's unstable here. It's a place to go back to the old forest.
Such a situation. Naturally, the control of the following is also much looser. Hermes-Epitek's flight gradually became uncontrollable. For this
There is nothing new to do in the sea. It is to copy Shandong's method of Tuntian Grange. A large number of North Korean officials who had been associated with the Tatars. The family's property was confiscated. There have been a large number of displaced people in North Korea.
But these people can't make any waves at all. Immediately after that, it was forcibly incorporated into the Tuntian Grange. Han Chinese and Koreans are about one-to-four.
Grain produced by the tuntianhu in North Korea. except for the part that sustains them with food and clothing. All the rest were expropriated and taken away. Hermes-Epitek's production tasks were much easier. But the price of enjoying the support of the Korean tuntianhu is the service of the soldiers. Eighty percent of the young and strong people of Hermes-Epitek were incorporated into the village protection team and army of Tuntian Grange. They must use their own force to maintain their safety and situation.
In addition to the production of Tuntian Grange. Taxes and grain north of Seoul. The small court of the Joseon State was already beyond its control. These were forcibly requisitioned by the North Korean garrison. As a supplement to yourself.
Other words. Wang Hai was in addition to the 5,000 soldiers and horses he brought to Korea. It can also mobilize nearly 20,000 young people to fight. It's just a lack of adequate weapons and training. Organized sea freight from the New Year after the first month. The delivery of past materials and tools is the solution to this.
There are some things that make people laugh and cry in the report sent by Wang Hai. I don't know how. Those Han people were humane, and the Korean garrison was not an army sent by the imperial court. watched Wang Hai make such a big scene in North Korea. began to think about taking this strength for himself.
The Tartar Qing army captured the population of Guannai. Those who used to be of the same township and clan were arranged to farm in one place. Many people who came to join this time are also familiar with each other. Those who are ambitious are often the characters who speak with weight in the township. This initiative. It's really inciting.
But they think of the North Korean garrison as a little too simple. Wang Hai really didn't expect that the Han people, who had worked so hard to rescue from the Tartar Iron Cavalry, would actually rebel. Why did not rebel under the rule of the Tartars. I was rescued by myself. It's going to be messy.
Perhaps it was the Eight Banners of the Tartars that deterred these Han people greatly. And the waste of the Ming army made a deep impression on them. Perhaps they thought that the soldiers and horses of the Han people were all cowardly waste.
The riot was sudden. Several large tun farms work together. Rough training. And the armed Tuntian Grange guards attacked the edge of the barracks. Wang Hai didn't expect it at all. There was also no preparation. However, the secret sentry arranged in strict accordance with the wartime march was reported in time.
Wait for Han, when the rebel team is about to reach the edge of the fence. Two thousand men were ready for battle. While the others are almost ready. This time, the Korean garrison finally made these rebellious Han people realize what it means to be a strong army. Wang Hai, the North Korean garrison, had little compassion. Instead, let his subordinates let go and kill.
Sometimes you don't use force. It is impossible to subdue these ignorant villagers. The monster will not be plundered by the Manchu Tartars. No wonder no one is constantly being drawn into the Han Eight Banners and the Han Army.
Thousands died that night, and the Han people who were recruited from then on carried out the orders of the Jiaozhou battalion thoroughly. Don't dare to have any crooked thoughts anymore. Dare to complain. The so-called grace and power are applied to this.
The 6,000 soldiers sent this time. It is for spring enlightenment. Preparation after the passage is passable. According to the information revealed by the informant and the detective. The Tatars would organize an offensive against North Korea. Completely cripple the enemy here. Then the port was blocked. Guarantee your own back road.
After clearing North Korea. Then bring together the forces of the Eight Banners and the various subordinate troops. Go to a decisive battle with most of the Mongols in the steppe west of Shengjing. Open the current encirclement.
Wang Hai is confident that with the help of firearms, he can defend his plate. The more than 6,000 reinforcements worked together regardless of how the Tartars proceeded next. He's not going to be on this guard. And it's time to go on the offensive.
"Lord Wang. Henan's square is vast. You can't just give the villain a house. Price is not an issue. ”
"Lord Wang. There is also a lot of silver on the lower officials' side. There are a lot of Naoli famine. Xia Guan said bluntly. The price is still too low. It's okay to double the height. The prince is not fond of multi-story gunboats. The lower officials are willing to assist vigorously. ”
"Lord Wang. Except for our family. There are also many businessmen and gentry in Yangzhou and Jiangnan who want to buy fields. Please also ask the prince to open,*! ”
“…… There are also some maritime merchants in Guangdong who want to buy them. Please also ask the prince to grant permission ......"
Jinan City Qi Palace. Fang Ren and Zheng Zhilong, who had just arrived, blushed and pleaded with Li Meng with a thick neck. That's the effect of selling strategies. Huaishang and Min brought a large amount of gold to Shandong.
