After a long time, one of the staff members said carefully: "The general system means that Jiannu is going to return to the north?" ”

Hong Chengchou nodded: "The reason why Jiannu gathered in Shandong is nothing more than to take Shandong's assets for their own use. 【Latest chapter reading】Today, Hebei has been ruined, and the prefectures and counties of Shandong have also been looted by Yuetuo. The reason why they couldn't stay in Jinan Mansion was because they thought about the goods in Jinan City. ”

"Now, the Jiannu Right Route Army was defeated, Yue Tuo was beheaded by Sun Yuan, the enemy group was leaderless, and the siege of Jinan was solved. If Dolgon wanted to take Jinan, he first had to cross the camp of the six towns. Now, the Jiannu army is depressed and has no will to fight. It is no longer possible to take Jinan, and if you don't leave, what can you do, will you wait for the reinforcements from all walks of life in our Ming Dynasty to arrive one after another and encircle and annihilate them here? ”

A staff member applauded: "The general system is right, and now, the first merit of the first battle in Shandong has been taken by Liu Gelao and Sun Yuan." If we do nothing and let Jiannu return to the north safely, how will we explain to the court and the Son of Heaven in the future? Moreover, now that the morale of Jiannu is low, it is the time to use soldiers. ”

Hong Chengchou nodded with satisfaction: "That's right, that's exactly what I think." ”

Speaking of this, he said calmly: "Order all towns, this battle is of great significance. Let's not mention the previous things, this time against Jiannu, who only has half a life left, if he no longer fights bravely to kill the enemy, he will blame the ruthlessness of the general military law. By the way, where has Qin Jun gone? ”

"The general system has reached the river."

Hong Chengchou: "It's just in time, Cao Bianjiao." ”

Cao Bianjiao: "The end will be!" ”

Hong Chengchou: "You immediately rush to Hejian, take over the command of the army, and stop the scattered Jiannu Right Route Army for me." This time, I'm afraid I'm going to have to work hard for you. ”

Cao Bianjiao smiled: "Don't worry, if you can't stop Jiannu this time, you can't cut off Du Du's head, and you are willing to accept the military law of the general system." ”

After speaking, he strode out of the camp and shouted at a few people who were leading their horses and gnawing on big cakes crookedly: "Sang Niandi is very, you will immediately get on the horse for Lao Tzu." ”

A family member smiled and threw away the cake in his hand and jumped on the horse: "General, where are you going?" ”

"Hejian, go kill Jiannu!" Cao Bianjiao shouted: "Our Sanqin disciples are the strongest soldiers of my Ming Dynasty, and the Ningxiang Army has already taken the credit of pouring the sky." Thief, your mother, we haven't fought a battle since we arrived in Beijing, this time, we have to ask Sun Taichu and them to see that the heroes who came out of our eight hundred miles of Qinchuan are not cowards! ”

Inside the tent, the staff members were busy, and orders were issued one after another like flowing water.

A staff member cautiously said to Hong Chengchou: "Dong Weng, the enemy's army on the right has collapsed, has the general Chinese army moved into Jinan City?" "This person is Hong Chengchou's old man, and he doesn't care so much when he speaks. Since coming to Shandong, everyone has lived in the wilderness, and the conditions are too poor.

Which can compare to the beauty of the forest spring pavilions in Jinan City.

Hong Chengchou shook his head: "What are you doing in Jinan, do you wish you a good fortune for Liu Ge?" "Liu Yuliang, through this period of contact, Hong Chengchou knows very well. This person is a corrupt Confucian, and he is not very open-minded, and he often finds fault with people, and he and Liu Ge Lao do not get along very well: "Besides, it is very important to intercept the Jiannu who fled north, and Ben Shuai should be on the front line in person, how can he stay in Jinan City." If a certain person is greedy for pleasure, how can he tell the soldiers of the six towns to use their lives immediately? ”

"That's exactly what the general system says." The staff member was slightly disappointed, and then proposed: "General system, I understand it in the late life, this Ningxiang army is really capable of fighting, but it is not inferior to the elite of Jiannu." It is really important to intercept the deserters of Jiannu this time, can the Ningxiang Army be transferred to the general account to listen to it? The morale of the Ningxiang army is flourishing, and it can take the opportunity of a great victory to deter the enemy. When used at critical moments, it will definitely come in handy. ”

In an instant, Hong Chengchou was a little tempted. But he quickly rejected the suggestion of the staff, and sighed in a low voice: "A certain and I don't want to transfer the Ningxiang army to go out immediately, but there are two things that are not feasible. ”

"Please also make it clear from the general system."

Hong Chengchou said: "Sun Yuan is originally Lu Xiangsheng's disciple, and Lu Jiandou's prestige is no less than that of a certain person, is it possible for him to change his court?" Moreover, Sun Yuan is not inferior, and he may not be able to lower him. Moreover, he has now voted under Liu Gelao's door. Between a certain and a cabinet minister, is there any doubt about how Sun Taichu will choose? Moreover, this credit was jointly played by him and Liu Yuliang, and this credit alone is already a masterpiece of the world. Liu Ge is very shrewd, so he naturally wants to firmly grasp the Ningxiang Army at hand, how can he be willing to release it for a certain use. The battlefield is changing rapidly, if the Jiannu dog jumps over the wall in a hurry, and if the Ningxiang army suffers a defeat, wouldn't it be a layer of dust on the merits they have obtained? Therefore, if I were Sun Yuan, this battle would be over. ”

"If you emphasize the Ningxiang Army, Liu Ge Lao has a thousand excuses to push, such as the fatigue of the soldiers, and the losses of the troops are too great, but you can't say anything."

Staff: "The general system is right, admire." So, what about the other point? ”

"That's the key." Hong Chengchou said: "According to the rules of our army, after the troops win a victory, the responsibility of cleaning up the battlefield and calming the place must be carried out on their heads. The imperial court can't allocate much money every year, and the military salary of the army must rely on the army to make up for it. If I emphasize the Ningxiang Army, it is a violation of this rule. In the future, will anyone be willing to do what he is told? ”

The staff suddenly realized: "Exactly. ”

The army is a monster who eats money, and the little military salary paid by the imperial court every year is only enough for the troops to eat. Therefore, the army's equipment and training needs on weekdays must be self-funded. In the event of a war, there is a silver to be pulled, and when the enemy moves a knife, he must give a death silver, and after the war, regardless of victory or defeat, he must also issue a reward of silver. As for the medical treatment of the wounded, the burning and burial of the fallen soldiers is another huge expense.

Therefore, there is another unwritten rule in the army. Every time the army hits a place, it can prepare its own military pay. After defeating the enemy, all captures go to the winning army.

In the past, the same was true when the Qin army fought against the peasant army in Shanxi and Shaanxi.

Of course, the Ming Dynasty army rarely won battles in foreign wars. Therefore, many armies used their brains to hit the local yamen, such as borrowing the treasury and apportioning the ...... to the merchants There are even those who have corrupt moral character and even directly rob the people, killing the good and risking the merits.

This time, the Ningxiang army defeated the Yuetuo Army, and the captured booty naturally belonged to them. Moreover, after the siege of Jinan was lifted, the soldiers and civilians in the city must still have a lot of gratitude.

You transfer them now, let them give up the silver for nothing, Ningxiang Army has to fight with you.

Besides, the military is a place where rules are keen. If this unspoken rule is broken by him Hong Chengchou, when he becomes the governor of Jiliao in the future, other armies will inevitably have doubts and regard him as an outlier.

After weighing it, Hong Chengchou gave up the idea of pursuing Jiannu by the Tiaoning Township Army.

The staff member suddenly sighed: "Sun Yuan has made a fortune this time!"

Yes, Yue Tuo invaded the south this time, and he didn't know how much property he had looted, these were all cheap Ningxiang troops. With just this battle, his grandson Taichu will immediately be rich and rival the country.

Hong Chengchou said lightly: "This person has it, you immediately write an order to Sun Yuan to commend his merits." He was ordered to garrison Jinan, calm the place, and reorganize the army. ”

In his heart, he suddenly had an inexplicable thought: If the Ningxiang army really obediently gave up the spoils of war and led the troops to pursue Jiannu, what credit would it make? In this way, how can I show Hong Hengjiu and the means of the Qin army. The Qin army traveled thousands of miles to King Jingqin, and the battle was finished without an arrow, wouldn't it become a joke?
