Chapter 1035: Command
ο»Ώ
"Jiannu, a lot of Jiannu!"
This sounded so familiar, but I saw that in front of the camp was a small river about two feet wide, and the water of the river only reached the small feet of people. Marshmallow Yu Liang's war horse rushed over, bringing up a large splash: "Zhou Zhangmu, Shimazu, you are all here, hurry up, let the soldiers prepare, at most a pot of tea, Jiannu will be killed." β
As he spoke, he had already rushed into the camp, and leaped off his horse, gasping for breath.
"A lot of slaves, how many?" Zhou Zhongying asked.
Yu Liang shook his head with a wry smile: "I can't see clearly, and I don't have time to see it, anyway, the black pressure is overwhelming, straight thieves, there are not five thousand but three thousand, and they are infantry and cavalry, and they are rushing towards us, it is estimated that they also know that we have caught the intersection of this road, and they want to come over to grab gas." β
Grabbing Qi is a Go term that means to be one step ahead
γ
The so-called step first, step by step.
"So much!" Zhou Zhongying let out a low snort, and for a moment, he remembered why he was familiar with this sentence "Jiannu, there are many Jiannu", and on the morning of Xuyi's attack, the sentry also shouted like this. The terrible memory came back to my heart, and a layer of goosebumps suddenly appeared on my body.
"Finally met the enemy, good, very good!" Kazuo Shimazu jumped down and ran towards the camp. As he ran, he shouted excitedly, "Let everyone come here, come over here, let's give Jiannu a little bit of power here." Also, go and ask Prince Li to come over. β
Bands of musketeers began to assemble, and two four-pounder bronze cannons rumbled behind the horses. Japanese gunners used crowbars to pry open wooden boxes and powder kegs and quickly reload them.
The soldiers of the Korean battalion also began to assemble, helping each other with iron armor on their bodies, waving one stick after another in the air, and then there was a noisy whistling, and the Goryeo sticks were still so noisy.
The instructors assigned to the Korean battalion and the Shimazu wing of the Ningxiang Army gave orders loudly, and occasionally Japanese and Korean officers slapped their subordinates.
"Hooray, hooray!" The Japanese began to motivate morale, neatly and powerfully.
The Koreans are still arguing.
Zhou Zhongying was still flustered in his heart, and couldn't help but quietly ask Yu Liang: "Yu Jiaotou, this battle ...... Can you win...... Is it? β
Yu Liang glanced at him strangely: "There are only four or five thousand Jiannu, but we have 1,500 people here, occupying the geographical advantage." Besides, Kazuo Shimazu is equipped with a large number of firearms, not to mention the total annihilation of the invading enemy, it is not a problem to defend this pass, and the head of the pastor does not have to worry. β
Zhou Zhongying ate him back, paused, and said, "If it is the people of our Yuanzi camp, naturally I am not afraid." But the soldiers of the Shimazu Wing and the Korean battalion are really not successful, and I am afraid that they will not be able to hold here. β
Yu Liang: "There is no reason for the minister's worries, these two troops are trained by us without instructors, although they are not as good as the Ningxiang army, they can also walk sideways on this battlefield." They all use the tactics of my Yangzhou Town, do you doubt the methods of the Hou Ye? In this battle, our army will win. β
For Sun Yuan, Yu Liang admired the five-body body and worshiped it so much.
Speaking of Yu Liang, he also joined the Ningxiang Army during the last Yangzhou War, and he can only be regarded as a newcomer in the army
γ (Nice marshmallows.)
His grandfather was a famous anti-Japanese general and national hero Yu Dayou. 's father is Yu Zhigao, the chief military officer of Fujian, who can be said to be from a famous family and a tiger of the general.
It's a pity that the Yu family's experience is extremely miserable.
When his father Yu Zhigao was the chief military officer of Fujian, he united with the Dutch fleet to encircle and suppress Zheng Zhilong in Tongshan, Fujian, but suffered an unprecedented defeat and almost wiped out his entire army.
It's not because Yu Zhigao is incompetent, it's because Zheng Chenggong's father is too good. I think that at the beginning, Sun Yuan and Lao Zheng fought for bears in the Yellow Sea, and the sailor also suffered countless times under him. In the end, relying on strong economic power, repeated defeats and battles, he finally won the route from the Ming Dynasty to Japan. Strictly speaking, on the ocean, Fang Weijiang and Zheng Zhilong only had a draw, and in the end, Zheng Yiguan really couldn't bear the huge war losses, so he proposed peace talks.
Encountering such an opponent, Yu Zhigao was not unjustly defeated.
After the entire army was destroyed, Yu Zhigao fled. Later, the imperial court investigated the responsibility for this battle, escorted General Yu to the Beijing Division, and sentenced a decision to behead, the family wealth was confiscated, the women in the house were not slaves as officials, and the men were assigned to the nine sides.
The descendants of a generation of national heroes have fallen into such a field, which makes people sigh. The government of the Ming Dynasty was actually very harsh on heroes. For example, Xiong Tingbi, Yu Qian, and Qi Jiguang, none of them ended well.
Sun Yuan also heard about Yu Liang by chance, and after knowing that he was loyal, he took off the slave status on his head and recruited him into the army.
During the Yangzhou War, Yu Liang's outstanding performance on the battlefield attracted Sun Yuan's attention, so he was promoted to his side as a personal guard.
This person's martial arts skills are extremely strong, and as soon as he entered Sun Yuan's personal guards, he relied on an ash pole to subdue everyone, and was respected as the head of the guards. You must know that the group of guards under Sun Yuan are all going to charge forward with the commander and protect the Hou Ye thoroughly, and their martial arts are all the best in the army, and they are one in a thousand strongmen like Leng Ying. As soon as Yu Liang entered the guards, he became a brother, which made Sun Yuan look at him with admiration.
As a traverser, modern people have a martial arts plot in their hearts. He quietly asked Fu Shan, how is this Yu Liang's martial arts?
Fu Shan didn't have any nonsense, and replied directly: "Qi Hu Yulong, the two great martial arts masters, what do you say?" Yu Liang is now the first in the army, if he lives for more than ten years, when he is successful in martial arts, I am afraid that I am not his opponent
γ β
The so-called Qi Hu Yu Long refers to the two great martial arts masters Qi Jiguang and Yu Dayou in the middle and late Ming Dynasty.
Qi Jiguang's Yang family gun is Yang Miaozhen's gun, while Yu Dayou is learning the Shaolin stick method.
It was precisely because Yu Liang was so powerful that when the North Korean battalion needed a gun and stick instructor, Sun Yuan sent him over, which can be regarded as cultivating his ability to lead troops, and once he matures, he can be promoted to be an officer.
With the continuous expansion of the power of Yangzhou Town, the situation of talent disconnection is becoming more and more serious. First of all, there is a serious shortage of civil officials in governing the locality, and there is no choice but to make a nondescript civil service examination outside the system, and gather a group of frustrated literati like Zhou Zhongying, which can be regarded as supporting the civil affairs structure of Yangzhou Town.
In fact, the Ming Dynasty raised scholars for more than 200 years, and the common people in the middle of the Ming Dynasty were quite passable. In a rich area like Jiangnan, the trend of reading is prevalent, and intellectuals are like carp crossing the river, and there are too many of them, and the way out becomes narrow. Almost everyone poured into the imperial examination, and the competition was terrifying.
For example, in southern Jiangsu and Zhejiang, where culture and education are prosperous, not to mention the township examination, even if it is a college examination to obtain the fame of Xiucai, because there are too many people who have signed up, the number of places is not enough, and you have to take an additional test in advance, and you can only go to the provincial capital for reference after obtaining the qualifications.
is also because there are too few ways out, Li Zicheng almost did not worry about life when he took Henan and opened the imperial examination. Later, the Manchu Qing Dynasty opened the imperial examination, and scholars also flocked to it. At this time, no thoughts of the family and the country, any discipline can be taken into account, and they must give way to vital interests, which is human nature.
The problem of civil officials is easy to solve, after all, there is a huge base of scholars who can be selected, but military attachΓ©s have some headaches for Sun Yuan.
Most of the generals under him were from the Nine Sides officers, and some were later trained in the war. The problem is that a qualified general is not something that can be trained by reading a few military books, many soldiers are illiterate, and the uneducated army can't even understand the orders of their superiors, so how can they lead troops to fight.
Therefore, over the years, the size of his troops has been small, not that there are no qualified soldiers, but there are really no generals who can lead the troops.
Yu Liang is also a general, and his martial arts are strong, so he naturally becomes a baby bump in the army, and he must be vigorously cultivated.
For him, Sun Yuan has the grace of life and the grace of knowing things, and Yu Liang is naturally loyal to Sun Yuan.
Yu Liang grew up in the army since he was a child, and he has been in Yangzhou Town for so long, what kind of army is the Ningxiang Army, he naturally understands that he naturally admires Sun Yuan very much
γ He was full of faith in the victory of the 1,500-strong army against the 5,000-strong Jiannu army.
was refuted by him, Zhou Zhongying sneered: "Yes, yes, what Jiaotou Yu said is true, I naturally believe in Hou Ye's methods." However, it is better to be cautious about this war. Although the Japanese slaves and Goryeo people were trained by the instructors of the Ningxiang Army, they are both brave soldiers, but they are still much worse than our Ningxiang Army, such as these Goryeo sticks, they are all noisy, and they can't see the appearance of a strong army. This is the first and the second...... There's one sentence I don't know whether to say or not. β
Yu Liang: "Zhou Zhangmu, you just say it." After Zhou Zhongying's reminder, his heart was cold. Yes, the Japanese slaves are okay, they know how to obey orders, and they know how to obey. The people in the North Korean battalion are very arrogant, they look like the boss of the heavens, our second child, and there is no word order in their eyes. As the head of the guns and sticks of these two teams, no one knows better than him what the North Korean battalion is.
Zhou Zhongying: "What's more...... Although I don't know much about military affairs, I also know that this war is highly centralized, and there can only be one voice and one order from top to bottom of the three armed forces. The current situation is that there are three groups of people crowded into this camp: the North Korean battalion, the Shimazu Wing, and the instructors of our Ningxiang Army. Wait for the next fight, and the troops will listen to whom. Listen to Prince Lee, Kazuo Shimazu or listen to us. I'm afraid that when the time comes, Kazuo Shimazu will defend and Prince Li will attack, maybe we have another idea, and we don't have to fight this battle. β
Yu Liang thought for a while: "Yes, Zhou Zhangmu is right, I forgot about this, we have to choose a commander in this battle." It is said that Prince Li has the most noble status and should be commanded by him. β
"I can't do it, I can't do it. The prince has never led troops, don't look at his usual cross-border talk, according to the old man, that is, a Zhao Kuo, if he is allowed to lead troops, maybe we will all become the Zhao army of the Battle of Changping. Kazuo Shimazu is a pirate, and it is impossible for him to be a commander. In my opinion, General Yu is the most suitable commander. After your martial arts are strong and you are loyal, everyone is convinced. β
"I can't do it, my position is too low, and now I'm just a coach, and my official military position is just a defense, which is not suitable for the prince and Shimazu to give command." Yu Liang shook his head and said, "Or, Zhou Zhangmu, you will lead the troops!" β
Since Zhou Zhongying killed a Jiannu, he has become more courageous, and his heart has also lived, and he is a person who is greedy for power. In fact, what he just said was to get the command, perform well in this battle, and get meritorious service. Otherwise, as a quartermaster, he would not have been able to make meritorious contributions to the war.
However, on the surface, he still couldn't help but be modest, saying that he couldn't do it, just a civil official from the seventh grade, and he was afraid that the soldiers would not be convinced
γ
Yu Liang: "Why don't you accept it, our Ming Dynasty, noble and martial." You are civil officials, but you are a big lord, our martial arts are humble, and in the eyes of the court, we are simply villains and thieves. You come to lead the troops, Prince Li and Shimazu dare to disagree. β
His grandfather made immortal achievements, but in the end he was dismissed from his official position and returned to his hometown to retire, and died of depression. His father was beheaded by the court on the charge of defeat, and he was an armored slave for many years. He didn't have the slightest affection for the Ming Dynasty, and he was only loyal to Sun Yuan. When it comes to "our Ming Dynasty", the tone is full of sarcasm and resentment.
Zhou Zhongying was naturally willing, but he still couldn't help shaking his head modestly.
Yu Liang was impatient and shouted: "Zhou Zhangmu, Jiannu will come as soon as he speaks, and he will not have time to grind, so be it, immediately call someone to invite Li Ju and Kazuo Shimazu to come over and report the matter." If we are delayed and defeated, are we worthy of the Hou Ye? βγ
Zhou Zhongying nodded in agreement: "Then the old man is not hypocritical, the war is urgent, and he should not give in." However, General Yu, you also know that I don't know much about military affairs, so I'll put on a name. How this battle should be fought depends on your command. β
"Husband, you can rest assured." Yu Liang nodded, and then asked someone to bring Li Ju and Kazuo Shimazu to explain the matter.
Kazuo Shimazu is a shrewd person, knowing that he is just a servant army in Yangzhou Town, and Zhou Zhongying is Sun Yuan's henchman, Zhenghong, immediately nodded in agreement. Although Li Ju was a little unhappy, since Kazuo Shimazu agreed, he couldn't say anything, and he was indeed a layman in the military.
Soon, Yu Liang had the instructors disperse into two armies and master the troops.
Under their restraint, the chaos of the Korean battalion finally passed. All the soldiers were dressed in armor and carrying weapons, and they were held up behind the horses, and their shields were joined together like a low wall.
As for the more than 1,000 musketeers of the Shimazu training team, they were crowded and crowded behind the horses, pointing their muskets in front of them, staring into the distance with wide eyes.
"No, no, musketeers, you can't line up like this." Suddenly, Yu Liang roared loudly: "Listen to my command, the troops are reorganized." Damn, it's still a soldier of the Shimazu family in Kyushu, and he is used to using iron cannons, so that's all he means. β
Hearing his roar, the people of the Shimazu United team were confused, and they couldn't understand why Yu Jiaotou was angry.
