(The first chapter today, there is another chapter in the evening, and today it is still an 8,000-word update.)

Thanks to 'Zuilang,' Jiuzhai Maple Leaf Forest,,' Tigerpi Brother Tai's monthly pass, thanks to'Zuilang,' 'Thirteen" wolf, Brother Tai's reward, thank you

"Everyone, please see, Kaolang Wuwei here, and here, these two places, one goes to the northeast, the other goes to the southwest, it is a traffic point, in addition to these two places, the other places, either the Songhua River, or the dense forests and high mountains, the army is not easy to pass, it is to divide the first guard into two parts, each of these two places. Yang Husheng Yang Qianhu's cavalry was divided into four units and patrolled on four routes, southeast, northwest and northwest. Once you find out that there is a small force of Nakao Lang Wuwei who has gone out of the city to plunder the people, eat it immediately! If they send a large army to attack, the strength of our two thousand households will be enough to resist for a long time, and then the cavalry will fight from the flanks and stranguish and defeat it! ”

Xiong Tingbi said in a deep voice: "In short, it's just a sentence, they can't get out of the city and have no food to eat." In the end, they will either starve to death, or force them out of the city to fight us! ”

After Xiong Tingbi finished speaking, he saluted Lian Zining and walked back to his seat.

"Good!" Lian Zining praised it, Xiong Tingbi has now gradually revealed his talent and demeanor that belongs to a generation of famous generals, and he has shown it in the past two zhangs, and the timing is very accurate and just right. And this time to besiege the Kaolang Wuwei, the whole plan is very dense and perfect, which can be called a good strategy.

"Kaolang Wuwei, how many days can the grain and grass in the city last?" Lian Zining asked.

Xiong Tingbi said: "According to the news from the secret agents of MI6, there is not much grain and grass in the city, in fact, on the second day of the siege, the city has begun to limit grain and collect civilian grain and grass. Up to one month of support according to their plan! ”

"In a month, I should be able to catch up." Lian Zining nodded: "Tingbi is doing a very good job, let's talk about your second thing." ”

"Da Chun, you report on the casualties of these two battles."

"It's my lord!"

Wang Chun stood up, took out a small piece of paper, and said solemnly: "In the past two battles, our infantry soldiers have killed 379 people, seriously injured 457 people, and slightly injured more than 1,300 people, and cavalry killed 103 people, seriously injured 19 people, and slightly injured 270 people. In the past two wars, a total of more than 4,600 catties of gunpowder, 13,000 lead bullets, 2,000 shells, and ammunition consumption equivalent to 1,900 taels of silver were consumed. In addition, the military salary was 14,000 taels, 5,000 stone of grain and grass, 15,000 bundles of hay, and 28,000 catties of meat. ”

"Let's talk about how many people the other side died in battle. **

"In the first battle of Qileniwei, more than 2,400 rebels were killed, and more than 3,000 enemies were killed in the first battle of Mangita City and Yaoqizhan Station."

Zhang Shisan, who had changed their names to Zhang Shishan, and Hong Chaojiao, who had already changed their names to Zhang Shishan, were both present, and they couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed when they heard this

"Hmm!" Lian Zining nodded and asked, "Have the soldiers' pensions been implemented?" ”

"Well, it's all in place." Wang Dachun said: "The mark has sent people to the Guannai to find the bereaved families of the brothers who died in the war, and is ready to move them to the Invalids Farm. The remains of the brothers who died in the war have been found, cleaned, changed into new clothes, and put into coffins to be buried on an auspicious day. ”

"Good job, this work must be done well, don't chill the hearts of the brothers."

Lian Zining knocked on the table and said, "Why do I want everyone to know this data?" There is only one purpose, and that is to unify thoughts! ”

"Before, I heard some rumors, saying that our army is too dependent on firearms, too much investment in firearms, and there are some complaints about the Ordnance Bureau's spending money! I'm telling you! Lian Zining's eyes swept around, his voice was a little higher, and he said coldly: "Why does our Wu Yijun rely so much on firearms?" It's because firearms are powerful! Firearms are an inevitable trend in the development of wars in the future, so why don't we use powerful tools? Isn't that stupid? ”…,

"Everyone heard it just now, in these two battles, we killed less than 500 people, and killed more than 5,000 enemies, with a casualty ratio of ten to one! What do we rely on? The first is hard training, the second is the spear phalanx, and the third, and most important, is our firearms. ”

"The facts are in front of you. Therefore, no one will have any more complaints in the future. Lian Zining looked at Gonzalez: "Old Gang, there will be a shortage of money and people in the future, just open your mouth." ”

Gonzalez smiled happily and hurriedly agreed,

In fact, Lian Zining is a little suspicious of making a fuss about this matter, but he seems to be easy-going on the outside, but he is actually quite domineering and possessive. Wu Yijun was regarded by him as his own private army, and he would never allow strange voices to exist.

"The third thing is to report the reward!" Lian Zining suddenly stood up and said, "All stand up!" ”

A cadre of officers stood up with a hula, and Lian Zining said: "First of all, I want to commend all of you here, in the past two wars, the performance has been quite good. In addition, we would like to give a special award to Dong Ce of the 1,000th Household of the First Guard! ”

After that, Lian Zining took the lead in applauding.

Everyone also applauded, and many people turned their envious eyes to Dong Ce, the third guard was about to be formed, and at this sensitive time, the adults praised it by name, which was almost already releasing a signal - the title of the commander of the third guard, if nothing else, it would fall on Dong Ce's head.

Dong Ce forcibly suppressed the excitement in his heart, and just smiled implicitly.

"Sit down, and announce the fourth thing!"

Lian Zining seemed to know what they were thinking, and after doing it, he smiled slightly: "In these two wars, we have consumed a lot and gained a lot, not only recovering the lost territory, but also capturing a lot of prisoners of war. The 6,000 prisoners of war of Qileniwei and the 3,000 prisoners of war of Mangjita City and Yaoqi Station have been sent to the Recruit Department to be responsible for training. Deqing, what's the situation on your side? ”

Xie Deqing, counselor of the recruit department, stood up and said: "Everything is good, these prisoners of war are very obedient, and their training attitude is also very positive, but their health is too poor, not a little worse than our soldiers." Our daily big fish and big meat tube are enough for their bodies to slowly recover, and it is estimated that it will take at least two months to form combat effectiveness. ”

Lian Zining bowed his head and said, "There are a total of nine thousand prisoners of war, plus the five thousand recruits we recruited before, a total of fourteen thousand. It's enough to form two guards, and the official is going to form two guards, but the specific regulations haven't been decided yet, so let's talk to everyone first. ”

As soon as he heard this, he was a little cold-hearted, and everyone was eager, and Lian Zining was secretly satisfied when he saw it.

In fact, the size of the Wu Yi army given by the imperial court has reached ten guards, but all the officers who have now achieved the level of a thousand households can basically be promoted to the level of the commander of the guards, but the people's enthusiasm is inevitable, and everyone wants to climb up first.

In this way, the motivation is high.

"One last thing, and today's focus!" Lian Zining said in a deep voice: "That is to arrange the next battle plan!" ”

After Lian Zining finished speaking, he stood up and walked to the front of the map.

Everyone was shaken,

Lian Zining pointed the whip in his hand on the ground of Kemuwei: "Kaolang Wuwei is already dying, without the mutual echo of the two rebels, they are already out of the climate, and they have no threat to us, so our next offensive target is set on the ground of Kemuwei." ”

"The area of Dumbi is 300 miles from east to west, more than 400 miles from north to south, and its border is more than 30 miles away from Mangita City. It's not that far, but it's very difficult for us to fight it! ”…,

"But to the east of the Woodley is the Azov River, which is an antenna, and it is impossible to get through. There are many swampy wetlands and lakes outside the Guan, and the ground of Komu Mountain is particularly concentrated, and the north and south of the ground of Kemu Mountain are dense forests that stretch for hundreds of miles, including large and small lakes, lakes, and wetlands, which are impossible for large and large armies to pass through. Only from the west, in the valley of the Songhua River, leads to the hinterland of the Komu Mountains on the plains and is free to pass.

Although the Tohoku region is bitterly cold, it is not actually dry, but in fact, due to its proximity to the Sea of Whales, which later became the Sea of Japan, the monsoon winds blowing from the Pacific Ocean bring abundant water vapor, and the annual precipitation far exceeds that of Shandong, North China, Henan and other places, making it an out-and-out humid climate.

The sunshine time in the Northeast is also broken, and the summer sun is not hot, so the evaporation is relatively small, so that there are a large number of lakes and lakes in the Northeast, which are often connected together in strings, like pearls scattered on the green wilderness. In winter, when the ice is frozen, fishermen often dig through the ice and catch fresh fish as a tax to pay to Xishenwei. Those fish are all grown naturally, the meat is porcelain, fat and tender, and extremely delicious.

Lian Zining has also eaten a lot.

But there is no doubt that a large number of lakes and even wetlands with a depth of about one meter will have a very serious impact on the march, and the dense forest is not passable at all, maybe one or two people can. But in this day and age, for an army of more than five thousand in size, a dense forest full of all kinds of unknown dangers is a nightmare.

But Mushan is not easy to fight, but for Lian Zining, he has to be defeated! One of the reasons is naturally that Lian Zining has already made a military order to Zhengde, and before next summer, the hinterland of the Songhua River will be leveled without leaving a trace of hidden dangers. Another important reason is that the ground of Kemu Mountain is very rich, and its radius is in the hinterland near 100 miles, all of which are fertile and fertile soil, and the endless Great Plains have been reclaimed to reach more than 40,000 hectares, that is, 4 million acres, and the land that can be reclaimed but has not yet been reclaimed is several times this. The yield of corn has been proven, and compared to the yield of other crops in modern times, it can be described as terrifying, if you occupy this place, how much tax can be collected? How many soldiers can be fed?

Of course, Lian Zining will not say these words to the officers, as a soldier, it is better to be simple. And when he said this, it was already like treating Songhua Jiangnan as his private property, and it was also a bit rebellious.

Therefore, he just said: "But Mushan is not easy to fight, but it must be defeated, after you go back, think about it, everyone has to come up, let's brainstorm." ”

"Alright, that's all for now! Meeting! Lian Zining walked out of the war room, leaving behind a group of officers who were either thoughtful or bitter-looking.
