After receiving the good news, Emperor Chongzhen and the cabinet couldn't believe it at first, not long ago Qingdu victory, Lu Xiangsheng reported 358 slave level, everyone thought that it was still relied on, and the personnel of the military department also confirmed this afterwards.

After a long time, Emperor Chongzhen made up his mind and said to Yang Sichang: "The cloud feeds the land, you can't lose it, and you want to make Lu Xiangsheng rush to help, what does Yang Aiqing think?" ”

Yang Sichang said respectfully: "Your Majesty, most of the slaves and thieves are really determined to go south, the situation is urgent, Lu Shangshu knows that the soldiers are brave, this is a critical juncture, but you can't leave the count." ”

His expression seemed to be groaning, and he said half-loudly: "Under the command of Lu Shangshu, there is Wang Pu, the chief soldier of Datong, and the general soldier Wang is also brave in battle, and the great victory in Qingdu is what he won in a bloody battle." With Wang's general army rushing to the aid of Taiyuan, it is expected that it will be foolproof and relieve the panic of the people of Taiyuan. ”

Emperor Chongzhen nodded slowly, but there was another layer of worry: "Lu Xiangsheng is under his command, but there are more than 10,000 officers and soldiers, and after General Wang leaves, I am afraid that his subordinates will be insufficient." ”

After a series of victories, Lu Xiangsheng is now very important in the heart of Emperor Chongzhen, second only to Yang Sichang's existence. He also prepared to let the military department order Lu Xiangsheng to go south, continue to intercept the Qing troops, and make new contributions.

Yang Sichang smiled and said: "The emperor doesn't have to worry, under the command of Lu Shangshu, there is the Wang Doubu of the three armies of Yongguan, and there are the general soldiers of the Murofu and the general soldiers of Shanxi Wa, and the elite main force is not lost."

He said: "This victory in Dingzhou is General Wang's wild wave battle, defeating most of the slaves and thieves, with such a fierce general by Lu Shangshu's side, the emperor can rest assured." ”

Speaking of Wang Dou, Emperor Chongzhen also had a smile on his face, the Qing soldiers entered the Kou, and the level won in Wang Dou's hands alone has passed through two thousand levels. With such military achievements, since the middle of the Ming Dynasty, perhaps only Qi Shaobao can be compared with Wang Dou. He had already calculated how he should reward Wang Dou after the battle. Of course, Wang Dou is so young now, he has such a high military exploit, how to be rewarded, and the emperor is also a headache. "Again."

Yang Sichang said again: "The senior supervisor army has led tens of thousands of Guanning troops to the south, and Liu Gelao and Governor Chen also led more than 10,000 elite soldiers to the south, and there will be 50,000 elites in Zhending Mansion by then." In terms of troops, it can be called superior. ”

Hearing Yang Sichang say this, Emperor Chongzhen was even more relieved, and Yang Sichang was pretentious, it was indeed the words of the old man to seek the country, and all aspects were taken into account. He has been in Liaodong for a long time, and every time he talks with him, Wang Dou benefits non-automobile.

After listening to Xie Yike's words, Wang Dou was quite moved, the shadowless mountain is a few miles west of Gaoyang City, not far from the place where Wang Doubu camped, and has the reputation of "the sky is related to the victory realm, and there is no shadow in the sun to fall on the Yao Altar", there are hot springs such as Cangshan Mountain and Horse Washing Pond on the mountain, which are famous far and near. Anyway, I'm idle now, and it's fun to take a hot spring bath in such a cold weather.

Hearing that Wang 4 agreed, Xie Yike cheered, he rode on his horse, and said to Wang Dou: "Brother-in-law, since our Shunxiang Army went to war, we have made so many contributions, what reward do you say the emperor will give us after the war?" ”

Wang Dou groaned, now he is the commander of the guard, even if he is young and has little qualifications, but he has jumped three or four levels in the world, and he has been awarded the knowledge of all the divisions, and it should be no problem to serve as a general on a certain road in Xuanfu Town. The subordinates also followed the rising tide. Or maybe the deputy chief soldier, the chief soldier, Wang 1 shook his head......

A group of people and horses are fast, and soon arrive at the camp of the Shunxiang army, which is the place where a local person calls Zhaojiazhuang, and it is said that the family surnamed Zhao moved from Shanxi to Ting Village in the Ming Dynasty, so it left this name. There is a river to the south of the village, so it is easy to drink water.

When he came to his camp, he saw Lu Xiangsheng's personal general Chen An waiting in front of the gate, and he and a few guards beside him, all of them wore leather jackets, leather pants and leather hats, wrapped like a zongzi. In the cold weather, everyone breathed a thick white breath in their mouths and the horses under them, and the horses also stirred a few times from time to time, grinding their iron hooves against the hard topsoil.

Seeing Wang Dou, Chen An smiled and saluted in Ma Tu: "General Wang came back by coincidence, and the last general was about to go to the camp to find the general on the order of the governor!" Wang Dou also returned the salute on the horse, and said: "I don't know what is the important matter of pulling the last general in front of the governor?" ”

Chen An said with a smile: "As in the past, Governor Lu recruited all the soldiers and invited General Wang to give lectures. ”

Wang Dou smiled slightly, he won several times and three times, which naturally attracted the general attention of the generals, who doesn't want to be as brave and good at fighting as Wang Dou and constantly making meritorious contributions? Everyone first visited privately, especially Yang Guozhu, the general soldier of Xuanfu, who was close to the water, and invited Wang Dou to a banquet for several days to ask about his experience (). Then Wang Pu, the chief military officer of Datong, arrived, and also invited Wang Dou affectionately, knocking on the side, just to find out the secret of Wang Dou's victory.

In the end, under the strong request of the generals, Lu Xiangsheng specially recruited the generals and invited Wang Dou to come and give a good lecture.

According to everyone's speculation, some people think that it is the benefit of Wang Dou's firearms, and some people think that Wang Doujun is strict and well-trained. In fact, Wang Dou has nothing to hide, his tactics can be known by a discerning person at a glance.

In fact, Wang Dou also thinks that his firearms are part of it, but this is not the most important thing. The weapons used by Wang Doujun are just old goods from decades ago in the Ming Dynasty, and the most advanced weapons in the Ming army are Lu Xiangsheng's standard battalion, which has already used self-generated fire guns and Lu Mi guns, and there are no weapons in his own army.

The key is the reliable quality of firearms. The reasons for this are complex and involve many relationships, but with the respect of the general soldiers of each town, there is nothing that cannot be solved. As the commander-in-chief, it is not a problem for them to make hundreds of high-quality firearms. In history, Xu Guangqi spent a lot of money and asked Western craftsmen to make a large number of excellent firecrackers and artillery, but it did not have any effect.

Strategic mistakes are one of the reasons why all sides are at a loss, and the corruption of discipline in the armies is also a very important reason. In the main barracks of the general army of each town, at least the basic food and salary can be guaranteed, and it is observed,):$. , is that they have too many soldiers in the army, and there are too many soldiers, and the existence of these people makes it difficult to achieve strict military discipline in the Shunxiang Army.

If nothing else is said, just like in the battle, like the Shunxiang army, they insist on entering the firing range and then firing the guns, and everyone will not be able to do it. In this way, no matter how sophisticated a firearm is, it will not be able to wield its power. To be like the Shunxiang Army, each general soldier must first plant most of his subordinates, and they can't do it alone.

In the end, Wang Dou was not optimistic about their army that only received salaries and had no sense of belonging. If there is ten points of salary, there will be seven points of loyalty, and if there is five points of salary, there will be three points of loyalty, and if there is no food, as soon as you avoid the battle, you will run away, and you will be old. Warlord mentality coupled with arrogant soldiers and fierce generals, it is strange that they are willing to fight tough battles. ))$ Old White Bull:
