Chapter 250: Yanagawa Advice

Zhao Lie's campaign is over, the battle of Gyeonggi is still ongoing, after the Jiannu army captured Yongping, and successively captured Qian'an, Luanzhou, Huang Taiji appeased the local officials, students, good words and comfort, but in Changli City was blocked, Zhixian Zuo Yingxuan organized young and strong desperate resistance, and more than 7,000 people from the Daishan Department who came to attack started a fierce battle. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Due to sufficient preparations, united as one, Jiannu stormed for a few days and could not be captured, Daishan sent Yongping, Luanzhou to persuade the officials, was scolded by Zuo Yingxuan to retreat, Xiaoxiao Changli turned out to be more tricky than Zunhua, Santun camp and other fortified cities, Daishan knew that if he did not pay a large casualty could not capture the city, in order to preserve his strength, he had to retreat.

The Jiannu soldiers pointed directly at Shanhaiguan, and the two sides launched an attack and defense in Funing County, west of Shanhaiguan, and the defenders resisted fiercely. At that time, the Jiannu cavalry was fighting everywhere, and successively burned more than 1,000 transport ships in Tongzhou, Sanhe and other places, and the baggage was not counted.

At the same time, due to the heavy losses of Jiannu, Huang Taiji issued an order to mobilize nearly 10,000 Mongolian soldiers from various departments of Duoyan and Karaqin to come to the rescue, plus thousands of Han troops who surrendered in Yongping, Luanzhou and other places, and Jiannu's prestige was restored.

At that time, reinforcements from all over the country came, but the enemy was cowardly, did not dare to engage in battle, Emperor Chongzhen was furious, and gave the prime minister Ma Shilong, the general soldier, and Wu Aheng, the superintendent of the army, the sword of Tianzi, first cut and then played, and controlled the reinforcements from all over the country.

At this time, all the 8,000 soldiers of the Denglai Army arrived in Beijing, and the military headquarters checked Denglai Town.

Emperor Chongzhen was overjoyed, immediately summoned the chief soldier Zhang Keda, warmly said and encouraged, and at the same time issued an order to praise, ordering him to lead Denglai Town to garrison the Beijing Division, protect the Son of Heaven, and at the same time set up the head of Jiannu and the armor in Beijing to boost the morale of the army, and other foreign reinforcements were all obeyed by Ma Shilong, and immediately went to Jizhen.

Ma Shilong, who has been in Liao Town for a long time, knows that there are uneven reinforcements from all over the country. The battle formation has been absent for a long time. In particular, the reinforcements in Henan, Fujian, Zhejiang, and Jiangxi are even more incomplete. It's all for the sake of making up the numbers, and you can't go into battle to kill the enemy immediately, so you can only avoid the enemy at this time.

After discussing with the general soldier of Datong Man Gui, the general soldier of Xuanfu You Shilu, the general soldier of Yansui Wu Zimian, and the general soldier Cao Minglei of Baoding, he sent the general soldier Yang Zhaoji to return to the Santun camp, the general guerrilla Cao Wenzhao to Yutian, the deputy general Jin Guoqi and others went to Kaiping to guard the sluggish Jiannu, and the rest of the armies went to Jizhou for training.

During this period, the Jiannu army re-attacked Santunying, Yutian, and Kaiping, and Yang Zhaoji and others led the army to resist desperately. Fight to the death to preserve.

At the end of February, Emperor Taiji led Allah to return to Liaodong, but left Erbel Amin to lead the blue flag to stay in Yongping, Luanzhou and other four cities, saying that he wanted to use this enclave as Dajin's foundation in Daming to operate, and it was a thorn in Dajin's hinterland that Dajin left, which can be said to be extremely important.

Since this place is so important, leaving Erbeile Amin, who can conquer and fight, to guard it is the importance of Erbeile, but Huang Taiji's order must defend these four cities.

Amin knows what to run in the four cities. It's just a means to be difficult for him, since it's so heavy. Only 3,000 soldiers and horses with blue flags and more than 2,000 surrendered Han troops were left, and 1,000 Mongolian soldiers were left behind.

It's just that this time to break through the Ming Dynasty, all the departments, including the coating, are extremely fruitful, after all, it is a rich land in the Ming Dynasty, so Huang Taiji's tough proposition of insisting on the Ming Dynasty now looks really wise, and his prestige has risen sharply.

And because Amin has always been domineering and intolerable, this time Huang Taiji's rather ridiculous order was not said except for Mang Gurtai's objections, and even Bellebezi, who was offended by Amin, celebrated in private, and Amin was quite isolated.

So, Amin could only be ordered to stay, but he really didn't care too much.

In the past few months, the combat strength of the officers and soldiers in the hinterland of the Ming Dynasty has been weak, far less than the Ming army of Liaozhen, and now the rift between the Ming army of Liaozhen and the Ming court has appeared, and the first part of Denglai is indeed immovable in Zhuozhou, and the other Ming troops are really not in the heart of Erbeile.

He made up his mind to face the enemy alone, and he must let Huang Taiji see, he Amin is a lone soldier and Liuming is not a bad Ming can deal with, he Huang Taiji miscalculated.

However, Dajin's two big Baylors underestimated the Ming army, the two armies may be invincible in a head-on duel, and the Ming army is best at beating the water dogs.

When the Ming army found out the enemy's situation, Ma Shilong didn't have to kick the ass of such a general to let them go into battle as he did some time ago. Ma Shilong took advantage of this to purge reinforcements from all walks of life and march eastward.

At the beginning of March, under the urging of Sun Chengzong, the governor of Jiliao, a university scholar, more than 30,000 soldiers from Liaozhen marched west under the leadership of the chief soldier Zu Dashou and the deputy general He Kegang, and came to the aid from Shanhaiguan.

The other reinforcements heard that the morale of the army was greatly boosted, and the strongest boss of the Ming border army was here, and there were only a few thousand Jiannu left, what else was there to fear.

So the tragedy of the two great Baylors, when Amin knew that Liaozhen came to the rescue, he understood that this battle would be lost, but what could he do, even if Amin was bold and reckless, he did not dare to flee without a fight, he understood that Huang Taiji could take this opportunity to take advantage of his military power. As a result, the second big Baylor could only sit in the city of sorrow.

The hinterland of the Ming Dynasty was full of smoke, the Eastern Empire fell into internal and external troubles, and Japan, which was also a member of the East, was not calm.

The Tokugawa shogunate was not incompetent, and they were well aware of the strange situation in Japan today, and they also understood that the biggest hidden danger was the Jeju Akito from outside.

In the castle tower of Edo Castle Maru, Tokugawa Iemitsu sat peacefully, and an old man with gray hair sat down in his hands, although he was old and his hair was a little thin, but his waist was straight, his eyes were sharp, and his spirit was strong.

"Yanagawa Daimoto, after the Battle of Iki Island, this shogun deeply felt that the daimyo in various places were about to move, and my Tokugawa shogunate's control over the daimyo in various places still needs to be strengthened, which is also the reason why this shogun appointed you and other daimyo fuki," Tokugawa Iemitsu looked at Yanagawa Muneki, the master of the art of war who was sitting below, "How can Omefu teach me." ”

Although Tokugawa Iemitsu was not a qualified military general, Iemitsu, who had always been sensitive, was sensitive to the changes in various places, and set up the daimyo Fu Fu, who was originally appointed two years later, to monitor various parts of Japan as his minions.

"The old minister doesn't dare," Yanagawa replied with a bow, "a few days." The old minister thought left and right. I thought of a few ideas. First, the ambitious subordinates of the daimyo were divided and made their internal instability, second, they were sent from among the many apprentices of the ministers to appoint their military masters to strengthen the monitoring of the daimyo in each region, and third, the number of the daimyo troops in each region was strictly controlled. Armaments must not be strengthened. ”

Tokugawa Iemitsu praised the head, the world only knows that Yanagawa is a kendo master, but I don't know that Yanagawa Iemitsu's real lethal weapon is his mind, and his strategy is better than the sword in his hand, which is also what Iemitsu has personally experienced over the years, many domestic matters, Iemitsu is consulting Yanagawa Soju, therefore, Yanagawa Soju can be said to be an important staff member of Tokugawa Iemitsu and has won his trust.

He deeply agreed with Yanagawa's remark about sending a division of the art of war. Not only can it strengthen the monitoring of local daimyos, but at the same time. It also allowed the shogunate to station personnel in the daimyo in a grand manner.

"Your Excellency the General, it's just that doing this is just a domestic countermeasure, the most important thing is to defeat the Jeju Mingren, without this strong enemy watching outside, the domestic situation is naturally comforted, and the current daimyo have no strength to compete with my shogunate."

Yanagawa was scheming, and he could see at a glance that there were no external troubles, and the shogunate had almost no internal worries.

"It can be seen that in the past two years, the shogunate has spent more than 200,000 silver judgments, but it has built more than 20 small Nanban warships, and at the same time trained more than 5,000 naval troops, in addition to less than 10 warships are being built. It's expensive. ”

Tokugawa Iemitsu shook his head, he was deeply distressed, even as the controller of Japan, he was extremely surprised by the speed of the navy's silver consumption, not to mention that the number of warships today was not as good as the number of ships of Jeju Mingren.

"Your Excellency General, I don't know how many Nanban warships my shogunate can build." Yanagawa asked.

"It's just dozens, and each battleship must be equipped with Nanban cannons, and the cost of these cannons has exceeded the battleship itself." Tokugawa Iemitsu sighed helplessly.

The caliber of the Japanese iron cannon was too small, the range was insufficient, and the power was far from enough, so it could only be purchased from the Dutch, and the Dutch took the opportunity to open his mouth and slaughtered the shogunate, which made Iemitsu feel distressed.

In addition, the thousands of soldiers replenished by the navy, and the tens of thousands of craftsmen added were gold-swallowing monsters, Tokugawa knew that there could only be less than 100 such warships, otherwise the shogunate would have to go bankrupt, and he was now suspending the construction of Edo Castle and Nikko Toshogu Shrine, and making every effort to build a fleet, but it was still overstretched.

"Your Excellency, the minister has been thinking hard for a long time, it is too difficult to build a fleet to meet the enemy with the strength of my Japanese family, so we can contact the vertical and horizontal and let the Ming people trap the enemy everywhere." Yanagawa bowed deeply.

"Oh, I'll talk about it as soon as possible." Tokugawa Iemitsu's eyes lit up.

"General, the Jeju Ming people occupy Jeju, which is intolerable to the Korean monarchs. This is a help for our army. Yanagawa said.

Tokugawa Iemitsu was slightly disappointed, "It's a pity that the Korean army is weak and unbearable to fight." "He was really dismissive of the North Korean soldiers.

"Has the general forgotten that North Korea has always been dominated by the Ming Dynasty, and the Korean monarchs and ministers asked the Ming Dynasty for help, and the Ming Dynasty could not ignore it, in addition, the Ming people in Jeju did not obey the orders of the Ming Dynasty, which was tantamount to rebellion, how could the Ming not be punished."

"It's a pity that the Ming Dynasty and Toyotomi Hideyoshi exhausted their financial resources in the first war, and at this time, they are in a war with the northern barbarians, and I am afraid that they will not have the strength to help Korea." It's a pity for Jiaguang.

"If my shogunate gives some silver taels, and North Korea also pays some silver, so that the Ming can help in the war, you know, the Ming Dynasty is in a hard battle, but its huge sailors are almost not damaged, with the silver, the Ming Dynasty will definitely let its sailors fight, as long as the battle is lost Jeju sailors, it is the victory of my shogunate." Yanagawa replied with a smile.

Tokugawa Iemitsu was overjoyed when he heard this, this matter is feasible, of course, everything has to be colluded with North Korea, Japan and North Korea are just giving some money and food, sitting and watching the Ming people kill each other, why not do it.

"What the big eyes say is very good." Jiaguang folded the fan and praised.

"In addition, the Dutch people are just coveting our trade routes, so they use this to lure them to attack and harass the Jeju Ming people, and the Dutch people will certainly not refuse, so the Jeju Ming people will definitely be embattled on all sides, and when the strength of the Ming people is damaged, and our army is cleaned up, a decisive battle will be held, and a great victory can be expected." Yanagawa Sect said.

Pop, Jiaguang high-fived with a folding fan, he couldn't help but sigh that Liuchuan Zongju is resourceful, and this plan is very good. (To be continued.) )
