Chapter 775: Attracting the Snake (1)

The mobilization of the army is tense and orderly, and the speed of mobilization and action can almost beat all the Ming troops in this era. Even if it is the Nine-Border Army or the four armies outside the country, it is difficult to say in terms of combat effectiveness, but in terms of the speed of mobilization and action, it is really not comparable to the New Army.

Of course, there are reasons why Yang Ji's logistics are good, and Yang Chengzu is familiar with him, so he can spread all the roads. On the other hand, it is also the soldier's own obedience and discipline, which is not as difficult to serve as the old soldiers. Regardless of the promotion fee, there is no need to pay military salaries in advance, and even the strength of the enemy and the enemy is not concerned.

In the courtyard of the Duke of Wei, Leng Feishuang helped Yang Chengzu pack his bags and prepare to leave, "Your new army is usable, just like a sharpened knife." This time, Xu Haiwang hit the blade directly, and I am afraid that it will look good. ”

"Then he can only be blamed for his bad luck, who made him refuse to come down, he has to let me suffer a loss first?" Yang Chengzu snorted, showing his disdain for Xu Yang. Not to mention those Yanling knives, even the spoils of war do not need to be returned to the owner, and allowing the southern soldiers to distribute them by themselves is enough to let the southern soldiers go to the soup.

Military spirit, drills, equipment, supplies, these have all been done within Yang Chengzu's ability, if it is still impossible to fight, it is about to change the sky. According to his own historical knowledge, it seems that the Japanese have not really been able to stir up the Ming Dynasty, that is to say, with the team in their hands that is qualified to compete for the best army of the Ming Dynasty, it should not be too much of a problem to fight a group of robbers.

No matter how strong Xu Yang is, it is just an increased Black Shark Gang, except for the factor of troops, the combat effectiveness between the two will not be great. Although he is not good at commanding, his views on the issue of victory and defeat are basically the same as Leng Feishuang's. That is this battle, how can the Ming Dynasty win, the only thing to consider is how much damage it can give to the enemy, and what factors are fought in the war.

These pirates were far superior to the officers and armies, and after losing the battle, they could flee to the sea of Fujian and Guangdong. If the officers and soldiers pursued through the province, just a single exchange of documents would delay all the fighters. Besides, with the strength of the officers and soldiers of the water division, the water war is not completely grasped. After receiving Xu Yang's letter, Yang Chengzu and Leng Feishuang considered how to lead the enemy to the land and kill and injure the vital forces of Xu Yang's troops to the greatest extent.

Of course, intellectually speaking, everyone understands in their hearts that pirates cannot be killed by killing. Even if Xu Yang's head is beheaded, it won't be long before a new sea king rises on the sea. The worst-case scenario may be the combination of heroes, and for Daming, perhaps the pressure on coastal defense will be greater.

In fact, Yang Chengzu did have the idea of recruiting An and Xu Yang, but the premise was to recruit An, not to cooperate. Xu Yang must first recognize his identity and agree to serve the imperial court. But Xu Yang's attitude is obviously to communicate with the government on an equal footing, which determines that Yang Chengzu's policy towards him can only be to eliminate.

At present, the imperial court sailors are still in the preparation stage, although several new ships have been launched one after another, but if they want to fight Xu Yang's territory, most of them will be sent to death. Even if the battle is won, the casualties on their own side will be very large, and this new army will eventually go to the north to fight, and even use a large part of them as officers in the future, and it cannot be consumed casually. This time, Xu Yang sent it to the door himself, but it saved the strength of the officials and soldiers.

Judging from the strength he has, Xu Yang claims to have more than 10,000 troops, and the enemies he faces this time are several times more than those of the Black Shark Gang. In the eyes of Xinjun Erlang, this is good news that cannot be better, there are more heads that can be beheaded, and the opportunity for meritorious service has come.

Many soldiers and officers who failed to get the waist knife this time have saved up enough strength to fight for the waist knife this time. The leading officers of several battalions of the new army all came to Yang Chengzu to seek battle, vying for the task of taking on the main battle.

Even the army of the Nine Sides may not have such a strong fighting spirit, and this kind of vigor and fighting spirit can be seen in a newly established army for several months, and Leng Feishuang can't help but secretly admire. In addition to this, she also realized that this kind of new army was not something that the White Lotus Sect could learn from the formation to the drill. Even if relying on supernatural powers and faith can make soldiers fearless of death, but let them obey orders like this, and forget about death, except for the imperial court, there is no other force that can do it today.

"You've decided to go to Ningbo? If our speculation is correct, Xu Yang is taking that there as the real target of the attack, and he will not be short of men. You can't prepare too many troops, otherwise he won't take the bait. But with fewer soldiers, aren't you afraid that something really will go wrong? Besides, you have put all your capital in Ningbo this time, once Xu Yang's affairs come to an end, and we will attack elsewhere, we will not be able to mobilize our troops, but we will suffer a big loss. ”

"With you, the female Zhuge here, what am I afraid of?" Yang Chengzu laughed, "People are self-aware, marching and fighting, strategizing, I have nothing to do." But you, the female Zhuge , are proficient in arranging troops, and I believe in your calculations. And what you said makes sense, the most likely place for Xu Yang to attack is Ningbo, and I will bet on you for this treasure. My guard of honor is there, even if Xu Yang once wanted to fight elsewhere and saw my big fish, he would turn around and move towards Ningbo. So I am sure that as long as I go to Ningbo, I will definitely not be disappointed. As for the risk, there is no need to think about it, I will take a battalion head, and there is still half a battalion of soldiers trained in Ningbo, and with this one and a half battalions, nearly 5,000 people are still afraid that they will not be able to eat a small sea loach? ”

"You don't have to praise me, I'm just scrutinizing Xu Yang's actions for people, what I really have to worry about is that someone in the local area leaked the news and leaked our military information. In the past, the officials and troops suppressed bandits, but they were all quietly reported by those big clans, and either they could not find anyone, or they would lose the battle. It was obviously marching on his own territory, but he was ambushed inexplicably. ”

Yang Chengzu smiled confidently, "When it comes to fighting, I can't do it, but when it comes to rectifying people, I'm not weaker than others." I'm looking forward to them getting the news out now, and if not, how can I catch them and deal with them this time. The southeast is strong, it has always been a stone in front of Yang Ji, I finally have the opportunity this time to completely remove this stone, they must not let me down......"

On an unnamed island in the sea of Fujian, Xu Yang looked at the information sent in his hand, "Xu Tai led a soldier to aid Xiangshan, Qi Jingtong led a soldier to aid Fenghua, and Yang Chengzu led a battalion of the New Army to sit in Ningbo?" Each new army is less than 900, plus the original defenders, and the official army in each place is only 1,000 defenders. These two places have no master and no secondary, and the soldiers are few and outnumbered, and they will destroy themselves. ”

A young strong junior on the side looked at the information and frowned, "He killed Xie Ao, it seems that he is not a person who does not know soldiers, will there be fraud in this arrangement?" Besides, there is a battalion of new troops in Ningbo, which seems to be not easy to deal with, and my uncle must not fail to investigate. ”

Xu Yang glanced approvingly at the descendant, "Ah Dong, it is indeed not simple, he is cautious, he is not rash, he does not underestimate the enemy, he is a big person." But why didn't my uncle think of this? The half-battalion new army in Ningbo City has been transferred, and in their place is the half-battalion Taizhou Yong. We let the sons burn and kill as much as they could on the coast, so that he had to divide his troops, and when the remaining troops in his hands were weak, we attacked Ningbo with 5,000 men and horses, and crushed him to death. Tell your sons and daughters to get ready, and as soon as the wind changes, go on the expedition immediately! ”
