May 30, 18th year of Wucheng? Beihai Metropolitan Protectorate Selengafort

An Wenhua, the new metropolitan protector who had just arrived with the rotation troops, was seeing off Kuching, looking at the old general who was about to retire in the future, An Wenhua asked from the bottom of his heart: "Boss, what else do you have to explain before leaving?" ”

Kuching, whose head was already completely gray, thought about it, and warned in the tone of standing on the last shift: "Lord An, the old man has already explained everything, the only thing to worry about is that the old man is still facing behind, and the troops in Beihai are insufficient, once the Rakshasas make a comeback, I am afraid it will be very difficult to expect the Mongol soldiers to make a difference." ”

"What does the boss mean is that a river squadron must be kept in the North Sea?" An Wenhua nodded. "Xia Guan understands, but this matter still has to ask the old man to come back and help run."

Kuching smiled gloomily: "Sealing the wolf Juxu and expanding the Beihai Sea, it has also made the old man famous in history, and the old man will not want to see his success or failure, Lord An, it's not too early, so don't pass it over." ”

An Wenhua looked at Kuching's lonely back: "Boss, please take ??????care of yourself all the way."

Seeing Kuching and his entourage slowly disappear from sight, An Wenhua turned his head to several subordinate officials and said, "Lord Wang, Lord Murong, please ask the two of you for the next moment." ”

According to the latest system of the Chinese imperial court, there is no permanent town army and field troops under the Dadu Protectorate, at most it has jurisdiction over a number of Shence Army and Mongolian Volunteer Army, but unlike the Lingyamen Metropolitan Protectorate with the Longxiang Army and the Fubo Army, the Khalkha Metropolitan Protectorate and the Beihai Metropolitan Protectorate are facing the threat of the Jungar Empire and Tsarist Russia respectively, so in addition to the Mongolian Volunteer Army, each has a permanent Xia Army field force. However, due to the long road and the difficulty of supply, there is only one cavalry division of the Khalkha Metropolitan Protectorate distributed along the post road of Pingdiquan-Eren-Uzhige (Kulen)-Irgen (Ske) Fort under construction, and as for the vicinity of Uriya Sutai, where the Metropolitan Protectorate is still in the shadows, there are only one or two ranger posts stationed. The situation was similar in the Beihai Metropolitan Protectorate, and after Kuching returned south with a rotating force, there was also only one cavalry division left behind. Although the Xia army had been ordered to dismantle many small settlements, the strength of 6,000 troops was distributed in the vast Beihai region, which could only be said to be a drop in the ocean, and it was very difficult to defend Chengdu, let alone expand the ruling area.

Therefore, when he heard the request of An Daduhu, Wang Ying and Murong Jingming, the two officers in charge of the army, looked embarrassed, but Shangguan's words could not help but reply, so he reluctantly responded after a long time: "Xiaguan and others must do their best." ”

When An Wenhua returned to the government satisfied, Wang Ying and Murong Jingming found Sima Zheng Wenqing of the Metropolitan Protectorate.

"Lord Mu, although Nebuchu and Hulun Lake City are now garrisoned by the 17th Division of the Longxiang Army, which belongs to the Upper Reaches of the Heilongjiang River, and there is no need for the 2nd Division of the Hussar Army, I have a total of 6,000 men and horses, and I have to be responsible for the transportation and post road construction of the southeast and southeast roads, and there are not enough soldiers and horses to prevent the Rakshasas from coming back. Not to mention continuing to attack Russian towns such as Upper Angarask, Uyansk, and Spizino in the north. "Although Wang Ying, who is the commander of the second division of the hussars, is new to Beihai, he has definitely put in a lot of effort, so he is right." Now most of the protectors want our department to be a hundred, how can this be made. ”

Zheng Wenqing, the Sima of the Ministry of War, has no right to directly command the troops, so he spread his hands: "Lord Wang, the lower official is also a newcomer, and he hasn't even figured out the clue, how can he give guidance to the adults, and he can't become a soldier." ”

"Lord Wang and I know that Lord Mu will not be able to become a soldier, but the order to recruit Mongolian volunteers must be signed by you." Murong Jingming was in charge of the Beihai capital to protect the Mongol rebels in the capacity of the Privy Council of the North Privy Council, so his requirements were simple. "Now that the Beihai army is insufficient, we still need to sign 15,000 Mongolian volunteers."

"Fifteen thousand?" If compared with the Kuching era, this 15,000 soldiers and horses are indeed not much, but Kuching at that time wiped out the local and Korqin people, but now, the various departments that have just stabilized are not able to come up with so many men. "Lord Murong, is the normal team capable of commanding so many soldiers and horses?" Zheng Wenqing shook his head. "Even if adults have the ability to train so many soldiers and horses, what about the grain and grass? Now that all the ministries are already regarded as the people of the court, how can they be allowed to raise their own funds as they did when they were guilty of meritorious service? This is not in line with the imperial court's intention to pacify the frontier. ”

"The purpose of the imperial court to pacify the frontier is good, but at the moment that Beihai is still at war with the Oros, how can the Mongols be considered stable? For the sake of the future, the Mongols should agree to the army. Murong Jingming argued with reason. As for the difficulty of getting the Horqin people and the local Mongols to cooperate with the grain, it is true, but most of the chiefs have not officially summoned the chiefs, and they take the opportunity to take the opportunity to take advantage of it, and they don't believe that they can't squeeze out oil and water. ”

"Lord Murong's words make sense." Wang Ying also helped. "At most, make it clear to the Mongolian ministries that after signing this fifteen-thousand-horse cavalry, once there is a war, the Metropolitan Protectorate will no longer recruit troops and horses from the Mongolian ministries to fight."

"The Mongolian volunteer army is a recruitment, not a garrison." Zheng Wenqing did not have the courage to do something that obviously violated the laws of the imperial court. "Forced expropriation is not in line with the will of the imperial court." Zheng Wenqing also used Kuching as an example. "Even the ancient generals only dare to call the Korqin and Buryats in the name of atonement, how dare you and I trespass, unless the two lords can persuade An Dadu to give an order in the name of acting cheaply, it will be difficult for the lower officials to obey their orders."

It's not impossible to ask An Wenhua for orders, but can An Wenhua agree? I'm afraid that only when the Russian army appears on the shore of Lake Baikal will he be able to give this order - after all, as the protector of the capital, An Wenhua will only think more than Zheng Wenqing.

Although she knew that it was unlikely, Wang Ying still grabbed Murong Jingming's hand and said noisily: "Let's go, let's go to Lord An, you don't necessarily want the horses to run and the horses not to eat grass, if you really refuse to transfer troops, losing Beihai is a crime of non-war." ”

"Not a war crime?" Mu Keqing smiled bitterly, so that Wang Ying and Murong are not responsible, and in the end, it is still him who is unlucky. "Why should the two adults do this?" As a last resort, Mu Keqing had no choice but to soften his figure. "The 15,000 military committee really can't be recruited, even if the troops are recruited from the various ministries now, there may not be many recruits, it's better to do this, when most of the capital guards the ministries to announce the announcement, the lower officials will tell a few Mongolian grandfathers about the recruitment, maybe they can get some support in terms of manpower and grain and grass, as for the problem of troops, this official will immediately write to the imperial court, and ask the imperial court to transfer the Mongolian righteous army from Songdesert and other places to enter the Beihai, two adults, this time should be satisfied."

Seeing that there was nothing to squeeze out from Mu Keqing's side, Wang Ying and Murong Jingming had no choice but to handle it: "Satisfied, how can you be satisfied, but the adults are doing their best, how can we wait for good or bad, I just ask the adults to go to the court as soon as possible, we can wait, the Rakshasa soldiers from afar will not give us a chance??????"

Coming out of Sima Gong's office, Wang Ying immediately explained to Murong Jingming: "Lord Murong, I still have to trouble you to keep an eye on the affairs of the Mongolian army, I always feel that it is not safe to wait for the rabbit, so I am ready to personally lead the troops to the north to attack, no matter whether or not I can achieve the grain and the enemy, in short, I can't let the Rakshasa people in the north have the intention of going south." ”

Murong Jingming thought for a while agreeing and reminded: "It's not impossible to attack Oros in the north, but adults must remember that it is not to fall in love with war, in case the main force of the Rakshasa people comes eastward in a big way, I am afraid that it will not be able to stop it with the defenders scattered all over the place and the Mongolian rebels who don't know when they will be transferred." ”

"If there are not enough Mongol volunteers, I am afraid that the second division of the hussars will not be able to stop the army of Oros if they stay in Beihai." The Xia army could not distinguish the difference between the Russian regular army and the Cossack cavalry, so it took it for granted that the defeat of nearly 10,000 Russian troops in the previous time would attract several times the enemy, but it did not consider that the transfer of tens of thousands of troops from the west was also an unbearable burden for Russia. "But don't worry, Lord Murong, this time I will only take a light cavalry regiment and two ranger posts to the north, and the rest of the mobile forces will be commanded by you, Lord Murong, once you detect that the Russians have an attempt to cross the lake, you may be able to attack them."

"Take advantage of its unstable foothold and drive down the North Sea in one fell swoop?" Murong Jingming chuckled. "If there are more than 5,000 cavalry, maybe they can do it, besides, the Rakshasa people have small gunboats on the lake, even if they can really defeat their vanguard in one fell swoop, I am afraid that the casualties will be great." Speaking of this, Murong Jingming suddenly thought thoughtfully. "Lord Wang, the Rakshasas in the north are only afraid of insignificance, it is better to attack Irkutsk directly, maybe it can delay the actions of the Rakshasas."

"The north side is insignificant?" Wang Ying asked rhetorically. "How so? As for the rush to Irkutsk, how was it possible to cross the lake? ”

"Lord Wang, when the ancient lord besieged the cities of Beihai, was there an enemy from the north rushing to help?"

Wang Ying responded in surprise: "Didn't you say that the Rakshasa soldiers in Yakutsk had rushed to the aid of Nebuchu? ”

"Yakutsk only sent more than 2,000 soldiers and horses, and said that it will not be able to support in the future, let's not say whether this is true or not, but it can only threaten Nebuchu, but Nebuchu can be supported by the fleet in the upper reaches of Heilongjiang and the 17th Division of the Longxiang Army, so there is no need to worry about it." The more Murong Jingming spoke, the smoother he became. "And Severobaikalsk, Verkhniy Angarsk and other places have not sent reinforcements since the beginning of the captivity, so it can be seen that reinforcements may not be sent in the future." Murong Jingming didn't know that the Russians in the north had also tried to organize reinforcements to go south, but before they could make the trip, they encountered the Yunyu Department who was destined to go north, and as a result, they could no longer afford to go south. "As for the rush to Irkutsk, there is no need to go from the lake."

"A detour to the East Sayan Mountains? It's not a good road. ”

"You can borrow someone from the Khalkha Metropolitan Protectorate." Murong Jingming nodded. "Aren't the Tangnu Ulianghai tribes attached?"

Wang Ying restrained the horse commander and took the test, and it took a long time before he said viciously: "It's done, Lord Murong, in addition to the garrison soldiers and horses in each fort, I will leave a heavy armor regiment for you, and you must keep an eye on the Oros in the north." ”

"It's easy to say," Murong Jingming can't be polite, just persuade. "But Lord Wang doesn't need to be in a hurry, it will take time to contact the Khalkha side, so it's better to rest for a while and take the opportunity to revise the attack plan, so that you can act calmly at that time??????."
