Chapter 389: Too Brutal

"The ministry said that it was funny, I don't have the ability to sprinkle beans into soldiers to call for wind and rain, this is called general mobilization."

"Zong Dongyuan? Which god is it, my brother will go home and offer one! Cui Chengxiu said stupidly, making Wang Huazhen laugh.

"Lord Ministry, this general mobilization is not a god, but from peacetime to war, it concentrates all human and material resources."

Cui Chengxiu nodded and shook his head again.

"Brother Xiao, the war is naturally full of strength, what is the mobilization of this?"

"The lord of the ministry doesn't know that war is not only a matter of the imperial court, nor is it just the responsibility of being a soldier, all the people have a share! Take Quang Ninh, for example, in addition to the two thousand people who are stationed there. The officers of the Yamen, the soldiers of the Inspection Division, the Yandao Yamen, and the lieutenant commanders all had to obey the orders and prepare for battle. ”

"Oh, I see, just find all the soldiers that the court can use?"

"No, the people in the court are still limited, and ordinary people have to join in. Take the first compound we saw, where there were hitchhikers and bodyguards, who were responsible for transporting goods in peacetime, and in wartime they had to form troops to assist the imperial court in warfare. ”

"Where's the car?" Cui Chengxiu then figured out, no wonder it looks very tough, people just eat the rice on the tip of the knife!

"Brother Xiao, what are those people in blue clothes for, why are there so many?"

"They are all weavers in textile mills!" Wang Huazhen said with a smile: "In the past two years, Liaodong woolen has become more and more prosperous, and woolen wool sells well all over the world. The scale of the workshop is also getting bigger, and there are more than 5,000 weavers in Quang Ninh. ”‘

"So much?" Cui Chengxiu asked in horror: "Why does it look like there are only two or three thousand, is there still half of it?" ”

"Not really, the other half are women, but although they can't go directly to the war, they will be responsible for cooking, treating the wounded, and even patrolling the streets."

Wang Huazhen gave a brief explanation of how to mobilize. Choi Chengxiu was completely dumbfounded.

In his impression, when the enemy comes, it is good if the people do not add to the chaos, if they can take a kitchen knife and hoe and help the court fight, then it will be regarded as a righteous people, and the court will give a decree to praise!

He never thought that he could still play like this!

Coachmen, weavers, porters, bricklayers, doctors, and even cooks were all organized. Each has its own job. In the blink of an eye, Quang Ninh City was like a large military camp, with tens of thousands of soldiers appearing out of thin air.

What other official in the Ming Dynasty can do this! He looked at Zhang Ke and Wang Huazhen's eyes changed, these two guys are simply demons, demons who can control everyone's hearts!

Guangning is like this, and by extension, what if it is the whole of Liaodong?

No wonder Zhang Ke is not afraid of transferring all the men and horses, he can give an order anytime and anywhere, and 100,000 male soldiers can appear. So terrifying. Don't say that Jiannu doesn't have to be afraid, but I'm afraid that even the emperor doesn't care......

Thinking of this, Cui Chengxiu closed his mouth suddenly, he couldn't even spit out a word of what he saw. Otherwise, it will be a bloody storm, and the court will not let go of Zhang Ke, of course, Zhang Ke will not let go of the court. Which of the two is more terrifying, Cui Chengxiu has no bottom at all.

If Zhang Ke knew that he scared Cui Chengxiu like this, he could only laugh.

Although he pushed for the creation of a mobilization system. However, it is indescribable how difficult it is to completely destroy the original social order and rebuild a completely new system.

Now there are only two cities in Liaodong that can do it, one is Yizhou, which is the most loyal to Zhang Ke, and has a large number of military workshops and military families, as long as Zhang Ke gives an order, even if it is a sea of swords and fires, these people will not hesitate.

Then there is Quang Ninh, where the economy is the most developed, with the largest number of woolen workers and transport workers, which is convenient for organization and mobilization. And the terrible memory of the Mongol-Tatar siege a few years ago remains.

Hearing that they were going to guard against enemy attacks, the workers of Quang Ninh took the initiative to participate, and before entering the factory, they were all militarized and regularly pulled out for exercises.

Although it is very far from the real Yizhou soldiers, it is much stronger than the ordinary Ming army, and even the 100,000 army that Sun Ge Lao painstakingly made.

In more than two days, Zhang Ke organized a total of more than 13,000 people, plus the original regular army, and the total strength exceeded 15,000. But it didn't make him relax at all, whether he was a real warrior or not, he only knew when he saw blood.

"Yongzhen, I have gathered all the defeated soldiers, almost 20,000 people." Wang Huazhen said.

Zhang Ke had a cold face and asked casually, "Can it be used?" ”

"Alas, I won't have to worry if I can use it." Wang Huazhen sighed: "Even if there are no Jiannu people in it, they are afraid that Jiannu will die, and it is estimated that they will definitely flee from the wind, not only can they not fight, but they will also become a burden!" ”

"It's all a bunch of ruffians, it's long gone!" Zhang Ke sighed: "Go, all of them are used as hard labor, building low walls and small forts outside the city. If Jiannu comes, drive them away. ”

"Chase away?"

"Do you still waste food in the city? Leave it to fend for yourself! ”

Wang Huazhen nodded thoughtfully and said, "That's the only way to do it." ”

The black clouds overwhelmed the city, and the people of Quang Ninh knew that the enemy they faced would be even more brutal, so they had to work day and night, and the more they prepared, the more difficult it would be.

The low walls and ditches outside the city were next to each other, and according to Zhang Ke's order, diamond-shaped castles were built at all four gates, ready to be battled.

The military and civilians were busy when suddenly a cloud of dust rolled up from a distance.

"Oh no, the Tartars are coming!"

Someone screamed, but as soon as he screamed, his head exploded.

"What's the name of the ghost, don't you see it's coming from the west!"

With apprehension, everyone looked into the distance, and the banner they were waving was the Yizhou soldiers.

Not long after, a general wearing bright armor rushed over and shouted: "Go and inform the Marquis of Dingliao, the last general Qiao Gui is here!" ”

Since Qiao Gui followed Zhang Ke, his official position has been rising, but compared to his brother who was admitted to Wu Zhuangyuan, he seems to be unknown.

But Qiao Gui has been doing the most important job, which is to train new recruits.

This is not just about training troops, but also about selecting outstanding personnel for training, exploring the most advanced tactics, popularizing new equipment, and so on.

To put it simply, Qiao Gui is the principal of the military academy and the head of the officer corps!

This kind of confidant position, if you are not a real cronie, will never be able to bear it.

Hearing Qiao Gui coming, Zhang Ke hurried out of the city to greet him, and the two brothers hugged each other.

"We can finally fight side by side!" There were tears welling up in Qiao Gui's eyes.

Zhang Ke patted him on the shoulder excitedly and said with a smile: "How is it, are you sure?" ”

"Of course!" Qiao Gui laughed and said: "See, this time I brought five hundred people, don't look at the number of people, but all of them are good hands, and they are at least Wu Chang and Shi Chang in the army, and even Bai Zongzong is no problem." ”

Everyone knows that the core of the army is the middle and lower-level officers of Gao Suzhì, and as long as these people are there, they will soon be able to pull up a strong army.

With Qiao Fu's arrival, Zhang Ke's confidence suddenly skyrocketed.

Come on, Huang Taiji!

Fight a decisive battle!

With the arrival of Qiao Gui, Zhang Ke had an extra chip in his hand.

At this moment, less than twenty miles away, two teams of centaurs were frantically pursuing.

Tang Hui raided Zhenghongqi and killed more than 2,000 Jiannu, so painful that Dai Shan almost fainted, he killed all the way, and he didn't die so many people!

If you want to die Tang Hui, you will never relax.

They pursued all the way, and Tang Hui's spears ran out, so they could only rely on fire and fight and retreat. However, after all, they did not have as many Jiannu people, and in the face of the dense rain of arrows, the number of dead and wounded became more and more alarming.

Tang Hui's shoulder was even hit by an arrow, and the only arm became heavier and heavier.

"Damn, is it possible that Lao Tzu is going to die in the hands of the Tartars!"

At this moment, he suddenly saw a small castle in front of him, with five or six of them, and the soldiers guarding the castle hurriedly waved their flags at Tang Hui and them.

"Let's go, this way!"

The cavalry galloped past, and the Jiannu behind them pursued closely, and the distance between the two sides became closer and closer.

"Ignition!"

The watchout Ming army waved the flag again, the fuse was ignited, and at the moment when Jiannu rushed to twenty or thirty steps, an explosion sounded.

The earth trembled, and countless gunpowder smoke poured out, as if the gates of hell were instantly opened, devouring the charging Jiannu. The stones flew, the flames flickered, and no Jiannu was spared.

At least 100 people were killed by the explosion alone, and corpses were strewn all over the ground.

Tang Hui, who had not run far away, restrained the war horse, and said to himself in a daze: "It's too energetic, it's too brutal!" (To be continued......)
