Chapter 754: Reinforcements

Obviously, Chen Xie, who flaunted the banner of liberation, did not mean to liberate the Indian people in the slightest. Not only that, but they are ready to continue to oppress and enslave the Indian people, uh, this person is really bad. In the future, India will be roughly such an ecological structure, and the top level will naturally be these "exiled" generals, who can be powerful in India and be the top rulers of India. The next level was the Japanese samurai, who replaced the Mughal nobility.

On top of the heads of these rulers, there is also a big boss, Chen Xie. Well, he's the worst.

In this way, the fate of the Indian people to be oppressed by the three mountains is doomed, and it is also inevitable that they will live in misery. Looking carefully at the division on the map, a large area around Mumbai and Delhi is still Chen Xie's private territory. The best place has been cut down, and then everyone will share it. Moreover, in this part of India, there are also colonizers from Western countries, who also mixed in and oppressed and exploited the Indian people together.

The next day, the military court tried a major case of dereliction of duty by military personnel of the Liaodong Military Region, and sentenced more than 300 officers involved in the case to exile in one go. Moreover, the full text of the handling results of this case was also published in the "Liaodong Daily", which roughly means that under the personal interrogation of Wei Guangzheng's grandfather Chen, the Liaodong military acted vigorously and decisively, and smashed a military economic criminal gang.

The number of generals in the entire overseas alliance army system added up to less than thirty, and this time five were dealt with in one go. The strength and resoluteness of the attitude shocked not only the military and political system of the overseas alliance, but also the Ming court. Chen Xie: What are you going to do? How can there be such a play. Isn't this self-digging grave? This is a stupid trick!

There are many people who gloat, but the actual effect is that the entire military system has been woken up and hurt by this blow. If you want to say that there is no problem elsewhere, it is all nonsense, in Chen Xie's military system over the years, the dominance of soldiers is not a matter of one or two days. These men were exiled to India. In the Ming Dynasty, it is very miserable to deal with. Even within the overseas alliance, this sentence is very heavy.

The high-ranking generals are still like this, and those businessmen who collude with the army are naturally frightened. Exile in India, it's worse than killing your head. That place in India, in the eyes of the Ming people, is more terrible than any miasma land. Businessmen earn a lot of money, so they are naturally afraid of death, after this resolute verdict. The operation of the "tax inspection" was carried out unusually smoothly.

Of course, there are also fools who are reluctant to give up money, and some businessmen who are lucky in their hearts try to transfer assets to get by, and the result is naturally that more than ten people were taken down, and they were arrested by one of them, and the first evil was executed, and the accomplices and their families were exiled.

After the rectification of military discipline. A large number of outstanding officers at the grassroots level have been promoted, and all of them have taken up their posts in just half a month. The work style of the army from top to bottom has been invigorated. Immediately, Chen Xie announced that he would reorganize the Liaodong military, establish the Shenyang Military Region, remove the post of governor, and reassign the post of commander to lead all units of the Liaodong Military Region. This post of commander. For the time being, Chen Xie was concurrently served, and Wang Ben, who was in North Korea and Japan, was urgently transferred to Shenyang to take up the post of deputy commander. Chang Shiren, Li Hunyuan, and Weng Zhengqing took the blame and resigned, and after Chen Xie's approval, they dragged their families and families to board the ship and went south without mentioning it.

When Chen Xie was reorganizing the army in Liaodong. Tokugawa Iemitsu in Edo finally came to the rescue. Although there are only 2,000 people, as long as they hold on for a month, they can withstand it. Well, I also have to choose a daughter who looks good to have and raise, and send it to Master Chen in vain, hoping that there will be a boy left as soon as possible, so as to continue the foundation of the Tokugawa family's rule in Japan.

Tokugawa Iemitsu doesn't think that Chen Xie has fallen in love with Japan, a poor place where birds don't lay eggs, and his old man's willingness to temporarily serve as the king of Japan is nothing more than to give the dog leg a face-saving statement about the past. In the future, it will be their Tokugawa family who will actually rule Japan, but there will be an extra master on their heads. Anyway, Japan is poor to death, and when I look back at what the master likes, it is enough for the Tokugawa family to continue to be powerful in Japan.

It is rare to have a deserted time in the concession wharf, but today is an exception, martial law is imposed in the concession early in the morning, and no one near the wharf is allowed to approach. Tokugawa Iemitsu came to the dock early to wait, because the railway from Shenyang to Incheon had not yet been completed, and the reinforced troops could only board the ship by Lushun and sail along the coastline, and it took five days to arrive.

From the time I saw the fleet to the shore, I waited for more than an hour to see the first soldier who disembarked along the pedal, and these soldiers looked different, wearing black uniforms, big caps, rifles and bags on their backs, and lined up in an orderly manner to land on the shore. The whole process seemed very quiet, and after boarding the dock, under the sound of the respective officers' orders, the soldiers lined up neatly and walked out of the dock one by one. Tokugawa Iemitsu had a smirk on his face, and he had been waiting patiently on the dock, and he finally saw Masayuki Hoshina, which was a sigh of relief, otherwise no one would recognize him, how embarrassing. The bureaucrats of the Ming Dynasty in the concession were very good, and they didn't pay much attention to him when they threw him aside, and they didn't mean to be close to him at all.

After Liu Qingshan met with the consul of the concession who came to greet him, when he was greetings, Masayuki Hoshina led Tokugawa Iemitsu to come. Looking at the consul's disgusted expression, Liu Qingshan didn't learn from his style, but came forward with a smile and saluted: "Liu Qingshan, the commander of the first regiment of the Mountain Brigade of the Ming Empire's Overseas Alliance Army, has seen General Tokugawa. ”

Tokugawa Iemitsu breathed a sigh of relief at this time, this attitude was too important for him. At present, he claims to have 50,000 soldiers who can fight, but in fact, there are only 20,000 people who can play a role on the battlefield, and the rest are all made up. And his opponents, Satsuma and Nagasu and other strong domains, add up to 50,000 capable soldiers, not to mention that the soldiers of the Nagasu domain are the most capable of fighting in Japan.

At present, the Edo defense line is in jeopardy, and although the significance of the arrival of this reinforcement is somewhat symbolic, it plays an important role in boosting the morale of the entire army. In his heart, Tokugawa Iemitsu thought that he was here to protect him, not to guard Edo.

Liu Qingshan didn't come to be Tokugawa Iemitsu's bodyguard, and after a simple greeting, he immediately said: "I and the soldiers are here to fight, please put us on the most dangerous defensive line." Only by striking the most ferocious enemy head-on and demoralizing the rebels will we be able to accomplish our mission. ”

Tokugawa Iemitsu was stunned, how could this be the result. Subconsciously looked at Masayuki Baoshina, and the answer he got was: "Your Excellency, this is indeed what His Excellency Chen Xie, the King of Japan, meant, didn't you read the letter sent by the clipper ship before?" ”

Liu Qingshan didn't have time to listen to their nonsense, so he immediately spoke: "Okay, let's talk about the battlefield situation first, I'll choose a place to fight by myself." After speaking, he asked the guards to take out the map, spread it directly on the ground, pointed to the map and said: "This is a lease, even if the rebels have a hundred guts, they will not touch this place." The most dangerous place should be here. Liu Qingshan's understanding of the entire battlefield situation was beyond Tokugawa Iemitsu's expectations. The point he was referring to was the most important defensive stronghold of the shogunate army at the moment, Hachioji. This direction is also the direction of the main attack of the army of the Choshu Domain, the main force of the rebel army.

The Choshu Domain and the Shogunate had the deepest hatred, and this war was also the most active, and the feudal lord Mori came to the front line many times to direct the battle, and advanced the fastest. Satsuma, another strong domain, was more calm, and the more than 20,000 people commanded by Shimazu were still in Chichibu. On the other hand, there are other people under the banner of the emperor, and their movements are even slower, and the main force is still active in the Nagano area, saying that it is an event, but in fact it is going to grab territory.

The two powerful feudal clans that worked hardest together took control of Kyoto and held the emperor hostage. Therefore, they are most desperate to defeat the shogunate and go back to clean up those who can't do their work.

It was noon, and after Liu Qingshan "sought" Tokugawa Iemitsu's opinion, he gathered his troops, took a short rest, and after having lunch, he immediately set off and went straight to the eighth prince. Tokugawa, who was already impoverished, couldn't take out anything of value at all, and no one would eat the rice balls. What should I do? After thinking about it, he decided to let Baoke Zhengzhi accompany Liu Qingshan to set off, go back and catch some country women, and send them to the eighth prince to serve in the army.

After staying on the ship for so many days, after a short rest after disembarking, the soldiers of the 1st Regiment of the Mountain Brigade were far more effective than Masayuki Hoshina had expected. Especially when marching, the speed is extremely fast. This is also thanks to the Tsunzài in the concession, a smooth road that leads right to Hachioji.

Riding a dwarf Japanese horse, Masayuki Hoshina watched the soldiers of these mountain brigades march, excited and horrified in his heart. What is shocking is that I didn't seem to say the name of this mountain brigade before, why did it change when I arrived in Japan? Is it a distrust of yourself? The excitement is that Chen Xie's thigh is too accurate, the new Japanese king will definitely not be able to stay in Japan for a long time, and people are not uncommon in this poor place, and they will still carry out the rule of Japan in the future.

After an afternoon of continuous marching, the troops were temporarily resting in the field at dusk, and when Liu Qingshan opened the map to look at it, Bao Ke Zhengzhi came up and asked: "Your Excellency, the troops have been marching for an afternoon, I think it is better to go to a nearby village to rest for the night." ”

Liu Qingshan stared at the map for a while and said, "The military situation is like fire, let's march overnight." Our mountain brigade was originally a unit that fought a tough battle, and it was not as delicate as you thought, and this march was nothing. ”

Hoshina Masayuki had no choice but to give up, in fact, the situation on the battlefield was already very dangerous, which Tokugawa Iemitsu introduced in detail. About 15,000 soldiers of the Cheung Chau Domain were besieging several strongholds near Hachioji. If it weren't for the pre-built fortress, Hachioji's 5,000 defenders might have collapsed.
