Chapter 6: Mentoring (1)
The Ming Mediterranean fleet finally came, they arrived at Mahe Island first, the soldiers stationed on the island originally wanted to send the supply ship to report the news, but the Mediterranean Fleet refused to rest on Mahe Island, it is indeed such a large fleet, and it is difficult for the military station on Mahe Island to provide supplies, so they directly sailed to Mugudu under the guidance of the supply ship.
Four destroyers in front, ten battleships behind, and dozens of landing ships and supply ships of various types.
After Ding Yi reported on the lookout at the lighthouse in the concession early in the morning, he called Cao Jixiang to take people to prepare food and drink, and then took Morena, Wen Fatzi and others, including Mahmood, the city lord, to wait on the edge of the dock.
The sailors of the Mediterranean Fleet had long since changed into snow-white uniforms, lined up on the side of the ship, and raised their hands to salute the big flag with the word "Ming" on the pier. Thousands of years later, well-informed people see such a posture, and their blood is boiling, not to mention the people of this era? There were more and more onlookers on the side of the pier, and they couldn't help but nod their heads in admiration, feeling that this Ming Kingdom was really powerful.
As soon as the landing ship converted from a large treasure ship docked, a group of soldiers in black uniforms loaded with live ammunition and landed on land under the guidance of the Mingzi battle flag, some of the teams occupied the beachhead with a clear division of labor, and some stood quietly in separate columns, waiting for Ding Yi's review.
When have you ever seen such a soldier? Those locals whispered: "No wonder in the concession, those who spit on the Ming soldiers will be put in a flail to death." Such military might, tsk. Amazing! "Is this Ming man really not bullying people? It's scary to watch! "There are only twenty or thirty Ming people in the concession, and these thousands of Ming people. Didn't you give them all the bones and bones, and they didn't rely on ......?"
Morena and Mahmoud, who were standing beside Ding Yi, also had confident smiles on their faces, and such an army gave them stronger confidence and loyalty to follow Ding Yi.
But Cao Jixiang noticed that Ding Yi's face was not very good-looking, so he leaned closer and asked, "Young Master, are you better to sit down?" You can't go to the army for as long as you can't stand? It is the magistrate who goes out to meet the peak. Ten miles out of the city, it is also to sit and wait first, how can you stand and wait all the way like this? ”
"Don't talk nonsense." Ding Yi was amused by him with a slight smile on his face, "Lao Cao, don't be a little clever here, you hurry up to supervise the food and boiling water, and if you are on a business trip for a while, you are the only one who asks." Seeing that Cao Jixiang was ordered to do it, Ding Yi stopped him again and said in a deep voice. Beware of poisoning. ”
"The old slave can be saved, young master can rest assured!"
Cao Jixiang patted his chest and didn't mention it when he went on an errand, but the fat man here came up again: "Young master, it's not right." ”
Ding nodded and said, "Let's see." ”
Soon Huang Xiaoyang, who was wearing a snow-white navy uniform. He led the officers who were not on duty in the fleet, ran down, and saluted and reported to Ding Yi after lining up. When Ding suddenly gave the order to take a break. The army commander who came with the ship also ran over to salute Ding Yi and reported: "Sir." The dragoon brigade of the fourth division of the Ming Dynasty should reach 4,268 people. There are 4,268 people, all of whom are here, please instruct, Commander Zhu Yong, the report is complete! ”
"Huang Xiaoyang." Ding Yi yelled at Huang Xiaoyang, who was wearing a black blindfold on the side.
"Here!"
"I order that the dragoon brigade of the Fourth Division of the Ming Dynasty be temporarily taken over by Admiral Huang Xiaoyang, commander of the Mediterranean Fleet; Admiral Huang cooperated with Captain Wen of the Mountain Special Brigade and subordinate the personnel of the Dragoon Brigade of the Fourth Division of the Ming Dynasty as planned. ”
"Yes." After Huang Xiaoyang saluted Ding Yi, he went to hand over to Wen Fatzi.
"You bring the relevant personnel and report to me immediately!" Ding Yi whispered to Zhu Yong.
Even Morena was moved open, and outside the door and on the roof was a cordon laid by the thirty or so veterans led by Bulgari.
There were only Ding Yi and Zhu Yong in the house, and Cao Jixiang who was waiting on the side.
"You don't have to stand up, just sit and say, speak." Ding Yi instructed indifferently at Zhu Yong.
Zhu Yong said with a wry smile: "Sir, there is no one, so I can only be transferred here, and now Feiqiu is in charge of the people's military work and militia training in Guangdong, Guangxi, and Yunyuan, and a lot of things have happened in the past year or so." ”
Ding nodded and motioned for him to continue, of course, there was a big change, otherwise why didn't Wang Yue come?
Just at the dock, he and Wen Fatzi felt that something was wrong, that is, the landing ship was wrong, according to the soldiers of the Fourth Division of the Ming Dynasty, the landing ship was reduced by three-quarters, and sure enough, after finishing the army, they found that only one brigade came, and Zhu Yongchong, who was originally in charge of the people's military work, was the commander of the troops.
"Timur's grandson Busain and the Aries ruler Uzon. Hassan joined forces and defeated Jahan, the monarch of the Black Sheep Dynasty. Shah, and Jahan. Shah teamed up with Abu. Said. Mirza was also killed by Busain. After that, Busain unified the disintegrating and divided Timurid Empire, defeated the Chagatai Khanate, and swung his army into Tianzhu! Zhu Yong said in a hurry, he was originally in charge of martial arts work, and it was indeed unavailable that he would let him lead the troops here.
Cao Jixiang had eyes, and without waiting for Ding's instructions, he poured a glass of water and waited on the side, Ding saw it, nodded and said to Zhu Yong: "Drink a glass of water first." "This thing is not quite right, although Ding Yi can't remember the historical chronology, and he can't even remember what the monarchs of the Black Sheep and White Aries dynasties are called, but he still remembers the general historical trend.
It is true that the Aries dynasty won, but it should be that after Mirza killed the grandson of the lame Timur, Busain, then unified the Timurid Khanate, defeated the Chagatai Khanate, and then went to join forces with the Black Sheep Dynasty, and was defeated by the Aries Dynasty, and finally Mirza was killed!
"It's messed up, it's all messed up." Ding Yi shook his head, maybe because his arrival changed history? He didn't know.
Zhu Yong, who drank some water, calmed his breath, and then reported to Ding Yi what made him even more headache: "Wu Sizang came to report urgently, according to Jinyiwei's report, I am afraid that it is the natives of the border, attached to Bu Sain, and began to invade Wu Sizang. "Wu Si Zang is Tibet, this year is called this name," not only the Uszang Du Command Envoy and Duo Gan Wei Du Command Envoy sent envoys to Beijing, but also the Great Treasure Dharma King, Mahayana Dharma King, Dabao Dharma King, and the Interpretation King, Zanshan King, Guardian King, Interpretation King, and Auxiliary Sect King, all sent envoys to Beijing to report the emergency. ”
Tibet is the inherent territory of China, from the Ming Dynasty three kings, five kings of the policy of the seal, as well as the establishment of the two capital divisions, it can be seen that from the political zhì to the military, are under the rule of the Ming Dynasty. Not only the capital was in an emergency, but even the magistrates of these Dharma kings and auxiliary kings also came to complain, and it was really a side matter.
"In this way, it is reasonable that Constantinople is still supporting." Ding Yi spread out the map, listening to Zhu Yong's report, and made marks on the map, "The Timurid Empire has recovered, and the Ottomans have caught fire in the backyard, so of course, it is impossible to pull out Constantine with all his might......" He looked at Zhu Yong and said to him, "continued. ”
Zhu Yong smiled bitterly: "The Beijing master issued an order, and the Holy Lord ordered Instructor Wei Wencheng to go to Beijing immediately and take over the post of ambassador of the Yamen of the Security Bureau; The military department also came down with an official document and a holy decree, and Du Zhanzhi took over as the chief military officer of Liangguang; At the same time, his uncle served as the chief military officer of Wu Sizang, and the new general of Pingxi was sealed to his uncle, leading the first division of the Ming Dynasty into Wu Sizang, with the eunuch Wang Yi as the lieutenant officer of the supervising army, and Shi Pu as the supervisor. ”
Not only that, Yingzong also took Fang Ying as the chief military officer of Yunyuan, and Wang Yue supervised the division to prevent the Timurid Empire from advancing Yunyuan from the direction of India. Now in Guangdong, Guangxi, and Yunyuan, only the Fourth Division of the Ming Dynasty and the militia are supporting, and before Zhu Yong set off, two divisions of militia were requisitioned and transferred in Guangdong and Guangxi, and the soldiers of the guard station did not need to be counted on, almost all of them were professional peasants, and the semi-full-time militia trained by Zhu Yong was not a big problem to fight the guards and a thousand households.
Wang Shichang wanted to go to sea, but several teachers and wives taught him not to act rashly; On the side of the Beijing Division, the two teachers also sent letters, saying that Wang Shichang and the Fourth Division of the Ming Dynasty must not act rashly. The disciple also has a will and an official document here, please take a look at it. Saying that, Zhu Dong took out the oilcloth bag from the cowhide saddle bag, and when he opened it, there was a holy decree, official documents, and a large stack of letters.
The Holy Decree is very clear and concise: "...... The border is in turmoil, and the state affairs are difficult...... If the class teacher returns to the court, wait for the border troubles to calm down, and then take care of the seven seas...... Qing should make a decision...... that is, to give the initiative to Ding Yi, but obviously hope that he will return to Daming. If this is not clear, Yingzong learned from Emperor Jing and also got a letter from home, then it is very clear, "The country is or the minister, who can ask the military strategy?" ”
Yingzong always felt that Ding Yi was the person he could trust the most.
The official document of the Ministry of War mainly explained that the Fourth Division of the Ming Dynasty could not go to sea as planned, because Ding Yi did not intend to be the emperor of the soil in Yunyuan, and the deployment of military operations was recorded by the General Staff Office to the Ministry of War; There is also an official document that also hopes that Ding Yi will return to Daming as a teacher.
Even Yu Qian also wrote letters, mainly saying that Shi Pu is old, Wang Ji is also old, and there are really few Wenchen who can supervise the division and command the army. It even said, "If the teacher has something, the disciple will obey it, and now the disciple is safe?" "It means to ask Ding Yi, do you want him to supervise the teacher by himself?
Shi Pu also has a letter, but it is very bland, mainly because he is old, and the supervisor also tries his best to supervise the military food and soldiers, give convenience to the generals, and will not interfere too much in Ding Ruyu's arrangement.
And in Wang Ji's old immortal letter, he is different from others, he hopes that Ding Yi will not come back, and he will go to heal the seven seas with peace of mind; I also hope that Ding Yi will recommend him to be a superintendent, a person in his seventies, he really feels that he is a young man.
Li Xian, Shang Lu and Zhang Yu all persuaded him to return to work early.
"This brigade came with the fleet for the safety of Mr. Guard." Zhu Yong said cautiously on the side.
Ding Yi really didn't know what to say except for a wry smile. (To be continued......)
PS: The starting point of these two days is arranged for a limited time and free, and it will end in the afternoon of the day after tomorrow.
