205 Hateful Gold Thread (2)
On April 23, the seventeenth year of Chongzhen, Luo Yukun finally got the first batch of 100 stone of grain and various weapons supported by Liu Fangliang. The number of weapons is not large, and it can only arm a personal guard of five hundred people, and it is obvious that Liu Fangliang does not want to see an overly powerful future subordinate. One hundred stones of grain is not a small amount, Liu Fangliang naturally can't conjure it out of thin air, so he can only make an appointment with Luo Yukun for a time and place for them to "grab".
It was Dong Xueli's military rations that were robbed.
Dong Xueli found out that there were more than 10,000 "thieves", and according to his urine nature, he had to surrender if he ran away. However, Liu Fangliang was encouraged by warm words and threatened by military law in the back, forcing him to the front line with both soft and hard methods, and suffered a lot.
……
The newly sent combat staff officer from the East Palace was surnamed Zhu Mingjiajun, wearing a coarse cloth robe, just like a teacher in a private school in the township. Although he spoke slowly, he was clear and firm, and he was clearly a qualified fighter.
However, he is also a serious staff officer.
Zhu Jiajun was the first batch of representatives of the East Palace system to transfer from soldiers to staff officers. Although these East Palace guards were illiterate at the beginning, and they were originally included in the requirements of the soldiers, as time went by, some people were good at learning and some were good at martial arts, and they gradually formed a division. After successive battles in Henan and Shanxi, some people were injured and disabled, and they could no longer go out as soldiers, so Zhu Cihong launched a movement in the army to "turn from war to part" and encouraged soldiers to strengthen their cultural study and become staff officers.
Such a staff officer is different from a hired clerk who lacks combat knowledge, and is not like a requisitioned veteran who is familiar with all kinds of ills. They are more loyal to the East Palace and have no shortage of knowledge of combat.
Zhu Jiajun injured his arm in the Battle of Ruyang. Although there was a green shirt doctor with the army, he was on the battlefield at the time, from a sneak attack to a confrontation charge, and he lost the best treatment time all the way, and after being cured, his left arm lost his strength. Can't lift heavy objects.
Zhu Jiajun was unwilling to withdraw to Beijing first, waiting for the division of land and farming. He found a trainer, used all the military salary and bonuses to invite two more talents, took turns to fight, and insisted on thoroughly understanding the various drills and regulations of the East Palace from beginning to end, word by word, and passed the first-class diploma examination. Obtained the qualification of a staff officer.
Because he already had the rank of second lieutenant flag captain, he was directly incorporated into the staff team of the bureau and was responsible for combat planning.
Xiao Mo led the two bureaus to rush and kill Li Zi's formation, and Zhu Jiajun was the only accompanying staff officer. Breaking through from the northern mountains was the first suggestion he put forward and was adopted by Xiao Mo. After returning to the camp, Zhu Jiajun was promoted by one level, transferred to the General Staff Bureau of the Division, and awarded the rank of lieutenant.
This time, Zhu Cihong transferred Zhu Jiajun out. Another level was added, and he was appointed as Luo Yukun's chief of staff of the Sichuan Barracks, that is, the chief of staff of the battalion. According to the staff system of the East Palace, each battalion and bureau has its own staff organization, which is mainly responsible for coordination and assistance in intelligence, operations, training, logistics, and military orders.
The establishment of staff officers is one level lower than that of the headquarters, so the battalion has a staff department, and the headquarters has a staff department, and the department has a staff bureau. The bureau has a staff team. Although Zhu Jiajun's military rank has only been increased by one level, he has been promoted by two levels in terms of position.
Because Zhu Jiajun has experienced every link from scratch. Know the psychology of the homeless. Back then, he also felt that he couldn't survive so he signed up for the recruitment and joined the East Palace. On the first day of his arrival, he got out of the army and found that except for the Sichuan army, the camp was basically in a state of chaos, and there was not even a single border defense, and some people came today and left tomorrow. There is no appearance of an army at all.
Not to mention compared with the East Palace system, even other military towns in the Ming Dynasty cannot be so chaotic.
- This is a rogue...... It's still a rogue from ten years ago!
Zhu Jiajun said secretly in his heart. He found Chen Chong and Luo Yukun that night, and the three of them discussed for most of the night, and finally decided to train the troops according to the standards of the East Palace as soon as possible and eliminate the old and weak. Drive those who lack military potential to the Lexia Line. The campaign to build forts and forts is in full swing there, and a large amount of labor is needed to speed up the progress of the project and carry out the production of tuntian.
In addition to leaving 3,200 elite soldiers as the main battalion, the rest of the 5,000 Sichuan soldiers were assigned to various homeless teams, the lowest was a squad leader, until the battalion officer above. It was only at this time that Luo Yukun knew how many people he had, which was more than 10,000 more than the number he had originally counted.
Zuihou's force consisted of three battalions and 12,300 men. Zhu Jiajun divided two independent thousand headquarters and sent more than 30,000 displaced people, the elderly and weak, to the front line of Lexia for resettlement. Without any worries, and someone gave him weapons and food, Luo Yukun suddenly felt relaxed, and he didn't even bother to think about how to fight, so he handed it all over to Zhu Jiajun.
"Dong Xueli's department is now stationed in Dongchang Mansion, and it is not possible to wait for him to come down to fight us. I thought that it was possible to divide the troops and cut off the way behind them. The three battalions were stationed in Twenty Miles, Lijiazhai, and Shazhen on the outskirts of Liaocheng, and formed a half-moon shape from east to west to see if he could fight. Among them, this formation is in the middle, no matter who he hits, we can respond as soon as possible. If he didn't dare to fight, he would have to flee north. Since Liu Fangliang wants to see him die, he is bound to secretly provide the time and route for Dong Xueli's retreat north, and we only need to send a partial division to capture him. ”
Zhu Jiajun pointed to the map on the table and drew a series of routes that were mixed with fiction and reality, indicating the march path and the location of the garrison. This camp dominated by displaced people seriously lacked mature officers and soldiers, not to mention making sand tables, and even exploring the path was a novice, which was much weaker than when the East Palace guard battalion first marched.
Luo Yukun looked at the map carefully, listened to Zhu Jiajun's explanation, and said, "Okay!" Just hit it like that! If it really doesn't work, let's knock down Dongchang Mansion! ”
Zhu Jiajun grinned and didn't say anything. The prefecture is different from the county, and the fall of a government is a big crime, no matter whether it is Ming or Shun, it will not let go of the local guards, how can it be so easy to fight down? In his opinion, this group of people and horses was "invincible" all the way, precisely because they did not go to the city of Fucheng very sensibly, but only took a small advantage in the county, otherwise they would have already alarmed the army to conquer it. Therefore, his tactical arrangement was mainly to ambush outside the city, and he also avoided Dongchangfu City on the route.
However, Zhu Jiajun was still wrong.
After the three battalions were stationed in the three towns, they directly cut off the Grand Canal, and the entire Dongchang Mansion was shaken. The wealthy families of Linqingzhou are ready to flee into the mountains and villages, and they have begun to pack up their horse teams with fast movements.
Dong Xueli really fled north overnight and went to Liu Fangliang for help.
Liu Fangliang really did not disappoint Luo Yukun and Zhu Jiajun, and sent someone to Dong Xueli's retreat route overnight.
Luo Yukun took advantage of the situation to pursue and besieged Dongchang Mansion.
Yin Song Bingkui of Dashun's Dongchang Mansion is not a stupid boy who has never seen the world. He is a native of Hongdong County, Shanxi, and was born as a Jinshi. With Jinshi as the governor of a prefecture, it can be known without asking: it must be that Zhu Ming has not had time to be promoted to Beijing. He was also the prefect of Dongchang Mansion in the late Ming Dynasty, and when he saw that Dashun was returning to the sky and people, he surrendered to the Dashun army very quickly.
Seeing that the Dashun army fled north, a group of thieves with the Luozi banner besieged the city, Song Bingkui repeated his old skills, led the squires and elders of the mansion, brought wine and meat, silver and silk, and greeted the "Wang Shi".
The canal passes through the city of Liaocheng, Fuzhi, Dongchang Province, bringing a great deal of wealth. Although it was sacked by the Manchurians in the previous two years, once it was restored, the wealthy merchants who had fled to the mountains also returned to this main artery of the country to draw nutrients from it and grow stronger.
As a logistics hub that is easy to attack and difficult to defend, the commercial metropolis needs a local guard like Song Bingkui who can see the wind and steer and protect himself and the local government. After Luo Yukun entered the city, he did not chase stolen goods and donations, which also made Song Bingkui's reputation climb to the peak again. The thank-you gifts given to Song Bingkui by the wealthy businessmen were no less than the military salaries donated to Luo Yukun.
Luo Yukun came out of the city from Beiguan, still looking back at Dongchang Mansion with some reluctance, and said to Zhu Jiajun who sent him: "You really don't need to move here for His Highness?" ”
"No," Zhu Jiajun affirmed, "Your Highness will be here soon, and it will be troublesome to move back and forth." ”
"Okay, listen to you." Luo Yukun muttered: "Lao Tzu is very dizzy! These places want money and money, and they want food and grain, why do they surrender without fighting? ”
Zhu Jiajun couldn't answer such a profound question, so he just bowed his hand to Luo Yukun and Chen Chong, which was a farewell.
Luo Yukun bought a general's armor in Liaocheng, the iron light was shining, he hugged his fist at Zhu Jiajun, and said: "There are still some brothers Lao to defend Liaocheng, and when Lao Tzu kills Dong Xueli, he will come back." ”
"I wish Brother Luo a victory!" (To be continued......)
