Chapter 1047: Reorganization of the Liaodong Army
Zu Dashou was hugged by the emperor with tears in his eyes, excited and guilty, he didn't know what to say, and he only knew how to cry.
Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen waved his hand and motioned for Yang Sichang to come over to help appease, the emperor is not the time to have a long relationship with his children.
Yang Sichang hurriedly came over and took Zu Dashou, who was no longer standing.
Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen smiled slightly, "Zu Dashou is cultivating by my side, I also have to use veterans, Zu Dashou directly entered the General Staff Office, served as the deputy general staff, and received the rank of general staff, Yang Sichang, the reorganization of the Liaodong soldiers is responsible for you, and those who want to continue to serve as soldiers will retain the Royal Forest Army, but they must go through a political review, a strict political trial, let the soldiers report each other, and don't let the spies get involved, as for the generals of the Liaodong Army, they will all be promoted to one level, and they will be arranged to study in Tianjin Party School first, and in the future, I will entrust them with important tasks." ”
"Yes!" What kind of smart person is Yang Sichang? In the past few years with the emperor, the emperor's political methods, not to mention the people around him, even the ordinary officials have figured out a rough idea, disrupting the army into pieces and disrupting the reserve army in the Gyeonggi area, and then transferring the officers to the party school, these two steps, the Liaodong Army will no longer exist, and the fate of these officers is completely in the hands of the emperor, Yang Sichang of course knows what to do?
Zu Dashou couldn't help but cry and thank you, the emperor's resignation, not only stabilized Zu Dashou's heart, but also stabilized the tens of thousands of Liaodong Army soldiers who survived, Zu Dashou was not panicked, an old man who was almost sixty years old, there was not much to be afraid of, Zu Dashou could feel the emperor's sincerity. So don't worry. And Wu Xiang and Wu Sangui are two people. Especially the group of generals led by Wu Sangui who once wanted to rebel against the meaning of the Ming Dynasty beat the drum in their hearts, but at this time, all the military power was seized, and they were already fish and meat on the chopping board, so they could only pray in their hearts that Emperor Chongzhen Zhu Youzhen could be gracious, regardless of the previous suspicions.
After solving the problem of the Liaodong Army, the 300,000 soldiers on the Liaodong battlefield are all the Ming Imperial Forest Army. Although the army directly under the emperor has less than 50,000 experienced combat troops, and only more than 20,000 troops equipped with Chongzhen-style rifles, the loyalty to carry out the emperor's orders has been raised to a higher level.
Worship this kind of thing, it is not formed in a day or two, these reserve youth army in the Gyeonggi area of the Ming Dynasty. It's really a ten-year sharpening of a sword, and the biggest difference between them and the old Liaodong Army is. Newborn calves are not afraid of tigers, they are all stunned, they have not suffered losses, they are very cute, and they don't know how to write the word fear.
"The army set up a formation, made a posture of storming Liaoyang City again, and immediately shelled it for an hour, every two hours. Hit the south gate and flow out of the gap of the north gate. Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen smiled slightly, glanced at the fireworks in Liaoyang City, the entire town was shrouded in black smoke, once upon a time, this was the most familiar environment of the Ming army, and now it is down.
Hong Chengchou performed a standard military salute and promised to arrange the arrangement in a hurry, Hong Chengchou really admired Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen too much, even if the military talent was as high as Hong Chengchou, he could not match the political talent of Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen, and the military, politics and economy, these three were originally bypassed, Hong Chengchou is now clearly aware that the emperor is going to exert psychological pressure through Guò, forcing Dolgon and Haoge in Liaoyang City to take the initiative to withdraw with the army and civilians.
In the face of such tremendous pressure, although Dolgon was not to the point of collapse, he still sent a liaison officer to the direction of Shengjing in a last resort in panic, and reported the current situation of Liaoyang City to Huang Taiji to know that Dolgon really did not dare to make any decision, and any decision now was related to the victory or defeat of the entire battle.
Huang Taiji trembled his hands and looked at the information sent by Dolgon, "You say, what now?" Could it be that he just watched Liaoyang's army continue to fill the big hole in the south gate? How vicious is Chongzhen's move? He didn't engage in street battles with my Liaoyang City army, like demolishing houses, destroying city walls and destroying houses little by little, what do you say? What to take against Chongzhen's tanks? Even if we want to fight hard now, we don't have a chance, so that the soldiers and civilians in Liaoyang City can withdraw immediately, and maintaining strength is the key! ”
Fan Wencheng frowned, he had a heavy iron mask on his face, no one could see his expression, Fan Wencheng shook his head gently, "I can't withdraw it, Liaoyang City has been bombarded for days, where are there still war horses?" Even if there were less than 10,000 war horses that entered the city at the beginning, where could there be nearly 400,000 soldiers and civilians, on foot on the plain, it would become a live target for the Ming rifle, not to mention that the number of iron cavalry in the Ming army is close to 50,000. According to the intelligence, the two armies of He Kegang and Lu Xiangsheng are all cavalry archers, all equipped with muskets, even if they pull out more than 100,000 iron cavalry in my Shengjing to respond, it is not enough to fight hard with these two armies, not to mention that the total strength of the Ming army is much higher than ours. ”
Huang Taiji angrily threw the information on the ground, holding his head and yelling in pain, "Get out, get out!" ”
The people sent by Dolgon to contact him, as well as several banner lords, were all scared half to death, and Huang Taiji, who looked like crazy, didn't know how to persuade him, if Huang Taiji became ill at this time, then Daqing was in danger.
Da Yu'er, a think-tank figure in Huang Taiji, is gone, and he has been depressed.
Fan Wencheng waved his hand at everyone and signaled that they would all go out, while he himself stayed in the big tent of Huang Taiji, this Han traitor, at this time, he really became the only think-tank figure in Huang Taiji, especially when the six gods of Huang Taiji had no owner and had no choice.
Huang Taiji cried, cried for a long time, covered his face, didn't dare to cry too loudly, he was tired of crying, only to realize that Fan Wencheng hadn't gone out yet, and said in a deep voice, "Do you think I'm pitiful?" ”
Fan Wencheng shook his head, "Your Majesty, when you are constantly interrupted, it is really a taboo for soldiers, right now, Chongzhen is obviously using psychological warfare, to break the willpower of the defenders of Liaoyang, I didn't expect Chongzhen to grow so much, if it was Chongzhen before, he would never do this, I heard that the general staff of the Ming army is Hong Chengchou, this person has always had unpredictable military command ability, with this person's right to take charge of army deployment, Liaoyang's chances of victory are almost gone, the emperor might as well abandon Liaoyang City, write a letter to encourage Dolgon, let them resist desperately, The ammunition of the Ming army is limited, as long as it holds on, in the end, it is indispensable to meet each other in a short manner, and if these 400,000 soldiers and civilians can move forward together, they will not suffer. ”
