Three days later, Qin Liang's 'jade', the privy envoy of the general of Zhenguo, began to issue orders for the transfer of the guards one after another. ,:..。

The First Corps of the Third Army of the Guards Army was transferred from Kaifeng to Yifeng, Henan, and the Second Corps was transferred from Xingyang, Henan to Qixian, Henan.

The First Corps of the Second Army of the Guards Army marched west to Nanyang, Henan, and then transferred to the Yanshi Division in Henan, in order to block the connection between the Qing Army's He Luohui Department and Hong Chengchou's main force.

The Second Corps of the Second Army of the Guards Army was transferred to the 'Yin' of the Henan River, preparing to cross the river and seize Yuanwu County, where the Sunjia Ferry was located, after Hong Chengchou's department entered the hinterland of Henan.

The First Corps and the Second Corps of the Fourth Army of the Guards Army listened to Huang Degong's own moderation, and deployed heavy troops on the front line of Xiangyang and Jingzhou to block the enemy layer by layer, and did not allow the Qing army to enter a single step.

The same was true of the 1st Guards Army.

Qin Liang's 'jade' was thoughtful, and in accordance with the strategic deployment of the Generalissimo's Mansion in advance and Hong Chengchou's strategic deployment provided by Zhou Ze, he had begun to secretly arrange the main forces of the two armies of the Guards around Kaifeng Mansion in Henan, and only waited for the time to slowly form an encirclement and plunge into his pocket and wait for Hong Chengchou's main force to drill inside.

This is naturally the opposite of the information passed on to Hong Chengchou by Liu Fan, who joined the army.

Although the strategic deployment is very simple, there will be many variables, and no one knows what will happen at that time.

Fortunately, Hong Chengchou is still useless about this, and what he got is false information, and he really thinks that the Second Army of the Ming Guards Army is really from Yangzhou to Beishan, and the Third Army is west to Huguang.

In fact, it was the Second Army of the Guards Army that went west, but it was not Huguang but Nanyang, Henan.

The Third Army of the Guards Army was also transferred out of the city one after another, but it never left the ground in Henan.

Moreover, Lu Zhenfei also wrote back to Hong Chengchou, making Hong Chengchou think that Lu Zhenfei could fight for it.

As everyone knows, Lu Zhenfei has been waiting for the instructions of the imperial court, and while actively preparing for war, he has tried every means to hide the whereabouts of the Third Army of the Guards.

The 2nd Corps of the 2nd Guards Army had begun to board ships and march westward, and the 1st Corps had also gathered in the capital.

In short, at the beginning of this war, the Ming army has begun to actively prepare, and even the Ming Army Military Academy at this time has also determined the list of students to participate in this war.

At this time, Xia Yunyi began to read the roster: "The following is the list of students who participated in this operation: Among the third batch of trainees are Xue Tingyu, Yuye, and Han Peng...... Sang Xiangkai, among the fourth batch of students, there are Xiaokun and Junkang...... Yang Linxuan, the other is the fifth batch of students Zhu Keqing! ”

"Report!" At this time, an officer student Zhang Shuda stood up.

"Speak!" Xia Yunyi replied.

"Why are many of our officers and students in the third and fourth phases not selected, but Zhu Keqing, a student of the fifth phase who has not been here for a month, can join this operation, he is just afraid that he has just learned how to shoot guns."

When this officer student Zhang Shuda said this, Xia Yunyi was not angry, but waved his hand and said:

"If you want to ask Ruan Butang, this is what Ruan Butang means!"

……

Zhu Cijiong, the Yongwang under the pseudonym Zhu Keqing, got his letter of appointment and was arranged to serve in the army under Li Mingrui, the governor of the First Army of the Guards.

This made Zhu Cijiong quite disappointed, and at this time a little guy came over:

"Master, Ruan Butang said, this time I will arrange you to go to the First Army of the Guards to do things with Li Zhitai, first, you can be safer in the rear without going to the front line to kill the enemy, and second, you can make a 'friend' with Li Zhengtai, now that there is no prince, and the lord is the emperor's concubine, you should 'befriend' a few weighty talents."

"This Li Mingrui, this king also knows, is known as the most far-sighted governor of the four armies of the Guards, and is also the first official to propose a move south, and also the first governor of Huaiyang, and was praised by his father for having the talent of the first assistant, and the future is limitless, Mr. Ruan is right, it is a good thing to have a good relationship with him, but now that the princes of one side may not look down on this king, and this king actually wants to go to the battlefield and kill a few Han 0 'traitors'."

Since Zhu Youzhen moved south, he has instilled the idea of the people and 0 ethnic groups in the princes such as Zhu Cijiong, the king of Yong, so Zhu Cijiong, who is quite bloody, is very different from his brother Zhu Cihong's "sexuality", and has always wanted to slash and kill the Tartar Han 0 'traitors'.

It just so happened that at this time, Zhu Youjiong also came to meet him, he knew about Zhu Cijiong going to Li Mingrui of the First Army of the Guards to receive training, and he had no objection, so when he saw Zhu Cijiong today, he only asked: "Why haven't you gotten up and gone to Shandong yet?" ”

"Back to my father's words, my son has just learned the news and is ready to leave tomorrow after bidding farewell to my father and mother," Zhu Cijiong replied.

Zhu Youzhen nodded: "If you go to Li Mingrui, you can't put the prince's money, remember, your current identity is just a member of the Governor's Palace, if you let me know that you intervened in the war, I will not spare it!" ”

"Erchen understands!"

Zhu Cijiong was also a little afraid of Zhu Youjiong, and Zhu Youjian was actually more like a teacher to a student for Zhu Cijiong and other princes.

Zhu Youzhen didn't know how many tears Empress Zhou left when she said goodbye to Zhu Cijiong, and how much did your father and emperor pretend to be serious and comforting with a cold face, and now he is only focused on the war and the inspection of the entire national defense system of the empire.

Zhu Youzhen went to the Ming Ordnance Institute once before leaving Beijing with the Second Corps of the Second Army of the Guards.

At this time, the Daming Ordnance Institute has developed into a complete national defense industry manufacturing system consisting of production, research and training.

The entire Moling Fang Mountain foot has been full of factories of the Ming Ordnance Institute.

The most eye-catching is the General Bureau of Iron and Steel Smelting, which is erected by dozens of blast furnaces, which is responsible for the production of the most 'fine' alloy steel in the entire Ming Dynasty, and the steel smelting sub-bureaus for the production and forging of crude iron and ordinary steel have been relocated to Jiangning Town.

It is close to the current Ma'anshan area and the Yangtze River, which is more convenient for direct mining and smelting of iron ore, and can be directly transported to Fangshan by water and land for 'refining'.

The sound of metal thumping in his ears from time to time, the scene of the steel jungle in front of him, and the feeling of boiling heat in the middle of it, coupled with the mountains of coal piled up in the distance and the sweating of workers who 'exposed' their strong arm muscles, all made Zhu Youzhen feel as if he had arrived at the beginning of the industrial age in the 19th century.

Song Yingxing and several other high-ranking officials wore scarlet official robes, which looked particularly dazzling in the black-based Iron and Steel Smelting Bureau.

Around them were workers who only showed their white teeth, as well as a few Dutch red ghosts who had come to serve here due to the fighting on Dongfanjima.

The entire General Administration of Iron and Steel Smelting not only has a general workshop for alloy steel forging, but also a training institution and research institution.

All kinds of metal materials that Daming can now match are placed here, and the students are all selected children from poor families who begin to learn iron-making technology with the master after learning the basic theoretical foundation, and the excellent ones can even conduct steel smelting research in their own studios in the research and development institutions.

After two or three years of development, there are already quite a few students, and through the five or six large canteens in the Iron and Steel Smelting Bureau within the scope of 2,000 acres, we can guess that the scale of the students here is not a small number.
