Chapter 126: Rising and Descending

In the memorabilia sent by Hong Chengchou, the governor of Liaodong, he said that he led the army to attack more than ten times, killed more than 2,000 enemy troops in total, lost more than 1,000 people, and captured a number of trophies such as cattle and sheep, and made some summaries.

Zhu Jian knew that the morality of the Ming officials was basically to deceive the superiors and subordinates, and to report good news but not bad news, and the number of enemies killed reported by Inspector Hong had to be deducted by half, at most a thousand people, and his own casualties had to be doubled, so that he was closer to the real data.

The casualty ratio of one to three made Zhu Jian a little unhappy, the border army was equipped with well-made Lu Mi guns, grenades and flowering bombs, and was still beaten by the Jin army with a ratio of one to three, which shows that Hong Chengchou did not care much about the three-stage platoon firing battle formation that he repeatedly emphasized, which caused considerable casualties, and only then did he have that paragraph of summary, which showed that he was not old and confused, and the bloody lesson made him realize.

The last part of the twist is to tell that after he received the holy decree, he ordered Mao Wenlong to attack from Phi Dao and cooperate with the main force to attack the rear of the Jin army, but Mao Wenlong refused to fight on the grounds of lack of food and salary, and then, there was no more, as a smart person, these words were enough to give Mao Wenlong eye medicine, how to deal with it, that is the business of the Son of Heaven.

To tell the truth, Mao Wenlong stationed in the dangerous place of Phi Dao, like a sharp knife against the abdomen of the Jin army, from time to time to attack and harass, rob a little cattle and sheep or something, and disturb the rear of the Jin army, so that Huang Taiji really did not dare to attack boldly and boldly.

Mao Wenlong also made a lot of military exploits because of this, and was rewarded and promoted one after another, but because of this, he was arrogant and arrogant, and if he did not listen to the general's orders, any chief official would be unhappy, and finally Yuan Chonghuan's head was cut off and he was to blame.

Hong Chengchou is not happy with Mao Wenlong, Zhu Jian is also unhappy with Mao Wenlong, under his crazy golden finger and crazy plug-in, the food and military expenses of the Liaodong garrison, weapons and equipment are much better than the original history, the materials on Phi Island are scarce, and the living conditions are indeed difficult, but he also gritted his teeth and gave a lot of subsidies, but Mao Wenlong is too greedy and arrogant, and he disobeys orders at critical moments, which is clearly the rhythm of death.

A knife in the head, shouldn't it be this guy's fate?

Zhu Jian struggled for a long time, and finally decided to give Mao Wenlong another chance, and after reinforcing the three major fortresses of Hongshankou, Da'ankou, and Longjingguan, he transferred Mao Wenlong away from Phi Island and was garrisoned by Cao Bianjiao with the army.

In order to give strong support to Cao Bianjiao's headquarters and the garrison on the nine sides, the warships of the Liaodong Navy Division also had to be renovated, and a few new warships should be built, and new naval guns and shells should be replaced to enhance the firepower of the Navy Division. Brother, this emperor is so poor that he deserves to be hard.

Li Xin, Cao Bianjiao and others stationed far north did not wait for the reward of the Son of Heaven, but waited for the investigation team led by Gao Qiqian.

The exploits of the three new armies are all down-to-earth, and they are not afraid of investigation, and no matter how seriously the investigation team investigates, they will not be able to find out the slightest bit of greasyness, but it will cause dissatisfaction among the soldiers and soldiers.

In addition to transporting some materials, the most important thing is to escort some skilled workers to set up lime factories, cement factories, and brick factories in the northern Xinjiang area, and the lime and cement produced are given priority to the military, and the three major fortresses are rebuilt and reinforced, and some of them are sold to landlords, old rich merchants, gentry and other wealthy people to build houses and walls, so as to maintain the operating turnover of workers' wages and other costs.

The appearance of cement is fresh, however, after testing and demonstration, it is indeed a good building of Dongdong, not only convenient and trouble-free, saving construction costs, but also extremely stable, the most important thing is a symbol of status, of course, the big moat still likes to use a large piece of big bluestone slabs to build a house, and the small and medium-sized moat is built with fired mud bricks and tiles.

With the gradual promotion of cement, the market has slowly opened, more and more moats are used to build houses with cement, and the repair cost of some cities has also been greatly reduced, especially the cities in the border area have been re-strengthened, and some infrastructure projects such as water conservancy and roads have also begun to use cement.

Da'ankou general Zhou Zhen held the fortress meritorious, promoted to the general officer, Colonel Zhou Yuji at the critical moment led the crowd to defend Longjing Pass meritorious, promoted to general, took over the post of the former general Zhang Ande who had died in battle, Hongshankou sent another general to guard, the three fortresses are each other's horns, firmly guarding the Ming Dynasty's Peking University portal.

After the three major fortresses of Da'ankou, Longjingguan and Hongshankou were rebuilt and reinforced, Cao Bianjiao led the wolf battalion to Liaodong with a large number of guns, ammunition and military supplies, preparing to replace Mao Wenlong to garrison Phi Island.

During the banquet, Gao Qiqian, the angel who was responsible for rewarding the three armies, took out the holy decree and read it, and named Mao Wenlong as the deputy commander of the Beijing Guard, and returned to the division with Gao Qiqian from now on.

Mao Wenlong's original official to the governor of the left, the chief military officer of Pingliao, the chief military officer has no rank, only when there is a war, the general is appointed as the chief military officer, and the army of the guard station is on the march, and the deputy commander is a serious five-grade official, Mao Wenlong is properly promoted several levels, of course, the commander has a deputy word in front of the matter, which is equivalent to a soy sauce officer with no real power.

Zhu Jian used the technique of rising and descending secretly to cut Mao Wenlong's military power, which can be regarded as mercy on his subordinates, if this guy is no longer interesting, then it is really an executioner.

Mao Wenlong is brave and resourceful, but at this point, he also knows that the Son of Heaven is unhappy with himself, and he is lucky that he has not been taken off or clicked, and the soy sauce official is the soy sauce official, and he is also from the fifth grade, and it is better to eat and wait for death than to stay in the broken place where the birds don't on Phi Island.

After thinking about it, Mao Wenlong didn't make any trouble, disbanded his own personal guards, and only took a few loyal guards to follow Gao Qi to Beijing to take up his post.

In order to allow Cao Bianjiao to smoothly take over the military power of Phi Dao, Zhu Jian's transfer of Mao Wenlong to the Beijing Division is only the first step, and then, Hong Chengchou is responsible for the operation, or promoted or transferred, and all the middle and senior officers under Mao Wenlong are transferred from Phi Dao, and the entire Mao family army basically collapsed, Cao Bianjiao led 3,000 wolf soldiers into Phi Dao and smoothly took over the defense of Phi Dao.

Mao Wenlong's subordinates are basically ruffian soldiers, bad habits have been formed, and it is difficult to return, Cao Bianjiao used the name of rectifying military affairs to first dismiss the old oil soldiers back to their hometowns to work as farmers, and then eliminated a group with strict military training, and some young soldiers still have hope of reforming, but they must also go through systematic and strict training, and those who do not meet the standards will still be sent back to their hometowns.

Phi Island is short of materials, life is indeed hard, but under Mao Wenlong's many years of operation, it has also formed the scale of a small town, there are 20,000 or 30,000 people stationed all year round, and a large number of businessmen who travel back and forth between Daming and North Korea, the wolf soldiers only have 3,000 soldiers, 2,000 auxiliary soldiers, plus more than 1,000 soldiers left behind after strict screening, the number is much less than Mao Wenlong's tens of thousands of Mao family troops, and the collection of a certain tariff is barely enough for the garrison to cross Japan.

The strategic location of Phi Dao is quite important, like a sharp knife in the abdomen of the Jin army, and Zhu Jian certainly has to invest a lot of money to manage it well.
