Chapter 360: Promotion Turmoil

Zheng Zhilong's request to let the Fujian Navy Division Detachment participate in the final battle was deliberate, and it was not just as simple as participating, but to merge the participating squadrons into the Liaodong Naval Division to enhance the strength of the Liaodong Naval Division.

"Jufeng Building." Song Xiance pointed at Zheng Zhilong and laughed, people had already ceded a detachment of troops, but he was still not satisfied, and he had to fall into the well and slaughter again.

"Okay, as long as you are willing to appreciate your face." Zheng Zhilong also smiled, looking at Song Xiance with a grateful look in his eyes, after he was transferred to Beijing to serve as the commander-in-chief of the Imperial Navy, he has been cautious, and has a good relationship with the ministers of the DPRK and China, Xungui, etc., working hard and acting in a low-key manner, for fear of being targeted by the Imperial Security Bureau.

The emperor really didn't fool him, the position of commander-in-chief of the navy is a real power, controlling the entire navy fleet of the Ming Empire, and trusting him, some military secrets that should be known are known, and he can be regarded as the core high-level of the real empire.

However, the more this is the case, it makes him feel uneasy, and a group of confidants and staff discussed, and proposed to the Son of Heaven to reorganize the Zheng family fleet and merge it into the Fujian Naval Division, although it has undergone a major reorganization, many old warships of all sizes have been eliminated, and many elderly sailors have been honorably retired, but the strength of the Zheng family fleet is too huge, although the Fujian Naval Division is divided into the first and second fleets, but the fleet is still bloated and huge, and it is more than enough to divide it into four sub-fleets.

Zheng Zhilong also knows this truth, so he never interferes in the affairs of the Second Fleet of the Son of Heaven, and repeatedly reminds his old brothers that they are not allowed to manage or provoke the Second Fleet, and they also cede some warships to the Second Fleet to enhance the strength of the Second Fleet.

But he still has too much strength in his hands, and he happened to catch up with the Armageddon plan, he sent one of the detachments out under the pretext of strengthening the Liaodong Naval Division, Song Xiance is the chief of the imperial general staff, the number one henchman of the Son of Heaven, and sometimes it represents the holy will of the Son of Heaven.

Cao Bianjiao and Wei Yuanqing, who were far away on Phi Island, ushered in the holy decree of the Son of Heaven in anxiety, and when the angel finished reading the holy decree, the two of them were so excited that they screamed, jumping and jumping, like crazy.

The Son of Heaven agreed to the request of the two to expand the army, the wolf battalion was expanded to five divisions, the troop establishment was changed from a division to a group army, and Cao Bianjiao, the division commander, was also promoted to the commander of the group army.

Wei Yuanqing's Liaodong Naval Division Marine Corps was expanded to two divisions, and the Fourth Fleet of the Fujian Naval Division was merged into the Liaodong Naval Division, which greatly enhanced the strength of the Liaodong Naval Division, and Wei Yuanqing, as the commander of the Liaodong Fleet, was almost crazy with joy.

Cao Bianjiao was only in his early twenties, and he was promoted to the commander of the group army, in charge of five elite divisions, Wei Yuanqing was also twenty-five or sixteen years old, and was promoted to the commander of the Liaodong Naval Division.

The biggest feeling is Mao Wenlong, he is the first commander of Phi Island, these merits and glory should have been his, but because of arrogance, disobedience, greed and other reasons, he lost this great opportunity, and almost was chopped off his head, and now the ancestral tomb is smoking, and the reactivation of the Son of Heaven has to seize the opportunity, otherwise this is the only way in this life.

Although Zhu Jian gave Cao Bianjiao and Wei Yuanqing the right to expand the army, there were also some restrictions, and reminded him, I gave the two of you a promotion and expanded the army in advance under huge pressure, but the empire's finances are very tight, and the empire's current strategic policy is to stick to the nine sides, recuperate, everything is based on the people's livelihood, only part of the military budget can be given, and the missing part can only be solved by you in another way, and the taxes and business of Phi Island are all in your hands, and you can solve part of the military expenses, and then ask those tribesmenDon't be polite to them.

Cao Bianjiao and Wei Yuanqing did not have any complaints about this, they did know that there were many big men in the court who wrote to oppose it, and the military reacted the most, after all, no matter how great the two of them are, but they are too young and not qualified enough, it is difficult to convince the public, even their uncle Cao Wenzhao and mother-in-law Qin Liangyu persuaded them in the letter to refuse this promotion and expansion, the two were entangled for a long time, and they refused to be promoted on the surface, and secretly recruited recruits for training to prepare for the future war.

Zhu Jian understands the huge pressure on the two, and he himself is indeed under great pressure, in this case, he pushed the boat down the river and revoked the promotion of the two, and the matter of expanding the army was ambiguous, and he would discuss the matter later.

The final Armageddon plan for the Jin Empire must be implemented, requiring a large number of troops, and the riot army is certain, but it will not be issued until the war in the Horqin grassland is over, and the official order for the expansion of the army will be issued after the spring ploughing of the next year, so Cao Bianjiao and Wei Yuanqing will expand the army in advance, and most of the military expenses in the early stage will have to be solved by themselves.

The promotion did set off a wave of turmoil in the court, but fortunately, in the end, the Son of Heaven revoked the promotion, and the turmoil gradually subsided, but everyone knows in their hearts that it is a matter of time before Cao Bianjiao and Wei Yuanqing are promoted, and if they want to be promoted, in addition to holding the thick dragon legs of the Son of Heaven, they must also have the ability to win military merits.

The battle under the city of Chagantehao is still raging, and it can even be described as tragic, Lu Hongniang personally led the first regiment out of the camp, killing the Jin army to fill the river, in order to block and encircle the first regiment, Huang Taiji invested a large number of troops to block, Dou Dayong led the third regiment out of the camp to reinforce, but also suffered from the desperate resistance of the Jin army, the two sides were also inseparable, the corpses were all over the field, the blood flowed like a river, the rumbling guns and roars resounded in the sky, and it lasted until the evening before gradually stopping.

Lu Hongniang led a regiment to defeat the Jin soldiers who built embankments and barrages before dark, re-dug the river, and then camped on the spot and put on strict guard to prevent the Jin army from attacking and stealing the camp at night.

The third regiment led by Dou Dayong was unable to break through to meet the first regiment after a hard battle, facing the heavy encirclement of the Jin army, and suffered more than 200 casualties, so it had to retreat to the camp to hold on.

"Old Dou, are you dead? The brethren died with envy. ”

Du Yunfeng led the army to meet in front of the camp, as soon as Dou Dayong entered the camp, he went up and punched him, complaining all kinds of complaints, the Jin army desperately prevented the third regiment from breaking through to meet the first regiment, and this was exactly what Lu Hongniang wanted, forcing the Jin army to fill with human lives, desperately blocking it, which was in line with the strategic intention of the Son of Heaven and the Jin Empire to fight a war of attrition.

Dou Dayong grinned and smiled happily, this battle was indeed very cool, killing and wounding thousands of gold soldiers at the cost of more than 200 casualties, and pulling back carts of horse corpses by the way, everyone has been eating horse meat for a while, drinking horse bone soup until they are tired of drinking, I really have to thank these tribesmen, they are sending people and horses, and they are very generous.

Chagantehao City, Imperial Palace.

The exhausted soldiers have already fallen asleep, recuperating for tomorrow's battle, but the palace is brightly lit, Huang Taiji and a group of Baylor, patriarchs, henchmen and generals are drinking wine and eating meat while holding a meeting, today's battle, although Lu Hongniang led the first regiment to defeat the defenders who built the embankment, and re-dug the river, but they can continue to fill the river farther away, as long as Lu Hongniang dares to dig, they dare to fill, everyone plays a game of hide and seek, see who can't hold it first?

Dou Dayong's third regiment was also successfully blocked, the retreat of the first regiment has been cut off to death, and it can be encircled and annihilated at any time, and the battle is completed very well as expected, but when the casualty report is counted, Huang Taiji's old face is suddenly as black as the bottom of a pot, and in a big daylight battle, there have been nearly 10,000 casualties, this loss is too scary, right? According to this loss rate, in ten days, the foundation of the Dajin Empire will have to be exhausted.

"Nearly 10,000 losses?"

All the Baylors, patriarchs, and confidant generals were also startled, and couldn't help but hiss and inhaled the cold air, especially if the statistician counted the data wrong? Even if you kill 10,000 pigs, you have to kill them for a long time.

"Master Fan, what do you think?"

Huang Taiji's face was gloomy and frightening, and the uneasy feeling in his heart lingered, but he couldn't accurately capture it, and he also had this feeling as well as the military Fan Wencheng, he hoped that Fan Wencheng could provide him with some reference suggestions.
