Chapter 278 invited Lu Xiangsheng to form a group
Luo Heita, a character like Wei Yan, has a backbone in the back of his head, but in front of Li Chaosheng, he is a dragon to coil, a tiger to lie down, as long as he is under Li Chaosheng's nose, he is the most loyal old dog, and he will complete the tasks assigned by Li Chaosheng excellently, and he is more qualified than others.
Li Chaosheng likes such a character very much, whether it is a black cat or a white cat, it is a good cat to catch a mouse, no matter how unruly he is outside, as long as he can wag his tail in front of Li Chaosheng and do things, then Li Chaosheng will reuse him, of course, if Li Chaosheng is going to die, his life span is still longer than Li Chaosheng, then I'm sorry, I can only kill him.
It's like the Ming Dynasty general Lan Yu, of course, not only Lan Yu, but also many heroes who were killed by Zhu Yuanzhang in the later period, if Zhu Yuanzhang is not going to die, or even Zhu Biao is still alive, these ministers will not die, but Zhu Biao, the prince of Yiwen, is dead, and Zhu Yuanzhang is also going to die, so Zhu Yuanzhang can only kill a group of ministers trained by Zhu Biao, and Zhu Yunwen can't control these characters.
No way, this is actually the ability of the ruler, the ruler is capable, and some arrogant soldiers can use it, such as Luo Heita is the best knife in Li Chaosheng's hands.
If the ruler is not enough to suppress the arrogant soldiers, the previous ruler will have to find a way to get rid of them and pave the way for the kings of later generations, just like Zhuge Liang killed Wei Yan for Liu Chan, and Zhu Yuanzhang killed Lan Yu for Zhu Yunwen.
And after killing these capable ministers, another problem will emerge, that is, the court is weak and incompetent people are available, so there is no way, this situation can't be considered so much at all, you can only take one step at a time.
After all, not everyone will be like Zhu Yunwen, the step is too big to get to the egg, if Zhu Yunwen is not fooled by the smart Wolong and Phoenix Chicks, Qi Tai, Huang Zicheng, Fang Xiaoru, it is estimated that he will take his time, and he is also a king of success, Maybe the country will be able to cultivate a few capable generals later, At most, it will be the Ming Dynasty version of the Seven Kings Rebellion, and Zhu Di will not be able to make this rebellion.
Therefore, this monarch is very important, and he doesn't even sit in a stable position, so he wants to change the world, this is brain-dead, basically unstable, how to calm the world?
Li Chaosheng sat in his position, and at this time, Luo Heitakou Ruohanghe introduced his combat experience.
"Commander, the combat effectiveness of the Tartars is admitted, without the support of artillery and muskets, they still show strong combat effectiveness, in today's encirclement situation under the city, if it is placed in Gao Yingxiang, Li Zicheng's peasant rebel army, as soon as the cannon sounds, it is estimated that it will be unable to form an army."
"Even if it is replaced by the border army led by Hong Chengchou and them, at most they will hold on to a stick of incense, but the Tartars have held on for an hour, under the attack of our all-out muskets, the people around them have fallen one by one, and the Tartars are still not afraid of death, and still dare to charge our position, although I don't want to admit it, but the combat effectiveness of this group of bastards is definitely several times that of the Ming army, and this will to fight is not comparable to the Ming army."
Hearing this, Li Chaosheng nodded, he saw the situation today, the Tartars are indeed not afraid of death, and after being surrounded by their own people, they still shouted slogans and charged, which was simply a suicidal charge, and Li Chaosheng was very impressed by this.
At this time, Luo Heita said: "In addition, their cavalry does have two shots, and when our muskets are so dense, they can still bend their bows and arrows, and even make beautiful offensive postures on their horses, which our cavalry may not be able to do." ”
Luo Heita said this, paused and said: "It is precisely because of their stubborn resistance that we have heavy casualties, and it is still in the case of comprehensive superiority, if we wait for the Tartars to attack in an all-round way, wait for them to also pull the red-coated cannons of Liaodong over, and wait for their own musket team to send over, our advantage will not be so obvious, and when the time comes, it will definitely be a difficult battle." ”
Hearing this, Li Chaosheng nodded, and the rest of the people also fell into deep thought, Li Chaosheng said at this time: "The combat effectiveness of the Manchu Qing Tartars, we need to admit it, is very strong, stronger than most of our Ming army, so we will definitely face a very serious battle next, I hope each of you is ready." ”
"However, you don't have to worry too much, our army still has an advantage, whether it is weapons or the will to fight, we are higher than the Tartars, and annihilated the opponent's three thousand soldiers and horses, we died more than a hundred people, the ratio of thirty to one, it can be seen that our combat effectiveness is far from being comparable to the Ming army, so the next battle may be very difficult, but please work hard to protect the family and the country, and defend Lantian."
Hearing this, everyone saluted: "Yes." ”
Li Chaosheng nodded, followed by everyone and reported the seizure, for example, although the war horses were killed a lot on the battlefield, but some of the war horses that can still be used are not a few, listening to Li Chaohu's report, they have captured a total of more than 1,300 war horses that can be used this time, and those that cannot be used, such as some war horses with leg injuries, but more than 600 war horses are alive.
In this regard, Li Chaosheng gave instructions, and the living war horses were divided into two parts and handed over to Li Chaohu and Shi Dalei respectively, so that they could form a cavalry battalion directly under the division.
Especially Li Chaohu, who was born in the cavalry, has a mysterious love for the cavalry battalion, and later Li Chaosheng separated Wang Guixiang separately, Li Chaohu was very unhappy, but at present, Li Chaohu still hopes to reorganize the cavalry battalion, so that his division will be more mobile.
Shi Dalei was also very concerned about this, and looked for Li Chaosheng several times, so taking advantage of this opportunity, Li Chaosheng satisfied their desire to form a cavalry battalion directly under the division.
In addition, for the injured war horses, Li Chaosheng is ready to transfer to the baggage team, although these war horses are injured, their legs and feet are not good, and they are not as fast as before, but these horses themselves have the foundation of good horses, and it will definitely be no problem if they don't pull goods.
Lantian lacks good horses, this is the consensus, such horses can not be wasted, and there are many mares among these injured horses, mares are treasures, they can breed offspring if they are raised, and the horses born from war horses, train well, and there is a high probability that they can still be war horses, so these six hundred horses are also a lot of wealth.
The last is the dead war horse, this can't be wasted, pull it back, make it into horse jerky can be used as rations for the soldiers, or directly take it out and sell it, although the horse meat is not very delicious, but as long as you find a reliable cook to cook it carefully, feed it with special spices to marinate and taste, it will not be very difficult to eat, Li Chaosheng has eaten it is a little similar to beef jerky.
In addition, in addition to horses, there were also weapons, various waist knives, and more than 3,000 sets of bows and arrows, which were taken back, and Li Chaosheng was ready to directly arm the militia.
In addition, there is a baggage, three thousand people and ten days of rations, although it is not much, but it is enough for everyone to eat, in addition to a set of honor guards, a book and the banner of Prince Shuorui.
Li Chaosheng, the prince of Heshuorui, still knows, isn't it Dolgon?
Dolgon got the jade seal from Lin Dan Khan and handed it over to Huang Taiji, and then a group of people advised Huang Taiji to be the emperor, so Huang Taiji was called the emperor, and named Dolgon, who had the greatest credit, as Prince Heshuorui.
For these honor guards, Li Chaosheng was of little use, so he said that they would be burned, but Li Chaohu, who would live, said: "It's a pity, the cloth used for that banner is very good, and the water absorption is also good, so it is used to wipe your feet." ”
Hearing this, Li Chaosheng glanced at Li Chaohu and agreed, Li Chaohu used this flag to go back to wipe his feet, but Shi Dalei also wanted it, and several other brigade commanders were also greedy, Li Chaosheng waved his hand and let them distribute it privately.
The last is the Tartar corpse, Li Chaosheng ordered everyone to collect all the corpses, cremate them, don't stay in the grassland, the corpses are not treated for a long time, especially after polluting the water source, it will cause a plague in the water source, so it must not be kept.
When everything was dealt with, Li Chaosheng pinched his eyebrows and said: "Okay, leave the rest of the things to Wang Jiayao, the city lord of Naturalization City, to deal with, I haven't slept for a day, and I have a terrible headache, so I will sleep first, and you should rest early." ”
After Li Chaosheng said this, Li Chaohu and the others clasped their fists very sensibly and said, "Then the army commander, we have taken our leave." ”
Li Chaosheng waved his hand, and at this moment Wang Guixiang suddenly thought of something, patted his head and said, "Ah, look at my head, military commander, I still have important things to report to you." ”
Li Chaosheng heard this, looked at Wang Guixiang and said, "What's the matter?" ”
Wang Guixiang said: "Just now when we were fighting, we captured seven or eight of Lu Xiangsheng's scouts, and now they are still locked up in the barracks, I want to ask them what to do?" ”
Hearing this, Li Chaosheng frowned, Lu Xiangsheng's soldiers, Li Chaosheng rubbed his brows, and then Li Chaohu said: "What is there to ask, kill it, we can't let the Ming Emperor know now, otherwise that cautious guy may want to fix something." ”
Hearing this, Shi Dalei frowned and said: "I have heard Lu Xiangsheng as an official, he is a good person, he is a person who does things, and his people are killed like this, isn't it ......?"
Shi Dalei didn't say anything further, but the meaning is obvious, what is it for us Ming people to kill Ming people.
"Why don't you kill it, keep it closed? What if one runs away carelessly? ”
Li Chaohu said.
Shi Dalei also frowned, it's not easy to deal with, logically, killing Daming's own border guards, they can't do it, but if they don't kill it, it's not easy to deal with it, it's really a chicken rib.
At this time, everyone's eyes looked at Li Chaosheng, and Li Chaosheng put down his hand at this time and said: "Lu Xiangsheng, he is a character, now he is the governor of Xuanfu, right?" ”
Gu Zi said at this time: "Yes." ”
Li Chaosheng nodded and said: "Let the people go, by the way, let them bring a message to Lu Xiangsheng, just say that Lantian County ordered Li Chaosheng to invite him to hunt and attack the Tartars, and ask him if he is interested." ”
Hearing this, everyone was shocked and said, "Commander, this? ”
Li Chaosheng waved his hand and said: "It's not okay to hide it, there is such a big movement in Guihua City, as long as the court is not blind, it will be figured out sooner or later, especially we are surrounded by human spirits, Hong Chengchou, the governor of Shaanxi, Lu Xiangsheng, the governor of Xuanfu, plus Sun Chuanting, the governor of Shaanxi, none of these three guys are easy to match, and they will know what we are doing sooner or later." ”
"Since you have to know sooner or later, it's better to be honest, now I invite Lu Xiangsheng to hunt tartars, if he doesn't come, it means that he is timid, and at the same time, he will be suppressed by our momentum, as long as we don't hide it, they will be afraid of us, especially when the scouts tell Lu Xiangsheng and others about our strength, they will not dare to think about us."
"In this way, we will save our strength, so as not to have to fight with Lu Xiangsheng's generation."
Li Chaosheng said this, Li Chaohu said: "What if he agrees?" ”
"It's better to agree, not only do we have one more strong reinforcement, which can make the next war more calm, and increase the chances of victory, and after the victory of the war, we can also let Lu Xiangsheng help us take the blame, after all, plug and kill so many Tartars, this is a god's work, just give him to Lu Xiangsheng, let this Lu Gong be promoted, help this Ming carry a few more years, and give us a little time for development."
Hearing this, everyone nodded, killing the Tartars, you can get the Naturalization City, and the head of the Tartars themselves is of little use to themselves, they belong to the waste, now give this to Lu Xiangsheng, that is the credit of pouring the sky, such a big favor, he Lu Xiangsheng still has to owe himself a great favor?
In this way, the interests are maximized, thinking that everyone nodded in agreement with Li Chaosheng's opinion.
But at this time, Gu Zi said: "Commander, you said that this Lu Xiangsheng will not report our existence to the imperial court, right?" ”
Li Chaosheng heard this, glanced at Gu Zi and said with a smile: "If Lu Xiangsheng doesn't know our strength, he may not be able to report it, but after knowing our true strength, he will definitely not report it!" ”
"Why?"
Gu Zi asked puzzled, and Li Chaosheng asked with a smile: "Hong Chengchou, why didn't Sun Chuanting sue us?" ”
Hearing this, Gu Zi scratched his head and said, "I don't know? ”
Li Chaosheng looked at the others, and then Shi Dalei said: "The army commander told me that at present, our forces have been formed, the soldiers are strong and strong, and the Ming Dynasty is rotten and overwhelmed, Hong Chengchou and Sun Chuanting are all capable ministers of the country, and they can see the changes in the situation. ”
Li Chaosheng nodded when he heard this: "That's right, the emperor of our court is unpopular, and he always likes to make some stupid tricks, which makes the ministers tremble, some things have to be hidden from the emperor, and our emperor also abolished the Dongchang Jinyiwei, which is interesting, the minister does not report, the Jinyiwei and the Dongchang are gone, the emperor has become deaf and blind, and he can only know what the ministers want him to know, which is not sad." ”
Li Chaosheng sighed.
