Chapter 49: The Possibility of an Autumn Offensive
Chapter 49: The Feasibility of the Autumn Offensive
He Xi said with a wry smile; "It's easy to say, where are the soldiers now, this year's Liaodong guards have been running around, and even Liaodong's grain production has been reduced this year. Now I only hope that this crop of grain will be harvested, and as for the rest, I don't want to think about anything else. Anyway, the guards of Liaodong can't move. ”
Lan Yu smiled slightly and said, "I can transfer one or two guards here." Liaodong doesn't need to send soldiers, there are still 8,000 people, don't tell me that there are no Shenyang Sanwei in Ye Wang's hands, what kind of quality it is, I still know. ”
He Xi also knows.
The Shenyang Sanwei is the army stationed in Shenyang, and it is the closest army under Ye Wang. It is Ye Wang's descendant.
This may be a general who has experienced wind and rain, and has the habit of putting a capable army within his reach. An army capable of fighting. This is probably during the war, and the general usually puts a reserve team around him. is the most elite army.
This is true even during the season.
Plus the special situation of Liaodong.
You have to face the Tartars at any time. Ye Wang also had to send troops to respond immediately.
And when you send troops, you have to use the army around you. That is, Shenyang Sanwei. Shenyang Sanwei is the main force in Liaodong. I can't fight a vicious battle. Not to mention, this year it was just garrisoning and transferring, and there was no vicious fighting. Even if there is, this army cannot be said to be unable to be dispatched at this time.
However, this is also because of the limited resources of Daming Investment in Liaodong before. In addition, Liaodong itself is poor. Such an army can only afford to raise Shenyang Sanwei.
The other guards are forcibly transferred, and there is no way to guarantee the combat effectiveness.
He Xi said: "After all, Goryeo is a country of ten thousand times, with a population of millions, and I am already worried about Ye Shen's plan. It is not appropriate for a group of 20,000 people to attack the country of 10,000 times, don't steal chickens and rice, it is better to wait until next spring, prepare properly, and then do it not be too late. ”
Lan Yu smiled slightly and said, "There is still an army to call?" There are quite a few people, and we will do it and put them in Liaodong, you can rest assured, I am not at ease. Moreover, this army, at the moment, uses them. They must have stepped forward bravely, and they wanted to behave. ”
He Xi said secretly in his heart; "Where is this army in Liaodong?" However, then my heart moved, what came to mind? Leaning forward, he said, "You're talking about -----"
Lan Yu said: "That's right, the five elites of Naha are the songs that have been passed down from generation to generation by the Mu Huali family. It's time to use them now. ”
He Xi got up abruptly and said, "Not bad." ”
Lan Yu is right, Naha's core subordinates are indeed difficult to settle. Historically, the Naha Exit Department was placed in Yunnan and became a part of the Ming Army in Yunnan.
He Xi was also worried about this matter.
Now that I think about it, it's a good idea.
Although more than 20,000 people. It has now been disarmed, but there is no shortage of ordnance in Liaodong, and even because of the capture of the previous war, there are still war horses left. Immediately re-armed. And Nahachu father and son already have a mansion in Nanjing, Nahachu is the Marquis of Haixi, Chahan is the son of the Marquis of Haixi, and has become an attendant of the East Palace. That is, to become the team of the prince.
It can be said that Nahachu has already integrated into Daming, or he has tried hard to integrate into Daming. At this time, he definitely didn't want his old department to make a mess.
And on the third son of Naha, his brother is the prince of Haixi Hou, and what does he say about his future future. It's hard to say. In Daming is a new environment after all. If in the Yuan Dynasty, just by relying on the heels of their Muhuali family, they don't have to do anything, and they will become high-ranking officials in the future.
After all, the Yuan Dynasty employs people with the most important person's origin, heel. No matter what, it is difficult for the Han people to reach a high position, and the Mongols can rise to prominence as long as they are well-born.
Therefore, Harbour is not spending money and is worried about his future prospects.
He Xi felt that Naha was out of the core song, and it was not easy to do. And Naha came out of the old ministry of these people. In a place of suspicion, isn't there also worry, not to mention, Naha is out of the family. They don't worry about it, some people below can't figure it out, and if something happens and it involves them, wouldn't it be a disaster.
And it was the right time to fight Goryeo.
These people used to fight the Mongols, and it is likely that there are some knots, but when they fight Goryeo, there is no problem at all. After all, for Da Ming, Goryeo repeatedly, for Da Yuan, why didn't Goryeo repeat? Goryeo swayed up and down, and there was no good place in Daming and Dayuan.
Naha's exit department, whether it is out of the mentality of the Mongols or the mentality of the Ming people, there is no problem in fighting Goryeo.
There is even a psychological advantage, thinking that they beat Goryeo, just like Lao Tzu beating his son, Dayuan is not without fighting.
And for the sake of the Ming Dynasty, they were also relieved, and the imperial court also transferred them away from the front line. The imperial court was also at ease.
Count it all in one fell swoop. He Xi was really moved.
Before winter, it seems that it can really give Goryeo a hard blow.
He Xi pondered for a while and said, "Two questions. The first question, if you don't spend it, will you agree? The second question is, can there really be progress in attacking Goryeo at this moment? ”
Lan Yu said: "The first question is that you need to convince Harbour not to spend it, but I don't think it's difficult." When Lan Yu said this, he paused slightly, looking at He Xi's reaction, He Xi did not refute. After all, He Xi also felt that this matter was not very difficult. Sapphire continued; "As for the second thing, it's easier, autumn is a good time to move troops, at this moment, as long as the speed is fast, many steps can be omitted, you can feed the enemy, there will be no problem with Ye Shen opening the way in front. Today's war also opens the way for next year's war. Weaken Goryeo. After all, Goryeo is also a country of ten thousand times, and Nanjing is also going to destroy the country. It's normal to play for two or three years. ”
"Ye Shen is in Goryeo, although the situation is unclear, but there is no bad news yet, it can be seen how unbearable the military strength of Goryeo is, in this case, are you still worried about any problems? Furthermore, even if there is any problem, isn't there a thorn that is not spent in front? ”
He Xi can only say that Lan Yu is very ruthless many times. As long as it is suitable, he will not hesitate to use the surrender army as cannon fodder.
However, He Xi's suggestion to Lan Yu was really moved.
Without further ado. He Xi immediately sent someone to invite Ha Thorn Buhua.
He Xi originally wanted to take a detour, but Lan Yu didn't have this hobby. went straight into the knife with a single knife, explained the situation in front of him clearly, and finally said: "Ha stab does not flower, you don't have an official position in Daming, right?" If it is done well this time, there is no guarantee of anything else. Give you a commander immediately, there is no problem at all, and what happens in the future is up to you. ”
"Think about it."
Ha Thorn didn't spend, almost didn't hesitate, and said: "It is a blessing for his subordinates to be valued by the Marquis of Yongchang, and his subordinates are willing to die for the Ming Dynasty and the Marquis of Yongchang." ”
He Xi and Lan Yu glanced at each other, and knew that this matter was half done.
Ha Thorn is thinking about how to gain a foothold in the Ming Dynasty at the moment, and is naturally willing to have a chance to show himself, although the Yuan Dynasty is now in decline, but in the eyes of the people of the Yuan Dynasty, fighting a war, except for the Ming Dynasty, no one is worthy. Goryeo was even more defeated, a lackey back then. This is almost a credit grab.
He Xi said: "In this case, without further ado, you immediately go back to select people, all the arsenals here in Shenyang are open to you, on the first day of September, your department must go to the west bank of the Yalu River, and all the arrangements are coordinated by Ye Wang and Huang Zicheng." Go for it. ”
Harthorn went happily.
Lan Yu said: "The heart of defense is indispensable, I will leave some people to be the overseers of the Ha Thorn Buhua subordinates." The affairs of Liaodong will be left to you. Lan Chixin and the others, who have already arrived in Dingliaowei, will obey your orders, this time, there is no need to do anything, just hold the opposite Yizhou City, and go south to deter a little bit, and wait for next year after the ice and snow melt, you will lead the troops eastward, I will still go straight to Jianghua Island, and the battle will be decided. ”
When He Xi heard this, he immediately felt that he couldn't underestimate Lan Yu, Lan Yu had to send troops to He Xi this year, it was a false move, it was to attract the attention of Goryeo, and let Goryeo put the army on the land defense line in the north, so that he could dig out Huanglong from the sea.
However, He Xi doesn't care about these credits. Just get this done quickly. Immediately said: "That's good." I'm just waiting for next year. ”
