Chapter 80: Qin Liangyu was left behind
The army arrived at Shanhaiguan and was unimpeded along the way.
Emperor Taichang had just ascended the throne and issued 2 million taels of silver, and after Emperor Tianqi ascended the throne, the imperial court also added hundreds of thousands of taels to Yuan Yingtai.
Including this southern army, the armies assembled in Liaodong temporarily received military salaries, but the discounts were more, and the actual receipts were relatively limited.
Fortunately, the four main generals Chen Ce, Tong Zhonghua, Qi Jin and Qin Liangyu are all the kind of generals who do not drink the blood of soldiers and treat their subordinates as preferentially as possible, so the southern army is basically in place at present, with high morale and dedicated to killing the enemy.
It was already October when they arrived at Shanhaiguan, and in addition to the 17,000 southern troops, more than 10,000 people from Gansu adjutant general Liang Zhongshan and Yulin adjutant general You Shilu had arrived a few days earlier.
In this way, the guest army added up to 30,000 people, plus the 30,000 soldiers and horses of Jizhen and Liaozhen who were originally stationed in Shanhaiguan, and the Shanhaiguan army gathered for a while.
When the generals of several armies and horses met, everything was as normal etiquette, but when the soldiers and horses met, there was a situation in which each department was in its own category.
"The Southern Army? Running to eat our food, steal our credit, and occupy our promotion......"
"You think you're good at fighting, don't you? How many pounds of flesh does that little body have? Can you wear heavy armor and wield a big knife? ”
"Oh yo ~ look at it, there are still female soldiers? I'm afraid it's not a ...... for pleasure in the barracks."
After several defeats in Jizhen and Liaozhen, most of the remaining veterans were slippery and treacherous soldiers, and many of the recruits recruited were ruffians, who were not good at fighting, and their ability to brag and squeeze friendly troops was unique in the world.
Forty percent of the soldiers are paired with sixty percent of the ruffians, even if they find Qi Jiguang, it is useless.
Because Qi Jiguang was also almost killed by Bing Youzi.
Jizhen Liaozhen is like this now, will the elites on the three sides be better?
Better is better, but it's a different kind of problem.
"Lao Tzu has been in Gansu for decades, he has suffered all kinds of hardships, and he has fought all enemies, and it is not a problem to build slaves."
"Jiannu? Is Jiannu strong? No matter how strong you are, you can be stronger than the Mongols? The Mongols I killed can't be counted on two hands~"
"The Jiannu cavalry is not as good as thieves, the archery is not as good as the Mongols, and the number of people is not very large, so can this be reversed? Look at my three-sided elite teach them to be people~"
Some veterans of Gansu, Ningxia, and Yansui have indeed experienced a hundred battles, but their experience and skills are relatively solid, and according to the experience of dealing with Mongolia, they will definitely suffer a great loss against Nurhachi.
Wang Hongyu, Zhou Dunji and Zhang Shenwu glanced at each other, knowing that it was best to find a way to remind these people, but there was still a lack of opportunities.
A few days later, Yuan Yingtai, the new Liaodong Economic Strategy, arrived at Shanhaiguan.
He showed a very close attitude to the generals, inspected the armies coming from afar, and gave them a reward to boost their morale.
At the same time brought several new appointments.
Chen Ce was promoted from deputy general soldier to general soldier of Liao, Tong Zhonghua was officially appointed deputy chief soldier, and Qi Jin was also promoted to deputy chief soldier.
Replenish the ordnance of the three generals Zhang Shenwu, Zhou Dunji, and Zhang Mingshi.
Jiliao generals have also been promoted.
Qin Liangyu also had a reward, and appointed her to take some of her men and horses to stay in Shanhaiguan as a backup for the Liao army.
Isn't that right?
The Shizhu white pole soldiers were extremely powerful, and there were 3,000 soldiers and horses at the beginning, and later expanded to 5,000 people. Now suddenly leaving the main general Qin Liangyu behind, and dividing 2,000 of the 5,000 people to stay in Shanhaiguan, of course, is a big loss for the northbound and southern army.
Of course, Wang Hongyu and Zhang Shenwu and Zhou Dunji had the same idea, hoping that the Shizhu Tusi Qin Liangyu could go north with the whole army. If you stay, it is still a little weaker for Youyang Tusi soldiers, and it is more appropriate to stay.
The three of them went to the commanders of the Southern Army, Chen Ce, Tong Zhonghua and Qi Jin, and they understood it with reason and emotion, which made them very recognized.
But when it came to Liaodong Jingluo, Yuan Yingtai's side couldn't make sense.
"There are a lot of soldiers in Shizhu Tusi, only the 2,000 people and 3,000 people are left, and there are only 3,000 people in Youyang, so it's not good to divide them again, and it's even more inappropriate not to let them kill the enemy and make meritorious contributions."
Yuan Yingtai meant that there were the most stone pillar soldiers in the southern army, and it was better to divide a group of people out.
"Jingluo, can we let all the soldiers and horses of Liao go north, Shanhaiguan is mainly composed of Jiliao soldiers, supplemented by some three-sided soldiers and horses, and stationed according to the original plan?"
Zhang Shenwu saw that several generals couldn't move, so he spoke directly.
"Hey, there are many new recruits in this Jiliao soldier, and if you don't go to the battlefield to kill the enemy, you will always be a weak soldier. Don't talk about this matter anymore, the order has been issued, how can the order be changed overnight! ”
Yuan Yingtai is usually kind and easy to get along with, but he is very arrogant in his bones.
Once you make up your mind about anything, the eight horses can't pull it back. Even Qin Liangyu personally asked to go to the front line to kill the enemy, but he flatly refused.
The generals of the Southern Army had no choice but to accept this appointment, and they could not be too nervous directly with the strategy.
Yuan Yingtai looked at the backs of them leaving, his face was a little unsightly, and he thought in his heart: "These southern troops are too capable of holding together, especially the Sichuan soldiers, who have low positions but have a lot of ideas. Now the stone pillar Tusi soldiers are divided, and the next time the Sichuan soldiers are divided......"
He is in the position of Liaodong Economic Strategy, has his strategic planning and layout ideas, although he has cooperated with Xiong Tingbi to engage in ordnance logistics, but the most expected is to scold Fang Xuan, command the army to launch an attack, and exterminate Jiannu's name will go down in history.
He said to the bookkeeper, who had been busy: "Arrange the logistics of Liaodong as soon as possible, prepare to accept Mongolian refugees as soldiers, and completely isolate Jiannu."
"Yes, sir."
……
Qin Liangyu was left behind, originally in the capital for a few months, he finally gathered 2,000 more soldiers, but now he was left behind.
She couldn't go herself, so she could only let her brother Qin Bangping and younger brother Qin Minping command the 3,000 people who entered Liaodong.
Cousin Qin Ling was originally left behind, but Qin Liangyu knew that if she was not allowed to go, she would sneak over herself, so it was better to arrange a task for her to go than to stop her.
"Sister Ling, Liaodong is vast and sparsely populated, and intelligence investigation is very difficult, so your mission this time is a little difficult."
"I understand~ my people have specially prepared tea, rattan and various specialties, which can be sold at a good price in Liaodong, as long as there is business, you can get a lot of information, and you can also pay attention to changes in prices at any time."
Qin Liangyu nagged Qin Ling a few more words, but Qin Ling said with a smile: "Sister, don't worry about me~ Your eyes are like your father's mother, you are getting old in this way~"
"It's like a teenager when he's so old. When I was a child, I was so afraid of the story of the Shennongjia savages, why are you so bold now? ”
Ignoring Qin Liangyu's complaints, Qin Ling smiled, she was still lively and smiling in front of her majestic cousin. Sometimes it is mysterious and quiet, sometimes it is refreshing and bright, and sometimes it is well-behaved and quiet.
"Alas~" Qin Liangyu raised his forehead slightly, this cousin can't marry like this, after all, this kind of character is too difficult to control.
Qin Ling, Qin Bangping, Qin Minping and others led 3,000 stone pillar white pole soldiers to continue to go north with the army.
