Chapter 94: Yuan Yingtai Recruits Mongolian Refugees

The large number of Mongolian refugees is clearly detrimental to logistics and security.

Zhou Dunji knew that when Xiong Tingbi was there, he repeatedly emphasized that Jiannu was not good at attacking cities.

Summing up the loss of Kaiyuan and Tieling, it was found that either the Ming army went out of the city to fight and was chased into the city by Jiannu, or it was set on fire and destroyed by the traitors, which led to chaos among the defenders.

Don't waste the war, prevent spies, defend the city first, and then counterattack, so that Jiannu has not achieved results for a year.

If refugees are considered to be recruited, they are also sent to places far from the front lines.

"It's because Yuan Jingluo and they have a plan to take the Mongols as an army, and it is unlikely that anyone will dissuade them to stop him......"

What did Zhou Dunji say to Wang Hongyu.

Now Wang Hongyu has corrected all the historical situations.

With the influx of a large number of refugees from Mongolia, Yuan Yingtai changed Xiong Tingbi's cautious strategy and directly recruited tens of thousands of Mongols as an army, which seemed to have expanded the military on a large scale.

Zhang Quan, Tong Zhonghua and others strongly persuaded Yuan Yingtai to be indifferent, and together with He Shixian, they were incorporated into the most important defenders of Shenyang and Liaoyang.

It hadn't happened at this time, but Zhou Dunji had already guessed that Yuan Yingtai would be like this, and he was very clear about the differences between Xiong Tingbi and Yuan Yingtai in this regard.

He took out a booklet from his bosom: "This is part of the note that Xiong Tingbi left for me before he left. It is written about the strategy against the Mongols, and it is mentioned everywhere that it cannot be relied on and can only be used for limited assistance.

The reason for this is that the strong army of our Ming Dynasty is fundamental, and the Mongolian reinforcements are at most supplemented. ”

As the eldest brother's eyes turned to him, Wang Hongyu continued: "That's right, uniting others is not the so-called unity, but with our strength and development direction, so that the united party cannot refuse." Otherwise, this unity is illusory. ”

"That's right, that's exactly what Xiong Jingluo meant."

Zhou Dunji looked at the notebook in his hand, then at Wang Hongyu, and smiled meaningfully.

"I've been reading the notes for the past few days, and I've learned almost enough, and I'll hand it over to you when the time is right. If you continue to train the phalanx and convince Yuan Jingluo, I will work together with Tong Zhonghua and Master Zhang Quan. ”

"It was okay to fight in the previous war, but it is not appropriate to persuade and stop refugees this time."

"Although it's difficult, I'm a general, and there are other civil and military forces together, so I have to convince him of anything."

Zhou Dunji knew that Yuan Yingtai and Xiong Tingbi had huge differences in this regard, and it was difficult for everyone to persuade and stop him, but their duty was to persuade him.

Wang Hongyu poured him a cup of hot tea, handed it to the eldest brother and said: "The eldest brother must not bear the pressure alone in this matter, and it is by no means only persuaded by the generals of our Southern Army and Zhang Quanxun."

"Oh? Or to persuade the Jiliao army, or to pull in more generals from the three sides? ”

"Definitely! The last time we did this, this time Yuan Jingluo must first arrange the benefits of expanding the army with the main generals, so he can't pull it in. ”

"Tsk~"

Zhou Dunji was very surprised, his third brother had already thought of this, but when he thought about who the third brother was, he didn't think it was so strange.

"What are the plans of the third brother?"

"There is no urgency in this matter for the time being, just make some preparations first. Dayu's water control has changed from blocking to channeling, this time there is Yuan Jingluo, and it is impossible to stop it in response to Mongolian refugees, but you can do things~"

Zhou Dunji's eyes lit up when he heard this, and his expression seemed to suddenly become very expectant, and he said to Wang Hongyu: "Don't be in a hurry for the time being?" That's good, then I'm going to give you the strictest and hardest special training~"

"Wait a minute? Shouldn't the focus be on what to do and how to do it next? Wang Hongyu was really surprised by his eldest brother's reaction.

"Since the third brother has the idea of preparing and doing things, the eldest brother doesn't have to worry. But the eldest brother also has to give the third brother special training as soon as possible, so that you can become stronger! ”

……

"This is a good thing, which shows that the Mongols hate Jiannu and have feelings for me Daming."

Yuan Yingtai was not worried at all when he heard that more than 100,000 Mongolian refugees were heading south.

He confidently said to the few generals in front of him: "This Jinglu is the best at logistics, more than 100,000 refugees can be distributed in Shenyang, Liaoyang, Guangning, Jinzhou and Ningyuan, and the integration of farming and warfare can also transport materials, so they can be arranged well."

More than 100,000 people can train 40,000 Yiding, Shenyang He's General Army Department has increased 15,000 troops, your command has increased by 15,000, and the remaining 10,000 are guarded in various places, so that the front line reaches 130,000 people, and Liaoyang and Shenyang have 90,000, and the advantage is in me~"

"Wise!" Several generals whose duty was to guard Shenyang replied happily.

One of them hesitated slightly, as if he wanted to say something but couldn't say it.

"Sun Guerrilla, you must not hide it in front of this scripture."

This guerrilla's name was Sun Qing, a local general in Liaodong, who had previously been stationed in Shenyang with He Shixian.

Sun Qing mustered up the courage to ask: "Zhang Quanxun and his predecessor Xiong Jingluo have strictly stated that we are not allowed to expand the army privately, and they specially go to Shenyang to increase the guest troops from the three sides and the Beijing camp, and they are not allowed to fill the local troops in Liaodong. Now the Mongol soldiers have committed even more of their taboos. ”

"Ridiculous!"

Yuan Yingtai shook his head angrily and refuted: "There is no doubt in employing people, and there is no need for suspicious people." Xiong Tingbi did not trust the Liao people, which was pushing the Liao people to Jiannu. As long as this scripture is omitted here, it will never turn away the Liao people and Mongolians, or even push it to Jiannu! ”

"But Zhang Xun pressed ......"

Yuan Yingtai interrupted:

"This scripture has written a chapter to the Ministry of War and the emperor a little earlier: Now that the grassland is plagued by Jiannu, and the refugees are displaced because of Jiannu, these volunteer soldiers and horses just cooperate with our army to kill Jiannu and take back home...... The court is full of people, there must be the support of the sages, and Zhang Xun does not need to worry about it. ”

"Wise!"

Yuan Yingtai looked at the three generals in front of him, they were Zu Dashou, Ke Rudong and Sun Qing, all three of them were natives of Liaodong, and their official positions were not high.

This regrouped a large number of Mongolian soldiers, which happened to be supplemented to He Shixian and their three-person army, so that the local armies of Liaodong and Mongolia would be able to rise, so that the Liao people and Mongolians could see that the imperial court attached great importance to them.

arranged for the three of them to return to Shenyang and inform He Shixian of the matter, and Yuan Yingtai began to prepare to accept hundreds of thousands of Mongolian refugees and train the elite of them into an army.

After Zhang Quan heard about it, of course, he tried his best to dissuade him.

There are also Jiang Bi, Tong Zhonghua and others in the army who dissuade them, believing that this move is not conducive to the stability of the army and will leak important military information.

Yuan Yingtai said at first that he would think about it, and when Zhao Nanxing, Yang Lian and others in the DPRK fully supported him, officially replied to his recital, and agreed to this plan, Yuan Yingtai immediately stiffened his waist, and no one could dissuade him.

Xue Guoyong, the new governor of Liaodong, also arrived in Liaodong, and he had just been transferred from the central government, and of course supported the policy of the imperial court. The three major civil officials in Liaodong were agreed by the strategy and the governor, and the inspector with the smallest official position could not be reluctant.

Yuan Yingtai did this directly.

A large number of Mongolian refugees entered the city, and the Ming army absorbed the elite among them, and the number soared by 40,000.

Everything seemed to be developing as expected by Yuan Yingtai and Nurhachi.
