236 Zhu Di's lofty ambitions
The cavalry on Juehua Island, transported by the sailors, landed in Gaizhou first, and then launched to shield the *** rangers from the north to Haizhou.
Subsequently, the Cheying escorted the grain and grass on Juehua Island to land in Gaizhou, with a total of 30,000 horses and horses, and marched to Haizhou.
According to what Zhu Di discussed with Zhang Yifan before, after transporting this batch of imperial court officers and soldiers, the sailor sailed along the coastline through Lushun and headed to the other side of Jinzhou.
If Goryeo really can't do enough and wants to intervene in the war in Liaodong, then there are still 20,000 horses left here, and when the time comes, they can land directly in Jinzhou and go to the other side to get on the ship, saving the road around Lushun.
If Goryeo had not intervened in the war in Liaodong, then the 20,000 horses could continue to support Liaoyang. The sailors docked on the east side of Jinzhou could return to Dengzhou, Shandong via Lushun to deliver grain and grass materials for the next war.
In terms of division of labor, Zhu Di, the king of Yan, sat in Gaizhou, and Zhang Yifan did not go to the front line and accompanied Zhu Di in Gaizhou. The command of the front-line war was commanded by Yongchang Hou Lanyu under the premise that Tang He, the Duke of Xinguo, stayed in Jizhen, and Xu Da, the Duke of Wei, sat on the front line of Shanhaiguan.
Of course, there are actually marquis in the army who are older than Lan Yu, such as Zhao Yong, Marquis of Nanxiong, and Guan Liang, Marquis of Jiangyin. Especially Zhao Yong, the Marquis of Nanxiong, his credit is actually enough to seal the country. However, in the third year of Hongwu, he was punished by Zhu Yuanzhang for privately accepting slaves and maids, and he was not allowed to be crowned a public servant.
If in the original history, he would have gone to Guangdong at this time to quell the turmoil. But under the butterfly effect, Zhang Yifan ran to become the county magistrate of Xiangshan County, so that Zhu Di led the elite sailors of the Ming Dynasty to the south and wiped out all the pirates, and there was nothing to do with Zhao Yong.
Of course, the butterfly effect also has an advantage, that is, Zhao Yong would have died because of Hu Weiyong's involvement in the case. But in this plane, Hu Weiyong's decision is not a major crime of rebellion, so naturally he can't be implicated or not, but serves in Liaodong.
As for why the forward coach is not him, who made Lan Yu's niece the crown princess, and his daughter is the emperor's daughter-in-law! And the blue jade itself is quite capable of fighting, and has been strongly recommended by the big colt and Rong Guogong.
The movement of the Ming army is definitely a bit big and aggressive, and it seems that it is going to launch a major war in Liaodong.
As a result, one military newspaper after another, almost once a half-day, was sent to the front line quickly, that is, the *** here in Shenyang.
"Report, the Ming army suddenly dispatched a large number of cavalry, and all the Ming cavalry expelled the horses near Haizhou."
"Report, the front-line detectives risked their lives to report urgently, and there were Ming reinforcements escorting a large amount of grain and grass to Haizhou."
"Report, about 20,000 Ming State infantry troops, 10,000 Ming State cavalry troops marching towards Liaoyang."
"Report, the cavalry of the Liaoyang Ming Kingdom also dispatched on a large scale, and our army suffered heavy casualties in the horses."
「……」
At first, Ha Lazhang was relatively calm, feeling that with his understanding of the Ming army's combat methods, it was not like a large-scale attack, but just to strengthen the defense line in Liaodong.
If the Ming army were to attack on a large scale, it would not be only tens of thousands of men and horses, but hundreds of thousands.
However, as more and more news came from Tanma, Harazhang was a little skeptical of his judgment. Looking at this posture, the Ming army seems to really want to attack.
The Ming army in Liaoyang, plus the original, is almost 50,000, right? And his own subordinates are only about 50,000 in total. When it comes to the combat power of the army, he has no bottom.
The most important thing is that Haizhou's side was blocked by the Ming cavalry, and if there was no more news, I didn't know if the Ming army would have reinforcements in the future.
According to his own understanding of the Ming army's combat methods, there is a high probability that reinforcements will continue to appear.
So, he couldn't hold it anymore and immediately sent someone to ask for help from Naha in Jinshan.
When Nahachu received the news, he did not hesitate, and immediately sent his subordinate generals Gao Basi Timur and Hong Boyan Timur to lead their men, a total of 50,000 horses, to support the Shenyang side.
As a result, the Mengyuan army began to gather heavy troops in Shenyang, while the Ming side gathered heavy troops in Liaoyang, and the distance between the two sides was only one hundred and twenty miles. The infantry army can reach it in two days, and the cavalry army can reach it in one day.
The whole of Liaodong
Here, the eyes of all the forces were all attracted to the area of Shenyang and Liaoyang.
Liaoyang to Gaizhou, a total of about 240 miles of distance, if the horse is urgent, you can arrive in one day.
Zhu Di is sitting here, and the news from Liaoyang is delivered every day, and he knows it clearly.
"Report, the Marquis of Yongchang has led the main force to the important town of Liaoyang."
"Report, I didn't collect it at night and found that *** had gathered heavy troops in Liaoyang."
"Report, the Marquis of Yongchang sent out cavalry and feinted to attack Shenyang, and the *** army is like a great enemy. Our troops have not received the enemy and withdrawn."
"Report, the Marquis of Yongchang said that in half a month to see the situation, there should be no rain, which is conducive to the firearms of our army, and plans to send out the car battalion to fight a decisive battle with Shenyang."
「……」
Zhu Di is worried about these military situations, and some of them have to be sent back to Xu Da over there in the Guannai. As for Zhang Yifan, he just changed his fishing place.
When fishing on Juehua Island, he can watch the small fish under the clear water get hooked, but in this Gaizhou, there is no good place, and he only catches a few crabs all day long, which is boring.
Therefore, he changed to dictate the textbooks of mathematics, physics and chemistry, biology and science in later generations to prepare for becoming a Ming sage.
He had already received the news that an exam had been held in Nanjing, and the contents were the three booklets he had sent back before, namely mathematics, physics, and chemistry. Fifty boys and twenty girls were selected, accompanied by his daughter-in-law and son, and they had set off for the north.
According to the information he received, the math and physics exams were fine, at least above passing marks.
Then the chemistry exam was a mess, and those with the highest scores did not have a passing score, and the tall ones among the short ones were very reluctant.
Zhang Yifan also understands this situation. After all, as far as mathematics is concerned, it is all basic, and at this time there is arithmetic, which is not difficult for people in this era.
As for physics, it's all basic, and it's not too difficult to understand.
Only this chemistry is estimated to be called alchemy in this era, but in terms of the explanation of the principle, it is unrelated and cannot be shared, and there are few people who can understand it.
But it's okay, when I'm done with Liaodong, I'll teach them when I go back and take them to do experiments, there's nothing I can't understand.
Thinking of these, Zhang Yifan just didn't know the medical content of King Zhou's side, and he didn't know how it was organized? When you look back, maybe you can also ask, if there is anything you can point, you still need to give some pointers.
When he was busy with his own affairs, in early August of the fourteenth year of Hongwu, he saw Zhu Di excitedly running to the beach to find him.
Before he could get closer, he was laughing. Zhang Yifan looked at his cheap appearance, and felt as if someone had picked up a pie from the sky.
A vassal king, just this faceless and skinless one, there is no one!
Of course, Zhang Yifan also understands that this side of Zhu Di will only be revealed in front of him. On weekdays, even in front of Princess Yan, it will not be like this.
"Look, you've scared my fish away!" Zhang Yifan took the opportunity to mess up and threw the responsibility of not being able to catch fish to Zhu Di.
Zhu Di was obviously not fooled, and exposed Zhang Yifan's conspiracy on the spot: "Come less, when did you catch a fish?" If you're half-hearted here, you won't be able to catch a fish!"
He said with a smile, walked closer, looked at the things on the table in front of Zhang Yifan, and then said excitedly: "I have transferred to the big fish here, I just received the news that the Goryeo side is really here, it is that Li Chenggui led 50,000 horses to the side of the Yalu River, and then said that the Jurchens harassed them in the north of Goryeo, so they stopped there."
As soon as he heard this, Zhang Yifan suddenly became interested, and immediately asked, "Has this news been verified?"
"Of course it's true." Zhu Di casually took the stool that Zhu Wu gave him, sat next to Zhang Yifan, and said with a smile: "I have confirmed it again and again, and *** has no choice but to send someone to persuade peace, so that the Jurchen tribe and *** can put aside each other's prejudices and deal with our Ming army together!"
At this point, he slapped the table again and said, "This blue
Jade, when it is really a little capable, he sent troops in a virtual and real way, and made *** numb. Nearly 100,000 *** are all dragging on the front line in Shenyang and dare not move. Now, *** is counting on the Jurchen tribe and the Goryeo army to besiege Liaoyang together!"
After finishing speaking, he looked into Zhang Yifan's eyes and said seriously, "I am going to personally lead the troops, with 20,000 horses, to attack the capital of Goryeo. You're going to support me, aren't you?"
Zhang Yifan listened, thought for a while, looked at Zhu Di with an expectant look, and finally nodded and said, "There is a sailor who thinks that there is a way out, there should not be much danger, I support you." But tell me what you would do if you went to attack the capital of Goryeo?"
As soon as he heard his support, Zhu Di immediately became excited.
Seriously, this is a great credit, but if Xu Da is here, he will definitely not let him go, he feels too dangerous.
Back then, the Sui Dynasty eventually lost the country because of the conquest of Goguryeo, and even the strength of the Tang Dynasty was many times against Goguryeo. It can be seen that in the eyes of the world, it is not easy to conquer Goryeo.
However, now that he has a sailor in his hands, he can go by sea to attack the capital of Goryeo, and this is his chance.
What's the point of fighting this Liaodong war, even if you take the entire Liaodong, it won't be as good as taking the capital of a country!
Therefore, why didn't Zhu Di go to Liaoyang to sit in the town, he didn't even go to Haizhou Wei, he was just here in Gaizhou, not because he was afraid that he would not be able to go to the front line, but because he had been plotting the capital of Goryeo for a long time!
It was also for this reason that Zhu Di heard that Goryeo really sent a large army to give him an excuse to attack the capital of Goryeo, and Li Chenggui, who could fight in Goryeo, was also sent, that is, everything was ready, only the east wind was owed.
On Gaizhou's side, the only one who can stop him is his brother-in-law. But now, Zhang Yifan agreed, and he immediately blossomed, so he told Zhang Yifan in detail about his plans.
In closing, he emphasized, "...... But in the end, it is still necessary to adapt to local conditions and adapt to changes. There is only one principle, teach a hard lesson!"
Zhang Yifan smiled when he heard it, from a tactical point of view, Zhu Di made sense. This is understandable, after all, Zhu Di does have a talent for military affairs.
However, Zhang Yifan here, relatively speaking, he is more familiar with the situation on the Goryeo side.
Therefore, after Zhu Di finished speaking, he suggested: "This is the first time in history that we have taken action. That is, for the first time, the capital city of Goryeo was attacked by an enemy from the sea. This is the first time, and one top is going to be used well. When you pass along the way, it is best to avoid the Goryeo people on the shore and reach the capital of Goryeo to raid it."
Saying this, Zhang Yifan took a quill from the table, took out a blank piece of rice paper, and drew a map of Goryeo for Zhu Di, that is, the map of North Korea in later generations, including those islands, and he drew them all on the map.
When he was done, he pointed to the map and said, "There are actually a lot of islands to hide along the way. If necessary, you can hide on the other side of the island during the day. It is also possible to send one or two ships along the coastline to spearhead the sailors and shield the ships of Goryeo. I believe that even if the Goryeo side finds out, they won't care."
Zhu Di looked at Zhang Yifan's map with bright eyes, and nodded again and again when he heard it: "I know this, I know it in my heart. With you this diagram, it's much easier. I said, I have to bring you here, or I'll go find this map!"
On his side, the situation at the mouth of the Yalu River is actually known. But, further afield, he is not very clear.
But now Zhang Yifan has drawn him a map of the entire Goryeo, and he has been with Zhang Yifan for a long time, he has witnessed too many miracles, and he doesn't bother to ask how he came about it.
With this map, it's not a blind man's elephant! How significant it is, as Zhu Di, who likes to lead troops to fight, couldn't be clearer.
When Zhang Yifan heard his words, he just smiled and introduced him again: "You have landed in Jianghua Bay, which is only about forty miles away from the capital of Goryeo, and the infantry army can reach it in one day. It is better to block the door at the beginning, so that the king of the city and his dignitaries do not escape. The sailor's cannon blasted open the gates of the city, and if the king of Goryeo could be caught...... qδ
Seeing that Zhu Di was listening carefully, he continued to introduce the general situation of Goryeo, talk about their political system, as well as some common sense such as infighting, and how to make the most of the situation in Goryeo.
In the end, Zhang Yifan said solemnly: "No matter what happens in the end, you must ensure the safety of yourself and the soldiers, anyway, there will be opportunities in the future, understand?"
Zhu Di didn't pull Zhang Yifan this time, obviously, he also knew that going deep behind enemy lines was indeed a dangerous thing.
But he went by himself, but he was very excited, and did not take the danger into account at all. Hearing Zhang Yifan's words, he immediately said seriously: "Don't worry, I know in my heart that not only will I come to a big one, but I will also return the whole teacher."
Speaking of this, he became heroic again, and said in that firm tone: "What is it to annihilate tens of thousands of ***, let's give my father a bigger surprise!"
