Chapter 169: Huang Taiji: What? Do you want me to help you instead of you helping me?!
The Ming army hunted with banners, and the flames of war spread throughout the south.
The battle line has been moving north, especially in Hunan, and the Ming army has even reached the city of Changsha, and finally the first more decent battle broke out with the Qing court.
The Qing court gathered 100,000 troops to defend the city.
But none of this has anything to do with Li Youwen.
After being captured, Li Youwen was escorted all the way from Hunan to Guangxi, Li Youwen has always been uneasy and frightened, for fear that the 'long hair' will be eaten alive, but what he didn't expect was that after arriving in Guangxi, he was incorporated into the legion.
That's right, incorporated into the long-haired legion!
This frightened Li Youwen.
Li Youwen is considered to be in the middle of the family, his second master used to be a showman when he was in the Kangxi Dynasty, so he grew up listening to a lot of stories.
He had heard that in the past, there was a method of fighting, which was to let the cannon fodder rush to the front and send it to death, and when it was almost consumed, the real elite would go to ...... This style of play comes from Eight Banners.
However, what Li Youwen didn't expect was that he was incorporated into the military column of the 'First Production and Construction Corps of the Ming Dynasty'.
He was given not weapons such as red tassel guns and knives, nor muskets such as arquebuses and flintlock pistols, but only hoes, nail rakes, and shovels.
This made Li Youwen a little surprised.
He was not so much a soldier as he was...... He is a farmer.
Of course, there is a certain difference with a farmer.
Every night at dinner, there will be civilian officials to tell them history, and at the same time, the Eight Banners of the Kangxi Dynasty will personally tell the actions of the Eight Banners, this scene undoubtedly does not make these soldiers of the construction corps angry.
In addition, in addition to turning the soil and sowing seeds every day, they also had to be trained by officers from the Ming Dynasty, and I heard that these officers were all martial arts students from the 'Guozijian, the first school of the Ming Dynasty'.
Li Youwen didn't know how to do it, but in this production and construction corps, the Ming army provided two meals every day, and he could listen to historical stories at night, which made Li Youwen very satisfied.
I heard that he can still receive a military salary of several hundred Wen every month, which makes Li Youwen even more excited, and vows to be loyal to Daming!
What? Hairy?
It's all stigmatized by those Qing demons, my Da Ming is Chinese orthodoxy, those Qing demons know a fart, and they are demons with that kind of disgusting braids!
Li Youwen was indignant, and even wanted to join the frontline team immediately to conquer the Qing Demon!
Li Youwen is not a person, he is a soldier of the Construction Corps.
He's just a microcosm.
The entire construction corps quickly cultivated fertile land in the Guilin and Liuzhou areas, and was also responsible for repairing the city walls, and in some cases, it was also responsible for maintaining law and order.
This is Zhu Houxi's first step for them.
During the Kangxi Dynasty, the Ming army attacked other planes for the first time, and did not understand the local situation very well, so they hastily organized the surrendered troops into new battalions and went to battle with the army, while the prisoners of war were locked in prisoner of war camps and waited for the end of the war.
To be honest, there are a lot of drawbacks.
On the one hand, the military discipline and quality of those troops who are far inferior to those of the Ming Dynasty can only have some combat effectiveness when they act together with the Ming army, and do not disrupt the local order.
And now, using these captives, Zhu Houxi can just experiment with the ideas in his heart, so he established two construction corps.
Each regiment had 50,000 men, which can be said to be a significant excess of the battle sequence, with battalion-sized units ranging from two thousand to fifteen thousand.
Among them, there were prisoners of war.
Of course, there are also local people who can't survive and take the initiative to join the army.
Of these 100,000 people, Zhu Houxi did not expect them to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy and make meritorious contributions, so he just washed their minds, exercised them, and was responsible for cultivating the land, transporting grain, repairing the city wall, and other trivial matters.
Of course, every ten days (ten days), there must be two days of simple military training, at least to be able to set up certain formations according to the orders of the officers.
It is impossible to compare the army with a similar name to posterity.
But for the current Zhu Houxi, it is barely enough.
The city that the Ming Dynasty defeated cannot be thrown away, and it needs to be garrisoned by an army.
Therefore, this is the role of the production and construction corps.
On the one hand, production and construction are carried out in the local area, and on the other hand, troops can be stationed there to deter the old and young who are ready to move.
At the same time, it can also carry out an 'internship' for the latest graduates of Guozijian, and the outstanding graduates will be assigned to the front-line combat units to become staff officers or grass-roots officers in the army, while the officers with average grades will still intern in the production and construction corps, and then go to the front line when they understand how to command.
The establishment of the Production and Construction Corps, in a word, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages.
However, at the same time, Zhu Houxi is also considering gathering the front-line battle sequence into the form of a corps.
Before, the army was divided into battalions, in fact, in order to facilitate control, the commander of each battalion was different, and the number of troops they controlled was not all, even if it was a special situation, it was someone who wanted to rebel, and someone who did not want to rebel, so it was natural to be able to contain it, so that the strength of the rebels was weakened.
If there was a need to go on an expedition, then a chief general was appointed from the imperial court to lead two or three central battalions, seven or eight local battalions, and local border troops to go out together, and this composition was the most in line with the emperor's thoughts: there was no army to rebel, and there would be no mutinies that often occurred during the Song Dynasty.
And the army will also be very easy to handle, just need to say 'today's school salary, no need to bring armor', you can bury an elite.
But for today's Zhu Houxi, this way to strengthen the stability of imperial power is ...... Not really, because he has become a symbol of the empire, and the generals have put their trust in him and are willing to give their lives for themselves.
And even if there is a rebel army, Zhu Houxi can win over the army with his personal level of immortal cultivation.
"Your Majesty!"
Suddenly, a thick voice appeared in Zhu Houxi's ears.
Zhu Houyu looked back and saw that Zhang Juzheng had arrived, and he surrendered to Zhu Houyi, not at all as arrogant as he was in the Wanli Dynasty before.
Seeing this, Zhu Houxi nodded indifferently, lifted the cup of tea, took a sip slightly, and said, "Sit down." ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
When Zhang Juzheng heard this, he immediately sat on the chair on Zhu Houxi's left hand side cautiously, very cautious, as if he had returned to that cautious era, and did not dare to make any trespassing.
Seeing that Zhang Juzheng was so careful, Zhu Houxi couldn't help but smile lightly, and then said: "Wanli Dynasty has arranged it?" ”
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Zhang Juzheng hurriedly stood up and reported: "Your Majesty, Weichen has entrusted His Majesty Wanli to Mrs. Yiwen...... The entrustment was given to His Majesty Chengping, and the army was handed over to Qi Jiguang for mobilization, obeying the unified command, marching to Fujian and Jiangxi, penetrating directly into Jiangnan, and containing the army in Jiangnan......"
Zhang Juzheng can be said to be the head of the way.
And Zhu Houxi is particularly satisfied with this.
After all, it was his request to ask Zhang Juzheng to come here.
Zhang Juzheng: Has he ever fought, will he fight? Let him be on the front line, and he can only be used as a military division, and the effect may not be as good as that of a staff officer of the military department.
It is better to let him come back, replace himself here, plan the construction corps, and unify the planning of the rear.
It is necessary to use Zhang Juzheng Xiao, not Zhang Liang.
The frontal battlefield is rampant, and Zhu Houxi doesn't want the rear battlefield to be full of fire.
And Zhang Juzheng has such a function of turning decay into magic.
As the so-called art industry has a specialization, although Zhu Houxi is the emperor, he does not feel that he is better than professionals in some professions.
Just as he was asked to command an army, he could never be compared with Qi Jiguang and Yu Dayou.
In addition to talent, Du Fu and Li Bai's talent is not something that can be covered by the emperor's identity.
What the emperor wants to do is to lead these talented people to build a better future.
Seeing Zhang Juzheng working so hard, Zhu Houxi couldn't help but smile lightly, and then said, "Zhang Qing, what do you think the rear should be?" ”
Zhang Juzheng already had a draft in his heart, and when he saw Zhu Houxi coming to ask, he immediately talked eloquently: "Your Majesty, the ministers are foolish, the idea of building the army is ingenious, and the new policy should be implemented in the newly occupied area, and the ...... should be with taxes and farming."
Listening to Zhang Juzheng's report, Zhu Houxi was very satisfied, and then without waiting for Zhang Juzheng to finish speaking, he raised his hand and said, "Since you are prepared in your heart, then this place will be handed over to you." ”
After hearing Zhu Houxi's words, Zhang Juzheng couldn't help but be stunned, and then said: "Your Majesty, are you going to command the troops and go to the front line?" ”
Zhu Houxi shook his head.
"I want to go back, there are still some things to deal with over there."
"Minister, send your majesty."
……
Three days are fleeting.
Beijing, Forbidden City, inside the Palace of Nourishing the Heart.
Qianlong, Huan Huan Lafayette, and Ruoqing sat together, and Qianlong was full of expectations.
The battle reports on the front line are one after another, most of them are 'our army and the Guiyang Great Broken Thief Army, beheaded 30,000, and the tactics were transferred to Changsha', 'The Fujian side triumphed, and the invading enemy army was dealt a head-on blow, and the Qing army was in Xiamen'......
Qianlong is not a fool either.
Naturally, he understood what was going on.
The battle situation on the front line is so good, why are so many cities gone, and the battle line is getting further and further back?
The incompetence of the front line made Qianlong angry.
Although he also knew that abandoning some cities was an inevitable choice, in any case, it was enough to annoy Qianlong.
Can't you, untouchables, use your lives to entangle those thieves, do your duty for the Qing Dynasty, and exchange them for those thieves?
Qianlong was very annoyed, so he was depressed these days, but he did not dismiss the generals on the front line.
Changing players in the field? I can only say that I am afraid that I will die unhappily.
Anyway, if there is no major mistake before, Qianlong will not change the commander before the battle.
"Your Majesty, don't worry."
Ruoqing saw Qianlong's expression, couldn't help but smile, and then took the initiative to step forward, wiped Qianlong's face, blinked his eyes and looked a little shy, and said to Qianlong: "With Emperor Taizong's soldiers and horses, we will definitely win~"
Hearing Ruoqing's words, Qianlong took a deep breath and said to Ruoqing: "What Qingqing said is that I am in turmoil. ”
After saying that, Qianlong grabbed Ruoqing's hand and said affectionately to Ruoqing: "How is it, is the time up?" I can communicate with Emperor Taizong, huh? ”
Seeing this, Ruoqing rolled her eyes, and then muttered: "The emperor kisses me, and I will tell the emperor." ”
Qianlong: ?
He couldn't bear the feeling of wanting to slap Ruoqing to the ground, and then gently pecked Ruoqing, Ruoqing was satisfied, and then Yingying smiled and said to Qianlong: "Your Majesty, the old rule, just say agree." ”
Qianlong immediately shouted 'agree'.
Soon, the familiar text box came again.
[You have agreed to the dialogue with 'Emperor Taiji of the Qing Dynasty' and are building a link.] 】
[The link construction is complete, due to insufficient energy, your call time can only last for half an hour, please note.] 】
And soon, Huang Taiji's face appeared in front of Qianlong again.
Qianlong's face was full of excitement, and Huang Taiji seemed to be even more excited than Qianlong.
"Emperor Taizong, when will you be able to send troops to support my ......?"
"Good descendants, good descendants, when will you be able to send troops to come to the aid of Ben Khan......"
Both sides spoke almost at the same time, but were silent at the same time.
Qianlong heard Huang Taiji's words, and the excited look on his face gradually disappeared: "What did you say?!" Do you need our help?! ”
"What? Do you want me to help you, not you to help me?! ”
And Huang Taiji had a ghostly expression: "Aren't you a great unification dynasty?!" How can Ben Khan help when he still needs Ben Khan's help? There are tens of thousands of cavalry in total, and after beating my Eight Banners, the clan will be wiped out! ”
Huang Taiji had just established himself as emperor, and the transition between 'me' and 'Ben Khan' was not very smooth.
But the surprise in his words could not be concealed.
Qianlong took a deep breath and kept his mood as calm as possible.
Soon, Qianlong said: "Hang up the call and use this time to talk to future generations!" ”
The ancestors couldn't count on it.
If you talk too much to Emperor Taizong, I'm afraid that I will have to divide my troops to save Emperor Taizong, so I still count on future generations to save myself.
This is what Qianlong thinks now.
What?
Without his own rescue, how about Huang Taiji?
What does this have to do with me? Emperor Taizong Jiren has his own natural appearance, and he should be able to tide over the difficulties smoothly.
As a famous selfish emperor in history, Qianlong paid no attention to anything.
For him, there are only two options: 'useful' and 'useless'.
With the interruption of communication, Huang Taiji's side was shocked, and he was speechless for a while.
"Great Khan...... Sweat...... No, it should be called the emperor now. ”
At this moment, there was a burst of happy words from outside the tent: "We have already gone to provoke the Ming army in Jinzhou, and the sons have been assembled, ready to fight a decisive battle with the Ming army at any time, and destroy Mao Wenlong's Dongjiang Town!" ”
"When are we going to do it?! Now that he has been called the emperor, he has torn his face with the Ming Dynasty, and he is afraid of him! ”
The children of the Eight Banners were beaming, but Huang Taiji's face was very ugly.
"Love Xinjueluo Hongli?! This is my children and grandchildren?! Shameful, shameful! ”
After Huang Taiji scolded angrily, he took a deep breath and tried to restore his composure: "Order all departments, stop fighting, take advantage of the news to reach the Ming Dynasty, cancel the emperor's title, and wait until Korea is pacified and Mongolia is subdued, and then the emperor's name will be issued!" ”
This time, he was tricked by this guy named Hongli!
Don't let him know who Hongli's ancestor is, Huang Taiji swore that he would set him on the wall so that he would not have a chance to be born!
Push another book of old color batches, Cao thief!
The title of the book is called Cao Thief, which is simple and clear.
One chapter is still owed.
