Chapter 10 Niu Wancheng Trail
"Prince Kang's book?"
Wang Wu was a little surprised, and he had the impression that this masterpiece was from the Daishan family of Prince Li, and Prince Kang was also the title changed by Prince Li.
Among the several hat kings of the Qing Dynasty, the Daishan family accounted for two.
As for Jieshu himself, Wang Wu's biggest impression of him is that during the "Rebellion of the Three Feudatories", Jieshu was ordered by Kangxi to lead the army in Zhejiang to resist Geng Jingzhong's Northern Expedition.
As a result, because he was afraid of the war, he hid in Jinhua for two years, and he was so angry that Kangxi even issued an edict to force him to march before he moved, and later succeeded in pacifying Geng Jingzhong.
However, Geng Jingzhong's defeat was not because of the low combat effectiveness of his troops, nor because the Qing army could fight, but because when Geng tried his best to invade Jiangsu and Zhejiang, Taiwan's Zheng family not only refused to cooperate with the ships going to sea to enter the Yangtze River, but instead sent the main force to cross the sea to stab Geng Jingzhong's knife.
As a result, Geng Jun's morale was shaken because of the instability in the rear, and he was successfully picked up by Jieshu.
Therefore, later historians pointed out that the Zheng family had three mistakes.
A mistake is Li Dingguo; Second, Zhang Huangyan was mistaken; Three mistakes in China.
If Zheng Jing had taken a slightly longer term view and sent the main force to learn from his father in the Yangtze River with sea ships and troops to Nanjing, instead of frantically attacking Geng Jingzhong, whose main force had already invaded Zhejiang, history would have gone in another direction.
"Prince Kang should only be in name, and there should be someone else in actual command."
It was Zhang Changgeng who was counting the list of Manchurian prisoners.
Wang Wu nodded, Jie Shu is afraid that he is not twenty years old, and he has no experience in battle formations in the past, so it can be said that he is a complete battlefield novice, how could the Qing court really let him command the army, most of them are equipped with a few deputies.
However, Tu Hai, the head of the heroes who put down the rebellion of the three feudatories, was dead, and Wang Wu couldn't imagine that the Qing court would have any generals who could fight well.
I don't know where the four traitors in Hexi are nesting now.
No matter who is actually in command, as long as the three old commanders do not make big mistakes in the current situation, even if they cannot break through the blockade of the Qing army and enter Shaanxi, it should not be a problem to persist in Wushan and Maolu Mountain for a year or two.
This is also the reason why he went to Jingzhou with peace of mind.
The thousands of old and weak women, children, and wounded who were transferred out not only unloaded the "burden" of the three veteran commanders, but also indirectly helped the base areas to "streamline the administration of the army."
It's just that I really didn't expect Mulima to be laid off.
Originally, Mi Sihan and Da Yuer and Xiao Kangxi took the line and then opened a way out to prevent the Aobai brothers from crossing the river and demolishing the bridge, but he didn't want Da Yuer to draw Mu Lima with his backhand, and sent a prince to Kuidong instead.
It is not clear why Ao Bai agreed to Wang Wu, but it is obvious that Da Yuer is quite politically skillful.
Xiao Mazi dared to worship, and behind him there must be this old woman supporting her grandson.
There are many episodes in the Battle of Xishan, but I don't know if history will advance it.
Potential is the reason why Wang Wu has been able to get to where he is now, but if he relies on the potential he understands, I am afraid that he will also be harmed by the potential.
Thinking of this, the mind of running Jingzhou became more and more urgent.
No matter how the enemy changes, having a gun in your hand is the last word.
I couldn't help but ask Zhang Changgeng: "When will your silver arrive?" ”
Zhang Changgeng said angrily: "Someone has been called to raise it, five days at the latest." ”
More than 700,000 taels of silver is not a lot of money for the governor of Huguang, so he asked his staff to use a brush to dot on the account here, and there is a circle.
In the past three years, the silver that has been sprinkled by his hands by Zhang Changgeng has not been 10 million taels, but 8 million taels.
Small amounts.
But when he thought that Wang Wu, a kid, was raising private soldiers in Jingzhou with the silver of the Qing Dynasty, Zhang Changgeng was still somewhat unhappy in his heart.
"You can ask someone to send the silver directly to Jingzhou, 700,000 taels will do, and the remaining tens of thousands of taels will be counted as I will invite you Lao Zhang to tea."
Wang Wu was very generous, and he gave Lao Zhang more than 60,000 taels of filial piety at once.
If calculated according to the doubled expenses of the salaries of the soldiers of the upper battalion, a soldier's annual salary plus food, drink, housing and transportation expenses will be at least 60 taels, plus the consumption of weapons and equipment and training, more than 60,000 taels can allow Wang Wu to raise 1,000 soldiers for a year.
But with a big wave of his hand, he gave it to Zhang Changgeng, and his handwriting was not small.
"Huh?"
Zhang Changgeng was stunned, "Why don't you give me tens of thousands of taels to go back to Wuchang?" ”
Niu Wancheng came, not very happy.
"Isn't Mulima going to take you back to Yanjing?"
Wang Wu politely moved a chair for Niu Qi.
"Lord Dutong, don't be happy with the old cow, the old cow is nothing now, yours is the work of the big shopkeeper, alas, if you know this, the old cow shouldn't be blinded by lard"
Niu Wancheng looked dumbfounded.
I really didn't calculate that Mulima would get out.
Get out of here, but you fucking talk and take him back to Yanjing.
As a result, in the name of trust, he stayed in the war zone and continued to drill ravines, and he was not a human being.
"Why did you change your accent with Mulima?"
Wang Wu was a little weird when he heard Niu Qi speak.
"Yes?"
Niu Wancheng didn't quite understand what it looked like.
Wang Wu turned his head and asked Turge: "Do you have a Japanese man in the Eight Banners?" ”
I asked casually, but I didn't expect Turg to say that there were really Japanese people in the Eight Banners.
Studying it carefully, there were Japanese people working in the Eight Banners as early as Taizu's meeting.
Some of them were Japanese deserters who crossed the Yalu River to defect to the Jurchens during the invasion of the Japanese Kingdom, and some of them were hundreds of Japanese soldiers dedicated to Taizu by Jiang Hongli, the marshal of the Korean capital, after the Battle of Sarhu.
In addition, there were thousands of Japanese soldiers in the Ming general Liu Wei's department, and those Japanese soldiers who were not killed after Liu Ling's death were incorporated into the Eight Banners.
Because of his bravery, he was very popular with Taizu.
After a long time, he intermarried with Manchuria, and his descendants became real Manchuria.
Some of the customs of life and the way of speaking have also been preserved.
Similarly, there are the Eight Banners of Goryeo.
Wang Wu smiled, he didn't think that it was really the way these Japanese soldiers spoke that "infected" the Manchurians, but that many of the Manchurians were not fluent in Chinese, so it was a familiar awkwardness to listen to them.
"And what are you going to do in the future?"
This is to know whether Niu Wancheng is ready to continue to stay in the war zone and act as the eyes and ears of the Ao Bai brothers, or whether he will start from scratch and lick Prince Kang's Jieshu instead.
didn't think about it, Niu Wancheng said very seriously: "Lao Niu won't listen to anyone in the future, just listen to the fifth master." ”
"Listen to me?"
Wang Wu was skeptical of the sincerity of Niu Wancheng's words.
"As long as the fifth master orders, go up to the knife mountain and go down to the sea of fire, my old cow will never give up!"
may have seen Wang Wu's suspicion of him, and Niu Wancheng immediately expressed his loyalty.
"Are you sure you're listening to me?"
Wang Wu needs to confirm it.
"Go up the knife mountain and go down to the sea of fire!"
Niu Wancheng is determined.
Seeing this, Wang Wu pondered for a moment, and said happily: "Since your old cow has a resolute attitude, then I don't want to brush off your kindness, so let's do it, I plan to build a secret trail between Maolu Mountain and Xingshan Mountain, and this trail is located in your defense area, what do you think?" ”
"Ah, the fifth master, is this trying to make me collaborate with the enemy? If it doesn't work, I can't do it, and if the court knows that I can't cut off a hundred heads. ”
Niu Wancheng was shocked, he couldn't do this.
