Chapter 403: Expo, Congratulations to King Yan for His Great Victory
"King Qin..."
"enough!"
Just as Lu Ben opened his mouth in anger, Zhu Biao's voice of quenching ice crystals sounded.
Everyone's expressions changed.
The prince has always been good-tempered.
So furious.
The first time was in the ninth year of Hongwu. In order to refuse the feudal vassal, King Yan called for a fight for the heir apparent.
The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty rose up to attack.
The prince was furious.
The first time was related to Zhu Silang.
This time, it is related to Zhu Silang again.
But, times have changed.
Zhu Silang now no longer needs the prince's protection.
Zhu Biaohan looked around at everyone with a cold face, "The army should be united as one during the war. As the upper echelons of the army, is this how you set an example?"
Everyone bowed their heads.
"I don't want anyone in the army to discuss infantry and artillery coordination or anything other than war. If I hear it again, no matter who it is, don't blame me for marching in the name of the commander!"
Zhu Biao glanced at Zhu Xi and Lu Ben.
Turning to Tang He, "Third uncle, write the victory report for the court. At the same time, send someone to chase the fourth division and tell the fourth brother the news of our victory."
Tang He nodded and said with a smile, "Okay, I'll take care of this."
"Prince." After speaking, he made a suggestion, "Beiyuan suffered heavy losses in this battle. The elite of Beiyuan are thirty miles away. We have to defend. I suggest that the vanguard seize the time to retreat tactically backward, and at the same time send people to urge the center. The army speeds up its march..."
Although, Beiyuan experienced such a huge defeat.
It may not necessarily be the case when word spreads and morale is low.
But when marching and fighting, you can never be too careful.
The prince led the northern expedition and achieved such a hearty victory in the first battle.
This victory must not result from not being careful enough and leading to victory first and then defeat.
Zhu Biao understood what Tang He meant, nodded obediently, and immediately ordered: "Pack up your gear, prepare to retreat, and put distance between you and the main force of Beiyuan. At the same time, Yongchang Marquis, immediately sent his troops to inform General Fu Youde on the middle road to speed up towards us." Get closer."
The order was issued, and the new armies in the four towns began to operate quickly and orderly.
Slowly retreated backwards.
The generals accompanied the army as they marched.
Quietly looking at Zhu Biao's back.
The meaning expressed by the prince's anger just now was very clear.
Infantry and artillery coordination does not involve arguments other than war and is not allowed to be mentioned.
It is to tell everyone that they are not allowed to argue about the origin of infantry and artillery coordination in the army.
Let the Marquis of Zhongshan draft a successful report to the court, that is to say, for the court and the people, it can be mentioned that the infantry and artillery coordination came from King Yan.
rear.
Hu Weiyong rode slowly to cooperate with Lu Ben, observing the artillery pieces pulled by the horses as they passed by.
Even as an enemy.
He had to admit it.
Zhu Silang is really an outstanding person.
The battle of the prince.
To win so heartily.
To put it bluntly, the foundation is the new army, long-barreled muskets, and artillery that can move easily with the army.
Also, because they were worried that the foundation of the new army in the four towns of the imperial court was insufficient, the infantry and artillery coordination would not be fully exerted due to its improvement.
…
After a while, his eyes turned away from the yellow, orange, and cold artillery.
From the corner of his eye, he saw that Lu Ben was unhappy, smiled and whispered to comfort, "Master Lu, what happened today may not be a good thing..."
Hearing this, Lu Ben looked at Hu Weiyong...
"The prince's attitude towards the infantry and artillery coordination has at least shown that as a superior, the prince will never allow Zhu Silang's reputation to be too high in the army!"
This is the instinctive reaction of a superior person.
As long as it exists.
Even if the prince doesn't want to destroy the brotherly relationship with Zhu Silang, it doesn't matter.
The prince will ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor in the future.
He is the emperor of Ming Dynasty.
Represent the interests of Ming Dynasty.
These people can definitely contribute to the conflict of interests between Daming and Zhu Silang.
The prince's current performance.
As long as there is a conflict of interest between Zhu Silang and Daming.
As the emperor, the prince will resolutely safeguard the interests of the Ming Dynasty!
They can completely use their interests to gradually disintegrate the brotherly love between the prince and Zhu Silang.
This world.
It is extremely difficult to do something well.
I want to make something stink and ruin it.
There are so many vulnerabilities to exploit.
Although the prince is excellent, he still has many flaws.
The same goes for Zhu Shiro.
The reason is that at this moment, they have no way to start.
In the final analysis, it was because Emperor Zhu was on the throne.
Emperor Zhu has been emperor for seventeen years.
How many more years can it sit?
ten years?
Twenty years?
As long as you have enough patience, you can kill Emperor Zhu just like Sima Yi killed Cao Cao.
The situation in Ming Dynasty.
It must be like Cao Wei, who has undergone tremendous changes!
…
Lu Ben's eyes gradually brightened, and he looked vaguely at Zhu Biao's back.
…
Beiyuan sweat tent.
"Report!"
The scouts hurriedly broke in and reported hurriedly, breaking the lost and dead atmosphere in the sweat tent, "Khan, Prince Meng has led the new army of the four towns to retreat back!"
call!
Togu Si Timur and others raised their heads one after another, and everyone secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Togu Si Timur looked around at everyone.
Everyone was driven to despair by Mentaiko's fighting ability.
I thought that Zhu Silang was powerful enough.
Unexpectedly, this Ming Taizi Zhu Biao has never been as famous as Zhu Silang in terms of military and even civil affairs.
The ability to command operations is so strong!
On the battlefield during the day.
They just stood and watched from a distance.
Witnessed it with my own eyes.
In the dense barrage.
The proud grassland cavalry fell in groups.
During this period.
The artillery behind the Ming army roared continuously.
The two elite direct descendants of the royal court.
Lost in a dozen breaths!
The entire royal court only has 200,000 such elites.
One battle today.
One tenth of them were lost!
After returning, someone weakly suggested that they should press 300,000 elite troops here and rush back to avenge Prince Ming immediately.
As long as Prince Ming can be captured, even if the loss is great, it is worth it!
But the person who proposed it, in the end, his voice was so small that it was inaudible.
Those who made this suggestion were afraid.
After all, no one knew whether Prince Ming, who had such a talent for command and the art of war, had any tricks.
What if it was to lure their main forces out together?
Tang He was still worried that the main force of the Northern Yuan Dynasty would be dispatched.
No one would have thought that in this battle, from Toghon Temur to the generals of the Northern Yuan Dynasty, all were frightened by the power displayed by the coordinated infantry and artillery.
For a time, no one had the courage to put all the main forces on the line.
"You have seen the ability of the Ming prince to lead troops..."
Toghon Temur's voice sounded, interrupting everyone's thoughts.
Zhang Yu lowered his head and curled his lips.
The tactics of the new army of the court today were proposed by the crown prince Zhu Biao?
He didn't believe it!
This tactic is obviously a tactic used in conjunction with the new pure firearms army.
The new army of the court was trained by copying the detailed outline of the first regiment of the fourth army.
Crown prince Zhu Biao, a prince who has never had any war experience, can come up with such a brilliant and powerful tactic?
The fourth often talks about the law of development of things.
This matter, if it is placed on the crown prince, is obviously not in line with the law of development of things!
The crown prince is probably still groping and learning the new army.
How could it fly up all of a sudden?
Of course, he would not remind these people.
The fear of the Northern Yuan Dynasty would help the court win this battle.
"Let's talk about how to fight the next battle!" When Zhang Yu was thinking secretly, Toghon Temur ended the conversation.
He looked at everyone with a serious look.
The ability of the crown prince Zhu Biao to lead troops is so strong.
There are so many arrogant and brave generals who have been in battle for a long time.
How can we weaken the Ming army?
If we lead the Ming army to Buyuer Lake, can we really surround and kill this elite Ming army?
Despair spread in Toghon Temur's heart.
He even had an idea.
If he couldn't beat the Ming army, he would run to the west.
He had seen the power of muskets and artillery.
The Northern Yuan Dynasty had few skilled craftsmen and backward skills, so it couldn't fight the Ming army.
You can use muskets and artillery made with backward skills.
Equip the elite of the Northern Yuan Dynasty.
Cooperate with the iron cavalry.
If you can't beat the Ming army, you can retreat to the west and bully the barbarians in the west, right?
Didn't the Huns and Turks in history do this?
If you can't beat the people in the Central Plains, go all the way west and bully the barbarians in the west.
However, he didn't dare to make this decision at this time.
Once this choice is made.
He will no longer be the leader of the grassland!
The generals of various tribes who have been trained over the years will inevitably abandon him.
His majesty was inherited from the Yuan Dynasty, which built its capital in Beiping.
He didn't even want the land of his ancestors.
He was completely away from the Central Plains.
This majesty would disappear in an instant.
"Khan!"
Suddenly, a voice sounded, and Zhang Yu, like everyone else, looked in the direction of the voice...
Arutai said calmly: "Khan, the Ming army is powerful, there is no doubt about that, but they also have weaknesses. First, their battle line is long enough. As the battle line lengthens, the supply line formed by hundreds of thousands of civilians behind them will become longer and longer..."
...
"I think the fourth prince of the Ming Dynasty led more than a thousand cavalrymen to cross the grasslands. We also left a large number of herdsmen cavalry along the way, and let a small number of elite commanders constantly harass the fragile supply lines behind the Ming army, forcing the Ming army to keep leaving troops to defend..."
Toghon Temur and others' eyes brightened instantly.
Zhang Yu stared at Arutai and talked freely, frowning slightly.
It must be said that Arutai's strategy was vicious.
The court kept leaving troops to maintain the supply line.
First, there were fewer troops available for combat.
Secondly.
The Ming army was scattered in the grasslands. The troops of the Northern Yuan Dynasty who stayed behind to harass the enemy could suddenly gather together and attack one or several supply points!
In short, if they could win, they would fight, and if they couldn't win, they would run away.
In this way, the total force of the Ming army arriving at Buyuerhai would be reduced.
Once the Ming army suffered a disastrous defeat at Buyuerhai.
The supply points along the route would be swallowed up by the Northern Yuan army that defeated the main force of the Ming army in an instant.
In short, Alutai's strategy was to prepare for the defeat of the main force of the Ming army at Buyuerhai.
"Secondly, the Ming army has fire guns, and we have them too. We all know the disadvantages of fire guns. Fire guns are not even as good as fire sticks on windy and rainy days. The Ming army can't even ensure that the fuse is ignited. This is the time for us to launch a large-scale harassment and attack on the Ming army. It is February now. After the arrival of spring, the grassland will not only have strong winds every day, but also very frequent winds, and the rainfall will gradually increase. On the way to lead the Ming army to retreat to Buyuerhai, as long as the weather is such that the new Ming army cannot fight, we will launch a large-scale harassment war..."
...
Alutai became more and more excited.
Finally, he confidently concluded: "The total number of Ming troops is 500,000. The fourth prince of the Ming Dynasty took away 130,000 along the way, and Zhu Biao's main force was left with 370,000."
From Zhangbei to Buyuerhai.
Thousands of miles.
With the supply line being constantly harassed, the Ming army must have left at least 70,000 to 80,000 soldiers, right?
Anyway, although the number of herdsmen cavalry gathered from small tribes is large, their combat effectiveness is relatively weak in regular battles in the wild.
Let them do this.
It's the most suitable.
"We will continue to launch offensive harassment along the way, which can at least consume 70,000 or 80,000 Ming troops? The harassment adopts the tactics of our ancestors flying kites... When the main force of the Ming army arrives at Buyuerhai, there will be only a little over 200,000 left."
Alutai glanced at Zhang Yu.
By then, Buyuerhai will have only 100,000 elite troops of Liaoyang Wang Nahachu defending Helin.
There will be nearly 500,000 elite troops of the Northern Yuan Dynasty in the entire Buyuerhai.
More than twice the number of Ming troops!
The chance of winning is at least 60%!
If it is a windy or rainy day, the new army of the four towns of the Ming Dynasty and the artillery will not be able to exert their power.
The chance of annihilating the main force of the Ming army is greater!
Of course, these are not suitable to be said.
However, he believes that except Zhang Yu.
Everyone else in the Khan's tent understands what he means.
As Alutai judged. The upper echelons of the Northern Yuan Dynasty, led by Toghon Temur, all showed smiles on their faces.
Clap, clap...
Then, Toghon Temur took the lead and warm applause broke out.
The atmosphere of despair after the defeat was swept away from the Khan's tent.
"Okay! Let's do it according to Alutai's proposal. At the same time, send someone to inform the King of Liaoyang of our subsequent plans!"
...
The new army of the four towns of the imperial court won a great victory two days later.
Sanxiakou.
A camp built on Sanxiakou rose from the ground.
Zhu Di took Xu Da, Zhu Su and others to the camp built on the side of Yinshan Mountain.
Watching the 10,000 military captives who surrendered on the battlefield, they came out of the gate of the Sanxiakou camp and slowly went to Zhangbei under the supervision of a thousand cavalrymen.
Zhu Su smiled and said, "Fourth brother, this group of captives is the most bizarre I have ever seen!"
Damn!
These captives are too honest.
During this period, help build the Sanxiakou camp together.
During this period, they also peeled bark and made ropes by themselves.
At first, he was curious about what these Mongolians were doing with ropes.
It was not until today that he understood.
Today, this batch of captives will be sent back to Zhangbei, and then the court will send people to transfer them back to Hebei.
Fourth brother's navy will send ships to receive these captives.
This is what my father has already agreed to.
Fourth brother has also made preparations to receive captives.
When these captives left the camp, under the orders of several thousand captains, they helped each other and tied their hands with the ropes they made themselves.
They looked like they were afraid that they would not do well and that Fourth Brother would not want them.
This was his first time leading troops to fight.
But he had seen captives before.
It was the first time he saw captives so docile.
Especially, they were a group of grassland nomads!
The young people around Zhu Di were all laughing when they heard this.
Xu Da looked at Zhu Di out of the corner of his eye.
It's not that the grassland people have become docile.
They are only docile in front of Si Lang.
Grassland people worship the real strong.
In the eleventh year of Hongwu, after Silang traveled across the grassland, in the hearts of the grassland people, Silang was an absolute strong man in the hearts of the grassland people.
This time, Silang successively conquered Zhangbei and Sanxia!
His reputation is even better!
And it doesn't stop there.
He secretly contacted several thousand men who surrendered to Silang with their soldiers and asked them why they were willing to be Silang's followers.
At that time, several thousand men said in unison: On the grassland, the lower-class people don't know Silang's achievements in civil governance, but they know.
They even know that Fujian is becoming more and more prosperous under Silang's construction, everyone can have enough food, and it has become a province with a large tax revenue for the court.
Your Majesty will also tour the south.
They even know that Silang has laid a foundation overseas.
These thousand men clearly think that following Silang can lead a good life.
Of course, the premise is that Silang has a reputation in the hearts of the grassland people!
Both are indispensable.
When everyone is thinking about it,
Zhu Di retracted his gaze, "Taishan..."
Xu Da came back to his senses and looked at Zhu Di.
Zhu Di raised his foot, stomped on Yinshan under his feet, raised his hand and pointed at Yinshan and said: "If the court wants to truly eradicate the hidden dangers of the grassland, it cannot only rely on military strikes. Throughout history, the nomadic peoples of this land are like grass. After cutting a crop, another crop will grow in 20 or 30 years..."
About how to rule the grassland.
He has always had a lot to say.
It's just that this time when he returned to the court, the limelight was too great.
It's not suitable to say.
After setting up a camp at the Three Gorges Pass.
Taishan was also by his side.
It's just right to tell Taishan about this matter.
Let Taishan bring it up in the court.
"Our effective rule in the Central Plains cannot be limited to the Great Wall. If the court is worried about taking too big a step, it can rely on the Yinshan Mountains to establish a defensive line. Like the Three Gorges Pass leading to the north, we can build military fortresses to control stand up……"
From the northern part of the Central Plains, there are some places with harsh natural environments in Shanxi and Shaanxi.
A group of Han people migrated.
During this northern expedition, some small tribes that were docile and willing to be loyal to the imperial court were selected from the north of Yinshan Mountain and moved to the south of Yinshan Mountain.
"After these small tribes migrated, they chose high-quality pastures with fertile water and grass to settle them down. The tribesmen were divided into ten households per fort, and fixed pastures were allocated. Businessmen from the Central Plains provided them with the tea and salt they needed. The cattle, sheep and horses they produce are trafficked back to the Central Plains. As rural communities continue to expand, the demand for cattle and horses will be greater among the people, and the Central Plains will also consume more and more meat such as sheep... "
Economy comes first to stabilize these migrating, docile and divided tribes.
Then there’s culture.
Use the Central Plains culture to gradually integrate the grassland culture.
Forming a new Central Plains culture outside the Great Wall.
Collide with the culture within the Great Wall.
In the collision, cultures absorb each other and ultimately achieve development.
"I asked Commander Qiu Fu, and he said that corn cultivation was very successful in Liaohetao. Thousands of people from the Central Plains migrated here to build earthen cities near the grassland tribes. The court promised that in ten years, even No taxes were collected for twenty years, allowing them to reclaim wasteland and develop agriculture. In more than ten years, a mixed Hu-Han area was formed south of the Yinshan Mountains and north of the Great Wall. Under the effective rule of the imperial court, the culture of the Central Plains was assimilated into the nomadic culture of the grasslands. …”
Ten years.
This area has developed enough to become a sacred land.
He has been fortunate enough to be in this area.
Agriculture and animal husbandry are extremely prosperous.
"At this time, the imperial court can establish counties in densely populated areas and set up inspection departments in sparsely populated areas, transforming this area from a semi-inhibitory area into a ruling area, without expecting this area to be able to No matter how much taxes the court contributes, as long as this area can maintain a balance of revenue and expenditure for officials and garrison, I think it is worth it to bring it into effective rule. "
"If our government can implement this for a long time without seeking economic benefits, we can even invest some in the early stage. As long as we ensure that the balance of payments in the ruling area is balanced in the later stage, within fifty or sixty years, there will be no nomads in the north, and there will be no more nomads. Culture is just a kind of integration and absorption of nomadic culture, the new Central Plains culture!”
"The hidden dangers in the north will be eradicated once and for all!"
Xu Da and others opened their mouths slightly, looking at the excitement in surprise.
Unable to bear it, Zhu Di suddenly raised his arms and swept across all directions.
actually.
Zhu Di was still conservative.
He expected it.
As long as the grassland is developed.
Promote rural village communities suitable for grassland herders and Han people who have migrated to the grassland.
The grassland of the future.
It was by no means just a balancing act of imperial rule.
Its economic contribution exceeds that of many existing provinces in the Ming Dynasty.
The resources of the grassland have actually been wasted and idle.
For example, cattle, sheep and horses, as well as the fur and offal produced by them, are thrown away casually by the people on the grassland, and there is no economic benefit.
But only the people from the Central Plains migrated.
After being incorporated into effective governance.
After opening up business relations.
This part of the empty consumption and wasted resources will be revitalized first, creating huge economic benefits.
in history.
In the late Qing Dynasty, many businessmen made a fortune by bringing the wasted resources of the grasslands back to the Central Plains.
Become the wealthy owner of an incredibly wealthy country?
And he envisioned getting through.
It will be smoother than the historical Qing Dynasty.
If the rural village cooperatives can cooperate with the employee-share system.
Countless people will live a prosperous life from it.
Under this land.
It also contains high-quality iron ore and coal that are easy to mine.
These are the black gold bloodlines most needed in the first industrial revolution.
A magnificent era, an era in which the Central Plains has swallowed up thousands of miles, has ignited a spark in each rural village in the Central Plains.
The court is now preparing an extra copy.
When a spark of fire forms a prairie fire.
Only in this way can we devour more land, population and a series of resources.
The coming great era will be more magnificent and colorful!
He is only in his early twenties now, so he can probably borrow another forty or fifty years from heaven, right?
There is a high probability that we can see the arrival of this era.
When the time comes, no matter what you say, you have to go back to the Central Plains to take a look.
Of course, in his vision of a great and prosperous era, the court must first be stable and able to listen to some of his advice.
He is now increasingly unfit to make more remarks in the DPRK.
These things.
We can only rely on people like Taishan, Fang Xizhi, and Xiongying to push it forward.
Very helpless.
But it must be accepted.
"Good boy!" Zhu Zi whispered, "Fourth brother, your imagination is too big. Isn't the entire Saibei grassland larger than the territory of our imperial court? This...this..."
If this is according to the fourth brother's idea.
Their old Zhu family has been swallowed up!
The dynasty of Lao Zhu's family may become...
"This is the dynasty with the largest territory in history, right?"
Zhu Ju smiled and glared, "Not only does the territory have a large area, not to mention the employment-share system, and rural village communities are fully completed, our old Zhu family will be the richest dynasty!"
Zhu Di turned around, looked at the surprised brothers, and said with a smile: "You are all vassal kings in various places now. For this day, you should also contribute your own strength, for example, actively work step by step in your fiefdom. , build rural villages one after another in a practical and orderly manner..."
He once proposed that his father support his brothers to develop outside like him.
I don’t know if my father will agree.
their generation.
Thanks to the fact that the old man pays close attention to their education issues.
They are probably the generation with the most outstanding and balanced overall quality among the princes of the Ming Dynasty.
As long as Lao Wu, Lao Ba and Lao Thirteen are willing to work hard, they are fully capable of promoting rural village communes under their own rule.
Accelerate the prosperity of the Ming Dynasty.
In the future, even if the eldest brother cuts off the feudal clan.
Seeing as the brothers left him such an inheritance, he should also give him a good home, right?
Zhu Yunwen forced 'him' to live in a pig pen.
Such a thing as forcing your own uncle to death.
At least it shouldn't happen, right?
In short, as long as the brothers are willing to work hard and do their best, they can make things that are beneficial to the development of the Central Plains.
In the future, if it is inevitable to reduce the vassal status.
He was willing to lend a helping hand.
And for good reason.
They are his brothers.
He worked hard for his ideas.
He has every reason to reach out to help, and he must reach out to help!
The talents of brothers who have grown up through the implementation of rural village communities should not be wasted in captivity.
They have the ability to contribute their own strength to China, which will continue to stand at the pinnacle of civilization in the next millennium.
Deserves something better too!
A vassal king with only one city is nothing!
"Um!"
Zhu Di and the others looked at Zhu Di's eyes with burning expectancy. For a moment, they felt their blood was a little hot and they nodded solemnly.
Xu Da, Qiu Fu, Zhu Neng and others saw all this.
Xu Da smiled and said: "Okay, I will talk to His Majesty about this matter."
He knew Shiro's current situation.
Such an ambitious plan to dig up roots.
If Shiro proposed it.
Not only would it shock the world, it would also be detrimental to the low profile Shiro wanted.
Those who are hostile to Shiro.
There will also be no debate about whether the plan is good or bad.
To oppose Shiro.
"Good news!"
"Victory news for the main force!"
Ta-ta-ta...
At this moment, the sound of horse hooves, accompanied by shouts, came from a distance.
Everyone followed the sound and looked...
Several riders, with three-color flags on their backs, rushed towards the camp.
Zhu Di looked away and said, "Let's go down to the camp."
When Zhu Di returned to the commander's tent in the camp.
The soldiers are already waiting in the commander's tent.
The soldiers were soldiers sent by Tang He and were not hostile to Zhu Di. Chang Mao and others could not influence Tang He's soldiers.
When the soldiers saw Zhu Di, they immediately stood up, knelt down on one knee, and held up the message: "Deputy Commander, the Marquis of Zhongshan has sent me the news of the success of the main army!"
Zhu Di took the good news and opened it...
When everyone saw Zhu Di looking at him, their brows gradually tightened.
They couldn't help but look at each other suspiciously.
Just when everyone was impatient and scratching their hearts, Zhu Di looked away from the victory report and said with a smile: "The prince led the new army of the four towns and fought for the first time in Chenchahar with Beiyuan's 50,000 cavalry. This battle, with At the cost of losing 3,000 people, more than 37,000 enemies were wiped out!”
Everyone was astonished.
Including Xu Da.
Zhu Ru couldn't wait to ask: "Fourth brother, tell us, how did the eldest brother fight?"
Brother is so awesome?
Fourth Brother only managed to annihilate more than 20,000 enemies in the two battles at Zhangbei and Sanxiakou.
The eldest brother wiped out more enemies in one battle than the fourth brother?
Could it be that the eldest brother is a handsome man who was delayed by his position as prince?
Better than fourth brother?
Zhu Di smiled and introduced: "In this battle, the eldest brother will form four towns of new troops in five horizontal lines. They will spread out the array to form a cross fire strike. Four artillery battalions, divided into three sections, will line up behind the infantry and take the lead in firing. Bombard the Beiyuan cavalry..."
The army's first town generals headed by Tan Yuan and Zhang Wu.
Listening, his face was slightly embarrassed.
Isn't this the infantry-artillery coordination tactics that the prince described to them on the flagship on their way back?
How could the prince know this tactic?
Did the prince tell the prince?
But the army's first town hadn't practiced yet. How could the prince rashly tell the prince a fantasy tactic?
What if something happens to the prince?
The prince must bear a great responsibility!
Would the prince be so reckless?
The princes headed by Zhu Xi also looked a little strange.
The thirteenth old man, Zhu Gui, couldn't help but murmured in a low voice, "Isn't this Fourth Brother's infantry and artillery coordination..."
Zhu Xi immediately glared at Zhu Gui and asked with a smile: "Fourth brother, is this what you and the eldest brother said, right?"
Tang He's soldiers looked at him curiously.
When the prince's father-in-law, Mr. Lu, had a dispute with the King of Qin.
At that time, he was following Zhongshan Hou and was right next to him.
Zhu Di nodded with a smile, "Yes, it was me and my eldest brother who told me."
call!
Zhu and the others were obviously relieved.
Zhu Xi smiled and said: "Eldest brother won a big victory. Fourth brother, when should we set off?"
"Don't worry, it'll be the day after tomorrow. Our road is divided and we have few troops. We must be fully prepared for every action and be ready to deal with difficult and dangerous situations at any time."
…
Zhu Di gave a few words of advice.
Tell the soldiers to wait.
After everyone leaves.
Xu Da was left alone, sitting aside and looking at Zhu Di, "Tell me honestly, is it really what you and the prince said about infantry and artillery coordination?"
He had to make sure of this!
If Shiro hadn't told the prince.
It is very possible that the prince planted someone next to Shiro!
This is so chilling!
This person has even entered the decision-making level of Shiro's army!
Now the prince is using infantry and artillery in a majestic manner.
Do you want to make Shiro suspicious?
If that's the case.
He would persuade his daughter and son-in-law not to interfere in whatever happened to Daming in the future.
If you can’t afford to provoke him, you can’t afford to hide from him!
Zhu Di and Xu Miaoyun did not inform Xu Da that Jin Yiwei came to Lu Zhen.
Only the Lu Zhen brothers were involved in this matter.
As well as Zhu Di and Xu Miaoyun's husband and wife knew about it.
The couple were not sure who was behind Jin Yiwei's actions.
So, I don’t want to make things big.
As for the Jin Yiwei that Ji Gang installed in Dongfan.
Mao Laoliu had already dispatched members of the Military Intelligence Department to contact Zhu Di.
In the future, we must remain calm and let Jin Yiwei develop the members of the Military Intelligence Department into Jin Yiwei.
Zhu Di will not send the Military Intelligence Department to the Ming Dynasty.
But Jin Yiwei's system is on his territory.
He will definitely use the Military Intelligence Department to reverse infiltration into a sieve.
In the future, Mao Laoliu will be asked to help members of his own Military Intelligence Department perform meritorious service and improve the status of members of the Military Intelligence Department in his territory's Jinyiwei system.
It is not impossible for the Military Intelligence Department to directly become the person in charge of the Jinyiwei system within his territory!
He did not eliminate the Jin Yiwei in his territory.
I don't want to damage the relationship with the court.
But within his territory.
Jin Yiwei must not be out of his control!
He is now not only his father's son.
Still a husband.
Father of three.
Teacher to dozens of children.
The leader of more than 30,000 brothers!
The lives and fortunes of countless people are closely related to him.
If it weren't for Jin Yiwei being from the imperial court.
This kind of hidden danger.
He had already eradicated it physically.
Zhu Di smiled and said: "Taishan, I really told my brother about this, but..."
The smile disappears.
Sighing silently.
"The main force consists of the new army from the four towns, tens of thousands of muskets, and more than a hundred artillery pieces. If possible, infantry and artillery coordination can be carried out..."
Before dividing the troops.
He told his elder brother alone about the idea of infantry and artillery coordination.
At the same time, remind brother.
Don't use this trump card too early.
When you encounter difficulties, bring them up.
This move can help the eldest brother regain his prestige in the military during difficult times.
Can help big brother break the dilemma in one fell swoop.
Produce a game-changing effect.
"But I didn't expect that my eldest brother would use infantry and artillery coordination so early. The new army in the four towns had not practiced complete infantry and artillery coordination. Although I don't know the detailed process, I am very sure that they did not practice complete infantry and artillery coordination. So , the scaled-down version of the infantry and artillery coordination they used has huge loopholes!”
"Sooner or later, Beiyuan will figure out this loophole."
"Moreover, today's firearms have natural disadvantages. On windy and rainy days, the new army can only become a cold weapon combat army. I am very sure that after this battle, the Beiyuan side will definitely take advantage of the upcoming The coming spring grassland climate has created a strategy specifically designed to suppress the new armies in the four towns! "
Exposed this too early.
A trump card that can turn the corner.
Not only will it encounter difficulties in the future, it will not be able to perform miraculous effects.
He also alerted the snake.
Let Beiyuan have a deeper understanding of the new armies in the four towns.
The gain outweighs the loss!
The gain outweighs the loss!
Brother, what's the hurry?
Why, despite all the instructions, was he still eager to play this trump card!
reason……
He also guessed a little bit.
Very helpless.
From the perspective of the eldest brother, the eldest brother did this for his own consideration.
It’s enough for him to keep making meritorious deeds.
Even Lao Shisan and the others were doing well in the partial division.
The eldest brother is the coach and the prince!
Countless pairs of Ming Dynasty eyes stared closely.
A lot of pressure.
But this trump card is for the elder brother to use to turn things around!
New troops in four towns, more than a hundred artillery pieces.
The array of guns moved forward, and the artillery fired.
When the enemy is unprepared.
Even facing the 300,000 elites of Bei Yuan, they can still fight their way out!
"It's too late to say anything now." Xu Da looked deeply at Zhu Di.
He would have been relieved if the prince had not sent someone to lurk around Shiro or even enter the decision-making level.
After pondering for a while, he asked: "You left your second uncle's personal soldiers because you wanted to write a letter to the prince?"
Zhu Di nodded, but hesitated a little.
say what?
Tell the eldest brother not to rush for success, but to work steadily and move forward step by step?
Will big brother listen?
Will it upset people if you talk too much?
After all, they are just brothers, not father and son.
If it were Yong Ming or Jin Douzi, he would catch up with him on horseback right now, take off his shoes, and start beating them wildly.
Zhu Di smiled bitterly...
Xu Da stood up and said, "You don't have to write. I'll write it. I'll write it to your second uncle and tell your second uncle what you mean."
Compared to Shiro.
It was more appropriate for him to write this letter to his second brother.
Side effects are smaller.
Zhu Di pondered for a moment and nodded: "Then there will be Lao Taishan."
Xu Da stared with a smile and strode away.
…
at the same time.
Wusongkou.
The Ming Navy stopped a fleet of nearly 100 warships and merchant ships.
Yu Tongyuan stood on the Ming flagship.
Compared with the warship flagship that broke into Wusongkou, the flagship looked like a small toy.
It was only one-fourth the size of the Dongfan Navy flagship.
Yu Tongyuan stood at the bow, his face slightly dark, and he looked up and shouted angrily: "Yu Jing, why are you back again!"
Damn it!
I sat in a toy boat, looking up at my son, riding a five-meter-high ship.
Shameful!
Yu Jing stood at the bow of the flagship, trying his best to hold back his laughter, pounding his chest and saluting, and said seriously: "General Yu, my army has recently been fighting pirates in the East China Sea. A group of merchant ships carrying local Fujian and overseas specialties are going north. We will escort them on the way and see if my prince has captured any prisoners and transported them back to Dongfan. When my army left Jinling, His Majesty specifically ordered that my army can move freely in the river leading to Jinling!"
"Little bastard! I will give you a good beating when I get the chance!"
Yu Tongyuan muttered and cursed in a low voice.
His Majesty did give such an order.
However, it is only allowed during the northern expedition.
Yu Tongyuan said with a dark face: "Half a month ago, there was a victory report from the front. The Prince of Yan led the first regiment of the army to conquer Zhangbei."
"Did the prince conquer Zhangbei?"
"I have decided that the goods will not be sold this time!"
"Yes, not for sale! How about we hold a free tasting event to celebrate the prince's first victory?"
"Let the people and merchants of Jinling taste and appreciate the Fujian and overseas specialties we brought?"
"Pay attention to this! Not only celebrate the prince's victory, but also promote the things we brought! How about calling it an expo?"
"I just don't know if His Majesty will agree?"
...
Behind Yu Jing.
A group of merchants and powerful people heard about Zhu Di's victory in Zhangbei and talked excitedly.
Yu Jing tried his best to suppress his excitement. After returning the gift with his chest, he said loudly: "Please let General Yu pass. We, the Dongfan merchants, are going to Jinling City to hold an expo to celebrate the prince's victory!"
What does it feel like to have a son showing off in front of his father?
At this moment, Yu Tongyuan has the most say!
He angrily glared at Yu Jing who was looking down at him, and waved his hand.
The Ming Dynasty navy warships slowly made way for the waterway.
One hundred ships, led by the flagship, advanced inland from Wusongkou.
"Tsk tsk tsk, so many fully loaded merchant ships, how many good things did you bring back this time?"
"I heard that many people rushed to buy the spices brought back last time."
"When will our court have such a 33-meter-long giant ship?"
"Look at our general, he is a head shorter than his son!"
"It's so embarrassing!"
...
On the warship, the officers and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty navy envied the fleet advancing inland and talked about it.
Yu Tongyuan's lips twitched.
He couldn't help but smile again.
His son has made progress.
He is also happy!
Yu Tongyuan didn't know.
At this time, the news of the great victory at Sanxiakou was also passed back to Jinling.
The navy warships led by Yu Jing and the sea merchants were even less aware of this...
