Chapter 864: Mobei Mongolian Tribes
Because of the martial arts of the Northern Ming Dynasty, many aspiring young people also joined the army, coupled with the large population of the Ming Dynasty, the source of soldiers is not a problem, and the improvement of military strength is inevitable.
Of course, the problem is not without it. For example, some veteran generals in the army, the matter of deducting military salaries still exists, but fortunately, Shi Wanshan is still upright, which does not often happen in Wanquan Dusi and Xuanfu. There is also a major problem, which is caused by the ambivalence in Emperor Daizong's heart.
He wanted to improve the combat effectiveness of the army, but he was also worried that the strength of the army would be too strong, and one day he would be overpowered, and if he did not obey his orders, the power of the eunuchs in the army would become greater and greater. This is indeed a means of counterbalancing the generals in the army, but at the same time, it also buries a contradiction. In the end, Yu Can also said, "Sixth Young Master, after Shi Wanshan has gone through this incident, he has indeed become famous, and it seems that he is incomparably beautiful, and there are even many people who join the army for this reason, which will play a great role in promoting the strength of the Xuanfu army." But once the eunuch Deng Qiang, who has a good relationship with him, is transferred, in exchange for a person who is not of the same mind, the internal constraints must increase, and it is unknown how many achievements the combat effectiveness can play. ”
Yang Chendong listened very carefully, did not interrupt the other party's conversation, and nodded his head from time to time. After the other party finally stopped, he nodded, "Yes, Yu Can analyzed it very well, this young master has written down these things, and he knows how to do it." Well, this time your identity has been revealed in the city of Taru, have you ever thought about where to work next? ”
"It's all up to the Sixth Young Master." Yu Can said without picking or dropping. This time he made a meritorious service, although he only conveyed the order, but the courage to risk himself was still recognized. The most important thing is that until he left, he didn't show the slightest bit of his feet, he didn't expose the radio, and Shi Wanshan still couldn't figure out where his information came from, this ecstasy array was very good, which was also one of the main manifestations of his meritorious service, with these, I think there will be appropriate arrangements for the next work.
"Alright, you can go to North Korea next. Recently, their naval activities have been very frequent, and they have repeatedly passed by the naval ships we have transported supplies, and the distance between the two sides is getting closer and closer. ”
Compared with the previous status of the team leader, the director is equivalent to a higher promotion, which is an affirmation of Can's work and a reward for him. At that moment, Yu Can stood up and saluted, "Please rest assured, Sixth Young Master, I will definitely find out the situation over there as soon as possible, once the war starts, we will be the eyes and ears of the army." ”
"Haha, good, good." Yang Chendong laughed with satisfaction.
The Ming Dynasty forbids the sea, and the power of the sea is already very limited, especially the existence of the navy in the Northern Ming Dynasty, and because of the geographical and environmental reasons, there are not many people who know how to water, even if they want to form, there are many problems that need to be solved, and it is not a temporary effort. North Korea is different, they originally relied on the sea, and the naval industry has always been very developed. Kaohsiung, commander of the First Maritime Army, reported that he had recently staggered with the DPRK Navy several times when transporting supplies to Haizhen, and although everyone refrained from doing anything, the meaning of the other party's investigation was very clear.
People who have no long-term concerns will have near-term worries, and the DPRK issue should be prepared. Yang Chendong sent Yu Can over to do a deeper understanding and investigation.
Yu Can's inauguration, there is no need for Yang Chendong to worry about it, after the new army replenishes the source of troops and returns to a complete system, Yang Chendong immediately sets his sights on the Mobei Mongolian tribe. According to the information provided by the Security Bureau, the fleeing Toya had already found the two generals, Narisong and Baoyin, and quickly gathered 40,000 cavalry and went straight to the vicinity of the Yuma River, where they fought against Fan Yuhai under the slogan of King Qin.
Fan Yuhai, who had already prepared, led the Son of Heaven to order the princes, and played the name of Sude Khan, on the grounds of exterminating the rebels, with 35,000 cavalry, and Narisong had a bloody battle on the grassland. Both sides have suffered casualties, and now they are at a critical juncture of fighting each other.
"It's time to go." Yang Chendong, who got the information, immediately called Hu Mang, Shebei and Xiao Feng and other generals, and after some discussion, the army was scheduled to start a day later and go straight to the Mongol tribes in Mobei.
Bars and Tan, north of the Yuma River, were temporary capitals built at the end of the Yuan Dynasty. In the west of the city of Choibalsan in present-day Eastern Province of Mongolia, in the middle reaches of the Krulun River in North Balshot.
At this moment, a cavalry battle is being staged here, tens of thousands of cavalry on both sides are constantly hedging against each other in this area, the war is ten days, and there is no intention to stop, blood drips on this grassland, looking at it from a distance, it is red, and it seems to be a sea of blood.
On the one hand, he brought the Son of Heaven to order the princes, saying that it was to quell the chaos, but he just wanted to steal the command of the Mobei Mongolian tribes.
One side shouted King Qin, Qing Jun's side, wanting to regain the supreme power of the Mobei Mongolian tribe and repeat the glory and majesty of the Golden Family.
The two sides did not give in to each other, the war from the earliest small-scale battle, only sixty or seventy thousand cavalry joined, to ten days later, more and more small tribes for various interests to join it, the number of iron cavalry has been rising, the number of people to reach 100,000, and there is a steady stream of various forces to join the battlefield, so that the scale of this battle is getting bigger and bigger, has exceeded the imagination of the original two sides.
Fan Yuhai originally thought that controlling Sude Khan was equivalent to mastering the lifeblood of Mobei Mongolia, and when the time came, he only needed to marry the county lord of Toya, and after he had enough fame, he could unload the mill and kill the donkey, and then he ascended to the heights and shouted, naturally there were countless responders, and he had the confidence to call out to the mercenaries. In time, it will become one of the overlords of the grassland, and it is not impossible to finally unify the grassland.
Unexpectedly, it didn't seem to be a difficult thing, because Su De faked the medicine and told the truth to Lord Toya, so that he suddenly fled and had an accident. Although he has used this time to master some Mongol troops, and with Sood, it is equivalent to having great righteousness, and it seems that he has the upper hand. But he forgot one thing, everyone has ambitions, especially the Mobei Mongolian tribes originally did not have a concentrated army, and there was no big city to rely on.
In the past, when Sud Khan was there, with his understanding of these small forces, he could still forcibly command them. But now, Sud Khan is lying in bed every day, looking like he is eating and waiting for death, and no matter what political affairs, the whole tribe is in chaos.
It had only been ten days since the war began, and no less than a dozen leaders of small tribes had already come to him as guests, ostensibly to meet Sud Khan, but in fact they were negotiating with Fan Yuhai, a real family member, to seek their own interests.
The leaders of these small tribes, some of them only commanded a few hundred cavalry, some had a thousand cavalry, and some of the most powerful ones had thousands to thousands. The conditions they put forward are also based on their own strength.
The stronger the small leader, the more benefits he asks, and the weaker the small leader, the fewer the benefits he asks, and even some only need a thousand horses and sheep to satisfy.
Facing the tribal leaders who came to negotiate with him, Fan Yuhai did not refuse. He didn't have that many resources in his hands, but it didn't matter, he had Sud Khan in his hands, and he had great righteousness, so he gave away a large area of land and a lot of fertile grazing land, just to refute the support of these tribes for him.
Anyway, the territory is not his own, and Fan Yuhai was not distressed at all when he sent these out. Not to mention that he still has Xiao Jiujiu in his heart, once he defeats Toya's army and truly becomes a khan, he can quickly take back everything he has sent out now with military power. When the time comes, if anyone disobeys and dares to resist, then kill him.
Fan Yuhai has always been a person who will do whatever it takes to achieve his goals. It used to be at the time of Cochin, and it still is.
Fan Yuhai's generosity spread to all directions, and some of the small tribal leaders who wanted to wait and see, but did not want to make a move, were also moved, and came to his tent to seek benefits, and after being satisfied, batch after batch of cavalry joined the barracks, and Fan Yuhai's power became more and more huge.
There are strong and weak, and in comparison, the development of the county lord of Toya is too slow.
Someone also came to ask for benefits, but Toya did refuse on the grounds that everything was up to his father, Khan. But she still doesn't forget to say that once someone helps their father and daughter, she will be grateful.
It's just a word of gratitude, and if there is no real return, there will naturally be a lot less support. For a while, more small tribes went to Fan Yuhai's side, and it won't be long before they announce that they have joined their camp.
After a few short days, news came from the scouts in front that outside Fan Yuhai's barracks, the camp had been expanded three times in a row, and from a distance, the number of cavalry had long been dense and could not be counted.
When the news came back to Lord Toya, the faces of the two generals who supported her, Narisong and Baoyin, were very ugly. According to the current situation, if they start a war with Fan Yuhai, I am afraid that there will be more evil and less luck. But it was at this time that a new news came that General Xihaba of the Mongol tribe in Mobei was coming straight to them with 30,000 cavalry. The cavalry of the front army was less than ten miles away from them.
