Chapter 90: Guo Huaiyi

In the late Ming Dynasty of later generations, the little whites beat their chests and lamented the lack of support for Guo Huaiyi's uprising in Taiwan and failed, after all, how could the people's sickles beat firearms, but the pot itself was not carried by him, so they all fought with the idea of resisting the Netherlands and aiding Guo, and they were full of momentum to take Taiwan.

But after the elders really inspected the situation in Taiwan, they understood the unsustainability of this model, although Taiwan was touted as a treasure island, but in this era the development of the difficulty is huge, from the Three Kingdoms Sun Quan, it is known that there is a big island in the southeast, but, its soil governance, water sources are unfavorable, annual typhoon pit father, in short, in the Middle Ages, its development difficulty and cost are huge.

No one has a front and rear eye, and with the idea of counterattacking the Celestial Empire here, there is a good chance that they will be dragged to death by the huge investment in the early stage.

Guo Huaiyi is just a little brother under Zheng Zhilong's system, in fact, it is not eye-catching, it can even be said that Zheng Zhilong took refuge in the Ming Dynasty, and then participated in the war, transforming from a smuggling merchant to a generation of warlords, which can be said to be outrageously strong.

However, this man also has some ability, so he was sent to use it as a civil official, of course, this blackened man is no different from other pirates.

However, this man still knows how to do things, and has diligently maintained the organization of the rebellious peasants throughout history, and in the end thousands of people died in the massacre of the Dutch, but it was not incompetent, but it was a matter of days.

Mu Rongshan didn't think that such an ordinary ancient person had anything to look at, it was nothing more than another story.

"Thank you, I'm afraid these materials are not easy, it's hard for the New Year."

Guo Huaiyi was a little excited, he just relied on the identity of Tong'an to eat in Zheng Zhilong's group, in fact, he was not a very favored character, Guo Huaiyi in history, his resources and strength were pitiful, and there were many traitors, so naturally it was more likely to fail.

Guo Huaiyi said: "I heard that the elders had a big event in Vietnam, and the general of the family immediately mobilized everyone, and everything that could be transported was transported to help the war, but unfortunately there was a shortage of personnel. ”

Mu Rongshan smiled and said, "Legend has it that the richest merchant in the sea has half of the fields in Fujian, so there is no money?" ”

Guo Huaiyi was a little embarrassed, these people smuggled to make a fortune, they bought land everywhere in Fujian, just as the Shaolin Temple was in Henan, and the Confucian Mansion was in Shandong, which can be said to have greatly raised the price of land in Fujian, (see today's Xiamen) also made the original interest groups very dissatisfied with them, so to speak, the future collapse of the Zheng family, rather than being too high-profile, also has an unshirkable responsibility.

Guo Huaiyi said: "The general is just an empty shelf, and there are too many people at home who eat with him. ”

Mu Rongshan said: "Okay, to make a long story short, this time in Vietnam, you have to cooperate, after the matter is completed, it is natural to pay a big commission, do it well." ”

Guo Huai saw more of the hypocritical faces of Ming officials, and all kinds of high-sounding words came out, in fact, they were just for money, they often used the master as a white glove for trading, and the greedy face was all the master, but in essence, all of them were greedy.

This elder from the north is different, Guo Huaiyi has heard some things, talking about the new atmosphere in the north, but he is immersed in things, how can he have the leisure to study this?

"Obey the elders."

"Let's talk about the future of work, the previous list, your people from Guangdong brought not too many bone-setting doctors, of course, I also understand, the Chinese New Year, in its own ordinary days, there are not many people willing to go out, let alone come to this kind of place."

Guo Huaiyi said slowly: "The villain begs for a living on the coast all the year round, and knows that although these barbarians also admire the customs of my Celestial Empire in their hearts, they are the most despicable and untrustworthy, and the common sense of their people is that it is their ability to deceive people, and they are also smug, and they are the most shameless." ”

Mu Rongshan nodded and said: "I know, it's nothing more than a matter of cost, the cost of betrayal is too low, eh, of course, this is not what we care about, the Yue people are also a genus of China, but occasionally divide the system, but for a hundred years, aren't we just going to overkill." ”

Guo Huai's heart moved, and he said: "Elder, did you mean that you want to swallow Vietnam ......?"

Mu Rongshan said coldly: "Pay attention to the words, it's a return, it's a reconquest, well, that's it." ”

Guo Huaiyi immediately understood the difference, in any case, it was not good to use the word annexation to describe the adults of the Celestial Empire, although Guo Huaiyi didn't think it was any different from their sea lords cutting each other.

However, since Zheng Zhilong has been whitewashed, he naturally has to follow others well.

Guo Huaiyi still has this bit of wit, and immediately flattered him and said: "I didn't expect the elder to trust the villain so much, and tell me such a secret, Huaiyi will definitely take the land of Vietnam for the elder, and he will never leak half a word to those people, if I say more, I will be punished for rolling iron nails and getting into the ......oil pot."

Mu Rongshan waved his hand, this set of Jianghu words, this person said it quickly, but I don't know how many times he said it to people, he had more contact, and he also found that the low-level civilians were not as stupid as he imagined, and they all had An Lushan's ability to pretend to be rough, of course, this may also be related to the elites he came into contact with from the bottom.

"Bone-setting doctors, I give them a high subsidy, isn't it just for today, we don't care about other things, the soldiers under Brigadier General Zheng have been fighting very well recently, and they should be rewarded, as for the rest, you don't have to worry about it."

Guo Huaiyi hesitated a little and asked, "What does the elder mean?" ”

Since it has been decided to "recover" the lost territories of Vietnam, why are the Vietnamese still being so funded?

Mu Rongshan smiled and said: "Conquering a piece of land, or taking people's hearts first, how many hearts do you think are on our side?" ”

Guo Huaiyi said: "I heard the elder say just now that Vietnam is originally the land of China, but the language and writing are completely different, how can it be done in such a land, the villain is not a lot of things, I want to understand clearly, so as to help the elder do things." ”

Mu Rongshan said: "Language may be the most useful thing in the world, but it is also the most useless thing, at least, in the face of money, they have no possibility of existence." ”

How can a group of uneducated people be taught a language?

One thing that people like in later generations is to let a group of death row prisoners accept the choice, either shoot or train for a few years, fight hard, and shoot again if you can't win the championship, how can you also win a World Cup championship......

Of course, this question ignores that if the person opposite the person is the same death row prisoner, the death row prisoner against the death row prisoner, this winning rate is ......

In the same way, if you let people learn a language and shoot them if they can't say it, I really don't know whether it's good or not.

There is no shortage of rice in Vietnam, and there are a lot of various vegetables, but there is a lack of meat, but fortunately, there is a supply of the whole of Guangdong, and dozens of pigs can still get it.

In the place managed by the elders, no matter what the situation, discipline is the first priority, even if it is to receive food, it is required to line up neatly, and there is no embarrassment of congestion before and after.

"Eat grapes without spitting out grape skins, don't eat grapes ......"

At the front of the queue, a group of Vietnamese soldiers lined up honestly, they were originally local people, but now they are shotguns for guns, and they have been incorporated into the new forbidden army of Lord Zheng Zhun, with military salaries, meat and vegetables, and even, if they read it right, they will be rewarded.

"Very good," Ji Bingyan waved his hand and said, "It's good to say it by the way, reward a bowl of braised pork!" ”

Someone brought a small bowl of braised pork to the soldier.

The one who followed began to follow, stumbling and continuing to recite.

"No, the mouth is not good, next."

This efficiency is still very high, and there are many pots of meat in the back, waiting for everyone to come and collect it.

Zheng Zhun has no opinion on rewarding the three armies, under the previous war, although the losses were not small, but the losses of the army on the opposite side of Hanoi were even greater, and his own people had exercised and brushed up on experience points, so to speak, it had changed from a defensive position to a strategic balance.

And with the unloading of the ship's goods one by one, Zheng Zhun's army was also strengthened little by little, although there was no unified uniform, but after being equipped with many swords urgently purchased from Guangdong, they also looked decent, these things were not affordable before.

However, what does this mean by slipping away, these Chinese have too much interference.

"Virtuous son-in-law, what does this mean, why did the person who taught me speak Chinese?"

"Of course it's for the war."

Mu Rongshan's eyes widened, and he said: "You know, our Dayue grass is dense, and the weather is warm, which is suitable for field battles, hasn't there been an enemy who has attacked us many times at night before, I just thought, teach these people Chinese, let them use it as a mantra, if it is a night battle and is attacked, shout, eat grapes and don't spit out grape skins!" While cutting people, everything that can't be answered is an enemy, what do you say? ”

This reason is somewhat powerful, but it is really not unreasonable, after confirming that they could not fight against Zheng Zhun's Mauser troops, the Hanoi side did not sit idle, but began to dig the barracks, surround, confront, and at the same time send thugs to carry out night sneak attacks, and achieved great results, being robbed of at least a dozen rifles, and in turn striking at their own side.

It is impossible for people to pay attention 24 hours a day, this kind of mutual killing has increased, and it has gradually been figured out the truth and reality, because Mu Rongshan has consciously reduced his intelligence support for Zheng Zhun, so it is not surprising that it is like this.

The Hanoi side has more manpower and more elite soldiers, and after figuring out the performance of the Mauser, although a suitable strategy has not yet been found for a large-scale frontal confrontation, a sneak attack night battle is always the best strategy for a weak army to pull the enemy to a level with itself.

If it weren't for the lack of talents, especially managerial talents, Zheng Zhun would not like to let those Han businessmen join his subordinates, and now his own logistics are completely in the hands of these Han people.

In later generations, because the memoirs written by those well-known generals are often written about the fierce generals under their command, but there is a lack of descriptions of the officials of the logistics department, which is also normal, logistics management, trivial, troublesome, easy to make mistakes, not easy to make achievements, and there is no G-point, think about it, how energetic it sounds to run thousands of miles to destroy 100,000 enemy troops, and raise a hundred tons of food for our army and transport it to the position, which sounds more cool?

Even if it is made into a TV series, no one has watched the footage of a group of big men pushing a cart to deliver food.

Therefore, it would be too false to expect Zheng Zhun to have any vigilance about this kind of relatively low-level work.

Laymen talk about equipment, insiders talk about logistics, and strategists talk about the industrial chain.

The discomfort only comes from the fear of the Vietnamese rulers for the Central Plains Dynasty, after all, according to tradition, every unified Central Plains Dynasty has two tasks to do, a fight in Liaodong, a fight in Vietnam, and then live in peace for a hundred years.

However, if he really understood the true intention of this good son-in-law to teach his subordinates to learn tongue twisters, he was afraid that he would shout that the Chinese were cunning.

Of course, there is also good news brought by Murong Mountain.

"Father-in-law, that's it, they already have plans to retreat, according to my impression, they plan to get out of the way, occupy a strong place, and wait for the rainy season to come, our weapons will lose their effect, and all kinds of grass and woods are also good places for sneak attacks, you see, we are still few people."

"It's okay, I'm going to go straight to Huanglong and take the capital, you see how it goes."

Mu Rongshan smiled and said: "It's really a grand strategy, worthy of being a person who has led troops for many years, of course I fully support you, I have a good talk with the people of the Zheng family, they said that when you go back to transport goods, you must be careful of pirates, you can't leave all the artillery, but you can also squeeze out three cannons, plus the buffalo we requisitioned, you can fully participate in the storming work." ”

Zheng Zhun's eyes lit up, although in this era, the cannon has not yet been called the god of war, but it is definitely better to have this thing than nothing, compared to the Mauser gun, although the lethal effect is outstanding, but after all, there is no cannon in the momentum to shake the world, and after seeing the power of the new rifle of the Celestial Empire, his interest in artillery has also increased.

"Come on, let's discuss the next tactics."

The choice of tactics in war is determined by the quality and equipment of soldiers, and the quality and equipment of soldiers are determined by the structural characteristics of society as a whole.

Without a nation-state identity, only the patriarch and the emperor are there, then there is a lack of a system that can quickly condense into combat effectiveness.

Just as Chinese go overseas and use the national anthem to communicate, often in the crisis that needs to be dealt with, they can quickly unite and become a rope, which is the role of culture.

The people of the Zheng clan in Hanoi have long since retreated.

I had to run, in the past, there were some people who talked nonsense about poisonous smoke hurting people, it was just smoke caused by igniting with feces and some leaves, and many times it was not fatal. 2k reading web
