Chapter 484: Qing Jun's Side, Su Palace? (The third update, reward plus more)
Qingjun side? Is it just those servants and guards?
"Your Majesty, please ask the soldiers of the Beijing battalion to get rid of the rebellion and correct the name!" Liu Hong gradually put down the account in his hand and walked in front of Chongzhen.
"Quasi-play! You can deploy as many soldiers as you need. Chongzhen didn't hesitate at all, the two of them had been waiting for this day for half a month.
There is always a war, but sooner or later.
"It doesn't take too much, just order Lu Haibo and Wu Binghao's 23,000 battalion cavalry, Lin He's 10,000 Shenji battalion musketeers, plus 2,000 grenadiers, it's enough!"
The grenadier is a newly formed unit of the Shenji Battalion, which is specially used to deal with cavalry, each grenadier carries ten grenades, and when the enemy cavalry rushes into battle, the grenades can instantly cover the battlefield within 30 steps.
Half of the soldiers of the Shenji Battalion have now received the new rifled guns, which not only doubles the attack range, but also has a lot more power.
The cavalry of the 3,000 battalions were all equipped with handcuffs, and although this thing could only shoot one shot, it was very easy to carry.
The handcuff is inserted diagonally on the outside of the thigh for easy access during battle, and the cavalry charge is extremely fast, and can be used as a bow and arrow by surprise when the two sides meet, and when the horse is off the horse in close combat, this thing can almost increase the soldier's chance of survival several times.
At Liu Hong's request, whether it was cavalry, musketeers or grenadiers, they all knew how to ride, and the steam engine had no clue, and they had to rely on war horses to be fast these years.
The reason why there is no heavy artillery is because it is too slow, and second, because it is not necessary.
In their own territory, they don't even need to bring too much food and grass supplies, and since they conquered the Northeast and Banla Menggu, the Ming army has no shortage of war horses.
When the expedition was made, a horse and a camel and a horse put dry food, and the baggage was not much, and they could be supplied in various states and prefectures along the way.
Since the beginning of October, Liu Hong gradually went out of the city to meet the enemy, and in only ten days, more than 30,000 cavalry troops passed through Xuzhou to Luzhou Mansion through the Daimyo's Mansion.
The four towns of Jiangbei have been slaughtered since last year, and they are all new armies formed later, and the soldiers of the four towns are added together to a total of about 100,000.
Zhong Xinbao, the chief soldier of Luzhou, was about forty years old, and served in the border army for more than ten years when he was young.
"Mr. Zhong, this king has never been as tired as you in ten days of rapid marching, what's the matter?" Liu Hong gradually had doubts.
"Back to the prince, it wasn't the rebellious Zhu Changrun who did it, he got the report that the rebel army went north twelve days ago, so he reorganized the army day and night, lest there be an omission that would ruin the prince's major affairs.
But who knows...... Who knew that after waiting for more than ten days, there was not even a shadow of the rebel army. Zhong Xinbao complained.
Although there are 100,000 soldiers in the four towns of Jiangbei, they are stationed in four large cities, which are also some distance away, and the closest road for the rebel army to go north is Luzhou and Yangzhou.
At first, I heard that the rebel army was called 150,000, but the old Zhong was nervous, and behind the two states was Fengyang, the central capital.
"Wait? Are you saying that the rebel army has not yet reached the border of Luzhou? Liu Hong was stunned directly, and said in his heart that Lao Tzu had been killed for more than a thousand miles from the capital to Luzhou, how far is Nanjing from Luzhou?
Nima, is this Zhu Changrun joking?
……
In fact, it's not that Zhu Changrun doesn't want to be fast, the reason for the speed of the soldiers is clear, and he also wants to lead the rebels to be invincible and take the capital.
But he couldn't walk!
This group of nobles who live in the south are used to being pampered, where is there still half of the ancestors' remnants.
Including Zhu Changrun, the king of Hui, all the nobles and uncles actually marched in carriages, and the commanders were still like this, and the soldiers were even more crooked.
The guards are not only backward in armament, they are not trained all year round, they are similar to peasants, and they have half the momentum of soldiers in tattered clothes.
Due to their lack of experience, it took six or seven days for the 80,000-strong army to prepare only one load.
The army went out of Nanjing City, traveled thirty miles a day, marched to the direction of Luzhou at the speed of a snail, stopping and stopping along the way, and by the way, the passing nobles joined in.
Not to mention, Zhu Changrun, who is in his early fifties, has no ability, his mouth is quite slippery, and the team has grown again along the way.
There are a lot of guards in the south, all of which are under the jurisdiction of the Governor's Office of the Five Armies, and the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies is the world of the nobles, and they have gathered 20,000 miscellaneous guards along the way.
With the addition of the original 80,000, Zhu Changrun's army has exceeded 100,000, and Zhu Changrun simply did not call it 150,000 with a wave of his hand, but directly claimed to be 200,000.
He is in a good mood, what does it mean that those who have attained the Tao help more and those who have lost the Tao have less help? What does it mean to be expected?
Look at it, the 100,000 army behind you is the best proof of this!
The soldiers gathered more and more, and Zhu Changrun swelled day by day, and even changed his slogan, and he did not call Qingjun to the court, and bluntly said that Chongzhen had four major crimes.
It is disloyal to violate the ancestral system one after another, it is unfilial piety to dig up the ancestral grave during his tenure, it is unkind to massacre the courtiers, and it is unjust to attack the relatives who are retired with the country.
How can such a disloyal, unfilial, unkind and unrighteous person deserve to be honored in the Ninth Five-Year Plan? It's simply a disgrace to the ancestors of the Zhu family!
Although he Zhu Changrun is not talented, he is also a royal bloodline, and he has the blood of Emperor Taizu in his body, so he will definitely not sit back and watch the Zhu family be destroyed in the hands of Chongzhen.
is old, and there is an opportunity to sit in a seat that I didn't dare to think of before, and no one is excited.
The reasons for the rest of the nobles in the army are even more sufficient, Chongzhen is unkind, and wants to change their lives, who can bear this?
The group of soft eggs in the north can be caught with their hands tied, and they southerners are all iron-clad, and they can't do it.
Dingguo Duke Xu Yunzhen's reason is more sufficient, his brother Wei Guogong was detained by Chongzhen and sent to prison, and the two eldest nephews shouted for him to come out, plus King Hui made a wish, the army is in hand, and the revolution ~ life? It is not certain who will take whose life!
"Dingguo Gong, are we marching too slowly?" Zhu Changrun woke up from his conjecture and suddenly realized that they had been on the expedition for more than ten days, and they had not yet reached the border of Delu Prefecture.
Wu Zhong, the general of the personal guard beside him, was overjoyed when he heard this, my lord, you know that the march is slow!
"Well, back to the prince, thirty miles a day is a bit slow, at this speed, it will take three days to reach Luzhou." Dingguo Gong Xu Yunzhen is not young, and he poked his head out of the carriage and said to Zhu Changrun in the other carriage.
Wu Zhongxin said, not only is it a little slow, it is very slow!
Alas, the future is worrying! But who made the prince kind to his Wu family?
"General Wu, pass on the king's order, the whole army accelerated its march, forty ...... a day No, fifty miles a day! ”
……
Luzhou Mansion, the camp of the Ming army.
"Nima, is Zhu Changrun's old miscellaneous hair a snail?" Liu Hong gradually shouted in the camp.
He had been repairing in the camp for three days, and the rebel army had no shadow, if it weren't for the fact that he wanted to rely on the fortified city to reduce losses, Liu Hong would have gone out of the city to meet the attack as soon as possible.
"The prince is angry, and he has long been accustomed to his humble position." Zhong Xinbao was happy in his heart, thinking about the prince, you only knew, I have been waiting for 20 days.
"No, we can't wait any longer, the order will be opened immediately, and this king will go out of the city to pick them up!"
