468 Zhenliao Regiment

Sometimes, slaughter, though unkind, is no less a means of winning. com

You are only qualified to say this if you win first.

Li Zixiao will never allow his generals to kill the people of his country.

But if killing the people of the enemy country can do it to himself and weaken the enemy, Li Zixiao doesn't mind what his subordinates do.

Of course, not everyone can keep their sanity in war.

Perhaps, only in China, which pursues Confucianism, the massacres caused by the war are relatively few, but for barbarians like the Tartars, the massacres are too normal.

The population of the Ming Dynasty has exceeded 100 million at this time, and to put it mildly, let you Tartars kill, how many can you kill.

Therefore, at this time, even if the Tartars follow the strict conscription requirements of one out of five, and the men of the whole clan from sixteen to fifty have to fight, they can only pull out an army of seventy or eighty thousand.

Otherwise, now Huang Taiji would win over Mongolia, submit to Korea, and establish the Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty, because he realized his biggest flaw.

No matter how many sheep there are, they can't beat the tigers and wolves!

And for these ferocious wolves, killing a fierce wolf is not the most hurtful, but the most hurtful thing for them is to kill those young wolves and she-wolves, that is the way to cut off their roots.

Of course, when the time comes, he will not personally order it, and the province will leave a stain on him.

Even if it is to be punished, it is also slight, and even for those 'backstabbers', Li Zixiao will compensate from other aspects afterwards.

Generally, when encountering the kind of things that Li Zixiao is not suitable for ordering, or will damage his reputation, but it is something that Li Zixiao wants to see, there will be a 'backstabber' to stand up.

According to Li Zixiao, a courtier who can share the worries of the monarch is not the best courtier, but a courtier who can take the blame for the Lord is a real good courtier.

Li Zixiao's White Dragon Army wants a group of butchers, butchers who can kill the enemy, not a group of gentlemen who talk about benevolence, righteousness and morality with the enemy.

"The two generals were able to understand the righteousness, abandon the darkness and turn to the light, and resolutely go anyway, and General Ben was very happy.

Le Yu and Li Ping had already seen the First Fleet of the White Dragon Army sailing into Port Arthur with their own eyes at this time.

Needless to say, Li Ping, who was born in North Korea, had never seen such a huge gunboat at all, while Leyue had followed Mao Long in his early years, and his horizons were broader.

At this time, the two of them knew that this time there was no internal response from them, and with the strength of the White Dragon Army, it would be easy to defeat this small port city of only 1,000 people.

"Thank you for the general's reward, and I will go to the soup in the future, and I will never give up." The two knelt down in unison to thank the reward and show their loyalty.

Li Zixiao wants to convey a message to all the generals who surrendered to the Tartars.

And Leyu and Li Ping are examples of his money buying horse bones.

However, Li Zixiao was not satisfied with this.

The main reason is that Huang Taiji also transferred a group of troops to Jinzhou in the hands of the 'Shandong Three Traitors'.

Li Zixiao carefully asked Li Ping and Le Yu for a while, and learned that the information he had was indeed correct.

Jinzhou was originally established by the Ming Dynasty, the guards of Jinzhou Wei were stationed in the city, and Lushun was the station of Jinzhou Zuo.

Qingniwa is also the later Dalian.

Therefore, he sent people to Lushun early and used the intelligence officers of the intelligence bureau lurking there to collect intelligence on the Liaodong Peninsula.

If you look at the map, you will find that from Jinzhou City to Lushun, this area is a sharp corner protruding from the Bohai Bay.

At the time of the Ming Dynasty's apocalypse, Liaodong was lost, the situation deteriorated, and someone in the court once proposed a plan.

The Ming army relied on this artificial canal to hold Lushun, and sent people to garrison Lushun to defend Lushun, thinking that it was a barrier on the Shandong Peninsula.

But because the imperial court had no money and food at that time, this plan was not implemented in the end.

Li Zixiao values this area because there are two of the best ports in Lushunkou and Qingniwa.

You must know that a large warship with a draft of seven or eight meters deep like a three-masted gunboat cannot be anchored anywhere.

More importantly, if they are allowed to occupy the Golden State Lushun.

Li Zixiao came here, not with the intention of finishing the fight, he really wanted to occupy this territory for a long time.

If Li Zixiao wants to send troops to occupy Lushun for a long time, sooner or later he will attract heavy troops from the Tartars to encircle and suppress him, after all, Huang Taiji will not want to see that there is an enemy army that is always entrenched next to his territory.

On the side of the couch, how can you allow others to sleep soundly!

In this way, Li Zixiao needs a general to guard Lushun for him.

After the White Dragon Army had just landed in Lushun, Li Zixiao directly ordered Liu Chong to lead 6,000 soldiers to the north and go straight to Jinzhou, striving to take Jinzhou as quickly as possible.

Qingniwa is also a port as good as Arthur Port, and the Qingniwa City here at this time is actually the Dalian Port of later generations.

Since the Tatars captured this place, the number of merchant ships coming and going in the green mud valley has also decreased as greatly as the Lushun side.

"Yes, General, my subordinates are leading troops to attack Jinzhou." Liu Zhong also said with full of fighting spirit.

After you conquer Jinzhou, you can continue to lead the army to the north, build fortifications there, and win strategic depth for us.

Golden State City is your last barrier, and the Tartars must not be allowed to cross it. Li Zixiao said in a deep voice, this is also his future plan.

"It is estimated that Geng Zhongming is in Jinzhou at this time, and he has not yet known the news that Lushun was captured by us, and Geng Zhongming does not have many people in his hands at this time, so there is a great chance that you will successfully capture Jinzhou.

Even if you really continue north and conquer Fuzhou and Yongning, you can't stay there for too long, and after searching the city, you will retreat.

I will stay in Lushun for about a week before returning to Tamna.

However, at this time, the Tartars are planning to attack Jinzhou, and they should not be able to take care of you here in a short time, and this time is also the best time for you to consolidate the defense of Jinzhou. ”

Li Zixiao is necessary, and he is giving Liu Zhong a good advice, after all, this is about the lives of the eight thousand White Dragon soldiers, and it is about Li Zixiao's plan, and there can be no accidents.

Finally, Li Zixiao waved his hand behind him and shouted.

When Liu Chong saw this military flag, his face flushed, and he couldn't be excited.

"The subordinates are here." Liu Zhong fell to his knees on one knee.

Your Zhenliao Army must be firmly rooted in Jinzhou like a nail, and in the future you will be the vanguard of General Ben's counterattack on Liaodong.

Li Zixiao held the 'Zhenliao' military flag in his hand, slowly handed it to Liu Chong, and asked.

We will hold on until the day when the general leads the army north and counterattacks the Tartars, and then our 'Zhenliao Army' is the vanguard of the general's counterattack on Liaodong. ”
