The wind stopped, and the cold in Saibei came to an end at the end of March. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Spring has come for a long time, the warm wind smokes the tourists drunk, and some people regard Yangzhou as Bianzhou. Ni Yuanlu, on the other hand, wants to turn the grassland where the grass grows and warblers fly outside the plug into a new state in the Ming Dynasty.

"Liaodong's action is really fast...... Ni Yuanlu rode on his horse and slowly took a secret letter into his arms.

This is no ordinary letter. The letter is neither a private letter from a high-ranking official or a eunuch, nor a letter from a family member at home, nor a letter from a subordinate in blood seeking war. Although, Ni Yuanlu has received all these things. But there is no doubt that none of the remaining letters can match the weight of this one.

Because, this is a private message from the ninety-five lord of Jingshi.

It is not a reply or a decree, but a private letter of reminiscence and concern.

The different form reveals the sincerity of extra care.

With this letter in his arms, Ni Yuanlu couldn't help but recall every word on this private secret letter from His Majesty the Emperor Zhu Cihong.

He has watched it countless times and reminisced countless times, and Ni Yuanlu, who has been called a prodigy since he was a child, can even memorize the secret letter word by word at this moment.

Zhu Cihong wrote the letter in person, naturally wanting to express the content, rather than simply some external forms.

There are few words of greeting in the letter, and the beginning is a list of the military expenses spent on the transfer of troops in the Privy Council.

"This time, the Privy Council mobilized troops and horses, first mobilized a total of 1,300 workshops in Jingnan Gongfang District, Qiming City, Nanzhili, Kaifeng, Linqing and other places to bid for tenders, and issued 3,6029 orders, involving 79 kinds of military funds. In addition, the Cabinet also met quickly, approved a total of 10 million yuan worth of emergency military expenditure, and expanded the annual military budget by 20 million yuan. And this, for the first time, I didn't see Fu Qing's family crying and crying poor...... Ha ha...... And that's not all......"

In every word, Zhu Cihong's strong self-confidence and a kind of happiness are revealed.

Da Ming is a big country. It is really regrettable that the war potential and war strength of a big country are not as great as that of a Qing country in the bitter cold land of the northeast. It's just that the efficiency is low, obviously you can crush the past by relying on your volume, but you can't play it for a long time, that kind of feeling, self-binding hands can no longer be described.

Having said that, the war potential of the Ming Dynasty is really different from what it used to be. In particular, in the past three or four years, Zhu Cihong's team has grown stronger and stronger, and it has become more and more familiar with more professional and standardized military logistics work.

This point was attached great importance to Zhu Cihong at the beginning of the Kaifeng War.

With a professional and powerful logistics team, the stimulation of the empire's war potential is naturally a multiplier of the past Ming.

In terms of military spending, after restoring the credit of paper money, the imperial treasury was finally able to solve the decades-long sham.

And the production of ordnance, with Qiming City, with Jingnan Workshop District, there are countless workshops in Kaifeng, Nanjing, Linqing, Jingshi, and North and South Zhili.

With these rapidly growing workshops, the production and supply of these ordnance is no longer a problem. Of course, the most important thing is that the empire has an adequate military budget. Even if there is waste in the bureaucratic system, there is no need to worry about squeezing the people too much and harming the people's strength.

On the contrary, there were a large number of military orders that stimulated civilian employment, so much so that for the first time the civilian population felt the benefits from the war. That is the abundant orders to stimulate countless jobs, there is a job, there is money to earn, happy business can naturally live in peace.

Living and working in peace and contentment is the ultimate dream of countless people in this era.

Now, in the hands of Zhu Cihong, there is great hope for realization.

In Zhu's letter, classified data outlines a more powerful empire.

And in the end, looking at Zhu Cihong's heartfelt exclamation, Ni Yuanlu was born in the vast grassland in the north, and the surging feelings in his heart were born.

"Da Ming, it's no longer the weak Da Ming. Today's Ming Dynasty is enough to support two wars at the same time. This is not my arrogance, but these two small-scale wars are far from enough to empty the empire's war potential. On both the east and west lines, the empire will be fully supplied to support you to return these thousands of miles of mountains and rivers to the embrace of the Ming Dynasty! ”

Reading these words silently, Ni Yuanlu's heart swelled with warmth, and countless passions spontaneously rose: "Soldiers, look at these mountains and rivers, how beautiful." We didn't come here to fight for anyone's selfish interests, not for my Ni Yuanlu's worth and wealth. Today, here, we are fighting for the strength of our Ming Dynasty. For the sake of putting the frontier beacon fire on the shoulders of us, the imperial soldiers. The farther we advance the border, the more we can protect the people inside the Great Wall. This battle is a just and proud battle. I, Ni Yuanlu, am with the soldiers, for the sake of the Ming Dynasty! ”

"For Da Ming!"

"For Da Ming!"

……

Countless cheers resounded in the sky.

"For Da Ming!" Wu Wanying cheered along, her face red.

Only Ding Gaoliang, who was beside him, blindly followed and shouted, and continued to march silently. Compared with Wu Wanying, a new Ding, Ding Gaoliang is a military commander. He was originally a veteran of the border army, but unexpectedly, he never escaped from the army. It is said that every time the quartermaster is in arrears of military salaries, as long as this Ding Gaoliang is released, he can finally get some back.

It may sound a little dazed, but you only need to look at Ding Gaoliang's physique to understand why.

Relying on this body, Ding Gaoliang can not be bullied every time.

Of course, Ding Gaoliang didn't understand what Ni Yuanlu said. Although he didn't understand it, Ding Gaoliang still knew that people like Wu Wanying understood.

Because Wu Wanying knows how to read, he can read, and he even likes to teach Ding Gaoliang to read and read.

Such an encounter is a bit rare.

"Wan Ying, what kind of truth this senior official said, I don't understand." Wu Wanying scratched her head blankly.

On the contrary, the steamed bun on the side looked at it in a daze, as if he understood something.

"Mantou seems to understand?" Wu Wanying said in a low voice.

"Brother Wu also understands." Mantou sighed and said, "Mantou misses his father and mother." ”

Wu Wanying patted Ding Gaoliang's shoulder and said, "This is the reason, the truth I know, the truth I know, are all here." I don't know much about military strategy. I also understand some superficial truths. Our people have been ruined by the Tartars on the frontier, and this account is too common to be normal, and no one cares. Can ...... now Someone remembers, the court remembers, the court does not forget. And our army is dispatched for this account, and we must recalculate it fiercely. The lost territory is recovered, and the dignity of the empire is lost, and such dignity does not lie in the qualifications for promotion of officials, but in the honor and disgrace of our imperial people! ”

Wu Wanying, who has read many sage books, actually has a lot of words and phrases to put these great truths into this.

But they were useless, he didn't quote scriptures, saying that those who offend me and strong men will be punished even if they are far away, and he didn't say anything about the pride and grandeur of why the Huns were not destroyed and how they were at home. As a small person, a little soldier who has only learned some medical skills and some cultural knowledge, he can see lower, but he can also see more clearly and understandably.

His story on the steamed bun saw what this frontier was really like. It is also extremely fortunate that those meat eaters, those who are in high positions, still have a successor worthy of following.

"When I was fighting for the Ming Dynasty, I was actually often thinking about who we were fighting for. This Da Ming is whose Da Ming. In the past, when I was the son of an official eunuch, I felt that this Ming was our Ming Dynasty. Later, when I saw the thief breaking the city, I thought it was the world of the strong man. Later, Da Ming came back and changed his face. I found out that this is my Daming. We went out to fight for the Ming Dynasty, because ...... Everybody is fighting for us, the subjects of the Empire. This battle is not about the exploits of the princes and generals, but about the territory of thousands of miles, and no longer fighting for the Tatars! ”

On this day, when Wu Wanying was free, she silently wrote down this paragraph and recorded it in her diary.

Later generations, when looking back at the magnificent war history of the empire countless times, do not understand why so many people abandon their clothes and food to choose the most difficult path.

Why, they chose to join the army when everyone didn't understand.

If you say that some people don't have enough to eat, they have no choice but to go to the army to work hard. So, as the son of an official eunuch, he is used to seeing the prosperous life of Jinyi, but Wu Wanying still chooses the life of Jin Ge Iron Horse. In the end, with the disclosure of Wu Wanying's diary, there was finally an answer.

"They fought for their country, and their country fought for them as well!"

……

In the north of Shanxi, out of the Great Wall, it is located in the middle of Mongolia and Shanxi. Some of this area is grassland, and more is desert. The roads are deserted and difficult to navigate.

It rained a while ago, and the road was even more difficult.

But correspondingly, a heavy rain fell, and the mysterious fortress located in the Ordos tribe also had to stop working.

There are houses in the city, and they are not afraid of the rain. Unfortunately, when it rains, the soft grass is too hard to withstand the carts, and the iron ore from the outside cannot be transported, and the weapons inside the fortress cannot be transported in.

Fortunately, Jinong Exuanchen of the Ordos Department here has been in a good mood recently.

He was quite satisfied with the production in the fortress. Especially that Hongyi cannon, there were twelve of them.

Such a huge cannon stood on the ground, and the cannon body alone was even more majestic than the most fierce Mongolian man. Even those fierce Mongol men came to ten, and it was difficult to move the cannons. Such a huge cannon would have to be dragged by several green oxen.

There is no shortage of livestock on the grassland, and for Jinong Exuanchen, livestock is not worth mentioning.

He used to be most lacking in armaments, but after that surprise, they did.

He used to be most distressed about not having firearms, but now, the most powerful Hongyi cannon in firearms is also available.

He used to ......

What else has been?

"The most annoying thing is that these Manchurians are wreaking havoc on the proud Mongolian steppe. We had to succumb to such pain back then. Now, do you have to endure it? Never, never! He said in a loud voice.

Now, a wonderful opportunity has arisen.

Those arrogant and greedy wise people are coming.

These Ming people relied on the Qing people to defeat their Mongol warriors, and now, they are even trying to go north to regain the Hetao.

Damn, what are these Ming people thinking in their heads, they want to collect the Hetao! That is the foundation of the Ordos Department, the soil that has taken root for decades. If they let the Ordos Department lose the Hetao, it will be tantamount to cutting off their life.

Anger grows first, and Erechen is determined to teach this unkind neighbor a lesson.

As for having such self-confidence, it is really E's belief that the grassland will always be the grassland of Mongolian athletes.

For thousands of years, no matter how the Central Plains Empire struggled, it seemed that they would never escape a strange circle. Overhead, there will always be an unruly alien regime entrenched in the grasslands, until the Qing Dynasty settles it.

Leaving aside the things that were not discovered later, Eluchen naturally believed that no matter how powerful the Ming people were within the border walls, once they got out of the grassland, it would always be them who won the victory!

With such self-confidence, and the solution of the armament problem that had plagued him countless times, there was no reason why he could not believe that he could defeat the Akito.

"Defeat the Mingren, maybe that's when my Great Mongolia can finally break away from the Manchurians!" Thinking like this, Eluchen smiled unconsciously.

At this moment, another Umbuchulu of the Tumut tribe hurried over.

"The information has been confirmed!" Wen Buchulu said in a deep voice.

"Akito set foot on the grassland?" He smiled.

"That's right, I didn't expect them to really come!" Bayindai, the capital of the Naturalized City, had a very complicated expression: "How many soldiers and horses?" Where did it come from and where did it come from? Who is the main general and which troops? ”

"Look at the flag, it's the new First Army. The main general is Hu Dawei, this person turned out to be a side general, and he is a difficult person. However, although Hu Dawei is powerful, he is not the boss this time. Because...... Ni Yuanlu, the deputy envoy of the Privy Council of the Ming people, personally went out of the customs! Wen Buchu Huer said: "As for the number of soldiers and horses, the reconnaissance of horses is about 20,000 people, not counting the people. It is from Datong, and the goal is ...... It should be the Naturalization City. In addition, I also heard that there was already movement in Shaanxi. ”

"Shaanxi, it's okay for the time being. Sun Chuanting is a powerful one, but he hasn't come back in Sichuan. Moreover, no matter how powerful the Ming people are, is it possible that they can still send troops in two ways? He disagreed: "The main thing is still us." Since Ni Yuanlu has personally gone out of the customs, then of course this is the main force. 20,000 ...... 20,000 people dare to come to fight, I really don't know how high the arrogance of the Ming people is!
