As soon as Gao Jianguo's words fell, the conference room suddenly became lively, and everyone raised their hands. Gao Jianguo looked at the eager looks, and scolded with a smile: "Look at your anxious bears, okay, I won't name names, start with the victory of the power, and take turns to speak." ”

Qiang Quansheng immediately stood up and asked with a smile: "Commander, I have taken a brief look at this plan, I think there seems to be nothing to do with our Eastern Military Region next year." I just want to ask about the combat mission of our Eastern Military District next year. ”

Li Ming nodded and said: "The second phase of the campaign originally planned by the Military Commission to go north may be changed next year, and the combat mission of the Western Military Region will remain unchanged. The Eastern Military Region's task of sweeping the ** grassland west of the Great Khing'an Mountains will be postponed for one year, and your Eastern Military Region has other arrangements, and you must be prepared when you go back, and next year we will transfer a group of cavalry units from the Eastern Military Region, and you will be the commander of this cavalry unit. ”

As soon as Qiang Quansheng heard this, he had a bottom in his heart, and sat down with a smile on his face, he knew that next year, the Eastern Military Region would definitely participate in the operation of this military plan.

When the others heard this, they were all anxious, and everyone took turns to stand up and speak, all of them asking whether their unit would have a combat mission, but as for the suggestions and ideas, there was not a single suggestion or idea. Gao Jianguo slapped the table angrily, and said angrily: "I said that you are not finished, now is the time to plan the discussion, don't talk about those useless things, from now on, everyone is only allowed to make suggestions, don't ask questions anymore." ”

Everyone saw that Gao Jianguo was angry, and then they became honest. Li Ming saw everyone's unwillingness on their faces, so he smiled and said, "Everyone has seen it too." This is a very big plan, and it is the largest since the establishment of our Military Commission, so you can rest assured. The vast majority of the troops will participate in this operation, but those who do not have a combat mission should not have any ideas, after all, our territory is so big, we can't keep our family behind. ”

The meeting of the Military Council lasted for two days, and then the heads of the various units also went back. The Far Eastern Military Council also went into action, and almost all the troops were mobilized. Actively prepare for war.

The drought in the northern provinces of the Ming Dynasty in the tenth year of Chongzhen made the exiled army in various places at a low ebb become active again. Including Li Zicheng, the king of Chuang, Zhang Xianzhong, the eight kings, Cao Cao, Luo Rucai, Ge Li Yanhe Yilong, Lao Hui Ma Shouying and other veteran leaders of the exile army. They all entered the Central Plains and pulled the flag again. There are also a large number of emerging exile armies that have also begun to rise up and respond with troops.

Countless displaced people who were forced to live have joined the various displaced people's armed forces. The armed forces of the displaced people engulfed more than one million displaced people, attacking cities and plundering land in the north of the Ming Dynasty. The entire Central Plains was in chaos.

Faced with the situation of erosion in the Central Plains. Chongzhen again ordered Hong Chengchou to be the prime minister of the five provinces, and organized the Ming army to carry out a large-scale encirclement and suppression of the displaced people in the Central Plains. In order to enhance the combat strength of the Ming army, it was also prepared to mobilize the border troops of Liaodong, Xuanfu, Datong, Yansui, Ningxia, Gansu, Jizhou, Shanxi, and Guyuan border towns to the Central Plains in the south.

But before the border army of the nine sides was opened, the Ming Xuanfu, Jizhou and Liaodong were everywhere, and there were urgent reports that the Tartars of the Chahar Department were moving south to Koubian, and the scale was larger than in previous years. The Mongol cavalry gathered north of the Great Wall numbered more than 100,000.

This frightened Chongzhen and the Ming courtiers. Although the troubles of the displaced army in the Central Plains made them anxious, but compared with the Mongolian Tatars going south to Koubian, it must not be the same, if this allowed the Tartars to break through Xuanfu and Jizhou, then the Mongolian iron cavalry could kill all the way to the city of Beijing.

The Ming army guarding the border faced the overwhelming Mongolian iron cavalry, and was frightened at that time, and lit the wolf smoke cannon one after another.

Chongzhen hurriedly transferred troops north to protect the Beijing division, and sent an order to Shandong, Shanxi, Datong, and Baoding to quickly select Rui to help, and the general troops of Guan, Ning, Ji, and Mi also led the army to help.

In fact, the Mongolian cavalry heading south was composed of several Mongolian cavalry divisions and dozens of Mongolian militia brigades led by Wang Yaowu, commander of the Far Eastern and Western Military Region. After the main elite of the Chahar Department was wiped out by the Far East, two Mongolian cavalry divisions and a large number of Mongolian herdsmen squadrons of the Far Eastern and Western Military Districts have been nomadic near Xilin Gol.

As soon as the military meeting of the Central Military Commission ended, Wang Yaowu of the Western Military Region mobilized a large number of reserve cavalry brigades, and then led two main cavalry divisions and dozens of militia brigades to the west of the Xilin Gol grassland.

At this time, Chongzhen still had the heart to manage the exile army in the Central Plains, so he could only mobilize elites to hold the important land of Gyeonggi. Originally, Hong Chengchou, the prime minister of the five provinces, had no money and no food, and at this time, the northern Mongolian iron cavalry Koubian, not to mention the border army, even the elites of Shandong, Shanxi, and Datong were all withdrawn.

He could only gather the officers and troops from Shaanxi, Jin, Shandong, Henan, Sichuan, and Huguang, and attack in all directions, in an attempt to annihilate all the displaced people's armed forces in the Central Plains in one fell swoop. But the elite Ming troops in various places have been withdrawn, and the border army of the Nine Border Military Town cannot go south, and the remaining Ming army has low combat effectiveness, and it will collapse immediately when it encounters the displaced army, but the troubled places are more and more powerful than one another, making the displaced army more and more courageous, and the situation in the north of the Ming Dynasty has gradually become more and more out of control.

More than 10,000 members of the Shanxi guerrilla detachment have been training here for more than two months in the Luliangshan base area. Among them, there are more than 5,000 regular troops and more than 10,000 militia troops. After more than two months of construction, all work in the base area is on the right track.

The main task is to train the troops, and several hundred backbone cadres from various units in the Far East have already gone down to the units one after another to conduct professional and systematic training for the Shanxi guerrilla detachment.

Because the requirements for the Shanxi guerrilla detachment were not high, and the training standards were quite different from those of the regular troops in the Far East, the combat effectiveness of the Shanxi guerrilla detachment was markedly improved, although it had only been trained for two months. Coupled with the weapons and equipment provided to them by the Far East, there is still no problem in dealing with the officers and troops in various parts of the Ming Dynasty.

In addition, the more than 10,000 militiamen in the base area were also carefully selected to stay. In order to improve their military quality, Wang Haiyang asked the backbone non-commissioned officers of various units of the Shanxi Displaced Folk Detachment to take turns to go to various militia squadrons to conduct them with necessary basic military training.

Their main task was to work and train at the same time, and they were also an important supplement to the Shanxi guerrilla detachment in the future. The working groups of the Nationalities Affairs Committee will also gradually train them, and in the future, some of them will become grassroots management cadres in the base areas in various localities.
