Chapter 1089: The point will gather troops
readx;
After the will was announced, the Liaoguo Mansion was known up and down, and the reactions were inconsistent, and the guards were all excited, able to fight on the battlefield, make meritorious contributions, and come to the enterprising warriors, this is a lifelong pursuit, when the guards were elated, Yang Sichen, the county magistrate of Shanghai, placed someone to tell the guards, be low-key, and don't make such a jubilant atmosphere. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
It's not that I don't care about what other people think, it's what I care about is what these people in the Liaoguo Mansion think, Yang Sichen has been running errands by Wang Tong's side for a long time, both sides are familiar, and there are a lot of family members.
Through his wife and concubine, Yang Sichen naturally knew what the female dependents around Wang Tong thought, they were not happy to see Wang Tong go out to recruit Ge, and it was true that they were frightened.
Some official news, the female relatives of the Liaoguo Mansion also know, the 200,000 Chinese New Year's Eve army of the Korean Kuo Kou is so powerful, so powerful, they also know this.
The news from several places is put together, how to feel that this expedition is dangerous and Chinese New Year's Eve, how not to worry, and this time I see that the New Year is going through again, but my own man is going to the north, and I can't return for a few months and a half, no one can stand it, if the guards talk and laugh outside at this time in the excited Chinese New Year's Eve, this is adding fuel to the fire.
As Yang Sichen expected, after the will was announced, Wang Tong sent away the messenger who was responsible for the announcement, and returned to the mansion, but the wives and concubines all gathered together.
Wang Xia originally led Wang Zhong and Wang Lan who had just been able to walk around the house, but was reprimanded by Han Xia on Chinese New Year's Eve, Wang Xia was spoiled by Han Xia, rarely encountered such a stern treatment, at that time I was scared and cried, or Song Chanchan softly soothed and soothed the maids and took several children out.
Wang Tongwei sat in the middle, looking at the expressions and attitudes of his wives and concubines, and he was also a little helpless that he had already obtained the definite news before receiving the decree, thinking that he could look at it with a normal heart, but he didn't expect that after the decree was announced, Wang Tong himself also felt that he was excited, and the martial artists were really inseparable from the battlefield, and the peaceful life was really boring for them.
Thinking about himself in that life and then thinking about himself in this life, Wang Tong was also a little emotional, he was excited, but the wives and concubines were all sitting next to him with their heads down, Lu Ruomei and Zhang Hongying were still there wiping their tears endlessly, this atmosphere really made Wang Tong awkward.
"Why are you like this, master, it's not the first year I've gone out to fight in the army, and I didn't come back well, don't cry, don't cry, I scared the child." , In this case, Wang Tong didn't know what was good, and said a few words with a dry smile At this time, Song Chanchan naturally would not recognize the current situation and her own involvement, and she was afraid that she would become the public enemy of the inner house, she just approached Han Xia and whispered a few words.
Only then did Han Xia raise her head and said in a low voice: "When my husband goes to North Korea, he must think that his wife and children at home must take care of his body and cherish it. ”
Later, he couldn't control his emotions, his eyes turned red, and his voice also brought a crying tone, and the emotions of the ladies in the house were aroused, and the three who originally pretended to be calm also sobbed.
"Alas, we are, we garlic", this kind of pomp made Wang Tong unexpected, and he muttered a few sentences, but he didn't know what was good. .................., since the will has been announced, no matter how sad and reluctant the inner house of the Liao State Mansion is, Wang Tong will lead the troops to fight here, and the others are still preparing in Songjiang, but they are all sent to the Beijing Division.
His early will of the imperial court has been accurate, Xuanfu general soldier Li Rusong led the elite 4,000 has rushed to Liaozhen, to prepare for the war in North Korea, since Wang Tong has been appointed as the commander-in-chief, Xuanfu general soldier Li Rusong led this horse is also under the command of Wang Tong, counted as the vanguard army in the early stage of the dynasty.
Wang Tong's side and Chinese New Year's Eve's expectations are similar, bringing together all towns of the Huwei Army system, but in fact, not all of them are transferred, the regiments that were originally scattered everywhere have now been expanded to three regiments or even four regiments, Wang Tong's request is to transfer one regiment from each place, fifty percent veterans and fifty percent new recruits, led by the local forbidden army command.
That is to say, the original seven regiments of the forbidden army were all led by the original regimental commanders of each regiment this time, and the guerrillas of the Ma army and the guerrillas of the artillery team naturally accompanied them, but from Wang Tong's cronies Rong Malai, in fact, the scale was about the same as when the Eastern Expedition established the state.
However, Wang Tong was unable to lead his 10,000 troops to fight over the 200,000 Chinese New Year's Eve army, and in addition to the headquarters of the forbidden army, he also demanded that in addition to Gansu Town and Liaoning, each side of the remaining towns should send 1,500 elite soldiers, of which 3,000 additional cavalry should be sent from the same side on Chinese New Year's Eve, led by the adjutant general Ma, and Jizhen should send an additional 5,000 infantry, led by Yang Jin, the deputy general of Jizhen, and in addition, he also asked the imperial court to allow the Chinese New Year's Eve Army to recruit volunteers and brave people.
The forbidden army's horses and firearms are almost 18,000 people, and the total number of horses from each border town is almost 20,000, if you count the soldiers of the three towns of Liaoning, this is also about 110,000 Chinese New Year's Eve troops, which can be called the Chinese New Year's Eve scale of the horses used by Chinese New Year's Eve Ming in these years.
However, Wang Tong's will is also clear, the forbidden army and the horses sent out by the towns can be soldiers, and the three towns of Liaoning have almost 20,000 soldiers, and the rest can only be used as labor, or follow the Chinese New Year's Eve team to strengthen the momentum, if you go to the battlefield to fight with real swords and guns, I am afraid you will not be able to take it.
That is to say, of the 110,000 or so Chinese New Year's Eve army, the 60,000 that can really fight are about 60,000, so it is necessary to recruit the township brave regiment to train to make up for it.
Wang Tong's house knows this reality from top to bottom, the Chinese New Year's Eve family has no objections, and together with Wang Tong's letter, there are other letters from Wang Tong, on the letter, after the border town was changed to grass, the border generals everywhere basically kept the cavalry in their hands, but the infantry did not pay much attention, these elite infantry abandoned a pity, the place where they fell is likely to become a disaster, so they took this opportunity to digest them in the forbidden army, and later under the control of the forbidden army towns.
For this strategy, the Wanli Emperor and the cabinet assistant Wang Xijue are all rewarded as the best policy, and the result is not to spend too much money and energy, you can smoothly digest the power on the premises, and the best of both worlds is naturally the best policy.
In addition to the Rong Ma on the 6th, Wang Tong also deliberately said that Korea was near the sea, and the Japanese invaded from the sea, so it was necessary to use sailors.
This time, Wang Tong directly ordered the general, and Chen Fu, the commander of the Guangdong Naval Division, became a candidate, and there was no objection to this candidate, because above the water division, Chen Phosphorus was the first person recognized by the Chinese New Year's Eve and Ming, and there was always a proposal to set up a position for Chen Phosphorus to be in charge of the Chinese New Year's Eve and the southeast of the Ming Dynasty.
The imperial court's attention to Chen Phosphorus, on the one hand, is that there are more and more maritime trade and transportation in the Chinese New Year's Eve and Ming, and it is necessary to ensure the safety of the sea route, on the other hand, because Wang Tong is in the southeast, and Wang Tong has a fleet of Chinese New Year's Eve, so there must be such a balance, of course, the reason for the latter cannot be put on the table.
However, up and down, the affirmation of Chen Phosphorus is the same, originally there were still people waiting for Wang Tong to finish selecting 6 Shangrong horses, and then go up to clear Wang Tong's omissions, and then recommend Chen Phosphorus as the chief general of the water division, but I didn't expect that Wang Tong had already taken this into account.
There is no objection to this candidate, Wang Tong also deliberately made a twist and turn, and now Chen Phosphorus has put the Guangdong Naval Division very well, and has also built a lot of new ships, so this time Chen Phosphorus will lead the Guangdong Naval Division to the north, first dock in the area of Laizhou Mansion in Shandong, and then join forces in the right time.
It is also clear that the pirates at sea are mostly in the same stream as the Wukou on Chinese New Year's Eve, and the forces of the Wukou water army must be Chinese New Year's Eve, and in order to win safely, civilian ships should also be recruited to fight together, the so-called civilian ships, the Chinese New Year's Eve family knows what kind of fleet Wang Tong is, that is, his own fleet, the military generals of the Chinese New Year's Eve Ming, leading private soldiers is a tradition, Wang Tong is willing to bring his own fleet, this Chinese New Year's Eve family can not find out, but also boast, heart to the imperial court.
6 On Shanghai, there are almost 130,000 horses, and if you count the mobilized people, the number of 200,000 can be reached, and this number of Chinese New Year's Eve troops is really amazing, and how to pay for food, how to set up military stations, and even how to allocate silver taels from the household department have become problems for the Chinese New Year's Eve.
What makes the Chinese New Year's Eve ministers of the court and central government nervous is that they gave a strategy for this Wang Tong in the folds, for example, the forbidden army and local concubines transferred from various border towns need to spend the food and salary from the local needs, because today's border towns, Chinese New Year's Eve part of the military households have been converted into private households, and the food and salary that the imperial court needs to allocate has been reduced Chinese New Year's Eve Chinese New Year's Eve, but this reduction is still being calculated, and this time it is not necessary to let the border towns pay for themselves, and it will be the end of the year and the beginning of the year, and the household department will directly deduct from the food and salary allocated to the border towns. And then put it into the Chaorong right away.
As for the supply of grain and grass in various places, they were all contracted by the local merchants on Chinese New Year's Eve, and the imperial court allocated silver taels, and they gathered transportation capacity and grain and grass to set up military stations and supply along the way, and the Chinese New Year's Eve base camp on the banks of the Yalu River was also set up in accordance with this matter, and the rest of the expenses were earmarked with the silver collected by Songjiang and Tianjin Wei.
Originally, the cost of entering the Chinese New Year's Eve army, the household department and the imperial horse supervisor were already shouting, it was such a Chinese New Year's Eve battle, the treasury was afraid that it would go bankrupt, and there was no silver to spend elsewhere, but after Wang Tong's performance came up, the people of the household department and the imperial horse supervisor accounted for it, if they followed Wang Tong's advice, they could actually not dissipate the silver of the state treasury, and several items listed by Wang Tong even had surpluses, which was really speechless.
A military general, a nobleman, is actually more proficient in finance, taxation and logistics than civilian officials, the parties concerned feel that they have nothing to say, but the onlookers all think it is ridiculous, and some people are thoughtful.
