By midsummer, the Beijing army established its authority, extended its authority, and promoted its authority, and revitalized its authority. The four camps had a total of more than 40,000 troops. Under the leadership of Zhongyi Bo and the current Zhongyi Marquis Zhao Wu, the current Zhongyi Marquis, it had been stationed in Shanhaiguan for nearly half a year.
Shanhaiguan, which was once the last part of the Liaodong defense line, has long been the front line of war.
In the past six months, the war has never stopped under this majestic city, until Guangning, and above this narrow and long Liaodong Corridor.
According to Li Xiu's military orders to Shanhaiguan, while defending the mountains and seas, the Liao bandits must be in peace.
Therefore, during the period when the Beijing army was stationed in Shanhaiguan,
The big and small battles never stopped.
Of course, war is just one part of the overall strategy.
From Shanhaiguan, to Dongjiang, and Denglai, the most commonly used methods in Liao Town are actually sought and won over.
After all, it is not easy for the Liaodong military and civilians to be cut off after hundreds of years of grace.
The foundation of oppression with frontal troops, the economic and military blockade was weakened, and the enemy's provocation and turmoil behind the enemy was the overall strategy of Li Xiu to oppress Liao Town and the Later Jin Dynasty.
Of course, as far as Shanhaiguan is concerned, the role of military is far greater than anything else.
The strategic role of the Liaozhen rebellion and Shanhaiguan is undoubtedly a sharp improvement.
In the past, Shanhaiguan's highest military position was just a general, and its jurisdiction was limited to Shanhaiguan. Now, Zhao Wu commanded tens of thousands of troops to serve as the commander of Shanhaiguan. His jurisdiction also included the entire Shanhaiguan area and even many cities behind him into the Shanhaiguan defense line.
Of course, the focus is still Shanhaiguan. The reason why the power of Shanhai General was expanded to become the commander of the army was because the buffer zone before Shanhaiguan was lost.
Although Shanhaiguan is majestic and steep, if there is someone who is ill-hearted and makes trouble in the rear, if you are not careful, you will have a big mess.
For this reason, Li Xiucai deliberately expanded the power of Shanhaiguan and included the prefectures and counties in the rear area into the jurisdiction of Shanhaiguan in case of accidents.
In this way, the Guanningjin defense line has completely become history, and the important towns in mountains and seas have also completely stepped onto the stage of history.
The one who also stepped onto the stage of history is the important town of Denglai.
Unlike Shanhaiguan's tendency toward strategic defense, Denglai Town has been given a strategic offensive mission since its inception.
The four words of navy and land battle are enough to illustrate the nature of Denglai Town.
Like the former Jingjun Jizhen, Denglai was also in a state of chaos. Although Denglai had a glorious time, with Yuan Keli's resignation, the court's strategic direction completely turned to Liaozhen, and Denglai was completely desolate.
Now, with the strong support of Li Xiu, Denglai has also gradually restored its previous glory.
Hundreds of naval warships lined up across the Bohai Sea and looked north to Liaodong. While strangling the throat of the fate of the Dongjiang River, they were also like a sharp blade, intimidating Liao Town and the hinterland of the Later Jin Dynasty.
After all, Denglai is different from the court's support for Dongjiang at the time. Whether it is Li Xiu or the court officials, they are worried that the situation will not be lost. Therefore, although Dongjiang is strong, its strength is also limited.
Nowadays, court officials may still have concerns, but for Li Xiu, Denglai undoubtedly received his strong support.
The military officers, soldiers, food, grass, silver, and even shipwrecks were all kept in Dengzhou. Their treatment made Mao Wenlong in Dongjiang so jealous that his saliva was about to fall out.
But obviously, with Denglai, the strategic importance of Dongjiang will undoubtedly plummet.
Moreover, the most important thing is that the establishment of Denglai Town directly stifles the lifeline of Dongjiang.
Once upon a time, the reason why Dongjiang Town was established was entirely due to Yuan Keli's support. With Yuan Keli's resignation, Dongjiang Town also declined rapidly. The reason why it could survive was entirely due to some smuggling activities done by Mao Wenlong.
The smuggling channels are nothing more than smuggling from the Ming Dynasty to Liaodong.
Now, Denglai Town is established and the navy is lined up across the Bohai Sea, located behind Dongjiang, which undoubtedly directly cut off this lifeline that can make Dongjiang self-reliant.
For Dongjiang Town, what it means without self-reliance is obviously very clear.
One person supports a town, and has been working hard in Liaodong for so many years. Mao Wenlong naturally has no shortage of strategic vision.
In Mao Wenlong's view, in the current situation, Liao Town of Later Jin is the grasshopper in the autumn, and it will not be long before it will be jumping.
No matter how stupid he is, he will not have the lessons of Liao Town. Even though he knows that it is a dead end, he still falls in!
On the Pi Island, the armor and helmets are mottled, the battle robe is dancing, Mao Wenlong is covered in white, and the meaning of wind and frost is fully revealed.
At this moment, looking at the warships on the dock full of supplies, Mao Wenlong sighed and laughed at himself: "I have been fighting for most of my life and finally saved Dongjiang's foundation. Now, I can't save it!"
This statement was made. All the generals of Dongjiang were silent. The Denglai navy was wandering in the Bohai Sea. The ban on seas was issued. Those who did not hold the Denglai naval flag and went out to sea were considered as collusion with the enemy! They would be killed without mercy!
In just one or two months, the once busy boats and boats were fully loaded on the huge Bohai Sea, and it also completely disappeared.
The smuggling network that Dongjiang has worked hard to build a path of self-reliance, which has been completely strangled from the source.
One hand is big stick, the other hand is sweet date.
These warships loaded with supplies were undoubtedly the sweet dates given by the Duke of Qin.
And they have no choice whether to eat or not, or they have no choice...
"Okay, people have to bow their heads under the eaves. Let's just obey the imperial military orders honestly!"
Mao Wenlong seemed to have seen it openly and pretended to be free and easy: "Recently, the Liao thieves and Jiannu have suffered disasters. They cannot defeat Shanhaiguan. They can move, that is, only Mongolia and North Korea are there!"
"Our Qin Gong gave the order. As long as the Liao thief Jiannu moved, we have to take out their retreat!"
"Go and prepare, and you can get a good match. This imperial grain is not delicious..."
Whether the imperial grain is delicious is a false proposition.
For today's Liao Town, the imperial grain that was once sent with a wave of hand has long become an unreachable dream.
From ancient times to the present, there are only a few upper-level rulers who make decisions, but decisions do not mean everything.
After all, most of the time when making decisions, the soldiers at the bottom are blind and follow the people in power.
But if the consequences of this decision cannot satisfy the overall interests, the backlash brought by the decision will appear.
The same is true in Liao Town today.
How many soldiers from the Liao Town at the bottom really knew about the decision to rebel against the Ming Dynasty?
As we all know, no one can change it.
But if a rebellion can bring greater benefits to the soldiers of Liaozhen, naturally, few people will care about the fact that rebellion is.
But now, after the rebellion, with the current situation of Liao Town, it is obvious that not only did not bring enough benefits to the Liao Town soldiers and generals, but it can even be said that it greatly harmed its own interests.
As a result, the backlash of decision-making naturally emerged.
Not to mention, under this strategic blockade, the military towns arranged by Li Xiu spared no effort to sow and win over them.
The morale of the army is restless and the tide is rolling!
This is the true portrayal of Liao Town today!
Liao Town...
Where to go?
Where is the future?
At the top of Guangning City, Yuan Chonghuan looked at the towering towering mountain, like a mountain, Shanhaiguan, which isolated Liaodong and the Central Plains, and was silent for a long time...
