Five hundred and forty-two for the first time, Xiao Ruxun had doubts about the idea he insisted on
Chai Guozhu didn't finish everything, but Xiao Ruxun knew exactly what it meant.
Not to mention that you are not a civil servant, even if you are a civil servant, even if you are the chief minister of the cabinet, you may not be able to compete with the Shanxi merchant group at the moment. This interest group is too large and powerful. If you want to destroy them, it is better to just rob and kill them.
They have developed to this point and have become cancer cells. Like all cancer cells, normal medical methods cannot work. Special means must be used. To deal with such an indecent interest group that has become an invincible golden body, there is no other way except for violent actions to destroy physically.
But if you really want to do this, Xiao Ruxun will become a public enemy of the Ming Dynasty. From then on, the great power of Shenzhou will have no place to stand. If you want to survive, you will either run north or flee west, or simply pull up the banner to rebel. However, these are not long-term solutions and will not be successful. Therefore, this method was not considered by Xiao Ruxun from the beginning.
Other than that, what can I do?
"I have already remembered General Chai's words. Let's not talk about these Shanxi merchants for the time being. The northern barbarians should have no shortage of food if they have these foods. Why don't they return to the north and do such strange moves instead?"
Chai Guozhu looked confused and you were an admiral, you were a famous general, you asked me?
"I really can't figure it out."
Xiao Ruxun nodded helplessly, feeling that it was a bit of a mistake that he had not brought Yuan Huang. He thought it was just a simple war, but it actually involved such a deep inside story. Beilu also started to play deeply. He snatched the food and didn't leave. What would their purpose be?
There is a shortage of strategists! If you have a trusted strategist around you, you may not face the embarrassing situation like this now.
Xiao Ruxun didn't know much about Shanxi, Li Rusong and Chai Guozhu were not locals, nor did they understand it. The more important thing is that even if they understood it, they would not give advice to Xiao Ruxun like a qualified adviser.
A person's power is so insignificant. Even if he comes from the future, even if he can bring out an elite army and use future weapons, he still has no choice but to face such a situation. He is so lonely that he cannot find a second fellow traveler in the entire Chinese land of China.
For the first time, Xiao Ruxun had doubts about his insistence on the concept.
After Li Rusong dealt with all the prisoners, he came to Xiao Ruxun and saw Xiao Ruxun dazed at the food. After thinking about it carefully, he knew what Xiao Ruxun was in. He had no choice but to do so. He was arrogant, but he just used his arrogant name to make profits.
Does he really dare to oppose the interest groups?
Li Rusong is not stupid.
"Admiral, what should we do now? The Beiliu here has been dealt with, but more Beiliu are missing. What should we do?"
Xiao Ruxun took a deep breath and suppressed the depression in his heart.
"Send a sentry cavalry and walk westward. If you can see living refugees along the way, just like they ask if they see the whereabouts of the Beilu army. More than 30,000 Beilu army will not be able to evaporate on earth, and will definitely leave traces. As long as you know where they are going, you can know what their purpose is."
Li Rusong nodded: "No!"
Then Xiao Ruxun gave an order to Chai Guozhu.
"General Chai, please send someone to load all the grains into the trucks and separate them. We have enough supplies provided by the imperial court and there is no shortage of food. Now we treat these grains as disaster relief food. If you find refugees along the way, give them food to let them spend this winter. It can be considered that the wool comes from the sheep!"
Chai Guozhu looked at Xiao Ruxun and nodded in agreement.
This admiral is a rare person who cares about the world. Unfortunately, if he was born at this time, if he was born in the era of Taizu's decisive world or Chengzu's Jingnan Campaign, he would definitely be able to make greater contributions.
Xiao Jixin, she was born at the wrong time!
Afterwards, Xiao Ruxun led 20,000 cavalry and 10,000 infantry, gathered 30,000 troops and horses, leaving the remaining troops to guard Zijing Pass, and took his main force to the west to Zijing Pass and marched all the way to the boundary of Shanxi to the west. When he arrived in Lingqiu area, the whistle cavalry received important information.
A large number of Northern Lu cavalry turned south from this area more than ten days ago. I don’t know what they were doing, but before that, the Northern Lu army had divided its troops here, and the main force headed towards Zijing Pass, and tens of thousands of cavalry went south at that time.
This strange movement made Li Rusong and Chai Guozhu look at each other, unable to understand the truth inside, and Xiao Ruxun fell into deep thought.
After the Northern Territory broke through Pingxing Pass, the troops were divided into two groups. The main force attacked Pingxing Pass. Ten thousand cavalry divided their troops to move south. The information learned at present was that Wutai had fallen. A few days later, more than 30,000 Northern Territory cavalry left at night and then went south. The direction of the southward should undoubtedly be Wutai. Where is Wutai going south?
That's Taiyuan.
Now the general commander Wang Shiyang of the entire battle is located, and Taiyuan also gathers the main troops of Shanxi and Yulin Town, with more than 100,000 people. It is the general camp of the Ming army, with strong troops and strong defense. What are the intentions of these northern enemies? Could they really dare to face the face with more than 100,000 main forces of the Ming army?
Cavalry fights infantry not as easy as imagined. As long as infantry formed into a neat square formation and had courage, cavalry would be very troublesome. The main impression that cavalry was born to restrain infantry was from the Song Dynasty, especially in the late Song Dynasty, when fighting with the Jin people and the Mongols, they were often defeated like mountains of defeat.
The Mongols were not allowed to do so, but when dealing with the Jin people, the Song army had no fighting will at all, and they were extremely lacking in training. The large number of the Song army was because once there were refugees, they would recruit troops, but they were not trained. The quality of such an army can be imagined, and it was a mob that would collapse at one touch, and of course the defeat was like a mountain of defeat.
If you have the will to fight, the courage, the training, and form a military formation, there will be no horse that dares to directly hit the military formation. Horses are animals and they will also be afraid of fire and sharp things. The infantry phalanx is like a big hedgehog. Cavalry actually has no good way to attack the infantry phalanx, but the infantry phalanx cannot counterattack or pursue.
The border troops of the Ming army were not as cowardly as the Song army's imperial guards and the Xiang army. The northern barbarians were somewhat afraid. With a number of more than 100,000, how could the northern barbarians dare to challenge them head-on?
Wang Shiyang is not a person who is afraid of trouble. Li Rusong described Wang Shiyang as a person who has the courage and courage but has a bad mind. Such a person is unlikely to escape at the last minute. As long as Wang Shiyang remains unwavering as the head coach, more than 100,000 people gather together, he still has the courage.
How dare the 40,000 Northern Barbarians challenge the 100,000 Ming army head-on?
What is their purpose?
Xiao Ruxun didn't have time to think too much, because Taiyuan is really too important. If you are not afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of one. If Taiyuan suffers from disaster, the whole Shanxi will be unstable, which is related to the overall situation and cannot tolerate too much thinking.
Xiao Ruxun immediately ordered Chai Guozhu to bring 5,000 infantry and five red barbarian cannons to recover Pingxing Pass, block the pass where the northern barbarians fled north, and ordered Nurhaci to lead 5,000 Liaodong cavalry to help Yanmen Pass, and to inspire the Yanmen Pass defenders.
