Nine hundred and eighth chapter old

Since last year, the Chahar tribe and He Yusheng have officially entered a state of war. Neither side has issued any documents and announcements. Zhang Han felt it was necessary and he was unwilling to attract attention with great fanfare. Lin Danhan's side maintained the simple and vigorous style of the Mongols, and may not have any awareness of this at all. The two sides were back and forth in the intertwined Kalaqin territory. Small-scale battles have been born many times. According to the ideas of generals such as Yang Sisun, they simply used their existing forces to push them all over the way. Lin Danhan's digits were only about 80,000, and the remaining five divisions of the Eight Tok were only about 100,000. He Yusheng could dispatch 30,000 combat troops to cooperate with 50,000 baggage troops. The digits were about the same as the opponent, and the quality of the army was far worse.

But the Military Office must have rejected this plan of hard work.

The grasslands are not only military, but also economic and political.

With such a large territory, there may not be a few people who will be seen in a day when the horse runs. If the enemy does not fight in guerrilla wars, or retreats and hides, is it useless for the army to enter Chahar's territory?

If you can't surround people, it's like fishing without a net to hold a fish. All your efforts are in vain!

It is impossible to advance the way with the Fortress Army Station as it is in Tumot Mongolia.

Logistics are impossible, financial resources cannot be afforded, and manpower is even insufficient.

Without 300,000 civilians and tens of thousands of large cars, we have to rely on Jizhen and Xuanfu towns to go out to supply, so that such a huge plan can be completed. Not to mention that it is impossible to do it at this stage, even in a few years, it is completely impossible.

Yang Sisun was unwilling to give up. After hearing the rumors, he led military and political personnel and staff, under the protection of a regiment cavalry company, and followed the caravan to the city of Grejurgen.

"Bei Lu is really stupid." Yang Sisun commented: "If you have money, you have to build a big house for yourself, and you have to give some benefits to the herdsmen. They are good enough to get some money to build a Buddhist temple."

Wang Yiji said: "Don't let them hear your words, be careful to have a life with you."

Yang Sisun snorted and said, "I am not disrespectful to the Buddha. I burn incense when I enter the temple. I just can't understand how to use all my financial resources to build Buddhist temples and raise those lamas. Why?"

Wang Yiji smiled and said, "If they weren't so confused, could we get here?"

"That's true." Yang Sisun said: "Let's go to the supply point directly and go to see Oba Taiji after resting."

"I'm so familiar," said Wang Yiji: "We'll have a waste of time this time. At least we'll ask this Ji to roast a few whole sheep, otherwise we'll lose a lot."

Of course, Yang Sisun and others dared to enter the hinterland of the Beilu so rashly, and of course they were not completely unconfidence. The caravans had supply points in the Beilu tribe all the way. Each supply point was actually an intelligence point of the Military Information Department, and the convoy was all escorted by the logistics troops. If there was any abnormal situation, they would have been sent back by military personnel from the supply points at various places a few days ago, and the logistics troops had already been ordered to withdraw.

There are more than two and a half brigades in the city of Grejurgen. This is the most important supply point and the final site. Less than two days later, the end of the trade route and Yusheng. The Jurchens have a large number of tent areas there to store goods, and carts and horse teams keep transporting goods from here to Liaodong.

In history, the scale of smuggling by Shanxi merchants was once very large, but they exported from the Zhangjiakou area, from the Kalaqin tribes in Jizhen to the five Neikalkha tribes, and then to the Korqin tribes. Shanxi merchants only took a short distance, and more transportation tasks were borne by the Jurchens and Mongols themselves. Due to the low trade volume, the Mongols were also in short supply. During Yuan Chonghuan's administration, the Mongols tried to ask for food from the Ming Dynasty. Yuan Chonghuan traded with him. One of the important crimes later was the enemy of food and supplies.

At this time, due to the sufficient transportation capacity of He Yusheng, the food was coming continuously, which was also very beneficial to the entire left-wing Mongolia. At least when Yang Sisun entered the city, the Korqin herders and a small number of armored soldiers along the way respected them very much. Some old herders recognized Yang Sisun and knew that this general was the senior management of He Yusheng. They took off their felt hats and bowed to Yang Sisun from afar.

"The gun ball went to the Bahrain tribe."

After entering the supply point, the battalion commander Zhang Chunniu led people to greet him. The first thing he said was to tell the whereabouts of the gun ball.

Yang Sisun smiled and said, "Dog Duoer, he is very active."

Zhang Chunniu said: "The epaulette of the commander of the teacher is a Venus, who doesn't want it?"

The latest news is that the first gun regiment, two infantry regiments may be equipped with an artillery regiment to form a direct commander. For this new division command, of course, the ones that are sufficient to compete for the regiment-level command. Now Zhao Shiwu of the Sixth Regiment, Duoer of the First Regiment of the Gun Cavalry, and Yang Sisun of the Seventh Regiment are competing for the position of command of this division.

Wang Yikui, Li Laibin and Li Congye are well-deserved commanders of the division, and Zhou Yao is also very eye-catching, but his qualifications in the merchant regiment army are not good. It is too difficult to go directly from regiment command to division commander.

At the easternmost point of the front line, there are these three regiments at present. Yang Sisun is one of the most promising people to be promoted, and Duoer is his strongest rival.

Yang Sisun glanced at his old subordinate and cursed with a smile: "Do your own errands well, don't worry about other things. You are now a person who has brought thousands of baggage soldiers, just put more thoughtfulness into everything."

There are several battalions of the baggage soldiers, and only 5,000 or 6,000 people per regiment. Zhang Chunniu is not used to fighting on the battlefield, but the last battle to rescue Thirteen Mountains was very exciting. He has been promoted from brigade command to battalion command. It is estimated that the next step of the baggage soldiers will be no problem. The military department has tried to transfer this guy to the side of the battle soldiers many times, and considering weighing his personal wishes, he still kept Zhang Chunniu.

"Lu Dafu had a letter a while ago." Zhang Chunniu asked someone to serve tea and smiled at Yang Sisun: "They did a good job in Taiwan. After solving Yan Siqi's troops, the number of warships increased a lot. The situation in Taiwan below will be greatly improved. I heard that the Military Office was also very happy and had a much better impression of Taiwan."

One of the major events that happened recently was undoubtedly the change in Taiwan. Zhang Xuwen, Zheng Zhilong and Li Pingzhi and other elite soldiers went to Taiwan. As a result, they encountered the major event of Li Dan's death when they arrived in Taiwan. The Taiwan marching department decisively dealt with it, fighting against Yan Siqi, and ate Yan Siqi's manpower and territory in Taiwan. Since Li Guozhu and others stood on He Yusheng's side, this matter did not cause any dissatisfaction or rebound... Not only was Li Guozhu and Liu Xiang and others supported him, but also Zheng Guochang, a newly appointed military officer in Fujian, also stood on He Yusheng's side. When the court transferred Zheng Guochang to Fujian, he really didn't think that He Yusheng had a foundation in Taiwan. Zhang Han had already made plans in Taiwan a few years ago and made a move first. The court lost this situation and there was nothing to complain about.

In history, Zheng Zhilong killed Yan Siqi after Li Dan's death, and then received Li Dan's manpower and ships in Taiwan, and of course the treasury in the treasury. His strength suddenly soared, and then defeated the Fujian Navy. He was uncontrollable on the coast of Fujian and Zhejiang, and gradually expanded into a maritime hero in the south. He Yusheng's strength at this time was much stronger than Zheng Zhilong in history. With this starting point, the future development will definitely be much faster than before. The military commanders and military leaders who received the news were extremely happy, and their criticism of Chang Wei was finally much smaller... Taiwan has a map in the military commanders, so

It is such a large island, and there are only some natives on the island. They cannot arrive without boats. The Ming Dynasty has never sent officers and soldiers to garrison, nor has it established a prefecture. Now there are thousands of Heyusheng on the island, and more than 10,000 Han people have settled on the island. Many people regard Taiwan as a way of retreat. Everyone follows Zhang Han and has embarked on another road. If one day the Ming Dynasty court announces that Heyusheng is a traitor and rebels the party and conscripts a large army to attack, if things are inconsistent, Taiwan will really lose a way of retreat. At least the foundation there is not afraid of the court, nor any other forces under the world.

Thinking about this, it seems worth spending some money in Taiwan, and the criticism has suddenly decreased a lot.

Yang Sisun sat down and drank tea comfortably, saying, "The person I brought back, Li Shouxin, suddenly became a commander of the group, and now he is the only one in the town. Sun Yao is in charge of the General Staff Office and Tang Wangzong's artillery commander. You and Lu Dafu are also middle-level. Let's work hard together."

Zhang Chunniu nodded slightly and said, "The grace of commanders and supporters will never be forgotten."

Yang Sisun smiled and scolded: "What Yongzhi will never forget is the kindness we adults have to us. You can say less in the future if this happens."

Zhang Chunniu said a little embarrassedly: "The adult is a god-like figure in his heart. How dare he get involved with him? The subordinates are grateful to you for commanding, and they will repay you with death."

Wang Yiji sat aside and interrupted: "Chunniu is becoming more and more able to speak. He is strange to keep his troops in the baggage. I heard that he still wants to go to the Military and Political Department. I think he is suitable for doing these things."

Zhang Chunniu smiled but said nothing. He had such ability. He could make them happy when talking to these Shangguans. After the Battle of Thirteen Mountains, everyone praised him as a general. Only Zhang Chunniu knew how nervous he was at that time. The sharp bow and arrow of the Donglu impressed him very deeply, but after the report, it seemed that the impact was very small. The Battle of Thirteen Mountains, the Battle of Mountain Infantry, and the Battle of Ma Wu and other cavalry. A series of experiences showed that the Donglu was a very powerful opponent, but judging from the feedback Zhang Chunniu received, the military did not agree with this. This attitude shows that the Shang army was also a bit too proud and regarded opponents like the Donglu as the Northern Lu and too contemptuous of them.

In view of this, Zhang Chunniu's idea of ​​changing to a civilian position or being transferred to the Western Front has become stronger. It feels like a big battle will break out at any time, and it will definitely be a very difficult battle.

"I will try my best for Chunniu." Yang Sisun responded casually. The regiment-level command not only commanded 3,000 people, but also represented his status and connections in the army. Yang Sisun's qualifications were the same as Li Laibin and others. He had many old friends in the army, so he could say hello. It was difficult for Zhang Chunniu to transfer to civil service. It was easier to think that it was easier on the Western Front.
