Chapter 1361 Peasants and Soldiers
"This time I go to Chahar's army, thank you for your help." Cheng Benzhi was about to set off. Man Gui had already gone to Jinzhou. Zhao led the sect to the front, and there were also generals of the generals of the ranks of deputy generals who were also heading forward.
The Jianlu had just retreated, so the generals were not worried that they would attack again, and they all headed straight forward happily.
It is expected that Jinzhou Qiantun and other places can be repaired in about two or three months, and at least garrison troops can be defended.
Yuan Chonghuan also planned to place cannons on these castles, intending to ask Sun Yuanhua to come back to help. If everything goes well, there is no need to worry about Jianlu coming to attack next year.
"Lin Danhan is definitely not reliable." Zu Dashou said casually: "But it's better to have this aid. At least you must appease the Mongolian tribes. You can't ask them to stick all to the Jurchens."
Cheng Benzhi frowned and said, "Is Zushuai worried that the Jurchens would take a detour?"
Zu Dashou said: "If it weren't for me, I would definitely think about detours. The Jurchens have been struggling on the grassland two years ago. Mangurtai, Huang Taiji, Dai Shan and others led their troops to Korqin many times, and they would never really help their allies. The Korqin people have been defeated by them. If they defeated the Khalkhas and Chahar people, what's the difficulty of detouring Ji Town? Ji Town is not our western Liaoning, but the place will be locked down with one close. Ji Town's walls are thousands of
There were few soldiers and horses in the country, and there were no strong generals and soldiers. There were cracks everywhere in a thousand miles, and these Jianli might not know in detail. But Cheng Zanhua knew that the old slave often entered Beijing from Jizhen in the middle of the Wanli period, and the local military abolished the situation was seen. Even if he didn't want to break through Jizhen and get a Mongolian division to help him, it would definitely be the most important thing. To be honest, the Northern and Eastern empires joining forces is the most worrying thing!"
Cheng Ben looked solemn and said, "The Yuan Junmen also has such concerns, so we are. So the best way is to join the Northern Barbarians first, and they cannot fight, so they can only make peace."
Zu Dashou disagreed. He paid attention to being straightforward when doing things, and his in-laws also focused on potential and family background. Of course, it was also true for making friends. I could stab you with a sword, and you could stab me with a knife, but in this way, he could become friends because they would be worried about each other. If they were powerful figures, they could help each other.
If one side is strong and one side is weak, then you can only rely on the other side, and there is no other way to choose from.
Now to be fair, the Beilu and the Ming Dynasty are both weak, and neither side can do anything to each other. According to the Ming Dynasty's idea, the two weak should be one strong and join forces with each other.
But what would the Mongolians think? These slutty gangs have always liked to obey the strong and bully the weak.
The Ming Dynasty and the Later Jin Dynasty, who is stronger and weaker, are still not clear about the Tartars. Although the Ming Dynasty has repeatedly defeated wars, its closing is majestic and the Jurchens cannot fight in, so they can only do whatever they want in Liaodong.
The Ming Dynasty was in a vast territory of thousands of miles and hundreds of millions of people. Once it was really cheered up, it would be possible to mobilize the new officials and rectify the camp, and hundreds of thousands of strong soldiers would come out.
Just like during the reign of Emperor Yingzong, Yexian Taishi first bought dumplings from 50,000 Ming cavalry, killed Duke Zhu Yong, and defeated Ming Jing camp 300,000, and captured the Ming Emperor.
But the Ming Dynasty quickly established a new emperor and summoned a large army. Yesen suffered a great loss under the city of Beijing, and the losses were reduced. The change of strength and weakness was so dazzling.
The same was true when Altan Khan surrounded the capital twice, but after Longqing began to cheer up, the power of the nine borders of the Ming Dynasty increased greatly. The Mongolian tribes that fought against each border town could not raise their heads. Altan had no choice but to be named King Shunyi. From then on, the Tumote tribes no longer became enemies with the Ming Dynasty.
This is the foundation of a great country!
Now the Mongolian tribes are willing to cooperate with the Ming Dynasty, and at least they no longer take the initiative to attack. One is that they are restrained by the Jurchens and have no power to go south. The other is that they are afraid of choosing between the Jurchens and the Ming Dynasty. After all, no one knows which side will be the final winner.
Before the new major contradictions, the old border troubles magically subsided.
Now the Ming Dynasty wants to recruit the Northern Liberation troops and make them work. In Zu Dashou's opinion, it is just a plan with the tiger and wolf. There was no way to control it. It is okay to calm it down and provoke it again. The enemy's enemy may not be an allies, and it is likely to strike back behind you. For example, Wang Huazhen is already laughing, and many people in the court are also quite disgusted with the Northern Liberation. Yuan Chonghuan's move now may lead to a serious rebound.
However, Zu Dashou would never say much about this matter. He said a few words just now, so of course it is even more impossible to continue.
"Take care about this trip." Zu Dashou said: "I am afraid that I will walk thousands of miles back and forth, so where are you planning to go?"
"From the west side of Dafu Castle, cross the Xiaoling River, and go straight north across the Daling River. There is Korqin there, and to the southwest it is Bahrain."
"There are many enemy cavalry in Guangning." Zu Dashou said: "Last year, Zhao Shuai suffered a loss there, so Mr. Cheng should be more careful."
Cheng Benzhi smiled indifferently and said, "I don't think I have to worry too much about safety issues."
Liao Town often scatters around the wall, but they never dared to go deeper. However, Wang Huazhen still had communication with various Mongolian tribes back then. It was only two or three years since then, and the old friendship was still there.
This time, I am also on a mission, so there is no need to worry too much about security issues.
"I don't know what's there on the other side of Shisan Mountain." Zu Dashou's eyes flashed and he said, "If you use that group training well, it will also be a great help."
"As long as they are more at ease, they don't cause trouble."
Zu Dashou was silent when he heard this. He was still very concerned about this group training. As a local general in Ningyuan, he was not far from the people in Guangning. He was all from Liao people. If the group training was fought and received training, he would definitely be a powerful army.
The important thing is that there are still tens of thousands of people on the mountain. There are not many Liao people still alive, especially those who stay in the western Liaoning settlement have been almost completely divided by various hexagrams.
According to what Zu Dashou thought at this time, if he could connect the Thirteen Mountains, adapt his army, and recruit his strong men to farm, it would certainly be of great benefit to the development of the Zu family.
As for the rumored strong soldiers and horses in Thirteen Mountains, Zu Dashou didn't care much about it.
No matter what, it is just a team training. How powerful can a leader be? I heard that there is a Hutchison in it. If this is the case, you need to be cautious. Zu Dashou is still quite afraid of Hutchison. He is rich and soldiers, which is comparable to an ordinary merchant or local team training. Especially Zhang Han, who has already covered Altan Khan's old land and recovered Hetao. Fortunately, his main force is in Xuanda, thousands of miles away from Liaodong, and there are countless hostile Mongolian tribes in the middle. There are only his idle chess and pieces in western Liaoning, and there should not be too many places to be careful about.
"Don't worry, Zushou." Seeing that Zu Dashou seemed to be unwilling to accept it, Cheng Benzhi certainly understood the military leader's idea.
However, it is Yuan Chonghuan's intention to limit the Thirteen Mountains, and he is determined and unmoved. The main reason is that he is afraid of Hutchison. Yuan Chonghuan is unwilling to have different forces under his command. Especially after the closing of the door, Yuan Chonghuan was deeply afraid of Hutchison's financial resources and ability to act. Hutchison was an existence that Yuan Chonghuan could not understand and control. Its development and growth was completely different from all the forces of the Ming Dynasty before, and it was completely different from the military and political farming methods that people remembered. Instead, he made a fortune with Shang and then took Shang as the country.
Yuan Chonghuan could not understand, nor could he understand at all. Because of his fear and precautions against Hutchison and Zhang Han, he was also quite vigilant about the group training armed forces on the Thirteen Mountains.
I would rather give it up and even let the enemy eliminate it than get it to my own side, and I can't digest it, and I can't get rid of it.
"The military master had officially submitted a memorial the day before yesterday." Cheng Benzhi said casually: "There are a few words inside, let me listen to Zushuai on the lower back."
"Food grain thousands of miles away, and the soldiers are hungry. When they advance, they are in the enemy. When they retreat, they are inclusive. The military will be in charge of farming. The military will be in a state of justice. I want to ask for another farming planting, but I am afraid that there will be no money or food to respond to my request. I ask for a reduction of 125,000 stones of fortune of more than 400,000 yuan per year. According to the current price, the amount of 8 qian per stone is worth 100,000 taels of silver is accrued. Then I will go to Ningyuan within the month to buy cattle and buy filth and paste. The minister Zhao Shujiao and others are all well versed in military tactics and circulate the farming situation. If the 60,000 of these soldiers are combined, who knows that they are all farmers. People say that the soldiers can be farmers. Is it true that those who cannot be farmers must not be soldiers. They must be connected with each other. The farming and harvesting do not have to be officials or private, and only the land has no profit. People have surplus food, and the food for more than three years a year.
After the life of the people, we can have someone else. People are not enough for me to have the enemy. The ministers who should supervise the king are very careful, but the country's use is scarce, and they have been in great importance to this day. They have been stationed in Liao to save Liao's money. In short, Zhao led the tutors to set up soldiers outside the pass for a year, and the soldiers and civilians have their grievances. To this day, there are many people who go to the barracks, and the soldiers and civilians suffer from fatigue and the people suffer from career losses. If you drive them all to the world (revolution) and work, you will be punished. I know that the enemy is not interested in killing them, and I will never come again. However, the military strategy has no dependence on them, and I dare not dare to be afraid of the enemy for a day. After repeated plans, I will still use the Liao people near the land to let hundreds of thousands of creatures be redeemed, and a civil servant Dong is appointed to collect rent as usual to serve military wages. Then all the relationships are in harmony with each other... "
Zu Dashou is not uninformed in literature. At least this simple memorial sounds not too difficult. At the end of his hearing, Zu Dashou laughed loudly and shook his head and said, "What the military master said is very wonderful. As the saying goes, as the saying goes, those who cannot be a farmer must not be a soldier. It's wonderful, wonderful!"
"Yeah." Cheng Ben said straight: "Originally, the defense line was set up in Ningjin, and the Liao people were used as the Liao soldiers. The Liao people must be used to restore Liao. These words were all said by the military masters and adopted by Sun Ge's troops."
"That's true." Zu Dashou smiled and said, "If it weren't for this, I wouldn't respect the military masters so much."
"The matter of restoring the city is also important to the Zushou." Cheng Ben said straight: "There is a lot of noise in the construction of the city this spring, and the construction of the city will be very important. The artillery will not be prepared for the time being. There are many castles in Ning and Jin areas and many farmlands. If the cavalry attacks again, they must fight with them with their hearts. Otherwise, there will be heavy losses again. I am afraid that the saying of Chuangguan and abandoning Ningyuan Jinzhou will have the upper hand, and there will be big trouble at that time."
