In order to be able to buy a newspaper for ten cents a copy, there were hundreds of frictions and conflicts in the capital. Everyone wanted to be the first to witness the actual content of the legendary "Liaodong Victory".
How many years have passed, and King Wang has never won a battle. Although the Japanese army fought on behalf of the Japanese army this time, as long as the dog Tatars can be beaten black and blue, the people will be happy.
Under the special instructions of a certain prince, Jin Yiwei took on the important task of escorting newspapers for the first time, mainly because he was afraid that they would be robbed by "educated gangsters" before they could be delivered to annual users.
Things like "hand over the newspaper" and "spare your life" have not happened before, especially since the "Jingshi Daily" will be printed in red letters for the first time, which will be more eye-catching than before.
Many petty people also took the opportunity to criticize the imperial court and a certain prince for hiring Japanese soldiers to conquer the Eastern captives. This move harmed the court's face, and the power of the Ming Dynasty was gone. There was still a feud between the Ming Dynasty and the Japanese country.
But these buzzing "flies" were quickly drowned out by the spit of a group of supporters around them. As long as Liaodong could win the war, no one cared whether it was Master Wang.
How much did you receive from "Liao Pay" before?
It's almost to the point where Min is desperate.
Then what?
The battle situation outside the pass is really a complete defeat!
Only Jinzhou in the northernmost part is still struggling, and the vast area north of Jinzhou has been lost.
Some people also pointed out that the court's two hundred taels of dog Tatars were overpriced, and their remarks were scolded by the people around them.
The imperial court also increased the reward amount for the royal masters outside the pass, but how much did they gain?
Not to mention three thousand, is there one thousand?
I'm afraid you don't even have five hundred, right?
Millions of taels of silver are consumed every year. What is the use of raising this group of losers?
Some people immediately called on the imperial court to hire Japanese troops on a large scale and gradually eliminate the royal divisions outside the pass.
The Japanese army only had one confrontation with the Tatars, and they annihilated three thousand people in one fell swoop. They also recaptured the two cities of Lushun, with great results.
If 100,000 or even 200,000 Japanese troops landed in Liaodong, wouldn't it be the end of the Dog Tatars?
For this proposal, there were many supporters in the court, and the reasons were the same.
Mercenaries have powerful combat capabilities and are not expensive. They seem to be a very good deal.
But at the earliest, we have to wait until the Japanese troops withdraw and then discuss matters for next year.
With such successful cases this year, it will not be too difficult to continue cooperation next year.
"Your Highness! Good news~! Good news..."
"……oh?"
Could it be that the Japanese army killed another three thousand braids?
Isn’t this too awesome?
If I had known it was so good at beating, I might as well have hired a hundred thousand people, and I could beat the Royal Chicken to the point where there were not even a few feathers left in one go!
Well……
What a great news!
After the Japanese army recaptured Lushun, they quickly headed north after taking a short rest, and recaptured Shuotuo's home base - Fuzhou City in one fell swoop.
In order to add glory to the Japanese army, these pigtails are too coordinated, right?
Why is it that when I get to Master Wang, I hit my head like a big bag? ? ?
Presumably, the reinforcements sent by Huang Taiji have not yet arrived at their destination.
The Japanese army got a big deal. Fortunately, there was no reward for recovering the city, otherwise the court would have lost a lot of money...
"Queen Mother, please give me your blessing!"
Now, the high-ranking generals of the Japanese army can pose for photos under Fuzhou City again. Comparing people with each other is really annoying!
"Brother Hong, is what the letter says true?"
Empress Zhou didn't understand military matters at all, so she could only ask her son for advice on such matters.
"Mother, after the Japanese army annihilated the main force of the Donglu forces near Lushun, there were not many Donglu troops left in the area from Fuzhou to Lushun. It is reasonable for the Japanese army to take advantage of the situation and recapture Fuzhou City, and the photos have been sent. "
With photos as proof, there is no way to fake it. But do you still need to take a day off and eat and drink a lot? This is the most important question.
"Brother Xang makes sense!"
Empress Zhou could only nod her head in understanding. As long as her eldest son was concerned about this, she just went to court on time every day to listen to politics.
Fortunately, the good news continues, which can be considered very gratifying, indicating that the eldest son's method is indeed effective, and the Ming Dynasty is indeed hopeful for ZTE.
"Enter the court and circulate it to the cabinet and all your beloved ministers!"
Although it wasn't another "pop" of three thousand braids, it was still a great joy to recapture an important town. At least Master Wang had not done this kind of thing in recent years.
The Ming Dynasty does not need to kill anyone, but it can be achieved by just spending some money. That is really the best. There is nothing more effective than this method.
"I congratulate Your Highness! Our Ming Dynasty is booming!"
The first assistant Zhun Guo relied on Xue Guoguan to continue his job - flattering.
After him, there was a group of people's collective flattery, which made the hall echo.
With the Lushun case and the prince's analysis, everyone had no doubts about him.
Not to mention, the prince's method of using mercenaries to deal with the Donglu is indeed feasible, and it is very fruitful.
"I believe that although there are frequent good news at present, we should still be modest and prudent, guard against arrogance and impetuosity, and never be overheated or blinded by the power of power! Because our Ming Dynasty is still in the strategic defense stage in terms of overall situation, and we do not have the strength in terms of military strength or preparation. The conditions for counterattacking Liaodong. Therefore, we must continue to implement the established shrinking defense strategy as always. The current tasks are to build cities, train troops, and make more weapons. After the rogue bandits are wiped out, we can then slowly attack the Eastern captives. Since the Japanese army has won consecutive battles, I I hope we can continue to cooperate with them next year!”
At this juncture, it is necessary to pour cold water on everyone, lest they start planning a counterattack again. When the braid is far from damaging the muscles and bones, the counterattack means failure.
Once this last bit of mobile force is rounded up by the opponent, the Ming Empire will be finished in an instant, and all the money that a certain prince managed to obtain will become a trophy.
"I think what your Highness said is absolutely true. The Donglu have been wreaking havoc in Liaodong for a long time. It is not as cold as a day to freeze three feet, and the time to thaw will naturally not be too short. The Japanese army's expedition to Liaodong just gave Ming Dynasty an opportunity to reorganize its troops. , only when Master Wang is fully prepared can we get twice the result with half the effort."
In terms of military affairs, Xue Guoguan is not much better than Empress Zhou, but as long as you make sure of one prerequisite, which is to hold the chicken thigh tightly and follow the son-in-law's wishes, you can't go wrong.
Anyone who is not a fool knows that the Liao Dynasty is corrupt. Even if Xu Da is reincarnated, it will not change immediately. Every three to five years, it is a daydream to defeat the Donglu.
"I agree with what Your Highness and Chief Assistant have said. The past defeats are clearly visible in our eyes. We must not take the Eastern captives lightly. I am very clear that we should proceed step by step and rectify our military equipment."
Although Wang Jiayan, the Minister of War, could not stand Xue Guoguan's flattering face, he basically agreed with some of the chief assistant's statements regarding the strategy against the enemy.
As the Minister of War, he knew very well what the situation outside the Pass was like. At the moment, he simply did not have the conditions to counterattack Liaodong.
Although Zu Dashou's troops had more than 10,000 men, they could not defeat even the more than a thousand Dongbu. Wu Sangui's troops were not as powerful as Zu Dashou's troops. At least they had to give Wang Zaijin time to organize the border troops.
Everyone knew that a certain prince had a sharp tongue, and each of them had received ten taels of silver for free just before. He was short-tongued and short-handed, so he couldn't openly oppose the prince and regent right now.
"I know that some of my dear friends are eager to regain Liaodong, but I think all of you know that since the Donglu openly launched a rebellion, the imperial court has spent hundreds of millions of taels of silver to quell the rebellion, right? What is the effect? The reason lies in strategic misjudgments and appropriate tactics. Generals may advance too easily or surrender to the enemy in a timid battle. The soldiers below are even more unwilling to fight and tired of dealing with them. This led to the situation in Jinzhou when I was supervising the country's governance. The northern region has been lost. I am very confident about counterattacking Liaodong. But you can't do everything in a hurry. You should plan well and think twice before making any move. We have to deal with 200,000 Donglu, including the Menggu cavalry. How many king's troops are needed? How many weapons? How much grain and grass? How much silver? If the battle is defeated, more than 100,000 king's troops will die outside the pass. Not to mention that the outside of the pass cannot be saved, it will be difficult to save even the capital! I asked the Japanese to send troops just to consolidate the strength. Internal affairs, filling Taicang, reorganizing troops and horses, hoarding grain and grass, and allowing the Japanese army to continue to consume the Donglu troops and contain their momentum to move south. Only in this way can we, the Ming Dynasty, gain precious breathing time and avoid making the same mistakes again. I, the Ming Dynasty Although the territory is thousands of miles away, we have lost against Donglu for more than 20 years, and we have lost very few chips in our hands. If we lose again, we will lose thousands of miles. Therefore, what I mean is that if you are not prepared properly, you will not be able to win. Take the initiative to attack. If you want to fight, you must take the initiative on the battlefield! What is the initiative? It is the probability of winning! How to obtain this probability? It is very simple. One soldier of the King's Division cannot defeat a Donglu, so use two people Come and fight, but if you still can't beat them, then use three people until you can win! How many weapons these soldiers must equip, how much food, grass and silver they must consume must be prepared in advance and cannot be made up for after the situation has passed. My plan is to make new ones every year Fifty thousand soldiers and horses, a total of 250,000 for five years, plus the tribes from various places, the total is 400,000, supplemented by 100,000 Japanese troops, the total force is 500,000, looking for an opportunity to fight the Donglu! To this end, two hundred ships must be built Airships, one thousand tanks, one thousand new artillery pieces, five thousand mortars, five thousand missiles, three million hand grenades, and an additional fifty million taels of silver and five million grains of grain and grass must be prepared!"
After hearing the grand plan of the prince, all the officials were in a state of extreme shock and could not extricate themselves.
An army of 500,000 went north to conquer the Eastern Han Dynasty?
Think about it, the last time was when Chengzu was still alive, right?
As for the weapons and equipment, it is even more confusing to hear.
How long would it take to create the massive weapons the Crown Prince mentioned?
The Ministry of Revenue has spent almost all of the silver deposited in Taicang, and even the reward money for the Japanese army was borrowed from the prince.
Where can I find those fifty million taels of silver?
"My dear friends, do you think that the plan mentioned by me is too huge and not feasible? I also understand what you think, but please think about whether the imperial court was worried about one million taels of silver before. What? What about now? Although the Ministry of Accounts does not have much balance, it is not strapped for money, right? Although my Ming Dynasty faces many difficulties, there is a solution to everything, and the solution is thought up by people. Use your brain more in everything, and more Find a way, talk less nonsense, and use crooked thoughts. This is the way to be an official. I thought that Donglu would enter the pass after autumn. The imperial court has already issued the decree to harvest summer grain. As long as it is in time Just collect the food before the Donglu comes. I will take care of the rest. If the Donglu doesn't come, if the Donglu doesn't come, I will use the methods of the fairy world to severely damage you. If you don't believe me, just wait and see!"
Since Huang Taiji plans to take advantage of his father's move to the south to deal with him, a certain prince cannot sit still and wait for death.
Chin beans?
Although this method is somewhat useful, it is probably not feasible to deal with Bingxue's smart braids. People can try it out without anyone, just by bringing a dog to try it.
The best way is to use steel front. How could a kind-hearted prince use such a low-level and mentally retarded method to defeat the enemy?
Of course, I can't say what the specific method is at the moment. Once the news leaks out, it will definitely not work when the two armies confront each other.
This move is an absolute surefire move. Once used, Huang Taiji and his braided army will be unable to defend against it, even if they know what it is at the time, it will be useless.
I am not afraid that you will come, but I am afraid that you will not come!
If Braid doesn't dare to come to the capital, then this trick is really useless.
A certain prince has no choice but to use himself as bait. It depends on whether the big fish, Braid, is hungry...
Fifty million taels of silver!
The ten-year-old prince!
A capital city!
Not too tempting?
Doesn’t it taste delicious?
Action is worse than excitement!
Dad is here!
Come and play with daddy!
do not be afraid!
I am the stepfather you have not met for many years!
As soon as these words came out, all the officials were inexplicably surprised. They wanted to ask, but were too embarrassed to ask.
Is it possible that the prince really knows how to use the legendary magic to defeat Donglu?
electric shock?
Thunderstorm?
Flint?
The ministers speculated in their hearts for a long time, but none of them came up with it.
But looking at the prince's confident look, he didn't seem to want to tell lies.
"Your Highness, I wonder if this method can be explained clearly?"
Chen Xinjia, the left minister of the Ministry of War, asked the question on behalf of all his colleagues. Even the Han generals poking around in the hall pricked up their ears and wanted to know the secret of the immortal magic.
"It's not that I don't want to tell you all, it's just that this method is a secret, and the secret cannot be leaked! However, the invasion of Donglu is about to happen, and soon, all of you will be able to see it with your own eyes. To me, Donglu The more soldiers and horses come, the better!”
A certain prince was counting on this to make a comeback. Even if his beautiful biological mother asked, he couldn't reveal the details easily.
"Your Highness, if immortal magic can be used to defeat the enemy, wouldn't the imperial court not need to prepare hundreds of thousands of troops and a large amount of grain, grass and silver?"
Li Daiwen, the Secretary of the Ministry of Revenue, cares most about money. As long as he can win without spending money, he is determined to support it with both hands.
"First of all, this method can only be used once, and secondly, the casting distance is limited, and if Donglu notices it and retreats to a safe distance, this method will be ineffective. Therefore, not only must it be kept strictly confidential, but the previously formulated plan must still be continued in an orderly manner. Prepare."
Do you think I am stupid?
This trick won't work once you say it.
When the braids come over, you can watch the show.
If Huang Taiji brought an army of 100,000 people, he would be able to kill two or three thousand people.
It doesn't look like much, perhaps not as many as the Japanese troops achieved.
However, the casualties on the Ming side were very small. On the opposite side, thousands of people died at once. How could it not be scary? ? ?
And more importantly, even if Huang Taiji knew what method a certain prince used, he would still get tricked no matter how close he got.
He used this trick to deal with a certain prince. The certain prince also had an antidote in his hand. Anyway, Ming Dynasty would not lose!
