Daishan looked up and down Mang Gurtai several times.
It wasn't until Mang Gurtai felt nervous that he said, "You're also concerned about the Great Khan's position, are you?"
"Second brother, what are you saying? I'm sorry for you. Originally, the seat of Khan should have been yours, but it was given to Lao Ba at a cheap price. It's not worth it for me to take your place, second brother." Mang Gurtai said hurriedly.
Although he was thinking about Khan Wei in his heart, he didn't want others to know that he was thinking about it.
Hearing this, Daishan sneered in his heart and said, "I think it's good for Lao Ba to be a big gold sweater. As for me, I'm getting older and have no interest in fighting for these things."
He is not stupid, how could he let a reckless guy like Mang Gurtai be a gunman.
"You need to be more prudent when you are older. I, Mang Gurtai, am not convinced by anyone else who is doing this. I am only convinced by you, second brother, who is doing this." Mang Gurtai expressed his attitude to Daishan.
Dai Shan raised his head and glanced at the sky, and said, "If you want to be the Great Khan and fight with Lao Ba yourself, I, the second brother, have no interest."
After saying that, he left without looking back.
Mang Gurtai, who stayed where he was, looked at Dai Shan's retreating figure and muttered to himself: "Since you don't want this position, second brother, don't blame me for worrying about you."
As the princes and belles who were discussing the matter left, news spread that they were preparing to use troops against the Tiger Flag in the Ming Dynasty.
Things that only one person knows are secrets. With so many people knowing about the need to use troops against the grassland and the Tiger Flag, it is naturally impossible to hide the news.
Food and grass supplies must be prepared in advance before the army is dispatched.
We also need to contact the Horqin tribe, our allies on the grassland, and the Mongolian tribes of Khalkha who have taken refuge in Dajin.
And this news was immediately transmitted back to Datong by the secret agents placed inside the counterfeit gold by the Foreign Intelligence Agency.
The Ming army on the Ningyuan front line thought that the slave thieves were mobilizing food and fodder and were going to attack the Ningjin defense line again, but the Tiger Character Banner had learned that the targets of the slave thieves' expedition were the Chahar tribe and themselves.
While the slaves and thieves were mobilizing food and fodder for the army, the soldiers and horses of the Tiger Banner in Lushun successfully took over the entire territory of Lushun, and officials sent from Datong were sent to govern the place.
In Lushun, the Tiger Character Banner did not implement the guard system. All land belonged to the Tiger Character Banner. The people of Lushun were only responsible for farming. The land would be distributed to these people only after three years.
In the north city of Lushun, it belongs to Chen Jisheng's headquarters.
Xing Chaoxi was at the top of the list, and there were officers sitting in two rows on the left and right.
"I just received news that the slave thieves are preparing to cross the grassland and invade the northwest of the Ming Dynasty occupied by our tiger-character banner." Xing Chaoxi glanced at the three battalions under his command and said again, "I wonder if you have any countermeasures. ?”
Zhao Wu, who returned to Lushun City, was the first to stand up and said: "Mao Wenlong and Dongjiang Town were able to contain the energy of the slave thieves, and we can also poke the slave thieves in the butt."
"Yes, we also poke the slave thieves in the butt. We can't be inferior to Mao Wenlong and those Ming troops." Another battalion leader, Ma Liu, said supportively.
Although Qin Xiaozhan did not speak, he nodded in agreement at the third battle barracks, obviously meaning the same thing.
Xing Chaoxi pondered for a moment, and then said: "It's okay to defeat them, but how to fight? We have just captured Lushun, and our troops are exhausted and need to rest and conserve strength. A small fight is fine, but once a big fight occurs, we may not be able to handle it. "
Although Lushun was nominally captured by the Tiger Character Banner, no one can guarantee that there are no people who aspire to the Ming Dynasty. It can even be said that there is no shortage of people who aspire to the Ming Dynasty.
After all, the Tiger-Character Banner had only occupied Lushun for a short period of time, and people's hearts were still in the Ming Dynasty. The Tiger-Character Banner appeared more as a rebel in the hearts of the people in Lushun.
In order to maintain the stability of Lushun, it is natural to leave some troops in Lushun.
If some of the few soldiers and horses are left behind, even if all the rest are sent out, the threat to the slave thieves will not be too great.
"Haven't the slave thieves not sent out their army to the grassland yet? We can train our troops quickly during this period." Zhao Wu suggested.
Xing Chaoxi looked at Zhao Wu and asked, "Can you tell me more details?"
"That's what I think." Zhao Wu said, "We have captured a lot of Ming troops. Almost all of them are from Liaodong and have a blood feud with the slave thieves. We can train them, just like the thousands of officers and soldiers I temporarily formed before. Same as the human team.”
Ma Liu on the side asked: "How to ensure combat effectiveness?"
"I have observed carefully recently that the combat effectiveness of the Ming army is not too weak. It is at least stronger than the Ming army I saw in Shanxi. The key is that the Ming army in Liaodong saw the slave thieves increase their morale by three points out of thin air, and their military morale is usable." Zhao Wu said.
Qin Xiaozhan, who was sitting aside, nodded and said: "What Zhao Yingzheng said is right. I also discovered that these Ming troops in Lushun are definitely not bad. It's a pity that the Mingzhu secretly cast it and wasted it in the hands of the Ming Dynasty."
"The time is too short. The slave thieves will send out troops in two months at most. We don't have that much time to train these captured Ming troops." Ma Liu said.
Tiger-character flag soldiers require absolute discipline. Once training begins, not only the discipline of the Ming army must be trained, but also various exclusive skills of the Ming army's tiger-character flag soldiers.
There is still a big difference between the Tiger Banner army, which mainly uses firearms, and the Ming army.
Hearing this, Zhao Wu smiled and said: "I have thought of this a long time ago, so I said that these Ming troops would form a thousand-man army. Let's call it this name for the time being. We can change it to a more appropriate name in the future. "
"It's easy to change the name, but what about training?" Ma Liu asked.
Zhao Wudao: "Even if we go to poke the slave thieves in the butt, we still have to wait for the slave thieves' rear to be empty. During this period, we will have at least two months or more to train the Ming army we captured."
"How do you want to train? If you train according to the requirements of military regulations, there will definitely not be enough time." Ma Liu said.
After hearing this, Zhao Wu smiled and said: "We should still train according to the previous style of the Ming army. However, we can increase the intensity of training, increase nutrition for these Ming soldiers, and nourish their bodies until they go to the battlefield. , use them as auxiliary soldiers in the Ming army."
"The solution is not impossible, but just asking them to work hard without giving any benefits is not enough. If you want to stimulate greater combat effectiveness, you cannot cut off the benefits. Even if you are fishing, you must first put bait on the hook." Some understand Zhao Wu's thoughts. Xing Chaoxi said.
"After they have performed meritorious service, they can be turned into regular soldiers and become soldiers." Zhao Wu said.
Xing Chaoxi shook his head and said: "It's not enough. In the eyes of these Ming soldiers, even soldiers are working for their lives, and it can't be considered a benefit."
"The Ming soldiers in Dongjiang Town rarely get paid. As long as these Ming soldiers who are willing to fight for the Tiger Flag have made meritorious service, we can accept them as official soldiers and pay them, and take care of them when dividing the fields. In this way, I think there will be many Ming soldiers willing to kill the enemy for the Tiger Flag," Zhao Wu said.
