"When will your caravan go to Zhangjiakou?"
"Khan, it's only been three to five days, everything that needs to be prepared is ready!"
"Thanks for your hard work!"
Huang Taiji said lightly, picked up a letter from the table and handed it to Wubai: "Give this secret letter to the shopkeeper of Donglai Inn in Zhangjiakou."
"You must have been doing this for more than ten years! After you finish this trip, you can come back. You don't have to run anymore. I will be the city lord for you."
"clear!"
Ubai bowed and turned to leave.
This person is responsible for conveying the information exchange between Daming and Houjin, and is only responsible for one part of it.
A piece of information has to be forwarded more than ten times. Only the last person who delivered the message knows who the letter ultimately falls into.
They have been operating this line for decades, and they can deliver information accurately every time.
As for failure, it doesn't matter. The secret letter is written in secret. Only he and the person who receives the letter know it. If others take it, it will be a piece of waste paper.
After dealing with this, Huang Taiji left Chongzheng Hall and headed towards the military camp.
On the other hand, he returned to the room where he was dealing with official business, made himself a cup of tea, and began to check and fill in the gaps in the proposal he just made.
The Ming Dynasty cannot go back. Only when Hou Jin rises completely, becomes an important minister, and the Ming Dynasty is destroyed can he better prove to the scholars of the Ming Dynasty that his choice is right.
He who knows the current affairs is a hero, and obeying the will of God is the kingly way.
Fan Wencheng found a high-sounding reason for his shamelessness, and then began to study how to persuade the Mongolian tribes.
Of course, Chongzhen didn't know about their plot against the Ming Dynasty. Even if he knew, he wouldn't take it to heart.
Whether it is attacking Ningyuan, subduing the Mongolian tribes, or alienating Mao Wenlong, it will take an extremely long time.
After Ningyuan was breached, there were dozens of fortresses and large cities along the entire Jinning defense line behind it. The imperial court got the news and sent heavy troops to defend it, and there was another Ningyuan city.
In a few months, all the 21 Guards will be reorganized. Field battles outside the city may not be enough, after all, there has not been a large-scale military attack, but it is definitely enough to defend the city.
I have plenty of money, so I really have nothing to fear in the short term, unless Liaodong as a whole surrenders.
Huang Taiji was plotting against the Ming Dynasty, and Chongzhen was plotting against establishing slaves. The longer it was delayed, the better it would be for the Ming Dynasty.
If he really wants to cross Mongolia, he will close the door and beat the dog.
If you are poor, you can use tactics, and if you are rich, you can cover it with firepower. The Firearms Research Institute has already begun to manufacture artillery. If the quality is not good, then quantity can be used.
Even if you have 100,000 or 200,000 cavalry, no matter how fast you go, the city wall cannot be broken, and hundreds of artillery fire, you will die but not live.
After thinking for a while, Chongzhen also left in front of the Ming Dynasty map: "Daban, ask the Ministry of War to pass the message to the Mongolian guards and ask them to keep a close eye on the Mongolian ministries.
In particular, the Chahar, Uliangha, and Tumote tribes immediately reported back any news. "
Wang Chengen left in response.
These three divisions are connected together and are close to the border of the Ming Dynasty. As long as these three divisions are opened up, the Jiannu army can break through the Jiliao defense line. Although it is still early, it must be guarded against.
Everything is going on in an orderly manner, now it’s time to bear fruit.
Wang Chengen came back after delivering the news and reported: "Your Majesty, Commander Zhou sent someone to deliver a letter, saying that he has set off with Teng Xiang's right guard."
"Um!"
Zhou Yuji led Teng Xiang Youwei through the city of Beijing, attracting countless people to watch.
The sergeants all wear soap cloth armor, with a tiger's head painted on the right chest.
A black tiger's head on the military flag that rustled in the north wind was lifelike, as if roaring at the world, declaring his status as king.
As thousands of people marched, there was no sound except the thump of neat footsteps.
The glimmering light of swords and spears in the sun impressed the eyes of the people on both sides, making their hearts tremble.
Facing the eyes of tens of thousands of people, the faces of these sergeants did not change at all, they were extremely solemn and resolute.
The people on both sides were curious and talking in low voices at first, but gradually became quiet.
When we got to Desheng Gate, someone shouted "We must win", and then the people on the street were set on fire.
Slogans such as victory, the might of the Ming army, and triumph rose to the sky.
"This is my mighty master of tomorrow's dynasty!"
"This is called an army. What are those people in the Beijing Camp? I doubt that people like Teng Xiang Youwei can wipe out the Beijing Camp that claims to be a hundred thousand people!"
"Don't mention Jingying. Last time I saw a sergeant wearing Jingying armor building a wall for a marquis' house. It's so fucking outrageous!"
"If the hundreds of thousands of soldiers in Liaodong are like this, why worry about being destroyed?"
"If the salary is given to such a mighty master, the old man will recognize it, but...hey..."
"The military appearance is still very good, the equipment and the spirit of the sergeants are not bad, but I don't know what the combat power is. Don't say that the silver gun has a candle end, it is fancy but not useful."
"The combat power should be good. Don't be paired with a stupid commander. Last time the Tengxiang Four Guards recruited troops, I also participated. After all, the pay and subsidies given were relatively high.
A person like me, who can lift a stone mill weighing more than 100 kilograms with one hand, was rejected. The requirements are ridiculously high. "
"Nonsense, two taels of silver a month, twelve stones of rice and a bushel of salt a year, and enough to eat every meal. If you don't ask too much for this kind of treatment, why don't you raise pigs?"
…
The people were talking one after another and slowly praising Tengxiang's right position.
This is the result that Chongzhen wanted. Firstly, it would stimulate the morale of the people, and secondly, it would deter some people with ulterior motives.
Teng Xiang's right guard left Deshengmen and went straight to Henan after a detour.
In Dongnuan Pavilion, just after Chongzhen sat down for a while, Wang Chengen came again to report that the warrior camp had been assembled.
After listening to Wang Chengen's words, Chongzhen stood up and said, "Set up the warrior camp."
After the formation of the Warrior Battalion, the station was moved to a place two miles south of Long Live Mountain. It took Luan Jia less than half an hour to reach this distance.
"The commander of the Warrior Battalion, Cao Bianjiao, has come to see Your Majesty. The Warrior Battalion has been assembled. Your Majesty is invited to give a grand review!"
As soon as they arrived at the gate of the camp, Cao Bianjiao, who was waiting at the gate of the camp, immediately led several thousand households to come forward and salute.
"Let's go, let me see what you have achieved during this time!"
Entering the station, a team of only 2,000 people wearing light armor stood in line. Although the number was small, it was more murderous than the soldiers of Teng Xiang's right guard.
A few dozen meters away were hundreds of new recruits. Their mud-stained faces were full of curiosity, but no one dared to move.
"Long live my emperor!"
The sergeant just shouted, without any extra movement, still looking intently.
"Fellow soldiers, I'm here to see you!"
"You are all selected from the four guards of Tengxiang. It is not an exaggeration to say that you are the best sergeants.
Judging from the military appearance alone, it looks good, but whether it can be used in actual combat still needs to be tested by yourselves. "
"Your mission this time is to eliminate robbers and thieves within a hundred miles of the official road from Beijing City to Tongguan. This is also the first mission since the formation of the Warrior Battalion. You must do it well."
"I told Cao Aiqing that a hundred exercises are not as good as one battle. Now is the time to prove it to you.
You are the Forbidden Army within the Forbidden Army. If you all suffer casualties when facing some bandits, then simply disband now and go back to your homes to warm up on the kang with your wives and children in your arms. "
At this point, I pampered you for a moment: "In addition to visiting you today, I also have an important thing to announce, and that is the issue of military pay for the warrior camp."
