Bringing Military Supplies to Ming Dynasty - Chapter 1681

Guangdong chief envoy department.

Jurisdiction: Guangzhou, Zhaoqing, Shaozhou, Nanxiong, Huizhou, Chaozhou, Gaozhou, Leizhou, Lianzhou, Qiongzhou, etc.

Of course, the present Gaozhou Prefecture and Leizhou prefecture have been occupied by the Yang five-star army. The land of Guangdong is not complete. At one time, Yang Xuan, the left envoy of Guangdong’s Political Bureau, was frightened for fear that the five-star army would come over when.

Fortunately, the imperial court then negotiated with the Yang family, and the two sides seemed to have shaken hands and made peace. But then Yang Yang was assassinated in Kyoto and Cao Jixiang instigated Yang Liu, a member of the Yang family, to rebel with a false imperial edict.

After the Yang Department took out the imperial edict in Cao Jixiang’s arms, the Southern Ming Court naturally would not recognize it. It called it Cao Jixiang’s personal behavior and denounced the false imperial edict. But anyone with some judgment knows that this must have come from Zhu Qizhen. Although eunuchs have great power, they still don’t have the courage to forge an imperial edict and re seal the king.

Yang Xuan has scolded Cao Jixiang’s incompetence in his heart more than once. You just do it. It is said that the strongest fortress is easy to be broken from the inside. This kind of thing that encourages the people of the Yang family to rebel is in the right direction. The key is why you didn’t succeed and have been given evidence. What is it? Isn’t it incompetence?

Now, with such excuses, it must be enough for Yang Department to call next. In this way, Yang Xuan quickly dispatched troops and made a decision to fight with Yang Department. At this time, the imperial court also saw this scene. The reinforcements came. When general Guan Ying appeared in Guangzhou with 300000 troops, Yang Xuan was determined and hurried to meet with all the officials under his rule.

After these experiences, Guan Ying finally grew up, became a general of the unified army, and supported 300000 soldiers. It can be said that he is satisfied. But if you look carefully, you can also see the look of worry in his eyes.

Guan Ying dealt with the five-star army very early, and once united to calm the chaos. At that time, the combat power of the five-star army surprised Guan Ying. Now after so many years, Yang Department has won several Daming sites. It is conceivable that the other party’s combat power is strong. It can be said that the task this time is not so easy to complete.

The general died in a hundred battles.

As a trusted General of Nanming Dynasty, ending his life on the battlefield is the fate of Guan Ying. He can’t and won’t shirk it. He would like to see how strong the five-star army has been over the years. He wants to give lessons to the five-star army who has never been defeated, so that the other party can know that the five-star army is nothing more than a small one in front of the Nanming army.

Three hundred thousand troops drove directly outside the city of Guangzhou and set up temporary barracks. Guan Ying and his party entered the city and met many important civil and military officials in Guangdong.

As one of the important garrisons in Guangdong, General Li Hanyi of Guanghai garrison reported the basic situation before the war to Guan Ying. This person has some ability to become the commander of the first guard station. At least he has made clear the strength of the five-star army and the number of the troops sent.

“General Guan, the five-star army opposite us is about 100000 people. They are mainly the third army, supplemented by Lengfeng second division and foreign Russia first division. There are about 50000 people in the third army, including infantry and firearm soldiers. Lengfeng second division is full of firearm soldiers. The number is nearly 10000, and the foreign Russia first division is full of cavalry, with a number of 50000. There are also some auxiliary soldiers transporting food and grass, the number is unknown. Oh, right , I heard that the scouts in front inquired back and said that the king of Wunan would come to the front line to command the war. ”

After saying these words, General Li Hanyi returned to his seat. Yang Xuan and other civil servants looked at Guan Ying one by one with Qi Yi’s eyes, waiting for his answer.

Guan Ying had already noticed the eyes of the people. He knew that he had to make a statement at this time to reassure the people. Then he just laughed and said in an open-minded tone: “Well, General Li has done a lot of work before. After knowing the deployment of the other side’s forces, it will be easy to do next. This trip, the general leads more than 200000 troops. With the troops in Guangdong, there are 300000 people. The other side has only 100000. With three dozen and one, he has the potential of geographical advantage. Are you afraid of being invincible?”

“Yes, yes, we have the advantage of troops and are more familiar with the terrain. We will win.” Yang Xuan and others echoed.

For a moment, everyone was in agreement. It seemed that they had won the battle. Kuang Ye’s face remained unchanged. Over the years, he had been studying the fighting methods of the five-star army. Although he had not personally seen it on the front line, he could see its strength from the opponent’s achievements. He had never seen his opponent.

If the five-star army were easy to deal with, it would not have such a brilliant record. But it is absolutely impossible to let Nanming fall without fighting with this record. Kuang Ye has a high fighting spirit, “Gentlemen, this time, the five-star army is fierce. I heard that they are either cavalry or bicycles. They move so fast. In order not to let them give full play to their advantages, the general decided to stick to the Guangzhou mansion, integrate the army into a fist, and decide the victory or defeat by fighting with them under the city.”

“OK, OK, this is good. It integrates advantages. Let the other party move too fast, and finally come to the city and fight with us.” Li Hanyi, commander of guanghaiwei, was the first to agree.

The opinions of the two generals were so unified that all the civil servants who did not understand the methods of war agreed. Yang Xuan, the left envoy of Guangdong’s Political Bureau, also said that he would do a good job in grain reserves to ensure that the army could eat enough.

After the meeting, Nanming quickly took action. The fast horse soldiers were sent. After being ordered by the Nanming army in the nearby city, they quickly went out of the city and concentrated in the direction of Guangzhou government. In a short time, the Nanming military strength of the whole Guangzhou government reached 450000.

The five-star army marching towards Guangdong also received information from spies in various cities and learned that the Nanming army was retreating to Guangzhou government to fight a decisive battle with them. At present, they also accelerated their march and came straight to Guangzhou government.

After several months of training, the third army has restored its original staffing, and many missing personnel have been transferred from chixian city. They are soldiers who have been meticulously trained by Lengfeng’s first division and known as instructors. With the participation of these people, Wu Sheng’s confidence in the army is fierce. Now he is waiting for the right opportunity to fight with Nanming.

Among the Yang troops, the third army is the most complicated. They have infantry, cavalry and firearm soldiers. This is also because the third army was formed under the double attack of the Principality of Ross and the Golden Horde. When they were far away from the rear and couldn’t get any goods and personnel to be supplemented, they formed an army.

Fortunately, it has finally achieved results. The third army has grown from less than 8000 people to more than 50000 people. Now it can be described as having strong morale and combat effectiveness.

A third army is already so powerful, not to mention the cold front second division as an auxiliary. Although they have only nearly 10000 personnel, they are all composed of musketeers. It is not difficult to do so. They are all motorized troops. Partial three wheeled motorcycles fill the whole second division, which has increased their action speed by more than ten times.

During this period, chixian city has stepped up the production process since it successfully built the first partial three wheeled motorcycle. Finally, nearly 10000 vehicles were delivered, all of which were allocated to the second, fourth and fifth divisions of Lengfeng in this war.

Lengfeng second division, which originally needed bicycles to improve speed, has now become a motorized division. They are also full of war. They just want to make a good performance on the battlefield to repay the love of King Wunan for them.

There are already two strong armies, and the next first division of foreign Russia seems a little insignificant. Although they were all cavalry, because they were not part of the Han Army, the war was only regarded as preparatory servitude. Although Mr. ahuli was disappointed, he didn’t complain at all. On the contrary, he kept restricting his subordinates and warned them that the opponent this time was the Han people. He couldn’t kill innocent people without orders, otherwise no one could save you.

In addition, Yang Chendong also came, along with 5000 black riding dragon guards and a full 100000 logistics army. These people are Han auxiliary soldiers who have undergone short training. Their role is not on the battlefield. In addition to transporting materials, they are more responsible for guarding prisoners and publicizing Yang’s policy.

Obviously, before the war, Yang Chendong had expected the result of the war. If we can’t defeat the Nanming army which is only infantry with firecrackers and cavalry, the five-star army doesn’t want to unify the world. It’s better to stay in the city seat and eat until death.

With too many firearms higher than this era, Nanming has long been regarded by Yang Chendong as his own back garden. If you don’t want to conquer here at the least cost, I’m afraid the army will continue to March after winning the three provinces.

There should be sufficient reasons for the war between countries, which is just a manifestation of lack of self-confidence. The real strong despise it. I’m stronger than you. I’m going to clean you up. What’s the matter? Do you disagree? Let’s fight.

Just like Yang’s conquering other countries, you don’t need any reason at all, that is, you can’t take care of yourself. In the end, you will have to fall if you don’t fall. But for Nanming, the land of Han people, Yang Chendong thought he was very lenient. What he wanted was to influence each other at the same time, and finally win the whole Nanming without blood.

But as more and more intelligence cables came to him, he had to change his mind. Seeing that the telegram said that Nanming had led the people to a miserable life in order to prepare for the war, he caught strong men everywhere and collected food and ordnance everywhere. When most people had reached the point where they could not live, he had to have a long pain rather than a short pain, and was determined to conquer it by force. Only in this way can we win Nanming in a shorter time and save the Han people from Seoul.
