Daming Military Empire

Chapter 461 The Scary Ming Dynasty
After Zhenzhenhewei had Zhu Cijiong in charge, the progress of various affairs in northern Xinjiang has been astonishingly improved. It is not that Zhu Cijiong's ability is much stronger than Sun Chengzong, but that Zhu Cijiong has much more resources than Sun Chengzong.

Sun Chengzong is only in charge of Liaodong, but Zhu Cijiong holds the entire Ming Dynasty!

Is it the king's land in the whole world, is it the king's minister on the shore of the land, who dares to neglect what the Chongzheng Emperor Zhu Cijiong wants to do.

As soon as he sent out the edict, Cao Bianjiao led the First Army Corps of the Border Guards to Zhenzhenhewei early the next morning. The number of Ming troops suddenly increased to nearly 50.

In the early morning of the third day, another legion arrived, but this time it was not the local legion of Daming, but the Korean legion led by You Shiwei. Next, Da Ming even directly helped them build the railway to the southernmost Jeolla Right-do and Gyeongsang Left-do. Of course, this is also to make it easier for the subjects of Japan to come to Daming.

As for Dongying, let alone, the current king is Zheng Chenggong's younger brother Tagawa Qizaemon. With the favor of the empress dowagers of the two palaces, as long as his request is not too excessive, Zhu Cijiong dare not deny it.

That kid is a ghost, if he dares not agree to his request, he would really like to go to the Forbidden City to sue the two empress dowagers himself, that guy, Zhu Cijiong doesn't want to make the empress dowagers Zhang and Ren angry, so he can only let his temper go coming.

Therefore, the railways and ports in Dongying are also very developed now, and they are not even worse than those in the mainland of Ming Dynasty.

No, on the afternoon of the third day, the First Japanese Army Corps and the Second Japanese Army Army arrived. They were directly received by the Beiyang Navy and Beihai Fleet from the port at the southern tip of North Korea, and then came by train.

This is because the Beiyang Navy and the Beihai Fleet were delayed for a day, and the transshipment at sea was delayed for half a day, otherwise they would have arrived even before the North Korean Army.

However, Tagawa Shichizaemon is also quite good at inviting favors. When he heard the news that Zhu Cijiong was going to gather millions of troops in northern Xinjiang, he not only sent people over, but also sent boats of grain and dried seafood. For this, Zhu Cijiong was also quite pleased, finally he didn't hurt this kid in vain.

By the way, aren't the resources of Japan in later generations very tight, and they have to buy everything, so how can they support food and grass?

In fact, the population of Dongying is not as exaggerated as the later generations, and the land is not as tense as the later generations. Coupled with the agricultural technical support of Ming Dynasty, they still have enough food. Such a vassal state can even produce tens of millions of stones. Food is not a problem at all.

With the 30 army of the vassal state, the construction speed of this railway has been significantly accelerated. Under the guidance of the officials of the Ministry of Industry and the leadership of the Liaodong Tunwei, the progress is simply amazing. Even in the mountains, it can be built for [-] to [-] miles a day. !

Immediately afterwards, railroad tracks, steel, cement and other bridge and pavement materials from the capital were continuously delivered, and grain and grass collected from various places were also delivered day and night. There was even a queue at Zhenzhenhewei Railway Station. People line up, but trains line up. There are too many trains gathered here, and there are countless materials of all kinds. The original two platforms simply cannot be unloaded.

Zhu Cijiong had no choice but to order people to expedite the expansion of the four proposed platforms, and transferred capable officials from the household department to be in charge of dispatching, and even ordered Wu Sangui to lead the Henan Reserve Corps to serve as porters. The congestion at Zhenzhenhewei Railway Station was gradually eased. Otherwise, the queued trains could even go all the way to Liaodong!

The 50 troops gathered at Zhenzhenhewei were not idle either. While practicing, Lu Xiangsheng also arranged various tasks for them.

The infantry is mainly used to cut wood and quarry rocks, and build barracks. Among the 50 troops assembled in Zhenzhenhewei, there are nearly 40 infantry. The efficiency is quite amazing. Not only are there enough materials for building barracks, but also railway sleepers. They took care of everything, including gravel, and even Lu Xiangsheng asked them to build a temporary palace for Zhu Cijiong.

Regarding this point, Zhu Cijiong has never opposed it, why should he pretend to be noble when he can live comfortably?Besides, he will not keep dominating this temporary palace all the time. After he finishes his stay and leaves, he will usually give it to the local officials as a mansion. Anyway, if you don’t build it for them, they will think of ways to build it. It’s better to build it yourself. Give it to them, save them from making mistakes.

As for the cavalry, Lu Xiangsheng arranged for them to deliver food and grass to the Manjing Guard in batches. The garrison on the Man Jing Guard side and the labor for the cemetery were almost 10 people, plus nearly [-] war horses, the consumption of food and grass It is also quite astonishing. If the transportation of civilians is arranged, more than one hundred thousand people will be recruited, and safety issues and time issues must also be considered.

If you use the cavalry to send it, you don’t have to think about any problems. With the equipment of the cavalry, no matter what bandits and robbers see them, they will just want to escape. There is no such thing as looting or looting; with the assistance of horses, the delivery speed is also fast. Yes, it can definitely arrive within ten days, so there is no need to worry about delays.

Of course, the cavalry is not only doing such chores, including the cavalry of the Manjingwei, Lu Xiangsheng has arranged for them a more important task, that is to go north and west to check the terrain and the enemy's intelligence.

For this reason, Zhu Cijiong also specially asked Wang Zhengnan to transfer a large number of Jinyiwei spies and cavalry to investigate together, and Cao Wenzhao was also sent by Lu Xiangsheng to Manjingwei to be responsible for arranging scouting cavalry.

The investigation progress of nearly 20 cavalry and thousands of Jinyiwei spies is quite astonishing. The sand table models in the west and north of Manjingwei are gradually expanding, at least two or three inches a day, and the distance in reality is hundreds of miles!
The formation speed of the Zhongyong Army is also quite astonishing. Within ten days, all the [-] elite mobilized by the six reserve legions will be in place. The weapons and equipment provided by the Ministry of Industry have also been delivered, and all kinds of luggage are as much as you want. It was also transported directly from the Monan Grassland, and the speed of the assembly of personnel and materials was astonishingly fast.

Half a month later, Yang Zhong had even drilled the Zhongyong Army in a decent manner, and it was no problem to pull them directly into the battlefield.

At this time, almost all the millions of troops are in place, and the 60 troops of the vassal states have all been invested in the construction of the railway. Under the guidance and supervision of the Ministry of Industry, the railway from Zhenzhenhewei to Manjingwei has been completed. Halfway through construction, and half a month later, it will be open to traffic!
Tsarist Russia is still in the dark at this time. They know that attacking the Ming Empire must have stabbed a hornet's nest, but they don't know that the speed of the Ming army's assembly is more terrifying than that of a hornet. They think that it will take at least two or three months for the Ming Empire to make a move. Effective response, but did not know that in less than a month, the Ming Empire is almost ready!
Zhu Cijiong received reports from all parties, and immediately sent a telegram to the capital, asking Qin Gongming, Qin Yiming, and Ma Xianglin to rush to Zhenzhenhewei for a meeting.

People from all walks of life have gathered, the construction of the railway is about to be completed, and the food, grass and supplies have piled up into an endless ocean. It is time to discuss the details of the action of raising troops and revenge.

Dare to provoke the Ming Empire, I want to show you how terrifying the Ming Empire is!
