Lord of Ming Dynasty

However, what Zhang Qiang wanted was not the support of the soldiers and the Gao family, but the influence and prestige, so that the Queen Mother of the Dashun Army would surrender, so the Dashun Army would not even exist in name only.

Li Guo must have been unhappy when the Gao family announced it, because he could not set up another Dashun army and become king himself. He needed the name of the Dashun army to continue commanding those people to be loyal to him. When the name was gone, he would have to It was extremely painful like Li Dingguo.

It can be said that this move made Dashun, the peasant uprising army and gangster collective that caused great waves in Ming Dynasty and was still charged with destroying Ming Dynasty in history, truly disappeared in the long river of history overnight.

In the future, Li Guo and the others can only be called the rebellious army, and once again fell into the ranks of rogues. If he joins the Huaxia Army with the Gao family, his influence must be created and created by himself again.

Zhang Qiang did not stay by the river for too long. When Wang Yuqun knew that he had arrived here and led the No.19 Field Brigade to the camp, Zhang Qiang had already returned to the camp.

Chapter 5 Fourteen The Emperor's Meaning

Wang Yuqun circled around Zhang Qiang, still complaining, "Commander, you really shouldn't be in danger yourself. In case you make a mistake, is the Huaxia Army still the Huaxia Army? Let Master Wei know that you came to our The line of defense, but something happened, wouldn't I just fall to the ground? Commander-in-Chief——"

"Okay, okay, stop chattering here, get out and set up defenses, and then choose a regiment of soldiers and horses to protect Gao Shi. If Gao Shi has other problems, I will ask you?" Zhang Qiang was not polite. He told Wang Yuqun that this person was nagging in his ears like an old woman. Although he did something wrong, it was inevitable, so there was no need for such nagging.

Wang Yuqun was speechless, so he could only bow and retreat. When he got outside the tent, he looked at Zhang Qiang's camp where Zhang Qiang was, feeling an inexplicable feeling in his heart. We are subjects."

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard someone say, "A courtier should keep his duty as a courtier, Vice General Wang, he is no longer the governor you served, don't use your thoughts and habits in the personal guards to fight with him." When he speaks, you have to be careful and prudent as a courtier, and don't lose your etiquette."

Wang Yuqun turned around and saw Xiao Fei dressed in military uniform, somewhat capable, handsome, and coercive, standing not far away with several of his personal guards who were equally strong and powerful, with their hands behind their backs facing him.

Surprised, Wang Yuqun hurried to Xiao Fei's side, stood up straight, and saluted a military salute, "Master Admiral, the deputy commander of the No.19 Field Brigade has seen Lord Xiao."

Xiao Fei nodded slightly, and asked seriously, "What's going on?"

Wang Yuqun told Xiao Fei that he had received the report from the cavalry battalion that the governor had led a battalion of personal soldiers to the cavalry battalion, and dispatched the cavalry battalion to negotiate with the Gao family. The admiral reported the letter, and personally mobilized the [-]th Field Brigade to come here. After arriving here, the meeting was over, and the final general did not participate in the negotiation. However, I heard the battalion commander of the cavalry battalion and the garrison general said that the situation was very critical at that time. The enemy ambushed the killer, and the commander-in-chief must be in danger, so the last general persuaded the commander-in-chief based on his identity as a member of the personal guards, and the commander-in-chief became angry and drove the general out of the camp."

"Do you know the reason?" Xiao Fei asked in a deep voice.

Wang Yuqun shook his head, "If the general can figure it out, he won't be standing here anymore, but serving in the tent."

"Does the governor have any orders for you?" Xiao Fei asked.

Wang Yuqun said: "The governor ordered the general to dispatch a regiment of troops to enter Nanyang Mansion to protect the Gao family, and the general was about to send that regiment to fight Aobai. In the Loyalty Battalion, the [-]th Brigade rushed to the front and suffered heavy losses, and then followed you, my lord, to fight against the Ming army of He Tengjiao. The [-]th Brigade is now the main force of the elite, six out of ten, and later added some newly transferred Jiangxi Prefecture defense The battalion, together with the elite soldiers in the militia brigade, barely recovered to its current strength.

The last general just didn't know whether to draw all the elites of all battles, or to send a new army composed of some garrison battalions, and add some backbone elite soldiers to Nanyang Mansion? "

Xiao Fei pondered for a while, "Looking at the situation, there are many factions in the Loyalty Camp. Some people disagree with joining our Huaxia Army. Gao's majesty cannot suppress the opponent. If this is the case, there is no need to fight fiercely. Let us recruit a battalion of elite veterans. One battalion of elite defenders, one battalion of elite militiamen, and then a thousand people's militia and civilian men, and just choose a smart and reliable general as the leading general.

Afterwards, I will write to Governor Wei and ask him to draw you a regiment from other field brigades. It may not be elite, but it is still possible to supplement the strength of your brigade. "

Wang Yuqun saluted, "Thank you for your care, Admiral."

"Okay, keep working hard. You are all lieutenants now, and you are very hopeful that you will be able to be the commander-in-chief of a town in the future. I am optimistic about you." Xiao Fei patted him on the shoulder, Wang Yuqun was moved with enthusiasm, Xiao Fei is a relative of the older generation The guards, he was the later personal guard, all of them were from personal guards, they were different from those officials who were from Zhang Qiang's original confidantes, they were Zhang Qiang's most trusted confidantes, they were Zhang Qiang's pro-army.

Because of the great future of the pro-military, at least it will not be too sad.

After Xiao Fei and Wang Yuqun finished speaking, they walked towards the tent of the Chinese army.

He is undoubtedly the lucky one among the pro-military. Hu Kui, who is older than him, is now the commander-in-chief and has been transferred to the guard brigade as the brigade commander. Bagyaru is only a top-ranking deputy brigade commander in the field brigade. Development varies from person to person, depending on the situation, he either goes to the Ministry of Military Intelligence or the Guards Brigade as brigade commander and then promoted to general soldier, but like him, he can serve as admiral of several field brigades, but he is the only admiral of military affairs one.

Maybe other people will come to his position in the future, but what happened after that time, now he is the only one.

Of course he can't be compared with other seniors. For example, He Jin, although he came from the Ming army, he was born in the Dashun army, but he was an admiral early on. Maybe he can be promoted to a supervisor and supervise in one direction In the future, he can take over Wei Wuji's post as minister, or go to the ranks of civil servants to develop a bit, go to the Ministry of War, to the Ministry of Industry, but no matter what, he can't get rid of his identity as an outsider, but he must be a member of the governor. , pro-military status.

It means that as long as you do not make mistakes, future generations will be blessed.

Seeing that the Huaxia army is in full swing, and they are only one step away from setting the Central Plains in the north. The founding fathers and the achievements of Conglong are the pro-army like them who enjoy the highest treatment.

Entering the tent of the Chinese army, Zhang Qiang was dozing off. Zhang Qiang was very tired. He marched in three days to negotiate with Gao. Although the result of the negotiation was not satisfactory, he knew that he should not be too hasty. Obtaining an elite soldier can also obtain an additional territory of the government, and it is obvious that his third-stage strategic goal has been launched. Once he has stepped into the border of Henan Province, the third-stage strategic goal is about to be achieved.

Taking Nanyang Mansion as a breakthrough point, they hit the beach in one breath, encircling Hong Chengchou's Qing army to the south of the Huaihe River, and then they can slowly deal with them, without having to fight Hong Chengchou to the death, and without letting the Huaxia Army fall into the trap like Germany did in World War I. In the quagmire of trench warfare, this is the strategic purpose of the third stage.

Xiao Fei walked into the tent, and the sound of footsteps woke him up.

He looked up at Xiao Fei, "Oh, you're here, what's the latest movement of the surrounding enemies?"

After saluting, Xiao Fei sat next to him, "Governor, the area around Nanyang Mansion is very peaceful. They have not had any friction with the Huaxia Army, and there is no sign that they will target us. In terms of war, the Wang Guangtai tribe who was subdued by Li Guo The battle with the Qing army was more difficult. Their strength was limited, and their combat quality was not high. They suffered some losses and could only defend Xinyang County. They were all around 2 people, the Qing army had nothing to do with Pingdingshan, and Gao Yigong could only suppress the Qing army in Zhumadian, but he could not completely take down Zhumadian and expand the territory.”

Zhang Qiang nodded slightly, "It's exactly as I thought. The Zhongzhen Camp is already a tired army. At the end of the battle, if Hong Chengchou gets ruthless and mobilizes the army, they will be destroyed in an instant. I don't know why the Qing army didn't do this. You have to be careful, and at the same time find a way to deal with some generals in the Loyalty Battalion and let them become our soldiers. If there is any movement, immediately send troops across the river, and use elite troops to forcibly transform the recovered Loyalty Battalion Dashun Army troops , when the time comes, we will control Nanyang Mansion."

"anything else?"

Chapter 5 Fifteen: The Destruction of the Dashun Army

Hearing Zhang Qiang's question, Xiao Fei continued: "He Tengjiao's Ming army did not dare to stay longer at the Shaanxi-Gansu border. After fighting with the Dajin army in Shangluo for a period of time, the whole army retreated to Ankang."

"How many troops do they have?" Zhang Qiang asked.

"According to the investigation of the No. 20 No. [-] Field Brigade's Merlin Fish Department, there are about [-] elite soldiers and [-] remnants, most of whom are captives and civilians. Wu Sangui's department guarding Hanzhong Mansion is chasing after them. Soldiers and civilians flee every day. , and the supply is seriously insufficient.”

Xiao Fei answered carefully.

"Well, as long as they don't break into our defended Hubei Province, they can go wherever they want. Leave them alone and let them bite dogs. The point is that the ethnic minorities in our occupied areas must have less contact and more kindness. Water does not violate river water.

But if they are wrong, or if they take the initiative to attack us, we must resolutely eliminate them. We must not allow us to accept them passively. A low-level unit of the militia accompanying the army.

These troops will definitely not use them in future wars. They must be allowed to settle in the local area to fill the large population lost due to the war.

This is a long-term job. After you finish these things, you will hand them over to Gu Yuesheng and the others.You mainly pay attention to the Dajin Kingdom. With Hauge’s mind, the Dajin Kingdom can’t beat the Qing Dynasty, and it will definitely lose in the end. At that time, we must grab more territory and more troops. After returning, we will reorganize into the militia and review Afterwards, the elite will enter the garrison battalion, and after a few years, they will be promoted to enter the field brigade of the regular troops of the Huaxia Army. "

Having said this, Zhang Qiang stopped talking and fell into deep thought.

Xiao Fei asked cautiously: "Then how does the Loyalty Camp operate?"

Zhang Qiang said: "You should contact the Military Intelligence Department for this. I will tell you that Wang Neng in Gao Yigong is the fuzi of the Military Intelligence Department. Didn’t the commander of the field brigade of that army want to send a general? Let that general be Wang Neng’s deputy. If it works, quickly dispatch a garrison regiment to form a new field brigade. It should be No. 20 Seventh Field Brigade, let Wang Neng act as the brigade commander temporarily, that field brigade is positioned as a second-class field brigade. It will be stationed in Nanyang Mansion in the future."

Xiao Fei said again: "Then the battle to enter Henan Province should be fought by our division?" He knew that Zhang emphasized that Xuanyuan Longfei's fifth field brigade must come up to train Xuanyuan Longfei, so he was worried about the third The stage battle was directed by Xuanyuan Longfei.

Not to mention, Zhang Qiang is really interested in wanting Xuanyuan Longfei to command this battle. Xuanyuan Longfei can set off from Wuchang and directly lead troops into Henan Prefecture, and attack from the Runing Mansion of Wang Guangtai's Ministry, and from Nanyang Mansion, Zhumadian Wait for the ground to attack upwards and recover Henan Province.

Currently Xiao Fei has the No. 19, 21, and [-] field brigades, as well as a cavalry brigade, an artillery brigade, a militia brigade, and other field brigade units. Zhang Qiang's idea is that Xiao Fei will fight at the division level. For the senior officers of the unit, this configuration will be the standard division-level configuration in the future, and other field brigades will fall into Henan Mansion to cooperate with Xuanyuan Longfei to attack the Qing army, and Hubei Prefecture will be garrisoned by Xiao Fei's division.

"Well, your department's future goals are mainly the Dajin Kingdom and the Four Mountains, the various Qing and Nanming warlords in Yunnan and Guizhou, and the remnant chieftain troops. The tasks are heavy, so I want Xuanyuan Longfei to preside over the third phase of the campaign. "

Zhang Qiang replied.

Xiao Fei was a little disappointed. He would change from a general with 10,000+ troops to a division commander with tens of thousands of troops.

Zhang Qiang patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "You can't take all the credit by yourself. There are many people behind and in front of you who are not as good as you. Let everyone miss you, right?"

Xiao Fei quickly smiled and said: "Yes, yes, the governor is right, I am not that greedy for merit."

Zhang Qiang smiled and said: "Okay, okay, I'm not mistaken, I will adjust your department to No. 19, 21, [-] Field Brigade, plus Gaohui's Fifth Cavalry Brigade, Zhao Siyang Artillery Brigade's Seventh Brigade, Under your command, your troops will be the spearhead of the attack, and at the same time, the Great Wall of Steel that defends the enemy, and cannot relax.

Your current task is to keep an eye on the Dajin Kingdom and the Four Mountains. The enemies in Yunnan and Guizhou will be fine. The rest of the garrison will be left to the garrison commander. Brother Zhu’s [-]th Field Brigade will also be transferred to Henan Province The battle was directly commanded by Xuanyuan Longfei.

He commanded well in the Guangzhou mansion, this time it's time for him to show off, you should rest first, too much limelight is not good, just look at Wei Wuji and he knows this, guarding the Jinling mansion for several years without a trace of resentment.And he did a pretty good job, that old thief Hong Chengchou didn't take advantage of it. "
