My wife is number one in the world

Chapter 1993 Preliminary Battle
A tributary of the Gulu River in Turkic territory.

On this road in Yunyang, the infantry of the large army that had repeatedly encircled and suppressed the soldiers of the two countries to no avail was stationed on the north side of the river at this moment.

Stationing here is because it is convenient to get water, which can easily meet the water needs of the soldiers of the army, and secondly, it is to encircle and suppress some Turkic soldiers and horses who ventured to get water.

Although these days the results are not too remarkable, the living space of the enemy army is gradually being squeezed by our own soldiers and horses. It is time to completely encircle the enemy forces of the two countries as soon as the follow-up food and grass arrive and there is no more worries. .

If you can't catch up, then you can learn from the old Han who expelled the Xiongnu, and completely drive them to the territory north of Yinshan Mountain that no one has ever set foot in.

Let them fight against Tsarist Russia marked on the huge map in the Imperial Study Room.

As long as they never set foot in this territory that will be included in the Dalong map in the future, there is actually not much difference between beheading them once and for all, or expelling them.

Domination of the world, domination of the world, what is domination of the world.

After all, isn't it just to win this territory!This is the ultimate goal of the army's several Northern Expeditions.

Yunyang is discussing with Zhang Kuang the next step of military strategy around the sand table, how to completely include the borders of Jintu and Jintu countries into Dalong's map with the least loss.

The soldiers ran into the big tent with a letter in their hands.

"Commander, the deputy commander and the overseer sent a message. For several days, the ruthless enemy army has tried to step into the rivers we have confined to steal water and dig the dams we blocked. They fled at the touch of a button. , when the cavalry brothers turned around, they had already fled several miles away."

Yunyang took the letter and flipped through it, then handed it to Zhang Kuang who was beside him.

"It seems that the enemy's water supply has already been in crisis after we built a dam to intercept it. Unfortunately, we can't go any further, otherwise we will definitely take the opportunity to catch them off guard.

Those who need water are not only those soldiers and horses of the two countries who are fighting and retreating, but also millions of Turkic people.

At that time, if their soldiers and horses had disputes with their own tribes because of the water source, they would have seen it.

A group of surviving people, stubbornly resisting to the end, still can't change the trend that my dragon is about to rule the world. "

Zhang Kuang put aside the visiting letter paper, and nodded lightly in agreement with Yunyang's words: "If the enemy forces confronted each other head-on, maybe we have already captured half of the Turkic territory by now.

However, there was insufficient food and grass, and there were too many infantry, so they could neither catch up with their retreating steps, nor did they dare to encircle them wantonly.

According to the biography of General Xiahou, the follow-up food and grass have now arrived in Pingzhou.

But the further north one goes, the thicker the snow on the official road becomes.

According to the estimation of the daily itinerary, it is estimated that it will take one or two months after this batch of grain and grass arrives in our hands. If something goes wrong, it may be delayed even longer.

Fortunately, our food and grass are still sufficient, otherwise we will have to retreat a certain distance.

But it is not without good news, because the imperial court thought of a compromise. The governors of the six cities in northern Xinjiang and the six major state capitals received the imperial court's letter, and they have already collected food and grass on the spot and dispatched state soldiers from various states. First transport the food and grass to the hands of my Northern Expedition army. "

Yunyang frowned slightly: "The first batch of food and grass was collected from various state capitals in the north, and the further collection will be the surplus food of the people. How will they survive the winter?"

"Marshal, listen to the end of the general's speech, it is precisely because of this that the court came up with a good compromise.

Leave about one month's rations for the people of the state capitals in the Northland, and after General Xiahou's grain and grass are transported to the Northland, they will be returned to the people and the emergency grain depots in the state capitals in equal amounts. "

Yunyang's old eyes became brighter and brighter: "In the end, he dared to argue with Emperor Ruizong and would rather lose his head than give up Jiang Yuanming, Minister of Finance and Household Department. Such a way can be conceived.

If King Side Shoulder hadn't returned to Beijing in time to dispose of Ren Wenyue, the Minister of the Ministry of Family Affairs who caused troubles, I am afraid that Jiang Yuanming would never be able to reach the level of Jiang Yuanming in terms of food and grass for our Northern Expedition army. "

Hearing Yunyang's undisguised praise for Jiang Yuanming, Zhang Kuang nodded his head sighingly.

"What the commander said is true. Fortunately, His Majesty recognized the malpractice committed by Ren Qingrui, the demon empress whom he favored in time, and recalled Jiang Shangshu, who had become an official, to the court. I have to worry about food and grass.

But having said that, don't you think Ren Wenyue's matter is a bit strange, Commander?After thinking about it, I always feel that there is a mastermind behind the scenes."

Before Zhang Kuang finished speaking, he was stopped by Yun Yang, who frowned suddenly: "Zhang Kuang, we are military generals at the frontier, and we should not be involved in court affairs. Don't mention these matters after they have passed."

Zhang Kuang was startled, looked at Yun Yang who suddenly frowned and nodded silently: "Yes, I finally understand."

Yunyang picked up the teacup and took a sip, got up and wandered with complicated eyes: "But apart from Jiang Shangshu, the governors of the six northern Xinjiang cities are also worthy of praise. They can convince the people to trust the government so much, without any collateral. Handed over the surplus food.

It can be seen that the political achievements of these six people are still extremely remarkable, otherwise they would definitely not be able to win the trust of the people. "

Zhang Kuang's expression suddenly became a little weird.

"The commander-in-chief really thinks that just relying on the six governor-generals, he can collect the food and grass consumed by millions of soldiers and horses in a timely manner?"

Yunyang frowned, looked at the inexplicable madness in surprise, and thought for a while.

"Wouldn't it be the side-by-side king who came forward?"

Zhang Kuang smiled wryly and nodded: "The bitter cold in the north is a thing of the past, although the level of wealth is not as good as the land of fish and rice in the south of the Yangtze River for the time being, but it has undergone earth-shaking changes compared to before.

And what changed this appearance was the side-by-side king who was in charge of the military and government affairs of the 27th government.

Except for him who promulgates orders to mediate in northern Xinjiang, who else can gain the trust of the people and collect nearly a million stones of grain and grass in a short period of time. "

Yunyang nodded with a complicated expression.

"Oh, my lord, although he was not the one who led the Northern Expedition, what he did for the Northern Expedition far surpassed me as the commander-in-chief of the three armies.

Since he entered the dynasty, he has been committed to the unification of the world.

Now it seems that the prince has never forgotten his original intention!

There are such important ministers in the state, so there is no reason for prosperity.

It's just, so majestic."

"Master, what did you say?"

"It's nothing, it's just a bit of a sigh.

It has been eight years, from the beginning of the second year of Rui'an until now, and for eight years, my dragon has fought every year.

Conquering the Western Regions, regaining Hetao, losing land in Heshuo, conquering the Jin and Tu countries three times, and now it is the fourth Northern Expedition, if they can no longer unify the world.

I don't know if Ruizong's heyday can last for a few more years.

In addition, An Jianghe, the Marquis of Ninghai in Shanghai, patrolled the Western Ocean four times, although he dispatched fleets from time to time to transport the trade proceeds back to the imperial court to fill the treasury.

But all the money wasted in the early stage.

If we can't fulfill our lifelong wish of unifying the world this time, I'm afraid we will have no face to face two generations of emperors after death. "

"Don't be discouraged, Commander. As long as the follow-up food and grass are safe, it will only be a matter of time before my great dragon dominates the world."

"I hope, based on what you reported, the follow-up food and grass will arrive soon.

In this way, immediately send a letter to the generals of the various ministries to prepare them for the in-depth battle of the army.

Even if the Turks cannot be conquered with swordsmen, they must be completely expelled from the north of Yinshan Mountain, and they will never come back again to cause harm to our Dalong frontier. "

"Order!"

After Zhang Kuang left, Dongfang Ming looked at Yunyang hesitantly: "Commander, there is enough food and grass, how long do you think it will take to end the Turkic war?

Do you want to send a letter to the court to inform?Let the imperial court prepare for a large-scale relocation of people? "

Yunyang squinted his eyes and hesitated for a while: "As soon as the food and grass arrive, we will go deep to chase the enemy. Now we occupy two-thirds of the territory in the southwest of the Turkic Grassland, not far from Yinshan Mountain.

May of the next year shall be the standard, and March shall be omitted.

Strive to end the Turkic war around March. "

"But we have dispersed our troops and stationed in the major cities of the Kingdom of Jin. Isn't it a little risky for the current troops to be in March?"

"Did you forget that we actually have [-] elite soldiers to mobilize nearby?"
