Prince of Chaos

Chapter 552 Talking about Sal Hu

Speaking of Juniper, one has to mention the famous Battle of Salhu!
Juniper also participated in this extremely tragic Battle of Salhu!

Moreover, Juniper was only one step away from winning at that time.

If the information obtained by Juniper at that time was detailed enough, maybe he would have succeeded in taking down the Jilin Cliff outside Jiefan City, and thus head straight for Nurhachi's lair, Hetuala!

If this is the case, the ending of the Battle of Salhu might be different.

Unfortunately, at that time, Juniper only got the information that Jiefan City was guarded by Houjin soldiers, but he knew nothing about the information that a large number of Houjin soldiers were transferred to Jiefan City. The dangerous situation of being isolated and helpless made the battle of Sarhu take a sharp turn, laying the seeds of disaster for the subsequent defeat.

Coupled with the political environment at the time, the imperial court has been urging the frontline soldiers to make a quick decision and get rid of Hou Jin as soon as possible.

It was precisely because of the inaccurate intelligence, the urging from the rear, and the combat strategy of the front-line generals fighting on their own that led to the tragedy of the Battle of Saarhu.

Juniper and other generals of the late Ming Dynasty all died in the battle of Sarhu, which has become an eternal regret.

Since then, Daming has completely lost the entire Liaodong, which made Nurhachi's Houjin completely gain a foothold in Liaodong, and became a confidant of Daming.

Until Emperor Chongzhen was hanged in Meishan, the war situation in Liaodong did not get a little respite. Instead, it was increasingly draining the potential of this ancient empire, which caused the internal collapse of the Ming Dynasty due to the ravages of the Little Ice Age and the continuous increase in Liao's salary. , Bandits are rampant.

However, the Guan Ning army, who was placed with high hopes by Emperor Chongzhen, finally became a traitor who turned on and off, and completely pushed the already dying Han Dynasty into a situation where it would never be restored.

Now, after Zhu Changluo's layout in Liaodong, the probability of the Battle of Salhu happening is almost zero.

Nurhachi is still battered on the Korean battlefield, and he doesn't know where his hope lies.

On the land of Liaodong, Zhu Changluo successively created several forces to maintain a delicate balance.Even if Nurhachi returns from North Korea now, he may not have another chance to dominate Liaodong.

Therefore, for generals like Juniper, Zhu Changluo only needs to examine their current and past achievements, and there is no need to add personal emotions to judge their gains and losses in the original historical time and space.

If Zhu Changluo brought those emotions into the current political and military arrangements, then he would be a mentally handicapped young man.

Therefore, as a mature politician and superior, Zhu Changluo should consider more about the actual situation now.

As a traditional family of generals, the Du family's historical evaluation has not caught up with "Dong Li Xima", but this does not mean that the Du family is inferior to them.

The Du family was also a pillar-like existence in the Wanli Dynasty and the Apocalypse Chongzhen Dynasty after that.

For example, Du Wenhuan, Juniper's nephew, is also a fierce man.He was the last strong general who regained the Hetao area in the late Ming Dynasty.

The Hetao area has always been the key to measuring whether the Central Plains dynasty can control the grasslands in the north.

Because Zhu Qizhen, the god of war of the Ming Dynasty, went abroad to study, the elite of the Ming Dynasty was wiped out, although when Emperor Xianzong became Emperor Chenghua, he once again recovered the Hetao area.

However, this recovery did not last long. When Emperor Xiaozong Hongzhi made a mistake in his decision-making, Hetao was gained and lost again.

In the next 100 years, the Mongolian tribe relied on the Hetao land to constantly harass the north of Ming Dynasty.

As a result, Daming had to step up and control the nine towns in the north layer by layer, but the fundamental problem still could not be solved.

The Mongolian tribes went south and went south, and robbed and robbed, so that Ming Dynasty has been in this kind of anxious and exhausting war for more than 100 years, and it did not stop until the death of Ming Dynasty.

Therefore, Du Wenhuan's achievement in regaining Hetao is definitely worthy of recognition.

But the only regret is that it was too late.

The recovery of Hetao could not reverse the decline of the Ming Dynasty. The Ming Dynasty still walked into the dust of history and became a dynasty that later generations deplore.

This time, Zhu Changluo wanted to use Du's school to train them in advance.

When the national power of Ming Dynasty is restored, Zhu Changluo will also slash the Western Regions like Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, send troops to the north, and reproduce the historical feat of Wei Huo sealing the wolf and living in Xu and breaking through the gap in Helan Mountain!

Shen Sixiao and the others don't understand military affairs, but when they heard Zhu Changluo say Juniper, they immediately said without hesitation: "Your Highness is wise. Juniper can be the commander-in-chief of Changping."

Li Chengliang also bowed, expressing his approval of Zhu Changluo's proposal.

However, Zhu Changluo said at this time: "Junipong has a fierce temper and needs to be tempered. He can only act as the commander-in-chief of Changping Town, and cannot let him take charge directly. He still needs someone to take care of him after he arrives in Changping Town."

"Ji County is where the original Ji Town is located. The strength of the new army in Ji County has also been verified in actual combat. Yang Sui and others have also shown extraordinary military talent and military execution. Therefore, it is necessary for the new army in Ji County to also defend Changping. , Yang Sui is the supreme officer, and Juniper's actions in Changping are subject to orders from Ji County."

After Shen Sixiao and others listened to Zhu Changluo's words, they immediately bowed again: "Your Highness is wise."

Zhu Changluo said: "Okay, since that's the case, this matter is settled. Li Qing, you can go back and post the paper now. Transfer Juniper to Changping Town as the acting commander-in-chief, and make Yang Sui the highest officer of Changping Town, Jixian County."

Li Chengliang paid homage: "I obey the order."

Then, Li Chengliang withdrew.

At this moment, Shen Sixiao, Dong Qichang and Liu Pinru were left in the hall.

Zhu Changluo continued to give instructions to the three of them: "Changping Town is also rotten this time, and I am very disappointed. How can such a military town take on the heavy responsibility of defending the capital? This time, I have to learn from the pain and take Changping Town together. changed."

"Now there are already successful cases of the Jixian New Army, so I decided to let the Military Aircraft Department take the lead this time, with Shen Qing and Mr. Dong as the officers, and reorganize the guards in Changping Town according to the standards of the Jixian New Army."

"I don't want to see a decayed and dilapidated military town under Gu's eyes again, making Gu sleepless."

Shen Sixiao and Dong Qichang immediately bowed and said: "I obey the order."

After discussing these things, Zhu Changluo finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Originally, Zhu Changluo was looking for a reason to further military reforms, but he didn't expect Yu Jideng to be so aggressive, so he gave him this good opportunity when he came up.

Now, Zhu Changluo seized this opportunity immediately, and he wanted to take the opportunity to change Changping Town as well.

In this way, after the reform of Changping Town is completed, the army that Zhu Changluo can control will exceed [-]!

Although these [-] soldiers are nothing to the entire Nine Frontiers Town, the fighting power of these [-] new troops is by no means comparable to that of the [-] Guardsmen.

With these [-] soldiers in hand, it would be easy for Zhu Changluo to reform any of the important towns on the nine borders.

Therefore, Zhu Changluo must strengthen the role of direct leadership this time, skipping the Ministry of War and letting the Military Aircraft Department carry out the matter.

Only in this way can Zhu Changluo lead the new army in Ji County and Changping Town more closely and directly, and thus become the real master in the eyes of this group of new army!
