lied to Kangxi

Chapter 249 The Arrogant Jade Pillar

According to Kangxi's plan, Ma Qi has already set off for Nerchinsk.

That's right, it is the Nerchinsk that signed the "Treaty of Nerchinsk", and the Raksha State is called Nerchinsk.

Nerchinsk is one of the most important military fortresses for the Raksha Kingdom to attack the Qing Dynasty.Because, by taking a boat along the Shileka River (the northern source of Heilongjiang) to the east, you can directly enter the northeast hinterland of the Qing Dynasty, which is extremely convenient.

According to the report of Heilongjiang General Bo Ding, the Raksha Kingdom had about 500 standing musketeers and 300 Cossack bandits in Nerchinsk.

In other words, the total number of enemies is around 800.

Yuzhu knew very well that in this era without the Trans-Siberian Railway, in fact, the supply line of the Raksha Kingdom was extremely long and difficult.

As long as Nerchinsk City is captured and destroyed this time, the arrogance of the Raksha Kingdom's eastward invasion will definitely be greatly frustrated.

In winter, the Siberian Great Plain is freezing cold, and the extreme temperature can reach minus 65 degrees.

However, Yuzhu's "Ping Luocha Strategy" is to take Huo Qubing's method of attacking the Huns in the north, imitating Li Yanxue's trick of entering Caizhou at night, taking Nerchinsk City in one fell swoop and annihilating the Raksha thieves.

Kangxi had fought the Battle of Yaksa, so he knew very well that the spring and autumn in Heilongjiang were exceptionally rainy.

At this time, troops were sent to Nerchinsk, and the roads along the way were muddy and muddy, and it was difficult to transport heavy artillery up.

However, the vicinity of Nerchinsk in winter is extremely cold.The pack horses that dragged the heavy artillery would definitely not be able to survive the severe cold at night, and would freeze to death directly.

To be honest, if Yuzhu hadn't constructively proposed the ingenious plan of using the Northeast silly dog ​​to drag the sled cannon, Kangxi would hardly have the determination to fight back against the Raksha gang.

Kangxi is a famous commander. Last year, he had ordered General Bo Ding of Heilongjiang to send a dozen or so Northeast idiots to Yaksa City to see if they were really resistant to freezing.

As a result, Bo Ding replied that the dozen or so groups of silly dogs spent the winter outdoors safely.

In this way, Kangxi had a bottom line in his heart, and immediately made up his mind to let Yuzhu go for it.

In addition, Kangxi also had selfish intentions in letting Yuzhu lead troops to Luocha Kingdom.

Yuzhu is not as good as the weak crown, he is already a third-rank noble and fourth-rank official, and it is already very difficult to be promoted.

However, it is also difficult to be promoted.

Lord Huang Kao Shunzhi set a death rule, non-clan members without military merits are not allowed to confer titles above the second rank.

The so-called titles above the second rank refer to barons, viscounts, earls, marquises and dukes.Among them, Gonghou Bo belongs to the title of Super Grade.

As long as Yuzhu successfully captured Nerchinsk and displayed the military and national prestige of the Qing Dynasty, Kangxi would not mind granting him a third-class baron or even a third-class viscount at all.

Hehe, Huo Qubing, who is not as good as the weak crown, is also a great auspicious!

Ma Qi, the imperial envoy, was nothing more than Kangxi's strategy to paralyze the Raksha people.

Because, Ma Qi has always maintained that the area west and north of Yaksa is really too cold, and there is no human habitation for hundreds of miles.

It is tasteless to eat, and it is not a pity to discard it. The Qing Dynasty should not use troops, and peace should be the most important thing.

Ma Qi and Yu Zhu acted separately, one civil and one military, without interfering with each other.

If Ma Qi could stop the Rakshasa gang from continuing to harass the Qing Dynasty, there would be no need for Yuzhu to fight.

Of course, this was just Kangxi's plan. Yu Zhu had already made up his mind that Nerchinsk City must be attacked.

The recruits who had just entered the Wuwei camp quickly learned to obey under the double pressure of military sticks and hungry meals.

Yuzhu's rule of the army has always been a combination of grace and power.Those who are obedient will be rewarded with meat, and those who are unruly will be spanked with a military stick, and they will be hungry for a few meals.

However, after a few days of training three times a day, Yuzhu still overestimated the quality of the bannerman "Yu Ding" of the Han army.

A total of 240 six bannermen were recruited, and there were nearly 100 of them. They couldn't bear the hardships in the barracks, and they cried and wanted to go home.

Hehe, this fell right into Yuzhu's arms, he immediately pretended to be very angry, wrote a memorial to Kangxi, and vomited a lot of bitterness.

In view of Yuzhu's consistent good performance, and Kangxi also knew the depravity of the bannerman, he allowed Yuzhu to choose recruits from the green battalion in Beijing.

Kangxi was still very wary of the Han people in the south, but Yuzhu was actually satisfied with being able to choose soldiers from the green battalion.

Lv Wu led people to select more than 200 young and strong green battalion soldiers, 150 of them belonged to fill the vacancies of soldiers, and the additional [-] belonged to foster soldiers.

Those who raise soldiers are also reserve soldiers.

The treatment of the Wuwei battalion is not as good as that of the forward battalion, but it is much better than the green battalion.

According to the military system of the Qing Dynasty, among the green battalion soldiers, horse soldiers were paid 2 liang a month, soldiers were paid [-] liang or [-] qian a month, and guard soldiers were paid [-] liang a month.

In fact, due to the rampant corruption and embezzlement by the officers of the Green Camp, the guards received at most seven hundred cash per month, and the rice they were given was only a bucket and a half.

With such poor treatment, there is no way to compare it with Wuweiying.

Not to mention anything else, the three liang of silver a month in the Wuwei camp alone is enough to attract the green camp soldiers to vote one after another.

What's more, in the Wuwei camp, three dendrobium rice are distributed every month.One dendrobium is five dou, one dou is ten liters, and three dendrobium is 150 liters.

Not to mention anything else, the 150 liters of rice alone would be enough to feed a family of five if distributed properly.

After the personnel re-arrived, everyone was in intense training.

Today's Western countries are generally popular tall hats.However, Yuzhu was worried that Kangxi would be taboo to imitate Xiyi, so he deliberately changed it to a military cap with a large brim.

No one has ever seen a military cap with a big brim, and the Manchu officials in the court couldn't buckle the caps with the inside and outside barbarians.

Yu Zhu rode on a horse, wearing a Western-style hat with a large brim, a straight gray military uniform, a long knife hanging from a cowhide belt around his waist, and special long riding boots, and began to routinely patrol the barracks three times a day.

Hey, Yu Zhu was already extremely handsome, and wearing a new style of military uniform, the energy of the whole person is simply amazing!
In the barracks where there are three training sessions a day, there is a lot of vitality.

Yuzhu rode on the horse, strolling slowly while carefully observing everyone's training situation.

Uh huh, bringing the new with the old is indeed a magic weapon for quickly forming an army.

It's only been a month, and the queue training has already taken shape.

On the way, Yuzhu randomly picked a row of soldiers and ordered loudly: "Attention everyone, stand at attention and turn back!"

I saw that the soldiers turned around neatly, and when they put their legs together, they made dull slaps from their heels.

Yuzhu nodded in satisfaction. There is competition and there is progress. He has already dropped the bait and is waiting for the sub-projectors to take the bait.

"Ten steps forward!" Yuzhu ordered again, and saw this row of soldiers walking forward.

However, one soldier was half a beat too late, making the whole line crooked and extremely ugly.

"Drag it on, beat the three armies with sticks." Yu Zhu gave the order to spank his ass unceremoniously.

Sweat more in peacetime, bleed less in wartime!

Line infantry, above all, organized and disciplined.Especially the first row of soldiers, the death rate is astonishingly high, as long as they don't flinch, they are true warriors.

In addition to the soldiers who dare to fight, there are many logistical support tasks that need to be taken care of by Yuzhu.

Three hundred musketeers, plus three hundred artillery armor, a small team of more than 600 people in total, according to the standard of five people per car, at least [-] special sled cars are needed.

Among them, 130 sled vehicles were loaded with soldiers, and the remaining vehicles were loaded with food, charcoal, firewood, etc.

Yuzhu was going to kill the Raksha devils, not Nerchinsk to die, so he considered it very carefully.

Siberia in winter is freezing cold. If you need to cut wood for fire on the way, it will not only seriously affect the efficiency of the march, but also the wet wood is difficult to ignite.

In addition, when marching in winter, just for the problem of drinking water, dozens of large iron pots need to be prepared in advance.

As for the problem of getting water, there is thick snow, so there is no need to worry.

In short, when the army is traveling, and Yu Zhu is a military rookie, there are too many issues to consider, involving all aspects.

According to past practice, when the Qing Dynasty dispatched a soldier, at least five civilian husbands were needed to assist them.

This time, since it was a battle of muskets and cannons, the fewer civilians accompanying them, the better, so as not to consume too much and waste the extremely rare food.

Therefore, Yuzhu planned to train his soldiers on how to drive the sled after the heavy snowfall in the capital.

This time, Kangxi made great determination and ordered Neiku to take out [-] catties of pig iron and make the skateboards of the sled day and night.

It's just that the gang of grandchildren in the Ministry of Internal Affairs want money and don't want their lives. They even dare to ask for benefits in the matter of Yuzhu.

When Lu Wu took people to get the sleds and skateboards, the people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs found excuses to prevaricate them, and they were all in vain.

As soon as Yuzhu heard it, he knew that the people from the Armed Forces Academy were waiting for him to negotiate.

"Master Yu, logically speaking, you are the doctor in charge of our Ministry of Internal Affairs, and you belong to us. However, the old rules have been established for decades, and I don't dare to corrupt you indiscriminately. Otherwise, how can you go up to the top?" What about the confession?" Hu Tabu, the doctor of the Armed Forces Institute, looked like a dead pig not afraid of boiling water, and opened his mouth to ask Yuzhu for benefits.

Yuzhu smiled and said: "Then when the emperor returns to Beijing, when I play chess with you, will you tell the emperor like this?"

This is the threat of Chiguoguo!

Unexpectedly, Hutabu was not afraid at all. He raised his face and said lightly: "Master Yu, I am not afraid of your jokes. The emperor knows these old rules. But, Mr. Yu, you are a second-class shrimp who is so red and purple." , and brought soldiers to go to battle. The meaning of the above is that the loss due should be halved."

"Cough, Lord Yu, to tell you the truth, this means that you are always going out in person. If it were someone else, you would have to be a big brother." Hutabu's explanation made Yu Zhu laugh.

These grandsons, knowing that Yu Zhu was a big celebrity in front of the imperial court and a son of Tong's family, still dared to blatantly blackmail, obviously they were not afraid of going to court with the emperor.

There was drift in the former Ming Dynasty, and there was loss in the Qing Dynasty. It is a convention to collect black money!
If it was another yamen, Yuzhu would have done it directly in front of Kangxi.

But the House of Internal Affairs is different, even if Yu Zhu kills Hutabu, he still shouts Tabu.

"Halving is still too much, [-]% of the receivable loss, no more." Yu Zhu said coldly, "If it exceeds [-]%, then don't blame me for being rude. Others can't kill you, so cut off your head , it's still fine."

The big red man in front of the emperor is so arrogant!

As a result, after Hutabu went to discuss later, he only charged [-]% of the loss as never before.
