Back to Ming Dynasty with Industrial Revolution System

Chapter 263 Telegram
After returning to Liaodong, the troops of the Liao army who conquered the central grasslands temporarily recuperated and did not continue to conquer.

Chu Yun could be regarded as powerless. During this year, the Liao army went on campaigns everywhere, and the war potential was emptied, and there were many vacancies in the arsenal.It needs to be produced and accumulated again in order to wage war.

If the spies of the Ming army knew that the Liao army was short of ammunition, they might put all their eggs in one basket to overthrow Liaodong before the Liao army recovered.It's a pity that the material situation in the arsenal is top-secret information, and the spies of the Ning Yuan Army cannot obtain this important information.

Every month, news from the five major regions of Liaodong, Liaonan, the Prairie, the Heilongjiang River Basin, and the Ryukyu Islands will be continuously sent to the military headquarters where Chu Yun is located.

The military department has organizations in Liaodong City and Jinzhou. Basically, wherever Chu Yun is, the main officials of the military department will follow.

"The Pioneering Group said that they had heard about Houjin's remnant Hauge and others. They were suspected of fleeing to Mobei. I don't know if the Mobei tribe took them in, or did they flee further west?" Chu Yun was quite surprised to receive the report from Sakhalin Island.

"Master, do we want to send a cavalry unit to Mobei to pursue Hou Jin's remnants?" asked the officer of the military department.

This is the confidence of a strong army!Even if the opponent fled to the ends of the earth, they dared to send a cavalry to conquer!
"Forget it. These fugitives are just making the last struggle. Whether they can come back is a matter of opinion. Besides, with their small number of people, can they return to Liaodong to rebuild the Dajin Kingdom?" Chu Yun said disdainfully.

When Dorgon and the others come back, the Liao army may have unlocked the armored vehicles. When the torrent of steel will directly flatten the entire Mobei and Siberia, it doesn't matter how many soldiers and horses they bring back. The only thing waiting for them is the fate of being crushed.

"What the military leader said is true. A group of exiles have nothing to worry about. We sent cavalry to hunt them down and waste our troops and food. Haha." The officials in the military department all laughed.

In their eyes, the fugitive Hauge and the others were useless.

"Now our army has pacified the grasslands of Inner Mongolia, and all the areas south of Heilongjiang are under our control. The next step for our army is the three major tribes in Mobei, right? There are still hundreds of thousands of people there." The army officer in the army took the initiative to ask Chu Yun for a job, and set the next target in Mobei.

"The army is still resting and replenishing its troops recently. There will be no war in the short term. You are fighting well, but the Ordnance Bureau provides you with a steady stream of ammunition and equipment, which almost breaks their hearts. The officials of the Ordnance Bureau can More than once, he complained to me about the frequent actions of the military department." But Chu Yun dismissed the army's idea of ​​continuing to expand.

Seeing that the cold winter is coming again, and the northern continent is frozen for thousands of miles, it will be more difficult to carry out military operations. It is better to recuperate, replenish ammunition, and wait for a stronger army to start pushing the East Asian continent.

"Is the army going to stop fighting?" Mrs. Yang couldn't help being dumbfounded when she heard that the army department she was in was going to stop fighting for a while. "Then I will be transferred to the navy department to participate in the operations against the Nanyang Islands."

"Fuck you, don't try to get involved in anything. The Ministry of the Army has given me a good training during this period. It may come in handy at some point. I hope that next year's infantry will be more energetic. It is best to have an infantry There are now two infantry brigades, you know?" Chu Yun couldn't help being angry.

The Ministry of the Army estimates that there will be no special strategic goals for a period of time, but this does not mean that there are no adjustments.Chu Yun selected a group of strong tribesmen from the hundreds of tribes in the East China Sea Jurchen in the Heilongjiang River Basin, and some of them were incorporated into the Siberia Pioneering Regiment to strengthen the influence of the Liao Army in the Heilongjiang River Basin.

The other part formed the Mountain Battalion, which was directly under the command of the Ministry of War.These fishing and hunting peoples in the Daxing'an Mountains and other mountains are familiar with the mountains and forests, and they are suitable as embryos for mountain warfare.In the Nanyang Islands, there are still no unclaimed mountains and forests in many places. To control the Nanyang area, it is necessary for the mountain battalion to cooperate with the marines to carry out landing operations.

In the plan of the military department, the naval fleet is responsible for destroying the enemy's sea power, the marine troops go ashore to seek the enemy's main force for a decisive battle, and the mountain battalion searches for the enemy's resistance force that fled into the island and forest, completely defeating the enemy's will to resist .With such three terrifying forces in hand, it is only a matter of time before the islands in the Nanyang region are swept away.

"The mountain camp has recruited 1746 people, of which 5% are from the East China Sea Jurchen tribe, 3% are from the Haixi Jurchen tribe, and 2% are from Liaodong and Liaonan. According to the scheduled training plan, after they learn how to use firearms, they will send Go to the island of the Ryukyu Guard for mountain training." People from the military department reported to Chu Yun the formation of the mountain battalion.

The reason why this mountain force did not conduct training in the Greater Khingan Mountains, but was specially sent to the Ryukyu Islands for special training is mainly because the climate and vegetation of the Ryukyu Islands are more similar to those of the Nanyang Islands, and they are familiar with the climate there in advance, so as to control the East China Sea and Nanyang next year. Preparations for sea routes.

"Almost 2000 people are enough. If there are more people, both the Ministry of the Interior and the Ordnance Bureau will complain." Chu Yun nodded.

Now that winter is coming, it is time to make all kinds of intense preparations for the next year's action, so it is not that there is nothing to do.Or there are more things to do than Chu Yun wants.

In the following year, the fleet that went south to Nanyang was still growing. Every month, ships were launched for trial voyage and then handed over to the Ministry of the Navy.Some ships that were severely damaged by storms and pirates when going south to Miyako Island were repaired.Various ammunition and supplies are also being produced.Some newly produced guns replaced the old guns on some ships to increase the lethality of naval ships.

But it's not just the Ministry of the Navy that is frantically expanding its military, and wants to be the vanguard of the Liao Army's outward expansion.The Academy of Sciences of the Liao Army has also been working hard to improve its presence recently.

For example, the first practical telegraph line built by the power supply bureau has been set up.The world's first practical telegraph line is neither in Liaodong City nor in Jinzhou City in southern Liaoning, but in Gaizhouwei, where the first railway was born!
The purpose of this telegraph route was not only as an experimental route, but also to facilitate railway communication.Between Gaizhou Station and Tieshan Station, the train running time can be coordinated by telegram!
"Master, the first telegram jointly built by our Academy of Sciences and the Power Supply Bureau has been completed, please come to Gaizhouwei to receive the first telegram in history!" Faraday from the Academy of Sciences came to Chu Yun excitedly.
