Daming: The most ruthless tyrant in history

Chapter 464 Military Intelligence

"kill!"

"kill!"

Deafening shouts resounded through the sky, and the Hunhe Camp was filled with densely packed black people. The school grounds were scattered everywhere, and a chilling atmosphere filled the air.

"Yes, after a round of inspection, the morale of the various units in Hunhe Camp is good."

On a high ground, Xiong Tingbi, who was wearing armor and carrying a sword, showed a smile on his cold face, "Although it is still winter, the training of all departments has not slackened off. Very good. When these new soldiers complete their winter training, we will wait until spring comes." , if Jianlu dares to invade the Liaozuo frontier again, I will never let him off lightly!"

The accompanying generals and colonels all dropped their doubts when they saw their governor smiling, and many of the generals and colonels even had smiles on their faces.

"Superintendent, are you planning to counterattack Jianlu?"

He Shixian, who was standing with a sword in hand, looked at Xiong Tingbi with a grin, "If this is the case, then the general will have to ask for a battle first. Since Guangning returned to Shenyang, the general has been training in the Hunhe Camp. Traveling to places like Yilu, Puhe, Fushun, Crow Pass and other places, we often fight with the small forces of Jianlu, and the generals and others can only watch helplessly. This feeling is so damn uncomfortable!"

"Yes!"

A deputy chief military officer followed closely and said: "There were several times when we could have counterattacked and even recaptured Tielingwei, Kaiyuan, Liaohaiwei and other places in one fell swoop, but there was no follow-up movement..."

"Then tell me what should I use to fight?"

Xiong Tingbi glared and reprimanded: "The Ming Dynasty won the final victory in the Liaozuo battle. We severely defeated the arrogance of the Jianlu in various battlefields, but don't fucking forget, our losses are not small, and the pensions of various ministries must be dealt with. The refugees in various places need to be resettled, the wasteland is cleared in various places and they need money and food, and the guard stations in various places need to be stabilized. You fucking want to unite the troops to fight, but who has clearly calculated the accounts behind this?"

"In the past year, both the Liaodong Governor's Mansion and the Liaodong Governor's Mansion have tightened their belts. Even so, there's still not enough food, let alone the more than 50,000 people in Hunhe Camp. Open your mouth, and the amount of military rations you eat every day is extremely amazing!!"

"A war can be fought just by talking? Let me ask you, let's not talk about the mobilization of other troops and horses, just talk about the various departments, camps and schools of the Hunhe Camp. If I really let them all go out, it will consume every day. How much food? How much loss will it take to transport it to various places?"

When Xiong Tingbi said this, the deputy chief military officer laughed, and all the other generals and colonels who wanted to fight, one by one, shut their mouths.

In the past year, since the end of the Battle of Liaozuo, Liaodong has been in a state of recuperation. There are too many things that need to be solved and sorted out. This is to clarify the governor's office and the governor's office successively, and clearly divide the military and political boundaries of Liaodong. , Xiong Tingbi was in charge of one stall, Hong Chengchou was in charge of another stall, and Liu Hongxun was added to patrol Liaodong. Only in this way can the hidden dangers in Liaodong be sorted out one by one effectively.

"How is the training of the First Musket Association going now?"

Xiong Tingbi looked into the distance with his deep eyes, and said to He Shixian standing next to him: "Counting the time, have you been practicing for almost half a year? If you haven't practiced yet, if nothing else, they will all be sorry to Your Majesty. I hope that the new muskets from Gyeonggi will be closely allocated to our Liaodong New Army. The few elite troops in the capital and Gyeonggi also have our Liaodong New Army. This is not given without reason."

"The first musketeers practiced well."

He Shixian said with a serious expression: "We are all familiar with the line tactics created by His Majesty. The two targets under the jurisdiction of the First Musket Association, the combat power they unleashed in daily drills is astonishing."

"Speaking of this line tactic, it's really amazing. Just one musket firing in a row. With the new muskets currently in use, if they are really sent to the battlefield, they will definitely be able to catch the enemy by surprise."

"You need to actually go to the battlefield to check the school." Xiong Tingbi said with a serious expression: "The first musketry association under the jurisdiction of the Liaodong New Army adopts new techniques and tactics, and many are still in the exploratory stage."

"No matter how well you perform in daily drills, if you pull your hips on the battlefield, it means nothing. If nothing else, the artillery offensive and arrow rain offensive launched by the enemy will really threaten the first musketeer on the battlefield. As an alliance, can they continue to practice as usual, even if there are constant casualties or even death in the military line, and ensure the integrity of the whole, they can still launch a strong counterattack against the enemy, this is what His Majesty wants."

He Shixian felt sad in his heart.

Among the Liaodong New Army under his command, the First Musket Association is the most special. It does not have heavy armor protection. The entire Association is equipped with light cotton armor, equipped with an armed belt, and carries a standard bayonet. It serves as a fully-organized musketry army. , they must ensure mobility and be able to rush to the battlefield they want to go to as quickly as possible, and after arriving on the battlefield, they must quickly deploy their formation to ensure the expected fire suppression.

Even in the heat of the war, when they are required to charge forward as sharp knives, no matter how great their losses are, they must ensure fire suppression to tear apart the enemy's lines!

This is very different from the fire gun soldiers of the past.

Not being afraid of death is the key to being selected into the First Association of Musketeers.

"Wait a minute."

Xiong Tingbi sighed softly and said: "We will find a suitable time in the spring and ask the First Musket Association to participate in the battle with Jianlu. I hope the casualties will be smaller by then."

As a team exploring the new military system, the First Musket Association's military exploits on the battlefield are different from other battalions. They pay more attention to collective military exploits, but do not pay attention to individual military exploits. After all, if they really want to harvest the enemy's heads, then the muskets The advantage of the first association is gone.

That's right. Behind high casualties must be high rewards. Anyone who enters the first musketry league, whether a general or a soldier, as long as they make military exploits on the battlefield, will be faster than other battalions!

No innovation in the military system or tactics can cover up the high casualties during exploration. This is the fundamental reason why war is a meat grinder that specializes in grinding out middle- and lower-level generals and lower-level soldiers, because they rely on them to fight the war. Yes, in order to achieve the predetermined tactics, the commander will never be soft-hearted.

"Da da da…"

The chaotic sound of horse hooves sounded at this moment, and a cavalryman was seen galloping towards him.

Something is wrong.

Xiong Tingbi frowned slightly when he saw this scene.

"Report!! Urgent report from Crow Falcon!!"

After hearing this, He Shixian and other generals all had serious expressions. Faced with countless gazes, Xiong Tingbi took the emergency report. When he saw the contents of the emergency report, Xiong Tingbi's expression changed.

"...Jianlu mobilized a large number of troops to invade North Korea and realize the plan of plunder." Xiong Tingbi's deep eyes were fixed on the final signature, written by Li Yangeng. This made him understand that Jianlu was going to torment new people again. Something happened.
